Battle tournament part 1

It was time for the third round to begin. Sekizan was waiting for this moment, a race and a cavalry battle didn't bring him much enjoyment to participate in, it was nothing in the face of the good old and reliable one on one battle. This was much more of a duel with rules and stuff but he still will put his abilities to the test here as well.

In a fight he didn't restrict himself in the moves he is allowed to use. A battle between two people is a sacred ordeal, holding back is blasphemy in the face of the gods of combat. He will of course not completely annihilate his opponents, senseless violence is uncalled for on this setting,they being his schoolmates and teens, but he will give his maximum effort to win.

" All right lady's and gent's. The brackets for the fights have been released, the participants who are designated for the first fight please proceed to go to the arena, the rest can go to the viewing stand or the waiting room, thank you." Present Mic, directed the students, calling the contestants for the first fight of the first round.

Sekizan sat at the stand to watch his classmates fight. He felt with his senses that in his class only a few people had the capacity of harming him. But he found it appropriate to analyze their real capabilities. It was wise to be humble, never underestimate your opponents.

Kirishima sat by his side, his fight will be more to the end of bracket.

"Midoriya will fight first with the guy who declared war on our class, what do you think will happen?" Kirishima asked the tall ginger. He found that he had vast knowledge on fighting related matters.

"Well, neither of them have solid strategies or any martial related training, you can see it based on their stances. It seems that Shinso guy is over-reliant on his quirk, let's see what he can do." Sekizan commented, making idle conversation.

The other students heard their conversation and began to see the current fight based on the analyzes he made.

The fight per se was horrible to watch, Shinso did not even deign himself to move from his starting position. He just relied on his mind control type quirk to win. Midoriya in turn somehow was able to get out of his control, the rest was a mess to describe.

"Look at that, this shinso proclaimed that he could be a hero as well, but it seems that he did not work even a day to realize his goals. "Sekizan commented after the fight. He could see that the kid did not put even a bit of effort in his game to show his value, the only thing that someone could get out of this is that he had a mind control quirk.

"Hm, that 's right! Let's hope he can work hard from now on! He had a powerful quirk." Kirishima tried to look at it in a positive way.

"Hm." Sekizan responded with not much attention. He noticed that the ice boy entered the stage pissed out of his mind. It seems that the conversation that he had with his father soured his mood.

He watched as Shoto used his ice quirk to absolutely steam roll his opponent with just brute force.

"What a troublesome quirk that is huh?" Sekizan did not say much. It was not a match with much content to comment on, just the crazy output his classmate could dish out.

The matches passed one after another, until it was his turn to enter the arena. He jumped from the stands and landed softly on the stage's ground. His opponent was a pink skinned girl, Mina was her name apparently.

"We got on the right, the expert martial artist, the one who proves that we humans are indeed primates in our core, the giant ginger, Scarlatti Sekizan!" Present Mic said loudly with hype.

Sekizan had a vein pulsing on his forehead. Did he just called him an ape? He must Have heard it wrong.

" And on our left, we have the corrosive skater girl, the pink ballerina, our one and only Mina Ashido!!" He introduced her much more amiably, as if to rub salt on the wound.

On the stands Kirishima was laughing his ass off, the face that Sekizan made to not show dissatisfaction was hilarious.

"Let the battle begin!" He announced the beginning of the match.

Mina tried to maintain a safe distance from the tall red head. She knew his abilities in close combat; she used acid on her feet to slide away and from her hands she shooted a jet of concentrated acid, hoping to rely on a mid to long distance approach to win the battle.

Sekizan saw all of this and slowly approached the running girl, evading the acid with acrobatic movements, he could see the direction that she was aiming based on her hand position, it made it easy for him to predict the trajectory of the streams of acid. Slowly he cornered the pink teen, giving her only one way to move, forward in his direction, away from the end of the stage.

She in turn took a deep breath to gain courage and rushed forward, at the same time shooting streams of acid to make her opponent retreat or get out of the way, opening a window so she could escape the end of the stage.

"Ahh!!" She shouted moving forward.

' Where did he go?' She thought at the end of her dash observing the absence of a giant teen in her field of view. Suddenly she saw a shadow above her line of vision, moving her head up she saw a foot come right at her face.

*Bang!*

Sekizan struck the top of her head as he jumped and front flipped into a heel kick, immediately finishing the match as the girls bounced on the stage because of the momentum of the kick.

' She will be fine, we got a amazing doctor at our corner.' he thought idly seeing the downed girl.

"Ooh! That's a wrap! Only one move and Mina is down for the count! What ruthlessness! Cobra Kai no mercy!" The irritating voice of Present Mic reverberated in the arena.

' What an annoying person, where does he come up with all of these ideas he uses to annoy other people?' Sekizan thought quietly as he walked out of the stage, he found that being in the presence of the loud hero made him exercise his composure more often than his normal times.

He got to the stands as the medics carried his opponent to the infirmary. The next fight was between Tokoyami and Momo.

Surprisingly the fight was one sided, it seems that the girl had some stage fright and did not perform well, making the victory go to Tokoyami.

It was Kirishima's turn next, he had gone to the waiting room in the middle of Momo's match to prepare for his own, he will battle with a student from the class 1B who had a similar quirk than him, the fight was expected to become an all out brawl, he waited to see how his friend fared.

The two contestants approached the stage and looked at each other. When the fight began, as expected, they began to brawl immediately, abandoning any semblance of defense, relying on the toughness of their quirk, to dish out the maximum output of attacks as possible.

Looking from an observer point of view, it was a match that could only end with a draw, the two people in it were too similar.

The two continued to punch each other with abandon, Kirishima was feeling fatigued and in his mind he was trying to find the energy to go on.

' I cannot fall right now! How can I lose so easily? I will never stop! Continue punching, how can you be a man if you are stopped by such obstacles!?' He was hyping himself up, fighting his fatigue as much as he fought his opponent.

' I am unbreakable! I will continue to stand here until only one of us falls, let's see if you got the resolve to stand in front of me for long?!' He punched and punched until he was having hallucinations for lack of oxygen,that was until he punched again and did not feel the impact at the end of his hand.

Kirishima took a deep breath and looked at his opponent, Tetsu Tetsu was on the ground, he was unmoving, only his eyes and chest were moving gasping for air, but he was looking at his direction, with a look of resignation on his face.

Midnight moved to check the condition of the felled teen, after she ascertained his condition she said.

" Tetsu Tetsu is unable to continue, the winner of this match is Kirishima Eijiro! " The crowd cheered for the two brave students, and his class waved at him as well, happy for his victory.

' Heh, what a manly bastard.' Sekizan thought with a mirthful smile. It seems that his friends had it in him after all.

(An: all right! This was more of a test chapter I tried to write a mix of things, I described the fights of other briefly for the sake of continuity, and put some fight analysis as well, it was hard as the fights did not have much to comment about, and finally put the fight of Kirishima as well to show how the mc influenced his mentality. Give me your thoughts on this chapter, it was a bit different to write but I'm down for trying new things.

Give me some stones as well, let's keep this fic ball rolling!!!)
