Things were looking dire. Momo was the last one standing, and she still had so much to do. Save three civilians, beat two villains, and disarm a bomb.
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ns8T1PJbB
Considering the fact she hears no explosions and Kiri went with Midoriya; that leaves only one person capable enough to defend the bomb.
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd9lBJeZAm9
Momo: “Shouto Todoroki… ”
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeAFqG78Cc1
The other person who got in through recommendations, but unlike her, he didn’t reject it.
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMsl4cnUKwV
Considering his quirk, he could have easily gotten in without it.
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4lrUw0Ygv6
He seems like an impossible obstacle.
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNZjGoSoMrs
Momo: ‘What do I do? What do I do? What do I do?’
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrhotsaUt6e
Shoji: “Yaoyorozu.”
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7o6Jl11dnI
Momo: “Huh!!”
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe0rLcmxabx
While Momo was stuck in a panic loop on her bike, Shoji somehow sneaked up on her.
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGU0JvMAYEc
Momo: “I-I’m sorry, civilian. I’ll help you get back to the safe zone; get on.”
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjeTEoHT1DL
Shoji: “Appreciated. But before that, I have some information regarding the other civilians.”
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsGQgw3Qjkr
Momo: “Really?”
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxlUaujWJQe
Shoji, thanks to his quirk’s excellent sensory abilities, gave Momo a good sense of where the last civilians were. But that wasn’t all.
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi3LVcB2TYX
Shoji: “We should hurry; I can hear Ida quickly covering the city. He’ll eventually catch up to the last civilians.”
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj5c2ub95R2
Momo: “R-Right! Thank you.”
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoxW5f2YBii
With that, Shoji got on the bike. It did require Momo to change the bike to accommodate Shoji’s size. But it only required a few moments.
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy6jwfRwROC
Momo: ‘One step at a time. That’s all that matters right now. One step. I can win this.’
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzCBJ0XxJGw
The next second, they were off.
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk9j2wGzO0d
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhqBtfIDIEs
Jiro: “You really need to learn how to shorten this silly spell.”
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡojVi80su0m
Denki: “Sowru.”
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8CBRSN7WMt
If Denki wanted to be a hero, he knew he had to shorten this stupid state or find a new way of using his quirk. Thanks to some training and hours of brain rot, he shortened it down to 30 minutes.
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCAXujolWzp
Still too long to help right now. So Jiro is stuck dragging him through the city, slowly.
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ48mlhI0V0a
Jiro: “At least it’s not raining rubble anymore.”
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHPuVqt3qRQ
She takes a break and leans against a nearby wall. Every few minutes, Jiro would place her ear jacks into the ground to see if anyone was close.
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9C0tyPMIwU
After a few moments, her eyes widen.
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMzqZF8m4ZH
Jiro: “Shoot!”
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp5SvUMfkST
The rapid steps and the sound of engines could only be one person. Thinking fast, Jiro went deeper into the alley and sat Denki down.
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYpLtLXcZkE
Denki: “Hvh?”
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyf2yrmh94I
Jiro: “Don’t make a sound.”
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeScfoiyGzf
Denki: “I cwm teka Iad, lat mv… at hum.”
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjekvecYdKx
Jiro hits Denki over the head with one of her ears.
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDNT0HZno2i
Jiro: “No, you can’t, idiot. Now be good and stay put.”
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIELBsY2gq2
Before Denki could say more, Jiro ran out of the alley and unleashed another sound wave from her boot amplifiers.
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiUvuNOt2zj
Jiro: ‘I hope I’ll run into a hero before Ida gets me.’
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkiXxPz44qu
With that in mind, she ran away from the approaching engines.
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRYYzChjGfi
She did the best she could, but Jiro was still not that athletic when compared to others.
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcP477Y0Hx2
So she turned around to face the music. Coming down the street like a rocket was Ida.
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡECOoI6W7X0
Ida: “Give up now! You can’t beat us villains! Hahaha!”
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEODnyhD5gE
Jiro: “Last time I checked, you’re not faster than sound.”
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgFF3TgTHHL
She unleashed another sound wave that engulfed Ida. But unlike Mina, he has a helmet. Doesn’t completely block out the sound, but he can endure it long enough to catch Jiro.
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDk76DZCcbh
Jiro: “Tch!”
