I grinned. We had five minutes to come up with a plan. I had one in mind but in case my teammates didn't like it we still had the time, "I have a plan... Would you two like to hear it?" It was incredibly simple but our quirks worked extremely well together. The plan was flawless.
Kodai nodded, "Mph," She didn't like speaking if I recalled correctly. I took the nod as a yes and looked to Tsunotori.
Tsunotori nodded as well and grinned, "Lets hear plan!" I would have to help her with her Japanese in my spare time wouldn't I? She forgot a word.
I'd ask if she wanted some help later. But my grin grew as they agreed and I began to explain my plan to my teammates who nodded.
Soon it was time to begin.
"Nendo's plan is simple but incredibly effective," Midoriya muttered as he looked at the screen. He had his notebook out and was scribbling down all the knowledge he could gleam about his classmates quirks.
Kirishima grinned, "His plans are always the best. Sometimes they may be unmanly but Nendo's plans are the best!" Kirishima and Ashido knew Katsu for a bit. Midoriya would take the sharp toothed boy's word for it.
Uraraka perked up, "How do you know Nendo anyways? You Ashido, and Nendo seem close," Uraraka asked the question that sat on his mind. Maybe they knew more about Nendo's quirk? Nendo had told him a bit of how it worked but he wanted more. He'd be able to see Kodai and Tsunotori's quirks in action here.
Ashido appeared, "Well Blasty, Kiri and me been training together for five months. Blasty only discovered his quirk's true powers the day we decided to train together so we had to get him up to snuff," The hands were obvious mutations. How did Nendo not know he could make explosions?
Uraraka looked suprised, "You only have known each other for Five months? You three seem really close for that,"
Kirishima nodded, "We've spent a lot of time together though. Nearly every waking day for the past five months was spent training and talking. Nendo's a strategist and analysis. He may not look like it but he's really smart. He's been helping us improve our quirks for like half of that time. Of course we'd be close!" Makes sense to Midoriya. Midoriya looked at the time and noticed there was thirty seconds left until the battle started. He then looked at the screen and noticed Nendo had created roughly thirty clay dragons with three of them enlarged. One of them had the bomb inside. They were also being guarded by 2 of Tsunotori's horns which were also enlarged to about the size of a car. They had capture tape attached to each dragon and horn. Ready to capture.
Iida looked to All might, "Is that even allowed?"
All might flipped through a book that read 'Teaching for Dummies 101' and grinned, "Why yes it is! They are villains, capturing the heroes would be beneficial to them... I have no idea where they got the capture tape though young Iida,"
Ashido grinned oblivious to what was currently going on with her sensei and clasmate, "Yeah and we had to get blasty to stop being such a loner! He seriously had an issue with being around people for the first two months,"
Before the conversation could go on Midoriya pointed to the screen, "Its starting,"
The hero team went into the building once All might had said they could.
"Alright, I have a plan," Kojiro considered himself a smart cookie. His quirk required him to be smart. If he wasn't then he wouldn't be able to use his quirk to its best ability. So he already had formed a plan in his mind. Normally he was shy but he needed to win. He had to prove to himself his quirk was useful.
His two teammates nodded and Tokoyami spoke up first, "Would you please share it?" Good. Kojiro wanted his Teammates to hear his idea.
Kojiro wished he could grin, "Well first Tokage how many pieces can you split your body into?" He looked to his green haired teammate when he said that. The more the merrier.
Tokage thought for a second, "Currently fifty," Oh how Kojiro wished he could grin. Perfect. 50 was a large enough amount for his plan to work.
Kojiro nodded, "Alright. The plan relies on that. You would need to split your body up into fifty pieces. Said pieces will be used for recon and if you can, to touch the bomb. Whilst you are doing that I will set up glue traps in case one splits off from the others," He then looked to Tokoyami and Dark Shadow, "You two are our brawlers. And our most important team member. Nendo likely has explosives set up with Kodai's quirk making them larger. Tsunotori is backup. They are likely protecting the bomb. Dark shadow can tank the explosions well enough hopefully. Whilst they are doing that I can use my glue to keep them trapped in place," Dark shadow was pleased by being referred too as a second entity.
