The hero team didn’t have to move far to arrive at their area. The civilian team had to move to the center of the city while the villains moved to some buildings deeper within.
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ8Ubt44B5r
This gave the heroes some time to come up with some strategy in their safety area. It was an open area with yellow tape surrounding it, signifying the safe zone.
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSH9CE3VIzy
Sero: “Please, tell me one of you has a plan.”
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRzR1uwKTWM
Kirishima: “Yeah, we’re not in the best spot.”
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKmm6ouyVXW
The group looks to Izuku and Momo, who then look at each other.
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHSZcQFBmRU
Izuku: “U-Us?”
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrtPWu6SOi4
Momo: “Well, I was coming up with something. Do you have anything?”
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNb3nlXA0kI
Izuku: “Really? That’s great! All I know is that Kacchan will come for me when it starts.”
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdOaqFOCBXG
Momo: “Can you beat him?”
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2wgukwgbgp
Izuku is still not the epitome of confidence, but after training with his sisters and All Might, his former bully didn’t seem so bad.
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRsG7E4JhOI
Izuku: “Y-Yes. I don’t know how long it will take, but… I can win.”
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYnUfoTub6P
Momo: “Good, because you’re our best chance for winning.”
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmEXSJH9vSi
Izuku: “I-I am?”
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ01xmbv2cyi
Kirishima: “Of course!”
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsQeN5eZ2HG
Sero: “You’re our strongest team member.”
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpzjcyzmYid
Uraraka: “With you on our side, we can win this!”
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0QvOEDtGFy
Izuku: “T-T-Thank you all. I-I won’t let you down!”
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA9F1Qzd4IJ
Momo: “Good, so here’s the plan.”
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9uHqKLiYBp
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsA14BAalCa
It took a while, but the villains made it to their base. A non-descriptive building with a fake missile-looking bomb on the top floor.
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqUjREKcuNp
Mina: “Haha, this will be fun!”
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlXKWJfOQds
Ida: “It may just be a training exercise, but it still pains me to be a villain.”
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmmD42kNbU2
Mina: “Come on, just have fun with it.”
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDxlIMf33Ju
Ida: “That will be hard considering the company.”
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeLtKCorivc
He looks to his other teammates. Todoroki was sitting against the bomb; clearly, he was planning on guarding the bomb.
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgqdGYKlNej
Tae was staring into the city with a blank expression. Ida doubts he can convince her to join in any plan he has. As for Bakugo…
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Aqm7ZcIwm
Bakugo: “Deku… ”
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtwg0Poby31
He was a bomb all to himself. Ida could even see him shaking, barely able to contain his wrath.
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVAwfdJtXUM
Ida: “The others will most likely have their own plans. Can I count on you to help me capture the civilians?”
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTHE1GKHGDl
Mina: “Righto boss! You can count on me!”
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkFZ3vm9uFR
It was then, when a loud siren was heard across the city. The exercise has begun.
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB16E4jY0XF
Ida: “Alright, lets-”
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7MSmryNRbN
But that wasn’t the end of it. A flash of green appeared in the sky. Izuku threw his head back before yelling out his challenge.
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTej7cCjT9K
Izuku: “KACCHAN!! FIGHT ME!!”
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqNIWQPlUwO
That did it. Bakugo’s face split into a maddening grin before exploding into action.
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC0lTSikFfZ
Bakugo: “You… FUCKING NERD!!”
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzwv58Lgdrq
Tae followed soon after, jumping out the window and dashing into the city below.
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuqXkiCbEdJ
Ida: “That’s our cue. Let’s… ahem… go capture those civilians for our evil plans! Hahaha!”
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdJBcowbYRB
Mina: “That’s the spirit! Led the way.”
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1rk5Rp6Py2
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡORLlYQnL65
Jiro couldn’t afford to be the first one out. The civilians didn’t stick around each other as soon as the exercise started. Staying together would make it too easy for the villains to catch them all at once.
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg9ZSUsXXmq
So that leads us to now, Jiro stalking the city while making sure to keep her ear close to the ground. She’s not fast, but this will hopefully give her some time to react if a villain does come.
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHcCEEERhzj
What she didn’t expect was being close to the first major fight of the exercise. But maybe, hiding under the building where it will take place might be a good spot. No one would look there.
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKzbIN6c6cY
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrJqdVhP9hx
The plan worked! But it also put a target on Izuku’s back.
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCzap5BYKLX
Izuku: ‘Not like it wasn’t already there.’
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmzIbJNzXq7
He floats down to the ceiling below and waits for his former friend to appear. He didn’t have to wait long.
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCIoOPDvf2T
Appearing with a loud boom, Bakugo shot down onto the ceiling. He raises up from his knee while sparks erupt from his hands.
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIljAPz0Ikp
Bakugo: “Deku… ”
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8vir5pjgxG
Izuku: “Kacchan… ”
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm54HzjCbbd
Bakugo: “You have a lot of nerve Deku… you used to piss your pants before me… now you have the nerve to challenge me! ME!?”
