Just read

As they both are finished conversing I stop listening. I was waiting to get some more info but the only thing I got is that the other party included in this is coming later. I would like to wait until the others come and see what info I can get from their interaction but that is very reckless. If the other party has more forces this could end up dangerous.

So its better if I attack now, subdue these ones. get all the info I can from the boss. Then subdue the other party and get info from them too. At least as much info I can interrogate out of them.

I cant torture people. But I can definitely shatter some bones. That should be enough pain.

I grab some small pieces of metal and throw them consecutively at the air. Their landing spot should be at the back side of the other mountain pile across from mine. The vans are in the middle of these two piles.

Because I threw multiple items consecutively it cant be written of as some item falling down by coincidence. SO all their attention will be directed there.

The items hit the ground, causing a chain reaction of pieces to slide and fall of the pile.

All 5 of them looked towards the other pile. The three goons raise their their rifles and aim it towards the top of the pile. Mawhawk gripped his machete well and stopped leaning on the van.

I took it as my signal and run at the boss. My steps where silent and i was left unnoticed.

"Whoever is behind there, its wiser for you to come out! If you dont we will find you and kill you!"

I reached behind the boss, he was ready to dial a number on it but I didn't give him enough time. I jump at him and punch him in the head, a clean knockout. I grip his phone and crush it.

Now they cant communicate with the other party.

The goons heard the bosses head being bashed and the phone crushed, they turned around to me and aimed their guns. But unfortunately for them I had already reached them. I punched the closest to me in the stomach with a uppercut.

Redirecting my punch mid motion I use his body and throw him on the other goon, knocking both down. The last one started shooting at me.

I had traced the direction of the bullets through the direction of the gun barrel and used my slightly ki enhanced palm to block the bullets while i run at him and punch him in the face. Another knock out.

I turn around to the other goons on the ground, the one i hit was unable to move with a little bit of vomit coming out of his mouth. While the other was trying to get his unresponsive coworker of him.

I didn't give them enough time and knocked both of them out.

"Hey! Im here too you know!"

I feel a arm with a long item coming down on my neck.

I already knew what he was doing because of my ki sensing, I had a crystal clear image of his movement.

I turned around with my right arm stretched, redirecting the hit and grabbing his wrist. Before he is able to react I pull him at me and elbow his sides, right under his ribcage.

He sustains a lot of damage but doesn't let go of his blade. He jumps back with one had gripping at his sides and the other one pointing his machete at me.

His face is scrunched up in pain.

"F*cker! you are the dangerous vigilante guy!"

I walk towards him slowly.

"Step back! My blade can cut through strong bodies like butter!"

I dont stop walking, in response he slashes at me. I was about to grab the blade but it started shining as its speed tripled.

I retract my hand and was able to save my fingers from getting severed just barely.

I duck as my instincts flare. The white light discharges from the blade and makes a arc in the air, traveling quite fast and cutting the air.

A smile was starting to appear on his face but it stops, he probably thought he cut my hand and realized he didn't.

Before he can make another move I jump at him, grabbing his face and bringing it to my knee.

The hit broke his nose and fractured his skull. He falls on the ground on his back with blood spurring out of his nose and mashed face.

I turn his unconscious body over on his chest. Dont want him to choke on his own blood now do we?

Since im done with them I go back to the boss and try to wake him up. After slapping him a bit he still doesn't wake up.

Shit, I should have just broken his phone and knocked out the others first, so he would be able to answer some questions before getting knocked out too.

I should have been less impulsive. Its not like he could have run away anyways.

So i do the next best thing.

I made sure I was using gloves to make sure that I left no finger prints and opened a van, It was full of some boxes. I opened some and they where full of herbs and chemicals. The other van had the same merchandise, but a section of it had different boxes.

They where suit cases.

I took one out and opened it.

It had some small capsules filled with a reddish fluid.

Grabbing a capsule I inspect it. on the top there is a engraving in english.

'trigger Prototype'.

Called it. It was trigger.

But this seems to be the period when trigger was originally being researched and produced.

The materials and chemicals seem to be components in the current recipe for the prototype trigger.

Which means that I just cut of a shipment from America to the villain factory.

Trigger was originally produced in America and all for one took a interest in the new drug. So they researched on it and made a higher grade of it. Ideo trigger, the green trigger from the series.

But it seems that research for that was started before trigger even reached full production and distribution.

This could possibly be the first of the shipments sent to japan.

Likely not though.

I close the vans and get to cleaning up the place.

I cant have the other party seeing the goons on the ground.

I bring the goons and the trafficker under two cars and place a piece of metal to cover the opening (Breaking bad style).

