Chapter 10 Start the Festival

The day had finally arrived, the U.A. sports festival, the most anticipated event of the year by almost the entire population of Japan, was about to begin.

The excitement was experienced by the whole nation, even the people who were in the field looked forward to the start of the festival. This year especially was going to be the best, as most wanted to see the guys who survived the attack by the league of villains.

The facilities of the academy were bursting, being a sporting event not only of heroic character, but also being a "normal school" event, there were thousands of food stalls in various parts of the area. Mainly at the entrance of each stadium where the different tests would be carried out.

After all, not only freshmen had their own competition. Even second- and third-year students had their own similar activities. There were a lot of people entering the freshman competition.

But there were not only spectators, there were also professional heroes hanging around the areas of the place, along with police and several Reapers who were positioned mainly at the entrances of the facilities, thanks to an integrated x-ray system, they could see through all the people, observing if they did not bring with them some hidden weapon.

After all, no one wanted another incident like the one in the U.S.J. to happen, it would be disastrous in many ways, since there were now civilians in the area. Returning to the story, we focused on a small group of heroes who walked calmly through the place.

"A takoyaki order, please," Yu asked as he looked hungrily at the food prepared by one of the many food stalls on site.

- Do you really plan to eat now? You just finished eating a bowl of ramen—was the question asked by one of the heroes who accompanied the blonde, who wore a mask to hide his face and head, and his hero costume includes a wooden belt, wooden knee pads and wooden shoes. A small veil of rose hangs on the left side of her belt. This is Shinji Nishiya A.K.A Kamui Woods.

"Don't worry, I think we can take a few minutes of joy as we walk," said his companion who was a very tall man with a very muscular body with a big chin. He has short white hair, wears a hero costume, which features a band on his forehead with a yellow/black pattern of danger signs, a T-shirt that only covers his arms leaving his torso and abs visible, on each of his wrists he wears two heavy metal bracelets with the same color pattern as the band on his forehead and wears light blue pants with a stripe white vertical, and in addition to a belt that has the same pattern as his band and bracelets, this is Jin Suichi A.K.A Death Arms.

"Well, I understand that, but I'm worried to see Mt. Lady eat like this," the wooden hero pointed out.

- You do know I'm here, right? Besides, I can't help it, as if because of nerves—I comment the girl to receive her order, and start eating them.

"Since you mention it, one of the freshmen is your friend, right?" — Jin asked.

"Right, I remember, that boy is one of class A right, one of the boys who survived the attack of the league of villains," Kamui clarified as they walked through the place.

"Yes, Naruto is competing today. And it makes me nervous to know what's going to happen," I clarify the blonde.

"Well, I feel like you're worried about nothing. You say it yourself, the boy is strong, I see no problems, what's more, with everything you tell us, maybe he will be in the first place," replied the heavy hero.

"Yes, maybe, but that's not what worries me. Lately he has become quieter than he ever was, he has never been good at making friends, he has always been a boy reserved for everything, but now I feel it more than before, the woman commented with some concern, while seeing the ground at all times.

Since the U.S.J. incident, she had noticed that the Uzumaki's attitude changed. When she received that call from the police, who informed her that her "brother" had suffered an attack by villains, she felt that her world was broken, she at the time was working, but she left that to start running in her giant form, to get to the place, begging and asking God that nothing had happened to the blonde, I was scared and afraid, wishing deep down that I wouldn't hear bad news when it came.

And when she arrived, she just jumped directly to hug her friend, while crying with happiness to see that nothing had happened to him, she was relieved to see him well, grateful to the one above for saving her "little brother". But of course, she would not leave that at that, she began to fight and demand answers as they allowed that, even she realized that she exaggerated things by her way of acting.

Even now he was embarrassed by that, but back to the subject. After that, I notice that his way of being will be colder than usual. He knew that Naruto was not a sociable person, he never really had any friends. She got to know him when he was just 4 years old, and she was 12 years old. Their relationship began when she ran into him once she left school, she saw him face some boys older than him.

She seeing that injustice, was going to help him, after all, he was a 4-year-old boy, being surrounded by 3 6-year-old boys. More took a big surprise that day, when he saw that the blond sent to fly the boys in one fell swoop. It was something surprising to see, more because those boys were bigger in height being almost twice the blondo, and also a little more robust thanks to their gifts that gave them the appearance of animals.

And unbeknownst to her, that day would mark the beginning of their friendship. When I can see that he won, it was to help him in case he was hurt, but it was not like that, the boy was fine. And as I mentioned, that started their friendship, over the years they got to know each other better, so much so that from one moment to another, she began to visit the boy at home, they began to go to school together, spending the holidays together, even once she took him to visit his grandparents in a village, spending a part of the summer vacation together.

In short, they have been together for a decade, and in all that time, I notice that Naruto never had friends his age, in fact, he never really had any friends. And that was due to his way of being, with the passage of time I notice that he was very reserved, it could be said that only she knew how he really was, he was a good boy, he had good reasons, but the way he wanted to do good was not correct.

She was scared when she learned that Naruto was going to be sent to jail, after having almost killed a man, when she was told what he did, she was terrified and thought it was all over for her best friend. I sincerely thought about what the hell Naruto thought to do that, I didn't understand what he could have failed, I always try to be by his side to avoid that, I just prayed to God that they would not sentence him to life imprisonment or even death.

And again, God heard their prayers, since later it was known that the man who almost killed, and which was in a delicate state. He was a dangerous serial rapist, who had raped at least more than 1000 women in 10 years, when he learned that, he tried to use that information to see if he could save him, and of course, try to use his name and recognition so that he did not go to prison.

Thank God again, everything went well, I managed to free him from all those charges by having arrested a serial rapist, although of course, it was not fast, still today they had to send a report to the judge so that he knew that the boy fulfilled his hours of "community work". But at the slightest mistake he made, he would be sent to prison.

