Chapter 4: All's True in Love and War

Review Replies

Knightmare Lord: I'd rather vote in Shinso.

ThermalsniperN7: Agreed.

Dragon Emperor0: Done.

Yami Luna Kitsune: pretty good chapter

I'm with Danny: CHARLIE, of all people, WAS A GOTH?!

I wanted what Charlie, should be "I wonder what Charlie"

sadly, the manson's will NEVER change. unless reality is LITERALLY shoved down their throats

wow. you KNOW you're doing something right, when the DEVIL HIMSELF likes you

eager for the next chapter.

ThermalsniperN7: … No offense, but this looks like it belongs on another story.

Dragon Emperor0: Just let it go, man. But yeah, did you copy this one?

XenoBlaze: Definitely add Shinso.

Dragon Emperor0: Got it.

ThermalsniperN7: Indeed.

Shirkahn: Nice update. As for my choice on who should replace Mineta, how about a version of Lobo from DC comics (you guys can choose the name). The reason? Just to mess with Aizawa. He's always about logic and rationality, and Lobo outright states in the comics "I don't do logic!", so I think he'd make for some pretty funny shenanigans.

Dragon Emperor0: Nah. we're going to do Shinso.

ThermalsniperN7: Having a Lobo based character would've been fun, admittedly.

Alter: Shinso is best sleepy boi, he deserved to be in 1-A over the fucking grapist.

ThermalsniperN7: Agreed.

Dragon Emperor0: Yeah.


On a train headed to the Todoroki house, Shoto and Izuku stepped on to find a seat.

But before the gates could even close, a hand blocked it before Katsumi squeezed herself in.

"Hey! What're you doing?" She questioned.

"Better question, what're you doing?" Izuku asked.

"Following you so you don't get jumped again, dumbass. You remember what happened the last time you went somewhere that wasn't straight home?" The pomeranian questioned.

"Oi, that was one time, okay?" Izuku retorted.

"Do I even wanna know?" Shoto questioned.

"No!" Izuku and Katsumi replied in unison, both sporting irritated looks.

"So what're you and Icy-Hot doing anyway?" Katsumi questioned.

"Well…" Izuku said before trailing off a bit.


(Later)

"What the crap?!" The pomeranian barked as she now stood in front of the Todoroki house with Shoto and Izuku.

"My family is very traditional." Shoto shrugged. "I asked my sister if I could bring some friends over and she said she'd make dinner for us." He added.

"Why the crap?!" Katsumi barked yet again.

"Katsumi, for the love of god, will you tone it down?" Izuku groaned.

Then the door opened and Fuyumi stepped out.

"Shoto, you're back, and you brought Izuku along with Katsumi." She smiled, happy to see them.

Izuku was quick to hug his cousin while Katsumi seemed to be glaring daggers at the woman, particularly because she noticed that her chest was smaller than the elder Todoroki's, making her feel jealous.

"It's good to see you." Izuku nodded, pulling away before noticing that Katsumi was glaring at him. "Well well well, you look like you just saw something you didn't like, you jealous?" He teased.

"Shut up, ya damn pervert." The blonde retorted.


(Later)

Izuku and Katsumi were now seated at the dinner table of the house, Fuyumi having prepared dinner for everyone in advance.

Izuku in particular was curious to see how good Fuyumi was.

"I'm not sure if you remember me, Katsumi, but I'm Fuyumi. Shoto's older sister and Izuku's cousin." The woman said as she sat down. "I teach at an elementary school downtown." She explained. "And this is Natsuo, you may remember him." She added, gesturing to the middle sibling.

"It's been years, so no surprise I forgot." Katsumi grunted with a shrug. "I don't tend to remember every extra I meet." She added.

"Katsumi…" Izuku groaned, facepalming at his girlfriend's lack of tact.

"Has she always been like this?" Natsuo questioned with a deadpan look.

"Pretty much." Izuku nodded with a sweatdrop. "... Where's uncle Enji?" He questioned.

"Out working. He'll be back later." Fuyumi replied.

"Which is a rarity around here, typically he doesn't want anything to do with us." Natsuo nodded.

"Then what's the point in whining about it?" The pomeranian asked as she started eating her Mapu Tofu after giving thanks for the meal. "You ask me, from what little of your situation I remember? Izuku has way more to complain about than you lot." She added.

"Right… Aunt Inko…" Shoto hissed, wincing in remembrance. The second Inko's name was mentioned, Natsuo and Fuyumi winced as well.

