Bab 50: Chapter 50. Third Round Finals: Hard Head and Stubborn Head.
After Todoroki easily defeated Sero Hanta, the audience was stunned by the obvious difference in their strength. The iceberg, tens of meters high, even covered half the audience seats, let alone the stage.
"Don't worry..."
A spectator tried to comfort Sero Hanta, and the whole audience joined in, making Sero Hanta feel even worse.
Todoroki Shoto then melted the ice on Sero Hanta and the giant iceberg, ending the match.
With Midnight's announcement, Todoroki Shoto was the clear winner.
Next up was Hero Class A's Ashido Mina vs. Hero Class A's Bakugo Katsuki.
Ashido Mina's Quirk is "Acid," which can spray dissolving liquid with adjustable concentration and viscosity, similar to the alien in movies.
Bakugo Katsuki's Quirk is "Explosion," which allows him to release powerful explosions from his hands and use the blast to propel himself.
Their match was thrilling. Bakugo continuously attacked Ashido with explosions, but she was agile, dodging his attacks and countering with her acid Quirk.
Unfortunately, even though Ashido had good reflexes, she couldn't match Bakugo in the variety of combat moves. Bakugo released a big explosion with his hand on the ground, and thick black smoke covered the area.
While Ashido was on guard, Bakugo attacked from behind. She tried to dodge but it was too late. Bakugo's right hand was already on her head, and the winner was decided!
With Bakugo's hand on her forehead, Ashido Mina didn't struggle and admitted defeat. The main referee, Midnight, announced:
"The winner is Bakugo Katsuki!"
After the previous match ended, the next contestants stepped onto the ring. The "Voice Hero" Present Mic loudly introduced the two contestants:
"Kirishima Eijiro from Hero Class A vs. Tetsutetsu Tetsutetsu from Hero Class B. What a fateful matchup!"
"Kirishima's Quirk is 'Hardening,' making him the strongest shield and spear. Tetsutetsu's Quirk is 'Steel,' also making him the strongest shield and spear!"
"I wonder what kind of battle these two will bring!!"
After the introductions, Midnight announced the start of the match!
At the signal, Kirishima from Class A and Tetsutetsu from Class B charged at each other with a roar!
Their fists aimed at each other's faces, but neither could hurt the other!
Both students had Quirks that enhanced their bodies, making them very practical but not flashy.
As both were from the Hero Course, Kirishima and Tetsutetsu's Quirk strength was about the same. Neither could break through the other's defense, so there was only one thing to do!
"Ora ora ora!"
"Muda muda muda muda!"
Kirishima and Tetsutetsu both swung their fists, continuously hitting each other. With their Quirks strengthening their bodies, they didn't need to dodge or defend, just attack with all their might!
"Go for it, you two!"
"You're both amazing! We'll remember whoever wins!"
"Hit him, aim for the face!!"
The audience was fired up by the two hot-blooded boys' fistfight. Besides powerful Quirk duels, pure fistfights between men never go out of style. Every era has underground fight clubs because people crave pure combat!
After continuous fighting, Kirishima and Tetsutetsu reached their physical and mental limits. Finally, after each landed a punch on the other's face, both contestants fell to the ground.
"It's a tie for now. We'll decide the winner with another event when they wake up!"
With Midnight's announcement, medical staff brought stretchers to carry the exhausted students to "Recovery Girl"...
"Next up, Takeyama Urei from Hero Class A vs. Uraraka Ochako from Hero Class A!"
"This year, Class A is really strong. Most of the finalists are from Class A. I wonder if the champion will also be from Class A!"
As Present Mic introduced them, the two girls slowly stepped onto the ring...
"Look, your sister is up next!"
Two pro heroes, who were supposed to be on patrol but were watching the match instead, were Kamui Woods and Mount Lady. Kamui Woods didn't want to slack off, but Mount Lady insisted on watching her sister's match. In the end, the diligent hero had no choice but to join her in slacking off...
"Even though my little girl's Quirk is nowhere near as strong and beautiful as my sister's, she still has a giant Quirk. Winning a match should be easy!"
The Mountain Lady said proudly. Though it sounded like she was bragging, she had a point. No one in the audience thought Uraraka Ochako would win... The difference in their fighting power was too big.
"Um..."
Kamui Woods, standing next to her, hesitated. He noticed a critical point but couldn't bring himself to say it, seeing the Mountain Lady's proud expression.
"Uraraka!"
"Takeyama..."
The two girls on the stage greeted each other politely, but they were ready to fight with all their might.
"Midoriya-chan! Who do you think will win?"
Hatsume Mei, sitting next to Midoriya, asked with interest. No matter who won, the second round could be a problem for Midoriya.
"Although in terms of strength... Takeyama Urei has a crushing advantage, but..."
Before Midoriya Izuku could finish, Midnight announced the start of the match, and Uraraka Ochako went on full defense. Facing Takeyama Urei's giant Quirk, her chances were slim, but she just needed to last three minutes!
At Midnight's signal, Takeyama Urei activated her giant Quirk, turning into a 20-meter-tall giantess, casting a shadow over Ochako.
Seeing the towering Takeyama blocking the sunlight, Uraraka felt hopeless... She thought she wouldn't last a minute and was ready to close her eyes and wait for the end...
"The winner is Uraraka Ochako!"
"Huh!?"
Midnight's sudden announcement left both girls stunned. The referee pointed to the side, and they turned to look.
Takeyama Urei... had stepped out of bounds...
"Her giant Quirk is strong, but this is a stage match..."
Midoriya Izuku said sympathetically, covering his face. Takeyama Urei was really unlucky...
"Damn it! What kind of stupid match is this!? What kind of rule is that!!"
The Mountain Lady was furious, while Kamui Woods quickly tried to calm her down. He had guessed this outcome from the start, but it was too harsh to say...
