The battle had begun, and already Momo felt the pressure. It was alleviated somewhat by the special rule given to their group.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBVnjVbSwHr
They didn’t have to capture all four opponents to win; just capturing Aizawa was enough. But that didn’t improve their chances much.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ38gOx8vms1
Similar to Tokoyami’s team, their initial tactic is to sneak toward the gate. But also, like the previous team, one member wasn’t as stealthy as the rest. But he did try.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwempqQ6SUQ
Not like they won’t be caught eventually. To make sure they know when Aizawa is around, Momo and Todoroki kept their quirks active. Momo by continually editing a Matryoshka doll and Todoroki by freezing and unfreezing his arm.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ42TFdSc6Rt
So far, nothing seemed to be amiss. Which made it all the more jarring to pass what seemed to be a face in a wall.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA8LtlqQ0RN
Momo: “What the-”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZwZ0uzFyJK
Mirio: “Heya.”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP1IcZPeKpT
Instantly, the trio turn toward the smiling boy. Kiri was the first to move and destroy the wall. But the man was gone.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpd6WPMk5j2
Kiri: “Where-”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQExuxXFZVX
Mirio: “I suppose I should start with the long-range one, eh!?”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLuCYP3ZYFs
Suddenly, the boy appeared behind Todoroki. Momo and Kiri turn to help their partner, but-
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ33riiCVyHF
Kiri: “My eyes!”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwWiuuhtlgN
Momo: “W-Why are you naked!!?”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1r5hlLjKS1
Todoroki didn’t care and turned fast enough to use a swiping gust of fire. But not only did no fire come out, but his arm went straight through Mirio.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPqQecPDX3c
Instantly, he knew what was going on.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfRPkQqhqN2
Todoroki: “Aizawa, he’s-!”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0LMD4oMDMw
But before he can fully warn his teammates, a titanic blow was emptied into his gut. Even Todoroki nearly lost his lunch from such an attack.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9i2EPTNVMT
Momo: “Todoroki!”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuZguo6q20S
Kiri and Momo attempt to help but-
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhb1LvXy2X0
Aizawa: “Don’t lose focus.”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhVeF9X7gJj
Momo was captured and strung up to the electric wires above. As for Kiri, she was blindsided by Mirio, who seemed to teleport from below, sending her crashing into a nearby building.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOvvh1SceQz
Not even ten minutes have passed, and already all three are nearly defeated. Worse, this was all done by just two of the four opponents.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdVhaqyfV2X
She can’t let it end here. Momo struggles against her bindings, but no extra strength comes to her. And even if she did escape, Aizawa threw down several dozen caltrops below her. Those hitting her back is one thing, her face and eyes though…
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ70cVdIUqkn
Momo: ‘A-Alright. Think! Aizawa wants my quirk neutralized, and Todoroki is still struggling to get up. So Kiri is the only one that can turn the tide right now.’