While their mother was in a mental hospital, they at least could say they still had her. Izuku had no such ability.

"What do you know? At least Izuku has a stepmom who cares about him and a dad who doesn't treat him like a tool." Natsuo retorted, eating his own soba.

"Bold of you to assume that I was referring to just that." Katsumi stated. "Did either of you know that he's been singled out and treated like a monster for years now? Even today at school." She bit back. "Hell, even before that, he had assassination attempts against him several times." She added. "So you tell me, who has it worse?" She asked.

This time, Natsuo had nothing to retort with. In fact, he and Shoto had looks of visible shock on their faces while Fuyumi looked horrified that her cousin had been targeted by assassins.

"It's not a competition…" Izuku muttered as he ate his food.

"I'm just trying to get these two to realize that they have it way better than they think." Katsumi stated, right as someone could be heard at the door–which happened to be Enji, now apparently off duty.

"Fuyumi what's–Izuku?" The man said before noticing his nephew. "Long time, what brings you here?" He questioned.

"First meeting in a long time. Figured we'd get each other caught up." The Viridian haired Dragon Sin replied.

The man sat down and decided to enjoy dinner with his nephew and family, before taking notice of an all too familiar blonde pomeranian sitting next to him.

"Katsumi?" He blinked, raising an eyebrow.

"Well if it isn't the second place winner of the hero popularity polls and the first place winner of the "worst father in history" polls." Katsumi said in a sarcastic tone.

"Damn it, Katsumi…" Izuku groaned in complete exasperation.

Sure, she wasn't wrong, but there was a time and place for that.

"Remind me again, why is it that you hang around her?" The man questioned his son and nephew with a deadpan expression.

"Despite her flaws, she's been with me through thick and thin." Izuku sighed in reply.

"And notably he prefers the thick areas." Katsumi added with a catty grin as she ate more tofu, causing Natsuo to nearly choke on his food.

"... Has she always been like this?!" He asked after clearing his throat.

"It actually only started during middle school, oddly enough." Izuku responded.

"Oh don't be coy, you know damn well that you're the real pervert here." His girlfriend retorted.

"Okay, how much are we missing here?" Fuyumi questioned.

"This jackass will not miss a single opportunity to crop a feel on me even in the most dire of situations." The blonde stated. "Like this last class period, during the long distance run, he kept making laps around us just to show off and did so by smacking me on the ass every time he passed me." She added.

"And saying 'on your left' every time he passed me." Shoto muttered, slurping his cold soba.

"Do you two really need to be like that?" Natsuo groaned.

"You'll understand when you get a girl of your own, Natsuo." The Dragon Sin chuckled in reply.

"And it's not only that, he's always looking for an excuse to get some." The blonde added.

"Am not! You're the one who instigates it half the time!" Izuku retorted.

"At least I wasn't the one who used a hole on the wall to spy on me in the girls locker room!" She rebuked.

"That was Kubei, not me!" Izuku defended.

"I find that debatable." Katsumi huffed.

'They certainly have an interesting dynamic…' The Todorokis thought with sweatdrops.

"Whatever." Izuku sighed as he kept eating.

"How are your father and stepmother doing, Izuku? I heard from Fuyumi that he and Kaina had another kid." Enji questioned.

"Yeah. His name is Kagatsuchi." The Dragon Sin nodded in reply.

"That's quite an auspicious name." Enji noted.

"Or they have a really good idea of how he'll turn out." Katsumi shrugged.

The dinner went by rather uneventfully after that, and even though Izuku wasn't able to talk to Shoto explicitly about what had been going on, both boys felt like they didn't have to, he'd already seen it.

Now all that was left was trying to explain to his parents why he was home so late…


(Timeskip)

Izuku made his way to school the next day and as he put his things away, including an umbrella, he saw Katsumi sitting at her desk looking annoyed–and her sock was wet.

"... Rain soaked your sock? Or did a car splash water on it?" He asked.

"Does it matter? It's wet either way." The blonde muttered before she started pulling the sock off, much to Izuku's surprise–causing him to avert his gaze.

Katsumi saw this and held back a chuckle since he would usually take the chance to look at her in such a state.

"Hey, Deku." The girl asked as she crossed her legs, causing her boyfriend to look at her due to the use of his old nickname. "Mind grabbing a spare sock out of my locker?" She asked.

"Huh?" The boy uttered.

