barrytrey0430: Thank you. I shall make your suggestion canon.
fencer29: Noted. I was just compelled to make Momo do something and Tenya came to mind.
TheGreatBubbaJ: There's seven people in the Mindscape and Daisy, Harumi, Daigoro and Nana are up for it. Not only are the others outvoted, there isn't a single opposing woman to stop them.
AnimeFan13579: All Might will have the greatest impact when he says it himself.
AdrianVnz: Computer's better now!
GUIPA: Sorry, this is a KamiJirou/Electric Guitar story.
Chapter 11: It's Time to be Heroes! II
Izuku Midoriya winced as he rubbed his sore arms, wading through the lake with Tsuyu Asui and Minoru Mineta as they headed to the shore.
"I had a bowel movement this morning, so those balls will stick all day." Minoru chuckled while Tsuyu pulled him through the water.
"Mineta-kun, what are the exact ranges for your Quirk?" Izuku queried, devolving into Midoriya Mutter. "Is {Pop Off} truly sticky to anything but you? If so, how do you put on your clothes? Does it stick to your pillow or bed when you sleep? Do they magnetize or stick to each other? Can you change the shape, weight or size? Are they conductive to or resistant against-"
"And suddenly I'm very sure that Little Ninth knows more about Minoru's Quirk than the owner himself." Daigoro Banjo (a.k.a. Lariat) muttered.
"Interesting. If it was conductive to either heat or electricity, it would go quite far." Harumi Kiyama deduced. "It's already proven itself waterproof in the lake."
"Midoriya-chan, stop analyzing Mineta-chan's Quirk." Tsuyu interrupted. Izuku stopped, looking at her in sudden surprise. Tsuyu turned towards him now that the Midoriya Mutter had ended. "Instead of doing that right now, shouldn't we think about our next move?"
"You're right." Izuku agreed as he climbed out of the water and held out a hand to help Minoru. "We should make getting help our top priority. It would be best to follow the shore and avoid the central plaza as we head toward the exit."
"That's true. Aizawa-sensei and Master Breaker have definitely drawn a large number of villains to the plaza." Tsuyu agreed.
Several dust explosions appeared in the distance at the plaza, far away from where the kids were where the two Pro Heroes were fighting.
Izuku grimaced as it was too distant for {Danger Sense} to pick up their presences consciously. 'But there are too many villains. Since these guys had underwater gear, I can safely assume that they were teleported there before or right as they arrived, meaning that all those villains in the plaza are all concentrated on Master Breaker and Eraser Head.'
Izuku gritted his teeth before saying, "Eraser Head's overdoing it. While Gran Torino must have trained Master Breaker accordingly, Eraser Head himself simply won't have the stamina to keep up."
"Wait. Don't tell me you're suggesting…" Minoru gasped. "Are you trying to get us killed or something?"
"I'm not thinking of doing anything that'll get in their way or endanger you two." Izuku explained in finer details. "But if we can just find an opening and lessen their load, even a little..."
"Bastard, get off!"
"Stop moving, you shits!"
"Ah, I almost forgot! We shouldn't leave those guys conscious just to be safe." Izuku turned towards the villains still in the lake. Idly noticing that the yacht had completely sunk, Izuku stepped forward and held his hand over the water.
"[Railgun: 2, 000 Volt Charge!]"
An enormous bolt of green lightning seared the water, electrifying the villains several times over. By the time it ended, both the villains and the lake were steaming.
"Why didn't you use that earlier?!" Minoru wailed.
"I still don't have enough control over {Railgun}." Izuku replied while flexing his fingers. "If I did this on the yacht, not only would I electrify us as well thanks to the metal boat, but we wouldn't have been able to escape."
Izuku pointed out their wet clothes. "As you can see, Asu- Tsuyu-chan couldn't completely clear the lake in one jump."
"I see." Tsuyu acquiesced while Minoru sighed. "In that case, that was a good call, Iinchou-kero."
Izuku nodded. "Now then, let's go."
A yellow bolt of human shaped lightning blitzed all over, punching villains at high speed. Denki Kaminari bared his teeth as he double kicked a large villain in the chest, shocking and sending him crashing into another villain. He'd never been so grateful for Izuku's tips on his Quirk usage as he did now.