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUuHlJeMMVP
Momo: “K-Kiri, are you alright?!”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ThMsTzxw7
In response, Kiri punches away the rubble on top of her and narrows her eyes at Mirio.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmGf76Mm42s
Aizawa: “This is a great opportunity for you, Tae. So get yourself roughed up a bit and learn from it! Mirio is, as far as I know, the closest man to becoming the number 1 hero, and that includes the pros.”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmPHt5cHP9h
The three students widen their eyes as they look to Mirio, who managed to recover his pants at least.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiEckv3Ms0C
Mirio: “Come on, you’re making me blush, sensei.”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCL7UFyncFr
Kiri: “Aiming for number 1?”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgGgHYyLEtE
Mirio: “Of course!”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeLiBZQ0tnj
The girl can see it, the similar smiles and the sense of overwhelming power. Not quite on All Might’s level, but Kiri can tell that Mirio is well on his way to reaching that goal. Her onii-chan’s goal…
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeb91ageJNU
Kiri: “Threat.”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdTA7XcClko
Exploding out of the rubble, Kiri attempted to go for game with a headshot. But her fist and body simply passed through his body.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Ju1rSbOEA
Mirio: “Straight to the face, huh?”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQDh7emACl2
The next instant, Mirio and everything around him was consumed by a large glacier.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp92WZPRGFO
Todoroki: “Forget it, our attacks won’t work. We have to run!”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm2p0UxlfNO
Kiri: “Tch.”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXI7tZIF8xk
Mirio: “Good call!”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqQ2XVhME0a
Again, Mirio appeared behind Todoroki, ready to deliver another knockout punch. But this time, Kiri was fast enough to block it… somewhat.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc6KzjYhlpG
They were blasted back by the power of the attack. But this was fine. Kiri could take the hit and roll with the punch. Grabbing Todoroki, Kiri jumped away from the battlefield.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEk0PX8WtLq
Aizawa: “After them, I’ll be there shortly.”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUM5WAZ1tWi
Mirio: “Right!”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt4hD7IPIUb
And just like that, Mirio started running in the direction of the runaways.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvSpe4mevdd
Momo: “If you leave, then I’ll get out of this one way or the other.”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz2BOQbTF87
Aizawa: “Did you forget there are other villains around?”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZVGiCHjy7a
After saying that, Nejire appeared on the scene, floating over the battlefield like an angel.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsFLO6eBkrP
Nejire: “Reporting for duty!”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgtK6m7wOGQ
Aizawa: “Keep an eye on this one. Without her, the other two won’t be too much of a problem.”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZZIh5lEc6N
He says while using some eye drops.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcb0mnLiWN9
Nejire: “Roger!”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl9IjOcHUfj
With that, Aizawa jumped away, building to building, toward the runaways.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlNaXE9SujA
Momo: ‘So that means Amajiki is guarding the gate. If he is anything like Togata… no… I-I can’t lose hope. My friends are still fighting.’
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡilcfxUY81u
The girl looks up at Nejire, who immediately locks eyes with her.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoKWTCvl3Li
Nejire: “I’m glad I get to guard you; now I get to ask all about your quirk!”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZNgdel71lP
Momo: ‘She really is like Izuku. If so, then this could be my chance… ’
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGO4lSm7ECm
Momo: “I would be happy to explain, but can you explain how Togata’s quirk works first?”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyq0zXmj1Of
Nejire: “Of course! His quirk is so cool, and he worked sooooo hard to master it.”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuYJBOsJ9Gx
Momo: ‘That was easy… ’
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBZ6MVIrUKk
Nejire: “His quirk is called Permeation. It allows him to phase through everything, and he can choose which body parts to become phasy.”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCGJ9WmfNKr
Momo: “I see… but that doesn’t explain how he can seemingly teleport.”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGgSFrjNUJq
Nejire: “That’s because when he releases his quirk while underground, he’s shoots up at incredible speeds! By adjusting the direction and angle of his body, he can control where he’s shot out to! Isn’t that amazing?”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvowW0yWwBb
Momo: “I-It is. But I’m sure it has some drawbacks.”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0HRLVpXOP7
The girl with the ever-present smile then frowns.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhAIxT68hzd
Nejire: “Yeah. When I said he phases through everything, I meant it. No air, no sound, and no light. The only thing he can feel when he fully activates his quirk is the sensation of falling.”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCwUm8GfAX9
Momo: “T-That’s-”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2iF8bZMKQZ
Nejire: “Yeah, but that’s why Mirio is amazing! He managed to turn that quirk into something powerful through the power of prediction. He worked really hard!”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOewm9H2KjD
Momo: “H-He really did… ”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpskLrF0pY3
Before Momo could think of the implications of such a quirk, Nejire clapped her hands.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ05z7oYMTnY
Nejire: “Now! It’s time for you to explain your quirk; I have so many questions!”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx3o4F1njlp
Momo sighed and prepared to explain what she could.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7smZAGaBXl
Momo: ‘I hope you two can use this information to your advantage.’
