Here they stand, on the rooftop across from one another. Izuku and Kaoru were in their hero costumes, ready for the battle at hand. But unlike Izuku’s armor, Kaoru’s costume looks like the school uniform if it were stylish and had a medium-sized cape.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBpIvINZwpo
Fubuki: “Please don’t damage the roof. That’s not an expense I want to pay right now.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf83L2Zuy92
Izuku glances up at his sisters, who are observing in the sky.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIsqJfWX4ir
Tatsumaki: “A nice additional challenge.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo40QsHpNAP
Izuku: ‘Right, because we won’t be able to throw rubble at each other. Have to be creative.’
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhtwRzNjQlP
Kaoru: “No problem. So, are you ready?”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5kp847MNcs
Izuku: “Yes.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqGjvsSRchn
Tatsumaki: “Tournament rules. If you are knocked off the roof, you lose.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaWC6tovVFq
Fubuki: “Start.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM3zKJ255gX
Immediately, Izuku felt a pulse in his mind. A gentle knock showing him that Fubuki will be bugging him throughout this whole fight.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSORBg1OyRX
Thanks to that, he only barely prevented himself from being blown off the roof by a psychic push.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMHEqdrIe6d
Fubuki: “While I occasionally poke your mind, try to do the same with Kaoru. This will help with your focus and your ability to mentally affect others during a fight without… you know.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡveK1YuLu0N
Izuku: “R-Right!”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9SsrJUbN8U
Izuku: ‘Easier said than done, though.’
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMh0mk7SsSL
Due to the circumstances, Izuku had little choice but to play defensively. Kaoru was throwing air bullets and trying her best to literally trip Izuku up.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4UtjByWcHi
But he dodged the bullets and righted himself before he face-planted. All the while, he kept eye contact with Kaoru, who was smiling at her apparent domination of the fight. That’s until-
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsZdjFnfs4R
Izuku: “Behind you.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIjQdjjyW2G
Hearing Izuku’s voice in her head, Kaoru stopped her assault for a moment, enough for the emerald esper to-
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEgySAzgKXg
Pulse.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtTZxz15v4o
Teleport to the wrong location, above Kaoru.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGg1tGAgvs0
Kaoru: “What the-”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIliBh4kFIo
Izuku collapses on her, causing them to both fall to the ground in a… somewhat scandalous position.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeWuNkgFrhU
Kaoru: “W-What are you… g-get off!”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbVKBUCdIPP
Izuku: “S-Sor-”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT0DXvvd7lD
Unable to finish, he was blasted into the air and again-
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyG7QUu2eLn
Pulse.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3kDYXVsqFF
His mind is assaulted with a familiar knock. Focus broken, he was unable to stop Kaoru from binding his body with a telekinetic hold.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLSiNlcO8VU
Sensing an immediate ring out, Izuku tried to gather enough to break the binding. But he couldn’t focus because of the pulse.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPt8ZUFN8Hy
No… it was strangely weak before that. Deep down, he knows why but refuses to acknowledge the cause. So instead, he shifts tactics.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGG2fYlO8cJ
He waits for Kaoru to fling him towards a ring out, that one moment when her psychic hold disappears, letting gravity do the rest.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4EneW6PpYl
When the moment came, he forced himself to teleport back to the starting position. But when he reemerged, he felt nauseous.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH9rwaQipuB
Holding his mouth, he pushed the sensation down-
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbBzrFsBxHr
Pulse.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2vmudk0o5o
Izuku: “Ugh.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVYi1jyHhfQ
He placed a weak psychic barrier up to protect himself from Kaoru’s telekinetic push. But the effort was enough to force him to one knee. Seeing his weakened state, Kaoru only pushed harder while walking towards him.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlSFMzWXr8w
Karou: “Wow, this is easier than I thought. What’s wrong? Do you think you can beat me without trying or something? Or is the handicap that bad?”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaVf1pR90ni
Fubuki: “Maybe she’s right, I’ll sto-”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSbr398O77c
Izuku: “No!”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOOeJhblH9q
His sister’s eyes widen as her brother’s voice come through a bit distorted.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJIjqxPKFkH
Izuku: “Don’t hold back, I can keep going. I will overcome this.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsa8F1F3QOM
The middle child takes a look at Tatsumaki before making a decision. Her face was blank but focused on the match. She couldn’t help but wonder how Tatsumaki would feel if Izuku lost.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdrOxOfv97v
Fubuki: ‘Would she be disappointed with him too?’
