Chapter 59: Outburst of Power
Added 2023-03-12 19:08:36 +0000 UTCRenault didn't know what the redhead was reminiscing about, but he was just quietly waiting. Sure enough, after almost a minute, Todoroki Shoto, who was lying on the ground, slowly stood up and said with his head down, "I want to become a Pro Hero, a great hero like All Might. This is what I told my mother in the past, and I will definitely do it..."
Standing still, Todoroki Shoto's left side began to burn with fierce flames, while his right side also emitted a hint of cold air. Meeting Renault's gaze, Todoroki Shoto said, "Let's continue, Renault."
Renault also showed an excited smile and said, "This is more like it!"
The ground under their feet cracked as Renault rushed towards Todoroki Shoto. Todoroki Shoto calmly swung his left hand.
"Boom!"
Intense flames erupted, engulfing Renault's figure.
"It's not over yet..."
As someone who had battled Renault before, Todoroki Shoto knew that this move could not defeat him. So before the smoke cleared, he took a deep breath and swung his right hand from bottom to top.
The same move he had used before appeared again, freezing half of the arena.
All the Class A students, including Bakugo Katsuki and Midoriya Izuku, who had just arrived, stood up and stared at the giant iceberg in front of them.
"Crack..."
"Crack..."
"Bang!"
Covering his face with his hand, Todoroki Shoto looked at Renault, who had no injuries except for a little burn mark on his clothes, gasping for breath and quickly thawing the right side of his body with his burning ability.
As Renault watched the scene, he did not act but exclaimed, "So that's it. Using just one Quirk can cause an overload, but if you combine it with another Quirk, you can alleviate that problem. Not only can you continue to fight, but you can also alternate between them, catching villains off guard. No wonder Endeavor said that you could become a top hero, even surpassing All Might."
"I don't know if I can surpass him, I just want to become a hero like All Might. But for now, I just want to defeat you."
Slowly lowering his body, ice and flames appeared simultaneously as Todoroki Shoto said, "If this drags on, I know I probably don't have much chance of winning. Although it's a bit shameless, I'm putting everything on the line for this move, to decide the outcome in one blow."
"No, I think that's good too. Then, I'll use this move to answer you."
Slowly floating up, Renault took a deep breath and raised his hands.
The air gradually condensed above his head and quickly formed a transparent sphere that was nearly three meters in diameter.
Rotation, control, compression, analysis, disintegration...
In truth, Renault hadn't yet completed this move, and it consumed a terrifying amount of energy. Furthermore, Renault had other ways to end the fight besides this.
However, compared to evading or using reflection to withstand the impact, Renault now wanted to collide head-on.
"Zi... zi..."
The sphere became even more condensed, emitting a strange glow, and the wind began to affect the entire arena.
"As I expected, you never used your full strength, did you? During training class," Todoroki Shoto said calmly as he watched the commotion that Renault caused.
"You're the same, aren't you? Of course, I've always been serious during training," Renault replied, not in a good condition, as his stamina was severely depleted.
Taking a deep breath, he continued, "You know, this isn't a place to risk your life."
"Ah, it's not a place to risk your life, but it's a place where I want to use all my strength and leave no regrets."
Nodding, Todoroki Shoto smiled for the first time on his face.
"Bring it on!"
The flames and cold air burst out even more violently. Looking at the smile on Todoroki Shoto's face, Endeavor in the audience was excited and walked down to the edge of the audience area, saying, "Have you finally come to accept your strength? That's right, very good! This match will be a new starting point for you. Inherit my bloodline, surpass me, and then go and achieve my ambition!"
In the broadcast room, Present Mic looked at the scene and said helplessly, "Mr. Endeavor is very excited. Is he cheering on his son?"
Renault also heard Endeavor's voice and glanced at him before looking at Todoroki Shoto.
"He really is an unpleasant father. I really want to give him a beating if I have the chance."
"There will definitely be a chance. Count me in," Todoroki Shoto grinned and tilted his body.
Huge ice pillars spread out, and then the flames on his right hand followed closely behind, burning the entire arena with a high temperature that no one could approach, rushing towards Renault.
"Oi oi oi! Is this still a student's match?"
"This is too exaggerated!"
In the audience area, the Pro Heroes and ordinary people who came to watch were stunned by this scene.
"This is getting interesting! Let me see what you've got, Todoroki-kun!" Renault was not afraid at all, manipulating a compressed ball with terrifying power and going head-to-head with Todoroki.
Besides the arena, Midnight went directly to Cementoss and said, "Hurry up erect barriers! If they use this move, it will be really serious! Do these two not use their brains?"
"Understood!"
Cementoss did not hesitate to open the cement pipeline next to him and control the continuous flow of cement to erect barriers in the center of the arena. However, can the hastily formed barriers really withstand the long-accumulated ultimate moves from these two people?
"Boom!!!"
In less than a second, the five cement walls were instantly destroyed. Ice pillars, flames, and gusts collided with each other, producing a deafening roar and causing waves that shook the entire arena. Everyone instinctively lowered their bodies and held onto whatever they could to prevent themselves from being blown away.
On the teacher's stand, All Might and other teachers sat together, nervously watching the explosion on the field. Compared to other teachers, All Might's face showed less concern and more admiration.
These two young men have already qualified to become Pro Heroes...
After a full minute, the explosion on the scene finally subsided. Because the gusts, flames, and ice were intertwined, almost everyone was affected. But because the venue was large enough, even if the effects spread, no one was injured.
As the smoke gradually dissipated, everyone nervously looked at the field. Who won?
Finally, on the almost completely damaged field, Renault stood calmly in the center, but he stood where Todoroki Shoto was before. Todoroki Shoto, on the other hand, was lying on the ground in front of Renault, breathing heavily.
The victory was decided.
