Chapter 137 - 6-8

Chapter 6.

The sports festival.

After the so called USJ Incident the UA gave the students some free days so they can relax after that horrible experience.

The free days had passed and now the class 1-a was chatting about what happened.

- "Hey! Have you seen the news?"- Asked Sero to Kirishima.

- "Yes, the news made a lot of noise about it"- Replied Kirishima.

- "Can you blame them? The UA was attacked."- Kaminari joined the conversation.

- "At least everything ended well"- Said Sero.

- "Yeah. By the way. Have you seen Aizawa-sensei?"- Kirishima asked.

- "No, so he was discharged to teach, but he hasn't arrived yet."- Kaminari answered.

- "Midoriya and Shinso have not arrived either."- Sero said.

- "I wonder where they are?"-

Principal's office.

Izuku and Shinso entered at the office. – "Do you wanted to see us?"- Shinso said.

To the surprise of both boys, Nezu was not alone, Aizawa was also in the office, looking at them suspiciously.

- "That's right, Aizawa has some questions to ask you."-

- "I think I know what he means."- Izuku whispered to Shinso.

- "During the USJ incident, the one who seems to be the one who directed all that, Tomura Shigaraki if I remember correctly, used a device similar to yours, what surprised me the most is that he did exactly the same as you, he transformed into a creature although more human. If it's too much of a coincidence that you two have a very similar quirk, that a villain also has something like that, that's very suspicious. I want to know, exactly, what is that power that you have, during the fight I tried to use my quirk against the villain, but it was useless." –

- "W-well, you see..." – Izuku tried to explain something, but he couldn't think of anything.

- "Don't worry, Midoriya-kun, it would be best to tell Aizawa the truth."- Nezu said.

- "What are you talking about? Do you know anything about this?"- Aizawa asked.

- "Calm down Aizawa-kun. Everything has an explanation."- Said Bokomon said as he took off his Nezu disguise.

- "Wha…? What happened?"-

- "As I said, everything has an explanation, if you promise to wait until we finish it will be easier to understand everything." –

- "Very well… I'm hearing."-

One explanation later…

- "Let me see if I understand... Nezu, you are actually a creature called Digimon, these Digimon are creatures made of data, but they are still alive. You two were chosen by some ancient and legendary Digimon to carry their power and become heroes. In the USJ those creatures that exploded in data were Digimon that in some way that Tomura Shigaraki was commanding and lastly, that Shigaraki also has a D-Scan, is that its name? but you don't know how he got one."-

- "Yeah... basically that's it."- Said Shinso.

- "This is a headache. You two really are problem childs."-

- "As you can understand, Aizawa-kun, this information is quite sensitive. That's why we ask you to please keep it a secret." –

Aizawa was silent for several seconds. – "Very well. This is more rational than telling others. We don't want to cause panic to break out."-

- "Thank you Aizawa-kun, I knew that you would understand reasons. We shouldn't tell this to the rest of the staff either, at least not right now."- Bokomon said returning to his Nezu disguise.

- "I understand. But what about that guy Shigaraki?"-

- "We really don't know much. Other than he has a D-Scan."- Nezu said.

- "I think if I have something to add."- Izuku said. – "As you know, when we transform..."- Izuku activates the data wheel in his hand. – "This data wheel appears in our hands, however Shigaraki's is different, darker, for lack of a better word. As if something was corrupting it."- The data wheel disappeared.

- "I see… Somehow Shigaraki got the D-Scan from the darkness and because of the evil within his heart the D-Scan became corrupted. That is my theory."- Nezu said. – "Looks like we have a new mission. We must find a way to get the D-Scan back from Shigaraki."-

- "Don't worry, Midoriya and I will do whatever it takes to retrieve the D-Scan of darkness."- Shinso said.

- "I will help too."- Aizawa said. – "This may not have anything to do with me, but since I'm involved in this secret, I'll help in any way I can."-

- "Thanks. Now the best thing would be for you to return to your classroom. Your students must be worried."-

Aizawa nodded. - "Let's go, problem children."- Aizawa, Izuku and Shinso leave the office to go to the classroom.

1-A classroom.

- "Seriously, where is Aizawa-sensei?!"- Uraraka said.

- "This is definitely an unprofessional attitude."- Iida said.

- "Shinso and Midoriya haven't arrived either."- Todoroki said.

Everyone wonders similar things, in that the door opens and the three missing people entered the classroom.

- "They arrived!"- Everyone yelled in unison.

- "Why this delay sensei?"- Iida asked.

- "The director needed to talk about some things, because of this and for this occasion I will not call your attention for not being seated in your places."- Aizawa said while everyone seated.

- "Now into a new subject, the fight isn't over yet"-

- "Fight?!"-

- "Don't tell me…"-

- "More villains?!"-

- "The UA sports festival is approaching"- Aizawa said calming everyone.

- "The sports festival? Wait. Villains just invaded us. Is it wise to organize a festival?"- Asked a student.

- "On the contrary. By holding the sports festival, we will be demonstrating the confidence we have in our security system. We will also have a security five times higher than in other years."- Aizawa started saying. – "Also, the sports festival is a great opportunity for everyone."-

- "True. There will be several professionals observing the event. Possibly to see potential young recruits."- Said Momo.

- "That's right. If a professional sees you at the event, you will have a promising future. You have this opportunity once a year. Three years in total. If you aspire to be heroes, this is an event you cannot fail at!"-

During midday break.

- "Man, I'm so pumped right now! If we can stand out and attract the attention of a professional, it will be a step towards success!"- Said Kirishima while some of his classmates were sharing his enthusiasm.

- "Incredible ... Everyone is very excited."- Said Izuku to herself.

- "Aren't you as well"- Asked Iida. – "We signed up here to become heroes, right? Of course, it is natural to get excited about this."-

- "You have a strange way to show your enthusiasm Iida"- Said Todoroki.

- "Deku-kun, Shinso-kun, Iida-kun, Todoroki-kun…" - Interrupted Uraraka. – "We will do our best at this festival. Do you understand?!"-

- "Wow, it looks like Uraraka just awakened her spirit."-

- "Now that I think about it ... I never asked her reasons for becoming a hero."- Thought Izuku.

- "Money?!"-

- "Y-yes. I'm sorry. My motivation seems impure compared to yours."-

- "Your motivation is just as valid as ours."- Said Todoroki

- "Yes. Everyone has their own motivations."- Said Shinso.

- "Exactly. It is also valid if your goal is to achieve a better quality of life."- Said Iida.

- "You see… My family owns a construction but right now there is no job, so we are kind of poor. That's why I will become a hero, so that my parents have a better life."-

- "Uaraka-san! That is so noble from your part!" – Iida said while clapping at her. Everyone else was saying similar things to her.

After this, the group headed to the cafeteria.

After school.

1-a classroom.

- "What's going on?!"- Uraraka said. She wanted to get out the classroom, but a horde of people was blocking the exit from the classroom.

- "We can't exit the classroom!"-

- "They are here to scout in the competence."- Said Bakugo in an unusual calm tone. – "They are searching for the class which survived to the villain invasion."

- "That's the neutral Kachan, you don't see him so often."- Said Izuku.

Bakugo then directed to the horde. - "Get out of the way, extras."-

- "HEY! I am from the class 1-b!"- Said a gray-haired guy. – "I heard you fought villains. I hope you don't feel arrogant."-

- "Wow, a declaration of war. I would have done the same thing."- Shinso thought.

- "Don't embarrass us!"-

After this declaration, Bakugo started making his way out of the classroom.

- "Wait a minute. These people hate us because of you."- Screamed Kirishima at him.

