Interlude[]

RUKASU: Class 3-E, the Assassination Classroom.

ARCTAS: Class 1-A, the Hero Academia!

RUKASU: Born to save. Trained to kill. Teenage teams of saviours trained under their smiling mentors that came together as more than classmates to save the world... and not in just their main timelines.

ARCTAS: That's right, ladies and gents! We''l be compositing BOTH sides to give us a beautiful battle of wits, powers, strategies and bullshit, from Fortnite to Koro Q to Jump Force to J Stars! He's Rukasu and I'm Arctas!

RUKASU: And it's time for us to finish this war, reach the moon, and see which teen team of anime heroes will see Beyond the End... in a Death Battle.

Class 3-E Lock On for DEATH BATTLE![]

RUKASU: The prestigious education establishment, Kunugigaoka Junior High, was founded upon the principle that every student within it would graduate with the best possible chances to become famous figure-heads in history. It was a school designed from the ground up to train its students to be the best of the best; the elite that would control the world.

ARCTAS: This school was conformed to a class system, founded by the principal, Gakuho Asano, that served towards this idea, with the whole thing being made up of five individual classes that ranked from highest to lowest. Class A was the highest rank, headed by the Virtuosos, who were in turn headed by the school principal's own son. Classes B, C, and D were more of the standard education environment, but they were still strict on grades and ensuring that no one fell behind.

RUKASU: However, even the best of training can't always save those who simply weren't prepared for the level that the school expected of them. These individuals, few and far between, were designated as failures, becoming seen as weights in the main campus who held the "real" students down. These failed students would be signed off to take on their education separate from the other four classes.

ARCTAS: Up the mountain behind the prestigious school, taking the path towards its peak, you will find a rundown and frankly decrepit old school building perched within a field near the top. This building actually used to be the ORIGINAL Kunugigaoka Junior High, before it changed its sights to becoming the high-class prep school it became known as. Now, though, it serves as a backwater location for the fifth class. The failures.

RUKASU: This class became the source of jokes, ridicule, and perceived belief by the main campus. It was believed that being sent to this class was "the end of the line". This phrase was what would give the classroom its infamous title; "the End Class", Class 3-E.

BACKGROUND

• Also known as the Assassination Classroom
• School: Kunugigaoka Junior High School
• Number of teachers: 3
• Number of students: 28
• Lowest class behind four other classes
• "E Class" also stands for "End Class"
• Seen as failures, are anything but
• Class Motto: "Education and assassination in one!"

[NOTE: This composite rundown will cover every piece of media that any of these characters have made even a cameo appearance in. This list includes; Assassination Classroom (both manga and anime), Koro-Sensei Quest! (both manga and anime), J Stars Victory VS, and God Eater. Spoilers for ALL of the listed media will be involved, so be advised on that fact]

ARCTAS: For a good few years during Principal Asano's tenure as the chairman of the school, that's the way it stayed. The End Class were designed to be motivators for the rest of the classes, and they served their purpose really well in that department. The members of Class E, as the principal intended, believed they had lost their chance at successful lives, and were therefore left feeling hollow, unwilling to try and climb their way back up from the bottom.

RUKASU: That was until a certain event occurred that would alter the lives of the final class of students to step foot into the Class E building. One fateful March, the world suddenly became the witness of the natural disaster of the century, as the Moon suddenly exploded, vaporising 70% of its mass and leaving it shaped in a permanent crescent. The news stations were having a field day, there was global panic, and scientists were left stunned that something like this could have happened.

ARCTAS: But who cares about the Moon? Not Class E, because they just got a new teacher! And this one seems to be a tad different compared to their previous ones!

RUKASU: This teacher was more than a tad different; he stood at a height of three metres, bore a permanent smile on his face, and was dressed in a robe so teacher-like that you'd be forgiven if you thought he had come from a specialised prep school. Oh, and he was an octopus. A yellow octopus. A yellow octopus who could move at barely perceivable speeds. He also claimed to be the one responsible for the Moon's new shape.

ARCTAS: This, naturally, caused alarm amongst Class E. This... creature showed up at their doorstep and told them he had blown up the Moon, and that he would do the same to Terra Firma in exactly one year from that day. However, he offered the students a way to stop him.

RUKASU: Kill him. They had to kill him before the year was done. Not exactly your first idea of an extracurricular course.

ARCTAS: Despite that, though, Class E agreed to the task. Why? Well, they had no perceivable future, that's why! If they took this guy out, they'd be global heroes, securing their future regardless of grades! It helped that the government agent who escorted the creature also told them that the bounty for a successful kill was ten billion yen.

RUKASU: With a bounty like that hanging over their heads, it was only natural that the students of the End Class stepped up...

ARCTAS: To become assassins!

RUKASU: Together, the class was made up of twenty-eight individuals at the very start, but their numbers expanded as their year continued on, reaching a total of thirty-one separate minds working towards ending this global threat. The class did do one kind thing to start, however. They gave the creature his infamous name; Koro-Sensei, the teacher of the Assassination Classroom.

PROFILES - TEACHERS

• Koro-Sensei
  • Name means "unkillable teacher"
  • Code-name: The Octopus of the Idiotic Perverted Chicken
  • Main teacher of Class 3-E
  • Birthday: 24th March (Aries)
  • Height: 9ft 10"
  • Weight: "Lighter than he looks" (300kg)

  • Stated to move at Mach 20 when moving at max speed
  • Formerly the deadliest assassin in the world

  • Government agent for the Ministry of Defence
  • Code-name: Da Densest
  • Physical education teacher
  • Birthday: August 15th (Leo)
  • Height: 5ft 11"
  • Weight: 85kg
  • Trained by the Japanese Air Force, ranked at Warrant Officer
  • Built like a full brick house
  • Seduction-proof
  • During classes, he only ever eats cup noodles or hamburgers

• Irina Jelavic
  • Professional assassin protege of Lovro Brovski
  • Code-name: Bitch-Sensei
  • Foreign language teacher
  • Birthday: October 10th (Libra)
  • Height: 5ft 7"
  • Weight: 50kg
  • Born of Serbian descent
  • Master actress
  • Capable of speaking ten different languages
  • Identifies as a Christian (excuse you?)

ARCTAS: Koro-Sensei is the main guy behind Class E's education, and he was the one who took a chunk out of the Moon, so it would be really concerning if he WASN'T the main powerhouse of the class! His body, formed from anti-matter itself, is completely immune to any blade or bullet, and he's even highly resistant to blunt force like punches and general blows.

RUKASU: Koro-Sensei's main source of power, however, lies in his incredible speed. He is physically capable of easily moving faster than sound, and moves so fast that he can create several high-speed clones of himself at once.

ARCTAS: Now, the series constantly tells us that Koro-Sensei's maximum acceleration speed is Mach 20, also known as twenty times faster than sound. This, however, is a major understatement!

RUKASU: No matter how many times you hear that Koro-Sensei's max speed is Mach 20, do not take it as a solid fact. The simple fact of the matter is that he is MUCH faster than that relatively small number. The label of Mach 20 in-universe was likely used to help ground the octopus's ridiculous speed and power to a level that the class, and the world at large by extension, could easily understand.

ARCTAS: It's not too much to assume that Koro-Sensei himself didn't know his max speed at the time either, so he just went with the Mach 20 idea for the fun of it! If it motivated his students into trying to kill him despite that insane speed, so be it!

RUKASU: However, even as a super-being, teaching a class alone can be difficult. That's where the two other members of Class E's faculty step in. The government agent mentioned earlier, Tadaomi Karasuma, brought his expert levels of combat training and experiences to the field, becoming the class's main PE teacher... after Koro-Sensei tried and failed to teach the subject himself.

ARCTAS: Karasuma is just built on a completely different level compared to the students. I mean, look at that body! The guy has CLEARLY been working out for years!

RUKASU: You're not the only one looking there, Arc. The third member of the faculty, Irina Jelavic, would be inclined to agree.

ARCTAS: Oh yeah, the bitch! Uh... no joke, her nickname given by the class is "Bitch-Sensei". Just one conversation with her true personality should tell you why. However, she's more than a pretty face; she's a professional assassin, hired by Karasuma and the Ministry of Defence to help out with Koro-Sensei's assassination! Her kill count is in the hundreds, if not the thousands, and she's never failed a kill to this day!

RUKASU: Making her, despite her personality, a vital asset to Class E in every way. Together, these three teachers came together to train these failed students in the art of assassination. It would be a daunting task, especially considering that there were twenty-eight minds to polish and repair.

ARCTAS: Koro-Sensei, though, took that as a challenge! To him, it was his teaching mission to ensure that every last student under his care should graduate with flying colours!

RUKASU: Each student brought their own strengths and weaknesses to the table in the mission to end Koro-Sensei's life, resulting in a team of operating assassins that were unrivalled, even by the government themselves.

ARCTAS: Some are good at brute force, like Ryoma Terasaka, code-name Pseudo-Takaoka, and his gang. Some are better at range, like the sniper duo of Ryunosuke Chiba and Rinka Hayami, code-names Adult Game Protagonist and Tsundere Sniper. And some are good at specialised training in combat, like the ever-cocky Karma Akabane, code-name Semi-Senioritis!

RUKASU: Every student brought their own special talents to the table to get the job done. Yuma Isogai, code-name President Poverty, is a qualified spokesperson and leader, earning him the respect of everyone in the class. Toka Yada, code-name Ponytail and Chest, specialises in negotiation over combat, but is well-trained should a situation resort to that outcome.

ARCTAS: Yuzuki Fuwa, code-name This Manga is Amazing!, is a manga extraordinaire, possessing knowledge of characters and tactics from across the history of Shonen Jump! Tomohito Sugino, code-name Baseball Freak, has a killer arm, holding enough power in that right limb to throw a fastball so quick that no human eye can see it!

RUKASU: Some excel at physical work, like Masayoshi Kimura, code-name Justice, who outstrips his classmates by a country mile in running speed. Some surpass expectations in socialisation, such as Hiroto Maehara, code-name Womanizing Bastard. Yes, that's his actual code-name.

ARCTAS: Why we're bringing all these guys up is simple; every talent we mentioned they have was vital to Class E's efforts against Koro-Sensei! No matter how mundane, no matter how questionable... every quality one student possessed was vital to saving the world! This is all without mentioning those in the class who came in with assassination built-in, like demolition expert Kotaro Takebayashi, code-name Glasses, chemist extraordinaire Manami Okuda, code-name Poison Specs, talented actress Kaede Kayano, code-name Forever Flat-

RUKASU: Poor girl.

ARCTAS: -and the class's most pure-blooded assassin, Nagisa Shiota! Code-named Gender, because... well, why d'you think?

RUKASU: Together, Class E proved a formidable team of aspiring assassins on their own. However, pure talent and pre-tuned ability can only take you so far. Koro-Sensei and Karasuma knew that, and instantly finetuned their students with the highest quality arsenal they could afford.

ARCTAS: You mean what Karasuma could afford.

RUKASU: Good point. What Karasuma could afford, and what Koro-Sensei could teach... mentally, not physically.

RUKASU: Starting with the first set of weaponry they received, the Anti-Sensei knife and pistol, the latter being a modified M1911, may seem harmless, and that's because they are... to humans, at least. Against Koro-Sensei, however, the blade or the BB pellet will cut through his antimatter body like a silver knife against soft butter. It should be noted that these weapons only do temporary damage, however, as Koro-Sensei can easily regenerate if given an opening.

ARCTAS: Then Karasuma gave the class assault rifles! Okay, that's not completely true, but the visual is there! These specially designed M4 Carbines fire Anti-Sensei rounds at up to 970 pellets per minute, with enough power to reach a distance of over 900 metres! Imagine what an Anti-Sensei minigun would look like…

RUKASU: The class of assassins did get creative with the BB pellets, though. Terasaka, for example, innovated them into creating an Anti-Sensei grenade, which can be remote-activated from a distance, essentially creating a ranged trap that can be set off at any time.

ARCTAS: Karasuma also stepped in to give the kids first-hand training in Marine combat, training them in hand-to-hand combat to the level of being on par with the world's strongest soldiers! He also taught them how to actually use those knives he gave them, just so they don't accidentally cut themselves.

RUKASU: However, guns and knives were not the only pieces of kit that Class E have had access to during their year.

ARCTAS: Explosives, smoke bombs, bamboo staffs with the green knives strapped on the end for range, and specialised tasers called Stun Guns that can shock a full-grown man into a deep sleep in less than two seconds! Weaponry isn't all they've got, though. Check out these sweet uniforms that were given to the class as standard issue!

RUKASU: They might look like they're only there to make the class look more professional, but trust us, these uniforms are anything but decoration. They're woven from a reinforced nanofibre kevlar that can protect them against almost any blunt-force attack, as well as making them immune to blades, high temperature, and

so got special dye built-in that the students can activate to blend in with any possible surroundings! Blue, green, black, even camouflage! With all these weapons and protective methods, you'd be forgiven if you were shocked to find out that it still took them a long time to even get close to killing Koro-Sensei!

RUKASU: That would be because of the fact that Koro-Sensei himself is a walking one-man army all on his own.

• Anti-matter tentacles
  • Augments Koro-Sensei's body to be able to move and attack at high speeds
  • Can be formed, bent, manipulated or utilised in anyway Koro-Sensei wishes
  • Extremely precise in movement, allowing Koro-Sensei to even perform highly complex surgeries

• Assassin skills and techniques
  • See student list above, but increase by about ten times in efficiency

• Genius intellect and strategy
• Flight
• Superhuman speed
• Regeneration
• Fourth wall awareness
• Missiles
• Sewing kit
• Grooming kit

  • Can molt his skin, which can protect allies from major blows

• Supersonic voice
• Camouflage

  • Creating enough can trap would-be attackers

• Electricity

  • Can digest metals and even Anti-Sensei materials with ease

• Master surgeon
• Anti-matter discharges
  • Can fire massive beams of energy from his tentacle tips if he cups them together

• Transformations
  • Liquid Form
    • Body becomes liquified and completely malleable
    • Allows for even higher speeds and smaller body, making him almost impossible to hit
  • Absolute Defence Form
    • Causes an explosion and encases himself inside of an impenetrable crystal ball
    • Renders him immobile for one whole day, but he is completely invincible during that time

ARCTAS: Those tentacles aren't there to look gross. They can move just as fast as Koro-Sensei can! That means he can rip you apart at high speeds while also having a light snack in the meantime! It helps that the guy is so well-trained in assassination that he understands the entire human body and where to strike in order to kill his target in one blow!

RUKASU: Aside from his killing intellect, Koro-Sensei is bordering on being called the smartest being on the planet. He's successfully read, took in, and understood every textbook in Japan that he could find on teaching and education within a day, rewired an AI killing machine to the point that it gained its own sentience…

ARCTAS: Introducing us to our best robo-girl, Ritsu! Code-name Box O' Moe, who can access any required info the class needs at any given time!

RUKASU: ...and has shown on multiple occasions that he's quick to understand and solve a tricky situation at every turn, such as when the principal gave him a test that could have killed the teacher if he didn't play his cards right, only for Koro-Sensei to turn the tables around and win in an instant.

ARCTAS: Other pieces of kit Koro-Sensei has picked up are a sewing kit, a grooming kit, and a standard issue Japanese warhead that he sometimes sends back to the government with little care packages. Y'know, fun things a teacher always has!

RUKASU: Koro-Sensei also possesses a few transformations, as any good overpowered Shonen character should. His first is his Liquid Form, a form that changes his body into a pure liquid, allowing him to shrink himself down and fit through almost any gap or crevice, while also increasing his speed even further.

ARCTAS: His second transformation is his ultimate trump card; the Absolute Defence Form! With a large explosion and some condensed energy, Koro-Sensei seals his body inside of a crystal ball, becoming completely invincible for twenty-four hours! The only downside is that he can't move in this form, which could be capitalised on by any clever opponent who manages to back him into that corner.

RUKASU: With all these weapons and all of Koro-Sensei's... everything, Class E proved to be one of the most formidable forces in the world. They've taken on overwhelming odds time and time again, facing down enemies such as Takaoka, the God of Death, and Shiro.

ARCTAS: They've even gone toe-to-toe with kids like them! Itona, code-name Picture Book Graduate, was originally just a lab rat used by Shiro as a way to get to Koro-Sensei and kill him. To do this, the bastard implanted tentacles like Koro-Sensei's into the kid's head, causing him intense pain and making him lash out in anger! Man, the AssClass villains are fucking psychopaths!

RUKASU: Luckily for Itona, Class E saw past his pained fury, and decided to help him by taking away his tentacles and offering him the chance to kill Koro-Sensei their way, to which the boy accepted. However, this would not be the last time that Class E had to deal with a child with tentacles, and we can guarantee that no one could have guessed who would bear the pain of wielding them.

ARCTAS: Kayano proved to be far more than met the eye when she revealed her OWN set of anti-matter tentacles, on par with Itona and Koro-Sensei's, and tried to kill Koro-Sensei by force, losing her sanity and life the longer it took! Luckily, her actions before her reveal had left an imprint on one soul in particular, meaning while everyone else tried to take Kayano down with force, Nagisa stepped forward and used a... different method to defuse the situation.

RUKASU: He kissed her. I'll be the blunt one for once, he kissed her and knocked her out in an instant.

ARCTAS: ...well, goddamn. With all this in mind, Class E definitely had what it took to take down Koro-Sensei if they played their cards right. Hell, with their training and teamwork, they could have taken on the government and WON!

RUKASU: However, we can guarantee that if they had access to THESE weapons and abilities... well, the whole WORLD may as well have bent the knee.

ARCTAS: This is a composite fight for a reason, ladies and gents! Lets dive right into the insanity!

RUKASU: Let's start small, shall we? First up, Class E all gets access to standard issue adventure swords in Koro-Sensei Quest, a spin-off gag manga of the main series that takes place in an alternate RPG-styled timeline. These swords seemingly never break and can cut through just about anything. Pretty easy to start with, I'd say, and fairly understanda-

ARCTAS: GOD EATER!

RUKASU: CHRIST- ...Arctas, what do you mean by-

ARCTAS: Welcome to the world of God Eater! In this world, humanity is under constant threat from creatures lovingly called "Aragami"! These creatures seem to have made it their devout mission to exterminate mankind, and so the God Eaters arose to combat them!

RUKASU: To fight back against these creatures, mankind invented the God Arcs, mechanical weapons forged from the corpses and spirits of slain Aragami. As edgy as that sounds, the weapons do serve their purpose, being able to cut through Aragami, and just about anything else, with relative ease.

ARCTAS: There are so many styles of God Arcs that I don't know where to start! First, we've got the Blades. A Short Blade allows for rapid strikes and attacks, though it is relatively weak. A Long Blade is somewhere in the middle, standard damage and standard speed. Then there's the Buster Blade, a MAMMOTH of a weapon that strikes hard and kills fast, but does take a long time to swing and reduces mobility.

RUKASU: Other styles of God Arc include the Charge Spear, a wide-ranged weapon that can be charged with energy to deliver blows that deal huge damage. Another is the Boost Hammer, a massive mallet that strikes with power thanks to a built-in thruster on the back. Finally, we have the Variant Scythe, an extendable weapon that strikes quickly and hits opponents multiple times per swing.

ARCTAS: Don't think that's it, though! All God Arcs have the ability to turn into GUNS! FUCKING GUNS, I TELL YOU! Assault Gun, Sniper Gun, Blast Gun, Shotgun... SO many guns!

RUKASU: Careful, Arc. Your Boomstick is showing.

ARCTAS: Sorry, sorry... anyways, you may be wondering why we're explaining all this. Well, the answer is that our dear main boy and girl assassins, Nagisa and Kayano, have costumes in the game that your avatar can wear and use on the battlefield! Full composite means full composite, which means that Nagisa and Kayano get access to ALL of these things... at the price of having a giant black rectangle physically and spiritually infused onto their wrist, but who cares when you have a GIANT MALLET!

RUKASU: The God Arcs are certainly impressive, but Nagisa and Kayano are only two students of a wider class. Lets head back to Koro Q and further examine it to see what the rest of Class E can do.

ARCTAS: As it turns out? A whole freakin' lot!

RUKASU: As is standard for a Dragon Quest parody, Class E become capable of creating and utilising magical abilities that they can use in battle. The assassins-turned-heroes can use fire, ice, lightning, earth, other people's mental states, and even their own souls, while Irina has magic that can hypnotise males into obeying her every command.

ARCTAS: I'm... sorry, what was that about souls?

RUKASU: They can protect their souls against any attempts to control or damage them.

ARCTAS: ...Jesus Christ.

RUKASU: Class E can also utilise their magic to activate instant teleportation-

ARCTAS: HUH?!

RUKASU: It's true. It's strongly implied that Class E can teleport right here.

ARCTAS: We are only on the SECOND ABILITY, and teleportation was decided to be the SECOND thing we brought up?! What else can they do?!

RUKASU: Well... they can level up during a fight and become stronger in the fight itself, meaning that they can keep leveling up throughout any given battle and slowly overwhelm their opponent.

ARCTAS: I'm... is there anything I can even say about that, or do we have more to go over?

RUKASU: Specific students and Koro-Sensei have transformations that they can use at the peak of their power. Examples include-

ARCTAS: ...

RUKASU: ...y'know what, let’s keep that tucked away for a little while longer. We haven't even discussed the Bugs yet, and THOSE are what let them transform.

ARCTAS: The what now?

KORO Q BUGS

• Koro-Sensei: Speed
  • Basically just removes the whole "Mach 20 limiter", meaning his speed has no upper limit, meaning he's possibly immeasurable when going all out
• Karma Akabane: Karma (wha...?)
  • When he looks down on people, his luck stat decreases, causing side-effects such as washtubs falling on his head (...OH, I GET IT-!)
• Yuma Isogai: Poverty
  • The back half of any armour he wears is removed, rendering them useless to all other users while also leaving Isogai's back half exposed
• Taiga Okajima: Unequip
  • He, along with anyone he has made contact with, randomly has their outfit fly off at any given time
• Manami Okuda: Potion
  • She can create elixirs and potions that, physically and/or conceptually, should not exist
• Yukiko Kanzaki: Overheal
  • Her healing magic is so effective that those she uses it on will deliberately harm themselves just to get another taste
• Hinano Kurahashi: Insect
  • Her magic attracts actual bugs and insects of all kinds towards her, which causes confusion for both her and her opponents
• Nagisa Shiota: Ȩ̸̪͔͛͊̅R̴̹͉͍͊̒R̸̹͂͜O̴̞͕̠͐R̷̯̂̐ (the fu-?!)
  • Ahem... it's not set. When he activates his bug through strong emotion, literally anything and everything can happen
• Tomohito Sugino: Delay
  • Any actions and attacks executed by him will take an undefined prolonged time to activate
• Ryuunosuke Chiba: Range
  • He can hit any target without fail if they're a good distance away, but can't make out anything if they're too close to him, making him lose focus
• Ryoma Terasaka: Liquid Magic
  • Does what it says on the tin; his magic comes out as liquid no matter what the spell
• Rio Nakamura: Status Switch
  • She can swap the status effects of one target to another, and she isn't just limited to magic status effects
• Rinka Hayami: Hit Rate
  • Any ranged attack she performs will always hit her opponent (and always in the crotch, for some reason) regardless of distance
• Sumire Hara: Strength
  • She gains immense strength, but her HP constantly depletes in return. To compensate, she eats food to replenish it, even during combat
• Yuzuki Fuwa: Item
  • She can obtain items that are completely impossible to obtain in the world, such as otherworldly manga...
• Hiroto Maehara: Cool Factor
  • His coolness stat increases exponentially, making him look and act cooler, but at the cost of lowered brainpower. This stat change can alter the world around him to match, including summoning a rainbow when he takes damage
• Koki Mimura: Graphics
  • He can censor graphic images. Yes, that's really all his bug does
• Taisei Yoshida: Bathroom Warrior
  • He can only fight with items related to the bathroom, such as toilet plungers
• Ritsu: Combination
  • She can combine spells to create new ones at the cost of a high amount of magic points, forcing her to consume items to replenish it
• Itona Horibe: Imitation
  • He can copy and utilise abilities and skills of any being in the world, with seemingly no downside to this power

RUKASU: The story justification for the students being sent to Class E in Koro Q is naturally different to the main series. In this story, they are heroes-in-training who possess Bugs in their forms that prevent them from leveling up like standard heroes. However, those in the manga who tell Class E that their bugs are useless... they're all fucking idiots.

ARCTAS: Aaaaand we're at the point where Ruka's swearing. Yep, we've gone off the deep end, but let's keep soldiering on. Koro-Sensei's Bug is his speed, which is pretty simple. All it pretty much means is that the whole "Mach 20" limit thing is just gone, and Koro-Sensei can go as fast as he damn well pleases, to the point that he can transform into light itself. That's pretty fitting, given that he's the final boss of this whole game world, known as the "Big Bad" or "Demon King", depending on if it's either manga or anime, so of course he doesn't have a limit on his main power.

RUKASU: This is all without mentioning that Koro-Sensei is also the physical container for an entire parallel universe. There exists a complete reality within his body that functions identically to an alternate universe, which Koro-Sensei can gain energy from and weaponize in battle.

ARCTAS: This isn't exclusive to Koro-Sensei either! ALL the Demon Kings in the world have this trait, and there are COUNTLESS numbers of those guys running around thanks to Shiro's machinations! ...uh, the Koro Q one, not the mainline one.

RUKASU: Let's go down the list you see above, reader. Karma's Bug is... well, Karma. Any time he looks down on anyone or acts overconfident, his Luck stat plummets drastically, causing unlucky things to occur to Karma, such as dropping washbins on his head, causing him to fall through trap doors, or to be launched into the horizon by a giant mallet that comes out of nowhere.

ARCTAS: Isogai's Bug is Poverty. He can only wear the front half of his outfit at all times, leaving his back side looking... well, exposed at all times. He just has to hope he doesn't come into contact with Okajima, whose Bug revolves around that he can cause all of your equipment, weapons and armour, to suddenly fly off of you!

RUKASU: Okuda's Bug allows her to create potions and elixirs that shouldn't exist, either physically or even conceptually, into reality. Kanzaki's Bug causes her healing magic to be so effective that people become addicted to it and start harming themselves so she heals them again. Kurahashi's Bug attracts insects and bugs of all kinds towards her when she uses magic.

ARCTAS: Speedrunning the rest of the simpler ones, Sugino's causes his attacks to come out way later than when he throws them, Chiba can only see things from really far away with the trade-off that he hits every ranged target every time, Nakamura can swap status effects (how is that even a Bug?), Hayami's lets her hit any target, but only those she deems as enemies and only in the crotch for some reason, and Hara has immeasurable strength but her health slowly depletes as a trade-off which causes her to have to eat during a battle. If she ever reaches max health, she can transform into an Amazon Form that can overwhelm ANY foe with her immense strength!

RUKASU: Fuwa can collect items that shouldn't exist in the world, including a copy of Assassination Classroom some-goddamn-how, Mimura can cause images to become unreadable, and Yoshida can only fight using bathroom tools like toilet plungers.

ARCTAS: Yeah, not all of these Bugs are winners.

RUKASU: Lets focus on the more complex characters now... not that the other characters aren't, it's just that Koro Q was VERY biased in favour of certain characters. Let’s start with Terasaka. His Bug is that his magic comes out as liquid every time he uses it. While many would believe to be a detriment, Terasaka honed this negative that he held and turned it into his greatest strength, grinding his level up to the max and transforming into... Guts from Berserk. Once again, gag series, please believe us on this.

ARCTAS: Next up is Maehara. This guy has a Bug that alters his Cool Factor. Whenever he takes damage, his Cool Stat increases exponentially, and the higher it goes, the more he can do. The highest Maehara can get is becoming capable of changing reality around him to make him look cooler, even to the point of forming a rainbow and summoning birds around him as he flew through the air after being headbutted by a bull. It's not that useful to Maehara, but its effects can be capitalised on by his classmates to gain an advantage!

RUKASU: Ritsu's Bug is called Combination. It allows her to combine different spells and use the resulting spell to attack her foes. The downside of this is that this action uses up a lot of her magic points, and she has to eat a lot to replenish it in the heat of the moment. Luckily, Ritsu doesn't rely on her Bug all that much, as the Ancient Stone Tablet she was scribed on... yes, she's a Tablet instead of an AI here, go with it... contains every spell ever created in the history of Koro Q's world, making her extremely versatile.