Nearby, Momo Yaoyorozu and Kyoka Jiro were taking down any villains that Denki missed with weapons created from Momo's Quirk.
"These guys weren't down at the plaza!" Denki yelled as he made his way to Momo and Kyoka. "Where'd they come from?!"
"Stop your screaming. It's really annoying right now!" Kyoka remarked, standing in the center of their formation as the three were backed against a cliff, her eyes darting back and forth between the villains in front of them, a serious 'pissed-off' expression on her face while Momo's expression was one of stern determination and Denki looked like he was stuck between confident and terrified.
"Right now, we need to focus on getting away from these enemies." Momo stated, her head clearly still on her shoulders.
"Then pull out a weapon for me, too!" Denki loudly requested. "I need more variations beyond tap and zap!"
"You're the electric guy, aren't you?" Kyoka stated. "Hurry up and zap 'em all!"
"I told you during the combat training, didn't I? We were paired up! I can only cover myself with electricity! I can discharge electricity, but it's not like I can control it! I'll hit you two, too!" Denki explained to them. "It's only thanks to Midoriya that he gave me the tip to electro-stimulate my body and increase my physical attributes!"
'Ah, so that's why there's some confidence in him instead of complete terror.' Momo mulled as she beat another villain back with her metal quarterstaff.
"You're a man, aren't you?" Kyoka sighed. "Stop whining."
Denki groaned before dodging a sudden punch and blasting forward and embedding his fist and started to shock the villain with his electric aura, who let out gurgles and cries of pain from the electricity coursing through him.
"Stop messing around, kid!" A villain yelled at him, throwing a giant rock at them with elongated arm. "Try shocking solid rock!"
Kyoka plugged one of her earphone jacks into her boot, and blasted out a soundwave which destroyed the boulder. Denki watched it happen and caught the now empty arm with his free hand, causing him to be electrified as well.
A third villain tried to jump Denki, but Momo threw a created net at him and captured him, making him fall into Denki's electricity as well.
"Your super speed is all nice and all, but couldn't you have asked for something to help you aim in your costume order?!" Kyoka yelled as she blasted another soundwave towards a group of villains, bringing them to their knees and rupturing their eardrums.
Unfortunately, this left her open to a hidden villain who leapt off the cliff above them and dropped towards her.
In a literal flash, Denki saved her, making sure to grab just her collar to avoid shocking her. Momo took advantage and shot a created net gun at him, disabling the villain.
"Done!" Momo shouted, causing Denki and Kyoka to look at her in concern for a moment as she crouched down, then the atom-like positive blue and negative red lights that appeared whenever she used {Creation} started to shine through the fabric of her costume's back.
"It took some time…" Momo explained as it bulged and started to rip from the size of her creation, bursting asunder as a giant white sheet emerged from her back and enveloped both Momo and Kyoka. "...to create something this big."
"A sheet?"
"Is it supposed to be a shield?"
Momo lifted the corner of the sheet and smirked at the villains as she answered their questions. "You're looking at a sheet of insulation one hundred millimeters thick. Go, Kaminari-san."
Denki, who was left outside it, grinned in understanding. "That's badass, Yaoyorozu-fukuiinchou."
"Now that the problem of friendly fire's been resolved..." He glared at the villains surrounding them and raised his hands, electricity surging all over his body. "ELECTRIFY!"
Slamming his hands downwards, the earth shattered beneath Denki's feet as he discharged an immense blast of lightning which surged far and wide enough to even reach the U.S.J.'s roof.
In the frozen Landslide Zone, Shoto Todoroki (and a hidden Toru Hagakure) turned to face the Mountain Zone as bolts of yellow lightning erupted from the ground.
"As you can see, one of my classmates clearly doesn't mind your deaths much at this point if he's releasing that much power." Shoto muttered as he got close to one of the frozen villains surrounding him. "Considering what I'm seeing, Kaminari or Midoriya must have gotten a more dangerous batch than I did."
A still free villain launched himself at Shoto, wielding a knife in his hand. Shoto stomped his right foot, creating a wave of ice that captured the villain in front of him.