Tokage nodded, "Solid plan Bondo. Although I think I should keep maybe five pieces here to warn you prematurely,"
Tokoyami and Dark shadow agreed, "That would be most wise. That way we can prepare without using up too much time,"
Kojiro nodded, "Alright. Now lets begin,"
"Alright everything is in place," I grinned at our handy work. Kodai's quirk was truly beautiful. The ability to shrink and grow any object was a blessing. As long as it was non-living then it could be shrunk or grown. Growing was what we were going for this time. 3 large dragons with 20 mildly large ones. The bomb inside one of the large ones, Two of Tsunotori's horns on standby ready to fuck shit up.
I almost felt that this was unfair. It really was. Kodai could enlarge the other 20 dragons and force them to concede defeat with the sight of them all alone. But I wasn't going to get cocky. Our opponents had to be strong. They got into UA after all. From what I seen about everyone else's quirks, Tokage would be reconing us right now. I looked to my Teammates, "Tokage is likely in the room right now. If I am correct about her quirk then she can do more than what she showed yesterday. Be careful and look out for sneak attacks,"
My teammates nodded and didn't speak. We were ready.
"Holy shit he knew I was here!" Tokage said as her mouth was floating. One of the five body parts she kept with her teammates, "I don't see the bomb anywhere. All I see is three large clay dragons and 20 from my count, smaller ones," The mouth then grimaced, "Also Tsunotori has two car sized horns waiting to attack," Not good.
Kojiro nodded to himself, "Nendo is smart. He likely guessed. Kodai likely Shrunk the bomb and enlarged the horns. Alright then we'll move in soon," Kojiro looked to Tokoyami and Dark Shadow, "Alright lets head out. Kodai likely has the bomb. Top priority is capturing her,"
Tokoyami nodded and they began to walk to the location Tokage had told them to come too
"Looks like Nendo's plan worked," Midoriya said as he watched the screen. They thought Kodai had the bomb instead of it being inside a dragon's belly.
Uraraka nodded, "You think they'll figure it out?" Midoriya guessed they would. It'd be too late though.
Kirishima shook his head, "Not likely. Nendo will do his best to make sure they're fooled,"
From behind them Kendo shook her head, "Kirishima's right. It makes sense for Kodai to have the bomb and if what he said was true then Nendo would do his best to keep up that illusion," True. If your opponent didn't know where the target truly was then you could leverage that to your advantage.
Before they could speak again they watched Bondo and Tokoyami enter the room of explosives and Tsunotori's horns. They saw the most talkative of their enemies grin, "Welcome to hell! By the way your teammate is being dealt with right now," They saw two more of Tsunotori's horns attack Tokage with the capture tape, poised to capture. His grin then grew, "Fly my art! Destroy the heroes with your power!" He willed three clay dragons to come to life.
Said clay dragons had capture tape in between them. Tokoyami called to Dark Shadow, "Dark shadow!" Dark shadow came out of his cloak once more and prepared to block and destroy the capture tape with the explosives.
The middle dragon shrunk and exploded and Dark shadow shrunk because of the light. This gave the dragons the time to wrap around Tokoyami. The other two dragons collided into each other and exploded behind Tokoyami in a low powered explosion.
"Young Tokoyami was captured by the villains, he's out," All mights voice boomed through the speakers.
Bondo looked at Nendo questioningly, "How did you get that capture tape?" He prepared a blast of glue, hoping the boy would Monologue. Meanwhile Tsunotori had chased Tokage away. It wasn't looking good for the heroes.
Nendo grinned as he hopped onto one of the larger dragons which took flight, "I have a few smaller clay dragons or doves in reserve for recon. I used one and stole some from the bin," Bondo was about to ask something but decided not too. Nendo nodded to himself, "Now Hero give up or I shall blow this building into the sky,"
Questions of 'is he allowed to do that?' were heard throughout the fake building's entrance but nothing was answered as Bondo stared down his opponent.
Bindo sighed. 'We can't win this. Kodai isn't anywhere in sight anymore and Tokage is getting chased around,' The boy thought sadly before looking to his opponent. He tried to contact Tokage through comms but he couldn't clearly, "I see no way to win this at the moment, Tokoyami is out and Tokage isn't anywhere in sight and I can't hear her over comms either. I speak on behalf of the Heroes team when I say this, We forfiet,"
"Are you sure young Bondo? You can still fight," All mights voice spoke through the speakers of the fake building
Bondo nodded, "I see no way to win this. Kodai isn't in sight either and I assume she has the bomb. Tokage hasn't spoke to me yet and Tokoyami and Dark shadow are captured," He then gestured to Nendo, "He has us in checkmate,"
All might nodded outside of the building, "Alright then, Hero team loses. Villain team wins,"
"So who was the MVP of that battle?" All might asked as soon as everyone was assembled and no clay bombs were in the building.