Now that the goons are hidden and there are no visible marks of a attack, I have to play the waiting game until the other party comes.

------------------------------------------------------

*Around half a hour later*

A small truck arrives. I can only sense three people in the vehicle. One of which was inside the container.

By the movement of the truck while turning I can make out that half of it is loaded full already.

It stops moving and the engine closes as the man at the co driver seat gets out. He had a slightly muscly built but by his ki i can make out that he is weaker than he looks. He had the name Viper tattooed on his neck.

The man at the driver seat presses a button and the container opens for the other man to come out. To my surprise the man that came out was a mix between gorilla and human. with the gorilla side being dominant. But his back wasn't bent like a gorilla, he was standing up straight like a normal person.

The guy named Viper started walking to the two vans and spoke

"Oh man! We came and you dont even have the courtesy to come out?"

He seems to be dissatisfied that the trafficker with his goons where not waiting for him outside.

He walks closer and bangs his hand on a van.

But nobody responded.

The gorilla man looks at Viper.

"....think they might be sleeping?"

Viper looks at him with disappointment evident on his face.

"Who would fucking sleep during busyness you monkey brain!"

He bangs his hand louder on the van.

"OI OI! YOUR DADDY IS HERE! COME AND GREET HIM STUPID FUCKS!"

He waits a seconds but still nobody responds.

At this point he is certain that the trafficker isn't here.

He opens up the vans and lets out a relived sigh as he sees the goods have been delivered.

" Transfer the goods in the truck and we find out where they went afterwards. " The driver of the truck makes a quick decision and speaks.

He realizes that there is no point in waiting, the faster they deliver the goods the faster they get their pay check and leave. And by waiting longer they might get in trouble/ found out by the law.

'"Aye Aye!"" Said both Viper and gorilla man. They got to carrying the items and bringing them in the container of the truck.

Its about time i make my move.

I run at them and drop kicked Viper on the shoulder, throwing him at high speed to the metal mountain pile. I'm pretty sure that his left shoulder is busted.

Gorilla leaves the boxes that he is carrying on the ground and turns around to face me.

He takes a good at me as he lowers his body in a combat stance. I can see the surprise in his face which he tries to keep hidden. I mean who wouldn't be, from his eye his opponent is the size of a child. And I am one.

"Oh! its the tiny vigilante!" The voice of the driver rings out.

The gorilla shouts at me like the animal his quirk makes him and bangs on his chest.

My saiyan/primate instincts respond to his gorilla attitude and I shout back while I bang my right hand on my chest as a show of dominance. It works as he is taken a back, he subconsciously feels my dominance over him. Breaking his stance and taking a step back.

I audibly chuckle at the sight. A giant silver back gorilla being scared of a toddler? Funniest shit I've seen in this life. Only second to the face of villains when they see all might about to bash their face in on the news. Those are truly hilarious.

Hearing my chuckle angers him as he gets back his bearings. He raises both hands in the air and proceeds to accelerate them back to the ground with his target being me.

I evade to his left and land a hook on his lower ribs. A crunch is heard as the feeling of the rib breaking curses through my hand.

He shouts in pain and jumps back creating distance between us.

I make a quick step towards him with my hand in a punching motion, intentionally slow enough for him to react.

He punches back with his right hand and our fists collide.

There was no shockwave of anything of that caliber, instead another crunch sound rings out as his fist deforms.

He shouts in pain, his two knuckles that collided with my fist broke and his wrist is dislocated.

Taking advantage of his momentary blinding due to the pain I launch a flurry of punches and kicks to his chest. The strikes where not strong but with enough rapid hits most of his ribs where broken. But none punctured his lungs.

His eyes roll back and his brain doesn't make any output for action. The instantaneous pain is too much for it to process.

Miraculously though he is still not completely knocked out.

What a durable gorilla. He amazes me.

I jump towards the top his shoulder, my legs stretched out in a drop kick position. but instead of hitting him they miss and pass by his head. My right arm wraps around his neck in a chokehold.

His weight stops my momentum from going forward but makes both of us fall on the ground. I reach the ground with my legs and stop the fall. I move my left hand to my right and tighten the choke.

I hold him for a couple seconds as his body goes completely limb due to the series of events. The pain already made him unresponsive, combined with the momentary blocking of the nerves completely shut him down.

I leave his head to fall down.

one down, two to go. These guys are common fodder, they dont even tire me.

"Mother fucker! I will kill you!"

The voice of viper rings out from the pile.

I turn around and look at him. His right hand is holding on to his obviously broken left shoulder.

He starts running towards me with his left arm dangling of his side.

