CHAPTER START---
The road cracks below Buakaw's feet as he lands upon it, having leapt from the skyscraper a few streets away.
Standing like an obelisk in the street mobs of people run past him to get away from the incoming villain.
With each of Gigantomachia's steps, the ground trembles, people become more scared, and by the second, more people abandon their vehicles and flee on foot, desperate to get ahead of the destruction.
"HERO!!!!"
Machia's voice shakes the city as he crashes through a building, locking eyes with Buakaw, who doesn't even flinch.
As the Machia rushes forward, on all fours he's already standing at 20 meters tall -65ft-, Buakaw takes careful steps toward him, ignoring all the civilians around them.
Machia growls and raises his hand as he arrives in front of Buakaw, ready to slam down and flatten the hero.
'Virya: Art of Eight Limbs!'
BOOM!
A sudden burst of golden light blinds everyone as Machia is sent careening down the street, rolling multiple times before crashing into a 5 story building, collapsing it atop him.
The shockwave clears out the street, blasting away all the rubble and even vehicles, causing even more collateral damage.
Terrifying the crowds of people that were only standing meters away, but even as the golden light blinded them and the blast cleared the street.
They were completely unharmed.
As the dust clears Buakaw is standing with both his arms glowing golden, brimming with energy from his Quirk, Virya.
A solid-energy emitter Quirk.
He rips off the top of his robe to show his perfectly sculpted muscles, golden rivers of power glowing between them, showing off the definition even more.
And around him, all the civilians that would be dead are trapped in glowing blue bubbles of energy.
Buakaw doesn't even bother to glance at the people trapped in the Hymn Of Protection, the signature move of Thailand's Head Priestess, his wife.
Machia only takes a second to get back on his feet, shaking his head slightly from the punchs he took, too fast for him to even realize what really happened.
As Machi charges yet again, his Quirks now take full effect. And Buakaw matches his rush, meeting him in the middle.
As they're rushing Buakaw notices some strange things about his opponent.
'He's growing...' Buakaw notices Machia grow to 22 meters -72ft- in a matter of seconds.
His Gigantification Quirk adapting to the surprising power of his opponent.
Machia slams down with his right hand to flatten Buakaw, only for the hero to leap up to his face and land a strong right, to his jaw, the exact same place as before.
But this time Machia stands his ground.
'He's tougher now?'
His Quirk, Fierce Gains, allows his muscles and skin to harden to exceptional levels.
In combination with Pain Blocker and Energy saver, this makes Machia a tank that has to be dealt with sooner rather than later, because the longer you fight the stronger he gets, and in a match of attrition, his primary Quirk will ensure his victory.
"RAARRRWWW!"
Taking the hit to his chin Machia doesn't waste any time bringing up his other hand and swatting Buakaw out of the air.
As the bubbles containing the civilians are floating away Machia slams his hand into the road, breaking through to the sewer below, but Buakaw isn't there when he raises his hand.
"This doesn't seem like regular Gigantification," Hodori says, catching Machia's attention.
Looking to the side he sees both heroes standing there completely unharmed, at the last moment Hodori used his astonishing speed to get Buakaw to safety, fashionably late as always.
"The league has those Nomu monsters, this is likely the same situation," Buakaw says as they rush forward.
"Let's tear him apart!" Hodori yells out as his shoes tear apart, his feet and hands transform into claws with white fur, his teeth become fangs and his eyes shift into a bright red while the hair on his head becomes wild, the white appearing as if it were glowing slightly.
"No!" Buakaw says as they dodge and weave through Machia's attacks, "lead him to the park!"
"RARGH!" Hodori doesn't even form words to respond, instead leaping up to Machia's neck and punching at his jugular, claws first.
CRACK!
His hand reaches up to his palm into Machia but the size of his opponent and the toughness of his skin makes the injury irrelevant.
Hodori removes his hand and just barely leaps away in time to avoid being swatted, looking down at his broken claws, covered in Machia's blood, already regrown by the time he lands.
"Fine!" Hodori relents, deciding to 'play nice'.
'Virya Shot: Rapid Fire!'
A dozen fist-sized shots of golden energy hit Machi in the face, slightly annoying him and pulling his attention from Hodori toward Buakaw.