"Well I can't get it now that i've taken the wet one off." The blonde said. "So get to work." She told him, waving him off with her foot.

"Uh… Sure…" Izuku replied slowly as he went to get her another sock. "Alright, got it." He told her.

"Now put it on for me." His girlfriend said.

"HUH?!" The Sin of Wrath exclaimed.

"What's wrong?" She questioned.

"You gotta ask? Cuz it's pretty obvious!" He hissed.

"I know you're a legs man, so I figured that it'd be a nice treat for you." She told him. "Am I wrong?" She purred.

"... No." Izuku sighed as he started putting his girlfriend's sock on her foot.

It was then that someone else walked into the room–right as Izuku finished putting the sock on–and accidentally went up Katsumi's skirt.

"What the–?! You pervert!" Katsumi yelped, kicking him back with a raising kick to the chin.

"Gah! What the hell?!" The Dragon Sin snarled, glaring at her.

"... This is Class A, right?" The person at the door questioned, getting their attention.

Looking at the doorway, they saw a tired looking boy their age with purple hair that looked to be in a bedhead style, pale skin and was wearing the school uniform.

"... What's with the mini Aizawa?" Katsumi questioned.

"No clue…" Izuku groaned as he fell back on the ground.


(Later)

"Alright class, we have a new student here with us today to replace the one transferred out yesterday." Aizawa told the class, gesturing to the boy. "This is Hitoshi Shinso, he'll be in Class 1-A from here on out." He added.

"Well well well, I was wondering what was up." Izuku remarked with a grin.

"Least he's not that little goblin from earlier…" Katsumi muttered as Shinso sat down.

"Hey Shinso, I'm Izuku Midoriya, it's nice to meet you." The Dragon Sin said as he turned to face his new classmate.

"Name's Katsumi Bakugo. Remember it." The explosive girl told the new face.

"Don't mind her." Izuku sighed in exasperation.

"Midoriya, isn't your mom the former Rifle Hero?" Shinso questioned.

"Step-mom, but yeah." Izuku corrected with a nod.

"Huh, cool." The boy nodded before he started taking notes.

"Guess he's a man of few words." The Sin of Wrath shrugged.

"Too few if you ask me." Katsumi muttered.


(Later)

Fast forward to lunch that day and Izuku was actually attempting to get Shinso to eat lunch with him, Katsumi, Iida and Ochako.

The boy was resistant at first, but eventually gave in, and sat down with them. This allowed the other kids in class A to learn a few things about their classmate.

One was that he apparently like Udon quite a bit, particularly curry udon with either masala chicken or beef.

Second, was that he apparently loved cats just like Aizawa, as the two had met a few times at a cat cafe once or twice in the ten months during the entrance exam.

And thirdly, this apparently led to him being trained by Aizawa in a similar fashion to how All Might trained Izuku.

Funny how Izuku and Shinso were in the same class now…

"So Shinso, what kind of Quirk do you have?" Ochako asked.

"It's an emitter type, I can cause people to do what I tell them by making them go into a trance." The boy replied, but made no mention of how to do that.

"Sounds like it'd help in a particularly nasty disaster or interrogation." Katsumi noted.

"Crowd control and info gathering. Good point." Izuku nodded.

"You guys sure are reacting differently from the kids in my middle school." Shinso noted, head cocked. "They thought I'd turn out to be a villain." He stated.

This caused nearly all the kids at the table–even Shoto–to cock their heads in confusion.

"Why?" They asked in unison.

"They…. Well, they thought I'd turn them into slaves or something along those lines." The purple haired teen replied awkwardly.

"Are you?" Iida asked.

"Uh… No?" Shinso replied.

"There you go, then." Ochako beamed, causing the boy to blush.

"They clearly failed to see the pros of your quirk." Katsumi deadpanned.

"And from what we've seen? You're as far away from being a villain as I can imagine." Izuku nodded.

This caused Shinso to look at them all in surprise, a blush still on his face as he looked down at his food, before smiling.

"Yeah… I guess you're right." He nodded.

Everyone smiled back as they went back to eating, Izuku in particular being glad that he was able to help someone so similar to himself.


(Timeskip)

"I AAAAAM HEEEEEEEERE!" All Might exclaimed as he came through the class door. "COMING THROUGH THE DOOR LIKE A HERO!" He added as he walked in, getting everyone's attention.

"All Might's teaching?!" Shinso gasped in surprise.

