Present Mic: “ITTTTTT’S TIME, EVERYONE!! This tournament is almost over; we are down to our final four, the semi-finals.”
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG1EczQOQs5
The large screen shows pictures of Izuku, Kiri, Bakugo, and Sabrina.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcTugNJoxdt
Present Mic: “The first match is between some of the most impressive students I’ve ever seen! This one is sure to be explosive! Midoriya vs Tae!!!”
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXkQ90T6eUg
Izuku looks at Kiri, who still seems colder than usual. It frustrates and worries him to no end.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZzY1vB4LRL
Izuku: “Kiri… tell me what’s wrong.”
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFhfvTKfPg0
Kiri: “… Please, don’t hold back.”
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF3yvglGSuo
Izuku: “… Kiri… Okay, then we’ll talk afterwards, okay?”
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3LPF6oLsa8
She doesn’t answer.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOmWnLczDYF
Present Mic: “READY?!”
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQh4xXpwVM7
She only gets into her fighting stance. With little option, Izuku does the same with his psychic power.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ4JUD4ecw4
Present Mic: “START!!”
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjPFlnGBVAa
She doesn’t want him to hold back? Fine, he’ll just throw her off the stage, and they can talk. But he should have known it wouldn’t be that easy.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmGGG9qCrIJ
The force push barely stopped Kiri’s charge. The girl collides with Izuku’s psychic shield with enough force to shake the stage.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOXJldDiBSq
The two stare deep into the other’s eyes, and for the first time, Izuku doesn’t know what he sees. Kiri wastes no more time on the clash and unleashes a kick to the head. Again, Izuku blocks with a shield. But he can feel the shield cracking, as this blow was even stronger than the last.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIC0PLgnNdf
Seeing the weak barrier, Kiri gripped the shield and tore it apart with her own brand of telekinesis. The esper widens his eyes, for right now he is defenseless. A fact Kiri took advantage of by delivering a head-rattling blow to his forehead.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR77pgpRVdH
But thanks to the upgrades Izuku gave himself, it only made him slide a few feet away.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv8e07lGVlu
Kiri: “… Fight. Back.”
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡipuTqCCXCW
Izuku turns towards her, and his eyes flash green. He puts his hands on the ground, transmuting some of the arena into iron before shattering it into several waves of iron. Like this, each pebble was now like a bullet.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7CkxgrfYcQ
The storm of bullets surges together to form four large tendrils with teeth at their tips. Fully formed, they snap towards Kiri. The girl jumps, rolls, and weaves through the hellstorm before again delivering another blow towards Izuku. This one, however, he blocked with a hand covered with black iron.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvI2T2QXUyJ
The boy counters with his own punch, but Kiri catches it with her free hand. No other option, the two headbutt each other.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnpeQC26OSp
Izuku: “What’s wrong with you?! Did I do something to make you mad?”
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4yfcpWyJwJ
Instead of answering, Kiri growls and flips the two of them over. Upside down, Kiri kicks Izuku away and into the bullet storm she knew he was preparing behind her back.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbd1s0fqCbO
Izuku: “Ugh.”
