Chapter 46: Training Camp (3)

{3rd Person POV}

When the clock struck five o'clock, the students were woken up thanks to Mandalay who told them to wake up through her telepathy.

Class A students got up first, by the time it was five thirty all of them had changed into their gym uniform as per the order of Aizawa.

Looking at his students, Aizawa started to speak "Good morning everyone. Today we begin a rigorous round of reinforcement training. This trip's mission statement is to strengthen everyone's quirks as a whole, thereby allowing everyone to achieve their temporary licenses. This is preparation to stand against and up to live-action hostility and aggression from your enemy. Prepare your hearts and mind." Then throwing a ball to Bakugo he continued "With that said, Bakugo, try throwing this."

Catching and looking at the ball, Bakugo inquired "This is from the quirk assessment test."

"Your records indicate you recorded a toss of meters at the time of your admittance, Let's see how much you have improved." Aizawa said.

"All right." Saying that Bakugo walked over to the spot where Aizawa had pointed out

"Woha. A skill growth test!" Ashido said excitedly.

"These three months have been pretty intense, I'm calling over 1km." Sero said.

"You got this Bakugo!" Kirihima cheered for Bakugo.

As he got to a comfortable position to throw the ball, he threw it with a flurry of explosions from his hand while shouting at the top of his lungs "DROP DEAD!!"

The ball flew over the woods and in a couple of seconds it touched the ground.

*Beep*

With that, the distance of the ball was calculated by the machine Aizawa had. Looking at it, Aizawa said "709.6 meters."

"!!?" Everyone was surprised as they thought that there would be a significant difference from the quirk assessment test.

"Huh..? That's not even close to what we expected..." Sero said what was on everyone's mind.

"In three months, you have all gained a lot of experience. And of course, you have certainly grown. But that growth has been primarily emotional and technical." He continued as he walked back to the area in front of his students "Now the time has come to concentrate on physical advancement as well. As you can see, your "Quirks" themselves have only improved, at best by a marginal amount." With his usual wicked grin he continued "So, starting today, we will focus on upgrading your quirks. I will be pushing you beyond your limits. So try not to kick the bucket on me."

Shifting his attention to four of his students, he said "Bakugo, Todoroki, Kaminari and Saiba have to stay back. Everyone else, proceed towards the training area. They are waiting for you."

With the five of them standing there, the other students of class A left for their training.

Looking at Bakugo, Aizawa said "Your training is to expand your sweat glands to get powerful explosions."

Turning to Todoroki he said "You need to train both your fire and ice so that you could use them simultaneously. Individually, you have mastered ice and fire, so there is no need to do that."

Pointing at his own head, Aizawa said "Kaminari, your body needs to handle large amounts of electricity so you will be training for that."

Then he looked at the final student he held back and said "And finally, Saiba. You need to increase the energy storage of yours. I know that you can take a large amount of energy at a time and redirect it, but storing it in your body is tough. I'm not saying that you can't, it's not enough that's all."

"Now, you four might be wondering why I told you to stay. It's due to your training. You three will be training while surrounding Saiba, and your job is to absorb all the energy from their quirks and try to store it. If you can't, then shoot it upwards. Got it?" Aizawa asked Saiba.

"Yes Sir!" Saiba replied.

"Good. Then go and train to your bones." Aizawa told the four.

Half an hour into the training of Class A, Saiba was standing in the middle surrounded by Bakugo, Todorioki and Kaminari. The three of them were blasting their quirks to the fullest, and Saiba absorbed the explosions from Bakugo, fire from Todoroki and electricity from Kaminari. He also released enough heat energy to melt the ice created by Todoroki.

On top of an elevation created by Pixie-Bob, Sero was shooting his tapes to make it stronger and lengthier. On another elevation, Uraraka was training to get rid of her nausea whenever she used her quirk. Near them, Jiro and Ashido were training their respective quirks by using it repeatedly without a break.

Momo and Sato were eating food, Sato ate sweets to increase his sugar capacity to use his quirk and Momo was eating inorder to create more items from her body. Shoji and Hagakure were training in information gathering and stealth simultaneously, basically they were playing hide and seek, Shoji being the seeker and Hagakure being the hidden one.

Tokoyami, with his Dark Shadow was inside a cave that was dark, he was training to control his quirk Dark Shadow. Asui was climbing the steep hills using her tongue, Ayaoma was blasting his laser beam up to the sky and he was near a portable toilet. Koda was training his voice to command as many animals as possible.

Kirishima was using his hardening quirk to defend against the relentless attack from Ojiro using his tail. Iida was running around the training area as fast as he could and also trying to improve his turning ability.

"What is this? Hell?" One of the students from Class B asked no one in particular after seeing the spectacle in front of them.

Standing at the rear of his students, Vlad King spoke "Those whose abilities have allowable upper limits placed on them must raise those limits. Mutants and other composite beings must train their respective organs and body parts. Normally, we adjust the training based on physical growth.."

"But we don't have the time. Class B, you guys hurry up, too." Aizawa told them.

"But once we join, there will be forty in total. Can six people really handle that many quirks at once?" Kendo, the president of Class B asked.

"That's why they are here." As soon as Aizawa said that, the four Pussy Cat members introduced themselves. Ragdoll has the quirk Search, which allows her to observe and monitor up to 100 people at a time, their locations and weak points too. Pixie Bob has the quirk Earthflow, which allows her to control earth. Mandalay has the quirk Telepath, which allows her to connect with everyone and instruct multiple people at once. And finally Tiger, who is in charge of punching and kicking.

As the introductions were given to Class B, Bakugo was having the time of his life as he was able to blast explosions at Saiba without holding back.

"Hold!" As soon as Saiba said that, the three of them stopped using their quirks so that Siaba could divert the excess energy he had absorbed.

Looking at Saiba, Bakugo said with a smug look "Can't handle it geezer boy?"

Turning towards Bakugo, Saiba said "You don't have any other insult to throw at me? Geezer boy is getting old." Sighing, Saiba said "Again!"

They used their quirks again, and Saiba easily absorbed the first three and said "Hold!"

This was repeated many times, so that Saiba could store those energies in him. When time was up and everyone was returning to the camp, exhausted, Saiba started to think as he walked with his friends 'I can't store these energies in me while I absorb the solar radiation constantly. As my cells are already full, then where should I store these energies? Should I make an Energy Heart like the Mana Heart? Or should I make Energy Rings like Mana RIngs? Or should I store it in the dantain? Food for thought.'

When all the students from Class A and B reached the campsite, Ragdoll and Pixie Bob gave them the ingredients for preparing curry for dinner.

Saiba, having the experience in cooking, made delicious curry that was finished in an instant as everyone wanted a portion of it, even the Class B students. After their dinner, they went to bed, except for Ashido, Kirishima, Sato and Kaminari from Class A and Monoma from Class B had extra classes as they failed in the finals.
