Shimmering into existence, a strange yellow creature appears in front of Bakugo.
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLpTTN20SY0
Present Mic: “And there it is! The secret technique Kanto has been teasing this whole festival! But wait a minute! Isn’t this supposed to be a 1v1? How is that fair!?”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡckiLqFeIcu
Sabrina: “Don’t worry. I won’t fight as long as Kadabra, a mental projection I created, is on the field. And half the damage done to it goes to me. And vice versa.”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyd01iDLWE4
She says while sitting down in a meditative position. It only takes a moment before Midnight agrees to the strategy.
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVZFwqfQFC6
Midnight: “I allow it! If Kadabra or Sabrina is knocked out, Bakugo wins!”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOejnGiAfU5
Jiro: “Why do I think she only agreed because she likes Kanto?”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiHt3pI87Yd
Uraraka: “That’s not fair. Bakugo was so close.”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4WHrt0oOVG
Tokoyami: “Concealing your advantages is another part of battle. She was wise to keep it hidden until now.”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ftMjvMeIw
Uraraka: “I know… but still.”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡigS5vU7iiD
She looks at Bakugo, who breathes out hot air before nodding his head. He won’t complain; that doesn’t solve anything.
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6HcdTeIbzy
So he surges forward, not at the creature, but at Sabrina. Midnight did say Kadabra or Sabrina.
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUtzbdsQLKC
However-
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6XC64mAVzN
Sabrina: “Teleport. Reflect.”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7FqiQQmR1E
Before Bakugo can reach her, Kadabra teleports in front of him and tanks the blast meant for Sabrina.
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡecvHlAdlMV
Bakugo: “Tch.”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN5q6qiTZGM
The boy backs off as the smoke clears, revealing a floating Kadabra surrounded by a rainbow shell.
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHoHJlNBpMw
Sabrina: “Kinesis.”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq62kmrDXwo
Kadabra locks eyes with Bakugo, and suddenly his vision gets darker. He can barely see; it’s like he’s nearsighted!
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcBhSFgPDEI
Bakugo: “W-What did you do?!”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4YT2JjhR4W
Sabrina: “Psybeam.”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7n9STnEMSW
Rainbow energy gathers in Kadabra’s eyes before shooting towards Bakugo. He is able to dodge, but only barely.
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx7PIJWmy88
Forgoing Sabrina and focusing on the creature, he charges forward and unleashes a barrage of mini-bombs. But they are noticeably weaker than before.
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoZChkrE1Rm
What’s worse, the shield was tanking everything.
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqAgF9BTyih
Sabrina: “And the finale, Disable.”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdDh8jPQJqm
Kadabra’s eyes once more shine; this time it’s a bright light that cuts through the smoke and hits Bakugo in the eyes.
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbpWMwtbrHN
At that moment, his body was locked up. He growled, demanding his body to move, but it wouldn’t.
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4OtOxfSLQq
Sabrina: “It lasts only 10 seconds. But that’s more than enough.”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGDXa12CDft
Kadabra lifts his hands, and Bakugo is lifted while constrained by a blue aura.
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfLTqLaU7OV
Bakugo: ‘No… No! Not like this!’
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvJWqYLrmuy
Through sheer fucking will, Bakugo squeezed the last of his strength to explode himself straight toward Sabrina. This completely took her off guard, and so she was rammed by the Bakugo missile.
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFecqRZqJCU
Sabrina: “Kadabra!”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdFXNjVpa0D
But before Sabrina could fall onto the grass behind her, Kadabra flung Bakugo away. A second later, they both landed on the grass.
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLWvYOZNgjh
Midnight: “Double ring out! It’s a tie!”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOt7SdIGWgA
Present Mic: “Well, would you look at that! Our first tie right before the final battle! Since both students seem like they have fight left in them, we’ll have to think of a tie-breaker! Sick around, folks, the finale is almost here!”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbGwz0OPAFs
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlwOjqsgQBI
Despite that, however, Bakugo had other plans.
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNkd1NTyYMT
Bakugo: “I refuse.”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgnjUnGNMB2
Midnight: “Say what?”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdPgphSs9hF
Bakugo was in the nurse's office, getting his arms healed after straining them beyond the limit.