- "Make no mistake. When you are at the top, that is inevitable. The most important thing is to stay there."- Said Bakugo before leaving.

After this event everyone started leaving as well, and the two weeks of training started.

Izuku focused on improving his control with Agunimon.

Shinso for his part was training to catch up with Izuku. Preparing something specifically for him in case they clash.

Two weeks later.

Anteroom 1-a.

- "Everyone is ready? We leave in a few minutes!"- Said Izuku to the rest of his classmates.

- "Midoriya"- Shoto called his friend.

- "Yes?"-

- "We may be friends, but that doesn't mean I'll let you win."- Todoroki said with a challenging but friendly look.

- "I wouldn't ask for anything else."-

- "I think Todoroki is not the only one with those intentions."- Shinso approached.

- "I don't plan on losing to you either."- Izuku said.

- "Okay that's enough. It is time to enter the stadium."- Said Iida interrupting.

- * The UA sports festival has just started! * - Said Present Mic from the commentator booth. – * Entering first. The boys who faced the invasion of the Villains with steel temper! From the hero department! I present to you Class 1-a! *- Said while the class was exiting to the arena.

- "There's a lot of people!" – Said Izuku.

- "Will we be able to keep up with so many people watching us?"- Iida asked to himself.

- "I guess that's part of being heroes."- Shinso said.

- * Next, we have class 1-b also from the hero department! Groups c, d, and e of the department of general studies! Groups f, g, and h of the support and administrative department! * - Said Present Mic while the rest of the students entered the arena. – * As a judge we have the rated +18 heroine, Midnight! *-

- "Hi everyone. Now we will have the student give the athlete speech. Katsuki Bakugo!"- Midnight said.

- "Bakugo?"-

- "Maybe it's because he got first place on the entrance exam."- Said Sero.

Bakugo stepped in front of the microphone with a completely serious face. – "I promise... to be the one who comes out on top."-

This earned several boos from people and other students, as they thought the boy was being arrogant.

- "He's not being arrogant; the Kachan I know would have said that with a laugh. Still, he got all of us involved in this."– Izuku thought.

- "Okay. Let's go directly to the first test which will be ... An obstacle race!" – She said while a gate was opening. - "A race among the eleven classes. The route to follow is the perimeter of the stadium. Four kilometers in total! Only the first 42 places will advance to the next round!"-

Everyone got ready to run.

- "START!"- Screamed Midnight. Everyone started running… only to get stuck in the gates. Suddenly, a blast of ice froze everyone's feet. It was Todoroki, who took the lead.

- "That might work with the rest of the classes. But…"- In that the boy turns and observes that all his classmates avoid the ice. – "I knew it."-

Suddenly, three zero-points appeared in front of everyone.

- "So, this is what they faced in the entrance exam." - Said Todoroki while creating some ice. – "I wish they had made something more difficult. Since my damn old man is watching."- After this he completely froze the three robots. After Todoroki passed from the bottom the robots collapsed preventing the passage of others.

- * With a single attack, Todoroki, Class 1-a, breaks through and blocks the way for the others. Incredible! * - Said Present Mic.

From the fallen robots a body emerged from them it was Kirishima.

- "That Todoroki! If it hadn't been me, that person would have died."-

Eijiro Kirishima.

Quirk: Hardening.

Eijiro's Quirk gives him the power to harden and sharpen any or all parts of his body, causing his flesh to become jagged and rock-like.

Then another person emerged from the robots.

- "That guy! If it hadn't been me, other person would have died."-

Tetsutetsu Tetsutetsu.

Quirk: Steel.

Tetsutetsu's Quirk allows him to turn his skin into steel. This power grants Tetsutetsu both augmented defensive abilities to withstand attacks, as well as the augmented strength of his unarmed physical attacks.

Suddenly an explosion was heard, it was Bakugo who used his explosions to pass above the robots. He was followed by Sero, Tokoyami, Shinso (Transformed in Strabimon) and Izuku (Transformed in Flamemon).

Hanta Sero.

Quirk: Tape.

Hanta's Quirk is that he has tape dispenser-like organs in his elbows, from which he can shoot long cellophane tape-like strips; he can also retract them. They appear to be somewhat sturdier than regular tape.

Fumikage Tokoyami.

Quirk: Dark Shadow.

Fumikage's Quirk allows him to manifest a sentient shadow monster from his body that he can materialize and contract freely.

- *If you cannot go below, go above. *- Said Present Mic.

Then an even bigger explosion destroyed the rest of the robots. It was Momo with a cannon she created. Thanks to her everyone was able to pass the robots but quickly find themselves in the second obstacle. It was a cliff with various ropes connecting various pillars of earth.

- *If you fall, you are disqualified. * -

Todoroki was already near the end of this obstacle. Tsuyu used her quirk to move in the ropes. Iida did the same but trying to maintain the equilibrium. Bakugo used his explosions to cross the cliff by flying, Izuku and Shinso used their enhanced abilities to jump from column to column. The rest managed as best they could.

Todoroki was already in the way to the last obstacle when he stopped.

- *Ladies and gentlemen. The third obstacle, a minefield like in the Rambo movies. But don't worry, the power of the mines is low enough to only stun. * -

- "It's an obstacle for the one that is in first place."- Said Todoroki to himself.

- "Not for me!" – Screamed Bakugo while passing Todoroki, he was using his explosions to fly above the minefield. – "You chose the wrong people to declare a war."-

Todoroki reached Bakugo and started fighting him for the first place, but suddenly a big explosion was heard from the beginning of the third obstacle and Izuku could be seen flying on the sky passing both boys.

Suddenly someone fell on top of Bakugo's shoulders, it was Shinso. – "Thanks for the boost."- Shinso used Bakugo's body to propel himself away.

- " Damn bastards! Who said you could go ahead of me!" – Charged Bakugo.

Todoroki froze the field and started running towards them. – "This will open the way for those behind. But this is not the time to worry about that." –

When they trio managed to reach Izkui, he a flame toss activate a mine which exploded and managed to give him the necessary boost to overtake the trio and at the same time momentarily stun Bakugo, Shinso and Todoroki.

He then landed at the end of the minefield and started running the fastest he could with Shinso, Todoroki and Bakugo in his back.

- * Now, with you the winner of the first test is ...Izuku Midoriya!" – Said Present Mic when Izuku entered the arena.

When Izuku entered, the entire state erupted into applause and shouts of excitement. At Izuku's house, Inko was crying with happiness. While Shigaraki, he just limited himself to observing the event while smiling evilly.

One after another they began to reach the goal.

- "Deku-kun you managed to get first. You are awesome!"- Congratulated Uraraka

- "Thanks."- He said to her.

- "This is just the first test; the next one you won't be so lucky."- Shinso joined the conversation.

- "Maybe you'll win next one, but I'll be the winner at the end."- Todoroki joined.

- "We're done. Here are the results!"- Said Midnight while in the screen appeared all the 42 places.

AN: I will only put the places that matter to us.

1. Izuku Midoriya.

2. Hitoshi Shinso.

3. Shoto Todoroki

4. Katsuki Bakugo.

6. Tenya Iida.

16. Ochako Uraraka.

- "What a pity for those who did not pass, but we must continue."- Said Midnight. – "Now, the second event will be ... A cavalry battle!"- She said while a picture of All -Might being carried by Thirteen, Present Mic and Eraserhead was shown. - "Teams can be two to four people. You can freely choose your team. The rules are the same as a normal cavalry battle only with a difference. The value of your team's points will be based on the result of the obstacle race."- She said as everyone's score was displayed on the screen. – "The last place is worth 5 points, the penultimate is worth 10 points and so on. Except for first place ... which is worth a total of ten million."-

When Izuku heard that he could feel everyone glaring at him.