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwDA0mixVEI
She wasn’t done; she punched the air to create wind cannons aimed at Izuku. Before they reach him, he teleports over Kiri and grabs her head.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡky9XiYZWia
Teleporting over the grass, Izuku attempts to drop the girl. But his hand is stuck.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNSo8lTqITD
Izuku: “What the-”
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz3qJMDGQqE
Using tactile telekinesis to stick to things is not too hard to figure out. Especially not now when Kiri wants Izuku to go all out. So to that end, she grabs the arm holding her hand and tries to throw him onto the grass. But he teleports them both back onto the stage before he hits the ground.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkiwEpQZgLk
Kiri unsticks from Izuku and jumps away, just in time for those iron snakes to attack again. She dodges and punches several of them away, but they keep coming.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa9cDP1QLmE
Izuku gets up and directs the tendrils to encircle the girl. Quickly, he realizes they don’t have enough power to actually damage Kiri or ring her out.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPnWeyITYuC
Switching tactics, Izuku focuses on the composition of iron and focuses. Veins appear on his head as he tries transmutation from a distance. After half a minute, the bullet storm transforms.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWJoU0W4fru
All that rubble turns into gallons of water that float above Kiri as multiple rings. Controlling the water, he causes the torrent to come crashing down. Kiri lifts her hands up and focuses her tactile telekinesis on the coming wave.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtKulcxrlgU
When the water engulfs her in a sphere, Izuku breathes a sigh of relief. He can just carry the sphere out of the ring and-
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6FxBUOWln3
The sphere collapses, his distracted control overwritten. He had no time to be shocked as Kiri charged once again. No choice now, Izuku had to face her in hand-to-hand.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFhCVBXUewq
Kiri starts with a quick flurry of blows that Izuku could barely react to. But thankfully, his improved and empowered body was able to weather most of it.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgXDq7jn9Be
But as proven by the frequent bursts of flame, Kiri is doing some damage. On the other hand, Izuku couldn’t really outfight Kiri.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTXC1o4vEZ9
Present Mic: “What a match! A tense back and forth that could have ended if either of them made a mistake. But now it seems like Midoriya is on the back foot! Can he escape Tae’s onslaught!?”
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzreSO5I6ex
Mina: “Man, Tae is scary strong.”
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbNxOrjNeEs
Kirishima: “Tell me about it. Where did she learn how to fight like that?”
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkUwO2yZ1Ue
Jiro: “Do you think she’s going to win?”
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc5Lma0lxP3
The class was silent. They know how strong Izuku can be; it seems weird to count him out yet.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnc2p7mxqlZ
As for Bakugo, he is quietly fuming.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWOnQgAuVOV
If things go as planned, he’ll face Deku in the finals. As it should be. But that won’t happen if he loses here.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb0IANOhLtZ
Bakugo: ‘What are you doing, dumbass!?’
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC5ALAkoNmu
But unbeknownst to everyone, Kiri’s blows were getting weaker and her attacks were becoming sloppy. The reason is twofold.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuOl1NT9Id6
In exchange for taking increasingly damaging blows, Izuku is slowly dismantling Kiri’s passive telekinetic field. Similar to what Tatsumaki did, but not instantly like she can.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvgQsLV8hcZ
Each time she hits him and each time he lucks into a hit, the field is weakening.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ZXU7WDVL4
Usually, Kiri may have caught on onto this. But that leads into the other reason…
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5mS57dsjna
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqhZS27BjwT
She shouldn’t be winning.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡftLgwisuXu
Kiri, more than anyone, knows how powerful her brother can be. Right now, for whatever reason, Izuku seems only half as strong. Like he is not using a part of himself.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVOzt8GxmGV
Kiri: ‘Why? Am I not good enough?!’
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJPcKCEVPev
She throws a sloppy right, which Izuku manages to block.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRNNCvgh7OC
Kiri: ‘Do you not trust me anymore?’
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3PPjnEPWpl
Izuku catches a rash kick and counters with a chest blow, damaging her field further.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnvSKik03FY
Kiri: ‘Would you treat Udders the same?’
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQF59nxepNo
She goes for a left that Izuku dodges.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuRkt406fAT
Kiri: ‘Will you ever… love me? The way I do for you.’
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr5yy8rg79u
Izuku delivers a kick to her stomach, forcing her back.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnAZRZcbEEl
Kiri: ‘Will you… throw me away? Will I be… replaced?’
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡonJlZUVwGO
Her field breaks.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA5cKOthKwz
Present Mic: “And the tides shift once again!”
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSKqlyA4xld
Kirishima: “What’s happening?! She was doing so well before.”