Just sighing while eating and remembering all that and other things that happened with the blue oji, he really worried about Naruto. And now more than ever he was, he didn't even answer his messages sometimes, and you're last two weeks he barely had any contact, something that was due to the training that he had personally requested from Director Nedzu, he just hoped that with that training, the boy had become more aware of everything.

Just hearing how several fireworks began to explode, and hearing the scream of many people inside the stadium, several holographic screens appeared outside the venue, showing Present Mic smiling.

"Get all the media together! This year all the young people of the academy will release their youth to run as if they were wild colts. The Yuuei sports festival begins! Are you ready?!"

The festival was about to start, he just threw the disposable fret in the trash to continue with his work, the good thing is that thanks to the screens, he was not going to miss his friend's performance.

While outside everything was excitement before the start of the event, inside the facilities, specifically in the rest area that was class 1-A, all the boys were in a sea of emotions, some were calm, others excited, and others nervous before the start of the games. In one of the many months, there were Izumi, Uraraka, Mina, Jirou and Momo, who only saw the Uzumaki who was immersed in their thoughts.

"You know, I'm really starting to worry about him," Ashido declared, looking at the fact that his companion was self-exile.

- And can you blame him? Yes what he said to Yaomomo is true, it is not easy to forget someone who left and we cared a lot.

"Listen, and if we do something to try to cheer him up," the chestnut movie suggested to her companions.

- How can we do? - I ask the green movie to his companions, but before any could answer, they only saw how Todoroki walked to the table of the blondo, to get in front of him.

A moment of tension formed in the room, the instant they saw how both collided looks. Only one showed an empty expression in his eyes.

"Uzumaki. Looking at things objectively, it is obvious that you are stronger than me... that all of us—he declared seriously, sharpening his gaze, causing more than one to accept that with discouragement. "But as you've told us a few times, just because you have a strong Quirk doesn't mean you are. That's why I'll beat you at the festival—no one was so surprised, they were expecting that kind of statement from another of the strongest in the class.

Even among them, they all knew that there was a certain hierarchy of power among all of them. And in the first place was the Uzumaki, having great power and use of it, and the fact that he seemed to think about strategies at the time of battle, gave him more power points. Being followed by Todoroki, then followed Bakugou, and in fourth place was Midoriya, being the only girl who competed with her male friends.

They made up the top 4 of the strongest in the class. So everyone understood if more than one of them declared war right now. But all of them in some way, noticed that the blondo had had a sudden change in his attitude, making him have an air of "Do not disturb or I will kill you".

- Hey, hey, hey! Why are you starting a fight so suddenly? — Kirishima intervened and got up from his seat, to try to stop a possible fight.

"We're not here to play friends," Shoto replied to remove his partner's hand from his shoulder.

"You really act like a little boy— I speak for the first time the oji-blue to get up, and face the pelibicolor, making more than one swallow dry before that. "You don't understand either, you say we didn't come here to play friends, but you're here playing hero. You don't know what you say, you don't know what you're talking about, no matter who it is, I'll defeat him no matter what—was the statement Naruto blurted out to the whole class, making some nervous, especially seeing those lifeless eyes.

"Come on, come on, calm down both— I try to calm the redhead while sweating from nerves, he just turned to see his other companions and ask for help, but I notice that everyone was reluctant to intervene.

But the sound of a bell made the atmosphere change, everyone saw how the door of their room was opened, and show their master Ectoplasm, or rather, a copy of the ghostly hero.

"It's time, everyone outside," the teacher ordered the boys, who were thankful for that. They only saw the blond walk first, passing even by the side of the professional hero. - What are you waiting for? Move," the philosophy teacher ordered the boys again.

"Hey! Pay attention, audience! Get ready, media! The exciting and exciting U.A. sports tournament is about to begin! Are you all ready?! Give a big welcome to first-year students!"

"Oh, is it going to start yet?" —

—As always, the opening act is striking, typical of the U.A—

—This year will be interesting, after all, the boys survived the attack of real villains—

- Your son studies at the U.A., right, Uzumaki-san? — was the question asked by a woman of about 25 years old, short brown hair, crimson eyes with a slanted pupil, snow-white skin, and who also had a horn coming out of her forehead which had a red tip. His name is Hawako Isshino.

"That's Isshino-san, he's one of the first-year kids," was Kaguya's answer as she watched the U.A. sports festival begin.

—Wow, I'm really surprised that I decided to leave him at the academy after what happened— commented a young man about 25 years old, navy blue hair still side like a bangs, the sclera was still blue with white iris and torn pupil, his skin was a little pale blue too, in addition to presenting gills in the neck. His name is Nashiyu Kibun.

"Well, to tell you the truth I thought about taking him out, but he begged me not to do that, and that was certainly something that was going to happen when he became a professional hero," the silver-movie lied with a slight smile.

She didn't really try to get it out, although Yu did want to do it for a few minutes. But both remembered that Naruto could not leave the academy, or else he would be sent to prison. But anyway, today that the festival started, he wanted to stay at home to watch the event in the comfort of the armchair, but he had to work. But at least he was fortunate enough to have a television in the conference room of his apartment, where he worked while watching the festival unfold.

- Nervous? - The white-haired woman just looked at her co-worker, the moment she watched as her nails hit the table.

"I'm sorry," the former matriarch of the shinobi apologized sadly.

"Don't worry Uzumaki-san, we understand, after all, a father will always be looking out for his children," the man said with a smile.

"We are here to support your son too, I'm sure your son won," the woman said with emotion.

"Thanks to both of them," he thanked his companions for the oji-pearl.

He only fixed his eyes on the screen, at the moment he observed how Naruto was the first to appear on screen, being followed by all the other boys in his class.