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0oo4W05mah
Izuku: “I’m not the same Deku. In fact, you know what I learned. Deku doesn’t have to mean worthless. From now on, I’m Deku, the one who can do the impossible! Because that’s what I’ll be, a Hero!”
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡExbJvyCFyw
Izuku thinks back to the strategy meeting when he explained a bit about his relationship with Kacchan. Specifically, Momo’s response to his nickname.
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrOJDDKgAIP
Momo: “Deku, huh? Sounds a bit like Dekiru. You can do it; you’re capable. Maybe, Deku doesn’t need to mean worthless anymore, if you don’t want it to.”
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡppVl2lHcrq
Bakugo grinds his teeth and tenses his muscles. Izuku breathes out a calming wave of air and activates his quirk. His eyes flash green, and his hair stands on end.
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKcWh7YcBpZ
The air was electric and ready for the clash of young titans. Words weren’t needed anymore.
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyj4oSFN3bz
Only-
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmPHTajSJdz
Fwooosh!
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaxkmkhhZBS
Action!
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhmfx3qaSmq
Izuku lifted his hands and caught Bakugo in his explosive charge with his telekinesis. With a twitch of his hand, he throws Bakugo off the building.
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg2fqwTW13J
Well, that’s what was supposed to happen. Instead, Bakugo unleashed enough force in an explosion to counteract the strength of the telekinetic hold.
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvo9XF4F5R7
Izuku: “Wha-”
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpY3NhyRCZe
Bakugo bursts out of the smoke, damaged but still intact, and headbutts Izuku.
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxbrpGsbyuM
Izuku: “Gah-”
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4HLCVlqsUY
Bakugo: “Stun Grenade!”
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ44BaZCILop
A flash of light envelops Izuku’s eyes, preventing any action for a second. That second was all Bakugo needed; he grabbed Izuku’s arm and flipped him onto the ground hard.
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWMWfC7L0Kk
Bakugo: “You think you’re the only one who improved! You can never compare to me, Deku! Not even with a-”
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtIP4n5VnXF
A burst of psychic energy erupted out of Izuku, knocking Bakugo into the air. Even while temporarily blind, Izuku still could guess where his opponent was.
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtps1q9Aio4
Predicting where he sent Bakugo, Izuku quickly got up, ripped concrete from the ceiling, and hurled it into the sky.
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdXdiq7SgDC
Bakugo smiled at the assault and skillfully dodged the large piles of earth. The ones he couldn’t dodge, he destroyed. The ones he couldn’t destroy…
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡicSQD6FxtE
Bakugo: “Die!!”
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡduae0Tt1uS
He grabbed and threw it at Izuku with incredible speed. Still blind, Izuku couldn’t react to the speedball and was hit in the head.
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0PiyUcr5IN
Concentration broken, Izuku’s assault ended, causing all the rubble to fall back to earth. Free to attack, Bakugo exploded into the dazed Izuku, intent on ending the battle with a big right hook. But the esper predicted as much and placed a shield around himself.
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvPqzT77FiG
The resulting blast blew both titans off the building and caused the building to start collapsing.
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiqH71huDFC
Much to the annoyance of both teens, this battle would not be as easy as they thought.
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX8AFLrogKk
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwcz7nzmDOO
Momo watched the battle while driving through the city on the bike she created.
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYG0blE67LG
Momo: “I guess it will take some time for Izuku to win.”
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡitRTgUPw8r
Kirishima: “Y-Yeah.”
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOzKxrClUSM
The young man wanted to focus on the fight; he really did. But he was hanging onto Momo, one of the most attractive girls in the class. She was also wearing the most revealing outfit.
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv1bCYxdF2i
He’s no pervert, but he’s still a man.
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG5qsmVv8PG
Kirishima: “A-Are we close to any civilians yet?”
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ33JImdQt11
Momo: “No, keep an eye out.”
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1XqvyJFvdC
Kirishima: “Righ-”
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSsVjmRCpPV
Just then a frog girl jumped over the bike. Time slowed down as Tsuyu and Kirishima locked surprised eyes. When it resumed-
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEM6oNjQEcy
Kirishima: “Wait!”
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5wIWxk3qVM
Momo slammed the brakes, forcing the bike to skid to a stop. Tsuyu, after landing, jumped over to them.
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCKDKkrl1s1
Tsuyu: “You came just in time, kero.”
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhPdX5rhgvi
Momo: “Why? What’s-”
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbLnREP91HU
That’s when they noticed how out of breath Tsuyu was. The frog girl pointed behind them, and then they understood why.
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7jjj8Q4Txg
Like some horror villain, Kiri emerged from a corner nonchalantly. The presence of Mom and Kirishima didn’t change her pace; instead, she continued her slow stride forward. As if their capture was inevitable.
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxJiwfcisrz
Kirishima: “No way… ”
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtVtUWr9gYM
Momo: “I didn’t expect to run into her this soon.”
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnY2Wgjc2d8
Kirishima swallowed any fear he may have. He can’t let something like this freeze him in his tracks. He’s going to be a hero! Just like Crimson Riot.
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWC1iXU6quu
He got off the bike and began his walk toward Kiri.
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwlayGnTlXT
Kirishima: “Get the civilian out of here; I’ll hold this villain off.”
