Kiri is usually very perceptive to the changes within Izuku, but not this time. Whatever happened was too quick, too sudden, for her to fully grasp.
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7gHvYHy5AW
It felt similar to when she lost control before, but different enough to make her even more worried.
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0uYUp6zqOd
As soon as Shinso fell unconscious, she knew her sisters would want some answers. So she left her class and made her way to where they were.
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Mjhlfb4T5
It didn’t take long for the whole family to convene; even All Might was there. They all looked at Izuku who had his head downcast. Inko sat next to him, rubbing his back.
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRY5khKPbX5
Inko: “Sweetie, what… happened?”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXa1jvJoXFl
Izuku said nothing.
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6OvP2VLM0h
All Might: “You’re not in trouble, young Midoriya; we’re just worried.”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡReD0M8wc9G
Izuku: “I know.”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXFoCBoIn9E
Tatsumaki: “Izu, does this have anything to do with what we talked about?”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3UBkvCodUu
His eyes widen a little before settling back to normal.
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Lc0LoQ8L8
Tatsumaki: “I see. The first step in learning how not to fear your quirk is to understand it. So, what did you do to the boy?”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHFtFdg9RwA
Izuku: “I didn’t mean to.”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlYbmHjEzOg
Inko: “We know, sweetie. We know you would never do something like… that… on purpose.”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5D0ZzCd3JQ
Izuku: “… All I remember is going unconscious for a second, and the next, he was screaming. I don’t… know what happened.”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdShWBGVZwj
They all could tell that last part was a lie. Maybe he doesn’t know exactly what happened, but he has an idea. This only increased their worry.
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvN45NNwNqS
Fubuki: “Let’s think about this from another angle. All Might, what quirk does Shinso have?”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ZzKbdpmDE
All Might: “Hmmmm, from what I remember, he has the ability to brainwash people.”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFyFyxVtwG3
Fubuki: “That’s… disturbing.”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB4gWsFK8wM
Tatsumaki: “I think I know what happened.”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTZCtifnifn
Izuku: “Y-You do?”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoSZyjUEC9z
Tatsumaki: “I thought I sensed another psychic signature. It was weak, but there.”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ26joa1y99I
Fubuki: “So Shinso has a quirk related to ours?”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEsWDynvTXR
Tatsumaki: “Yeah, but instead of telekinesis, he focuses on mental attacks.”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQbGWd2CnvU
Fubuki: ‘I guess that makes sense. Wait, doesn’t that mean I could do that eventually?’
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyN5CsqqowI
Inko: “But what does that have to do with Izuku?”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ487IRES47w
Tatsumaki: “Well, I guess Izu’s mind instinctively defended itself.”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNYKt5W47Zv
Kiri could see Izuku’s shoulder lose some tension. They were on the right track.
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyNelgtDx1n
Inko: “I see! See, sweetie, it’s not your fault.”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNHei6XIKW3
All Might: “She’s right, young Midoriya; don’t let what happened get to you. Young Shinso will be alright; Recovery Girl is on the case. In the meantime, you need to get this side of your quirk under control.”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQEQnaNNDWu
Izuku: “I’ll… try. I-I’ve already been practicing telepathy with Yaoyorozu.”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwSqSQQgFuJ
Fubuki: “Really?”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr4BHt2WL8L
Tatsumaki: “That might have been what allowed your mind to fight back like that. More practice could help you have more control.”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOOT3ENkyKr
Izuku: “I… suppose.”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4is7W3Ro2m
Fubuki: “I can help teach him.”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyuHIXikOBM
Tatsumaki: “You? How?”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ00gg7bIATu
Fubuki: “Well… I’ve been recently… learning how to read minds.”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjIi1Rno2Gk
They all look at Fubuki with wide eyes full of surprise.
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjv3j3kxQ05
Tatsumaki: “You can do that!? Why didn’t you tell me?”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9NDXhv26FK
Fubuki crossed her arms and looked away.