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxtzTwf7bVI
Shield broken, Kiri is easy to deal with. Izuku pushes her back, making her stumble and roll towards the edge of the ring.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ufp07fD03
Close to victory, Izuku controls the remaining water and fires it at Kiri. The girl puts up an instinctive defense, blocking the water with her arms.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrUkbDESUeu
She’s inches from defeat.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnX5p4VKQEf
Izuku flies forward with his fist raised to knock her out of this tournament. Kiri sees it coming in slow motion, her defeat.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJdx32Zs5MX
It’s over.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYJs6TDxwUC
She lost. She couldn’t even handle him when he was holding back.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn2Aq6zEfyw
She lost. She’s weaker.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNE2WnF2dzq
How could someone like her possibly protect him?
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL5iTbAWGuP
How could someone like her understand him?
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ16H6ztr5Wh
How could he… love someone like her?
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHACmgDbQVk
She’s not even real. Just a mental projection.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡduHoSMdK6U
Kiri: ‘… I see. I’m really not good enough. I… was never enough.’
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHZQVAjMpD4
She lifts her head, and Izuku freezes.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡas5n3mniek
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJUKQI7kX5Y
He has never seen Kiri cry. Never.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrIrnH4b7Wc
But that’s what he is seeing right now. An utterly heartbroken Kiri.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCjudYX94SG
There is no force in heaven or earth that could make him attack her now.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzEsrJx4Mx6
Izuku: “K-Kiri?”
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyqKMCHa3tU
Quickly, that sadness is replaced with fury as she grabs Izuku’s outstretched arm and throws him out of the ring. Izuku lies there stunned.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdy3DWOYBT7
Midnight: “Ring out! Kiri Tae advances to the final round.”
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXb82DTK1re
Nearly the whole stadium was bewildered by the outcome. Izuku was going to win, so why did he stop? Did he let her win? Doesn’t sound like him.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNwcLolIxxE
But that didn’t matter to Izuku; he cared about the girl that was walking away from him. He quickly got up and ran after her. He grabbed her hand when they were in the hallway.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡym5FFANdPs
Izuku: “Kiri, wait! Why are you crying? Talk to me.”
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDJb0IlhBxB
Kiri: “Just leave me alone.”
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡueQzJg3DSq
Izuku: “Why? What happened?”
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvxrueMwddD
Kiri: “… You held back.”
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw4xYl85LH8
Izuku: “What? No, I didn’t! I gave my all in that fight!”
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiybZZHZqrX
Kiri: “Don’t lie to me! Never to me!”
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3gZ1RCUXOG
She snatches her hand back and glares at Izuku with tears.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLcP23eXQoJ
Kiri: “I can tell, Izu. It’s like… you’re only using half of your strength. Incomplete.”
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4UMhLPRZgC
The boy thinks back to when he completely rejected that part of his quirk. She can’t be talking about that. There’s no way that side of him would weaken him so.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe6IppfACvX
Izuku: “I… ”
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7gou82Ipzt
Kiri: “I said I could take it. That I’ll never leave you. That we’re in this together. But… it’s not me you want… right?”
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoWKKuwucWD
Izuku: ‘She can’t be talking about who I think she’s talking about.’
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNRk4TZCKnk
Kiri: “Just leave. I want to be alone for a while.”
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqGEylgBwdP
Unable to think of how to stop her, Izuku watches her leave. Now, he’s left with a hole that he doesn’t know how to fill.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsJ2UJK744V
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhvRX1uIECS
Bakugo: ‘That dumbfuck!’
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLJY2rxmZTx
Of all people, he didn’t think Deku would throw a fight. His match was up next, and he had no time to waste on that coward.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ72UEEIlcPW
It will take everything he has to win against Red Eyes. He needs to prepare.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCBJdJSgv6u
But Deku doesn’t leave his mind easily. The memories of their past stick in his mind like a parasite.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjZLbyHbqHS
Specifically, the time when he tried to help him as a child.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9kJp8cONvI
Bakugo: ‘How could someone like that have beaten me!?’
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrD3pyTskp6
The boy did it again, but to someone else this time. Looking down on them by helping them or giving them the win.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyScdkzxH33
Bakugo: ‘That’s not a real victory!’
