"I'm going to destroy you all." Bakugo roared, jumping up to hit Monoma.

However, pushing back his arm with the palm of his hand, the blonde brushed him off without the slightest problem. Then, putting his hand on Bakugo's skull, he caused an explosion, which nearly knocked the boy to the ground.

"What?" Sero wondered, creating tape to catch Bakugo. "Do they have the same power?"

Stunned, Bakugo couldn't react as Monoma's team closed in on them. But instead of targeting him, the blond slapped Kirishima's skull, while affirming.

"You Class A people, it's so easy to understand you."

"You little..." Bakugo growled, attempting to punch him.

Withstanding the attack, Monoma only hardened her skin and used a Quirk similar to Kirishima's.

" What ? "

"He copies our Quirks."

Seeing the fight in front of him, Shoji seemed undecided.

" What are we doing ? "

"We're fourth." Mineta affirmed. "We don't need to fight."

"Ribbit, we have to avoid the fight."

Nodding his head, Shoji pretended to run away. Unfortunately, he felt duct tape wrap around one of his arms, as Sero smiled at him.

"Sorry, but if Bakugo can't beat this guy, it's your headbands we're going to steal."

"Hey, let us go." Mineta ordered, throwing sticky balls.

However, his attacks were destroyed by Ashido, who fired a blast of acid.

"I'm the worst opponent for you." Ashido assured. "Whether it's your sticky balls, Asui's tongue, or Long-nose's projectiles, I can destroy them all before they can touch me."

Another tape wrapped around Shoji's arm.

"Long story short, you can't beat us." Sero assured.

"Really?" Shoji questioned him. "I think you forgot a detail."

Multiplying his arms, he let two other hands grab the duct tape and pulled with all his might.

" I'm not just a horse."

Unable to cope with the boy's herculean strength, Sero began to scream, while being pulled towards him. Feeling it hit his back, Kirishima was forced to move as well, nearly knocking Bakugo down.

"Hey, take it easy, asshole."

" He's too strong. " Kirishima retorted.

"Thirty seconds left." Present Mic announced.

Seeing his opponent in trouble, Monoma decided to walk away.

"I see that your defeat has already been announced! But don't worry, you can still admire my prowess, during the last event, as spectators! HAHAHAHA!"

At this moment, Bakugo remained strangely calm. Then, looking up at him, before glancing at Shoji, he said.

"Thirty seconds...that's enough."

" Huh ? "

Suddenly, Bakugo rocketed towards Monoma, leaving the rest of his team getting dangerously close to Shoji.

" Bakugo ? "

Clenching his fist, Bakugo pointed it at Monoma. However, one of his comrades created a shield in front of his captain, solidifying the air in front of him.

"I've seen your thing before." Bakugo roared, hitting the defense without hesitation.

And, to the surprise of his opponents, he broke it in an instant.

" What ? "

Then, Monoma felt Bakugo's hand take hold of her headbands.

"Don't make me laugh! Your protection...is nothing compared to that white-haired bitch! And once I defeat you all, number one...will be me."

Then, positioning his hands in front of him, he created two thrusters, which ejected him away from his opponents and whose shock wave ejected them backwards.

"Is that it?" Monoma wondered, falling to the ground. "Is that the power of Class A?"

Now in the air, Bakugo rocketed towards his team, while Shoji hit Kirishima with a barrage of punches. Multiplying the number of his arms, he seemed to gain the upper hand as Kirishima's skin cracked.

"Fifteen seconds left."

" ACID SHOT ! " Shouted Ashido.

" BIRD FIRE STAR !"

Burning Mina's acid, Usopp stopped her from touching them. For his part, Sero now had sticky balls on his arms, while Asui's tongue tied up the rest of his body.

"DAMN IT!" Kirishima growled, dropping to one knee.

"Hey, what the hell are you doing?" Bakugo roared as he rushed towards them.

"BAKUGO!" Shouted his comrades.

" NO !" Shouted Mineta.

Gritting his teeth, Usopp reactivated his thrusters, before aiming his slingshot at him.

" EXPLOSING STAR !"

