Todoroki thought he was the strongest in the class. It made sense due to his quirk and who his father was. But never before has anyone been so humbled.
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC6rVjSyOkB
It’s a miracle he survived the collateral damage of that climactic fight. He was going to go to the main plaza, but hearing the commotion, he changed his mind. Maybe someone needed his help.
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZuAAUnW4Ah
Clearly not.
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIhHfKHWXJ4
The person fighting the Nomu was nothing like the boy he occasionally noticed in class. That person was like the personification of conflict itself.
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdOjlhjZFjo
But he could tell that it wasn’t Izuku’s normal state. His normal state was the one he was dragging through the broken city. Whatever caused his massive power increase, they can’t rely on it now.
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdg6jytZ14n
Especially if it’s anything like his fiery half. Todoroki can completely understand why Izuku might not want to use it. But then, what’s the solution?
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNDvgBHSDGf
Todoroki: “Do you have a plan?”
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpr5LZPH1Fy
Izuku: “H-Huh?”
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡavG6BnSJjz
Todoroki: “We can’t keep running forever, and I won’t ask you to use a power you don’t want to. But we need something. Think.”
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgijuwhlaEd
Izuku casts his gaze to the ground and tries. He breathes in and out, trying to focus his mind once again.
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5dLZ58miRl
Ever since he… regained his sanity, the buzzing has slowly returned. If he is to finish what he started, he needs to focus.
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZaIWVBrSjI
Izuku: “From… what I can remember… fire seemed to work the best on him.”
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡynoL6HC0GZ
Todoroki: “I… see.”
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY8Duvkx6R0
Izuku: “I can’t do what I did before, but… maybe I can try something else.”
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiH7gsB1KNp
The boy can still remember the sensation of how to control his destructive fire. If he can replicate that, AND ONLY THAT, then he can win. Because capture is not possible.
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ31WCUOkT91
Izuku: ‘It’s fine. He’s not human, practically a quirk beast. I’m not a villain. I’m not a monster. I’m doing this to survive, not because I like it.’
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeXDR3usKBy
Todoroki: “What do you need?”
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlOQVM7qve0
Izuku: “Continue to slow him down, give me some-”
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDDTRF8F0ij
Todoroki: “DOWN!”
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl01JcrjzS9
Todoroki pushes Izuku away as he dodges the Nomu ground smash. Debris is flung everywhere but the two boys are only scratched a bit. Todoroki retaliates by freezing the Nomu once more.
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKWgdAGj54h
The creature can break and heal from the damage the ice causes, but not the damage from before. The severity of the wounds Izuku inflicted before refuses to heal.
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWnEv1oFnYX
Because of this, the Nomu is far weaker and slower than before. Worse still, he only has one arm.
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQQM5XmbGLD
They can do this.
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPwbkDCoYqc
Todoroki: “I’ll buy you time, hurry!”
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGDxKjzlwYs
Izuku: “R-Right!”
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡglyFXc9nmQ
Izuku drags his body a bit further away from the Nomu and closes his eyes.
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxbIBVdApHE
He digs deep, reaching for his psychic power and his flames. Like before, the primordial flame erupted into existence. But due to Izuku’s weakened state and the psychic disruptor, it only covered his arms and didn’t hurt as much.
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2kX2qzopD7
Now, don’t misunderstand; his skin was still boiling, but compared to before it’s much more manageable.
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJLQvv0Gz1m
Izuku howled an ungodly scream, but he didn’t stop.
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKcVygFNkQb
Izuku: “I have to… do this. I won’t let… everyone down!”
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq8sdvjgHYn
He focused all of his will on forcing the flame to obey him, to focus on his hands. It was working, slowly. From his elbow to his wrists. The skin previously burnt was healing due to the softer flames.
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmDJ6dgxoWW
But it wasn’t enough. He needed it between his palms if he wanted it to be fired at the Nomu.
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy898jBsmVu
The pain, however, was getting to him.
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlyszFVn5IA
Todoroki: “Midoriya!”
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeZfgNljFdG
Izuku: “I’m… trying.”
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdyynFRQnvt
He couldn’t open his eyes to see Todoroki overtaxing his ice to keep the Nomu back. He couldn’t open them to see his hands falling apart. It would only distract him and show him just how hopeless this is.