A staff suddenly lunged at the boy from behind, but he dodged it as if he had eyes in the back of his head and grasped the metal pole with his right hand, ice bursting into existence on the weapon.
Toru gasped, watching how Shoto had instantly taken care of both villains in front of and behind him, freezing both of them into ice prisons.
Giving the villain behind him a dismissive glare, Shoto yanked on the pole still in his hand, upsetting the balance of the ice he'd formed to keep the villain airborne and he crashed to the ground.
"Look out!" Toru yelled as she noticed a movement hidden in one of the buildings. A villain had taken a spot to snipe Shoto only for Toru to instantly lob a rock at his head.
Shoto looked dispassionately as he watched the villain fall out and land on his head, knocking him unconscious. "Hagakure, right?"
Shoto watched the invisible girl show herself, with only her gloves and boots revealing her presence. "Hey, Todoroki-kun..."
"Stay by my left and take my arm." Shoto ordered while holding out his left arm. "I don't want to freeze you by accident."
Toru really couldn't do much but comply, seeing that he had nearly done so the moment they got warped in by Kurogiri. At least he kept releasing some heat from his left side, probably remembering that the invisible girl literally had zero protection from the cold surroundings he caused.
"Now then, I am worried about the others. Let us join them quickly." Momo uttered to Kyoka from beneath the blanket, holding it up to survey the area as Denki's attack stopped. Her costume was torn to shreds, her modesty only being protected by coincidental clouds of dust and smoke.
"You're looking a little overexposed right now!" Kyoka alerted her, causing Momo to chuckle.
"Huh? I can just make them again." Momo replied with a smile.
"Extreme growth in multiple ways…" Kyoka whispered at the sight of Momo's large boobs. Hearing footsteps coming their way, Kyoka hugged and covered Momo's front, shouting, "Kaminari, don't look this way!"
"-Whey-" The insulation sheet was pulled off, revealing a nearly shorted out Denki. "Are -whey- you -whey- gals okay?"
"Um, yes." Momo stood up with her costume fixed. "Let's gather and tie up the villains before they recover. Kaminari-san, I'm aware of your Quirk's drawback so please sit down and rest a bit before joining."
As the trio started to move, a hand broke through the rocky floor , like an undead rising from the earth, and grabbed Kyoka by her boot.
"Remember, Midoriya, we're just here to see how things are going, right?" Minoru whispered as the Shipwreck Trio peered over the edge of the lake.
"Kero..." It was just her verbal tic but Izuku nodded at Tsuyu's worried agreement.
"I know." Izuku muttered, keeping a sharp eye on Master Breaker and his teacher. "We'll leave the instant it seems dangerous."
"And if we can't do that, I'm counting on you guys." Izuku said.
"Right." Daisy agreed.
"I hope Tenko's alright..." Nana fretted.
"He'll be fine." Hikage consoled.
The villains... were almost gone? Out of the several villains that Izuku had last seen, there were only a few left, barring Anarchy and Berserker.
Anarchy hummed before suddenly dashing towards the duo. "First, it was 23 seconds."
"Eraser Head! She's coming for you!" Master Breaker yelled as he dropkicked one of the villain extras. A villain tried to stab him with a spear only for it to be grabbed and disintegrated.
"What the fuc-?!" The villain couldn't even finish his sentence as he was suddenly kneed in the face.
"The leader?!" Eraser Head gasped, sending his Binding Cloth while glaring at the approaching Anarchy.
"Then 24 seconds." Anarchy grabbed the weapon and kept running at him. "Then 20, Then 17."
Anarchy reached close and then punched at his face. Eraser Head caught the punch in his palm, wincing as he was forced back a bit from her strength then elbowed her harshly in her gut.
"It's hard to tell since your Quirk doesn't seem to work on me," Anarchy gloated as the the slime around Eraser Head's elbow started to absorb and corrode it, "but it seems that {Erasure} can only be kept active for an average of 20 seconds straight."
Eraser Head gritted his teeth then suddenly pulled away as Master Breaker slammed an axe kick on Anarchy's head.
"Not yet, bitch!" He yelled, spinning around and slapping all five fingers on Anarchy's arm. The effect was instant as the heroes, students and villain watched the blue biomass turn grey and start flaking off.
