18 Sports Festival 6: Individual Battles Part: 2

"Come on everyone, let's see the greatest talents of the UA!!" High command said with his typical speech about talent as it was becoming common.

Last laser was next to him looking at the arena with a very subtle expectation, after all he wanted to see what his student could do at a disadvantage.

"On the left side we have the homeless guy Aizawa Shota!!" High command said with great excitement as he pointed to the left side of the arena.

'This should already be considered professional negligence right?' Aizawa thought in annoyance after being called a homeless for the fifth time since the third part began.

"And on the right side we have Inumi Kōtatsu, a girl expert in hitting to get you out of the arena I don't know I haven't seen much of her!!" High command said excitedly at first and then just throwing out the first thing that came to his mind.

Inumi had a bead of sweat on the back of her neck from this, but then she just focused on combat just like Aizawa.

"I already know your quirk Aizawa-san and we both know that mutations are your weakness, you should give up" Inumi said with a sly smile and quickly understanding her advantage.

'I guess the last name 'Kōtatsu' is not too big for her' Aizawa thought, taking a serious attitude and then saying...

"I'm sorry, the most logical thing is to retire, but I am supposed to do this to know why I want to be a hero, so the best thing is to fight in irrational situations" said Aizawa calmly as he arranged his hair back so that it would not get in the way in his first attack.

'One reason huh? I've never thought about that' Doryoku wondered in a thoughtful tone upon hearing Aizawa's words.

He was 100% sure that his motivation was his mother in this case, but what was it that made him happy about helping people? That was a very interesting topic to think.

"No countdown let's go!!" High command said suddenly as usual and starting the fight.

Inumi started his attack by running towards Aizawa very quickly at almost 60 km / h and arriving in front of him in no time.

Aizawa waited until the last moment and deactivated her quirk for a second before she attacked him with a right uppercut, dodging the attack with a nimble move to the side.

"Come on girl blow the emo's head off!!" Mirai said quite excited from the stands wanting someone to remove the emo from Aizawa, making the rest of the group look at her with blank eyes.

Inumi from her side, seemed quite confused due to Aizawa being able to dodge her even without removing her physical abilities.

'You still lack of experience brat, Aizawa knows that he cannot erase your physical abilities, but your senses will always be affected by his quirk at least a little and that is enough' Last laser thought seriously upon seeing Inumi's confusion.

After dodging the attack and taking advantage of the confusion, Aizawa hit her right shin with force causing her to complain a little about the pain and have a little discomfort.

The combat continued and Aizawa dodged each attack with agility as he hit Inumi in different parts to weaken her little by little.

"You fucking skinny, slippery bum!" Mirai said with annoyance when she saw that there was no blood anywhere.

"I wonder if it was a good idea to get together with this girl, what would Okā-chan say?" Doryoku said in a thoughtful tone as he pondered the subject seriously with a hand on his chin, Oboro and Hizashi walked away scared and Azami smiled nervously.

But Aizawa also grew weaker and his eyes were getting dry as he used his quirk more, so at one point he received a strong blow to the face that sent him several meters back.

Aizawa somersaulted in the air nimbly and fell to his feet on the ground while holding his nose which dripped a bit of blood, being able to see another attack from Inumi coming and dodging it with difficulty.

Inumi knew that she had the physical advantage of the battle so she kept attacking Aizawa without letting him rest at any time and landing another blow, sending him to the extreme of the arena.

"Come on boy this is not the end of your talent!!" said High command who seemed to be acting out a dramatic war scene.

'What will you do now Aizawa?' Last laser wondered curiously seeing that Aizawa was in a big trouble.

Aizawa kept his mind clear and was able to think of a rather risky plan, but one that had a 50% chance of working.

Inumi approached to attack again but with considerable caution due to the proximity to the outside of the arena while Aizawa wiped his nose and blew some of his blood out of this one.

When Inumi was close to him, Aizawa approached quite quickly and pointed his index and middle fingers into her eyes causing Inumi to reflexively close them and use her nose to attack him for safety.

And following the scent of his blood, Inumi launched a blow without being able to hit anything.

"Inumi Kōtatsu is out of the arena!! The winner is Aizawa Shota!!" said High command quite excited by the combat.

Inumi looked around her quite confused and could see that there was a small spot of blood under her and that she was out of the arena while Aizawa held his nose still bleeding a little.

'He used his blood as a decoy and erased her quirk to confuse her senses, well done Aizawa, but if she had chosen the other option you would have lost, this was just luck' Last laser thought with seriousness and recognition as he watched Aizawa walk to the nursing just like Inumi.

Doryoku also noticed Aizawa's plan and understood his quirk without much difficulty, although there were still details that he wasn't completely sure about.

"The second match will be between Doryoku Suzuki the hidden talent and the pink girl Yoshino Sakurai, get ready!!" High command said calling both of them to the arena with much anticipation as did the crowd.

