Here they stand, on the rooftop across from one another. Izuku and Kaoru were in their hero costumes, ready for the battle at hand. But unlike Izuku’s armor, Kaoru’s costume looks like the school uniform if it were stylish and had a medium-sized cape.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNaEFK5zNIZ
Fubuki: “Please don’t damage the roof. That’s not an expense I want to pay right now.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0tPT4U4Qrw
Izuku glances up at his sisters, who are observing in the sky.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGJLydC1y0W
Tatsumaki: “A nice additional challenge.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmV5wL2z7CP
Izuku: ‘Right, because we won’t be able to throw rubble at each other. Have to be creative.’
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtpnFCfacf2
Kaoru: “No problem. So, are you ready?”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCiTvri8PDh
Izuku: “Yes.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnV980z2o8n
Tatsumaki: “Tournament rules. If you are knocked off the roof, you lose.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXiRT5FeMzM
Fubuki: “Start.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS8ZSiNfSrV
Immediately, Izuku felt a pulse in his mind. A gentle knock showing him that Fubuki will be bugging him throughout this whole fight.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgTGwgC3TbV
Thanks to that, he only barely prevented himself from being blown off the roof by a psychic push.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt2WxOUerpW
Fubuki: “While I occasionally poke your mind, try to do the same with Kaoru. This will help with your focus and your ability to mentally affect others during a fight without… you know.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE5HlJknabd
Izuku: “R-Right!”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT5YfGIxj7m
Izuku: ‘Easier said than done, though.’
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7MYntk38Bo
Due to the circumstances, Izuku had little choice but to play defensively. Kaoru was throwing air bullets and trying her best to literally trip Izuku up.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡca6TKPxEgN
But he dodged the bullets and righted himself before he face-planted. All the while, he kept eye contact with Kaoru, who was smiling at her apparent domination of the fight. That’s until-
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡknyp8zhPIU
Izuku: “Behind you.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQfccCyZNwv
Hearing Izuku’s voice in her head, Kaoru stopped her assault for a moment, enough for the emerald esper to-
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoJqPPpAxL8
Pulse.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQINM8zQKP8
Teleport to the wrong location, above Kaoru.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwrtPMxyH4W
Kaoru: “What the-”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLc5NlzO5fR
Izuku collapses on her, causing them to both fall to the ground in a… somewhat scandalous position.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyNV7wvwMw2
Kaoru: “W-What are you… g-get off!”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFVM98Hfjby
Izuku: “S-Sor-”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXfabLef1xx
Unable to finish, he was blasted into the air and again-
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPNWH29FyoP
Pulse.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi67fq3BWxa
His mind is assaulted with a familiar knock. Focus broken, he was unable to stop Kaoru from binding his body with a telekinetic hold.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeHerOvefgQ
Sensing an immediate ring out, Izuku tried to gather enough to break the binding. But he couldn’t focus because of the pulse.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBnK9Em9PLg
No… it was strangely weak before that. Deep down, he knows why but refuses to acknowledge the cause. So instead, he shifts tactics.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEJdwImGh3w
He waits for Kaoru to fling him towards a ring out, that one moment when her psychic hold disappears, letting gravity do the rest.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1MePIi5C6e
When the moment came, he forced himself to teleport back to the starting position. But when he reemerged, he felt nauseous.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJp9Kj5iTQ7
Holding his mouth, he pushed the sensation down-
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTivBC4D4V1
Pulse.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡynPafvQJUA
Izuku: “Ugh.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTD6hMGBIXw
He placed a weak psychic barrier up to protect himself from Kaoru’s telekinetic push. But the effort was enough to force him to one knee. Seeing his weakened state, Kaoru only pushed harder while walking towards him.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH0FxvmOK4Y
Karou: “Wow, this is easier than I thought. What’s wrong? Do you think you can beat me without trying or something? Or is the handicap that bad?”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdjZC4CCunW
Fubuki: “Maybe she’s right, I’ll sto-”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUmqMDpyVXU
Izuku: “No!”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNZMFbf7AUR
His sister’s eyes widen as her brother’s voice come through a bit distorted.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBhga3pHybo
Izuku: “Don’t hold back, I can keep going. I will overcome this.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpqPTz6GZZu
The middle child takes a look at Tatsumaki before making a decision. Her face was blank but focused on the match. She couldn’t help but wonder how Tatsumaki would feel if Izuku lost.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGGnpuR2zhP
Fubuki: ‘Would she be disappointed with him too?’