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxvjGIkWTzx
Fubuki: “I didn’t want to until I mastered it. You always said I should train harder; well, I found time.”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjtyzfLpzd3
Yeah, Tatsumaki always said that. Put the agency on the back burner and train harder. That way, Fubuki can stand proudly beside her at the top. But for some reason, this didn’t put a smile on her face.
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3D9OA1Sa4g
Tatsumaki: ‘Why would she hide it from me? She used to be so excited to share when she learned a new trick with her quirk.’
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh5eGDgmMRj
A trick or ability Tatsumaki would master in just a few moments.
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzwdGtOlApP
Tatsumaki: ‘Ah…’
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ0AqHNufmU
Before that realization could sink in, Fubuki continued.
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ63yTPn6Dde
Fubuki: “So, Izu, if you need help, come to me. We can help each other master this ability so we don’t hurt anyone on accident.”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡByOO7cloju
Izuku: “… Okay. Thanks, Fubu.”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfeY8GXu0qO
Fubuki: “Anytime.”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhK9f9bYZeP
All Might: “Great! I’m glad you all have sorted this out. I’ll inform everyone else what we’ve learned about young Midoriya’s quirk.”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9HDp97j1LR
Izuku: “They might still be scared.”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyc7GfEQbXG
Tatsumaki: “Hmph, can’t please everyone. You are what you are. As long as you don’t go overboard or misuse your quirk, most people will be fine with you. You’ll see.”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRwgg5YQ7Yg
Izuku: “Y-Yeah, thanks everyone.”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡldpYh9tstg
Just then, a loud boom was felt throughout the whole stadium. Tatsumaki was ready to tear apart the villain who dared come here. But she relaxed when she saw the real reason.
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ22dVsJxXWr
Tatsumaki: “You have an impressive classmate, Izu.”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIyMqC689ey
Inko: “W-W-What is that!?”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs9IGAia4Hg
A massive glacier of ice engulfs a large portion of the stadium. It was large enough for the whole group to see it out of their window. It was actually pretty close to their booth.
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6uJdvBBRkB
Izuku: “Todoroki… ”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR9511DmrQl
All Might: “He might have gone a bit overboard.”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHctGnJcGdi
Kiri: “Icicle strong. Poor Smile.”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMGTFN5tREn
Fubuki: “Doesn’t that mean you’re up next?”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2gOnqHMzZR
Kiri: “Ah.”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡejhtzhFajd
Inko: “That’s right! Good luck, sweetie!”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwPHV1UIsOa
Kiri: “Ih.”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg59grYCcrf
Kiri grabs Izuku’s hand and helps him up.
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpZya6TBNCt
Kiri: “Cheer for me?”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡycJDlYg8xg
Izuku: “O-Of course. I’ll be with everyone else. Don’t worry, Kiri, I’m… okay now. It wasn’t my fault; I know that now.”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSdqjkDJcTn
Kiri: “… Good.”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3E3n7dfgHY
All Might: “I’ll walk young Midoriya to where his class is.”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFHOCE14Jgs
Fubuki: “I’ll help melt the ice.”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxeOuco0Egl
Tatsumaki: “You don’t want me to do it?”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxpStToXUiJ
Fubuki: “I can handle it.”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJwco8WgVuQ
Fubuki floated out of the booth and towards the glacier. Shaving away the ice with her quirk shouldn’t be too difficult. Besides, she can’t sit and do nothing this whole festival.
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡas3ZBV676c
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf3esaw0rCy
It didn’t take long for the trio to make it to where the rest of the class was. Izuku peered out of the corner to see his classmates sitting down and socializing while the glacier was rapidly shrinking.
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvXRyy7SN4s
All Might: “Don’t worry, young Midoriya, it will be alright. Your classmates will not treat you any differently.”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjvx12jnMh4
Izuku: “I-I know. Doesn’t stop my heart from racing.”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbIHaouKQA8
All Might: “Hahaha, if anything, it proves you didn’t do it on purpose. Someone who worries about how his friends see him wouldn’t do something to make them fear him.”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKFaWYRJwLP
Izuku: ‘Not on purpose.’