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTiQ6umBn0O
She stops the sound attack and attempts to dodge to the side. But it’s much too late.
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHJuA4lYucN
Ida: “Got you.”
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo12zaU3ipB
But before Ida can grab Jiro, a bright light erupts above their heads. A flash grenade!
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡixltxGZ7bA
Ida: “Ugh!”
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ35udPZ98yK
Thanks to that flash, Jiro was able to narrowly avoid being captured. But still, she’s just as blind.
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6kgaeYjKd5
But thanks to a warm hand, she was brought further into safety.
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSO48hnoRbk
Momo: “Jiro, are you alright?”
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt4wG3F362B
Jiro: “My eyes hurt, but I’m fine. Thanks.”
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrsaiH3K4uk
Momo: “Now take my bike and get to the safety zone. I’ll deal with Ida.”
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjxREGOwZ2Q
Jiro: “A-Are you sure?”
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcoSdqnvIU7
Momo: “Yes, fighting villains is a hero’s job. Now go.”
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlyRPP639bn
Not needing to be told twice, Jiro nods and gets on the bike. Thank God she took basic lessons when she was younger.
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ19i3XexzyP
Jiro: ‘I might as well get Kaminari too.’
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOSVhZjhCK4
Ida lost his balance due to the sudden flash and fell. But he quickly recovered and turned around to see Jiro leaving and Momo with a shield. It was a strange shield, one with several holes.
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEa9yk0nT39
Ida: “Impressive hero, but do you really think you can stop me?”
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg6KHzxykgU
Momo: “Yes.”
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUX0oLW4g1F
Ida: “Haha, then impress me, hero!”
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOUZJpIMGTX
With his impressive speed, Ida nearly teleported in front of Momo. Already, his foot was coming down to crush the shield.
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4vDFgiaHle
But as soon as he touched it, he heard a click.
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoh3EdibNw5
Momo: “Checkmate.”
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpSNMLZ5HBR
A burst of sticky goo exploded out of the shield and covered Ida before quickly hardening.
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK4xo5xG1KY
Ida fell to the ground, stuck and still as a statue.
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnc6dBObvvQ
Ida: “What?!”
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ33E99a7L8R
Momo: “This was the only way I could possibly beat you. If you weren’t eager to fight heroes, you could have sped past me and captured the civilians.”
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtjCo8SY4k5
Momo: “Or you could have attempted a back attack. But I predicted you would attack me head-on. You are pretty straightforward after all.”
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZmnWC7bory
Ida: “Indeed, you bring up excellent points, Yaoyorozu. I will reflect on this defeat!”
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3AKAACeMas
Momo nods before reabsorbing the shield. Still, losing the bike was a big blow to her reserves.
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRLRurQ19bz
Momo: ‘Will I have enough for my biggest challenge?’
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKq7ctNGVvO
After a moment to think of her strategy, she sighed.
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSF6IzxNdTu
Momo: ‘It will have to be.’
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡimxCBYJLiF
It was time for a full frontal assault, plus ultra.
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM68RCIDjgw
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVUK48Nf7VU
It didn’t take long to get Kaminari to the safety zone. Good thing too, Jiro couldn’t refill the gas like Momo could.
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2mgXh97Xxk
So when they finally arrived, it was out of gas. Jiro helped Kaminari off the bike and started walking. But first, she took a glance back at the bike, a question popping into her head.
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmTfEhqV3vp
Jiro: ‘How long do her creations last?’
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNztJOKzWpy
Before the implications of that question reveal themselves, the girl felt a sudden gust of wind.
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHqTlIaU5Fa
All Might: “Congratulations on making it to safety. Come, join the rest of your class in the viewing area.”
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJqqGtBgLfE
Jiro: “Viewing area?”
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfWu3cE3Bw4
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIphqogDgQd
All Might led Jiro, who was still helping Denki, to the viewing area. It was a small dark room with several cameras showing the city.
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYrdfyNLmnQ
Within were the other students minus Kiri, Izuku, Bakugo and Kirishima. Those four were all in the nurse’s office.
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyvP69nQwd1
Mina: “Jiro! You made it. You did great saving Kaminari and standing up to Ida!”
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjGQJrHiHQj
Jiro: “Thanks.”
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnB4m9esbvG
Jiro helps Denki into one of the several seats available.
