BONUS CHAPTER: 1200PS
--<<>>--
The girls watched as Akira walked out.
He walked out into the sunlight, and for the first time since they'd met him, he wasn't carrying his signature pipe. That alone was noteworthy.
But what truly shocked them was his hero costume.
The suit was a sharp, cyber-red combat fit that perfectly blended streetwear aesthetics with high-end tactical armor. A long crimson coat hung open over a black, segmented exo-chest piece that looked built to tank serious hits without sacrificing an ounce of mobility.
Armored gauntlets covered his forearms, reinforced pants protected his legs, and a utility belt and weapon straps crisscrossed his torso. Two blades were strapped to his back in an X-pattern, their handles visible over his shoulders.
THE IMAGE(COMMENT)
Mina leaned closer to Momo, and whispered in her ear. "Damn, he's hot."
Momo felt her cheeks warm slightly but chose to ignore the comment entirely. Instead, she walked directly toward Akira.
"It looks better than I thought it would," Momo said honestly, her eyes taking in the details of his costume.
"I know, right?" Akira grinned, clearly pleased with how it turned out. "Our hard work paid off."
He then looked at her armor, too.
"I can say the same to you. That armor looks incredible."
She laughed, the sound light and genuine. "Means we both got good taste then."
They both laughed together, the easy camaraderie between them obvious to anyone watching.
The entire class began making their way toward Ground Beta.
Conversations buzzed with excitement as students discussed their costumes and speculated about the upcoming training.
All Might stood at the entrance to Ground Beta, and when he spotted his students approaching in their various hero costumes, his smile grew even wider.
"LOOK AT THAT!!" he yelled with enthusiasm. "You all look SO COOL! Just like real heroes already!!"
His voice boomed across the open space, carrying that infectious energy that made it impossible not to feel pumped up.
"NOW SHALL WE BEGIN?!"
"YEAH!!" The class responded in unison.
Just then, rapid footsteps echoed from behind them.
"Wait! Wait! I'm sorry I'm late!"
Izuku Midoriya came running out of the building, still adjusting pieces of his costume as he ran. His outfit was clearly inspired by All Might's aesthetic.
As he ran up to join the group, his eyes immediately caught on Momo and Akira standing near the front. His nerd mind kicked into overdrive instantly, his muttering starting before he could stop himself.
"Those suits look so advanced and expensive," Izuku mumbled rapidly, his eyes darting between details. "What are their functions? Shuzenji-san has two blades with him, which means he knows swordsmanship, but does he actually need swordsmanship with his quirk? What's the tactical advantage?"
His attention shifted to Momo.
"And Yaoyorozu-san, doesn't she need to expose her skin to use her quirk? Doesn't that suit limit her Creation ability? Unless there's a mechanism.... oh, maybe the armor opens in sections! That would make sense strategically because-"
Momo and Akira just stared at him, watching the green-haired boy dissect their costumes with frightening accuracy.
Momo leaned slightly toward Akira, keeping her voice low. "He's creepy and impressive at the same time."
Akira laughed quietly. "I gotta agree with you there. He's really bright with his analysis. Probably top of the class academically."
"Wow, Deku!!" A cheerful voice cut through Izuku's muttering. "You look so cool in your suit!"
Uraraka walked up with a bright smile.
Izuku's brain completely short-circuited. He stopped rambling mid-sentence, his face immediately turning bright red as he processed both the compliment and the fact that Ochaco was talking to him while wearing that particular costume.
"I—uh—you—th..thanks!" he stammered, looking anywhere except directly at her.
While this awkward interaction played out, All Might observed Izuku's costume.
He sighed quietly, walking over to the nervous boy.
"Young Midoriya," All Might expressed, his voice dropping to a more normal volume. "I appreciate your sincerity, truly. But you should at least try to hide your inspiration a bit better. This is your hero identity, not mine."
Izuku looked down, embarrassed. "Y-yes, sir. I'll... I'll work on that."
All Might's smile returned, warm and encouraging. He patted the boy's shoulder before turning back to address the entire class.
"ALRIGHT EVERYONE!" His voice returned to maximum volume. "Let me explain today's training exercise!"
The students immediately quieted down, giving him their full attention.