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡie0zregUud
All Might: “I’ll go check on Shinso. You cheer on your sister and prepare yourself for your next match.”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiYJXGbNjCf
Izuku: “R-Right. Thank you, All Might.”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXB4TWf2dNO
The boy waved goodbye to his idol turned mentor. When he was out of sight, Izuku sighed. Bringing his mind back together and rejecting those low rumblings within, he steps towards his classmates.
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH0XmZlx7tu
Mina: “Oh, Midoriya!”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfjWncoY4ci
The entire class snaps their heads towards the boy, who instantly freezes.
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwUSVRMWrsT
Izuku: “H-Hey-”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0CBw65Skla
Several of the more worried and curious classmates bolted towards him. The questions came one after the other. All of them, however, boiled down to a single concern. What did Izuku do to Shinso, and are they both okay?”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBcmTWcGx1U
Before Izuku could answer, Momo came to the front.
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ZGI8j3TeN
Momo: “Midoriya, you don’t have to answer if you don’t feel comfortable. We trust you.”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTAGMoztnbQ
Uraraka: “Yeah! But we would still like to know.”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMQIYjKCe9N
Denki: “For curiosity’s sake.”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXTee3lLuV5
Izuku: “T-Thanks e-everyone. Don’t worry, I’ll tell you what I know.”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE645m4czMa
And so Izuku explained what he discussed with his family. After hearing the story, they all sighed in relief.
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe2lz33GhWz
Ida: “I knew you were not someone who would do something like that on purpose. I’m glad I was not wrong.”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFxJW4IRgRh
Mina: “Yeah, looks like Bakugo was right.”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRpIdhTDKPn
Izuku: “Kacchan?”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ghhDQznKF
Kirishima: “Yeah, he actually defended you when we were worried. Crazy, huh?”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgzzFEUrC97
Izuku’s eyes widened and his heart lifted when he heard that. He looked past his friends to see Bakugo, who kept his gaze on the arena.
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtB2UP6dXsy
Izuku: ‘Is he… changing?’
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvXn0r5agTR
Denki: “Wait a minute!”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHwiwIljI4L
Thunder Boy held his hands up before getting everyone back to what’s really important.
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjY6gGipX6e
Denki: “Midoriya, are you telling us you spent days training with Yaoyorozu? At her house? Alone!?”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsSfngIHmAF
Izuku: “Y-Yes?”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLtV61sW0cm
Denki: “You lucky bas-”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV2lC7XsCwf
His words are cut short by a stab to the neck by Jiro’s ear jacks.
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqj57dzhvQY
Denki: “gah!”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ccnSGIg0P
Jiro: “Idiot.”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTlfF6p2Rkl
The group laughed, which slowly helped Izuku put himself back together. As for Momo, she tried to fight down the blush that graced her cheeks.
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4cJs3LrIJU
Momo: ‘Now that Kaminari mentioned it, that was rather bold of me. If Midoriya were a different type of boy, we may have-’
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡelxXltVr8E
Tokoyami: “The next match is starting.”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡId13hXbQt3
They look at Tokoyami, who was sitting down already, prepared to view the next match.
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGxR2s3cLMK
Kirishima: “Right! I don’t want to miss this!”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZTd0bJCRbu
The class went back to their seats, and Izuku joined them. To his surprise, he was in between two girls. Uraraka to his left and Momo to his right.
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUOUwMKwuw1
Knowing which voice would comment, he immediately shut it down and focused on the match instead.
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4RI2eWN5ND
Izuku: ‘Good luck, Kiri. I know you can do this.’
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfNl7UNNVdF
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7YLxGak0Qo
Present Mic: “And here we are, folks, MATCH THREE!! Will this one be just as brief as the last two? Let’s find out!”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBCED8FqnqE
Kiri steps to the stage and faces her opponent, Aoi Nogami.
