Heroes vs Cadres
The S-class heroes were in shock as the clouds burst open, allowing them to see the conflict finally go by. Those with the enhanced optical sensors could tell that it wasn't going well, but it was too late for them to do anything to stop what was coming to the girl, who was blasted downwards at a nearly 90-degree angle from the summit of the tower. The shock was clearly on everyone's faces, but the first one to react was none other than Fubuki, crying out for her sister. She demanded to accompany them to help her. Zombieman was going to be the one to console her and say that even though that attack may have done her in, Fubuki immediately perished the thought and remarked that she could still feel her sister's presence.
It's faint, but it's still there, but she needs help. she was on the verge of dropping unconscious, she likely erected a barrier to protect herself but it likely wouldn't be enough to stop an attack on that level and she really would die, they needed to attack now to draw the attention away from her so that she could go over and heal her and to confirm the suspicions that Tatsumaki indeed was still alive that combination blast that had struck her and put her down was diverted directly into the air and away from harming even more of the planet but to them it also screamed almost like an SOS beacon that lit up the bright sky erasing the clouds for miles as it traveled through the air and almost as if banished the sun itself as night began to fall around them.
They quickly agreed with the younger sisters' plight and wanted to act quickly, but the plan would have to change at least somewhat from when they first had it. given the angle from where Tatsumaki was located it was almost directly near the transceivers of both bang and bomb so Fubuki would be joining the rescue unit for them which included mostly monsters such as; Scaledon, Forest General, Furakuro, Aki, and Koda but now they will be joined by both Fubuki and Goddess Glasses the monster women to watch over Fubuki so that nothing happens to her in place of her men which despite their bravado in volunteering to go at least three of them at least she could see that every one of them was shaking in their boots at the prospect of even approaching the battlefield given what they just witnessed which she couldn't blame them for even she was a bit off put about joining that fight.
She already drew her line in the sand so if the heroes lost this far then her time would probably be limited if the surviving monsters found out that she was indeed helping the heroes then her day would likely be numbered besides she still had her love knights to defend. Despite their differences throughout the planning and during the operation, Fubuki thanked the girl for her assistance. Before they all decided on a location for them to teleport to, they didn't want to all group up together right next to Tatsumaki to make themselves a large target, so they agreed on a midway point, giving the rescue team a distance of 7.5 kilometers to reach their intended targets.
The rest of the group that remained were the rest of the non-killing army, the blizzard bunch, the council of swords disciples, and the two other lighting disciples who joined a bit later were to remain on the sidelines which everyone took some issues with however Atomic Samurai and sweet mask remarked that they would be the rear guard team more specifically they would be in charge of taking out any of the Black Sperms creatures that attempt to escape from the battle, it can multiple a staggering amount of times and they don't want a single one of them to get away and cause trouble elsewhere, they weren't that strong individually but they could still cause widespread panic and damage if they managed to get into the cities, in fact, Sweet Mask order for the parameter heroes to be strengthened even more and for the heroes to wait on standby until they were dismissed.
Psykos laughed maniacally as she watched as the monster of a women finally fell from the sky, an unsuspected strong obstacle was finally overcome and she felt that she could finally get on with her extermination of humanity now that she was finally vanquished a small buzz in the back of her mind had called out to her however and it was none other than orochi, the voice came in weak and meager almost as if it was afraid to talk to her and she relished in that even more, a pet should know when it did something wrong when attempting to overthrow its master, she silenced it to allow her to relish more in its submissive before allowing it to speak to her, it reminded her of two individuals that could also pose a problem to their plan that being the disciple that had managed to beat him in the first place along with King himself and despite the anger she felt at her pet for once again spoiling her mood, it was correct in its assessment she could not allow herself to overjoyed with her power when other dangerous adversaries still could lurk in the shadows.
She asked her pet how Tatsumaki compared to the opponent he faced, and he remarked that while they were stronger than before, the bald man still had the strength to spare, even though his strongest attack failed to even put a scratch on him. At that moment, Psykos paused for just a moment, wondering if a person that strong existed and if King was even stronger than that man himself. It seemed unbelievable, but with her power, she still felt that she could win even against them. If she could cultivate Garou into another pet even stronger than the last and then absorb him, then she wouldn't be able to be stopped by anyone, she thought with joyous glee.
She was stirred from her thoughts when the combined blast that they had shot out was suddenly redirected upwards. She bit back and made angered shouts as she realized that the doum brat was still alive. She contemplated whether she should just shoot her again from here, but given the angle, she would slice right through the very earth, killing everyone, including herself, on top of that, so that ruled out that option. She could order the others to do it for her. The mention of other powerful individuals present stopped psykos from simply absorbing them and adding them to her biomass, so they could still be useful in doing that, but no.
She wanted the honors of doing things herself and personally especially given how much she looked down on and embarrassed her before, she went to move her body and felt multiple vibrations shake the temple that she found herself perched on and again a weak voice sounded from behind her, she allowed the creature to speak once more, she had stun when the monster could still somewhat defy her to move but the monster explained that if they were to move now and disconnect from this very tower then they would dramatically reduce in power, Tatsumaki had not only done severe physical damage but atomic damage to almost their entire network that he was trying to fix and repair as they spoke, she asked her pet how much time would that take and he replied an entire hour which was simply too long the wounded girl would escape by then undoubtedly so she made her decision.
The avatar of the psykos sunk itself back into the monster before cracking open and exposing her real form to the open air she fixed herself for a moment before angered even more about how that midget managed to destroy her dress oh how she would enjoy making her pay she though, she heard Black Sperm remarked about how he didn't think she was a girl before she quickly silenced him and remarked that she would be sending the rest of them back towards the surface to clean up any of the S-class heroes, some likely survived Tatsumaki's attack and were likely injured from being buried, it was Homeless Emperor that asked what she and orochi would be doing now and she simply remarked that orochi will be collecting their strength and he will be able to join them within the hour and as for her she was going to finish off Tatsumaki like she said she would, she would complete her end of the deal and take care of the espers within the raid and she expected them to carry out their mission, Black Sperm remarked that they were going to however thanks to her she stopped them from doing so, so she couldn't blame them for leaving the job unfinished which pyskos begrudgingly agreed with before ordering orochi to lower them down to the base while she flew off into the distance.
The group of heroes slammed down in the center, a little bit off their mark from the place but close enough that it didn't impact their plan too much. The battlefield was just a bunch of rubble and debris—none of the buildings, streets, or anything resembling a city anymore. Nichirin remarked that it almost looked like the place had been struck by a nuke and everyone silently agreed as they continued forwards, the only good news from the landscape was that they had a very little chance of getting ambushed given the flat plain, the rescue unit immediately separated themselves from the group riding on top of scaledon's back to make quick pace towards Tatsumaki's position the smaller girl took priority over everyone else given the girl's power but not only that Fubuki could feel someone also heading in that direction directly towards her sister a familiar feeling that she hadn't sensed in so long now but that all the more reason that she needed to head off and quickly before it was too late.
The group left in a huff not even sparing the time for goodbyes or good luck which they found understandable given the girl's connections before turning towards their target, the large water source was still clearly visible even from this distance away from them, and the group traveled halfway towards the large structure and the water behemoth grew larger and larger with every step they took, there was no sign of the cadre which was to be expected they had a large area to cover so they decided that they would make their lives easier as they settled on battle positions, once they did so Child Emperor gave the order to both Sweet Mask and Bakugo to start the show and both of them reluctantly did so, both glaring directly at the monster.
This immediately drew the creature's attention as the response was near instantaneous when a massive geyser of water came screaming directly in their direction, of course, this attack was answered in kind by Genos who shot out a blast that countered it creating a large amount of steam that completely to drape over the area and with that, the battle was on as Todoroki, Mina in her Plasma State, Flame Dragoon, Genos, and Drive Knight ll sparked up and started to fly directly towards the large water creature this was followed safely and slowly by frost raven, Lord great white, Bakugo, and Sweet Mask. The aggression from the group below kept the monster's attention, but the blast and geysers of water continued to be deflected by the flying group above to give them cover as they moved.
The Child Emperor watched multiple geysers of water get deflected before he started to head out himself as he monitored the top of the spire. He didn't know if the flying team would be able to block attacks from the monster king if they decided to join in the water object priority, so he would need to keep it busy given the breath of power. It just showed he was under no delusions that he would be able to beat it. He was only going to stall it as much as possible until Tatsumaki or the other S-class heroes were capable of supporting him. He wished the others luck and rose before dropping all his other machines to help support them.
12x mini-braves and 10x watchdog man, he didn't want Neith to exert herself too much given the circumstance of wanting her on standby to have spare parts for his brave giant mech so that when it was damaged he could call in for repairs, but she also pitched in to help the group of heroes during the battle. With 2x super machine 5 and 1x super machine 4, they weren't created by her ability, but his fabricator, after feeding it the relevant data of their design, could make them from it, but it would take some time for it to create more of them to help out in the fighting, but it didn't have to worry about materials given the abundance of resources the land provided.
He wished the others luck once more, and they, in turn, told him to be safe and not overextend himself before he started to fly upwards, given that he wasn't as good as the samurai at concealing his emotions. Instead, he simply blocked out the water creature from his line of sight completely, as the saying went out of sight and out of mind, which meant he could not show any negative emotion for the creature to latch on to or for him to be fired upon unexpectedly. If all goes well, he would only need to worry about the monster king himself, which was more than enough to worry about in the first place.
The rest of the group watched as the large mech ascended higher and higher into the sky before turning their attention back toward the ground. When the sound of one of the monsters was heard, it was the small black creature, of course. It seemed to be calling the other monsters and reporting their position to the others, just as the heroes planned. This was what they wanted, and the first place for their attention to be focused on them was before the one who could yell could speak anymore. Zombieman quickly put a bullet through its face, dropping it dead.
However that seemed to be a rallying cry for the group as several of them had started to surround them, atomic commented on how the monster scattered himself like trash which drew the ire of multiple of the cloned monsters leading them to attack before the rest of its compatriots could join in the conflict the monster was numerous but their strength was lacking they didn't stand much of a chance alone against the hero alliance, but they only seemed to be wasting their time keeping them in place so that the other monster can come and attack them, it took a couple of minutes but eventually, the other cadre started to show themselves.