"Yuuei's sports festival! Where apprentices from the world of heroes aim for the top of the top! Our great annual competition! And let me guess, didn't you all come to see them, didn't you? The newly arrived miracle stars who with nerves of steel faced a group of villains! From the heroism department The freshman class! They're here for class 1-A, right?!"

"Come on, Naruto-kun, you can," thought the ancient chakra mother, giving her support to the blondo.

"Wow... it's a lot of people," Midoriya said with fear, as I watched all the people screaming with excitement.

"No doubt there are many people, some may be nervous about showing their skills in front of several eyes," Iida said, looking at each side.

"Wow... Everyone is praising us... I'm already getting a little nervous... What about you Bakugou? - asked Kirishima looking at the explosive blond.

"There's no way I'm going to get nervous about something like this, all you have is stage fright, loser," the boy said seriously.

"They are followed by class B! Here come classes C, D and E of the general education department! And the F, G and H classes of the support department! Now the administration department, I, J and K! All U.A freshmen are here!"

"Man, they treat us like we're just extras," said a guy from the general department.

"What a bummer," a girl supported her partner.

All the boys were gathering in front of the presentation box, where more than one recognized the teacher Midnight who had a big smile on her face, observing all the young people in front of her, prepared for the massacre ... that is, for the struggle, that, for the struggle.

- Well, well, everyone quiet! - I order the blackhair that whipped his short whip in the air.

- Hey, look at that! It's the heroine +18 Midnight! She is the main referee for the freshmen! —

- Isn't the director supposed to? —

—He is in charge of supervising the third-year zone—

— ¿+18? Is that okay? This is just a high school — Tokoyami asked his classmates.

- Silence! My presence here is perfectly fine! Now representing the students of class 1-A, its president Uzumaki Naruto! - I call the professional to the blondo.

Everyone watched as the blondo walked slowly through the crowd, many watching him with an attitude of few friends, and others with anger at seeing that look of disinterest and boredom he had. As if this was nothing important to him, as if this was a waste of time, as if it was just a game. It really made them angry to see that expression.

"It was to be expected, after all he is our president," Kirishima commented as he watched his companion go up to the stage, taking the place.

The Uzumaki only turned to see his teacher, who gave him a smile while winking at him, and with a wave of his hand said "ok" secretly. The blue-eye only sighed to see all the competitors, all lined up in rows, all neatly arranged and in their sports suits, like soldiers ready to go to war, to his mind of a moment came the image of several hooded men and women, while they wore white masks without expressions. Everyone present saw that he closed his eyes to put a hand to his head, making everyone look strangely at the boy, while others were worried.

- Are you okay? — I question the black-haired approaching Naruto, but just look at a sharp look, which made him a little scared.

"To be a hero is to sacrifice. Close your eyes in the sunlight, open them in the shadows. That's the true form of a hero. The one who fights for what is right without asking for anything has changed, without demanding anything. Only by acting for the sake of the innocent and the weak, to protect and save them, even if it means giving our own life to save them. A hero understands the path he takes, the difficulties he has, and must have the will to face everything that life imposes on him, however painful it may be. This event is not a simple game, it is to show the world, the people that the heroes are here to save them. And before finishing, some words that an old acquaintance once told me "The circumstances in which one is born do not matter, it is what one does with the gift of life that tells us who we are". Having a powerful Quirk doesn't make you the best or the strongest. What makes you strong is your will to get ahead. Good luck to all, and may God protect you all—he finished speaking the shinobi to get off the stage, and walk back to his group.

"You know, the boy is very mature for his age, maybe you should learn something from him," Kamui commented mockingly to his blonde partner.

"We came to help guard the place, but we also came to see if there were any new recruits. I think the guy would be a good addition for us," Death Arms added.

—"As always you act great without realizing it," was the thought Yu had when listening to his friend's opening speech.

"If Uzumaki-san will allow me to say, your son will undoubtedly become the best hero in history," said the blue-haired boy.

"I think the same, and that he is a handsome boy is a bonus, be careful Uzumaki-san, or he could be a grandmother before his time— joked the girl when she saw how her boss's son was, without a doubt he must be a heartbreaker for his image.

—"Those words... More than sounding like those of an encouragement speech, they are like those said by ninjas. You haven't really left your past behind," Kaguya thought with some concern.

The people only applauded at his words, raising the spirits of the battle, and although some did not want to say or admit it, the little unjustified resentment they had on the boy, he left when he saw that he was not a presumed to have a powerful Quirk, and in a way, I encourage everyone to give their maximum effort. The boy's classmates only looked sideways at his partner, even they were motivated to hear those words.

- Alright, with that we can move on to today's first event! — I shout as a large holographic screen appeared with the design of a bingo machine. - In the "preliminaries" as they are called! A lot of good people end up drowning in their tears every year! And the first round of this year is...—all the spectators were excited, the huge screen kept passing the games at a high speed, at the moment that everyone slammed on the brakes. - This! The obstacle course! - I shout at the moment that everyone was surprised by that, they never expected the first competition to be an obstacle course. — It's a race between the 11 classes! The track is a 4-kilometer ring around the stadium! - I declare the black hair at the moment that the metal doors that were in that place opened leaving in sight some large lanes where everyone would leave.

All the competitors walked to the starting gate, everyone was getting ready when the starting whistle was given, some were jumping to warm up, it was obvious that the first event was going to be close. All the students looked at each other, even classmates challenged each other with their eyes, but they pushed it away, the moment they saw the president of class A, everyone in the place knew that he was a real threat.

"We always talk about our freedom on campus. Well, that's what it's all about! They can do anything! Anything as long as everyone stays on the track! — he said making everyone prepare for the race, some began to activate their Quirks, and others were preparing to fight. "Then let's get started... In their marks...— the sirens were gradually extinguished, while everyone prepared for the race. - Get started! — I scream when the last siren went off and gave the starting beep.