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC9nxWpNcj3
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH8po3oBzNc
Todoroki: “Sounds like a counter to you.”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcuPqnwpJV4
Kiri: “Nh.”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBpE5aLUmTt
They heard the whole thing. Momo had the foresight to give them earpieces so the team can communicate even when separated. It also allows them to hear what’s happening on the other side of the earpiece.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJAiNXBX5bM
Sadly, this only makes their situation even worse.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ78WGYK2ICH
Mirio counters Kiri nearly perfectly, while Aizawa can easily deal with Todoroki.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuMy4iLe4EE
Kiri: “Need Udders.”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0nMf6nC47h
Todoroki: ‘That’s her nickname?’
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzBUEHNb9Oy
Shaking away that thought, Todoroki nods at the idea.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQprsAeVE7q
Todoroki: “That’s the only way we can win.”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS7EgyP9WF8
Kiri: “Nh. But first… ”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA7zJzEos0K
Kiri is still carrying Todoroki, something he doesn’t seem to mind, while running from Aizawa and Mirio.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmaonLE3m9D
Thankfully, they can’t keep up with her. She could even run straight for the gate, but…
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXYswI1yeWK
Kiri: ‘Can’t leave Udders, not heroic.’
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIZbN6gsCdz
So they will have to face them eventually. But how?
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFg5FLuwLEX
Todoroki: “With your quirk, can you control my ice if you’re hit with it? Like with Kanto’s lightning?”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡulUtlZXOzh
Kiri: “If flash frozen, no. But can control it otherwise. Idea?”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdTOcFp8AcE
Todoroki: “I think. We just need to make it so Togata can’t come out of the ground safely.”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡypc5ICg1oP
Kiri: “Nh. If he is out of the way, I can handle Master Ninja.”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXNf1liQOo3
Todoroki: “How? He’ll erase your quirk.”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNSKKWccGo4
Kiri: “… I’ll be fine.”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU0VvXQb2J8
After all, it shouldn’t work on her. It’s like trying to erase Dark Shadow’s ability to stretch. Aizawa would need to use his quirk on Izuku to affect her.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoUfChGtWGQ
With the plan somewhat set and time running out, Kiri turns around.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVOFxXp38uU
Kiri: “Go.”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMt3u0e2rAv
Once the two came close, but not close enough for Aizawa to erase Todoroki’s quirk, the boy unleashed a large glacier to the front.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKCt9lQsSH1
The teacher was forced to stop and cut off part of his capturing weapon that was frozen. But this won’t stop Mirio. Aiming for Todoroki, the boy phased under the glacier and popped up behind him.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0JY7U8XMTx
Mirio: “Nice try but-”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡczFkup9Oy3
This, however, Kiri saw coming and already was throwing a punch at Todoroki’s back, just when Mirio would appear.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFFG9bKU5jq
Mirio: ‘She predicted that I would appear here?!’
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7XMWPBMjIe
Still, this wasn’t a problem. Quickly phasing away, Mirio fell back underground.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxoWhwDcgei
Relying on prediction, there are only two ways for the above situation to play out. One, Kiri knocks Todoroki out, due to Mirio getting out of the way in time. Two, she managed to change direction in time, knocking her off balance.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfoz0ljS9PN
Either way, popping back up a few paces backward should-
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfDhehubd12
Mirio: “Cold!”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkSSk4HfmXd
As soon as Mirio came back up, he was nearly fully submerged in another glacier. Not submerged enough to pop out of the glacier, but enough for his skin to burn.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzYbEc67Kns
As for Kiri and Todoroki, two things happened.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXuHxDnJ1fY
One, the other glacier was melted fast enough to cause steam to flood the area. Two, Kiri was chasing Aizawa while Todoroki was on his way back to Momo.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvpN6WjhpDv
Mirio: “These two are great! I have to catch up!”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGGPxUz8W3F
Phasing underground and popping back to a safer area, Mirio retrieved his pants and followed Kiri.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrf1zgrTOqs
Mirio: “I know Nejire can handle it.”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0KRIslFpWo
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnbTNURwF46
Nejire: “Wow, your quirk is as amazing as I thought and such a strange mutation. Super strength from creation? Quirk sure are strange.”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiNwRPocUdn
Momo: “Yeah… ”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL60SmjWlXK
Momo: ‘Time is running out! I know Kiri could make it to the gate herself if she tried, so the fact we haven’t won means she wants to save me. Sweet, but at this rate we’ll fail.’
