Well, Hello there again.
This time we have the sixteenth chapter of the story.
Nothing more to say let's dive right in.
Disclaimer: I don't own any character everything belongs to Kohei Horikoshi.
"Hello" – People Talking
"Cool" – People Thinking
- *Hello* - Talking through the radio
"I am here" - All Might/Machine/Dark Shadow Speaking.
"He is the one" – All Might/Dark Shadow Thinking.
Chapter 16.
Battle of 10 million.
- * Here we go. Let the countdown begin. *-
THREE.
- "Our objective…"- Said Bakugo.
TWO.
- "… is only one."- Said Todoroki.
ONE.
- "As long as we follow the plan, everything will be fine."- Said Yamikumo.
START.
Suddenly every team started charging against Izumi's team.
- "This is the price we pay for being first place. Your choice Midoriya."-
- "Easy. We run! Hatsume-san, Uraraka-san, watch out your heads."- Izumi said while she activated a jetpack, courtesy of Mei, and then start flying.
- "I don't think so."- Said Jiro while using her jacks to try and grab the 10m points. But they were blocked by Tokoyami's Dark Shadow.
- "Good work Dark Shadow. Cover our blind spots."- Said Izumi to the Shadow.
- "Yes"- Answered the Quirk.
- "DEKU!"- Suddenly Bakugo appeared above them and was about to steal the 10M points.
Luckily Izumi managed to grab Bakugo's arms. – "Sorry Kachan, but I can't let you take these points."- She said before kicking Bakugo away.
Luckily for Bakugo, he was saved by Sero's tape.
- "We are about to land." – Said Uraraka.
The team landed safely thanks to Mei's inventions.
- "Yes! Thanks to Hatsume's inventions and Uraraka's Zero-Gravity we can land safely"- Said Izumi while putting a headband in her neck.
- "Wait. Deku-chan. Since when you have another headband?" -Asked Uraraka.
- "It's Kachan's headband. I grabbed it when he tried to steal ours. I think he didn't notice it. It's like an insurance if someone takes the 10 million." -
- "Wow. You are so smart."- Said Uraraka.
- "Damn it. Come on."- Said Jiro to her team.
- "Wait. Where is your headband?"- Asked Sato.
- "What?!"- She said while at the distance Kinoko was adding another Headband to her collection.
- "Do not get overconfident, Midoriya."- Said Shoji while rushing at them.
- "What?! Shoji are you alone?! Come on let's move!"-
- "I can't!"- Said Uraraka. Her foot was trapped by one of Mineta's balls.
- "That's from Mineta!" – She than saw Mineta inside Shoji's arms. And suddenly a tongue tried to grab her Headband. It was Tsuyu, who was with Mineta and Shoji. She managed to avoid her tongue. – "We need to go!"- She activated the Jetpack and managed to escape, sadly one of Hatsume inventions broke.
- "My Baby!"- Screamed Hatsume.
- "Sorry, but al least we escape."- Said Izumi while her team landed.
- *It was an interesting first half. Let's see the scores of the teams! *- Said Present Mic when the screen showed the scores. – *Wait a minute…Besides the Midoriya team, the only teams with points are the Komori team, the Monoma team and the Todoroki team!"- The screen showed the scores.
1. Team Midoriya: 10000990 Points.
2. Team Komori: 1935 Points.
3. Team Monoma: 1190 Points.
4. Team Todoroki: 615 Points.
The rest of the teams had 0 points.
Everyone was speechless how they lost their ponts.
- "You all got so focused on the 10 million, neglecting your own bands. Giving others free rein to steal them without you noticing."- Said Yamikumo.
- "I must say that I am impressed Atanagi. Your plan worked very well."- Said Shinso.
- "My plans always work."- Said Yamikumo.
Flashback.
Yamikumo slapped the back of Tetsutetsu's head to snap him out the brainwashing.
- "Wha…? What's going on?"- He said.
- "Welcome to our team. What is your name?"-
- "I am Tetsutetsu Tetsutetsu. And who said I will join your team?"- Tetsutetsu said.