- "You have fifteen minutes to form your teams. The points will be the total of the sum of the team members. The rider must wear the band that will indicate the points of each team. In addition, the captured bands should be placed on the neck. Very well. Start building your teams."- Midnight ended.

- "Bakugo let's make a team!"- A lot of people started asking Bakugo to join his team.

- "I don't know your Quirks get lost!"- He said.

- "Bakugo let's team up!"- Said Kirishima. - "You want to be the rider, right? In that case you will need someone to withstand your explosive impacts. That will be me! Together we will be invincible, and we will take the ten million."- He said earning a smirk from Bakugo.

- "Just as I supposed, everyone is avoiding me!"- Izuku thought.

- "Midoriya."- Izuku turns to see who called him and meets Shoji. – "Can I team up with you?"-

- "Shoji-kun!? Are you sure?"-

- "You're strong and smart, I'm sure you'll manage to get through to the next round."-

- "T-Thank you. Now we need more people to join us."-

- "In that case let me be part of your team, gero." - Tsuyu approached the boys.

- "A-Asui-san? Do you want to team up with us?"-

- "I already told you to call me Tsuyu-chan and yes, I want to team up with you."-

- "Perfect, we just need one more person."-

- "You! The first place! Let's team up."- Suddenly a pink-haired girl reached Izumi.

- "W-what?! Who are you?!"-

- "I'm Mei Hatsume, I want to team up with you to show al my babies to the world."

- "Babies? You mean your inventions."-

- "All my inventions are my babies! wow, what is this? "- Mei said as she took Izuku's D-Scan without him being able to help it. – "Wow! I had never seen anything like this!"-

- "H-Hey! I need that!"-

- "This is a very interesting baby, what is this?"-

Izuku took his D-Scan from Mei's hands. - "I-It's called D-Scan and it helps me with my quirk. My quirk allows me to transform into different creatures, however I can't decide what to transform into, this device helps me decide what to transform into."- Izuku explained. – "It's not exactly the truth but it's not a lie either."-

- "Interesting, so can I join your team?"-

- "S-Sure. Anyway, we need a team member."- In that Izuku stops to observe his team. – "Hmm… Shoji could be... Tsuyu could help us in... Hatsume's inventions would be useful for..." - After some thought, Izuku comes up with a good plan. – "Guys, I know what to do."-

Uraraka was looking for Izuku, she wanted to team up with him. in that he manages to spot Izuku and quickly approaches him. – "De…"- In that she notices that Izuku is talking to Shoji, Tsuyu and another girl that she doesn't recognize. – "Looks like his team is complete."-

- "Are you looking for a team?"- The girl turned to see who was talking to her, it was Shinso, who was being accompanied by Tokoyami and a boy with silver hair. – "We still need a member."- The girl smiles at this.

- "The fifteen minutes are up. So, let's get started!"- Said Midnight.

- *Wake up Eraserhead! The teams are complete. *-Said Present Mic while waking up Aizawa.

- "Interesting teams."- Aizawa simply said.

In the arena all the teams were prepared to start.

- "Here it comes."- Said Izuku. – "Are you ready?"-

- "Yes"- Shoji, the frontal horse.

- "Hehehe"- Laughed Hatsume, left horse.

- "Yes, gero."- Said Tsuyu, right horse.

- "I'm counting on you"- Izuku ended then he saw the rest of the team, specially three of them.

Bakugo's team was formed by Kirishima, Mina and Sero. Bakugo was the rider, Kirishima was the frontal horse and Mina, and Sero were at the sides. They had a total of 665 points.

Todoroki's team was formed by Iida, Momo and Denki. Todoroki was the rider; Iida was the frontal horse and Momo, and Denki were at the sides. They had a total of 610 points.

Finally, Shinso's team was formed by Tokoyami, Uraraka and Tetsutetsu. He was the rider; Tetsutetsu was the frontal horse and Uraraka, and Tokoyami were at the sides. They had a total of 620 points.

- * Here we go. Let the countdown begin. *-

THREE.

- "Our objective…"- Said Bakugo.

TWO.

- "… is only one."- Said Todoroki

ONE.

- "Be ready."- Said Shinso.

START.

Chapter 7.

Ten million or nothing.

- * Here we go. Let the countdown begin. *-

THREE.

- "Our objective…"- Said Bakugo.

TWO.

- "… is only one."- Said Todoroki

ONE.

- "Be ready."- Said Shinso.

START.

Suddenly every team started charging against Izuku's team.

- "Just like Midoriya said, we are the target of all teams."- Shoji said.

- "Get ready, you know what to do!"- Izuku, transformed into Flamemon, said while he activated a jetpack, courtesy of Mei, and then start flying.

- "I don't think so."- Said Jiro while using her jacks to try and grab the 10m points, however…

- "Midoriya, at your six!"- Shoji, thanks to his quirk he could feel Jiro's jacks nearby.

Thanks to this, Izuku was able to block the jacks from taking the 10 million. – "Perfect, thanks to your enhanced senses we can cover our blind spots. You're awsome, Shoji-kun."-

- "Thanks."-

- "DEKU!"- Suddenly Bakugo appeared above them and was about to steal the 10M points.

Luckily Izuku managed to grab Bakugo's arms. – "Sorry Kachan, but I can't let you take these points."- He said before kicking Bakugo away.

Luckily for Bakugo, he was saved by Sero's tape.

- "We are about to land." – Said Tsuyu.

The team landed safely thanks to Mei's inventions.

- "Yes! Thanks to Hatsume's inventions we can land safely"- Said Izuku.

- "Damn it. Come on."- Said Jiro to her team.

- "Wait. Where is your headband?"- Asked Sato.

- "What?!"- She said while at the distance Shinso was adding another Headband to his collection.

- "On the right, another team!"- Shoji warned.

Turning around, Izuku could see a team approaching them. – "Get ready, you know what to do. Flame Toss!" – Izuku quickly launches a fireball, but not directly at the opposing team, the fireball hits the ground which momentarily stuns the opposing team. – "Asui-san, now!"-

- "I already told you to call me Tsuyu-chan."- Tsuyu said and then used her tongue to steal the points from the enemy team which was still stunned by Izuku's attack. She then passed the band she stole from the other team to Izuku.

- "Good, with this we can ensure we go to the next round if the 10 million are stolen."-

Suddenly, three other teams closed in on them.

- "Oh no, hold on tight!"- Izuku activated the Jetpack and managed to escape. However, upon landing, one of Hatsume's inventions broke down.

- "My Baby!"- Screamed Hatsume.

- "Sorry, but at least we escape."- Said Izuku.

- *It was an interesting first half. Let's see the scores of the teams! *- Said Present Mic when the screen showed the scores. – *Wait a minute…Besides the Midoriya team, the only teams with points are the Shinso team, the Monoma team and the Todoroki team!"- The screen showed the scores.

1. Team Midoriya: 10000990 Points.

2. Team Shinso: 1935 Points.

3. Team Monoma: 1190 Points.

4. Team Todoroki: 615 Points.

The rest of the teams had 0 points.

Everyone was speechless on how they lost their ponts.

- "You all got so focused on the 10 million, neglecting your own bands. Giving others free rein to steal them without you noticing."- Said Shinso.

Bakugo was pissed. Someone stole his points, and he is seeing who, it was Neito Monomo, from class b.

- "It seems that you are all words."- Said while Bakugo was getting angrier. – "You bark but you don't bite. And so, you want to be number one. Poor you." –

- "That's it" – Bakugo thought. He made an explosion with his hands. – "Kirishima! Before Deku, we will destroy these extras!"- He said in a furious tone.

