NAGATO IN MHA

Nagato was brought to the infirmary with Bakugo.

With Bakugo's nature, it wouldn't be complete without making a scene. Along the way the man kept shouting until he became the center of attention.

Almost all 1A students saw Bakugo being led to the UKS. They then intercepted Midoriya for interrogation.

Nagato could see Midoriya struggling to answer each of his friends' questions.

But the strange thing was, why was Nagato in the Principal's room. Shouldn't he go to the UKS?

Nagato

remembered Aizawa-sensei's words.

"You have enough guts to make trouble, kid."

"Isn't it natural for a kid my age to cause trouble?" Nagato commented.

"That's the problem." After saying that, Aizawa-sensei walked out while closing the door.

Nagato now looked at Nezu who was sitting behind his desk.

"So...,"

"

Yeah?" Nezu replied with a smile.

"What am I here for? I thought my destination would be the infirmary." Nagato asked hesitantly. His eyes still hurt, his body was also aching to lie down on the soft mattress of the UKS.

"Oh, you didn't know, or didn't realize Nagato-kun? Don't you always act mature and rational when you're with me?. You should have guessed." Nezu still had the same smiling expression.

"Ah, is it because I hit your student?. Just so you know, it was your student who issued the challenge first." Nagato explained the reason.

"Oh, and you accepted the challenge?" Nezu was still smiling the same.

"You know your student, don't you? If I don't respond to him, his mouth won't shut up." Nagato still explained calmly.

"Okay, I understand. But I don't mean about your duel with Bakugo-kun." Nezu picked up the glass of tea she had set aside before Nagato arrived.

"Then why...?"

"Still can't guess. Then I'll tell you." Nezu laced his fingers together. "Escape attempt."

"Attempted- what?. You mean me?" Nagato pointed at himself. He knew that his status was now only a prisoner, but Nagato had never thought of escaping before.

Nagato could live well here. He could also witness the storyline firsthand. Nagato wouldn't be so stupid as to leave all this comfort, would he?

Does Nezu think Nagato will leave and return with Shigaraki?. There was no way Nagato would do that.

Nezu nodded. "Who else?. You stole the monitoring device from Toshinori-san while he was off guard, didn't you?"

"I didn't steal it." Nagato averted his eyes.

"Then?

"

Nagato just shut up, he'd been found out. Maybe Nezu is already thinking nonsense, like going back to Shigaraki's place. Even though Nagato only took the monitoring device because he wanted to see Itachi.

"Fine, I know you won't say your reason. Now, if you want I forgive you. Give me back that device in your pocket." Nezu spread his claws.

Nagato returned the monitoring device in silence.

"This is better. You had us worried, you know." Nezu poured Nagato a glass of tea.

"Are you sure you don't want to tell us why you took the monitor?" Dan placed the glass in front of Nagato.

"I know that you went out to see your friend, right?" Nagato immediately looked at Nezu.

Nagato was surprised, it turned out that the reason for stealing the monitoring device had been found out. "How did you know?"

"So my guess was right? Hm, I thought so from the beginning. I found out where you were earlier also thanks to the help of your friend." Nezu smiled as usual.

Behind Nezu, Nagato could see a small black head poking out of the UA principal's shoulder.

"

You, traitor." Nagato hissed at Itachi.

Itachi immediately hid his head again. "Calm down calm down. This friend of yours really cares about you, you know. If this bird hadn't come to me and led us to your place. You would have continued to fight Bakugo to the death wouldn't you?"

Nagato snorted at the sight of Nezu petting Itachi who was hiding in his arms.

Are you a cat? Nagato thought as he saw Itachi enjoying Nezu's caress.

"Did you train this bird? He's so smart. What's his name?" Nezu unwrapped the potato chips while asking.

Nagato was confused at the snack in Nezu's hand. Since when did he have potato chips in his hand?.

"I didn't know her name before. I don't think he ever had a name before." Nagato scratched his hair as he remembered.

"I used to call him Itachi. That bird has developed a higher IQ. Maybe if you think about it, his way of thinking will be the same as a child maybe." Nagato rubbed his chin.

"Oh, how did you know this bird has the IQ of a child?" Nezu fed Itachi happily. He became interested in knowing that there were other animals that could also develop IQ like him.