"Eraser Head, as soon as {Decay} takes her arm, turn Erasure on me." Master Breaker ordered, keeping his eyes on Anarchy. "For attacking students here, you will lose that arm as punishment!"
Anarchy hummed before the slime on her arm started to regenerate rapidly, outpacing {Decay}'s speed until it shot off the crumbling part.
Eraser Head and Master Breaker gasped in shock as they saw a clearly human arm attached to Anarchy, which was swiftly back covered up.
"Punishment? You two really crack me up!" Anarchy taunted, spreading out her arms. "Not only is Eraser Head able to keep fighting capably despite an injured arm, Master Breaker's got such a lethal Quirk!"
"Hey, Eraser Head." The Erasure Hero blinked as he was directly addressed. "It seems that you're a really good teacher. I didn't get much of those before Sensei. A smart guy like you would have known not to jump down here carelessly if not for the fact that your students' safety took priority over yours."
"And one would think," Anarchy now turned to Master Breaker, "that someone like you would go wild with their Quirk or not use it at all. I'm pleasantly surprised. Really."
Anarchy's back squirmed before shooting out four tentacles that whipped around and latched at the steps behind her. She was instantly pulled back to Berserker's side, taking a seat and crossing her legs.
"It was only brought here as a deterrent against All Might, but..." The grin with too many teeth appeared on Anarchy's face again. "Berserker."
The Nomu's muscles bulged before it roared.
"KRREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEK!"
The roar it created resounded through the entire area, striking primal fear into the Pro Heroes and the spying students.
"...we're leaving." Izuku ordered in a tight voice. Never before had {Danger Sense} blared so loudly. In fact, even without it, he'd have to be a suicidal maniac to take that on.
Tsuyu and Minoru nodded silently, with the latter silently weeping tears of relief to finally have the chance to get away from that monster.
"Use {Black Whip} to mask yourselves in the water. If you make a noise, you'll draw attention." Daigoro advised.
Izuku nodded, releasing {Black Whip} to slowly surround their lower bodies and push away the water. If they moved now, their wading wouldn't draw attention now.
Master Breaker was the first to move, dashing towards the behemoth with lethal intent. Berserker was faster, smashing his fist into Master Breaker's torso with immense force.
Master Breaker only had time to choke out a huge glob of blood and feebly graze Berserker's arm with his fingers as his body folded and practically enveloped the outstretched limb between his legs and torso.
What happened next caused Minoru to whine, Nana to scream and Izuku to partially cover his horrified expression.
The sound of the punch was more comparable to the roar of a cannon than the measly *thwack* punches produced.
A rush of air washed over Izuku, Tsuyu and Minoru hard enough to flutter their wet hair and clothes as Master Breaker was rocketed away from the point of impact with an audible blast, his body moving in a way that assured others that a lot of bones had definitely been broken.
Master Breaker smashed through a nearby tree trunk, ripping it in half. He continued to skid across the ground before his back hit another tree, and remained there motionless, hopefully unconscious than dead.
Izuku suddenly hunched over as a pink aura washed over his body, with white and indigo combating it.
"TEEEEENKOOOOO! LET GO, YOU SHITS! I'LL TEAR THEM APART! I'LL TAKE THEM TO ORBIT AND DROP 'EM!"
Nana was not in a good mood.
Berserker wailed as everyone witnessed it's arm crumbling away in a strange way. The crumbling effect seemed to go back and forth as if-
"It's regenerating?!" Eraser Head yelled in shock. "And it's potent enough to combat Breaker's Quirk?!"
"And Berserker's losing that battle." Anarchy stretched out her arm which transformed to a long bladed tentacle. She then proceeded to slice the damaged limb off. "What a troublesome Quirk. I guess a badass like him had to land one final hit before he went down."
"Super Regeneration?" Izuku questioned as the Nomu's arm proceeded to grow back at high speed, repairing bone, muscles and skin in a near instant.
Anarchy turned slightly to Izuku's position as Eraser Head glared in shock. "Worry about yourself more, Eraser Head."
Eraser Head suddenly turned to notice the Nomu had sped behind him now, hulking over him like an ogre.