Meanwhile Izuku was facing a special team.

- "I knew you were coming for us. It was a matter of time. Todoroki-kun!"-

- "Soon. Your headband will be mine"- Todoroki simply said.

- "You will stay in the attempt."-

Suddenly a lot of teams surrounded both of Todoroki and Izuku's teams.

- "Kaminari" - Said Todoroki.

- "Hatsume-san, quick. Do you have something to cover us from electricity?"-

- "On it."-

- "Finally! Indiscriminated discharge. 1.3 million volts!" – He said while unleashing an enormous quantity of electricity. Todoroki used a blanket to cover the rest of his team. Hatsume took out a blanket similar to Momo's to cover her team from the , the rest of the teams were paralyzed by the attack, Todoroki used this and froze everyone, except Izumi's team.

- "No! The jetpack!"- Izuku said when the jetpack busted in smoke. – "I guess we don't have other choice rather than fight."-

- "Todoroki-kun. Prepare yourself"- Said Iida.

- "Iida?"-

- "After this I will stop being useful. So, make sure you grab them."- Iida said while preparing his technique. – "Torque Over: Recipro Burst!"- From one second to the next, Izuku's headband disappears. Todoroki's team, now behind his back, had the headband. – "I've been saving this move for the time to face you Midoriya!"- However, the team failed to notice the smiles from Izuku and his team.

- *WOW! In a twist of events, Todoroki's team took the 10 million. *- Said Present Mic. But then…

- "That was an impressive move Iida-kun. I never expected it. But I'm sorry to tell you it didn't work out."- Izuku said as he turned the headband around his neck, showing the 10 million points.

- "What?!"- Todoroki was shocked. He then saw the headband in his hand, and it was one with 600 points. It was a different headband. – "How?"-

- "We planned this from the beginning, we decided to take some team's points and exchange them with the 10 million, so we would keep the 10 million safe, while everyone tried to steal the wrong bang."-

- *Incredible! Midoriya's team tricked everyone into chasing the wrong headband. * -Said Present Mic.

- "They created a secondary strategy in case their original strategy failed. Very smart."- Added Aizawa.

- "Come on. We need that Headband."- Ordered Todoroki and his team charged at Midoriya's.

- *TIME'S OUT *- Screamed Present Mic. At the same time Bakugo managed to take all of Monoma's Headbands.

- *Very well! Let's check the final Scores. *- Said Present Mic. - *First we have Midoriya's team. Who managed to keep the 10 million points from the beginning! Achieving a total of 10000325 points. *-

Izuku's entire team was happy to keep 10 million points and come in first place.

- * In second place we have Shinso's team. Those with an incredible strategy managed to obtain 1935 points. *-

All the team was smiling proudly.

- * In third place we have Todoroki's team with a total of 1215 points. *-

All the team sighed of relief.

- * Finally. In fourth place we have Bakugo's team. With a total of 1190 points."-

The entire team was relieved to at least get through ... except Bakugo who was cursing at the top of his lungs.

- "I knew you'd get to keep the 10 million."- Shinso said to Izuku.

- "It was an incredible strategy; I didn't see it coming."- Todoroki said.

- "T-Thanks, how about we go get something to eat?"-

After lunch and a break, all the qualifiers were in the stadium.

- *Okay! Let's begin with the third event. It would be a tournament of fighting one against one! *-

- "The matches will be decided at Random. Pay attention to the screen."- Said Midnight then the names appeared in the screen.

1. Izuku Midoriya VS Denki Kaminari.

2. Tenya Iida VS Mei Hatsume.

3. Fumikage Tokoyami VS Momo Yaoyorozu.

4. Bakugo Katsuki VS Ochako Uraraka.

5. Hitoshi Shinso VS Mezo Shoji.

6. Mina Ashido VS Tsuyu Asui.

7. Eijiro Kirishima vs Tetsutetsu Tetsutetsu.

8. Shoto Todoroki VS Hanta Sero.

- *For the participants, while we finish the combat arena, you can use your free time to rest or prepare strategies. * -

-* Very well! The moment that everyone has been waiting for has arrived! *- Said Present Mic. - * Let's start with the first match. For one side, he got first place in the obstacle course. He managed to keep the first place in the cavalry battle. Let's see how far this talented boy can go. From the hero department ... Izuku Midoriya! *- Present Mic said while Izuku was stepping inside the arena.

- * On the other side we have the most electrifying boy, Denki Kaminari! *- Present Mic said while Kaminari was stepping inside the arena.

- "The rules are simple. If the opponent leaves the ring, he becomes unconscious or surrenders. Victory will be for the one who remains standing. In case of severe injuries Recovery Girl will take care of healing you. So, go with everything!"- Said Midnight. – "Both competitors are ready?"- Kaminari and Izuku nodded. – "In that case… BEGIN!"-

- "I'm sorry Midoriya, but this is how far you get in the tournament!"- Kaminari said as he started to create electricity. – "Indiscriminated discharge. 1.3 million volts!"

- "Evolution!"- Izuku quickly transforms into Flamemon. – "Baby Salamander!"- The fire aura from the attack manages to cover Izuku from Kaminari's electricity attack. When the attack ends, Izuku prepares for another, however all he saw was Kaminari standing on the platform.

- "Hey!"- Kaminari said giving a thumbs up. His brain has been overcharged. Izuku takes advantage of this to simply push him off the platform easily.

- "Kaminari-kun is off the platform ... the winner is Midoriya-kun. He advances to the second round!"-

- * Well... it was a short fight, but it doesn't matter, please give a big round of applause! *-

- *Let's continue with the first round. First, from the Heroes department. Tenya Iida! * - Iida stepped into the platform. – *And his opponent, from the support department, Mei Hatsume! *-

The fitgh between Iida and Hatsume was an… interesting fight. Basically, Hatsume used Iida as a guinea pig to promote all her inventions. After 10 minutes, at the end of her presentation, she left the platform by herself, giving the victory to Iida.

- *Ladies and gentlemen. Let's continue with the next match! Who will win?! Will be the explosive guy? From the hero department. Katsuki Bakugo! Or it will be the gravity girl? My personal favorite, from the hero department. Ochako Uraraka! *- Said Present Mic.

Bakugo and Uraraka stepped inside the platform, Uraraka was remembering the conversation she had with Izuku and her other friends before her match.

Flashback.

- "I have a plan that can help you defeat Kachan."- Said Izuku.

- "That's great! With that you can win!"- Said Iida.

- "Thanks, Deku-kun… But I will be fine"- Uraraka said. – "I must stop depending on others to win! Right now, we are all rivals. That's why ... I will defeat Bakugo single-handedly. See you in the final." - Uraraka said giving Izuku and the rest thumbs up.

Flashback end.

- "Okay. Both contestants ready. BEGIN!"- Screamed Midnight.

Uraraka quickly charged towards Bakugo in an attempt to make him float with her Quirk. However, Bakugo fought back with an explosion which knocked the girl back.

- "Although the attack comes, it is very difficult to dodge it."- Thought Uraraka.

- "You better give up."- Said Bakugo. Suddenly, in front of him there was movement, Bakugo quickly attacked with another explosion, however, all he attacked was Uraraka's uniform shirt. The real Uraraka appeared behind Bakugo, hidden in the smoke from Bakugo's explosions. However, Bakugo quickly responded with another blast, this time hitting his target.

Uraraka quickly stood up, however, Bakugo appeared in front of her and released an explosion against her. – "You are slow"- Said Bakugo. Managing to resist the explosion, Uraraka charged again against Bakugo, however, the only thing she found was another explosion. The situation began to repeat itself several times in a row.