"You're supposed to be hunting us, so come get us," Buakaw says as he does a dozen more punches in the blink of an eye, each launching another shot of energy.
He immediately takes off toward the nearest park, trying to find an open space so that they may really fight.
Hodori falls into step beside him as they run, all the while a walking natural disaster is giving chase behind them.
"Can't you just knock him out?" Hodori asks.
"I need space if I'm to do that, and against someone like this we don't know what other Quirk he could be hiding, we need to make sure he doesn't have any more tricks to surprise us with."
Only a few seconds later at their immense speed, they arrive at Hiroshima's Atomic Memorial Park, seeing that it's already been evacuated. This gives them a few city blocks worth of space which they don't have to worry about.
And as they turn around to face the villain...
'What the hell?' they both think at once, now laying eyes on the transformed Gigantomachia.
Standing at 25m -82ft-, the mound of muscle on his back now transformed into massive spikes across his back.
His hands were now adorned with gargantuan claws and another layer of tougher armor. His jaw detached and reinforced before sliding up above his eyes to protect his face, and his teeth became sharper and tougher, as well as growing two large tusks from the bottom of his mouth.
Quirk: Mole.
A transformation Quirk that gives the user the properties of a Mole, allowing better burrowing and digging, higher mobility, enhanced senses, and toughness.
Combined with his Quirk: Dog, this makes it possible for him to pick up a scent from hundreds of miles away, effectively if someone is on the same continent they will eventually be found by him, and if he already has their scent, they can't even hide.
BOOM!
The sound barrier shatters as Machi brings down his clawed hand to crush the two heroes.
Hodori immediately dashes away, understanding your limits is important, especially to survive as a top pro. His quirk is good in physical combat but not meant for slugfests like this. Atleast not at this level.
But Buakaw...he's always been this type of monster.
A kind and gentle man for 99% of his life, the last person to start or escalate a fight.
But this is the 1%, this, is Buakaw in the ring.
'Virya: Art of 16 Limbs!'
Hodori glances back to see the hand slam down on Buakaw, as a golden light is released from his body.
BOOM!
The entire park shatters, and all the surrounding buildings begin crumbling from the force of this impact. Hodori is careful not to lose his footing, staying on guard for any surprise villains joining the fight.
But Buakaw is standing strong, beneath the giant's hand that never touched the ground.
Buakaw had his arms up against the palm, caught by his sheer physical power as his body glows.
And his 6 arms match Machia's strength.
"RAARGGGGGGHHHHHHHH!" Buakaw's scream rips through the air as he tosses Machi toward the other end of the park, sending the giant tumbling and tearing up the area.
Hodori takes a step back in surprise, not by the power he just witnessed, everyone knows Buakaw is a monster in the ring.
But from the anger and hate-filled expression on the kind man's face.
As Buakaw hunches down and rushes forward, the 4 additional glowing golden arms protruding from his shoulders and back begin to launch energy shots with each punch as he closes the distance.
The solid-energy arms match his flesh and blood arms perfectly, the sight was something that very few people ever experienced fighting against, and none have ever lasted more than one round against it.
Buakaw leaps up and meets Machia's fist with his 3 right fists, the impact knocks both men a few meters back before they charge once again.
Shutting off their brains and just fighting.
And to Hodori, no matter how relaxed and calm he tried to remain, to contain his instincts, to fight his nature, to reign in his Quirk.
The gleeful expression on his face told a completely different story.
"This is...so much fun!" He screams out as his shirt and pants begin tearing apart.
White fur begins growing out from his body as it begins bulking up, black stripes flowing across it as he takes his hybrid form.
His eyes focus in on Machia as all his fur stands on end and his tail comes out.
Quirk: Tiger, a transformation that allows the user to do anything a tiger can but magnitudes better.
Of all the Pro Heroes, the second most powerful animal transformation Quirk.
Only beaten by America's #3 Pro Hero, the man with, at the moment, the strongest punch in the world.
Hodori's roar rips through the park, but both the other combatants are too focused on each other to notice.
Until a white blur slams into Gigantomachia, knocking him onto his side and disrupting the stalemate.
And as these monsters continue to fight, the news helicopters and drones are recording everything, the fight to officially end an era...