Seriously. Does this guy have no danger sense whatsoever? Does his ego make him blind of his current predicament?

A very fast and strong opponent literally breaks your shoulder in a single attack, physically over powers a coworker with obviously more strength than you. And you still have the guts to continue fighting.

Stop, you wont get a zenkai boost bro. Just stop.

He reaches two meters from me and takes a long breath of air.

ok I've seen this before. breath attack.

I grab the gorillas arm move a couple meters back with him.

Surely enough, Viper spits out a cloud of greenish gas from his mouth and makes a field of acid or poison around him in a radius of around 3.5 meters. Visibility is completely blocked as well.

"HA HA HA! You cant touch me! if you come close the acid will envelop you and you will die! Come on pip-squeak! Come and bear the villain!"

Dumbass would have killed his coworker if I didn't take gorilla man with me.

I move further back and leave gorilla man on the pile of metal.

Viper's voice continues to ring out while he is laughing and trying to taunt me.

Its a good last desperate attempt against a purely physical fighter. but not to a guy who can literally sense you and your body shape through ki.

Combine that with the fact that there is soo much metal here that can be used as ammunition.

Not a good situation for him now is it?

I grab a piece of metal and crunch it together in a spherical shape and throw it accurately to his head.

"COME ON! WHERE DID ALL THAT BROVAD--"

The sphere meats his temple and his head falls back, with his body shortly following behind. His limp body reaches the ground with a thud, unresponsive.

Ding ding! All pins down! Strike!

The gas slowly disperses.

The sound of the truck door closing makes me look towards the driver seat.

Yep, he isnt there. He was running away.

I was about to run after him but someone else beat me to it.

A very familiar feminine man appears with a savage grin. His knife wielding hand that was stretched to his side moves suddenly and places it in front of his face. He was blocking the criminals from escaping.

He had black hair tied in a knot at the upper back of his head with a couple small bangs in front of his face. He wore dark clothing with a grey belt. Under his grey-blue eyes where purple marks.

His smile resembled a demon on a hunt. Giving me slight goosebumps.

I was trying to remember where I saw him before, but I couldn't get a hold of it.

" You've done quite well vigilante! "

A strong and confident voice sounds from the top of the metal parts mountain pile.

A man dressed In a bulky, armored hero outfit is at the top with his hands placed leisurely on his waist with a confident demeanor. Excluding a heroic aura.

He slides down the pile and repositions himself.

Damnit. They reached here while I was fighting and I was careless with my ki sense. Resulting in not sensing them. I get in a fighting stance in case he attacks me.

But he doesn't attack and instead continues talking.

"You beat up the villain without killing any of them, but you did use quite brutal methods.." he was looking at the gorilla man on the metal pile behind me.

Yeah.. I dont feel that good doing that either, but they work under the villain factory so they have probably done some horrible things.

"Nevertheless, I have a feeling that you are a person with justice in mind! Can you confirm if this gut feeling of mine is correct?". He says in a friendly tone. I dont know if he is trying to lower my defenses, but my ki sense is at its maximum right now and I'm not sensing anybody in the vicinity other than the side-kick of the hero who is currently in the process of subduing the last criminal.

I nod my head as a response.

Seeing my cooperation he gets slightly elated.

"Great! Me and my side-kick where sent here on a mission. We traced the criminal truck here. The question here is did you, someone with no connection to any law enforcement, know that this deal was taking place?"

I give him a thumbs down sign, signifying a no.

"So you came here by chance?"

I give him a thumbs up.

I know that the smartest thing to do right now is run away rather than cooperate, but I'm willing to take the chance and maybe paint myself in a better image to the heroes and the law. Im not planning on always being a vigilante, so the more I cooperate and be friendly with them the easier it will be for me later. Hopefully.

Ideally I will be considered a unregistered hero or something and the law wont try to subdue me. But that's just wishful thinking. Not all heroes are as friendly as this guy seems to be. if this was endeavor I would have already been burnt to the brink of death.

"...I see..." He take s short pause to think and continues again.

"Do you have any idea where these are being sent?"

Now this is a tricky question. I cant respond with just a yes or no. But I dont know how to write Japanese. Its a miracle that I learnt how to speak it in 4 years.

Oh damnit, I will just write it in English. I grab a sharp piece of metal of the ground and walk towards the vans.

Seeing me grab the metal piece the hero seems to have mistaken my move for attacking and got in a serious fighting stance, but dropped his guard when I clearly went to the van.

I place the metal piece in the door of the van and scratch it deeply. Writing the words 'Villain factory, likely'.

He reads the words. Good, he knows English.

He nods positively.