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9iA4P9Ef0M
Izuku: ‘Everyone… I’m sor-’
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGNTJI9XBZB
Fubuki: “Izu!!”
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqZXMd7Bu6W
Suddenly, he felt a cool warmth wrap around him. The flames cool ever so slightly, and his control over it is better. But that was drowned out by his sister’s awful screams.
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLPuOnFXSJ1
Izuku: “Fubuki!!?”
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡssPEyIVPFh
Fubuki: “Don’t worry about me, focus! I’ll help you control it!”
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ89qQc465FS
The boy blinks away his tears and tries even harder. Yes, the flames are closer to their destination, tightly packed near his palms.
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmqLHRygVxN
But he has regeneration; Fubuki doesn’t. He can feel her hands melting, trying to keep his from falling apart.
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOX1XOvumXB
Izuku: ‘NO! I… will… not… let you hurt my sister! STOP IT!!’
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBVXliAT1ks
And so the prince commands and the flame obeys. The flames become cool to Fubuki, as signified by her grunts of pain being replaced by a sigh of relief.
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrUCppe95ZJ
It’s still burning him, but that’s fine with Izuku. Now without pain clouding her mind, Fubuki could fully help contain the flame.
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0D2Xi9eexw
Fubuki: “Now, Izu!”
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS6d3In8qJD
Izuku opens his eyes with a green flash to see a nearly free Nomu standing a few feet away, hand reaching out for them. Now or never, the name of this biblical attack appears in their minds.
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeY8x5KQvB4
Izuku and Fubuki: “ROARING PHOENIX CANNON!!”
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJKNOraXeXX
With the screech of a phoenix, the flame is let loose to bring hell to the royal family’s enemy. The phoenix made manifest swallows the Nomu and consumes it in the roar of an inferno.
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2r8in75zZH
The creature’s screams of pain are quickly snuffed out. All that’s left is a melted sludge, a mix of the Nomu and the metal beneath him.
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ctnkSONlf
Izuku: “We… did it. It’s… over.”
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOO7326TLTa
Beyond exhausted, Izuku falls to his knees and loses consciousness. Fubuki catches him in her arms and guides him to the ground.
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3FQbQRmnjs
She does wince due to her hands still being scorched, not as bad as Izuku’s but still…
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡApajy4yGEw
Fubuki: “I hope Recovery Girl can fix this.”
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvjR5JEOodH
Suddenly, green flames erupt over her hands. At first, she thought she was going to burn again but instead, the flames completely healed her.
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTsbhy3l9B5
Fubuki: “W-What?”
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjDK8FThvRK
She looks down at her brother, who is grabbing her arm with his still scorched hands.
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3DCZYsMgjb
Fubuki: ‘Did he… unconsciously heal me? He can heal!?’
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW68K7sBdOQ
Any other time, she may have been a bit jealous. But this time, she was not only grateful but also proud.
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfdJ3Jjy7bS
Fubuki: “I have such a troublesome but… amazing little brother.”
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1zxUI3n6Ae
Todoroki: “You Midoriyas are really something. I don’t even think my father could create fire that hot.”
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA214MuElpR
Fubuki: “I think Izu is the really amazing one. Not even Tatsu can create fire. Maybe control it, but not this.”
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0uTLrbV10X
Even now, she can see a few flickers of fire healing his scars and burns.
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHiiI4FOmfp
Fubuki: “Can you help us? Izu is out, and I can barely feel my-”
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQxBtr8Bgkt
Suddenly, the buzzing stopped, and Fubuki felt like a weight had been lifted. The flickers of fire on Izuku’s wounds burst into a constant flame.
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2p1XqlnU5v
Fubuki: “Ah, I guess someone destroyed that psychic disruptor. Finally, the battle must have gone in our favor.”
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoC86OfwVJS
Todoroki: “That’s good. Does that mean you can walk?”
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5JXAggocfN
Fubuki: “Not fully, we still need some help if you don’t mind.”
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXBnJJHW0dG
Todoroki: “No problem.”
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTEPWIEDfqZ
Todoroki helps Fubuki, who helps Izuku. Victorious, the trio makes their way to the central plaza.
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI5vefBm9x5
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNevpgd2Wzp
Before the phoenix took flight.