"DIE!" Bakugo roared, aiming his fist at him.

" AND IT'S THE FINAL CONFRONTATION! " Present Mic shouted. " LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, THIS IS DEFINITELY NOT THE TIME TO LEAVE YOUR SEATS! AN UNPRECEDENTED CLASH WILL PUT BAKUGO AGAINST...PIPO! "

" PIPO ? " Shouted Usopp.

Still, keeping his focus, he launched his projectile, which Bakugo hit without hesitation. Nevertheless, despite the explosion it caused, Bakugo managed to get through the cloud of smoke, with just a few burns on his body.

"Fool! I master and fight with explosions! You can never beat me like this."

"I know that." Usopp retorted, standing in front of him.

widening his eyes, Bakugo had been surprised to see him in front of him, before realizing that Usopp's attack had only been intended to obstruct his field of vision.

" He got closer to me? "

Then, he saw Usopp's palm move in front of his face.

"Ultimate attack of the god Usopp."

" No, it's not possible. "

" IMPACT ... "

" I can't lose! Not against one without Quirk. "

" DIAL ! "

A shock wave created again, and Bakugo's body jerked back, as he spat blood.

One minute before the end of the test.

"Ida...we're counting on you." Todoroki affirmed.

As time is running out, Ida pushes his legs to the limit. And in the blink of an eye they disappear, Midoriya, Uraraka and Mei couldn't figure out what's going on. But Galadriel did, and at the last second she uses her shield.

However, seeming to be prepared for this, Ida hit it with all his might, as did his companions. Momo had created protection over them to allow Kaminari to use his lightning, while Todoroki had covered his arms with ice to strike the barrier.

Under the onslaught of the three attacks, the level 4 spell shield quickly began to crack.

"I…I'm not going to hold on." Galadriel affirmed, dropping onto Tokoyami.

"We're lost." Uraraka frightened, seeing the shield about to give way.

"Thirty seconds left." Present Mic announced.

Feeling the power of the triple attack about to shatter their defenses, Midoriya clenched his fist. Then he took a step forward.

" Tokoyami ... Let's change places. "

" What ? "

"I'm going up front." The boy shouted.

Tokoyami was going to retaliate. Nevertheless, knowing full well that Denki was preventing him from using his Quirk, he finally complied. After all, he knew that Midoriya was much more of a strategist than him.

" What... ? " Uraraka wondered, seeing them change places.

"Midoriya?" Galadriel questioned him.

Then, she saw his serious gaze, as red lines appeared on his arm.

"I'm still having trouble controlling my Quirk." The boy affirmed. "But, if I don't cross the line, I can use it without breaking my body."

At that moment, the shield gave way and Todokoki reached out to grab hold of Galadriel's headband. However, he suddenly lowered his gaze, seeing Midoriya stretch out his arm towards him.

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"

Immediately, Todoroki felt something! He felt the danger. And, before he could understand it, he positioned an arm in front of him, before covering him with flames. However, instead of being hit, he was surprised to feel Midoriya slap the air and the gust of wind he created forced his arm to move to the side.

" What ? "

Then, he felt his body freeze as Galadriel smiled, her hand already resting on his forehead. Removing one of the three ribbons he possessed, she affirmed.

"It's over for you."

Finding herself unable to move, Todoroki saw her pretend to grab another blindfold.

"No...I can't lose...not now."

At that moment, a huge crashing sound could be heard and one of the ice walls shattered.

"Huh?" wondered both teams.

"STOPPPPPPPPP!" Shinso yelled as he tugged at the cheeks of one of his horse.

Seeming to completely ignore him, Luffy ran towards the battle area.

"MUGIWARA?"

Seeing them running towards them, while pieces of ice had fallen not far from her, Uraraka immediately used her power to lift them, before throwing them towards Shinso's team.

"JUMP!" Ordered the boy.

Still disobeying him, Luffy punched several times in the void and multiplied the number of his arms. Struck by the many arms, the pieces of ice turned into ice dust.

Seeing this, Galadriel analyzed Luffy's behavior, while she noticed that his eyes were glassy.