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmfM2yTq6XT
Fine, if Deku wants to be like that, he can just watch from the sidelines while his rival claims the number one spot.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYNA8Ea9Dip
True heroes never lose, but more importantly, they never give up. Too much rides on them to be any different.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMKypqYTr2i
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg9bJdv7Pwm
Inko: “Izu… Kiri… ”
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC7tkHLN5Xt
The family couldn’t exactly hear what was going on, but they knew something was off. Even Fubuki frowned at the sudden development of the fight.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgd0W8Z2SSt
Fubuki: “Do you think… something happened?”
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡofbwdANFhC
Tatsumaki: “Had to! Izu wouldn’t throw a match, not even for Kiri.”
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq38sNSS9MD
Inko: “What do you think is wrong with them?”
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVHr4Y704or
Tatsumaki: “I don’t know. But I’m going to find out.”
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFLcoqmlkP7
Sensing her brother, Tatsu called out telepathically.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡupq1LaTRXr
Tatsumaki: “Izu, what happened out there? Why did you stop?”
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj4yGNlED0h
Izuku: “… Kiri was crying.”
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa2JIgTOFR8
Tatsumaki: “What!?”
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKejBhdfmdz
Inko and Fubuki nearly jumped out of their skin from Tatsu’s sudden scream.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCVKx2Tsrxg
Tatsumaki: “Why?! Is someone in class bullying her? It’s that Bakugo kid, isn’t it?! Wait right there, I’ll-”
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7X9g3YEd1c
Somehow, Izuku knew exactly what his older sister was saying despite her cutting off the telepathy on accident.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkHHkvxZuIb
Izuku: “No! If he did that, I would deal with it myself! No… it’s something else… it’s just a misunderstanding.”
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSpRBKK4soC
Tatsumaki: “Misunderstanding? Enough for Kiri of all people to cry?”
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡacR63bABoz
Izuku: “… Yes. But it’s okay, I’ll fix it… somehow. Trust me, don’t worry.”
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwm2DRfcXKE
Tatsumaki: “Hmph, it’s part of my job to worry. But I do trust you. As long as you two aren’t in danger. Otherwise-”
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAOcaPgP95b
Izuku: “I know, I’ll tell you about it. Full disclosure.”
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHwdNscqRka
Tatsumaki: “Good. Despite losing, you still did well. Nice job.”
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuIQwkJnfB0
Izuku: “T-Thanks.”
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxHDJWKL4iw
With that, the conversation was over.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIDatkcEYaV
Fubuki: “Well?”
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD6wfN32NYM
Inko: “Are my babies okay?!”
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHdDt67lnwD
Tatsumaki: “Yes, just a small sibling fight. Apparently, Kiri misunderstood something and was crying.”
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ07mVzQGLe5
Inko: “Crying!? Kiri!?”
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡctbb8ntAN2
Fubuki: “Unbelievable. What could do that?”
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkYIxcfHGVy
Tatsumaki: “I don’t know, but I trust that Izu can handle it.”
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNAZ2KIWP5Y
Fubuki: “Really? I expected you to rush right over and fix it yourself.”
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiG2MbwPS6r
Tatsumaki: “Hmph, I know restraint. They can handle things like that.”
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb2ZsT4avIo
Fubuki: ‘I think you just don’t really know how to deal with emotional problems.’
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvbhAML7nsa
Inko: “Thank goodness, when you screamed I thought-”
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT6NJOxviig
Tatsumaki: “Don’t worry, Mom, I would have sensed if there was anything really wrong.”
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL614hXC0yk
Fubuki: “Or my Blizzard Group would have called me.”
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcCLHBqExEu
Tatsumaki: “… Right. That too.”
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsCFaNEAeya
Inko: “Haha, we should get some ice cream to help cheer them up if they’re still fighting. That always helped when I was a kid.”
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2C8sHLbmfS
Tatsumaki: “Excellent idea! And if that doesn’t work, Fubuki can mediate.”
