--Friday, July 3, 2172
Clad in her recently upgraded armor, Momo was flying toward a building while various screens inside her helmet displayed the locations of nearby mannequins, along with real-time footage from drones. As she entered the building through one of the windows, Momo quickly located the mannequin, which resembled a crash test dummy, grabbed it, and flew out of the area.
Moving at the maximum speed her armor had calculated to avoid triggering the mannequin's sensors, Momo passed through three other buildings, collected more mannequins, and then dropped them on the ground before opening the back of her armor. From her exposed back, triangular metallic red drones began to emerge rapidly while she reviewed the three-dimensional map of the testing field. The map had been created by her armor using data from infiltrated cameras and satellite information.
As she plotted her next route, Momo suddenly lifted her head due to the sound of an unusually loud shockwave expanding. At that moment, she saw a dark figure falling from the sky at high speed before crashing into a cluster of buildings in the distance. Inevitably, Momo's beautiful eyes widened in surprise, and she quickly sealed the back of her armor while issuing a serious command.
"ARES! Deploy the drones and locate All Might!"
As screens displaying various viewpoints appeared in her helmet and the drones hurriedly carried the mannequins away, Momo opened the left gauntlet of her armor. From her exposed skin, a metallic red shield soon began to form, but at that instant, a chilling sensation ran across her skin, causing her to look to her left in panic.
"Die, hero!"
Turning her head, Momo saw an imposing, muscular man dressed in a blue suit, announcing his presence with a wicked smile as his right knee was mere centimeters from her face. With her heart pounding wildly, Momo activated her [Vital Reactor] at full throttle while her armor frantically fired up the repulsors to get her out of there.
But soon, Momo realized there was no way to dodge the Symbol of Peace. This time, he wasn't wearing his weights, and he definitely wasn't playing around like when he fought Midoriya and Bakugo. What stood before her was the most powerful hero of all, attacking her for real. Therefore, even though her mind, thanks to the [Vital Reactor], could barely keep up with his speed, her body and armor simply couldn't.
(Kai…)
Bracing for impact, Momo clenched her teeth and, almost unconsciously, thought of her beloved—her personal hero, who had been with her all her life and protected her from every harm. But as if her unconscious thought had summoned him, Momo saw Kai's figure practically materialize beside All Might with a smirk, delivering a ruthless punch to the hero's face, sending him flying.
"Focus on getting the mannequins out, Momo. I'll make sure this frustrated actor doesn't bother you." Landing in front of Momo with his back to her, Kai commented in a calm voice while slipping his left hand into his pocket.
"Leave it to me!"
As several buildings collapsed in a straight line, Momo, with her gaze fixed on her beloved's back, replied in a sweet voice overflowing with happiness, feeling herself falling hopelessly in love with Kai all over again. Though she had only ever loved one man in her life, Momo was utterly convinced that no woman could escape falling for a man like her Kai—someone strong and protective, capable of making her feel completely safe and at ease.
As Momo sped off, the destruction of buildings ceased in the distance, and through a thick cloud of dust, a tall, muscular silhouette emitting incredible pressure became visible. At the same time, to Kai's right, Salem appeared, standing about 1.7 meters tall, with dirty fur and looking a bit battered as electric arcs coursed through his body.
"You got your ass kicked pretty bad, Salem, haha." Kai remarked while placing his hand on Salem's massive neck, who growled back in clear dissatisfaction. At that moment, All Might emerged through the dust cloud and spoke in a mocking tone.
"A hero who doesn't care about the destruction they cause can't be called a good hero."
"Well, what can I say? I'm not cut out for the job. How about I line up everyone who complains in front of you so they can confront you themselves? I'm sure they'll have countless ways to do it since they've got the guts to complain." Kai replied playfully, matching All Might's tone while gently stroking Salem's fur, then adding as he glanced to his left.
"But since you're a 'villain' so concerned about destruction, how about we sit down and grab a coffee? That way, we won't destroy anything."
"I'll save the coffee for your funeral." All Might retorted in a malicious tone before appearing right in front of Kai with his fist poised to connect with the young man's face.
"Don't think you'll live that long."
Kai responded casually while tilting his head to the side, simultaneously drawing a black dagger from Salem's fur, its blade covered in intricate circuit-like patterns mixed with geometric runes. Without a shred of mercy, Kai aimed the dagger straight at the Symbol of Peace's trachea. All Might quickly tensed his neck, generating a small shockwave.
Though the dagger pierced through the shockwave, it slowed the strike just enough for the Symbol of Peace to step back and dodge. Upon landing, All Might eyed the calm young man holding a dagger in his right hand, with the giant blue-eyed panther growling threateningly by his side, and commented.
"You really have no mercy, Kai-shonen."
"You're breaking character."
Kai replied with amusement while pulling his left hand out of his pocket to grab another dagger from Salem's fur. All Might's smile twitched slightly, but he soon slipped back into his villain persona and spoke in a sinister tone.
"Then let's start with the weak!"
After speaking, All Might shot off toward the direction Momo had flown, but halfway there, he was intercepted by Kai, who appeared at his left and thrust a dagger toward his neck while commenting in a calm voice.
"If you want to touch her, you'll have to ask my permission first."
All Might swiftly blocked Kai's arm with his left forearm, then lifted it and spun in the air to deliver a strike to the young man's face. In response, Kai threw his left fist to intercept All Might's, initiating a rapid exchange of blows that triggered a quick succession of shockwaves, creating an ascending hurricane.