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaAQtgihzHj
Jiro: “What’s with them?”
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPXMj3cSZmD
She points to Sero and Uraraka who were sulking in the corner.
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡck4WK21zyL
Mina: “Losing to Shouto really got to them.”
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8op9YjEdaC
Sero: “Sorry.”
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjiXVqtun32
Uraraka: “We should’ve done better.”
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5GLq5tM1Q7
Jiro: “You were up against that guy after all.”
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDm9whQH78y
Mina: “Yeah, and now Yaomomo has to face him.”
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzIui62SHf2
Jiro looks at the screen, more specifically Momo. She smiled at the sight.
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡusI3OlSj51
Jiro: “For some reason, I think she’ll be fine.”
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU0e0kQmjas
Mina: “Whoa, she’s going all out.”
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMuhQKCz6jH
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUeLsINXjAL
He could feel it; it was time.
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuqRVYB96JD
He got up and waited for the first move to be made. Didn’t take long.
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxsYucBr0P7
Several military-grade drones appeared outside the windows and started firing something. Shouto quickly sent pillars of ice at them, destroying the distractions. But some did succeed in deploying their payload, smoke bombs.
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhVq6chneSA
Understanding the strategy, he stomped the ground, covering the floor with ice. If that doesn’t get her, he’ll just focus on any sound she’ll make.
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPSye6yM9jU
The smoke, however, is making it hard to focus. Regardless, Shouto isn’t like everyone else. The slight sound of crunching ice signaled Momo’s location.
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY7DkDwZybv
Turning sharply, he unleashed a wave of ice. Whatever was there was frozen solid. But she did get a shot off. Suddenly, Shouto felt a net slam into him.
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7MVzV7wkFz
It was strong enough to knock him off his feet and stick him to a pillar. But he wasn’t the only one stuck.
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjkSQ8VtL49
The smoke cleared to show a skinnier-than-usual Momo. Her left foot, and most of the leg, was frozen and stuck on the ground. The only reason she wasn’t frozen all the way was because she hid behind a pillar just in time.
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD4c9pxbscy
But this won’t stop her; she had a heating device. She’s going to escape and get that bomb. It’s the only way to win. Beating Shouto is not an option.
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ntiyYFWCG
Shouto though won’t let that happen. He quickly regulated his temperature so he could freeze the net without freezing himself.
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmQ7ceopHmw
For a tense few seconds, the two stared at each other. Whoever escapes first wins.
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN6qUPnFVVm
As luck would have it, Momo was first. Now free, she dashed towards the bomb. But Shouto was close behind. He shattered the net and prepared to fire another wave of ice. In his desperation for victory, this one was larger than before.
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTIyVxRyFZf
Momo’s fingers were inches away from the bomb before her world went a solid blue.
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ58LA6marOJ
So close, yet so far.
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzcj5ga1Gx1
Shouto breathed out a chilly sigh. The whole area was a frozen wasteland; even he was cold. He couldn’t imagine how cold his classmate must be, especially in that outfit.
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWkv3hUtTvL
Yet despite those risks, she challenged him. Despite losing to him, he can respect that.
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDhl8ybjOGy
He places his hand on the ice encasing Mom and slowly melts it.
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTmWXCfyWFs
Shouto: “You were impressive. Sorry, it had to end this way.”
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfl9Z3L2ZbD
All Might: “Villain Team Win!”

69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLfHSWEmJsv
Tsuyu: “But Yaoyorozu did very well.”
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7PfnF3VOQ9
Tokoyami: “Agreed, she fought admirably.”
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ53HzKFeMQS
Sero: “Yeah, much better than us.”
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4bMfka0WU7
Uraraka: “Yeah… ”
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUj6Dfwox6W
All Might: “Don’t feel discouraged! You all did magnificently! Use this exercise to better prepare for the trials in the future!”
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Tm8L1UC5M
All Might: “Now I will help unthaw young Yaoyorozu. Afterward we will return to class for final reviews. That is if the other students are awake by then.”
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9FjpyYEFCp
Nodding, the class leaves the viewing area. As for Jiro, she gave one last look at the determined Momo. She may have lost, but her performance during this exercise was amazing.
69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoO5G9gNMjR
Jiro: ‘I need to be better. I can’t fall behind.’