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs26NRKBX2e
Momo only hesitated for a moment before nodding. Tsuyu, understanding the situation, hoped onto the bike. A few seconds later, the two were speeding off.
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIDU7dWrKai
Despite that, Kiri didn’t chase them. After all, she had a new target.
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ffaFdugq9
The two met in the middle of the street and stared each other down. Kirishima might be a head taller than Kiri, but he felt like he was the one being looked down on.
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFrmwxYt3h1
Kiri: “Rock-man… you’re brave.”
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWm1xSBZ94k
Kirishima: “Haha, thanks. But what hero isn’t?”
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOhgSFYRN22
Kiri: “… True. But bravery… isn’t enough.”
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3T5xFXKZAO
Before Kirishima could react, he was in a wall, and his whole body hurt.
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK4AU6Ce0Wn
Kiri: “Stay down.”
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡce9hRzuNIV
Kiri spared him a glance before continuing her walk. But she didn’t get far before she had to turn around and block a blow from a fully hardened Kirishima.
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVlLgkS28Fy
Kirishima: “Don’t count me out just yet!”
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmUc3iSgewH
He was hurt, really hurt, but he wouldn’t let it end like that. Even if he can only buy a second, he will gladly do so. That’s the purpose of a hero, a shield, to defend until the last second!
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvfdgUOntLe
Kiri: “…Okay.”
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrpaNbMnaBp
Unbeknownst to Kirishima, Kiri smiled at his fierce determination.
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5DOokDpzwN
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFDjxXFVP3o
Jiro: ‘That was too close!’
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtEec8Q9ZwX
Her hiding spot was pretty good until the building started falling apart!
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYx1nSR4ltd
Jiro: ‘I didn’t expect their battle to be that destructive. But honestly, I should’ve known.’
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJON7JnD86T
Now Jiro was outside, running to find another place to hide before-
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhQlkwrQd4j
Mina: “Well, looka here, a target.”
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq0ZIVFFpu6
Jiro looked up to see Mina on a nearby ceiling, giving the girl a sly smile.
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRB2X1SgNyM
Jiro: “Is there any way I can convince you to let me go?”
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDsJV7q4MPs
Mina: “No can do civilian; I need to finish this up and catch back up to Ida.”
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXxFks1PUuv
Jiro: “Tch.”
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFFa4OFw9uc
Jiro turned tail and ran from the villain. But she knew she couldn’t outrun Mina for long. She needed a plan.
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdxijPy4Xs5
Jiro: ‘No rule saying we can’t defend ourselves.’
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqXA4Qvnxkh
Jiro backtracked until she found what she was looking for, a dead end. She ran into the alley and acted like she had nowhere to go.
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf06xVOOjWr
Mina: “End of the line, hehehe.”
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHTywQwnwdJ
Jiro turns back to see Mina coming closer to her while holding the capture tape.
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSKqvriZPdW
Jiro: “What do you plan to do to me, you dastardly villain?”
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZXFkEc0GYE
Mina: “Come on, you can put a bit more energy into it.”
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzTK0ZWb8u7
Jiro: “Sorry, I’ll be louder next time.”
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyWYhN0L7Nk
At that moment, Jiro plugged her ear jacks into the sound amplifiers in her boots. Next, Jiro unleashed a powerful sound wave at Mina.
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhlIAf9QBad
Mina: “Aaaah!”
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhRBRmTwbiT
Mina dropped the capture tape and covered her ears. This gave Jiro that chance to dash for it. She grabbed it, and before Mina could recover, Jiro wrapped the tape around Mina and pushed her to the ground.
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡriQoh2jKyQ
Mina: “Ugh, what just happened?”
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡba0AMINU8A
Jiro: “A civilian just captured you.”
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR978foSnlg
Mina: “But… that’s not fair! You can do that?”
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO35DASwzMJ
Jiro: “No one said we can’t. Later.”
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ThaPkKVqM
Jiro ran out of the alley quickly, knowing a hero or villain would be drawn to the sound.
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4x3oFpqaUq
Mina: “Darn it!”301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXcHmcuLPqp
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRzN1ZHjplu
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTAcFzjAZC7
All Might smiled at the turn of events. Young Midoriya and young Bakugo’s destined battle was as destructive as she expected. He just hopes those two can settle their differences.
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3nsxTqh4VV
Because together, they would be far better heroes.
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡguRDbKQDu4
All Might: ‘But young Bakugo won’t learn from his mistakes… I may have to expel him. It would be a shame, but if he doesn’t change, then he will be more of a villain than a hero.’
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfG30wcD1Iy
On a lighter note, he was glad Kyoka Jiro was able to notice that loophole. Even civilians, depending on their quirk, can and should defend themselves until a hero arrives.
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOkcij0jBBN
In fact, is that not what young Midoriya did? A civilian, with no quirk at the time, helping out his fellow man. Such heroism can bring out the hero out of the professionals.
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuzelNJotGs
Civilians can be a wild card for both the heroes and villains.
301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaU13Ob43Dk
All Might: “In other words, expect the unexpected!”
