"I believe I mention this yesterday, but for now, Class 1-A of the hero course will be focusing on getting their provisional licenses" Aizawa reminded
"Yes, sir!" The class comply
"Sir! Yes, sir!" Izuku comply
"A hero license bears with it great responsibility of human life. Of course, the exam to receive one is very difficult. Even the provisional license has only 50% passing rate each year" Aizawa explain
"Just the provisional license is that hard?" Mineta ask nervous
"Life is way harder, Mineta" Izuku reminded
"That's why today, we will have each of you come up with at least two..." Aizawa said when Midnight, Cementos, and Ectoplasm enter the room "... ultimate moves" Aizawa finish
"Ultimate moves?!" The class yell surprise
"It's like a real school thing and yet it's like a super normal hero thing!" Mina, Kirishima, Sero, and Kaminari cheer excited
" "Ultimate" ! This means that this move will give you a sure win!" Ectoplasm explain
"A move so ingrained into your body that others cannot copy it. Battle means seeing how much you can force what you're good at your opponent" Cementos explain
"Your moves will represent you. These days, pro heroes without ultimate moves are an endangered species" Midnight added
"We will tell you more as we go along. We want to proceed logically. Change into your costumes and meet in Gym Gamma" Aizawa ordered
Later
"Gym Gamma, also known as the "Training Dining Land", or TDL" Aizawa introduce the Gym
'Why do I feel a certain mouse in the States will be mad at us' Izuku though as the others a little surprise back by the name
"I came up with the idea for these facilities. Terrain and other things can be prepared specifically for each students. That's what the "dining" part refers to" Cementos explain as he use his quirk to demonstrate
"I see..." Kaminari commented
"Please allow me to ask a question! Why must we have ultimate moves for our provisional licensing exam?" Iida ask
"The job of a hero is to save people from danger, like crimes, accidents, natural disasters, and man-made disasters. The exam to become one natural looks at how well you are able to do that. Your ability to gather information, make decisions, move, and fight, in addition to your ability to communicate, draw people to you, and lead. Every year, a different test is used to look at how well you are able to do those things" Aizawa explain
"Of those, your ability to fight is especially important to your futures as heroes. If you are prepared, you won't have to worry whether or not you have an ultimate move will greatly affect whether or not you pass" Midnight explain
"Not being influenced by circumstances and being able to act consistently will make you a great asset on the front lines" Cementos added
"The training camp was cancelled, but the training you did to develop your quirks was part of the process to create your ultimate moves. In other words. Until the beginning of the next semester, for the ten days or so until the end of summer vacation, you'll be working out your ultimate moves as you develop your quirks. You'll be doing intense training!" Aizawa explain as Cementos create multiple mountains and Ectoplasm create many copy of himself
"In addition, you should think about how you can improve your costumes to work better with your developing quirks. Get through this "Plus Ultra" mentality. Are you ready?" Aizawa ask
"Yes, sir!" The students comply
"Ooh rah!" Izuku comply
Ojiro attack Ectoplasm copy with martial arts moves but Ectoplasm evaded and kick Ojiro in the face making him to fall down
"Your movement say "I move like this because I have a tail". Let's re-examine the fundamentals of how you move" Ectoplasm copy lecture
"Yes, sir!" Ojiro comply
"Ultimate move! Shooting acid from my hands like this!" Mina yell as she shoot a short acid flow from her palms "How is it?" She ask
"If you're going to take that route, then make a nozzle with your fingers and squeeze it out" Ectoplasm copy recommend
Mina do what Ectoplasm copy told her and she create a strong flow of acid "Wow, I can shoot further now!" She cheer
"Shall we have you focus your acid to develop it further?" Ectoplasm copy offer
"Create two things at the same time. You can start with something simple" Ectoplasm copy ordered Yaoyorozu
