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.
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1UltR358RD
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.
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrIkOXfV4sD
Sero: “Please, tell me one of you has a plan.”
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡygzYjG6Jzm
Kirishima: “Yeah, we’re not in the best spot.”
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmtudhuLuVU
The group looks to Izuku and Momo, who then look at each other.
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBhJJwAvlJI
Izuku: “U-Us?”
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlcirYpeqsv
Momo: “Well, I was coming up with something. Do you have anything?”
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsyZlBuH88r
Izuku: “Really? That’s great! All I know is that Kacchan will come for me when it starts.”
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTq1mCiYDJi
Momo: “Can you beat him?”
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzQrg3ByD7P
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.
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFVAsd2NXxK
Izuku: “Y-Yes. I don’t know how long it will take, but… I can win.”
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHJ12gsGspx
Momo: “Good, because you’re our best chance for winning.”
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ76pzmyNQQ5
Izuku: “I-I am?”
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTA1h4Y7E6J
Kirishima: “Of course!”
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeXMqDEDsxj
Sero: “You’re our strongest team member.”
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFBZXHGcNbC
Uraraka: “With you on our side, we can win this!”
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ujRmOTZRE
Izuku: “T-T-Thank you all. I-I won’t let you down!”
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzGdmt6xDbk
Momo: “Good, so here’s the plan.”
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgbmbrJy9Nv
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUrKoldctR1
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.
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFfoL2VJwUp
Mina: “Haha, this will be fun!”
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSLRaW7kasE
Ida: “It may just be a training exercise, but it still pains me to be a villain.”
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUtL6X114vD
Mina: “Come on, just have fun with it.”
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ztcylYEpS
Ida: “That will be hard considering the company.”
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPvnpAkajxk
He looks to his other teammates. Todoroki was sitting against the bomb; clearly, he was planning on guarding the bomb.
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2IJkzPSdRb
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…
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQCAmJ0vGGO
Bakugo: “Deku… ”
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIvv6LfKENi
He was a bomb all to himself. Ida could even see him shaking, barely able to contain his wrath.
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxzu0qSQml9
Ida: “The others will most likely have their own plans. Can I count on you to help me capture the civilians?”
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt48FzqMFVI
Mina: “Righto boss! You can count on me!”
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkPcLHrcchl
It was then, when a loud siren was heard across the city. The exercise has begun.
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0l4pv3B8Iq
Ida: “Alright, lets-”
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Q4jvVKVta
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.
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbGdIxqCj8C
Izuku: “KACCHAN!! FIGHT ME!!”
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5tdDfO66EH
That did it. Bakugo’s face split into a maddening grin before exploding into action.
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTTMhPAaAtt
Bakugo: “You… FUCKING NERD!!”
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbLDMbWz09I
Tae followed soon after, jumping out the window and dashing into the city below.
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYkRa9w1uiG
Ida: “That’s our cue. Let’s… ahem… go capture those civilians for our evil plans! Hahaha!”
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxadojcpERZ
Mina: “That’s the spirit! Led the way.”
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiAGLpXxmao
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyB1ABV9O9j
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.
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNNd8uvVY8s
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.
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLmZJNchsp9
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.
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa4RJwhlbJn
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpIkltM62mT
The plan worked! But it also put a target on Izuku’s back.
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs9FPtc6qsQ
Izuku: ‘Not like it wasn’t already there.’
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyFTKSyeKAS
He floats down to the ceiling below and waits for his former friend to appear. He didn’t have to wait long.
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq0stT311aa
Appearing with a loud boom, Bakugo shot down onto the ceiling. He raises up from his knee while sparks erupt from his hands.
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2gOHhQG0hH
Bakugo: “Deku… ”
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnnKPcpukRI
Izuku: “Kacchan… ”
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYMzCrhsJiz
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!?”
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbAL8Cj6q0L
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!”
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7wG8urAmVE
Izuku thinks back to the strategy meeting when he explained a bit about his relationship with Kacchan. Specifically, Momo’s response to his nickname.
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL6u0QjP4IB
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.”
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw7iwgNKuJy
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.
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg0aSTD3VhC
The air was electric and ready for the clash of young titans. Words weren’t needed anymore.
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw0NBKtwSNp
Only-
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaW6hWfS6bB
Fwooosh!
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtKczJnFlPL
Action!
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN35eTqwf5a
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.
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9jLXiLZ1qQ
Well, that’s what was supposed to happen. Instead, Bakugo unleashed enough force in an explosion to counteract the strength of the telekinetic hold.
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJi04GWc3W7
Izuku: “Wha-”
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb6edduDvQa
Bakugo bursts out of the smoke, damaged but still intact, and headbutts Izuku.
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBaSsITIMn3
Izuku: “Gah-”
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8KO1ZRhNfr
Bakugo: “Stun Grenade!”
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLz2cZFIiEt
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.
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwBFuZpI6IA
Bakugo: “You think you’re the only one who improved! You can never compare to me, Deku! Not even with a-”
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlXixCuefzx
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.
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP4zrY4bWsR
Predicting where he sent Bakugo, Izuku quickly got up, ripped concrete from the ceiling, and hurled it into the sky.
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ90SHyI0aBr
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…
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfh88mR8ch8
Bakugo: “Die!!”
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK1iwbM6wio
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.
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡilHDreR4UI
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.
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO9QFV5iYSz
The resulting blast blew both titans off the building and caused the building to start collapsing.