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8RfTjAh6V6
Not wanting to test that out, she decided to lie. This will be the last one.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpqEjrGEAyh
Fubuki: “… Very well.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡllLOgbRpJC
Pulse.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR43uRhnLZy
And the shield buckles further.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHG3T5jjKTH
Izuku: “T-Thank you.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2MprHjM9Tf
His mind is a mess, confused and unfocused, making the use of his quirk overwhelmingly difficult.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL7zE9ZAkIW
But that doesn’t mean he can’t use it. He just has to be a bit reckless. He breathes in and reverses his psychic shield’s properties.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEVgw6MV68r
Screw finesse, that takes too much focus. So even if it causes veins to pop on his head and blood to flow out his nose, he will go full force. Just in the opposite direction.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3VE5JzGSuh
Instead of repelling, the shield draws everything in. Combined with Kaoru’s pushing, it produced enough force to pull the girl towards Izuku.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHxFgjo5RBP
Drawn in by her and Izuku’s psychic power, Kaoru was yanked forward with a bewildered face. Right into Izuku’s waiting arms.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlwKPLTKmdV
Within range, Izuku bear-hugged her. It doesn’t take much thought to squeeze with his enhanced strength.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrSQYQFdUC5
Kaoru: “Gugh!”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7W3nZHLtL2
Izuku: “Give… up!”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5xyxvx2vsq
Oh, she wants to. The combined pressure of the psychic compression and super bear hug would break the spine of a normal human. But this is Kaoru, the one who will someday surpass Tatsumaki. This is only the first step!
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXs6Ufz7wr2
So she uses all her strength to push outward, against the crushing force. Her body lights up pinkish red, and Izuku is forced to close his eyes, but he doesn’t let go.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeXddHETNWt
Instead, his focus is improving over time without being assaulted by the pulses. But his psychic strength is still not on Kaoru’s level right now; his grip is slowly being loosened.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnyWXeEP7P5
And if she gets loose or another pulse comes in, Izuku fears that he’ll lose.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWPqxKYOGNG
But he has to win to prove to himself that he can succeed without relying on that part of himself. But despite that desire, he is forced to use a tactic dangerously close to The First.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3TdotgLGjn
He slams his head into Kaoru and sacrifices some of the psychic power behind the crushing force. All to use a mental attack, a command.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2jd9Me6jUm
Izuku: “Sleep!”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7RBpwPh9ia
A second later, Kaoru’s eyes roll back as she falls unconscious. But her psychic power doesn’t just disappear, no, it explodes outwards as the crushing force was now weak enough to overpower.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgeenp62MVg
Kaoru falls to the ground, while Izuku is pushed off the roof. Exhausted, the boy was unable to properly fly up or teleport back to safety.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKoCDCYDp8i
Before he can panic, green energy caught him and gently brought him back to the roof.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4gi3F1bjm7
Tatsumaki and Fubuki descend to the ground, worry etched on their faces. Fubuki gets out some tissues and wipes the blood off of Izuku.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYLeyTqZgFl
Tatsumaki: “Are you alright?”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIhYmLlkBcF
Izuku: “I-I’m fine. You don’t have to worry.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCNzni0SofV
The eldest looks at her brother and then at the sleeping Kaoru.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaNXh6eOaQR
Tatsumaki: “You were knocked off the roof, but you knocked Kaoru out before that. I guess we can count it as a tie.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZEnXDYsM54
Fubuki: “And that’s fine.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW55iHvxm0q
The eldest couldn’t help but glance at Izuku and narrow her eyes ever so slightly.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlGjc4uvhZc
Tatsumaki: “… I suppose.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu3I0lgKiLA
Again, she looks back toward Kaoru and replays the fight in her mind. Then she recounts all the battles Izuku has had up until this point and the abilities he has learned. Sighing, she goes to her sitting brother and kneels before him.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdrzwknrFcS
She looks deep into his eyes, trying to figure out the puzzle behind them.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpxLSJANMed
Izuku: “T-Tatsu?”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj50rw5HZWm
Fubuki: “What is it? Is something wrong with Izu?”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ92D5GHJXwq
Tatsumaki: “That’s what I want to know.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTl2FH9I1mP
Izuku: “W-What are you t-talking about?”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiEFMJI6aBh
Tatsumaki: “I know Fubuki was messing with your head, but… I know you’re stronger than this. You weren’t holding back, right?”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF6mdz9LNfX
Izuku: “N-No, of course not!”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN50JR9ahyq
Tatsumaki: “Then what’s wrong?