ARCTAS: Then Itona comes flying in with Imitation! He can copy and utilise any power he's seen across his life, including powers that humans normally shouldn't be able to use, like breathing hellfire! This Bug is extremely useful to Itona, as he can just look at a power of any kind and instantly mimic it to use for himself!

RUKASU: Alright... do you want to...?

ARCTAS: Oh hell no, I'm not touching him, YOU take him!

RUKASU: Coward.

ARCTAS: And damn proud of it.

RUKASU: That leaves the character whose Bug just breaks every law of physics and reality; Nagisa... god-damn... Shiota.

ARCTAS: You might be wondering; what insane power did they give the main protagonist? How strong is Nagisa thanks to it? Well, let's say it to you straight... NAGISA'S BUG ISN'T FUCKING SET!

RUKASU: Ahem... let’s cool down here... okay, go. Nagisa's Bug has no set power. It's completely random in its effect whenever he activates it during a moment of strong emotion, such as anger, determination, or fear. Whenever this Bug activates, all Hell breaks loose, because no one has a damn clue what will happen. This has resulted in many a funny gag involving this poor kid, including, but not limited to...

ARCTAS: Unlimited strength, unlimited durability, unlimited speed, increased burliness, becoming completely drunk (wait, what?), becoming so sexy that no being can resist him (e-excuse you?!), and transforming into a Super Saiyan... and a Super Saiyan 2!

RUKASU: Missed one.

ARCTAS: No, screw you, I definitely got it all!

RUKASU: Nope.

ARCTAS: ...oh, right, that. Dammit.

RUKASU: Nagisa's Bug is so powerful that it can bring everything and anything in reality under its control, to the point that he reset ALL of it by himself when Class E were in danger from falling castle debris. Let me repeat that; ALL OF REALITY. BY HIMSELF.

ARCTAS: By accident, by the way! You can also take that earlier point about Demon Kings having universes inside of them and apply it here! Nagisa reset not just HIS universe, but EVERY universe that was contained inside of a Demon King! Since there's countless Demon Kings running around, that means Nagisa reset a countless number of universes, likely up in the hundreds of thousands, if not the millions! And remember, that's just what we see Nagisa do in visuals! His Bug's very nature makes him capable of pretty much anything he can imagine, as long as the Bug co-operates! It's like Nagisa gains the power to save everyone when... when his friends are in danger.

RUKASU: And that's the hammer slamming on the nail. Nagisa, like everyone else in Class E, cares about his friends and wants to ensure they're all safe. Koro-Sensei never played favourites, even if the plot did; he didn't just teach them how to kill. He taught them what it means to enact that kill, and the life that will be lost upon completing it. In short... the God of Death taught these lost souls what Life truly meant.

ARCTAS: No matter who you ask in Class E, they will all say they were grateful to Koro-Sensei for coming into their lives. They were guided out of the shadows by the world's deadliest killer, and the killer was happy that he was able to make up for his life of bloodshed with one more chance.

RUKASU: The result of this life-altering bond between target and killers? Not just a classroom of friends... but a family bonded by the blade.

ARCTAS: And together, they used that blade to strike out at anyone who got in their way!

OTHER SOURCES

• Nagisa and Kayano make a costume appearance in God Eater 2, and therefore scale to anything the Avatar does and survives in the story

RUKASU: Together, Class 3-E have proved time and time again to be almost unstoppable when they lock onto their target. They've overcome overwhelming odds time and time again, all to prove that they deserved their chance at their own successful lives through their own ways.

ARCTAS: They stuck it to those stuck up pricks on the main campus by kicking their asses in the exams! Twice! Koro-Sensei himself even convinced Principal Asaon to re-evaluate his methods and relent his pressure on the End Class, essentially grabbing all of his students a passing grade and a guaranteed graduation!

RUKASU: As school-children, they were impressive. As assassins, they were just as formidable, as though the two lives they led were as easy to balance as if it were second-nature. They've faced countless would-be killers who have tried to take Koro-Sensei's bounty for themselves and fought them all off, including the country's best sniper, who chose to retire as a hitman after only one encounter with Koro-Sensei.

ARCTAS: Some of the assassins that came after them did make it more personal, though. Akira Takaoka, for example, tried to imprint his abusive training methods upon the class, only to get his ass handed to him by Nagisa in a duel that lasted only a few seconds! Then the bastard tried to get back at Nagisa for apparently... ruining his life?! By actually choosing to defend his friends and win the match with rules that YOU set?! Complete dickhead!

RUKASU: Class E would agree with you. However, Nagisa agreed to fight the man again... and he beat him again. Admittedly, the boy was beaten to near unconsciousness in the fight, but Nagisa was able to put Nagisa down through use of his own specialised technique; the Clap Stunner, a move that instantly broke through Takaoka's defence and knocked him out in one blow.

ARCTAS: Nagisa did that after the guy had already beaten him to a near pulp! Let us remind you that he's considered the PHYSICALLY WEAKEST member of the class, meaning that the rest of Class E should be just as tough if not tougher!

RUKASU: Karma proved that by besting Grip, a powerfully strong assassin who could crush human skulls in his hands. The redhead also took a few blows from the hitman, but proved to be superior when Grip attempted to use a dirty tactic, only to use a dirty tactic right back on him. This feels like a good time to mention that Class E are not against playing dirty when they have to.

ARCTAS: They may be trained assassins, but remember, they ARE still just kids, so of course they're gonna use child-like moves in a fight! However, we must state that despite the threat the class posed, they still paled in comparison to their super-being teacher.

RUKASU: Until Koro Q, that is.

ARCTAS: Koro-Sensei has proved he's capable of everything that Class E can do, and so much more! He can create up to 30 speed clones of himself at once, perform critical surgeries at high speeds and complete them to perfection in only a minute, create powerful tornadoes just by spinning on the spot, and fly fast enough to create a visible drawing of himself on the Earth using his speed contrails!

RUKASU: This is even before we factor in Koro-Sensei's major boost in stats; J Stars Victory VS. In this game, the beloved octopus sensei joins his fellow Shonen characters, both good and evil, in a no hold barred brawl where everything and anything goes. Within this game's canon, Koro-Sensei is considered so powerful that he legally cannot participate in the "Jump Tournament", an event that features many warriors doing battle to decide a victor. These teams include Luffy, Naruto, Ichigo, and...

ARCTAS: Son Goku himself!

RUKASU: Needless to say, this ordeal where Koro-Sensei is powerful enough to the point of being forced to take on a judging role in a tournament that includes the likes of Son Goku should say that he's considered a lot more powerful in this story than in mainline AssClass.

ARCTAS: By the way, in case you think this is just a world where only Koro-Sensei exists to be this powerful, you can find Nagisa, Karasuma and Irina in the Adventure Mode open world, meaning that they're still there to try and kill Koro-Sensei! The rest of Class E can scale up from there, meaning EVERYONE gets to scale to Goku! HA-HA!

RUKASU: However, no matter how powerful these assassins become, they will always remember one simple fact; they remember what it was like to feel powerless. They understand that their strength was found by Koro-Sensei, who strived to teach them to use that strength with humility and kindness, even if they were trained to take lives.

ARCTAS: So together, the End Class used their talents to fulfil their promise to their teacher, coming together at the end of the road to end his life once and for all. Nagisa stepped forward to commit the act, and with a final smile, gave his goodbye to the teacher who had finally chosen to see them all for who they really were.

RUKASU: Koro-Sensei would pass on with satisfaction in his pierced heart, knowing that Class E had indeed been guided out of their darkness, just as he had promised a certain soul so long ago. Class E would go on to lead their lives how they chose, pursuing their dream careers while using the lessons taught to them by their teacher every step they took.

ARCTAS: A certain pure-blooded assassin even chose to follow in his old teacher's footsteps, and became a teacher just like him, even taking charge of a class full of delinquents who showed signs that they, too, were trapped in a cycle of shadow. You couldn't get a more perfect career if you tried, Nagisa!

RUKASU: If what we see of their future is anything to go by, Class 3-E never lost their edge. They understand the meaning of life and death, and if someone would even dare to harm one of their own?

ARCTAS: Then they're in for what will surely be a killer lesson.

Class 1-A Go Beyond for DEATH BATTLE![]

ARCTAS: Ah, the glorious future! Shiny new technology, an era of peace for all humankind! It's all fun and games for the children, and the adults have no reason to be afraid for their futures... well, until a baby was born with glowing skin that was bright enough to blind anyone who looked at them for too long... wait, what?

RUKASU: It only takes one look at this bright future incarnate to realise that this world is not your typical depiction of the future; it became a superhuman society, where over eighty percent of the world came to possess some uncanny ability of some form. Cities swirled with chaos and confusion in the wake of these new powers beginning to appear across the globe, until a new profession emerged from the panic. The profession... of heroes.

ARCTAS: These heroes would help to restore order to society, before giving their aid towards building a new world order around these newly-dubbed 'Quirks'. These included help centres, training facilities, and, of course, schools for the children who needed assistance in focusing their powers!

RUKASU: Many an establishment was built up to aid this dream, including the likes of Shiketsu, Kekubutsu, and Seijin all becoming well-established names across Japan. However, one school stood tall and strong above the rest. A school, located in Mustufau, that many children could only dream of attending to live up to their idols in the hero scene; UA High School.

ARCTAS: This place was the cream of the crop if you wanted a school that could boost your chances of becoming a Pro Hero! Multiple established heroes had attended UA themselves during their childhoods, including Eraser Head, Present Mic, Midnight, Endeavour, and even the Number One Hero himself, All Might!

RUKASU: However, UA was much more complex than a simple training arena for hopeful heroes. The school was divided into four different departments, each focused on a critical area of heroics, such as support and management. For the sake of safety, only the top class was devoted purely to training up young heroes; Class 1-A.

BACKGROUND

• Also known as the Hero Academia
• School: UA High School
• Number of teachers: 3
• Number of students: 20
• Highest class above four others
• Placed on a pillar as the next generation of heroes
• Seen as prodigies and talents
• Class Motto: "Go Beyond! Plus Ultra!"

[DISCLAIMER: This composite rundown will cover every piece of media that any of these characters have made even a cameo appearance in. This list includes; My Hero Academia (both manga and anime), My Hero Academia: SMASH!, Jump Force, Fortnite, and Overwatch. Spoilers for ALL of the listed media will be involved, so be advised on that fact]

ARCTAS: This class was designed to be the highest calibre; those who worked hard enough to just earn the right to enter it's... frankly MASSIVE doors were pretty much set to become one of the country's finest heroes. The program for this class was off the charts in terms of what it offered; frequent Quirk training, combat training, frequent work experience... pretty much anything any aspiring hero needed!

RUKASU: For a good long time, this class was simply seen as the top rank of heroes-to-be in Japan, until one fateful year, when a certain class of twenty entered the high school. This class of hopeful heroes were... different to those of previous years.

ARCTAS: And we don't just mean in terms of powers or looks, even if some of them WOULD look out of place in reality. I mean, come on, have you SEEN that big guy with the webbed arms?! But no, we mean that this class was treated and SEEN as being different from the get-go.

RUKASU: It was as though fate itself had determined that this class would go on to not only simply become heroes... but to become the greatest heroes in the entire world. However, they would have a long way to go before they reached that stage.

ARCTAS: Luckily for them, they just so happened to have the CURRENT greatest hero in their class as an educator! Sure, he doesn't seem to be good at the "education" part, but come on, ya gotta love that big ol' smile!

RUKASU: This class was given special treatment from the start when the country's Number One Hero himself, All Might, signed on as their Foundational Hero Studies teacher. This legend, this Symbol of Peace, had agreed to educate a class of hopefuls alongside the main class teacher, for reasons unknown to most.

ARCTAS: Also known as "unknown to the characters, but not the audience". But we're not there yet! Let's meet our faculty educators!

  • Quirk: Voice

RUKASU: Class A were, naturally, extremely excited to have the Symbol of Peace as a teacher in their class. One look at his prolific career should be enough evidence for why they would be so over-the-moon.

ARCTAS: This guy's been going strong as a hero for over forty years, and in that time, he's saved countless lives, beaten all kinds of villains, and all while never shaking in his status as a symbol; no matter how hard he got hit, that shining smile stayed on his face!

RUKASU: It was All Might's sole desire to see the world at peace, with its citizens smiling and its heroes standing as pillars of hope for those less fortunate. He became the symbol the world needed, and the world began to rest easy knowing that All Might was here to help them.

ARCTAS: Every kid worth their fanboy streak knew about All Might, and all of them knew his most famous phrase; "Go Beyond, Plus Ultra!"

RUKASU: While All Might may be the Number One Hero, however, he is not the hero class's main educator. That title belongs to Shota Aizawa, hero name Eraser Head.

ARCTAS: Aizawa's less of a flashy public show-off and more of a blunt and down-to-earth kind of mentor, having high expectations for ANYONE who enters Class A and standing by those expectations regardless of excuse. Strict with his schedule and his rules, he has no problems with calling out anyone who steps out of line. He'll even FORCE them to stop if he has to, shutting off their Quirk with his own power, Erasure!

RUKASU: Aizawa took up the main homeroom teacher role only eight years before he met this new batch of kids, yet in that time, he expelled every class he had taught up to the present day. Yeah, we weren't joking when we said the guy was strict.

ARCTAS: Luckily, Aizawa does have a foil to his stern demeanour in his fellow educator, Hizashi Yamada, hero name Present Mic! This loud and proud radio host will always pick up the mood of any situation, no matter how depressing or sad it gets!

RUKASU: As a radio star, it would only make sense that Yamada's Quirk would match that; his Quirk, Voice, allows him to increase the level of volume on his... well, voice, to levels capable of shattering glass and causing sonic pulses. An eccentric personality and an excitable announcer for any event, if you share a room with Present Mic, you're sure to feel some form of levity... while also nursing your ears.

ARCTAS: This trio of teachers are definitely nothing to scoff at, and the country knew it. Hell, it was headline news when the announcement of All Might's employment at UA went public! Why had such a large-profile hero chosen to enter the education of young minds? Was this a publicity stunt? Was it even true?

RUKASU: The official reason given for this shocking news was that All Might believed that the students of UA High's top class were the future of the world, and that he would personally be training them to become the next Symbols of Peace like himself. However, the true reason All Might agreed to teach at UA was anything but to be a simple teacher.

ARCTAS: The truth was that All Might was... well, he was growing old. Old and weak thanks to a brutal fight five years prior with his ultimate foe; All For One, the biggest villain in history. Having lost half of his respiratory system in the fight, Yagi Toshinori, the man behind the smile, ultimately decided that it was finally time that he sought out a successor to his legacy!

RUKASU: However, the legendary hero didn't even reach UA before he found the perfect fit for the role; a young Quirkless boy who had the heart of a true hero, Izuku Midoriya.

ARCTAS: All Might watched this kid almost throw his life away to save his best friend from a villain, and knew right then and there that he had found the next Symbol of Peace! It also helped that Izuku basically worshipped the big man for most of his life, and truly believed in the goal for peace that All Might dreamed of. The legacy of the Number One Hero had its true successor chosen before we'd even gotten to Episode Two!

RUKASU: However, the power of that successor would only be as strong as the friends he surrounded himself with. After all, no hero works alone in a world of danger.

ARCTAS: Young Midoriya couldn't take on the mantle of All Might's successor alone, which makes it lucky that his class is made up of the best friends he could ask for!

RUKASU: Some believed heroes should be strong and undefeatable, such as Eijiro Kirishima, hero name Red Riot, who saw the idea of being a hero as the manliest thing any single person could do. Some saw heroism as a role of the highest honour, with the major example being Tenya Iida, hero name Ingenium, who fought to become a hero to honour his family's legacy in heroic careers.

ARCTAS: Some of the students did see past the good-hearted qualities of being a hero to seek their own goals, though, but don't let that come off as bad on their part! For example, Ochako Uraraka, hero name Uravity, only wanted to become a hero to make money, but the reason for that is because she wanted to support her family with their financial struggles!

RUKASU: There are many reasons someone would decide to become a hero in this world, but not all of the students were as pure-hearted. Some only saw heroism as a way of showing that they were the strongest, such as the previously-mentioned friend of Midoriya, Katsuki Bakugo, hero name Great Explosion Murder God Dynamight.

ARCTAS: ...that is the dumbest name I've ever heard, and that includes "the Great Saiyaman".

RUKASU: Alongside him stands Shoto Todoroki, hero name Shoto, who only wanted to become a hero to outgrow his father's desires and defiantly become his own idea of a hero just to spit in his father's face.

ARCTAS: Said father, by the way, happened to be the Number TWO Hero, Endeavour. Pretty big drama alert there, Shoto.

RUKASU: And then there was the chosen successor, Midoriya himself. What reason did he have for being amongst these hopefuls? Did he seek power? Fame? Wealth? Recognition? To prove himself? In short, none of the above. Izuku was, in every way, a genuinely kind soul, whose only reason for becoming a hero was... just to help people, just like his idol.

ARCTAS: Ohhh, THERE'S the main character! Had a hard time finding him. So Midoriya decided to embody his past and work towards his future, taking the hero name "Deku"!

RUKASU: A literal encapsulation of the choice that Midoriya made to never look back on his past with disdain, and instead become the hero who always gave it his all. With that, he joined Class A in their efforts towards becoming the next generation of heroes.

ARCTAS: As we've said before, every good hero needs a good Quirk to stand out amongst the crowd. Thankfully, every member of the class, either student or teacher, packs their own respectable punch!

    • Lets Deku generate black tendrils that he can use to wrap up foes, snag objects from a distance, or grapple to buildings and swing through the air

  • Ultimate Moves: Yaoyorozu's Lucky Bag

RUKASU: Every student and teacher has their Quirk logged in UA's official online servers, meaning we are privy to exactly how all of their Quirks work and the areas in which they lack.

ARCTAS: Quirks have been directly stated to be an evolution of the human race, and every Quirk has a different style and type in terms of how helpful it can be on a battlefield. There are three types of Quirk a person can have; Emitter, Mutant, and Transformation.

RUKASU: Emitter-types possess a Quirk that allows the user to create and effectively control aspects of physical reality, such as the elements or surrounding environments. This type of Quirk even has the capability of altering their respective fields in certain ways. The members of 1-A who possess Emitter-type Quirks include Aizawa, Mic, Midoriya, Bakugo, Todoroki, Uraraka, Yaoyorozu, Tokoyami, Ashido, Sato, Aoyama, and Kaminari, all of who possess Quirks designed to either control or create.

ARCTAS: Mutant-type Quirks are the type of powers that result in the wielder's body becoming altered to better suit whatever their Quirk happens to be, such as altering their hands and feet to better tackle different natural elements, or by granting extra limbs. The 1-A members who utilise Mutant-type Quirks are Koda, Shoji, Jiro, Iida, Hagakure, Sero, Ojiro, Mineta, and Tsuyu, whose appearances all reflect their respective abilities in one way or another, such as Iida's legs or Mineta's hair.

RUKASU: Transformation-type Quirks, also given the alternate name of "Composite" Quirks-

ARCTAS: *snickering*

RUKASU: ...are essentially temporary Mutant Quirks in that they have the power to temporarily alter the user's body, such as increasing durability or size. The only example of this Quirk type in Class A belongs to Kirishima, but his use of Hardening proves that he does not waste this exclusivity.

ARCTAS: All these differing types of Quirks all lead to the same result, though; Class 1-A are one hell of a strong force to be reckoned with!

RUKASU: As individuals, they are each strong in their own right, such as Bakugo's Explosion Quirk dealing immense wide-range damage to large groups of foes while also allowing for propelled flight, or Todoroki's Half-Cold, Half-Hot Quirk letting him turn up the heat or put enemies on ice in an instant due to his control of fire and ice, which can also be used for movement when combining the two.

ARCTAS: And if their attacks didn't do enough, just wait until Deku comes flying in from nowhere and DECKS you in the face with the might of the generational Quirk, One For All! This power granted to Midoriya by All Might allows him to boost his physical stats to an absurd degree, even to the point that a single punch can level a city! There's a reason that this Quirk in particular is the one that All For One himself feared the most!

RUKASU: It's easy to see what spawned this fear upon a deeper viewing into the Quirk; within the generationally-bestowed power lies the combined consciousness of seven previous wielders, their being what the series calls Vestiges, each of them being the origin behind each of the Quirks that Deku would come to unlock a bit of time into his hero career. Through this method of communication, Deku can receive advice and strategies from One For All's previous wielders, essentially being a full covert ops team inside of one head.

ARCTAS: Deku can also use One For All to feel All Might's essence, whether it be the man's emotions or if he's in trouble! That's a pretty deeply-sown student-teacher bond, if you ask me!

RUKASU: There also lies the previously-mentioned Quirks within One For All that make Deku even more versatile; Gearshift can alter the inertia of objects from flying faster than light to slowing to a complete stop, Fa Jin stores kinetic energy to be released all at once to allow for even more absurd speeds, Danger Sense warns Deku of any surrounding threat to him or his allies, Blackwhip lets him fire emotionally-charged tendrils to swing from buildings, Smokescreen lets the user release a purple smoke cloud to blind foes, and Float allows Deku to effectively fly through the air.

ARCTAS: It's complicated, but basically, he's like if Spider-Man and Superman had a kid! The only downside is that the pure raw power of One For All itself can destroy Deku's body if he's not careful with it! With every wielder, One For All grows in power, meaning that Deku would be the strongest of them all!

RUKASU: However, when the class of heroes knuckle down and work as a team, they are more than just children with flashy powers.

ARCTAS: These guys have even gone out of their way to create special moves that can only be pulled off through their own teamwork, like when Yaoyorozu and Kaminari worked together to create the "Electromagnetic Rail Gun", a giant rail gun made from Momo's Creation Quirk and powered by Kaminari's Electrification Quirk to fire hypersonic projectiles at enemies!

RUKASU: Alternatively, there's Iida and Todoroki, who can combine their powers to reach the pinnacle of speed, where Iida charges his Engine Quirk to it's maximum output, while Todoroki sends fire behind them and ice ahead of them, balancing propulsion and drag with ground contact and wind pressure to create a rapid movement rivalled by few.

ARCTAS: Even little shits like Mineta got in on the combo moves! He can team up with Ashido, hero name Pinky, and create a move where Ashido lets acid out of her feet, spins on the spot while holding onto Mineta, who throws out multiple of his head balls in different directions, before Ashido fucking YEETS the grapey kid to kingdom come! Mineta then bounces off the balls while throwing out even more, making him a living projectile who splits up into MORE projectiles as he flies!

RUKASU: It should be stated that Class 1-A has rarely ever worked together as a singular unit; they're almost always divided into duos or teams of three or four in combat. However, that doesn't deter them from the concept of mass teamwork, far from it.

ARCTAS: Before they could work on their bond, though, they needed to work on themselves! Those Quirks might be strong, but they might be TOO strong and unpredictable without the right equipment to keep them under control! That's where their Support Items come in!

RUKASU: Support Items were designed by professional engineers to help heroes control their Quirks and keep them controlled. A hero without Support Items is no hero at all.

ARCTAS: Not because they're irresponsible, but because they'd be dead. So very, very dead.

RUKASU: Class 1-A made extensive efforts to ensure that their Quirks would be substantially improved upon in reliability through the use of Support Items, either by reducing and masking their weaknesses, or by augmenting their strengths.

ARCTAS: Eraser Head and Present Mic are perfect examples of both sides of this idea! Aizawa's Support Item are his Eraser Goggles, which conceal his eyes and, therefore, who he's looking at in any situation, which makes it impossible for anyone to know whose Quirk he's Erasing when his eyes glow red, giving him an opening to get the drop on his foe with his other Support Item, the infamous SCARF! On the other side, Mic's Support comes from his "Directional Speaker System", which is basically a portable microphone augmented to be able to direct Mic's supersonic Quirk in any direction he wants, making him a really strong ranged fighter!

RUKASU: You can see how these Items would be tuned to suit their respective users from here; some like Todoroki and Iida have items that reduce the side-effects of overusing their Quirks, such as Iida's Engines overheating or Todoroki suffering frostbite from his ice. Some are designed to support the wearer directly, like with Uraraka's armour that's designed to reduce nausea and headaches due to her Quirk usage.

ARCTAS: There are those who use their Items as augmentations to their Quirks rather than just crutches for when they start to take a toll, though. Some like Bakugo and Kaminari requested Items designed to strengthen the effectiveness of their Explosions and Electricity respectively. Bakugo's Gauntlets store his nitroglycerin-like sweat over time, which he can then use whenever he needs to in order to let off a massive explosion from his arms! On the other side, Kaminari's Sharpshooting Gear lets him fire conductive discs at any target, and then fire his lightning off, which will then be attracted to wherever the disc landed, be it a wall or an unlucky opponent!

RUKASU: Some have specialised gear that outright remove downsides to their Quirks, such as Mineta having meticulously-designed gloves so that his hands don't stick to his sticky balls, or Aoyama wearing shades to protect his eyes from the shine of his Navel Laser. No matter how useless any certain item may appear to an average observer, we promise that every Support Item is crucial to the user's effectiveness in battle.

ARCTAS: Especially when it comes to All Might! When the big man finally ran out of One For All juice, he initially took a step back as a hero and allowed the students to continue to work towards becoming the next generation. But when that bastard All For One came back, now stronger than ever and threatening to kill all of his students and destroy everything he loved, Toshinori stepped up and chose to fight using the mainline series's ultimate Support Item; ARMOURED ALL MIGHT!

RUKASU: Officially dubbed the "Hercules Armour", this specialised suit can be summoned to All Might through his car Hercules. Using research gathered from across Class A's history together, All Might can execute multiple Ultimate Moves inspired by his students. Red Riot, Blackwhip, Pinky, Shoto, Ingenium, and even Great Explosion Murder God Dynamight are all moves built-in to the suit that were inspired by All Might's chosen successors.

ARCTAS: Aww, he really did love all of them, not just Midoriya! Good on ya, Yagi, show that All For One bastard why you're the Symbol of Peace!

RUKASU: The fight with All For One did prove too much for the suit to ultimately handle-

ARCTAS: SHIT!

RUKASU: But that didn't stop All Might from standing tall and laughing in the face of his likely death, entering hysterics that he sent straight into All For One's face. He may not have stopped the Symbol of Evil, but he knew that if HE could force the villain to fight with such desperation, then Class 1-A would certainly defeat him.

ARCTAS: Even when he’s about to die, he's always inspiring those who look up to him! I fucking love this guy!

RUKASU: With their Quirks and Support Items combined, Class A took the fight straight to the main threat to Japan; the League of Villains, who threatened to destroy the peace that All Might had brought during his time and return humanity to the time of the advent of Quirks, where all of society was in chaos.

ARCTAS: Yeah, it would be tough, especially when they were led by All For One, but I guarantee that if they had THIS stuff coming up, they would have swept the floor with the League in one week!

  • Glider: Coldburn Flier (exclusive to Todoroki)
  • Can build walls, floors and ramps via blueprints using wood, brick, or metal

RUKASU: As this is a composite rundown, we must briefly veer away from mainline canon and examine Class A's adventures throughout other pieces of media. Don't worry, our first stop doesn't go far; we find ourselves in the parallel world we see within the second season two ending, where the students of 1-A are reimagined as heroes in a fantasy land that lives on the power of magic.

ARCTAS: While we don't see MUCH of this world, the ending does give us enough to give the class some stuff that they wouldn't normally get in canon. For example, Bakugo gets a GIANT FUCKING DRAGON!

RUKASU: A giant FIRE-BREATHING dragon, to be precise. Alongside him, we see Uraraka wield magic using a magic staff, Iida wearing heavier armour that looks more akin to a knight, Tokoyami riding a giant raven, and Todoroki... riding a horse?

ARCTAS: And then there's Deku, who possesses the power to summon a giant Avatar of All Might to support him in battle! This summonable ally empowers Deku's strikes and lets him attack with blows that can blow entire armies away! Oh, and don't worry, All Might IS still here himself, and he even brought his Guts Sword to compete in the Berserk cosplay contest!

RUKASU: However, that is all we could truly discern from this ending, meaning we must depart this magical land and enter a new one that we are sure you have heard of...

ARCTAS: OVERWATCH!

RUKASU: Ow...

