章 61: Chapter 60: The Great Fear
Mountain Disaster Area
"Ah!!"
"They're here!!"
Two sharp female voices pierced through the air, the sound echoing across the rocky terrain. The villains, who had been teleported in advance, sneered as they looked up at Kaminari, Momo, and Kyoka, who were in free fall.
"This isn't good!" Kaminari thought, realizing the danger. Acting quickly, he activated his Quirk, his body surging with golden electricity. Twisting mid-air, he spread his arms wide, grabbing the panicked Momo and Kyoka, one on each side, pulling them close.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
Just below them, a villain with two dog heads for hands grinned wickedly, ready to strike.
"Future Heroes? Even better!" he snarled. "Regret your choice to become heroes in your final moments, kids!"
With lightning speed, the villain's dog-like hands snapped toward Kaminari's legs, aiming to bite down hard.
"Get lost!" Kaminari yelled, kicking the villain square in the face, sending the snarling creature flying back. Using the momentum, Kaminari angled their fall toward a nearby hill.
"Crackling—"
"Ah!!"
"Ugh!"
A split second later, they landed hard on the ground, but with Kaminari's quick thinking and lightning reflexes, the impact was softened. The two dog heads groaned in pain as electricity surged through their bodies, leaving them twitching on the ground.
"Boom!"
The surrounding villains hesitated, eyeing the fierce dog-head villain who lay smoking and unconscious. For a moment, they were stunned, uncertain whether to advance.
"There's… a lot of them," Kaminari muttered, sizing up the situation. At least sixty villains stood before them, and although they'd just taken one down, the odds were far from favorable.
"Kaminari, we need to focus on defense!" Momo said, her expression serious as she quickly created a knife and staff for herself and Kyoka to use as weapons. Kaminari didn't need any his lightning was more than enough.
"Hmm."
Kaminari nodded, moving them slowly toward the mountain wall. "Stick close to the rock face. Momo, make more speakers and set them up in a semicircle."
Kyoka's mind clicked into gear. "You want to use my Quirk to amplify the sound and counterattack?"
"Exactly!" Kaminari replied, keeping his eyes on the villains.
"What about you?" Momo asked as she began forming the speakers.
"Me?" Kaminari grinned, the golden sparks dancing around him. "I'll buy you time."
With that, Kaminari launched himself forward, turning into a blur of electricity as he rushed toward the advancing villains.
"Be careful!" Kyoka called out, her grip tightening on the staff.
Momo didn't flinch, focusing on her task. She knew that completing the defense as quickly as possible was the best way to help Kaminari right now.
"You think you can handle us by yourself, kid?" A villain with four legs and massive arms charged at Kaminari, swinging wildly.
"Stop looking down on us, brat!" another villain growled, activating his Quirk to create a barrier of sharp spikes.
But Kaminari didn't flinch. He weaved through their attacks effortlessly, dodging the massive arms and spikes with lightning-fast movements. With a single electric-charged punch to the gut, he sent the four-legged villain flying. In a swift move, Kaminari leapt out of the encirclement, only to be surrounded again by more enemies.
The villains weren't prepared for Kaminari's speed and agility. In mere moments, more than a dozen of them lay unconscious, twitching on the ground from electric shocks.
But Kaminari knew he couldn't keep this up forever. His Quirk didn't generate electricity, it stored and released it. If he kept using up his power on individual attacks, he'd be drained before long.
"I need a better strategy," he thought, dodging another attack. "But I also need to buy more time for Momo and Kyoka."
Then it hit him.
After knocking another villain out with a lightning-charged fist, Kaminari glanced around. About thirty villains remained, but the time for hesitation was over.
"You're all done for if you keep coming at me!" Kaminari's voice dropped, the usual playfulness gone. His eyes burned with intensity. "Don't blame me for what happens next!"
Up until now, Kaminari had held back. He didn't want to seriously hurt anyone, but the reality was simple: if he showed mercy here, he and his friends might not make it out alive.
"I'm sorry," Kaminari thought to himself, his expression hardening. "But I'm not ready to fall here."
Without hesitation, he reached into his pocket and pulled out a simple one-hundred-yen coin. He flipped it into the air, catching it between his fingers with practiced ease.
"If someone has to be taken down…" he muttered, electricity crackling up his arm. "Then it's going to be you."
A ring of electricity formed around his hand, glowing brighter with each passing second. The villains immediately sensed the threat.
"What… is that?" one of them stammered, his eyes widening in fear.
"Not good! This is bad!" another shouted, terror flooding his voice.
Those closest to Kaminari could feel it—the raw, unfiltered power gathering in his hand. They could feel the danger radiating from him, sharp and palpable, like a blade pressed to their throats. Their instincts screamed at them to run, to flee, to do anything to get away.
But their legs refused to move.
Under the crushing weight of fear, their bodies froze. Despite the frantic orders in their minds, their limbs wouldn't respond.
They were paralyzed by the sheer force of the moment.
"Bah, bah, bah—"

章 62: Chapter 61: Lightning Chain
In the next second, an electromagnetic beam shot forward, so fast that all anyone could see was the blinding golden light. It tore through the air, rocks, and everything else in its path before anyone could even react.
The result? A straight line of ten villains, all left stunned, their clothes singed and smoking, with the shockwave knocking them off their feet.
For a moment, the world went silent. The atmosphere dropped to freezing point as both the remaining villains and Kaminari's classmates, Momo and Kyoka stared in shock. The golden afterglow from the blast lingered in the air, making the scene all the more intimidating.