"Yeah he is! This is gonna be awesome!" Kirishima, the resident musclehead, grinned.

"Hey isn't that his silver age costume?" Tsu asked.

"I'm getting goosebumps, it's so retro!" Ojiro nodded.

"Welcome to the most important class at UA High, think of it as heroing 101. Here you'll learn the basics of being a pro, and what it means to fight in the name of good!" The Symbol of Peace said as he stood at the podium. "Let's get into it! Today's class: Will pull no punches!" He added, holding up a battle card.

"Well well well, this is unexpected." Izuku grinned, leaning back in his chair.

"Fight training!" Katsumi exclaimed in excitement.

"Real combat? You're kidding, right?" Shino uttered.

"This is the hero course, so expect this to happen." Tsu, the class frog girl, told him.

"But one of the greatest parts about being a hero iiiiiis–looking good!" All Might exclaimed as he released several suitcases from the wall. "These were made using the specs on your quirk registration forms that you sent in before school started. So put these on and meet me on training ground Beta." He added.

"Oh yeah, I've been waiting a long time for this!" Izuku laughed as he grabbed his case.


(Later)

All Might stood at training ground Beta, waiting for his students to arrive, until one by one, they slowly started coming out, all dressed in their costumes.

Izuku in particular was dressed in a simple outfit. It consisted of a sleeveless shirt that leg his six pack abs exposed, a pair of matching green pants and a pair of black boots. Resting on his shoulder was a one handed sword with a curved blade that had the Dragon tattoo emblem into its hilt and five holes along the middle of the sharp blade, and 5 half-moon holes along the other side of the blade. The blade was split into two different colors, the sharp part is silver and the opposite is a dark green moss.

This was Lostvayne, a sacred treasure meant to draw out the maximum of his power.

All Might looked at his student and soon began to think of what happened before class started.


-Flashback-

"You're giving me what?" The man asked, currently in his skinny form while the kids were in the locker room, Izuku handing him a vial of dark purplish liquid.

"I'm giving you my demon blood." Izuku told his mentor. "It'll destroy weak bodies, but your body is anything but weak." He added. "In your muscle form at least." He amended. "It should heal you." He told him.

All Might seemed apprehensive at first, but remembering that he would lose his power eventually, and didn't have much time left–he decided it was best to bite the bullet and hope that this made him stronger–if only for his dear student's sake.

"Alright, let's see how this goes…" He trailed off as he went into his muscle form, took the vial, opened it and downed it's contents.

The resulting pain hit harder than anything his mentor hit him with in his youth, causing him to keel over.

"Yeah, it hurts like a motherfucker… Sorry." The boy apologized sheepishly.


-Flashback End-

All Might could only shudder at the memory, but noted that his organs were either regrown or healed, so in general it was a net positive.

"They say clothes make the heroes, and you, kids, are the proof!" He exclaimed, retreating from memory lane. "From this day forward you are now heroes in training!" He nodded. "This is getting me all revved up! You look so cool! Now! Shall we get started, ya bunch of newbies?!" He questioned.

"Bring it on, I say!" Katsumi laughed.

She was dressed in a black sleeveless shirt with a collar piece, black combat pants and boots with a belt around her waist that had some grenades on it. On her forearms were a pair of frag grenade shaped gauntlets.

Her hair had also grown long and was now let down and she had orange mascara on.

Izuku took one look at her, and immediately dropped his sword in shock.

"Homina Homina Homina Homina Homina Homina Homina Homina…" The Dragon Sin rambled at the sight, his brain malfunctioning.

It wasn't until Shinso slapped him that he snapped out of it.

"Thanks." He muttered.

"I know she's your girlfriend, but you really have it bad for her." He remarked with a sweatdrop.

"Can you blame me?" Izuku questioned. "Nice costume, by the way." He noted.

Shinso was, predictably, wearing an outfit similar to Aizawa's, even having a capture scarf. The only difference was that he had a breath mask of some sort. He was also in a more armored suit in comparison to their teacher as well.

"Oh hey, Shinso, Izuku!" Ochako said as she ran up to the two. "Those are nice costumes, not too flashy." She smiled.

Izuku gave a bit of a chuckle but Shinso was now blushing at the girl's current appearance.

He was a little flustered by Ochako's skin tight astronaut suit.

"Uh, you too." Shinso nodded.

"Yeah, this costume's skin tight. Not really my style." She nodded nervously.