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF77I2zT1Bd
Looking down at the caltrops and then at Nejire, the girl calculates her chances.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ11OM9RoGrC
Nejire: “Don’t think about it. I’ve got my eye on you. I’ll destroy any drones you try to make too.”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKRSY6kqOaZ
Momo: “Tch.”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcrZDVWUmtt
There are many ways to get out of this, but none can keep Momo unscathed and fully clothed.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvgeZ6uf8Qg
Momo: ‘I’m turning out to be the most useless one one the team. If only I didn’t get captured so quickly… ’
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3mYKRRz34K
Her salvation came in the form of a torrent of flame, engulfing Nejire. Seeing her chance, Momo flexed OFA, escaping the binding just in time for an ice sheet to catch her fall.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQDajKa40pU
But she knows it won’t be that easy to escape.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQKy0MR4w5G
Creating a shield, she blocks a golden spiral blast and then fires back with a rubber machine gun. Nejire flies away from the bullet storm, not knowing they’re rubber bullets.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs7OKN3PwPo
Nejire: “Whoa! Those aren’t real bullets righ-”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrRdLmV681o
Another glacier explodes into existence, nearly engulfing Nejire and giving Momo and Todoroki a breather. One he needs because the constant glaciers are starting to take their toll.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6RDGRr4zwG
Todoroki: “Yaoyorozu, do you have a-”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbgpZGVwiye
When he turned around to talk, he was met with the sight of Momo opening the front of her costume to produce several items.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJlp7iNW1ee
She isn’t turned in his direction, so he hasn’t seen anything, but he still feels the need to turn around.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKvfpdhatK9
Todoroki: “Plan?”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe2KOTrv6GT
Momo: “Keep them off of me while I make some drones to save-”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv5A2X1qFq2
Kiri: “No!”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKnuNApBwdA
The two of them hear the girl yell from their earpiece.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡST1SM9mD7T
Kiri: “Escape. Master Ninja on the way. Stuck with Naked Man.”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJC36qH7A1B
Momo: ‘These nicknames, I swear…’
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAkNFPNcGc3
As she thinks that, she hears Todoroki fire off another powerful blast of fire that forces Nejire back behind the glacier.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZNqpumfoWo
Momo: “Kiri, you sent Todoroki to save me. I won’t leave you behind either.”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ChjrCeBMC
Kiri: “Not enough time.”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDD2FbUcvLx
Momo: “That’s where your wrong. I have a plan; it’s crazy, but it may work.”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV0JpPFNuSr
Kiri: “… The best kind.”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFZ8eSQiRcn
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ10GsiXtcPA
She says that, but Kiri is unable to get away from Mirio right now. Whatever plan Momo has, she better hurry up.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO4o43f9NLe
Again, Kiri predicts Mirio and tries to counter. But he just phases through everything.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡESdyVDd1SC
Mirio: “Blinding touch: Eye Poke!!”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMV25jxbv1e
Kiri: “Ugh.”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtwGnFC0Q5o
On the flip side, the damage Mirio does to Kiri is negligible. The blow he delivered to her stomach after the blinding barely pushed her back.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt4ZX3xxOKH
Mirio: “Wow! You really are tough for a first year.”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHilWICBK46
Kiri: “Cheap.”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiNQnhS5wGT
She says while rubbing her eyes.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTLZMSSBMT0
Mirio: “Hey, I am trying to play the villain here.”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlTFgA71MO1
Kiri tries to escape once more, but again Mirio predicts her movement and appears in front of her.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBA8fqOsw2W
She blocks the straight punch to the face with a crossguard. In that instant of contact, she tries to stick to Mirio. But he is much too experienced for that, and so phases again, escaping her grasp.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyXZW7KjJVT
Mirio: “It’s been fun, but the test should be over. Aizawa asked me to keep you busy, and I have. Nejire and Aizawa should be able to easily take down your friends. Hahaha!”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1sKnKPsM3z
Kiri: ‘Poor villain laugh.’
