Shimmering into existence, a strange yellow creature appears in front of Bakugo.
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAsJADrmJND
Present Mic: “And there it is! The secret technique Kanto has been teasing this whole festival! But wait a minute! Isn’t this supposed to be a 1v1? How is that fair!?”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaDAcAmZOTc
Sabrina: “Don’t worry. I won’t fight as long as Kadabra, a mental projection I created, is on the field. And half the damage done to it goes to me. And vice versa.”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK3DuNKPFAN
She says while sitting down in a meditative position. It only takes a moment before Midnight agrees to the strategy.
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8jSiYRqgVy
Midnight: “I allow it! If Kadabra or Sabrina is knocked out, Bakugo wins!”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzWPYFNGhCF
Jiro: “Why do I think she only agreed because she likes Kanto?”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMNabswr0E5
Uraraka: “That’s not fair. Bakugo was so close.”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEnSuOA35iA
Tokoyami: “Concealing your advantages is another part of battle. She was wise to keep it hidden until now.”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ92ws4bamUy
Uraraka: “I know… but still.”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkzU6yug5Y7
She looks at Bakugo, who breathes out hot air before nodding his head. He won’t complain; that doesn’t solve anything.
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ53UY6F5gXf
So he surges forward, not at the creature, but at Sabrina. Midnight did say Kadabra or Sabrina.
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgo5yVtYBoP
However-
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuCxj7BxMSc
Sabrina: “Teleport. Reflect.”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhd6MXeaE6y
Before Bakugo can reach her, Kadabra teleports in front of him and tanks the blast meant for Sabrina.
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaggh92k1DY
Bakugo: “Tch.”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxsarxy0Lho
The boy backs off as the smoke clears, revealing a floating Kadabra surrounded by a rainbow shell.
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRavEmvR9BQ
Sabrina: “Kinesis.”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8voBI2Ap5e
Kadabra locks eyes with Bakugo, and suddenly his vision gets darker. He can barely see; it’s like he’s nearsighted!
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPTBQVq9is8
Bakugo: “W-What did you do?!”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCeemsqFgRx
Sabrina: “Psybeam.”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ60GoBQvxdr
Rainbow energy gathers in Kadabra’s eyes before shooting towards Bakugo. He is able to dodge, but only barely.
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDY6fYsdBvO
Forgoing Sabrina and focusing on the creature, he charges forward and unleashes a barrage of mini-bombs. But they are noticeably weaker than before.
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrzMqx5RCV2
What’s worse, the shield was tanking everything.
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ85W4gJPfsf
Sabrina: “And the finale, Disable.”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuCPWa7QxkN
Kadabra’s eyes once more shine; this time it’s a bright light that cuts through the smoke and hits Bakugo in the eyes.
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuyG1W3tzHF
At that moment, his body was locked up. He growled, demanding his body to move, but it wouldn’t.
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9uYVmvoSa1
Sabrina: “It lasts only 10 seconds. But that’s more than enough.”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa8vZ5zVkm2
Kadabra lifts his hands, and Bakugo is lifted while constrained by a blue aura.
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX5HBYWsOat
Bakugo: ‘No… No! Not like this!’
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKYTL5y8Xzq
Through sheer fucking will, Bakugo squeezed the last of his strength to explode himself straight toward Sabrina. This completely took her off guard, and so she was rammed by the Bakugo missile.
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAqPsWJFIIZ
Sabrina: “Kadabra!”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUdNrd4nqXu
But before Sabrina could fall onto the grass behind her, Kadabra flung Bakugo away. A second later, they both landed on the grass.
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv9ubIIeK5v
Midnight: “Double ring out! It’s a tie!”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9GlLJx2RhM
Present Mic: “Well, would you look at that! Our first tie right before the final battle! Since both students seem like they have fight left in them, we’ll have to think of a tie-breaker! Sick around, folks, the finale is almost here!”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡByHuJEw8If
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5xnSlC6zlo
Despite that, however, Bakugo had other plans.
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVojVphYQrx
Bakugo: “I refuse.”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg8nFdHrxqX
Midnight: “Say what?”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsrtadQbvXL
Bakugo was in the nurse's office, getting his arms healed after straining them beyond the limit.
