Ida knew he should have stuck with Mina. After hearing Jiro’s quirk, he finally realized the secret advantage the heroes had.
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMW5FFtdXwy
A bit late considering he was busy dodging a living shadow.
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUSl7511MVy
Tokoyami: “Dark Shadow!”
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRyZQJnJx16
Tokoyami’s dark shadow strikes at the approaching Ida who’s forced to dodge again. But this time, he got used to the timing and pattern.
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuV5BM4oVeh
Ida: “I have seen through you! The heroes won’t save you now!”
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQZzpxuYwln
Baiting the shadow to overstretch itself, Ida dodged left and burst forward. Unable to retrieve dark shadow in time, Tokoyami was forced to block the overhead kick.
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQO3kodAVm5
But the force was too much; the blow sent the dark hero to his knees.
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡemVpWE9f77
Dark Shadow: “Partner!”
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPaPB2F7vEB
The living shadow attempted to attack Ida from behind, but it was too late. Ida sped behind Tokoyami and captured him with his tape.
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4DDNU8PNkL
Unlike the heroes, the villain's tape was red. This will show that the civilian was lost to the villains and couldn’t be saved.
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa9174emqvb
Tokoyami: “How shameful.”
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjZugnNmGY3
Ida: “You fought well, but you were no match for us villains. Hahaha!”
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXqoDHXrcQf
Tokoyami: “You’re really committed to your role. I can respect that at least.”
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk7f3IlNVqa
Ida: “Thank you. Now, that sound will surely draw heroes. Perfect.”
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ952D2eat28
Ida sped away to the next battlefield, leaving Tokoyami and Dark Shadow behind.
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡobDZ4xsW4B
Dark Shadow: “So what? We’re supposed to just stay here?”
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEflqFvvQqM
Tokoyami: “It would appear so. But… ”
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj1QvcrfJFp
The young hero looked into the distance and the explosions therein.
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxVQ8qAKK8u
Tokoyami: “I have a feeling this exercise won’t last much longer.”
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9L9wz3pFFH
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8tVO9n2fkT
Momo: “Jiro… ”
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1WkTLFBgDq
After saving Tsuyu, Momo went right back into the thick of it. Not long after, she heard Jiro’s quirk going off. Sure, that means civilians could fight back.
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWpB97gwJCr
But only until a hero comes. A hero is supposed to protect civilians, not fight with them. So it’s an advantage, but not a full one. As soon as she enters the fray, her main goal will be to save Jiro, not fight the villains together.
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN5AYM8a7lo
With that in mind, Momo is racing to where she last heard the loud boom.
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB1Vy072AfL
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH9Ag9sswCh
Jiro hasn’t been that lucky so far, and of course that wouldn’t change now.
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT6ZsGh4DIB
She has been trying to stay hidden after taking care of Mina, but for whatever reason…
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZGaJDHDMRR
Bakugo: “Get back here, Deku!”
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqnLPJrxFMR
Jiro: “Why me?!”
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyg2x2O4RZ5
Bakugo and Izuku’s battle was following her around. She’s been dodging rubble for a solid minute now as those two maniacs battle it out among the rooftops.
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ45LguZBfcl
Rubble was ripped up, only for it to be destroyed by large explosions. It’s a warzone!
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyoV0FUIc8u
And it’s only getting worse.
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6tocqOIJ0A
Izuku: “Careful, Kacchan! We’re causing too much damage!”
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhsp8FMel98
Bakugo: “Shut up!”
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLmqc8kgwEW
After a particularly large explosion, the ground beneath Jiro’s feet was covered by shadow.
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzT1lP1ljtQ
She looked up to see a large piece of earth heading straight for her.
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7xP5Dd7YLF
She… didn’t have time to dodge this. She-
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWK02V9oX8b
Denki: “Watch out!”
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfIe7PBcNhP
Suddenly, she felt someone kicking her out the way and then a blinding flash of yellow.
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBmalhFZzz0
When the world regained color and the smoke cleared, she saw the outcome. The large piece of rumble was charred and blown into pieces.
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZpQKZ95zFA
In the center of that rubble was Denki, in his stupid state after releasing enough force to destroy the rumble.
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDl9dX0jst6
Denki: “Aeheahe.”
