Shimmering into existence, a strange yellow creature appears in front of Bakugo.
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqpmH9GhXgQ
Present Mic: “And there it is! The secret technique Kanto has been teasing this whole festival! But wait a minute! Isn’t this supposed to be a 1v1? How is that fair!?”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv5JCerHuhr
Sabrina: “Don’t worry. I won’t fight as long as Kadabra, a mental projection I created, is on the field. And half the damage done to it goes to me. And vice versa.”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡytO4TCK7M5
She says while sitting down in a meditative position. It only takes a moment before Midnight agrees to the strategy.
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡINEV3YJlso
Midnight: “I allow it! If Kadabra or Sabrina is knocked out, Bakugo wins!”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkDtHoE0Zf8
Jiro: “Why do I think she only agreed because she likes Kanto?”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEQPQ2VI0bG
Uraraka: “That’s not fair. Bakugo was so close.”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiSmTkYUOUc
Tokoyami: “Concealing your advantages is another part of battle. She was wise to keep it hidden until now.”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuXvicfTQW8
Uraraka: “I know… but still.”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡovzu7T1P71
She looks at Bakugo, who breathes out hot air before nodding his head. He won’t complain; that doesn’t solve anything.
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPeN5DdoPQ8
So he surges forward, not at the creature, but at Sabrina. Midnight did say Kadabra or Sabrina.
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvwZbpiIH7L
However-
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyHlvPM2D5Y
Sabrina: “Teleport. Reflect.”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkVtc2jlZjA
Before Bakugo can reach her, Kadabra teleports in front of him and tanks the blast meant for Sabrina.
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAODCEr6t0F
Bakugo: “Tch.”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5qaS3Zxn6W
The boy backs off as the smoke clears, revealing a floating Kadabra surrounded by a rainbow shell.
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm7N4Y5Urju
Sabrina: “Kinesis.”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyn2jMbhWwQ
Kadabra locks eyes with Bakugo, and suddenly his vision gets darker. He can barely see; it’s like he’s nearsighted!
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ96JfAMCpOu
Bakugo: “W-What did you do?!”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcjHOfMMybx
Sabrina: “Psybeam.”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVtotSsHamN
Rainbow energy gathers in Kadabra’s eyes before shooting towards Bakugo. He is able to dodge, but only barely.
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2EGeWIxxS5
Forgoing Sabrina and focusing on the creature, he charges forward and unleashes a barrage of mini-bombs. But they are noticeably weaker than before.
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhFcHXPz9Dn
What’s worse, the shield was tanking everything.
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhUkAkKY9Fo
Sabrina: “And the finale, Disable.”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ5Sryi9qY2
Kadabra’s eyes once more shine; this time it’s a bright light that cuts through the smoke and hits Bakugo in the eyes.
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqgt3CSGflx
At that moment, his body was locked up. He growled, demanding his body to move, but it wouldn’t.
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrzH5sDxovW
Sabrina: “It lasts only 10 seconds. But that’s more than enough.”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvSqEfIC4R9
Kadabra lifts his hands, and Bakugo is lifted while constrained by a blue aura.
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVcSAlaSdiz
Bakugo: ‘No… No! Not like this!’
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTcATzpqnuk
Through sheer fucking will, Bakugo squeezed the last of his strength to explode himself straight toward Sabrina. This completely took her off guard, and so she was rammed by the Bakugo missile.
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpsikRTGwAa
Sabrina: “Kadabra!”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoUwqsHSU7r
But before Sabrina could fall onto the grass behind her, Kadabra flung Bakugo away. A second later, they both landed on the grass.
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGwmHeFi7TE
Midnight: “Double ring out! It’s a tie!”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyeahtmKcaV
Present Mic: “Well, would you look at that! Our first tie right before the final battle! Since both students seem like they have fight left in them, we’ll have to think of a tie-breaker! Sick around, folks, the finale is almost here!”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQanMVryXMq
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNoxbmTNPun
Despite that, however, Bakugo had other plans.
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMIrshvqHrE
Bakugo: “I refuse.”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZirP0M5SlS
Midnight: “Say what?”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmPTCepMKOH
Bakugo was in the nurse's office, getting his arms healed after straining them beyond the limit.