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBjJx8vZ7x9
Present Mic: “On one side, we have the silent and incredibly strong girl from the department of heroics, class 1-A, Kiri Tae!!”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Dkog1YN7q
Present Mic: “Her opponent! The girl who stole victory with a single move during the obstacle race. The teleporter from the department of heroics, class 1-B, Aoi Nogami!”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCQEVjPIZAZ
Aoi: “Sad to say, this match will be quick too.”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB37iiKzXEp
Present Mic: “REAAAADYYYYY!?”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ7qPdLGLkp
Kiri didn’t respond; she got into a fighting position and readied herself.
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡheMTa2lS6g
Kiri: ‘Onii, watch me!’
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjKhGySBdbY
Present Mic: “START!”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtichp1YQCi
Instantly, Aoi teleports in front of Kiri and tries to touch her. Sensing danger, Kiri dodges right on time and dashes to the other side of the arena. The dash, however, was messy, tearing up the ground with every step.
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKn3UsGv1cW
Present Mic: “Oh, will we have a real fight here, folks!?”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZlStbbOJIJ
If Kiri could sweat, she would be drenched. She tightens her stance and narrows her gaze.
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2EChJGdrYw
Aoi: “So you figured me out, huh? Yeah, one touch is all I need. And I have a feeling, one day, I won’t even need to do that.”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkiQyaTLWOo
Again, Aoi was gone. Only thanks to her acute senses was Kiri able to dodge another palm strike from behind. But Aoi didn’t stop; she teleported everywhere Kiri went.
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa6vpLjDND9
But Kiri was too fast physically to be tagged by Aoi. At this point, this was nothing but a game of tag. One that could go on for hours.
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKanSufy0Ue
Present Mic: “Wow! I can barely keep up with these two! But this can’t go on forever; who will be the first to trip up!?”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTj28EtNTWa
He was right; someone had to take a risk if they wanted this to end. With that in mind, Aoi was the first to try something crazy. She wanted to wait to try this against one of the stronger physical fighters, like Bakugo or Todoroki.
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5TrAaXd6rh
But clearly, Kiri was a physical powerhouse as well.
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwhUPsdNbpn
Aoi: ‘Oh, well. Here goes nothing.’
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtxOIfkGnNU
The esper breaks off her assault and teleports to the edge of the arena. Kiri was confused for a second but quickly guessed that Aoi might finally be tired.
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzIPmvHRwve
So she goes on the offensive, dashing forward with fist raised, ready to knock the girl out.
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡufPI7OMCxF
But Aoi wasn’t tired; no, she was focusing. She placed her hands on the stage and willed her desire into existence. Veins emerged on her forehead just as Kiri was in front of her.
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoVveHa6vMb
But before the blow landed, both her and the stage disappeared.
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡghopkynHTz
Everyone: “HUUUUUH!”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1kDddYGGhw
Present Mic: “S-S-She teleported the entire stage high into the sky!!”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXYdN5mJ3oy
Kiri’s eyes widen as she sees the green grass feet away. She was… going to lose?
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ8ERsNmT4v
Kiri: ‘No!’
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDT8B4Qm6g8
Her brain went into overdrive, desperate for an answer to her problem. A split second later, the conclusion revealed itself. It was a side of her ability that she hasn’t used often.
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZitnkKwviM
Her ability is tactile telekinesis, the ability to use telekinesis on things she touches. It’s what gives Kiri her immense physical power and near-complete body control.
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVN7cq8ywr9
But aside from her body, what else is she always touching but never uses telekinesis on?
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7NDLdXlHQI
Kiri: “SMAASH!!”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPmtG09PmQY
Air.
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHBiMWPA3mG
An explosion of wind and smoke envelops the ground as Kiri is propelled into the air by the force of her attack. In fact, she kind of overshot it!
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBuGGPOP1B9
She shot straight through the stage, shattering it into several large pieces.
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaHYIZ6p0nl
Aoi: “Shoot!”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVvU23Y4xr8
Aoi teleports out of the way of the rumble. As for the spectators, they were saved when green energy enveloped the rumble and carefully lowered it onto the ground, away from the stunned Midnight.
