MHA: A system of whimsy

*

I fought first. Well, how did I fight... I just walked into the arena. The start of the fight was announced. Shinso asked me a question in a relaxed manner, but I simply shrugged and walked towards him.

- Eh? - He clearly didn't expect such a development of events, and when he saw my grin, he seemed to begin to understand what was going on...

- Damn it!

But it was already too late... I pushed off from the arena and instantly appeared in front of him, knocking him out with one punch to the solar plexus.

For a moment, the entire stadium fell silent, but then the crowd exploded with applause!

I even heard some surprised cries about how Shinso was even able to get to this point.

"Instant victory! Koji Bakugou has won with one blow, and thus advances to the next stage!" Present Mic shouted.

Nobody could understand why the hell the fight was so fast and easy. Some were even outraged by such a "boring spectacle". A few seconds and it was over.

I could only "sympathize" with Shinso, who was soon carried away on a stretcher...

Then the fighting continued, and I returned to the others.

- Wow, Koji, you finished him off with one blow!

- This kid was more of a show-off.

The guys started praising me. Momo just smiled, Katsuki silently burned me with his gaze.

"This is only the first fight. Shinso revealed his quirk back in middle school, so defeating him was very easy," I decided to share a little with the guys, although without much detail.

- Yes? What's his quirk?

- One day you will find out for yourself.

- Huh? Hey, Koji! Tell us!

- You'd better watch the next fight.

Todoroki lingered a little longer, but of course he won quickly.

After that, Iida fought, but his opponent was Reiko from Class B, and her quirk wasn't very useful without other objects. In the end, she lost.

Well, then Ashido defeated Aoyama.

By the way... Should I kill him early?

Actually, it was a controversial matter, because if I get rid of the traitor, I could hurt my future growth. What if the number of tasks decreases? And how can I get rid of him? Kill and bury him? Too problematic.

It's easier to put this matter off until better times. And if he is "removed", how will the League get to the Training Camp? It would be stupid to miss out on a big fish because of a small fry.

Of course, I won't let the villains capture Katsuki. Even if it doesn't end up harming him and the heroes save him, I still won't stand idly by. Of course, I can show cold-bloodedness for the sake of my own development... But blindly relying on memories, in my opinion, is not the best idea. It's precisely because of my existence that Katsuki may suffer even more.

Meanwhile, the fighting continued. It was Momo's turn...

- Don't worry. Use more light and try not to fly out of the arena.

I encouraged her, to which she nodded with a smile and nervously pursed her lips.

I chuckled, stood up immediately and hugged her tightly. Words were unnecessary.

After a short hug, Momo calmed down a bit, then nodded to me and moved into the arena.

Tokoyami was already waiting.

Overall, the fight went much better than it could have, and all because Momo not only defended herself, as was the case in canon. She was able to hold out longer, but her hand-to-hand combat skills were too weak... Tokoyami was no fool. Even though she blinded him and tried to push him back, in the end he simply knocked her down and broke her arm. Not a bad technique.

Well, if we meet him in a future duel, I will do exactly the same...

Was I unhappy? Quite the opposite. It might hurt Momo's confidence, but I could get it back, and she would "pay me back" for it.

Yaoyorozu needs more training, especially in terms of brute force. With her quirk, it's vital to be able to not only fight, but also be proficient in wielding multiple weapons.

Losing will be a great way to get closer and be alone with her.

When Momo returned, I hugged her slightly. She smiled bitterly:

- I'm sorry... I lost.

- So what? - I grinned: - Don't hang your head. As soon as you lose confidence in yourself, that's when you'll finally lose. Do you understand?

- Mm... - she wasn't really in the mood for conversation, but she smiled and laid her head on my shoulder anyway. I guess the loss wasn't exactly a crushing one, so she's not feeling so bad. And I'm here.

Well, let's wait for my next fight...

Katsuki fought Shoji and won. Midoriya also passed, although he sacrificed a finger.

Iida also succeeded.

In fact, by this point, Class A was dominating the arena.

So, as a result, my next fight took place with Todoroki.

Well, at least there's something interesting today.

I stood up and stretched my arms.

- Come on guys!

- Don't give in!

The rest supported us. Only Momo looked at me and smiled:

- Try your best.

"Of course," I chuckled and calmly walked towards the arena.

By the time I arrived, Shoto was already there.

And, surprisingly, he immediately spoke to me:

- You are strong, but I will not lose.

I smiled calmly:

- I advise you to use your left side, otherwise your fantasies will not come true.

He only frowned at my words, but did not answer.

— Meet! The Heroic Faculty — Koji Bakugo, who won with one punch! On the other hand, the man who won by freezing the entire stadium — the Heroic Faculty — Todoroki Shoto! We're in for an interesting fight!

As soon as Mick announced the start of the match, Todoroki attacked without hesitation!

*WHOO

Right away with the strongest attack? Not bad...

An icy wave rushed towards me, but I responded to it with a calm laugh, put my hands out and...

*BOOM*

And it started to explode!

*Boom!* *Boom!* *Boom!* *Boom!* *Boom!* *Boom!*

No matter how much Todoroki tried, his ice was not enough to stop my advance. I not only stood there, but also walked towards him, keeping an eye out for him to freeze my legs. I had dealt with this ice before, but it was not worth underestimating. However, as I said, Todoroki cannot win without fire. Although, even with it, he did not have much of a chance. At least not his current...

The course of events has turned out interestingly. Shoto won't hold out, which means we'll soon meet my brother. It's highly doubtful that Midoriya will be able to defeat him. Although, it's not worth writing him off just yet. Because of my existence, this boy couldn't prove himself, but in the end, somehow, he still managed to end up at this battle. I don't rule out that he will fight like a beast in order to impress the Almighty. Brother will definitely have a tough fight...

As for me...

*Boom!* *Boom!* *Boom!* *Boom!* *Boom!*

I calmly dealt with Todoroki's ice, and then broke upward with the help of explosions, but even there he tried to catch me by moving the ice wave. However, he was more of a favor to me, because I was able to push off from it, and then aim...

*Boom!*

Armor-piercing shot!

This technique was taught to me by Katsuki. Future Katsuki. And its effectiveness was quite high...

- Cough! - Todoroki was immediately thrown back, and his shoulder began to bleed!

I didn't waste any time...

*Boom!* *Boom!* *Boom!*

Maneuvering in the air I reached my goal, but then...

*SHUU

Fire wave!

Was he scared?

- Wow... - I grinned and put my hand to the left and with an explosion turned my body, after which I hit down!

*Boom!*

Now on top!

I literally saw Todoroki's pupils contract, but it was too late!

Putting my hands together I produced a powerful explosion!

*BOOM!*

Shoto only managed to create an ice shield in front of himself, then channeled his strength into forming a stable position so that he wouldn't be pushed back by the explosion, but would that be enough?

From the start of the fight to this moment, only a few seconds had passed. I didn't give him time to properly gather himself, and his lousy control of both sides played a cruel joke on him.

*Boom!* *Boom!* *Boom!* *Boom!* *Boom!*

I started literally bombarding him when I first landed on the arena. All this time I was just maneuvering in the air, but now there was no need. A stable position and putting the enemy on the defensive literally decided the outcome of the fight. Shoto couldn't even properly counterattack, focusing on just the ice, because if he did, he would immediately get an explosion in the face. That's why, although there were flashes of fire coming from him at times, everything ended as expected.

Signal!

- Todoroki is out of the picture! Koji Bakugou advances to the third round!

Too easy...