"Tsss! This fool is getting controlled."

Then, noticing that Shinso's other 'comrades' had identical eyes, she had no trouble understanding who was controlling him.

"That kid...he can be dangerous."

However, losing his temper, Shinso was now furious.

"I told you stop! STOP!"

First hitting Luffy, he ends up grabbing his hat, so he can pull his hair.

"Are you deaf? I told you..."

At that moment, Luffy's hand grabbed his wrist.

" Huh ? "

Then, he felt a murderous aura, while Luffy turned to him, suddenly displaying an angry look.

"DON'T TOUCH MY HAT!"

"He... He broke free from the spell?" Shinso wondered.

" DRAGON'S WINGS !"

Hit by powerful gusts of wind, the team felt themselves backing away, as Galadriel targeted them.

"Huh?" Luffy wondered. "Jelly? Where am I?"

"We have to go." Shinso ordered him. "We have enough headbands to win ! It is not worth stealing those of these two teams."

"TSSSSS! SHUT UP! And who are you?"

Then, looking around, while noticing that Galadriel and Todoroki had headbands around their heads, he asked.

"Steal their blindfolds? I'll take care of that."

" WHAT ? "

"Ten seconds left." Present Mic announced.

"URARAKA!" Shouted Midoriya.

Immediately, the girl floated her team in the air. However, seeming to target them, as he lost to Galadriel earlier, Luffy completely ignored Todoroki and started to cause smoke to appear around him.

" GEAR SECOND !"

And before Shinso could do anything, he felt air hit his face, as Luffy moved so fast that he had to hold onto his clothes as tightly as possible.

" STOOOOOOPPPPPPPP ! "

Ignoring him again, Luffy rushed towards Galadriel's team, while covering his arms with haki and to jump.

"He's coming." Midoriya shouted.

In response, he saw Galadriel stretch her hand towards Luffy, while covering it with light.

"It's time to see if he can survive a level 8 spell!"

"GUM GUM..." Luffy started stretching his arm back before igniting his fist.

Seeing him do this, Galadriel dropped from Tokayami's back, before falling towards Luffy.

" GALADRIEL ! "

Then, teleporting, she found herself right in front of Luffy, before putting her hand on his chest.

" ALMIGHTY'S PALM ! "

"RED HAWK!" Luffy shouted, swinging his flaming fist back towards her abdomen.

Then an explosion took place in the sky

Lowering his arm, Usopp screamed in pain, as his second attack damaged his arm badly.

" DAMN IT ! IT HURT ! "

Still, his eyes widened, feeling Bakugo's hand gripping his arm, trying to keep himself from being thrown backwards. Then, staring at Usopp, he showed his bloody nose as he struggled to stay conscious.

Nevertheless, refusing defeat, he let out a battle cry, before aiming his fist at Usopp's face, to create another explosion.

This time, it was Usopp who ejected backwards and collapsed hard on Shoji's back. Unbalanced, the boy fell to the ground, causing his companions to fall as well. Targeting only one of them, Bakugo grabbed one of the boy's headbands, before removing it.

" NOOOOOOO ! " Cried Mineta.

It was at this moment that a powerful explosion took place in the sky.

"Grrrr! What is that?" Bakugo asked, as he got hit by gusts of wind.

Also struck by the wind, Ashido and Sero clung to Kirishima, before Sero managed to grab hold of Bakugo, to keep him from hitting the ground. For their part, Shoji's team was ejected to the side, like a large number of people.

" What is happening ? "

" It's the end of the world ? "

Then, a hundredth of a second later, Luffy crashed to the ground, along with Ojiro and Nirengeki. Wide-eyed, Shinso still held Luffy's clothes tightly, while the pirate's body shielded him from the blast.

For her part, feeling Dark Shadow grabbing her, Galadriel was in the air, while she seemed to be completely exhausted. Feeling her arm tremble, she looked at her hand with which she had managed to stop Luffy's fist.

Nevertheless, displaying a victorious gaze, gazing at Luffy's body, she affirmed.

" I won. "

Then she heard the end of the countdown.

