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.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRkX8TgcuCZ
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.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrqWCpPj5Zm
Clearly not.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqe8g1V7dg4
The person fighting the Nomu was nothing like the boy he occasionally noticed in class. That person was like the personification of conflict itself.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx23shuzToq
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.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6VrwoBSOzd
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?
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8PVhrBLoqp
Todoroki: “Do you have a plan?”
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrugZWYotcY
Izuku: “H-Huh?”
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ82J7CK4m1l
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.”
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7aSmH8gFvX
Izuku casts his gaze to the ground and tries. He breathes in and out, trying to focus his mind once again.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgfvlR5B60I
Ever since he… regained his sanity, the buzzing has slowly returned. If he is to finish what he started, he needs to focus.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvSZiOoX9e2
Izuku: “From… what I can remember… fire seemed to work the best on him.”
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2xNY3kb4T1
Todoroki: “I… see.”
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZVgb2PPcGf
Izuku: “I can’t do what I did before, but… maybe I can try something else.”
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXVKfj08DyF
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.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaVWbd4ZRAo
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.’
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfHq2Z32ViE
Todoroki: “What do you need?”
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy9A91JmXOm
Izuku: “Continue to slow him down, give me some-”
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ62nnNrtzBd
Todoroki: “DOWN!”
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh3VnC1EWmC
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.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡETbveAblYu
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.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBZXiylEcyF
Because of this, the Nomu is far weaker and slower than before. Worse still, he only has one arm.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqroWKGBeop
They can do this.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo8FYpoTM4H
Todoroki: “I’ll buy you time, hurry!”
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU7bPjr6yaV
Izuku: “R-Right!”
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡghefq1zqyS
Izuku drags his body a bit further away from the Nomu and closes his eyes.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHiKZGKWYTu
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.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNHRekmt9ru
Now, don’t misunderstand; his skin was still boiling, but compared to before it’s much more manageable.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLg9zEltpqW
Izuku howled an ungodly scream, but he didn’t stop.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjBrd0Bm43F
Izuku: “I have to… do this. I won’t let… everyone down!”
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe37NoXTchr
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.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf8wcQbH3Nw
But it wasn’t enough. He needed it between his palms if he wanted it to be fired at the Nomu.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoccAbkwWho
The pain, however, was getting to him.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYC9seetmeZ
Todoroki: “Midoriya!”
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPexTy4aDPw
Izuku: “I’m… trying.”
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFgAhCWzRLG
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.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj1dmkw1wRR
Izuku: ‘Everyone… I’m sor-’
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOEi12kUb7h
Fubuki: “Izu!!”
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHXoRNdANnG
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.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5MovN3mv4z
Izuku: “Fubuki!!?”
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwlwHFYMm4c
Fubuki: “Don’t worry about me, focus! I’ll help you control it!”
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAx4jiCD2vr
The boy blinks away his tears and tries even harder. Yes, the flames are closer to their destination, tightly packed near his palms.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXu6KC1iPbH
But he has regeneration; Fubuki doesn’t. He can feel her hands melting, trying to keep his from falling apart.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡirmZeMN0tf
Izuku: ‘NO! I… will… not… let you hurt my sister! STOP IT!!’
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1sU98dLwfX
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.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXeZwI44zYe
It’s still burning him, but that’s fine with Izuku. Now without pain clouding her mind, Fubuki could fully help contain the flame.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpIPxOOwEkg
Fubuki: “Now, Izu!”
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjBq38Nc0jT
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.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsD9r9BF7Gc
Izuku and Fubuki: “ROARING PHOENIX CANNON!!”
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGzTnu8Ut4L
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.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPKzRRsbJPN
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.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7kaT2SnxXF
Izuku: “We… did it. It’s… over.”
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz0In6Cbyjk
Beyond exhausted, Izuku falls to his knees and loses consciousness. Fubuki catches him in her arms and guides him to the ground.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCv42UoriOJ
She does wince due to her hands still being scorched, not as bad as Izuku’s but still…
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9phvzPBZmo
Fubuki: “I hope Recovery Girl can fix this.”
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT9peUFGvmO
Suddenly, green flames erupt over her hands. At first, she thought she was going to burn again but instead, the flames completely healed her.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqlYLldqzb7
Fubuki: “W-What?”
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPQdazSqVFe
She looks down at her brother, who is grabbing her arm with his still scorched hands.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqZ8sFYytJG
Fubuki: ‘Did he… unconsciously heal me? He can heal!?’
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSetvN3uU8m
Any other time, she may have been a bit jealous. But this time, she was not only grateful but also proud.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUERx9gCR6v
Fubuki: “I have such a troublesome but… amazing little brother.”
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDzcfJdOq4l
Todoroki: “You Midoriyas are really something. I don’t even think my father could create fire that hot.”
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡljwdDBiVez
Fubuki: “I think Izu is the really amazing one. Not even Tatsu can create fire. Maybe control it, but not this.”
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4sWdCMi91G
Even now, she can see a few flickers of fire healing his scars and burns.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1dnghirj4p
Fubuki: “Can you help us? Izu is out, and I can barely feel my-”
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLK5xFrFpjT
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.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx62eybSi4I
Fubuki: “Ah, I guess someone destroyed that psychic disruptor. Finally, the battle must have gone in our favor.”
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0SWhDFAoZH
Todoroki: “That’s good. Does that mean you can walk?”
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA4DGV5maOG
Fubuki: “Not fully, we still need some help if you don’t mind.”
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzbCb3wauML
Todoroki: “No problem.”