- "I can't keep watching this."- Said a pro hero. – "Hey! Do you really want to be a hero?! If you see that the difference in power is so great, just take her out of the ring!"- That hero screamed to Bakugo.

- "Yes! She is just a girl!"- Said another hero.

Suddenly, several boos, directed at Bakugo, began to sound.

- *The boos have started, to be honest ... I feel bad too ... Ouch. *- Said Present Mic, to later be beaten by Aizawa.

- *Does he seem to you to be playing with her? Was the one who said that a professional? If that's the case, you better get out of here, go home and find a new profession. He knows that his rival came here on her own merits. That is why he takes so many precautions. He is not underestimating her. *- After these words, everyone fell silent.

- "Thank you, Bakugo. Thank you for not letting your guard down."- Said Uraraka. At that moment everyone looked up to the sky ... to see a lot of debris in the air.

- "She always kept her distance from Bakugo. She always kept a low profile and kept Bakugo's attention on the ground while she prepared her weapons."- Todoroki said, from the beginning, he realized Uraraka's plan.

- "I'm going to win!"- Uraraka yelled as she dropped the debris onto Bakugo. However, with a gigantic explosion, Bakugo destroyed all the debris.

- "That was close"- Muttered Bakugo.

After this attack, which also hit Uraraka, she collapsed to the ground.

- "Uraraka-chan can't continue! Bakugo-kun is the winner!"- Said Midnight.

- *Bakugo goes to the next round. We will now give a few minutes while the platform is repaired, then we'll continue with the next fight! * - Said Present Mic.

The next battle was Momo vs Tokoyami and it was another short fight. Tokoyami used Dark Shadow to quickly push Momo out of the platform before the girl could create anything more than a shield.

- * Alright, we start with the second half of the first round. On one side we have a boy whose looks remind me of Eraserhead. Hitoshi Shinso. *- Shinso stepped inse the platform. – * On the other side we have a guy with multiple arms, with that you can stand out a lot, Mezo Shoji!"-

- "Okay. Both contestants ready. BEGIN!"- Screamed Midnight.

However, before Shinso transforms, Shoji raises his arm. – "I give up. I've been analyzing the match and I don't think I can beat you."-

- "Shoji-kun gives up. Shinso-kun is the winner!"- Midnight said.

The next match is Tsuyu vs Mina, Mina kept Tsuyu on the defensive for most of the match, however Tsuyu manages to catch Mina off guard and manages to push her off the platform and get the victory.

The next match was Tetsutetsu vs Kirishima. The battle was the definition of close combat. They both hit each other hard, with their Quirks activated. Such was the ferocity that they both fell unconscious at the same time. The tiebreaker was a contest of strength between the two, the winner was Kirishima.

Todoroki was heading to the platform, waiting for his moment to enter, however halfway he meets someone.

- "Shoto…"-

- "Endeavor…"-

- "You are doing well; however, you have come in third place in the past events. It's not good enough. If your mother hadn't forbidden me to continue training you, you could have come in first place in all the events."-

- "Don't bring my mother into this, it's your fault I don't train with you anymore. Besides, I'm not doing this to make you proud."-

- "I see you have changed."-

- "It's thanks to my friends."-

- "Friends? Let me give you some advice Shoto. Friends won't get you to the top. They are a waste of time unless they work for you."-

Hearing this, Shoto gets enraged. Without saying anything else Shoto leaves Endeavor behind.

- *Very good! Now we go with the last fight of the first round. On the one hand we have a boy with a strange face. Hanta Sero! *- Sero stepped inside the platform. - *On the other hand, we have a very cold boy, but not in personality, Shoto Todoroki! *-

- "Okay. Both contestants ready. BEGIN!"- Screamed Midnight.

- "Well, even though I feel like I can't beat him..."- Sero said, suddenly using his tape he caught Todoroki, who didn't put up any resistance, his mind was somewhere else. – "I don't want to lose either!"- With that, he starts dragging Todoroki off the platform.

- "Friends won't get you to the top. They are a waste of time unless they work for you"- Those words still echoed in Todoroki's head, making him angrier. At that, a blast of ice shot out from his body, hitting Sero. The ice that was generated from that blast would be so large that it would cover half of the stadium, luckily no one was injured.

- "Don't you think you exaggerated a bit?"- Sero said, which brought Todoroki out of his thoughts.

Realizing what he did, a regretful expression appears on Todoroki's face.

- "S-Sero-kun… Can you continue?"- Midnight asked she was half frozen by the attack.

- "You're kidding? Of course not!"-

- "S-Sero-kun gives up. Todoroki-kun is the winner…"-

- * W-well. With that we finished the first round. We'll take a break while we remove the ice from the arena. * - Present Mic said.

In that Todoroki runs out of the arena. Izuku can notice something. – "He is afraid."- Izuku quickly gets up to talk to his friend. Among the public someone notices the same.

In some corridor inside the stadium Todoroki hits one of the walls in anger. – "Dammit! Once again, I let my problems affect someone else!"-

- "Todoroki-kun… are you okay?"-

Shoto turns and sees Izuku with a worried face.

- "Midoriya... yes, don't worry, I just need to think for a moment."-

- "Your father again, right?"-

- "I… Yes… Look, I appreciate what you're trying to do, but I need to be alone for a few moments."-

- "I understand... if you need to talk, you know where I am."- Izuku leaves.

Shoto is silent for a few seconds, at that...

- "Shoto…"-

Shoto turns to see and is surprised to see who spoke to him. She is a woman with long white hair. – "Mother…"-

Several minutes later.

Rei was furious, but she shouldn't focus on that, her son needs her right now. – "I see... so that's what he said."-

- "I know I shouldn't listen to him, and I don't do things for him anymore, but inside I still want him to recognize me."-

- "You still feel like you don't deserve to be happy. If your father doesn't recognize you, you feel useless. Tell me one thing... what do you want to become?"-

- "I want to be a hero..."-

- "I know that, but what kind of hero do you want to be?"-

- "I… I don't know…"-

- "You don't know, or you don't remember? I remember that when you were younger, we used to see All Might on television. You told me you wanted to be a hero like him. Do you remember what I used to tell you?"-

- "It's okay to become what I want to be."-

Rei smiles at her son. - "You don't have to let your father control you, you have me, Fuyumi, Natsuo and all your friends. We are all here for you. Become the hero you wish to be."-

Shoto couldn't take it anymore, he started to cry while his mother hugged him.

- "Okay, let it all go, let it out."-

Several minutes later, Shoto returns to the rest of his class?

- "Todoroki-kun, are you feeling okay?"- Izuku asked.

Shoto smiles slightly, but that smile was more genuine than any other he's ever done. - "Yeah, actually I feel pretty good."-

Endeavor was in some hallway looking for Shoto, however who he meets is Rei, a very angry Rei.

- "What are you doing here?"- Endeavor asked.

- "I came to see my son compete."-

- "And what do you want?"-

- "I talked to Shoto and he told me that you told him."-

- "I just gave him some advice to fulfill his dream."-

- "His dream or yours?"- Endeavor raised an eyebrow. – "You and your stupid goal of surpassing All Might is causing damage to your son!"-

- "So, what do you know? You are not a hero."-

- "No, I'm not, but it's my family you're harming, and I can have an opinion on that." Endeavor tried to reply, but Rei didn't let him. – "Toya died trying to be like you. Fuyumi suffered from depression from seeing our family break up, Natsuo hates you, and would have left home if it hadn't been for me, and Shoto has a trauma because of you, if it hadn't been for me, his brother and sister, and his friends, he would be already admitted to a damn psychiatrist!"-

In that Rei points to the public. – "They see you as a hero, but do you know how I see you? As one of the worst villains, for everything you did to my family."- Rei couldn't take it anymore and tears began to come out of her eyes. Endeavor had his back to her and didn't reply. – "I don't know why I'm telling you these things; you don't care about anything other than beating All Might. Maybe if you realized your mistakes and tried to fix them, maybe then you would have a chance to surpass All Might."- In that Rei leaves, leaving Endeavor alone.