"Yes, sir!" Yaoyorozu comply then she create two poles at the same time
An Ectoplasm copy is standing in the middle of the training area, watching his surrounding. He then notice something just dashes from his left, then from the right, from the front, from behind, from above, from below. Something or someone is moving faster than Ectoplasm copy could see
As Ectoplasm copy continue to watch his surrounding, the figure jump to Ectoplasm rear then dash towards him. Ectoplasm realize this then kick back but no one is there, and the next thing he knew, Izuku is right in front of him holding a a knife against his throat
"You're dead" Izuku said smiling
"Congratulation. You've been relying on your brute strength and loud attacks, so I figure to ask you to do a stealth attack on me, but looks like I underestimate you. Not just you have the speed and and mobility to make me confuse where are you really are, but when you want to be stealthy you are almost impossible to find" Ectoplasm copy praise
"Thank you, sir. This kind of training is what we must master if we want to be a Ranger Corp Special Forces" Izuku reply
"I see, but the reason you are faster and more nimbler is because of what you are wearing right?" Ectoplasm copy ask
"Y/XOS-9 Multi-purpose Enhanced Combat Suit or MECS for short. Though this one is still a prototype" Izuku explain as he is now wearing a full body exosuit that increase his speed, strength, and maneuverability also a new helmet with air filter making Izuku able to fight in nuclear, biological, or chemical hazard environment
On his left arm is a retractable tactical ballistic shield. The shield is able to withstand a full auto 7.62mm bullet from 50 meters away, though anything larger than a 50.cal is enough to penetrate the shield
Oh his right arm is a retractable tactical blade. A 20cm/8inch retractable blade that able to cut down anything and can be used as a surprise attack or a stealth kill
On the backpack is a powerful jet booster. A booster with 200 kg of thrust making Izuku able to jump higher or descend slower. The booster can activate for 60 seconds before running out of fuel
M227A1 bullpup assault rifle. Izuku's new primary weapon using the new 6.8mm cartridge. The attachment are; ACOG Scope, Infrared Illuminator Laser, Angled Fore Grip, and Canted Iron Sight
FN FIVE-SEVEN. Izuku's new service pistol using the 5.7mm cartridge, it also equipped with an Infrared Illuminator Laser
The other weapons and attachment are the same as the old one; 6 AR magazine on the body armor, 4 pistol magazine, 2 frag grenades, 1 smoke grenade, 1 9-banger, and only 1 combat knife, all stored on his belt
"Since you can't improve your quirk for fighting, you improve your body" Ectoplasm copy said
"That's right, sir" Izuku confirm
Meanwhile Aizawa is watching the students from near the entrance when he hear someone coming in
"Everyone's working hard, huh?" Someone ask
Aizawa look back and see All Might in his muscle form "All Might" he said
"I am here even through I wasn't asked to be because I didn't have anything else to do today!" All Might greet
"Are you okay, All Might? It's been a while since I see you" Midnight ask
"I though you decide to quit" Aizawa said
"Hey, don't be so cold. I just having treatment from Young Midoirya" All Might claim
"Treatment?" Midnight ak confuse
"Midoriya?" Aizawa ask confuse
"Yeah, Young Midoriya offer me a treatment for my body and now I don't have to hold back anymore. I can be in this form as long as I want" All Might explain surprising Aizawa and Midnight
"You don't have to take a rest anymore?" Midnight ask curious
"Yes, my one hour time limit is gone" All Might reply proudly
"What kind of treatment did Midoriya give you?" Aizawa ask
"Well, he cured my injury" All Might reply as he remember his conversation with Izuku 2 weeks ago
Flashback
All Might is preparing to leave the hospital he is in since he flee Kamino and his condition is not good
"Sigh, Even though my fight with AFO is not as heavy as with Nomu in USJ, it still cut my time limit. Only 10 minutes of hero time? That is not enough" All Might clench his fist
"I might able to help you with that" Someone said surprising All Might
"AHHHHH!!!" All Might yell surprise then look back and see Izuku "Oh my God, Young Midoriya, you almost give me a heart attack" All Might said trying to control his breathe