Iida raised his hand, "That would be Nendo sir," He chopped the air, "Nendo created a plan, had his teammates use their quirks well within the plan, and they preformed it flawlessly," He then pushed up his glasses, "Not only that but he acted the part of a villain well," That earned Iida some brownie points in my book. Everyone nodded in agreement and I was bashful. It was a simple plan.
All might nodded, "Alright since you are in agreement we can move onto the next battle!"
I watched the screen curiously. I knew Bakugo was Midoriya's bully from guessing and observing but did All might know that too? I couldn't interfere with the battle no matter how much I wanted too. If Bakugo did try to go too far though I'd be more than willing to send a majority of my current clay resources after him. This was supposed to be an exorcise, not a war.
Bakugou was ordering around his teammates whilst Midoriya was muttering to Ashido and Uraraka. I was only able to catch some of it, "I'll take on Kacchan... I.. entire... lives"
Ashido and Uraraka nodded, "Any other ideas Greenie?" They were looking to him for ideas. Makes sense. Also Ashido sucks at planning and strategy.
Midoriya nodded, "You are most suited for taking on Iida. Your acid can melt his armor and make him defenseless. Not only that but... " The pomeranian's shouting on the TV made things harder to hear, "And Uraraka, Tetsutetsu is a sitting duck mid air. You are a perfect counter to him," I caught that. Okay so divide and conquer. I'd still step in if need be. I then looked to Bakugou excitedly chattering about his gauntlets. I'd also be having strong words with All might or Eraserhead-sensei about letting them have those. But I wouldn't allow a bully to hurt his victim anymore if I could help it.
Kirishima then bumped me with his elbow, "Hey any idea what they're saying?"
I nodded, "Midoriya's plan. they plan on dividing and conquering. Midoriya takes Bakugo, Ashido takes Iida, and Uraraka takes on Tetsutetsu. They are more or less perfect counters for each other in some way. I'd wager Midoriya knows how Bakugo fights somehow, Ashido can melt Iida's armor and burn his feet or even his engines, and Uraraka makes Tetsutestsu weightless. Once that happens he's basically a floating duck,"
Kirishima nodded, "I bet their fights are going to be manly then!"
I shook my head, "The latter two maybe but take a look at Bakugo,"
Kirishima looked at him, "Yeah and what about him?"
I had all the evidence(minimal it may be) in my mind, "He calls Midoriya a Deku with hatred, Bakugo's explosions set Midoriya off, He flinches at Bakugo's words a lot, and he is a late bloomer," The fact that Ashido hadn't seen the signs and tried to Talk no jutsu Bakugo yet is fucking insane(Yes I know what Naruto is. Great Anime. Deidara is our lord and savior and I aspire to be like him every day)
Kirishima sat there for a minute, "You think Bakugo is a bully?" I could tell he was conflicted.
I nodded, "Either Midoriya's main bully or one of them,"
Kirishima nodded, "I see it too... We need to help Midoriya don't we?"
I nodded again, "We do," I then pointed to the screen, "We can only watch now,"
Kirishima sighed and nodded.
Bakugo stared Midoriya down, "You shouldn't have come to UA you shitty Deku. I won't let you keep looking down on me," His voice was a low growl. His palms were cracking to life.
Midoriya stared Bakugo down in return, "I earned my place here Kacchan. I won't let you talk to me that way anymore," The fact he suddenly grew a spine was a miracle.
Bakugo growled, "You are a fucking useless Deku. You shouldn't even be here," Explosions then crackled to life on his palms, "I'll beat you until you go to GENERAL EDUCATION!" his voice got loud. He then propelled himself toward Midoriya.
Midoriya's gaze soffened, "I'll prove it to you Kacchan. I DESERVE TO BE HERE!" As Bakugo flew toward Midoriya and cocked a fist back for a punch Midoriya grabbed his arm and stopped the punch. He tried to kick Bakugo. Bakugo grabbed his leg and they locked eyes.
Bakugo braced an explosion with his other hand, "DIE!" an explosion rung through out the hall, destroying the upper left part of Midoriya's mask and slightly burning him. Midoiya then successfully kicked Bakugo back. Just a tiny bit. Bakugo grit his teeth and sent an explosion toward Midoriya again. A powerful one. He pulled the pin on his grenade bracer beforehand.
