Sekiryuutei of MHA

Chapter 16: Chapter 16



'No matter how I look at it....this bastard isn't fucking dead!'

That's what Katsuki thought of while blasting the Nomu with his explosions but that wasn't enough to render the beast unable to move as it went for a punch towards Katsuki who was fast enough to avoid it and sending another blast but the Nomu just brushed it off as if his attacks did nothing to it which pissed Bakugou off.

Suddenly the Nomu was frozen in place and Kirishima was seen running towards with great speed while using his quirk to slam the Nomu on its head repeatedly which caused it to scream and hitting the Ground hard.

"I didn't need your fucking help Weirdhair!" Katsuki yelled out towards Kirishima who only laughed.

"Yeah, well it looked like you were close to getting hit"

"He was gonna get hit if I didn't stop the Nomu's fist in time"

Katsuki growled at the one known as Shoto Todoroki who was busy observing the Nomu while Izuku walked towards Kirishima, "You alright with handling that kind of buff in speed?"

As Izuku questioned Kirishima, The red head who just laughed saying it was fun which got the boy to smile, 'Such an innocent aura' Izuku thought while clenching his fist.

'It was last second but I'm glad it worked, but I'm cutting it close' he thout as he saw but the Nomu was getting up but it got hit by a block of ice that pushed it back far enough for the four to get a breather.

"This thing is really taking all of our attacks like it's nothing" Shoto said while lowering down his right hand while walking beside Izuku who nodded his head.

"You're right and no matter what we do it keeps on getting up or healing itself, we don't even know it's Damn limit"

Then they heard the sound of the ice breaking caused the four to see the Nomu out of its ice prison with Katsuki blasted forwards and slamming a concentrated fist towards its midsection that only pushed it back a little, he was about to send another punch but the Nomu pushed by the sudden action of Izuku who slammed the Nomu down on the ground and relentlessly connected his fist to the Nomu's head, causing it to scream as Izuku's breath hitched.

Izuku felt his arms getting numb as he yells,"I CAN NO LONGER BEAR THIS TARNISH! SO VANQUISH THIS CURSED WRETCH POSTHASTE!"

He screamed with Katsuki simply smirked and shouted out, "What do you think I've been doing! I'll show that freak the power of the future No 1 hero!"

Saying this as he blasted towards the Nomu who saw the boy coming near it but Izuku then slammed his fist to where the Brain was and jumped high enough just in time to avoid getting hit by multiple blast of explosive hits from Bakugo who viciously punched the Nomu with a powerful punch to its face that pushed it towards the ground--resulting to form a large spider like crack to the floor.

Bakugo then landed near the three while laughing, "And that's how it's done!"

He said with Shoto staring at him with a blank look, Kirishima looking at him while sweat dropping while Izuku was busy calming down his beating heart, 'Damn it, not again'

But something happened that got them to look at the place where the Nomu was...and they heard laughter and then a large figure was Infront of Bakugo, who couldn't react fast and got punched in the face which made him get pushed back but Kirishima caught him in time but he also got pushed back as the only two people who were there facing the Nomu were Shoto and Izuku.

The Nomu then got closer to them which resulted an attack of ice courtesy of Shoto.

The Nomu then forced itself out of the ice only to get another blast of crimson energy, pushing it back even more with Izuku taking a knee as he breathed heavily.

"Don't tell me you're pig of energy already?" Shoto questioned with Izuku chuckling.

"I do but take a moment's respite, not yet hath the battle fled from mine grasp."

Izuku said just in time for the sound of the Nomu got even louder which made the two boys to widen their eyes as the Nomu was seen running towards them with Shoto narrowing his eyes since it seems that he's the only one who wasn't out of commission yet with that, he sent an ice to the floor on the Nomu's path causing it to slip on the ice making the monster to be dragged and headed towards them with Shoto creating an ice platform to move him along with Izuku to avoid the incoming Nomu that almost grabbed them but that wasn't the case.

Or so Shoto thought as Izuku was suddenly grabbed by a large black skin hand as he grunted in pain but his eyes widen as he forced the Nomu's hand to open just in them for his wings go sprout out and moved just in time as the Nomu was attacked and pushed away from an ice attack but it didn't look powerful enough to give them a distance away from the Nomu but the Nomu was then being delivered by an explosive punch and a heavy impact from two figures which were Kirishima and Bakugo who were back in action.