Gums, Homeless Emperor, and Overgrown Rover along with even more of a storm of Black Sperm clones, the fighting started to heat up even more in earnest upon their arrival the deadly blast of energy that two of their number managed to spew out was dangerous in group conflict and Dakshine maybe recognizing that had taken it upon himself to take the dog away from the group running along and surprisingly luring the creature off into the distance Midoriya was a bit concerned with letting the man go off by himself to fight the creature alone especially since he didn't like the idea of heroes fighting by themselves but out of all of the S-class he had full confidence in Darkshine strength to be able to pull out a victory so he let the man be.
Sister and President: Rescue Team
Tatsumaki was busy hallucinating, or maybe she was just dreaming about her past. She had huddled in a lab with other espers around the time that their resurgence was still a mystery. Lots of people wanted to experiment with them and see how they worked, and families that may have been of less fortunate stature were more than happy to give up their offspring to such an organization for a profit, which happened to be her and her sister. Eventually, she suppressed her power away, hoping that one day she would just get to leave, but as the days ticked by, the test just started to become more and more sparse until one day a tragedy happened—or would she call it a miracle now?
A monster had found its way into the base and started to kill anything, and everything in her was happy about it, but she was also afraid. None of the scientists had come to her door to help her, even as she screamed for help; they opted instead to help the more "promising" children first, so her plan only seemed to backtrack on her, but it also proved without a shadow of a doubt what their scientist nature was. The monster seemed to be the only one listening to her screams, and as she watched the monster size up her door, she couldn't find it in herself to scream. Her life was bad as it was, so she was ready to resign herself to her fate.
The monster broke the door in smacked right into her, surprisingly it didn't hurt that much maybe subconsciously she still defended herself, the monster's guttural yells were quickly silenced as she got up and approached as she heard someone call for her to step out of her cell she saw that the monster was destroyed a large hole punctured through the center of its neck, the man that saved her was completely unscathed clad in a large white suite with the title blast along its front but despite that, she still asked for the strangers name he said that his name was Blast and that he was a hero, the word stuck with her but he asked her why she didn't defend herself thinking that he would be like the others she attempted to lie but he saw through it and could tell that she was really powerful.
He was smart enough to even deduce her failure of a plan on getting out of the place, but none of it mattered; she had nowhere to go and no one to care for given that her parents gave her up. But as the man patted her on the head, he reminded her of someone she still had, which was her little sister, and how she wanted to protect her. After that, he gave her an important piece of advice for someone with too much power: "When the time comes, don't go expecting someone to come save you."
She knew why she was having these visions now, of all times, as her body was picked up and smashed against large rocks over and over again. But what should she have done? Slam Was this how she died? Slam Blast, what should I have done differently? Slam, my powers are unstable; what can I do now? It's not like before, Slam. I shouldn't expect someone to save me, but... I don't want to die. Slam What should I do? Blast. Slam What, Slam can you save me one more time? Slam, and then I'll never need someone to save me again. slam…ple…please? SLAM!
"Dance! Dance! DAANCE! Hahaha, how pathetic you are, Tatsumaki! Those who have never experienced failure are the most fragile when they take a hit! Like you!" Psykos laughed as she slammed Tatsumaki's body down another time, directly on her head. She still had a bit of extra power left, as she expected, but the barrier was weak, and she would still feel that impact. Most importantly, her brain would be rattled when it received damage. The esper power will vanish temporarily, and she used that moment to drag her from out of the ground and begin to step on her, enjoying the instant that her foot made contact with her back before kicking her a few times, then flipping her over to step on her head with her heels and rubbing it in.
"I didn't think you could reduce our numbers this greatly. The good news for us is that we chose today for the assault. You sloppily formed your team without Blast or Metal Knight. You naively thought that you alone could win this war? You started this game without the bishop and the rook. However, I don't think having the bishop and rook would help you out that much. You did have your surprises; sure, that bald man was shocking to learn about, but thanks to you, we can deal with him just as we dealt with you together. Something you should learn is that potentially killing your teammates just because you can should be avoided. It is almost unthinkable everything that can be used should be used.
Tatsumaki, you should know that. You said that people gather around espers to use them, but it is the opposite in this world: the strong control the weak, and we espers are stronger than everyone else, which means we can use anyone else. If you were smart, you would have used your allies to your advantage like I did, but no, you're selfish. You believed that you could do everything yourself, and that dribble about "not expecting people to save you"? Ha! Who would save you?! Your own sister hates you, so I can't imagine anyone else coming to rescue you; that's probably why you live by that philosophy just to justify yourself." Psykos remarked before picking the girl up, throwing her into a large rock, and approaching her once again, gripping her by her bloody hair.
Pyskos was about to say something else when she felt something coming. She turned her head to find a large monster approaching. No, that's not it; she wasn't feeling the monster, but something that was riding on top of it. The monster came to a stop and sat down before someone floated up from the top and came down from over the top of it. This esper signature brought her back.
"You are the B-class rank 1 hero, president of the "society for the study of the supernatural," Blizzard of Hell!" psykos remarked
"It's been a while. The former vice president, "Third eye Psykos," Fubuki replied simply.
"What's the matter, President Fubuki? It's been a while since we've seen each other, but you're not even trying to hide the fact that you want me dead? Even after I so graciously accomplished what you wanted most in this world to put this brat in her place, Psykos remarked as she roughly threw Tatsumaki head-first into the ground, making Fubuki's power flare even more than it already was.
"Step. Away. From. My. Sister." Fubuki remarked in an almost demonic voice.
"Oh, how scary? What are you going to do? You're going to use that "hell storm" of yours on your former colleague? Come on, then, amuse me with those flying pebbles! Hahaha!" Psykos remarked with laughter that Fubuki was one to quickly take advantage of her lack of concentration to deliver a psychic strike directly into the girl's head, breaking her glasses as a result and causing her to scream out in pain.
"You thought you surpassed me? It's a 1-on-1; show me what you got." Fubuki remarked, simply putting a hand out in front of her.
Psykos, enraged by the assault, struck back hard with a large psychic wave but was in shock when the wave simply dissipated away. She tried two more times, but each time only resulted in the same thing happening. Was she missing something, or maybe someone? Her power can't reach her.
"You only gained raw power. What's more important are flexibility and innovation. Didn't I teach you that, Psykos?"
Evil Natural Lake vs. Genos, Drive Knight, Todoroki, Mina, Bakugo, Sweet Mask, Lord Great White, Flamee Dragoon, and Frost Raven
The group of nine heroes had steadily made their rapid approach towards the water creatures Bakugo, Sweet Mask, and Lord Great White, its primary targets, as they approached three large water geysers constantly being shot out towards those three in particular, which Genos would counter with his blast of energy, but that was only the primary targets of the water monsters attacks. The water creature had also managed to attack Todoroki, Flame Dragoon, and Frost Raven as well. The water blast was somewhat smaller when it was aimed in their direction; however, the water blast against them was somewhat smaller than the ones aimed at the others.
They speculated that it was either due to two of them being monsters or that the negative emotions they were admitting were smaller than those of the others, leading to a lessened response than that of the main targets. While the geysers were smaller, they were certainly faster, but given the distance they were at, it allowed them to react well enough to counter, especially given that all of them were able to do so by themselves by either freezing the water that attempted to strike them, as was the case with frost raven, or evaporating it completely, like Todoroki and flame dragoon.
The only ones not being targeted by the water were, predictably, the cyborgs. Drive Knight had flown ahead of the group to ensure that Child Emperor and his theory were correct. He fired multiple beams of energy into the water monster, and it did not directly attack the machine, or more precisely, it did not proactively attack the cyborg back from his assault. Initially, he believed the creature would have been unresponsive to the strikes, but after hitting the creature and burning its main body five times, the creature was at least semi-sentient enough to react to the threat to its main body, even if it likely couldn't see it.
So on Drive Knights' next attack, the water struck right back at him, briefly taking him off guard and sending him spiraling backward into the air. However, there were no follow-up attacks against the cyborg, allowing him to recover and reconsider. He was cautious, flying around the creatures several times, but he received no attack, which sparked a theory that the cyborg wanted to attempt as he shot another energy beam directly at the creature before moving away from the initial point of contact just as a large geyser of water was shot forth at him. But as he continued to poke and prod at the giant beast, he started to form a hypothesis.
He launched another flurry of attacks at the water creature in a vertical column before sliding simply moving along the horizontal plains just as bit and watching how the water creature reacted shooting a direct line of water geysers directly at where the attacks impacted along its massive body but after that, nothing more instead again focusing on the approaching group, so he reported his finding to Genos and remarked that he should not take complete luxury of being a cyborg and assume the creature won't be able to defend itself from there attacks, it seemed to have some mental capacity to think and shift its strategy to deal with such threats and he warned all of the group to be mindful of that fact. The creature may be simple on the surface, but it was still a complex entity with a sense of self-perseverance that could allow it to react differently than they would expect, as the group all confirmed before they continued with their assault.
Other than the monsters surprised adaptation the most shocking adaptation to attempt to deal with the cyborgs that it couldn't see but the second surprise was Mina of all people was not targeted at all by the large water creature not even a single water jet directed towards her as she flew alongside them, at first initially they assumed it was but that was due to her close proximity to the others but as the group separated given a particularly fast and large geysers that managed to pierce pass their screen and score across the land creating a massive divot that buried deep into the earth, after the separation multiple smaller water jets rockets out shot out of the beast shooting at everything it was targeting these were smaller and faster than before and the distance they closed in along with the running towards the monster made the beams even faster and everyone had to defend against the attack themselves the elemental users were still able to defend themselves and even Bakugo was able to deflect the jet off of his bracers.
Lord Great White could somewhat manipulate the water being flown and curtail it around himself; however, the only one who didn't have something to block for him was Sweet Mask. The man had seemingly been unarmed, which the other expressed severity to, but the man simply remarked that the cut was just a "clean cut" so he could simply put the limb back on like nothing happened. The other seemed to believe the star pupil, believing it to be maybe that he had some sort of healing factor similar to Zombieman, of course.
Bakugo, Todoroki, and Mina all held different ideas on the situation but said nothing of it, at least not directly. Mina implied to Todoroki that it seemed that team WTD would be winning the bet. This bet, of course, responded to the ongoing mystery of whether Sweet Mask was a monster or not. The class was split amongst which expert they should go along with Team Torax Watchdog Man, which is what WTD stands for. Todoroki didn't comment on that, however, but mostly asked about how the girl managed to evade the blow herself, and she explained that she wasn't attacked at all.