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHTEvBHf2BU
Bakugo: “A draw means nothing. It’s worth nothing. That’s not a victory, and I refuse to go along with any sort of bullshit ideas you guys have for a tiebreaker. I lost, so just give Kanto second place. I don’t care. I’ll just win for real next time.”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvGPnN0XMsO
Midnight and Present Mic look at each other before sighing.
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡttsFaVfEIN
Midnight: “Fine. If that’s what you want.”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbgrgkdg1hA
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUkLE3yZ6NZ
Present Mic: “Well, due to Bakugo thinking a draw is as good as a loss, that means the finale is on!! Kanto or Tae, class 1-B or class 1-A, which one will go home with the gold!!?”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYi9EgIP148
Uraraka: “What!?”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyMptwl9VWo
Jiro: “Didn’t see that coming.”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlbqRF9Dbcr
Uraraka: “After all that about being number one, and he just-”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsgbki1NliQ
Izuku: “I get it.”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFD6fc8N9tY
The class looks up to see Izuku coming down from the steps.
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjL9aw5H5rz
Momo: “Midoriya, where were you!?”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0yCw7YjPgw
Izuku: “I… just needed some time to think. That’s not important right now. I’m just as surprised as you, Uraraka, but I do understand.”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU3sXGfFcLb
Uraraka: “Then why?”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSvvnEtqdmH
Izuku: “Because Kacchan wants a complete victory, one that can’t be questioned. A draw can be questioned. Any tie-breaker game won’t help either. It’s not a real fight, and so not a victory, even if he did win.”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6JsTsRZujU
Uraraka: “But he could have won the tie-breaker and then beat Tae, becoming number one!”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxT8VBv5r63
Izuku: “… That’s not the number one he wants to be.”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4hk00jFplg
Kirishima: “Hmmmm, it might have been best to stop anyway. He really pushed himself past the limit. Kanto is pretty banged up, but she still has that mental projection thing.”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpGQxU8YFbj
Denki: “Sounds like you’re saying Bakugo couldn’t win regardless.”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2EcIEmKXys
Kirishima: “I’m not saying that! Just that it would be harder, is all.”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgni62re6JN
Sero: “You guys obsess over being number one too much. What’s wrong with 3rd place?”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2wCkn4XmSw
Uraraka: “Nothing, but-”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYXjAyUHWFI
Izuku: “Sero’s right. Chasing the best can backfire. Giving your all is enough.”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9HsjYJyxvo
He thinks back to Endeavor, clear evidence that proves his claim.
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBkkDPvptxD
Uraraka: “Then what about Tae? You threw the match.”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3QZF42E6Nr
Kirishima: “Yeah, what was with that?”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQEUdJXLPUw
Izuku: “It’s not like that! I was just surprised by… Kiri’s crying.”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuKCE5pKYEm
Kirishima: “Wait, what!?”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAtSqfsdBoc
Mina: “Whoa.”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7hZuQ8sXiP
Momo: “Is she alright?”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn0YLtEJg2V
Izuku: “Well… you don’t have to worry about it. I’ll handle it.”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwQXg2TEqnX
Kirishima: “Hard not to worry when she’s fighting next.”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQtApKLvL80
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡInp4xqDhl2
At last, the finale. The contestants were given five minutes to prepare while the stage was repaired. The day was dragging; it was time to end this.
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXBvOx85vOC
Present Mic went through his usual spiel and the match began. But Kiri didn’t move.
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡznbiOSfvwC
She didn’t care anymore. The sounds of confusion didn’t help calm her mind. Right now, she was just waiting for Kanto to ring her out. To be done with this.
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrZDq7UsCCC
But that changed when Kano opened her mouth to speak.
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGmdNhfvPn5
Sabrina: “I know what you are.”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnpLqowJF1j
Kiri: “… What?”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaBahwsM3zY
Sabrina: “You shouldn’t be in this tournament. A mental projection, no matter how real it may seem, is not a real person. That’s as if Tokoyami wanted his Dark Shadow to compete.”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZEQDl7aCxg
Kiri: “… You’re right.”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPWsmItqNH2
Sabrina: “Then why are you still here?”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqvumMTb4za
Kiri: “… Because… ”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡefv1xkaaGa
Kiri: ‘If he doesn’t need me… why am I fighting?’
