After joining with Iida, Bulla, Yaoyorozu, Kaminari, and Jiro made their way to the Central Plaza. "So, Class Rep," Jiro said in between breaths, "how are you so sure where everyone is?"
"Look, I can't quite explain it, right now!" Bulla responded. "I need you to trust me, and I'll explain when I can!"
"We trust you, Bulla! You saved us, so the least we can do is put our faith in you!" Yaoyorozu chimed in as the Central Plaza began to come into view. The large monster and the crusty man were closing in on Midoriya, Mineta, and Asui, striking fear into Bulla's heart.
"Iida, let me on your back! I'm going to add some speed to your boost." As his engines began to boost, Bulla wrapped her legs around her secretary's abdomen, throwing all her firepower into the beams behind them. Clearing the distance, Bulla leaped forward and unleashed a blast onto the monster's face. "HAAAAA!" With all her power behind her attack, the creature stagged slightly, releasing Midoriya while Iida swung a heavy kick at the man who was next to it. With his foot slamming across the man's temple, Iida grabbed Asui and Mineta from the water, and gained some distance between them and the villains.
With the situation calmed down, Bulla took a look around. Dozens of villains surrounded them, with the three main villains standing side-by-side at the fountain. "We're not in the most ideal situation, Brief."
"I hear you..." Bulla told him as Yaoyorozu, Jiro, and Kaminari, who had regained his senses, joined the fray and faced the outer layer of villains. Just as Mineta began to scream and cry about being outnumbered, Aoyama, Tokoyami, and Koda entered the Central Plaza.
"No matter how many of you join the fight, you're all as good as dead." The head villain spoke, sending a chill down Bulla's spine.
"So what are you here for? You guys just felt like slaughtering a class of teens?" Bulla called out, trying to buy them some time.
"If that's what it takes to drag the Symbol of Peace out of hiding, then so be it." He explained, raising his arms to the side.
"You want All Might? Are you sure about that? I don't quite know how strong the guy is, but to be the strongest man in the whole world... Well, let me just say you're playing with fire." Bulla taunted.
"And that's precisely the reason why my Nomu here is the bioengineered Anti-Symbol of Peace." The crusty man explained. "He's been created to be even stronger than All Might himself!"
Bulla's eyes narrowed, and she grit her teeth. "Tomura Shigaraki. It would be problematic if we allow these students to interfere in our plans." The shadowy man spoke.
"You're right, Kurogiri. Kill them." Shigaraki demanded as the villains began to close in. Before they could take another step forward, chaos began to ensue. From the outer layer of villains, an explosion formed, and at the same time, the air turned cold as a layer of ice formed along the ground nearby, freezing several villains. And from the opposite end, of the crowd, a pair of dark hands swung through the crowd.
With a smile, Bulla chuckled. "Finally! It took you long enough!"
"Shut the hell up, idiot!" Bakugo yelled as he blasted a couple villains away.
"I'm sorry for my tardiness, Brief." Todoroki said as he walked through the wave of frozen villains.
"I'm glad we managed to get here on time!" Tokoyami said as he flattened a trio of villains.
"Bakugo, give us a screen!" Bulla yelled. "Mineta, lay down some groundwork!"
"Don't tell me what to do, dammit!" Bakugo yelled as he let off a massive explosion, blowing away some villains while covering the area in smoke.
"No way! You want me to fight against these villains, you're insane!" Mineta cried as Bulla grit her teeth in frustration.
"Mineta, we need you! You have to entrap our enemies! Even if you can't fight, your Quirk can be amazing, too!" She called out as she unleashed several pinpoint shots into the smoke, trying to focus in on the scattered energies. "Momo! Let out some heavy fire on that big monster! Jiro, Kaminari, Kirishima, Iida, Todoroki, Tokoyami, Aoyama, thin the crowd! Bakugo, keep the smoke dense!"
"We hear you, class rep!" Kirishima said from beyond the smoke.
"We'll do what we can." Tokoyami followed.
"Just leave it to us, Class Rep!" Kaminari said confidently as a wave of lightning slightly illuminated the area beyond the smoke.
"These guys are nothing but petty thieves." Todoroki called out as the air continued to grow colder.
"Dammit! Taste my sticky balls you stupid villains!" Mineta yelled, finally stepping up to lay the field with his sticky balls.
Class 1A continued to wipe out the villains, one after another. Bulla aimed a Ki blast downward and blasted out of the screen with a smoke trail. Looking down, Yaoyorozu had just loaded a cannon, and unleased the devastating blast at the Nomu. Blasting off towards the monster, she took the distraction as an opportunity to close the distance. As she unleased a massive Ki blast on the monster, it had no effect. Bulla raised her arms, and the monster slammed it's fist into her, sending her flying back.
"Bulla!" Yaoyorozu cried out
"Class Rep!" Jiro followed as the two of them ran to aid their leader.
"Damn... That thing hits way too hard!" Bulla said to herself as her arms convulsed. "It almost broke my arms, just now!" Before the two could make their way over, Bulla could hear the monster screeching, followed by Yaoyorozu and Jiro's screams. "Momo! Jiro!"
"It's too late for you, heroes. You'll all die, one-by-one, starting with this one here." Shigaraki stated as Nomu loomed over an unconscious Yaoyorozu and Jiro, blood dripping from their heads.
"Nooo!" Bulla cried out. Dammit! Move! Move, Bulla! Are you just going to let a monster take everything from you again?! "Dammit! You leave her ALONE!" As Bulla yelled, her energy spiked, revealing a white aura around her. "HAAAA!" As Shigaraki halted his assault, all eyes watched as the smokescreen blew away with the gale around Bulla.
