Happy 2019 everyone!
I apologise for the late chapter release. I was very busy during the New Year and found it difficult to get out Chapter 5 any earlier from now. Hopefully this is worth the wait however, after all, it includes THE fight you've all be waiting for.
I'm sure you all know which one I'm talking about.
The following chapters will be released more frequently, so don't worry about that. Please, sit back and enjoy!
/Landslide Zone/
The ground erupted in an explosion of rubble as the villains were blasted away by the immense strength of their opponent. Milim Nava stepped forwards, a large smile on her face, as she picked up a large piece of rubble and threw it directly into one of the villains in surrounding her, launching him to the ground.
"Oh~, this is so fun!" She exclaimed.
One of the villains let out a battle cry as he charged towards her from behind, raising the sword he held and swinging it down towards the hero student.
Only for the blade of the sword to break apart as it impacted her skin, the pieces falling to the ground.
The villain's eyes widened as he stepped backwards, looking at his broken sword. "What are you…?" He said. Milim smiled as she quickly turned around, grabbing hold of the villain by his head and lifting him up off the ground before throwing him directly into a trio of other villains. The remaining villains stepped backwards, unsure on their chances of victory.
Milim stepped forwards.
"T-there's five of us and one of her! We can take her!" One of the villains exclaimed. After a moment's hesitation, the other villains began to nod in response.
"Yeah! She's just a kid!"
"T-those other guys who were defeated were simply weak! They're not like us!"
"Yeah, you'll regret standing against us, girl!"
"Why don't you just give up and die already?!"
The five remaining villains yelled a battle roar as they all charged towards Milim simultaneously, readying their weapons and Quirks as they moved to face the hero-in-training. Milim smiled as she saw the abilities and weapons they each possessed.
Gun-arms, knife-fingers, fire breath, electricity manipulation, and cloning.
The gun-armed villain fired a barrage of bullets towards Milim, as she raised her arms in defence and the bullets simply deflected off her skin. "B-bullets don't affect her!" The gun-armed villain exclaimed. The villain with knife-fingers charged forwards, swiping and slashing towards her as Milim simply deflected the blows with her arms before grabbing the villain by the head, smashing her knee into his face and throwing him into the gun-armed villain, knocking them both down.
Suddenly, a blast of fire breath was released by one of the villains, alongside a beam of electricity as they impacted Milim head-on. She raised her arms in defence, grunting in pain as the electricity and fire engulfed her body. Milim fell down onto one knee. "Hah! We've got her!" The electricity-wielding villain exclaimed.
The villain's eyes widened as he saw Milim quickly grab hold of a small piece of rubble, picking it up and throwing it directly into the electricity-wielding villain's face, as she quickly charged forwards and tackled him to the ground, following it up with a devastating punch to the face which knocked him out cold.
Milim then quickly turned, launching herself towards the fire-breathing villain before he could respond, swinging her fist downwards and blasting him to the ground with such force that the ground cracked around his unconscious body.
"You'll pay for what you did to my comrades!"
Suddenly, as Milim stood up, she saw that she was surrounded. By several dozen of the same person. The final villain's Quirk – cloning. All of them had spoken at once, as if they were all of one mind. "Die now!" They all exclaimed at the same time, before leaping towards her.
Milim smiled, before smashing her foot into the ground, a huge amount of smoke erupting from the impact point and filling the area. The clones all landed where she was, but Milim was suddenly gone. "W-what!? Where'd you go?!" They all exclaimed.
"I'm right behind you, silly!"
All the clones turned as the smoke cleared, and saw Milim standing there.
Holding a massive boulder.
Milim threw the boulder into the air, as all the clones could do was widen their eyes as the massive boulder landed onto their position, crushing them all as the clones each disappeared. The single remaining real villain stood there, his eyes wide as he had just watched all his clones be instantly destroyed.
"…m-monster…"
He was cut off as Milim delivered a tremendous punch into his face, knocking the cloning villain out cold as he fell to the ground. Milim stretched her body as she looked around at all the unconscious villains around her.
"Hmmm, this was so much better than what that rescue thing would've been…"
Milim blinked as she saw another person walking nearby. It was a boy with light skin, and short hair that was equally red on one side and white on the other. His left eye was light blue while his right eye was grey. There was a large burn mark around his left eye, and the left side of his body was covered in ice. He seemed to be heading in the direction of the central plaza.