With the latter clenching his fist in anger, "I'm gonna make sure your sorry ugly ass face gets even more damaged!"

He yelled out.

"Woah not very hero like my man"

Kirishima said.

The Nomu just screamed out as it got ready to run towards them while being on all fours.

Izuku, who was seen floating at ground level, his eyes becoming hazy as he saw tunnel vision with his line of sight being the Nomu.

'Ddraig, let's end this, I'm content with fighting this creature'

Izuku thought as he raised his left arm and felt his emotion taken over.

'Mine ally, the hour hath cometh to cease this strife 'gainst yon beast, once and for eternity!'

-------------------------------------------------------------

Both Kirishima and Bakugo were delaying the Nomu's attack as much as they can but the more they tried the more the Nomu was trying with them and it got worse as if the creature was reading their moves and avoiding their attacks and sent an attack to the two boys midsection that caused them to spit out their saliva and being pushed back far enough but the Nomu wasn't done as it sent a kick towards them which Bakugo avoided the attack meanwhile Kirishima blocked while activating his quirk towards his arms and being pushed back.

The Nomu was then hit by an ice attack but it wasn't fazed from the sudden attack as it.... laughed like it found something funny.

Shoto gasped as he saw the Nomu slammed Kirishima fast enough for the boy to get pushed back even harder than before and went after Bakugo who sent a powerful explosion as best as he muster....but the attack didn't even even phase the monster as this made Bakugo widen his eyes in fear as his arm got broken even more from the Nomu snapping it like a twig making him scream and then being slammed down hard to the ground while spitting out blood as he layed on the ground.

The Nomu slowly turned to face him, and Todoroki felt bile start to rise up his throat. There was more muscle then skin covering the Nomu's body, bone being visible in places. Its right arm was missing, its left barely connected by bone and thin strands of muscle. And it's head... its entire bottom jaw and part of its throat were just gone, part of its skull caved in where its right eye should have been. By all accounts, the thing looked like a moving corpse.

But Todoroki's horror only mounted as sh watched the red muscle moving, bulging and oozing back over where it was missing, new blackened skin forming by the second.

Todoroki gawked at the monster before him for one second too long. Nomu lunged forward, its remaining arm outstretched. Todoroki flinched back, throwing his right arm up. Once again, Nomu was encased head to toe in an icy prison, stopped dead in its tracks. Without waiting, Todoroki sent out another wave of ice, encasing the ice block within another one. He repeated this several times, layering ice upon ice until Nomu's body was nothing more than a blurry outline within.

Todoroki sucked in a few deep breaths, trying to slow her pounding heart. He steadied himself, looking over Nomu's new prison. He allowed himself a small sigh as was coming towards Kirishima's aid as he grabbed him and placed him where Izuku was, with boy simply floating in air but his eyes looked distant causing Shoto to wonder just was he.

While Kirishima was more or less ok but still he was in pain but trying to toughing it out and then their was Bakugo who was far from the area.

He knows he had to go and help him incase more villains were still around the area but his mind was telling him that if he does do that, he might regret it, so right now sh needs to find a way to get his two classmates and this mysterious individual out of here cause if he didn't, they might not survive from-

...crrrrkkk...

A spike of ice completely unrelated to his Quirk shot down Todoroki's spine, the sudden sound stopping him dead in his tracks. Eyes bulging in disbelief, he rounded on where Nomu stood trapped.

A crack was slowly climbing its way across the ice block, right over where Nomu's outstretched arm was.

Damn it.

Todoroki sent out more ice, adding another layer atop what he'd already done. Within seconds, the crack worked its way to the new surface, spreading once again. Todoroki responded by pouring on more ice.

This shouldn't be happening. Todoroki thought to himself, gritting his teeth as he felt his right arm slowly going numb. He knew how strong his ice was. Nothing can get through it. The only thing that might have a chance was All Might himself.

... or something strong enough to kill this Monster.

Todoroki didn't bother acknowledging that thought. He just poured on more ice. As much as he could make,as fast as he could make it so that not only he can survive but those near him as well.