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqnOtYuPos8
He put two thumbs up, which caused Jiro to smile. She rushed over to him and helped him to his feet.
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm8crexrays
Jiro: “Hahah, okay, let’s get out of here. Thank you, Denki.”
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAn44uvUfv7
The two, as best as Jiro could manage, quickly got out of the area.
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy0AJMNslUA
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYZJjmiUL0T
He saw it.
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5k8bP2rjES
While floating above the battlefield, Izuku saw it and still couldn’t believe it. If Denki wasn’t there…
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqFWf98p7zz
Bakugo: “Don’t look away, Deku!”
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmTpoHVSEbs
Izuku barely had enough time to block another explosive hit from Bakugo. He was sent crashing into a building. He lays on top of rough rubble. It stabbed into his back, but he didn’t care.
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi8wmtKaDs9
This battle has gone on for far too long. The grudge match is starting to drag in people who have nothing to do with it.
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm63yk7hJVq
This needs to end. Now.
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE4R1UViPyr
Shadows cover his face as he stands back up, determined to bring this saga of his life to a close.
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJxzRZFj4No
Bakugo bursts through an opening in the ceiling but doesn’t attack yet. He senses it, Deku is different. He lands a few feet away; that’s when Izuku begins to speak.
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2GquNSgUZh
Izuku: “I admire you, you know.”
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ07pqnZUq6p
Bakugo: “Huh?”
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK3r8BfnY5p
Izuku: “Even after getting my quirk, when it comes to battle sense and destructive power, I’m still behind.”
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjoSkSWi2nj
Izuku: “But… what does it matter? We almost hurt Jiro; we were so caught up in our own problems that we almost got her killed!”
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYIrj88gHqN
Izuku: “This isn’t right! Aren’t we supposed to be heroes, Kacchan?! We shouldn’t be allowing our personal feelings endanger others!”
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5zpdIAeJzS
Bakugo grits his teeth before responding.
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9zUZGnIwyY
Bakugo: “Don’t give me that.”
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSlVQwDcdVw
Izuku: “Kacchan… ”
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQgCVdMKj6S
Bakugo: “Battle sense? Destructive power? Still behind me?! With a quirk like yours, you have the NERVE to say that! Stop looking down at me, Deku!”
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiK9UqSOpch
Bakugo: “How dare a pebble like you… how dare someone like you look down at me! Even when we were kids, you did that! And now that I know you hid your quirk all this time, a quirk like that… ”
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIuIKDdoe70
He glares at the little flares of green fire erasing all the efforts he made in this battle. The sight enrages him to unreasonable levels.
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYorOgOm3j1
Izuku: “I’m not looking down at you idiot! It’s not my fault my quirk came late!”
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpnifqnOPGd
Bakugo: “Lair!”
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVoqhyb6t2U
Bakugo looked like he was going to continue the fight, but instead, his anger cooled.
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj07Tz5wH2m
No, instead of explosive, it became refined into a cold expression.
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWNRKc1FGdy
Seeing this, Izuku knew this was the end. Tears welled up in his eyes.
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTJxWg2LUTq
Because despite everything, he admired Kacchan’s willpower, skill, and intense drive to win. He was his symbol of victory, one that often popped up when he was training, pushing him ever higher.
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfEUfXhAvE1
He was the inspiration for his ultimate move.
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4dqzuRtxC8
Bakugo: “Knock that sad expression off your fucking face, Deku. I want to see the real you.”
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ZkwmBdjtA
Izuku understood when Bakugo lifted his arm and placed his finger on the trigger of his gauntlets.
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ8btH4xnh9
He wiped his tears and placed his fingers together. Between his hands, green psychic energy started to crackle and bubble to life.
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy6Lo8afb5I
Uncharacteristically, Bakugo waited for the attack to charge. When it did, it was like a miniature green sun.
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZs08YcxOAR
They locked eyes; it was time.
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4FkFcSVpbj
Bakugo pulled the pin.
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlZ9nqGZ2ar
Izuku pointed the attack at Kacchan and let it go as he whispered its name.
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFhbP7RpQzX
Izuku: “Psi Explosion.”
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0r3oiNQYmh
The next moment, the world went white.
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn5zBIWtnwz
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPRii7j8uXj
Kirishima is in pain and confused.
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡllyI9E72fu
He should have been knocked out long ago, but for somehow, he’s still fighting.