"Hey~, isn't that that 'Shoto Todoroki' guy? Wonder what he's doing…"
Milim quickly hopped and jumped her way over towards him, as Todoroki spotted her and quickly recoiled in defence, before recognizing her. "Hey! Watcha doing?" Milim asked as she landed in front of Todoroki. He thought for a moment before answering.
"…it's Milim Nava, right?"
Milim nodded.
"I interrogated some of the villains on their plans and how they think they can kill All Might. Come with me, your Quirk is strong and it might be needed. I saw you use it during the Battle Trials. That immense power of yours might come in handy." Todoroki said. Milim tilted her head.
"Okay then! I'll follow you!" She responded.
Iida charged forwards, directly towards the exit. But he could feel the presence of the black misty villain, in pursuit directly behind him. "Damn…!" He exclaimed as he ran as fast as he could, but seemingly couldn't shake his pursuer.
"How impertinent! I won't allow you to leave!" The black misty villain exclaimed.
Uraraka charged forwards, running past Sero and Mina, who was attending to the wounded Thirteen. "What are you gonna do, Uraraka?!" Mina exclaimed as she saw Uraraka run past her and Thirteen.
"There! See it?!" Uraraka exclaimed as she looked towards several metal plates on the black misty villain's body.
The automatic doors! Can I kick them down?! Or are they too thick for that?! Iida thought as he got closer to the exit. He yelled out a battle cry as he charged towards them. Suddenly the black misty villain appeared in front of him, opening up a dark portal.
"You underestimate me, four-eyes! Now vanish!" The black misty villain exclaimed.
Only for him to suddenly be pulled away, the portal being thrown out of Iida's path. The black misty villain exclaimed in surprise as he saw Uraraka grab hold of him by the metal plates around a part of his body, activating her Quirk and throwing him up to the air.
"I'm not sure why, but if you're wearing this thing, then you must have a real body in there!" Uraraka exclaimed as she threw the black misty villain high into the air. Sero fired tape from his elbow, wrapping it around the black misty villain and pulling him away.
She got my body?!
"Now go, Iida!"
"Go! Do it!"
Iida threw open the exit door, rushing outside at top speed. The black misty villain pulled himself out of Sero's tape, floating high into the air as he looked towards the now open exit door. "If he calls for help…" The villain muttered.
"…it's game over…"
/Mountain Zone/
They want…to take me with them?
Rimuru thought as she attempted to move, but couldn't due to the fact that there was a sword pinning her to the ground alongside Laplace sitting on her back. "Now, now, stay still. Your Quirk is very unique and so it might interest Shigaraki's big boss! That's kind of an honour, he's an important and dangerous guy!" Laplace remarked.
As if I'd do that!
"Predation!"
Laplace's eyes widened behind his mask as Rimuru's body transformed, melting into a large blue goo of sorts. Tear quickly jumped backwards to gain distance, as Rimuru's body expanded upwards and moved to engulf both Laplace and the sword which had just been pinned through her body.
"It won't be that easy! Ahah!"
Laplace flipped back and managed to avoid the blue slime-like substance at the last moment, landing several metres away as Rimuru engulfed and stored the sword before reforming into her humanoid form in her hero costume, standing back up. "My, my, what was that?! Oh, I'm sure your Quirk will DEFINITELY interest him now!" Laplace remarked.
"She took my sword!" Tear exclaimed.
Rimuru quickly turned towards Tear. "If you want it back so much, you can have it!" She exclaimed, leaping directly towards Tear. The young villain jumped backwards to gain distance, as Rimuru raised her arm and aimed it towards Tear.
I stored the sword inside me. And now, I can expel it forcefully!
Rimuru released the sword out of her hand aimed towards Tear, firing it like a bullet directly towards the young Villain as she widened her eyes in surprise. Using her Quirk, Tear quickly moved to dodge to the left, attempting to avoid the sword.
But she was too late
The sword went straight through the fur clothing around her neck, pinning Tear to a large boulder and preventing her from moving. Rimuru continued to run forwards, readying herself. Now, if I can just store her inside me…! Rimuru thought.