…
"I knew Saito was strong… but not this strong… He's matching All Might blow for blow…"
In the observation room, Mina commented with shock written all over her face, voicing the feelings of every student and teacher present. At that moment, Nezu, who was calmly sipping tea alongside Recovery Girl and Nemuri, remarked casually while glancing at the screen.
"They're only playing around. This is still far from what those two are capable of."
"How can someone so young have such power…?" Cementoss asked almost rhetorically, staring at the screen in disbelief. Nezu responded while lifting his teacup away from his lips.
"It's the result of a powerful quirk trained obsessively since childhood. Even Iron Palm, that training maniac, can't match his son's obsession."
"Though I advise against imitating him, young ones. That level of training can easily leave lifelong consequences." Recovery Girl soon added in a serious tone, calmly holding her teacup without seeming too surprised by the fight, as she had witnessed something even more absurd a few years ago. Nemuri then chimed in with a calm voice while watching Kai on the screens.
"Recovery Girl is right. Kai can do what he does today because he has advanced medical knowledge and recovers remarkably fast. But in his early years, I personally had to drag him out of the gym to stop him from overdoing it."
As the young students began to reflect deeply, Power Loader spoke in a somber tone, his gaze fixed on the screens.
"…Now I get why the principal went to such lengths to bring him here… He's truly worth it."
The other teachers couldn't help but nod at the words of the hero with the excavator helmet, but at that moment, something on the screens changed. Like a human missile, Kai was sent flying after a punch from All Might to his stomach, crashing hard into a building.
At that instant, Salem, who had been lazily licking his paws under orders from his master not to interfere, swiftly got up and dashed toward Kai as thick arcs of electricity crackled across his body.
"It's really tough keeping up with All Might's speed without using the Lightning Mantle…" Inside the destroyed building, Kai stood up calmly while muttering to himself, a smile forming on his face as his Conqueror's Haki erupted with force.
[Sage, let's see just how much my Haki has improved!] As black electric sparks flashed in the air around him, Kai commanded through his mental connection with the beautiful fairy flying nearby in [In] state.
[Understood, Master!] Sage replied swiftly in a serious tone as her wings began to glow in various colors.
In that instant, Kai shot into the sky like a bolt of lightning, soon spinning on himself before delivering a powerful descending kick to All Might, who was about to unleash a devastating strike toward Momo in the distance. The Symbol of Peace, forced to dodge, was sent crashing to the ground, creating a massive crater upon impact.
"Let's stretch a bit, All Might. I want to see how strong you are now."
Looking up, All Might found Kai holding two daggers, surrounded by thick, almost ghostly dark lightning, while speaking with a wide grin. At the same time, the giant panther landed beside him, ready to fight.
"I've been wanting to test myself a bit too, but the chance never came…" All Might replied with a smile, standing up and adding in a 'bloodthirsty' tone.
"SO DIE, HERO!!"
…
In the observation room, everyone watched with mouths agape at the super-speed battle between the Symbol of Peace and a young man with his pet. The power unleashed by each strike demolished buildings as if they were paper, while the ground trembled as if shaken by a magnitude 9 earthquake on the testing field.
As her gaze swept over the beautiful young girls in the room, who stared at her beloved Kai with eyes full of admiration, reverence, and even desire, Nemuri couldn't help but lick her lips seductively. In her mind, images emerged of her beloved taking each of those lovely girls and making them his in the middle of the room while she personally instructed them on how to please her man.
Feeling her calling as a hero and teacher clash head-on with her perversion and love for Kai, Nemuri began to lose herself in increasingly explicit fantasies as her thighs pressed together more tightly. But as her fantasy reached its peak, where she was about to help her Kai take the purity of a sexy pink-skinned girl, a shocked voice suddenly echoed in the room.
"Yaoyorozu got the mannequins out! She only has the two she's carrying left!!"
Turning to look, Nemuri noticed the voice came from Iida, who was pointing at the screen showing Momo dodging flying debris at high speed while racing toward the exit with two mannequins in her hands.
"Looks like I'll need to come up with a better exam format next time… they passed far too easily…" Nezu commented calmly while watching the screens, prompting the students to look at him with skeptical expressions.
Though it was true that Kai and Momo had overcome this hellish exam, it was by the skin of their teeth, as the screens tracking the mannequins confirmed. Out of 100 mannequins, 36 were destroyed in the battle between All Might and Kai. Of the 60 they managed to 'rescue,' Ectoplasm, under threat from Kai, barely saved 16, while Momo rescued the rest by moving everywhere and creating drones.
Moreover, while Kai was managing to hold his own against All Might with the help of his panther, it wasn't exactly easy for him. He was just barely keeping up and looked quite battered, and many of All Might's strikes hit the city, destroying most of the mannequins. Even two against one wasn't enough to prevent the Symbol of Peace from causing havoc.
"First, think of a better training field. If you force those two to do more, the destruction they'll cause won't be limited to this."
Nemuri, shaking off her lustful thoughts, quickly replied in a calm voice, prompting Nezu to fall into deep thought while the teachers and students stared with wide eyes. Even the slowest among them understood the message: the display Kai and Momo had shown, capable of shaming any hero—even those in the top 10—wasn't their full potential. They were holding back.
[Kai Saito & Momo Yaoyorozu, passed!]
