The Demon Slayer
Chapter 3: The Bigger they are, the harder they fall.
The ground started to rumble and a huge dust cloud engulfed the area, soon a robot as big as a skyscraper emerged. This distilled fear into most of the examinees.
Izuku just thought with a deadpan face 'Where do they get the funding for this shit?'
Many people were running in fear from the robot, some capitalizing on the distraction to rack up more points. Izuku just stood there, analyzing the monstrous machine. 'The weak points look like they're located in the joints around the arms, neck and knees. If I use Thunder Breathing, Thunderclap and flash (Six fold) I should be able to slash every joint and land on the head. Okay let's take this beast down!'
Izuku took his stance and started to generate lighting around him. For about six seconds he stood there, amassing large amounts of electricity. Finally the time was upon the young hero to unleash his attack "Thunder Breathing: First Style: Thunderclap and flash, Six Fold!" Izuku shouted as he rocketed off towards the robot.
*Clink*
*Clink*
*Clink*
*Clink*
*Clink*
In an instant Izuku had flashed towards the robot and propelled himself towards each of the joints. The prior clinks were Izuku's sword cutting the weak points, destabilizing the robot. Now Izuku was 20 Meters above the robot. Now a look of worry entered the demon slayer's mind.
'SHIT! I wasn't supposed to go this high! What will slow me down! DAMN IT IZUKU THINK! WHAT WILL SLOW YOU DOWN?'
'Slicing into the robot, getting your sword to take the impact as well as slowing you down'
'Okay… I'll use the sixth style then, to increase the blade power, to slow me down' Izuku thought as he raised his blade above his head.
"Storm Breathing: Sixth Style: Electric Waterfall!" is what Izuku shouted whilst swinging his blade downwards, creating what seemed to be purple water. As the blade cut into the robot's head a gaint torrent of water flowed out from the blade.
Purple water, flowing from Izuku's blade tore its way through the zero pointer. Soon the water generated from the Storm Breath Technique cut through the entire hull of the robot. Somehow this allowed Izuku to land safely.
'Well that was scary' Izuku thought amongst cheers and whisperings from the other examinees.
'Wait I bet that looked super cool, might as well finish it by walking away not saying a single word' Izuku thought again, as he walked away from the mess of a robot that he had made.
-1 Hour Later-
Izuku was walking out of the change rooms, and grabbed his phone out and texted Momo.
Izuku: Yo! Just smashed the exam! Wanna have dinner tomorrow to talk about it?
Momo: Sure it's a date!
Izuku: WHAT!?
Momo: AHh? It's an expression… yeah it is like 'set in stone'
Izuku: I'm confused
Momo: Don't worry about it…
Izuku's heart was thumping, probably the most attractive girl he had met wanted to have a date with him! He knew he was never good at picking up hints or signals from anyone, but this was obvious. Maybe he should take this shot, after all one of his principles was 'You Miss 100% of the Shots You Don't Take'
Izuku: So where we headed for dinner then?
'Damn it Izuku, just type it… IT'S NOT THAT HARD!'
Momo: I don't know, maybe like a restaurant?
Izuku: Well I know this diner down town, it's called Yukihira and serves killer food!... and it's cheap so we can have lots of food!
Momo: What's a diner?
Izuku: It's just a cheap restaurant
Momo: Oh, nice
'IZUKU YOU COWARD TYPE IT NOW!' he was screaming internally while typing his next line.
Izuku: So I'll meet you at yours at around 12?
Izuku: … For our date?
Momo: …
'FUCK SHIT FUCK!' Izuku thought 'She doesn't want a date, what was I thinking, now we can't be friends… GOD DAMN IT!'
Momo: Sure, what do I wear?
In Izuku's mind many chibi versions of Izuku were dancing and singing "WE ARE THE CHAMPIONS MY FRIEND! YEAH WE ARE THE CHAMPIONS OF THE WORLD!"
Izuku had stopped walking all together and a smile bigger than All Might's had grown on Izuku's face.
Momo: Izuku?
Izuku: Oh right… sorry! Just wear casual clothes that you don't mind getting stolen
Momo: Okay… WHAT!
Izuku: Just joking, I'll talk later :)
Momo: Okay, Cya xx
'I still don't know what that xx means'
-1 Hour Later-
Izuku had finally made it home from U.A, One-sama was away on a business trip, which usually meant scouting new demon slayers. Izuku opened the door to see three Hashira waiting for him. All Might, Endeavour and Edgeshot were all standing in his house.
"Nani?" Izuku asked as he never saw the number one hero and the number two hero in the same room, ever!