" Thank you very much for cooperating. But as a hero I cant leave it at that. You are still breaking the law and putting public safety to danger through your actions vigilante."

I look back at him and wait for him to continue. I knew this was going to happen, I'm not surprised any bit.

"I would love if you could surrender yourself and come with me to the police. I Assure you that with your cooperation you will be given minimum punishment for your crimes."

My simple response is no.

And so as to show my decision I get in a fighting stance and ready myself.

He understood my choice, but wasn't willing to stop jus yet.

"Are you sure? My name is Rocketeer and I'm a very strong hero. I currently occupy the rank 40th position on the hero rankings. I'm not someone you can take on. And if you do surrender I'm sure that you will be given the opportunity to become a hero .After your time in prison of course."

I clench my fists harder, showing that I'm not gonna relent to his threat and persuasion.

He seems disappointed at me. His friendly attitude fades away as he turns serious.

I start hearing engines roaring from him. On his back opens up a rocket thruster and white flame comes out.

He has a f*cking rocket on his back, and by getting a closer look I can see other openings on his elbows, feet and between the gastrocnemius muscles on the leg.

"Then brace yourself"

I can sense it. Feel it.

This guys is the most powerful. More so than me.

'System. Buy me the cheapest clothing that will cover my face and hair. Equip it. NOW'

[ Affirmative. 5 point have been deducted. Kaneki ken ghoul mask (without eyepatch) and a black beenie has been equipped. Has slight properties of Identity identification obstruction.] (a/n. tell me what the name of this effect is in a simpler term. My term feels wrong.)

He flies towards me in a punching motion with his right hand. Due to the distance between his original position and me I see through his attack fast enough to evade to his left.

When he is in strike distance he suddenly he pulls back his right hand and the thrusters on his left leg activate. making him do a spinning motion.

The attack was too sudden for me to evade, I put my arm in front of my chest right as the kick lands.

For the first time in this life I feel pain. Its not much, But this reinforced metal his suit is made out of plus the speed of the attack certainly dealt damage to me.

I struggle to hold it. My hands which are enforced with a small bit of ki are blocking the hit to a stalemate. But his thrusters suddenly get stronger and the attack over powers me, throwing me towards the metal mountain pile.

I stop myself on the way by rolling in the air and placing my feet on the ground along with one of my hands to decelerate my movement to a stand still.

Shit.

I use as much ki enhancing as I can without loosing control and leaking it outside, but it doesn't amount to much.

He runs towards me with his thrusters open but at a relatively low output and kicks me with his right leg. Which I block with my left knee.

He continues with straight punches. I either block or redirect the attack slightly of track.

After a couple punches I get more used to his speed. I duck down slightly and punch his stomach with all the strength I can muster in that small period.

His armor dents, with pieces breaking off. He shoots back, momentarily stunned.

I Jump towards his flying body but he comes out of his stunned state and uses the thrusters on his feet to make a swift roll in the air with his legs extended. I evade them by leaning back and using my ki to decelerate fast enough to not meet with the kick.

We both land on the ground and get a solid footing.

My hands are numb from the blocking. But im not tired.

He flies towards me with his legs in a drop kick but im fast to respond and turn my body to the left, using my left palm to redirect his hit over to the right.

He continues flying but quickly stops because he hit the metal mountain pile.

I turn around to face him again.

Surely enough, his thrusters produce blinding light as he flies and reaches in front of me but around 30 centimeters higher that my head.

His leg comes down in a kick motion. I didn't respond fast enough and was forced to block the hit.

I raise my arms and the kick lands just in front of my elbow. The hit is too strong. I can feel it damaging my bone.

I redirect it to the side. The kick reaches the ground and the sand under us bursts in the air.

I take this chance when his vision is obstructed and round house kick him in the back, the big thruster on his back was closed. The hit lands and breaks a part of his suit and damages the big thruster while sending him a couple meters away on the ground.

I take a momentary pause to deal with the pain on my hands. My right hand specifically was ready to bust because of his last kick. My arms are numb but I can still punch just fine.

So this is the power of someone in the top 50 heroes eh?

He slowly gets of the ground. It seems that my hits are hard enough to have a goo effect on him too. He was breathing heavy and strained.

"Damn.* heavy breathing* I didnt think that I would be having a hard time beating a simple vigilante.."

I didnt let him get up as I went in for a knee attack. Right before my hit lands a blinding light comes from under him and a strong force knocks on my chest, reaching all the way down my stomach.

All the air in my lungs gets forced out of me as my body is sent flying upwards.

"OVERDRIVE KICK"

My ribs felt like they broke the instant the hit landed on them, but I was too stunned to check.