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp4XrTNumK6
Sabrina: “Is it because he can’t let go?”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbkUngLD9pX
Her head shoots up, and she looks at Sabrina.
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn96RsqkquA
Kiri: “What do you mean?”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlInsN33Yqo
Sabrina: “A similar thing happened to me before I met my friends. I split off a part of myself, creating a mental projection born from my repressed desire for friendship. One that contrasted with my strong desire to improve my quirk. Is that what happened to Midoriya?”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgMtWfVZFch
Kiri thinks back to her creation, the night of her birth. The driving force behind it.
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjsfKbsWhm2
Kiri: ‘Am I-’
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIqLhaGJgIZ
Sabrina: “It’s not good for him.”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKCH8KKCO4c
Kiri: “It’s… not?”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbsZE5iXLLQ
Sabrina: “No. He is not whole, incomplete. He is unable to use the power that you have, the power that sustains you. But worse than that, he will not be able to grow as a person.”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaJJhQpmVlL
Kiri: “But I… still want to be with him. I… love him.”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBg3UGkQMRC
Sabrina: “Of course you do; you were designed to. I’m sorry.”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGwpdjpcpeB
That was it, the final nail. Now you’re telling her, that her love is not even real?
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡclczZqxZyl
She collapses to her knees.
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLp9rWGICi7
Izuku: “Kiri?”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡweuHVxlOIM
Present Mic: “What’s this!? Is Kiri Tae giving up?! What’s happening down there!?”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYNaT0yYDiu
The esper approaches the mental construct and can’t help but feel pity.
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSjEBEDqgoU
Sabrina: “I will help him, as Kaoru helped me. Whatever love you two may share, it will only end in tragedy. You will hurt each other in the end. This is the best thing you can do for him.”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf7cBb8gUfl
Kiri: ‘To disappear… perhaps that’s the only thing I can do for Izu now. He… doesn’t need me anymore.’
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNpoM8kKjBP
Sabrina goes to grab Kiri’s head; a psychic attack there should knock her out. Then she can help return her to Midoriya in private.
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFQpr8zVV9B
Tatsumaki: “Kiri!”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv2XBuzdv8c
Kiri tenses as she hears her sister’s voice. The sudden movement from her stilled Sabrina’s hand.
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0snSvcTQ6p
Tatsumaki: “What are you doing?! After coming so far, how can you give up!? I know you’re better than that. Snap out of it!”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN6z2hHZBGQ
With her voice, Kiri remembers a fact she was too narrow-minded to see. There were others who she loved, who loved her.
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQtw9U4JpdV
Fubuki: “I don’t know what’s going on, Kiri, but… even I’m worried. Mom is worried; we’re all worried. Don’t give up, not like this.”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw8T8cl01Hv
People who would be sad to see her disappear. Family.
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLNUvGLQ851
Kirishima: “Don’t give up, Tae!”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEiX3OmHeMj
And even friends.
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbmNZ8LmzFj
Izuku: “Fight!”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo66iSnBf7E
Izuku: “I still want to do this together, Kiri! I want to be heroes with you! So don’t give up, not on me or yourself! Because heroes never give up!”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Fj18Lyyl5
She even has an ideal to strive towards.
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡveLa3Ur75I
She stands, knees not fully steady, but stronger than a moment before. Kiri now stands on a foundation all her own.
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQL1aKGwnDY
Kiri: “Maybe you’re right. It might be better for Izu… if I disappear. But my love is real. I love my family and my friends. I can’t disappear. I don’t want to make them sad. I want to live.”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiPZjehHWqD
The esper’s eyes widen at the declaration.
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtF6INo3PGx
Sabrina: ‘She has family and friends? How?’
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2GVptMb1vY
Was she wrong? Was Kiri different to from what she imagined? Her other half was nothing like this. The person she was couldn’t have made real friends on her own, and the love was twisted. The inner conflict made physical nearly broke her family apart.
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtvTFXxOkAN
Sabrina: ‘But this… is different. There is no conflict. The love she has… at least for her family… it doesn’t seemdesigned.’