Suddenly, a large blast of black lightning impacted Rimuru, blasting her to the ground before she could attempt Predation. "Nobody does that to my little sister! Nobody!" Laplace exclaimed as he fired black lightning from his fingertips, again and again towards the hero-in-training as Rimuru took cover behind a boulder.
I can't get near her while that Laplace guy is there!
/Central Plaza/
Nomu slowly held Aizawa's right arm, cracking it as the hero exclaimed in pain. The villain with disembodied hands chuckled as he stepped forwards. "Cancelling out Quirks. Pretty cool, but nothing special. Up again crazy strength, you might as well be totally Quirkless." He remarked mockingly.
Nomu grabbed Aizawa's left arm, before snapping easily. Aizawa yelled out in pain. He snapped my arm like a twig! Looking at any part of his body should be enough to nullify him…so that means…! Aizawa thought.
That means this is his base strength! He's easily as strong as All Might…
Nomu grabbed hold of Aizawa by the head, before smashing him into the ground as he exclaimed in pain. Suddenly, the black misty villain materialized next to the villain with disembodied hands. "Tomura Shigaraki." The black misty villain said.
Shigaraki turned towards him. "Kurogiri. Is Thirteen dead?" He asked.
Kurogiri floated next to him. "He is incapacitated. There were some students I couldn't warp away…and one of them escaped." He said. Shigaraki turned towards him.
"Oh?"
Shigaraki looked downwards, as he begun to start scratching his own neck in frustration. "Kurogiri, you…I'd turn you to dust if you weren't our ticket out of here. We won't stand a chance against dozens of pros. It's game over, man…it's game over, for now."
"We're leaving."
Midoriya's eyes widened as he watched Aizawa be thrown to the ground by Nomu. Asui was hidden in the water next to him, alongside one of the other students, a short one with light skin, black eyes and black and purple hair in with several circular shapes, named Minoru Mineta. "T-this is bad, Midoriya…time for a change of plans, yeah?" Mineta said, his hand over his mouth as he watched Nomu pin Aizawa to the ground.
But then, his eyes widened.
"Leaving…? Did he just say they're leaving?" Mineta exclaimed.
"I think so." Asui remarked.
"W-WE'RE SAVED, YES!" Mineta exclaimed, hugging Asui as his hand grabbed one of her breasts. "Yeah, but…" Asui responded, quickly pushing Mineta underwater after realizing what he had just done.
"I've got a bad feeling, Midoriya." Asui remarked.
"Yeah…to do all this…and then just leave on a whim…" Midoriya responded.
Didn't they want to kill All Might?! U.A.'s just going to be in more danger than ever if they get away now! Game over, he said? What…what are they thinking?! Midoriya thought. These guys!
And then, Shigaraki slowly turned towards where Midoriya, Asui and Mineta were hiding. "But before that…let's leave a few dead kids here…" He said, suddenly launching himself forwards as within moments, he was crouched down in front of Asui, his hand raised.
"TO WOUND THE PRIDE OF THE SYMBOL OF PEACE!"
Midoriya remembered. He remembered what had happened when Shigaraki had taken hold of Aizawa's elbow. It had stated to disintegrate. And now, Shigaraki was moving that same hand towards Asui's face. Before anyone could even react, Shigaraki had grabbed hold of Asui by the head.
But nothing happened.
"You really are pretty cool." Shigaraki remarked.
"Eraser Head."
Aizawa was staring right towards Shigaraki, his eyes glowing as the villain's Quirk had been negated. Nomu quickly raised Aizawa's head, before slamming the hero into the ground once more.
Midoriya quickly turned and leaped towards Shigaraki, raising his fist.This guy's nothing like those other villains in the water! Asui, run! Save yourself!Midoriya thought as his arm lit up, his Quirk activating as he swung his fist with all his might directly towards Shigaraki. "Get…OFF HER!" Midoriya exclaimed. And Shigaraki spoke one word.
"Nomu."
"SMASH!"
Midoriya's punch impacted, a huge explosion of smoke being released. My arm's not broken…?! This is when I manage to regulate the power?! Did I really do it?! I know the smash connected! Midoriya thought as he looked at his arm.
I did it…
The smoke cleared, and Midoriya saw that he had not hit Shigaraki, but Nomu. His fist had impacted Nomu's torso.
And the monster was completely unharmed.
So…quick…when did he…?
Wait…it didn't…work…?