CHAPTER START---
---2 Minutes 40 Seconds Remaining...
Machia gets back up and charges into the fight once again, only to be hit in the back of his head by Hodori.
As his face is sent toward the floor Buakaw crouches down and focuses even more energy on his arms.
'Virya Blitz!'
As if the world entirely froze, with Machia's face only inches away from him, Buakaw unleashes two thousand punches so fast that it once again appears as a golden burst of light.
BOOM!
The shockwave from all the punches is combined into one because they effectively happened simultaneously.
Machia is launched into the air and slams onto his back.
As he's on the floor Hodori crunches into a prowler's stance, rocketing forward, destroying the ground at his feet and the sound barrier in his way as he slashes at Machia's jugular once more.
This time up to his forearm sinks in, but then he immediately withdraws his arm and leaps away as the giant swats at him.
Seeing the incoming hand he leaps up and kicks it away, but Fierce Gains is working overtime now.
The same Quirk that had Machia's skin and muscle toughen around Hodori's arm moments ago, trying to crush it to pieces in the wound. Also causes the giant's entire body to harden even more.
And Hodori's kick connects to barely do any damage, only knocking the arm away.
Feeling completely pissed off by the toughness of his opponent, Hodori's muscles bulk up as he goes further into his transformation.
His claws now begin glowing red as his eyes leave a red trail of light with every movement.
"JUST DIE!" Hodori screams as he charges forward and punches Machi in the head.
A flurry of relentless blows that would make almost anyone into a corpse.
The wind and tremors from his attack has rubble and debris blowing toward the edges of the battlefield.
"Together!" Buakaw screams as he comes down rocketing into Machia's forehead, six arms crashing down like thunder.
---1 Minute 10 Seconds Remaining...
Flying across Japan on his hoverboard, Horizon has left the other heroes behind simply because they couldn't fly as fast, or as far.
Looking at the fight being projected into his visor, he's on the phone with Nezu discussing exactly what is going on.
"Are you sure UA is safe?" Horizon asks.
"Completely, this is Shigaraki trying to take a place on the international stage."
"By killing two #1 Pro Heroes?" Horizon asks. "Sounds like a fast way into the grave."
"Hmm, in most cases yes. If a #1 Hero dies in his own country that's fine, but to have one die in another country would be a massive blow to that country, and demand retaliation.
This is why most villains don't attack heroes when they travel abroad. If Buakaw or Hodori die in this battle then the United Nations Hero Department will have to send heavy hitters to Japan to wipe out the league.
Because allowing Shigaraki to exist after something like that would simply make all heroes look weaker, and potentially set the precedent for him to hunt down their top Pro Heroes one day."
"I still don't see how this is a win for him," Horizon says. "Nobody can deal with Star and Stripe knocking on their door, even with Gigantomachia..."
They see Buakaw and Hodori still trading blows with the villain, but this time the fight strays out of the park slightly as Machi knocks Buakaw through some building a few blocks away.
But Hodori takes center stage to draw all eyes onto him for Buakaw to get back in the fight.
"True," Nezu says. "But that may not be the point."
"What do you mean?"
"Well, he doesn't have to get everyone after him, he simply has to show that he's willing and capable of atleast starting the fight, even if it's only until Star and Stripe enters the battle."
"So this is all a publicity stunt, a show of force?"
"Possibly...but either way, I fear that Japan is already in shambles. The fact that a villain felt comfortable enough to attack our guests, and our Top Pros weren't around to help, it's a bad look."
"So on the international stage---"
"We're on our own, that much is already certain..."
---15 Seconds Reaming...
With Machia constantly getting up no matter how much they try to rattle his brain, Buakaw and Hodori are more annoyed that exhausted.
And for the first time in his life, Buakaw was actually concerned about the bell, this round was about to finish, and the fight wasn't anywhere near over.
With a low growl, he leaps away from the battle, leaving Hodori to deal with Machia for a moment.
Making a fist with each hand he covers his chest, the intense golden glow from his arms becomes much brighter, and all eyes fall to Buakaw as he unleashes something he hasn't been forced to use in decades.
"Virya Burst!" he releases a blood-chilling battle cry as he flexes his arms, now bulked up with seemingly intricate golden armor covering them.