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEjVaOZdgUM
Bakugo: “A draw means nothing. It’s worth nothing. That’s not a victory, and I refuse to go along with any sort of bullshit ideas you guys have for a tiebreaker. I lost, so just give Kanto second place. I don’t care. I’ll just win for real next time.”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcf0hs8LQR2
Midnight and Present Mic look at each other before sighing.
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNCkTibvhJO
Midnight: “Fine. If that’s what you want.”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7fJO2219uO
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuucaZYkZRk
Present Mic: “Well, due to Bakugo thinking a draw is as good as a loss, that means the finale is on!! Kanto or Tae, class 1-B or class 1-A, which one will go home with the gold!!?”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJkLtpot5Eb
Uraraka: “What!?”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpfdiqi8nOp
Jiro: “Didn’t see that coming.”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdSH8VFcuc0
Uraraka: “After all that about being number one, and he just-”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8xelWsctT8
Izuku: “I get it.”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTbfO8wuva9
The class looks up to see Izuku coming down from the steps.
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWP8eWo2Uia
Momo: “Midoriya, where were you!?”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ71LyJC3BFc
Izuku: “I… just needed some time to think. That’s not important right now. I’m just as surprised as you, Uraraka, but I do understand.”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDb9UZXxTJ0
Uraraka: “Then why?”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmMtC6XgQLk
Izuku: “Because Kacchan wants a complete victory, one that can’t be questioned. A draw can be questioned. Any tie-breaker game won’t help either. It’s not a real fight, and so not a victory, even if he did win.”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRPLh01NEJm
Uraraka: “But he could have won the tie-breaker and then beat Tae, becoming number one!”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡII44mOTHuK
Izuku: “… That’s not the number one he wants to be.”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlssK1Q23Ja
Kirishima: “Hmmmm, it might have been best to stop anyway. He really pushed himself past the limit. Kanto is pretty banged up, but she still has that mental projection thing.”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw2cnvjbSGM
Denki: “Sounds like you’re saying Bakugo couldn’t win regardless.”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV0yis9CVya
Kirishima: “I’m not saying that! Just that it would be harder, is all.”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHsamzd9Xnd
Sero: “You guys obsess over being number one too much. What’s wrong with 3rd place?”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVogL8CsIyG
Uraraka: “Nothing, but-”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlE8FicKqcI
Izuku: “Sero’s right. Chasing the best can backfire. Giving your all is enough.”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBNszXud5H2
He thinks back to Endeavor, clear evidence that proves his claim.
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCiLYQD9naL
Uraraka: “Then what about Tae? You threw the match.”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0jijO9VVh2
Kirishima: “Yeah, what was with that?”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9LkvplBmkH
Izuku: “It’s not like that! I was just surprised by… Kiri’s crying.”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy3iRT1LICQ
Kirishima: “Wait, what!?”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqwkekcaxsp
Mina: “Whoa.”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCz4K1Ddz9F
Momo: “Is she alright?”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCk4isSjNNI
Izuku: “Well… you don’t have to worry about it. I’ll handle it.”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyLh9R2A3gl
Kirishima: “Hard not to worry when she’s fighting next.”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhiFC42aFj5
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8HNGohtcId
At last, the finale. The contestants were given five minutes to prepare while the stage was repaired. The day was dragging; it was time to end this.
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfJq9NBemuE
Present Mic went through his usual spiel and the match began. But Kiri didn’t move.
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq2l5jHpKoA
She didn’t care anymore. The sounds of confusion didn’t help calm her mind. Right now, she was just waiting for Kanto to ring her out. To be done with this.
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPy2VtL4r8L
But that changed when Kano opened her mouth to speak.
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH1vOg4291f
Sabrina: “I know what you are.”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSoSCbZMRgt
Kiri: “… What?”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbkOJH5qVna
Sabrina: “You shouldn’t be in this tournament. A mental projection, no matter how real it may seem, is not a real person. That’s as if Tokoyami wanted his Dark Shadow to compete.”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa4K9FXZsD3
Kiri: “… You’re right.”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlvTOZ7HYe1
Sabrina: “Then why are you still here?”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHupxoiHkTR
Kiri: “… Because… ”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5c96TTAJUY
Kiri: ‘If he doesn’t need me… why am I fighting?’