Katsumi shot a glare at Izuku that told him not to stare at Ochako, clearly feeling jealous at the attention her friend was getting.

Not that she had anything to worry about to begin with.

"Now that you're ready, it's time for combat training." All Might said as everyone gathered around.

"Sir!" Iida called, his hand raised.

"You're kidding me with the hand up, right?" Katsumi and Shinso deadpanned at the same time.

"Yes, young Iida?" The man responded.

"I've noticed that this is the same area we conducted our practical exam in. Is this going to be urban combat?" The armored speedster questioned.

"Not quite! I'm moving you two steps ahead." The Symbol of Peace replied. "Now, most of the villain fights you see on the news take place outside. However, statistically speaking run-ins with the most dastardly evil doers take place in doors." He explained.

"So in other words, stuff like home invasions, backroom dealings and the like." Shinso deduced, having heard a lit about those from his mentor.

"Precisely, truely intelligent villains stay hidden in the shadows. So today you'll be split into groups of good guys and bad guys and do two on two indoor battles!" All Might nodded.

"Isn't this a little advanced?" Tsu asked.

"Not as much as you'd think." Izuku told her.

"The best experience is what you get on the battlefield!" The No. 1 Hero nodded. "But remember you can't just punch a robot this time. You're dealing with actual people now." He added.

"Who will be fighting who?" Iida questioned.

"Will you be deciding who wins?" Momo asked.

"How much can we hurt the other team?" Katsumi questioned.

"Will we have to worry about expulsion?" Ochako squeaked.

"Are we being split up randomly?" Shinso asked.

"Isn't this cape Tre Chique?" Aoyama grinned.

"I'm not done talking!" The mountain of muscle growled, shutting his class up. Then he pulled out a script, much to Izuku's exasperation. "Listen up! The situation is this: The villains have hidden a nuclear payload somewhere in this building and it's up to heroes to stop them by capturing them or retrieving the weapon. Likewise, the villains win if they do the opposite." He explained.

"So a basic action movie setup. Okay." Izuku shrugged nonchalantly.

"I swear if you start spouting cheesy one-liners…" Katsumi muttered.

"You'll what? Slap me?" Izuku jeered. "Joke's on you, I'm into that shit." He retorted.

"Fuck!" The explosive girl hissed, accidentally forgetting that detail.

"Oh boy…" Shinso groaned, facepalming.

"Time's limited, so we'll choose teams by drawing lots!" All Might told them.

"Isn't there a better way?" Iida questioned.

"You know how pros have to team up with each other on the spot in the field?" Izuku asked, getting a nod in reply. "This likely references that. You gotta be quick to adapt if you wanna get the job done." He stated.

"Ah, I see." Iida nodded.

One drawing sequence later and Izuku found himself paired with Shinso while Katsumi was paired with Momo.

"Well well well, looks like we're a team." The Dragon Sin noted, putting an arm on the purple boy's shoulder, causing Shinso to be taken aback by not just the green haired teen's seemingly bawdy nature, but also the dragon tattoo on his arm.

"What's with the tattoo?" He asked quietly.

"... That's a story for another day." Izuku replied, his mood not really dampened.

"You gotta be fucking kidding me…" Katsumi growed as she looked over at Momo, and again felt immediately jealous at the fact that the girl was ever so slightly curvier than her and was a full cup size bigger.

Then she realized that it could've been worse; Momo could've been paired with Izuku.

… Yeah, if that happened, UA would be rubble…


(Later)

"I'll say this much, your quirk's pretty useful, for an extra." Katsumi noted, laying down on a bench in the room she and Momo were in as the girl barricaded the door.

"Thank you, but must you refer to me in such a way?" Momo questioned as she finished up the barricade.

"Cry me a river." The blonde retorted. "Just be glad that you're paired with me and fighting Izuku instead of the other way around." She stated. "Cuz if that was the case, this class would be short one student." She muttered.

"It can't be that serious, can it?" The black haired smart girl questioned skeptically.

"I was more referring to how I'd probably end up stomping you out of jealousy, but yeah. If both me and Izuku were on the same team, you'd probably be flattened." Katsumi said.

"Exactly how long have you and Izuku known each other, anyway?" Momo wondered, adjusting her red leotard a bit.

"Since we were kids." She replied.

"And have you always been this… Attached to him?" The creation girl asked.

"... There was a period where I was a total bitch to him. During our first year of middle school." The blonde responded, adjusting her gauntlets. "I don't like thinking about it." She muttered, her face seemingly becoming embittered.