ARCTAS: Okay, my bad, sorry... now then, while All Might and co. haven't technically appeared in Overwatch CANONICALLY, some of the Overwatch guys DO have costumes that were pulled directly from Class A! By our own rules, that means whoever has a costume in Overwatch gets access to the weaponry of the character who wears their skin!

RUKASU: ...

ARCTAS: ...that sounded bad, I am so sorry...

RUKASU: All Might's outfit can be worn by Reinhardt, which doesn't give Toshinori all THAT much, but he DOES gain access to Reinhardt's Rocket Hammer, a giant behemoth of a weapon that sports rockets on it's end to give it momentum and strike with the force of a small car.

ARCTAS: Uraraka's outfit is sported by Juno, who was ever so kind to lend Uravity her Mediblaster! This funny little weapon fires harmful rounds at enemies, but those same rounds become healing projectiles if they hit an ally on Uraraka's side! It's honestly really cool and... really complex to think about...

RUKASU: And that leads us to the most natural combination; Deku's outfit is sported by Tracer herself, giving Midoriya access to the British agent's Chronal Accelerator and Pulse Pistols. The latter pair of weapons fire twenty energy rounds each in under a second, while the former is far more interesting. With this device, Tracer, and Deku by extension, can control her own time flow, either by speeding herself up to "blink" towards a location, or rewinding her time stream to reverse damage and "recall" herself to a previous point in time, sending her back to the place she was located five seconds prior.

ARCTAS: This means that Deku can punch you and then rewind time to where you lose sight of him completely! It would be like a ghooooost punched yooouuuuu~~

RUKASU: The Accelerator does have a necessary cooldown period of twelve seconds, so Deku wouldn't be able to constantly blink around for fun. If anything, it would be an ability utilized for when Deku is seriously injured. Now, are we missing anything el-

ARCTAS: FORTNITE!

RUKASU: ARCTAS!

ARCTAS: Okay, I'm sorry, that's the last time, I promise! Ahem... we find ourselves in the colourful world of the Island, a reality that houses a Point of Zero energy that created the multiverse! The Island originally was a friendly world, before some bastards called the Imagined Order took it over and began twisting the Zero Point to meet their goals!

RUKASU: They created the Loop, a twenty-two minute-long time loop that forces up to one hundred people to fight again and again and again. No singular soul that enters the Loop keeps their memory, and they are all robbed of their ability to talk. Their only option is to fight until they can, with luck, find a way to escape.

ARCTAS: The I.O. pulled in warriors from across reality to send them into the Loop to fight, examining them and taking notes for their own goals of creating a perfect world. This naturally led to them locking onto the world where Class A resides, leading them to pull All Might, Deku, Bakugo, Uraraka, Todoroki, Ashido, and Kirishima into the Loop!

RUKASU: Now, we have no story evidence of these chosen class members and their time in the Loop to truly gauge how they stack up compared to the other Loopers. However, we know they must have escaped and returned back to their own reality simply because the main series continued past the point where they appeared in the Loop. While they may have escaped, however, they remain a permanent aspect of the Island, thanks to the Loop creating what the I.O. call "Snapshots"; identical clones of the hero class that remained in the Loop while the originals made it home. Whatever the mainline Class A can handle and survive, the Snapshots can take just as much punishment and thensome. What they experienced, what they remember, and what they went through, however, will likely never be known.

ARCTAS: On the other hand, that DOESN'T mean they did nothing at all! Being in the Loop means you get access to a whole host of different guns and tools to use against opponents! Assault Rifles, Shotguns, Pistols, Snipers, Rocket Launchers, and... a shopping cart? Yes, folks, they gave Deku a gun! Time to learn a whole new Shoot Style, young Midoriya!

RUKASU: Yeah, that joke got old as soon as it was said. Anyways, if their escape from the Loop proves anything at all, it's that these hero students are nothing to scoff at. Their drive to protect the ones they love and preserve the peace of their world is strong enough to eclipse entire other worlds that try to contain their heroic spirit. They are heroes, and they will never hesitate to fight for the future that their teachers saw for them.

ARCTAS: They're not just a class of students; they're a full-blown army that will send you flying if you piss them off!

• All Might, Deku, Bakugo, Uraraka, Todoroki, Kirishima, and Ashido's Snapshots experienced the Zero Point's Big Bang

RUKASU: Together, Class A have proven time and again why they;re considered the new shining hope for the future, including facing off against their fellow hero students in Class 1-B, taking the fight to the League of Villains many times and proving to be a formidable threat to them, and waging a war against All For One and Tomura Shigaraki, the latter of whom was determined to destroy the dream that All Might had for a peaceful future.

ARCTAS: He was so determined, in fact, that he used his Quirk to annihilate an entire city, killing thousands and leaving society in fear of him. Class A tried their damndest to restore the peace, but the public opinion on heroes was changing. Combined with what had recently been revealed about the Number Two Hero, Endeavour... the public had begun to lose faith in the hero society.

RUKASU: This outcome was exactly what All For One sought; a restoration of the chaos seen only when Quirks first appeared. Class A fought hard to try and restore the public's faith in them, but one... went a bit further than others.

ARCTAS: Young Midoriya, shaken to the core by Shigaraki's actions and knowing that he was his and AFO's primary target, chose to leave UA to keep his friends safe; if the villains wanted him, they'd get him and him alone.

RUKASU: Deku left his class to pursue the villains as a vigilante, fighting countless villains alone and with no food, water, or even sleep. The young boy fought a war for his friends without ever considering himself, because he genuinely just wanted to help. In his desperation, he even left All Might behind to pursue his goal of stopping All For One.

ARCTAS: And yet, despite that, Deku himself never realised just how much Class A cared about him. When he was drowning, his classmates came to pull him out, determined to bring their friend home.

RUKASU: Deku fought back against his friends, desperate to keep them safe and to keep moving forward. But by this time, he had exhausted himself to the point that he physically couldn't walk forward, even collapsing to his knees when he tried. Class A saw this ragged and desperate teen fighting against his own body to simply stay awake, and finally asked themselves a simple question...

ARCTAS: THIS is what the public saw as heroism? This self-destruction of one's self, this single kid throwing his life away to fight a war, all on his own, despite his own limits... this is what the public wanted?

RUKASU: Uraraka stood up and asked this very question to the masses when Deku was brought back to UA; the public had been gathered their for safety, yet when Deku was spotted at the gates-

ARCTAS: The bastards tried to kick him out again! They weren't willing to let the poor guy rest! What kind of society is this?! Do they just expect kids to throw their lives away for them?!

RUKASU: Yes, because they did not see a young boy desperately fighting a losing war. They saw someone who promised to live up to All Might. They took their expectations from All Might, and placed them upon Midoriya. Everyone wanted a new Symbol of Peace, but they didn't realise that their actions were destroying their Symbol of Hope.

ARCTAS: When they finally understood how badly they fucked up, the public let Deku return and rest, ensuring that Class A would stand as a single unit against the villains who sought to destroy their world. And hot damn, if they didn't prove that they were a unit together!

RUKASU: Bakugo was capable of moving faster than a powered-up Shigaraki could perceive. Shigaraki could keep up with Deku, who could move at relativistic speeds, and likely higher, when utilising Gearshift's ability to alter inertia. Therefore, it should be acceptable to think that Bakugo could attack at similar speeds, which would also apply to the rest of Class A, who can keep up with him.

ARCTAS: Todoroki's fire is so powerfully hot that, with effort, he nearly melted the solid-steel skin of the student Tetsutetsu! That was back during the School Festival, and Todoroki's gotten stronger since then!

RUKASU: And then there's Deku himself. The inheritor of One For All has used the Quirk to great effect, alongside its in-laid Quirks. Even while inexperienced with the power, he was strong enough to land a blow against a giant robot that resulted in the robot being knocked over and completely destroyed.

ARCTAS: Later on, Deku would channel 100% of his full power at that point to beat a huge villain called Muscular, a huge guy who could grow stronger by increasing his muscle mass! The fight was a stressful one, but Deku ultimately beat the bad guy, much to Muscular's anger.

RUKASU: Muscular would later return to continue his rampage, only to once again be met face-to-face with Midoriya, much to his delight; the villain had been eager to get back at the boy for his previous defeat. However, Deku's power had increased to such a high level by this time, that a single 45% Detroit Smash put Muscular down instantly, proving the significant levels of improvement that Midoriya had undergone.

ARCTAS: Other members of the class can prove to be impressive too! Iida stood strong against villains of all shapes and sizes, even keeping pace with those considered as strong, if not stronger, than All Might in his Prime! Meanwhile, Uraraka was able to fight on-par with the yandere villain Himiko Toga, whose Quirk let her replicate the appearance and Quirks of whoever she drank the blood of, including Deku!

RUKASU: Kirishima is able to fight on-par with Bakugo, which easily scales him to be his equal, while also proving his strength is formidable on its own, such as him being able to leave injuries on a villain who was stated to have bulletproof skin.

ARCTAS: Tokoyami's power was such a high bar that him using Dark Shadow to its full potential was even a threat to All For One himself! The guy tried to hold back an attack from Tokoyami, only to be outright overpowered and crushed by his strength! Remember, all of Class A are strong in their own right. This isn't only about Midoriya... no matter how much the series wants to make it seem that way.

RUKASU: Then let's look at a collective feat that can be applied to all of the hero class; let's cut back to Fortnite, where we find ourselves on the edge of a cataclysmic event of multiversal scale. The Big Bang was an event set off by the protagonist of the story, Agent Jones, which caused the Zero Point to be destroyed and, well, react by causing the Big Bang, giving out enough energy to reset the entirety of reality, including Reality Zero.

ARCTAS: All the guys we previously mentioned that got pulled into the Loop had their Snapshots created before the Big Bang occurred, meaning that the Snapshots were there to experience and survive it, which ALSO means that the main guys get that feat too, since we established that Snapshots are on-par with their original selves in every way! That's right; Class 1-A survived a MULTIVERSAL Big Bang!

RUKASU: Once again proving that the heroic spirit will fall to no enemy. If even the Big Bang itself cannot prove to be enough to stop the heroes, then what possibly can?

ARCTAS: Easy; give 'em a threat that could destroy their series as a whole instead of just their world! That's where Jump Force comes in, where Deku alone joined forces with his fellow heroes of Shonen Jump to combat a threat known as the Key Master! Or more boringly known as Prometheus.

RUKASU: Prometheus threatened to wipe out all of the worlds of Jump with his power, proving so strong that even the likes of Son Goku himself could not best him. No one hero stood a chance against the might of this foe.

ARCTAS: So how did they solve that? They powered up the OC! Yeah, it was kinda lame, but Deku did help out by lending some of his energy to the Spirit Bomb that Goku fired at the Jump Force Avatar to power him up to be able to beat Prometheus. It took the power of ALL of the Jump heroes just to be able to stand up to this guy!

RUKASU: Deku himself, however, does prove to be more powerful within this story's canon, combatting his fellow Shonen heroes as well as a few of their villains... at least the ones that weren't Piccolo.

ARCTAS: All Might, Bakugo and Todoroki also appeared in this game, but they weren't there to help out against Prometheus, meaning only Deku gets that lucrative sub-scaling. Bad luck, Kaachan, you got shown up again!

RUKASU: If all of these feats prove anything, however, it's that Class 1-A, now led by Deku as the successor to the Symbol of Peace, are not a group of individuals to be taken lightly. Together, they pulled through the war forced upon them by All For One, and Deku ultimately put an end to his threat for good with a final punch that cleared the storm above Japan... and even across America.

ARCTAS: The kid had LOST One For All at this point to All For One, for context's sake, so these were just the Embers he was working with, meaning he should be EVEN STRONGER than that! Stronger than a continental-sized weather pattern, how do you even do that...

RUKASU: It does feel fitting that All For One was defeated once and for all by the Embers of the Quirk he had feared for so long; All Might himself had defeated the villain previously with HIS final Embers, proving that the Quirk, in Deku's hands, had overtaken All For One as the most powerful Quirk in history.

ARCTAS: That makes it a shame that with his death, One For All was destroyed, leaving Deku Quirkless once again. But hey, he's happy with that, because his friends got to live in peace as the new generation of heroes. Deku himself decided to step back from hero work, taking up a teaching role within UA High itself, mirroring his idol by choosing to take the chance to raise new heroes for the next generation!

RUKASU: Even then, Class A weren't willing to leave their Symbol of Hope behind. They all chipped in to afford Midoriya a brand new suit, similar to the Hercules Armour, that Deku could use to fight as a Pro Hero once more. Not much is known of the abilities of this "Costume Omega", but from what we see of it, we can safely assume that it was designed to replicate all of Deku's lost Quirks, as well as be superior to Armoured All Might thanks to the research gathered from it in the final battle.

ARCTAS: Aww, so he can be a teacher AND a hero thanks to his friends! It just goes to show you, I suppose; alone, they're strong, but together, Class 1-A Go Beyond and truly become the greatest heroes in the world! PLUS ULTRA!

Pre-Death Battle[]

RUKASU: Alright, the combatants are set, and we've run the data through all possibilities... which took a really, REALLY long time.

ARCTAS: It'ts tiiiime for a DEATH BATTLLLLLLLLLLLLLLE!

Death Battle[]

The screen flickered inside of the contained room, lighting up the crowd of student's faces as a man in a black suit stood before them, accompanied by two other men who remained silent.

"I normally wouldn't call you all here like this..." the man announced. "But I'm afraid we might have a global threat on our hands".

"Even bigger than All For One?" one voice called out, causing everyone else to look alarmed. The man cleared his throat, his expression grim.

"I believe so, yes" he replied, causing all eyes, including his fellow teachers, to look at him in shock. "The government of Japan only recently informed me of this situation". The screen changed to reveal what looked like a giant yellow octopus with a gleaming smile, much to the surrounding class's confusion. One boy even scoffed.

"Oh, come on, seriously?!" he guffawed derisively. "THAT'S our global threat?"

"Don't be fooled by his looks, young Bakugo" All Might warned, his sunken eyes flashing as he changed the screen again. "I've been informed that this being is faster than any hero can physically or even mentally attack it, and powerful enough to destroy the entire planet with one attack. Here's some evidence to prove it".

The screen revealed the Moon, carved into a permanent crescent, allowing the class to put two and two together. When they did, it struck them like thunder.

"Wait... that creature did that?" one girl asked in fear. Everyone remembered the day; the Moon had suddenly exploded in the middle of space, losing seventy percent of its mass and leaving it in that permanent shape. It had been the event of the century, one that had caused widespread panic across the globe. A set of green eyes flicked down to his notepad, scribbling furiously.

"He must have a really powerful Quirk... speed and power combined, and seemingly having no drawback" he stated. "He could be a serious danger to the entire planet!"

"Correct" All Might stated, changing the screen again to reveal a picture of a mountain situated on the outskirts of a city. "We have been given info that the octopus resides here, on the mountain in Kunugigaoka. He has been educating a class of junior high schoolers for reasons we have yet to discover".

"No wonder we've never heard of him" another boy said. "He's been hiding out in a Quirkless town! That's so cowardly! Not manly at all!"

"Those poor kids..." another girl spoke up. "We have to help them!"

"Then what are we waiting for?" The first boy spoke again, sounding eager. "Let's go kill the bastard!" With that, the boy bolted to the door, threw it open, and ran out of sight, despite his classmates's protests. All Might sighed.

"I'll go catch up with him so he doesn't get hurt" he stated, getting up. "The rest of you, follow us as closely as you can, but don't engage until I have young Bakugo send up a signal. Young Midoriya, I would like you to stay back until I myself call you in, just as a last resort. These kids aren't just being taught by that creature..."

"...they're being trained as professional killers".

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

The Class E Mountain stood tall over the city of Kunugigaoka, being a deliberate antithesis to its purpose of making its inhabitants feel worthless. Up the winding forest path and opening up to a large flat plain where the shack-like E Classroom stood, the E class, all dressed in PE uniform, was hard at work in their PE lesson, striking rhythmically to a beat provided to them by their PE instructor, Tadaomi Karasuma.

"Strike swiftly!" Karasuma called across the field. "Your target is fast, so you must strike fast yourselves!"

"Yes, sir!" the class responded, before returning to their rhythmic strikes. From afar, the class's octopus mentor, Koro-Sensei, watched on from his tree branch perch with pride. The students had been rapidly improving with their training over the course of the year, growing slowly as killers and as people as they did so.

It was only a matter of time before they would be strong enough to finally kill him.

"DIE!"

Koro-Sensei suddenly jumped down from his perch with a yelp as an explosion flew over his head and blew up in the sky, catching the class's attention. Karasuma held up his hand to cease the exercise, looking shocked at the sudden attempt on the target's life.

A figure approached from out of the forest, spinning his right arm back as he stretched from his initial attack. "Damn" he chuckled in an evil manner, eyes locked onto Koro-Sensei, who stared back. "They weren't kidding about you... Koro-Sensei, isn't it? You ARE fast as hell". He stepped out into the sunlight, revealing a blonde-haired teen adorned in what looked like a grenade-themed superhero costume.

"May I ask your name, young man?" Koro-Sensei requested curiously. Katsuki Bakugo's grinned widened.

"Great Explosion Murder God Dynamight" he responded, jerking his thumb at himself proudly. Class E stood there for a few seconds, before they all began giggling together uncontrollably. Bakugo was not pleased. "HEY! IT'S A COOL NAME, DAMMIT!" he yelled angrily in their direction, trying to scare them into shutting up. However, that only resulted in the giggling growing into full-fledged laughter. "SHUT UUUUUP!" Bakugo screamed, and he actually threw another explosion at the class in his anger, making the class yell out in shock.

A sudden blast of wind foretold the result as the explosion went off, with the smoke clearing to reveal Koro-Sensei standing in front of his students at full height, looking uncharacteristically angry. His skin had begun to turn from yellow to a dark red.

"You must be from a Quirked area, Dynamight" he stated, using the name with as much venom as possible. "Tell me; what brings you to our humble classroom?"

Bakugo shook his head in disbelief. "What brings ME? Oh, come on, that's rude" he said with a hint of glee. "Like I'd ever come here alone". A sudden WOOSH from the forest could be heard, and the class looked up to see a new arrival flying through the air towards the field. A laugh rang out as the figure landed, revealing what looked to be a giant of a man with more muscle than what should be reasonable, before the man suddenly transformed into a much skinnier form, coughing up blood as he fell down onto his knees.

"Children!" he managed to call out, standing up and addressing the assassin class, holding up his hand in a sign of peace. "There is no need to fear this monstrous killer any longer".

"May I ask who YOU are, my good man?" Koro-Sensei asked curiously. The skeletal man turned to face the monster, holding out an arm to prevent his companion from attacking.

"I am All Might, the former Number One Hero" he introduced himself, before raising a hand to introduce the teen behind him. "This is my student, Katsuki Bakugo. He tends to introduce himself with his hero name first".

"Hero...?" Class E asked all at once. Bakugo scoffed.

"Yeah! Hero! We're here to take care of this tentacle creep for ya! You're welcome!" he announced, sounding extremely proud as he puffed out his chest, before he resumed his intimidating look and glowered at the students with a malicious smile. "And if you even think about standing in our way... we'll kill you too" he sneered with malice.

"Alright, alright, that's enough, young man!" All Might scolded quickly, grabbing the boy's shoulder and pulling him closer. "They're just kids! They have no part in-"

The pair of them suddenly found themselves shivering from a cold that wasn't there. They turned to see class E glaring at them with ill intent, evil smiles adorning every last face. Koro-Sensei changed from red back to yellow, though this time with green stripes adorning his face.

"Nurfufufufufufu!" he giggled, standing tall against the new challengers for his bounty. "You seem confident in your words, young man! But tell me... have you ACTUALLY ended a life before?" he asked, his tone dripping with malice even more potent than Bakugo's. Bakugo himself now looked like he'd realised that he'd bitten off more than he could chew. He turned to All Might, who raised his hand again to keep the peace for a moment longer.

"We wish no harm upon the students" he stated, watching as the class didn't change its stance. "We are here to end your life and save the world from your threat. However, if the students choose to stand in our way..." His eyes flashed with a gold glow. "They will be considered culpable in your crimes".

Koro-Sensei chuckled again, but this time with more evil intent. "I think you'll find that my students are more than willing to fight for the right to claim my bounty, Number One Hero" he said, sounding as though he found the thought of these new arrivals claiming his bounty to be laughable. All Might sighed, and turned to Bakugo.

"Send the signal" he surrendered. "We need everyone". Bakugo looked as though Christmas had come early as he sent an explosion directly upwards into the sky. Class E watched as the boy did this, looking thoroughly confused.

"Uh... shouldn't he be sending that at us?" Hiroto Maehara asked, looking at his friends and pointing towards Bakugo, who was simply standing still now, waiting for something. His friends shrugged, but entered their ready stances all the same. Within seconds, all twenty-six of the present students looked ready to fight.

"Where's...?" Tomohito Sugino whispered towards Kaede Kayano, who shrugged.

"I think he immediately ran off the second these guys arrived" she replied quietly. "My bet is that he's watching us all from afar".

"Ritsu" Yuma Isogai muttered to his phone as he pulled it out of his pocket, and its screen flashed on to show the assassin class's final member, who gazed up at Isogai with determination. "Find out everything you can about these guys. Start with that Dynamight guy and track backwards, maybe?"

"You got it!" Ritsu whispered as she gave a thumbs-up, and flashed off of the screen again, letting Isogai pocket the device.

Exactly WHAT Bakugo had been waiting for finally became apparent as thundering footsteps on dirt began ringing out across the mountain, making class E further ready themselves as multiple figures leapt out from the trees, each of them entering a stance behind All Might. Bakugo grinned as he himself took a step back to join them. Before anyone could say anything, no less than nineteen students appeared behind All Might, looking ready for war as two men appeared on either side of the former hero. The left man looked up from behind his long black hair, glaring at the students and teachers with a glowing red eye, only to immediately shift it back to their natural black.

"No Quirks at all...?" Shota Aizawa murmured, but he chose to push this to the side as he spoke out, his hair and scarf beginning to float around him. "A final warning, students of Class 3-E; retreat now, and let us deal with the villain... or be considered villains alongside him, and be forced to submit" he stated firmly. Karasuma stepped forward, looking angry.

"You have no authority here" he stated, glaring back at Aizawa. "I have the right to have you all arrested. Leave now, and I'll let this slip under the government's radar".

"Hah!" Bakugo scoffed. "Are you deaf, old man? Heroes can work where-ever they want thanks to their licenses!" He pulled his own license out and waved it high for Karasuma to see. "Your authority can't do shit. Now get out of our way!"

Koro-Sensei now looked downright angry himself, his skin pulsing from yellow to black. "I think you will find that this will not be such an easy 'hero job' as you think" he stated coldly.

"It will not be easy" All Might agreed, holding up his fist in his signature pose. "But we will do what needs to be done... Koro-Sensei". He let his fist drop.

Class 1-A instantly acted, each of them running out from behind their mentor and rushing forward to do their duty. Class E grabbed their real weaponry from their sheathes and stood strong, only to be forced to split apart into single members as Bakugo blasted into the air and hurled an explosion directly into their centre. Each student immediately split up, locking eyes with a student from Class A as the heroes rapidly closed the distance.

Koro-Sensei blasted away into the sky as Kayano turned to face her own opponent; none other than the Zero Gravity hero, Uravity. Uraraka made sure to touch multiple rocks and boulders around her, sending them floating into the air as she stared Kayano down with determination. Kayano spun her knife in her hand and ran at Uraraka, only to be forced to begin dodging as the hero began hurling some of the smaller rocks at her, hoping to incapacitate her rather than cause any major harm.

"Please, you don't have to do this!" she called down, watching as Kayano slowly made her way through the onslaught. "Just stand down and let us take care of this monster!"

"Don't act so FULL of yourself!" Kayano yelled back angrily, finally reacting fast enough to stab her knife into a rock and pull herself up with force, flying at Uraraka who failed to react in time out of shock. The young actress grabbed a second silver knife from her uniform, tackling the hero out of the air and causing them to fly across the battlefield as the fight began to become more heated. Kayano swung her blades in a sweeping motion, causing Uraraka to dodge as she quickly realised she wasn't facing an ordinary girl.

The pair flew over Isogai and Tenya Iida, who were currently locked in a standoff as Isogai had a gun trained on his fellow class representative. "Why do you all think we can't handle Koro-Sensei ourselves?" the assassin asked, sounding desperate to find a peaceful solution. Iida shook his head in sympathy.

"I'm afraid that our educators do not believe you and your friends are up to the challenge!" he replied, before activating his engines and bolting out of Isogai's line of sight. He dashed behind him and aimed a punch at the back of the assassin's head, only to be caught off guard as Isogai turned and caught his punch, now looking furious.

"You have no idea what we can and can't handle!" he said angrily, dropping his gun and delivering a punch to Iida's stomach, winding the hero as Isogai followed up with rapid attacks, forcing Iida to defend and retreat. He ran past Itona Horibe and Shoto Todoroki, who were exchanging no words, only attacking each other with intent to incapacitate the other, with Todoroki sending waves of ice one after the other as Itona evaded and moved in to strike.

Iida continued running past a sudden lighting strike that Maehara only just managed to dodge, standing up straight as Denki Kaminari slid in to make an attempt at attacking the assassin playboy. Maehara caught Kaminari's attempted backhand and forced it down, aiming a kick at the other boy's face that Kaminari only just ducked under. The hero reached up and tried to grab Maehara to shock him, but this proved in vain as his lightning coursed harmlessly through Maehara's PE uniform.

"Huh?" Kaminari didn't understand why his lightning wasn't working, only to be forced to duck backwards as Maehara aimed an elbow downwards towards his head. "How the hell-?! What is that suit made of?!" he said out loud in shock. Maehara didn't reply, instead choosing to smirk and run at Kaminari once more, kneeing him in the stomach and winding him.

Across the field, the same form of result was occurring; while Class A proved formidable thanks to their Quirks, Class E kept up due to being the only side with actual hand-to-hand training. Aizawa watched as he caught his scarf onto the E classroom roof and pulled himself up to stand atop it, looking understandably frustrated that most of his students were showing minimal signs of true combat training. He noticed Mineta failing to overcome Taiga Okajima, standing over the smaller boy with a rifle in hand, and flung out his scarf at the assassin to save his student, whipping it around the boy's rifle and ripping it out of his hands. Okajima only just dodged the attack physically, looking afraid as Aizawa leapt down and ran towards him, looking determined.

"Try that on me" a gruff voice snarled, and Aizawa failed to turn in time as a fist flew in and landed in his face, making the hero teacher stumble and fall to the ground as Karasuma cracked his knuckles. He pulled out his own combat knife, eyeing Aizawa up as the battle raged around them. "You shouldn't have come here. Someone is going to get hurt".

"Correct" Aizawa replied, his hair floating around him as he grabbed his scarf. "Your students must now face the consequences of siding with a villain". Karasuma snarled as he bolted forward, striking at Aizawa with his knife in an attack that the Pro Hero caught easily, He spun around to deliver a roundhouse kick at Karasuma, who dodged backwards to avoid it, only for the government agent to be caught off guard by Aizawa's scarf as it wrapped around him and yanked him forwards, leaving him unable to dodge as Aizawa landed a strong blow into his chest, winding Karasuma as Aizawa pulled him closer, delivering several more blows that caused Karasuma to look more and more injured with every strike.

"Hey! Asshole!" a female voice suddenly called from Aizawa's left. He turned and was quickly forced to dodge a bullet as Irina fired her pistol at him, running at the hero with fury in her features. A yellow blur shot out of nowhere towards the professional assassin, making Irina block as Present Mic came bolting in to strike at her, sending a sonic yell at her to force her back. Aizawa suddenly shouted in pain as Karasuma kicked him in the shin from his kneeling position, making his scarf loosen as the government agent freed himself and jumped up, giving Aizawa no time to breathe as he instantly went on the offensive once more. Irina spun a knife out of her belt and attempted to stab Mic in the shoulder, only to fail due to the Pro Hero's agility as he dodged under the attack with ease.

The two pairs of teachers went blow for blow from that point, failing to notice as Koro-Sensei flew above with a blast of wind, being forced to dodge as he was heatedly pursued through the air by Bakugo, who sent explosion after explosion after the octopus. The attempted attacks flew everywhere, even threatening Bakugo's own classmates as they were fighting Class E, causing the heroes to give the assassin class openings that were capitalised on immediately. Koro-Sensei turned in the air to stare Bakugo down, looking angry as an X flashed over his face.