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSE8JVNNDDg
But it’s not like he is wrong. The trio is cornered. But…
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZjPBqnQdKw
Kiri: “I trust Momo’s plan.”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9VzHjXgxyC
Mirio: “Right, I heard you talking to her on the earpiece. Excellent idea to have those on hand from the start!”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Cnw7MAtbi
Kiri: “Nh. Good foresight, that’s why-”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW29VUDwXf6
As she says that, several drones appear behind her, emerging from the skyline.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoeaCUmULKq
Kiri: “She’s a good partner.”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXo2oupR8hC
The drones unleash everything they have on the area around Kiri, preventing Mirio from getting close.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡotlWTLr6mb
Mirio: “Nice try. But I can just phase through and just unphase my hand to hit you.”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjQLoFkIgGb
Kiri: “Yes, but I won’t move this time.”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsmX9v9eCSs
She lowers her stance and once again removes the sensation of pain. No matter what, she won’t move from under this rain of bullet fire.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjK1hGwa34z
Mirio: “Heh, nice!”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡstBiIJ2Pub
It was then that one of the drones stopped firing and dropped a bulky package over Kiri’s head.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7VSzb7pQ8x
Seeing this, Kiri jumps up and catches it.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFcrFIZVPe5
Momo: “It’s a jetpack, Kiri. Wear it and get over here!”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGXfh0wHqrJ
Kiri smiles, equips the devices before falling back to the ground, and presses the obvious red button.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡabqAUphwTZ
Kiri: “W-Whoa… ”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJRGICf0AGd
It takes a moment for her to adjust, but she does do so. Seeing the large glacier and explosions in the distance, Kiri knows where to go.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCijLoa0ITC
This doesn’t go unnoticed; Mirio decides to run to where she’s going and join the others. But it will take longer; he can’t fly after all.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUSHBxA4sJB
With him gone, the drones stop firing and follow Kiri to the warzone.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Qf8PWWA7I
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjGJDyFAQiY
This was why Aizawa wanted Momo out of the way first. He can erase her quirk but not what she creates. And she created a lot while he was gone.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp8z8CgwiUu
Various rubber guns, barricades, cannons, flash grenades, bombs, and drones.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTqF1MWQPem
And if he erases her quirk, Todoroki will fortify their position with ice or fire at Nejire.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMXL6jZkcoo
Aizawa: ‘A living armory indeed.’
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAbTgvzJQbG
But this was only delaying the inevitable. Even if Kiri came back, Mirio wouldn’t be far behind, and that would spell the end.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV60mRPJAwT
If not that, then the time limit, which was quickly reaching zero.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIKpiSoZk6C
Aizawa: ‘What will you do now?’
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsHHIl4YYjo
He thinks while avoiding gunfire while destroying drones and edging closer to their position.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1h8slKBo7y
Nejire: “Wow, her quirk is crazy! And fun! I haven’t had to really move like this in a while.”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqnXGhn6yH1
The fun came from having to fly around dodging gunfire while destroying as many drones as possible.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdm3nmPvZ0k
But the drones kept coming. Whenever Aizawa had to rest his eyes or switch her quirk to Todoroki, Momo made up to 3 more drones.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRdbkFKgC33
However, the teacher-student duo was slowly breaking through their defenses. That was until Kiri came in.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtAzQWIaIMB
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ70MPzNab13
It didn’t take long for Kiri to arrive on the scene, but she didn’t know what to do to help.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Zyy81n9FB
Momo: “Kiri, draw Aizawa closer to us. I’ll open a weakness in our defenses, then…”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgHnwLlzMTM
Kiri nodded along with the rest of the plan. They would have to be quick, but it could work.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoYEtr1zvf4
The most interesting part of the plan, though, was this. Touching the straps of her jetpack, she used her quirk to destroy the entire thing and rebuild it into two short jagged metal spears.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnQj7yYg1L4