Nagato couldn't possibly tell Nezu if Itachi had a human-like IQ because of his experiments with black iron. So he said the facts he knew.

"Because the bird can use its brain to think." Nagato squinted at Itachi who was busy eating chips.

Who exactly is Itachi's partner here? Me or Nezu, why does that bird seem to like that mouse so much?" Nagato wondered.

Nezu seemed to be interested in Itachi's thinking ability. "Really, what did he do?"

Nagato smiled wryly as he pointed at Itachi. "He's a jewelry thief, professional."

"Thief?..., ah, you mean, the theft case that often occurs in the park. The suspect is this bird?

"

Itachi was instantly petrified when he heard the conversation between the two people.

....

Bakugo had returned from the infirmary. He had gotten word from Kirishima that the next match would be an individual duel. And the opponent would be randomly drawn.

Bakugo got the news that he would be fighting Uraraka. Kirishima had left after saying that, saying he wanted to see the entertainment campaign with Sero and other friends.

It wasn't match time yet, so Bakugo went to find Midoriya. There was something he had to confirm first.

Brak!

Bakugo violently opened the door. The people inside jumped in surprise. Bakugo scanned the room, only Ojiro and Midoriya were here.

"You get out, I need to talk to Deku." Bakugo immediately shooed Ojiro away.

"Well..., Midoriya remember what I said earlier. I'll wait for you with the others." Ojiro left immediately as he felt the serious atmosphere Bakugo exuded.

"Good luck." Ojiro said that silently after glancing at Bakugo and closing the door.

Midoriya was already feeling tense about the upcoming match. Now it was even more tense with Bakugo's serious presence here. What does he want?

Midoriya smiled nervously. "J-so what do you want, kacchan?"

Bakugo sat down across the table. "How familiar are you with that little villain?"

"Ah, M-you mean Nagato-kun?. T-not too familiar. It was actually my first time talking to him too." Midoriya felt like he was sweating profusely. The serious Bakugo was rarely seen. Indeed, this morning he saw Bakugo's expression like this this morning during the representative speech. That meant Bakugo meant it in his actions.

Now Bakugo was wearing the same expression as this morning. What does Bakugo want?

"

You even called him Nagato-kun. And that boy also looks relaxed around you. You've known that boy before haven't you?!" Bakugo smacked the table.

Midoriya had known Bakugo's behavior for a long time, but still Midoriya couldn't help but be surprised by the man's every insolent behavior.

"N-no, I don't know!" Midoriya waved his hands frantically.

"Tell me the truth. You're obviously covering something up." Bakugo squinted.

"I-that is..., If I tell you..., can you keep a secret?" Midoriya said quietly while fiddling with his fingers.

Bakugo agreed silently.

"That..., I got a notice that our class will continue to interact with Nagato-kun. But I can't tell you why. It actually has something to do with the announcement Aizawa-sensei mentioned before the festival. So the point is, we should be able to be friends with Nagato-kun." Midoriya clenched his fists excitedly.

"Huh? I don't understand what you're saying at all. You've been talking nonsense all day." Bakugo blinked in confusion. His face had an expression like he was trying to solve a chemistry problem.

"Well, the point is that we should be able to be friends with Nagato-kun!" Midoriya repeated.

"Whatever, why have anything to do with the villain anyway. He's just a prisoner." Bakugo got up and left the room.

"But we should be able to-"

"

Noisy!." Bakugo immediately closed the door. His mind was now complicated. Too much had happened today.

Earlier after Bakugo eavesdropped on Todoroki and Midoriya's conversation. At first Bakugo only intended to look for wind. But instead he met Midoriya with Nagato. The two of them seemed to be familiar together.

Then what did Midoriya mean just now?. Must be able to make Nagato friends with 1A kids?. For what reason?.

Bakugo continued to think about this problem while heading to the stands reserved for class A.

....

"Why are you so insistent on wanting to watch the match Nagato-kun?."

Nagato and Nezu had returned to sit in the stands after treating Nagato with lightning. But even though it was quick Nagato still got a lecture from Recovery Girl. The old granny was very concerned about Nagato, it was only natural. All old people love little kids don't they?

"

You'll find out Nezu-san." Nagato replied calmly.

Nezu and Nagato's relationship became even better after the short conversation in the Principal's room. Now there was no awkward air between the two people.