"Hold on, those are YOUR allies!" he called, sounding disapproving despite his anger, his teacher moniker shining through his emotions. "Be more careful with your attacks, they could be caught in your crossfire!"

"If they get hit, that's their fault for getting in the way!" Bakugo shouted back, an evil grin stuck to his face as he threw another explosion at the teacher, who dodged easily yet again. "They're just extras, after all! What do I care if they can't handle my way of doing things?"

A rock suddenly came flying up from below, impacting Bakugo's chin and causing him to shout in pain. He fell to the ground in a daze, only just managing to land on his feet as he was suddenly encountered with Karma Akabane, who smirked as his strike was quickly caught by the explosive teen.

"You talk a lot of crap for someone who looks straight out of a cheesy 90's cartoon" the redhead taunted, easily dodging a blast from Bakugo that was sent flying into the E classroom. The wall was blown apart, sending wood and glass everywhere and causing Class E to turn and look in shock.

"I'll blow you away!" Bakugo shouted angrily, sending blast after blast at Karma, who dodged every attack, watching as the blasts hit the classroom again and again, slowly blowing it apart and causing the redhead to slowly stop smiling. Bakugo, however, had seemingly failed to notice the damage he was causing. "GO TO HELL!" the explosive teen screamed, smacking his hands together and sending a final explosion that Karma was forced to roll out of the way to dodge, leaving him unable to react as the final blast hit the classroom.

The explosion was big enough to force everyone to give an amassed yell, ducking down as sparks, flaming wood and shattered glass was sent flying everywhere. Class E looked up in despair to see their classroom completely destroyed, its remains burning angrily as the remainder of Bakugo's attack burned away at it. Koro-Sensei watched from above, looking horror-struck as he watched the remains of the building burn into a cloud of black smoke. Bakugo let out a hesitant choking sound, his form beginning to shake upon realising what he had just done.

"O-oh God, I... n-no, I didn't mean-" he began, sounding genuinely afraid, but-

"You BASTARD!" Karma suddenly shouted in fury, appearing in front of Bakugo and punching him in the face hard enough to cause the boy to spit up blood and a knocked out tooth. "I'll kill you for that, you BASTARD!" Karma landed another punch, this time into Bakugo's stomach that winded the boy instantly, forcing the Explosion Hero to retreat in shock. Around the pair, Class E turned to their opponents as well, now also looking murderous.

"You're all gonna wish you stayed in your comic books!" Terasaka snarled, landing a palm into Eijiro Kirishima's forehead that actually forced the boy to step back despite being in his Hardened state. Aizawa and Mic found themselves on the brunt end of Class E's fury too, being forced to retreat backwards as Karasuma and Irina attacked with newfound fury. Karasuma's eyes were wide with anger, and Irina looked no better, catching Present Mic's fist in one hand and striking him in the neck with the other, sending Mic stumbling back while gasping for air. Aizawa was forced to protect Mic as he noticed that the assassin teachers were now working in tandem.

"This was a SCHOOL, you cowardly bastards!" Irina screamed in rage, sending a stab that Aizawa barely caught before it hit Mic, as the pair of them defended with wide eyes. The rest of class 1-A were slowly being forced on the defensive as well; Mineta was throwing ball after ball in a panic at Okajima, who sliced through every one while looking more intimidating than he had in his entire life, and Kaminari was forced to encase himself in a lightning cage as Maehara refused to relent, punching and stabbing at his opponent in fury.

"Mr Aizawa!" Iida called towards his teacher, causing Aizawa to turn his head to look at his student in shock; Iida's helmet was badly damaged, as he was currently being forced to run from Isogai, who looked just as murderous as his classmates as he fired bullet after bullet at his foe from his rifle. "We need direction! What are your orders?" the class representative asked, briefly stopping next to Aizawa and Mic and assisting them in fending off Karasuma and Irina.

"Retreat to the forest!" Aizawa commanded. "We'll use stealth!" Iida nodded and ran off, alerting his friends of the plan one by one. Class A heard the message and fended off their Class E opponent long enough to run into the trees.

"After them!" Maehara shouted angrily. Class E immediately gave chase, following the hero class into the trees as they pursued them, determined to avenge the classroom that they had called home. Their efforts proved fruitless, however, as they quickly lost Class A in the greenery, causing even Koro-Sensei to appear infuriated.

"Dammit!" Karma cursed, before instantly beginning to search the bushes. "Spread out! They have to be here somewhere!"

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

In the bushes, Class A regrouped to try and discuss tactics, taking care not to alert class E as they searched the forest with ill intent, their bloodlust so strong that a few members were forced to breathe heavily to remain calm. All Might, who had been forced to remain back due to his weak form, looked around at his students, who looked back at him with pained expressions.

"We've clearly underestimated this class" the former hero stated.

"No shit" Bakugo hissed back, holding his face with his hand and glaring at his childhood idol. "None of you could have told us they have Quirks while also being able to kick our asses in hand-to-hand?!"

"Those weren't Quirks" Aizawa cut in, shaking his head as he peered through the branches; Koro-Sensei and Karasuma led the search party as they covered the forest ground, both of them looking furious. "They have strong talents outside of the standard Quirk evolution. The kind that my Quirk has no effect against".

"That doesn't mean we're weak against them!" Kirishima spoke up, holding up a Hardened fist with a look of determination.

"So what are you saying?" Todoroki asked, looking up at Aizawa and All Might with determined eyes. "Should we stop holding back?"

All Might looked out of the bush at Class E, who were still furiously searching for them; Karma and Isogai led the charge, yelling for everyone else to hurry up. For the briefest of moments, the former Symbol of Peace suddenly caught sight of another pair of eyes.

A pair of shining azure pupils hidden in the trees... glaring right at him and the rest of the hero class.

One blink, however, and All Might lost sight of this discovery, causing him to shake his head vigorously. "I'm afraid we have no choice" he said regretfully, making everyone look shocked and even afraid. Bakugo, however, looked to have become rejuvenated as sparks flew up from his palms. "I need you all to let go of your limits, and possibly even your morals. These kids, their teachers, and the villain are trying to kill you. I need cover to find Hercules so that I can help you, but don't be afraid to-"

"FOUND THEM!" Maehara suddenly shouted, and the hero class turned in alarm to see the playboy aiming their rifle right at them. Maehara pulled the trigger, sending a hail of bullets in 1-A's direction as they scattered. All Might ran away into the cover of the foliage, pulling out his phone and dialing a familiar number.

"Young Midoriya? It appears we need you after all".

"You heard the old man!" Bakugo shouted, sounding determined. "No holding back! Make 'em regret threatening heroes like us!" He threw up his arm and sent an explosion at Maehara, much bigger than any attack he had shown previously, causing the young assassin to roll out of the way, only to be blown away a large distance by the yield of the explosion. Class E rapidly closed the distance as Bakugo aimed both hands forwards.

"Go beyond" he growled, feeling a stab of guilt for causing this fight to escalate to this level as he let a far more powerful explosion fly from his hands, forcing the assassin class to dodge out of the way in unison as the ground became cratered from the strike, sending singed grass and dirt flying everywhere.

Suddenly, a quarter of the Class E students felt a blow impact their face with enough force to make them stumble. Koro-Sensei arrived and looked around in fury for the one responsible for hurting his students. He felt a rapidly approaching force to his side and sent out a tentacle, catching Iida by his arm as the Class A representative attempted to punch him, making the boy's eyes widen.

"Iida! Down!" Mashirao Ojiro called, causing Iida to duck down to the ground as the Tailed Hero came flying in, landing a flying kick into Koro-Sensei's torso and sending the teacher flying back, landing winded on his feet. Ojiro landed himself and entered his fight stance, looking around as Hazama, Muramatsu and Yoshida surrounded him.

"Take down knock-off Ryu!" Terasaka called to his friends, running through as more students entered conflicts of their own with Itona at his side. "These assholes aren't getting away with what they've done!" He suddenly sensed an attack from his right and threw out his arm, stopping Itona as a wall of ice appeared in front of them. Terasaka and Itona turned to face Kirishima and Todoroki, both with their Quirks on full display; Kirishima had entered his Hardened form once more, and Todoroki's fire and ice danced across his body in perfect harmony.

"You have brought this fate upon yourselves" Todoroki stated coldly, raising his right arm and firing a projectile of ice at the pair, making Itona tackle Terasaka to the ground. The pair looked at each other, ducking down further as more of Bakugo's explosions went off above them.

"Rock Head or Zuko Lite?" Terasaka asked gruffly.

"I'll take Fire-and-Ice" Itona replied stubbornly, standing up and staring Todoroki down. "You can take the rock guy".

"No complaints from me!" Terasaka yelled, jumping up and rushing Kirishima, who immediately threw up his arms as Terasaka pulled out his combat knife and thrust it down on the hero's Hardened skin. Itona also closed the distance, sliding under Todoroki's fire blast and landing an uppercut on the half-and-half teen, dazing him as Itona landed a knee into his stomach, only just managing to come to his senses to catch Itona's follow-up punch with a growl of pain, his fire slowly climbing up onto his face in his anger. He sent a burst of flame in Itona's direction, forcing the other boy to dodge out of the way with a small frown of frustration as Todoroki moved to capitalize on his opening.

Elsewhere, Mineta kept his head low as he desperately avoided getting involved with any fight; he understood that his sticky balls wouldn't be much help when the opponents could cut through them with ease. "Why, why, why...?" he muttered to himself, bolting past Nakamura and Ashido as they fought, with the latter throwing acid at every opportunity while the latter proved to be agile enough to dodge and attack back. Suddenly, Mineta felt something tackle him to the side, making him yelp as he was thrown into a tree. He struggled to his feet, finding himself face-to-face with Okajima, who stretched his arms as he stared the dwarf-like hero down, throwing his rifle to the side.

"We didn't get to finish back in the field" he stated bluntly, smacking his palm with his fist as he pulled out his knife. Mineta screeched with fear as Okajima thrust his knife towards him, rolling out of the way and throwing two sticky balls at the assassin. Okajima only successfully cut through one, with the other landing on the underside of his arm, making the boy close the gap between it and his torso out of reflex, causing his arm to become pinned to his side.

"What the-?!" Okajima yelped, struggling to release his arm from the sticky substance as Mineta capitalized on his chance, running forward and leaping up to land a solid punch in Okajima's face, sending the other boy sprawling to the floor. Okajima spat out a tooth before using his knife to sever the sticky ball, freeing his arm in time to catch Mineta's follow-up kick, making the hero whimper in shock as Okajima, looking furious, threw a punch into his stomach, sending him flying across the battlefield.

Mineta continued flying past Aizawa and Karasuma, who were now engaged in fierce hand-to-hand, landing punch after kick after parry as they went blow for blow. Aizawa performed a spin kick in the air and forced his boot down on Karasuma, only for the latter to catch the heavy blow and throw the underground hero to the floor, making Aizawa catch himself and catch Karasuma's roundhouse kick. With a yell, Aizawa forcefully tackled Karasuma into the tree behind him, dazing the latter as the former followed up with several punches to his torso, before attempting to land a powerful blow into his face, only for Karasuma to finally regain his senses and catch the attack as it was only inches away from his head. He forced Aizawa back with a shout of effort, before bolting forwards and elbowing the man in the chest, winding Aizawa as Karasuma threw him back into the field.

Aizawa only just recovered his breath before he suddenly found himself rendered helpless, his limbs wrapped up in red tentacles as Koro-Sensei fended off other members of Class A at high speeds. "You made a mistake coming here, "Eraser Head"..." the octopus snarled, tightening his grip and making Aizawa let out a growl of pain. Koro-Sensei didn't increase his grip further, however; he instead held Aizawa in place as the Eraser Hero saw Karasuma running determinedly towards them, his face deadset on reaching the pair. Aizawa realised what the pair of teachers were planning and struggled to escape, but to no avail.

"Mr Aizawa!" Momo Yaoyorozu suddenly yelled, noticing her teacher in peril and bolting towards him, Creating a bo-staff as she ran and spinning it in her hands before delivering a swing that caused Koro-Sensei to jump back, releasing Aizawa in time to be able to catch Karasuma's attempted blow with his knee, throwing the agent's leg to the side before throwing a punch into his face, making Karasuma stumble. Before Aizawa could continue his assault, however, a bullet zipped past his face, almost hitting Yaoyorozu as it flew. Angered by the near miss the bullet had posed to his student, Aizawa whipped around and threw his scarf towards the approaching Irina, who only just ducked in time, but failed to successfully move fast enough as Present Mic flew in, looking determinedly at her.

"BACK OFF!" he yelled, and his Quirk amplified his voice to a level that caused Irina to be sent flying back from the waves, impacting a tree behind her with a yelp of pain. Aizawa sent Mic an annoyed yet grateful look as he turned his attention back to Karasuma, only to notice that other students were in danger. Itona was proving to be too much for Todoroki, whose reliance on his Quirk was failing to keep the former tentacle wielder at bay. Itona weaved and dodged through every attempted attack, sending several blows into Todoroki's face and causing the boy to retreat further and further, his body beginning to show signs of Quirk overuse.

"Hey, asshole!" a familiar angry voice called, and Itona looked up to see Bakugo flying down towards him, his arm outstretched and his face showing fury. "This is when you back off!" he yelled, sending an explosion down that forced Itona to retreat with a grimace as Todoroki recovered, his right side showing signs of his ice overuse. Aizawa let out a sigh of relief, only to suddenly be met with a sudden pain across his face as a fist impacted his cheek, sending him stumbling as Karma moved forward to attack again.

"Where's your Number One Hero now, huh?" the redhead asked, half-taunting and half-furious, dodging Aizawa's attempted roundhouse and countering with his own, sending a kick deep into Aizawa's stomach and winding him. Koro-Sensei sensed the opening and rushed forward, his skin a lighter shade of red as he saw the battle slowly beginning to turn in his students's favour; Terasaka had teamed up with Itona again to take on Bakugo and Todoroki together, with the pair proving to be a worthy fight for the prodigy duo, Kataoka had distracted Yaoyorozu and was now engaged in a fight with the Creation Hero to keep her eyes away from her teacher, Kurahashi and Okano were attempting to chase down Koda, who sent animal after animal at them, Maehara and Isogai had formed a tag team against Iida and Kaminari and were proving to be too much for the electric and speed heroes to handle, and last of all, Okajima had Mineta on the ropes, with the pair managing to look cool for the first time in their lives as Mineta dodged expertly around Okajima's strikes, but the strikes the latter did land proved to be strong and significant.

With all this logged in his head, Koro-Sensei bolted towards Karma and Aizawa, both of whom were now locked in a fight of martial arts to overpower the other. Karasuma, now fighting against Mic with Irina, turned and felt a sense of pride as he watched his students holding their own against these heroes; they had come a long way from being unable to hit him. Koro-Sensei finally closed the distance, grabbing Aizawa once more and flying up into the air, holding him tight as the battle raged on.

"You truly did make a mistake by coming here to attempt to kill me, my fellow educator" Koro-Sensei chuckled, showing Aizawa the fight below as he continued. "My students are no mere helpless civilians, you see. They are more than willing to fight for the right to claim my life and the bounty upon it".

"We... aren't here for any bounty..." Aizawa choked out, but Koro-Sensei failed to hear him as he tightened his grip on the hero teacher.

"I will give you one more chance to leave peacefully" the octopus offered. "No blood needs to be shed this day. My class has enough to see to in terms of repairs after this!"

"A hero... never surrenders to a villain..." Aizawa growled angrily, trying with all his might to free himself. Koro-Sensei merely gave a resigned sigh.

"Then I am afraid, Mr Aizawa... that you leave me and my students no choice, but to act in self-defe-"

"SMAAAASH!"

Aizawa heard the loud cry from above and instantly acted, shifting his body to leave Koro-Sensei wide open, leaving the octopus teacher shocked as a green blur came flying down from above, and a fist flew forward, impacting Koro-Sensei in the chest and sending him flying down to the ground, the force of the impact forcing the battle to stop as the students tried to keep their balance with yells of shock. Aizawa himself was released as Koro-Sensei was dealt this heavy blow, under threat of falling to the ground below until a hand flew out and grabbed his arm.

"Mr Aizawa, are you okay?" Izuku Midoriya asked urgently, floating down to the ground with his teacher and looking all over him with worry. Aizawa brushed himself off, winching at the pain he felt as he did so.

"I'm fine. Thank you, Deku" he responded, making Midoriya give a relieved smile, before this was quickly replaced with a set face of determination as he looked around at the battlefield. He saw how badly beaten Class A were, making his eyes widen.

"Everyone, go and find somewhere to recover!" he called, pointing towards the forest. "Me and All Might can handle this until you can fight again!"

"There is no way I'm gonna just let you steal the show, Deku!" Bakugo shouted angrily, but Todoroki suddenly grabbed his arm and pulled him away.

"Midoriya's right" he muttered to the explosive teen. "If we stay, we'll surely fall in our condition. We need to regroup and think of a plan".

Bakugo looked furious, snapping his head around to look at Deku as he was pulled away, determined not to let his longtime rival take the glory. However, the look on Deku's face caused Bakugo to pause.

Anger. Understanding that this was likely something he wouldn't want to see, Bakugo chose to accept his small loss and followed Todoroki into the trees, a snarl on his features as he disappeared into the greenery.

Within a single moment, Deku was suddenly left alone with Class E, and he glared around at them all as they prepared to enter a new fight. "I don't know any of you, and I wish it didn't have to come to this..." he said, sounding regretful. "But you hurt my friends, and you're all protecting a villain. I'm sorry, but I'm going to have to force you to submit".

"Like hell you are, broccoli head!" Terasaka yelled with anger, bolting forward and throwing a strike at Deku's head, only for the hero to instantly appear behind the brawnier teen and deliver a kick to his back, sending him flying before he landed on the ground in a heap fifteen feet away. "GRHGH- th-the hell?!" Terasaka choked, spitting out grass as the rest of Class E stared at Deku in shock.

"I reopen my previous offer, Class E" a familiar voice called from the trees, and everyone turned to see a hulking figure walking into the light; All Might, now wearing his Hercules Armour after retrieving it from elsewhere during his absence. "I implore you all to leave now, and let my students take this villain down".

"You're gonna have to take us all down first!" Maehara yelled back angrily. Everyone else in the assassin class shared this sentiment, as they resolutely stood their ground against Deku and All Might, daring them to try and take their teacher from them. Deku turned to All Might, and the teacher saw the desperation on his student's face; despite his anger at his friends being hurt, Midoriya truly did not want this fight, but he knew that he and Class A may not have a choice, which was a sentiment All Might shared wholeheartedly.

He didn't want to fight children, but they were standing against them of their own will, and they had hurt his students

"So this is your decision?" he asked at large, hoping against hope that the class would change their minds. Never-the-less, he began to fire up his armour, letting it power up as Karasuma stood up to his full height alongside Irina.

"It is our decision" he stated firmly. Class E instantly moved on his word, surrounding Deku and moving to attack him. All Might would have moved to help him, but he was suddenly caught off guard as Koro-Sensei blasted directly towards him, catching him and pulling the Symbol of Peace into the sky.

"I have heard many a former target of mine preach moral correctness to me before, my good man" the octopus stated, sounding reminiscent of the past before he let All Might go and delivered a strike that impacted the man's stomach. "What message can you share with me?"

All Might, winded, instantly retaliated, firing a Blackwhip cable at the killer teacher that wrapped around Koro-Sensei faster than he could react, much to Koro-Sensei's shock as the hero flew back up to meet him. "I'm past my time of preaching messages of peace and hope, Koro-Sensei. Now, I only fight to see my students succeed me!" He delivered a blow to Koro-Sensei's face that sent the octopus reeling back in pain, holding his head as All Might kept up this assault, sending a shock of electric currents through the cable he had previously fired.

"Blackwhip... and Chargebolt!" All Might shouted, watching as the electricity coursed through the cable and surrounded Koro-Sensei, causing the teacher immense pain as the hero came flying in to deliver another attack, pulling back his leg.

"Sugarman!" he cried. Koro-Sensei watched as All Might's armoured leg became equipped with a thruster, causing the hero's leg to fly up and kick him in the stomach, winding him. Becoming infuriated that this fight was preventing him from helping his students, Koro-Sensei recovered quickly, determined to put All Might down swiftly, only to be met with All Might rushing at him once again.

"Earphone Jack!" the hero bellowed, thrusting out his chest, and Koro-Sensei suddenly felt waves impact him in an instant, forcing him to fly back as his body was vibrated to its very core. Letting out a shout of anger, the octopus blasted at All Might, catching him in the stomach and flying across the sky, his tentacles striking the hero in multiple areas with such speed that All Might couldn't react to fast enough.

Meanwhile, on the ground, Class E were finding themselves outmatched against Deku; their attempts to incapacitate or even injure the young hero all came up fruitless, as Midoriya moved with inconceivable speed and agility to avoid every last one, green lightning coursing across his form as he dodged while occasionally sending out strikes at the assassins to slowly give him more room to act. Karma gave a growl as his newest attempt was met with this same result, and found himself on the receiving end of a punch to the chest from Deku that sent him stumbling back.

'Dammit... if we don't coordinate right, we're never gonna beat this guy...' he thought to himself, watching as Deku swept his leg and forced all of his attackers back.

"Please, let's just discuss this!" the hero pleaded, still desperate to find a peaceful solution despite what had already transpired, but he was only met with more attempted attacks that caused him to dodge once more, which only served to slowly diminish his hope of ending this clash peacefully. "I don't want to hurt any of you! Please, just stay back and let me and my friends hel-"

"You might as well shut your mouth" Terasaka growled, making Deku look at the brawny teen as he dodged an attempted strike. "Your explosive pal blew up our building! Any chance of us hearing you scumbags out went up in flames with it!"

Deku reeled from this revelation. Bakugo had done what?! It had to have been an accident; Kaachan would never outright destroy property like that. However, he realised that Class E likely wouldn't accept that excuse. With a grunt of effort, he blasted into the sky above, dodging the assassin students's gunfire as he turned his attention towards the clearing in the distance. Sure enough, he spotted the charred remains of what had been the E classroom, and understood then and there.

This day would not end until one class was forced to give in.

With a sigh of resignation, Deku charged his body with 20% of One For All, the green lightning strengthening around him before he performed a flip in the air and rocketed towards the ground, his leg outstretched.

"MANCHESTER... SMAAAASH!" he shouted, planting his heel into the ground in the direct centre of the surrounding assassins, sending a wave of power through the ground and blasting Class E back, all of them being sent flying off of their feet with yells of shock and pain upon landing on the ground. As Deku stood up straight from this attack, an echoing blow sounded from above, making Midoriya look up and quickly dodge with a yelp as Koro-Sensei rocketed down to the ground, impacting the grass with a shout of pain. All Might landed a small distance away with a THOOM, looking straight at the octopus teacher.

"We wish to preserve your lives, Class E" he stated with a guilty tone. "Your insistence will be your downfall. We implore you to stand down".

Isogai rolled over in pain, only just feeling the vibration in his pocket that caused him to pull out his phone. "R-Ritsu?" he said weakly, recognising the girl on his phone screen, who looked shocked to see her friends in such a damaged state.

"Isogai! I have the info we need! Try and get some distance so we can coordinate!" she revealed in a panic, accidentally making herself heard to Deku.

"Wait, what is-?" he began, but Koro-Sensei managed to reach his full height once more, his skin flashing between red and black as he glared at the pair of heroes.

"You heroes aren't the only ones... who can gather intel on their enemies" he stated coldly, before rapidly spinning on the spot, instantly forming a tornado that blinded Deku and All Might, causing them to cover their eyes, and try to fight through the sudden weather pattern. Deku let out a yell and threw out a punch that dispersed the winds, but he was too late; Class E had vanished without a trace, leaving him and All Might alone as the clouds in the sky began to darken. Movement sounded to the side of them.

"Hey! We're ready to go again!" Bakugo shouted, his grin back on his face as the rest of Class A reappeared from the greenery. However, they all stopped upon seeing that they were alone. "Where the hell did they go?!" Bakugo yelled, sounding angry as he whipped his head this way and that.

"They've disappeared to strategise" Deku replied, addressing the class at large. "We have to find them now!"

"Good luck with that".

The voice was nothing more than a hiss to the heroes, and yet it was heard by every ear, causing a sudden cold that wasn't there. Class A looked around frantically, trying to find where the sensation was originating from, but they found nothing but the trees and bushes surrounding them. Ojiro, Jiro, Koda and Sato all gathered together in a group, looking around while trying to stay calm.

Deku and Bakugo instantly spotted the shadow above the four before it had even touched down.

"MOVE!" they both yelled, but it proved a vain attempt; a sudden explosion of red was sent flying up as the shadow landed directly in the centre of the group, slicing Jiro and Sato's chests and sending a hail of bullets up Koda's and Ojiro's bodies, making all four of them bleed profusely as they fell to the ground with a yell. Everyone else in Class A entered battle stances as the new figure stood up, pulling down their hood to reveal a shock of long blue hair.

"I'll warn you all once, and once only" Nagisa Shiota stated bluntly to the surrounding heroes, his eyes flashing with a glint of murderous intent. "Keep up this fight, and I will not hesitate to put any of you down".

No one spoke for a moment, before Bakugo gave an attempt at a hearty laugh. "Oh yeah?! YOU'RE gonna take us all on?!" he snorted, explosions flashing on his hands as he looked at Nagisa with a cocky eye. "Word of advice, pretty girl... we never admit defeat! A hero is someone who fights to the end!"

"'Hero'?" Nagisa asked, turning to Bakugo and causing the blonde teen to recoil slightly, his confidence slightly buckling beneath the other boy's glare. "From what I've seen from all of you... you're anything but heroic". With that, the blue-haired teen suddenly jumped up again, grabbing hold of a tree branch and swinging into the foliage and out of sight. For a few seconds, no one moved, with even Bakugo seemingly frozen from shock at what he had just heard. Small groans from the ground snapped them out of it, however, as the four victims of Nagisa's attack stirred and attempted to get up.

"Guys, stay still! Let us help!" Deku said quickly, moving forward to help Jiro to her feet, while others moved to help the other three.

"Well, I'm with Deku!" Bakugo shouted. "We need to find those bastards and their stupid teacher now! I've just about run out of gripes with taking them down, even if they're just kids!"

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

Class E hid together within the ruins of their classroom, keeping their heads down as Isogai held up his phone so that everyone could hear their AI classmate. Ritsu was currently showing classified files that she had found on the heroes.

"I found these from the servers at a school named "UA High" through tracking the name Dynamight" she explained. "Measuring from what you've all told me, I can confirm that you are all facing Class 1-A from that very school".

"So these guys have been trained to fight, just like us..." Sugaya moaned, rubbing his arm while wincing. "But they seem to have Quirks. We don't have that kind of strength to stand up against them".

"True, but we can still exploit their weaknesses" Ritsu elaborated, making Class E lean in closer. "After all, Quirks are like muscles. You can't use them endlessly. I'd even say you guys were close to beating them until the heroes Deku and All Might appeared".

"So they're the main threat" a new voice suddenly joined the group, making everyone jump as a boy with long blue hair leant forward; Nagisa grimaced as he read through the files on Isogai's screen, looking significantly better in physical health than the ragged Class E did. He was still shaken from his actions a few moments prior (he'd just faced down a class of superheroes and threatened their lives, give him a break), but didn't let it show on his face as he read through the extensive information on-screen. "Wait... it says here that Midoriya guy's Quirk is just 'Super Power'" he said in confusion. Everyone blinked.

"'Super Power'?" Karma scoffed, before wincing from the pain in his arm. "What, is his Quirk just the ability to overpower anyone he wants?"

"No...something's not right here" Nagisa stated bluntly. "There's something more to that Deku guy. I know it".

"Well, as you are now, you haven't got a hope of beating either him OR All Might" Ritsu said regretfully, reappearing over the files and giving Nagisa a desperate look. "Even Koro-Sensei wouldn't stand a chance in the end!"

“Says here that All Might guy is Quirkless” Karma mused, reading the former hero’s file. “It’s that suit that’s making him a threat. Take that out and he’s a sitting duck, leaving just that Midoriya guy to take down”.

