The Battle for the Princess Part 2

The battle for Himiko Toga will start in three days and Izuku has to get ready.

He steadied himself as time passed by and meditated, worked out as much as he can.

Three days passed and Izuku did think about every possibility or weakness of All Might but nothing clicked. All Might is a different level. Power, speed and experience were in another league.

He has no chance if he will fight his teacher head-on.

He has to be tricky. He will lose something important if he loses, he will lose his knight. He will lose Himiko.

Winning means Himiko can stay as a nurse but losing she will go to a heavily guarded containment.

Himiko's quirk might not be the strongest but her ability to control her surroundings make her a great person who can blend in even when they fought. Himiko gave him a hard time not by strength but by expertise.

She has to gain her freedom. He felt that if he loses, Himiko might do some drastic measures which will affect her standing much more.

Principal Nezu gave Izuku the document containing about Himiko and it disturbed him. He believes that she can change. She is doing her best to control her urges and to think about them. Himiko was just born that way and it affected her mentality and everything.

He put on the training gear and went to the designated battlefield.

-Izuku's Point of View-

I am excited.

My whole being was going to face the strongest hero. One alone who made the crime rate across the entire country go down.

It would not be unthinkable if he somehow retires; the crime rates will spike up. A being that changed the masses alone.

I will be facing a monster of proportion while I faced Sunshine. This was a different thing.

Sunshine was a trial I conquered but with huge help but this time it is me all alone.

'It is not that I am alone; I have someone who is on my side.'

She was waving like a child.

Himiko was surrounded by many heroes. I get it why. She is far too dangerous and it will be hard to overpower her.

Her honed instinct, which seems she is blessed with and her intuition, makes her dangerous if observed quite closely. She is close to Principal Nezu who has the most non-combatant prowess.

Aizawa-sensei is close to him and in between them.

I took a step forward and she waved at me. It might not show due to her smiling but her eyes are full of worries. I saw this before that eyes that seem not to match her face. She was easy to read if you disregard anything except her eyes.

"I am going now."

I smiled and assured her. This was not the time to make her worry.

Sometimes she has a look of a stone-cold killer and sometimes a girl that befits her age. I wanted her to look always like a girl that befits her age.

She looks beautiful when she is like that.

It is incredible how people can change and something about her that changed, yet I cannot see it.

No time for these thoughts.

He is waiting.

Clad in blue and red. His signature hairdo. The one who created "Plus Ultra." The monster who is number one for the longest time.

All Might.

My body is shaking. The reason might be how I highly respect him or how I fear him, or maybe just both.

He was in his fighting stance.

I powered up to 5% using One for All.

I took the first chance to attack. I go to my highest speed level that even I was amazed.

It was so fast that I can feel the feedback on my legs.

I punched All Might on the face and he flew away.

'It connected! Another one!'

I keep connecting punches and All Might was getting blown away.

This is way too easy that I felt chills on my spine.

All Might stood up and wiped the blood that was coming from his mouth.

[My turn, Midoriya-shounen] A soft-spoken voice with recognizable threatening volume.

I want to run. It was getting dangerous here.

All Might was in front of me.

'Did he teleport?'

A punch on my left cheek was felt. My body flew so fast that I cant react.

I can almost go toe to toe with Miirko-san but unable to with this hero.

Mirko-san was the fastest hero I saw but All Might made her look like a kid running against an Olympic athlete.

He was so fast that he looked as if he teleported. The only proof of him not teleporting was the cracked ground on the one he stood before.

I am still in mid-air.

'He is here?!'

I defended my face and he went for a body blow. The punch alone made me felt my whole soul was about to leave my body.

That is why he gave me a few good hits.

This was the reason.

[Your punches are light]

I looked up to my hero. I tried standing up but my body is not responding.

It's better if I sleep and try to find another way with Himiko.

"…!" I can hear someone.

"….ing!" A female voice.

"My king! Stand!" It was Himiko.

My body turned left on its own and an impact was made. It dodged on its own. The instincts that I've honed answered that.

'If I get hit by that. I might not be able to stand for a few weeks.'

All Might was serious. It was scary whoever dares to be in front of him deserves respect.

"King!!" A desperate voice. I looked at where it was coming from and Himiko was locked down by heroes.

She was struggling.

'Damn it!'

I tried standing but it was no use.

I took off my bracelet and glasses with the last of my strength.

My energy was coming back.

Try to control the flow of Sunshine. I can't win alone using speed and strength. All Might was above and beyond.

I took a deep breath and released a high temperature.

It healed my damaged areas.

I was taking the safest approach.

This is what he means by my punch is light.

'I was disrespecting my hero. I am sorry, All Might. I will go all out now.'

"Aaah!!"

I screamed with my whole lungs intact.

The forest was burning.

Every step was heavier than when I faced Nomu.

'I will die if this keeps up. Please answer my call.'

"Rhitta!" With my deep voice, I pleaded the object that will help me.

Soon enough, an axe flew so fast. I caught it in my hand which dealt considerable damage to my arm but healed instantly.

'Next time, I will make sure Rhitta is beside me. The impact was too strong.'

All of Sunshine was focusing on Rhitta.

It felt Rhitta was a gun and the Sunshine was the bullet and I am the trigger.

"Cruel Smash!"

A line of heatwave flew towards All Might and he punched through it.

This was borderline cheating. His strength was too much but I cannot give up.

I cannot prolong this fight. All Might will not enter my range since it is highly volatile here.

'He entered!'

I felt the impact on my abdomen and threw me afar.

The axe that I was holding was on the ground.

All Might was on the move.

"Solar Smash!"

Using One for All and Sunshine with my fist.

I head on took All Might's normal punch.

I felt my bones breaking but I will not yield.

There is someone waiting for me. I must win.

'I must win!'

"I must win!!"

We both have flown away. It was a draw but that was enough to buy time.

I jumped as far as I can and stretched out my hand.

"Rhitta!" The axe once flew again to my rescue.

My last strength is here. One blow to eviscerate this ordeal.

I can feel the Sunshine on my body getting taken away.

Rhitta felt it was exciting. I will answer your expectation as well as hers.

I briefly looked at her and smiled.

/Cruel Sun\

A fireball consisting of the highest temperature was going to land.

All Might will dodge it.

He did but…

It will not end there.

/Solar flare\

This was the first time I used and even know this technique yet it felt so natural.

I can hear my voice changing. It was the assimilation with Sunshine.

I will slowly take over this power and make it mine.

The sun exploded along with my consciousness.

A/N: I have a discord account and it will help if you guys can help me fetch in on some ideas as I am busy straightening up my life.

My notes will now be at the end of every chapter.

As always, I give you my thanks for everything.

For taking your time to read our work.

See ya, tomorrow.

P.S. Cannot wait for the Attack on Titan movie