- "Look around. All the teams are already formed, I think you have no other option."-
- "Damn it. Fine! But we better get those 10 million."- Tetsutetsu said.
- "On the contrary. We don't want the 10 million."- Replied Yamikumo.
- "Why?! Everyone is going for the 10 million."-
- "Exactly. While everyone is distracted by the 10 million. We will steal as many headbands as we can to secure second place."-
- "I see. But, why second?"-
- "You see. In a marathon, you don't give your best from the start. You wait for the others to get tired in order to win."- Yamikumo said. – "Okay now the plan… as I said we will steal all the Headbands we can. Possibly, when half the time passes, they will show the points, that's when we change into a defensive tactic. Tetsutetsu, you will be the frontal horse. You will be our shield."- Testutetsu nodded. – "Shinso. You will go at the left. Use your brainwashing and make other teams defend us."- Shinso nodded. – "I'll go at the right and I will use my fire to keep other teams away. Kinoko you'll be the rider, you are the lightest of us all, protect the headbands." – Kinoko nodded.
- "Okay. Let's go."-
Flashback end.
Bakugo was pissed. Someone stole his points, and he didn't know who. Suddenly some claps where heard, it was Monoma.
- "It seems that you are all words."- Said while Bakugo was getting angrier. – "You bark but you don't bite. And so, you want to be number one. Poor you." –
- "That's it" – Bakugo thought. He made an explosion with his hands. – "Kirishima! Before Deku, we will destroy these extras!"- He said in a furious tone.
Meanwhile Izumi was facing a special team.
- "I knew you were coming for us. It was a matter of time. Todoroki-kun!"-
- "Soon. Your headband will be mine"- Todoroki simply said.
Suddenly a lot of teams surrounded both of Todoroki and Izumi's teams.
- "Kaminari" - Said Todoroki.
- "Finally! Indiscriminated discharge. 1.3 million volts!" – He said while unleashing an enormous quantity of electricity. Todoroki used a blanket to cover the rest of his team. Dark Shadow protected Izumi's team. Sadly, the rest of the teams were paralyzed by the attack, Todoroki used this and froze everyone, except Izumi's team.
- "No! The jetpack!"- Izumi said when the jetpack busted in smoke. – "I guess we don't have other choice rather than fight."-
- "Yes, but Kaminari is dangerous. His electricity can destroy Dark Shadow, but I think they don't know that."- Said Tokoyami.
- "So, let's use that to our advantage."- Said Izumi while staying at Todoroki's left.
- "Todoroki-kun. Prepare yourself"- Said Iida.
- "Iida?"-
- "After this I will stop being useful. So, make sure you grab them."- Iida said while preparing his technique. – "Torque Over: Recipro Burst!"- From one second to the next, Izumi's headband disappears. Todoroki's team, now behind her back, had the headband. – "I've been saving this move for the time to face you Midoriya!"-
- "No! The headband."- Screamed Uraraka.
- *WOW! In a twist of events, Todoroki's team took the 10 million. *- Said Present Mic. But then…
- "That was an impressive move Iida-kun. I never expected it. But I'm sorry to tell you it didn't work out."- Izumi said as she turned the headband around her neck, showing the 10 million points.
- "What?!"- Todoroki was shocked. He then saw the headband in his hand, and it was one with 665 points. It was Bakugo's headband. – "How?"-
- "Since I thought that all teams would go for the band of my head, I swapped it with the one that I took from Bakugo and hide the points by turning both. So, everyone would go for the wrong headband while keeping the 10 million safe. It occurred to me in the middle of the competition but apparently it worked."- Explained Izumi.
- *Incredible! Midoriya tricked everyone into chasing the wrong headband. * -Said Present Mic.
- "She created a secondary strategy in case her original strategy failed. Very smart."- Added Aizawa. While at the distance Yamikumo was smiling proudly.
- "Come on. We need that Headband."- Ordered Todoroki and his team charged at Midoriya's. Without thinking it he activated his left side but then…
- *TIME'S OUT *- Screamed Present Mic. At the same time Bakugo managed to take all of Monoma's Headbands.