"So what's the plan?!" Terasaka asked impatiently, throwing his arms wide. "We're not just gonna give this up! Koro-Sensei's OUR kill! We can't just let some 'heroes' do our job!"

Everyone nodded fervently, Koro-Sensei included. "I can state with certainty that I would never willingly let myself be killed by any other souls than the ones within this class" he stated firmly. Ritsu listened to these proclamations, and gave a small cough to catch everyone's attention once more.

"If we're looking for ANY possible ideas..." she said slowly. "I might have an idea".

"Please explain, Ritsu" Nagisa offered, looking as though he'd just had new hope kindled in his heart. Ritsu looked hesitant.

"I've been working on a device that could empower any human being within a one kilometre radius with the abilities, arsenals, and power of their multiversal variants" she explained. "However, I've only ever tested it once on myself, and using it now would mean that Class A would also be within the blast zone, giving them the same effect".

"Our multiversal selves?" Karasuma asked, sounding put out. "Ritsu, are you sure this is a safe option?"

"In terms of that, it IS perfectly safe!" Ritsu said quickly. "The only real danger is that... well, I have no way of telling what kind of powers you will all receive due to this transformation. You'll all also get the experience and training in how to use these abilities, but again, there's no telling what will happen once I activate it".

"So the danger here is that one of us could just have a variant that happens to be a god-like being in terms of power?" Karma scoffed, hitching his trademark smirk back onto his face as he leaned against Nagisa, who looked bemusedly at his friend. Ritsu nodded.

"That's exactly it, yes" she replied, making Karma's eyes widen. "And again, if I use it now, Class A would receive the same effects, meaning they would receive a power boost too".

"So it's a game of chance if we could be boosted higher than them..." Koro-Sensei muttered, placing a tentacle to his chin and thinking hard.

"Like I said, I-" Ritsu began, but suddenly, an explosion flew over the class's heads, making them yell out.

"HEY! I FOUND THEM!" Bakugo yelled out, running across the field towards the burnt remains of the E classroom, his face lit up by his explosions. Class E took one look out at the field as Class A suddenly appeared, running out from the trees with Deku and All Might in the lead, before instantly turning to Ritsu with a determined look.

"We're gonna have to take that chance, Ritsu!" Nagisa said with a firm tone. Ritsu nodded.

"Alright, but remember, there's probably no going back!" she said loudly, before her form suddenly began to glow bright white on the screen, engulfing Isogai's phone before growing outwards, covering Class E entirely. Outside of the destroyed building, Bakugo suddenly yelled out as the light expanded rapidly, engulfing him as it continued to speed towards the approaching Class A, who all stopped and yelled as the light covered them all. Deku attempted to escape the wall of light by firing Blackwhip behind him and pulling himself into the trees, but he too found himself covered in the white light.

For a few moments, there was nothing but white; even sound had been removed from the world as the void enveloped the world. Then, as quickly as it had arrived, the light died away, revealing the mountain once more and allowing Deku to open his eyes cautiously. He noticed the rest of his friends on the ground and leapt down, frightened that they might have been hurt. As he did so, however, he felt something on his chest that made him look down in surprise.

He was shocked to find what looked to be a white device strapped to his chest; complex in design, it pulsed with energy in its centre and sent waves of energy through Midoriya's body. He only had to ask himself what this device could possibly be for a split-second before a voice in his brain answered him.

"A... Chronal Accelerator?" he asked in brief confusion. The voice in his head then fully explained the device's capabilities and weaknesses, much to Midoriya's surprise. He looked around, and saw that his friends had been similarly augmented; it were as though the light had empowered the class to a level far beyond what they were before.

"What on Earth is this?!" Uraraka yelped in shock, and Deku turned to see his friend holding what looked like an over-designed ray gun. "Wait... what the heck is a Mediblaster...?"

"You're all getting this weird stuff too?" Kirishima asked, turning to look at the pair, who nodded together. "Yeah, something's just happened to us thanks to that light. Check this!" With that, the Sturdy Hero summoned an ACTUAL pistol from nowhere into his hand, making everyone around him yell in alarm. "Relax, I'm not gonna shoot anyone here with it! For some reason, I feel like... like I've been trained in how to use it perfectly".

"You don't just gain perfect gun training in an instant!" Aizawa stated furiously. Deku felt two weights on his sides and looked down, only to be given a shock as he spotted two identical pistols strapped to his legs. He pulled them out and examined them; the voice in his head called them "Pulse Pistols". All around the class, the results were relatively the same; most of the students inexplicably felt much stronger, with even the students Nagisa had attacked previously feeling as though the attack had never occurred, and a select few now had the power to summon brand new weaponry. All Might drew his attention away from the giant sword he had just called to his hand and looked over to where the ruined E classroom had once stood.

His eyes widened in shock.

"You wanna take our teacher from us, assholes?!" Terasaka bellowed, standing atop a ruined desk with Muramatsu and Yoshida at his sides. "Fine, then! Come and take him!" Class A stared as they spotted what was in front of them; Class 3-E, standing tall amongst the ruins of their classroom, all of them now adorned with an identical cape with a golden clasp on top of their PE uniforms, with each clasp being engraved with the letter "E". Koro-Sensei rose from the rubble, his face adorned with green stripes as he stood tall, his teaching hat now sporting four brand new spikes around it's circumference.

"Very well then, heroes!" he called proudly. "We shall see which class truly stands tall in the race to claim my life!" With that, Class E acted, moving as one as they all jumped out of the building ruins, only this time, they did away with their firearms in favour of spawning fire and lightning from their hands, sending fireballs and lightning strikes towards their foes, forcing Class A to dodge out of the way in shock.

"Where the hell did they get Quirks from?!" Kaminari asked in shocked fear. Aizawa instantly acted, his eye gleaming red as he glared at the assassins, only to find it had no effect.

"Wait... no, those aren't Quirks!" the teacher called out in shock. Class A only had a second to register this before they were met with Class E closing the distance once more, only this time, they attacked with much more power and ferocity. They had pulled real swords from nowhere, and were now striking with their new blades in the heroes's direction.

"Olay, don't panic!" Iida called, only just ducking a sword swipe from Isogai as he thought quickly. "We also have new weaponry at our disposal! Utilise your new abilities, Class 1-A!"

It was Uraraka who managed to follow this order first; as Kayano darted towards her, she suddenly felt a rush of energy enter her arms, allowing her to summon a weapon she had never seen in her life; something that could only be described as a pickaxe, it's design themed after her hero costume. Without pausing to think, Uraraka swung this pickaxe out to meet Kayano's sword, meeting the blade in the middle and stopping Kayano in her tracks. The girls both stood for a second, both surprised at the weapon's sudden appearance. Uraraka recovered first, however, pulling the axe back and striking against Kayano's blade with a look of flaming determination.

"Bring it on, then!" she yelled out, engaging in a duel with Kayano that caused the two to split off and move away from the main fight. The rest of Class A acted on this, inspired by Uraraka, and quickly found their own unique abilities; Kirishima found that he could form giant fists out of his Hardened rock state, which he put to use to engage in a new fight with Terasaka. Todoroki discovered the power to summon two blades on each hand, formed of fire and ice on his left and right, which he used to clash with Itona once more. All Might was met with Koro-Sensei once again as the teacher sped towards him, moving much faster than before and carrying different elements in each tentacle. All Might raised his giant sword and swung it in front of him with ease; his Hercules Armour proved well-equipped to be able to wield this new weapon of his. He clashed with Koro-Sensei, sending fireballs at him, deflecting the flames away into the trees.

Deku himself found himself newly empowered by the Chronal Accelerator on his chest; he discovered that he was able to control his own time flow, allowing him to move his own physical form forwards or backwards in time while everyone else remained in the same state. He darted across the battlefield, attacking everyone he could with his punches without grievously harming anyone. No one was able to strike him in retaliation due to his speed, allowing Deku to remain unharmed through the fight.

A sudden shot flew past Deku's face, forcing him to turn to look as he saw Uraraka and Kayano clashing, the latter throwing away an emptied pistol. Uraraka spun her Uravity Axe in her hands and swung upwards with power, sending Kayano's sword flying away and embedding it into the ground at a distance too far for Kayano to reach. "Please surrender!" Uraraka pleaded, holding Kayano at bladepoint with her pickaxe. "There's nothing heroic about harming innocent people!"

"Good thing we're anything but, then!" Kayano retaliated, smacking the pickaxe away and slamming a fist onto a small rectangular object on her wrist. Uraraka watched in shock as a giant black hammer formed from the device, becoming solid enough for Kayano to grab a hold of and swing into Uraraka's torso, winding the heroine and sending her flying back. Deku moved instantly, using Fa Jin to blast towards his friend and catch her before Uraraka got seriously hurt. He put her down and stood before Kayano, who steadied her new God Arc with a look of determination.

"I'm not sure what you or your friends have been through..." Deku stated, before he felt an energy pulse surge into his hands, causing Blackwhip to activate of its own accord and spin into a solid form akin to an axe similar in size to Uraraka's. "But I can't allow you to hurt my friend!"

Kayano watched as the pair of heroes readied their weapons, considering her options. She could fight them both, but she didn't fare well when fighting alone against multiple foes. She could try to regroup with the others? That certainly seemed plausible, but would Deku and Uraraka allow that?

As the greenette remained in thought, Uraraka took her chance, rushing forward and swinging her pickaxe upwards, catching Kayano off-guard and making her eyes widen as the head of the axe came flying towards her; her hammer was too heavy to lift in time to block!

Just as the head's tip was about to enter Kayano's eye, a sudden blur flew in from nowhere, catching the pickaxe and forcing it into Uraraka's chest, winding her and sending her flying back into Deku, who caught her instantly without even being forced to step back. The three students blinked as Nagisa landed in front of Kayano, spinning what looked to be a long black scythe around his body before swinging it downwards in a threatening motion; his own God Arc, identical in material to Kayano's.

"Kayano, are you okay?" the blue-haired teen asked urgently, turning to look at the young actress, who nodded silently, moving forward to stand beside her friend as Deku helped Uraraka up. "Let me make this clear" Nagisa said firmly, tightening his grip on his God Arc, causing Kayano to do the same. "I don't want to hurt either of you. Just tell me this... is there any chance left of being able to talk things through?"

Deku looked around at this, desperate to be able to answer 'yes' to Nagisa's question. He saw Bakugo flying on his explosions as he battled Karma, who seemed to be having the time of his life as he hurled a fireball in the explosive teen's direction. Deku turned his eyes towards the rest of the field; Aoyama was battling with Hazama, and it was difficult for Deku to say who was winning. Ashido slid past with rapid speed, throwing acid with grunts of effort towards Nakamura, who deflected the projectiles with her sword and countered with her magic, firing lightning towards Ashido and forcing the hero to dodge. The teachers were once again caught in a lock; Aizawa was struggling against Karasuma's newfound might with his sword, Mic seemed to be holding his own against Irina's magic, and All Might and Koro-Sensei were nowhere to be seen.

Deku turned back to Nagisa, who looked pleadingly back at the hero-in-training. "Come on, please tell me there's a chance!" he begged, his grip on his God Arc being so tight that it seemed to be struggling in his hands. Deku took a final look around... before sighing in defeat, and shaking his head with a sad finality.

"I'm sorry... but I think the chance for peaceful talks were ripped up a long while ago" he stated guiltily. Nagisa looked as though he had just had his heart shattered as Kayano and Uraraka readied themselves again. "We will defeat the villain..." Deku added, letting One For All course through him as his face returned to an expression of grim determination. "...even if we have to defeat you too!"

Nagisa finally gave a resigned sigh. "In that case... we'll let things get real" he said sadly, before spinning his God Arc around him and bolting forward, followed instantly by Kayano as Deku and Uraraka braced themselves. Nagisa's scythe clashed with Deku's Blackwhip Axe before the blue-haired boy spun his weapon around, grinding the blade against Deku's axe and forcing the hero to slide back as Midoriya struggled against the power and speed of Nagisa's strikes. Uraraka, thinking quickly, swung out with her own weapon and sent Nagisa flying back, but this left her open to an attack from Kayano, who swung her hammer around her and landed the head, hard, into Uraraka's shoulder.

Deku heard a strong CRACK as the hammer made contact, and his fears were confirmed when Uraraka let out a cry of agony as she was sent rocketing across the field into a tree, sliding down it and staying there. "URARAKA!" the boy yelled, instantly feeling his anger rise up as he spun around and charged at Kayano, moving fast enough to catch the girl unawares and land a strong punch into her face, sending her flying into the greenery on the other side of the field. Nagisa watched this with shock, before he immediately moved to attack Midoriya himself, his scythe swinging downwards to meet Deku's axe as the two locked eyes, both glaring at each other with fury, before they broke apart and began attacking each other at high speed.

Uraraka recovered slowly, getting up with sluggish movements as she pulled out the Mediblaster with her good arm, aiming it at herself and pulling the trigger. The bullets impacted her skin, instantly giving her a rush of recovery as she let out a sigh of relief, before giving a yelp as her arm cricked back into place. On the opposite end of the field, Kayano was also getting up, though she looked better off than her Zero Gravity opponent. The two girls watched as their friends duelled at speeds most would consider incomprehensible, their eyes widening at the display. Nagisa's God Arc cut through the air like a butter knife, clashing against Deku's axe with power and speed, while Deku had adapted to both swinging the axe and attacking with his legs, his feet sweeping through the sky as Nagisa barely dodged the strikes.

Finally, Deku successfully caught Nagisa out; he aimed a kick at the assassin with his leg, before activating his Chronal Accelerator, causing him to rewind a few seconds, much to Nagisa's shock as the hero instead pulled back his fist.

"DETROOOOOOOIT.... SMAAAAAAAAAASH!" Midoriya cried, driving his fist into Nagisa's stomach with enough power to make the smaller boy cough up blood, before he was sent flying backwards into the trees, flying into the greenery and out of sight. Kayano instantly moved to see if Nagisa was okay, only to be cut off by a fully-recovered Uraraka, who aimed her Mediblaster at the green-haired girl and fired, forcing Kayano to move and dodge as Deku, now satisfied with the knowledge that Uraraka was okay, blasted into the sky again to try and take down the rest of Class E.

Elsewhere, yet another explosion rang out as Karma flew out of the yellow and orange pulse that had just missed him once more, smirking downwards to where Bakugo was heatedly pursuing him, his expression completely livid.

"GET BACK HERE, YOU RED-HAIRED BASTARD!" he screamed up towards his foe, who dodged yet another punch and retaliated with his own kick, driving his foot into Bakugo's abdomen and forcing the boy to cough hard.

"Your wish is my command~!" Karma replied in a taunting tone, before pulling Bakugo close to him and planting both his hands into the boy's chest. Lightning suddenly sparked from the redhead's hands, charging his palms with enough power for him to power them into Bakugo's chest, sending the explosive teen flying to the ground with a THOOM.

"AGH! DAMMIT!" Bakugo roared, instantly leaping to his feet again and whipping around wildly for any sign of Karma. A finger tap on his shoulder made him turn around, only to be met with a punch to the face from the redhead, making Bakugo stumble as Karma pressed his advantage. Bakugo, however, had wisened up to this trick since the first time Karma used it; he backhanded the taller boy's arm away, before delivering an uppercut to Karma's stomach and setting off an explosion directly into his torso. Karma felt the blow burn at his skin, but refused to show that it had affected him in front of Bakugo, instead merely forcing a cocky smile and planting his foot into the ground, sending a wave of earth across the mountain and carrying Bakugo with it, disorienting him long enough for Karma to send a blast of ice in his direction, incapacitating him before he was thrown against a tree with a yell of pain, the ice shattering as he was sent flying into the bushes.

"Nice job, hero!" Karma called tauntingly, walking across the field while casually dodging a sticky ball thrown by Mineta. "In only twenty minutes, you've done everything that I'd expect from a villain. You're telling me that you're meant to be the next generation of inspirations?" The redhead looked down his nose towards where Bakugo was. "Consider me thoroughly uninspired".

"Don't you DARE MOCK ME!" Bakugo screamed, his explosions firing off and forcing Karma to roll out of the way as the greenery seemed to begin to burn around him. The redhead could only stare in shock as Bakugo reappeared, riding what appeared to be an actual dragon, with the creature in question sending a pillar of fire into the sky with a roar. Bakugo himself grinned as he directed the dragon towards Karma, whose smile had vanished, having been replaced with an uncertain scowl as he was forced on the defensive.

Bakugo's dragon proved to be a major player in the battle, with it not only posing a threat to Karma, but to the rest of Class E, as Bakugo commanded his steed across the field, directing the creature to slash at his foes and send fire towards those who dodged. Class A were forced to retreat as the explosive boy continued his crusade, looking shocked.

"Okay, where did Bakugo get THAT from?!" Kaminari asked, looking worse for wear; his Quirk had proven completely useless against Class E's uniforms, and he had been having a hard time staying in the fight up to this point. The rest of the hero class were forced to consider.

"It could be another weapon that Bakugo alone received thanks to that light we were caught by earlier" Iida estimated. "It's likely that some of us now have more exclusive powers and arsenals than others. It would explain the dragon's sudden appearance and why it seemingly only obeys Bakugo exclusively".

"Either way, Kaachan should be careful!" Deku said worriedly, watching as Class E teamed up to avoid the dragon and try to take it down. "We're only here to take down the octopus villain, but one of those kids could get seriously hurt if he doesn't restrain himself!"

"Midoriya, WE could get seriously hurt if we DO restrain ourselves!" Aizawa snapped, landing next to the boy and making him yelp. "These kids aren't just fighting us, they intend to KILL us. If we don't fight back, they assuredly will do so. So I must ask you all, just this once... to feel unrestricted. Give them everything you have, or there's a chance that you might not live to see tomorrow!"

Class A stared in shock at their teacher's unusually emotional announcement, before they were deafened by an ear-splitting cry as Bakugo's dragon was slashed from all sides. Bakugo tried his best to guide his steed, but saw from a mile away that it was a lost cause. As Karma's sword came down, the explosive hero blasted away, turning away as the dragon's throat was slashed, sending it falling lifelessly to the ground as he landed next to his classmates.

"Dammit... I thought that would be enough!" he snarled, looking exhausted as his arms seemed to shake. "I haven't got much more in me... anyone else got any ideas?"

"We need time to recover. Here!" Koda said, holding up his arms and summoning a swarm of birds above his head. He sent this cloud of feathered allies towards Class E, blinding them and causing yells of shock and frustration as Koda led his friends into the trees. A few seconds later, a fireball flew up, dispersing the birds as Karasuma stood tall, his hand aloft and his expression murderous. A second later, a blur of yellow and silver flew down from above into the ground, causing Class E to hold up their arms as Koro-Sensei picked up All Might from the floor, before hurling him away across the field as the man gave a shout of pain. Koro-Sensei, looking bruised and exhausted, panted before turning to his students with concern.

"Is everyone alright?" he asked urgently, looking at each of them. "I'm sorry I was so absent from the fight, I had to deal with the armoured hero".

"ALL MIGHT!" Deku's frantic voice cried out as the boy himself bolted out of the shadows to land next to his mentor, looking terrified as he examined All Might's condition; his armour looked to be damaged and slowly wearing down from burns due to fire and lightning, but for the most part, he seemed mostly unharmed, though he struggled to stand as Deku helped him up.

"I'm alright... young Midoriya" the hero coughed, placing a hand on his chest, the armour there having been cracked by a blow from Koro-Sensei moments ago. He stood to face the united class of assassins, all of whom seemed to be beginning to tire, as Koro-Sensei stared him down.

"Our little school duel seems to be at a stalemate, All Might" the octopus stated aloud, which caused his students to... look disappointed? All Might was taken aback; did they seek absolute victory? Just what had they been through under this monster's tutelage?

"A stalemate in this moment, Koro-Sensei, but one that will not last" the Symbol of Peace replied with stalwart belief. "I do believe that young Midoriya here is more than capable of turning the tide". Deku looked up at All Might in surprise, who gave him a reassuring glance in response.

"It's a trick!" Irina's voice called out, one eye closed as she nursed what looked to be a broken arm. "That kid may be strong, but fighting him would only buy the rest of them time to recover!"

"My thoughts precisely" Karasuma agreed, eyes narrowed as he brushed down his ruined suit. All Might, however, looked offended.

"You think I would send my student to fight alone?!" he asked, genuinely angry. "A hero never fights alone, and Midoriya knows that too well. Class 1-A!" On the hero's calling, the hero class reappeared, still looking just as tattered and exhausted as before, but trusting in their teacher's words. "This class stands as one! To fight alone is to fight an impossible war against evil and fear! Fear induced by you, Koro-Sensei!" The hero pointed at the octopus at this, and Koro-Sensei actually seemed to look ashamed. "Causing so much chaos and fear with your actions, training children to be killers... and you had the gall to claim to be a mere teacher in our fight?!"

Koro-Sensei said nothing, and Class E actually stared at him as the teacher seemed to shiver where he stood. Deku then stood, staring at Koro-Sensei with firm eyes.

"I know you may believe that what you're doing is right... and your students may have genuinely learned something under you..." he said loudly, catching the octopus's attention. "But I believe that you ultimately cause more harm than good. You simply being this class's teacher results in them constantly being put in danger, and that's morally wrong. There's no way to justify that, no matter what angle you see it from!"

"How about you try a mirror?" a voice shouted from the trees. Everyone turned to see Nagisa standing there, finally re-entering the fight after his sudden disappearance earlier, tossing something in his hand behind him into the bushes. Deku seemed to have been caught off-guard by the other boy's words.

"W-what?" he asked, bewildered. Nagisa gave a sigh as he walked forward. Everyone suddenly became aware of the sudden shift in the atmosphere as the blue-haired teen began to move towards his heroic counterpart, with every face shifting to shocked confusion.

"You said that Koro-Sensei's presence here invites danger onto us, right?" Nagisa asked calmly. Deku nodded. "Then answer me this... how is that any different to your class and All Might?"

Deku opened his mouth to speak, then stopped. He turned to All Might, who also seemed to have had his ability to speak taken from him. Nagisa continued.

"His very existence as the Symbol of Peace is a rallying call for villains across the world. Him becoming a teacher must have caused you all to be put in danger more than once, right? In that regard, how is his situation any different from Koro-Sensei's in this class?"

"All... All Might doesn't train us to kill!" Deku argued, but Nagisa gave a short bark of mirthless laughter.

"Doesn't he?" he asked. The ground beneath Nagisa's feet began to shake, with specks of dirt beginning to fly into the air as the air around the area seemed to thicken. "He trains you all to fight against deadly threats. He nurtures you into perfect weapons against fear, when a world without fear would be a world without caution. How are his teachings any less dangerous than what Koro-Sensei teaches us?"

"Shut the hell up, drama queen!" Bakugo shouted from where he stood, catching Nagisa's attention. "If you think our class are hypocrites, why not put your money where your mouth is?! Fight us, and prove us wrong!"

Nagisa stopped, staring at Bakugo with stern eyes. The stare was held for so long that Bakugo actually began to feel apprehensive. Then, after about a minute... the smaller boy smiled.

"Sure... why not? This fight has to become a clash of morals?" He held out his hand to his side, his fingers outstretched. "Then let's see who's words stand stronger".

Nagisa slammed his fist into his chest, and Class A were forced to block their eyes as a blinding white light erupted from the boy. Class E understood that this was their hint to engage once more, and charged forward with newfound resolution. The light dissipated, allowing the heroes to see their opposing class about to clash with them again. All Might instantly acted.

"Class 1-A!" he called, his voice recalling its deep booming tone from the hero's glory days. "Today, we do not fight to just defeat a villain. Today... we fight for the very ideals of heroism! Show them why you are all called heroes! Go Beyond!"

"PLUS ULTRA!" Class A shouted as one, and rushed forwards to engage with the assassin class once more. All Might turned to Deku, who still seemed uncertain.

"Do not let your beliefs be altered by this encounter, young Midoriya" he soothed, placing a hand on Deku's shoulder to comfort him. "My presence may well be a focal point to this class... but you are that danger's counter".

"Right... alright!" Deku replied, clenching his fist and letting his Quirk charge into it. "Let's do this!" He bolted forwards, looking around, his heart hammering. All Might was a hero... he never meant to put his students in danger! That's why he was training them at all!

A sudden fist blocked Deku's path, impacting his face and sending him crashing to the ground as Nagisa eyed him with a frown. "Next time, don't get caught up in the debate" he said dryly. Deku got to his feet, beginning to feel angry that the other boy was pushing his moral code this far.

"What are you trying to prove with this argument?" he asked, deliberately trying to keep himself calm as he stood in a battle-ready stance. "That heroes are hypocrites? I learned that lesson a while ago".

"Then you can understand that assassins are just the same" Nagisa replied instantly, making Deku's eyes widen in shock... quickly followed by fury. He gave a shout of anger and flew at the blunet, who blocked and sent another punch into Deku's torso, making him cough up a few drops of blood as he tried to swing his leg out to kick his opponent. Nagisa stepped back with enough speed to catch Deku off-guard, the former even having his hands in his pockets as he dodged.

"Assassins and heroes are NOTHING alike!" Deku shouted, flying forward and swinging his fist at Nagisa's head, only for the boy to lean back and cause the blow to fly above him before he quickly moved his body forward to headbutt Midoriya in the face with speed that the hero couldn't react to, causing a loud CRACK as the shorter boy's head impacted Deku's nose, smashing it into his skull and causing blood to spurt out. Deku stumbled back with a yell of pain, clutching his face as Nagisa stood ready for the next attack.

'He's so fast... he wasn't this fast before... what happened?!' Deku thought frantically, understanding that something had changed within Nagisa as the blunet chose to go on the offensive, bolting forward and landing a forceful palm into Deku's chest, sending him flying back and making him slide across the grass.

SPEED: 99999

Deku thought desperately of ways to combat Nagisa's newfound speed, countering the other boy's attacks as best as he could while he tried to think of a strategy. Within his mind, a voice echoed out, advising the hero in the heat of the moment.

'Build up to his level. Get some distance and build up some energy' Bruce's voice echoed in Deku's head. Midoriya instantly acted upon this advice, throwing Nagisa's fist aside with enough force to blindside him and blasting away into the air, before he began to move his limbs as fast as he could. He spun his arms in the air, kicked out with his legs, and bent backwards and forwards as fast as his body would allow. Within his body, Deku felt the familiar build-up of kinetic energy as he continued his movements.

"Third... Fa Jin...!" he spoke the words loudly, alerting Nagisa that the hero was trying a new strategy. However, Deku then grabbed his arm, and moved it as if he were locking it into place. "And Second... Gearshift...!"

'Wait, Ninth!' Kudo's voice called out in his head. 'Doing that could incapacitate you!'

'I need to win!' Deku shouted back mentally. 'My friends are in danger... so I will move to help them as best as I can!'

"Assassins... and heroes... will NEVER be the same!" Midoriya shouted angrily, before he suddenly shot forwards, moving many times faster than sound as he rocketed at Nagisa, whose eyes widened as he dodged the rapid punches that came flying towards him. Deku kept this attack up, bolting at Nagisa at an equivalent speed as Nagisa dodged and blocked every attack, though it was clear that the smaller boy was only just keeping up.

The pair flew across the mountain, nearly crashing into several of their friends as they threw attacks back and forth. Koro-Sensei yelped as the pair flew by him, nearly distracting him enough for All Might to land a blow into his face, but the octopus just evaded the attack in time. "N-Nagisa?!" he called in shock, utterly caught off guard by the sheer speed at which his student and his opponent were moving. All Might smiled with pride as he watched Deku fight his enemy, giving a genuine laugh that made Koro-Sensei stare at him.

"That boy's made me more proud than I've ever been in my life" he stated simply, making Koro-Sensei pause. Proud? Of the green-haired boy? That must imply a deep connection between the two... just like his own with his own students.

The octopus gave a genuine chuckle, making All Might blink at him. "Truly, it is the highest pride to see your students succeed".

All Might stared, before he smiled. "At last, we agree on something!" he announced, throwing a fresh attack at the assassin teacher, who blocked with a yelp of shock before trying to counter with his own strike.

Karma and Bakugo, in the midst of their own duel, couldn't help but watch in shocked awe as their best friends went head-to-head. "Huh... never thought the bastard had it in him to go this far in a fight" Bakugo snorted, throwing an explosion at Karma as he watched Deku and Nagisa fly into the sky, trading blows at speeds that even Koro-Sensei couldn't perceive.

