Kapitel 105: Who will win?
Mineta against Todoroki.
When this match was announced, no one was missing, and everyone focused on the match.
Whether Mineta or Todoroki, they were all famous, and they were all strong.
There was no need to talk about Todoroki since he was the son of Endeavor, the 2nd rank hero of this country. His ability was also powerful since he could manipulate two opposite elements, which were fire and ice.
While no one knew why Todoroki had never used his fire ability, it didn't stop them from thinking he was strong.
On the other hand, while it was only a while since Mineta was known, he had attracted everyone's attention. His time to use his "Quirk" was limited, but he made everyone open their eyes wide.
The first time he used his ability in public was at the first event when he was able to leap from the last position to the 1st position directly. It was amazing, and no one was able to replicate this except for All-Might.
As for the second time, while it wasn't noticeable and ignored by many people, for those strong heroes, they noticed the subtility and his control over "Quirk" had reached a level that one might only dream of achieving.
What was even more impressive was that his substance could become invisible or another color, which was hard to see.
Naturally, it was only noticed by a few people, not all.
Yet even so, while the fight between Mineta and Todoroki gathered the attention of all the people, many thought that Todoroki would win. Yet this wasn't something so surprising since Todoroki was the son of Endeavor and his "Quirk" was strong.
Endeavor's reputation was clear to all, and the public had a lot of trust in him, so when his son appeared, many would also place such trust in Todoroki. This was what it meant to have a good pedigree. It was like when one would believe the descendant of a horse, who could win the championship in a derby or others instead of a weak horse, right?
Todoroki's case was similar.
On the other hand, Mineta didn't have such a reputation. His family was just a normal family without anything special. If there was something special about him, he was a famous All-Tuber with ten million subscribers and slightly richer than others.
As of now, many have debated whether Mineta was that All-Tuber since his face was similar. The only difference was the color of his hair and eye since they were different.
However, leaving this identity aside, Class 1-A and 1-B wouldn't miss this match, and they discussed with each other at this match was going to be.
"Shiozaki, Mineta is your boyfriend, right?"
"Yes." Ibara looked at Tetsutetsu, who asked that question.
"Who do you think will win then?" Tetsutetsu asked.
"Minoru." Ibara didn't have any doubts about her boyfriend's victory.
"He is strong."
Whether Kendo and Kodai also agreed since they knew well how powerful Mineta was.
"Do you have such confidence in him?" Monoma pursed his lips and felt annoyed since Mineta was part of the reason why he couldn't pass the next event, yet what could he do? He knew that he wasn't as good as Mineta, but it was impossible for him to admit that!
His pride wouldn't allow it!
"So, are you going to support that Endeavor's son, Monoma?" Tetsutetsu asked.
"No, I am not going to support anyone from Class 1-A!" Monoma shook his head, then looked at Ibara, Kendo, and Kodai. "So you three, you should win, alright? Don't lose to those Class 1-A!"
"....." Ibara, Kendo, and Kodai.
"By the way, where is Yanagi?" Kendo looked around, ignoring Monoma.
"Sorry, I am late." Reiko came to the audience area of Class 1-B, and she was quickly greeted by Monoma.
"Yanagi, you have to—"
Before Monoma finished his words, he was beaten.
"....." Everyone.
On the other hand, Class 1-A was fairly quiet.
Unlike many, who thought Todoroki would win, they didn't think so since they knew how mysterious Mineta was. It might be rare for him to use his "Quirk," but it was because he didn't really need to use his "Quirk" to win.
"Mineta is going to win this match," Sero unexpectedly said.
"Huh? Why do you think so, Sero?" Midoriya couldn't understand how Sero could have such confidence in Mineta since he felt Todoroki was stronger. After all, in his mind, Todoroki's "Quirk" was strong. It was also quite rare for Mineta to use his "Quirk" in class, so he couldn't get much data about Mineta's "Quirk," and he was also in the infirmary during the Battle Trial, so he didn't know much about Mineta's "Quirk."
Yet Midoriya knew that Mineta couldn't be underestimated since he had seen how Mineta could leap so far and how Mineta could win the previous event.
However, this event was different.
This was a battle.
In other words, Todoroki had a better chance of winning.
"That guy..." Sero sighed, then asked, "Have you seen him nervous or glance at Todoroki the moment he knew his opponent was Todoroki? No, that guy has been flirting with his girlfriend from the beginning to the end and doesn't seem worried even if Todoroki is his opponent."
"...."
Everyone was speechless, but this seemed to be the case. If Todoroki was their opponent, they might try to be alone, trying to think about a countermeasure for how to win. Naturally, they would be nervous, but many couldn't see such a thing on Mineta.
"But... Todoroki's ice is strong. Have you forgotten it?" Midoriya still wanted to argue.
"...."
They couldn't say anything since they had seen how Todoroki could freeze the group of villains and a humanoid monster. They knew how strong his ice ability was.
Midoriya knew that Mineta was strong, but it was only in the strategy.
"How about a bet?" Sero suddenly smiled.
"Bet?" Midoriya was startled.
"Hey, you can't do something inappropriate here!" Iida couldn't help but scold Sero.
"The bet is only a game, after all. Be relaxed, Iida. You need to be flexible from time to time."
Iida thought for a moment before he nodded. "That's true, but you can't use the money to bet."
"I know." Sero thought for a moment and knew that his plan to get one-month free lunch had failed. "How about this? If I win, you will do my homework for a month."
"Eh?!" Midoriya was startled.
"You believe that Todoroki will win, right? If you win, you can ask me whatever you want." Sero knew how smart Midoriya was, and it would be good if Midoriya could do his homework.
"Hey, Midoriya, you don't need to do this." Iida quickly stopped them.
However, Midoriya was silent for a while. He wasn't sure why he tried to force to think that Todoroki would win. It might be because he heard Todoroki's tragic story that he felt sympathetic toward him. Mineta might be good, but his effort wasn't something that couldn't be compared to Midoriya.
However, Midoriya forgot the quote from Edition.
"One percent inspiration and 99 percent perspiration."
Everyone in this place might have done 99 percent perspiration, but Mineta had this one percent of inspiration.
In other words, it was impossible for Mineta to lose.
However, Midoriya still believed that Todoroki would win.
Yet, Uraraka said, "Hey, stop it! Don't do something so stupid! Just watch the match! It's about to start." She wasn't sure why she felt annoyed when Midoriya felt that Todoroki would win, but she didn't want to hear their argument again since the match was about to start.
"Yes, just be quiet!"
When everyone said so, Sero and Midoriya stopped and looked at the stage since Mineta and Todoroki had entered the stage.