Earning some surprise from the half-half-teen and the cyborgs as well genos even questioned if the girl was a cyborg herself that she was keeping under wraps from everyone else making Mina laugh at that for a moment before disagreeing that no she wasn't a cyborg but she definitely didn't hold any negative emotion towards the water monster and barely held any in herself, to begin with, she always attempted to get along with every one and this includes even the monster itself, she had thought with that caveat that she would have an easy time but as Drive Knight showed them just now she would still have to be mindful of the counterattack by the water beast, Drive Knight questioned how she would be able to attack the creature while maintaining no ill emotion towards it? Mina answered that she didn't see it as an attack, but she was just trying to help it out and rescue it by making it smaller.
Drive Knight wanted her to test that theory out before attempting it, but it was of no use as they had finally managed to arrive near the base of the creature. Now it was time to lay the action on thick as everyone fired up the heat again, and the genos were the first ones to make the first major move. Lighting drill cannon, The attack created a massive amount of steam as the water monster evaporated from the blow but it wouldn't be that easy as a massive water geyser launched out of the steam and struck genos directly sending him flying backward, as the steam fell away it revealed the monsters it had dramatically reduce in size by at least 10% from that single blow genos had believed the eyes were its weakness or the heart as Child Emperor called it so he aimed for that and assumed that the rest of the body of water would drop down lower but he guessed it wasn't going to be that easy as genos recovered from the blow canceling some of it out with his attack but the force still pushed him back a considerable distance but he caught himself before he slammed into the ground.
He stared up at the creature and pondered for a moment whether would he need to activate his 10-second mode, if he did so there was a chance he could wipe it out with just a single attack however as he stared up higher into the air, and witnessed the ongoing fight between Child Emperor and the monster king he speculated that he would likely need to save that for that opponent instead, before looking down at the water creature again seeing the numerous other fire blast laying into the creature which was responded to by return fire of water jets of variable yields, the water volume was indeed decreasing under the barrage as well as it's own attacks also draining its body size victory was assured as long as they continued to attack non-stop, hopefully, Child Emperor can hold out for that long he thought as he rocketed forwards back into the fray.
Orochi vs Child Emperor
Child Emperor had designed this mech suit specifically for the possibility of encountering orochi but he realized how naive he was for thinking such a thing was possible when he fought one of the cadres, if that was just the power and capability of one of the cadre he couldn't imagine fighting the monster king yet here he was, charging head first directly into that danger, but all he needed to do was stall the beast while the others took care of that water creature both genos and Drive Knight would come up and help him out but could he survive that long? Even Phoenix-man was able to rip off one of his brave giant arms so he could imagine how brittle it could be against the monster king himself, to circumvent this issue he had neith create another brave giant for him in reserve but this was primarily going to be used to help repair him while in combat if that was needed at least.
As he finally rose to the top of the tower, he finally faced to face with the monster king, the creature looked at him and bellowed a sonic screech that sent a vibration that completely shook him even as he sat in his mech, nerves shot up his spine and he could see that his hands were visibly shaking but he took a deep breath and remembered that he wasn't going to be fighting alone he was counting on the others just like how the others were counting on him. He just needed to handle his part of the mission he remarked regaining his nerve as he grabbed a hold of his controller harder and ready himself for combat, the creature was the first one to make the first move stabbing forward with one of the large swords that it held in its hands striking it out with impressive speed as he was barely able to parry it with his saber.
The material of the weapon was interesting but he had no time to analyze it as he had to avoid another blow from the second arm, he used his divider shield to block the strike but the weapon had nearly passed through the shield entirely but it seemed that wasn't what the creature cared for as a static shock started to infiltrate into his suit and normally this shock and influx of power would have messed with his systems and maybe even completely shut him down just like that however he luckily wasn't alone he had help which was the two electric users in the back with his help they had managed to absorb, redistribute, and shave off the energy the monster king funneled into his systems not only power them up but also allowing them to send a backdraft of the power towards the king itself and making it flinch backward as it withdrew its weapons from him.
Child Emperor from that simple exchange knew that he couldn't take a direct hit so he started to pour power into his engines and just in time as well as the dragons beneath the large creature started to charge up their energy blast and fire it at him, he was able to avoid all of them or deflect them with his shield but something was wrong it wasn't using that other attack that came from it's center like it did against Tatsumaki?
Could it have been a cooldown of some sort but that didn't make sense judging from what he could see of the beams exiting the clouds multiple of them had been shot in short order of the other.. It could be that it had to rebuild the energy from using multiple of those attacks but coming to think of it now, wasn't the creature supposed to be an esper similar to Tatsumaki? Perhaps that power came at the cost of its mental faculties and it couldn't use it anymore without damaging its mind even further it also likely deduced that he wouldn't need it against him which it likely wasn't wrong about but that overconfidence could come back to bite it in the butt.
Thinking more about it something was off about the creature than before he had brief glimpses of what was happening on the top of the tower when he had first emerged and he brought up images of it in comparison to now and while the main body was the same the difference was that there was no womanly figure that had been projecting out of the top of it which now was gone, they had been told by goddess glasses that the monster felt like orochi but was different, it wasn't normally like this and from the images they had of the monster previously he was able to confirm that suspicion. Perhaps whoever that woman projecting from it had departed from the creature and since then it can't use its full power?
Well ultimately it didn't matter as it wouldn't need that power to beat him, as he let loose with his head turret the monster didn't bother dodging the bullets merely flattened themselves against its outer shelf, he attempted to use his boomerang blade on it but that did the same amount of damage as the blade went it barely sank in a couple of centimeters into its strange hide before just being stuck there, Child Emperor dodged as the creature had thrown the blade back at him but thanked it for giving it back, the monster didn't respond verbally except for a strange screech.
Child Emperor continued to attempt to find a way to inflict at least some damage against the creature while staying on the defensive, the monster despite having what seemed to be massive wings did not fly or chase after him, it remained a mostly stationary target which he had thought would have been a great advantage to him but as he released a barrage of missile at the target and watched as the dragons below its main body acted as an anti-air defense that blown a couple out of the air however a dozen had managed to get through and land home directly on target only for when the smoke cleared to show the attack to have done no damage, this creature was going to be a hassle to deal with but it had to have some sort of weak point.
He started to do a biological scan into the creature and was surprised at what he found, the monster was massive much bigger which seemed like an obvious statement however that was just what they were seeing on the surface the creature was ever larger underground almost like a tree where it roots stretched out for miles in the ground, was that the real source of its power? It would also explain all the blood that was scattered over the place it must have been her destroying the creature in its entirety.
Well at least the girl was doing something other than causing mass damage on a massive scale he internally remarked to himself, but as he continued to scan the environment he could see new flesh routes started to take place and absorb the old, it was trying to reclaim or maybe even gain more power, so that was the reason it was not moving it couldn't since it was still attached to the dead roots and needed to create new ones to replace and overtake them. He couldn't let that happen so he needed to think fast he was about to hook up to the feeds of the mini-braves to see how the battle on the ground was going only to realize that 5 of them had been taken down already which was surprising given the circumstances but before he could get a full grasp of the situation a direct call had come in from Neith fearing that the perimeter had been breached but it instead the girl had an interesting proposition for him but it had come at the request of another, someone that had gotten completely lost in all the scuffle of the situation but from king himself.
Rear Guard
The group that had been left behind was all restless, as the first group had gone away. Almost all of them felt like they were being left behind. The disciples even felt like it was greatly disrespectful of them to be sitting behind while the council fought. They had shifted their base of operations to a higher, elevated area so that they could properly visualize each battlefield using Toru's light enhancement: Telescope Everyone who wanted to see what was happening could get a solid view of what was happening during the fighting, although this only really served to get everyone that watched even more antsy to continue to not participate in the fighting in general. Kirishima was predictably paying close attention to the fight with the large water monster. The creature was initially a third of the size of the tower, but now it was more like halfway, and he could see that the water creature continued to send more and more water out at the black specks flying around it.
He could specifically tell which one was Mina, as, unlike the other flames that were being shot at the creatures, hers was the only one that was purple. Given the unique properties of her plasma, part of him wanted to travel along with her, given his red riot. He could have covered himself in flames similar to hers or maybe even absorbed water from the monster itself, but maybe that was him just trying to be overly protective. He figured that they were being shot at by the creatures; her attack was the only one that was purple.

He figured he should trust in her ability to not need him to protect her. They were both stronger than they were before during the war and in middle school, so everything should be fine. His eyes circled the landscape for a couple of more moments as he attempted to look for Darkshine however he still couldn't find the large man anywhere when he saw him leave with the dog creature he would have imagined that judging by the blasts the creature released he would have been able to at least tell of the conflict going on but that didn't seem to be the case did they travel that far away or was something else happening, he couldn't imagine that Darkshine would have been defeated that easily and even if he somehow magically was defeated than he would have imagined that the dog monster would have came back towards the main group to help out the other monsters in the fighting but it hasn't appeared to him that the two were still battling somewhere maybe just too far away for them to see it.
The disciples watched the fighting in earnest as the large group fought the small black monsters there was a countless number of them, and no matter how many fell it didn't matter as dozens more would take their place, they wanted to participate in that battle themselves but they wouldn't disgrace their master by disobeying his orders but every strike he took a bit at them more and more as they witnessed the spectacle, they had personally seen the sword master take down the sea folk which numbered in the thousands but this seemed to be even hundreds times that number of enemies, they had watched as another of the machines started to filter its way towards the conflict, the machine was more of a force addition then one would call multiplier they were larger and bigger targets that split the attention of the black creature but several of them have been dismantled already mostly, however, it was the ones created by Child Emperor.
the underdog man, as he called them, until they fused into their three-headed form, allowing them to survive for a longer time than previously. The enemy was still numerous as they fought, but they didn't back down against the challenge. The group would occasionally take glances at the "friendly" monsters that were fighting alongside them; they still didn't trust them too much, but their council of swords seemed to accept them well enough to not think twice about allowing the creatures to watch their backs against attacks of some kind, so they were gradually following along with them.
