Chapitre 21: Antonio v/s Heroes
While the children were running in the direction where the hero was leading them 17 found a new feature in his customize create screen. He found out that there was an option to show up a map which showed the whole area with a radius of 1km around him with the topography of the said area and the people present in the area, though the identity of the people were not shown on the screen, not the name of the places which were shown on the map. So currently the only use it had was to know the if someone was coming towards them or not, which was a job 35 was expert in, so it was totally useless for him.
Sighing on seeing that his new find was totally useless right now, he focused on running with his map function active trying to see if anyone was coming towards them.
--------------------
In some other part of the city Antonio was fighting a group of heroes who were trying to take him down with a mocking smile on his face, "C'mon what are you heroes doing people are expecting you all to save them, right? So why hiding there come out and face me 'Heroes'" Antonio smirked and thought, 'Ahh, this feeling of looking down on a group for pros is really awesome. And I am not even trying to be serious here. Heh.'
But all of a sudden he felt something coming towards him and immediately tilted his head and saw a leg pass by him. Antonio immediately took some distance from the one who attacked him but noticed that a kick was once again was in front of his face. He then grabbed the leg and threw the person away without much difficulty and said, "C'mon is that the best you could do?" and then looked at the person he just threw away while firing some missiles behind him as he saw some heroes trying for a sneak attack.
The person he threw earlier stood up and was now in Antonio's sight. He gave a tired sigh, "Just a newbie huh. Well I commend you for your bravery at least. See this you men who are hiding behind a shield. A newbie is able to show that courage which you all lack despite of being pros."
"Shut it bastard or this newbie might kick you all the way to hell." The person who told this was the one who kicked him earlier. The said person was a woman who had two rabbit ears on top of her head with white hair and tanned skin. The lady's hero costume consisted of a plane white leotard and black thigh high boots, with a bit of metal plating on the soles and toes.
Antonio looked at the tanned lady with rabbit ears in front of him and soon he recognised who she was and said, "Ahh! Aren't you the infamous newbie Mirko who is hell bent on working solo despite getting so many offers and is getting flamed by a lot of hero agencies for that thinking. Quite a trouble maker aren't you newbie."
Hearing what the man in front of him just said Miriko snorted and said, "That's what all those shitty bastard could do anyway. Forget it I still have the job of kicking you to hell." and then jumped high up in the sky trying to kick him with great force.
Antonio looked at the woman coming towards him with a small smirk on his face and fired a lot missiles in her direction.
Seeing that Mirko smirked as well and decided to kick those missiles away, but all of a sudden a concentrated heat wave came into view and heading towards her direction.
Mirko who could feel a bit of heat that the beam had braced herself and put her legs in front thinking of using the soles of her boots to provide a bit of resistance. But out of nowhere a hexagonal stone like structure appeared in front of her blocking the attack.
Mirko seeing the structure immediately took advantage of it and used it as a platform to jump away, and a few moments after that the stone broke.
Antonio looked at another person who was now there in front of him and said, "Ehh, looks like a pro got some courage to face me." and looked towards the other person who turned out to be a man with black hair with a white streak in them. The man had a well built body and was wearing a Spartan armour with a green hooded cape.
"Seeing the newbie fighting like that rekindled the flames of heroism in me!!! Good job newbie." and gave a thumbs up to Mirko.
Mirko looked at the man and said, "Thanks for the support there, dude." with a smirk while looking at Antonio.
The man nodded his head and immediately two hexagonal stone like structure grew from his hand and were fired at Antonio.
Antonio seeing that fired various missiles coupled with his heat blasts towards the two huge stone shields and the heroes raising a dust cloud in the area.
"Pro hero Crust, huh. Well aren't you a high ranking one." and then fired even more missiles around the area and at the heroes who were busy using long ranged attacks against him.
Crust immediately formed shields around his hands and blocked the missiles coming towards him while Mirko just easily dodged the missiles or kicked them away.