All the students ran away, some using their gifts to try to stop the advance of others, and a few more decided to jump to catch those they considered a challenge. Among them was the blond, many tried to jump towards the Uzumaki to try to catch it, more before anyone did, all watched as their target disappeared from the place, leaving them confused, while a few saw it, these being their classmates and other students. Everyone watched as Naruto jumped from wall to wall, completely ignoring them, some who had Quirks capable of throwing projectiles, attacked the ninja, but their attempt was in vain, since their objective dodged them all without even turning to see.

Todoroki only growled at the moment he released his power, creating a huge blizzard of wind, freezing the floor and walls, applied more force to try to stop the blonde, but his attempt was in vain, since his prey ended up escaping from his trap.

"And Uzumaki takes the lead in this battle! Just look at how fast the boy is!"

The spectators only screamed with excitement as they watched the boy run at a high speed, leaving all the other competitors behind. More his excitement increased to see how behind the boy came out more boys and girls using their skills. The shinobi of the blade completely ignored the screams of excitement, focusing on only one thing, finishing the race, he did not need to show his powers at all, only his speed was enough now, and with that in mind, he began to run harder leaving the boys completely behind.

- I won't let you win so easily damn! — Katsuki declared while flying thanks to his Quirk.

"You're not the only one who wants to win this, Uzumaki-san!" — Yaoyorozu shouted that she used her gift to create several metal bars and get propelled, thus avoiding the ice rink that Todoroki created.

But they were not the only ones who struggled to reach the blue oji, again some boys who had gifts that allowed them to throw projectiles, attacked again, and now one of the many students fired a huge fireball that was going at high speed towards Naruto. The audience was excited as such, and just waited for the attack to hit or the boy to do something to avoid or repel it.

They only watched as the president of class A turned to kick her, and send her to heaven, resuming the race. That only caused most to get angry to see that the blondo was not taking them seriously, after all, he repelled the attack and ran back, he did not even dare to give a return attack, in fact, he did not even turn to see them, so with that, many got angry and ended up launching their attacks.

Viewers as well as viewers saw how rays of light and electricity, fireballs, earth stakes, ice, water and other things shot out to stop him, even Todoroki joined the fight to stop the advance of the ninja. The suspense invaded them all when they saw that the attacks were a few centimeters away from hitting him, and at the last second, the blond jumped while turning, the students only observed an expression of indifference in their enemy, and saw how he fell to the ground with some elegance, and move away from them.

That only increased everyone's anger, weren't they a challenge for him? Didn't he consider them a threat? Did he see them as inferior beings? Did he think he was the strongest of all because he was in class A?

"That was close, Uzumaki is still in the lead! Don't you think the boy should attack and not escape, Eraserhead?!"

"He doesn't escape, he's just smart. Stopping to attack would only take up his time, and seeing his speed and agility, he doesn't need to attack. He is saving his energies for upcoming events. If you use all your energy in the first event, you will have difficulties in the following"

"You're absolutely right buddy! No doubt some of them educate them well!"

"You are wrong, everything that happens today is a product of themselves. His will is strong, and although Uzumaki has the upper hand, there is no need to claim victory yet."

While both professionals continued talking, the ninja only had his eyes set on the front, his vision changed to the moment he now saw as if he was jumping from tree to tree, while several of his companions followed him. But I come back to reality when I avoid a direct hit by an admissions test robot. He stopped when he saw that he was being surrounded by several of those mechanical beings who saw him, while that single red eye they had glowed brightly.

- Objective seen! —

— Multiple threats detected! —

- Destroy the intruders! —

Naruto just stood still as he watched all those machines surround him, all of them exceeded 4 meters, he immediately recognized them as the artificial enemies of the entrance exam for heroes. But it was not only them, I also look at those robots that were thin and tall that measured at least 2 and a half meters, some similar to ninjas, with great speed thanks to the wheels they had on their legs instead of feet. But he only felt how the ground shook, he just looked up, to see those huge mechanical beings that stood among all the other robots.

Many boys were stunned by the army of robots in front of them, some just smiled while sweating in fear, others thought it was a joke, even the boys in class A took a bad taste in their mouths when they saw their first enemies.

- This is a joke, right? —.

- Did those kids in class A face those things? —.

"They must be us, how the hell are we going to defeat those things?" —.

"The first obstacle is shown! The robots of the entrance exam of the hero course! The Evil Bots! And the boss of them all, the Inferno Robots!"

"Wow, who would say, the U.A. really has no compassion for anyone," said the highly muscled hero, while watching the race of the first-year boys.

"In my time they were not so great, without a doubt they improve them with each generation to come," Kamui said with his arms folded.

"Heck, those robots really are a pain in my butt, I still remember when I took the entrance exam too," the purple-horned blonde muttered as she watched things.

- Do you think the boy will manage to get rid of them? - questioned the hero with heavy armbands.

Yu just stared as the cameras focused on his friend, being surrounded by several robots that moved slowly around him, waiting for him to act first.

"Yes, I know Naruto-kun, and I know he made it out of that one— the heroes only saw that big smile on their companion's face, saying those words confidently in his voice.

"Wow, the U.A doesn't really beat around the bush," Kibun said when he saw how the first enemies of teenagers were robots.

- Did your son face those things, Uzumaki-san? — asked the woman pointing to the robots, only to receive a nod of head. "Wow, I had heard before that the U.A had a very difficult admission exam, but that's crazy," I declare when I saw how the cameras focused on those huge robots of about 30 meters, and then focused on the son of his boss. "Come on, Naruto-kun, you can," the woman encouraged the blondo.

"Come on boy, you can win this," the man also supported the blue eye.

"You can Naruto, don't give up," Kaguya thought as she clenched her fists tightly.

Naruto only clenched his right fist, to destroy one of those robots that went to attack him in one fell swoop, stepped aside to avoid a blow, and only took the robot's shoulders, to smash it to the ground, and hit it to destroy its metal face into thousands of pieces. The other robots shot out to attack the blue oji, this under the gaze of everyone, who thought that the boy had been left out of the game.

