Hope

What happened next was a tragedy.

The training camp, which should have become a good memory for everyone, became a nightmare.

It was an utter defeat with many casualties.

Fifteen minutes after the accident, the hospitals, policies, reinforcements, and many others came one after another to help everyone in the training camp.

Two members of the Pussycats were hurt, and they were in critical condition.

As for the students, except for those who stayed in the facility were hurt in various degrees, from mild to severe.

However, even if they were hurt, their condition wasn't that critical, especially after Mineta had given them his drink before. When he gave his girls his drinks, he also gave a share to the rest of the students. They also went to give them to all the students who were affected by the poisonous gas.

With his drink, it could solve a poison and also heal someone to a certain extent.

Mineta had developed an amazing ability, and everyone should be happy, yet unfortunately, they couldn't.

Everyone, whether it was the students of Class 1-A or Class 1-B, was at the hospital and needed to do checks and many others, yet no one was in the mood to say anything. They lowered their heads, and worry filled their hearts.

Uraraka's eyes were red, and she tried not to cry, but she couldn't. Her tears kept dripping, but Tsuyu was on her side, so Tsuyu tried her best to console her.

Hagakure cried as she leaned on Mina's shoulder.

However, no one tried to soothe her since, similar to Hagakure; they also felt the same.

However, the worst ones were Ibara, Kendo, Reiko, Jiro, and Yui. Their faces were pale, and even if someone tried to call them, they didn't even respond. Their eyes were dead, and they just didn't have any strength in their bodies.

When silence filled the room, Monoma looked at his classmates, gritting his teeth, before he looked at two people with hate and shouted, "Didn't I tell you to stay? Look what have you done?! If you didn't do something, then you weren't a hero. Don't make me laugh?!" His voice was full of ridicule and anger. "Are you a hero now? You're just a fucking burden!"

"Oi, Monoma!" Tetsutestu tried to stop Monoma, but Monoma didn't stop and kept staring at the two people who had been lowering their heads. "Are you satisfied now? Because of your selfish actions, everything has become like this! If you didn't come, then with the help of Aizawa-sensei, that guy might be able to win, but you ruin fucking everything!"

Monoma still remembered how Mineta created a fifty-meter giant with his substance. When he saw it, he felt a sense of helplessness and thought that he wouldn't be able to defeat him, yet it also gave him great confidence in Mineta, thinking Mineta could handle the previous situation, especially with Aizawa's help, whose Quirk could seal someone's Quirk.

The combination of the two wasn't a simple one plus one became two.

Instead, they were invincible.

However, when everything was moving in the right direction, suddenly, two troublemakers came out and ruined everything.

What was even worse, Mineta was caught.

Monoma didn't know what Mineta's condition was now, but one thing was for sure, his condition was definitely far from good.

And everything was because of Midoriya and Bakugou!

Midoriya and Bakugou couldn't say anything. They could only lower their heads, grit their teeth, and clench their palms tightly.

Shame, guilt, depression, frustrations, and many other negative emotions filled their hearts.

Every word that came out from Monoma's mouth was like a knife that was stabbed into their bodies.

Yet they knew that he was right.

They were stupid.

"MONOMA!" Tetsutetsu roared since the situation was already like this, but Monoma tried to make it bigger. He was furious at Monoma since even if Monoma hated Class 1-A, Monoma shouldn't say something like this.

"Do you think I am wrong, Tetsutetsu?" Monoma didn't fear Tetsutetsu but asked.

"I..."

Tetsutetsu couldn't answer Monoma since this was what he also thought.

Everyone also felt the same, especially those who were present.

The battle between Hokusai and Mineta wasn't something they could join, even if they hated to admit it.

Whether Hokusai or Mineta, they were on different levels.

Hokusai could create a battalion of the army with various modern weapons. He could even send out many missiles without a limit.

Unlike those who needed to think about the law, Hokusai didn't care about the law.

How could they defeat such an opponent?

Before they could even get closer, their bodies would be riddled with holes from Hokusai's soldiers!

As for Mineta, they couldn't even say anything since his strength was already something they couldn't imagine.

Their battle was something impossible for them to join, yet Midoriya and Bakugou decided to enter naively, thinking they could do something. In the end, they were used by Hokusai as a trap to lure Mineta, and as expected, the villains were able to capture Mineta.

Midoriya and Bakugou knew all of this, so they couldn't say anything when Monoma lashed them out since everything was their fault.

Monoma wanted to say something again, but Momo said, "Monoma-san, enough."

"I..."

Monoma quickly shut his mouth when he saw Momo's sharp eyes. Like others, she was also hurt, and she also had a bandage wrapped around her forehead. Similar to the rest, she also fought a villain, but her opponent was a Nomu.

When she fought the Nomu, all she could do was run away while attacking it from time to time to slow down and catch it. Unfortunately, Nomu was too strong. Still, the fight between Mineta and Hokusai changed everything, and Nomu also stopped chasing after her.

Momo looked at the device in her hand and looked at Ibara and Kendo before she looked at Yui and Reiko. While she sighed inwardly, realizing how stupid she was, her feeling toward him didn't change, and she was clear about what she wanted to do.

As for the others, she decided to keep this matter a secret.

"Everyone is tired. Let's just go back for now."

They looked at Momo, whose face was sharper and more solemn.

Todoroki wanted to say that as a hero, they should have done something, but when he was about to open his lips, he hesitated, so in the end, he didn't say anything. He looked at Bakugou and Midoriya before he looked at Momo quietly before he left with everyone.

However, there were still many who stayed, especially those who had a relationship with Mineta.

Still, when most of them left, Momo faced the four girls and said, "Hey, do you want to save Mineta?" Then, she quickly told them how to save Mineta since she knew she needed their power.

"Huh?" 4x

Their eyes, which were dead, quickly regained their spirits. There was still an amber on the pure white ash, and slowly it grew into a little flame of hope.

While Momo had said this matter to the teachers and the police, she didn't say this to her classmates since she knew how reckless and stupid they were. She didn't want anything to happen to Mineta again, but her power alone wasn't enough, so she decided to rely on them, and compared to the others, the girls, who were trained by Mineta, were several times stronger than others.

"Momo, can you count me in too?"

Hagakure, who didn't leave, suddenly said.

Momo looked at Hagakure in surprise before her expression became complicated, and she sighed helplessly, realizing what kind of bastard Mineta was, yet her feeling didn't change.

"Okay, listen to me. I have put a tracker on Nomu's body with the help of Yosetsu Awase-san." Momo took out a tracker device and said, "With this, we should know where he is, so do you want to go with me to save him?"

No one hesitated, and they all agreed.

Jiro, who listened to their conversation, was in a complicated mood. She looked at her classmates, which were in front of her, before she let out a sigh and decided to keep this matter a secret, but... she was going to follow them.