"Sorry about that, though it's nice to see you all right" Izuku apologize
"Hahaha, what part of me is all right, Young Midoriya?" All Might joked making Izuku laugh a little
"How about you, Young Midoriya? Are you all right?" All Might ask
"I'm fine, All Might, though I have a shit ton of paperwork" Izuku reply annoyed
"Ah, paperwork. They never escape anyone, eh?" All Might joked
"No, no they don't" Izuku reply smiling
"So if you have paperwork, why you're here?" All Might ask
"'Cause that could wait, but what I about to tell you is not" Izuku reply confusing All Might "All Might, I have an offer for you regarding your quirk and body" Izuku said seriously
"What is this you are offering to me?" All Might ask realizing the seriousness of the conversation
"I can't tell you, not here. I need you to come with me" Izuku reply looking around "You trust me?" He ask
All Might look at Izuku for a while "I do" He reply
10 minutes later, Ranger Corp HQ Hospital, Yokohama, Tokyo
"Where are we going, Young Midoriya?" All Might ask as he follow Izuku through the hospital hallway
"We're here" Izuku said as he open a door and inside is a female doctor and a metal container
"All Might, Dr. Helen Cho" Izuku introduce the female doctor
"It's an honor to finally meet you All Might" Dr. Helen greet
"Ah, the honor is mine, doctor" All Might greet back
"So you might wonder what is this metal container, right?" Izuku ask as he approach the container
"That is one of the many questions I have" All Might reply
"This thing is called the Regeneration Cradle. A breakthrough in medical technology" Izuku explain
"So what did it do?" All Might ask
"Did you remember when Shit-garaki make a hole on my neck?" Izuku ask
"Uh, I think you said his name wrong" All Might said
"No I didn't" Izuku reply coldly
"Okay, yeah I remember your injury" All Might reply nervously
"Well this thing cured me" Izuku explain confusing All Might
"Cured you? How?" All Might ask confuse and curious
Izuku glance at Dr. Helen "This device is able to print living tissue directly to the patient. The nano-molecular functionality is instantaneous. The cells don't even know they're bonding with simulacra" Dr. Helen explain
"Or in a much more understandable words is that you are being healed and didn't feel any pain" Izuku explain
"This device can do that?" All Might ask amazed
"Yes, though at first, it can only print tissue that is close to the surface" Izuku reply
"But we have make a breakthrough that make us able to print internal organs" Dr. Helen added
"Like your stomach" Izuku claim surprising All Might
"So, you mean, this device can..." All Might said surprise
"Print a living, functioning stomach and lung to your body" Izuku finish while All Might sit down in shock
"But... why me? Why don't you use it on the people that is injured on Kamino?" All Might ask
"We already heal them, All Might" Dr. Helen reply surprising him
"We already heal them and the device works, now we're offering you" Izuku explain
"But... I don't know if I wanted this" All Might said sadly
"You think like that because you already give OFA to your successor, Mirio, right?" Izuku ask
"Huh?! How?!" All Might yell surprise to the core
"Don't be so surprise, All Might. We know everything about OFA and AFO longer than you are old, and we know what happen about them recently as well" Izuku said while All Might still look surprise
"All Might, Mirio may have OFA now, but he is still not ready. So until he is ready to replace you as your successor, we still need you. So what do you say?" Izuku ask
"The world still needs me, and I've given the chance to heal this injury, why should I say no? Okay, I'll do it" All Might reply confidently
"Excellent, now let's get started" Izuku said smiling
Flashback end
"He able to heal the injury that has pull me back for years. And now I feel refreshed, I don't have anything to do so I came here. This is the class for ultimate moves, right? There's no way I want to miss this. I am a teacher, too, you know" All Might said as he walk inside
In a distance, Bakugou is flying towards Ectoplasm copy and blasted him. When the smoke cleared, the copy is gone
"It's been a while since I've been able to go wild! It feels good!" Bakugou claim excited