"Again ... , I won again, Mugiwara."

Yet, as Dark Shadow led her back to the others, she noticed the wide eyes of her comrades.

"Maybe I was a little strong."

However, seeming to be surprised by something else, they just stared at her forehead. Normally, with the headband she stole from Todoroki, she had to have two headbands. However, apart from the one around her neck, she no longer had hers.

" Your ... Your headband ... ? "

" Huh ? "

At that moment, Shinso felt Luffy get up. Breathing with difficulty, Luffy seemed to be covered in wounds. Yet, displaying a smile, he finally raised his arm and showed a half-torn headband. During the attack, he managed to steal Galadriel's headband.

There was a great silence. Then, finally, Present Mic's voice shouted into his microphone.

"INCREDIBLE! LUCY HAS SUCCEEDED! HE MANAGED TO STEAL GALADRIEL'S HEADBAND! I WANT TO CURSE HIM! BUT I WILL STILL APPLAUD HIM!"

Immediately, the entire crowd in the stands began to applaud the boy's feat. For his part, Sanji heaved a sigh as he affirmed.

"That idiot! He's definitely going to kill me with a heart attack."

"Getting manipulated by a kid?" Zoro asked. " What a shame. "

" Tsss! You would have gotten yourself checked too. " Nami retorted.

Arms crossed, Jinbei asked.

"Who is qualified?"

Not asking herself that pointless question, Albedo had her points tensed, as she glared at Luffy angrily.

"He dared! He dared to steal the blindfold...?"

Raising his gaze, Demiurge caught sight of Galadriel's stunned gaze, as she placed her hand on her forehead.

" No, that's impossible. " Thought the demon. "It's comedy! It's gotta be comedy! Galadriel-sama...she can't lose to him."

Yet, as her team set foot on the ground, Galadriel was still flabbergasted, while Luffy had managed to steal her blindfold without her realizing it.

"I...I lost?"

"What are the results?" Tokoyami asked.

At this moment, the scoreboard turned black, while Present Mic declared.

" Time to introduce the finalist teams! First, Shinso's team, with 10,000,975 points. "

Getting up, grimacing in pain, Ojiro looked around, still not understanding what had happened.

" Huh ? "

" We won ? "

Amazed himself, Shinso stared at Luffy who was brandishing the blindfold in the air.

" Second...the Bakugo team with 1890 points. "

"YEAH!" Kirishima, Ashido and Sero cheered.

Nevertheless, they stepped aside, while Bakugo let out a cry of rage.

" DAMN IIIIIIIIIITTTTTTT ! "

" Third, with 765 points...Todoroki's team. "

Hearing this, Momo heaved a genuine sigh of relief.

"I really thought we were going to lose."

"YAAAAAAHHHHHH!" Kaminari affirmed, as he blasted his own brain.

"I couldn't go any further." Ida confessed.

For his part, looking down at his left arm, Tokoyami clenched his fist as he roared.

"I used flames...as my father hoped."

Hearing the results, Mineta cried out.

"Who came in fourth?"

Immediately, the team of Shoji, Tetsutetsu and Galadriel looked at the results and saw the names of their three teams displayed.

Shoji's team...490 points! Tetsutetsu's team...605 points! Galadriel's team...615 points.

"Here are the results! The fourth ranked team is Galadriel's team! It was fair but they qualified for the last round."

Hearing this, Uraraka rejoices.

" We did it. "

However, she seemed to be the only one happy with this result. Looking at the ground, Midoriya and Tokoyami remembered their performance and affirmed.

"I've been useless."

Galadriel, meanwhile, noticed how small the gap to team number 5 was.

" Ten points...if we had ten points down...we would have lost . " »

Clutching her fist of anger, she retorted.

" Never... I will never know defeat. " »

Seeing the results too, Mineta began to cry, while Tetsutetsu slammed his fist on the ground.

" We have lost ! "

"SHIT! SHIT! SHIT! SHIT!"

simply sitting on the floor, Usopp watches the result as well, before staring at his injured arm. His weak constitution had prevented him from hitting Bakugo with more power and that was what caused their downfall.

