Entrance Exam
"Midoriya! What are you doing? You need to get up. Clock's ticking. You still need to train with Akisame-san" I shouted towards Midoriya that was sprawled on the ground. He just finished his daily haul on the beach that was filled with trash. I'm here as some sort of supervisor after All Might asked me.
----------------------------
(Flashback)
Right after the mud villain incident.
'Got the eggs, beer for Sakaki-san, Cheesecake for Shigure-nee and Tochumaru-' I was checking my groceries when I heard shouting around the corner.
"- THAT'S WHAT HAPPENED TO YOU RIGHT?"
The sound of a sobbing boy can be heard from miles away before he said
"YES!"
"YOU CAN BE A HERO" announced the thin man that looked likes about to be blown by the wind.
'Toshinori-san? And wait that's Midoriya?' I thought as I stare at the both of them. It seems like they didn't notice my presence even when I'm this close to them
"Ehem" I tried to get their attention which made Toshinori-san look at me
"Young Mori! Since when have you been listening?" He was startled to see me standing so close to them
"Since you asked him what happened. Honestly, you shouldn't continue this drama in the middle of the road. You don't know who's listening"
Toshinori-san now realized what I've said he gave me a grateful look for reminding him
"*cough* you're right Mori boy. You, ah what's your name again boy?"
Midoriya wiped his snot and tears before answering
"Midoriya Izuku sir"
"Do you know a quiet place? Somewhere private? What I'm about to tell isn't something that can be heard by other people" Toshinori-san asked Midoriya
"I don't know. Mom is probably at home and I don't really-"
"Just go to Ryozanpaku. You can talk there privately, you're going to talk about that, right?" I interjected which made Midoriya look in my direction. He was surprised when he saw me.
"You're that boy! The one who defeated the villain earlier!" he shouted
"Hmm? You were there?"
'Wait, the mud villain in the shopping district, All Might talking to Midoriya about one for all. Isn't this-'
"Young Mori?" Toshinori-san called out to me which broke me out of my thoughts
"Yes?"
"I said we would be grateful for the help"
"Oh, right. Follow me" I said as I led them both to Ryozanpaku
After that, the events followed what happened in the manga, or at least what's supposed to be. Toshinori-san told Midoriya about One for all. Which made Midoriya ask a question
"Why not let him inherit your powers All Might? He's already strong, he will do a better job than I can" he said as he pointed towards me. Toshinori-san looked in my direction, he then said
"I already offered it to him once. He rejected"
"W-what! Why?" Midoriya became shocked by the revelation. Before Toshinori-san could answer I said
"Too much work. Too many things to do. Becoming the symbol of peace isn't just helping people. You need to do so much more than just being a hero but that's a topic for another time. I'd rather be a hero for fun than do all that work." Midoriya was shaken by the sudden information.
"You'll work as a hero Young Mori?"
"I might. Just want to get the license is all. I know I can already use the name of Ryozanpaku for anything but that doesn't feel right. I want to have the ability myself not just by relying on the name that was already built by others"
"Hmm, then will you go to UA?" Toshinori-san nodded understanding what I meant
"Maybe? Who knows, I'm not even sure what I want to do yet. Enough about me you still need to discuss other things with Midoriya-san, right?" Toshinori-san shifted his focus now on Midoriya. He started explaining how he would pass one for all to him when suddenly the door to the room opened. Everyone turned around to see who it was.
"Interesting, let me help you with that" Akisame-san said with light shining in his eyes
(Flashback End)
----------------------
From there, Akisame-san develops a training routine for Midoriya. It was named 'From stick-o to Hero' training plan. He was also invited to live in Ryozanpaku although not in the main house. To help with his training Akisame-san develop a new training contraption that would help Midoriya develop every single muscle in his body.
While all of that is happening, I wasn't slacking off. Ever since I recovered my memories, I wanted to do more, have fun! Staying in Ryozanpaku can help me get stronger but I doubt there's even anyone stronger than the two grandpas and it would get boring if I just train every day. I decided I would also apply for UA. When grandpa Jin heard about my plan he just ignored me saying 'You do what you want'.
I also started my training with grandpa Furinji. He brought me to a place called 'Black Valley' it was located in the heart of Japan. The place was a forest, huge trees covered the area. I thought he planned to teach me like Kenichi but he decided to use a different approach and explain the general usage of Ki. There are two types of Ki, dou and sei ki. Dou type martial artist uses his/her anger to exceed his/her limits. As such, they tend to be aggressive in combat, and very rarely strays from the offensive. While Sei-type martial artist hides his intention to fight, instead of focusing on sensing his/her environment, then releases it quickly in response to danger. Grandpa also said it actually means that this type of martial artist fights not with power or anger, but with talent, skills, and wit. I was curious about both so I asked what would happen if I use both simultaneously. Grandpa only laughs but didn't answer my question.
It only took me 3 days to learn both. Though I can't really use it simultaneously for now since every time I try it felt like my body was going to break. I knew about the method since I saw it in the manga of HSD but doing it is a different thing. We stayed for another week in the valley after I learned both, grandpa Furinji taught me how to utilize both types of ki better by doing sparring sessions that almost destroyed everything in the area. After our training, he told me that what he taught to me was only the basics of Ki. There are people that specialize in using Ki to strengthen their different abilities. Punches and Kicks can cause large scale destruction even without the use of quirks.
"But everyone in Ryozanpaku can do that, right?"