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpd959IZ8ej
Before Izuku could even think of revealing everything, Fubuki got up and glared at her big sister.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjnpyBJ7EN9
Fubuki: “There’s nothing wrong with Izu. He was distracted with my mental probing, nothing more.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUAmHZoW8tL
Tatsumaki: “And? I know he can handle that. Besides, he didn’t use his psi sword or transmutation. He shouldn’t have struggled this much.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpcsz7IEgp1
Fubuki: “That’s unreasonable; you expect too much.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTgrY1SjML0
Tatsumaki: “And you expect too little.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBDOEhPVg7T
A slip of mixed frustration escapes from the building chamber within the younger.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTlFVmOXdUK
Fubuki: “Stop trying to push your high expectations on Izu!”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl0ESsKl41Q
Matching the energy given, Tatsumaki gets up and floats above Fubuki.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOBKLroADQ2
Tatsumaki: “My expectations are not high! You’re the one who doesn’t seem to have faith in our brother! He has to become stronger!”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXjPOY4jpaP
As things took an unexpected and heated turn, Izuku went from confused to worried and finally landed on upset.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJIqtzxxrZu
Izuku: “Enough!”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLgVPybJ3D7
The sisters stop, and their glares soften for a moment before turning to their precious little brother.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9SmQXojsXY
Izuku: “Please, don’t argue over me. Fubuki is right. I-I was just distracted by the mental pulses. Nothing to worry about; I am going to get stronger. Trust me. Now, apologize.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz7yFVXTNNG
The two sisters turn to each other, an apology on their lips. But whether due to pride or insecurity, they are unable to say it.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9sH6wUvp22
Tatsumaki & Fubuki: “Hmph!”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfE7tIoMsCB
Izuku: ‘I’ve never seen them argue like this. And of course, it’s because of me… ’
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqUaOus55Qt
Again, he thinks about telling them everything he told Kiri. She accepted him; they will too, surely. The question is timing.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE4CZ5X0pR3
As the trio cools down, they hear some shuffling behind them.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1cudwRC6hJ
Kaoru: “Ugh, what happened? Did I lose?”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9DTJZ4NoIC
Tatsumaki: “Tie.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVdciI15i8H
Fubuki: “You knocked Izuku off the roof while he knocked you out.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡruSgKZI9j0
Kaoru: “But how? The last thing I remember was the bear hug, and then… I felt sleepy.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXiJDW6qtym
Izuku: “I-I-I’m sorry! I didn’t want to lose, so I tried something invasive a-and… mentally told your body it was time to sleep.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCFJEjOG9Bg
Fubuki: ‘A mental command? Something else to try.’
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNzH4SjvVZL
Kaoru: “Whoa, that’s kind of… scary.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjQe0y7tSel
Tatsumaki: “Relax, Izu would never abuse it. Besides, you have a psychic quirk; you should be able to build defenses against it over time.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0LHxpsjL7Z
Kaoru: “Great! When do we start?”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIfnYXYi8T1
Fubuki: “Later, that’s enough psychic training for one day.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡykW4C6V2a0
Tatsumaki: “Of course you’d say that.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ4Br3CPfdX
Fubuki ignored that whispered comment and walked towards the exit.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ2KXjhDsjh
Fubuki: “Right now, we should go inside and see if Emory is awake too. I don’t want to neglect her.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡITpcGzuD2q
Kaoru and Tatsumaki follow Fubuki while Izuku pulls himself up.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtmlCt2CB61
Izuku: “Fubuki, I have a favor to ask.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeT1lApxR7x
The middle child turns back, letting Tatsu and Kaoru enter the building first.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ47easjlt14
Fubuki: “Yes?”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj1ckEGcZdv
Izuku: “I-I might be wrong, but don’t internships allow for students to spend the night at the agency? I would like to do that so I can start training as soon as possible.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0bBrLOiXmW
Fubuki: “… Alright, just don’t work yourself too hard. You’re still young, Izu; don’t beat yourself up if you don’t meet expectations right away.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtEFp6EHGqC
Izuku: “I won’t, but the villains-”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQAXwu1aGrD
Fubuki: “Me and Tatsu will deal with them. You don’t have to worry about them. Okay?”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBo4vzhBRjP
Izuku: “… I understand.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq5Ik5yKojW
Fubuki: “Good, now call Mom and tell her you’re staying over.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhwmDfrXqCm
After nodding, the boy takes out his phone and calls Inko. She quickly picks it up.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw5CMvu4X1u
Inko: “Hello, Izu! How are you and Fubuki?”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpEVPe0pUFX
Fubuki: “Tell her I said hi.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfRfEjJRgeT
Izuku: “We’re fine, and Fubuki says hi.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrWxTeZxN8o
Inko: “Aww, tell her I said hi too. So, why are you calling?”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA5C7upqbdV
Izuku: “I’m planning on staying the night with Fubuki’s agency. I wanted to let you know.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFphuZK7wDb
Inko: “Oh, that? Toshi told me that was a possibility. Have fun!”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLDB13JZhdY
A blink.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOBHMuRgXu2
Another blink?