Minoru choked loudly as a splash of blood flew into the air along with the broken goggles of their homeroom teacher. Eraser Head crashed into the ground, with one hand as large as his chest pressing down his back and the other grasping his corroded right arm.
Berserker wrung Eraser Head's right forearm, the sound of skin and muscles moving as it tightened and tightened its grip, until there was a *SNAP*, and the forearm bent in a way it wasn't supposed to as Eraser Head's hand dropped limp, the Pro Hero screaming in pain as his blood started to run down from beneath the Nomu's fingers.
"Aizawa-sensei..." Minoru muttered through his fingers, tears running down his cheeks in horror.
'We can't get closer, but I also can't abandon Aizawa-sensei.' Izuku reached out his hand in frustration. 'If only I could just grab him from here...'
As his hand pointed at Eraser Head, En Shimura's mist faded and One for All pulsed again with unlocked power.
""""Eh?""""
That was the reaction for all present as the teacher instantly disappeared from underneath Berserker to Izuku's grip.
"EEEEEEEEEHHHHH?!"
"AAAAAAAWWWWWW YEEEEEAHH! Finally!" En crowed. "That's my Quirk {Snatch}, Little Ninth! Let's me teleport anything I wish to my hands! Also, it works in reverse!"
"You're really happy to show up, huh?" Harumi questioned.
"What a time to unlock Sixth's Quirk." Takashi muttered.
"Let's not question it. Little Ninth, hand your teacher over to your classmates and let me take over! The villain's gonna be on you now!" Daigoro yelled.
Izuku only had time to toss Eraser Head over to Tsuyu before {Black Whip} formed a shield to block Anarchy arm which had transformed into a bludgeon. "Take sensei away, you two!"
"Midoriya-chan/Midoriya!" Tsuyu and Minoru yelled before Eraser Head's groan forced to move, especially since Anarchy was completely focused on Izuku for some reason.
"Your Quirk..." Izuku muttered, in a way to calm himself. "It functions in the same way a Klynthar does, right? Like Venom and Carnage! That's why Aizawa-sensei's arm corroded on impact when it was absorbed. The reason why {Erasure} didn't work on you... you're actually two separate people and this is one of theirs natural form!"
Eraser Head, who was still conscious enough to listen, hitched in shock. 'So that's why my Quirk didn't work and there was a human form within. Dammit, the leader was composed of a villain encasing themselves with another. But my Quirk works on all in my line of sight, so how didn't they at least separate...'
"Not bad!" Anarchy congratulated, surprising Izuku with her genial tone. "Not only did you make it into the Hero Department, but you're still as smart as ever... Deku."
Izuku hitched in shock, causing Anarchy to take advantage, breaking through his shadowy defense and wrapping his entire body in slime.
Minoru desperately clutched one of his {Pop Off} balls before lobbing it at Anarchy's head. The purple ball stuck to her face, causing a small bout of silence as the villain turned to look him in the eye... then absorbed the sticky ball into her biomass suit.
Minoru burst into terrified tears again, although that stopped when Eraser Head stumbled to his feet, shocking his student. "Release Midoriya right now!"
"Why?" Anarchy questioned before suddenly shooting an elongated fist at him. In his weakened and injured state, Eraser Head was unable to dodge or block, causing the fist to impact his face and sending him flying into Tsuyu, now fully unconscious.
"Now then." Anarchy turned back to her captive, ignoring a trembling Minoru who was gently dragged back by Tsuyu with Eraser Head now hanging from her shoulders. "You've even gotten a nice Quirk. I guess waiting was worth it after all."
Izuku desperately wanted to question who this person was that apparently knew him but at that moment, Kurogiri appeared next to her. "Anarchy."
"Kurogiri." Anarchy acknowledged. "How'd you do?"
"I put Thirteen out of action, but there were students that I was unable to disperse, and one of them was able to get away." Kurogiri summed up his situation. "Considering that, it seems that we'll have to scrap Objective #02."
Anarchy got an annoyed look on her face. "Dammit! I hate uncompleted tasks!"
Anarchy breathed before calming herself. "We can't win against multitudes of U.A.'s Pro Heroes. That was the whole point of this isolated attack anyway. Let's go."
"Eh?" Tsuyu and Minoru asked.