"I lost..."

sitting next to him, Shoji heaved a sigh. Still, he declared.

"We did what we could."

"Ribbit, the others were better than us." Asui agreed. "Let's be a good loser."

Hearing that the second trial was over, Luffy crossed his arms, wondering.

"Why was the ordeal so short? Yet I remember running for a long time and hearing someone shout stupid orders at me."

"Tssss!" Shinso growled as he walked away, while leaving his three comrades in confusion.

Finally, letting out a long exhale, Galadriel tried to push her anger out, before turning to her comrades.

" I am sorry. "

"Huh?" the trio wondered.

"If we lost, it's my fault! Mugiwara stole my headband and it was almost our loss."

"You…you don't need to be sorry." Midoriya retorted. "Truly, I...I..."

Clenching his fist, Midoriya moaned in shame.

"If I could have controlled my Quirk, I could have protected her."

"It doesn't matter that we lost our blindfold, we won because we managed to steal Todoroki's." Uraraka assured. "Our teamwork has enabled us to do this and I think we can be proud of it."

For only answer, she felt Galadriel place her hand on her head, before affirming.

" You're right. "

Then, she walked towards Luffy.

"Mugiwara ... "

"Huh?" Luffy wondered, turning to her. " Jelly ? "

"I won earlier…but I have to say I lost for the second round." Wearing a confident smile, she assured him.

"But I wouldn't lose again."

Just looking at her, Luffy retorted.

"You didn't lose."

" Huh ? "

Suddenly, Luffy left. Remembering their confrontation, he had been thrown away from Galadriel, while he was in Gear 2. For her part, Galadriel only seemed to have a few burns on her hand. She had managed to intercept his attack and had proven that she was stronger than him.

Even though Luffy had stolen her blindfold, he felt like he had lost to her again.

Seeing him leave, Sebas, who was standing behind the last row, couldn't help but stare at Luffy with interest. Even after being hit by such a powerful magic spell, he was still able to walk.

" Monkey D. Luffy...you deserve our interest. "

For his part, starting to laugh, Demiurge affirmed.

"She gave him the win."

"Huh?" Albedo wondered. "Don't say anything! Why would Galadriel-sama do that at the risk of losing?"

"She knew exactly what she was doing." Demiurge retorted. "First, she won the first round! Then, she let Mugiwara win the next one! And now, there will be the last round."

Showing a sadistic smile, he assured.

"Now Mugiwara must be hopeful! However, that won't be the case, when our lady later humiliates him! To destroy someone mentally, there is nothing better than giving him a fake hope. "

"The next event will start after a lunch break!"

Galadriel smiled at that. She wanted to eat more than anything. But kept her fatigue act just a little longer.

"Damn, it sucks to lose, but congratulations everyone, ribbit," Asui said.

"Oh, Gali, that was so amazing! How could you create such a powerful explosion?!" Said Ashido.

However, she fell silent as she felt Galadriel squeeze the pink haired girl's back.

"Gali?" Asked Ashido. "I'm hungry…I need to eat, take me something to eat…" Galadriel said sleepily.

"Oh, okay! I can't carry you, but here I'm going to give you a hand," Ashido said, clutching Galadriel by the waist with a blush on his face.

Immediately, Galadriel thought she heard a succubus growl in jealousy. Todoroki didn't react for a few minutes. He only looked down, feeling rage inside him. He felt someone watching him, and angrily he looked up. His father was looking at him. Todoroki hated that look on his face as it disappoints him in some cases. As if he cared.

Todoroki left, wasting no time talking with one of the Class 1-A members. Bakugo is no better and his mind races to any possibility that it was his fault again.

His temper got the better of him, and because of that, another random student took his blindfold. He wanted to take the blindfold from this girl with white hair. But now he tastes defeat again. Class 1-A walked out of the stadium feeling oddly happy.

They did their best, and there's no point in crying. Midoriya left, as he needed to think about something, and Bakugo refuses to stay at the same place where the white-haired girl eats. Todoroki isn't there either.