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7mOfKMEsBL
Apotheosis couldn’t help but grumble as he got closer to the central plaza. He failed to kill Fubuki, and now he knows his psychic disruptor is still far from perfect.
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvN3xJcGWW3
Apotheosis: “Ugh, this will only delay my big project even more! I hope Tomura is having better luck.”
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrFkme3OlCx
He wasn’t. Apotheosis arrives on the scene to see Kurogiri captured and Tomura being pressured by a student with red hair. Worse still, the rest of the goons have been defeated by the teacher and a frog girl.
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsu0YAYwXsP
At least they did enough damage to have them out of the fight for a moment. A moment is all Apotheosis needs to turn this around. He dashed into the fray and shot a blast at the one who captured Kurogiri.
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBzVRDoJVed
Somehow, the teacher saw this and quickly saved the boy with his capture rope.
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbD24mYwZqJ
Bakugo: “Wha-”
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOEXQnpY5k3
Apotheosis: “Tch.”
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLyXNzgOMAL
Aizawa: “Kirishima, back off!”
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9bKdR4AQ3U
The boy didn’t question it, he quickly backed away just as Kurogiri and Apotheosis joined Tomura. The frog girl then quickly got the unconscious girl further away from the villains.
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFJKVf4EYMi
The two groups, both pretty exhausted, settled across from each other. A temporary break to regroup.
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg3snt20pbQ
Kurogiri: “Thank you for the assistance, Apotheosis.”
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdM0QX8xJUN
Apotheosis: “No problem. Sooo, what happened? Where’s All Might?”
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCLF9TWSC7W
Tomura: “Is your sister dead?”
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZjnPhhdxjs
Apotheosis: “… I’ll get her next time.”
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Gzz8b5Pou
Tomura breathed deeply before scratching his neck roughly.
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0tATLrbTLr
Apotheosis: “But forget her; I picked up a quirk level that should be coming from All Might. Where is he?”
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8TlWXDzPGO
Tomura: “Not here.”
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnTVyg1fQ29
Apotheosis: “Then who-”
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlKZeIk9hNB
That’s when the strategist noticed something strange; Nomu was missing.
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0GidwmbtLi
Apotheosis: “Where’s Nomu?”
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMXTqs8oYWE
Tomura: “Not here, obviously. I sent him after some brat, and he hasn’t returned.”
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwjZur9ZNEV
Apotheosis could already tell who has delayed, or somehow, defeated Nomu. If Fubuki could surprise him, why not Izuku? But Nomu!? How on earth could he survive that? Was he really the quirk level he picked up?
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnzSWHYMKts
He needs to do more research on his family.
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV82UW6XWSe
Apotheosis: ‘I might have focused too much on Tatsumaki. The other two are just as crazy. What’s next? Is their mother secretly powerful as well?’
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7wnx0joSbB
Tomura: “Your family is nothing but cheats.”
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0YlBEMGEjH
Apotheosis: “Don’t I know it? Well, assuming Nomu somehow lost, I suggest we kill these heroes in retaliation and get out of here. We’re not leaving here with nothing.”
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBp89iwWLy8
Tomura: “Agreed.”
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqbNnXOKxgh
Kurogiri: “Then let us be quick.”
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZlMygspSOx
Seeing the villains finally turn to the heroes, Aizawa dragged his body forward and prepared to defend his students. The two groups stare each other down, ready for the final clash.
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAwHYE19y0s
That’s until the front door was smashed open.
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiJRCe60Hk7
All Might: “Have no fear, for we are here!”
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVhe7cIUt2g
Apotheosis: “Oh, now he comes!”
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWBS2Hw4bkt
Tomura: “All Might…”
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfTjy74XpD8
And he wasn’t alone.
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi1UWqQQBFP
Ida: “We have arrived!!”
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5l8kQ69r3N
Ida successfully brought a whole host of other pro heroes.
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzRi3YosTPJ
Apotheosis: “Ha, can this get any worse?”
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuvr7PvO0nt
All Might dashed into the plaza, faster than anyone could perceive, and destroyed the Psychic Disruptor in a single blow.
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFJAP9JOB8D
Apotheosis: “Of course it can; we’re dead. We have a minute or two at most before she comes.”
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWWpAgHCFXR
Tomura: “Aaaahh, it’s our game over screen. Back to the drawing board. Let’s go.”