…no way…
Shigaraki chuckled as he looked towards Midoriya. "Quite a move you just pulled off…and with a 'smash' too…you a fan of All Might?" He remarked as Nomu looked down towards Midoriya. Midoriya said nothing in response, shocked.
"Well…whatever…"
Nomu grabbed Midoriya by the arm, as Asui released her tongue in an attempt to push Midoriya away from Nomu, while Shigaraki moved forwards, both his hands stretched out towards both Asui and Mineta.
And before anything could happen, the entrance to the building was suddenly blasted apart, a figure stepping forwards. Everyone stopped moving.
The yellow hair.
The large, muscular body.
It was All Might.
"Fear not…"
"I…AM HERE."
And he was not smiling.
"I had a bad feeling…so I cut my talk with the principal short and came right away."
All Might's voice boomed from the entrance, where all the students and villains could hear him.
"Then I ran into Iida on the way…"
"He told me the gist of what's going on here."
All Might put his hand up to his neck. And he ripped his tie off, as he stepped out of the smoke. All of the villains and students were looking up towards him. Shigaraki and Nomu had stopped their attack, much to the relief of Midoriya, Asui and Mineta. Shigaraki looked up towards All Might.
"I've been waiting, hero…you're worthless trash." He said. All the other villains in the central plaza were looking up towards All Might as well.
"That's All Might…? I've never seen him in person before…what a presence…" One villain exclaimed.
"No backing down, you idiot. We're here to kill him." Another villain said.
All Might then jumped down from the entrance, towards the central plaza.
And within a second, he had burst forwards, delivering a barrage of attacks which had blasted every villain to the ground instantly, knocking them out. He grabbed Aizawa, jumping backwards to safety. His arm…and his face! All Might thought, placing Aizawa down. He looked towards Shigaraki and Nomu.
And in an instant, he grabbed Midoriya, Asui and Mineta, jumping to safety as he also delivered a punch into Shigaraki, knocking the disembodied hand from his face. All Might landed several metres away, next to Aizawa. He placed Midoriya, Asui and Mineta down.
"Everyone, to the entrance. Take Aizawa. He's unconscious. Hurry!" All Might said.
"Huh?! Wait, what? So fast!" Mineta exclaimed.
"Ahhhh…no good…" Shigaraki muttered as he slowly picked up the disembodied hand. "Father…" He said, putting the disembodied hand back on his face. He chuckled. "Throwing punches to save people…ha ha ha. That's our state-sponsored violence. You're fast. Too fast to keep up with, but not as fast as expected. Could it really be true…?"
Shigaraki slowly turned towards All Might, looking over his shoulder.
"That you're getting weaker?"
Midoriya quickly turned towards All Might. "It's no use, All Might! That brain villain! One For-I mean, my attack wasn't strong enough to break my own arm, but he didn't even flinch! Up against that, you-" He said, only to be cut off.
"Midoriya."
All Might slowly turned towards Midoriya, striking a pose and smiling.
"Fear not!"
He then turned, before leaping towards Shigaraki, raising his arms. "Nomu." Shigaraki said, as the lumbering monster jumped between All Might and Shigaraki. All Might lifted his arms, delivering a double hand chop that crossed downwards directly into Nomu's body.
"CAROLINA SMASH!"
A huge gust of wind was released from the attack, the water behind Nomu and Shigaraki being blasted backwards by the mere force of the attack. However, Nomu was seemingly unfazed by the Symbol of Peace's move. Nomu swiped his arms forwards, as All Might ducked and avoided the blow.
"Seriously? No effect at all?!"
All Might exclaimed as he delivered a tremendous punch into Nomu's chest, but once again, the villain was unharmed. "No effect. Because he's got 「Shock Absorption」. If you really want to damage Nomu, you'd be better off slowly ripping him apart, piece by piece…not that he'd give you that chance." Shigaraki said, chuckling as All Might continued to deliver punch after punch into the towering Nomu.
"Thanks for the info, I appreciate it! NO SWEAT!" All Might exclaimed in response, quickly moving behind Nomu and grabbing him from behind, pulling with all his strength as he delivered a tremendous suplex and smashed Nomu into the ground. A huge explosion of rubble erupted from the impact point.