"Ho, ho. There is still a difference between us. They did not train their body to the limit. Most of them focus on strengthening their control over their Ki. Most of their strength comes from how they utilize it. What I taught you is the most basic application of Ki"
"Then why don't you teach me those too?" I asked grandpa. He only looked at me and smiled
"When you're at our level, those techniques are more of a child's play. Only very few people that use Ki can break the defenses of people who pushed their bodies past their limits. Besides I was already too strong when I learned Ki so I didn't need those. I don't know how to use it like them"
--------------------
(Time skip)
It's been 8 months since my training with grandpa Furinji. Today, Midoriya and I were in front of UA for the entrance exam.
"We made it in time," he said while his knees are shaking from nervousness
"Man up, you had a month of practice with it already. You'll do fine"
"Yeah, your right! Let's go" Midoriya said but as soon as he stepped forward, the idiot tripped and almost landed face-first on the floor luckily a girl helped him. She used her quirk to make her float in the air
I ignored the two of them and stayed back in my spot. I kept thinking about Miu since she didn't want to come with me to UA. She only said that she was going to practice for her dreams.
After seeing Midoriya finished talking to the girl I went inside the hall where they would explain the exam. I went inside and sat in my designated seat. Only a few people were inside so I decided to just doze off to pass the time. I only woke up when I felt someone shaking me. I took off my eye masks and saw a floating female uniform in front of me. I was startled awake but I heard her speaking
"Ano, the exam is about to start. You don't want to be late, do you? Did you not have enough sleep before coming here? Me too! I was too nervous-" the girl? Continues her barrage of words that I couldn't even slip a word in. I stood up in my place and walked towards my exam area. Seeing me leave she shouted.
"Wait, what's your name?"
"Me? I'm Jin Mori" I answered as I continued to walk without waiting for her words.
"Wait for me!" she said as she follows
EXAM HALL G
The place was like a replica of a city. People inside are preparing after changing to their clothes. Some are stretching, some talking to others, while some are silently observing like me.
"We're in the same hall!" someone said beside me
I couldn't see anyone but I remembered the invisible girl from earlier.
"You are?"
"Oh, right. I haven't introduced myself. I'm Hagakure Toru. Nice to meet you Jin-san"
"Yup, nice to meet you too Hagakure-san. Just call me Mori if you like"
"Okay, Mori-san then you can just call me Toru! Since Hagakure is kinda long haha"
We continued talking until someone announced the start of the test.
"Begin!"
Seeing no one was moving the announcer, Present Mic said something again.
"What's wrong? The test's started Run RUN RUN!"
"Good Luck!" Toru shouted before she ran along with the rest of the examinees
I just slumped down in my spot thinking what I should do.
'if I remember correctly Bakugou was first place with 70+ points in the anime. I'll just pass that a little bit since I know All Might and some of the teachers already know what I can do. No need to overwork myself'
--------------------------
(3rd Person POV)
"Is he the one All Might?" Principal Nezu whispered to All Might while looking at one of the screens seeing a boy with curly hair slowly decimating the robots while helping the other examinees
"Yes, thank goodness the training paid off" Although All Might was confident with Midoriya, the boy didn't have any experience in combat. Thankfully the people at Ryozanpaku helped train the boy for the past months.
"All Might! You know about the kid at Ryozanpaku, right? How was he?" Aizawa Shota aka Eraser head asked. The teachers at UA are most curious about the boy since it was extremely rare for people within the Murim society to associate themselves with the Hero business since most of the higher-ranking members of the Murim already have special privileges that don't lose out to top tier heroes.
"You mean young Mori? Hahaha if he's serious, he is already stronger than me" All Might answered which shook every teacher present. All of them focused on the screen the was currently showing a boy laying on top of one of the buildings sleeping
"Are you sure? Look how lazy he is" Nemuri Kayama aka the R-rated Hero Midnight said
"Can we see how many points he has?" Space-hero Thirteen asked.
Principal Nezu then pulled out an unofficial score sheet to the screens. The score sheets only monitor the points from defeated villain bots. They all looked for the name of Mori at the bottom since they think that he is only lazing around. But then someone pointed out that Mori's name is at the very top and they all saw the score.
(JIN MORI: 85 points)
"H-how? He already defeated so much?"
"Haha, I already told you! If he uses his quirk his already stronger than me." All Might stated
"You mean he still hasn't used his quirk? What kind of quirk is it anyway? It just says here it's called Monkey King"
"You'll see! Maybe he'll show it when the 'Gimmick' shows up"
-----------------
(Mori)
"Aaah" I yawned,
'This is boring. I think I already have more points than necessary. I can decimate everything but let's give others a chance. I'll just wait for the huge robot then destroy it quickly so I can go home already '
I covered my eyes once again and fell asleep. A few minutes passed then I heard loud explosion noises.
*BOOM*
I opened my eyes and looked in the direction of the sound. I saw a giant robot walking through the buildings ignoring everything in its path.
'I want to test something' I observed first to see if anyone was close enough to the giant robot. I don't want to have casualties since I am doing something big.
I closed my eyes and breath deeply. Once I opened them power was flowing throughout my body. I didn't waste time since what I'm about to do would consume too much energy. I called one of my weapons. Yeoui or Ruyi Jingu the stone pillar of the Dragon King's Palace. Once it was summoned, I jumped from the building and made Yeoui extend so I could get a nice elevation. Once I was hanging around on top of the huge robot, I aimed Yeoui at the robot made it extend and expand. Almost instantly, the robot got crushed under the gigantic stone pillar. Be it examinees or the examiners' everyone was shocked by the sudden development. They all look at the top of the pillar only to see a boy wearing a crown sitting on top of it.