"OVERDRIVE PUNCH"

His voice makes me exit my stunned state and I instinctively use my legs and arms to protect my front.

My limbs reach just fast enough to take the force of the hit. But the punch didn't stop there.

Rocket man's feet, back and leg thrusters where shining brightly as he was flying with me on his fist. He used me as a ram and broke through the steel container of the truck, ripping through both walls and then throwing me to the sky.

Time feels like it slows down as I continue flying upwards.

The image of Rocketeer powering up his thrusters to launch another attack is clear. And the outcome of that hit landing on me is just as clear. I wont be able to fight after that.

Is this it?

I'm gonna be beaten by the first hero that I face?

Am I gonna be taken to some facility?

The little family that I have stripped from me?

Because of a single hero?! That's not even in the main cast?!

"TO HELL WITH HOLDING BACK!"

Rage envelops me as I charge up my ki, powering up to the epitome of my current ability.

A small shockwave gets released in tandem with white, flame like ki appearing around me. The hood of the cloak I'm wearing flies of my head.

Rocketeer is visibly shocked but continues with his attack, flying towards me with his punch outstretched forward.

I cock my first back and punch downwards the moment he gets in my range.

The collision was short, with the armor on his hands completely shattering and his knuckles bleeding.

He falls to the ground, and I follow behind by flying to him.

When I reach him I hook his side and throw him further away.

He is coughing blood. From the hit, so I momentarily stop to appraise him.

I look into his eyes. He is clearly in a bad state, but his eyes are not giving in to mine.

He is using his thrusters to keep himself up. His vision must be quite blurry as well.

"Ha..... Ha Ha.. HAHAHA!"

He looks at me in disbelief as he laughs.

"You are a freak! You where holding back all this time..."

He looks to the ground and breathes fast as he coughs some blood.

"One last time... yeah.. I can do it.."

He gets back in to stance. His engines flaring just like before with the blinding light. He is using Overdrive again.

This guy... He is quite admirable.

But unlike before he doesn't speed towards me. Instead he blitzes around me.

He is probably trying to confuse me with his speed and the light the engines produce.

"THIS ONE WILL END IT!"

He shouts, the sound traveling from all around me.

The light is too strong and makes me close my eyes.

He takes this as a sign to make his last attempt. He places both his legs forward in the form of a drop-kick and uses his thrusters at maximum output to maximize the damage he would cause.

Would.

If I couldn't sense the direction he is coming from with my ki sense.

I stretch my right hand and grab on one of his legs as my body spins around. I place my left hand on his chest, my fingers forming a cup around a ball of white blue ki.

I look at him in the eyes and he looks back as the ki blast explodes on his chest.

His body gets yeeted away and rolls on the ground. When he stops he doesn't move.

The blast wasn't as strong as I could make it in my current state. But using anything stronger would endanger his life.

But just to be sure, I ignore the pain coming from my chest and arms and check up on his state.

His vital signs where ok and he was breathing.

I power down and sigh in relief. I cock my head back and look at the dark sky.

"He is ok. He is very beat up and multiple bones are broken, but I let him in a healable state"

I look behind some metal cars. The side kick is there, obviously scared.

Nah, he mustn't be a side-kick. A side-kick as a certified hero, this guy doesn't have the necessary attitude for that. So there is only one other case I can think of.

"Are you perhaps a hero work-study student?"

He falls back with fear evident on his face.

"Y-YE-YES. I'm a student of UA high school! Second year!"

I see. So they normally had hero studies at the second year rather than the first like in the anime. because there wasn't a rise of villains with the incidents that happened in the anime like the league of villains and the stain incident.

"I see. You better call the ambulance and the police. There are multiple criminals lying around that need arresting as you can see. And this guy Rocketeer need to be brought to the hospital."

I stand up straight. The adrenaline of the fight before loses effect and the pain starts hitting hard.

I give a peace sign to the student before I start running out of the vicinity. As far as possible from this place.

Soo much for being secretive.

Chapter END

---------------------------------------------------------

5165 words

A good chapter I believe.

I was thinking of ending it when Rocketeer made his appearance. But then I thought: 'That would be a cliffhanger'

So I didn't.

So. The first boss battle concludes.

Tell me your thoughts on the fight. I would like to improve.

On another note. I found out that the title already has chapter X without me writing it. LOL

On another note as well, should fights be explained in detail like I do? (or at least I believe I have a good amount of detail in them).

I believe that in this fight some traces of inexperience can be seen in how the mc moves and reacts but not by too much. He is relying on instinct as a ancient saiyan obviously.

I had another question I wanted to make, but I forgot it while writing.

I've been writing this for around 12 hours... I deserve rest...