But they only saw how all those robots ended up in pieces, while in the center the Uzumaki was as if nothing, while in his right hand there was a robot head, which he simply crushed, to see the inferno robots that came walking at a slow pace, but they were not the only ones, more robots came walking at a slow pace, while some rotated their metal tweezers, or hit the ground with their tails. He just turned to catch something with his left hand, and watched as one of the many guys in the support department smiled with some arrogance.

He only felt something spread in his hand forcibly, and then he saw how thousands of metal bars began to surround his body, a bar lengthened to reach his chest and expand. All the onlookers and students watched as what he caught was a trap, as several metal rods and plates were formed, his arms were forcibly bent, he was forcibly kneeled, he felt his body being squeezed tightly, and then a metal mask similar to a dog muzzle appeared on his face, And after about 30 seconds, everyone present saw how the blond was gagged with that metal armor.

Both arms were bent while he had them behind his head, his legs were open in a really awkward position, and his back was stuck to the ground. All under the gaze of the public.

"And in an unexpected twist, Uzumaki has been captured in what is an armor-shaped prison! What will he do now to get rid of this?!"

- That's cheating! Get that damn cheater out of it! — Takeyama angrily shouted when she saw that her friend was caught in that damn thing.

"Don't worry, even if it's hard to accept, it's completely legal. The boys in the hero class are allowed to use their gifts, and they can use their gadgets," Death Arms said, trying to calm his classmate.

- Just my ovaries! That's cheating everywhere you look at it! — he claimed heroin again furiously.

"Calm down Mt. Lady, everyone is watching us," the wooden hero said, making his companion see how many people were watching him.

- What? Do I have something on my face or what? — The heroes noticed that the anger was evident in their partner, and they had only one thought in common, that boy was too important to her to make her lose her composure in public.

- Buuuuuu! That's cheating! — said the woman with the horn on her forehead, throwing a ball of paper at the TV in the living room.

"To me it also seems like a cheating, but unfortunately it is not forbidden to use equipment in the race," commented the fish boy.

"It doesn't matter, besides just look, that's not fair, they have him as if he were a monster," Isshino said before the injustice of the event.

For her part, the goddess only growled and pressed hard the pencil she had in her hands, she was very angry to see how they caught the blonde, so much so that she did not notice how some veins were marked in her eyes. Despite no longer having her chakra, at least not that divine and monstrous chakra, she was left with a little, enough to create a clone of shadows while escaping, she was no longer possessed of that force that gave her the name of the "Rabbit Goddess" as she was called before by the shinobi civilization.

"Oh, that's cheating," Hawks said as he watched the live broadcast of the U.A. sporting event on his cell phone.

- What the hell are you doing? We have to be alert—I demand a female voice, making the blond turn to look at his partner with a smile.

I only observe a woman with long white hair that reached her waist, with two large rabbit ears with a slight curvature at the end of them, red eyes, tanned skin with great musculature, not enough to make her look like a man of the size of All Might, But if to give her a sexy and strong figure, she wore a sleeveless white jersey suit with a dark purple trim around the shoulders and waist, a wide yellow crescent moon design on her chest and two thick metal plates at the waist. He wears purple thigh-high boots to complement his leotard, with more plates around the heel and toe areas, making his feet look like a rabbit's. She also has white gloves on her hands, with long cuffs, sporting small triangular bumps around the edges. This is Rumi Usagiyama A.K.A Rabbit Hero Mirko.

"Don't worry, today everyone has their eyes on the U.A. event, so you can take a break or two to eat your carrots, Lola," replied the winged hero with some mockery, only to use his wings and step aside, thus avoiding a kick from his partner.

"Tell me like that again, and I'll break your balls," I threaten the rabbit heroine.

"Come on, come on, I'm just playing," Keigo said without erasing that smile from his face.

"Damn, since the hell they asked me to work with you," I speak the white movie seriously while observing the city of Yokohama, specifically in Kamino.

She was not one to be in teams, she thought that making teams of heroes was only for the weak, it was for the cowards who did not believe in their strength and power. She thought that a true hero was one who could do everything without help, he just needed to use his true power and nothing else. On top of that, having companions only meant having unnecessary burden on their shoulders, since if any companion was injured, and the villain was about to escape. He had to let the bad guy run away to save a dirty idiot, which he did not accept at all. He considered that catching a dangerous villain was more important than saving a hero, after all, everyone who is involved in this world, knew that this profession meant certain death, maybe not now, not tomorrow, but it was clear that one day they would die.

But a villain, leaving him one more day on the streets meant more innocent people dead, she was not dumb, nor as soft as all the other heroes. She liked to give a good beating to the bad guys, maybe breaking a bone or two. Thanks to that he has had certain problems with his superiors, who told him that he used excessive brute force, but if by breaking both arms of a bad guy, he made sure to save the life of a child. He accepted the price to pay.

Just sigh while watching all those people walk as if nothing, lately in Kamino many missing people have been reported, and in addition to that, corpses have also been found in alleys, all naked and with surgical wounds, and without some organs.

Just thinking about it gave him a headache, not only did they now have these mysterious disappearances in their hands, the discovery of bodies without organs. But there was also the fact of the recent sighting of the hero killer, which until now had killed about 10 heroes in less than 3 days. It was as if the world had decided to bring many problems at the same time.

I look at her "partner" who watched that stupid child's game, the sports festival of the U.A, although it is true that she once participated in them, seeing them now did not attract her attention, she should focus on her work, and not waste time.

—Oh, now things got interesting— the white hair just turned to walk to his partner, and see what happened.

- What? It's boring to be here watching—was the statement Mirko gave to watch the sporting event, watching as the cameras focused on a tied boy.

"What will Uzumaki do now?! How will he get out of that trap?!"