They believed that now more than ever was the perfect opportunity for the monster to turn against them and get rid of the strong heroes, even if they couldn't take over the world right after given the exhaustion they would be facing that would still mean that they could take it over some time in the future and energizer remarked that they weren't wrong in that statement and the big man was still alive so the battle was still in the air as far as the heroes were concerned about as everyone almost universally turned skywards to get a glimpse of the ongoing battle above unlike Tatsumaki their were no clouds to block the way they could see the fighting and it was nowhere near as severe as it was during the women fight but it was mostly just the mech firing everything it had into the beast above and seemingly doing very little damage to the target, Jiro was specifically paying close attention to that that skywards fight wincing at each individual blast or sword strike the glanced off the large mechs frame, she hoped that the others could get done there battle soon so they could help out at least to give her some peace of mind, she knew Child Emperor was a genius probably smarter than everyone in UA combined but what she seen so far from that creature and the loud shockwave that was produced by its attack she couldn't imagine much of anything they could use to put a dent in it.
As the group was staring at the ongoing battles mineta was partially taken out of the spectate by his phone, he received a message from King, it was a picture of himself up on the building he quickly looked over in that general direction to see the man standing there in the crevices of a nearly collapsed building, Mineta was concerned about why the man was even there in the first place and assumed he wanted something so he told the others that he would be going to take a leak and be right back before heading off towards the man, as he got closer he could begin to hear the man's heartbeat letting him know how scared he was of everything that was happening around him and he couldn't blame him.
He was also pretty scared of the fighting, especially of that monster king orochi that hung above him. Once he finally got down into the shadows with the man, he asked him what he was doing there, and the man had stated that originally he was going to just hold up in Saitama's house, but when all the rumbling started, he thought it would be better to not be stuck in the house just in case it fell over, and he could someone see the man's reasoning, but that still didn't explain why he was in that specific location, even closer to the battlefield, instead of running away to the outskirts of the town.
For that king didn't know himself, he may be believed that it was due to some guilt that he had for his reputation and the lies he was telling everyone, he couldn't possibly live with himself if the others died in the fighting but he lived by being left when they all believed that he was someone strong, he had thought that having saitama included would have alleviated some of this guilt but it remained and he was still here because of it he didn't want to leave until he knew that everyone else was at least safe, Mineta was surprised by the man's reason but he responds that he also believed that while it may probably be guilt but he also thinks that him staying were signs of him growing into be a hero himself but king rebuffed him that he wasn't a hero and that he couldn't help anyone.
The only thing he was good at was being a gamer but that sprung an idea into his head and he asked if he had his controller on him, predictably the man had pulled the controller out of nowhere and responded that he never left the house without it and after a quick chuckle Mineta explained to him his idea and the genuine look of joy on his face was something he has never seen from the man in such a serious scenario his heart rate nearly completely calmed down to the point where he couldn't hear it anymore and mineta went on his way talking to momo for a bit before coming back and telling him that the plan ..was a GO!
Gums, Homeless Emperor, Black Sperm vs. Council of Sword, Puri-Puri Prisoner, Tank Top Master, Pig God, Zombieman, Metal Bat, Midoriya, Tokoyami, and Sigusmand and his monsters Super Machine 4 x 2, Super Machine 5 x 3, Mini Braves x 5, Underdog Man x 2, Mad Dog Underdog Cerberus x 2
Midoriya may have believed that the Child Emperor made a slight miscalculation in his judgment of forces, or maybe Atomic Samurai and Sweet Mask had underestimated actually how many the small black creature had of itself stored up; the creature had called itself Black Sperms, and after doing some theorizing, the Child Emperor assumed that similar to the real thing, the creature could perhaps hold millions itself scales upwards to its normal size, the numbers could very likely reach the billions number, but when simply said aloud, it didn't seem that much until the fighting started and the amount of small black creatures had made its presence known. The divisions of the heroes could have been more thought out, as the group of them didn't even have much in terms of the large area of effect abilities. The creatures, while not very strong, were numerous enough to completely blanket the battlefield, almost to the point where he even had a hard time seeing where the other heroes were located during the scuffle as he was surrounded by a vortex of the creatures.
Midoriya easily broke free using his black whip to whirl around and send the vortex of enemies spiraling into the air, given the nature of the enemy he didn't have many or any calms about killing the monsters as it had numerous more of itself to spare and to boot they already have another of the version of the monster locked up back in the rear guard, although given the current amount of trouble, it's giving all of them, he didn't know if they could risk having the thing in the preserve, he didn't know how long it took for this monster to gather and stack this much of itself but if it could do it within years then things could get dicey and he was sure the other monsters would see it that way as well.
That was for when the battle was over for the moment he used the float to look up and out over the battlefield trying to see if anyone needed assistance during the battle, his eyes first went towards tokoyami it was only natural that he wanted to check up on his friend from there own world to ensure that he was ok Tokoyami given the time of day was using shinning light he flew in the air making him practically immune to the small creatures on the grounds assault but not completely the small black creatures would sometimes throw rocks at him or in some cases attempt to grab him out of the air by forming into large giant hands or version of itself but anytime he would get in trouble or was caught Sigismund was there to save him.
The younger boy was using all of his monsters in the fighting he was currently inside of the dragon lord. This allowed the boy the ability to fly and breathe fire, which he used to fry all of the smaller black creatures that had drifted further from the battle or to more precisely contain them.
A notable number of Black Sperms had attempted to travel back towards the way, where some of the machines were coming from which was towards his friends and everyone knew of how bad of a situation that could have been, but ignoring that he looked towards Puri-Puri Prisoner, Tank Top Master, and Zombieman they were self admittedly some of the weakest members they're and could use support from time to time if the situation called for it however they had maybe not giving themselves enough credit the three of them had been managing fairly well during the fighting at least for the most part the three of them covered for their weakness,
Zombieman while not physically powerful had the best endurance and could fight for longer periods than the other two so when they started to get winded the other two would get winded he would pick up the slack, when his bones were broken by a cheap shot or a concentrated focus by the Black Sperms the others would protect him while he regenerated and fixed them, and tank top master was somewhere in the middle of the two strong and durable while having the endurance to match either, given his fighting style it offered itself up to some range elements allowing them some more unique strategies to rid themselves of the black menace.
He had no fear for the council of swordsmen in particular, despite them being at a disadvantage in the battle given their choice of weapons. They had managed to circumvent that somewhat by striking at the creature using the more blunt end of their weapons, allowing them to bat the creature aside, making them practically useless. However, Atomic did have another way of destroying the creatures, which would take out large swathes of them as they battled. Although he didn't use it too many times, he's counted only twice so far, so it must be draining to use, which the black creature also said out loud, which the man practically confirmed with his reply to it.
Speaking of batting things aside, the next person he checked on was Metal Bat. The slightly older teen was also doing relatively fine; he took some blows but delivered heavier ones in return. He was technically the perfect match against this opponent; the longer the fight went, the stronger and stronger he would become, but that didn't mean he could be completely reckless during his pursuits, as he was off by himself a bit further away from where the main group was fighting. But that was also for a reason, as he pointedly looked away from the small black monster towards the large water creature, and suddenly a large water geyser was sent his way.
He would avoid the attack, which would instead catch the multiple Black Sperms that were close, laughing about how the monster was taking friendly fire from its ally. Pig god was fighting somewhat near and he also had a creative way of fighting against the onslaught of small black monsters by simply swallowing the smaller creature while mildly disturbing especially as he noticed that he could sometimes see the monsters struggling as it was in the heroes stomach before going still and being reduced to nothing, he couldn't argue with its effectiveness the monster likely containing likely billions of numbers inside of itself it still needed to separate from its relatively small frame to get to that number but when the monster was killed before it could split then all of those numbers would all die out so facing against pig god was extremely dangerous for it to take on casually.
He noticed how the Black Sperms' attack of the large man had been constantly splitting amongst each other to similarly overwhelm him without all getting eaten in one fell swoop however the more they split the less damage they could do especially to the large man they would start to sink inside of the man which reminded Midoriya of fat gum fighting style but unlike the hero from their world the sunken in the small black monster was more like they were being saved as a snack for later instead of protection like the pro hero.
The robots were doing the best they could to offer support. Most of them have their own built-in decision-making and computer programs, which made them prioritize helping the heroes over their safety, which could lead to a few of them getting destroyed but still rescinding and helping the heroes that may have been grabbed or being overwhelmed. The only person he couldn't get a visual handle on was Darkshine he couldn't see his battle with the dog or even feel it for that matter, he wanted to go and investigate to see if the man was ok but he was thwarted as his danger sense flared again but he must have been too tunneled vision on his search for the other large hero that he was unable to properly react to the threat as he felt something wrap around his leg.
He quickly looked down to find that it was the black creature once again this one mashed together with others to create a massive hand that it was going to use to attempt to slam him down into the ground however Midoriya reacted quicker using St. Louis Smash Air Force The leg kick and wind pressure completely tore the monster combination that was holding him while simultaneously pancaking some of the black sperm that was around it into the ground. Singular sperm that were close enough were crushed within an instant, but the other larger one was simply smushed into the ground. His danger sense flared once more, and he was able to turn and react to the threat, but he was completely surprised by what that threat was.
That he failed to react in time only being able to cover himself in his black whip as the large creature known as Gums had mysteriously made 20 meters into the air right alongside him, it's giant mouth opening wide and swallowing him whole, the monster must have been thrown by the Black Sperms cells as it definitely didn't seem to give off that level of athleticism when fighting, it had emerged from out of the ground and attempted to eat Tank Top Master but he was able to keep the creatures mouth pried open similar to how he was doing now as he used his black whip to stab into the opening and exit of the mouth to stop himself from proceeding down into the monster stomach proper, he circled the black whip around to block it's wind pipe in hopes of the creature simply going to regeitate him as it could't breath but the monster didn't seem to have to any issue with that, he could break out of the monster with a roof shot but part of him still didn't want to eaxctly kill it just yet but it didn't seem like he had much choice in the matter as he was suddenly free.