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHDBQDuhXZk
Much to the annoyance of both teens, this battle would not be as easy as they thought.
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiPirYtQpPy
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ80o9ZCATLG
Momo watched the battle while driving through the city on the bike she created.
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCAnt9HZ1f9
Momo: “I guess it will take some time for Izuku to win.”
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVM1rVjqjtk
Kirishima: “Y-Yeah.”
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIruDCSjEKu
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.
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnRbHaRteNk
He’s no pervert, but he’s still a man.
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1jxqWizEwQ
Kirishima: “A-Are we close to any civilians yet?”
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYGhCcNgIyb
Momo: “No, keep an eye out.”
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDbzaVPFywA
Kirishima: “Righ-”
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKei8c7i3xl
Just then a frog girl jumped over the bike. Time slowed down as Tsuyu and Kirishima locked surprised eyes. When it resumed-
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ3S3wqywvQ
Kirishima: “Wait!”
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZxzvqPBMm3
Momo slammed the brakes, forcing the bike to skid to a stop. Tsuyu, after landing, jumped over to them.
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcT5UJuT1sP
Tsuyu: “You came just in time, kero.”
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLnDHLfJ9o0
Momo: “Why? What’s-”
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4VgNIg3c7r
That’s when they noticed how out of breath Tsuyu was. The frog girl pointed behind them, and then they understood why.
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNGJj35lXwc
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.
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7MgswMPmlU
Kirishima: “No way… ”
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKf570rgpsN
Momo: “I didn’t expect to run into her this soon.”
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBjmCRYXR1O
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.
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPlA6x2mMkc
He got off the bike and began his walk toward Kiri.
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlRTVj0Rncd
Kirishima: “Get the civilian out of here; I’ll hold this villain off.”
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIoNs8kXbVt
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.
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHFQHDRaAi8
Despite that, Kiri didn’t chase them. After all, she had a new target.
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡImvuSTQyuf
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.
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHWNmRuLK03
Kiri: “Rock-man… you’re brave.”
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwjDlFKuGe2
Kirishima: “Haha, thanks. But what hero isn’t?”
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUWlCjXUy7h
Kiri: “… True. But bravery… isn’t enough.”
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS6dNHzE5AZ
Before Kirishima could react, he was in a wall, and his whole body hurt.
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ5KChBFsT9
Kiri: “Stay down.”
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU7XTh5F9jI
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.
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡktGleismrP
Kirishima: “Don’t count me out just yet!”
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjJri6gHDHH
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!
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP1ldk3GW3a
Kiri: “…Okay.”
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoctBgLhUVD
Unbeknownst to Kirishima, Kiri smiled at his fierce determination.
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiUVgEkjE9T
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTge4wqBhK9
Jiro: ‘That was too close!’
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ20PKYbuIHV
Her hiding spot was pretty good until the building started falling apart!
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq5j18ZUV0M
Jiro: ‘I didn’t expect their battle to be that destructive. But honestly, I should’ve known.’
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2luKRjWvcb
Now Jiro was outside, running to find another place to hide before-
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsT9PiwYEUh
Mina: “Well, looka here, a target.”
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVv8GJCzuI9
Jiro looked up to see Mina on a nearby ceiling, giving the girl a sly smile.
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡATuYobOHy0
Jiro: “Is there any way I can convince you to let me go?”
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjKmGh3pU4Y
Mina: “No can do civilian; I need to finish this up and catch back up to Ida.”
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnZJyoW8leR
Jiro: “Tch.”
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiT1JPGA57R
Jiro turned tail and ran from the villain. But she knew she couldn’t outrun Mina for long. She needed a plan.
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7AwHEGJfE6
Jiro: ‘No rule saying we can’t defend ourselves.’
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT73ntpE3jT
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.
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTaTpoMn1RA
Mina: “End of the line, hehehe.”
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTN7uF6fNYp
Jiro turns back to see Mina coming closer to her while holding the capture tape.
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ68NQEltbCS
Jiro: “What do you plan to do to me, you dastardly villain?”
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG8IpxoC2dL
Mina: “Come on, you can put a bit more energy into it.”
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGOKKD8NyTB
Jiro: “Sorry, I’ll be louder next time.”
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvybDEmWUDA
At that moment, Jiro plugged her ear jacks into the sound amplifiers in her boots. Next, Jiro unleashed a powerful sound wave at Mina.
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjPGXCft0D2
Mina: “Aaaah!”
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN5dgpl6P3j
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.
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQzgBaT8s96
Mina: “Ugh, what just happened?”
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4c6piTo3xA
Jiro: “A civilian just captured you.”
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0hnvsB17V6
Mina: “But… that’s not fair! You can do that?”
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7cA0VM5lhO
Jiro: “No one said we can’t. Later.”
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv3tfLQ5e9U
Jiro ran out of the alley quickly, knowing a hero or villain would be drawn to the sound.
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUSj8aHrvwW
Mina: “Darn it!”451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjsaFs0AlNY
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrEXL7FWY9L
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡybZ00rcEcg
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.
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw720jYjKYC
Because together, they would be far better heroes.
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZESKgVdW8W
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.’
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH0TPuFhuZh
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.
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBZXPSojje6
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.
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ28Rk3Zq7m0
Civilians can be a wild card for both the heroes and villains.
451Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡINb0M8C1pM
All Might: “In other words, expect the unexpected!”