"Ectoplasm! Mine died! Give me another!" Bakugou yell at the real Ectoplasm
"He's amazing" All Might claim
"Yeah. He'll definitely get even stronger" Aizawa agree
"Oooh! Bakugou's really into it!" Uraraka said as she float above the training ground
"That guy's already got a lot of different for his ultimate move, huh?" Sato ask as he eat some cake
"He had a name from the entrance exam!" Toru said
"Whoa!" Uraraka yelp surprise as she loses balance
"Focus!" Ectoplasm copy lecture
"Y-yes, sir!" Uraraka comply
"I've got a move I've been working on since I was a kid called Grape Rush, you know" Mineta brag
"I mean, everyone's though about it before, right? I though about doing a lightning sword or something. I'm getting excited just thinking about being able to do it for real in place like this" Kaminari claim excited
"I think it's better if you just created a taser sword or taser knife, Kaminari" Izuku recommend
"Ooh! That's sounds awesome! Thank you, Midoriya!" Kaminari claim excited
"Young Midoriya" All Might greet Izuku
"All Might" Izuku greet back
"So you just improving your costume, eh?" All Might ask
"My quirk already maxed out, so I have to improve somewhere else" Izuku reply
"How about your ultimate moves?" All Might ask
"I don't have one. Well, I do have one but it's too destructive" Izuku reply
"Really? What is your ultimate moves?" All Might ask curious
"Tactical Nuclear Strike" Izuku reply calmly. Once he said this, everyone stop and look at Izuku in disbelieve
"Like I said, too destructive. So unless someone like AFO appear again, I won't use my ultimate move" Izuku said making the others to sigh out in relief and continue whatever they were doing
"All right then, good luck" All Might said then he walk away
"Ooh rah" Izuku reply then he grab his rifle
"Young Kirishima!" All Might greet
"All Might!" Kirishima greet back
"I have an advise. With your hardening, rather than trying for small tricks, you should try to bulldoze your way through" All Might advised
"Yes, sir!" Kirishima comply
"Young Jiro! I have some advise" All Might said as he approach Jiro
'What are you doing, all the sudden?' Aizawa though confuse as he watch All Might
Later that afternoon
Izuku is walking through the hallway towards the Development Studio
'Hmm, so far all the systems and hardware are working as I expected. I just need some fine tuning in some aspect' Izuku though as he reach the Development Studio door
"Oh, Midoriya! I was wondering where you were!" Uraraka yell as she and Iida walk towards the Development Studio as well
"Don't run in the hallway!" Iida scold as Uraraka run ahead
"Midoriya, are you here for costume improvements, too?" Uraraka ask as she run towards Izuku
"Oh, Uraraka-" Izuku greet but then he hear something from inside the studio. He is confuse for a second before he jump and grab Uraraka away just in time when suddenly the door exploded
"Midoriya! Uraraka!" Iida yell terrified
A few meters from the door, Midoriya hug Uraraka in a protective manner while deploying his tactical shield towards the door
"Haaa... haaa... haaa... you okay...?" Izuku ask Urara worried
"I-I-I'm f-fine..." Uraraka reply shaken
"Are you two all right?" Iida ask worried
"We're good..." Izuku reply as he and Uraraka slowly get up
"You know, you really shouldn't just put everything you think of together!" Someone from the studio yell
"Hehe, "Failure is the mother of invention", Mr. Power Loader, as Thomas Edison once said. Even if what I made doesn't work the way I planned, that doesn't mean it was a waste of time" Hatsume from the sports festival claim
"This isn't the time for that! Will you listen to me for one, Hatsume?" Power Loader scold
"Oh when were you three get here?" Hatsume ask as he notice the trio
"That's the only thing you're worried about?" Iida ask in disbelieve while Izuku is trying to calm down a shaken Uraraka
"Sorry about the sudden explosion! uh... I've forgotten all of your names" Hatsume somewhat greet the trio
"She really did have some loose screw somewhere where her brain suppose to be" Izuku said annoyed
"I'm Tenya Iida! I'm the man you used as an advertising tower during the sports festival tournament!" Iida yell annoyed
"I see! By the way. How long does you two plan on hugging?" Hatsume ask Uraraka who is busy hugging Izuku