Atomic Slash- Iai Rahu-Asura Slash
As Midoriya was freed he was shocked to find that the large monster had been completely diced to pieces by both of the sword masters, but this was countered by both of them telling him off for not paying attention to the battle in front of him and atomic remarked that Darkshine would be fine so he shouldn't have to worry about him but even more than that, he shouldn't have held back the monster doesn't care about his life so he shouldn't care about theirs, given the circumstances they don't have the luxury of holding back against these monsters, Midoriya nodded in understanding but he still felt somewhat bad for the creature but he saw the two stare at him and quickly got his head back in the game and started to fight more seriously than before with Gums down it only left two …well technically two adversaries left.
Witnessing the death of Gums, one of the black sperm cells quickly made his way up a hill. Sitting upon this hill was none other than the Homeless Emperor, doing nothing but sitting there and watching the battle unfold from on high.
"Hey! Gums just kick the bucket. Why are you just sitting sightseeing from a high asshole? Give us some cover fire! Or at least go find out what's making those machines and destroy them!" Black sperm yelled at the man.
"Didn't you want to claim to be able to take out more S-class than anyone else? Isn't this your chance to prove it right now? I'm even graciously giving you a head start." The homeless Emperor replied in amusement.
"Huh!? Tch, more like a useless emperor!" Black Sperm remarked before proceeding back down to the fighting below. The Homeless Emperor only smirked as he looked down on the fighting. He wanted the black sperm to continue to split until he was at his maximum amount; each sperm at that point lacked the ability, and they lacked cohesion. He'll let him brag about his numbers and watch as he wipes this pestilent civilization off the earth, and then he'll finish them off with a super-concentrated carpet bombing. It would be too much effort for him to wander around the earth, clearing it all by himself after all. As he thought about it, it was such a beautiful scenario; everything was just as the heavens would have it to be, he thought with a smirk.
Black Sperms continued to split off and attack the heroes, the small group of individuals began to work together striking the heroes in a vortex pattern to continuously attack and give them no time for rest as soon and give them no options for rest at that was the plan but the small teen had been very disruptive in following along as he crashed through a massive blockade of Black Sperms cells instantly killing them before shooting a hand outwards creating a massive air pressure wave that sent multiple Black Sperms spiraling high into the air, multiple Black Sperms began to grab hold to resist the pressure wave and remain in place, the news of not receiving help from the useless emperor had finally got around and this solidifies into a few of them what they had to shed some of the fat on the heroes side.
"We can't let a brat do as he pleases! Time to combine, damn it!" A few Black Sperms yelled out before the heroes watched with intrigue as the multiple of them started to conjoin together before a miniature explosion took place and six larger versions of the black monster popped out of the smoke that followed.
A multi-cell sperm squad is born!
"I've merged 1 trillion, 229 billion, 142 million, 261 thousand, and 72 of "me" into one; do you know what that means? Those single ones of "me" can't even compare with this high performance of "me," and now we're going to teach you, heroes, a lesson. That's what it means." The lead figure spoke as the heroes looked upon them.
"Don't talk like we're some kind of schlock," one Black Sperm from the horde shouted.
"Let me tell you something even more scary: there are still 96 trillion of "me" left." Another Black Sperm remarked, and this did notably catch the heroes by surprise.
"We'll send you all to hell!" the six black figures remarked before dashing forward to attack the heroes with some cheers on the sidelines from the supporting copies of themselves.
Six heroes came up to step up to the challenge: Midoriya, Atomic Samurai, Metal Bat, Tank Top Master, Pig God, and Puri-Puri Prisoner. Midoriya was the first to engage with the new combination enemy and catch the target punch before countering back with a single uppercut at 100% full cowling. He was surprised when the creature's head simply came off and went flying upwards as the body dropped to the floor and did not rise again. A similar occurrence happened with the other heroes as well. Atomic Samurai had waited for the large creature to close in before he sped past it using his atomic slash, completely dicing the creature into pieces.
He turned, believing that the creature would have split together again, but it didn't and simply fell to pieces. The third one attacked Pig God, believing it took him by surprise, but he was just as surprised, as punching the fat man only merely caused him to burp in some discomfort before he was snatched up by his arms and legs and swallowed down whole into the man's stomach. The fourth cell merge had managed to punch Metal Bat in the face, but the teens had merely smirked at the blow and came back at it with a savage tornado. Multiple bat swings struck along the creature's body, tearing bloody chunks from its body before finishing off the creature with a swing to the creature's head that knocked it completely off and sent it flying away, even commenting on how he sent it farther than Midoirya's uppercut. Despite the talk, the heroes had handled the clones fairly easily, or at least they would have, but both Puri-Puri Prisoner and Tank Top Master were a bit knocked back by the creatures, making both of them fall back.
Tank Top Master and the enhanced sperm exchanged a few blows before merger came out on top and power slammed the man into the ground, but before it could do anything else, it was completely destroyed by Zombie's demon hunter rounds from his desert eagle blasting a hole through its face and watching its body drop. Puri-Puri Prisoner was trading evenly against the monster, going blow for blow even when he used his dark vibration angle rush. Neither individual budged as their fists banged against each other's bodies in an extended conflict. Puri-Puri Prisioner's bristle armor provided the best protection it could, but he had to grit his teeth to continue the assault against the monster; however, the creature was suddenly cut in half, causing the assault to stop on the man and revealed that his savior was none other than Saren. The monster swordsman's sword was clouded in flames before it flicked the flames off the sword and into the direction of a large group of black sperm that had caught fire almost instantly. Puri-Puri Prisoner thanked him for the help, and Saren only nodded in response before checking back around with the others.
Black Sperm couldn't believe what he had just seen: 6 trillion sperm cells gone almost instantly, and they didn't even manage to damage a single S-class hero that badly. Fighting started to break out amongst some of the flock, with some lamenting the loss, however, or getting angry and throwing out the accusation of making a half-assed merger and that others should have joined in with those six. This only allowed the heroes to catch those who were injured by the merger to catch their breath while the others continued on their assault against the now disoriented and disorganized group of Black Sperm cells, which only seemed to get angrier and start to split apart more and more. The heroes' communications unit sparked as the fighting once again started to spark in earnest.
"Hey guys, you all probably saw it, right? But just in case you didn't, the "merged" ones aren't splitting anymore; they seemed to be dead flat out. That means there is a way we can make this a lot easier on ourselves because I don't know about you all, but killing over 100x of the earth's population sounds pretty exhausting even for me," the voice of Zombieman came over the communications unit.
"I agree, so what are you thinking?" Midoriya asked
"A single one of them doesn't pose much threat, and from what we just witnessed, the merged one doesn't mean much to our stronger members, so if we can bait them into fusing and kill that fusion, it would make this fight go by faster," Zombieman suggested.
"That's a risky gamble, don't you think? Who knows how much stronger a bigger merger could be?" Midoriya remarked.
"That's true, but Zombieman is right. If what it said about its remaining total is correct, then it's the best path forward; it will eventually bring all of us down. In the meantime, our forces are finishing up their battles and will be here to support you soon," Silver Chain replied.
"How's that flash rescue coming along?" Zombieman asked.
"It's proceeding fairly slowly; he is buried a suspicious distance down in the ground, and given that I don't know his position, I need to be mindful unless I crush him if I move a stone the wrong way." Silver Chain remarked.
"Why do you refer to it as suspicious?" Zombieman questioned
"Because he is located, at least his beacon is located far from his supposed route and much further down than necessary given the information we have been provided indicating that he took a detour for some reason." Silver Chain replied.
"Well, he was with Saitama, wasn't he? The guy isn't known to be a follow-the-plan kind of guy; they could have found something worth investigating." Zomebieman remarked simply.
"Maybe." Silver Chain replied simply.
"How's the Tatsumaki and Bang rescue mission coming along?" atomic asked, his voice cutting into the feed.
"It's going somewhat smoothly; the monster association leader is putting up some resistance, but Fubuki is handling the situation well; she should be operational sometime soon.'' There was a pause before Silver Chain responded and breathed a sigh of relief for a moment before agreeing with Zomebieman and his plan of action.
Psykos VS Fubuki
A psychic must never solely rely on his power. Psykos is vulnerable. Fubuki is assured of victory.
"This is my warning; if you do not pull back your psychic wave within 10 seconds, I'm going to retaliate," Fubuki remarked, staring psykos down. She was partially surprised when her bait worked out very well.
"Why don't you try it if you think you're so much better than I am!?" The girl yelled, flaring her power even more as she again attempted to reach her former president and friend. This was exactly what Fubuki was counting on however getting the women to flex off her power as much as possible her mind similar to her sister her mind wouldn't be able to keep up that power output for long, her power went far beyond her own capabilities and Fubuki guessed that even an S-class hero would have difficulty handling her attacks baring her sister of course as she turned to the side to look at her older sibling, she was still practically unconscious and bleeding profusely from the head but goddess glasses had gotten her away from the battle area and was cradling the girl in her arms on top of the massive monster, the girl had went to attack them believing that there was some sort of trick that allowed her to circumvent her attacks which just proved to Fubuki how far the girl had fallen but it did allow her to attack the women mind once more and after that her attention was fully focused on her allowing the the women to sneak around and grab her sister and pull her to safety she was incredibly thankful for that as well.
To anyone other than her sister, they likely would have had their hands full, but not against her. In order to surpass her sister, she developed the ultimate defensive move, the psychic whirlwind. While doing research into Fubuki, I found a certain characteristic of esper power. That is linear movement, the flow of telekinesis. When moving an object has a similar route as sending a mind signal through a telegraph, that flow always finds the shortest route without being limited by physical obstacles. The result of Fubuki's distance training was that she gained complete and free control over her mind-wave travel route.
Psychic power is normally used to shorten the distance between, so her new ability seemed obsolete. Because in the end, whether the signals travel linearly or along a curve, the results are the same. However, in a battle between psychics, this ability has proven to be of great importance. Despite psykos sending out waves powerful enough to blow out Fubuki's brains, Fubuki's circular moving waves are diverting and nullifying them. If they went head-to-head, Fubuki's weaker waves would have been completely deflected, and the fight would have been over in an instant.
This was how Fubuki fought; she had been smothered by her sister's monstrous power since she was born, but after undergoing all that harsh training, she acquired this unique ability that she named psychic whirlwind. She believed that this technique would give her a chance at surpassing her sister.
