reborn as tokoyami in mha

Chapter 3: Chapter 3: The Day of Judgment



The morning of the USJ field trip arrived, and the air felt heavier than usual. It wasn't just the anxiety of the upcoming training exercise that made the atmosphere tense—it was something deeper. I could feel the power growing within me, gnawing at the edges of my consciousness, urging me to take control, to embrace what I had become. I wasn't just Tokoyami anymore. I was something else entirely—something more dangerous, more deadly.

As I stood in front of the mirror, I couldn't help but marvel at the transformation. My appearance had changed dramatically. The usual U.A. uniform had been replaced with the Noob Saibot battle suit—a sleek, black ensemble that clung to my body like a second skin. The suit was armor-like but far more organic, as if woven from the very darkness itself. The surface shimmered with shifting, ethereal patterns that gave the illusion of it constantly changing. The black armor plates seemed alive, flowing like shadows, yet they radiated a chilling sense of power.

My head was uncovered, no mask obstructing my face. Instead, my appearance was that of Sung Jinwoo, the protagonist of Solo Leveling. My eyes were sharp, my features defined, and there was a coldness to my gaze that had never been there before. It was as though I could see everything for what it truly was—a world full of weakness, ripe for the taking.

I flexed my fingers, and immediately, Dark Shadow, my Quirk, responded. Unlike before, it wasn't just a dark, amorphous mass—it had taken on a new form. The shadow now resembled Noob Saibot, his signature silhouette, his face hidden beneath a mask, eyes glowing with an ominous, soulless light. The shadow clung to me like an extension of my own body, moving with a life of its own. The power was overwhelming—darker, colder, and more insidious than I could have ever imagined.

"Darkness... is mine to control," I whispered, watching as the shadow spread across the room, curling around the walls, blending seamlessly with the surroundings.

I wasn't just Tokoyami anymore—I was something far greater. I could feel the presence of Noob Saibot's dark power swirling inside me, and with it came a newfound strength—one I could barely comprehend. And beneath that power was the familiar, yet horrifying, sensation of Sung Jinwoo's abilities—the energy, the power to grow stronger with every battle, every enemy I defeated. I wasn't just going to be a hero today—I was going to show them just how much power I possessed.

The students of Class 1-A were already gathered in the courtyard, preparing to board the bus that would take us to the USJ. I walked towards them, but the moment I stepped outside, I noticed something different. Their gazes lingered on me longer than usual, their expressions shifting between confusion and curiosity. Even Fumikage Tokoyami, the original version of me, gave me a side glance as I approached. He hesitated for a moment, as if sensing something was off. But instead of confronting me, he simply nodded, as though accepting whatever change had overtaken me.

The bus ride was uneventful, but in the back of my mind, I could feel the pull of Noob Saibot's influence. This training exercise wasn't just about fighting villains or proving our worth—it was a step in the right direction. A chance to test my abilities, to push the limits of my power. I couldn't wait to see how far I could go.

When we arrived at the USJ (Unforeseen Simulation Joint), the familiar setting immediately brought back memories of the attack that had occurred here in the original timeline. I knew what was coming—the League of Villains would soon make their move. But I wasn't going to wait for them to act. I was going to be the one who took charge today. This wasn't about survival. It was about domination.

As the doors to the USJ opened, we were greeted by Thirteen, who was explaining the training simulations. But as she began her briefing, my senses heightened. The shadows around us seemed to pulse with an unnatural rhythm, as if they were alive, responding to my every thought. And that was when I felt it—the arrival of the villains.

The League of Villains had arrived, just as I'd anticipated. Shigaraki, Toga, Dabi, and the others emerged from the shadows, but instead of waiting for the heroes to react, I made my move. The darkness inside me began to swirl and twist, and with a single motion, I raised my hand.

"Darkness, come forth."

The ground beneath us trembled as Dark Shadow erupted from my body in the form of a massive, serpentine shadow. It moved like a tidal wave, crashing toward the villains with terrifying speed. I wasn't just controlling Dark Shadow anymore; I was becoming it—its will was my will, its power my power. It was an extension of myself, and I knew exactly what it was capable of.

As the shadow surged forward, it wrapped around Shigaraki, pulling him off his feet with ease. His struggles were futile as the darkness smothered him, leaving only his mask visible amidst the blackness. My body moved in sync with the shadow, my hands weaving through the air as I manipulated the darkness to bind and restrict my enemies.

Toga tried to fight back, but her knives couldn't pierce the shadows. Dabi unleashed his flames, but they were absorbed into the darkness, leaving no trace. It was as if I had become a living nightmare, a being of pure shadow that even their quirks couldn't counter.

I stepped forward, my eyes locked onto Shigaraki, whose limbs were frozen by my control. The other villains were attempting to regroup, but they were too slow, too weak. Dark Shadow spread across the floor, and with a single motion, I pulled the shadows tighter around Shigaraki, constricting him further.

"You're far too weak to face me," I murmured, my voice cold and detached. I wasn't just speaking to him—I was speaking to the heroes, the villains, the world at large. I was done being a bystander. I was here to take control.

From the shadows, I felt the power of Noob Saibot surge, a power I had never fully understood until now. It wasn't just about physical strength; it was about control—control over life and death, control over space, control over the very essence of existence. I could see the fear in their eyes—not just the villains, but the heroes too. They hadn't seen anything like this before.

As the battle continued, I began to wield my powers with more precision. The Noob Saibot armor reacted to my every command, amplifying my movements, enhancing my strikes. Dark Shadow, now infused with my power, seemed to devour everything in its path. The shadows grew more intense, more destructive. I wasn't just fighting—I was erasing my enemies from existence, piece by piece.

In the midst of the chaos, I could feel the familiar presence of Sung Jinwoo's power deep within me. The power to level up. The power to grow stronger with every battle. I could feel my strength increasing, feeding off the struggle, growing ever more potent. I wasn't simply a hero anymore—I was becoming something far more terrifying.

And as I stood there, watching the League of Villains scramble to escape the onslaught of darkness, I couldn't help but smile.

This was just the beginning.

The world of heroes and villains had no idea what was coming.

I would be their nightmare.
