MHA : QUIRK EVOLUTION

Just as Ezaki Kitazawa was about to speak, Stain beat him to it. 

"You're Ezaki Kitazawa, aren't you?" 

Ezaki Kitazawa paused for a moment. He didn't expect this guy to know who he was. In the original story, Stain had worked with the League of Villains, so there was a good chance he wasn't alone this time. 

"I am. Looks like you came here just for me." 

"Looks like you're just another fake." 

Stain's voice was low and serious. He had his own beliefs—he thought that in this world full of so-called heroes, most of them were just frauds who didn't deserve the title. That's why he hunted down pro heroes. 

"Fake? You mean pro heroes? But I think you got the wrong person because I'm not a pro hero." Ezaki Kitazawa replied calmly. 

"U.A. Sports Festival Champion. I bet a lot of fakes look up to you. I can't wait to see their faces after I kill you." 

Stain started laughing. 

Ezaki Kitazawa frowned. This guy was completely insane—there was no reasoning with him. 

Ezaki Kitazawa understood that many pro heroes were in it for the money, but there were also plenty of them who were truly dedicated to justice. 

"A fake, huh…? That word is really starting to get annoying. I have a rule: If someone is a threat to me and I can win, I never leave them alive. If I can't win, I'll wait until I can—and then I still won't leave them alive." 

Ezaki Kitazawa waved his hand dismissively. 

"Heh… Then you won't get the chance. I never leave fakes alive either. Otherwise, how could I call myself the Hero Killer?" 

Stain sneered. But the moment he finished speaking— 

*Boom!* 

He was sent flying backward and slammed into the wall. 

*Crack!* 

The impact left a huge crack in the wall. 

*Splurt!* 

Stain coughed up a mouthful of blood. The next second, his mind went blank. 

"This guy… He's different from the people I've fought before. His strength might even be above some of the fakes… Did I target the wrong person?" 

Stain wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and stared at Ezaki Kitazawa, who was slowly walking toward him. 

"You… You really surprised me," Stain muttered. 

Then, he pulled out his sword and charged at Ezaki Kitazawa. 

*Swish! Swish! Swish!* 

After a series of flashy moves, he hadn't even managed to touch Ezaki Kitazawa. 

"Looks like today, it's not you who won't leave anyone alive—it's me, Hero Killer Stain." 

Ezaki Kitazawa's voice was cold. 

Stain flipped backward, putting some distance between them. But he knew he had miscalculated today. 

He never imagined that a first-year student would have this kind of power. 

Now, he was starting to understand what the news meant when they talked about a potential successor to the Symbol of Peace. 

"Looks like today, I've run into someone with real strength… A soon-to-be fake hero." 

But before Stain could finish his sentence— 

*Whoosh!* 

Ezaki Kitazawa moved in an instant and delivered a punch straight to Stain's stomach. 

"Ugh!" 

Stain coughed up blood again, tumbling across the ground for dozens of flips before finally crashing into a wall and coming to a stop. 

Ezaki Kitazawa slowly walked over, speaking as he did. 

"I had something I wanted to test just now, so congratulations—you got to be the first one." 

As soon as he finished, his entire body turned deep red, and flames flared up around him. When he stepped forward, the ground beneath him changed. 

The alley started transforming into lava at a speed visible to the naked eye, yet Ezaki Kitazawa stood calmly on top of it. 

Stain's face went stiff as he saw the lava rapidly approaching him. Panicked, he leaped into the air— 

But the moment he jumped, several wooden branches shot out, grabbing him and dragging him back down. 

By the time he hit the ground again, the lava was already right in front of him. However, it stopped moving forward. 

He looked up, trying to find Ezaki Kitazawa, but all he could see was lava—no sign of him anywhere. 

Then, the lava in front of him suddenly bubbled, rising up and taking shape at a speed visible to the eye. 

In the blink of an eye, Ezaki Kitazawa stood there once more. 

"You really think you can escape?" 

Ezaki Kitazawa's cold gaze locked onto Stain, who was still bound by the wood. 

Sweat poured down Stain's face. 

"A combined Quirk? What a freakish ability!"