"This is REAL battle training to understand the basics of hero work!" All Might declared, pulling out a small card from his pocket. "And here's why it's so important. Most villain encounters happen indoors! In buildings, in facilities, and in enclosed spaces where collateral damage becomes a serious concern!"
He gestured broadly at Ground Beta behind him.
"You need to learn how to fight effectively while also protecting civilians, minimizing property damage, and completing your mission objective! This isn't just about having the strongest quirk, it's about strategy, teamwork, and quick thinking!"
Several hands immediately shot up with questions.
"Wait, how will teams be—"
"What if someone's quirk is too destructive for—"
"Are there actual civilians or—"
"Doesn't this cape look cool—" (Fucking rat)
All Might held up both hands, laughing. "I'll answer all questions soon! But first, let me explain the exercise properly!"
He pulled out what looked suspiciously like a script from his belt, glancing at it briefly.
"Right! So here's how it works!" All Might began. "You'll be divided into teams of two! One team will play the VILLAINS, and one team will play the HEROES!"
He started pacing as he explained.
"The villain team's objective is to guard a nuclear weapon. The hero team's objective is to either capture the villains or secure the nuclear weapon within the time limit!"
"The villain team wins if they protect the weapon until time runs out, or if they capture both heroes! Combat is allowed, but you must follow the rule that the weapon cannot be moved from its location!"
The students nodded, the rules clicking into place.
All Might pulled out a box with letters on it. "Teams will be decided randomly! No playing favorites here!"
He began pulling names and assigning them.
"The teams are as follows!"
"Team A: Uraraka and Midoriya!"
"Team B: Shoji and Todoroki!"
"Team C: Yaoyorozu and Ojiro!"
"Team D: Bakugo and Iida!"
"Team E: Ashido and Aoyama!"
"Team F: Jiro and Koda!"
"Team G: Sato and Kaminari!"
"Team H: Tokoyami and Asui!"
"Team I: Shuzenji and Hagakure!"
"Team J: Sero and Kirishima !"
Reactions rippled through the class immediately.
"Ribbit, this should be interesting," Tsuyu commented calmly to Tokoyami, who nodded.
Akira glanced over at Momo, who was standing with Ojiro.
"I wish we could have been on the same team," Akira said with a slight smile. "Would've been less work to do."
Momo smiled back, her expression turning slightly competitive. "But where's the fun in that? Facing each other will be much more interesting."
"True enough," Akira conceded.
All Might pulled out another box. "Now! Time to draw lots for our first match!"
He reached in dramatically, pulling out two balls.
"FIRST MATCH!" He held them up. "Team A will be the HEROES!"
"AND Team D will be the VILLAINS!"
Bakugo and Iida stepped forward.
The moment the teams were announced, Bakugo and Izuku locked eyes.
They stared at each other for a long moment before turning away and heading to their respective preparation areas.
Akira watched the exchange with raised eyebrows. "What kind of weird love-hate relationship is that?"
Momo completely lost it. "Pffffffffffft—" She burst into laughter, actually wiping tears from her eyes. "Hahahaha! They might have some history, but when you put it that way, it sounds so funny!"
Several nearby students turned to look at them, wondering what was so hilarious.
Then All Might's voice cut through the chatter. "Both teams, you have five minutes to prepare! Villain team, head inside and choose your location! Hero team, study the building layout!"
The four students moved to their positions.
Inside Ground Beta's Building B, Iida and Bakugo stood in a large room on the fourth floor, the fake nuclear weapon sitting in the center like a massive prop.
Iida immediately started discussing strategy.
Bakugo, however, wasn't listening. His eyes were fixed on the entrance, his jaw clenched, small explosions already popping in his palms.
"Bakugo-kun, are you listening?" Iida asked, concerned.
"That damn Deku is mine," Bakugo growled. "You handle the round-faced girl. I'm going after him."
"But that's not -"
"I DON'T CARE!" Bakugo snapped, and before Iida could stop him, he was already moving toward the stairwell.
Outside, Ochaco and Izuku stood at the building entrance, studying the blueprint All Might had provided.
"Okay, so the building has five floors," Izuku muttered, his analytical mind already working. "They probably put the weapon somewhere high up for defensive advantage. If we split up.... no, wait, that's dangerous. If we stick together and search floor by floor-"
"Deku," Ochaco interrupted gently. "We'll figure it out. Let's just do our best!"
