Chapter 6: One Casual Beatdown Coming Up
Landing on the ground, Yuki didn't even give the Villain a chance, opening his mouth to reveal the fangs, he used his quirk immediately.
"{Don't move}."
The Sludge Villain's eyes widened. I, I can't move… this time, instead of Katsuki, it was he who was the one struggling to move in his place.
Taking the chance, Yuki looked at the stunned Katsuki with a grin. "Nah, Katsuki, getting captured and molested by sludge is the saddest thing that happened to you today~"
Before Katsuki could roar at him, Yuki spoke up once more."{Smooth like butter}."
Kirito, who safely landed with the help of Tsubasa, had already caught on to what Yuki was planning.
"This is my chance!" Kirito stepped forward and extended both his hands. His fingers began to elongate, stretching as they shot forward!
From his left hand, he wrapped his fingers around his dumb quirkless classmate, and with his other, his fingers dug straight into the Villain's body.
And due to the assist with Yuki's quirk, Kirito had no problems at all when he shoveled through the sludge!
Kirito grinned as his fingers wrapped around Katsuki, "You two! GET OVER… HERE!" He pulled back both his arms.
"Whoaaa!" Izuku cried as he was pulled away at a fast speed.
Freed, Katsuki took the moment to gasp for fresh air, but his eyes remained on the little witch in the sky. There was a slight gleam in his eyes. Even when Kirito let go of him, his eyes were on Momo the entire time.
Y-You… The Sludge Villain roared mentally. After struggling a few moments later, he regained his movement. He flung his body forward with rage. "Give me back my new body!" he shot an arm out only for it to be sliced in half.
"Grraaah!" the Sludge Villain angrily looked at the sky.
Momo looked down with a disgusted look, she flew into a circle, gaining speed, before shooting down like an arrow!
"Tool Manipulation!" Momo reeled back on her broom. She angrily took a breath in, and then spun. "Wind Scythe!"
A sharp blade of wind, containing cursed energy, launched downwards, cutting through the sludge with ease, making the Villain step back in pain. But she wasn't done yet!
She briefly looked aside at Katsuki, and seeing how his attire was ruined and his body showed signs of stress from his capture, made the girl even more pissed.
"How dare you… lay your hands on him!" she spun, and spun, almost as if dancing in the air. The wind picked up with her movement, and the Sludge Villain then gaped when he saw multiple wind blades coming at him!
Dust exploded into the alleyway, as the buildings nearby were also cut into.
Kirito, who was slapping Izuku over the head for how stupid he was, gaped at the scene.
"Oh shit, she's pissed off!" Tsubasa's eyes widened.
Izuku shook his head from the sight, he ignored the gasps of the crowd and ran over to Katsuki. "Kacchan! A-Are you okay?!"
But Katsuki ignored Izuku. His eyes only focused on the angry Momo as she attacked the Villain again and again. Not only that, but he also heard what she said.
He was in a daze for a split second.
That's my girl! Katsuki grinned.
Izuku waved a hand in front of his friend, seeing that he wasn't moving, he grabbed ahold of his shoulders and started shaking him.
"Kacchan! Kacchan! Are you okay? And… why are you grinning like that!"
From the side came a confident voice, "All right, boys! Let's kick some ass!" Yuki charged into the fray with excitement.
Seeing this, a certain explosion head couldn't believe what he was seeing, "Huh! WHAT!!! Out of the way, Yuki! This guy is mine!" Katsuki angrily shouted, pushing Izuku aside, and ran forward with tiny sparks exploding from his palms.
"HAH?!" Seeing Katsuki and Yuki running made Tsubasa want to grab his hair and pull it out! They were just supposed to save Katsuki and get the hell out of there, right?!
No, wait, Yuki did mention something about beating the crap out of the Villain, but he didn't know he was serious at that time!
"D-Damn it!" Since it's already like this, Tsubasa then left his place, following after Yuki and Katsuki with a flap of his wings! He raised his arms up as scales grew alongside his skin and then sharp claws emerged from his hands. "Wait for me!"
"We're really doing this? We're really gonna do it!" Kirito yelled, charging in with the mindset of joining his friends, shaking his arms crazily in the air. "Come on, Izuku, let's beat the crap out of this guy!"
"EH!" Izuku cried out in shock.
He looked behind at the Heroes and the Police, before turning, seeing the backs of his classmates charging without hesitation in their steps. Izuku bit his lips, his friends, Tsubasa, Kirito, Momo, and Yuki all came to save him and Katsuki.
And now, they all were going to confront the Villain instead of running away!
H-He can't be the only one-!
"AAAAAH!" Perhaps it was the situation getting to him, but Izuku took a pose, with his arms stretched out into fists as he puffed up his chest, he then gave out a war cry as he ran forward!
Emerging from the dust cloud, the Villain had angry red eyes. Shit. Shit. SHIT! It wasn't supposed to be like this! "Y-YOU DAMN BRATS! WHO THE HELL…" he swung out with a wave of his hand, as it extended like a whip towards the incoming Katsuki and Yuki. "DO YOU THINK YOU ARE!"