The blondo just stared at the sky, this trap was nothing, just tensed his muscles to apply force, some bars broke. It is true, he would have destroyed it from the first moment he had it in his hand, he did not know very well because he did not destroy it from the first moment, or he had to return it to its creator. Perhaps he did not because it brought back certain memories.

I only apply more force to break the ties, I hear how several of those robots were going towards him, he felt when several jumped to fall on him, and in addition to seeing several shadows fall, he clenched his fists tightly, it was certain that he was going to dislocate his arms, but it did not matter, when they were a few meters away from falling to him, and about to free himself to counterattack.

I watch in amazement as some of them flew away, one shot out thanks to a cannon shot, another was caught by several vines to be crushed and thrown like garbage, I watch as another was destroyed in pieces thanks to a direct blow from a shadow, and one more exploded out of nowhere. He remained motionless, although it is not that he could move anyway, he kept patience until 5 figures were present.

- What do they do? - asked Naruto looking at his "saviors", I look at how around him were Izumi, Momo, Jirou, Uraraka and that girl from class B named Ibara.

"I think it's obvious, we're going to help you," replied the rocker girl as she stood guard when she saw more of those enemies surrounding them.

"Resist Uzumaki-kun, we will help you," Uraraka declared, who tried to take off his friend's armor, but only realized that it was impossible, since that thing was strong.

"Don't worry, we'll release you soon," I muse the blackhair to create a small electric saw, ready to start cutting.

"If you do, you'll cut me too," he just stopped to stare into the blonde's eyes. "This thing, this kind of trap, although it looks robust, it is not at all. If you don't calculate correctly, it's more than certain that you will cut me—I clarify the shinobi to stare into the eyes of his companion, who swallowed dry to see the tool.

"We'll find another way then," Momo replied.

"There is no other way, that is the only one that exists. It's this, or leave here, and I suggest you leave. First of all none of you should be helping me, this is a battle, just run—all the girls looked at their partner, their cold expression making it difficult for them to know if that was an order or a claim.

- Why are you like this? - Izumi asked seriously, looking at her companion on the ground.

"This is a competition, a pitched battle of all against all. Stopping to help me is a serious mistake, I am just a dead weight, you cannot lose for someone like me. So run, or you will lose—seriously musito the ninja.

- Well, I'll lose if necessary! — I exclaim the Yaoyorozu seriously. —A hero must always be willing to help anyone, he must even be prepared to give his life to save others. That's what you said in the speech, and that's what I'm going to do. Although it is true that I want to win, I cannot simply leave such a comrade—I clarify the class black hair to create giant tweezers, and try to cut the trap, but his strength was not much, and he could hardly exert precision on the same tool.

"Don't be silly, get out of here, just like you, you'll lose if you try to help me," I point out firmly.

"That doesn't matter, as Yaoyorozu-san said, we won't leave a companion like that, and even less if he's a friend," the chestnut movie joined to help his companion.

"I'm already sorry about this," said a male voice that everyone recognized, as the girls saw Todoroki put his right hand on the ground. —I'm sorry, but I won't even consider you— I used to launch a huge cold wave that froze all the robots in the place, and even reached 3 inferno robots.

But it was not only them, the blond felt the ice on his back, and the girls only saw how his feet were also imprisoned by the power of the Todoroki. Who began to run, and then create an ice rink in which he glided with complete naturalness.

"I know I told them, now they are all trapped by the ice," I scold the girls to the girls, who were just trying to free themselves. "Create spikes to break the ice, and try to hit him at the base, and hurry up, Todoroki froze those things in a dangerous position— all the girls heard a certain tone of uneasiness in the boy's voice.

"We won't leave without you," replied the Green Movie heiress of One For Alla.

"There is no time for such stupidities, if those things fell on you were seriously injured, none of you could bear such a nightmare," the shinobi declared.

- And you can? — Jirou challenged when she received a pickaxe to get out of the ice.

"Yes, remember that I fought that thing Nomu, and fought at the same level as All Might," I point to the blondo, making everyone, except the girl in class B, put on a face of remembering that.

"That doesn't matter, anyway we must get you out of here, you yourself said that a Quirk did not mean you were invincible— Ibara spoke who also took one of those tools, and try to get free.

- Why are you here? We barely crossed a few words, you shouldn't have come to help me either.

"You saved me from falling, now it's my turn to return the favor," was the simple answer the B-class green movie gave the ninja.

Naruto just watched as those robots began to give way under the weight, heard the ice grinding and saw how a part fell near Uraraka. And worst of all, none of them were close to breaking free. He just turned his eyes to see sideways as Izumi entered a fighting pose so to speak, as several red lines began to appear on his body.

"If we cannot free you, at least I will prevent those things from falling on us," declared the Midoriya, breaking the ice on her feet.

"Don't do it, you can't control your Quirk well, if you do you will end up hurt, just free yourself and help the others— ordered the shinobi when he saw another piece of frozen metal falling near them.

The other students barely moved, some barely reacted to seeing those things, others preferred to escape from the sides while fighting. The place was practically like a small battlefield, and others were trapped by the ice of Todoroki, it was something that really did not surprise him, most really only cared about themselves.

- Just go now! - I scream seriously when I see that another part of frozen metal, almost ends up crushing the girl of class B.

He opened his eyes as much as he could, as he watched as all the girls stopped hitting the ice to free themselves, and prepare to destroy the debris that was going to fall.

"No, we'll just leave like this and leave you here. We are friends, and friends help each other through thick and thin, at all times, even if that person doesn't want the help. A true friend is always there for you," Uraraka replied with a smile, the instant the blond stared at that.

"We will always be together, even if you don't want me in your life, I want you in mine. I will always be there for you, at all times, I will never leave you, Naruto-kun"

The robots finally gave in, as they rained down on the boys. Izumi only prepared to jump and destroy whatever debris she could, Momo created some grenade throwers to try to destroy others, Ibara only made her hair spread out to whip them, and Jirou and Uraraka only swallowed dry, while waiting for the blow.