But it seemed like Nagato's relationship with the other teachers had become a bit strained because of the incident earlier. But Nagato didn't care about it.

Nagato focused on Midoriya who was affected by Shinso's quirk and walked towards the dividing line.

"Looks like you need glasses Nezu-san. You put a talent like that in the general class?" Nagato commented, he already knew Shinso's past from watching the anime. Discrimination for being considered to have a villain quirk.

"Well, haha. I'm ashamed to admit it myself. But UA's own screening system is still flawed." Nezu laughed awkwardly.

"So eventually Midoriya will lose?" Nezu argued.

"No, he'll win." Nagato glanced at All Might who was peeking from the hallway.

And Nagato's opinion was correct. Midoriya broke out of Shinso's quirk control by breaking two of his fingers. The green-haired man then went straight to his opponent and slammed his opponent out of the line.

On the commentary screen Aizawa-sensei explained how Midoriya managed to defeat Shinso.

Shinso walked away with a glum face. But then that person got words of encouragement and admiration from his classmates. There were even a few Pro Heroes who commented that they were interested in Shinso's quirk, making that person look excited again.

It reminded him of the real world he used to live in. His classmates also often did that to get rid of the feeling of defeat after a basketball game. Especially his roommate, usually his friend's cheers would be the loudest among the others.

Nagato saw Midoriya leave the court holding his bruised hand.

Next, the match between Todoroki Shoto and Sero. Nagato saw the two men mentioned enter the field. He then asked Itachi to fly into the sky to find the best vantage point.

"Better be careful with the electrical connection of this place."

"Why all of a sudden? Do you know something Nagato-kun?" Nezu looked at Itachi who was flying.

Nagato shook his head and pointed at Todoroki. "That guy, he's an ice ability user. I'm just warning about the ice that will melt later."

"Oh, if that's what you mean, you don't have to worry Nagato-kun. My stadium is completely safe." Nezu stated confidently.

Nagato paid no attention to Nezu and focused on the match. The plot did not change. Todoroki froze Sero along with half the stadium. The whole place shook like an earthquake and an ice glacier stuck out from the top of the stadium. It shocked the people outside.

The temperature immediately dropped dramatically. A chill spread throughout the stands. Especially the stands that were hit by Todoroki's ice attack. Even the commentary room was frozen and the voices of Present Mic or Aizawa-sensei could not be heard at all.

Nagato smiled as he played with the steam coming out of his mouth.

"Looks like you predicted this, Nagato-kun." Nezu also felt the temperature drop drastically. While Nagato just chuckled.

Todoroki was immediately declared the winner after Sero admitted defeat.

For the next match there was absolutely no change. Except for one thing, Bakugo fought with a bruise on his chin. It wasn't very noticeable, but Nagato could tell by the rhinegan. His left eye always seemed to be wearing a magnifying glass, which was a bit confusing. But because of that Nagato's vision could become more distant.

Bakugo easily knocked Uraraka back. But the girl was still stubborn to charge forward. Uraraka still used her strategy in the anime which made Bakugo surprised. But Bakugo only magnified his explosion and hit Uraraka. Finally the girl was declared defeated due to unconsciousness.

Nagato thought. Bakugo is now often practicing sparring with me. Will this time Bakugo be stronger than the original character?. Or did I indirectly create a butterfly effect?.

Although he rarely reads isekai novels in his world. But he knew that usually if the isekai MC was related to the characters of the world he entered, it could create a butterfly effect and the storyline would change.

But, she entered this world and used a body from this world as well. Will the butterfly effect still happen?. Her origins were unclear and she was mysteriously related to All for one. She had also lived for more than half a year with Shigaraki.

Nagato rubbed his chin. But as I recall Shigaraki only lived with Kurogiri during the early episodes. There was no one else. Then, where did this 'Nagato' come from?. Isn't the Nagato character from the Naruto anime?. How did this character get here?. Or maybe....

"... This world is a fanfiction story?" Nagato was surprised by the results of his own thoughts.

"Hmm, what are you talking about Nagato-kun?" Nezu asked casually.

"Ah, T-no, nothing." Nagato shook his head. Trying to forget his absurd thoughts. But his heart was racing because of this thought.

Could it be true?
