Battle Training

The morning came and the students get dressed, preparing themselves for the day ahead. Kuro comes out of his room and both Meliodas and Ban call out to him and he turns to them. They wave at him and Kuro waves back but notices Christopher wasn't with them. "Maybe he's still in his room." he thought before they all walk over to class. Everyone enters the class and gathers to talk about the events last night had with the mysterious portal and the fight they had witnessed inside it. "That was insane!" Kaminari says with a few agreeing among each other. "Who was that man though?" Mina asks. "Which one, the grey-haired one?" Asui asks and Mina shakes her head. "The green one. He looked awfully similar to Midoriya and he was insanely powerful." Mina replies before they all look at Midoriya. "She's right, They did look similar but that really doesn't matter honestly. I wonder why didn't the grey-haired guy use his quirk when he had such a powerful one in the first place." Mineta says when the classroom door opens and Aizawa walks in. "Enough talking." Aizawa says and the room goes silent as he walks over to his desk. "I was informed of what happened in the dorms. It was unexpected but we aren't taking what happened lightly. If you see something like that again, inform a teacher immediately."

"Yes sir!" the class replies.

"That aside, there's something else I'm here to announce. Your Provisional Hero Licensing Exam will-." Aizawa explains when everyone hears a sudden knock on the door and the door slides open, revealing to be Christopher. Christopher calls for Kuro, Meliodas, and Ban to follow him which confuses Kuro but Meliodas and Ban walk towards him without even a shred of confusion on their faces. Kuro quickly gets up and follows behind them and they all leave the classroom. "Where are we going?" Kuro asks and Christopher stops before turning around and smiles. "You'll see."

There was a knock on the door of Eri, Horiko, Ray, Seo, and the other room. Seo opens the door, revealing it to be Christopher and he asks everyone to follow him. He agrees before calling the others and they all follow him outside the building. They all reach an indoor training field and were all confused as to the purpose of coming here when they saw Kuro, Meliodas, and Ban walking with another Christopher who disappears immediately after they arrive. "Looks like everyone is present." Christopher says and they all look at him confused but Meliodas and Ban begin to smile as if they are expecting something.

"Kurosu, Horiko and Eri. Please step forward." Christopher says and they look at him, confused but follow his instructions regardless. "We need to prepare you all for your fight so today we will be training you all." Christopher announces which further confuses the trio who stares at him seemingly not understanding his words. Christopher looked at the adults and signaled to everyone to leave the building before suddenly a second Christopher appeared next to them and guides them out of the building. They were all brought outside to an outdoor training field somewhat distant from the indoor training grounds the kids are in. "For all of you, an All-Out Battle Royale. The victor is the last person standing." Christopher announces to the adults. They are all visibly confused but the adults separate and slowly move backward, distancing themselves from each other. "It's been a while since I got to let loose!" Ray says. "I will crush everyone here easily." Lemillion exclaims, while the others prepare themselves for the battle

" 3,

2,

1,

Begin!"

"What the hell are we doing?!" Eri asks, somewhat confused by the situation. "I'll have you three go up against each other one at a time. Afterward, you three will have a full, no restrained battle royale against each other." Christopher replies. "Why not start with the battle royale?" Eri asks. "I'm using this first fight as a gauge to figure out your current power and skills." They finally understood the situation and they all agree to participate. Christopher then calls on both Eri and Horiko to step forward and they stand in preparation, keeping an eye on each other's every move.

"Go!" Christopher yells and the two of them run towards one another. Horiko quickly activates his quirk and extends a dark spike at her when lightning suddenly forms around her and she quickly maneuvers around it before dashing towards Horiko, grabbing his arm and he thinks she's going to punch him so he quickly extends a dark spike from his chest but to his surprise, she instead twisted his arm and slammed him into the ground before kicking him like a ball, causing him to slam into the wall but she didn't see he extended a dark hand which grabs her and throws her to the wall but she catches herself and floats up into the air. "What quirk does she have?!" Kuro asks, surprised by the girl's skill and abundance of abilities. "She still has the embers of One For All so she's utilizing her options." Christopher replies calmly as if seeing this scenario before which intrigues Kuro but he shifts his focus onto the ongoing battle. Horiko quickly dashes towards Eri again and shoots multiple dark spikes at her and she dodges again and again before quickly appearing behind him and punches him in the back, sending him flying to a wall. Eri pauses her attacks and he shakingly gets up when suddenly Christopher appears next to him and helps him up. "Why don't you try using One For All?" Christopher says which confuses Horiko. "What do you mean? Have I not been using One For All this whole time?"

"You have been using your quirk which was enhanced by One For All but you haven't touched the other quirks inside you. Let me help you get a grasp on them." Christopher says before his hand changes into small black spikes with red lines which stabs Horiko in the shoulder. He lets out a slight screech of pain but froze.

