Chapter 304: Midoriya… Midoriya…
As expected, the result was obvious.
Setsuna was at a loss since she had lost. She was at a loss before she glanced at Mineta, who was talking with Jiro. She could see Jiro's expression was so radiant and happy, which made her feel inexplicable.
She might have noticed, but she didn't overthink it before, yet she realized that his relationship with many women was closer than desired, especially when he had a girlfriend. However, this wasn't something that she was thinking about. Instead, she could tell from the conversation that Jiro was trained by Mineta too.
Then, even if they were all trained by the same man, why was she the one who was defeated?
Did she not have a talent?
Or was their training different?
She knew that she needed to question him, and she wondered what the difference was between them.
Mineta could tell Setsuna's stare, but he pretended he didn't notice anything. As of now, he was more interested in the next match, which was about to begin.
From Class 1-B, Monoma, Reiko, Yui, and Nirengeki Shoda would come out on this last battle.
Leaving Shoda aside, whether Monoma, Reiko, or Yui, all of them were strong.
Reiko and Yui were trained by Mineta, and they also showed an amazing record at the Sports Festival.
Meanwhile, while Monoma might seem less than them, his strategy was better than any of them since, with his Quirk, he was forced to think faster than anyone.
Mineta anticipated much of their battle since their opponent was the chosen inheritor of All-Might.
From Class 1-A, there were Shinso, Uraraka, Mina, and lastly, Midoriya.
Mineta looked at Mineta, who talked happily with Bakugou, showing a bright smile like the protagonist.
Watching Bakugou, who had won, Midoriya was so happy that he couldn't control his emotion as he praised him.
"I will improve so fast that you will never be able to catch up!" Bakugou showed his determination to always stay on top of Midoriya.
"Don't worry. Even so, I will surprise you." Midoriya showed a confident smile.
"Say someone who failed his hero license exam before." Bakugou snorted as he left smoothly.
"...."
Midoriya couldn't say a single word in defense since, without a doubt, his words were pretentious, considering he hadn't shown any results.
However, this time, it would be different.
'I'm going to win!"
With such determination in his heart, he was going to win this battle.

For Mineta, this type of class was nothing but a mere game for him. Even if he didn't fight all of them later, he was okay with it. As for why he decided to fight all of them previously, it was because there was no battle scene for a while, so the author decided to add one.
However, for All-Might, Bakugou, and Midoriya, this battle meant a different meaning.
All-Might and Bakugou aside, Midoriya knew he had to win this battle. Even now, he still remembered the words of Sir Night Eye.
"You are not worthy to become his inheritor."
When he heard those words, he felt like crying, and this was why he was going to show everyone that he was worthy of this power. He was going to make everyone believe him once again that he could become the number one hero!
'Just wait, All-Might, Kacchan... I'll do my best!'
As he clenched both of his fists, he made up his mind to show his all.
---
All-Might and Bakugou watched the determined expression of Midoriya, and somehow they felt restless.
"Mineta-boy, who do you think will win?" All-Might asked. He had truly believed Mineta since all of his predictions had been correct.
"Just watch."
Mineta didn't bother to answer since he knew if he said that Class 1-B would win, they would try to give him many excuses, telling him the advantage of Midoriya, but for him, he knew that Midoriya would definitely lose.
The result of this battle had already been decided, and no one could change it, especially when he thought about the accident which happened in Midoriya's room previously.
Midoriya's room was wrecked, and Aizawa even came to see it.
Naturally, Aizawa asked, but Midoriya could only answer that his Quirk was on a rampage or something with an awkward expression.
While Mineta saw this, he didn't overthink since, as he had usually said before, he didn't care much about Midoriya.
---
The battle started.
Midoriya was confident that he could win this match with all of his teams. He knew Uraraka and Mina well, and he knew how strong they were.
As for Shinso, while many said that he was a burden, Midoriya didn't think so since Shinso's Quirk was strong.
Shinso could become their key to victory!
"I will become bait! Wait here!"
Using his enhanced body, Midoriya jumped around, leaving that instruction.
"..is he always like this?" Shinso asked helplessly. He thought that Midoriya would be careful, but this guy suddenly charged forward, telling all of them that he would become bait.
If you were caught directly, what would happen?
Shinso wasn't sure where Midoriya's confidence came from, but somehow his heart swayed when he saw his steadfast expression.
"Hahaha..." 2x
Mina and Uraraka could only laugh awkwardly.
"Uraraka, why don't you take the leadership?" Mina asked since she felt that Uraraka was better than Midoriya.
"It's okay. I will just be the support." Uraraka shook her head since she didn't want a conflict. She could tell that if she said something, Midoriya wouldn't listen to her and would just charge forward with his own immature plan.
"Then, what should we do now?" Shinso asked and somehow felt that Uraraka was more reliable.
"For now, let's just stick with the three of us and attack them, but it will be quite difficult since almost all of them are a long-range type." Uraraka looked around before she found a road roller. "Follow me."
Mina and Shinso looked at each other before they nodded. Still, they were curious about what Uraraka planned to do since she was walking toward the road roller, but when they saw what she was doing, they opened their mouth wide.
Using her Quirk, Uraraka made the road roller to lose weight as she threw it in the direction of Midoriya since she could hear a voice fighting.
The road roller flew in that direction, then Uraraka said, "Shinso-kun, be careful of Monoma since he can copy your Quirk."
"Yes."
"By the way, do you remember the voice of all of our opponents?"
Shinso shook his head. "No, I only recall the three of them." He didn't know Yui's voice since she didn't talk at all.
"I see..."
Then, suddenly, they were attacked, and everyone started their first confrontation.
As they fought, in the end, Uraraka told Shinso to do a sneak attack, walking alone to make a guerilla attack, to which he agreed since he knew that he would become a burden if he kept standing by their sides.
In the end, with the way they were, it was quite a disadvantage for them to fight in a group, so they decided to attack by dividing themselves. All of them went to different destinations, but their goal was the same, which was to defeat Class 1-B.
To be honest, this was the best strategy since none of their Quirks could be combined with each other.
Meanwhile, in Class 1-B, their Quirks complemented each other perfectly. If their opponents stayed together, they would be an easy target for them, but all of them scattered, which made it hard for them to attack, especially when they didn't have a Quirk, which made them able to detect or scout their opponents, so they quickly lost them except for Midoriya, who faced Monoma alone.
"I will look at them in the sky." Reiko flew off into the sky.
Shoda and Yui nodded while facing back by back, ready to attack anyone that came closer.
However, suddenly, when everyone thought that the intense battle was about to start, Midoriya's scream echoed through the ground.
"AARRGGGHHHHH!!!!"