"If you get to find people who care a lot, even to be with you even if you don't want to. Don't let them go, because if those people are willing to fight for you. It means they care about you a lot, and that's rare to find. Do not isolate yourself, if you trust, you will see that there are good people in the world"

Ice debris fell to the ground, creating a cloud of cold air, while pieces of frozen metal fell near some boys, including Class A boys. Everyone in the place kept silent, thinking that the boys ended up injured, since they were trapped by that ice.

- Look there! —

Each of the spectators, as well as the cameras focused several meters away from the rubble, where a layer of dust was formed, which gradually disappeared, making many scream with emotion to see how several meters from where it was before, the Uzumaki was standing, but he was not alone, since they saw that he had the girls who tried to help him. Two of them in his arms, others grabbed his shirts by his hands, which looked like they were bent by his strange shape, and one more that he carried with his teeth, as if he were a kind of puppy.

The blondo simply dropped the girls heavily to the ground, they all growled at the blow, only to open their eyes and realize that they were no longer trapped in the ice. They all observed the place where they heard footsteps, to see the blond standing, with his arms dislocated in a really uncomfortable position.

- Are they okay? - I ask the blondo looking at the girls.

"Yes," Momo whispered to regain her senses, and see the blonde's arms. - For god's sake, your arms! - She exclaimed to get up and try to help her companion, but only saw with surprise how the blondo turned away from her.

"Don't worry, I'll be fine. There's still a lot left, I suggest you hurry up—I comment to turn around, and when I was about to follow the race, I just look over his shoulder at the girls. "Thank you," and with that said, I'm back on track.

The girls only watched as the Uzumaki ran with his dislocated arms, which moved with the wind, but despite that, he did not stop. Some boys who noticed that they were being hit by the blond, tried to attack him with their Quirks or with their tools, but all ended up being beaten and sent flying by the blows of the boy.

"And Uzumaki is positioned again at the front! His speed and attacks are a fatal combination!"

The blue eye just kept running, stretched out his right arm to finish breaking the metal bars, putting his arm back in place, took his right hand to remove the little of that trap on his other arm, and put it back in place. He set his eyes to the front when he saw that he was about to reach Todoroki, and I notice that he noticed, since he tried to freeze him by throwing a wave of ice, he only jumped to avoid the attack, he fell several meters away from the boy half and half.

And he just kept running, responding to attacks and countering it, was a waste of time. He increased his speed when he saw how the second obstacle was in front of him. A kind of cliff so to speak, as I could see how there were a few pillars of earth.

"And the second obstacle of this race presents itself! If you fall you are out! If you don't want to fall, crawl! It's the fall!"

The spectators only saw how the blond boy seemed to increase speed, they thought he was crazy not to stop and see how to cross, but they were stunned to see how at the end of the road, the Uzumaki made a huge jump with all his strength, breaking even a piece of land that fell, and cracking another part. They only saw how he flew over that great distance, and then fell on the other side, he went around the ground to recompose himself and continue on his way.

"And in a single jump, Uzumaki passed the second test without problems! What the **** happened to that Eraser boy?! Now it is positioned in the first place without anyone competing with it!"

- You can, Naruto-kun! Show them who's in charge!" Yu shouted at the top of his lungs, observing his friend's incredible feat.

"Hell, the boy really is good," the man with great muscles muttered with surprise, seeing how he jumped in one fell swoop, his companion's friend passed that cliff with great ease.

"Oh God, today's generation is really strong and amazing, at this rate I think we will be replaced in a matter of months," the wooden hero commented with a certain depressive air when he saw the boy's abilities.

"Don't worry, that won't happen, you're exaggerating things. But you have to admit that this boy will become a great hero if he is trained well—Death argues seriously.

"So it will be, and to do that, we must teach him," added the blonde to see her companions. "Naruto-kun must be with us, so we must recruit him in the end," I declare the giant heroine with a smile.

He only saw the screen again, while his friend was shown to go in the first place, without anyone stopping him, this was already won, Naruto was going to win the first event, although it is true that he barely showed his true abilities, although that he attributed it to the small paranoia that the blue eye has always had.

"Hell, that was amazing to see. Your son is really amazing, Uzumaki-san," said the fish boy to the ancient chakra mother.

"I say the same, pass that in one jump, hell, your son has undoubtedly already won this, boss," commented the one-horned girl.

"There is no need to claim victory yet, it is true that my son is strong, but the other boys are not out yet. Sometimes you can get some surprises—it was the only thing the former goddess said, without taking her eyes off the TV.

"Look at that potential," Hawks said of his younger brother's performance.

"Please, I could do better," said the rabbit heroine.

- What's going on? Are you jealous of a high school boy? - I ask with some mockery the blond.

"Come on, you give a lot of credits to the boy, it's true, I admit he's strong, but that's not enough. If we both fought, I'm sure I would defeat him in a matter of seconds—the woman who had a sneer on her face arrogantly clarified.

"I think you underestimate him a lot, just like all these guys are doing. When it comes to Naruto, you must always go with everything, or else, your defeat is inevitable—I earnestly declare the winged hero.

"Like I said, you give the boy a lot of credit," said the white hair.

"I defeat Edgeshot in a hand-to-hand battle," he revealed at the moment that he surprised his partner.

- What? — he said with some surprise to learn that.

"I know what you think, it's a joke for sure. But it's not like that, I fight him and he beat him in a hand-to-hand battle. And all because he also underestimated him, if there is something I have learned in all this time from meeting Naruto, it is that you should never treat him less. Even I would have problems if I faced him, even you would have problems. Don't treat him like a child just because of his age, believe me, he's stronger than you think— Mirko just watched his ally's expression.

