Chereads / That Legendary Man / Chapter 40 - Bo-Taoshi

Chapter 40 - Bo-Taoshi

Mia leans forward as he takes note of things seemingly slowing down and he bolts forward and planting his left foot down, cracking the ground under it and jumping into the air. The crowd cheers like crazy as Mia kicks the pole with all his strength almost knocking it down. Mia quickly grabs the pole and spins around behind it putting his weight on the back as the rest of the offense team rushes in and piles on the pole knocking it over.

"And there it is! 1-C is the first class eliminated from this event! Now it's just 1-A vs 1-B" Mia successfully lands back on the ground with the help of Nokuna and Oshira. Mia turns to see 1-B almost knocking their pole over but they are struggling as 1-B's pole hasn't even been touched.

"ONWARDS 1-A!!" the offense group for 1-A cheers as they rush ahead towards 1-B. Mia does the same routine of jumping into the air and preparing to kick the pole but gets blocked by one of Daiki's blasters.

"Hey Daiki, i'm back for round two" Daiki grins as Mia lands back on the ground and bolts behind the pole and jumps but getting blocked again by Daiki. Mia lands back on the ground and pauses trying to figure out what to do. 

"It's time to try out my new trick!" Mia clenches his fists as smoke pours from his eyes as he leaps from the ground destroying it instantly. He appears in front of Daiki who starts generating a blaster in front of him as Mia appears behind him and grabs the pole and increases gravity on himself pulling the pole down as a buzzer goes off. Mia pauses for a moment to process.

"D-did we just win?" Mia lets go of 1-B's pole as he turns to see a student with a broad back standing dominantly over 1-B's defense force and the pole on the ground.

"I knew Koji could do it!" Mia looks up at Daiki as he jumps from the top of the pole.

"Who's that?" Daiki smiles as he snaps his fingers.

"That Reru Koji… he has the ability to manipulate the world around him however he wants but depending on how much rest he got that previous night, the effects can be permanent or last only an hour… last night he got 10 hours of sleep" Mia turns to Daiki and smiles.

"You out-did class 1-A this time, but we will get you next time Daiki" Daiki smiles as he looks up at the crowd of people chanting.

"And there you have it! class 1-A has been eliminated… class 1-B is the winner of this event! All students please report back to the small stage" Mia sighs and rushes over to Yosu, Ryuuji, and Itsumi.

"Wow Mia, you were really good out there, it was only because of you we beat 1-C" Mia lightly chuckled

"Yeah, guess you could say that" the group of 4 chuckled as they stopped in front of the stage. The Principal walked up to continue to the next event.

"Now that the crowd has been given a sample taste of these new Agents' abilities, why don't you see them in combat?" The crowd goes crazy as the camera's for the TV's zoom in on the principal.

"Our next event is the sports festival's main event… 1 V 1 student matches… now, this year will be different as 1-C was eliminated, they won't be participating in the event… 1-A was eliminated 2nd… if a student beats a 1-A student, they get 2,500 points… and 3,000 for 1-B students, that number will only increase as the rounds go on… whoever has the most points by the end of the event will be the winner" Mia smiles and looks at Daiki who returns the looks. Mia points up to Daiki and takes a deep breath.

"I'll be seeing you in the finals, Daiki!" Daiki smiles and nods.

"I'll return your challenge you, cat" they both stand there smiling before fist bumping each other and getting dismissed to their respective locker rooms.