Todoroki was shocked. Not because of what Izumi did. Because he realized he used his left.
- *Very well! Let's check the final Scores. *- Said Present Mic. - *First we have Midoriya's team. Who managed to keep the 10 million points from the beginning! Achieving a total of 10000325 points. *-
Izumi's entire team was happy to keep 10 million points and come in first place.
- * In second place we have Komori's team. Those with an incredible strategy managed to obtain 1935 points. *-
All the team was smiling proudly.
- * In third place we have Todoroki's team with a total of 1280 points. *-
All the team sighed while Todoroki was still shocked.
- * Finally. In fourth place we have Bakugo's team. With a total of 1190 points."-
The entire team was relieved to at least get through ... except Bakugo who was cursing at the top of his lungs.
- "Congratulations Mina-chan"- Tsuyu congratulated her classmate.
- "The truth is that Bakugo only wanted me because my quirk was useful against Todoroki. In the end we didn't even face Todoroki! I'd better have joined Midori's team."- Said the Pink girl.
- "Iida-kun. Why didn't you tell us about that technique?" – Asked Uraraka.
- "I said I would challenge Midoriya-san. In the end, it didn't work out since she had everything under control from the beginning."- Iida Said.
- "Speaking of Deku-chan. Where is she?!"-
…
…
…
- "What do you want to talk about ... Todoroki-kun?"- Asked Izumi. Todoroki pulled her away from the rest because he wanted to talk with her. – "Look. If we don't hurry, we will miss the food. And I want my Katsudon."-
- "You put me in trouble. And I almost broke my promise because of you." – Said Todoroki while looking at his left arm. – "Let me ask you something. Are you All Might's secret love daughter?"-
- "… Huh? N-No. I'm not." –
- "Still, there is definitely a connection between the two of you. Something that you cannot reveal. I suppose you know that Endeavor is my father. He never managed to surpass All Might. So instead, he came up with another idea."-
- "What are you talking about?"- Asked Izumi.
- "Have you ever heard about Quirk Marriage? My father is someone with money and power. Thanks to that he managed to marry my mother. So, my father procreated me with the simple motive of achieving what he could not. It's disgusting! I will never be his tool!"- After this he touched his scar. – "All I remember is my mother crying. He used to tell me: "Your left side is horrible" ... while throwing boiling water in my face. That is why I swore never to use my father's quirk. I'm going to get to first place without using my left side."-
- "I have always received help to progress. I am here thanks to all the help I have gotten. That is why I cannot fail. So, I accept your declaration of war!"- Said Izumi with a confident face. – "You too get ready, because I assure you that I am going to beat you!"-
After this conversation the duo went back to the arena.
- *Okay people! The third round is about to begin! Wait a minute… *- Present Mic started. - *It looks like the girls from class 1-a are up to some fanservice! *- He said while the girls from the class 1-a, except Izumi, where dressed in cheerleader outfits.
- "Mineta! You lied to us!"- Yelled Momo. – "I thought Aizawa-sensei asked for this…"-
- "Explain to me how do you managed to avoid this Midoriya."- Asked Kaminari. – "I'm glad I rejected Mineta's plan, at least I won't be killed by the girls."
- "Todoroki-kun wanted to talk with me so I guess I wasn't here by the time this happened." –
- "He is a damn pervert."- Yamikumo said. – "Then again… I can't be completely mad at him."- He thought while looking at Kinoko in the cheerleader outfit.
- *Okay! Let's begin with the third event. It would be a tournament of fighting one against one! *-
- "The matches will be decided at Random. Pay attention to the screen."- Said Midnight then the names appeared in the screen.
1. Izumi Midoriya VS Shoto Todoroki
2. Hitoshi Shinso. VS Hanta Sero.
3. Yamikumo Atanagi VS Mina Ashido.
4. Fumikage Tokoyami VS Momo Yaoyorozu.
5. Kinoko Komori VS Denki Kaminari.
6. Tenya Iida VS Mei Hatsume.
7. Tetsutetsu Tetsutetsu VS Eijiro Kirishima.
8. Katsuki Bakugo VS Ochako Uraraka.
- "W-What?! My first fight is against Todoroki-kun!"- Izumi thought.