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWRehJucxqE
Not wanting to test that out, she decided to lie. This will be the last one.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLsUC6tnupp
Fubuki: “… Very well.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ84Yb3q5EY
Pulse.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsOSmiXPCmy
And the shield buckles further.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD4ptwNL56B
Izuku: “T-Thank you.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡytX9C3sQst
His mind is a mess, confused and unfocused, making the use of his quirk overwhelmingly difficult.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAUwBcIKVJK
But that doesn’t mean he can’t use it. He just has to be a bit reckless. He breathes in and reverses his psychic shield’s properties.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC1lGdPGlhT
Screw finesse, that takes too much focus. So even if it causes veins to pop on his head and blood to flow out his nose, he will go full force. Just in the opposite direction.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡySARvc201u
Instead of repelling, the shield draws everything in. Combined with Kaoru’s pushing, it produced enough force to pull the girl towards Izuku.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4xqkiFP3Mq
Drawn in by her and Izuku’s psychic power, Kaoru was yanked forward with a bewildered face. Right into Izuku’s waiting arms.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL97a4tBvuk
Within range, Izuku bear-hugged her. It doesn’t take much thought to squeeze with his enhanced strength.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNw1VvXd3rc
Kaoru: “Gugh!”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbdrF8mwgYB
Izuku: “Give… up!”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqHT3h2T0I4
Oh, she wants to. The combined pressure of the psychic compression and super bear hug would break the spine of a normal human. But this is Kaoru, the one who will someday surpass Tatsumaki. This is only the first step!
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjeuubF7mKm
So she uses all her strength to push outward, against the crushing force. Her body lights up pinkish red, and Izuku is forced to close his eyes, but he doesn’t let go.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH85TcfZKyp
Instead, his focus is improving over time without being assaulted by the pulses. But his psychic strength is still not on Kaoru’s level right now; his grip is slowly being loosened.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8YgNIDjPOZ
And if she gets loose or another pulse comes in, Izuku fears that he’ll lose.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA12DcVdEBq
But he has to win to prove to himself that he can succeed without relying on that part of himself. But despite that desire, he is forced to use a tactic dangerously close to The First.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtKwHDD6m9Q
He slams his head into Kaoru and sacrifices some of the psychic power behind the crushing force. All to use a mental attack, a command.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKqjmTEnBMc
Izuku: “Sleep!”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmGqfgclJYV
A second later, Kaoru’s eyes roll back as she falls unconscious. But her psychic power doesn’t just disappear, no, it explodes outwards as the crushing force was now weak enough to overpower.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUWnxVZvFjr
Kaoru falls to the ground, while Izuku is pushed off the roof. Exhausted, the boy was unable to properly fly up or teleport back to safety.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeXXx0m3hcL
Before he can panic, green energy caught him and gently brought him back to the roof.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBTZ2JPjy5g
Tatsumaki and Fubuki descend to the ground, worry etched on their faces. Fubuki gets out some tissues and wipes the blood off of Izuku.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4mnodmsU9d
Tatsumaki: “Are you alright?”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK0rPYQEJCi
Izuku: “I-I’m fine. You don’t have to worry.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7BnryVgR1m
The eldest looks at her brother and then at the sleeping Kaoru.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrocWefExxe
Tatsumaki: “You were knocked off the roof, but you knocked Kaoru out before that. I guess we can count it as a tie.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Nz9x248eu
Fubuki: “And that’s fine.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFu6O50pq1p
The eldest couldn’t help but glance at Izuku and narrow her eyes ever so slightly.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1SOaF5LvGo
Tatsumaki: “… I suppose.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeNqYutDCRb
Again, she looks back toward Kaoru and replays the fight in her mind. Then she recounts all the battles Izuku has had up until this point and the abilities he has learned. Sighing, she goes to her sitting brother and kneels before him.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ0ImwwQ8dK
She looks deep into his eyes, trying to figure out the puzzle behind them.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ayGvIE1Hx
Izuku: “T-Tatsu?”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsVb2IwKZiG
Fubuki: “What is it? Is something wrong with Izu?”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Ouh0J6deD
Tatsumaki: “That’s what I want to know.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYj5KioTUuf
Izuku: “W-What are you t-talking about?”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6GaA77FSKi
Tatsumaki: “I know Fubuki was messing with your head, but… I know you’re stronger than this. You weren’t holding back, right?”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpxQ5wJhFxa
Izuku: “N-No, of course not!”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnECVQ2bdL0
Tatsumaki: “Then what’s wrong?