The green haired kid used that opportunity to escape. Making contact with his teammates.
I looked at All might, "Why was he allowed to have that?" A highly volatile person in possession of high powered artilery, "Doesn't he need an explosives license to use those?" He could use his quirk without one(Only at UA of course.
All might flipped through his book worriedly, "Uh I... uh, You are right young Nendo. Young Bakugo isn't supposed to have such high powered support items until he gets proper credentials. Those are very dangerous. Thank you for pointing that out Young Nendo,"
I nodded, "Just want my classmate to be safe," Also anything to spite Bakugo.
I looked at the other screens. Ashido was using her acid to attempt to Keep up with Iida. She was leading him away from the bomb whilst slowly melting his armor. Nice. Iida was landing some hits but Ashido's acid kept him at bay.
Uraraka was trying to avoid Tetsutetsu. She could end it easily. But she'd probably go down in one good hit from the steel boy. Plus there was nothing she could use as a weapon as Iida took everything useful out of the room. Unless... Was this part of Midoriya's plan. I watched Midoriya lead Bakugo somewhere. He was talking to Uraraka.
Oh the fucking idiot was planning on facing Bakugo. Would he use his quirk here? He hadn't used it so far. He hadn't gotten the best control over his quirk yet. He could not break his body completely but still. It'd be very close to breaking.
Uraraka nodded and began to head over to a pillar in the room. The one thing Iida or Tetsutetsu couldn't move.
"DIE SHITTY DEKU!" Bakugo sent another explosion toward Midoriya who dodged it even in close combat.
Midoriya shook his head, "I WON'T. I WON'T LOSE TO YOU TODAY KACCHAN," Bakugo grolwed even more as he was punched in the face.
He jumped back slightly, "FUCK YOU SHITTY DEKU!" He grabbed the other gauntlets pin, "DIE DEKU!" he pulled it.
It was then I saw green lightning arc throughout Midoriya. It was only for a second and I saw the pain in his face as he did it. He grabbed Bakugou's hand and aimed it to the air... Where the pillar from before was.
*BOOM!*
Upstairs the explosion was felt as it crashed through the floor. Sending the pillar in the air. Tetsutetsu looked surprised, "What the?" The boy was then smacked by a zero gravity stone pillar with a satisfying thud and Uraraka used the pillar as a boost
She touched the bomb, "Got it!"
I looked away from the screen and saw All Might grin. Even though Bakugo looked fucking pissed, "Winner, Hero team!" He said that with a tone of relief.
I let out a sigh of relief I didn't even know I had inside me. I looked back at the screen and saw medical bots carry Midoriya out of the building and into the nurse's office on site.
Uraraka waved toward me, Kirishima, and Iida who sat down again. Ashido went to go sit down as well, "I'm going to go see if he's okay. Anyone want to come too?"
I stood up, "Yeah gotta make sure the idiot didn't break anything again. I am so going to figure out how his damn quirk works so that won't happen again," I mumbled that last part to myself although I saw some people heard that.
I looked at the TV in the office and sighed. Todoroki's battle was a massacre... He froze the entire battlefield as soon as he could and the enemy team lost.
I then looked at Uraraka and Izuku whom had passed out from his energy being used up... Turns out he strained his entire fucking body, "Well that was a fun six minutes. When he wakes up please tell him about the legendary scolding I am giving him for using that much of his quirk. I told him to use less,"
Uraraka nodded, "I will don't worry. Good luck with your fight by the way! I can imagine your second opponents will be tough,"
I nodded, "Oh they will be. By the way you did a nice job against Tetsutetsu. You should look into some martial arts though. That'll help a lot with your fighting style," Then opened the door to leave, "Also if you need help ask me or Midoriya. Preferably greenie. His analysis of quirks is dead on and he'll help for sure," I then left
Kirishima wouldn't know what hit him.
Alright we're back and I'm not dead. Originally I had wondered "how the fuck will I write this?" But then I just decided fuck it and now here I am at 4 am not even hiding I'm awake from my parents. *shrugs* I've got all my school done for the week anyways. Anyways Next chapter is the final fight of this Mini arc before we get into some more stuff before USJ.
Hopefully you all enjoyed tho. I enjoyed writing this but damn I'm tired. I have a lot of ideas already by the way.
Also new update schedule is probably here to stay. This is the start of it... But I've been known for breaking update schedules before. So no promises!
Stalk out!
