Bab 43: Villains And Heroes
__________ POV Beru__________
Toga was dancing around the scarf dude and cutting up villains left and right. Still, if I don't intervene they will get overwhelmed.
Shiggy was thrown away like a rock from a slingshot, his hand costume flying away in every direction. He should still be recovering.
And Souma is still struggling to take his hands away from me.
But since I'm using a combination of all of my strengthening quirks my arms grew to be the same size as Souma's, the only difference being that my strength is slightly better.
I pulled and raised him over my head. The nomu didn't have enough intelligence to try and get a good grip on me to reverse the situation.
So, I just swung him around and threw him towards the group of villains.
He crashed into them and like a cannonball. There was nothing the 'poor' villains could do besides getting crushed by his body.
The villains around me must've realised that I wasn't exactly going to be helping them during this raid. So they also decided to encircle me.
A grave mistake. I guess I need to show them why I'm so 'famous'.
I then stamped on the ground with great force, using my earth manipulation quirk and creating a large wave that 'washed' over at least 30 villains at the same time.
They were all either crushed under the weight of the wave or catapulted into the air, leading to quite a bad fall and a few broken bones.
I can't really send it towards more villains because it might also affect Scarf dude and Toga. So I will just take out as many as I can before Souma rushes me.
Then, my hand bulked up further, becoming like a rounded balloon as I pointed my palm into the crowd of villains.
I let off a powerful Air Cannon, the pressurised crushing the ground and sending all of the villains in front of me flying.
With those moves, I took out at least 70 villains. They won't be able to re-enter the fight either.
I would've taken out more if they were a bit closer together. But Toga and Scarfy can deal with the rest.
Souma is already up and running towards me. I didn't really catch him with the Air Cannon, so he's quite close to me.
I just pointed a finger at him and turned it in a gun barrel. I shot his chest, creating a baseball-sized hole in the middle of it and staggering him to the ground.
The hole healed quickly, I dashed in front of Souma as he was struggling to get back up and kneed him in the abdomen.
The shockwave of which sent most of the injured villains around us flying in different directions.
Then, just as Souma was about to punch my side, I stepped back and allowed his punch to pass by in front of my chest, before kicking him into the gut and sending him flying further.
Straight into what seems like a lake? Why is there a lake in a building? Oh well, It's here so I might as well use it.
I used Nao's quirk, which I copied from him at some point, to encase Souma in a prison of Water of sorts.
It was basically a large bulb that would permanently pull him towards the centre.
A whirlpool of sorts that was in constant motion and didn't allow Souma to gather his strength to properly escape.
I did use like half the lake for it so it better be enough. I then looked back. Someone was scratching my back while I was concentrating on trapping Souma.
It seems little Shiggy also wants to play around a bit. He's disintegrated some parts of my exoskeleton, but they are healing just as quickly as he destroys them.
I just kicked him into the gut and sent him flying back into the crowd of villains. Which, might I add, was quickly becoming smaller and smaller.
Some of the students also joined and started helping by taking out the cannon fodder. The explosion kid is also awake now, and taking out his anger on a few unfortunate thugs.
Another kid is freezing a lot of them alive. And, before I knew it, the fight was over. Well, mostly. Souma managed to punch its way out of my prison.
"NOMU! TAKE ME AWAY FROM HERE!" Does Shiggy really think I'll let him get away from me? I mean, the Souma Nomu isn't really a threat to me, it's just got endurance.
Souma tried to run towards the downed 'leader' only to get kicked in the face by yours truly. He did technically try to run past me. I obviously won't let him do that.
Well, this is entertaining, I could see some of the students cringe when I turned Souma's body in a skipping stone on the lake.
Shigaraki slowly got up and shakily started walking towards me.
"W-why? W-we were so close... Why did yo-" I appeared in front of him and looked him in the eyes.
"This plan is stupid~ So is your dream~ I've nothing against you, but All for One will have to die~" He stared back into my eyes, flabbergasted.
"You're nothing but a tool to him, I won't kill you..." At least if you stop fighting, I don't do charity.
"T-Teacher? I-I see... So it was all a joke... Then, what am I even doing here?" He grasped his hair and looked at the ground in despair.
I didn't actually think he would believe me. But I guess I did plant a few seeds in his mind. The uncaring nature of his 'loving' teacher isn't really well hidden when Shigaraki isn't present.
I made sure that he knew that. Ever since I stopped pretending not to be able to talk.
Overall, his loyalty to All for One is strong, but his mind is so unstable that a single shred of doubt can crush his reality as a whole.
I'm not great when dealing with people, and manipulation has never really been my thing. But I can pull something like this off if I really put my mind to it.
Well, thing are going we-
The entrance door was suddenly punched open. In entered an angry-looking All Might, he wasn't wearing his hero costume, but he was still ready to fight.
"IT'S FINE NOW! I AM HERE!" I guess the students getting involved in this is the cause of his anger.
Then, he looked down, there were still a few villains left. He just dashed in and took them all out in less than a second.
Then started looking for any injured students, he heaved a sigh of relief when seeing that everyone was intact.
"What happened her-" He was about to ask the Scarf Hero before his eyes finally landed on me. Toga had also come to my side, asking if she did a good job.
I just patted her head a bit and told her to stand behind me.
"Great to see you~," I said while staring at the Symbol of Peace.
"Beru... Have you finally finished? I apologize for injuring you back then, I am glad you've recovered." All Might regained his smile and started speaking to me for a bit.
"Don't worry, the injury wasn't that big a deal. Could've been worse~ Glad to see you're still hea-" I didn't even get to finish when I noticed some blood dribble down on his chin.
He was unsteady and seemed to only be able to hold himself up. I guess he's not really as healthy as he appeared to be...
Thankfully, he has his back turned on the students.
"My revenge is mostly done, only one last person needs to appear...~," I said as my antennas danced around in the wind.
"You should also rest a b-" I was about to tell All Might to go and get checked up or something, but Souma decided this would be a good time to crawl out of the lake.
__________ POV Narration__________
All of the students were expecting a fight to break out when the Symbol of Peace appeared.
After all, Beru was titled 'The Archnemesis of the Symbol' they thought he just helped them on a whim or something.
They didn't expect Beru and All Might to just start chatting.
The students just stared blankly as the supposed 'rivals' didn't even show a hint of hostility to one another.
Toga was just as confused as them, she thought Beru had told her to stay behind him because a fight was going to break out, she didn't know he just didn't want her to stay near heroes.
Had the media been overplaying the events to that extent? It was the only conclusion all of the people there could reach. They clearly weren't enemies at all.
The Nomu came out of the Pool sluggishly. Shigaraki's last orders were still what it was trying to achieve, but its energy was drained completely.
It couldn't do anything when Beru pointed his finger at it again and blew off both of its legs. The recovery speed was slowed down greatly. It was already out of the fight.
Soon, the other teachers also arrived. And Beru still stood around the unconscious Shigaraki and waited.