"How'd a suplex make an explosion like that?! All Might's in a different league!" Mineta exclaimed in surprise as he helped Midoriya and Asui carry the unconscious Aizawa to safety. Midoriya looked to where All Might was fighting.
They might have a way to kill him…meanwhile, we're stuck here, helpless. Even worse, we'd only slow him down if they took one of us hostage. No reason to speculate about the villains…I've got to trust in All Might! Midoriya thought.
"Nice! They totally underestimated what All Might's capable of!" Sato exclaimed as he looked down towards the battle from the entrance. "Ah, it's Deku and those guys!" Uraraka said, pointing down towards Midoriya, Asui, Mineta and Aizawa.
"Go get him! GET HIM IN THE JUNK!" Mineta exclaimed.
"Guess we were worried for nothing…he's unreal." Asui remarked.
However, their eyes widened as they saw the smoke from All Might's suplex clear. Kurogiri's portal had opened from where Nomu had been smashed into, the upper body of the monstrous villain now protruding from a second portal directly under All Might.
And Nomu's claws, were driven into All Might's body.
The Symbol of Peace was bleeding.
Rimuru jumped out from behind the boulder, raising her arm and aiming it towards Laplace. "Aqua Hose!" She exclaimed, before releasing a massive blast of water from the palm of her hand, as it impacted the black lighting Laplace was firing from his fingertips.
Aqua Hose is no different from Hydraulic Propulsion…I expel a large blast of water from my inner storage. But this time, it's offensive instead of used for mobility! Rimuru thought.
There was a massive explosion of smoke as the cold water and the heat of the black lightning met, the two attacks cancelling eachother out as the area was filled with a thick fog of smoke. "You have water attacks, too? Oh, he'll love this Quirk of yours!" Laplace remarked.
"Though this smoke is kind of in the way…"
"Let's get rid of that first!"
Laplace raised his arms, activating his Quirk, and suddenly, several pillars of black lightning were released around his body, expanding in a circular pattern around him with Laplace at the centre. The smoke was blasted away, clearing the area.
「Body Armour」
Rimuru charged forwards, the silver metal scale-like armour forming around her single right arm as she swung her fist directly into Laplace's face. The villain was knocked back, exclaiming in surprise. "It won't be that easy, girlie!" Laplace remarked, as Rimuru moved to throw another punch.
However, Laplace countered the punch, knocking it away as he delivered a quick punch into Rimuru's masked face, before following it up with a combo into her gut. She was knocked backwards, with Rimuru spinning around and moving to throw another punch towards the villain.
Laplace countered that punch as well, knocking it downwards as he smashed his knee into Rimuru's chest, before raising his fist and delivering a black lightning-enhanced punch directly into her torso. Rimuru was blasted backwards, crashing into large rock and falling to the ground.
T-this guy's…easily as powerful as a Pro Hero…!
Laplace chuckled as he slowly walked over to the pinned Tear, pulling the sword out and letting her fall to her feet. "There you go, little sister. Now, it's time for the coup de grâce!" Laplace exclaimed, turning and walking towards the wounded Rimuru, sword in hand. Rimuru attempted to move her arm upwards, to punch the villain.
Only to have it instantly cut off from the elbow, Laplace swinging Tear's sword with tremendous speed and ferocity. Rimuru's right arm fell to the ground, the blue gooey insides visible. She was now armless.
Are you kidding me?! I'm really, really glad I don't feel pain!
Laplace rested the sword on his shoulder as he looked down towards Rimuru. "No exclaiming in pain? No yelling and screaming for mercy? You really ARE interesting." He remarked, before chucking the sword over to Tear, who caught it and put it back in her sheath.
"Well, let's get going then! I'm sure that Nomu's already killed All Might by now!" Laplace remarked, grabbing hold of the helpless Rimuru and throwing her over his shoulder. Rimuru attempted to struggle and get out of his grip, but couldn't due to her lack of arms.
"Oh, Tear, grab her two arms as well. We may need them, you never know."
Tear nodded, picking up the two arms which had been cut off. "Well, that's that, then!" Laplace remarked as he started to walk away. Tear followed afterwards, holding both of Rimuru's arms, which she really wished she still had.
"Ggh…so that's how it is!" All Might remarked, coughing out blood.