While he was doing this he didn't know that the Izuku's unfocused eyes had glint of light.

Todoroki had never created this much ice before. Even in all the... practice he had done, he'd only every focused on how to use his ice. How fast he could make it, how he could shape it, how quickly he could change what direction he was sending it; all skills pounded into his head as the most important thing. He'd never just... cut loose, pushing himself to create a single piece of ice with no limit to its size.

In any other circumstances, he'd have been impressed with himself. And a small part of him was.

However, that part was completely drowned out by the rest of his screaming in raging disbelief that the ice was still cracking, despite being nearly twenty feet thick.

Todoroki sucked in a harsh breath, his breath coming out in a cloud of steam. He'd completely lost feeling in his right arm, his right leg not too far behind as the cold spread across his chest. His whole body was shivering as his knees beginning to shake from the strain.

He ignored the warmth he could feel flickering in his chest, aching to rush through his left side and remove the cold. He wouldn't give in. He didn't need that warmth. He didn't need-

A sharp yell tore itself from his lips as heright leg finally gave out. He tried to catch himself as he fell, but the moment his right arm hit the ground, pain erupted in the limb, paradoxically freezing and burning at the same time. The ice on her right side fell away, revealing too-pale flesh that was starting to turn purple in places.

Todoroki curled up around his injured arm, gritting his teeth against the pain. He squinted up at the iceberg he'd created, Nomu nothing more than a faint outline buried in the center of it. It was almost thirty feet across, nearly forty feet high of layer after layer of ice encased over itself. At how dense he'd made it, it would be like being encased inside a mass of solid steel.

And it was still cracking.

"No..." Todoroki tried to push himself up, refusing to believe what he was seeing. No one... nothing could be that strong. Yet, as the seconds ticked by, the cracks grew wider and wider. And with his arm and leg in the shape they were, all Todoroki could do was lie there and wait for the inevitable.

There was a loud crack like a gunshot. Then another. And another. Soon the whole structure was covered in jagged lines of broken ice, shaking and shuddering as the being inside strained against its bonds.

When Nomu got free, it didn't just escape the ice block; it shattered it. Chunks of ice several feet across were sent flying into the air, crashing into the surrounding landscape with enough force to dig trails through the rock and dirt. Todoroki shielded his eyes against the explosion of air that followed the ice block's destruction his ears ringing as a bone-chilling roar filled the air.

There Nomu stood in the middle of an icy crater, completely healed and looking one the worse for wear. Its flesh had healed, its eye regrown, and both blank, beady orbs were staring right at Todoroki. The beast sucked in a deep breath, a roar building in the back of its throat as it prepared to charge forward.

Todoroki swallowed hard, mind racing as he tried to think of what she could do to-

His thoughts came to an end as Shoto saw the side of the Nomu's head caved in and was blasted away from a figure that held power as the force pushed the Nomu away.

Todoroki's eyes widened, trying to process what he was seeing as Nomu bent to the side, its head injured. It looked up at the sky, screeching in rage. A shadow fell over it and Todoroki, making the teen look up as well. His mouth fell open in shock.

Izuku was the one that dealt with the sudden attack, moving as if he wasn't injured as he hovered in the air above them, as he looked towards the Nomu, his eyes staring at the monster with no hint of mercy.

As Izuku landed close to the Nomu it reacted as it went to punch Izuku...only for the boy to avoid it in time and clenched his fist.

"Boost"

[BOOST]

The sound that came from gauntlet along with his fist connected the midsection of the Nomu and the beast itself felt an excruciating pain and was pushed back and hitting the ground hard.

But the Nomu went after him which resulted in the same way as if it was pushed bsck only this time it was got a fist connected to its face pushing it back and flying through the air and then got kicked by Izuku who used his speed to get near the beast and send a devastating kick to its side, causing the monster to hit a wall. his arms stretched high over his head.

Izuku spared Todoroki a quick glance and then towards Kirishima, with the latter getting up but barely.

"Go to a safe place"

That's all Izuku said to the duo with Shoto wanting to retort but when Izuku have him a glare he went silent as Izuku blitz towards the Nomu.

'This is it Ddraig'