- "It seems our fight will be earlier than I expected. Still, it doesn't matter."- Thought Todoroki.
…
…
…
-* Very well! The moment that everyone has been waiting for has arrived! *- Said Present Mic. - * Let's start with the first match. For one side, she got first place in the obstacle course. She managed to keep the first place in the cavalry battle. Let's see how far this talented girl can go. From the hero department ... Izumi Midoriya! *- Present Mic said while Izumi was stepping inside the arena.
- *From the other side. He is so cold that he gives a new meaning to cold shoulder. From the hero department… Shoto Todoroki! *- Present Mic said while Todoroki was stepping inside the arena.
- "The rules are simple. If the opponent leaves the ring, he becomes unconscious or surrenders. Victory will be for the one who remains standing. In case of severe injuries Recovery Girl will take care of healing you. So, go with everything!"- Said Midnight. – "Both competitors are ready?"- Todoroki and Izumi nodded. – "In that case… BEGIN!"-
- "Here I go!" - Todoroki threw a large pillar of ice towards Izumi.
- "15% Detroit Smash." - Izumi said as her released her fist causing a small shock wave that managed to break the ice.
People cheered.
- "What was that? She used less power, but she didn't injure herself."- Though Todoroki. Again, Todoroki threw another column of ice at Izumi.
The situation repeated itself and Izumi managed to break the ice with a punch. – "From what I know about Todoroki-kun's fights, he always attacks in an instant, so I don't have much data on him."- She then saw Todoroki's ice. – "Not even a 100% Smash could send him flying out of the ring."-
- "So, she wants an endurance match. I won't let her."- He thought as he launched another pillar of ice.
- "Delaware Smash"- Once again, Izumi destroys the ice pillar with her power, but in that, she noticed that Todoroki started running towards her, running on an ice pillar that was created as he advanced. – "I don't think so!"- Izumi said as he did another Detroit Smash, but Todoroki jumped before the pillar was destroyed.
Izumi jumped to get away from the blow from Todoroki, which when he made contact with the ground, it froze a part of it. But the ice began to make its way towards her, managing to catch her left foot and begin to make its way towards her full body.
- "No!"- She thought closing her left fist preparing a strong blow. – "25% Detroit Smash!"- When Izumi struck, she managed to destroy the ice, but this time she also managed to push Todoroki back.
- "That was stronger than before"- Said Todoroki while looking at Izumi who was holding her left arm. – "Are you trying to stay away from me."-
- "He is very strong" - Izumi thought and then looked at her left arm. - "My arm is numb; it hurts but at least it is not injured. I will try to use only my right arm and hand until my left arm relaxes." – At that Izumi looked at Todoroki and noticed something. – "He is shaking"-
- "I will defeat you!"- Todoroki said to later throw another pillar of ice. The ice pillar was getting closer and closer to Izumi, who was looking down, it seemed that it was going to receive the attack but ...
- "I don't think so"- She said to destroy the ice pillar. – "You are shaking Todoroki-kun. There is a limit of cold which your body can withstand. Wouldn't it be easier to use your fire to provide heat to your body?"- She closed her fist. – "Everyone is fighting using their maximum power. To win and achieve their dreams. So ... COME TO ME, GIVING ALL YOU HAVE!" –
- "All I have?" Did my old man buy you! I am pissed!"- Todoroki said and then ran towards Izumi but his movements were slower, something that Izumi noticed.
- "You will not be able to do anything from very close."- Todoroki thought at the moment of taking a slight leap towards Izumi, however Izumi moved at that moment, crouching down and clenching her right fist.
- "Use all your power!"- Izumi yelled at the moment of giving a strong blow to Todoroki's stomach sending him to fly. However, Todoroki managed to freeze Izumi's left arm.
Todoroki got up. - "Why are you going so far?" - He asked.
- "Because I want to live up to everyone's expectations" - Izumi said. - "I want to be a great hero." –
- "Shoto"- A voice spoke in Todoroki's mind.