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBDO5j8ZDO5
Fubuki: “Hey, don’t stick me with that. You’re the oldest.”
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVHV1FQS1uU
Tatsumaki: “And as the oldest, I’m delegating.”
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP04PMGoGaC
Fubuki can only sigh at her older sister’s antics. But deep down, she’s smiling. These are the interactions she prefers. Why can’t it always be like this?
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeXj5Z3ac8V
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡodQZLYKePE
The next battle will be fast, one way or the other. Both contestants know this.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw3BTRVLkWG
They walk toward the stage and give each other their meanest glares. Lightning crackles between them as tensions rise.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOmcKxMwNzc
But from an outsider’s perspective, they are more concerned over Bakugo.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIraAYBAMOE
Kirishima: “Whoa, he looks like he just ran a marathon.”
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmsmX7yYHvQ
Uraraka: “He must have done it before the match.”
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuKU5EEBCth
Momo: “Smart, it’s the best way to get the most out of his quirk.”
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMZNgzOCY82
Momo spares a glances at Izuku and Kiri’s empty seats.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKqjt01QYIV
Momo: ‘Where are they?’
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzl5w7DGfYH
The rest of the class has wondered the same thing. And he’s not the only one missing. Ida, too, was gone.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjjGZ0JZUks
Sadly, however, they can’t do much right now. So they focus on the final two matches. The first of which is about to have an explosive start.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq2cNNeiDia
Present Mic: “START!”
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhYMP7Yy6Q5
As Bakugo expected, Sabrina started off with a psychic push. But thanks to his stores of sweat, he exploded through it.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWAqZq4bs7O
The force of the explosion was enough to propel him right in front of Sabrina. As her eyes widen at the sudden burst of speed, Bakugo was already preparing the next stage of the plan.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTHlhCPbugo
It’s going to hurt, though.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWzrKxuiGmQ
BOOM!!
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYp7uwSxdaj
Uraraka: “Ah!”
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqzxJCMCAFW
The same move Bakugo used against Uraraka, but this one was used point-blank. Ignoring the pain in his arm, Bakugo blasts skyward before Sabrina clears the smoke.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1YFh5pXqvh
A few seconds later, Sabrina blasts the smoke away. The blast was powerful enough to shred through her defenses, dealing damage no one else was able to.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSkeD6oKWdV
She scans the area until she sees Bakugo spinning towards her in a torpedo of explosions.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ3IacFaihl
Bakugo: “Howitzer Impact!”
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW0GFVYaYJo
Sabrina: “Loc-”
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSBi1tkwH0v
Too late.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOO4zYCTA1f
An explosion, comparable to the one Izuku and Todoroki made, was unleashed onto Sabrina’s location.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNi1x61DpZX
Present Mic: “Whoa!! The match just started, and already Bakugo is throwing out ultimates!”
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbCI11kHHip
Uraraka: “Wow… ”
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTYnhNruFAK
The girl couldn’t help but be somewhat proud of herself. She made someone like Bakugo take her seriously. Someone can actually challenge these psychic students.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa7DUE1OTqj
As for Bakugo, his arms are killing him. But that had to have done it. There’s no way that-
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5y9rbAbwHs
Sabrina: “I will admit, you are far stronger than I thought. Even Kaoru couldn’t force me to use this.”
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGljGKjTBAw
The smoke is blown away to reveal a severely damaged Sabrina; her outfit was nearly completely blown off. Thankfully, for those back at home, her modesty was retained.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2fDiJrYdOQ
But more shocking than that was her position. She was standing on the only part of the stage, on her side of it, not destroyed. She wasn’t out, but she was close.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmRe4tQurtn
Bakugo: “Whatever, it won’t take much to take you out now.”
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXpUroDPecE
Sabrina: “Perhaps, but there is one more ability I have that can turn the tides.”
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIwhFUQqESc
The air shifts as Sabrina lifts up her hand.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5w1T8YlH2w
Sabrina: “Kadabra, show yourself; I choose you.”