Shigaraki chuckled. "So you hoped to drive him into concrete and seal his movements? It wouldn't have worked. Nomu is as powerful as you. Well done, Kurogiri. Perfect timing, actually." He remarked as he looked down towards All Might, and then to Kurogiri.
All Might exclaimed in pain as Nomu's claws were driven into both sides of his chest. The left side of his chest seemed to be bleeding more than the right side. What unbelievable power! Cut it out, that's my weak point! All Might thought.
"Impressive, for first time offenders…but prepare yourselves!" All Might exclaimed.
"I can't say I much like the idea of having blood and guts inside my gate, but…if they're yours, I'll happily oblige." Kurogiri remarked, looking down towards All Might. "You see, it's Nomu's job to get around that blinding speed of yours and hold you down. And it's my job to close the warp gate on you while you're halfway through and immobilized."
"Thereby cutting you in two."
Suddenly, several figures jumped down and landed next to Shigaraki and Kurogiri. It was Laplace and Tear, with the helpless, armless Rimuru over the former's shoulder. Tempest…?! All Might thought as he glanced over towards Rimuru.
Your arms…!
"Laplace…I thought I told you to kill the students Kurogiri warped to your location." Shigaraki remarked as he glanced over towards the two villains and the one helpless student. Shigaraki raised his arm and pointed towards Rimuru.
"So what's that?"
Laplace did a respectful bow. "My, my, Mister Shigaraki, I would have killed this student here under normal circumstances. But she has a very, very unique Quirk. Your master might be interested in her, would he not?" He responded. Tear said nothing. Shigaraki lowered his arm.
"…fine. Whatever. We need to get a move on, anyway. Capturing and taking away one of All Might's students will surely wound his pride as well. Especially if it's right in front of him!" Shigaraki remarked as he glanced back down towards All Might. Rimuru looked down towards All Might as well.
All Might…?! What's going on?! Rimuru thought, shocked.
"Come on, Kurogiri. Let's do this. The other Pro Heroes will be here shortly as well, we can't waste time." Shigaraki said.
"Is…is that Tempest? Her arms…!" Midoriya exclaimed as he looked over towards Laplace, Tempest and Tear. "That villain's got her!"
"I've got a bad feeling about this…" Asui remarked.
"W-we should get out of here, right now!" Mineta exclaimed.
"Asu-Tsuyu!" Midoriya said. Asui turned towards him. "You finally got it right. Nice. What is it, Midoriya?" Asui asked.
"Take Aizawa-Sensei for me!" Midoriya exclaimed, letting go of Aizawa and walking forwards.
"Sure…but what're you…" Asui responded.
And Midoriya charged forwards, running directly towards Nomu and All Might. "ALL MIGHT!" He exclaimed.
"Foolish." Kurogiri said as he materialized in front of Midoriya.
Midoriya. Kid! All Might thought. Don't!
Until suddenly, Bakugo jumped in from out of nowhere, smashing his fist into Kurogiri and blasting him with an explosion. "GET…THE HELL OUTTA HERE…DEKU!" Bakugo exclaimed as he smashed Kurogiri to the ground, his hand on the metal plates around Kurogiri. The villain was pinned.
Ice spread across the ground, freezing half of Nomu's body while not harming All Might. Todoroki stepped forwards. "So I heard you people are here to kill All Might…" He said. Kirishima jumped in, swiping his hardened arm towards Shigaraki, as the villain avoided the blow.
Milim leaped in from out of nowhere, smashing her fists towards Laplace as he jumped backwards to gain some distance, her fists instead impacting the ground. Tear jumped back alongside Laplace as well.
"Damn! Almost had him!" Kirishima remarked.
"What happened to your arms, Rimuru?!" Milim exclaimed.
"You're not all that. You misty mook!" Bakugo said as he pinned Kurogiri to the ground.
"…but scum like you could never kill the Symbol of Peace." Todoroki said.
"Kacchan…! Guys!" Midoriya exclaimed.
"Frosty…!" All Might remarked. It must be Todoroki! Such precise control, he's just managed not to freeze me! Thanks to that…his grip's loosened! He thought. All Might pulled himself out of Nomu's grip, jumping away and gaining some distance as he landed next to the students.
Shigaraki looked over towards Bakugo and Kurogiri. "You've pinned down our way out…well…this is a problem…" He remarked.
