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.
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLIvbUTCUxp
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.
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbbgIk2KDvQ
Sero: “Please, tell me one of you has a plan.”
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMW6Nk70J7D
Kirishima: “Yeah, we’re not in the best spot.”
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZNJgMdwQCP
The group looks to Izuku and Momo, who then look at each other.
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcngkTe0IG5
Izuku: “U-Us?”
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡECYtJye67d
Momo: “Well, I was coming up with something. Do you have anything?”
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe3gVjJOk08
Izuku: “Really? That’s great! All I know is that Kacchan will come for me when it starts.”
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡod18copH9H
Momo: “Can you beat him?”
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBa8wQcsPGF
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.
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4owFnuX7L4
Izuku: “Y-Yes. I don’t know how long it will take, but… I can win.”
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyRjZxjFnwU
Momo: “Good, because you’re our best chance for winning.”
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwgedfZHCK0
Izuku: “I-I am?”
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOMEPW4lPD3
Kirishima: “Of course!”
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡar8lE9BfB0
Sero: “You’re our strongest team member.”
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTOg7bvuhrs
Uraraka: “With you on our side, we can win this!”
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH2WfSwMTgL
Izuku: “T-T-Thank you all. I-I won’t let you down!”
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrHUh14JC6P
Momo: “Good, so here’s the plan.”
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ69dlXuNzmD
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJrqScNBTdZ
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.
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVmaZyRJDwx
Mina: “Haha, this will be fun!”
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE1atrLeu1e
Ida: “It may just be a training exercise, but it still pains me to be a villain.”
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO3KhJLFiNX
Mina: “Come on, just have fun with it.”
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUZ5T0oRptF
Ida: “That will be hard considering the company.”
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxv3ETqNXHN
He looks to his other teammates. Todoroki was sitting against the bomb; clearly, he was planning on guarding the bomb.
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMgnGPMsjWg
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…
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXw0YrufVlc
Bakugo: “Deku… ”
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2zy6Br7nr5
He was a bomb all to himself. Ida could even see him shaking, barely able to contain his wrath.
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB659lluY3W
Ida: “The others will most likely have their own plans. Can I count on you to help me capture the civilians?”
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGWkimEIgWz
Mina: “Righto boss! You can count on me!”
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ39GYj5B9xs
It was then, when a loud siren was heard across the city. The exercise has begun.
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbqZiWbXcnj
Ida: “Alright, lets-”
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIBykqNxNUc
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.
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXutVlVJlAg
Izuku: “KACCHAN!! FIGHT ME!!”
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4NtkcgvqXh
That did it. Bakugo’s face split into a maddening grin before exploding into action.
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4epyOKfOVR
Bakugo: “You… FUCKING NERD!!”
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKRt94aW4y4
Tae followed soon after, jumping out the window and dashing into the city below.
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYx62G9WPzm
Ida: “That’s our cue. Let’s… ahem… go capture those civilians for our evil plans! Hahaha!”
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCeD9hdAVln
Mina: “That’s the spirit! Led the way.”
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLXkUlgqwGr
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMpc30sur0O
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.
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0NNmWRDkmg
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.
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡenJaMR6TcA
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.
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3VmXo6Mp5y
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxYG3u5hFuK
The plan worked! But it also put a target on Izuku’s back.
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzJ1IX5U4bY
Izuku: ‘Not like it wasn’t already there.’
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnUAz1N327K
He floats down to the ceiling below and waits for his former friend to appear. He didn’t have to wait long.
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdjXiwP7A3j
Appearing with a loud boom, Bakugo shot down onto the ceiling. He raises up from his knee while sparks erupt from his hands.
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg8xVujR8xf
Bakugo: “Deku… ”
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1aKbI3Gvez
Izuku: “Kacchan… ”
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOH16B0kuvU
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!?”
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlpycydMCm5
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!”
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡobbGfcprKi
Izuku thinks back to the strategy meeting when he explained a bit about his relationship with Kacchan. Specifically, Momo’s response to his nickname.
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQt6XECwtw1
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.”
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe6fFKzJQDR
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.
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbVBNRUC31a
The air was electric and ready for the clash of young titans. Words weren’t needed anymore.
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡghUDFvnTnf
Only-
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB9IOW6yKit
Fwooosh!
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbnxIbGpRjM
Action!
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIef7IuNFvs
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.
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjHGAj2XiCT
Well, that’s what was supposed to happen. Instead, Bakugo unleashed enough force in an explosion to counteract the strength of the telekinetic hold.
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyZxBvnLn9I
Izuku: “Wha-”
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnNgihnPHSU
Bakugo bursts out of the smoke, damaged but still intact, and headbutts Izuku.
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi7yaJ1LKQo
Izuku: “Gah-”
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRlCzRiSdbG
Bakugo: “Stun Grenade!”
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjUzfEog2iW
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.
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0YKy7wPWpt
Bakugo: “You think you’re the only one who improved! You can never compare to me, Deku! Not even with a-”
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR3Pa1ES8uH
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.
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmCXuKDEvTn
Predicting where he sent Bakugo, Izuku quickly got up, ripped concrete from the ceiling, and hurled it into the sky.
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCNgnlpbFlT
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…
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgC4yjBLLFF
Bakugo: “Die!!”
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZbb4o0Hz7v
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.
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaGzOmowKDg
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.
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Izm8OTTnS
The resulting blast blew both titans off the building and caused the building to start collapsing.