However, remembering something, Galadriel finally said.

"Pinky…can you reserve a table for me? I have to do something."

"Huh?" The young girl wondered.

But before doing anything, she saw Galadriel without going.

Having left the field, Usopp was still looking down. He had no excuse. He had lost a power duel against a high school student.

"I know I'm not the most powerful of the crew but...but do I really not have enough strength to defeat a high school kid?"

"I found you impressive."

Surprised, Usopp saw in front of him, while they were alone in the corridors.

"Nazarick?"

" It's really too bad you lost. " Affirmed the young girl. "Actually, I wanted to learn more about how you fight! You seem like a very versatile person to me."

"You talk, I'm weak." Usopp retorted. "If I was that impressive, I wouldn't have lost."

"In a real match, things would have happened differently." Galadriel retorted. "Bakugo just hit you! He didn't knock you out! If you had had more time, you could have fought back."

"Yeah! Maybe!" Usopp said, not really believing it.

Then, heaving a sigh, he declared.

"I wanted to prove them wrong."

" Huh ? "

"I wanted to prove that a sans-quirk could do amazing things! Even though I couldn't see myself winning this tournament...I just wanted to get as far as possible and impress people without showing anything superhuman. "

"And you succeeded.." Galadriel affirmed. "I'm sure God Pipo will be famous for the next few days."

"Don't call me Pipo. And by the way, what are you doing here?"

"I had to finish something." Galadriel assured. "

Suddenly the girl disappeared and Usopp felt her hands land on the back of his head.

"I think I can trust Mugiwara to keep a secret! Still, I'd rather not have any trouble! So, it's better if I make you forget part of your day."

" Huh ? "

Suddenly, Usopp felt like his brain went offline. Then, two seconds later, it started up again and the boy shook his face. Looking around, he noticed that he was all alone. Quickly remembering that he had just lost, he sighed.

"I lost...Still, I was confident! I thought I could win and go to the third round! Now I have to face the others and try to explain to him how I..."

Suddenly, he seemed surprised, while his memory failed him. Looking at his body, he saw that he was back to normal. Even his clothes were like before.

"But what...? My body?"

Then, trying to think, he couldn't remember at all how he had managed to participate in the tournament.

"I... I remember participating in two events! But... how did I pass myself off as a high school student?"

"Usooooooppppppp!" A voice called out, filled with kindness.

Freezing in terror, the boy felt shivers run down his spine. Then, turning around slowly, he saw Nami and the others, not far from him, while they were accompanied by Aizawa.

Looking a little annoyed, Nami was also holding Luffy's collar, which had various bumps on his face, as he had been grabbed a minute before.

Knowing what was about to happen to him, Usopp began to back away, all the while affirming.

"W...Wait! Nami...I...I have no idea what happened! I really don't know! I...I...I'm innocent."

Yet, two seconds later, he let out a cry of pain, feeling Nami's fist hit his face.

" ASSHOLE ! "

"Wow, Gali are you going to eat all that?!" Ashido exclaims looking at the ridiculous amount of food before Galadriel.

"Miss Nazarick, that's a lot of food for a woman...Even for me," Yaoyorozu said, with the same shocked face.

"She eats a lot, kero,"

Galadriel didn't care, as she chewed her food.

"It's not that much, it's just three plates of Takoyaki, two plates of Yakisoba, some Takiimo and 8 sticks of Yakitori… And a large soda," Galadriel said.

"It's… You still know a lot?" "Kirishima said.

Galadriel shrugged, not caring too much. Back in his old world, these plates were almost legendary. Only people at the top could enjoy this traditional Japanese cuisine. Thus, she will not miss the opportunity to taste this delicious food.

"I have to bring this back to Nazarick's menu! I should have done this a long time ago!" Galadriel thought happily.

Little did she know that a few students are trying their best to change things up for the next challenge. Todoroki, Bakugo and Midoriya.

And above all, she had revenge to take on Luffy. Initially, she had made him participate in this tournament, to be able to have a little fun. Nevertheless, this time, she seriously wanted to defeat him.

" Mugiwara... "