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6IlvVMSOGJ
Kurogiri nods and expands himself, ready to open a gate.
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQChPZUWQA1
All Might: “You think I’d let you!”
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAfp49KCsKH
Apotheosis gets in front of Tomura and aims his power glove at All Might. He’s also ready with the trap foam if needed. But before All Might gets too close, something strange happens.
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFiRaWypKoZ
Sickly mud bursts into existence between the villains and All Might. A gloved hand emerges out of the muddy portal, and the reactions are telling. The heroes are confused while the villains-
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9CARtlvPY6
Tomura: “A continue?”
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeGjdfjaqxx
Apotheosis: “Haha, maybe it’s not so hopeless.”
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡETGqfGfuBu
Seeing the villains regain hope despite All Might being present filled all the heroes there with worry.
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVVxKusLFRE
The reason for the change of atmosphere stepped out of the mud portal like this was a normal occurrence. He had a clean business suit, messy black hair, and eyes darker than the misty abyss.
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX6ypWmRj7c
It was those eyes that really sent chills down everyone’s spines. It was so… empty and cold. His affiliations were also quite clear. He had a face mask similar to Apotheosis. But unlike his, this one was black with straight lines instead of hexagons.
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ25wQxF8zWV
All Might: “I-Impossible…”
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQIEHCAiKJw
Apotheosis: “Now that you’re back from your little trip, maybe we can win. At the very least, we should be able to take down some of these so-called heroes.”
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5jFS07SkYu
???: “I hate to disappoint you, but no.”
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9e9thYLBnY
Tomura: “What!? How can we leave before defeating the final boss?”
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCMDSOSvwwD
???: “Be wise; even together, we can’t defeat All Might before the Tornado gets here. Now, if the Psychic Disruptor was still working-”
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0FwVaagr5e
Apotheosis: “I get it! I’ll improve its durability until even you can’t destroy it. We’ll go.”
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfijOlSvm3c
Surprisingly, the dead eyes of the newcomer turned to Tomura and Apotheosis and smiled. Unlike the eyes he’ll show to everyone else, these were… warm. But it was only for a second.
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6gxbihjK5L
???: “Good. Now, Mr. Kurogiri, take them away. I won’t be long. I still have around a minute left.”
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoUk0scZNlB
Kurogiri: “Yes.”
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUyYMQ3SiWx
No one tried to stop them from leaving; how could they? All Might was still stunned by who was before him while everyone else wasn’t suicidal.
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡemkssuoDpN
There was something about this man that screamed danger. Only All Might or Tatsumaki could possibly approach him; anyone else would be annihilated. Even Bakugo was slightly shaking in fear.
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUZLPwyzrIV
The mysterious man turned back to All Might, and his dead eyes returned. But there was some cruel joy hidden deep within.
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwrckrg9Gyc
???: “Why the long face? Smile, All Might.”
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmAeKgT2jNI
All Might: “You are-”
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv78YLLYym4
???: “Shhh, we wouldn’t want everyone to know your dirty past. Besides, I go by Azrael now.”
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmz6aqgPKYN
He looks into the distance and closes his eyes. He feels the young flame that intrigues and frustrates him along with the cool snow. Soon after, he hears the faint sound of the wind. It was time to go.
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu5oRktFXvY
Azrael: “Seeing that you’re too stunned to fight, I’ll take my leave. Savor the peace you have now, for this was just the beginning.”
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjFK2eOQOk1
With that, the man melted into mud, and silence returned to the plaza. What could be said after what just happened? Dirty past? Our Symbol of Peace?
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxsLul0sriG
But the face All Might was making was no lie; he knew that man. The time for questions was over; however, the heroes needed to regroup and recover.
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLdr39g1iQE
Especially since the psychic family was about to reunite again.
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPd7ZNdDRHP
Fubuki: “What happened?”
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn7pPlUwjVi
Everyone turned to see Todoroki helping Fubuki, who’s helping an unconscious Izuku to the central plaza. Green flames were still licking the wounds on his arms and hands.
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSJq1nhOkFm
Tatsumaki: “A great question.”
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYEpQ24uLXX
Above them all, the usually explosive Tornado was floating down from the glass ceiling. Her expression was cool and calm, but everyone knew she was holding the fury in for now.
98Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkEIMWLo428
The battle may be over, but the cleanup might not be much better.