- "That's why!"- A loud blow snapped Todoroki out of his thoughts. – "I will defeat you!"-
- "Shut Up! I will never use his power!"-
- "It's yours, isn't it?!"- Screamed Izumi.
- "It's okay for you to become what you want to be."- Shoto remembered his mother words. At that moment a large amount of fire came out from Todoroki's left side.
Izumi smiled at this.
- "Why are you smiling?"- Asked Todoroki. Izumi put a serious face. – "Don't blame me for what happens next."- At that, Todoroki began to create a large amount of ice while on his left the fire burned strongly.
- "I should say that!"- Izumi said as she prepared for a powerful attack.
- "Midnight! If they continue like this, this will end very badly!" – Said Cementos.
- "Their bodies won't handle this."- She said while ripping a piece of her suit.
A large amount of ice shot out from Todoroki's right in the direction of Izumi. But she only ran as fast as she could to jump, dodging the ice, in the direction of Todoroki.
Now, Todoroki used his Left side, creating a large amount of fire which melted the ice into steam. – "Midoriya…"- Todoroki said as he prepared to launch a large amount of fire at Izumi, while the green haired girl prepared a punch. – "… Thank you."-
But before the crash. Barriers appeared in front of them creating a large explosion which destroyed the barriers as well as creating a large wind shock wave which made everyone hold onto their seats.
Once the fog cleared, everyone was surprised at the result. Todoroki was standing on the platform while there was no sign of Izumi.
- "M-Midoriya-chan is nowhere to be found. The winner is..."- Midnight started but before she could announce the winner… The debris in front of Todoroki flew out. Izumi stepped out of the debris to hit Todoroki's jaw and knocked him off the platform as she landed right on the edge of it.
- "I told you that I would defeat you."- Said Izumi while everyone was thinking on how she managed to do that.
- "She used the explosion as a distraction so she could get closer to Todoroki and wait for the moment to attack."- Yamikumo thought.
- "Todoroki-kun is off the platform ... the winner is Midoriya-chan. She advances to the second round!"- Following this, all the spectators began to cheer Izumi as she deactivated the One for All and left the platform.
…
…
…
- "OUCH!"- Izumi said while Recovery Girl was healing her.
- "That's what happens when you overexert yourself. At least you didn't break anything."- Said Recovery Girl. – "Take these pills. They will help you cure the pain. Now you have to rest to recover your energy."-
- "Thanks"- Said Izumi.
Suddenly all her friends entered the room. – "Midoriya-san! /Deku-chan! /Midori!"-
- "You scared me"- Toshinori said.
- "Are you okay?" – Mina Asked in a worried tone.
At that, Iida saw Toshinori. - "And you are?"-
- "He is Toshinori Yagi. He also helped me train."- Answered Izumi while Iida said hello to Toshinori. – "Guys. What happened with the next match?"- She asked.
- "Your fight against Todoroki left the platform in poor condition, there was a break until it was repaired."- Said Kinoko.
- "That was an awesome fight!"- Said Kaminari.
- "Yes! I bet a lot of professionals would want to recruit you."- Said Uraraka.
- "Your bet is right."- Yamikumo said calling everyone's attention. – "On the way here, I managed to hear various heroes say that they want to have Midoriya-san in their agencies, that someone with her potential would be useful."-
- "Silence please!"- Said Recovery girl. – "This place is still an infirmary. This girl needs to rest to recover. her muscles won't rest on their own. Come on, get out of here."- She said as she led the others out of the room.
Meanwhile Izumi started crying with happiness. Hearing what Yamikumo had said had filled her with happiness. – "I did it…"- Toshinori looked at her. – "I did it All Might"- She said with a big smile in her face.
- "Yes, Young Midoriya. You did it."-
…
…
…
The platform was repaired, and the matches were ready to continue.