"Good luck friend, don't let her charms catch you" said Oboro with a mocking smile and giving his support.

"Ok" Doryoku said without giving too much importance to the matter and making Oboro sweat nervously again.

The rest of his friends also wished him luck and Doryoku walked through the stadium until he reached the exit of the arena, activated his quirk and waited for the order from the High command.

"On the right side we have the MVP so far of this festival, Doryoku Suzuki!!" High command said quite excited as Doryoku walked towards the arena.

The arena filled with cheers, stunning Doryoku again, who was regretting coming in first place in the obstacle course.

"And on the left side we have the girl who gave him a lot of trouble in the second half, Yoshino Sakurai!!" High command said also quite excited as Yoshino came out from the other side as well.

Apparently the public was also interested in her, after all there was a lot of applause and ovations from her side as well.

Both participants reached the arena and stood one at each end while waiting for the surprise order from the High command.

"Let's have a fair match, Suzuki-san" Yoshino said quite gracefully and respectfully.

"Good luck" said Doryoku also respectfully seeing the good treatment the girl had with him.

"No countdown let's go!!" High command said suddenly and starting the fight.

Doryoku was the first to move and quickly ran towards Yoshino using his quirk with the intention of pulling her out of the arena.

But at this she also reacted quickly by generating a pink sphere from her hands and throwing it directly at Doryoku.

Being close to the sphere it exploded leaving a small cloud of black smoke and a great noise in Doryoku's place.

And when the dust cleared, he was unharmed and without any injury, taking Yoshino a bit by surprise.

'Ugh, the sound itself can't be absorbed, I'll have to remember it' Doryoku thought with a loud beeping in his right ear and making a very subtle wince.

Yoshino wasted no time and threw one of her spheres that hit Doryoku's foot as well as the ground leaving him attached.

Doryoku simply took off his shoe and kicked at her stomach with the intention of pushing her out again, but she dodged it nimbly.

Yoshino this time released a sphere of sound, which made Doryoku grimace much more noticeably and exposing his weakness.

"Come on finish off the other emo!" Mirai said encouraging Yoshino and implying that she really hated emos.

'You underestimate her brat, in the real world you would already be dead if her quirk were mortal' Last laser thought, finding another area to train the boy.

'I guess I'll have to take it more seriously' Doryoku thought seriously seeing that this would not be so easy and understanding his mistake.

Doryoku moved at full speed towards her and just as he was about to launch a blow that would be dodged, his fingers trembled rapidly and...

"Kinetic field!" Doryoku said snapping his fingers and making a small field of vibrations of 2 meters around.

Something that Doryoku had noticed is that Yoshino was always very focused when attacking, so he decided to confuse her a bit to verify his suspicions.

And indeed, Yoshino tried to form a sphere and did not succeed due to the vibrations that were still in his body, so Doryoku simply pushed her to the grass and left her out of the arena.

"Yoshino Sakurai is out of the arena, Doryoku Suzuki is the winner!" Ectoplasm said loudly and giving Doryoku the win.

"A short fight but that shows that you can't lower your guard, what a talent!!" High command said quite excited by the results although the combat was not very spectacular.

The heroes around gave the recognition to the girk, so she would have several requests at least.

Doryoku approached her and helped her up to which she replied...

"It was a good fight, but the physical part is not my thing" Yoshino said still calm and quite respectful.

"Same here, it was a good fight" Doryoku said with appreciation and then went to the stands again, since his bracelet was releasing quite a lot of steam.

Not many realized this except for Last laser, High command and...

'So that was it' Aizawa thought understanding a bit about Doryoku's strange quirk and bracelet.

Doryoku reached the hall and deactivated his bracelet which was already starting to overheat quite a bit.

And as he walked through the corridors he met Yoshino again turned around which made Doryoku feel quite strange and a little worried.

"Sakurai-san, do you need something?" Doryoku asked curiously as he slowly approached.

Yoshino turned around and her face was VERY angry, so much so that Doryoku thought for a moment that she was a different person.

"Listen to me very unfortunate, idiot, scum, trash, rat, dog, pig, animal, beast, damn bastard-!" Yoshino said, venting all her anger and frustration with insults as Doryoku tried to assimilate the situation.

'I expected a stab at the most, but I didn't sincerely expect this' Doryoku thought with blank eyes as he learned a very wide vocabulary of bad words for free.

"Tadpole, stupid, freaky, retarded son-" Yoshino said as she kept insulting him angrily but being interrupted by Doryoku.

"Hey, I don't allow that last one" said Doryoku quite offended and seriously.

"Oh sorry, weed, cursed, bum, Monogatari fan, unhinged-" Yoshino said respectfully apologizing for a moment and then again insulting him quite passionately.

'Much better' Doryoku thought as he continued to be insulted but did not give it much importance.

And with this strange exchange, Doryoku became more related to the 1-A class of heroes... somehow.