Her sister Tatsumaki has acquired this skill since childhood without even realizing it. Not only that, she has upgraded that skill to a powerful attack. Fubuki hasn't realized that... Fubuki also hasn't realized the outside influences that are affecting psykos that are allowing her to be unable to realize how she was winning the drug-enhancing effects of her serum combined with the maddening effect of encountering THAT being that had compounded and fractured the young woman's mind. In her normal state, psykos would have easily been able to deduce her trick and counter the wind by spinning her waves in the opposite direction of hers, causing the head-on collision and completely disabling the defense, leaving her open to attack.
"At the age of 17, when my power was about to surpass yours, you jealous prick sealed them away! With a kiss, no less! You played with my emotions and my power! Now you're going to stop me from becoming the world's number one again!?" Psykos screeched, letting off another psychic wave that harmlessly dissipated around the women.
"That's how it is. Because I'm an egoist, at the time when you brought up using the society of the supernatural to wipe out humanity, there was an uproar. People called you crazy and inhuman, but I didn't care about that. The only thing I was thinking about was: What would be the point of being on top of the world if there was no one else? Highs only exist with lows; there are only winners if there are losers. Psykos was trying to take the losers away from me. She is such an egoist. Psykos is my enemy; enemies must be destroyed." Fubuki remarked simply
"President Fubuki, this time is the one that will be destroyed! I mean it literally and physically. This is going to be different from our school days; I don't have a single bit of hesitation. Just die." Psykos remarked as her powers flared once more, along with Fubuki.
This time the fighting continued in the air on top of two massive rock structures, but the battle remained the same. Psykos sent wave after wave of psychic energy toward her former president, but all of it just warped around her, tearing up the landscape but not the target, which only made the girl angrier, shooting out more and more waves. But this was no cakewalk for Fubuki; she wasn't sure she was getting physically harmed, but producing and constantly projecting her waves in a spiral was starting to take a toll on her. She could feel it, as her nose was about to bleed. At this point, it was a battle of endurance, which her mind would give out first, and she could only hope that she would win.
Fubuki could only sit there and watch as her former vice president continued to shout bloody murder at her while she thought of how she used to act in the past before she was such a happy chipper girl, praising her for her abilities, informing her of interesting groups, and persuading them to join under her. Everything Psykos did was to gain her affection and appreciation, rarely ever disobeying or even raising her voice at her. She was so submissive—until she looked into a new power called the "third eye" that would allow her to peer into the future. After that, something changed in her, and they broke away after that.
What do you see happening in the future?
Fubuki's gambit had seemed to finally work out, as she could tell that the girl had started to completely weaken and fall. Blood rushed from her head in a dangerous spray, and Fubuki used that opportunity to finally let loose with her attack, which landed, knocking the girl unconscious.
"You were never such a strong child. The source of madness is it because you peeked into the future?" Fubuki asked mostly herself.
"You know, I guess this is none of my business and all, but you're a pretty messed-up individual yourself, if what you were saying was true." The voice came with goddess glasses, and Fubuki didn't bother to respond. She didn't need anyone to tell her that; she's done some pretty horrible things in the name of herself.
"my… My sister... Bring her to me and the big monster. I need you as well. Please, I don't know how bad her wounds are. She needs my help now." Fubuki remarked, simply holding a hand against her head for a moment and nearly collapsing. Goddess Glasses approached first and held out a hand for the girl to take.
"Well, first, you need to concern yourself with your wounds. Here, I'll allow you to take some of my energy. I'm not one to judge about character; I did join a cult that was going to kill all of humanity after all. Before that, I was using hypnosis to control others." Desire Glasses remarked with a smirk, and Fubuki looked up at her and smiled as well before struggling to stand up, never wanting to show herself as being underneath the woman, which gained a chuckle from the woman before she grabbed her hand and started to heal herself.
"We may have more in common than I initially realized; I would hope in the future that my blizzard group and your love knight could cooperate again and count on each other." Fubuki said as she started to get better and better from taking the monster's energy.
"I like the sound of that. Girls gotta stick together, right?" goddess glasses offered before ending in a slight exhale as she felt herself drained. Fubuki looked better and better before she let go and went next to address her sister.
The large monster Scaledon had just put her down and was about to back up but Fubuki halted it and stated that she still needed its presence along with everyone else to heal her sister, scaledon wanted to argue that he was the one charged with digging up the others to if he took power from him, he won't be able to do that, of course, Fubuki remarked that she would take care of it while the rest of you sit and recover but they needed Tatsumaki as healed as she possibly could be so that she can return to the battlefield which all of them begrudgingly agreed with so they all put their hands together with Fubuki's lying down on top of it before placing her other hand directly on top of her sisters prone and unconscious body and started to heal her as best as she could, once she saw that her sisters eyes flock open and her eyes seemed to focus indicating that she able to hear so she started to speak to her.
"You are such an idiot... You must know that even you have your limits. When I saw you get shot down, I was so scared. I thought that you may have even died. You don't have to do everything yourself. The reason you stopped trusting others was to protect me, right? To protect me from the adults who wanted to use my power... Back then, having a sister who wanted to isolate me was nothing but frightening. So I created my own faction and used power to move past that. But then I started to think about what true strength was. And since then, I think I have started to understand you more, little by little. I'll gather strong allies that even you can trust. and then someday I'll come for you….I won't leave you all by yourself. I'll save you, sister, in a way you can't do yourself because I am a hero." Fubuki spoke with a sorrowful tone before she switched to a somewhat cheerful note and a smile.
It had been so long since she'd seen her sister smile that she wanted to keep that memory locked in her forever, but as her eyes and head started to clear, she noticed something: her sister's head was covered with dried blood, and her thoughts, along with her power, remembered what was happening. She quickly powered upwards and searched around, first finding a couple of monsters behind her sister, which she hoisted upwards.
"Where is she!? Where is the bitch that hurt my sister? I'll twist that glasses-wearing bitch head off!" Tatsumaki said this as a threat to the monsters she hoisted into the air.
"Wait! Sister, I defeated Psykos already! And those monsters are friendly; put them down!" Fubuki yelled, and for a moment Tatsumaki looked down at her sister, some ways away. She found the lying body of the girl in question a distance away before she calmed down and took another look downward. She saw someone else down below; it was one of the floaty girl's friends, which would explain the monsters that were beside her sister. She rolled her eyes and dropped them on the ground before floating down towards her sister again.
"You beat her? And you guys went against my direct orders to not allow my sisters to get hurt?" Tatsumaki asked a bit in surprise, anger, and astonishment but something else was there she was slightly a bit impressed by that fact even more so by her sister's use of psychic energy, while not at 100% she felt a hell of a lot better than before which she assumed she had Fubuki to thank for that, she never would have thought of using her powers like that and she possibly never would have so she couldn't quite hide the smile that appeared on her face before turning into a scowl to scare the non-killing army member as she dragged him forwards for answers to explain how they allowed her to get to this point but it was someone else that spoke in his stead as his murmurs could barely be deciphered by the esper.
"It's your fault really; if you had asked for help instead of trying to take on all of the cadres yourself, the other S-class could have helped you—well, the ones that you didn't bury in the ground with your little stunt," goddess Glass remarked. Tatsumaki gave the girl a once-over before looking over to her sister.
"Who is this?" Tatsumaki asked.
"She is a friend; she, along with the other monsters, protected you while I dealt with Psykos." Fubuki remarked, and she then gave all of them another once-over.
"Don't thank us too quickly now." Goddess Glasses remarked after several seconds, and Fubuki psychically smacked the girl on the back of the head and remarked how she was not helping their case, and she shrugged back.
"Well, hopefully, this friend doesn't turn out like that one over there. Since you beat her, I'll give you the luxury of finishing her off or just letting her bleed out to death. Honestly, that's what she deserves, but after that, you need to go home. Fubuki, I'm serious….I'll admit that you've grown strong, but for that reason, I can't show myself being pathetic anymore; I have to be a good example for you." Tatsumaki stated this simply before she started to fly away, as she was flying away. However, Tatsumaki had started to get a massage from the boy. It seemed he was a telepath.
Miss Tatsumaki and other monsters are fighting alongside the other heroes as well. Umm, only four enemies are remaining: a small black creature that can multiply itself called Black Sperm, the Homeless Emperor, the evil natural water, and the monster King Orochi on the tower. The Child Emperor likely needs help taking it on; at least that was the plan that we devised, so please, can you help him if possible?
The voice in her mind spoke. She didn't know if he could read minds or simply send messages, but she at least appreciated the update on the situation. She would begrudgingly accept that monsters were helping them, so she didn't turn the monsterized bird that passed her to paste as it went past her. She didn't need anyone to say that she would need to focus on the final boss after, especially since she wanted to get revenge against it in the first place, she thought as she flew forward.
The rescue group watched as the small women left up into the air and flew past them before, all of the other monsters were completely gassed and just took a moment as there was a lull in the action to just completely relax and lay down even goddess glasses took the moment to sit down on top of scaledon which landed back first on the fall from Tatsumaki lifting him, he too also remarked by the lack of thanks from the girl which goddess glasses agreed with but Fubuki which was the only one that seemed to be still fine replied that them being alive was probably her thanks enough, before getting back to the task at hand which was digging up the others, one rescue mission down and another one to go she assumed.
Furakuro had dropped down from the sky above on top of his master forest generals shoulder, he pecked at him and asked if he was ok and he responded that he was before he gave them a debrief of the situation happening, the water monster group had just gotten the creature down to half the size and were making steady progress however the main group was still struggling with the small black creatures numbers at that Koda asked Aki when she was able enough to go and support that group she wasn't really needed anymore in this area so she should help out when she was able to and she reluctantly agreed not wanting to leave koda behind in a potentially dangerous place but given Torax and Asterius was their she was more willing to leave him be, however the falcon had even more to talk about stating that he wanted Koda for something else and dealing with Darkshine at first they assumed he was in trouble but the bird remarked that he wasn't and that the situation was stranger than that, Koda understood and would go with him but he also asked for the falcon to go pick up Kirishima just in case, he knew Dakshine best between all of them so if something strange was happening with the man he would be the best one to know what's going on with him.