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBBGYGTfXHp
Much to the annoyance of both teens, this battle would not be as easy as they thought.
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ3nilYpTwc
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHl1GtLvmt9
Momo watched the battle while driving through the city on the bike she created.
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI97erlpWNo
Momo: “I guess it will take some time for Izuku to win.”
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvtAhUDIfUd
Kirishima: “Y-Yeah.”
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfWiaVRLGTQ
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.
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOQvFvJoip4
He’s no pervert, but he’s still a man.
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡylvtXXOGtq
Kirishima: “A-Are we close to any civilians yet?”
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJbF1xWmzrH
Momo: “No, keep an eye out.”
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTKOrymPq0a
Kirishima: “Righ-”
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHdEc93jz8l
Just then a frog girl jumped over the bike. Time slowed down as Tsuyu and Kirishima locked surprised eyes. When it resumed-
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4caAi4Q5l4
Kirishima: “Wait!”
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFMXkLlne1O
Momo slammed the brakes, forcing the bike to skid to a stop. Tsuyu, after landing, jumped over to them.
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKAToFlyW7M
Tsuyu: “You came just in time, kero.”
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt1oOD4D8cQ
Momo: “Why? What’s-”
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDT5FvWz43o
That’s when they noticed how out of breath Tsuyu was. The frog girl pointed behind them, and then they understood why.
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV92Se4ukok
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.
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA5jb2e9g8G
Kirishima: “No way… ”
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzzW5L2b3J3
Momo: “I didn’t expect to run into her this soon.”
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgB9CrS4rI4
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.
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ZKa0trlhQ
He got off the bike and began his walk toward Kiri.
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOkxGZNSt0C
Kirishima: “Get the civilian out of here; I’ll hold this villain off.”
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuGtZRZydgI
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.
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ92fNp2HPj6
Despite that, Kiri didn’t chase them. After all, she had a new target.
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhqt6RLCw3d
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.
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1QIHp23ns4
Kiri: “Rock-man… you’re brave.”
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5BNr1zwYGw
Kirishima: “Haha, thanks. But what hero isn’t?”
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0M8fSVRp6b
Kiri: “… True. But bravery… isn’t enough.”
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFyOXFH6Tlr
Before Kirishima could react, he was in a wall, and his whole body hurt.
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvEhjesRQmx
Kiri: “Stay down.”
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx8Jc4BslLE
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.
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5MYALeTl2j
Kirishima: “Don’t count me out just yet!”
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOTAf7G7QNM
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!
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxFDdZ1uzq0
Kiri: “…Okay.”
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmLBaJGJm7x
Unbeknownst to Kirishima, Kiri smiled at his fierce determination.
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrvxPS6EDEI
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv0dBNzyqLj
Jiro: ‘That was too close!’
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJsFrzJ5FFH
Her hiding spot was pretty good until the building started falling apart!
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5OY4JeNeSA
Jiro: ‘I didn’t expect their battle to be that destructive. But honestly, I should’ve known.’
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEG3tiC994P
Now Jiro was outside, running to find another place to hide before-
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOv8OFAiZ7T
Mina: “Well, looka here, a target.”
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcFrkPLCFCz
Jiro looked up to see Mina on a nearby ceiling, giving the girl a sly smile.
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0EREJe510r
Jiro: “Is there any way I can convince you to let me go?”
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLXRFgZdpVr
Mina: “No can do civilian; I need to finish this up and catch back up to Ida.”
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq8yPEKHEND
Jiro: “Tch.”
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7iYLb8MfN6
Jiro turned tail and ran from the villain. But she knew she couldn’t outrun Mina for long. She needed a plan.
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡza7tNhNcUZ
Jiro: ‘No rule saying we can’t defend ourselves.’
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA8nsOLBYJ2
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.
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ND6KUOXw9
Mina: “End of the line, hehehe.”
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbnmt0rwGEK
Jiro turns back to see Mina coming closer to her while holding the capture tape.
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYPYB0BrjIy
Jiro: “What do you plan to do to me, you dastardly villain?”
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5KOkm0TDVy
Mina: “Come on, you can put a bit more energy into it.”
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfGyx5GuKQD
Jiro: “Sorry, I’ll be louder next time.”
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmCQt7FW16U
At that moment, Jiro plugged her ear jacks into the sound amplifiers in her boots. Next, Jiro unleashed a powerful sound wave at Mina.
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9nJjTQ0OMw
Mina: “Aaaah!”
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPcVe1C1Kes
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.
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRCh5aJ5jx7
Mina: “Ugh, what just happened?”
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXchmDTFbUs
Jiro: “A civilian just captured you.”
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaurS0UtYz8
Mina: “But… that’s not fair! You can do that?”
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEnvD4zMK0k
Jiro: “No one said we can’t. Later.”
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlhs333VnMi
Jiro ran out of the alley quickly, knowing a hero or villain would be drawn to the sound.
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpoFWvKOPs9
Mina: “Darn it!”179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvY4bm9D8mw
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq6RfH0fmTD
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ52aH797bdw
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.
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZTWPS1gm7Q
Because together, they would be far better heroes.
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡycNM5IKqJm
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.’
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVKru1hEolg
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.
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡORHmKjsiLF
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.
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBLnLgxDGVE
Civilians can be a wild card for both the heroes and villains.
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnF9KojJ6xb
All Might: “In other words, expect the unexpected!”