Several minutes passed, Endeavor fell to his knees, tears in his eyes, his wife's words showed him how horrible he really had always been.

Chapter 8.

Victory at the sport festival.

- *Ladies and gentlemen! It is time to start the second round. On one side we have Izuku Midoriya. On the other, Tenya Iida. Who will win?! *- Present Mic said while Izuku and Iida stepped inside the platform.

- "Okay. Both contestants ready. BEGIN!"- Screamed Midnight.

Both of them came out at great speed, Izuku transforming into Flamemon while Iida used his quirk to increase his speed, and then each one threw a blow which hit the other. And so it went, it was a speed fight, both opponents running around and throwing punches to try to hit their opponent. But in that... – "Flame Toss"- Izuku exclaimed as he launched a fireball towards Iida, but this boy managed to take a long jump to stay on top of Izuku.

- "Recipro Burst!" - Iida exclaimed as blue flames shot out of the tubes on his legs and then tried to kick the boy, but Izuku quickly managed to duck. – "I only have about 10 seconds before my engines stop!" – Iida thought during the fight, before landing on the ground and jumping back – "I have to win in that time!" – Izuku received a strong kick from Iida making his face hit the ground.

- "Flame Tail!" - Izuku exclaimed trying to hit Iida, but Iida jumped again and grabbed Izuku by the hair, then run dragging him to the edge of the platform.

- "There are still 8 seconds left. I'll throw it out of bounds" – Those were Iida's thoughts as he saw the limit come faster and faster, but just at that moment.

Izuku quickly detransforms, which makes the hair Iida was holding disappear, taking advantage of this he proceeds to kick Iida's back multiple times and make him fall off the platform.

- "I was trying to be careful with your Recipro Burst, Iida-kun" – Izuku spoke now standing in the middle of the platform – "Even so, I couldn't dodge it, but I was able to fight back" –

- "Iida-kun is off limits! Midoriya-kun is the winner!" - Midnight announced.

The next fight was Tokoyami vs Bakugo, the fight was short, despite his best attempts, Tokoyami was outclassed by Bakugo, thanks to Bakugo's explosions, Dark Shadow was unable to do anything which led Tokoyami to give up.

Bakugo wasn't paying attention to Midnight's announcement, his attention was focused on Izuku, who was sitting with the rest of the class. - "You're going down Deku!"-

- "It looks like my next fight will be against Kachan. I will not be intimidated by him. I'm not the same as before."- Izuku thought.

The next fight is Shinso vs Tsuyu. The frog girl gave her best effort, even managing to land a few hits on Shinso, however Shinso eventually got the better of her and managed to knock her off the platform.

Kirishima blocks another punch from Todoroki, who was with his ice armor technique activated.

- "Not bad ice boy. But it's not enough to defeat my defense."- Kirishima begins to counterattack with multiple punches which begin to break Todoroki's ice armor.

Kirishima would take a punch to Todoroki's right cheek, but to his surprise the boy managed to withstand the attack without moving. – "Who said I need to break your defense?"- Todoroki takes Kirishima's arm with which he hit him and suddenly Kirisima is covered with a layer of ice, completely immobilizing him. – "I knew I couldn't freeze you with a ranged attack, I had to lure you into close combat in order to catch you off guard."- Todoroki said.

- "Kirishima-kun is immobilized, Todoroki-kun advances to the semifinals!"- Midnight said.

- *With this fight we finish the second round. We will give a ten-minute rest and then we will continue with the semifinals. *- Announced Present Mic

Izuku is on his way to his fight against Bakugo, as he headed to the platform several memories came to his mind.

- "You are useless, Deku!"-

- "You're just a Deku with no quirk."-

- "Despite being quirkless, do you pretend to be a hero? Deku."-

- "By the way Deku. If you want to become a hero so much, there is a way to achieve it. Throw yourself off the roof and pray that in your next life you'll be born with a quirk."-

Izuku clenched his fist at this last memory. – "All this time I let myself be intimidated by him. But now things are different. This time I will defeat Kac... no, I will defeat Bakugo!"- Izuku's face changes into one of seriousness but full of confidence. – "Evolution!"- And he transforms into Flamemon. – "I don't need Agunimon to beat you, Bakugo!"-

Meanwhile with Bakugo, his mind was remembering things as well.

- "Looks like Midoriya doesn't have a quirk."-

- "Y-You are very cruel Kachan. Y-You made him cry; I-I won't let you get away with this."-

- "It's been my dream since I was little and besides, if I don't try, I'll never know."-

Bakugo clenched his fist at this last memory. – "All this time he's been lying to me. He believes he is above everyone to hide his quirk."- Bakugo's expression changes to one of fury. – "I'm going to put him in his place. That damn Deku!"-

- *Very good! We start with the first match of the semifinals. On one side we have from the department of heroes, Izuku Midoriya! * - Present Mic said as Izuku entered the platform. - *On the other side, another boy from the hero department, Katsuki Bakugo! *- Present Mic said as Bakugo entered the platform.

- "Both contestants ready?"- Midnight asked. She didn't get any answer, Bakugo and Izuku just look at each other. Midnight decided to take this as a yes. – "Okay... Begin!"-

Without thinking twice, both boys charge at each other, once close both throw a punch which hits each other's cheek. Izuku's punch was stronger, so Bakugo takes a few steps back.

That doesn't stop him though and Bakugo charges at Izuku again, this time setting up an explosion. Izuku seeing this prepare his own attack. – "Flame Toss!"- He said as Bakugo unleashes an explosion against him, both attacks collide.

The smoke would rise but Bakugo would not wait and would use his explosions to quickly approach Izuku.

Izuku dodges an explosion from Bakugo and quickly lands a kick to Bakugo's stomach, followed by a punch to Bakugo's face to send him flying.

Bakugo recovers and again charges at Izuku. Izuku avoids Bakugo's explosion again. – "Flame Tail!"- Izuku tries to attack with his tail, however Bakugo uses his explosions to dodge the attack by going over Izuku, before landing an explosion on Izuku's back.

Izuku recovers again and between him and Bakugo they begin to exchange blows. Explosions and fire shot out as they both attacked each other.

In one of these, Bakugo manages to hit Izuku in the stomach. – "That's what you deserve, you fucking liar!"-

Izuku punches back to Bakugo. - "Liar? What are you talking about?"-

Bakugo punches Izuku in the face again. - "You have a quirk and you never said anything! Do you think you are above everyone?!"-

Izuku intercepts another blow from Bakugo. - "Of course not. What do I gain by hiding my quirk? Quite the contrary. My life was shit for not having a quirk." –

- "And shit! Then why the fuck did you never tell me you had a quirk?!"-

Izuku dodges an explosion from Bakugo. – "You're wrong, don't hide anything from you. It's true, I didn't have a quirk"-

Bakugo dodges another kick from Izuku. – "LIAR!"- Saying this, Bakugo makes a gigantic explosion against Izuku, which makes Izuku fly away. – "You are a fucking liar!"- Bakugo charges at Izuku again.

- "I think I can't talk to him. I'll have to defeat him; I'll talk to him later."- Izuku braces himself and manages to dodge a flurry of explosions from Bakugo, quickly positioning himself behind him. – "Flame Toss!"- Izuku manages to hit a fireball on Bakugo's back.