"Eh? Waaaaaa! I'm s-s-s-sorry, Midoriya!" Uraraka yell embarrassed as she move away from Izuku
"It's fine, you just survive an unexpected explosion. It's alright if you're afraid" Izuku assure
"Oh! look at that baby!" Hatsume yell as he notice Izuku's exosuit and run towards him, big mistake
Izuku evade, tackle, and lock Hatsume to the ground "This is a military grade hardware, and you don't have permission to touch it. So stay back" Izuku warned then he release Hatsume
"Oww, but that baby is so beautiful" Hatsume claim
"Sorry, this thing is off limits" Izuku stated
"Then why you came here for if I'm not allowed to touch it for improvement?"Hatsume ask
"I'm just here for fine tuning not improvement. And the only one allowed to improve this are the RnD of Ranger Corp, not you" Izuku reply making Hatsume to pout
"Uh, we're the one who want to improve our costume" Uraraka said then Hatsune look at her so fast her neck should've dislocate
"Improving costume! Sounds interesting!" Hatsume yell as she is now in front of Uraraka's face, surprising her in the process
"Hatsume! It's fine for you to come in and out of the studio now that the dorm system is in place, but if you go wild in here any more, I'm going to banish you!" Power loader threaten
"I've already heard from Eraserhead. You're here about changing your costumes as you develop your ultimate moves, right? Come in" Power Loader said then the four of them enter the studio
"It's like a secret hideout!" Uraraka said excited
"I just need a screwdriver" Izuku requested
"You can find them there in the corner, but are you really need a screwdriver?" Power Loader ask
"Only me and Ranger Corp RnD are allowed to tune this suit, sir. You may have a license but you need a military grade one for this" Izuku reply then he move away
"Okay then, good luck with the tuning" Power Loader said then he face Iida and Uraraka
"Now, show me the instructions for your costume. It's in the case with your costume, right?" Power Loader ask then Iida and Uraraka grab their instruction
"I have a license to make costumes, so I'll tinker with what I can using that" Power Loader claim
"Um, I would like you to strengthen the cooling device on my legs" Iida requested when suddenly Hatsume is behind him, dangerously close
"If that's the case, then... there's this baby!" Hatsume yell as she force attached 2 arm booster at Iida's arm
"Hey" Iida said nervously
"This in an electric booster for super coolers that can cool things that give off heat! Baby number 36!" Hatsume explain as Uraraka slowly walking toward Izuku
"No, I don't need to change my booster, Hatsume!" Iida denied
"Booster, on!" Hatsume ignore Iida and press the active button. Iida suddenly boosted to the ceiling
"Iida!" Uraraka yell terrified
"What the fuck?!" Izuku yell surprise a he jump and deactivate the booster before bringing Iida down
"My quirk is on my legs, you mad women" Iida said depressed
"I know. But you know what I think? If you want to cool your legs, then why don't you run with your arms?" Hatsume suggested
"What in the world are you saying?!" Iida yell angrily
"That is somewhat smart yet at the same time stupid" Izuku said sweatdropping
"Stop messing around!" Power Loader smack Hatsume
"That's abuse" Hatsume claim
"I'm sorry, she's to self centered" Power Loader apologize
"I know that very well" Iida claim depressed
"Yeah" Uraraka agree as well
"Well, speaking of costume. What changes are you want to make, Uraraka?" Izuku ask
"I want to control my nausea more..." Uraraka reply when suddenly Hatsume appear behind her
"Is that so?" Hatsume ask surprising Uraraka and Izuku "In that case, how about this?" Hatsume ask as he grab what looks like a barrel of gun powder from the old wild west cartoon
"What is that? Will it explode?!" Uraraka yell terrified
"If you do this to the item..." Hatsume said then suddenly black smokes exited the barrel
"Something black come out!" Uraraka scream terrified
"Hatsume!" Iida scream terrified
"Get behind me!" Izuku ordered then Iida and Uraraka get behind Izuku, then Izuku deploy his tactical shield
"BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMM!!!" The device, whatever it is explode and knocked out the door again
"It exploded! Sorry!" Hatsume apologize
"The fuck is wrong with you?!" Izuku yell annoyed