"It makes you think, huh?" Karma asked, his tone serious as he slid under the explosive projectile and kneed Bakugo in the stomach. "You never expect the kind ones to be the real monsters".

Deku finally landed a strong blow, thrusting his fist into Nagisa's chest and swinging him round with a scream of fury. "TEXAAAAAAAAAASSS... SMAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAASH!" he bellowed, throwing his fist forward and sending Nagisa flying into the ground with a THOOM that rocked the mountain and even the city surrounding it. Windows shattered across Kunugigaoka as the public panicked and ran from the tremors that echoed from the mountaintop.

Deku remained aloft in the air thanks to Float, feeling his body cry out from the pain of combining Gearshift and Fa Jin the way he had just done. In his mind, the Vestiges scolded him.

‘If you try that again, Ninth, you could cripple yourself permanently' Yoichi Shigaraki warned, watching from behind Deku's eyes as the boy tried to lessen the strain on his body. 'This may have escalated to a war, but moves like that should still be stored as last resort'.

'It's okay... I won't need to do that again' Deku replied in a strained thought, glaring down to the crater that Nagisa had landed in as the other assassins and heroes moved towards it. 'No one could get up from an attack like th-'.

A sudden movement within the cloud of smoke made Deku mentally choke on his words, and he gave a gasp of shock as a hand, much bigger and more muscular than before, emerged and slammed down onto the crater's edge. Nagisa pulled himself up with deliberate effort, a scowl on his face before he looked down at himself, which caused him to look surprised. Everyone else present stared in shock.

STRENGTH: 99999

Nagisa flexed his new muscular body, forming a fist and looking up at Deku, who seemed to have been shocked into a frozen state at the sight of Nagisa emerging from his attack relatively unharmed. In his head, the Vestiges tried to offer strategies and explanations.

'He must have a Quirk that alters his physicality. It would explain his speed a moment ago!'

'No, it can't be. This is a Quirkless town and has been for decades. It has to be something else!'

'Ninth, try to strike fast and hard! I don't think that kid is as fast as he was with that form!'

Deku steeled himself, forming a fist with his right hand before he rocketed downwards towards Nagisa, pulling his arm back and charging it with 50% of One For All.

"DETROIT SMAAAAASH!" he screamed out, throwing his fist out with enough power to blow away the grass far below him. Nagisa retaliated with his own punch, throwing his arm forward with a yell of effort. The two met in the middle, both fists impacting each other and causing a shock wave that forced everyone else back. Aizawa stared as he watched Deku being forced to this level of power, before being forced to refocus on his own fight as Karasuma landed a roundhouse kick into his stomach, only just avoiding the agent's sword slash that sent a powerful slash across the mountain, levelling the forest entirely and causing everyone to yell out in fear.

Nagisa and Deku remained where they were, however, seemingly at a stalemate. Deku's eyes widened; Nagisa had matched 50%?! Who was this guy?! In his head, the Vestiges continued to argue about how Nagisa was so powerful.

'Perhaps he possesses a power separate from Quirks? I know how that sounds, but if Aizawa's Quirk didn't work on him and his class...'

'How is he matching us at this level?! Only Tomura and All For One himself have ever pushed Ninth this far!'

'Ninth! Move quickly!'

"Huh?" Deku spoke out loud, wondering what Nana Shimura meant before Danger Sense went off, making him focus and see that Nagisa was preparing to strike with his other fist. Hastily, Deku shot a Blackwhip from his mouth, wrapping it around Nagisa's leg before he forcefully pulled his head up, yanking Nagisa's leg out from under him and causing him to fall back. Deku removed the Blackwhip and flipped away, landing on his front a good distance away and staring as Nagisa regained his balance.

"That was a smart move... should have expected that from Blackwhip..." Nagisa spoke slowly, recovering his stance. Deku prepared himself to clash again, as Nagisa stepped forward, deliberately causing the ground to crack beneath his weight as he marched towards Midoriya.

"Hey, asshole!" Bakugo's voice suddenly shouted, making Nagisa turn in shock as the boy himself came flying in, throwing an explosion into Nagisa's face. Landing on his feet, Bakugo followed up his attack with a second, smacking his hands together and charging a blast with a snarl of effort. "Heroes NEVER LOOOOSE!" he screamed, releasing his explosion as the bright light returned, blinding the explosive teen, but he smirked, knowing that his attack couldn't miss. The explosion sounded, and the air smelled of nitroglycerin.

A hand shot out of the light and grabbed Bakugo by the shirt, making the boy let out a sharp yell of shock as Nagisa stepped forward, looking completely unfazed as he glared down at the explosive hero.

DEFENCE: 99999

"W-wha-?!" Bakugo stammered, looking genuinely afraid as Nagisa pulled back his fist and struck him in the stomach, delivering a blow powerful enough to send Bakugo flying with an ear-splitting CRACK, coughing up blood as all the air was forced out of him. Kirishima ran out of the fight to catch his classmate, letting Bakugo impact his Hardened form and come to a stop. Bakugo tried to stand once Kirishima let him go, only to fall to his knees with a pained cry, seemingly incapable of standing on his own as he grasped his torso.

'K-Kaachan!' Deku thought with shock, staring as Nagisa redirected his attention back to him. The young hero began to feel his emotions spike out of his control, his mind becoming flooded with fury, fear, and determination all at once. Nagisa suddenly shrunk back down to his normal self, seemingly having used his Defence Form simply to block out Bakugo, before he noticed that Deku seemed less stable than before. Blackwhips shot out of Deku's body, their texture much more wild and less corporeal than before.

"No... no, we're... we're heroes...!" Deku whispered, sounding as though he was losing his mind. He tried to move, but his body refused to respond; he was completely terrified, but he was also furious that someone had hurt Bakugo as badly as Nagisa had. "His... his Quirk... no, n-not a Quirk... power... can... can move f-faster than the eye... strength... m-matches One For All at 50%... c-can just shrug off Kaachan's explosions... what... w-what is his power?"

Nagisa, despite himself, felt himself becoming concerned as Deku slowly slipped further into his rambling. "Hey... hey, are you okay?" he asked. Around them, the other students noticed what was happening, causing them all to slowly stop their own fights to stare at the green-haired boy as he tried to control himself.

"Hey, is, uh... is that guy alright?" Terasaka asked, ceasing his fight with Sato to stare at Deku.

"Midoriya, calm yourself! We must not lose ourselves to this fight!" Iida called, sounding afraid as he watched his friend writhe on the ground. Deku suddenly thrust his fist into the dirt, letting out a cry of anguished rage and causing everyone, even his own classmates, to step back in shock.

"Heroes... are not killers... and I will not let you... hurt my friends ANY MORE!"

Deku's scream was heard across the city as the boy suddenly lurched onto his knees, his head bent back in a defiant cry as the lightning from One For All coursed through his form, strengthening in power as he gave a powerful shout. The force of the power coursed through the boy, charging up into his hair and transforming it into a lighter shade of green that almost looked white to everyone else. Midoriya's eyes sparked with charged power as he got to his feet, staring Nagisa down with a look of determination. Nagisa stared back with a raised brow.

"I don't know why you think you can take my teacher away from my friends..." the blue-haired teen gritted out, his teeth clenched tight as light began escaping his form again. "...but I can promise you this. If you want Koro-Sensei, you have to go through me!"

"Bring it on!" Deku shouted, his voice echoing as he charged forward once more. Nagisa transformed back into his Strength Form and clashed with the hero, only to be caught off guard as Deku instantly appeared behind him and delivered a dropkick to his back, kicking Nagisa with enough power to send him careening across the field. Skidding to a halt, Nagisa barely had time to recover before a fist met his gaze, making his eyes widen as Deku uppercutted him, the shockwave from the blow being heard across the city as Nagisa was sent flying into the sky.

Deku powered through the air after Nagisa, sending punch after kick after punch at the boy as Nagisa was forced to block, becoming incapable of countering due to Midoriya's speed. However, Nagisa knew that he couldn't just transition his Bug to boosting his Speed stat, or he would lose the defence and strength necessary to take Deku's blows.

"Nagisa, duck!" Terasaka's voice shouted out. Nagisa didn't even stop to question the order and ducked down, allowing a hail of Anti-Sensei BBs to riddle Deku's form and forcing him to stop his assault and look up. Terasaka stood there alongside Yoshida, Muramatsu and Hazama, all of them bearing an Anti-Sensei rifle. "Yeah, sparky eyes over here, Punching Boy!" the brawny teen snarled, throwing down his now-empty weapon and running directly towards Midoriya, who seemed genuinely confused as to why the taller boy was seemingly attacking him while unarmed.

LEVEL: 99

Terasaka gave out a yell as his body suddenly transformed as he ran, bulking up to a hulking height and form as he spawned a large sword from seemingly nowhere. Deku gave a small yelp of surprise as the now even brawnier teen swung his massive weapon towards him, forcing him to jump back and strategize. In his head, the Vestiges gave the best advice they could.

'Use Blackwhip to get the sword off of him, then go for a strike'.

'It's likely that the boy is too strong to pull that move on. I'd say go for the strike while dodging the blade'.

'What about the kid we were JUST fighting?! Anyone wanna make sure we're still keeping track of him?!'

Deku bolted forward, creating a cloud with Smokescreen, blinding Terasaka and making him swipe down blindly as he moved through the smoke. Deku dodged the strike and raised his fist above his head as he flew up above the other teen, still caught in the cloud. "WYOMIIIING... SMAAAAAAASH!" he bellowed, swinging his fist down on Terasaka with force. Terasaka, hearing Deku's cry, swung his sword up and caught the blow on the side of the large surface area of his blade, the air pressure created by the blow forcing the Smokescreen cloud to be blown away instantly. The metal wobbled and trembled, but it did not buckle as Terasaka, with a great shout of effort, forced Deku off of him and sent him flying back across the field towards his friends. Landing on his feet, Deku stood up to full height, glaring at Class E as they formed a strong unit around each other. Terasaka lowered his weapon and offered his hand down to Nagisa, who took it gratefully and allowed himself to be pulled to his feet.

"Y'know, you do sometimes get in over your head" Terasaka grinned at the blue-haired teen, who chuckled nervously before the pair re-entered their battle-ready expressions, turning to Class A as they copied the assassins in reforming their line of defence as one team. All Might moved forward, his own large blade over his shoulder as he stared Class E down. Aizawa moved towards the front, looking downright dishevelled by this stage, but still seemingly set in helping his students to win this war.

"We all know this will not end unless one side succumbs to defeat" he stated loudly and firmly. Class E steeled themselves firmly, with half of them pulling out Anti-Sensei weapons while the other chose their newly acquired arsenals by summoning fire and lightning into their hands. Class A readied themselves as well, with most once again readying their Quirks, while a few chose to pull out their unique items, such as Uraraka, who pulled out her Mediblaster, and Deku, who was still using 100%, pulled out his Pulse Pistols and readied them in his hands.

"All your reasoning for why heroes are better than assassins..." Nagisa called, noticing Deku's new weapons and giving a grimace of... disappointment? "And yet in the end, you chose to use an assassin's weapons to try and win the day?"

"You can't be a hero... if you don't learn from the villains you defeat!" Deku shouted back, holding up the pistols and readying them in his grip. "I know that heroism isn't a black-and-white concept. There's no true answer to what's wrong or right. But I know what I believe in..." He turned to his friends, who all smiled at him for his words. The boy's eyes found Bakugo, who Uraraka had partially healed with her Mediblaster, and shared a look with him. Bakugo smirked back, giving a nod as Deku turned back to the assassin class.

"I believe that every heart has a level of humanity within! Heroes may not be perfect, and neither are we... but we'll still fight to protect those who need us!" He aimed his pistol at Koro-Sensei, who seemed to have been shocked by the young boy's words. "Your teacher might be strong, but he poses a threat to every living thing on Earth! No one can stop him, so we have to stop him for them! It's a hero's job to save people! If they can't pick themselves up..."

The boy finally felt his emotions spike as he let One For All charge to its absolute maximum, causing giant strokes of lightning to strike out from his form as he shouted his final proclamation. "Then we will be there to help! THAT'S WHY WE ARE HERE!" he cried, his throat tearing from the volume at which he shouted these words. On Deku's final word, Class A moved as one for what seemed to be a final time. Todoroki's face curled into an efforted growl as he raised his right foot.

"Heaven-Piercing ICE WALL!" he shouted, causing a giant wave of ice to explode out from where his foot struck, covering half the mountain as Class E dodged with yells of shock. Those with rifles fired their clips towards the heroes, and one of the BBs flew straight into Iida's eye as he ran, half-blinding him as causing him to scream out as he ran straight into Isogai, who caught the Engine Hero and threw him to the other side of him, sending a fireball his direction. Iida, not to be outdone, instantly ran out of the fire's path, only to be struck in the face by a punch from Maehara as Isogai moved in swiftly. The pair tag-teamed on Iida, who struggled to fight back due to the searing pain in his now punctured eye.

"DIE!" Bakugo bellowed, launching in and sending an explosion at Isogai and Maehara, who were forced to roll to dodge and stopping their attack on Iida, who struggled to stand as Bakugo landed next to him. "Get goin'. Find Uraraka, she can try to heal that" he growled to the class representative, who nodded with a strained expression and ran off, throwing attacks at anyone he could reach as he did so. Bakugo turned to the assassin duo, who instantly moved to cover each other against their new foe.

"Bring it on, extras!" Bakugo jeered, his hands lighting up as he blasted towards them. Isogai pushed Maehara to one side and rolled to the other, allowing the pair to avoid the living rocket and send strikes of lightning at him. Bakugo used his Quirk to set off an explosion from his chest, dodging the lightning with ease and letting him move swiftly to attack again. Maehara raised his sword, but his swing met only air as Bakugo sidestepped the slash and grabbed the blade, snapping it in half. "Try harder!" Bakugo taunted, sending an explosion into Maehara's stomach with an uppercut that sent the boy flying... as a rainbow was formed in the sky, creating a stark contrast to the now grey mountain and sky.

"The hell-?!" Bakugo said, looking shocked to a standstill as Isogai came running in from behind. The strike from the class representative's blade caused a slice down Bakugo's back, sending a spurt of blood to fly up and Bakugo to scream out loud, snapping around and backhanding Isogai across the face before the other boy could even react, sending him flying into a heap onto the dying grass. Bakugo snarled down at Isogai, only to pause. "Wait... when did this guy start fighting with a naked backside?" he asked incredulously, eyeing Isogai's bare back with shock.

"The idea is that no one ever sees his back, because he never RUNS AWAY!" came another voice, forcing Bakugo to dodge as Terasaka slammed down with his sword, causing the ground to crack as the brawny boy stood up straight, his expression like that of a seasoned warrior as he raised his blade to face the explosive hero. Bakugo scoffed.

"You think just because you bulked up and pulled a sword out of your ass that you can take me on?" he sneered, holding up his hands and sparking two small explosions from his palms. "Pop quiz; what happens when an explosion makes contact with bare skin?"

"Come and find out, asshole" Terasaka jeered back, his mouth curling into a smirk as Bakugo's expression flashed with rage. With a strangled scream, the explosive teen blasted towards the buffed up assassin, who moved with enough speed to block the blast that came his way, his smile not leaving his face for even a moment as he locked eyes with his opponent.

Elsewhere, Uraraka shot her Mediblaster into Iida's eye, only to give a small whimper as it held no results. "Oh no... Iida, I don't think this is strong enough to help!" she said guiltily. Iida, however, waved off her apology.

"I can seek help elsewhere after this. What matters now is that we win this fight!" he said with his normal tone of passion and honourable dictation, making Uraraka give a small smile at her classmate's resolution. This moment was cut short as lightning suddenly sparked in the sky, followed by an explosive wave that almost knocked the pair off their feet. They looked up to see Deku and Nagisa once again trading blows, only this time, Nagisa seemed in better control; he had become capable of moving in tandem with One For All at 100%, and was slowly managing to deal damage to Midoriya as the hero began to show signs of struggle. His Chronal Accelerator was slowly damaged until it was destroyed entirely, the shards falling away as the fight raged on.

"Come on, we have to help!" Uraraka said desperately, jumping out from where she and Iida had been hiding and running back into the fight, only to be met with a foot to the chest courtesy of Kayano, forcing the Zero Gravity heroine back as she landed gracefully on her feet. "Get out of our way!" Uraraka demanded, her fiery passionate streak beginning to show as she aimed her Mediblaster at Kayano.

The next second, however, the weapon was smacked away faster than the girl could perceive, falling to the ground at a distance too far for Uraraka to reach.

"H-huh?!" Uraraka stammered, looking at her now empty hand as Kayano pulled back what she had just attacked the heroine with; a long black tentacle, identical to the ones she had previously had removed by Koro-Sensei. This time around, however, she had asked them not to kill, but to protect; to give her the strength she needed to protect her friends and her teachers. She revealed her second tentacle as she began to rise up above Uraraka, who stared back at her with a mixture of shock and fear. Iida reappeared next to her, seemingly taken aback by Kayano's new appendages.

"You want to hurt my friends?" Kayano hissed, her tentacles flexing as she spoke. "You’ll have to get through me first!" She pulled her tentacle back and sent it flying towards the pair. Iida shoved Uraraka out of the way and allowed the strike to impact his shoulder, causing a loud CRACK to sound out as Uraraka heard Iida's pained cry as he was sent crashing into a tree, before he slumped down to its base and remained still.

"NO!" she shrieked, punching her fist into a tree and causing it to break off from the ground. Grabbing it, she activated her Quirk and swung it round with a shout of effort, sending the tree flying into Kayano and forcing her to block with her tentacles. Kayano gave a snarl as she grabbed the wood in her tentacles, ripping it into splinters almost instantly. However, Uraraka had intended for that, as she quickly manipulated the newly created splinters to fly straight at Kayano at rapid speed. Kayano defended with her tentacles at high speeds, destroying some wood chips and avoiding others, but proving unable to avoid them all, as several flew into her torso and arms, causing the girl immense amounts of pain and resulting in her giving a pained cry.

A yellow streak smashed straight into Uraraka at that moment, sending the girl flying through a tree and away from the now injured Kayano as she fell to her knees, her tentacles falling limp as Koro-Sensei arrived at her side. "Kayano! Are you alright? Where did you get-?!"

"Found out... just now" Kayano slurred, feeling the pain begin to affect her consciousness as Koro-Sensei helped her to her feet. "Must've... been given them back... b-by Ritsu's machine..."

"Yet you do not possess the same intense rage as before..." Koro-Sensei muttered, thinking hard, before shaking his head. "Alright, rest for now, Kayano. I must rush to the rest of the students's aid". He left Kayano leaning against a broken tree to recover and flew away, his eyes darting across the field to view the fight. It seemed to be a split down the middle; while Class E's new powers and weapons were proving to be more formidable than anything Koro-Sensei had ever seen, Class A's own newly acquired arsenals were seemingly on-par with them, causing the battle to become a slow but steady stalemate.

Bakugo flew around Terasaka's massive form, sending explosions towards the brawny teen as the latter swung his sword around him with expert precision. Nakamura's ice proved to be the perfect counter to Ashido's acid, but Ashido had found a new strategy thanks in part to her new summonable pickaxe that she now struck Nakamura's sword with, the pair of them seemingly caught in a lock with each other. Karasuma and Aizawa were fighting with such ferocity that Koro-Sensei could barely tell which man was which from this distance. Irina seemed to have Present Mic at her mercy, crushing his Directional Speaker System under her heel, but Mic fought back by sending an omnidirectional wave of sound with his Quirk to force Irina back.

A powerful shockwave from above made Koro-Sensei look up in alarm; Nagisa and Deku, still fighting back-and-forth as they had done for the past five straight minutes, still seemingly caught in their debate of the morality of assassins and heroes.

"You can't argue against reality, Midoriya!" Nagisa yelled, throwing a Max Strength punch to match Deku's own 100% strike, causing the hero's sleeve to rip away and reveal a barely-functioning arm; Deku was forcing himself to keep using it by wrapping it with Blackwhips and pulling the muscles around to attack. "There are just some people in the world that have to die! You can't alter a heart that's become set on its path!"

"Then I will fight back against those who won't change!" Deku roared back, throwing his foot up and kicking into Nagisa's side, causing the leg of his uniform to tear away from below the knee and blood to spurt out of his broken skin. Blackwhips instantly shot out of Deku's thigh and melted into the broken limb, correcting its shape and darkening the skin to the same shade as his arm. "There are those who need my help! For them, I will ALWAYS extend my helping hand!"

"You can't extend a hand if your Quirk keeps damaging you!" Nagisa argued back. "Don't you think it would be safer to trust in your friends?!"

"Of course!" Deku responded with strong resolve, continuing to attack as his body became more and more bloodied and damaged; within a minute, all of the hero's body, save his head, was wrapped up in Blackwhip, allowing Midoriya to move despite his injuries from overusing One For All. "I would have been lost without my friends! I'm here because of them!"

"H-hey, hang on, your body-!" Nagisa began, suddenly sounding concerned, but Deku decided to stop listening past this point, continuing to attack as his body howled with pain at him. Deku knew he was pushing himself too far; his body was now in so much agony that he could barely breathe, but he couldn't relent. He needed to fight. He needed to win! He had to save his friends!

He had to save EVERYO-!

CLAP!

Deku choked on his own breath as his senses suddenly went out, rendering him momentarily immobile. He hung in the air, unable to move as his body began to finally punish him for the agony he had been putting it through. Every nerve in his body flared, further forcing Deku to freeze, leaving him wide open as Nagisa flew up towards him, grabbed him gently by the back of the head with a small grimace...

...and kissed him. The assassin pulled the hero into a full-blown kiss, locking lips with Midoriya and refusing to let go.

Everyone on the ground seemed to stop dead as they all saw what had just happened. Even Bakugo and Terasaka halted their duel as everyone goggled at the two main students. Mineta looked up in what seemed to be jealousy, which was quickly amended when Okajima smacked the diminutive teen around the head, giving him an insinuating look, which caused Mineta to look extremely embarrassed.

Irina looked up, letting go of Present Mic's collar and actually cracking a smile. "Well, I'll be damned... nice work, kid" she smirked.

However, no one on the field, apart from one, could have possibly known what Nagisa was TRULY doing. The Bug shifted, and Nagisa's eyes narrowed as red lightning sparked in his eyes.

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

"What the hell?! What kind of kid IS this?!" Daigoro Banjo yelled, looking furious as he observed what was happening. He turned to look around at everyone else in the Vestige Realm, who all looked equally shocked at what Nagisa had just done.

"It must be a way to throw Ninth off" En Tayutai stated bluntly. "You can see it on his face. He didn't WANT to do that at all".

"Shimura, any ideas?" Yoichi Shigaraki offered, looking over at the seventh wielder of One For All as she sat in her own seat. Nana Shimura seemed contemplative as she watched what was happening with a raised brow.

"I agree with En" she stated. "This was clearly a last resort move. Why he decided to use it now, though, is a mystery..."

"We need to get Ninth back up, now!" Bruce growled urgently, looking angry. "That clap move into the kiss has completely knocked him out for the count!"

"That was the point".

Every single soul present suddenly snapped around in shock; the walls of the Vestige Realm itself seemed to warp, shifting from a deep purple and black into a scarlet red. Before the Wielders stood none other than Nagisa Shiota, only this version of the boy was much different to the incarnation in the real world; his skin was covered in blue and green scales, eyes seemed to litter his form that stared out in every direction, and one half of his face was covered in scales while the other half looked human.

"Midoriya is definitely worthy of being called a hero" Nagisa spoke, his voice filling the Realm as his form seemed to mutate and shift before the Vestiges's eyes. "But I'm afraid that if he won't willingly stop attacking my friends... then I'll have to force him".

"H-how did you even-?!" Hikage Shinomori stammered out, but his question was cut short as Nagisa's form began to alter, shifting into a larger form that looked even more snake-like as his eyes filled with determined willpower.

"I'm sorry..." his voice hissed to the Vestiges. "But I'm stopping Izuku Midoriya. If that means I have to do this... then so be it".

Nana tried to speak, before a sudden quake shook the realm and forced her to stop and look around in barely contained fear. How did Shiota get into the Realm?! As she tried to solve this almost impossible question, Yoichi suddenly looked downright terrified, grasping his chest.

"ONE FOR ALL!" he shouted. "IT'S UNDER ATTACK!"

"How?!" Hikage yelled, looking around as the Realm visibly shook. "It can't be forcefully stolen by anyone except-!" Nagisa's form suddenly flashed, his skin giving a spark of red lightning for all the Vestiges to see.

Nana's eyes widened. "Except All For One..."

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

In the real world, the Blackwhips wrapping up Deku's body began to dissipate, decaying and shrinking until they disappeared. However, their disappearance revealed something strange.

Deku's body was being healed, its skin slowly repairing as Nagisa maintained the kiss. This seemed to be intentional on Nagisa's end, whose face was shaped into an expression of concentration.

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

All of the Vestiges were now fighting back against Nagisa's attack, using their combined will to try and protect One For All. However, Yoichi noticed that something was wrong; the Vestiges were beginning to falter, seemingly affected by an atmospheric alteration that was originating from the Nagisa Vestige. Daigoro's form began to lose its corporeal form as his expression shifted from anger to fear.

"G-guys, we're losing this!" he shouted out. "Come on, we need to...!"

The rest of his sentence was cut off as Daigoro disappeared, his Vestige fading into a shining ball of light that was then pulled away into Nagisa's form.

"BANJO!" En cried out, trying to reach out and grab the light before Nagisa absorbed it, but that resulted in his will becoming weakened by the distraction, causing him to slowly lose his physical form as well. One by one, each of the Vestiges faltered and faded, their forms reducing to the same balls of light as Banjo, only each of them were shining with a different colour. Nagisa took them all into his own form, letting out a noise that sounded close to regret, before turning his attention to the final Vestige; Yoichi himself, whose willpower was holding strong, but he would soon lose the energy to fight back.

"Please... let me protect my friends..." Nagisa whispered, and Yoichi, caught off-guard, looked deeper. Within Nagisa's Vestige, he saw the boy's memories... a struggling child who refused to fight for themselves... a mother who wouldn't let their 'daughter' live their own life... the class the boy had been sent to, and the experiences he had gone through there... Yoichi gave a small gasp.

Nagisa wasn't doing this maliciously. He only wanted to do what he thought was right.

Just as a hero would.

The first wielder's head slumped forward as Yoichi took this information in. Then, with a final huff of sad laughter, he looked up... and he smiled.

"Promise me you will treat it well" he whispered. Nagisa's eyes shifted into their natural shade of blue as he locked eyes with Yoichi... and he nodded.

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

"GET OFF OF HIM!" Bakugo bellowed, blasting up towards where Nagisa and Deku remained aloft in the sky, before throwing an explosion towards them as Nagisa finally broke off from the kiss, flying backwards and letting the explosion soar past him into the darkened sky. The assassin performed a backflip as he landed on his feet. Deku slowly fell back down to earth, threatening to slam into the ground before Uraraka boosted forwards and caught him, allowing him time to recover as she turned to glare at Nagisa.

"Do you think this is a joke?!" Aizawa shouted angrily, his glowing red eye also upon Nagisa as he spoke. "Engaging in such a juvenile action in the middle of a battle like this?!"

"If I could have done it another way, I would have" Nagisa replied, and his voice was actually filled with remorse as he looked at Deku, who had come to his senses and was slowly realising what had happened. All Might's eyes widened before he ran over to Midoriya, looking afraid.

"Young Midoriya, where's-?" he asked in a panicked tone. Deku couldn't respond, looking as though his entire world had been shattered. He slowly looked up at Nagisa, before standing up from Uraraka's grasp and holding up his arm.

"Blackwhip!" he shouted, and Class E steadied themselves for the attack... but it never came.

"The hell-?" Bakugo muttered, though still loud enough to be heard. "Deku, what're you waiting for?! Rush in and beat her ass!"

"B-Blackwhip!" Deku tried again, but again, nothing happened. Deku turned around, placing a hand on All Might's sword. "Gearshift!" he shouted, but the blade didn't so much as move an inch. Bakugo had had enough, marching over and smacking Deku around the head.

"You useless loser, get your head in the-!... how was I just able to hit you?" he asked suddenly, losing his anger as he noticed that Deku had not dodged his strike.