Bakugo quickly recomposes himself and this time he heads towards Izuku with greater speed than before. – "The longer the fight goes on, the stronger his explosions will be, I have to finish this quickly."- - "Noble Heart!"- Izuku hits Bakugo before he could attack him with an explosion, however Bakugo takes advantage of the proximity to grab Izuku by the arm and stamp him on the ground.

Bakugo rises with his explosions and starts spinning around using his explosions. Izuku prepares to fight back. – "Howitzer Impact! / Baby Salamander!"- Both attacks hit creating a gigantic explosion and a smoke screen.

When the smoke disappeared, Bakugo and Izuku are seen struggling against each other. – "Did you ever think of telling me?"-

- "I already told you! I never hide anything from you."-

- "Then how? How do you have a quirk?"-

- "It's complicated... it's not something I can explain right now..."-

- "So, when?"-

- "When the sports festival is over, I'll tell you everything."-

Bakugo was silent for several seconds. – "F*ck!"- In that release the grip against Izuku. And starts walking off the platform. – "You better keep your promise..."- After these words, Bakugo gets off the platform and leaves.

The entire stadium falls silent. The silence continues until Midnight announces the winner. – "B-Bakugo-kun has left the platform... The winner is Midoriya-kun!"-

The stadium erupted in applause, but Izuku was deep in thought. – "What just happened?"-

Shinso avoids a blast of ice, Todoroki suddenly appears and with a fist of ice hits him in the face and leaves him near the edge of the platform. Todoroki starts ice surfing ready to knock Shinso off the platform.

- "Darkness hand!"-

Shinso counters the attack with his own, thanks to his claws he manages to destroy Todoroki's ice fist. Todoroki quickly creates a wall of ice to keep Shinso away from him. – "Ice armor!"- Todoroki screams before covering himself with ice and breaking the ice wall to start exchanging blows with Shinso.

- "Light Kick!" - Shinso attacks Todoroki with a kick, which is blocked by Todoroki, however the armor started to crack a bit. However, Todoroki takes advantage of this contact to freeze Shinso's leg.

Shinso takes a distance and with his claws begins to break the ice on his leg. However, Todoroki takes advantage of this to attack again with several blows. This knocks Shinso down but doesn't knock him off the platform. Shinso struggles to his feet, his leg still frozen but still mobile.

- "I need to wait for an opening in his attack."- In that, both boys exchange blows again. – "Now!"- Shinso dodges Todoroki's blow, the latter being exposed. – "Darkness Hand!"- Shinso's attack manages to break Todoroki's ice armor. – "Light Kick!"- To then finish with a kick that leaves Todoroki unconscious.

- "Todoroki-kun is unconscious! Shinso-kun is the winner!"- Midnight announced.

- "So, the final is Shinso vs Midoriya. This will be exciting!" – Kaminari said.

- "Two of the strongest in our class, this is going to be incredible."- Said Kirishima.

- "They both have a similar quirk. This battle can be anyone's."- Iida said. In that, his phone begins to vibrate, when he picks it up, he sees that his mother is calling him. – "Excuse me, I have to take this call."-

- "I'd better go too; I have to prepare for my fight."- Izuku said while leaving.

- "Hey, who do you think will win?"- Sero asked.

- "I think Deku-kun will win! The two may have similar strength, but Deku-kun still has that transformation he used in the USJ that he hasn't used in this tournament yet."- Uraraka answered.

- "True, but maybe Shinso has something prepared for that."- Kaminari said.

- "We just have to see."-

At the infirmary.

Shoto wakes up and to his surprise Endeavor is there. – "What are you doing here? Are you coming to scold me for losing? Are you here to remind me of the failure that I am?"-

Endeavor stayed silent, letting his son vent. – "No."-

- "So, what are you coming for?"-

- "I come to congratulate you and apologize. You did very well Shoto... Also, I think I deserve all the insults that all of you have said to me, I have not been a good person with any of you, all because of my stupid ambition to beat All Might."-

Shoto was speechless, he didn't expect his father to apologize.

- "My ambition has done nothing but harm all of you, my family, I never realized how truly important you are until Rei told me my truths to my face, it hurt me... but I had to hear it."-

- "So, it was mom…"-

- "So yes, I'm sorry, I know that an apology is not enough to repair everything, but I hope that this is the beginning of a new relationship between the family. A better one."-

Shoto was silent for a few seconds, then he gets up and goes to the door. - "You said it yourself, an apology is not enough to repair everything... But at least it's a start."- Shoto opens the door, ready to head back to the rest of his class. – "I can't forgive you for what you did, but I can give you another chance. Everyone deserves a second chance... even you. Just make sure you do the right thing this time."- After this, Shoto leaves.

- "Don't worry. I will…"-

- *Ladies and gentlemen, the moment everyone has been waiting for, the final of the sports festival. This is a very interesting fight, both competitors have a very similar quirk! On one side, we have Izuku Midoriya! *- Izuku stepped inside the platform. – *On the other side we have Hitoshi Shinso! *- Shinso stepped inside the platform.

- "Both contestants ready?"- Midnight asked, Izuku and Shinso just nodded. – "In that case… BEGIN!"-

- "EVOLUTION!"- Both screamed at the unison, transforming into Flamemon and Strabimon. After transforming, both charge against the other. – "Light Kick! / Flame Tail!" - Both attacks collide forming a gust of wind that separates them.

Quickly recovering, Izuku prepares another attack. – "Flame Toss!" - Quickly launching a fireball, however it is dodged by Shinso, which quickly approaches him with a prepared attack. – "Darkness hand!" - Izuku seeing this attack coming quickly prepares to counterattack. – "Baby Salamander!"- Using his fire aura he manages to make Shinso cancel his attack and move back so as not to be hit by the fire.

Once Shinso lands, both rivals look into each other's eyes.

- "It's very fast, I don't think I'm fast enough to hit it with one of my attacks..."- Izuku thought.

- "Their attacks are stronger than mine, I have to avoid them at all costs and find the right moment to attack..."- Shinso thought. – "Still... I want him to use that form that he used in USJ."-

After several seconds, both charge against the other again. – "Noble Heart!"- Izuku tried to attack but unfortunately Shinso managed to dodge the attack and prepare his own. – "Light Kick!"- This time the intended attack hit Izuku, sending him flying.

Izuku recovers in the air and prepares another attack. – "Flame Toss!"- However, to Shinso's surprise, the fireball would not hit him, it would hit the ground behind him. Shinso is confused, but inadvertently that attack was a distraction for the real attack. – "Noble Heart!"- Izuku tackles Shinso while covered in fire. However, Shinso doesn't back down and hits Izuku with his own attack. – "Light Kick!"- The kick sends Izuku crashing to the ground.

Izuku gets up with some difficulty while Shinsou takes a few steps back. – "Come on. I know this is not all your power."- Shinso said.

- "Do you mean...?"-

- "Yes, use that form you used at USJ. Use Agunimon!"-

- "You're sure? Agunimon is much more powerful than Flamemon and Strabimon, I want our fight to be fair."-

- "Yes, if I don't know my limits, how can I keep improving?"-

Izuku returns to his human form. - "Very well…"- The Data Wheel appears in Izuku's left hand; the D-Scan makes contact with it. – "Execute!"- Once the D-Scan is separated from the data, it begins to surround Izuku. – "Spirit Evolution!"- After several seconds, Agunimon appears in Izuku's place. – "Agunimon!"-

- "It's the form he used at USJ!"- Uraraka said.

- "It seems that Midoriya is willing to end this match now."- Todoroki said.

- "This is getting more and more exciting."- Kaminari said.