Evil Natural water VS Genos, Drive Knight, Todoroki, Mina, Bakugo, Sweet Mask, Lord Great white, Flamee dragoon, Frost raven
The group had been slow and steadily wearing the water creature down constantly hammering away at it with flame attack after flame attack while doing their best to avoid any return fire by the creature, the monster had been getting smaller and smaller upon each clash their plan had been working flawlessly for the most part, the monster creature was mostly brainless the key part of that sentence was mostly once the creature realized that it was in danger and its body was now a fifth the size of the tower but now the creature was faster but the most dangerous part was that it was now on move the creature realized how large of a deficit it was in and despite its attacks, it's body mass continued to drop and drop after each attack, the only option the creature had was to absorb all of the closest water sources and that was the water off on the coast.
The heroes were completely surprised when the monster had almost started to sprint at a quick pace, but their shock completely turned to abject horror when they realized the monster's destination was the ocean. More now than ever, it meant that they needed to stop the monster in its tracks before it could get there; if it reached the ocean, it would be almost impossible to beat, so they all charged forward. The monster seemed to have been ignoring at least its base functions for the moment of targeting those with extremely hostile emotions.
Drive Knight speculated that pure survival instinct was likely outweighing it for the moment or maybe it hypothesized that sensing in that way was fruitless given that they had members to circumvent it, in any case, the massive near-kilometer-large water moved with at a brisk paste and instead of targeted water shots towards direct individual it would continuously shoot out water geysers from around it' body while this would seem detrimental initially decreasing it's water mass but they, in turn, it made it continually faster as well and ensured that the heroes couldn't get too close and force them to proceed towards it with caution as they didn't know when or if they were going to be targeted or not by the water shots.
The group wasn't confident in killing the creature before they could reach the ocean so they needed to ensure that they did something to stop it or slow it down, the creature had been absorbing moisture from the ground and the very air so to keep up its large form at least to some extent so the only way they could stop it from doing such a thing was eliMinating that aspect all together while hitting the creature full on with everything they had, to somewhat slow the creature down lord great white dived into the middle of the beast and absorbed some of the water growing to its full 20 meters tall size a 40th of the creature's size at this point, but the most important fact was that he could slow the creatures place to a noticeable degree Drive Knight speculated that the monster had bought them an additional 10 minutes. The next part of their plan was to eliminate the availability of water in the area. Bakugo dashed forward, grabbing Todoroki, Mina, and Frost Raven, before using his X-Catapult to throw all three of them forward in front of the massive group.
Mina turned into her super liquid state, and Todoroki swapped into his phosphorus white state while using his vacuum ability. Frost Raven let his power come out of his entire body before the entire area around them started to slicken with ice, and the water molecules in the air started to freeze over and fall from the sky. Mina had created three perpetual tornadoes: The super-liquid theses were massive in size, reaching 50 feet tall. The creature, which had started to shrink even more, had to move around the icy ground while offering some respite against the heat attacks. It still could not simply push through the superfluid tornadoes without simply being frozen solid. Lord Great White had managed to push some of the large creatures into the tornadoes, freezing parts of its body, which it had to leave behind.
The monster noticeably started to shrink at this point as there was no more water that it could use to absorb from the surrounding landscape they just needed one more final push to shrink the monster for good, and this came in the form of both genos and drive in his gold state charging head first into the water creature before charging up an attack, Bakugo knowing what the two were about to do thought quickly and charged forth kicking the lord great white out of the water before they could continue with their attack as they started to heat the water from the inside, Mina had swapped back to her plasma state which switched the tornadoes back to plasma as well, Todoroki used his flash freeze heatwave to direct the flames straight into the water creature paths creating a large geyser of steam.
Todoroki continued with his attack going into his phosphorus red state taking the heat that he collected and using it for his next attack Hell's blade was growing a massive blue fire blade that was double the size of the tornadoes that rocked into the creature, slamming it down head first, creating an even bigger pile of steam to emerge. Bakugo used his bracers and landmine blast to clear the steam from the area to see where the water creature was. It took a couple of moments, but eventually, all of the steam cleared away and revealed that Drive Knight had captured the creature inside of a large, semi-transparent black casing. The size had dropped to about 10 gallons of water in total, but the two floating eyes told them that they had successfully defeated the monster.
The only problem now was sweet mask wanting them to kill the monster however Drive Knight simply ignored him and Genos remarked that they didn't have much time to argue the point and that they should continue on with the operations as he rocketed off toward the tower again to help out Child Emperor, Drive Knight ignored the star as well and addressed that the teens and remarked that he would take claim of the monster even if the capture was from a collaborative effort he theorized that the monster would be better under his custody given how it operates and the danger it could present to others sentient creatures near its vicinity which the teens agreed with, sweet mask was completely stunned that he was being ignored by the lot of them in not getting a say on what to do with the monster so much that Drive Knight even left them, he left Mina with the creature and she would be heading over to deliver it back to the rear guard without much of a say at all when he finally found his voice to bud in again they stunned him once more when they questioned if he was in it shoes would they want them to kill him.
The implication of such a question was clear, but he didn't have time to question them about it since they all started to move in their direction. He wouldn't make the same mistake again and make assumptions about whether they knew his secret. Although he doesn't know for sure if Green Savior leaked it or not, he wasn't going to overreact. The group may have just been showing the dangerous monster a disturbing amount of empathy, which wouldn't be out of the norm for them in the first place, so he opted to let the comment lie, at least for now. As he went to join the other battle, there were plenty of monsters to kill after all, especially that loud-mouthed, small one.
Orochi vs. the Child Emperor and King
Child Emperor still hadn't been getting through against the large creature on his own, he had noticed out of the corner of his was something was coming his way on the radar this was of no surprise of course it was a friendly and a rather familiar one at that which was the remote controlled brave giant that he signed off for king to use, he was surprised by the initial request from the man and he wouldn't have signed off on it, if he didn't hear the request from the man himself he was partially confused by the fact that maybe he had not wanted to make the fight too easy and wanted to try to make it hard on himself by limiting himself to his technology his ego wanted to tell himself that the man may have instead seen something in his technology and wanted to test it out for himself but that was him just wanting to pat himself on the back.
The drone came in hard and fast and surprised him with its initial tactic. He had filled in King on his finding regarding the monster king's biological structure, but he hadn't expected King to attack it, so directly, he did not enter the battle in its full robot mode instead opting to keep all five parts of the machine within its drill function, which he used to bury into the tower itself. It was only a few seconds later that the creature let out another large howl, which the Child Emperor took to symbolize the creature's reaction in pain and to hammer at that point the dragons that had been buried underneath the creature and had been shooting lasers at him.
It seemed to be retracting inside the large tower, likely the source of the drilling. Child Emperor thought quickly and dash and slashed at the dragon tendrils before they could go inside to cover for king's operation there were six of them in total but even these smaller creatures held incredibly durable skin as it took his blade a long while for him to bite and ripp through them, he would soften the targets up with a barrage of missile fire which lightened and quickened his pace but along with the large metal drone came a couple of other object these were in essence the Drive Knight pointers that he had created for lighting raijin, these were much larger however and the point of creating them from his fabrication was simple when the boy explained about his bolt ability he speculated that it could be used with brave giant if the charge was big enough and he was correct, so he sent the pointers attaching it towards the dragon heads that were receding backwards before remarking informing his to regulators to move and then in that very instant his mech moved extremely fast blurring away from the downwards stab that the monster king was attempting to hit him with, Child Emperor used the increased speed and combined it with the swing of his sword to slamn it downwards over the neck of the dragon head taking it down with one swing.
He was extremely satisfied with the action but couldn't get hung up on it for too long as he had to quickly move on to his next targets. He dashed forward three more times, cutting off three more heads in the process. Unfortunately, he couldn't get to the last head in time, as it had already retreated from him, allowing it to get inside. He was forced away as what felt like an invisible force pushed him backward. It wasn't just an invisible force; it felt more like an ESP attack.
Did it adapt to be able to use it by itself without a person to help? He thought before he felt his machine grabbed by an invisible pressure that started to condense down on top of him. His controls were being overwritten; they were stuck there. The monster was getting ready to gore him through the center with his arm until it flinched again, allowing him to dodge out of the way. Several vibrations rocked the towering landscape, and out from the tower, this was quickly followed up by beams of energy and the forced removal of the three of the two drills.
The three drills that exited combined and revealed to be the upper portion of the mech only missing the waist and legs but even with that it allowed the machine to continue to fight as well, it fired multiple rounds off from its forehead-mounted cannon but again king surprised him with the preciseness of its shots, these almost seemed to hone in precisely in the gaps of the creature's armor, underneath the armpit of the extended hand, a sprinkle of blood had emerged from the creature but it still wasn't that impactful but it did change it's targeted towards the other machine allowing the Child Emperor to dash in with bolt.
He was hoping to slash a part of the creature's wing off however that didn't seem to be the case as the monster twisted around with incredible speed to stop the striking cold and then a hidden seventh dragon emerged from behind it to blast him directly in the face, he was completely blown backward at the unexpected attack but his mech was able to withstand the blow but it took a moment for him to stabilize himself, however, that time was what he needed as multiple more dragons grew and combined and were about to hit him with another equally large blast of energy however this attack was missed as a sudden kick to the back punted his machine out of the way.
King once again had rescued him showing such a surprising degree of control of his machine as he had sacrificed one of his legs for him but he likely calculated that risk as expandable because that could be replaced by the mini-braves which was exactly what the man did as the last drill exited out of the 6 of the 12 mini-braves had combined in the leg mode and made up for the missing piece, the black clashed along the metal gray of the rest of the machine but that didn't matter as the drone had quickly stabilized, King told him to sync up with him as both machines had started to fly around the large behemoth of a monster as the merged dragon head continued to fire its massive laser beam at them.
The monster still seemed to be adapting to its esper power as it couldn't hold the two of them at once when it managed to grab one the other would cover for it and deliver a sharp counter-attack, the remaining six mini-braves that had come with king's drone were hard at work underground attempting to burn at the creature's roots to stop it from draining even more power from the earth they wouldn't last long and speaking of which the machine wouldn't last long either as even with the modifications made to make it remotely controllable the time limit was still their it made it even worse before he had around 6 mins but that was shortened down to four minutes.