"Are you some sort of one trick pony or what?" Mirko snorted on seeing that Antonio once again fired his missiles and was now expecting a heat wave anytime soon. But contrary to her expectations instead of feeling some heat near her she heard a faint sound through her sensetive ears.
Antonio who was now hidden in a dust cloud decided to take care of Crust, since he was a High ranking Hero and seeing his defeat, the other heroes would get slightly demoralised.
He then used a quirk which allowed him to see clearly through the dust cloud and found where crust was standing. Noticing that he was covering himself with two huge shields Antonio pointed his index finger in Crust's direction and fired a very fine and high pressurised water jet at him thinking of piercing through the rock and then through his body.
But as soon as he fired the jet Mirko appeared in the air above him and dropped a kick at his outstretched hand successfully breaking it in the process.
"MOVE AWAY FROM THERE CRUST!!!"
Crust who heard Mirko's shout perked up and immediately did as she instructed and saw a part of his shield getting pierced by a very fine water jet without any resistance.
Seeing that sweat appeared on top of his forehead as he threw one of his shields in the direction from which the attack came from.
Mirko who heard something coming towards her jumped away from her spot and a moment after that Crust's shield hit Antoni on his chest as he was still a bit surprises by Mirko's sudden appearance and his broken hand.
Seeing him flying away along with the huge rock disc Mirko said, "We are even now!! Understood!!"
Crust who heard that smirked and said, "Understood newb- Mirko!! But heroes while on duty don't owe other heroes, keep that in mind." and used his huge shields to form a gust of wind to blow away the dust by waving them like a fan.
Antonio on the other hand was now out of trance looked at his broken hand and said, "Looks like I need to get a bit serious here." and black fluid started to ooze out of his hand and covered it entirely and then used his other hand to grip the rock disc and throw it back.
Crust and Mirko who saw the huge shield coming towards them didn't do anything as crust simply moved his hand forwards and his shield got absorbed back in his body.
Both of them then looked at Antonio who now was covered in a purple aura with his fists turned into rocket launchers.
Seeing that his hand was already healed Mirko clicked her tongue and glared at him and was about to once again rush to attack him. But Antoni moved quicker than her and fired a combination of heat waves, missiles and highly pressurised water jets towards the two heroes, trying to bind them in long distance battle which was not their strong point.
Crust seeing the attacks immediately formed two huge shields and threw them towards the missiles and used two more shields and placed them in front of him so as to block the other attacks.
He and Mirko then jumped back from that spot knowing that the shield will not last for long.
Crust looked at Mirko and said, "Engage him in close quarters, I will support you from behind." and started throwing various small shields towards the missiles and all trying to slow them down.
Mirko snorted and said, "Don't order me around." but soon a smirk appeared on her face and said, "Looks like that guy needs some serious kicking." and using her superior speed rushed towards him while dodging the attacks that were coming her way.
Mirko, who noticed that she was easily able to dodge the attacks gave a small smile and said, "Heh, can't keep us away from you for too long." and took a jump once she saw that she was close to him and was about to deliver a round house kick.
Antonio seeing that smirked as well and said, "Seems like it." and stopped firing with one of his hands and turned it back to normal. He then clenched his fists and dodged Mirko's kick by taking a step back and punched her with full force in the gut, making her spill out some of her saliva and then immediately turned his hand back to a missile launcher and fired a couple of missiles at her at point blank range.
Mirko clenched her teeth because of the impact and was blown away, but suddenly one of Crust's shield appeared behind Mirko catching Antonio off guard and pushed him back a little.
Mirko crashed down on the ground but soon stood up while caressing where she got hit and said, "I swear that this bastard is going to die by my legs." and then once again got in her fighting stance.
Antonio who easily destroyed the shield looked at the two heroes with a smirk on his face and gestured them to come and get him with his index finger.
Mirko got a tick mark on her forehead seeing Antonio mocking her and was about to pounce at him. But before she was able to a yellow blur went past her and crashed to Antonio at a very fast speed, sending him flying into the nearby building.
"Good grief, Villans these days....don't they know how to do things in moderation." said a small old man wearing a white jump suit with yellow hooded cape.