Kicking off the air under her feet, she hurls the two makeshift weapons at her two targets.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOdskbTBoJV
Making sure to do so at the right time and angle.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm6pgfv33Jd
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNGMiLA01Qg
Aizawa and Nejire sensed it in time, the fast-approaching spear. They dodged out of the way and looked behind them to find the culprit.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyQATxs9rLY
But she was already gone, probably punching the air above her to quickly return to the ground.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV8Sw2g1Dj5
Momo: “Kiri! You threw it too hard!”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡErkxqgFISU
Aizawa turns around to see that the spear had blown a hole right through Momo’s defenses. Heck, even her weapon caches were destroyed.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡujXHbAJTfD
Aizawa: “Huge demerits for lack of teamwork. Hado!”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj0dKdsGRFr
Nejire: “Got it!”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡojYyjzePtf
She flies off to deal with the drones that accompanied Kiri while Aizawa capitalizes on the remaining students, scrambling to fix the damage Kiri caused.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1IpnVPsmNE
Momo: “Tch!”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9qq8qDVtGY
The girl tries to use her quirk to make something else, but it is neutralized before she can. So instead, Todoroki used his quirk to attack Aizawa with a large gout of flame.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQQlUExDd2S
But due to the rapidly approaching teacher, his aim seemed to be off, and he missed.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgOGs17q91n
Aizawa: “Losing your cool?”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTzD0Sly7Zn
Momo: “Run! We need to find cover! He can’t erase what he can’t see!”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5q2eXuMuRm
The two abandoned their position and started running. But Aizawa was much too fast.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ71epqqUNif
He quickly caught up to them around a corner. But this was a part of the plan. The first gun Momo made was designed to shoot out a large amount of what appears to be Aizawa’s capture weapon.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE6vJjbbgDd
She quickly turned around and fired. The cloth surrounded Aizawa in the air.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6qhW9Kg8nO
Aizawa: ‘Trying to trip me up?’
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ4BBPohxRL
Momo: “Now, Todoroki! Shoot heat along the ground!”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡepGErHfYs3
The boy attempted to do so, but Aizawa saw the play and negated his quirk in time.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEtmttVR6Ub
Aizawa: “Nitinol alloy? Should have used a flash grenade first.”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcaJNe2cRNs
Momo: “Didn’t need to.”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOf2JO32mbf
She says while creating a large fire-resistant shield for her and Todoroki.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMxzPFXBqoI
Suddenly, a tornado of flame scorched the ground under Aizawa. But it didn’t come from Todoroki. The teacher turned to see Kiri with a burnt right arm.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKrX7ajGw7i
Kiri: “Not only ninja.”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIoYJdrascB
She managed to sneak past Nejire, making it in time to accomplish the last step of the plan.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8RWv8WyZTJ
Aizawa: “Heh…”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡotQyNLPhYX
Aizawa: ‘So she used the same technique she used against Kanto, absorbing Todoroki’s flame. Even if it meant burning her hand.’
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPlXv73Tvuv
The nitinol alloy snapped back to its original state thanks to the heat, trapping Aizawa, causing him to fall to the ground.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjG6Vkj9hs1
However, the test wasn’t done yet.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCW48k76G5z
Momo: “Quick, we have to handcuff him.”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡitKczkiqXD
She drops the shield and rushes the downed teacher alongside her teammates but-
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfyRRGPmxZA
Nejire: “Sensei!”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIDGA5qAQRu
Mirio: “Surprise!”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeVWhO0X5k9
The drones could only keep Nejire occupied for so long, and Mirio finally arrived. Again, he attempted to go for Kiri while Nejire fired her spiral energy at Momo.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV1FOqlMrBL
Todoroki met the spiral with his own flame, while Kiri was knocked away from Mirio’s back attack that targeted her damaged arm. This left Momo as the only one free.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoCXL6AG26a
Momo: ‘I can do this! One For All, 5%!’