"I'm sure everyone has been there." Momo told her.

"It's worse when you do it to the man you're in love with…" Katsumi mused as she sat back up, cursing her past self.


(Elsewhere)

"Well well well, looks like we got our work cut out for us." Izuku hummed as he leaned back while Shinso familiarized himself with the floor plan.

"There's an intercom system in the building." He noted. "If you could distract Bakugo and Yaoyorozu long enough, I could use my quirk to brainwash them into standing down long enough for us to get to the weapon or capture them." He explained. "Whichever comes first." He amended.

"How does your quirk work aside from what you shared, anyway?" The Dragon Sin questioned with a raised eyebrow.

"If someone responds to me and I want to brainwash them, they immediately fall victim to my quirk." Shinso explained. "And my mask is a voice modulator." He added.

"Huh. Not bad." Izuku whistled.

"The hero team is cleared to enter the building!" All Might's voice exclaimed over the intercom.

"Well, let's go." Izuku nodded.

"Right behind you." Shinso replied as he followed his partner inside.

As they went inside, they snuck around, intending to be careful of any and all blindspots in case they were snuck up on.

Only for Izuku to immediately shove Shinso out of the way before blocking and using Full Counter on an attack from Katsumi as she came out from around a corner–sending the girl flying.

"Nice try, Katsumi!" The viridian haired boy called. "You know that never works with me around!" He added.

"Oh blow it out your ass!" Katsumi barked as she removed herself from the wall.

"Shinso, go on ahead and get ready. I'll handle things here." The Dragon Sin told his friend.

"You sure about that?" Shinso questioned.

"I'm beyond capable of handling my girlfriend, Shinso. I trust your capabilities." Izuku responded.

"Okay, call if you need me!" The boy nodded as he ran off.

"Now, you were saying, my queen?" The Sin of Wrath purred as he readied his sword while Katsumi sauntered up to him, cracking her knuckles.

"I'm gonna make you beg for mercy!" She growled, grinning like a lioness about to pounce her prey… Or her mate.

Probably both.

She then lunged at him and started kicking him, and then jabbing at him with quick explosive punches–but immediately had those blown back at her with double the impact by Full Counter, prompting her to change up her approach.

She then ducked under a sword slash, and then grabbed at Izuku's shirt, while also attempting a leg on leg grapple mixed with a kick to the side of the head.

"Not bad. That was pretty good." Izuku chuckled.

Katsumi could only grin as she suddenly wrapped her other leg around his neck and pulled him closer to her.

"Oh fuck, I am so turned on right now!" She exclaimed before she kissed him.

Soon, what was originally an evenly matched grappling match between the two, soon devolved into the two making out, and Izuku's demon side soon reacted to the burning lust that flared up inside him as he embraced his girlfriend—by setting the entire building aflame with Hellblaze as they continued to let their carnal instincts take control.

Well, this exercise certainly wouldn't be boring.


Dragon Emperor0: Well, this certainly took an unexpected turn. The others gotta be looking at this and probably going nuts right now.

ThermalsniperN7: Agreed, and that's if they can even see anything, cuz I'm pretty sure Hellblaze is screwing with the visibility.

Dragon Emperor0: We'll have to wait and see in the next chapter. Anyway, as you guys can see, due to a lack of OC submissions but an abundance of votes for Shinso, we ended up having him replace Mineta–and from the looks of things, he's fitting right in.

ThermalsniperN7: Yeah, and he can finally take his place in the hero course from the start. Also, keep an eye on the fact Izuku gave All Might his demon blood; that'll be important later down the road.

Dragon Emperor: And looks like Izuku and Katsumi had dinner with the Todorokis–I feel like we should be concerned with the fact that Izuku still had assassination attempts on his life even after Kaina quit her job–that's rather… Unsettling.

ThermalsniperN7: Agreed… Either the HPSC still wants Izuku dead cuz they're a bunch of wimps, or another party is involved… most likely the former.

Dragon Emperor0: Or worse, AFO wants him dead so he can make Demon Nomus from him, or make him a Nomu and then have him breed more Nomu Hybrids with Katsumi and who knows however many more heroines… *Shudder* Somehow that sounds even worse.

ThermalsniperN7: Given that it's AFO, that unfortunately fits. Seriously, that guy never knows how to stop. Pretty sure only death will end him for good.

Dragon Emperor0: Yep. Anyway, see you guys next time!