Her simple confidence helped calm his spiraling thoughts. He nodded, taking a deep breath.
"Right. Let's go."
Back with the observing students, everyone gathered around the monitors that would show the battle from multiple camera angles throughout the building.
"This is so cool!" Kaminari said excitedly.
"I can't wait to see what they do," Mina added, bouncing slightly.
All Might stood at the control panel, his hand hovering over the start button.
"READY?" he called through the communication system.
All four students confirmed.
"THEN... BEGIN!!"
***
Ochaco and Izuku immediately entered the building, moving cautiously through the ground floor. The interior was designed to look like an office building.
"Stay alert," Izuku whispered. "Kacchan could attack from anywhere."
He was right.
They'd barely made it to the stairwell when an explosion erupted from above.
"DIEEEEE!!"
Bakugo came flying down the stairs like a human missile, his palms already crackling with explosions. He didn't bother with strategy or subtlety, he launched himself directly at Izuku.
"Deku!" Ochaco yelled in warning.
Izuku barely managed to dodge, throwing himself sideways as Bakugo's explosion cratered the floor where he'd been standing a second before.
The observation room erupted in reactions.
"He's so aggressive!"
"Is he even trying to protect the weapon?!"
"Poor Midoriya-kun..."
Akira watched the screen with analytical interest. "He's got tunnel vision. Completely ignoring the objective."
Momo nodded in agreement. "Iida's going to have to defend alone. That's a disadvantage."
On screen, the battle intensified.
While Bakugo relentlessly pursued Izuku through the building's corridors, Ochaco managed to slip away during the chaos, using her Zero Gravity to float up the exterior of the building.
Inside, Izuku was getting battered. Every time he tried to create distance, Bakugo closed it with explosive propulsion. Every time he tried to reason, Bakugo attacked harder.
"Is that all you have?!" Bakugo screamed.
Meanwhile, Ochaco reached the fourth floor through a window, finding herself face-to-face with Iida, who was guarding the weapon with exaggerated villain roleplay.
"MWAHAHAHA!" Iida's laugh echoed through the room. "You shall not pass, hero!"
Despite the absurdity, he was taking his role seriously, using his Engine quirk to patrol around the weapon at high speed, cutting off her approach angles.
Back in the hallway, Bakugo prepared his most powerful attack yet, pulling the pin on his grenade-style gauntlet. Stored explosive sweat began concentrating, building toward a massive blast.
In the observation room, All Might's expression turned serious. His hand moved toward the emergency stop button.
But Izuku moved first.
The green-haired boy activated One For All, power crackling across his arm in green lightning. He'd been saving it, afraid to use it, but he had no choice now.
He pulled back his fist as Bakugo released his explosion.
The two attacks collided in the center of the hallway.
The resulting shockwave was catastrophic. The entire building shook. Windows shattered. Walls cracked. The force traveled upward, disrupting the fourth floor entirely.
The explosion of wind and debris gave Ochaco the opening she needed. While Iida was thrown off balance, she launched herself forward, slapping her hands on the weapon.
"SECURED!" she yelled triumphantly.
The buzzer sounded.
"HERO TEAM... WINS!!" All Might announced.
In the observation room, stunned silence filled the space.
Then, slowly, reactions started pouring out.
"That was insane!"
"Did you see that punch?!"
"The entire building almost collapsed!"
"Midoriya has that much power?!"
Momo stared at the screen. "That's a weird quirk."
Akira nodded grimly. "It's strong, but not sustainable. He'll tear himself apart if he keeps fighting like that."
All Might was already moving, rushing into the building to provide medical assistance.
The class watched as both Izuku and Bakugo were helped out of the building. Izuku's right arm hung uselessly, clearly broken. Bakugo looked physically fine but mentally shattered, his expression blank.
All Might returned to the observation room.
"Well!" he said, trying to maintain the positive energy. "That was certainly... intense! Who can tell me what went wrong in that exercise?"
Several hands went up, and the class began dissecting the match, discussing tactics, teamwork, and the importance of maintaining objectives over personal grudges.
Everyone understanding the hero training has finally begun.