Bakugo laughed as he looked down at Kurogiri. "You slipped up, you bastard! And it's just like I thought! The parts you can turn into that foggy warp gate are limited! And you're using that misty stuff to hide your real body, yeah?! Am I right?!" He exclaimed.
"If your whole body was mist and physical attacks didn't work…you'd never say 'that was a close one'!" Bakugo said. Kurogiri attempted to struggle, only for Bakugo to push him further into the ground. "Don't move! If I decide you're doing anything fishy, I'll blow you straight to kingdom come!" Bakugo exclaimed.
"That's not very hero-like, dude…" Kirishima remarked.
"Not only have you beaten our level, but you're at full health…today's kids are really something…our League of Villains should be ashamed!" Shigaraki remarked. He then looked over towards Nomu. "Nomu. Take out the explosive brat. We need our escape route back."
Suddenly, Nomu pulled himself up and out of Kurogiri's portal. Todoroki's eyes widened as the right side of Nomu's body started to crumble and fall apart due to the ice, but he didn't die. "His body's falling apart, but he's still moving…?!" Midoriya exclaimed.
"What the…I thought his Quirk was 「Shock Absorption」!" All Might exclaimed.
Shigaraki chuckled as Nomu's body started to regenerate, healing incredibly quickly. "I don't remember saying that's all he can do. This is 「Hyper Regeneration」. Nomu is a super-powered living sandbag designed to withstand everything you've got." Shigaraki remarked.
As Nomu regenerated, Milim charged forwards. "Young Nava, don't…!" All Might exclaimed, as Milim raised her arm and delivered a punch directly into Nomu's chest. But Nomu wasn't hurt. He didn't even react at all. Shigaraki tilted his head.
"The explosive brat's the target. I'd recommend you get out of Nomu's way if you want to live, girl." Shigaraki remarked.
Rimuru's eyes widened as she watched while being held by Laplace. Milim's attack did nothing?! How strong is that Nomu guy?! She thought. Nomu seemingly growled and glanced towards Milim, as she slowly looked up towards him, just realizing what she had done.
"Uh…is it too late to say 'sorry'?"
Nomu swung his left arm and delivered a tremendous backhand into Milim's face, launching her into the air and into the nearby water. "YOUNG NAVA!" All Might exclaimed. Shigaraki chuckled, as Nomu then turned towards Bakugo and charged forwards.
"That girl's not the only student you should be worried about, Symbol of Peace."
Within a single moment, Nomu was already in front of Bakugo. He's fast…! All Might thought as Nomu swung his fist towards the explosive student, before Bakugo could even register that he was there. All Might quickly leaped in front of Bakugo.
Nomu's fist impacted the Symbol of Peace, blasting him backwards with a tremendous amount of force as All Might crashed into a wall. A huge blast of wind rippled from the impact, forcing the other students and villains backwards. Before he could even figure out what had happened, Bakugo was suddenly right next to Midoriya.
I couldn't…see a thing! Bakugo thought.
"Kacchan?! dodged that? Wow!" Midoriya exclaimed.
"I didn't. Shut up, you." Bakugo responded.
All Might was still standing, his arms up in a defensive position, having taken Nomu's attack head-on. He was covered in bruises, as he coughed out blood. "This guy doesn't know how to hold back…" All Might remarked.
He took the hit for the kid. Shigaraki thought. "Anything to save a comrade, right? Just like earlier, when, uh…that one…the plain one. He came at me with everything he had. But violence in the name of saving others is admirable, isn't it, hero?" He exclaimed.
"You know what, All Might? That pisses me off! Heroes and villains both thrive on violence, but we're still categorized. You're good, you're evil. That's how it is! Symbol of Peace? Hah! In the end you're just a tool for violence, made to keep us down! And violence only breeds more violence. I'll show the world that by killing you!"
All Might looked over towards Shigaraki. "What a load of hooey. Idealistic criminals have a different sort of fire in their eyes. But you're just enjoying yourself, you big fat liar." He responded. Shigaraki chuckled.
"You got me. Saw right through…" Shigaraki responded.
"It's three-on-five." Todoroki said.
"But Kacchan showed us the mist man's weak point…!" Midoriya exclaimed.
"These are some brutal dudes, but with us supporting All Might…we can beat them back!" Kirishima said.
"NO! Get out of here." All Might said, putting his arm up in a 'stop' motion.