Danger Sense usually accounted for that.

"I'm sorry, Midoriya" Nagisa called, causing everyone in Class A to look up at him, most of them looking confused, while Deku, All Might and Bakugo now looked horrified. "But you were going to destroy your body if you kept that fight up".

"W-what did you...?" Uraraka asked slowly, before she had to fight down a scream; Nagisa's body suddenly exploded with lightning, though his form was blue as opposed to Deku's green. The blue-haired teen looked as though he was struggling with something within, suddenly grabbing his arms as pain began to surge through them, causing him to drop to one knee.

"Nagisa, what did you do?!" Koro-Sensei asked urgently, rushing over to try and help his student, but Nagisa held up a hand to stop him. His body seemed to alter itself as he knelt down, with his muscles becoming more refined and well-built. Nagisa felt the pain slowly ebb away as his arms shifted into a more toned form, making him give a sigh of both relief and guilt as he stood up again, his eyes now sparking with blue energy as Deku's had.

"Midoriya, what happened?!" Kirishima asked, sounding both confused and afraid. Deku's eyes were wider than they had ever been in his life as he slowly responded.

"He... he s-stole... One For All..." he whispered.

The silence that fell was deafening. All of Class A stared with shocked horror from Deku to Nagisa. Class E, on the other hand, suddenly looked as though they had won the lottery.

"You stole his powers?!" Karma asked, sounding as though he couldn't believe what he was hearing. "Well, alright then, guess that settles that!"

"Wait, h-how did he do it?" Tsuyu asked in a trembling voice. Nagisa sighed.

"You guys... were fairly unique to find info on..."

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

Nagisa flew back into the greenery from Deku's strike, his God Arc forming back into the black clasp on his wrist as he landed on his back, making him shout with pain. He quickly got to his feet, desperate to get back to the fight and help Kayano, only for a hand to shoot out and grab his shoulder.

"Nagisa, it's me!" Fuwa said urgently, pulling the blue-haired teen's attention away from the fight.

"Fuwa?" Nagisa asked. "Why are you here and not out there fighting?"

"I found out what power I got from Ritsu's multiversal machine thingy!" the girl explained, holding up a hand. A book suddenly appeared in her hand, making Nagisa blink.

"Oh... you can create books?" he asked innocently. Fuwa grimaced at him, making Nagisa feel guilty.

"Not just any books. I can grab any item I want when I want it. That also includes items from other worlds, INCLUDING one where we're all just fictional characters in a manga!"

"...excuse me, pull back a bit, what?" Nagisa asked, sounding put out.

"In essentials, there's a world out there where we and those hero guys we're fighting are just separate manga series that people read every day" she explained, holding up the book for Nagisa to read the cover.

"'Assassination Classroom'...?" he read off, before noticing the drawing. "Wait, that's Koro-Sensei's face!"

"Right! We're just fictional characters in that world!" Fuwa nodded, before vanishing the manga and spawning a new one. "Now look at this one!" Nagisa took the book and took in the cover.

"'My Hero Academia'..." he muttered, taking in the art on the front cover and noting the muscular man behind the drawing of Midoriya. "Wow, time was NOT nice to that All Might guy..."

"Here, let me show you this!" Fuwa said again, reaching out and turning the pages to a certain one she wanted Nagisa to see. The young assassin read through the panels, before noticing what Fuwa was trying to point out.

"...One For All...?"

"Midoriya's power!" Fuwa explained. "Now look at this!" She turned the pages again, and Nagisa found the panel she indicated.

"All For One...?"

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

Nagisa's body finally finished adjusting itself to the new power he had gained, becoming capable of utilising the strength-enhancing Quirk as he began to move around to ensure his body wouldn't be injured from using it. As he did so, Class A watched in shock.

"He stole Midoriya's Quirk..." Kaminari whispered, looking terrified as Nagisa practiced with Blackwhip, shooting off a strand of the Quirk into the sky. "H-how?! I thought only All For One had that power!"

"I replicated All For One's Quirk" Nagisa spoke up, turning to the heroes and looking sombre. "It was the only way I knew how to stop you guys from attacking us in the way that you were. I'm gonna give you all one more chance..."

Nagisa's body charged up with One For All's power, rising up to 30% and causing the clouds above to be blown apart. "Leave now, and we promise that Koro-Sensei's threat to the world will be ended”.

“I’m afraid that we can’t do that, young man” Aizawa replied, stepping in front of Deku, who remained silent as Bakugo grasped his shoulder in a comforting way. “We now have to worry about your placement in society, what with you stealing away with the world’s most powerful Quirk”.

“You think I can’t be trusted?” Nagisa asked, eyebrow raised, before he sighed. “Alright… all of you”. He walked forward, away from Class E, then raised his fists. “Come at me. Leave the others, this is MY test”.

Class A stared for a moment, before Bakugo instantly moved with a sadistic grin. “Sure! Just don’t be mad when we kick your ass!” he shouted, throwing an explosion towards Nagisa with a flourish. Nagisa dodged the blast with ease, quickly getting a grip on his new power while also trying to combine it with his more natural ability. His Bug seemed to react well with One For All, making up for his flaw in being unable to boost multiple stats at once due to the Quirk’s raw power and versatility. Bakugo spun in the air with wide eyes as he was suddenly met with Nagisa’s hand shaped in a flicking motion.

“Smash” Nagisa said, his calm voice being a complete antithesis to Deku’s screams of effort, but proving just as effective as he flicked his finger, sending a powerful gust of wind into Bakugo’s chest, winding the other teen and sending him flying across the field. Bakugo caught himself with an explosion thrown behind him and rocketed forwards again.

“Kirishima!” he shouted, with the named boy perking up. “Come on! Help me out here!”

“Right!” Kirishima nodded, rushing forwards and taking on his Unbreakable Form, knowing that his normal Hardened Form wouldn’t be enough. The Unbreakable Hero ran forwards as Bakugo flew in from the other side, each closing in on Nagisa as he stood there, looking considerate.

Then, quite suddenly, he was no longer there.

“Wha-?!” Kirishima exclaimed, looking shocked, only to then be caught off guard as Bakugo flew straight into him, sending them both sliding across the grass before coming to a stop. A round of applause from afar made Bakugo leap up and glare into the sky, where Nagisa hung in the air by activating Float. He slowly lowered himself to the ground, and faced all of Class 1-A.

“I did say all of you guys” he reminded them. Class A blinked, then realised that the boy was serious. Upon that realization, Uraraka ran forwards.

“Come on!” she called, bringing out her Mediblaster again and dashing forwards. “We can’t let him get away with stealing Deku’s Quirk!”

“Yeah!” Kaminari shouted, lightning once again starting to course across his body. “No one messes with our friends!”

“Right!” the other students called out, and all of them began running across the field, their Quirks alight in their own ways as Nagisa stared them all down. Class E watched from a distance, looking shocked.

“Doesn’t he want our help?!” Okajima asked, looking afraid and stepping forward. Karma stuck out an arm, his face adorned with a smirk.

“Let him have this” he replied. “Koro-Sensei can jump in if he does need help”.

Back with the heroes, Todoroki slid in on a wave of ice, his face resolute as he reached Nagisa first by a long distance, throwing up his left arm to send a spiral of flames towards the boy. Nagisa dodged out of the way, blue lightning dancing around him as One For All’s lines became visible on his body, similar to the ones present on Deku’s Full Cowling Form.

“You think you have the right to stand there after crippling one of the world’s finest heroes?” Todoroki snarled, throwing a wave of ice up at Nagisa, who flew up and slid down the spike that was created, a look of guilt on his face as he moved towards the half-and-half hero.

“I never wanted to rob Midoriya of his dream” he replied, landing a punch into Todoroki’s face that made him spit out a tooth, before he turned back and stamped the ground with his right foot in frustration, sending more ice at Nagisa, only for the assassin to dodge easily.

“Are you under the impression that you’re more worthy of his power?” the teen asked angrily, holding up his left arm and spawning a pillar of fire that Nagisa slid under, his eyes not changing their expression.

“I’ll tell you the answer!” Bakugo suddenly shouted from above, and the two opponents looked up as the explosive teen, who flew down towards Nagisa with outstretched arms. “The answer… is HELL NO!”

An explosion flew from the boy’s palms, forcing Nagisa to dash out of the way, only to be met with an attack from behind from Kaminari, forcing him to swing his fist behind him and backhand the Electric Hero, making him cry out and fall back. A streak of white and blue came running at the young assassin, but Nagisa countered with a kick, landing a foot into Iida’s stomach and winding the Engine Hero, forcing him to retreat as Kirishima came running in to throw a punch in his place. Nagisa ducked the south paw, before thrusting a palm into the boy’s Unbreakable Hero’s chest, the force of his strike actually causing Kirishima’s skin to crack and making the boy cough up blood with a shout of pain.

Jiro’s earjacks came flying in, followed by the girl herself as she sent a Heartbeat Wall towards where Nagisa stood. The sound briefly deafened the blue-haired teen, leaving him open as Shoji ran at him, his Dupli-Arms throwing themselves towards Nagisa and grabbing him around the torso. Shoji delivered a knee to Nagisa’s back, making the boy yell out in pain, before spinning and hurling him into the air, giving a target for Tokoyami to fly in and tackle the boy down into the ground.

“Dark Shadow; BLACK ABYSS!” he shouted, spawning his shadow companion and donning it like armour as he delivered strike after strike into Nagisa’s chest. With a yell of effort, Nagisa forced Tokoyami to a distance and delivered a spin kick into the Jet-Black Hero’s face, which Tokoyami was able to take thanks to Dark Shadow. The pair flew up into the air, delivering strike after strike towards each other as Dark Shadow grew in power due to the darkened sky.

“One For All; Ten Percent!” Nagisa shouted, before delivering a kick into Tokoyami’s stomach and winding him, sending him rocketing towards the ground and out of the fight. Nagisa turned his eyes up as he spotted Uraraka boosting towards him, her face furious as she pulled up a swarm of rocks around her.

“Meteor STORM!” she shouted, sending the rocks flying in Nagisa’s direction. Nagisa combined One For All with his Bug to boost his speed, weaving and evading the hailstorm that came flying down at him. One rock successfully struck him in the face, cutting Nagisa’s cheek and making him shout in sudden pain. Uraraka capitalized on her opening to fly at Nagisa and tackle him, taking the pair of them to the ground and landing on their feet. Uraraka tried to punch Nagisa in the face, but her strike was caught with ease.

“Did anyone ever tell any of you…” Nagisa snarled, before delivering a powerful kick to Uraraka’s stomach, making her cry out as the boy spun her around him before hurling her away. “...that you all rely on your powers way too much?” he finished, before ducking as Ojiro flew in from the side with a yell, trying to strike the blue-haired teen with his tail. Nagisa reached up and grabbed Ojiro by the tail, before spinning on the spot and throwing him into Koda, causing the pair of them to be thrown back onto the ground in a heap.

Tsuyu then came bouncing in, bounding high into the air above Nagisa as she looked down with determined eyes. “Froppy Hopper!” she shouted, before firing her frog-like tongue in Nagisa’s direction. The attack proved fast enough for Nagisa to be unable to react in time, with the tongue wrapping around his body and trapping his arms to his side. Tsuyu yanked her head upwards, yanking Nagisa into the air before letting him go, leaving him in the sky and open to another attack.

Looking down told Nagisa exactly what attack was next, as Aoyama slid in on his knees, his Navel Laser charging up before it fired off as Aoyama groaned in pain. The beam struck Nagisa in the arms as the boy blocked, making him give a yell of effort as he held back against the attack, leaving him defenceless as Uraraka flew up from behind, throwing Ashido into the sky who then threw a wave of acid at the boy’s back, burning through his cape but failing to destroy his PE uniform.

Nagisa felt the acid roll over his back and gave a shout of effort, letting his Bug take effect as Bakugo flew in from below to attack once more. Light emanated from Nagisa’s form, enveloping him and forcing most of Class A back. From afar, Class E blocked their eyes to avoid being blinded, and Koro-Sensei observed through narrowed eyes, beginning to panic as he watched Nagisa become slowly overwhelmed. Bakugo, however, stayed on course, flying upwards with a sadistic smile on his face, bringing his palms upwards as the light began to dissipate.

A giant hand suddenly shot out of the white void, wrapping around Bakugo and closing tightly around his body. Bakugo gave a shout of shock as his arms were forced down to their sides, effectively nullifying his threat as the hand pulled him upwards. The light faded at last, revealing none other than Nagisa, his size now being equivalent to that of five hundred feet as he glared down at Bakugo in his grasp, who looked back into the blue-haired teen’s enormous eyes in shock.

SIZE: 50000

“A hero overcomes every obstacle, right?” Nagisa growled, his voice amplified by his new size as he tightened his grip on Bakugo, who let out a yell of pain as he felt his body struggle under the pressure. “Then let’s see you all fight against this one!” Nagisa then turned, before throwing Bakugo towards the ground with all his might. Bakugo flew through the air with a yell, before impacting a tree, flying straight through it in a storm of splinters, then hitting another tree and sliding down it, giving a groan as he tried to sit up. Kirishima ran over, helping his friend to his feet as they and Class A as a whole looked up at their now towering opponent, who glared down at them all in kind.

Class E simply watched from afar, unable to believe their eyes. “How come NAGISA gets to be the overpowered one?!” Maehara whined, looking up in jealousy at his friend as the blue-haired titan readied himself against Class A, his feet alone, being bigger than the Class E building had been, causing the mountain beneath him to crack sporadically as he brushed his arms with his hands.

“Ritsu!” Isogai yelped at his phone, the screen of which depicted their now deeply embarrassed classmate. “You couldn’t have TRIED to give us a little warning about…?” He waved his arm towards Nagisa, though the action was less of an indication and more of a baffled question. Ritsu tugged at her collar with a nervous chuckle.

“I did say that I had no idea what powers you would all get…” she reminded her classmates, to which the assassin class blinked at her with blank expressions.

“In her defence, she DID warn us about that detail” Koro-Sensei offered helpfully.

“NOT HELPING!” the students yelled at their teacher, who yelped and covered his face in shame.

All Might stared up with wide eyes as Nagisa stood ready to face the heroes, his face looming above them with a look of grim determination as he held his stance. Bakugo had recovered at this point, however, and looked royally pissed off.

“The plan’s the same, right?” he snarled at large, to which everyone stared at him.

“Uh… Bakugo, man, I like you, you’re really strong and all, but…” Kaminari stammered, pointing up at Nagisa, who looked back down at them with a raised eyebrow, seemingly surprised that Bakugo had gotten up so quickly. “Yeah, I’m not so sure we can-”

“To HELL with what we can or can’t do!” Bakugo yelled, making Kaminari shut up instantly as explosions fired off from the teen’s palms. “It’s no different than a training session with Mount Lady! So she’s giant now, so what?!”

“He’s giant…” Kirishima corrected. “And he’s also got powers that lets him boost his strength, speed, and defence. AND he stole Midoriya’s Quirks, so we’ll have to deal with that…”

“WHATEVER!” Bakugo screamed in fury, blasting into the air. “WE CAME HERE TO STOP A VILLAIN, AND THAT’S WHAT WE’RE GONNA DO!” He threw up his right palm, throwing an explosion into Nagisa’s towering chest as he proceeded to blast to the side, throwing another explosion into Nagisa’s back. Nagisa held up his hand to block a third explosion aimed at his face before making his own move, stepping forward and throwing a massive punch towards Bakugo. The explosive teen was forced to dodge out of the way as fast as he could as Nagisa’s fist flew down towards him, only just avoiding the strike as Nagisa’s punch impacted the ground, causing the mountain to shake from the blow and throwing Class A off balance.

“Come on, we have to help him!” Uraraka yelled, boosting into the air while touching pieces of debris around her, pulling it into the sky with her and hurling it towards Nagisa. The debris struck Nagisa in the face, forcing the towering assassin to hold up his arms to block the barrage as Uraraka boosted away to avoid being attacked herself. On the ground, Class A, inspired by Uraraka’s actions, moved forward. Across the field, Class E realised that Nagisa, despite his new towering size, could be in trouble.

“Class E!” Isogai called, pointing his sword forwards. “Let’s do this!” The assassin students gave shouts of agreement and moved forward, with Koro-Sensei flying into the sky to take on Uraraka, who threw some debris his way as he rose into the sky.

Karma ran forward and bounded upwards, grabbing onto Nagisa’s trouser leg as he noticed Bakugo flying in for another attack that Nagisa hadn’t noticed yet. With a shout, he threw himself upwards, slicing his sword through the air towards Bakugo, who spotted the redhead and gave a growl of frustration as Nagisa turned to see what the sudden noise was. Seeing the explosive teen, Nagisa’s eyes narrowed as he raised his arm and threw a punch towards Bakugo, who was forced to dodge and retreat, clearly angry that he had failed in his attack. Nagisa noticed Karma hanging on his waistcoat and picked him up to place on his shoulder, which allowed him to hear his now diminutive friend, who was clearly over the moon about this development.

“Guess I can’t call you the shortest in the class anymore, huh?” he called up, to which Nagisa smiled awkwardly, before a small projectile hit him in the face and made him give a grunt of pain. Karma looked down to see Sero running across the ground, firing tape upwards to wrap around Nagisa’s arm to swing himself upwards. A grimace on his face, Karma jumped down from Nagisa’s shoulder and rocketed towards the Tape Hero, who spotted the redhead and rolled out of the way as Karma sliced through his tape, forcing Sero to stay on the ground and face the talented assassin.

Nagisa, satisfied with the idea that Karma could hold his own, turned to help out the rest of his friends. Spotting All Might engaging with Koro-Sensei, the latter of whom seemed to be struggling, he stepped forward and swung out his hand with a shout. Koro-Sensei, seeing what was coming, dodged downwards instantly, as All Might suddenly found himself taking a full force slap from Nagisa, the blue-haired boy’s hand impacting the entire front of his body and sending him flying across the field, crashing into the ground and making him yell out in pain. His armour fared worse, however; it was now bent, cracked, and sparking in several places, malfunctioning around All Might as he attempted to stand back up.

“Sometimes…” Nagisa called down, his expression determined as he began to walk towards the grounded All Might. “It’s better to stay out of the fight, especially if you’re past your time”.

“No…” All Might groaned, trying desperately to stand up as the battle raged around him and the skyscraper-sized assassin; Class E had taken the upper hand, beginning to force Class A into submission as they took advantage of the shock that Nagisa’s size alteration had given them. Aizawa was kicked to the ground and grabbed by the front of his shirt by Karasuma, who looked down at the Pro Hero in anger.

“Surrender!” he shouted, shaking the teacher as he indicated the battlefield around them. “You can’t hope to win this fight! We take no pleasure in taking lives!”

Aizawa coughed, then looked up at Karasuma with a furious eye. “A hero… never surrenders… to a villain…” he coughed, his expression ugly as he glared at the government agent. Karasuma gave a low growl as he raised a fist, punching Aizawa with enough strength to knock a tooth out of his mouth.

“For God’s sake, let go of your heroic streak for a second and LOOK!” he hollered, throwing his arm out to let Aizawa see what was happening. Aizawa looked around, and he slowly felt his heart’s hope begin to fade.

Iida was now pinned down by Isogai and Maehara, yelling out as Maehara held a foot to his leg. Uraraka was being forced on the back foot by Kayano, whose tentacles were proving too much for the Zero Gravity heroine as she was forced against a tree. All Might laid there as Nagisa approached, his armour refusing to respond to his commands as the looming assassin’s shadow overtook him. Across the field, similar results greeted the Erasure Hero, as he saw his students slowly being forced on the defensive as Class E overwhelmed them.

Bakugo alone remained defiant, flying across the field with a livid expression as he threw an explosion towards Nagisa’s back, only for the blast to be countered by Terasaka, who then flung himself forwards to challenge the hero, causing Bakugo to yell out in frustration and engage in combat with the brawny teen once again.

Aizawa tried to force Karasuma off of him to help his students, but the agent forced the hero down to the ground with a look of determined frustration. “Just surrender. This doesn’t have to end with death” he pleaded. “These are just kids, and we’re forcing them to fight a war”.

“My students are familiar with fighting wars” Aizawa choked out, trying with all his might to attack Karasuma and free himself. “Hell… one of my kids… fought one… all by himself”.

Nagisa stood above All Might, waiting for a signal to tell him if he should finish the hero off. He looked down towards Karasuma, who looked at Aizawa, whose expression didn’t change despite the looming glare from the blue-haired giant. Karasuma gave a sigh, then gave a wave towards Nagisa, whose face shifted to that of grim acceptance.

This war wouldn’t end until at least one soul was lost.

“I’m sorry” he whispered down to All Might, who had managed to reach his feet and stood tall against the odds, looking up as Nagisa raised his foot into the air, aiming it above the former Number One with reluctance. “I wish we could have settled this differently somehow… but you’ve made your stance clear”.

All Might showed no fear against his looming fate, merely standing there as Nagisa stood above him, the teen’s shoe hanging above the hero in an intimidating way. He looked down at his destroyed armour, took note of how hopeless the situation was… and looked back up at Nagisa, a smile on his face.

Despite his injuries, despite his fate being clear… the Symbol of Peace stood smiling, inspiring his students even as he stood against the looming future.

Nagisa closed his eyes, his emotions beginning to overtake his judgement, as he forced his foot down. The impact blew away all the trees on the mountain that were still standing, the wind caused by the boy stepping down blowing across the field and knocking his class onto the ground alongside their Class A opponents. Bakugo looked up from where he lay, his expression horrified.

“NO!” he shouted, not in anger but in fear, as he blasted towards the cloud of dust that had been kicked up from Nagisa’s step. He threw an explosion at the grey wall, blowing the smoke away as he rocketed towards the impact zone.

Green lightning sparking outwards made him stop dead.

Nagisa’s eyes widened as he felt his foot be slowly forced upwards, nearly throwing him off balance as he tried to force it down. He moved his head to see what was causing his struggle, and let out a gasp of shock as he saw who now stood there, standing against fate with nothing but his own strength and hope.

Izuku Midoriya stood tall, holding Nagisa’s foot above him and slowly forcing it upwards, his expression furious as he fought against Nagisa’s strength. He was now adorned in an armoured suit similar to All Might’s, only his seemed more styled after him, with even his cape being mechanised as the armour morphed around his body. Green lightning danced across his body as Deku forced Nagisa off of his mentor, looking down at All Might with worry. All Might looked up at Deku in return, looking shocked.

“Young… Midoriya…?” he asked feebly, his energy slowly fading as he tried to understand what was happening. Deku gave a small reassuring smile to his idol.

“It’s alright, All Might” he said kindly. “I’m here”.

With a shout, Deku threw a powerful punch into Nagisa’s foot, the force proving strong enough to push Nagisa back with a yelp of shock as he fought to keep his balance for danger of crushing his friends. Deku stood strong against the blue-haired titan, his Costume Omega shifting around him as he glared up at his towering opponent. Nagisa stared back at the hero, completely shocked.

“You… you don’t have your powers…” he called down to Midoriya, whose expression shifted to a shadowed look that hid his face. “You lost your ability to fight at your best, but you’re still fighting? Why?”

Deku’s eyes sparked with One For All’s Embers as his face snapped up again, his expression set with determined fury. “Being a hero doesn’t rely on how powerful you are!” he shouted back, making everyone present on the field look at him with shock. “A hero is someone who fights… even against his own limits! If I can’t fight to save my friends…” He slowly charged his body with the Embers of his former Quirk, letting the lightning strengthen around him before he blasted into the sky.

“Then I can’t call myself… a HERO WHO SAVES EVERYONE!” he screamed out, throwing his arm forward. A black mechanical rope shot from his forearm, wrapping around Nagisa’s arm as Deku flew towards him, pulling back his fist.

“DETROOOOOOOOOIT… SMAAAAAAAAAAAASH!” he yelled, powering his fist into Nagisa’s stomach and winding the young assassin. The wind borne from Deku’s attack blew around the area, forcing Class E and Class A to block their faces as light shone out from Nagisa once more. When it dissipated, Nagisa was revealed to have shrunk back to his normal size, looking shocked as Deku flew at him again, pulling the same arm back again.

“DETROIT SMASH!” he screamed, throwing his fist into Nagisa’s face and flinging him further into the sky. Nagisa shook his head as he flew, trying to get a bearing on his senses as Deku came rocketing upwards again.

“DETROOOOIT SMAAAAASH!” Midoriya’s scream echoed across the city as he punched Nagisa a third time, throwing the smaller boy even further upwards. Nagisa tried to claim a grip on his senses, looking down as Deku flew upwards to attack him again. As he did so, a new emotion sparked in Nagisa’s heart.

Respect.

Deku, despite being robbed of his power, despite the overwhelming odds put in front of him, had chosen to fight anyway, determined to save his friends until he could no longer fight. Nagisa stared down at Midoriya as he flew upwards towards him… and smiled.

“You really are… a hero” he whispered. He then allowed his Bug to take effect one last time, letting out a long shout as a golden aura began to shine around him. His blue hair began to shift back and forth from its natural blue to a shining gold, and his body took on an even more toned form than before.

Deku stared with shocked eyes as he watched Nagisa transform once more, before realising what was happening thanks to the small voice in his head. “Super Saiyan…” he muttered, staring up at Nagisa, who now floated in the air while looking down at Midoriya, his hair raising up above his head as it shone with a brilliant gold glow. Blue lightning then sparked across the assassin’s body, making Deku’s eyes widen.

‘Wait… he combined Super Saiyan AND One For All?!’ he thought in shock. He considered, then gave a grim smile; he couldn’t blame Nagisa for the combo move, since he would have done the exact same thing if he could.

With a shout, Deku powered up with the Embers of One For All and rocketed upwards. At the same time, Nagisa gave a yell as he charged One For All with his Super Saiyan energy, firing off several Blackwhips and wrapping them around his fists. Charging Fa Jin and Gearshift into the tendrils, he blasted downwards towards Midoriya.

Together, the two top students flew towards each other, letting out shouts of effort as they prepared for their final attacks. Both pulled their fists back, Nagisa’s charging with blue lightning while Deku’s swarmed with green sparks. Midoriya pulled his fist down, entering a form to perform an uppercut as Nagisa prepared his punch to connect as an overhead blow.

“GO… BEYOOOOOOOND…” Deku’s voice howled across the sky, being heard by his classmates on the ground as they watched this final clash about to happen. Bakugo stared up at his friend, completely taken aback that Deku was still fighting despite his lack of Quirk. Koro-Sensei floated in the sky, his eyes wide as he watched the two boys rocketing towards each other. Deku’s form suddenly became wrapped in golden smoke, morphing around the boy until it flew behind him, taking the form of a prime-state All Might, his gleaming smile shining on his smoky face as Midoriya flew forwards.

“PLUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUSSSSS… UUUUULLLLTRRRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!”

The two boy’s fists met as Deku released his final scream into the sky, the volume even exceeding Present Mic’s top volume as blue and green lightning strikes sparked across the darkened sky. The clouds were blown apart as Nagisa and Deku hung in the air, seemingly frozen in time after their final strikes clashed.

For a few seconds, they hung in time, seemingly at a stalemate.

Then… Deku’s arm began to crack.

Cracks began to appear all across Deku’s arm, his armour tearing away as he fought against Nagisa’s power. His bones cracked and buckled under the stress, making Deku scream in agony as Nagisa slowly forced his remaining strength into his own arm. Blood began to spurt out of Midoriya’s arm, running down his body and making him shout out in pain..,

…before his arm finally exploded, blood showering everywhere as Deku gave a final howl. Nagisa bent forwards from his strike careening downwards, hanging there as Deku, now with only one arm, floated in the air, his eyes seeming to begin to dull. The green lightning slowly died away, revealing greyed eyes as Deku slowly began to fall down to Earth. However, his other arm was instantly grabbed by Nagisa, who looked down at his opponent with silent tears in his eyes.

“I’m so sorry…” he whispered, his golden hair fading back to his natural blue as he pulled Deku closer. He slowly made his descent with Midoriya in his arms, looking down at the boy with deep sadness. He didn’t need to check in order to know what had happened.

Against his own body, against fate… Izuku Midoriya had given his life to protect his friends.

His grey eyes told the whole story, with no light shining within them. His body, still adorned in his Costume Omega, was cracked and broken, and his dismembered arm bled profusely until no blood came out.