She dashed forward, slamming her fist into the Nomu. Although it had little effect, she didn't halt her advances. Come on! Come. On! Hit it harder! Bulla landed a series of consecutive blows, first in the gut, then in the chest, followed by the jaw. The creature just screeched and threw another punch. Bulla ducked before throwing her hands against it, unleashing the maximum extent of her current strength. Unlike before, this time, the Nomu was pushed back several meters.
Bulla dashed forward and continued to attack to the best of her ability. Each blow sent a large gale through the dwindling crowd of villains as Class 1A continued to reduce their numbers. As she slammed her fists together onto its head, the Nomu grabbed her and slammed her into the ground. As she cried out, Nomu slammed its fists onto her, and she grit her teeth before blasting off from the ground, slamming her foot into its jaw. Slamming her foot into its chest, Bulla jumped back and gave herself some distance, breathing heavily. The blood in her mouth tasted metallic, and she wiped it away and assessed the damages on her armor.
"My, my! You're a lot stronger than you were a few minutes ago! You didn't do a lot of damage, but you actually managed to push back my Nomu! It's actually really cool!" Shigaraki praised as Bulla's blood started to boil.
"You asshole. You come here, you threaten my class, you hurt my teachers, but worst of all, you hurt my friend." She said calmly before erupting in anger. "You're going to pay!" She yelled as she dashed forward, almost vanishing before she slammed a fist into Shigaraki. As the surprise attack stunned him, Bulla jumped and spun around, slamming her foot into Shigaraki and sending him flying.
I noticed it before. Nomu...it doesn't attack independently. It only follows that guy's orders. Before she could analyze the situation very well, a purple shroud began to envelope Bulla. "Although you are quite formidable, you are still naïve to allow yourself to forget about you surroundings." Bulla allowed herself to power up, creating a gale around her that kept Kurogiri at a distance. "Wha-What is this!"
"Bakugo!" Bulla called out as he dropped in from the sky, slamming the brace that he was hiding to the ground. "Couldn't dodge that time, you smoky bastard!" He said mockingly.
"You will not kill the Symbol of Peace." Todoroki said before freezing another series of villains.
"Midoriya, Asui, Mineta, take Mr. Aizawa away. Iida, Kirishima, take Jiro and Momo with them. Meet up with the others and get out of here!" Bulla demanded as she narrowed her eyes.
"Wait, but what about you!?" Kirishima asked, taking down another villain.
"We can't leave you behind! It'd be disgraceful!" Iida claimed as he slammed his foot across two more villains.
"It'll be fine! Take Aoyama and Koda with you! We need to clear our non-combatants!" She demanded.
"B-But-!" Before Iida could finish his protest, Bulla stopped him.
"Dammit Iida! Just do it!" She yelled. "I can't lose anybody else, so just do what I say!"
It took him several moments to finally comply, and he closed the distance between him and Yaoyorozu. As he hoisted Yaoyorozu onto his back, Kirishima picked up Jiro and pulled her over his shoulder. "Make sure you mop the floor with these guys, Class Rep!" Kirishima told her as they made an attempt to clear the battlefield.
"Not so fast." Shigaraki said. "With my exit point taken hostage, I don't think I can allow any of them to get out. Nomu, take care of that boy."
"Don't you touch-!" Bulla winced, and the pain of the attacks she took began to cause her muscles to scream. "N-No! M-Move!" Even with her strength drained, she managed to blast off, throwing her body over Bakugo and knocking him out of the way before Nomu could land an attack.
"That attack was so fast... I couldn't even see it..." He said to himself. With a scowl, he looked down to the exhausted Bulla. "Dammit, you've had this kind of power hidden all along, and yet you were acting like you didn't belong here." He got himself to his feet and loaned Bulla a shoulder to lean on.
"Bak...ugo..." She said weakly.
"Save it. I hate admitting it, but we're in some shit if we can't get help." Bakugo said, clenching his teeth as Class 1A heard their representative's name echo throughout the USJ.
"BUUUULLLAAAA!" Looking up to the entrance, Bulla's eyes widened as she looked towards the top of the stairs in the distance. Pan was there, standing before her, with a gi blue undershirt, she wore a purple gi like her father's, transformed with a skirt rather than pants. She dropped something that she was carrying in her hand, and pulled something out of her blue sash. "WITH MY STRENGTH, I KNOW YOU CAN BEAT THESE GUYS!" Just barely, Bulla could make out Pan's movements. As she put something on her ear, the Potara Earring that Bulla was wearing began to glow and straightened out, as if it was reaching for Pan.
"Hey, what the hell?!" Bakugo said as Bulla began to lose control of her body, flying through the air as she was dragged by the force of the earrings.
As Pan and Bulla's body closed the distance, they joined together in a flash of light. All eyes looked to the sky, hero and villain alike. As their powers began to combined and skyrocket, an incredible gust bellowed throughout the USJ, seeming shaking the whole facility.
"What is that!?" Kirishima shouted as he was knocked down by the force of the powerup.
"What just happened?!" Todoroki said, dumbfounded by the events unfolding.
The gale settled down, and the light surrounding the new figure faded. Before everyone's eyes, a new warrior floated gently to the ground. Her gloves and boots matched Bulla's, with the purple-plated, white-trimmed armor layered over a blue undershirt, the padding on the shoulders and at her sides shaded blue. Similar blue briefs hid underneath a purple-armored skirt, with the padding on the sides intact and matching in palette. Her shoulder-length hair was black, but was laced with several blue highlights. Both Potara Earrings dangled from her ears, and a pair of sapphire eyes, as deep as the oceans, looked down at her opened hand.
"B...Bulla?" Yaoyorozu said weakly as she began to regain consciousness, looking over Iida's shoulders.
"Bulla...and Pan... No, I am neither of them. I guess that makes me..." The warrior turned to her opponents with a confident smile. "Bullan."