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwdxDvPUx06
Bakugo: “A draw means nothing. It’s worth nothing. That’s not a victory, and I refuse to go along with any sort of bullshit ideas you guys have for a tiebreaker. I lost, so just give Kanto second place. I don’t care. I’ll just win for real next time.”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcmtaelUXm7
Midnight and Present Mic look at each other before sighing.
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM7DMNbRpYg
Midnight: “Fine. If that’s what you want.”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXzcp1tGY3v
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo7o7kziSGg
Present Mic: “Well, due to Bakugo thinking a draw is as good as a loss, that means the finale is on!! Kanto or Tae, class 1-B or class 1-A, which one will go home with the gold!!?”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsvaIwLwQR5
Uraraka: “What!?”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzaPPepOC4z
Jiro: “Didn’t see that coming.”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡplIn44EB2q
Uraraka: “After all that about being number one, and he just-”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDZvXYbVJxl
Izuku: “I get it.”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQvrPIWRlEM
The class looks up to see Izuku coming down from the steps.
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxiITy0bvR8
Momo: “Midoriya, where were you!?”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0FGZsilIf4
Izuku: “I… just needed some time to think. That’s not important right now. I’m just as surprised as you, Uraraka, but I do understand.”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGzc0uMWfJG
Uraraka: “Then why?”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG4NJOAeDHK
Izuku: “Because Kacchan wants a complete victory, one that can’t be questioned. A draw can be questioned. Any tie-breaker game won’t help either. It’s not a real fight, and so not a victory, even if he did win.”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxw1FQXqMpK
Uraraka: “But he could have won the tie-breaker and then beat Tae, becoming number one!”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFO8yq7V8Zx
Izuku: “… That’s not the number one he wants to be.”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnrU8cwRfYc
Kirishima: “Hmmmm, it might have been best to stop anyway. He really pushed himself past the limit. Kanto is pretty banged up, but she still has that mental projection thing.”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0HqGNhUatS
Denki: “Sounds like you’re saying Bakugo couldn’t win regardless.”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7aiDtQtNNL
Kirishima: “I’m not saying that! Just that it would be harder, is all.”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJtx1kNLhu1
Sero: “You guys obsess over being number one too much. What’s wrong with 3rd place?”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOIUs5jYfUA
Uraraka: “Nothing, but-”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz4bmqMZWYY
Izuku: “Sero’s right. Chasing the best can backfire. Giving your all is enough.”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqD3rGw4mVp
He thinks back to Endeavor, clear evidence that proves his claim.
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCtrAxpyOIi
Uraraka: “Then what about Tae? You threw the match.”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAt0pCd3vqu
Kirishima: “Yeah, what was with that?”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgbXPPqHi5J
Izuku: “It’s not like that! I was just surprised by… Kiri’s crying.”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWnhUA5JkOG
Kirishima: “Wait, what!?”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡenvdeJQJDH
Mina: “Whoa.”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKLpIT2Qm0W
Momo: “Is she alright?”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2I2yPit08D
Izuku: “Well… you don’t have to worry about it. I’ll handle it.”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6XdfKWDHpb
Kirishima: “Hard not to worry when she’s fighting next.”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVBRoKWIPle
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5mCFEeru7a
At last, the finale. The contestants were given five minutes to prepare while the stage was repaired. The day was dragging; it was time to end this.
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Y9bZb0FOu
Present Mic went through his usual spiel and the match began. But Kiri didn’t move.
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTwoFNgNLTJ
She didn’t care anymore. The sounds of confusion didn’t help calm her mind. Right now, she was just waiting for Kanto to ring her out. To be done with this.
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcvHdsyV1RR
But that changed when Kano opened her mouth to speak.
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwIh44LO7SD
Sabrina: “I know what you are.”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs2EiptzAZs
Kiri: “… What?”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4GZ9U8DenC
Sabrina: “You shouldn’t be in this tournament. A mental projection, no matter how real it may seem, is not a real person. That’s as if Tokoyami wanted his Dark Shadow to compete.”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKcUBQZ6mTV
Kiri: “… You’re right.”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVFXMvc3in8
Sabrina: “Then why are you still here?”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡueKeI5Z0w9
Kiri: “… Because… ”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkOnaav8Ako
Kiri: ‘If he doesn’t need me… why am I fighting?’