Nagisa landed on the ground, kicking up dust as he stood at full height, Deku in his arms as he walked towards All Might, who had removed his armour by this point and was staring at the blue-haired teen in horror.

“No… no, no, no…” he muttered over and over again, running forward as Nagisa, his face now streaked with tears, held Deku out for All Might to accept. The hero did so, taking Deku in his arms and falling to his knees, trying desperately to resuscitate his student. “Midoriya, please! Please wake up!”

Class E gathered around as they watched All Might hopelessly pound his fists on Deku’s chest, looking on in horror as the Symbol of Peace broke down into tears. Drops of water splashed onto Deku’s broken armour, running into his uniform and down his lifeless body.

Aizawa watched on as All Might fought in vain to bring Deku back, his single eye wide in horror. Karasuma stood beside him, looking equally horrified at the sight of the dead hero, but seeming to want to try and capitalize on the situation. Turning to Aizawa with an expression of fury, he began shouting at him.

“They’re USED to fighting a war, are they?!” he screamed into Aizawa’s face, who turned and looked at the agent with a shocked expression as Karasuma lost his composure. “Sending CHILDREN to fight a war, and you have the GALL to stand there and call yourself a hero?!”

All around the field, Class A slowly got to their feet, every face showing tears as they watched their teacher fight against the fate that had befallen their friend. “M-Midoriya…?” Tsuyu asked, her voice trembling as she realised what had happened. Bakugo stared in silence, unable to comprehend what had just transpired before turning away, looking as though he didn’t want to accept the reality that he was facing, tears beginning to track down his face.

Nagisa knelt down next to All Might, catching the hero’s attention and making him look up with tear-stained eyes. “Well…” he choked out, holding Deku close as he glared at Nagisa. “You won. The villain is yours to fight against. Just… please… don’t take anything more away from me…”

“I would never” Nagisa responded instantly, causing All Might’s eyes to widen. The boy looked down at the deceased Deku, his eyes showing pain and loss as he continued. “I entered this fight thinking none of you understood what it meant to be a hero. He… he proved me wrong in every way”.

“He always managed to change people’s hearts somehow…” All Might let out a wet chuckle as he looked down at his student, the grey eyes staring blankly as the teacher let out a small sob. “I… I just have one request for you…”

“Anything” Nagisa said at once.

All Might looked up at him with a serious glare. “You took One For All for yourself. The power of heroes from across generations”. He raised his fist holding it out in front of him. “Promise me you will treat it well”.

Nagisa stared, shocked to hear the same words come from All Might that he had heard from Yoichi earlier, before he raised his own hand to meet Toshinori’s, bumping fists with the skeletal man as he let his tears fall. “I promise. I’ll… I’ll never be the hero Midoriya was… but I swear to do my best”.

All Might nodded, letting a small smile grace his lips as he stood up, pulling Deku into his arms as he looked up to face his students and his former opponents. “Class 1-A. We are leaving”.

“W-What?!” Bakugo choked out, looking as though he was going to physically explode as he marched over with fury in his features. “This bastard just killed our friend! MY BEST FRIEND!” His voice cracked as he tried to strike Nagisa, only for the smaller boy to catch it with ease. Bakugo tried again, and Nagisa countered again. This kept up until Bakugo lost his will to keep going, falling to his knees and finally breaking down, tears falling into the dirt as his fists rested on Nagisa’s chest.

“Please… please give him back…” he whispered, gritting his teeth as he fought to stop crying. “I… I was supposed to beat him… please give him back…”

“I’m sorry…” Nagisa replied quietly, letting his own face show as he gently grabbed Bakugo’s arms and lifted them off of him. “But I can’t”. Bakugo glared up at the boy, looking as though he was about to try and begin the fight once more… before he relented, getting to his feet and looking down at the ground.

“...listen to me and make sure you hear me” he said quietly, making Nagisa lean in. “You took my friend away from me. I will never forgive you”.

“I understand” Nagisa replied, but Bakugo held up a hand, silencing him.

“I want you to promise me something” he stated bluntly. Nagisa listened as Bakugo looked up, his face furious underneath the tears. “When you graduate from this place, you’re gonna enrol at UA. You’re gonna become the hero that De-... that Izuku will never get to be. You’ll join us as a hero… so that I can beat you”. He glared at Nagisa with an air of non-negotiable finality. “Do you understand me?”

Nagisa stood still for a brief second, seemingly speechless, before he nodded. “I promise. I’ll be the rival I took away from you. I… I will become a hero”.

Bakugo glared at Nagisa one last time, before nodding and walking away, not looking back once as he began to trudge down the mountain, looking like a shadow as he descended down the path. Around the field, Class A got the message and began to leave as well. Iida was helped to his feet by Uraraka, who turned to Kayano as she began to leave. Kayano looked back, the two sharing a silent conversation with just their eyes. Uraraka nodded at Nagisa, to which Kayano nodded in return, making Uraraka give a small smile as she walked down the mountain, assisting Iida until they were out of sight.

Aizawa stood there, now alone with no one but All Might there with him as Class E looked at him expectantly. He turned to look at Nagisa, who looked back at him with determined eyes. He gave a low growl, then spoke.

“I’ll see you in class, Shiota” he promised, making Nagisa’s eyes widen as the teacher walked away, not looking back as he disappeared into the trees. All Might watched after him, then turned to the assassin class with a look of sad grief as he tightened his grip on Deku’s body.

“I… I’m sorry for the trouble we’ve caused” he muttered, sounding hollow as he turned away;. A tentacle reached out and placed itself on the man’s shoulder, making him turn to look at Koro-Sensei, who looked down at him with guilt-ridden eyes.

“There is no need to apologise” he spoke, his voice hoarse. “We’ve all lost enough today. Please at least keep your pride about you. Your student was… IS a great hero”. All Might stared at the octopus, lost for words.

“I don’t understand…” he whispered, looking at Koro-Sensei in confusion. “You claim that you will destroy the Earth… yet you don’t play that part at all”.

Koro-Sensei nodded. “The destruction of the planet is not of my own choice” he replied. “I promise you that it was never my intention. I am comfortable telling you this with what has transpired here today”. He locked eyes with All Might, giving him a prolonged stare. “I promise that my students will ensure that I never commit the act that I promised all that time ago. They’re more than mere children”.

“They’re your students” All Might finished, giving a small smile as he looked around. “You have complete faith that they will stop you”.

Koro-Sensei nodded, his face changing colour to red with a circle adorning his face. “That is correct”.

All Might gave a final look around, then nodded at them all with a smile. The students returned the gesture, each of them hoping that Class A would recover from this loss. With one final shared look with Nagisa, who nodded silently, All Might turned and walked away, carrying Izuku Midoriya’s body with him as he disappeared down the mountain.

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

In Nagisa’s mind, his emotions were completely out of his control. Grief laced with pain filled his head, and he felt as though he might collapse at any moment.

Then, a hand reached out, placing itself on Nagisa’s shoulder. He turned to find himself in an identical replica of the Vestige Realm, with each of the previous wielders sitting in their thrones, all looking at him with expectant eyes. Before the blue-haired teen stood Izuku Midoriya himself, looking at Nagisa with a small smile.

“It’s okay” he whispered, making Nagisa’s eyes well up with tears as he pulled the boy into a hug. “We’re here for you”.

Nagisa stood there, then returned the hug, letting a smile grace his face as he held Deku’s Vestige in his arms, content that the world’s greatest hero would live on, even if it was just through him.

Conclusion[]

KO!

ARCTAS: Well... at least we know that Nagisa will honour Deku's legacy as best as he possibly can. So... how did we get here?

RUKASU: Class 1-A were a truly formidable force in every regard, and their teamwork combined with their other media appearances would be more than enough to stand up to most other opponents. However, Class 3-E just happened to be an exception to that statement.

ARCTAS: Yeah, we're gonna be here a while, so strap in! We'll break it down into five categories to help you keep track!

RUKASU: First of all is Physical Stats. Let's look at canon first. With only their baseline canon selves, Class A FAR outstripped Class E in every regard. The assassins may have survived Koro-Sensei's Absolute Defence explosion and taken blows from the mutated Shinigami, but the heroes have gone toe-to-toe with the likes of Shigaraki and All For One, who were capable of destroying entire countries by themselves, and combining that with Deku's feat of blowing apart a continental-sized storm places him fairly solidly above anything Class E has ever seen in canon. Aside from that, even Koro-Sensei's normal canon speed was outmatched by Deku's Gearshift and Bakugo's Cluster, meaning that the octopus teacher wouldn't be able to help much against the heroes.

ARCTAS: However, that might change when we factor the composite element! With this in mind, Class E would upgrade to be able to fight on-par with beings that can destroy whole planets! Plus, Koro-Sensei would have an entire universe inside of him that he could weaponise the energy from! How does Class A measure up?

RUKASU: Fairly easily, actually, thanks to their members being able to take a multiversal Big Bang directly and remain unharmed, which would be far above ANYTHING that Class E has handled. Adding on that Deku was able to fight on par with the likes of Goku thanks to Jump Force, and this is just about a runaway category for the heroes.

ARCTAS: However, there is one more factor to consider; Koro-Sensei can measure up to be equal with Deku thanks to J Stars Victory VS, equalling them out and possibly giving Koro-Sensei the speed edge, while leaving this category up in the air. However, we're more inclined to believe that Deku being able to take the Big Bang would put him on a higher level than Koro-Sensei at the end of the day, even if he would ultimately be slower!

RUKASU: Add on the fact that All Might, Bakugo, Uraraka, Todoroki, Ashido and Kirishima were ALSO there to take that same multiversal energy, and it results in the stats being taken by a hair by Class 1-A.

ARCTAS: But power isn't much without the Experience to utilise it to its maximum potential!

RUKASU: Class E have seen and survived multiple threats to their lives over the course of their year with Koro-Sensei, including insane Marine soldiers, countless highly-trained assassins, and even mutated antimatter monsters. They've seen plenty of life-threatening situations and came out of all of them with a better mindset.

ARCTAS: But Class A measured up and then-some thanks to the Paranormal Liberation War, which proved to be a huge danger to everyone in the country, not just them. Aside from that, Class A have been operating just a little bit longer than Class E, with their total combined experience totalling to almost two years if we include Deku's training with All Might! Add on Aizawa and All Might having long and extensive careers in hero work, ESPECIALLY with the latter's forty-plus years of being the country's Symbol of Peace, this category is easily given to the heroes.

RUKASU: Class E aren't out of the running, however, as Arsenal proved to be in their favour.

RUKASU: Class A may have had items to support their Quirks and their fighting styles, but not all of them were designed to be offensive gear. Their weaponry from the Loop and Overwatch were certainly formidable, but they wouldn't be anything that Class E couldn't deal with through their own expansive arsenal.

ARCTAS: Guns, knives, swords, and magic up the whistle combined with Koro-Sensei's and Kayano's proficient speed and agility thanks to their tentacles would be more than enough to overwhelm Class A's own stash of weapons and gear. Their PE suits would also negate several of the heroes' Quirks, like how they would be unaffected by Kaminari's lightning. Even Bakugo's dragon proved to be of little use against a being who could move faster than light!

RUKASU: Add on the explosives and secret aces that certain members of Class E like Takebayashi have hidden up their sleeves that would certainly catch Class A off--guard, and we have Class E gaining a solid victory in Arsenal.

ARCTAS: And they also score the point in Intelligence!

ARCTAS: This category is fairly simple, so we'll keep it brief. All Might may have over forty years of experience, but he's not exactly the smartest in terms of battle strategy. He's always relied on his Quirk and any Support Items he has access to like the Hercules Armour. This holds true for the students too, who rely on their Quirks more often than not to be able to hold their own in a fight, though Deku is a strong strategist and battle planner, in his defence. However, having only one strong strategist who can think on the fly does not a winning team make.

RUKASU: This is where we bring up a strong flaw in Class A's ranks; their reliance on their Quirks and, ultimately, their inadvertent reliance on Deku and All Might.

ARCTAS: Class A are all individually strong, and they work great in pairs or trios, but the hero class has never truly worked as a FULL CLASS before, unlike Class E, who have trained extensively to work as a single unit and cover every weak point! In terms of teamwork, it's much easier to pick apart Class A's strategy compared to Class E, especially when factoring how dear old Bakugo usually flies alone and leaves his teammates to fend for themselves, befitting his "strongest survive" mentality.

RUKASU: Aside from that, ALL of Class E are well-trained in battle IQ, strategy, and hand-to-hand, along with Karasuma and Irina being highly-trained by professional groups like the Ministry of Defence and Lovro. At the top of them all stand Koro-Sensei and Ritsu, who can combine their minds to create what would likely be the strongest strategic mind in the world. Koro-Sensei's assassination techniques and strategies combined with Ritsu's access to any information on the fly through the Internet, which would allow Class E to gain info on Class A and their Quirks outside of the heroes's control, equals out to a hive mind that is far more adaptable and flexible than Class A's reliance on their Quirks. Intelligence solidly goes to Class 3-E.

ARCTAS: Which leaves our final category; Abilities!

ARCTAS: Class A might SEEM like the stronger force in this regard thanks to their powerful Quirks, such as Todoroki's fire and ice, Bakugo's explosions, Iida's engines, and Deku's might proving to be more than enough to take down even the strongest of enemies! However, Class E had the perfect counter with their Bugs!

RUKASU: Aizawa's Erasure would be useless due to Bugs not being Quirks. Terasaka's liquid magic would be able to halt Iida's speed. Nakamura's status swap would be able to negate any damage taken from Todoroki's fire or Bakugo's explosions. Itona would be able to recreate all of Class A's Quirks thanks to his Imitation. Koro-Sensei's speed would be able to evade Todoroki's ice. Kurahashi's ability to summon insects proves to be a stronger calling than Koda's communication, even if she can only summon and not command. Most of all, Koro-Sensei's durable body and Demon King might would stand against Deku's strength and Quirks while being able to counter quickly.

ARCTAS: It's not ALL in favour of the assassins, though. Kirishima would still need to be overpowered directly thanks to his Hardening strengthening him specifically. All Might's armour, despite not being a Quirk, would be formidable enough to withstand Class E's Bugs while also dealing his own punch. And aside from Koro-Sensei, none of the assassin class are physically prepared to handle the likes of Deku going all out.

RUKASU: Leaving this debate perfectly balanced; Class A and Class E have multiple counters to each other, while also having weaknesses that balance out thanks to Class E's Bugs varying in combat reliance and Class A's Quirks requiring recovery periods, which ultimately leave this category as a perfect tie.

ARCTAS: Wait, what? I thought we agreed Class E won? Why is it a tie, did we forget some-

ARCTAS: ...one... okay, I see where this is going.

RUKASU: Yes, this debate WOULD be dead even... if Nagisa Shiota didn't happen to be a part of it.

ARCTAS: Let's break this down. With his Bug, Nagisa can do basically anything he wants, as long as the Bug cooperates, which it would thanks to Nagisa mastering it by the end of the series. This mastery would include buffing his strength and speed to limitless levels, which lets him handily take the Physical Stats without even lifting a finger!

RUKASU: Alongside that, the Bug allows Nagisa to utilize transformations and techniques used by other Shonen heroes, while also seemingly gaining the experience and understanding necessary to use them at their maximum potential such as the Kamehameha. Adding on that his Burliness Form gives Nagisa instant survival experience, and the assassin swoops away with the Experience category to do with as he pleases.

ARCTAS: We already established that Class E takes Arsenal and Intelligence, but we feel it worth noting that even if Class A DID win these points, Nagisa would just take them right back thanks to his Bug!

RUKASU: As stated before, he gains access to techniques and abilities used by other Shonen characters, which earns him the point in Arsenal through having an extensive Shonen history to pull from.

ARCTAS: And he takes Intelligence because it's entirely possible for the kid to just boost his mind to be able to outsmart Class A at every turn! We promise we aren't making this shit up, this is what happens when you take a grounded character and make them into a gag manga character; it's just inexplicable!

RUKASU: Which leaves the Abilities category, which Nagisa also steals away with due to... well, resetting all of reality, for one thing.

ARCTAS: This feat is far more impressive than it seems if we factor in all of the possible parallel universes that would be inside every Demon King within the world of Koro Q. Since it was established that Shiro keeps a huge castle FULL of Demon Kings waiting to replace the current one if it dies, along with him stating that he had even more in other areas around the world, there's no telling just how many Demon Kings there truly are, and yet, Nagisa still reset ALL of them! If we take this to mean that there are a limitless number of Demon Kings, then Nagisa's universal reset becomes a MULTIVERSAL reset, which means that Nagisa can pull off the Big Bang move that Class A survived... and then add a little more to make sure it works!

RUKASU: One may ask the question; what about Prometheus? Surely Deku's efforts against the Keymaster would make him more powerful than even Nagisa's absurd strength?

ARCTAS: That's where we kinda have to pull the rug out from under that feat; Deku never actually fought Prometheus himself. It was well-established within the travesty that was Jump Force's story that Prometheus was FAR above every other character in terms of power. It took the collective energy of ALL of the Shonen heroes combined, INCLUDING Deku, into an absorbable Spirit Bomb for the Avatar to even MEET that level of power. Deku himself doesn't even come close, meaning that he wouldn't actually be considered on-par, meaning that he and the rest of Class A would be facing someone that could be on Prometheus's level, if not above, and they have no way of getting around it.

RUKASU: Alongside his... absurd statements of power, however, Nagisa's Bug can also give him access to a myriad of transformations, techniques and abilities... and even more with information from his allies.

ARCTAS: Yeah, let's explain what happened in detail with the whole "stealing One For All" thing. We established already that Ritsu would be able to get into UA's servers and gain access to all the information pertaining to Class A and their Quirks, which would allow Class E to form a strategy that capitalized on their weaknesses. However, DEKU'S Quirk was never officially logged, only ever being named "Super Power" in official servers, which WOULD leave him a mystery to start with!

RUKASU: However, Class E has a counter for that; Fuwa's Bug allows her to gain items and weapons that should normally be impossible to obtain, which includes manga volumes from OUR real world. Through this, Fuwa could simply grab a copy of the My Hero Academia manga and research into Deku's Quirk, which would let the assassin class find out about One For All in high detail.

ARCTAS: Naturally, they would find out it can be stolen by All For One, which would lead to Nagisa using his Bug to copy the ability-stealing Quirk to use against Deku, something we’ve seen him do in Koro Q multiple times. Why wouldn't they go after anyone else with this, you ask? Simple; Deku's the biggest threat on the field, so Class E, or more specifically Nagisa, would be searching for ways to neutralise him as soon as possible.

RUKASU: Since Nagisa's Bug is powered by his willpower to stand up and protect his friends, it's more than likely that it would increase to the point of being able to overcome Deku's own willpower, along with the willpower of the One For All Vestiges. After all that, all Nagisa would have to do is get in close for a quick steal, but he would have to neutralise Deku himself first.

ARCTAS: Which is where the Clap Stunner and the Kiss of Death come in, trademark Lovro and Bitch-Sensei! One smooch from Nagisa and Deku would be out for the count, leaving One For All wide open!

RUKASU: Deku WOULD be able to stay in the fight after One For All's theft, thanks to Costume Omega being able to replicate his lost Quirks to the best of its ability, but at that point, it would already be over; Nagisa would have access to his Bug, One For All, all of it's in-laid Quirks, and all the possible stats necessary to take on Class A as a whole by himself, all while probably also revising his Math homework. This ultimately gives Nagisa the EXTREME edge in Abilities AND in this fight as a whole.

ARCTAS: Really, this fight wouldn't play out any differently if it was JUST Composite Nagisa against Class A; even without any info that could neutralise the heroes, the kid would still have the stats, abilities, intelligence, experience and the arsenal to take the win. Hell, all he'd need to do is go Super Saiyan and beat the crap out of the hero class to win! Class A wouldn't be able to stop him!

RUKASU: But remember; Nagisa ISN'T alone here, and the rest of Class E bringing their own A-game only further drives in the nail in the metaphorical coffin for Class A, proving that the edge of an assassin's blade is mightier than the brute force of a hero's fist. However... maybe that's the point.

ARCTAS: Heroes are supposed to be a shining example of the best of us. They're supposed to stand strong against any threat together, no matter how impossible the odds look to anyone else. Even when it looks hopeless, a hero's job is to stand tall and fight anyway. Class A shows that perfectly; they still chose to fight All For One despite his seemingly invincible power. They chose to fight Shigaraki despite the fear he imposed. This all means that they would choose to fight Class E, even if they were outmatched in every way.

RUKASU: In contrast, no one in Class E ever claimed to be a hero, and they were certainly never looked up to by anyone... at least to start. They don't stand proudly in the face of danger, they don't fight for what they think is right through the odds. They fought to save the world from Koro-Sensei, and they were willing to use any strategy to do so. This was just as much a moral clash as it was a physical one; Class A's heroic nature and strong attitude simply couldn't stand against Class E's killing intent and willingness to do anything to win.

ARCTAS: What Class A sees as a villain's work would ultimately be second-nature to Class E. They're not heroes, they're assassins, and they're damn proud of it too. Both of these classes have a drastically different outlook on life, and those outlooks are exemplified perfectly in their main students.

RUKASU: Deku is the guy who will not hesitate to stand up for you and protect you against any threat. He'll ensure you're okay with revenge never crossing his mind, because he truly believes it's the right thing to do to help everyone he can, because that's what All Might taught him.

ARCTAS: Nagisa, meanwhile, is the guy who will talk with you, ensure you're okay, and then work with his friends to get back at the guy who wronged you. He'll plan a full-on killing mission when he and his friends feel like they've been wronged, because that's what Koro-Sensei taught him.

RUKASU: Class A's composited heroic strength and experience proved to be the biggest challenge of Class E's lives, especially factoring all of their Quirks and respective strengths, but even the might of the heroes failed to overcome Class E's composited intelligence, arsenal, equivalent abilities, and... Nagisa. Just Nagisa, we cannot stress how much that kid carries his class's side of the debate.

ARCTAS: Class 1-A went Beyond every limit they could, but ultimately... they met their End.

RUKASU: The winner is Class 3-E.

Connections[]

• Classes of teenage anime heroes who are given the mission of saving their worlds against overwhelming odds and threats to their and their loved ones's lives (Class E having to kill Koro-Sensei before he blew up the Earth, and Class A training as heroes to both save civilians and stop the League of Villains)
• Their main threat is revealed to be a mad experimenter who augments his own body with his discoveries and choosing to use science in selfish desire (Shiro and All For One), attempting on many occasions to kill both classes and their teachers (Shiro wished to kill Koro-Sensei and make him feel emotional agony by also targeting the students he promised to protect, while All For One wished to kill All Might and end the concept of peace and heroes while also trying to finally putting the legacy of One For All to an end)
• They are also forced to face off against a young man with white hair that has been augmented by the main antagonist, who start out as simple enemies before evolving into the biggest threats of their lives, all because they felt as though they were betrayed by the classes main teachers (the Shinigami, a former student of Koro-Sensei, and Tomura Shigaraki, who had been ostracised for having a "villainous Quirk" and felt as though he had been left behind by All Might)
• Both classes are given protection and financial augmentation by their respective world's governments, giving them access to items that would assist them in helping to protect their worlds and defeat their enemies (Class E were given the Anti-Sensei weaponry and access to government funding (as depicted by Kayano's giant pudding scheme) to kill Koro-Sensei, while Class A were allowed to enact research into Support Items that augmented their Quirks and helped them fight better as both heroes and a team)
• The classes themselves are connected as follows:
  • A yellow-themed, ever-smiling mentor who originally began as inexperienced in teaching, but slowly learn to become the mentor their children need while also never forgetting their origin as simple men who were given their respective chances to be heroes to these children by a female friend (Koro-Sensei and All Might)
  • A more controlled and deadpan special agent who watches over their respective classes with a stern yet thoughtful eye, even being seen by many of the students as the class father who steps up and tackles threats when the students can't (Tadaomi Karasuma and Shota Aizawa)
  • A young and hopeful note-taker, and the successor to the main teacher, who starts their journey as weak and without hope, only to be picked up and inspired by the main mentor, but who also possess dangerous potential if not raised right thanks to their upbringing, until they accept that part of themselves, learning to value their own lives and fight for their friends no matter the cost (Nagisa Shiota and Izuku Midoriya)
  • A boastful, arrogant prodigy who possesses high talent for their respective areas while being best friends to the main character, starting out as brash and impulsive before slowly understanding that they can't face everything in life alone, ultimately accepting that their friend is better than them and requesting to be forgiven (Karma Akabane and Katuski Bakugo)
  • A young and bubbly young girl who is happy-go-lucky and encouraging, beginning as overall selfish who only partakes in their classes missions for their own goals, but slowly become genuine due to the main character's honesty and genuine attempts to be friends (Kaede Kayano and Ochako Uraraka)
  • A withdrawn and seemingly cold loner, who slowly comes out of their shell after their respective classes help them see that they don't always need to be strong to live the life they want (Itona Horibe and Shoto Todoroki)
  • A strongman who begins their story as someone wanting to simply be strong, only for their true reasoning to be revealed that they don't want to be seen as weak in classes filled with strong-willed talents (Ryoma Terasaka and Eijiro Kirishima)
  • A young and mischievous girl who is very outspoken about their opinions and beliefs, especially in terms of romance, before slowly understanding the true meaning of consequence and learning to understand their peers and respect their boundaries (Rio Nakamura and Mina Ashido)
  • An honourable and kind young man who becomes the class representative, wanting nothing more but to see themselves and their friends succeed even at the cost of themselves, while also fighting to ensure the safety and stability of their families (Yuma Isogai and Tenya Iida)
  • A womaniser that actually has the potential to be a talent if they let themselves truly focus (Hiroto Maehara and Denki Kaminari)
  • A hopeless pervert who tries their best to win in love, only to be shut down again and again (Taiga Okajima and Minoru Mineta)

• Other than their standard classes, they are both also in contact and friends with a more sexually-defined agent who assists them in their missions whenever they can (Irina Jelavic and Midnight) and a highly intelligent principal who would prefer that they work for themselves but does assist them on occasion (Gakuho Asano and Nezu)
• Both classes are faced with adversity from their schoolmates due to their positions in their respective schools, being called out and mocked by their peers for being part of their class simply due to their existence by the other classes's respective leaders (Gakushuu Asano and Neito Monoma) [in contrast, class E were mocked and bullied for being the bottom rung in a high-standard school, while class A were ridiculed and challenged for being the top of the ladder at the most prestigious hero school in Japan]
• Both classes are constantly put at risk due to their association with their main teacher thanks to their status and past (Koro-Sensei as the God of Death and All Might as the Symbol of Peace), which often makes them question if they are cut out for the life that they are ultimately choosing to lead
• In addition, some other class members are linked in more ways then one:
  • The withdrawn talent that grew their strengths due to abuse from their parent (Nagisa and Todoroki)
  • The explosive strong loner who learn to grow past their bully persona and become a better person (Terasaka and Bakugo)
  • The green-haired secret keeper who possesses the same powers as their teacher (Kayano and Midoriya)

• Both classes are faced with an ultimatum near the end of their series due to the actions of the main character (Nagisa and Midoriya), where they make actions that force their close friends (Karma and Bakugo) to step up and put their intentions into question. This culminates in a standoff where both pairs of friends come to understand each other better than before, and resolve to move forward with an improved mindset (Nagisa and Karma looked past each other's shells of blood-lust to see their true selves and become close after Nagisa's defeat of Karma, while Izuku and Bakugo faced off on multiple occasions, becoming closer as friends/rivals each time until Bakugo breaks down his actions to Izuku during his Vigilante phase, which is ultimately what convinces him to return to his class after leaving them behind)
• Ultimately, however, both of these classes reach the same result as a group; they become like a family that are led by their respective father-like teachers (Karasuma and Aizawa), with the main characters looking up to their main teacher as their own personal father figure (Nagisa to Koro-Sensei and Midoriya to All Might)
• By the end of their stories, both classes successfully save their worlds at the heavy cost of lives that they would have preferred to save (Shigaraki and Koro-Sensei), but they grow up to become successful and happy within their own rights, with the main character even becoming a teacher like their inspirations (Nagisa became a teacher of delinquents in the hopes to guide them out of their darkness like Koro-Sensei, while Izuku became a teacher of hopeful heroes in the hopes of continuing to share his dream with the future generations)
