Chapter 27: Chapter 26: Super! Electricity! Magnetic! Gun!
Seeing Kaminari's confident smile, Jiro felt a bit flustered. But beside her, Tetsutetsu stomped his foot, raised his clenched fists, and flashed a fierce grin.
"Well, since you said so… let's do this!!"
At that moment, Tetsutetsu looked undeniably cool.
"Jiro?" Kaminari grinned as he bumped fists with Tetsutetsu, then turned to Jiro.
"What do you want to do?" Jiro asked, curling her lips in mock irritation.
Her response made both Kaminari and Tetsutetsu smirk with satisfaction. In that moment, they knew—they could trust her. Jiro was no longer just a classmate; she was a teammate.
Real partners aren't formed by words alone, but through shared efforts and actions. And when you truly connect with someone, there's always a bit of reality that comes into play. No matter how passionate or idealistic your dreams may be, they need to be grounded in the real world.
"Alright, first thing!" Kaminari said, his smile fading into a more serious expression. He focused on the task at hand, but then he turned to Jiro and asked something that left her puzzled.
"You have a music player on you, right?"
At this point, the massive 'Zero Pointer' robot was less than sixty meters away, its sheer size displacing dust and debris as it crushed the surrounding buildings.
"Yeah… why?" Jiro replied, clearly confused.
"When the time comes, cue up "Only My Railgun", set it to loop, and crank the volume to max," Kaminari said, completely serious.
"..." Jiro.
"..." Tetsutetsu.
Back at U.A. High School, the heroes and teachers, still reeling from the spectacle of Midoriya's one-punch takedown of the Zero Pointer in Area B were left speechless once again by Kaminari's odd request.
"Uh… why?" Tetsutetsu asked, dumbfounded. Playing music at full volume during an emergency like this? He couldn't wrap his head around Kaminari's reasoning.
"BGM! You can't have a moment this epic without an equally epic battle song! It's gotta get everyone hyped!" Kaminari explained, waving his hand as if it were the most obvious thing in the world. "Alright, let's focus on what we need to do next."
"..."
Jiro and Tetsutetsu exchanged resigned glances, choosing not to argue. They simply nodded, ready to follow Kaminari's lead. After all, whatever weird ideas he had, they knew he had a plan. Ten seconds later, they sprang into action.
Since the 'high-speed boost' on Jiro and Tetsutetsu had worn off, Kaminari quickly recharged them with another jolt of electricity, just in case things went south. It would ensure they had enough mobility to escape if necessary.
Now, for the strategy.
Jiro detached her headphone jack from her ear and set up the music, despite thinking Kaminari's request was absurd. Meanwhile, Kaminari and Tetsutetsu, now glowing with golden electricity, dashed into a nearby building, racing up the stairwell at lightning speed.
As for the elevator? Please like that could keep up with them.
"Kaminari, why'd you say this ultimate move you're planning only has a 50% chance of success?" Tetsutetsu asked as they rushed up the stairs.
"Because it's huge. I've never faced anything this big before..."
"..."
Tetsutetsu fell silent, unsure if Kaminari meant to say that in such a weird way. Thankfully, they reached the top floor before he had time to question it further. Only a flimsy iron door stood between them and the rooftop.
"Boom!"
Tetsutetsu kicked the door off its hinges with ease, and they stepped onto the spacious rooftop. Ahead of them, the colossal Zero Pointer robot lumbered forward, unstoppable.
"Liberation! Keep the dream engraved in your heart!"
"I won't even hesitate to leave the future behind!"
"Ignore the meaningless, so-called limits!"
Below, Jiro had started the music, the familiar lyrics of "Only My Railgun" echoing in the distance. Though the volume wasn't deafening from this height, it was enough to get Kaminari's blood pumping. His heightened physical senses, thanks to his Quirk, made the song crystal clear.
Kaminari's excitement surged. For the first time, he could experience the kind of climactic, BGM-fueled moment that anime protagonists got to enjoy.
"Here we go, Tetsutetsu!"
"Right behind you!"
With a loud tearing sound, Tetsutetsu activated his Quirk, ripping off the remnants of his upper clothing. His steel body gleamed in the sunlight as he took his place in front of Kaminari.
"Bring it on!"
Meanwhile, down below, Jiro was carrying out her part of the plan. She stood dangerously close to the crumbling wreckage caused by the Zero Pointer's rampage, as chunks of debris fell around her. But wrapped in Kaminari's golden current, she showed no fear. Instead, she focused, extending her headphone jack toward the ground.
Then, with precise timing, she activated her Quirk.
The amplified sound of her heartbeat, multiplied tenfold, surged through her headphone jack and into the ground. The result was immediate.
"Crack—CRACK—"
"BOOM!"
The ground in front of Jiro shattered in a fan-like pattern, the solid concrete reduced to rubble in seconds.
"Not enough!" Jiro gritted her teeth. She knew her job wasn't just to destroy the ground but to slow down the Zero Pointer as much as possible, giving Kaminari and Tetsutetsu time to set up their attack.
Without hesitation, she darted forward, dodging the falling debris with her boosted speed. She positioned herself just ten meters ahead of the giant robot, dangerously close.
At this distance, Jiro could feel the ground trembling beneath her feet as the towering machine approached. The teachers monitoring the situation grew tense. With U.A.'s 'Recovery Girl' in Area B, any injuries Jiro suffered here might not get immediate treatment.
"There are only three minutes left in the exam!!"
Present Mic's voice suddenly echoed across the exam site. At the same time, "Only My Railgun" reached its climax.
"Lookin'!"
"The blitz loops this planet to search a way!"
"Only my RAILGUN can shoot it—"
"Right now!"
On the rooftop, a beam of dazzling golden light burst from Kaminari's location. It tore through the air, a brilliant streak of electricity arcing toward the Zero Pointer.
Jiro, the U.A. teachers, and all the candidates in Area C who hadn't already fled watched in awe as the beam sliced through the massive robot like it was made of paper. The golden light struck the Zero Pointer's control center with pinpoint accuracy, piercing through its core.
"Super—SUPER! ELECTRIC! MAGNETIC! RAILGUN!!"
Kaminari's triumphant roar echoed louder than the explosion that followed. As fire and lightning engulfed the giant robot, Kaminari stood on the rooftop, his blonde hair blowing in the wind, looking every bit the hero he aspired to be.
Well, except for the part where Tetsutetsu was launched off the rooftop in the process...
