Chapter 8: Chapter 8: Conqueror's Haki.
Boom!
The ground under the unconscious Coby exploded into gravel and dust. The shockwave blew Shigaraki, Kurogiri and the Nomu back.
Opening his eyes, Coby stood up robotically. His eyes turned red, and his sclera turned black. The wound on his forehead started scabbing. In its place was a fresh scar.
His green bandana slid off his forehead, coloured red from Coby's blood. Shigaraki and Kurogiri looked at Coby in confusion. The surroundings were filled with panicked screams.
"Somebody call the police!"
"My eyes!"
"My leg! Help me!"
"My son!"
People all around screamed in pain or fear as the shards of the windows exploded in a mile radius and injured them. Some managed to escape due to their quirk, but not everyone.
"Hmmm? He looks different. What happened?" Shigaraki clicked his tongue at seeing Coby still standing. His eyes looked at the scar on his forehead, noting how fast it healed.
"He must have been hiding something, maybe a second quirk? Or master would not have been interested in his quirk." Kurogiri guessed as he watched Coby.
Shigaraki and Kurogiri watched as Coby walked past Nomu. There was no explosion of speed, no afterimage or anything. It was silent, just a bleep as if Coby teleported.
Boom!
The Nomu was struck across its chest, its body had a huge hole blown into its chest, showing its insides and ribs. Nomu absorbed the shock of the punch using his shockwave absorption quirk.
The massive hole in its chest shows the inside, his ribs being covered with flesh and healing. Coby turned around, sending a kick that struck Nomu in his waist.
Boom!
A gigantic shockwave that rattled the entire city block was created from the impact. Nomu was sent flying from the force, striking a row of houses that got into his path.
Screams were heard as Nomu smashed through a row of houses, leaving behind destroyed houses and splattering bodies. Shigaraki and Kuroiri froze.
Boom!
Nomu sprung out from the rubble before running towards Coby at full speed. Coby turned around with an expressionless face before he pushed Nomu to the ground.
Boom!
Nomu rag-dolled on the ground before he was kicked with a knee strike in the chin, sending him flying and spinning backwards. Coby jumped above Nomu, and then he combined Soru and Geoppu to use sky walk.
Boom!
Coby flashed towards Nomu, before hitting him in the stomach with a full-powered, Tekkai and Shigan leg kick. The body of Nomu burst apart from the force, sending blood and body parts everywhere.
Coby landed on the ground, and then he turned towards Shigaraki and Kurogiri. Kurogiri instantly opened a portal, stopping Coby's fist from hitting Shigaraki, by a mere cm.
Swoosh!
Kurogiri and Shigaraki vanished, running away as they knew they could not beat Coby. A few seconds go by with Coby standing in the middle of the destroyed street.
The blood on his face and white shirt made him look menacing, especially with his scar and his eyes. A working camera that was not destroyed flashed as it looked at Coby.
Above the city, a worried and shocked All Might jumped towards the ruined city blocks, pain and shock as he landed behind Coby. All Might looked around and noticed the head of the Nomu.
"What is that?... Young Coby, are you okay?" All Might walked towards Coby, and his palm landed on Coby's shoulder. All Might froze as Coby turned to look at him.
"Your eyes!" All Might muttered before he let go. Just then, he noticed the new scar and the amount of blood on Coby. Worry filled his heart before he suddenly got a call.
All Might picked up his phone instantly, and Nezu's voice was heard on the other side. Informing All Might of the next steps.
"All Might. Bring young Coby to UA. He is not safe right now." Nezu sipped his tea calmly, with a computer screen in front of him, replaying the entire fight from the moment that Coby was attacked.
'What happened after Coby got knocked out?... Those eyes and that cold face. Almost like a machine.'
All Might was about to answer when Coby's eyes instantly returned to their normal colour. Coby woke up with a gasp, his body aching all over as his muscles ruptured in an instant.
Splurt!
Blood splashed onto the ground like a bucket of water. Coby trembled before his body fell back. All Might opened his eyes wide as he shouted Coby's name.
All Might caught Coby in his hands, and he instantly jumped towards UA. His body flew through the air. In a minute he arrived at UA, storming towards Recovery Girl.
[Next Day.]
Coby opened his eyes weakly. The first thing he noticed was that he was not in his room anymore. The second thing he noticed was his mother laying her head on the side of his bed.
[Limiter restored to 10%]
Coby moved his hand, resting it on his mother's head. His other hand clenched into a fist, grabbing the cover so hard that it was torn into shreds.
His eyes turned cold as they started glowing with a silver light. He recalled how he was hit by the Nomu and also how his consciousness returned. He had to watch as his body was controlled to fight.
"Never again..."
"NEVER."
"NEVER!!!"
Boom!
A pink bubble of energy covered the entire school. Black and pink lightning raged around the school, the ground and the building shaking from the pressure.
[Ding!]
[Unlocked Conqueror's Haki!]
[Conqueror's Haki - Starter.]
Coby's teeth ground against each other as he felt anger eat him alive, his chest was heaving and moving up and down. If looks could kill, the entire world would be dead right now.
"Shigaraki... All for one. You will regret the day you were born for messing with me!" Coby's voice was filled with venom. It reached Ursa's ears, and she opened her eyes, pretending to sleep.
Shigaraki? All for one? Who were those people, and why did they try to murder her son?
"Young Coby! Are you all right?" The door opened, and a panicked All Might entered. Coby was panting as his chest burned with anger. He nodded his head, his silver eyes trembling with anger.
"Yes. I am okay. How long was I out for?" Coby asked as he put his leg over the bed, he stood up, the hospital gown on his body. Coby looked to the side and noticed a set of clothes on a chair.
"You have been out only for an hour... Are you sure you are okay?" All Might asked. He still can't believe that even before reaching Recovery Girl, Coby's own regeneration healed him.
Coby put the clothes on, and he walked towards his mother. He picked her up in his arms and turned to look at All Might.
"Yes. I am sorry for the trouble I caused. I need to get my mother home for now." All Might wanted to stop Coby, but from his experience as a hero for decades, he instantly knew from his eyes that he wouldn't stop.
"Alright, Young Coby. And don't worry, nothing that happened in the fight is your fault." Coby nodded as he walked out of the room. He was met with a guard who guided him out of the school grounds.
Once outside, Coby unlocked 20% of his strength, and he used Geppo to fly over the buildings, reaching his home in only 4 Minutes. Once there, he put his mother on her bed before covering her with a blanket.
"I can't relax anymore. I have to give it my all in training until I kill those fucking bastards!" Coby went outside to the beach, and with determined eyes, he started his training.
His training was done as fast as he could move, he was determined to finally unlock Seimei Kikan. Getting ambushed because you can't use your full power is tough.
"I will never allow that situation to happen. Ever again." Coby swore under his breath.