"Who am I?!" Katsuki charged an explosion, blasting the sludge into many pieces that scattered into the air. "The man who will be the strongest hero ever, jackass!"
"Don't you get it yet? We're the Heroes! And you…" Yuki dodged another incoming attack, and activated his quirk again. "Are the bad guy!"
"{Sludge, converge and gather!}."
Izuku's eyes widened while running. From his point of view, the sludge, left behind by the Villain, that was on the grounds, walls, and other places, quickly flew out from their positions and aimed straight at the Villain.
"W-What is Yuki planning?! Isn't this giving him the advantage?!" Izuku gasped when the sludge merged with the Villain making him even larger than before.
"Huh? Hahahaha!" The Sludge Villain grinned as he felt the changes in his body. He gripped his two fists as sludge came pouring down into infinite amounts. "Are you stupid kid! What an idiot, but don't worry!"
The Sludge Villain crept closer with malicious intent. "I'll take your life, and make it quick and painless for you. Hehehehe-"
"{Solidify}." Yuki simply smiled.
The Sludge Villain stopped in his steps when his own body started morphing, becoming more solid!
And soon, instead of a monster who was covered by waves of sludge, stood a large, shiny, hard and rounded man with ugly teeth and wide eyes.
"H-Huh?" the Sludge Villain looked down at his now solid hands in disbelief.
He looked up slowly at Yuki, who looked back at him with a teasing look.
"I think you're too big for us little kids to handle. Don't you feel bad for hurting us, so let's make it a fair fight. Hey, I know! Why don't you, {Become smaller}, for us?" Yuki pulled back Katsuki, just as Tsubasa, Kirito, and Izuku finally caught up.
Flying down, Momo just hovered right beside the group, looking at the Villain with the same teasing look Yuki has on.
The group watched as the originally tall villain became shorter and shorter until he was just the size of an average adult man.
The Sludge Villain stood with a dumbfounded expression.
"Hey. Wait a second…" Tsubasa finally caught onto something. "Solidify? So that means his sludge…"
Yuki smacked his lips, "Yup."
"His sludge…" Kirito rubbed his chin in thought. "Since he became solid, the sludge won't hinder our movements at all. And so blunt attacks…"
On the side, Katsuki was grinning evilly at the Sludge Villain. He was also catching on to what Yuki just did.
"That means that blunt attacks will work on him now!" Izuku finished it off with shining eyes. "I get it! Yuki had all the sludge from the area gather onto him, and by making it solid, the Villain won't be able to manipulate the sludge in any shape or form to block or slow us down!"
"Bingo!" Yuki snapped his fingers at Izuku with a grin. "As expected from the man who researched a dozen quirks! You truly are amazing, Midoriya!"
Izuku blushed from the compliment, even forgetting of the fear that the Sludge Villain brought to him moments ago, "T-Thank you. It's nothing, just a reasonable observation you know."
"Hey." Momo finally spoke up, causing both her group and the Villain to turn their eyes to her.
The cute girl on the broom was giving off the most devious smile that anybody has ever seen on her face.
"Yuki, do the thing."
Yuki grinned, walking with such swagger that made anyone who saw him want to slap him, and cracked his knuckles. "With pleasure."
He took a deep breath in, and then…
"{Team buffs, enemy debuffs, incoming! Speed increase!}."
"{Damage increase x4!}."
"{Villain gains twice the damage from hits!}."
The Villain dully looked at them, "Wait…"
"{Katsuki Bakugo, Quirk Amplification!}."
"{Villain's movement, attack, speed, and defense are lowered!}."
"{With each hit, the Villain will move slower and slower!}."
Yuki went on and on, until he finally fell silent, watching as his cursed energy wrapped around his group and the opponent.
"This…!" Katsuki fists tightened, feeling the power rushing into him!
Tsubasa and Kirito looked at each other, before grinning viciously at the Villain.
Izuku, feeling himself become stronger, was so fascinated. It wasn't until he calmed down that he realized how serious the situation was.
And then he gave the poor Villain a somewhat sad glance.
Y-Yuki… isn't this a bit overkill…
Momo stepped off her broom, pulling down her sleeves to reveal her slender arms. She brought her hands up, punching a fist into the palm of her other hand. This unassuming action suddenly shook the air around her for a brief instance.
"Wait…" remembering what happened to his body after what the boy said, the Villain's eyes shook with panic and fear, already having a feeling of what the boy's quirk might be!
"You know…" Momo walked forward with a scary smile. "You really shouldn't pick on kids, we're so cute. Don't you feel bad…?"
"Yeah…" Kirito moved with a skip in his steps, rubbing his hands eagerly. "I mean, you brought this onto yourself, pal."
"H-Hold on. C-C-Can't we talk ab-about this?" the Villain retreated, his body shaking even more.