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQAL4aEOp1e
Kiri was too good of a fighter; he learned that the hard way. Every attack was countered and every counter evaded.
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡje8SWPiAIL
Was she playing with him?
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡihSmD0uzhY
He switches it up a bit and goes for the legs. Kiri jumps over the sweep and counters with a kick to the head. More used to the tempo of the battle, Kirishima blocked but was still pushed back.
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuunDSlLLTp
Kiri: “Better.”
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5IRXWkmhKJ
Kirishima: “Ha.”
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR4E8xfBXcY
No, as crazy as it may seem, Kiri was actually teaching him!
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc9GM7KBSC6
Every time he was close to passing out or giving in, she walked away. But not fast enough to escape him if he had the will to keep going.
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUFffYarmKM
And when the battle resumed, her attacks weren’t as brutal and speed not as impossible to react to. As proven by the first blow in this fight, she could end it whenever she wanted to.
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFaXkFsOT64
Kirishima: ‘Well, I won’t complain.’
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSxcpHh6Qjw
Not only does this prevent Kiri from joining any other battle, but it sharpens Kirishima’s skills. Like a sword or a polished shield, every bout pushes his harden quirk further and martial ability higher.
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ZzdXGcye9
She taught him early on that brute force won’t always win the day. Skill is required.
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvHYkQqsKtN
So Kirishima smiled and got back into a fighting position. Kiri did the same, arms relaxed and ready for action.
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUj6DmDdPEf
Didn’t take long for them to explode back into action. A flurry of blows echoed across the street. A dance of experienced fists was on full display.
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi3Gn0a66yI
Close calls were aplenty in this clash, Kiri’s blows grazing Kirishima’s skin quite often. But he can take it and used the latest one to attempt a powerful body blow.
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMiyVCH134L
Kiri caught it, but her eyes widened a bit; it took both hands to do it. With that momentary lapse, Kirishima headbutted the girl.
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE323D8IPRo
Instead of being thrown off guard, she used the force to blackflip. The result was her feet meeting the chin of Kirishima. It was powerful enough to lift him.
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPdy36IvdBA
Recovering first, Kiri dashed back into his personal space, ready to deliver a crushing blow to his abdomen.
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgZjgrfShI9
Kirishima, despite the hit, was prepared. It was something he came up with during the battle, a way to harden select areas just when an attack came. It would sacrifice defenses elsewhere, but it would be worth it when he counters.
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAZjnNRMYaI
But the blow never came; instead the two heard an explosion. One far bigger than any other.
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ILWC946C2
Kiri: “Onii… ”
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDtLmDqVn0D
Kirishima: “Wha-”
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzRIeYdy1z8
By the time Kirishima’s feet were on the ground, Kiri was gone.
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSabuljRVDE
Kirishima: “Onii? But wasn’t she-”
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsAHErHjBjP
Before he could come to any conclusion, the adrenaline finally wore off and he collapsed.
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ0rQxAnAY5
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaz1c6E9rex
All Might: “Seriously…”
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgXPZjvjh5K
This really was a crazy class. He was pleasantly surprised by Kiri’s choice to train young Kirishima. Her presence will truly benefit everyone.
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoFzZd8p5bE
But that’s not what’s on his mind right now. It was the potential lives of young Midoriya and young Bakugo.
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoRmwmavbk9
All Might: “Time out!”
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡud3xACK2rY
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl4EeIOLuD0
Everything hurt.
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM7GQnZGiFw
From sore muscles to the bloody torn skin. Even his ears rang like a bomb went off.
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡceVV2HVLci
Makes sense; it was to be expected after what happened. Bakugo opened his eyes and surveyed his surroundings.
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoRYw5HN7wM
He was in rubble, again. This time though, he was practically embedded into a wall.
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7AIz4OWn4i
The building in front of him, the one he and Deku were in, was leveled.
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWTbC9bSbTi
He ripped himself from the wall and grabbed his shoulder. It might actually be dislocated. But that won’t stop him.
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcd8IW1I4lh
Bakugo: “If he’s still kicking, I am too.”
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpfksyoHTw9
He fought against the aches and pains. Nothing will stop him from dragging himself to where Deku may have landed.
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmBnKEDCkgN
Through the charred rubble and green rocks with lightning occasionally shooting out of them, he arrived at his destination.