- *After an amazing first fight we continue with the first round. First, I don't know what you've done to stand out but here you are. From the department of general studies. Hitoshi Shinso! *- Announced Present Mic while Shinso was entering the platform. – *Now, a boy with a funny face. From the Heroes department. Hanta Sero! *-
– "Both competitors are ready?"-Said Midnight while Shinso and Sero nodded. – "In that case… BEGIN!"-
- "It must be really cool to be a part of the hero department. Right?"- Asked Shinso.
- "Yes! It's really…"- Suddenly Sero stopped talking, he was staring at Shinso with a blank face.
- "I got you… Now, do me a favor and step out of the platform."- Ordered Shinso. Surprisingly Sero did what was told and started walking out the platform.
…
…
…
- "W-what is Sero doing?!"- Asked Kaminari.
- "It looks like he is being controlled"- Said Momo.
- "Brainwashing."- Said Yamikumo. – "That's Shinso's quirk. I'm not telling you how it works, you have to figure it by yourselves. Especially you, Midoriya."- Finished Yamikumo, making everyone nervous.
Hitoshi Shinso.
Quirk: Brainwashing.
Hitoshi's Quirk allows him to put someone in a state where they are forced to obey whatever he commands. He can only activate this power when his target verbally responds to something he says. Brainwashing needs to be intentionally activated and will not take effect if Hitoshi doesn't want it to.
…
…
…
Sero finished stepping out of the Platform.
- "…Sero-kun is out of the platform… Shinso-kun is the winner"- Said Midnigth a little shocked by the quick result.
- *Well… it was a short fight. Hitoshi Shinso advance to the second round! * - Said Present Mic.
The public started clapping at Shinso and started saying "You did good" and "don't worry" to Sero.
…
…
…
- *Okay. Everyone! Get ready for the third match. From one side, she is pink, energetic, and funny. From the hero department, Mina Ashido * - Present Mic introduced Mina. - *From the other side, he is always serious and almost never smiles, even so, thanks to his incredible strategies, he managed to go very far. From the hero Department, Yamikumo Atanagi! * - Present Mic Said while Yamikumo stepped inside the platform.
- "Come on Yamikumo! You can do it!"- Yamikumo was surprised to see who was supporting him. With the rest of the audience were Akane and Kenji Atanagi, supporting him. Akane especially, she was holding a sign with the word Yamikumo on it.
- "How did they managed to get some entrances?"- Suddenly he heard something else.
- "Come on bro! You have this in the bag!"- Another voice said. He turned to see some familiar faces in the public. They were Hanzo, Kuai, Mai, Takeo, and Sayumi. Or Scorpion, Sub-Zero, Kitana, Geras and D'Vorah respectively.
- "They are also here! How did they manage to enter?!"-
- "You have some fans, huh? That doesn't mean I'm going to lose."- Said Mina.
- "Okay. BEGIN!"- Said Midnight.
Long story short, Mina used her acid to move around the platform and hit Yamikumo. However, Yamikumo managed to evade all of her attacks. In one of these, Yamikumo stayed on the edge of the platform, seeing this, Mina took the opportunity to attack Yamikumo, however, the latter dodged the attack at the last second, causing the girl to lose her balance and fall off the platform.
- "Ashido-chan is out of the platform! Atanagi-kun is the winner"- Announced Midnight.
…
…
…
The next battle was Momo vs Tokoyami and it was another short fight. Tokoyami used Dark Shadow to quickly push Momo out of the platform before the girl could create anything more than a shield.
The next match was Kinoko vs Denki, Kaminari tried to finish the match quickly by using his Indiscriminatory discharge 1.3 million volts. However, Kinoko grew several mushrooms to protect herself from the attack and emerge unharmed from this attack. Unfortunately, for Kaminari, the boy was left in his "idiot" state after the attack, making it easy for Kinoko to throw him off the platform.
The next match was Iida vs Hatsume and was an… interesting fight. Basically, Hatsume used Iida as a guinea pig to promote all her inventions. After 10 minutes, at the end of her presentation, she left the platform herself, giving the victory to Iida.
The next match was Tetsutetsu vs Kirishima. The battle was the definition of close combat. They both hit each other hard, with their Quirks activated. Such was the ferocity that they both fell unconscious at the same time. The tiebreaker was a contest of strength between the two, the winner was Kirishima.