"Nah, I never said to retreat." Yuki grinned, the silver haired boy licked his lips in glee, causing the Villain to flinch in fear. "Come closer to us, we ain't gonna do anything bad…"
"Yeah, what he said." The bully in Tsubasa's veins took over, he softly flapped his wings as his claws playfully clawed the air. "We ain't gonna do too much…"
Katsuki raised his hand, and a fiery explosion was made. Feeling the power from it caused him to grin menacingly at the cowering Villain.
"U-Um?" Izuku hesitated. "Isn't this too much, guys? I mean, he's already defenseless so…"
"{Izuku, go kick the Villain in the face}."
Izuku suddenly ran and jumped into the air, sending a kick out as soon as he reached the Villain.
"Oof!" The Villain's face rippled as Izuku's foot made contact, sending him rolling onto the ground.
Landing back on the ground, Izuku regained control of his body, just standing there with a look of disbelief.
Did he just...
Seeing this, the group smiled happily.
"LET'S GET HIM!" Yuki yelled.
And then, the Villain was soon introduced to the greatest beatdown of his life!!!
"Fight back!" Kirito pulled the Villain up and sent a simple punch, making the Villain's head fling to the side.
Kirito sneered, "Fight back I say!" sending a backhanded slap that echoed in the alley.
"Not so tough, are you?!" Tsubasa flew over, kicking the Villain from behind, which actually caused him to soar into the air.
Not a second later, Momo was right on his ass. Flying speedily until she was right above her target, Momo grabbed onto her broom, using it as a bat and swung it down at the incoming Villain! "HOME RUN!"
"Gah!" The Sludge Villain's eyes rolled back as he was smacked from the sky, and right before him was Katsuki, waiting for him on the ground!
Katsuki grinned, waving his hand into the direction of the helpless Villain's eyes.
Then the Villain's vision was consumed in orange, yellow, and red!
"DIIIIIIIIIIE!"
An explosion rocked the place, sending dust, rocks, and smoke into the air!
When the smoke died down, the Heroes, Police, and civilians then watched in silence as the kids started circling the Villain.
The News Reporter zoomed in with the camera while the current scene was being broadcasted on live television!
"Hah!" Yuki threw a right hook, causing the Villain to stumble backwards.
From behind the Villain, Kirito extended his fingers, then sending another noteworthy slap to the Villain's side.
At this point, the Villain's eyes turned white as he foamed from the mouth.
But, unfortunately for him, the kids seemed like they were just getting started!
Tsubasa was next, actually landing on the ground, retracting his wings and claws, rushing up and slammed a knee into the Villain's stomach.
He giddily laughed out loud while doing this. He couldn't believe that he was so scared of this guy when he first saw him on tv, hah, guess he wasn't a big deal after all!
"Baleugh!" The Sludge Villain crouched, holding his stomach in pain as liquid came out of his mouth, but was then met with a flying punch from Momo!
Katsuki then followed up with his fists, rather than using his quirk, wanting to really give the Villain the beating of his lifetime! Katsuki swung his arm back to gain momentum, and then threw it forward, crashing his fist into the rippling Villain's face!
Giving both lefts and rights with passion!
And then at once, all four of them trapped the Villain in the middle, sending a punch, one after another, a kick or two, followed by an explosion from Katsuki, leaving the Villain no chance to counterattack at all!
On the side, sweet innocent Izuku Midoriya, was looking at this scene with a shaking smile.
It was as if he had just realized how scary his friends can be whenever they weren't being nice.
S-So scary…
It wasn't until the group finally noticed that Izuku wasn't with them, so they paused in the jumping.
Katsuki was currently holding the Villain by his neck, his right hand hovering over his chest with sparks exploding outwards.
He looked over at Izuku in annoyance. What was this loser doing?!
Katsuki: "What the hell, Deku, get in here and help us!"
Kirito: "Come on, Izuku! You can take him!"
Tsubasa: "What are you, a pansy? Get over here already!"
Momo: "Izuku, hurry up and kick the guy to the moon!"
"B-But…" Izuku was nervous as all eyes were on him. He really didn't want to do it, and besides, the situation was under control now. Couldn't they just let the Heroes handle this now? "Hitting a Villain while he's down? Th-That doesn't seem like a heroic thing to do-"
"Boring! {Izuku, beat this guy's ass with us, now!}, you damn, goody two shoes." Yuki rolled his eyes and used his quirk.
Not a second later, Izuku, who was very adamant on not participating, actually rushed forward and punched the guy in the face, causing the Villain's head to roll to the side, sending teeth flying in the process!
"That's it, Izuku!"
"I knew you could do it!"
"Let's beat him up again!"
Izuku helplessly watched as Katsuki pulled the Villain back up onto his feet with a cruel smirk, as he, himself, now stood together in a circle with his friends, while the Villain was centered in the middle.
He closed his eyes as he felt his body jump in the Villain's direction. "I'M SO SORRY!" and the Villain was soon punched back and forth, this time, a new member joining in on the fun!
"Fight back!"
"Fight back!"
"Come on, fight back!"
"Let him get up, let him get up!"
"Fight back! Fight back! I said FIGHT BACK!"