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1a93EtysE1
Inko: “Izuku?”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfe1H6lveBy
Izuku: “T-Toshi?”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ0vxJn1DAm
Inko: “O-Oh, d-did I say that?”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwYL9SiRWln
Izuku: “Yes.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO3T1x1fcrr
Inko: “W-Well, I-I guess I forgot to tell you that Toshinori and I h-have been meeting up. F-For progress reports! On you. That is.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN9Ek4DoBzg
…
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Sma8qXJOy
Inko: “H-Honey?”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡakkEyi0qpP
Izuku: “Speak to you soon.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPM6UnIVZtQ
Fubuki could tell something was wrong when Izuku hung up so coldly.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSudZkrm1pP
Fubuki: “Izu, what’s wrong?”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjKkvjTxntM
He looks to his sister with steel in his eyes.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7SUyivt2Kg
Izuku: “Assemble the family.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYDBCNNCDe6
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf754SRCB36
Kiri’s face turns cold as she gets up from her position. Compromised, she didn’t see a point in hiding and transformed into her Valkyrie persona.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡglwqTEEMYw
Edgeshot: “Nice to meet you again.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzN4jccaASy
Valkyrie: “Now what? Will you try to take me in for being a hero?”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXb6oFsKgyp
Edgeshot: “You are a vigilante.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUMiFL5wGRd
Valkyrie: “I help people.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ756FgSMFt
Edgeshot: “Scared them more like. What you did to those quirk beasts-”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvoD66iNJ3s
Valkyrie: “Was angry, and I wouldn’t do that to humans.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0z9LYJaqrD
Edgeshot: “… Based on your past work, I believe that. If it weren’t for Nezu, I would attempt to bring you in.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJQZyIKq96h
Valkyrie: “You won’t… fight me?”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMm0Yd0Ga5v
Her guard lowers ever so slightly; it would be enough for Edgeshot to quickly subdue her. In her Valkyrie form, she’s likely stronger and has a greater reach, but that’s something the pro hero can overcome if needed.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1uTLFWX1eP
Good thing it’s not.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGYMFFdHZbr
Edgeshot: “No. I was one of the few who noticed the camera footage and would have tried to take you in. It did seem like you infiltrated U.A, but the principal explained things.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGUMtSqc0Xt
Valkyrie: “Then why bring it up?”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyWbqGKUbVT
Edgeshot: “To warn you to be more careful. Not everyone will know the principal or be as understanding as me. But more than that… ”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfGPhVYOUbd
Kiri could hear it: changes in the environment.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVSDZsymi8m
Valkyrie: ‘Traps? All over?’
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbNV2eRLgdo
Edgeshot: “I understand what you are, but it is hard to believe. On the off chance you managed to trick everyone, I’ll make sure to keep a close eye on you.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBn3SrPNLea
Valkyrie: “… Nh. Can I go now?”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVnd0b5zY9U
Edgeshot: “Yes.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnH2H6XqlW2
Transforming back to her normal form, Kiri walks past Edgeshot and enters the elevator. When she pressed the button for the bottom floor, she released the breath she was holding.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH2ka2qXSdE
Kiri: “Dangerous. As expected.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzieUV1Cd1W
Besides her sisters, Edgeshot was one of the heroes she tried to avoid when she was just Valkyrie. It seems like that was the right choice.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE4AW1RbA23
As Kiri regained her footing, her phone rang. After a moment trying to remember how those things work, she answered with a smile. Izuku was calling after all.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeHwiIBps73
Kiri: “Yes, Izu.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrJdRpxJK77
After a moment, she nodded her head. This is some serious business, but despite that, she smiled. For now, she could be with her family for a while.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOMTAw0gHlo
Kiri: “Okay, I’m coming.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3LXEWyEJE2
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZdOZ6SVrF0
An Hour Later
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw8IveFcs8V
Toshinori was just leaving the grocery store and walking out to his car. Once he entered the car, he drove off into the street. He stopped at a red light that illuminated the inside of his car. He looked up into the rearview mirror…
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmXCcen4Jur
… and saw the Midoriya children in the backseat.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwe4s4hCVy9
Izuku: “Good evening, All Might.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzA3KXOo3uF
All Might: “AAAAAHHH!”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeNUma0787a
The hero panicked and swerved off the road into a nearby lot. He stomped on the brakes and sat there trying to catch his breath.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHJrH6zaELn
Fubuki: “Or should we say-”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxJDhrWJqyl
Tatsumaki: “Toshi.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡITkIMFStA6
Kiri: “Bad man.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLR3vSdScYz
All Might: “… I can explain.”