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEOhou1JmsZ
Sabrina: “Hmmm, very well. Then prove it.”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJw4clqgGUM
Sabrina creates her psi-whips, and Kiri gets into her fighting stance.
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwL2Ke8pSg9
Present Mic: “Finally! It seems like they’re ready to start! Buckle up your seat belts, folks!”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdzSRMpijrr
Kiri dashes forward, ready to dodge the whips. But those were just feints.
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWX1tBECpHC
Sabrina: “Lock.”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6WdOD0wnfA
Kiri freezes in her tracks, and in the next moment, a psychic force pushes her back.
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡALzWC8yoeF
Present Mic: “Is it about to end already!?”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXZTkOpB8bQ
Kirishima: “Tae!”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhjfe4ETBy0
Straining her tactile telekinesis, Kiri breaks the lock and kicks the air below her. Far in the sky, Kiri counters by unleashing several air cannons at Sabrina.
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSCTQbAQWkF
The esper swipes them away with her whips, but some weren’t aimed at her. Some cannons damaged the stage, creating usable rubble for later.
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgpxFO0Tdx6
But before that, Kiri kicks off the air and rockets towards Sabrina. Quickly, she transforms her whips into a shield that blocks Kiri’s blow.
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ME3Tg2wOI
With Kiri touching her psi-shield, Sabrina was able to electrify her. Kiri cried in pain, but she didn’t stop. She forced her hands into the shield, and with a grunt of effort, tore it apart.
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr9rXlQqiCU
Stumbling from the energy dispersal, Sabrina was open for an overhead blow.
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOPkE4QYKqc
Sabrina: “Lock!”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrXzKGmgk1A
But this time, it only stopped Kiri long enough for Sabrina to jump away. Kiri didn’t let this chance pass; she increased the strength of her blow and caused further damage to the stage.
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmcuIu6lLEy
Sabrina: “Kadabra!”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2t5nO3DqB9
The mental projection appeared once again, ready to face this new opponent.
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJEVVHBzSQF
Midnight: “Sabrina! The same rules apply!”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNaZFvNAW5i
Sabrina: “I know.”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfR4ho6PeD4
Sabrina: ‘It will be mental projection versus mental projection.’
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSPqUz68B3Z
Kiri charges the new opponent.
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS7f20RmjGF
Sabrina: “Reflect.”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV6pVeacymT
This time, Sabrina made sure to stand while Kadabra fought. But that didn’t help her resist the wind pressure generated when Kiri struck Kadabra.
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe1Wc0emmPr
Doing a front flip, Kiri delivered a devastating aerial axe kick that managed to push Kadabra back. But Kiri kept the kick going and struck the stage, damaging it even further.
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsvLh4YYePK
Sabrina: “Kinesis.”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiMmqEZVxSI
But it had no effect. Even depressed, Kiri paid attention. Her eyes were closed, and so those attacks won’t work.
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIpC4s4XH4F
Sabrina: “That’s not so much better. You can’t fight with your eyes closed.”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNnAkSLk0Tx
Which seemed to be the case as Kiri struck the ground beside Kadabra.
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqVH8s0mdFH
Sabrina: “Dragon Shock Wave.”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Xx9Ef7Uos
Kadabra points its silver spoon at Kiri and unleashes a yellow lightning bolt shaped like a dragon. Kiri is struck by the attack and hisses in pain. But she soldiers on and attacks the ground where Kadabra was.
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkw6HZrsz6F
Yes, it was. For Kadabra was already dodging by the time Kiri was moving.
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ79Z5GcEeee
Sabrina: “Press the attack.”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX6pr6e81Gl
And so on it went, Kiri attacking blindly while being struck by several bolts of electricity. Her passive barrier was slowly being worn down. Her attacks are doing less and less damage to the stage.
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZmOAGwIc4p
She was even missing worse over time, hitting places where Kadabra wasn’t close to.