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8wZF7OtDry
Present Mic: “Thank you, Tornado, for saving the spectators and Midnight!”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNbHh1Cr34G
Tatsumaki nods before sitting back down to watch the conclusion of this surprising match.
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzLuk8JnaK1
Present Mic: “I swear, kids these days are crazy! With no stage, it looks like this is a battle for the air. Whoever touches the ground first LOSES!!”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvrvibAOUn5
Seeing a chance to end this madness, Aoi senses the space where Kiri is at and teleports there. Kiri quickly rights herself and hits the air once again. The explosion of air was enough to blow Aoi back, disorienting her.
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzvIG4NGdXd
Seeing an opening, Kiri kicks off the air and tackles Aoi.
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6WbTlLqOxx
Aoi: “Ugh!”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2O9tdbgvQw
They’re both quickly heading to a meeting with the hard ground.
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcP2UVPw7Mk
Seeing this, Aoi teleports back up. But Kiri is still stuck to her like glue. This was it, the dead end.
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMDhOqQZzbL
She could keep teleporting, but Kiri wouldn’t let go, and Aoi can’t break out of the hold.
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFu1UFfdOE3
Kiri: “Give. Up.”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkCRXX6cuwK
Aoi closes her eyes and sighs.
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡriohUy4loP
Aoi: “Okay, you win.”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6HuD3JrNzh
With one last teleport, the two appear, standing on the grass.
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYmp1aAtACJ
Aoi: “I give.”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6GthO8jisO
Midnight: “N-Nogami surrenders! Tae advances to round two!”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgFpEHNFcwu
With the results in, Kiri lets go of Aoi.
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDPkweoJLq7
Aoi: “Man, you have a tight grip. Thanks for the match.”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8FAZmjqk56
Aoi holds out her hand, and Kiri smiles before taking it.
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZKtX9qST0J
Present Mic: “Such sportsmanship and utter destruction! We haven’t seen a battle like that since Blizzard versus Psykos! And I have a feeling it will only get better from here! So stay tuned! Right now, we need to repair the stage.”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqYlVrhKaq4
Aoi teleports back to her team while Kiri looks up at her classmates, specifically Izuku, and gives them the biggest smile she could give along with a peace sign.
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtVWTQWSLRG
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2I7CjeOVM5
Denki: “You want to fight that?!”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRjGZ1UBI3D
Kirishima nervously chuckles.
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPONMnQojpE
Kirishima: “I have a long way to go. But yeah, I still want to show how far I’ve come as a fighter.”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm118CkbqRC
Denki: “Bro, are you an M?”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJKWrdTGPTH
As the rest of his class discusses the short but explosive battle, Izuku keeps his gaze on Kiri. Unlike everyone else, he heard what was beyond that smile.
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcAmasqNgSS
Kiri: “Izu, you’re not the only dangerous one. Even if you can’t control it yet, you can practice with me. I can take it all and help you through it. I’m strong. I’ll prove it to you.”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ01yBJRYZXh
Izuku: ‘I know you’re strong, Kiri. But… ’
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYqDrsfYKRN
He shakes the depressing thoughts away. This is a festival, right? Everyone should be having fun.
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYIzr4QYGb0
Izuku: ‘Relax… focus on something else. Like how Kiri used her quirk. Or the abilities Nogami showed. Or how different and similar psychic quirks are. Or-’
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvEvB5ewc9k
Good thing Izuku always has a notebook at the ready, because his mind is finally focused on something fun. Quirk analysis.
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTq8bI0leSY
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWIKfLBjnI2
Back in the nurse’s office, a new breed was stirring. On the bed, his body snaps into its final state. No, this is just the first step. He can go so much higher.
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQd9lYjVthF
His eyes flutter open, releasing a soft purple and gold glow. But before anyone could notice, it settled back into its normal state.
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXxMacYH3az
But despite outward appearances, his eyes were different. They were better. All his senses were better. The world looked and felt different.
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx56Tjp9ioA
He was different. But why and how?
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ443ZgWvDFu
Shinso was finally awake, and he needed answers.
