Chapter 47: Chapter 47
Back in the stadium Bakugo had refused to leave on a stretcher and stood up stubbornly and walked to the break room where the rest of the class was sitting. Midnight had announced a fifteen minutes break so before starting the match for the 3rd rank.
Recovery girl used her quirk and gave some medicines and told Bakugo that he would be back in optimum condition in 10 minutes. David was drinking juice while Mina and Kaminari were asking him questions about how he survived the explosion to which, David just kept them guessing.
Just then Bakugo suddenly called his name and the whole class became quiet and looked at him.
'Why does this feel like deja vu? Didn't something similar happen with Midoriya-Kun a few hours ago?' Uraraka thought. She had never actively spoken to David but she had seen that he wasn't too arrogant like Bakugo nor was he too childish like Kaminari.
"What is it Bakugo?" David asked
"You were holding back from the start, weren't you? Even at the USJ incident, it wasn't me that defeated the nomu" Bakugo asked.
"What are you saying Kacchan? It was you that defeated the nomu" Midoriya said.
"Bakugo what are you talking about? I was there when you defeated that nomu by breaking the transparent coating covering the brain and then you exploded the brain. I saw you" Todoroki said with a frown.
"What are you implying Bakugo?" David asked in a cold tone.
"IT WAS YOU...you defeated the nomu. I wasn't even able to scratch the coating covering the brain and suddenly his brain exploded and when I saw back you were panting while you had already defeated your enemies way before that. You even took care of the other villains without even breaking a sweat. You weren't surprised or scared when they showed up to kill us." Bakugo said and his classmates couldn't believe what they just heard. They looked towards David for confirmation.
"It's time for your match." David said and left the room.
"Bastard" Bakugo muttered under his breath and left the room as well followed by Iida and the rest of the class.
'Why is there a fight for the 3rd position and why hasn't Iida received a call about his brother being hospitalized? The changes have started to show earlier than I expected. And Endeavor was supposed to confront Deku before his match with Todoroki. Even that didn't happen maybe because I had already forced Todoroki to use his fire in the cavalry battle.' David was thinking while Bakugo and Iida were fighting. Iida had used his best move Recipro burst from the start of the match and even with that, he was narrowly escaping Bakugo's explosions. The move couldn't be used for a long time as it put too much pressure on Iida's engines. After a while, Iida had significantly slowed down and Bakugo used a few explosions followed by a kick to throw Iida out of bounds.
"The winner of this match and the 3rd ranked is Katsuki Bakugo" Midnight shouted and the spectators cheered. Even though Bakugo who wanted to be first was frustrated with this fact, he couldn't do anything except train harder. But what he didn't know was that Deku's heart was in more turmoil.
'I am not even half as strong as them. Even though I have the quirk as the number 1 hero, I can't make it past the quarter-finals. All Might must be so disappointed in me.' Midnight's announcement pulled him out of his thoughts.
"The next match is the match we have all been waiting for... The finals of the UA Sports festival
Fire and Ice vs Fire and Air
Shoto Todoroki vs David Carter" Everyone was getting more and more restless by just listening to the commentary as they knew this match was going to be a big one.
'Come on Shoto...show him who you are' Endeavor was rooting for his son hard from his seats.
Todoroki looked at David with a stern and deep look but David still had a bored expression on his face. Todoroki sent a big chunk of ice towards David to which David just flicked his fingers and the entire ice was cut in half. David threw an air punch towards Todoroki who created an ice wall to block it but the air shattered the wall completely. The air even pushed Todoroki backward and he created an ice wall behind him as well to stay in the ring.
Todoroki threw fire from his hands towards David knowing that it wouldn't be of much use but he wanted to block David's view. David emitted his fire which quickly consumed the red fire and created a massive wall of purple fire and smoke. David used an air scooter and rushed out of the smoke and this caught Todoroki off-guard. In a panic, he sent a block of ice towards David, and instead of destroying it David had the air scooter move on the ice block and looked down on Todoroki.
"Stop messing with me and use your full power" Todoroki shouted to which David only shrugged his shoulders. He spread both his palms downwards and purple fire came out of it but instead of spreading in the air it started flowing down like a liquid and the moment it touched the ice block the ice melted at an alarming rate. David didn't move from his place but all the ice under him melted within 5 seconds.
'This fire is like a liquid' Aizawa narrowed his eyes.
The fire was slowly spreading towards the entire ring and Todoroki was standing on the other end of the ring. Todoroki could feel the heat from the purple fire. He tried to use Ice but the ice melted even before it could touch the fire. Slowly Todoroki was being pushed towards the border of the ring. Whatever he was trying fire or ice both were unaffected. In the end, he could nothing just create a blast by combing fire and ice. The entire stadium was surrounded by bright light. They all could feel the pressure of the fire and ice fusion.
BOOOOOM!!!
The whole stadium shook. Not even pro heroes could handle such offensive power. They all expected David to be unconscious but there he was still in the ring with almost everything around him destroyed.
"Seems like I will have to end this match now. You have already used your full power." David smiled as he broke his knuckles.
