[MHCISQD] Chapter 160: The Direction of Ultimate Move
Added 2023-05-01 20:39:44 +0000 UTCTraining Ultimate Move has become the main task for Class A students recently.
Everyone is highly motivated for this training, but at the same time, most of them are under a lot of stress. After all, Ultimate Move is not something that can be easily achieved.
Among the Class A members, only Renault, Iida, Bakugo, and Todoroki have been able to develop an Ultimate Move.
In addition to them, Midoriya has exceptional destructive power, but it's only limited to his physical strength and cannot be considered a true Ultimate Move. He also hasn't fully utilized the advantages of his Quirk.
Similarly, Tokoyami is also very talented, but his fighting style is limited to using Dark Shadow.
Therefore, it's very difficult to develop a true Ultimate Move that suits one's own Quirk.
In this training, Ectoplasm is the main trainer. His Quirk allows him to create enough clones to provide training partners for everyone. Even if a clone is destroyed, he can immediately create a new one.
On the sidelines, Ectoplasm asked Aizawa, "What is that kid, Renault, doing by himself?"
"Who knows," Aizawa replied, not understanding why Renault was sitting alone.
"Don't worry about Renault's training, let him handle it himself," suddenly, All Might's voice came from behind, and Aizawa and the others saw All Might, with bandages on his hands, walking into the gym.
"Hey! I wasn't called here, but I came anyway!" All Might said with a smile.
"Please focus on your recovery for next semester," Aizawa said helplessly, looking at All Might.
After finishing his sentence, All Might reverted back to his original form from his muscular form and walked while saying, "How cold. Isn't this the course to develop Ultimate Moves? I can't be absent. After all, I'm a teacher too."
"What did you mean by telling us not to worry about Renault?"
"Well, hahaha, I have some guesses. His Quirk requires more time to develop Ultimate Moves than other people's Quirks, so he might be thinking of other ways to improve." As he spoke, All Might looked over at Midoriya, who was closest to him.
Midoriya was obviously very confused at this point. Although he was able to control One For All to a certain extent and had developed the Full Cowl, his level of development was not high. To increase his offensive ability, he would have to injure his own arms, which was definitely not a viable option and had already been rejected by Midoriya.
This was training for developing Ultimate Moves, not desperate measures. In addition, stable techniques would definitely be more effective in rescue and other missions.
All Might slowly walked over to Midoriya and called him over.
Aizawa watched his actions and raised an eyebrow.
It seemed that after his physical condition was exposed and he approached retirement, All Might had put more thought into teaching and became even more like a teacher than before.
"Well, that's good. If he still had the idea of continuing to go to the front line, that would be troublesome," Aizawa shook his head and walked to the other side, preparing to give his students some advice.
Just before he left, he noticed a book that All Might had put in his back pocket.
"Anyone Can Become a Good Teacher, Simple Education Theory?" Aizawa was stunned and widened his eyes when read the book's title. "No wonder he's making such rapid progress. He's been taking extra lessons."
In the evening, the training ended, and Renault woke up from his motionless state and stretched lazily.
"Uhh~ I almost fell asleep."
"..." His words caused the people around him to be dumbfounded. Almost fell asleep? We thought you were seriously training!
Renault smiled and replied, "Well, don't look at me like that. I already have a clue of my Ultimate Move, that's why I can relax like this. But seeing how tired you all are, it must be hard."
"Did you not notice your surrounding at all?" asked Kirishima, whose body was covered in dirt.
"Nope, after all, I can maintain a high level of concentration even in the midst of chaos," Renault said as he stood up and dusted off his pants. "Let's go, it's time to go back. I still have to prepare dinner. Since you guys have been working so hard, I'll make you my specialty dish. It's a recipe that was passed down to me by my grandparents and it's not something that ordinary people can taste."
"Wow! A feast!"
"Meat! Meat!"
As Renault had promised, he prepared a large amount of ingredients for dinner and was ready to make a great meal. After all, it was his first time making dinner for the entire class at once.
Although Aizawa later said that if they didn't want to cook in the dormitory, they could go to the cafeteria to eat or pay extra to have a chef come in and cook for them. However, in the end, the Class A students continued to vote to cook for themselves.
"Beef brisket, ground beef, pork chops, pork belly, cod, cabbage, potatoes, carrots, bell peppers..." Renault finished counting all the ingredients and then started to work with Midoriya and the others.
However, Midoriya seemed a bit distracted at this point.
"What's wrong, are you still thinking about today's training? Is there no progress? I think you came back a little later than usual," Renault asked while cutting meat.
Midoriya, who was washing vegetables, also realized this and smiled and said, "Ahh, I did run into a bit of a difficulty, but it's been resolved. From now on, I'll just have to practice repeatedly."
Then, Midoriya briefly explained the direction of his future training. Renault knew about One For All, so Midoriya didn't mind sharing his thoughts with him.
"Kicking techniques? That's actually a good development direction. And the attack range will be further than just using fists, which can have unexpected effects. If we can also make some improvements to the hero costume, it could become Ultimate Move," Renault nodded in agreement after hearing Midoriya's thoughts, "If you need help, you can tell me. I've been practicing martial arts for a long time and can give you some advice."
"Really? Can I ask you for some time after dinner, Renault-kun?" Although Midoriya had learned some essentials from Iida, he still felt like it wasn't enough.
"Of course, let's call it post-dinner training. I also want to see your mastery of your Quirk," Renault had no objections. He usually trained at night and having a training partner or not wouldn't make a difference.