…
…
…
- *Ladies and gentlemen. This is the last match of the first round! Who will win?! Will be the explosive guy? From the hero department. Katsuki Bakugo! Or it will be the gravity girl? My personal favorite, from the hero department. Ochako Uraraka! *- Said Present Mic.
Bakugo and Uraraka stepped inside the platform, Uraraka was remembering the conversation she had with Izumi and Iida before her match.
Flashback.
- "I have a plan that can help you defeat Kachan."- Said Izumi.
- "That's great! With that you can win!"- Said Iida.
- "Thanks, Deku-chan… But I will be fine"- Uraraka said. – "I must stop depending on others to win! Right now, we are all rivals. That's why ... I will defeat Bakugo single-handedly. See you in the final." - Uraraka said giving Izumi and Iida thumbs up.
Flashback end.
- "Okay. Both contestants ready. BEGIN!"- Screamed Midnight.
Uraraka quickly charged towards Bakugo in an attempt to make him float with her Quirk. However, Bakugo fought back with an explosion which knocked the girl back.
- "Although the attack comes, it is very difficult to dodge it."- Thought Uraraka.
- "You better give up."- Said Bakugo. Suddenly, in front of him there was movement, Bakugo quickly attacked with another explosion, however, all he attacked was Uraraka's uniform shirt. The real Uraraka appeared behind Bakugo, hidden in the smoke from Bakugo's explosions. However, Bakugo quickly responded with another blast, this time hitting his target.
Uraraka quickly stood up, however, Bakugo appeared in front of her and released an explosion against her. – "You are slow"- Said Bakugo. Managing to resist the explosion, Uraraka charged again against Bakugo, however, the only thing she found was another explosion. The situation began to repeat itself several times in a row.
- "I can't keep watching this."- Said a pro hero. – "Hey! Do you really want to be a hero?! If you see that the difference in power is so great, just take her out of the ring!"- That hero screamed to Bakugo.
- "Yes! She is just a girl!"- Said another hero.
Suddenly, several boos, directed at Bakugo, began to sound.
- *The boos have started, to be honest ... I feel bad too ... Ouch. *- Said Present Mic, to later be beaten by Aizawa.
- *Does he seem to you to be playing with her? Was the one who said that a professional? If that's the case, you better get out of here, go home and find a new profession. He knows that his rival came here on her own merits. That is why he takes so many precautions. He is not underestimating her. *- After these words, everyone fell silent.
- "Thank you, Bakugo. Thank you for not letting your guard down."- Said Uraraka. At that moment everyone looked up to the sky ... to see a lot of debris in the air.
- "She always kept her distance from Bakugo. She always kept a low profile and kept Bakugo's attention on the ground while she prepared her weapons."- Yamikumo said, from the beginning, he realized Uraraka's plan.
- "I'm going to win!"- Uraraka yelled as she dropped the debris onto Bakugo. However, with a gigantic explosion, Bakugo destroyed all the debris.
- "That was close"- Muttered Bakugo.
After this attack, which also hit Uraraka, she collapsed to the ground.
- "Uraraka-chan can't continue! Bakugo-kun is the winner!"- Said Midnight.
- *Bakugo goes to the next round. With this match the first round is over! Let's make a quick rest and then continue with the second round! *- Said Present Mic.
…
…
…
Izumi headed to the infirmary to check on Uraraka. Halfway there she ran into Bakugo.
- "Deku…It was you, right? You made that strategy." –
- "No. It was all Uraraka's plan. She gave you a good fight"- She answered.
- "…Whatever."- Bakugo said before leaving.
Izumi was about to leave to the infirmary but was stopped by Sero.
- "Midoriya… I need to talk with you… It's about Shinso's quirk."- He said.
…
…
…
- *Ladies and gentlemen! It is time to start the second round. On one side we have Izumi Midoriya. On the other, Hitoshi Shinso. Who will win?! *- Said while Izumi and Shinso stepped inside the platform.
- "START!"-