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQAwiRXR1R7
Sabrina: “Is it because he can’t let go?”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSjXStEQ2PD
Her head shoots up, and she looks at Sabrina.
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCR5yFjLLqV
Kiri: “What do you mean?”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9nwHX3tZzA
Sabrina: “A similar thing happened to me before I met my friends. I split off a part of myself, creating a mental projection born from my repressed desire for friendship. One that contrasted with my strong desire to improve my quirk. Is that what happened to Midoriya?”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeU5HjGAkdB
Kiri thinks back to her creation, the night of her birth. The driving force behind it.
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKTQT190I2E
Kiri: ‘Am I-’
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡocXANSGVPk
Sabrina: “It’s not good for him.”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxy089zWye8
Kiri: “It’s… not?”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCHHlx7ihwH
Sabrina: “No. He is not whole, incomplete. He is unable to use the power that you have, the power that sustains you. But worse than that, he will not be able to grow as a person.”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2WfJShSoem
Kiri: “But I… still want to be with him. I… love him.”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgKEFuteJLI
Sabrina: “Of course you do; you were designed to. I’m sorry.”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBDD2oI5Vxd
That was it, the final nail. Now you’re telling her, that her love is not even real?
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDgEP6htVfx
She collapses to her knees.
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQprPsHGV1a
Izuku: “Kiri?”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0D6tEymkd3
Present Mic: “What’s this!? Is Kiri Tae giving up?! What’s happening down there!?”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsiTEgWoLhU
The esper approaches the mental construct and can’t help but feel pity.
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcwDDEKygNn
Sabrina: “I will help him, as Kaoru helped me. Whatever love you two may share, it will only end in tragedy. You will hurt each other in the end. This is the best thing you can do for him.”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ263C5y0bgn
Kiri: ‘To disappear… perhaps that’s the only thing I can do for Izu now. He… doesn’t need me anymore.’
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGqKO24Nlju
Sabrina goes to grab Kiri’s head; a psychic attack there should knock her out. Then she can help return her to Midoriya in private.
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyU6hi2wAGQ
Tatsumaki: “Kiri!”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Iyll0orZF
Kiri tenses as she hears her sister’s voice. The sudden movement from her stilled Sabrina’s hand.
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2TKAfw5FWX
Tatsumaki: “What are you doing?! After coming so far, how can you give up!? I know you’re better than that. Snap out of it!”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdZ0pFBD0D4
With her voice, Kiri remembers a fact she was too narrow-minded to see. There were others who she loved, who loved her.
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7bWvzGPiUp
Fubuki: “I don’t know what’s going on, Kiri, but… even I’m worried. Mom is worried; we’re all worried. Don’t give up, not like this.”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVqGcWOS62b
People who would be sad to see her disappear. Family.
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcgHdAcDvQM
Kirishima: “Don’t give up, Tae!”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8du1rnkKf5
And even friends.
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡln8ulC5gXC
Izuku: “Fight!”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzPARZvcx7a
Izuku: “I still want to do this together, Kiri! I want to be heroes with you! So don’t give up, not on me or yourself! Because heroes never give up!”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMJyE8ClluD
She even has an ideal to strive towards.
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZeQ5Vjh3NV
She stands, knees not fully steady, but stronger than a moment before. Kiri now stands on a foundation all her own.
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdghaPpWUhS
Kiri: “Maybe you’re right. It might be better for Izu… if I disappear. But my love is real. I love my family and my friends. I can’t disappear. I don’t want to make them sad. I want to live.”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWdzXilJzBo
The esper’s eyes widen at the declaration.
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2hZ867A6ef
Sabrina: ‘She has family and friends? How?’
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ14aKHo6lIB
Was she wrong? Was Kiri different to from what she imagined? Her other half was nothing like this. The person she was couldn’t have made real friends on her own, and the love was twisted. The inner conflict made physical nearly broke her family apart.
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfML0gCTo1J
Sabrina: ‘But this… is different. There is no conflict. The love she has… at least for her family… it doesn’t seemdesigned.’