"However, if we can't have Berserker fight the Symbol of Peace," Anarchy tightened her grip on Izuku. "Let's smash his pride!"
"What are you planning?" Kurogiri questioned as Berserker came to his side.
"Isn't it obvious? This is mostly for my enjoyment but," Anarchy brought Izuku close so that she could rub her face against his, "let's take this one with us."
That was the limit.
Izuku burst out of his slime prison, growing as {Pump Up} activated. Thankfully. U.A's sport uniform was really sturdy and didn't shred like his school uniform.
But that paled to the aura that rolled of Izuku.
There was a wave of unsettlement as Izuku burst with a crimson aura of power, his glowing red eyes with black sclerae filled with righteous rage.
"Another Quirk?" Anarchy questioned in surprise. "This- This can't be right."
"You said you were going to take him." Izuku(Alex) growled, with his deep voice rumbling with blatant wrath. "You touch Little Ninth, you die."
"You'll kill me? I don't know what's gotten into you but that's some bold words, Deku." Anarchy teased as she snapped her fingers, springing Berserker to attention. "Can you back them up?"
Izuku(Alex) moved, punching Berserker right in the stomach. There was a great blast of wind as a shockwave rang out through the air, blew away villains that were still in the plaza and shattering lights that lined the edges of the dome, far away from the point of contact.
Minoru and Tsuyu, already warned about {Stockpile}, hunkered down with Eraser Head to avoid getting knocked away.
"Oh, no." Izuku muttered.
Oh, no indeed. The Nomu had taken the punch without blocking in the slightest. It didn't need to as Izuku(Alex) had barely given it any damage beyond bruised skin.
"What the hell?!" Anarchy growled from where she was. She had stabbed tentacles into the ground to steady herself, with one arm grabbing Kurogiri. "Either that's part of this," she gestured to all over Izuku's herculean appearance, "or you've got three Quirks!"
"M-Midoriya-chan!" Tsuyu called out. "You can't fight him! You'll die!"
"Don't worry, he won't." Anarchy called out to the frog girl. "I have every intention of taking him alive."
"I won't be dying nor will I be taken anywhere!" Izuku(Alex) declared before clenching his muscles as his form started to hunch forward even further. He started growling until with a final yell, his upper uniform exploded into a million tiny pieces of fabric. "Look upon me and be prepared for a display of the ARMSTRONG COMBAT STYLE WHICH HAS BEEN PASSED DOWN FOR GENERATIONS!"
As he struck down another villain in the Collapse Zone, Eijiro Kirishima suddenly halted, with tears springing up in his eyes.
"WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU FREEZING UP FOR, SHITTY HAIR?!" Katsuki Bakugo eloquently inquired.
"Somebody I know is being SUPREMELY MANLY RIGHT NOW AND I'M MISSING IT!" Eijiro wailed as sparkles and tears of manliness burst forth from him.
"...Deku, what the fuck?" Anarchy questioned before shaking her head. "Berserker, break his limbs. Sensei can heal them just fine when we get back."
Berserker roared forward but was promptly punched in the face, sending him a step!
"HOLY SHIT!" Minoru roared.
"What in the world? He moved faster than the Nomu could react?!" Kurogiri screamed in shock.
"Not to mention, Berserker was forced back a step." Anarchy added. "Considering it's {Shock Absorption}, that would take an immense amount of strength to achieve that."
"Naturally!" Overhearing their words, Izuku(Alex) posed in a way that highlighted his punching arm's muscles, with imaginary flames of manliness surrounding him! "My glorious muscles surpass your feeble logic or this {Shock Absorption}!"
"What an amazing personality change." Tsuyu uttered. "Is it a side effect of overusing a copied Quirk?"
"Definitely." Minoru whispered back. "This is too un-Midoriya-ish."
"I feel conflicted. Like I'm trapped between awe and mortification." Izuku whispered as he partially hid his face in his hands.
"I just feel awe. Go, Third!" Nana cheered. "Avenge Tenko!"
"DO IT!" Daisy and Daigoro roared.
"{Super Strength}, {Hyper Speed}, {Super Regeneration} and now, {Shock Absorption}?!" Takashi uttered in panic. "No doubt about. This practically has my brother's mark all over it!"