- "Get ready Shinso-kun. This time I will go with all my power."- Izuku said.

- "I wouldn't want anything less."- Shinso replied.

Both would charge against the other again. – "Darkness ha…!"- Shinso tries to attack, however Izuku is fast and hits him in the stomach with a strong punch. – "Gatling Burst!"- Izuku performs a series of rapid-fire punches and to finish. – "Pyro Punch!"- Unleashes a blazing dragon from his Burning Wrists.

After this combination of attacks, Shinso falls to the ground near the edge of the platform and returns to his human form, he tries to get up, but he can't.

- "It's over… Midnight-san, you can end the battle."- Midnight was about to announce the winner but something stopped her.

- "No, I'm not defeated yet."- Shinso said as he tried to get up.

- "Shinjo-kun, you don't have to overdo yourself, it's okay to accept defeat."-

- "It's not that, I'll accept defeat, but when I can't go on anymore!"- In that, his D-Scan began to shine and Shinso feels that his strength returns – "I can still go on."- At that, the data wheel appears in his left hand. – "Execute!"- When the D-Scan makes contact with the data, it begins to surround Shinso. – "Spirit Evolution!"-

Inside the data.

Shinso's clothes were stored inside the D-Scan, in that several screens appeared around Shinso.

Each screen shows what appears to be a piece of grey armor. Soon each screen joins to form two screens, one behind Shinso and one in front, each screen showing the full armor, the front on the front screen and the back on the back screen.

In that, both screens begin to approach Shinso, once they make contact with him, Shinso begins to change.

Several seconds later, the transformation is complete.

The data disappeared and instead of Shinso there was... – "Lobomon!"- a Digimon with humanoid form that wears white clothes and on it a grayish armor with purple touches. On his neck he seems to wear a kind of purple scarf with darker violet stripes, the helmet he wears only covers the upper part of his head, leaving part of his mouth and a bit of his blonde hair visible. From his wrists and forearms he can pull out two very bright light swords called "Licht Schwert". - "Ready for round two?"-

Izuku smiled. – "Of course!"-

In the stands of class A, everyone is surprised by the events.

- "W-What?! Shinso just transformed into something different!"- Uraraka said.

- "Looks like things just got even again."- Todoroki said. – "Lobomon... apparently that is the name of that transformation, apparently Midoriya's transformation is called Agunimon... what do those names mean?"-

- "I said it and I keep saying it, this is getting better and better!"- Kaminari said. – "Man, I wish I could do that!"-

Wasting no time, both competitors charged at each other. When they were close their fists collided. After this, an exchange of blows began. – "Pyro Punch!"- Izuku attacked again, however, this time Shinso was prepared. Jumping to avoid the attack and preparing his own. – "Running Meteor!"- Shinso makes a diving kick, when the kick hits Izuku, he then makes a slash with one of his swords.

Izuku backs away from the slash, quickly recovering and preparing to strike back. – "Pyro Darts!"- Izuku fires some small bits of fire at his target from his gauntlet. Shinso begins to dodge the attacks, however the last of these manages to hit him.

Recovering from the attack Shinso uses his swords and crosses them to form an "X" – "Intense Light Ball"- From the swords a ball of light shoots towards Izuku.

- "Crimson Knuckle!"- Izuku performs a punch that destroys the ball of light. However, Shinso appears behind him. – "Lobo Kendo: Licht Victor Alpha!"- With his right sword he makes a cut charged with light energy against Izuku's back. – "Lobo Kendo: Licht Victor Beta!"- He does the same but this time with his left sword. – "Lobo Kendo: Licht Victor Upsilon!"- Lastly, he does the same but with both swords.

Izuku crashes to the ground after the attacks, with difficulty he gets up.

Shinso lands on his feet in front of him, however he can feel his energy running low. – "I'm still not used to this form; my energy is about to run out. It's time to end this.". 

Izuku also notices this. – "His energy is going to run out. This will be the last attack."-

Both boys charge one last time. – "Pyro Punch! / Light Clothing!" - Both use their final attacks, Izuku prepares a fire punch, while Shinso surrounds himself with Light energy and then passes it to his swords, united in a single dual sword. When both are close, the attacks collide, creating a gigantic smoke screen at the same time that it creates a large gust of air that makes everyone cover themselves.

- "What power!"- Kaminari said.

- "Who won?"- Uraraka said.

- "I don't know… but we're about to find out."- Todoroki said while the smoke disappeared.

When the smoke cleared, it was seen that both boys returned to their human form. Only that Shinso was on the ground while Izuku was standing...barely.

After several seconds of silence Midnight decided to announce the winner. - "Shinso-kun can't continue... Midoriya-kun is the winner!"- After the announcement, people started clapping and cheering, that was an incredible match.

*And now all the events have been completed! This year's winner for 1st years at U.A is…! From the hero course. Izuku Midoriya! *-

And that was over, this fight… it was over.

- "All 1st year U.A Sports Festival events are over!" –Midnight announcement – "And now, we will begin with the awards ceremony!" – And the whole stadium cheered again, while the fireworks went out again to give more importance to the event. And in that, a large pedestal came out of the ground, which had 3 columns, one higher than the other and one had its own number, those columns were the places for the 1st, 2nd and 3rd place.

The third place is occupied by one person, Shoto Todoroki. – "The third place was supposed to be occupied by three people, but Bakugo-kun refused that."- Midnight explained.

- "As if I'm going to share the position with Snowflake there!"- Bakugo screamed.

In 2nd place, Shinso whit a smile in his face. He was proud of himself.

While in 1st place, there was Izuku, who was very nervous.

- "Now, we are going to award the medals!" –Midnight said calling everyone's attention – "The awarding of medals will of course be by this man…." –

- "HAHAHAHAHAHA" - That laugh, caught the attention of many at this time, and many already knew who he was.

At that, from the roof of the stadium, the No.1 hero took a great leap to be in the air for a couple of seconds – "I have brought the medals here!" – And then fall and land on the ground.

At that, Midnight approached the hero with the medals – "Now, All Might, hand out the medals starting with 3rd place" –

At that, they both approached Todoroki - "Young Todoroki, congratulations" –said the hero, placing the bronze medals on both girls. – "I'm sure you are strong, keep it that way, and never give up." –

- "Yes sensei!"- Todoroki said with a smile, the rest of his family applauding him from the stands.

Then they approached Bakugo – "Young Shinso congratulations… you may be in 2nd place but remember that…" –

- "Yes, I know" –said Shinso cutting All Might – "Believe me, this is not over yet, I can still be stronger." –

- "That's the spirit, Young Shinso!" – Said the hero at the moment of putting the silver medal on the purple haired boy.

And finally, they reached the 1st place, where Izuku was, who was scratching the back of his head with some nerves. – "Young Midoriya, you've done a great job getting here. Take this medal, as a symbol of your own effort."- Izuku just nodded with a smile and some tears in his eyes.

At that, All Might looked back at where the others were - "Well, they were the winners this time! But listen up everyone! Anyone here could have ended up in these places. It's just as… competing! Improve each other! And climb even higher! The Next Generation of Heroes is definitely sprouting! So, I just have one more thing to say! Everyone, say it with me! " –

- "PLUS ULTRA!"-

With this, the sports festival came to an end.

Meanwhile at the villains' hideout.

Shigaraki was watching the whole event; it was quite entertaining. – "So, he won... and there seems to be another successor... fire and light... interesting."-

At that, "Sensei" began to speak. - "You're right. By the way Tomura, are you ready?"-

- "Yes, we just need someone specific, and we can finally start."-

- "In that case, I leave it in your hands."-

- "Don't worry sensei, everything will go according to plan."-