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbPcKWsTik3
Sabrina: “Is it because he can’t let go?”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAwQMGHHVcs
Her head shoots up, and she looks at Sabrina.
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdP9Fg2glZW
Kiri: “What do you mean?”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg9J046tykf
Sabrina: “A similar thing happened to me before I met my friends. I split off a part of myself, creating a mental projection born from my repressed desire for friendship. One that contrasted with my strong desire to improve my quirk. Is that what happened to Midoriya?”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtx7EV0mHfO
Kiri thinks back to her creation, the night of her birth. The driving force behind it.
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmkQlCElpvG
Kiri: ‘Am I-’
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡufZlMgMJBO
Sabrina: “It’s not good for him.”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdo048amqIM
Kiri: “It’s… not?”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI0O6VmCcmv
Sabrina: “No. He is not whole, incomplete. He is unable to use the power that you have, the power that sustains you. But worse than that, he will not be able to grow as a person.”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFvfXGqSUDH
Kiri: “But I… still want to be with him. I… love him.”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ94MUnSu8sp
Sabrina: “Of course you do; you were designed to. I’m sorry.”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB8FQTB1lIi
That was it, the final nail. Now you’re telling her, that her love is not even real?
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl6jEta8wxO
She collapses to her knees.
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnIMPmkB5nR
Izuku: “Kiri?”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO5HMby58r2
Present Mic: “What’s this!? Is Kiri Tae giving up?! What’s happening down there!?”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKKyHtsgypI
The esper approaches the mental construct and can’t help but feel pity.
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4IivkwZEqA
Sabrina: “I will help him, as Kaoru helped me. Whatever love you two may share, it will only end in tragedy. You will hurt each other in the end. This is the best thing you can do for him.”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNoIrjbuuFP
Kiri: ‘To disappear… perhaps that’s the only thing I can do for Izu now. He… doesn’t need me anymore.’
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoEqv14QYdL
Sabrina goes to grab Kiri’s head; a psychic attack there should knock her out. Then she can help return her to Midoriya in private.
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAURZdM0St6
Tatsumaki: “Kiri!”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5a1JkQfJVu
Kiri tenses as she hears her sister’s voice. The sudden movement from her stilled Sabrina’s hand.
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVYwLHigLYd
Tatsumaki: “What are you doing?! After coming so far, how can you give up!? I know you’re better than that. Snap out of it!”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJUKfZFDcM5
With her voice, Kiri remembers a fact she was too narrow-minded to see. There were others who she loved, who loved her.
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHTAzHTtUaK
Fubuki: “I don’t know what’s going on, Kiri, but… even I’m worried. Mom is worried; we’re all worried. Don’t give up, not like this.”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAxyfTp4tSA
People who would be sad to see her disappear. Family.
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9AjML9u6Pm
Kirishima: “Don’t give up, Tae!”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKUCPxe6Jnk
And even friends.
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡea9BhiRikw
Izuku: “Fight!”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwPcmpsn2dN
Izuku: “I still want to do this together, Kiri! I want to be heroes with you! So don’t give up, not on me or yourself! Because heroes never give up!”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRK5z83yYDD
She even has an ideal to strive towards.
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8cYx14v6Pi
She stands, knees not fully steady, but stronger than a moment before. Kiri now stands on a foundation all her own.
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhBru96nihZ
Kiri: “Maybe you’re right. It might be better for Izu… if I disappear. But my love is real. I love my family and my friends. I can’t disappear. I don’t want to make them sad. I want to live.”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJCES6DpRF3
The esper’s eyes widen at the declaration.
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZEwtTGCc4x
Sabrina: ‘She has family and friends? How?’
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡym0s2GP9np
Was she wrong? Was Kiri different to from what she imagined? Her other half was nothing like this. The person she was couldn’t have made real friends on her own, and the love was twisted. The inner conflict made physical nearly broke her family apart.
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMvkXeNcr4v
Sabrina: ‘But this… is different. There is no conflict. The love she has… at least for her family… it doesn’t seemdesigned.’