Izuku(Alex) rushed forward with another punch, leading Berserker into another clash when suddenly Izuku(Alex) ducked and side-stepped the punch, then bringing his arm up, locked up the Nomu's head and arm!
With a roar, Izuku(Alex) tripped up Berserker's leg and slammed him to the ground with a grapple!
"HOLY SHIT!" Minoru yelled in excitement. "GO, MIDORIYA!"
"You heard the kid! Go, Third!" Daisy cheered.
"You can do it!" Izuku encouraged.
"I have many ways to take down an opponent if my fists aren't enough!" Izuku(Alex) roared as after Berserker shoved him off, Izuku(Alex) quickly twisted his legs around his opponent's neck, trapping his arms and yanking.
Izuku(Alex) increased the pressure, forcing Berserker's head into it's shoulder until suddenly-
*CRACK!*
The Nomu roared in pain for the first time in months, starting to thrash about wildly as it's shoulder bone broke severely.
"Beat this miserable bastard!" Daigoro cheered.
"BREAK HIS FUCKING NECK!" Nana yelled.
"That's murder!" Izuku yelled back in shock.
As the Nomu threatened to actually lift up Izuku(Alex) by just it's arm, he switched holds again, landing in a position that left him stomping his entire weight on Berserker's wrists.
"Insolent fool. I haven't used this move on anyone else in my life except the worst of them all." Izuku(Alex) grabbed Berserker's thick neck and started to wring it. He raised his right hand before curling it into a fist, adjusting each and every finger for maximum impact. "Behold the {Bloody Beatdown}."
"Oh shit." Hikage cursed, surprising everyone.
In a swift move, Izuku(Alex) punched Berserker right in the brain with such force that the latter face literally rippled from the power, {Shock Absorption} be damned!
"I... I knew that exposed brain was a GLARING weak point, but the BRAIN?!" Izuku squeaked.
"...More." Nana was merciless.
Izuku(Alex) obliged, continuing to punch the literal crap out of Berserker with a fist so fast and powerful it left afterimages and shattered the ground beneath Berserker's head.
After a solid 30 seconds of nobody having the guts to interrupt his pummeling, Izuku(Alex) stopped and jumped back.
There was a thick silence as Berserker struggled to get up but stumbled, it's weak cries sounding more pitiful than threatening.
"W-What the hell?" Anarchy wondered at what she'd just witnessed. "This is too out of character. Who the hell are you?! You're definitely not Deku!"
"She's figuring it out." Izuku fretted.
"How does this girl know you?" Takashi inquired.
"I don't know!" Izuku yelled.
"N-Not just the Pro Heroes, the kids here are scary too..." One of the still conscious villains around uttered. "With most of our forces depleted, what do we do?!"
"Relax, we still have Anarchy-chan and Kurogiri-san here." The other villain next to him consoled. "Besides..."
His pessimistic partner's eyes widened before he moved, trying to stop him from uttering those cursed words.
"Things couldn't possibly get any worse."
There was a long beat in which every one present and conscious (except the Nomu) regarded the optimistic idiot.
"Kurogiri, no matter what, we're ditching that guy." Anarchy ordered with a blank face.
"Understood." Kurogiri replied. Despite his lack of facial expressions, his equally blank tone was clear. "The League of Villains doesn't need Tempters of Fate in it's ranks."
There was a deafening bang from across the plaza, everyone's attention switching to the source as the doors to the U.S.J. are smashed right open as something or rather someone finally makes their entrance.
In that moment, as if a higher being decided to answer the optimistic villain with cosmic sadism, footsteps echo out as a tall, hulking and familiar figure appeared...
The despairing villain turned to the optimistic villain. "If we survive Him, remind me to educate you on the wise words of Murphy."
The Symbol of Peace slammed his foot down, the dust kicked up from his destruction of the doors billowing around him as a golden aura briefly manifested around him, which matched Izuku(Alex)'s crimson one.
"Have no fear, students." All Might a.k.a. Toshinori Yagi's teeth were clenched tight, shadows in every crease upon the man's face, set not with his smile, but in an expression of primal fury. "I AM HERE!"