The two of them flew around the monster in a counterclockwise formation each of them trying to look for weak point points in the monster's armor before its attention was drawn to the other one but the machine simply lacked the firepower to do any significant damage, the large dragon head that was next to the being was the first major blow they had managed to gain against the creature using a combination of long-range missile barrages and bolt-enhanced saber strikes the monster lashed out with lighting once more but this time using the large pointers Child Emperor was able to redirect the force this time completely into the creature from before allowing them to stun it and hack away at its flanks Child Emperor dashed in slash and design out, scoring a couple of gashes along it's arms, but nothing that didn't heal over in about no time flat. King had used the Mechs Nova blast, which was a weaker and more sustainable version of the Millennium Nova. However, the attack again did very little in terms of damage as the dust cleared and the creature let out a roar once more.
The creature's esper power seemed to increase once more, ripping a large chunk of rock at them. The two of them reacted almost instantly, slashing at the rock to dig through it once their vision was finally clear again. Child Emperor was again shoved out of the way as King reacted faster than he did, using his mech to push him out of the way of the two black blades that came at them from the creature's extended hands. The strike would have stabbed right through the cockpit and done just that against King's machine before it delivered a deep electric shock that completely fried the machine as it went inert. Truthfully, it didn't matter as King only had about a minute left, but he was considering having one of the two people power him up to switch over to give him more time, but it seemed like it didn't matter as a sudden blast completely took off the creature's arms, causing it to drop the mech down to the ground. The monster shrieked out again as it turned toward the newcomers. The Child Emperor was happy to see both Drive Knight and Genos come in to help him out with the fighting.
Homeless Emperor and Black Sperm vs. Council of the Sword, Zombieman, Metal Bat, Puri-Puri Prisoner, Pig God, Tank Top Master, Midoriya, Tokoyami, Saren, Erlenag Shen, Super Machine 5x3, Super Machine 4x3
The fighting with the black creature continued in earnest the endless monster Black Sperms getting it to combine had been increasingly more difficult than they would have initially anticipated while the smack talk had been getting to the creature thing, especially with all of its more rampant splits and engagement it still refused to merge which suggested to at least Midoriya that the creature may not be able to merge more than a trillion of itself at a time or at least it was the only amount it was willing to sacrifice inside of a singular body it would make sense despite their ease of winning they would undoubtedly wear down eventually, both Tank Top Master and Puri-Puri Prisoner was a clear sign of this, they had been taking many blows over the coming battle as the fighting continued and were simply toughing the fighting out but they couldn't hide it from themselves that they had been slowing down and the monster attack had started to begin too begin to overwhelm them.
Zombieman had started to falter he had been running out of ammunition in his weapons and had to rely solely on his martial prowess which was nothing in comparison to the sword council or saren, he would occasionally scavenge the weapons from the destroyed mini-braves that were on the ground to give him some more firepower but the small black creatures were just too many he had his arms and legs torn off a count of at least six times during the fighting however others were there to cover for him for the most part, the machines didn't have the stains problems that they did, however, they too still fell as the creatures swarmed them with sheer numbers, Child Emperor machines had all been destroyed at this point before leaving only the machines created by momo left, they were more durable and strong but it likely wouldn't be too long before they would be overwhelmed as well.
Even saren's monsters had slowly and steadily started to get overwhelmed by the black creatures making the shadow and disappear taking a few minutes until they could come back and attack once more, Black Sperm had gotten the gimmick of the boys ability and had targeted the boy primary body once they realized they had transferred his real body into eris and with eris she could technically blend in completely with the gathering storm allowing the boy to slip out of harm's way but even sow some discontent within the monsters ranks, arguing with some of them, attempting to persuade some to merge again, or straight up attacking and shoving amongst their group, eventually her games played to much when she had attempted to provoke the man on top of the hill to fire down on him along with the other Black Sperms when she threw a rock at him from behind causing the man to angrily retort by sending a few light orbs in his and the others direction blowing up several Black Sperms cells however also leaving her as the single outliner that actually survived the bombing and outing herself as the imposter allowing a number of the small black creatures to come and dog pile on top of her.
All of sigismund's monsters had come scampering towards the center of that pile and tearing at the large mass to shreds, Midoriya speculated that the eris could have broken out by herself by turning into kaminari and simply zapping all of the creatures but there was the chance that even she was injured from those attacks, he knew that she was playful but not in this dire of a situation, the situation wasn't to bad for the moment at least if this lasted a couple of more hours then it would be but that was in no small part in the fact that the two enemies that they were supposed to be facing was actually just one the one on top was fully confident in just waiting around and zomebieman remarked that he should just let him, he had filled them in on the person's abilities and supposedly his backstory as well, speaking about how he was granted powers by god which the class instantly took to heart and respected the man's danger but just like he said the man body itself wasn't that durable it seemed, so he was a ranged fighter which could explain why he separated himself above the fighting but it was for that reason they didn't want any causing any reason for the person to join in the fight.
But he could see what the girl was going for; she wanted to sow even more discourse between the two of them as the two began to bicker and argue about the man killing many cells himself while also not contributing to the battle at hand in any way, and he was sure no matter how many of himself there were, the black creature didn't like taking on all of the heroes on his lonesome when his supposed ally was just sitting back and watching him fight. Sigismund emerged from the pile in a bright burst of flames and a new body, this was Sigismund's strongest point something he called chimera.
Just like the mythological creature it was a combination of all his beast into one giving him a large increase in strength combined with his amp from before the battle he was now stronger than Midoriya himself at 100%, the creature held a wolf face on it's chest from with glowing white eyes rengar, with dragon like wings on its back from dragon lord, with six snake tails from eris and apophis, a flaming scaly lion head on its shoulders from sol, his body was clad in dark body armor like that of a knight from shadowman using its wings it blew all of the surviving back sperm clones close by away with its clones before yelling out with a howl from it's chest and suddenly emerging out of the gaping maw of the boy wolf face was none in fact then Mina's acid or at least a close approximation of such a thing, the combined state was power and took only parts of the traits that the others hd so while sigisimind could mirror the abilities of other he lost the ability to transform into other people entirely which wasn't to bad for the current predicament as he began melt a number of Black Sperm entirely down to the bone, the fighting continue but the villains teamwork was still nowhere to be seen which was good for the heroes at least and the plan was still continuing on like normal mocking Black Sperm for being weak to motivate the creature into merging.
This was easier when three of their number weren't getting overrun by the monster numbers by this point in time however things changed when another revelation appeared this came in the form of none other than the secondary group meant to beat evil natural water; Todoroki, Bakugo, Sweet mask, Frost raven, Flame dragoon, and Lord great white had all made their appearance known with a blast of ice and fire whipping out huge swaths of Black Sperms cells from the field to the others it signaled that they had succeeded in beating the water creature which again raised spirits for the group of heroes and for Midoriya the great bonus of the two of the best teens greater area effects were gladly welcome however they were likely also tired form their battle against the large water beast at least he assumed Todoroki which showed as his fire was not as potent as he know it could be.
"Look now, there are more of them who are worthless! If you just helped out already, then maybe some of them would have been dead by now!" A black sperm remarked angrily at the homeless Emperor.
"Beg me for assistance, and I may consider it," the man remarked, amused.
"What do you say!? Do you want them to win?" Black Sperm asked, completely baffled.
"Well? I don't hear it." The homeless Emperor remarked amusedly, which only angered the small monster even more. He was about to yell back at the man, even more, heat than before when suddenly a resounding amount of splats was heard as some possible thousands of black sperm cells were crushed in a single instant. The two of them looked skyward just in time to see a green glow slowly pass overhead of them, meaning that Tatsumaki was still alive and well.
"So are you still feeling lucky, huh? That was the green midget; we need to take these chumps out now. Together, at least give me time to make another fusion." Black Sperm commented simply.
"Tch …fine! Withdraw your pitiful clones." The homeless Emperor remarked simply before he started to draw energy and pull it upwards into the air.
The raging number of Black Sperm clones that had assaulted the heroes all began to pull back just as instructed, and some started to form into groups just like before, but instead of six of them this time, there were only four distinct rampant swirls of black merging. Bakugo dissuaded the newcomers from letting them attack the swirls and explained to them what was happening and their plan. However, his danger sense flared once more, and everyone looked up into the air as lights started to shine upon the landscape, eclipsing even the sun's brilliance the group could only stop and stare at numerous light orbs before they all started to rain down upon them.
Extreme carpet bombing
Forcing everyone in the vicinity to seek cover, Midoriya quickly rushed over and used his black whip to shield the weaker trio of Zombieman, Puri-Puri Prisoner, and Tank Top Master. Todoroki and Bakugo created a screen of anti-fire that created a dome of protection underneath them, protecting most of the group that joined along with them. The council of sword masters did a variation of a defensive sword technique that deflected all of the blasts away from them. Atomic Dome, Metal Bat, while not a swordsman, also had a similar technique, but he was simply spinning around a hopelessly savage tornado.
His imprecise technique allowed some of the blast to slip through, but it didn't seem to be bothering him much at all. Tokoyami and Sigismund overlapped their wings together to shield themselves from the barrage, and given the light properties it had inadvertently created, Tokoyami's dark shadow was a little weaker than before.
The rain of lights continued to fall on top of them, not letting up for a single moment next to the human. The black sperm creatures had started to gather and combine; they could do nothing to stop it, even if they wanted to. The light spheres continued to rain down over them, and Black Sperm couldn't believe his eyes. He'd never seen a Homeless Emperor fighting in person before, but those glowing juggling balls didn't seem to be a joke, and it seemed to not require much effort from the man to use them. Was the energy coming from a different source?
Well, it didn't matter; his body seemed to be nothing more than that of a human, so he could just take him down with a sneak attack when the time called for it. As he looked to his right and saw how the merges were coming together splendidly, he would have struck out at that moment, but that green midget was still around, so he could still use him for the moment at least. But looking down, he saw how the heroes were still going strong and waved the man off.
He thankfully stopped after a few more seconds. The Homeless Emperor paused at the heroes, managing to defend themselves against his barrage of attacks. It was so hard to control the fire temperature to kill with a comfortable rhythm, but well, it seemed his contribution had come to a close as black sperm fusions had finally come to fruition. Four massive bodies rose even larger and more muscular than the last one.
"You heroes wanted me to merge so badly, right? So try this on for size four: 10 trillion sperm merge!" The Black Sperms that sat next to the hill announced to the heroes below them that at the foot of the hill sat four large golden bodies with bulging muscles comparable to and maybe even exceeding those of Darkshine himself.
GOLDEN SPERMS ARE BORN WITH A BLAST!