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHVS6HWrjQE
Sabrina: “Hmmm, very well. Then prove it.”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoe3vcEbmN8
Sabrina creates her psi-whips, and Kiri gets into her fighting stance.
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbpvWmTauKe
Present Mic: “Finally! It seems like they’re ready to start! Buckle up your seat belts, folks!”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI88Rbrz1sy
Kiri dashes forward, ready to dodge the whips. But those were just feints.
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ51FVjabL2
Sabrina: “Lock.”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwf4QakqsGY
Kiri freezes in her tracks, and in the next moment, a psychic force pushes her back.
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPCGEVbUV15
Present Mic: “Is it about to end already!?”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7aiUxyH7ge
Kirishima: “Tae!”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6e6raMBjDB
Straining her tactile telekinesis, Kiri breaks the lock and kicks the air below her. Far in the sky, Kiri counters by unleashing several air cannons at Sabrina.
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiRaX3LJSbK
The esper swipes them away with her whips, but some weren’t aimed at her. Some cannons damaged the stage, creating usable rubble for later.
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuln0zhd2Hr
But before that, Kiri kicks off the air and rockets towards Sabrina. Quickly, she transforms her whips into a shield that blocks Kiri’s blow.
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJxEQAUfGKp
With Kiri touching her psi-shield, Sabrina was able to electrify her. Kiri cried in pain, but she didn’t stop. She forced her hands into the shield, and with a grunt of effort, tore it apart.
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOj7mAWeSyZ
Stumbling from the energy dispersal, Sabrina was open for an overhead blow.
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFFDMsIIhxC
Sabrina: “Lock!”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEehQY42hXw
But this time, it only stopped Kiri long enough for Sabrina to jump away. Kiri didn’t let this chance pass; she increased the strength of her blow and caused further damage to the stage.
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbG2FAeE6vG
Sabrina: “Kadabra!”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡalUfN4KfuQ
The mental projection appeared once again, ready to face this new opponent.
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrLzqv5eP1t
Midnight: “Sabrina! The same rules apply!”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpHGfy7xc9Z
Sabrina: “I know.”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb5Jc5xcI8C
Sabrina: ‘It will be mental projection versus mental projection.’
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFEpVK88H6o
Kiri charges the new opponent.
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDK5vyH9jiU
Sabrina: “Reflect.”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW9mxWf2JeG
This time, Sabrina made sure to stand while Kadabra fought. But that didn’t help her resist the wind pressure generated when Kiri struck Kadabra.
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm4ctGUNY5e
Doing a front flip, Kiri delivered a devastating aerial axe kick that managed to push Kadabra back. But Kiri kept the kick going and struck the stage, damaging it even further.
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMPazHRd7hK
Sabrina: “Kinesis.”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK3D1eaclyk
But it had no effect. Even depressed, Kiri paid attention. Her eyes were closed, and so those attacks won’t work.
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKrrf8cNro9
Sabrina: “That’s not so much better. You can’t fight with your eyes closed.”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqsRmAORqfm
Which seemed to be the case as Kiri struck the ground beside Kadabra.
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXFlydG8hCF
Sabrina: “Dragon Shock Wave.”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeQZM9tpKvZ
Kadabra points its silver spoon at Kiri and unleashes a yellow lightning bolt shaped like a dragon. Kiri is struck by the attack and hisses in pain. But she soldiers on and attacks the ground where Kadabra was.
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCQlM9toX6R
Yes, it was. For Kadabra was already dodging by the time Kiri was moving.
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqlXqHZjGR1
Sabrina: “Press the attack.”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ8FoSNnAPJ
And so on it went, Kiri attacking blindly while being struck by several bolts of electricity. Her passive barrier was slowly being worn down. Her attacks are doing less and less damage to the stage.
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm32m9igsjU
She was even missing worse over time, hitting places where Kadabra wasn’t close to.