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡidv1hB6Lzg
Before Izuku could even think of revealing everything, Fubuki got up and glared at her big sister.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYr24dzTCAR
Fubuki: “There’s nothing wrong with Izu. He was distracted with my mental probing, nothing more.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM8vBbn8JbU
Tatsumaki: “And? I know he can handle that. Besides, he didn’t use his psi sword or transmutation. He shouldn’t have struggled this much.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzRSXuL0TtG
Fubuki: “That’s unreasonable; you expect too much.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxMTZztOZJM
Tatsumaki: “And you expect too little.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP78DKmQ2us
A slip of mixed frustration escapes from the building chamber within the younger.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZNinteGYcR
Fubuki: “Stop trying to push your high expectations on Izu!”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEW2kZSQW2g
Matching the energy given, Tatsumaki gets up and floats above Fubuki.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFZpoBESnfw
Tatsumaki: “My expectations are not high! You’re the one who doesn’t seem to have faith in our brother! He has to become stronger!”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ44hfZiMZuE
As things took an unexpected and heated turn, Izuku went from confused to worried and finally landed on upset.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4YvyCUdTzu
Izuku: “Enough!”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMV9HPFEpcq
The sisters stop, and their glares soften for a moment before turning to their precious little brother.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdJomFEpl91
Izuku: “Please, don’t argue over me. Fubuki is right. I-I was just distracted by the mental pulses. Nothing to worry about; I am going to get stronger. Trust me. Now, apologize.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlyiDWYm31j
The two sisters turn to each other, an apology on their lips. But whether due to pride or insecurity, they are unable to say it.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVQOmhWNm9c
Tatsumaki & Fubuki: “Hmph!”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPm43wizu3y
Izuku: ‘I’ve never seen them argue like this. And of course, it’s because of me… ’
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZkRKaDnGph
Again, he thinks about telling them everything he told Kiri. She accepted him; they will too, surely. The question is timing.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMbabAuNcGn
As the trio cools down, they hear some shuffling behind them.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8fA2tkirC8
Kaoru: “Ugh, what happened? Did I lose?”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0VZuiEhYP9
Tatsumaki: “Tie.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUxGDg1BPmb
Fubuki: “You knocked Izuku off the roof while he knocked you out.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1pJ20vX0N0
Kaoru: “But how? The last thing I remember was the bear hug, and then… I felt sleepy.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj4s25toYgL
Izuku: “I-I-I’m sorry! I didn’t want to lose, so I tried something invasive a-and… mentally told your body it was time to sleep.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqd81kvUljr
Fubuki: ‘A mental command? Something else to try.’
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCQ8d6UCLzn
Kaoru: “Whoa, that’s kind of… scary.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0806dmsQhB
Tatsumaki: “Relax, Izu would never abuse it. Besides, you have a psychic quirk; you should be able to build defenses against it over time.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjhZZp0QSZ9
Kaoru: “Great! When do we start?”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRhIx0ICQAm
Fubuki: “Later, that’s enough psychic training for one day.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4JOy7kGSt6
Tatsumaki: “Of course you’d say that.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfsiqtkHAy7
Fubuki ignored that whispered comment and walked towards the exit.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj0cxiPhglq
Fubuki: “Right now, we should go inside and see if Emory is awake too. I don’t want to neglect her.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfT4o5THA0t
Kaoru and Tatsumaki follow Fubuki while Izuku pulls himself up.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrh8Mqn1TUE
Izuku: “Fubuki, I have a favor to ask.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoicDmkd0ez
The middle child turns back, letting Tatsu and Kaoru enter the building first.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9HMtaAC3gL
Fubuki: “Yes?”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCjK5Y6qzRT
Izuku: “I-I might be wrong, but don’t internships allow for students to spend the night at the agency? I would like to do that so I can start training as soon as possible.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgRRrmPM5cy
Fubuki: “… Alright, just don’t work yourself too hard. You’re still young, Izu; don’t beat yourself up if you don’t meet expectations right away.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRMAz3qYpBm
Izuku: “I won’t, but the villains-”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2aXYUV8akx
Fubuki: “Me and Tatsu will deal with them. You don’t have to worry about them. Okay?”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRkH6zJCesU
Izuku: “… I understand.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNVDGF4aJo5
Fubuki: “Good, now call Mom and tell her you’re staying over.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAuFsGCuujc
After nodding, the boy takes out his phone and calls Inko. She quickly picks it up.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAkM9eR20g4
Inko: “Hello, Izu! How are you and Fubuki?”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTQ1UK2x7Uk
Fubuki: “Tell her I said hi.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsqVMG1em11
Izuku: “We’re fine, and Fubuki says hi.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgcvM6Ae4Xo
Inko: “Aww, tell her I said hi too. So, why are you calling?”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWv9W4FURGu
Izuku: “I’m planning on staying the night with Fubuki’s agency. I wanted to let you know.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnbIoE0Bjv7
Inko: “Oh, that? Toshi told me that was a possibility. Have fun!”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTAa7ujO240
A blink.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6jCGdrUeqV
Another blink?