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiSJp3ptggF
Sabrina: “Hmmm, very well. Then prove it.”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBw16TC4qNb
Sabrina creates her psi-whips, and Kiri gets into her fighting stance.
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgVenWsCwPT
Present Mic: “Finally! It seems like they’re ready to start! Buckle up your seat belts, folks!”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrcWERXsZq0
Kiri dashes forward, ready to dodge the whips. But those were just feints.
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBNwzgDdsSL
Sabrina: “Lock.”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTDEA5fpUWe
Kiri freezes in her tracks, and in the next moment, a psychic force pushes her back.
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp80HvroST1
Present Mic: “Is it about to end already!?”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTlwZ8RKr4r
Kirishima: “Tae!”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB4wsn6hyFf
Straining her tactile telekinesis, Kiri breaks the lock and kicks the air below her. Far in the sky, Kiri counters by unleashing several air cannons at Sabrina.
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVH12BgYgxS
The esper swipes them away with her whips, but some weren’t aimed at her. Some cannons damaged the stage, creating usable rubble for later.
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFYM0xEWIWl
But before that, Kiri kicks off the air and rockets towards Sabrina. Quickly, she transforms her whips into a shield that blocks Kiri’s blow.
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPDu3xRHEKq
With Kiri touching her psi-shield, Sabrina was able to electrify her. Kiri cried in pain, but she didn’t stop. She forced her hands into the shield, and with a grunt of effort, tore it apart.
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbMZOietGgZ
Stumbling from the energy dispersal, Sabrina was open for an overhead blow.
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTaIIv3vG1M
Sabrina: “Lock!”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuBKxKi07zO
But this time, it only stopped Kiri long enough for Sabrina to jump away. Kiri didn’t let this chance pass; she increased the strength of her blow and caused further damage to the stage.
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo8ahZWLUbE
Sabrina: “Kadabra!”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC76MqEqNWr
The mental projection appeared once again, ready to face this new opponent.
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTx1uw9aqUv
Midnight: “Sabrina! The same rules apply!”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4X2ysJyBPj
Sabrina: “I know.”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzgrGgWSKyf
Sabrina: ‘It will be mental projection versus mental projection.’
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNvLzKFrzfW
Kiri charges the new opponent.
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0iqEA3KTsi
Sabrina: “Reflect.”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK2MMzQMJoH
This time, Sabrina made sure to stand while Kadabra fought. But that didn’t help her resist the wind pressure generated when Kiri struck Kadabra.
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmX2vsNwZ35
Doing a front flip, Kiri delivered a devastating aerial axe kick that managed to push Kadabra back. But Kiri kept the kick going and struck the stage, damaging it even further.
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrhQcY0cKis
Sabrina: “Kinesis.”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdfl5qKsad6
But it had no effect. Even depressed, Kiri paid attention. Her eyes were closed, and so those attacks won’t work.
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFzUi47ZD6O
Sabrina: “That’s not so much better. You can’t fight with your eyes closed.”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoGliyHq9Cf
Which seemed to be the case as Kiri struck the ground beside Kadabra.
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUNFB7Vt5DW
Sabrina: “Dragon Shock Wave.”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsX3cUDcn8m
Kadabra points its silver spoon at Kiri and unleashes a yellow lightning bolt shaped like a dragon. Kiri is struck by the attack and hisses in pain. But she soldiers on and attacks the ground where Kadabra was.
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfzVdOVjpUe
Yes, it was. For Kadabra was already dodging by the time Kiri was moving.
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMwmWyviYRH
Sabrina: “Press the attack.”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAAOWXBBnJO
And so on it went, Kiri attacking blindly while being struck by several bolts of electricity. Her passive barrier was slowly being worn down. Her attacks are doing less and less damage to the stage.
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB8kHZ4Ez8O
She was even missing worse over time, hitting places where Kadabra wasn’t close to.