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7WmGzrMXyB
Todoroki helps Fubuki, who helps Izuku. Victorious, the trio makes their way to the central plaza.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgmJcLG7spF
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRnGUs9j0ZY
Before the phoenix took flight.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWFq0Aalk4s
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.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOUQodBJwUI
Apotheosis: “Ugh, this will only delay my big project even more! I hope Tomura is having better luck.”
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUX2zaJoJ8H
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.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNevjVsG9SN
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.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKNuCLtGOG9
Somehow, the teacher saw this and quickly saved the boy with his capture rope.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdizA8VcQwR
Bakugo: “Wha-”
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTzk3ySGZEH
Apotheosis: “Tch.”
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg5AWC6hYpJ
Aizawa: “Kirishima, back off!”
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ2UTrSYudk
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.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ32EfWlFnmy
The two groups, both pretty exhausted, settled across from each other. A temporary break to regroup.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWKnEJmaVuC
Kurogiri: “Thank you for the assistance, Apotheosis.”
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuQMmFapmjQ
Apotheosis: “No problem. Sooo, what happened? Where’s All Might?”
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPIZPekJByd
Tomura: “Is your sister dead?”
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlKRazn59tW
Apotheosis: “… I’ll get her next time.”
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe26oT2oi8A
Tomura breathed deeply before scratching his neck roughly.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGEfvLdamnr
Apotheosis: “But forget her; I picked up a quirk level that should be coming from All Might. Where is he?”
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoWhQxHITu1
Tomura: “Not here.”
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ71RWjmLXEH
Apotheosis: “Then who-”
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfuHbIUYcjS
That’s when the strategist noticed something strange; Nomu was missing.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw2c52gWaAc
Apotheosis: “Where’s Nomu?”
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSSbtrAq9a3
Tomura: “Not here, obviously. I sent him after some brat, and he hasn’t returned.”
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡozDMqtUzfw
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?
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQO8bpUnQqH
He needs to do more research on his family.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡon0xnm9Fuz
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?’
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNIIqX9num6
Tomura: “Your family is nothing but cheats.”
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy2j2BSytRV
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.”
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKU0crN5ewr
Tomura: “Agreed.”
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAVni3fcavw
Kurogiri: “Then let us be quick.”
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5iiRE78JEk
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.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJd9o9FARVA
That’s until the front door was smashed open.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJnKA0ifJes
All Might: “Have no fear, for we are here!”
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9V4Uzw5XL8
Apotheosis: “Oh, now he comes!”
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5sidZWcGPd
Tomura: “All Might…”
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEucfjx9ihF
And he wasn’t alone.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5J4CaClxHm
Ida: “We have arrived!!”
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtmITDYKWFB
Ida successfully brought a whole host of other pro heroes.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdCZnHCQN4e
Apotheosis: “Ha, can this get any worse?”
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl5zNK2yixN
All Might dashed into the plaza, faster than anyone could perceive, and destroyed the Psychic Disruptor in a single blow.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG1A9Gz1bzg
Apotheosis: “Of course it can; we’re dead. We have a minute or two at most before she comes.”
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGYgqSjM0DT
Tomura: “Aaaahh, it’s our game over screen. Back to the drawing board. Let’s go.”
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOek6TRyYNN
Kurogiri nods and expands himself, ready to open a gate.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpPUqjHkDf4
All Might: “You think I’d let you!”
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN2vNEK4bo4
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.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx6xYBzx0M1
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-
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7sTYcpBr6a
Tomura: “A continue?”
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBTPH9BZIfs
Apotheosis: “Haha, maybe it’s not so hopeless.”
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9TsghgUYt6
Seeing the villains regain hope despite All Might being present filled all the heroes there with worry.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT0Pbp5uh7n
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.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLHzi0rOSEI
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.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHTFsN3FK8E
All Might: “I-Impossible…”
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHSdeLxAoly
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.”
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcfL2fFqa41
???: “I hate to disappoint you, but no.”
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW98ZXfpVR7
Tomura: “What!? How can we leave before defeating the final boss?”
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAhFnYZjVrN
???: “Be wise; even together, we can’t defeat All Might before the Tornado gets here. Now, if the Psychic Disruptor was still working-”
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjrQfebEumP
Apotheosis: “I get it! I’ll improve its durability until even you can’t destroy it. We’ll go.”
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6JzWNciroE
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.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBfOv92ci9u
???: “Good. Now, Mr. Kurogiri, take them away. I won’t be long. I still have around a minute left.”
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkufYZzZBqZ
Kurogiri: “Yes.”
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVzJQIuXiYb
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.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkvbuQLaZKH
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.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVBIhDAZahm
The mysterious man turned back to All Might, and his dead eyes returned. But there was some cruel joy hidden deep within.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv49xCxJp06
???: “Why the long face? Smile, All Might.”
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZkuoG0EVdT
All Might: “You are-”
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt0rxCzaK0V
???: “Shhh, we wouldn’t want everyone to know your dirty past. Besides, I go by Azrael now.”
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLEmE3WhI3n
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.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhZCNs2RYb4
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.”
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZZi0PfxzTB
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?
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3du745DAdn
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.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6kQ7AQmdKU
Especially since the psychic family was about to reunite again.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1zCOontruf
Fubuki: “What happened?”
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYL7bScWh74
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.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVvP0Z0zYEQ
Tatsumaki: “A great question.”
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNU95DcRbk4
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.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj0G9xEhWKt
The battle may be over, but the cleanup might not be much better.
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXfTfFSR0dT