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFBMnLzcior
Neito: “Hahaha! Class 1-A’s final hope for victory is fighting blind!”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWXsZYEt8z3
Kaoru: “You got this, Sabrina! Bring home the gold!”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx5P4AyEWbt
Uraraka: “Uh, no.”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl1HCZpyZMF
Kirishima: “Open your eyes, Tae!”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGWhxHAFTrX
Izuku: “No, I think she’s onto something.”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBYJlJOYLWK
His class turns to Izuku in surprise, but he says nothing. They’ll have to just wait and see. But he’s not the only one who notices something. Shiho also notices the increasingly damaged stage.
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEQXuIuHqus
And it was mostly on the side where Sabrina was. The stage was barely hanging around.
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy9Pt4nzpIM
It was time.
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuytcJVAPYO
When the dragon came this time, Kiri dodged it cleanly.
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyo9yRDZNUN
Sabrina: “What?”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBdOzui4Nd1
Then Kiri turned to Sabrina, eyes still closed, and balled her fist. Her body flexes, focusing her tactile telekinesis around it.
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3f7xrAWUZX
Suddenly, air was rapidly being sucked into her fist. But not just that, all the rubble and loose earth were being sucked in too, drawn in by the wind.
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmxoVnjZVKK
Sabrina: “Kadabra! Thunder Dragon Wave!”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY8Gd4mbnEY
It raises its spoon to the sky and three lightning dragons explode into existence. With a tilt of the spoon, the dragons slam into Kiri.
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsLW9X1nIar
It’s painful, more pain than she ever experienced.
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfYG8P1jIB2
But she doesn’t give up!
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgyp8mwhSe9
Despite her body breaking down, twitching occasionally from the lightning, Kiri presses on.
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUrtosFYKJO
Kiri: ‘Because a hero, the one I want to be, doesn’t give up. Never, not when her family is expecting her to win.’
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQnvh3tCitx
So Kiri goes plus ultra!
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMbqQO0A3SU
She puts even more power into her fist, enough to draw even the lightning assaulting her.
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbXwDmKIPcB
Sabrina’s attack was no more, swallowed up by Kiri’s fist.
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡldSMIhm4Te
Sabrina: “Impossible.”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwzEWDySR65
Suddenly, the air stills. It was time; she gathered all she needed. Kiri calls out her ultimate move, one she made inspired by her sister and by her brother’s number one hero.
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ59A6JGirw3
Kiri: “Thunder Style-”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Wy0mbnbn1
Her body tenses once more.
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡftfCncbPxX
Sabrina: “Kadabra! Teleport! Guard!”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpcdU41acFP
Kiri: “Cyclone-”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlf5SClt4UL
Kadabra appears in front of Sabrina with its arms up, ready to tank the attack.
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjRcbQ25BVY
Kiri: “SMAAAAAASHHHH!!!”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuyKjI6z115
She unleashes the gathered storm, aimed slightly at the ground, and the results are explosive.
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrdqN3tlGQA
A tornado comparable to the other two great bombs of the tournament batters everything in front of Kiri. The surge of thunder, earth, and wind slams through Kadabra and engulfs Sabrina.
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYwSX0Fqeu5
Thankfully, Midnight got out of the way, and Cementoss protected the audience with concrete walls.
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsgAqXg6BEZ
A few seconds later, the storm passed and the walls were lowered.
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ENczpRYGR
Present Mic: “Another bomb!? Kids these days, am I right!? But did it do the job, or will this be another upset!?”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡejxcaIqY0D
Depends on who you ask. Because the results became clear when the smoke did the same.
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgljHjXcHQa
Kiri was on the ground, breathing heavily, clearly past her limit. Kadabra was heavily damaged but still able to move. But Sabrina-
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9oSCFYIhtp
Sabrina: “Hm, well done.”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIGMEKFwZ6P
Thanks to Kiri’s strategy and the fact Sabrina couldn’t defend herself well with Kadabra on the field, the stage beneath her feet was destroyed. The girl was on her knees, damaged and out of the ring.
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡirZmGGc2NI
Midnight: “As per the rules established, Sabrina is out of bounds!”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs8dIyCKqhD
Present Mic: “And now the tournament comes to an end! The winner of this year’s Class 1 Sports Festival is Class A’s Kiri Tae!”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnY1VI6xPHN
The crowd goes nuts over the explosive finish.
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ5YkXMFnaY
Neito: “NOOOOOOO!!”
276Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuKJVLtXWCG