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnI1eyfuYEe
Neito: “Hahaha! Class 1-A’s final hope for victory is fighting blind!”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwD9S7lkpLu
Kaoru: “You got this, Sabrina! Bring home the gold!”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnmKhhdJbak
Uraraka: “Uh, no.”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9lEwgQLuEW
Kirishima: “Open your eyes, Tae!”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHkoNvq3LAr
Izuku: “No, I think she’s onto something.”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJu0X9Q8HWp
His class turns to Izuku in surprise, but he says nothing. They’ll have to just wait and see. But he’s not the only one who notices something. Shiho also notices the increasingly damaged stage.
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIDmRy9rsU4
And it was mostly on the side where Sabrina was. The stage was barely hanging around.
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP864Pfw5tS
It was time.
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPtHeROeYPR
When the dragon came this time, Kiri dodged it cleanly.
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1WVxgBR1Gq
Sabrina: “What?”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYjtI9LjTX3
Then Kiri turned to Sabrina, eyes still closed, and balled her fist. Her body flexes, focusing her tactile telekinesis around it.
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7IMUg6B63d
Suddenly, air was rapidly being sucked into her fist. But not just that, all the rubble and loose earth were being sucked in too, drawn in by the wind.
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiWOH6Q9zjY
Sabrina: “Kadabra! Thunder Dragon Wave!”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFamgKQ5Fmv
It raises its spoon to the sky and three lightning dragons explode into existence. With a tilt of the spoon, the dragons slam into Kiri.
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMaGrVqpP2o
It’s painful, more pain than she ever experienced.
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4y24JNCY8W
But she doesn’t give up!
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiO0Y1JNBmK
Despite her body breaking down, twitching occasionally from the lightning, Kiri presses on.
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdFpWePRRhJ
Kiri: ‘Because a hero, the one I want to be, doesn’t give up. Never, not when her family is expecting her to win.’
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh6D592wAvs
So Kiri goes plus ultra!
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlQQM4GUXbW
She puts even more power into her fist, enough to draw even the lightning assaulting her.
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHqdFnTWAYT
Sabrina’s attack was no more, swallowed up by Kiri’s fist.
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg63AvBWiuL
Sabrina: “Impossible.”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVlmdvz45g7
Suddenly, the air stills. It was time; she gathered all she needed. Kiri calls out her ultimate move, one she made inspired by her sister and by her brother’s number one hero.
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQzXxGCNiZh
Kiri: “Thunder Style-”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdTf9m9zmj6
Her body tenses once more.
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXTcdvIp527
Sabrina: “Kadabra! Teleport! Guard!”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBth29D5xG0
Kiri: “Cyclone-”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnbBQKQrKJT
Kadabra appears in front of Sabrina with its arms up, ready to tank the attack.
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVOIWjKEIQP
Kiri: “SMAAAAAASHHHH!!!”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcD31lgsdRn
She unleashes the gathered storm, aimed slightly at the ground, and the results are explosive.
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRLqZcxc8PJ
A tornado comparable to the other two great bombs of the tournament batters everything in front of Kiri. The surge of thunder, earth, and wind slams through Kadabra and engulfs Sabrina.
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAuDofDhVOT
Thankfully, Midnight got out of the way, and Cementoss protected the audience with concrete walls.
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡddDu5pVjhr
A few seconds later, the storm passed and the walls were lowered.
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIrSDYEeUVf
Present Mic: “Another bomb!? Kids these days, am I right!? But did it do the job, or will this be another upset!?”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPp1uQt2aJt
Depends on who you ask. Because the results became clear when the smoke did the same.
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM4vpBq599y
Kiri was on the ground, breathing heavily, clearly past her limit. Kadabra was heavily damaged but still able to move. But Sabrina-
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZeL8WsaKeI
Sabrina: “Hm, well done.”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ZqdnmgeCK
Thanks to Kiri’s strategy and the fact Sabrina couldn’t defend herself well with Kadabra on the field, the stage beneath her feet was destroyed. The girl was on her knees, damaged and out of the ring.
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmWZ4RiIH07
Midnight: “As per the rules established, Sabrina is out of bounds!”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9POQafnhoK
Present Mic: “And now the tournament comes to an end! The winner of this year’s Class 1 Sports Festival is Class A’s Kiri Tae!”
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJgKUVEqqj1
The crowd goes nuts over the explosive finish.
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlYeoUmBx06
Neito: “NOOOOOOO!!”
