MHA: The Symbol of Strength.

Chapter 11: Chapter 11: Observation Haki!



Boom!

The wind on the field exploded into fierce chaos. The students screamed in shock and slight pain as the wind lashed their skins like a soft leather belt was hitting them.

"Ahhhh!" Momo and the other girls shouted as their body was thrown back slightly. Shoto gritted his teeth as he shielded his eyes from the wind.

Boom!

A circular wall of ice enveloped the students as Shoto helped them from getting thrown into the air. Aizawa wrapped his scarf around Coby's hand, trying to anchor himself to something.

"What power... I don't think All Might could do something like this, not anymore." Aizawa muttered under his breath with eyes full of shock. He tried to shield his eyes from the wind.

A few seconds later, the fierce and harsh wind started fading, the dust rising from the broken ground. The students let out a sigh of relief, sweat sliding down their faces.

Bakugou and Shoto stood in place, frozen as they looked at Coby standing in a crater large enough to fit a human inside it. Their eyes were shaking, their hands trembling.

"T-this power... Can I overcome something like that?" Shoto and Bakugou both had a simple thought in their mind. How will they beat Coby? No matter what went through their minds, they can't find an answer.

Turning around, Coby smiled as he sheepishly rubbed the back of his hand. He looked at the students and Aizawa, noticing the scarf wrapped around his hand.

"Pardon me, I should have held back." Aizawa clicked his tongue as he fell onto the ground with a dull thud. He was muttering something about some troublesome kid.

Behind a school building, All Might watched the show of power with narrowed eyes, his eyes searching until they landed on Midoriya. All Might looked at Midoriya. He had a shocked and doubting look on his face.

"Young Midoriya. Don't give up just yet. You can become just as strong as young Coby." All Might muttered, but it did not manage to reach Midoriya from all the way here.

On the field, the students surrounded Aizawa and Coby, waiting eagerly for his score. Aizawa picked up his iPad, and he smirked as he saw the symbol.

"Infinite." The students looked at the symbol infinity with confused faces. How could one get infinite? Did the iPad start to not work or something?

"That does not make sense. How did he reach Infinite?" Mina asked with confusion on her face. The others nodded their heads in acceptance. 

"He threw the ball into space," Aizawa said calmly, hidden satisfaction shining in his eyes. Looks like he can teach a good student this year.

'He might even become the number 1 hero in the future with this strength.' Aizawa thought while looking at Coby.

The shock of the ball throw eventually faded, and Aizawa presented the next test that they had to undergo. It was a 50-meter dash, timed to see how fast everyone was.

"First up is Tenya Iida and Coby. Get to the line and wait for my start." Coby nodded as he walked towards the line. He looked beside him at Tenya Iida, and he smiled.

"No hard feelings, right? I am gonna beat you." Iida shook his head and was about to talk when Aizawa started the countdown. Coby and Iida turned series.

"1" Coby crouched down. He decided to show everyone what he was capable of. He is going to be the symbol of Strength, so he has to show everyone why he will be that.

"2" Coby's muscles coiled like a spring. He was making his calves move like a spring using Seimei Kikan.

"3"

"GO!"

Aizawa and the students watched Iida constantly speed off, with Coby still standing at the starting line. Or it's what everybody else saw since they are not fast enough.

Beep!

Aizawa looked down at his tablet, and on it was a timer of 0.001 seconds. Under the timer was the speed of the thing that crossed its detection.

"Mach 147?... " Aizawa looked up from his tablet just as Iida crossed in 3 seconds. But Coby was already there waiting for him with a smile on his face.

"How?" Everybody watched as Coby at the starting line started to fade away into nothingness. Then the realisation struck them. That was an afterimage they saw.

"Good to see you slow poke~" Coby teased Iida while stretching his shoulder to pop the joints and the tension in them. He used Soru and his max speed.

He was not satisfied with his speed, still. If he can't cross the line in a mere 0.0001 seconds, then he is slow by his own standards. Characters in One Piece are fighting with light-speed attacks, after all.

He wants to reach that kind of speed and power. He wants to surpass it and become even stronger. Time is all he needs. With his Quirk and training, he will be able to do it.

'Mission.'

Coby called up his mission interface to see the progress, and he smirked.

[Mission: Road to be the strongest Hero!]

[Reward: Unlocking of Observation Haki.]

[Requirenments: Get the top score on every test.]

[Test: 2/5]

He has already got top scores on both tests and now only 3 more are left for him to do. Walking towards Hagakure, CDoby smirked.

"What do you think?" Coby asked.

"You are awesome, you know that?" Hagakure asked with a smile on her face as she leaned in to kiss Coby on the cheek. Coby smirked.

Next, Aizawa called up every student to the line, and they all ran, with Hagakure actually finishing in 4.5 seconds. Not the best, but not the worst either.

"Alright, next is the grip strength test." Coby sighed as he watched everyone go and squeeze the tester. He requested to go last, and Aizawa agreed.

Once everyone finished, Coby squeezed the machine so hard that it turned into pulp in his hands. He got the best score in it too. Hagakure managed to get 304 Kg in the grip test.

"Next is the standing long jump. First up is Ochako." Ochako beamed as she stood in front of the sand pit. With a deep breath, she jumped up, connecting her fingers to make herself float.

In moments, she crossed the pit, getting the highest score. Coby was impressed with the utility of her quirk. The students went one by one to the pit, jumping.

Hagakure almost managed to clear the whole pit like Ochako using the simplified function of Geppo that Coby taught her.

Next was Coby's turn, and with a leap he cleared the pit, tying the score with Ochako. 

The next test was repeated side jumps, and Coby got the highest score by creating after images from his jumps.

The next was the ball throw, but since Coby already did that, everyone else was the one doing it. First was Bakugo, who got a score of 705.3 meters.

One by one, the students threw the ball, with Hagakure getting a score of 234 meters in the ball throw. Ochako got a score of infinite, like Coby due to the ball ending up in space.

The last to go was Midoriya, just like originally. Aizawa erased his quirk to stop him from breaking his arm, and he threatened to kick him out if he did not do good.

Izuku managed to use his finger to throw the ball, beating Bakugou's score by just a tiny bit.

Alright, the rankings are set, take a look." Aizawa said as he put a ranking in front of everyone. Number one of course went to Coby, with number two being Shoto, and 3 being Bakugou.

"Despite ranking so low. You won't be kicked out as you managed to control the quirk in the end." Aizawa said as Izuku was about to start crying crocodile tears.

"Of course. He wouldn't expel us. He only wanted us to do our best." Momo spoke up as she explained the test from Aizawa. Coby just smiled since he knew that he was not joking about expelling them.

"Everybody can go home. See you tomorrow." Aizawa says as he walks away, leaving Class- A confused.

"Everyone! How about going to a restaurant to get to know each other better?" Coby says as he draws everyone's attention. Most agreed, with the only ones not going being.

Bakugou, Shoto, Koji and Mineta since Coby replaced him. Once everyone agreed they got changed, and went to a cool place to eat.