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrw6QkQtuPO
Neito: “Hahaha! Class 1-A’s final hope for victory is fighting blind!”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqyA0UTcDU0
Kaoru: “You got this, Sabrina! Bring home the gold!”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlL3ZuqCKPh
Uraraka: “Uh, no.”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6qJYf7AhIY
Kirishima: “Open your eyes, Tae!”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDKRrPvd93D
Izuku: “No, I think she’s onto something.”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBAVerm2hh9
His class turns to Izuku in surprise, but he says nothing. They’ll have to just wait and see. But he’s not the only one who notices something. Shiho also notices the increasingly damaged stage.
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSQlq3cbf48
And it was mostly on the side where Sabrina was. The stage was barely hanging around.
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzGhY7dld1k
It was time.
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ927h29TwXa
When the dragon came this time, Kiri dodged it cleanly.
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHP6BIRXWhG
Sabrina: “What?”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvbVhEiUMFW
Then Kiri turned to Sabrina, eyes still closed, and balled her fist. Her body flexes, focusing her tactile telekinesis around it.
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHqWWVIuU4h
Suddenly, air was rapidly being sucked into her fist. But not just that, all the rubble and loose earth were being sucked in too, drawn in by the wind.
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH9gWJXNd4N
Sabrina: “Kadabra! Thunder Dragon Wave!”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiF7a8Jco8u
It raises its spoon to the sky and three lightning dragons explode into existence. With a tilt of the spoon, the dragons slam into Kiri.
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh0OC6upWXW
It’s painful, more pain than she ever experienced.
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ2MCb2jlAj
But she doesn’t give up!
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8IqpkHw4cS
Despite her body breaking down, twitching occasionally from the lightning, Kiri presses on.
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg3r22sla0n
Kiri: ‘Because a hero, the one I want to be, doesn’t give up. Never, not when her family is expecting her to win.’
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxjnxdbhs5i
So Kiri goes plus ultra!
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnCbmbqGVQH
She puts even more power into her fist, enough to draw even the lightning assaulting her.
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6KJlKwMHdX
Sabrina’s attack was no more, swallowed up by Kiri’s fist.
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUBjwY5sCDU
Sabrina: “Impossible.”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6BEYY9qYPk
Suddenly, the air stills. It was time; she gathered all she needed. Kiri calls out her ultimate move, one she made inspired by her sister and by her brother’s number one hero.
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCh5yhAjthe
Kiri: “Thunder Style-”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsjYuRrT7kc
Her body tenses once more.
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg6KispJvlO
Sabrina: “Kadabra! Teleport! Guard!”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgCAxGXi2y9
Kiri: “Cyclone-”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ82ln8f2f8e
Kadabra appears in front of Sabrina with its arms up, ready to tank the attack.
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDVf3KSSBi6
Kiri: “SMAAAAAASHHHH!!!”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlCm4Wt31zc
She unleashes the gathered storm, aimed slightly at the ground, and the results are explosive.
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbAMMy7gZEr
A tornado comparable to the other two great bombs of the tournament batters everything in front of Kiri. The surge of thunder, earth, and wind slams through Kadabra and engulfs Sabrina.
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDpMgtNfxDp
Thankfully, Midnight got out of the way, and Cementoss protected the audience with concrete walls.
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Mg6L5DFo1
A few seconds later, the storm passed and the walls were lowered.
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoHDZDmjbR3
Present Mic: “Another bomb!? Kids these days, am I right!? But did it do the job, or will this be another upset!?”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpcRqPFySsq
Depends on who you ask. Because the results became clear when the smoke did the same.
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWIRCUwmbfs
Kiri was on the ground, breathing heavily, clearly past her limit. Kadabra was heavily damaged but still able to move. But Sabrina-
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyfTrc4lUqy
Sabrina: “Hm, well done.”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeqHNsoaIQj
Thanks to Kiri’s strategy and the fact Sabrina couldn’t defend herself well with Kadabra on the field, the stage beneath her feet was destroyed. The girl was on her knees, damaged and out of the ring.
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXdq1kNXPVc
Midnight: “As per the rules established, Sabrina is out of bounds!”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr4GAZ6Bfly
Present Mic: “And now the tournament comes to an end! The winner of this year’s Class 1 Sports Festival is Class A’s Kiri Tae!”
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiePGq0g6ZZ
The crowd goes nuts over the explosive finish.
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJcj5qJmgLC
Neito: “NOOOOOOO!!”