"AH YOUNG MIDORIYA, HOW ARE YOU?" All Might asked as Izuku kneeled
"Well, All Might-sama"
"Stand up boy! Today we test you, to see if you have what it takes to become a Hashira!"
"I don't understand?" Izuku said while standing up
Endeavour interrupted "The stone Hashira has died in battle, we have a position to fill and One-sama has recommended you, and you are our top candidate as well."
"But before you say anything about being the only candidate you are wrong Midoriya. You see we have expanded our influence since you were last told of our numbers, in Japan we are now 300 strong, with some pro-heroes knowing some basic breathing. Endeavour's son is also a swordsman." Edgeshot explained
"So Hashira-samas what do I have to do to pass, what do I have to do to become a Hashira?" Izuku asked
"You will fight all three of us, if you last for more than a minute you pass! But know that I will only be going 30%, as will the other two. We do not want to kill you nor make the fight unfair" All Might said as Edgeshot pulled out a kunai from his pocket, he threw it into the air.
Izuku knew what this meant, and activated his quirk!
(AN: Read the next bit with Present Mic's voice)
IZUKU TANJIRO MIDORIYA
QUIRK: Perception (S)
Izuku's irises turn into Ying-Yang symbols, this allows him to change the rate of time momentarily. The more he slows down time, the greater the strain on his eyes, completely stopping time causes him to go blind until Midnight.
(End Reading in Present Mic voice)
The kunai hit the floor and Izuku unsheathed his sword, 10 seconds passed with nothing happening.
Izuku then decided to use Thunderclap and Splash! To zoom towards Endeavor, who blocked with his fire sword.
Izuku then smiled and spoke "Storm Breathing: Second Style: Neon Lights"
Soon Izuku's sword began to glow in a neon purple tone before breaking the sword of pure fire Endeavor had made. Izuku's swing continued until he hit the ground where beams of neon shot from the sword's tip into the air, blinding Endeavour and allowing Izuku to speed away to the outside of the house. That took 10 seconds.
5 Seconds passed before Edgeshot zoomed out of the building and then clashed swords with Izuku.
All Might then came speeding towards Izuku with his green sword. 'I won't be able to block this swing, the only option is to run!' the ponytail haired boy said as he began to ready his body for a sprint. 30 seconds remaining…
Izuku zoomed away, but heard a somewhat satisfying swish. Izuku's ponytail had just been cut off.
"DO YOU KNOW HOW LONG I HAVE BEEN GROWING THAT FOR?!" Izuku shouted as he prepared for a ranged attack.
"My apologies young Midoriya" All Might said before hearing "Storm Breathing: Fifth Style: Storm Bolt!" from Izuku.
The said boy's sword was swung in a downwards arc, when the sword aligned with All Might a purple bolt of lightning shot out towards the number 1 hero. 20 Seconds remaining.
Izuku then leaped onto the top of his house. 17 seconds remains.
Edgeshot used his fold-a-body quirk to zoom at Izuku, one second later he was behind the hero course hopeful. Izuku felt a tip of a blade on his neck. "You Lo-" Edgeshot was saying before Izuku used his quirk to slow time down, allowing the said boy to turn around and uppercut the number 4 hero in the jaw. 15 Seconds left.
Izuku then smelt two presences next to him. Both of them being the most powerful heroes. Izuku anticipated an overhead strike to which he held his sword up to block. 13 seconds left.
*CLANG* *CLANG*
The two swords hit Izuku's blade. One being a green one while the other being a red one with flames engraved into them. 12 Seconds remain.
Izuku was beginning to buckle under the pressure. He used his quirk again, Izuku slipped out of the sword lock and sprinted towards the mountains. 10 seconds left.
Izuku deactivated his quirk, allowing time to flow normally once more. 2 seconds passed.
All Might then charged at the boy at blinding speeds "DETROIT-"
'Oh HELL NO' Izuku thought as he used his quirk once more. The hopeful hero saw the punch inching towards him. Midoriya sidestepped the punch narrowly and then decided to make a break for it. 6 seconds until the test was over.
Endeavor charged at the boy, who parried with his sword. 5 seconds remain.
Izuku ran towards the house. 4 seconds left.
Izuku was now in the house, he decided to shut the door. 3 seconds left.
Izuku then slipped through a window. 2 seconds left.
Izuku found himself being trailed by all three hashira. 1 second left.
They all swung at him with their swords, causing the boy to block. 0 Seconds left.
Izuku used the full power of his quirk and stopped time. In this frozen time Izuku used his sword to gently scratch each of the hero's chins. After that Izuku walked behind them and allowed time to flow once more. Test complete.
"AAAGH!" Izuku screamed and cupped his eyes as all the Hashira's chins began to bleed.
AN:
Sorry for the wait
Doing serious school work XD