"Ding—"
Kaminari stood with a cold expression, looking at the villains, whose faces were now painted with fear. Slowly, he pulled another coin from his pocket and pointed it at another group of villains in a different direction.
"If you want to test your luck, step forward," Kaminari said, his voice icy and controlled.
The villains, drenched in sweat, didn't dare move. They hadn't expected a teenager to be this powerful. Their eyes flickered nervously between Kaminari and the ten unconscious bodies lying on the ground, all with their chests scorched and smoking, as if they'd been struck by an explosive force.
"Momo, make me fifty steel balls, now," Kaminari commanded, his gaze not leaving the villains.
"Huh?" Momo snapped out of her daze, startled by the request. "Oh! Right! I'm on it!"
Though she hurried to produce the steel balls, she and Kyoka couldn't help but glance at Kaminari's back. The golden characters embroidered on his robe seemed to shimmer in the wind, and for the first time, they both understood what it meant for Kaminari to call himself the "First Raikage."
Before they could process their thoughts further, a gruff voice broke the silence.
"That move he just used… it can only be done once, and only in one direction!"
The villains stirred uneasily. One of them had spoken up, challenging the others with his assumption.
But the rest of the villains were far from convinced. "You think we're idiots?" one of them spat, glaring at the speaker. "You don't even know for sure! You're just guessing! And you expect us to gamble our lives on that?"
Even if the assumption was correct, that Kaminari could only attack in one direction, no one wanted to be the unlucky target. One wrong move, and they'd end up like the ten corpses at their feet.
The speaker's words might have held some sway, but physically, no one dared to step forward. Their fear was palpable, and despite the tension, not a single villain made a move.
"Where are you hiding?" Kaminari thought, scanning the surroundings for the source of the voice. Whoever was speaking was smart—dangerous, even—and that made them a priority.
But before he could locate the source, the voice rang out again, this time filled with disdain and frustration.
"Have you all forgotten the gift the BOSS gave us?!"
The surrounding villains hesitated, visibly torn. Some of them wavered, but ultimately, no one took action. Whatever "gift" the voice was referring to, it wasn't enough to override their fear of Kaminari.
Suddenly, the ground beneath Kaminari cracked open with a loud *crunch*, and two powerful arms burst out from the earth, grabbing onto his legs.
"Kaminari!" Momo and Kyoka screamed in unison, panic flashing across their faces.
A villain, hidden beneath the ground, had struck. His hands, now clamped around Kaminari's legs, crackled with a surge of electricity.
"You forgot the gift, but I haven't!" the villain growled, his voice filled with hatred. "You're finished, kid!"
But instead of panicking, Kaminari's face broke into a grin.
"Why is he smiling?" a nearby villain murmured, his eyes wide with disbelief.
"He's… laughing!" another one exclaimed, horrified by what he was witnessing.
Indeed, Kaminari was laughing. Even as the electricity from the villain's hands surged through him, Kaminari barely flinched. He looked down at the villain's hands and chuckled.
"Ah, the level difference between us really is big—especially when it comes to Quirks…" Kaminari smirked.
The lightning coursing through him was absorbed into his body with ease. His Quirk perfect for dealing with any electricity-based attack allowed him to take in the current like it was nothing. In fact, it was recharging him.
"Thanks for the charge," Kaminari said, his voice low and dangerous. "But now, it's time for you to disappear."
With a crack of electricity, Kaminari released a massive surge of golden lightning into the villain's arms. The current traveled straight down to the masked figure still hidden beneath the ground.
"Impossible… my level—" the villain's voice broke into a blood-curdling scream.
For five long seconds, the villain convulsed, his body unable to withstand the intense shock. His wails echoed across the battlefield until, finally, he passed out, his body limp.
"How pathetic," Kaminari said, stepping over the villain's unconscious form. "You thought you were something, but you're just a lackey."
He continued walking forward, his eyes scanning the remaining villains. They had completely lost their fighting spirit.
"Momo, how's it going?" Kaminari called back without looking.
"All done!" Momo shouted, throwing a small white bag toward him. Kaminari caught it mid-air, quickly checking the contents.
"Perfect," he muttered, eyeing the dozens of steel balls inside. He then looked up, locking eyes with the remaining villains. A devilish grin spread across his face.
"Now… it's your turn," he said, his voice laced with anticipation. "Don't worry. You won't die… probably."
With a powerful twist of his waist, Kaminari spun in place. As he did, he sent a small jolt of electricity into the steel balls, charging them with a crackling energy. In one smooth motion, he hurled all fifty steel balls into the air, scattering them in every direction.
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!"
The steel balls spread out, landing behind or beside the surrounding villains. Some of them looked down in confusion, sensing that something was wrong. They started to move, but it was too late.
"Chain Lightning. Three hundred thousand volts!"
Kaminari unleashed a torrent of electricity, more powerful than anything he had used before. The energy surged from his body, arcing toward the charged steel balls. The balls acted as conduits, spreading the electric current outward in all directions.
"Crack—crack—crack!"
"Ahhh!!"
The lightning tore through the battlefield, connecting each steel ball like a web of electrical fury. The villains caught within the circle screamed as the current surged through their bodies, their muscles spasming uncontrollably.
In an instant, the entire area within a twenty-meter radius was engulfed in golden light. Dozens of bodies fell to the ground, twitching as they were overwhelmed by the sheer voltage.
Kaminari stood at the center of the storm, his hair crackling with leftover electricity. His plan had worked perfectly.
He turned back toward Momo and Kyoka, who stood in awe.
"It's over…" he said quietly, watching as the last of the villains collapsed into unconsciousness.
