“START”

‘FULL COWL: 10%’

The moment he heard the start, he immediately activated One for All and jumped. This was the best decision since after doing so, a wave of cold immediately, washed over the ground. A grim smile formed on his face,

‘As I thought, Todoroki is a crowd control type, his quirk really shines in such an enclosed space.’ He thought with a wry smile.

'He is really merciless.'

He used the walls as springboards and continued to think about the weaknesses and strengths of all his schoolmates. Even though he got One for All, he never forgot that his core was his rather sharp and rational mind. As such, he made the habit of observing all his teammates and writing down info he knew about them.

At this level, it wouldn’t be a mistake to say that he was more like a spy than a hero. He finally went out, what greeted him was the sight of Inasa, Todoroki and giant robots like the ones he fought during the exams.

‘They are really strong. I can’t afford to become complacent. Even putting them aside, I want to beat Kuroha.’

There was no bad blood between him and Kuroha. He just wanted to win. He wanted Kuroha to accept him and see him as someone of equal rank. Sadly, this seemed like a simple dream for the time being.

After avoiding the giant robots, he immediately began to run at full speed in order to catch up to the three, no, the four in front of him. It didn’t take long for him to understand what was happening.

“I wonder which drawing allowed him to be in the lead?”

Minegata's quirk was extremely powerful, but also extremely weak. Still, it was a rather big game changer if used properly.

‘15%’

He rushed even more and began to get near them. Todoroki was sort of skating by using his ice, while Kacchan and Inasa were ‘flying’ at low altitude. Finally, Minegata was sitting on a…

‘A panther?’

He nearly missed a step when he saw that. He knew that Minegata could materialize his drawing in reality. But he thought it only worked for non-living objects.

‘Hahaha, he really is Kuroha's brother.’

The way they broke all common sense was really bad for his heart. Still, this didn’t matter. He continued to slowly but surely accelerate until they reached the second checkpoint. It was basically a vast canyon full of cliffs. Each of those little peaks were connected by rather thin ropes.

‘UA will always surprise me. Just when did they build such a stage?’

Still, while this could stump those at the back, this was, of course, no problem for the current group in the lead.

Izuku, seeing Todoroki still in the lead couldn’t help but hesitate a little.

‘Should I use it now?’

He hurriedly shook his head. This was supposed to be a trump card against Kuroha. He couldn’t afford to use it now. As such,

‘It’s better to just boost myself. 30%!!!’

Izuku could feel his body crack a little, still, while painful, it was rather bearable.

“LET’S JUMP!!!”

Then, under the amazed eyes of all the crowd, thanks to pure physical power, Izuku completely ignored the ropes and jumped to each cliffs in order to reach Todoroki and Inasa.

“DEKU!!!”

Bakugo couldn’t accept it and also began to strain himself in order to accelerate.

Currently, the only one who was running rather leisurely was Minegata who was still sitting on his beast. Right now though, it wasn’t a panther, but rather a rather long and large snake. He was lazily lying on its head as the snake slithered on the ropes.

‘Hum. I wonder what Kuroha is doing. Or did he give up? Well, that’s Impossible.’

He understood Kuroha well. He didn’t know why he made such an announcement in his speech, but now that he did, he would never let himself lose. That’s why he didn’t really care about winning and losing.

In essence, like Kuroha, his future was already assured. Even if he did nothing during his three years, he would get a job without a doubt. For him, this competition was completely meaningless. He would have rather spent this time in his workshop and draw something.

A lecherous smile formed on his face.

‘Hum...I wonder with whom he used the condom I gave him. Hahaha, it will be fun to hear the details later. My little brother now entered the world of adults.’