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6iCUKZrBEJ
Her body glows a faint red as she increases in speed, something Mirio didn’t expect. She hadn’t used this the entire exam. So when he shot out of the ground, Momo was a few paces ahead of where he thought.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLXHkf0Twn3
Mirio: “Huh?”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxmSPWVJZ7f
Free to do what she needed, she took the handcuffs and quickly captured Aizawa for good this time.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJnEWqdsQPW
Recovery Girl: “Group 4 has passed!! With only a few seconds to spare too.”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoC3TSoMY6j
They had done it.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUdd68kfTNR
Momo: “YES!”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZFLdiI0UGx
Todoroki took a breath and leaned against the nearby wall.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI663airw17
Mirio: “Well done! The principal wasn’t kidding; you three are probably the strongest group here.”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt9MfUebCiP
Nejire: “Maybe even the next big three!?”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfavTf09C9L
Momo: “I don’t know, if your third member didn’t stay at the gate, we wouldn’t have won.”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2kbvTCxnlp
She says while falling to the ground from mental and physical exhaustion.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT171jXgAKQ
Nejire: “Yeah, shame Tamaki couldn’t show off. But I guess he would have been overkill. His quirk is even stronger than ours.”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxdDOM0OPlw
Momo: “R-Really? Then I’m glad I gave up on going to the gate.”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKaD5uI7Xwv
Kiri: “Nh.”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQN0dGHNjCl
Momo turns to Kiri, who is holding her burnt arm and shaking off the rubble.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlxwnOjySYa
Momo: “Are you alright?”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYEoB6eB7di
Kiri: “Will heal.”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgQ06rZ2FLn
Aizawa: “You should still go to Recovery Girl.”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTl9SG67xCG
Kiri: “Alright.”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ17VJMp78rA
Mirio: “Now that the test is over, there is one thing I’m confused about, sensei.”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡryWBlOhtNL
Aizawa: “What is it?”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyxDtBhPpNr
Mirio: “Why did you run from Tae? Couldn’t you have erased her quirk and defeated her like usual?”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjynzNe7Ug1
Kiri and Momo tensed from that line of questioning. Worse still, Todoroki was looking over in curiosity as well.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdDPL55vB9g
Nejire: “Yeah, that was strange. It’s not like you.”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGJlpEWc4Nx
Aizawa looks over to Kiri and sighs. He knows her secret and actually had to deal with Valkyrie a few times in the past. With that in mind, he knew fighting her head-to-head wasn’t an option.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMBySBFJV79
Part of the reason why he requested the Big Three. The other being Momo’s growth and Todoroki’s potential. Together they are a formidable force, as proven by the exam. Even if they didn’t pass, the fact Momo and Todoroki could hold Aizawa and Nejire off that long was impressive.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbC16jLrInR
So with that in mind, there’s no way he’ll expose her.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtpf2DdPSkE
Aizawa: “Kiri’s internship training made her a pain to deal with. I also wanted to further separate the three of them.”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQRwBAfOBAF
Mirio: “Ah! That makes sense.”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ87pKA7njFj
Nejire: “Wow, who did you intern with?!”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSEDr4ycB6w
Kiri: “Super Master Ninja.”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8J3kFdsZP0
Momo: “She means Edgeshot.”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLivHUYcn58
Nejire: “Oh!? That does explain how I didn’t see her going for sensei.”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVKOWCr2NcT
Aizawa: “Okay, that’s enough talking. It’s almost time for the next match.”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBhnZKtcajM
He says while casually getting out of the nitinol alloy.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu3d3SVA9QV
Momo: “Huh?! Wait… how-”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN2LScTnDWl
Aizawa: “It took a while, don’t beat yourself up over it. I didn’t let you win if that is what you’re thinking.”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5TvcF7I2Zs
Momo: “Oh… that is good.”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmHRttpouE7
Meanwhile, Kiri goes up to Mirio.
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqaHsLlDg7J
Mirio: “What is it?”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAbIoIx6hb1
Kiri: “Watch the next match closely; onii is the one who will become the number 1 hero.”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDTiIEzBJ1F
Mirio: “Really? Then I’m looking forward to it. I’ve heard a lot about him.”
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDa1FUkksD2
And so the group went to fetch Tamaki, who was leaning his head against the gate, before finding a spot to watch the final match of the day.