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡReh2QX8kZL
Inko: “Izuku?”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcb1Qd5MYmW
Izuku: “T-Toshi?”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVZtiB3XJh5
Inko: “O-Oh, d-did I say that?”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnbPOKap3LO
Izuku: “Yes.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Q0PjzvgII
Inko: “W-Well, I-I guess I forgot to tell you that Toshinori and I h-have been meeting up. F-For progress reports! On you. That is.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq9LniD6Qli
…
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvrGoajci4c
Inko: “H-Honey?”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmz7mRkzQIP
Izuku: “Speak to you soon.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNeQINqFgS8
Fubuki could tell something was wrong when Izuku hung up so coldly.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqc7qsC5i9s
Fubuki: “Izu, what’s wrong?”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4iEfaWZv7u
He looks to his sister with steel in his eyes.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5osTC8vOuj
Izuku: “Assemble the family.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzXDTT5VOLx
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHclnumvKtL
Kiri’s face turns cold as she gets up from her position. Compromised, she didn’t see a point in hiding and transformed into her Valkyrie persona.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXz8Fe52RSh
Edgeshot: “Nice to meet you again.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5y1jQyZAD6
Valkyrie: “Now what? Will you try to take me in for being a hero?”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX2bMATUs2F
Edgeshot: “You are a vigilante.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNFJ4kLJbpO
Valkyrie: “I help people.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWI9dGTAc07
Edgeshot: “Scared them more like. What you did to those quirk beasts-”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAwy4TIyOyy
Valkyrie: “Was angry, and I wouldn’t do that to humans.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXArma4nvZg
Edgeshot: “… Based on your past work, I believe that. If it weren’t for Nezu, I would attempt to bring you in.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrirxSZahBe
Valkyrie: “You won’t… fight me?”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2nXSrkPR1u
Her guard lowers ever so slightly; it would be enough for Edgeshot to quickly subdue her. In her Valkyrie form, she’s likely stronger and has a greater reach, but that’s something the pro hero can overcome if needed.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUOSiTg0CkO
Good thing it’s not.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxOfgYzNZvb
Edgeshot: “No. I was one of the few who noticed the camera footage and would have tried to take you in. It did seem like you infiltrated U.A, but the principal explained things.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlabOCoyHf2
Valkyrie: “Then why bring it up?”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXu6nUPMPTt
Edgeshot: “To warn you to be more careful. Not everyone will know the principal or be as understanding as me. But more than that… ”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq2wZu0rtW4
Kiri could hear it: changes in the environment.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm9VRlVh7AR
Valkyrie: ‘Traps? All over?’
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe5JXk9TIC5
Edgeshot: “I understand what you are, but it is hard to believe. On the off chance you managed to trick everyone, I’ll make sure to keep a close eye on you.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVcaOBigl52
Valkyrie: “… Nh. Can I go now?”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuGuoy1XALF
Edgeshot: “Yes.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYu13jJBBRS
Transforming back to her normal form, Kiri walks past Edgeshot and enters the elevator. When she pressed the button for the bottom floor, she released the breath she was holding.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ58qtziocae
Kiri: “Dangerous. As expected.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq6rR9BYi93
Besides her sisters, Edgeshot was one of the heroes she tried to avoid when she was just Valkyrie. It seems like that was the right choice.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzWrH84y4LJ
As Kiri regained her footing, her phone rang. After a moment trying to remember how those things work, she answered with a smile. Izuku was calling after all.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiZxhjNPcD7
Kiri: “Yes, Izu.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfCZYWzvlxf
After a moment, she nodded her head. This is some serious business, but despite that, she smiled. For now, she could be with her family for a while.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4dP9ORVZxF
Kiri: “Okay, I’m coming.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkFx2FsDSxj
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqpZfA7Lzow
An Hour Later
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNN73j6ysET
Toshinori was just leaving the grocery store and walking out to his car. Once he entered the car, he drove off into the street. He stopped at a red light that illuminated the inside of his car. He looked up into the rearview mirror…
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVmWRoslVBV
… and saw the Midoriya children in the backseat.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIxpUaOcWpe
Izuku: “Good evening, All Might.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9JpwNQBD2J
All Might: “AAAAAHHH!”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMIdYlS2rfz
The hero panicked and swerved off the road into a nearby lot. He stomped on the brakes and sat there trying to catch his breath.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXLMRWmuFtx
Fubuki: “Or should we say-”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡExGqpJVnOZ
Tatsumaki: “Toshi.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSGhG4VLFOG
Kiri: “Bad man.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡScxSsQzrh4
All Might: “… I can explain.”