"Things wouldn't have gone so well if I hadn't just stepped in." Todoroki said.
"All Might, you're bleeding! And I think your time's u-ah…" Midoriya exclaimed.
All Might clenched his fist. "Right you are, Todoroki! So thanks for that! But fear not! Sit back and watch a Pro get serious!" All Might exclaimed.
"Nomu, Kurogiri, take him. Tear and I will handle the kids." Shigaraki said, as Tear nodded and walked over next to Shigaraki. "Now, let's clear this and go home!" He exclaimed, before charging towards the students alongside Tear. "They're coming! Get ready, guys!" Kirishima said.
All Might clenched his fist.
It's true that I barely have a minute left. My power has been declining faster than expected. However…I must do this! Why? Because…
All Might looked up towards the villains, a raging fire in his eyes.
I AM THE SYMBOL OF PEACE!
All Might charged forwards with tremendous speed, as Nomu ran forwards to meet him. Their fists collided, a huge blast of wind being released from the impact and blasting both the students and villains backwards. Shigaraki landed nearby. "Hey, you talked about his 「Shock Absorption」earlier, didn't you?" He remarked.
All Might smiled. "Yes, I did!" He exclaimed, before throwing another punch, and another, as his fists met with Nomu's again and again, each punch releasing an immense blast of wind that blasted away the surrounding students and villains. Bakugo was blasted back alongside Midoriya.
"A head-on fistfight?!" Midoriya exclaimed.
"W-wow!" Kirishima exclaimed.
Kurogiri was blasted back alongside Shigaraki, Tear and Laplace, who was still holding Rimuru. "I can't get near them!" Kurogiri said.
All Might slammed his foot into the ground as he continued his barrage of punches into Nomu's body, the villain doing the same as they faced eachother head-on. "If your Quirk isn't 「Shock Nullification」, but 「Shock Absorption」…THEN THERE'S A LIMIT TO IT, RIGHT?!" All Might exclaimed as he continued his barrage of punches, the ground around them being ripped and blasted apart by the mere force of their attacks.
Nomu delivered a punch into the bleeding left side of All Might's chest, knocking the hero back for a moment, but he stood his ground as he stepped forwards, launching himself into the towering villain and pushing him backwards with pure strength. "Made to fight me? If you can withstand me at 100%...then I'LL FORCE YOU TO SURRENDER FROM BEYOND THAT!" All Might exclaimed.
Shigaraki's eyes widened as All Might intensified his offensive, starting to overwhelm Nomu as the towering villain was pushed backwards by the Symbol of Peace's attacks. Midoriya's eyes widened as he watched the battle. He's bleeding…while giving it his all…! He's not swinging randomly…every…every single hit…is more than 100% of his power! Midoriya thought.
All Might yelled a battle cry as he smashed Nomu backwards through the air with his fist, before jumping in pursuit of the villain. "A hero…can always break out of a tough spot!" All Might exclaimed as Nomu regained his footing, charging towards the Symbol of Peace.
They smashed into eachother, launching into the air high above the ground. Nomu smashed his fist downwards, but All Might blocked it with his arms, before countering and blasting Nomu backwards, before slamming his feet into the towering villain and smashing him into the ground before blasting him into the air.
All Might jumped high into the air, grabbing Nomu by the arm before spinning around again and again, using his immense strength to throw the monstrous villain directly into the ground. The ground erupted and was blasted apart by the impact, as All Might landed next to Nomu.
"Hey, villain…"
"Have you ever heard these words?!"
All Might clenched his fist, using his pure power as he raised his arm. "Go beyond!" He exclaimed, before driving his fist directly into Nomu's chest.
"PLUS ULTRA!"
The sheer force of All Might's punch blasted Nomu high into the air, the power rippling in the area around the Symbol of Peace as Nomu was launched through the air, directly through the ceiling of the Unforeseen Simulation Joint and out into the sky above, the villain being blasted so far into the sky that he went straight through two clouds, which were blasted apart.
All Might clenched his fists as he slowly turned towards Shigaraki, Kurogiri, Tear, Laplace and the captured Rimuru. "Sure, I'm slowing down…in my prime, just five of those punches would've been enough." All Might remarked, turning towards them as he raised his fist and clenched it.
"But that was just over 300 right now."