She knew Hawks, after all, being heroes they work together in teams sometimes, although she does not like that very much, because of the explanation already given, that she considered weak anyone who needs help. Anyway, I had worked with him before, even with other heroes like All Might, Ryukyu, Midniht, Endeavor, the Pussycats, and other heroes. Everyone had their way of working, which of course, sometimes created problems among themselves. And as he said, he had already worked with the winged blonde before, he did not like him but not well, it could be said that he did not consider it a nuisance, he could bear it, maybe that's why sometimes they were put to work together, in short, as he has worked by his side, there are few times in which he sees that expression of absolute seriousness, and just by seeing her, she understood that that boy Naruto, was not someone to underestimate at all.

The truth was that it was not possible for that boy to have defeated a top 10 professional, but seeing that expression, as he said, he should not underestimate the boy.

"And Uzumaki Naruto reaches the last hurdle! The minefield! How will he overcome this now?! A field full of mines that were laid to be visible, but you have to be careful! These landmines are not that powerful, but they could certainly break your bones if you step on just one wrong!"

"That depends on the person."

The shinobi stopped to see the minefield, it was just as his master said, the mines were noticeable with the naked eye, only a blind man could not see them, he turned back, but did not find anyone, at least not for a few seconds, since he noticed how Todoroki and Bakugo ran, or in the case of the explosive boy, as he flew, all while the other boys were following them.

He only crouched, after a few seconds, took a big jump to fly over the area, as he did with the second obstacle, again he overcame it, but this time he did not continue running, he just stopped, crouched again and put his right hand in the mud field. I observe how Todoroki and Bakugou were the only ones who passed the minefield with complete ease, one thanks to an ice ramp, and another flying, while more competitors arrived to start crossing the field, although not all stepped well, and flew out by force of the mines.

- I'll catch up with you damn! You should never have underestimated! — shouted Bakugo looking at his companion.

"I've never done it, that's why I will fight without restrictions against you," was what he whispered in a low voice, as he exerted pressure.

Everyone was surprised by the boy's act, but everyone watched with amazement as the mines shot up to fly overhead. All the students widened their eyes, the instant the mines themselves began to glow. Time seemed to stand still for almost everyone, who tried to stop when they saw the explosives in front of them, and others simply ducked quickly to save themselves. A loud explosion was present throughout the area, a chain reaction was unleashed, at the moment that some boys were sent to fly through the skies, others were pushed to crash into the others, and few managed to protect themselves by throwing themselves to the ground.

Naruto just raised his hand, to make a big jump back, and run again, all while a giant cloud of smoke formed in the field. I just apply some futon chakra to the soles of his feet, increasing his speed. All this under the gaze of the spectators, who cheered to see that the boy was going to be the winner, after all, although some considered that was a low trick, they should give him credit, after all, it was not cheating to do that, he only did what I consider necessary to leave several out of combat.

"That boy is really strong—

—His speed and ferocity, without a doubt, make him a difficult enemy to defeat—

—This is only the first event, we will see how it acts in the following—

"He has barely shown his Quirk, he has only used his brute force nothing more—

—One prodigy among many, he will undoubtedly be the greatest hero in history—

"Heck, I'm killing everyone at once, without mercy or compassion. It's like seeing a demon—

—The demon of the U.A., wow, a somewhat terrifying title and that means everything contrary to the U.A—

—Well, the name really fits him badly, besides it could be the name that the villains come to fear one day—

- Come on, U.A. Demon! —

- You can, U.A. Demon! —

- Don't lose, let's go!

Many people began to support the blonde, and they were not the only ones. In 3 zones apart from the race field, Kaguya, Yu and Hawks supported their blonde friend, after all, he was nothing away from winning the first event. It was already decided, Naruto Uzumaki was going to win the first round of the sports festival, or so everyone thought, but from one moment to another, they noticed how a green blur appeared next to the shinobi.

Naruto only watched in surprise as someone managed to catch up with him, and his surprise was more to see how Izumi was next to him, being surrounded by a faint layer of greenish power, while small red lines surrounded his entire body.

- I will not lose, I will not fail! I must prove to the world that I am here! - I shout the Midoriya to increase their strength, entering the corridor where they left when everything started.

"I see, so that's the power of One For All. But not to its full potential, it is noticeable that it barely manages to control it. I knew it, her emotions have a lot to do when it comes to using it, her impotence and anger make her activate it without realizing it, you still have a lot to train Midoriya. Well, I guess it's time to end this"—was what the ninja thought, to shoot out by using a wind shot on the soles of his feet.

She entered the hallway like a missile, passing by her classmate, who only watched a yellow blur overcome her. She didn't have to be a genius to know that this was her partner, but even so, she wasn't going to stop, clenching her fists, and grinding her teeth, she also had an impulse. I only observe that he was close to touching the back of the blue oji, while listening to how Present Mic screamed with excitement to know who of the two was going to win, he was about 5 cm away from taking him by the shoulder, but lost it in a matter of a second when he saw that it disappeared like lightning.

"And the winner of the first event of the festival! It's A-class Uzumaki Naruto! The U.A demon is the winner!"

The audience began to shout with excitement at the winner of the race, as several fireworks exploded to celebrate the winner. All while the screens showed the blond who was in the middle of the area, with what everyone noticed as obvious fatigue, since he was bent over while his hair covered his face, not knowing that he had an expression of shock at that name, all while he heard nothing but that word.

"Get out of here you **** demon!"

"I wish you were dead!"

"You should have died that day, not my son!"

"Demon!"

"Demon!"

"Demon!"

"Demon!"

"Free me, and let's kill everyone. Then they can call you a real demon. Come on, free me, Naruto"

His mind was lost in the darkness, as people screamed with excitement at his victory, not knowing what was going on in his mind, without anyone knowing that that word only brought painful memories of his past, memories of his sins, of his blood-stained past.