His arms are many times bigger, with golden energy pouring off of them, an intimidating yet inspiring sight. Thailand's Pride in full effect.
"RARGH!" he screams out and flies forward, not leaping or running, flying, propelled by his own energy.
Before Machia can react the golden meteor slams into him, causing a shockwave so large that it knocks Hodori and the news helicopters that were high above away.
14
As Machi is thrown through the air Buakaw accelerates, flying below Machia and punching upward with his left arms.
BOOM!
13
Another golden explosion sends the giant flying 15m -50ft- into the air, only for Buakaw to continue.
12
BOOM!
Another uppercut as Buakaw soars above the nearby buildings.
10
BOOM!
With another uppercut, Machia feels his brain rattling around his skull, seconds in and out of consciousness.
8
And finally, as they're 90m -300ft- above the ground, instead of an uppercut Buakaw holds onto Machi.
6
"Virya Toss!"
"RARRGHHH!" Both combatants roar as Buakaw spins Machia and tosses his down toward the city, collapsing everything for hundreds of meters.
His absolute faith in his wife and the other heroes allows him to fight recklessly.
4
"VIRYA CRASH!" Buakaw screams as he rockets down, like a golden beam of light, sent by the heavens to smite this villain.
The ensuing shockwave causes damage which they're be trying to calculate for months to come.
And when the dust and light dissipate, Buakaw is standing on Machia's chest, panting heavily, slouched over, arms bleeding and hanging at his sides.
0
His Quirk entirely shut off, all the golden power now gone.
Because his Quirk can only last for 3 Minutes in stage 2 -the six armed state, The Art Of 16 Limbs-.
After this, he needs time to reset, and the more energy he uses in that time, the longer the reset.
But nobody has ever lasted more than 1 round, or even more than 1 minute against that state.
Looking at Machia, they see his eyes rolled back in his head as he lies unconscious.
Buakaw takes careful breaths, his body aching as he tries to move, to look strong, another clean knockout.
But unfortunately, this is Gigantomachia, he's the furthest thing from 'normal'.
He was the blueprint for the Nomu, and even now they can't properly replicate this success in another subject.
He's just different, and it's largely thanks to his own original Quirk.
Hodori's primal instincts feel this in effect, and he immediately rushes in.
ENDURANCE!
R̷͚͉̭̞̰̗̍̊̓̾̕Ą̴̡̛͉̰̙͉̱̲͕͉̯̎͌̔̓͘̚͜Ẅ̵̨̛̛͖͕̜̱͙͇̳́̒̎͘ͅW̷̘̥̍̒͌̕W̶̭̤̦̍͛́̆̄R̷̦̾Ģ̷̖̂́̓͑̓̽̂͑̍͐͒̚͝Ḡ̴̬͖̲̿̀͘͜H̷̢͉̘̘͚̞̝͊̊͜͠!̷̡̧̼̖̌̓͐̌͆̓͐́̈̊͝ͅ!̸̨͚̙̹͕̝͍̲̮̪̘̒̈́̊͌́̎̍̏͑̿͝͠ͅ
Machia's eyes snap back to focus and glare directly at the powerless Buakaw.
Machia immediately slams his hand onto his chest to splatter Buakaw, but Hodori had already begun moving and thankfully gets him out of there.
"What the hell, a second wind?" Buakaw asks as Hodori sets him down at the edge of the battlefield.
Both heroes watch Machia get up as if he had another adrenaline surge, the lingering injuries remaining, thankfully he can't heal. But his stamina just seemed endless...because, in some ways, it was.
Quirk: Endurance, converts morale into energy. In simple terms, his superpower is to never give up, to be relentless, and to fulfill his master's order no matter what.
And with a one-track mind like Gigantomachia's, he's a perpetual motion machine while on task.
"Tch, do we wait for someone with a more suitable Quirk?" Hodori asks, glancing at Buakaw who was trying to save his energy.
"Horizon is still atleast an hour away, and Endeavor is even further, we need to end this," Buakaw says. Forcing himself to stand on his own.
"Can you?"
Buakaw looks at Hodori, then at Machia who was staring at them, clearly hurting but about to start charging anyway. "Time..."