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUWaNjdRSr6
Deku wasn’t in a much better situation. In fact, he looked much worse. His was bleeding, his armor was cracked, and he was still unconscious. Sure, some flames were already repairing the damage, but he was out like a light.
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpXN32NxPZW
Bakugo: “I… won?”
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaS4rS48RJN
Bakugo: ‘Wait, of course I won! Deku is nothing! He’s nothing but my stepping stone!’
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEFTkYMqLIm
Then why didn’t this feel satisfying? Seeing him like this, beaten and broken, wasn’t too different from when he bullied him.
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcrKNmOyntl
So why did this feel different?
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡswFIzQJqcn
Before he could think on it, he was knocked unconscious.
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5m9nY1Pab8
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBd8dJXl09b
It felt good to finally punch the bastard who had tormented her beloved so long. She will never understand why Onii-chan admires him so.
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9jjDceS1N9
Regardless, he went too far. Izuku may be alive, but he is hurt and unconscious. She will have to explain this to her onee-chans and convince the eldest to let Bakugo live.
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUzhKmD1l9l
But she was tempted to let her do it.
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFBEGEvu9Pv
Kiri: ‘I could just smash his head in. No, no, no, onii-chan wouldn’t like that.’
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaGZijbCOSY
Kiri: ‘But he hurt him!’
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOtgDzIl9lI
The urge to do something rash increases as she goes to stroke her beloved’s head.
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2zDXkrPOGj
All Might: “It’s alright now, young Tae, we will take care of him.”
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh9j9rqbWts
She looked behind her to see All Might and a few mini conveyor-bots. Two were already taking Bakugo away.
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPbi4B0aiUJ
Kiri: “I… stay.”
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRyvhNeRt7Q
All Might: “Very well, I don’t think I can convince you otherwise.”
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgzsqneKHJP
Kiri: “You can’t.”
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdMXEJ6ex3b
So she watches the bots put her onii-chan on the stretcher and leaves the battlefield with them.
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1pJFWCwQcv
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOaOBAbeZDi
All Might connects to the city speakers to explain the situation.
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqw313jEy3D
All Might: “Due to the actions of certain students, I had to pause the exercise. But this doesn’t mean it’s canceled! It wouldn’t be fair to the rest of you to do that.”
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBKcQW9NUML
All Might: “You all have a one-minute break before the exercise continues. In the meanwhile, I’ll list off the current scoreboard.”
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs1fxSu7wTZ
Heroes:
Civilians Saved: 1
Villains Defeated: 1
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUlGVHjfieP
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡda5pTcLSKc
All Might: “Considering young Ahsido was captured by a civilian, the heroes don’t get that point.”
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3YdwtXrjis
All Might: “Also, young Tae went with young Midoriya to the nurse’s office, so the Heroes won’t have to worry about her. But that doesn’t change your precious situation.”
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFBndxmgAnZ
Villain:
Civilians Captured: 1
Heroes Defeated: 4
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP0Ibqz39ap
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzvMDeqCIE0
When she heard the score, her heart nearly stopped.
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8qYQfxWxKU
Momo: “How?”
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMOSDjvNHH9
Kirishima she expected, and based on the explosion, Izuku was out too. But Sero and Uraraka too?
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmhfHma4H8c
Momo: “Who… was defending the bomb?”
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7DqDy3NpCb
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9J4EhzbFt8
It was good plan.
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOkkaCpYTeo
Have Izuku bait Bakugo and see where he came from to locate the bomb. Then send two heroes to stealthily get the bomb while everyone was distracted by the titanic clash.
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlSTxwm92zg
What Momo didn’t predict was who was guarding it. She thought it would be Ida or Mina. Even Kiri might have been passable due to Uraraka.
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZVJ20SEzVn
If all else fails, she still has Izuku to rely on when he beats Bakugo.
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8q4AbZr9ek
But that part of the plan fell through. And even if it didn’t, it wouldn’t matter.
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3FblifRdvW
Shouto watched the robots carry out the unconscious and soaking Sero and Uraraka. They fought well, but he was not their opponent. No one here is.
75Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXwdmSLsZ8X
Shouto goes back to the bomb and sits down, waiting patiently for Momo to be defeated or to make it here to him.
