"Midoriya Izuku, Hikari Kyouta, you two will be participating in the second race."
These were the words of Teacher Aizawa addressed to both Midoriya and Kyouta, and all the students looked at these two after knowing that they would participate in the second race.
At that time, both Bakugo and Iida had placed their feet at the starting line of the short race track.
Bakugo moved his red eyes slightly and looked at Tenya Iida out of the corner of his eye, spotting the serious look on Iida's face. His glasses were steady, his breathing was regular, and his blue eyes were calm. All of these things made Bakugo realize that his opponent was calm and did not feel any tension or hesitation. That's why Bakugo moved his eyes to look at Iida's feet, thinking;
'Looking at his physique, he exercises regularly, it's clear he's a committed person. In addition to these motors on his feet, is he a mobile bike or something? Anyway, it is clear that my opponent has the advantage in the speed race, this will be annoying but I will try to win anyway.'
As for Iida, he did not look at his opponent's face at all, as his sight was fixed on the finish line, thinking;
'Don't look to the right or to the left. At Teacher Aizawa's signal, I'll be heading towards the finish line. Speed is my specialty, I must never lose in this race...'
They both had a desire to win, but it can be said that Iida's desire to win was completely greater than Bakugo's, all of this is because Iida is so keen to win this race because he has the advantage.
As for Bakugo, he knew full well that winning this particular race was not the goal of this test, and that if he competed with the person whose specialty is the speed, that would mean that Bakugo would get a better record than the rest of the students since he would be competing with the fastest person. For this reason, Bakugo looked right and left, at the faces of the students around him, realizing that his goal was not to win this race, but rather to achieve a record that the other students could not achieve.
Both Midoriya and Kyouta headed to the empty place behind Bakugo and Iida, as when the first race will be over they must take their positions and run as fast as they could.
"Okay, on my word... Ready..."
Teacher Aizawa uttered these words that caused both Bakugo and Iida to enter serious mode, and then...
*Bash!*
Teacher Aizawa gave the start signal, as he was standing at the finish line and holding the timer in his hand, and immediately after the start signal...
*Booom!!*
Bakugo fired explosions from his hands behind him in order to rush and fly forward quickly. These explosions shook Iida's hair with their winds and shook his determination as well, as this action was very sudden and unexpected for him.
The black smoke resulting from those explosions had covered Kyouta's entire body because he was standing about four meters behind Bakugo, as he said in a calm tone while he was in the middle of that black smoke;
"Hmm, but what about me? I can't watch the race like this..."
Bakugo was able to complete a quarter of the race distance, ahead of Iida by a large margin, while the latter was feeling ashamed, thinking;
'What an amazing idea, using explosions to propel his body forward as if he was an air balloon. But shame on me for giving up so quickly!'
The orange flames in the engines at Iida's feet quickly intensified, and immediately after that, he started running at double speed.
Only four seconds passed, and Iida was able to take the first rank and win the race.
At first, Bakugo thought he had crossed the finish line first, but Iida threw his foot straight forward, beating Bakugo by 0.03 seconds.
The end of the race was not expected at all, as when Iida used his nitro, he surpassed Bakugo's speed and completely outpaced him. If the track had been longer, Iida's victory would have been easier.
Bakugo kept looking quietly at Iida, who was looking at the ground and catching his breath, thinking;
'As I expected, this person is fast and accustomed to using his ability. My victory was imminent, but that's not important, I bet I have the second best record in the class, that's enough for now.'
During these thoughts, eye contact occurred between Kyouta, who was standing at the starting line, and Bakugo, who was standing at the finish line, and these were the thoughts of each of them at that moment;
'Is this all you were able to achieve? I expected more.' Kyouta's thoughts.
'Huh? What's with that cold look on his face? As if he's looking at someone lower in status than him? Or are you saying that you are able to break my record? Go ahead...'
Both Kyouta and Midoriya were ready to start the race, and while they were both focused with teacher Aizawa who would give the start signal, Kyouta said in a calm tone;
"Hey, What record do you think you will be able to achieve in this race?"
Without looking at Kyouta, Midoriya answered as his sight was limited to the finish line;
"11.60 ~ 12.20 seconds."
Kyouta replied with a calm face while also looking at the finish line;
"Bakugo and Iida's records is 7:30 and 7:33. I can make you finish the race in half that time. Do you need my help?"
Midoriya was surprised by this, unexpectedly he would get this kind of help, but he said;
"Thanks, but I will do my best."
Immediately after this answer, Kyota pointed his right wrist towards the finish line and said;
"In this case, do not despair of what you will see."