"You'll have it," Hodori says as he takes a few steps forward, standing between both men. "Tch, I hope this doesn't scare the ladies too much," he grumbles.
The sound of his bones cracking and breaking reaches Buakaw as Hodori's body begins expanding and bulking up even further.
The white fur covered his entire body as the black tiger stripes spread out.
In a matter of seconds, he takes his full regal white tiger form, and his stripes begin glowing slightly, flickering red like his claws as he stands on all fours. Before they become solid red, overflowing with primal power.
Standing at 3m -9ft- at shoulder height.
"Hodo---" Buakaw's words are cut short as Hodori turns around and swipes at him, thankfully the man inside the beast control it just enough for the attack to miss.
Buakaw stumbles back, keeping his eyes on Hodori, now realizing why the hero would rather die than use this form in most cases.
Without someone powerful enough to warrant it's full attention, everyone becomes a target.
And when you're the most powerful person in your country, that's not a risk you can take.
"HEROES!" Machia screams out, thankfully causing Hodori's attention to snap to him instead.
Hodori leaps forward as Machia charges, but only lands a few meters away from Buakaw before taking a low stance.
Buakaw can feel the air being pulled into Hodori's massive and powerful lungs, almost pulling him off his feet.
"GRRRR RRAAARRR!"
Hodori's roar hits like the blast wave from a nuke.
Tearing apart the entire park to such an extent that it was dug out for a few meters.
People for miles in every direction were forced to cover their ears.
And even further beyond that, the frequency of his roar caused living things to become paralyzed with fear.
Keeping the roar going he sees Machia trying to power through it.
Even as his eyes rupture and explode out of their sockets.
Even as his blood vessels begin to burst and pop.
Even as his eardrums instantly shattered, thanks to his enhanced senses.
But Gigantomachia could still smell them, laboring against the blast wave he digs in his claws, moving barely a few steps within a minute.
And after five minutes, Hodori finally reaches his limit.
Feeling his lungs burning and tasting his own blood in his mouth he's forced to stop his constant roar.
The tiger shakes its head and sways for a moment, feeling lightheaded before standing strong, only to see Machia speeding up his approach.
And Hodori immediately prepares to do that all over again.
Until a golden light shines behind him.
"Virya: The Art Of 108 Limbs!"
Looking behind him Hodori is truly humbled by the magnificence of Buakaw's strongest attack.
Standing in a prayer stance with his hands together, a manifestation of his prayer beads made of the same energy float around his neck.
His solid white eyes are glowing a radiant gold as 100 solid-energy arms are spread out behind him, protruding from his back to make a large circular shape.
Hodori, now reverted back to his hybrid form, immediately gets out of the way as Buakaw begins moving his hands.
Slowly and deliberately shifts his right hand into a fist while the left is flat with the palm facing forward, and all the arms behind him copy his right hand.
And as Machi makes his final approach...
"Virya: Enlightenment," Buakaw says in the softest and most compassionate voice.
Inviting his foe into a new life...
RRIIINNNNGGGGG!!!!!
The sharp ringing caused by all the energy released into the air travels for miles in every direction, and it's immediately followed by a wave of light that outshines the moon in the sky.
And all that's left is Gigantomachia laying on his back in a 100m wide glowing golden crater, and as that glow too fades, the broken giant is finally defeated.
Buakaw feels all his energy gone, he'd need atleast a week before he can use his Quirk again, but this victory was seemingly worth it.
Hodori stands beside him at the edge of the crater, sporting a few new injuries which were very slowly healing, he stood a bit too close to the blast zone.
The world cheers for these heroes, and the greatest battle that never should have been, but they couldn't even enjoy a moment of victory...
'Warp Gate'
A flood of purple mist swarms the crater, enveloping Gigantomachia and whisking him away before they could capture him.
But as the Warp Gate shrinks, it projects Shigaraki's voice far and wide for the city to hear.
"Nngh," he gives an annoyed growl, then calms down. "You people really call us monsters, when you worship people like that, what a bad joke. But atleast now we have a baseline...Machia will be ready next time..."
A lethal promise to the world.
And just like that, All Might's era of peace in japan is officially over, and the age of chaos begins once more...