["Forceful Quirk Activation"]

He suddenly feels a strange energy moving through his body. Red lines course throughout his body as he feels incredible power when his vision suddenly shifts, returning in a void like place where he can see his hands but can't speak and he realizes that most of his body is missing. He looks around and see 9 individuals, two seem visibly similar to Eri and Toshinori while the others seem like shadows but one of the shadows steps forward and it suddenly revealed themself to be the same woman he saw when he first recieved One For All and the same woman who helped him in his fight with Toshinori. "You're finally here." the woman says. "Where am I?" Horiko thinks but he can't put his thoughts to words as his mouth is gone in his shadow. "It seems you are finally ready to use our power, you can't handle it all currently but if you train enough, you will be able to use our powers effectively, Goodluck." the woman says and Horiko couldn't understand and wanted to learn more but it all quickly ends when Christopher pulls out the spike from his shoulder. "What was that?!" Horiko asks astonished by what happened. "Do not worry, I just made you activate One For All. Now try to find that same energy you felt earlier." Christopher says and Horiko closes his eyes to focus and feels that same energy but it was quickly stopped when Eri appeared and kicked him into the ground. Horiko quickly gets up and looks at the girl, annoyed and upset by her interference. She dashes at him again when his body suddenly moved on its own and it took a step forward before One For All activates which catches Eri by surprise and he punched her back, sending her flying back with a large shockwave that followed and causing her to break through the wall and onto the ground outside which catches the attention of the adults who pause their fight to see the little girl on the ground. This was no victory for Horiko either, he feels immense pain in his arm after that attack and he realizes that his right arm was broken.

"Such power!" Horiko thinks to himself as he grips his now broken arm when suddenly Christopher released a green mist which healed his right arm. "I forgot to mention that you must spread that power throughout your body to evenly distribute the power and lower the total percentage of One For All used." Christopher adds before placing his arm on his shoulder. "Focus." he says. Horiko focuses and feels the same energy emerging from the center of his body as he tries to slowly spread the energy throughout his body. He pushes the energy as hard as he can and he evenly spreads it throughout his body. He suddenly feels an immense surge of power throughout his body and his body felt lighter and stronger but it was difficult to maintain continuously without losing focus. He turns to Christopher while trying to maintain the power flowing throughout his body and Christopher smiles which he reciprocates when suddenly Eri appears, about to hit him with a strong attack which he tries to dodge when he suddenly lands at the end of the building which surprises everyone but the sudden attack broke his focus and One For All was deactivated.

"What just happened?!" Horiko thinks to himself, shocked by the immense speed he had in that moment. "I knew One For All would be stronger with him but I never expected it to be at this extent." Christopher thinks to himself before teleporting next to him and placing his hand on his shoulder. "Impressive, it was much more powerful than I expected so could you reactivate it for me?" Christopher asks and Horiko confused, agrees to do it. He widens his stance and takes a deep breath, focusing on finding that same energy which he quickly does, he begins spreading the energy throughout his body as the lines fade and lightning apprears throughout, Christopher closes his right eye and his left eye turns golden. He examines the boy thoroughly before mumbling under his breath: "20%, so soon?"

Christopher stares at Horiko, bewildered by Horiko's ability to use so much of One For All in such a short amount of time. Eri then dashes towards Horiko and he tries to activate it but he wasn't fast enough and she manages to push him back. "How can he use so much of One For All if it's been enhanced to this extent?" Christopher ponders as the battle continues. He then remembers what Eri stated during their reunion.

"After Horiko took One For All from me I was instructed by the previous users to rewind my body to regain One For All. After when I did I realized that the One For All I had was weaker than the original. I don't know why this was the case but I have a leading theory, which is that in rewinding myself I ultimately made 2 One For All's and in perhaps some way the world regulates power, it instead split One For All into two and each of us only bearing half it's original strength."

"So thats it, its still stronger than the One For All Toshinori bears but it is only half of its full power. This must be why he can use so much of it in such a short time." Christopher says to himself before shifting his focus back to the fight at hand.

Horiko activates One For All again and tries to punch Eri but she quickly dodges and jumps back and then Kuro remembers his previous fight with Midoriya and remembered how he used his fingers to shoot air bullets at him. "Horiko, your fingers. Use them!" Kuro yells and he hears it but was confused for a moment and stares at his hand but quickly realized what Kuro meant when he snapped his fingers and a shockwave spread throughout the field and pushed Eri back. Kuro knew that Horiko didn't understand what he meant but didn't correct Horiko's misunderstanding as to his surprise, it still worked. "If it works, it works I guess." Kuro whispers under his breath as he continues to watch the battle unfold.

The adults all rush at Ray, seeing as he is the most dangerous but Ray smiles before in an instant, everyone was frozen. "I love my quirk." Ray exclaims before walking forward. "All of you, leave." he says and everyone in the field begins to walk away. He finds a chair nearby and grabs it before sitting down and calls out to the Christopher clone. "I win, so its over right?" Ray asks but Christopher said nothing and instead just shook his head and points to an empty corner of the field. This confuses Ray but it becomes more clear when suddenly everyone else appeared in front of him, uneffected by his quirk and were in a battle while he was tied up to a chair, unable to move. The side effect of his quirk had been activated. "H-How?!" Ray thinks to himself as the battle rages on. Lemillion phases through the ground and both Haruki and Kuroshi are dueling against one another, trying to defeat the other. Kuroshi dissipates into darkness and falls inside her shadow while Haruki created a sphere of light below to remove her shadow and it forces Kuroshi out and she quickly encases him in light. He uses his quirk and makes dark pillars which holds the light encasing in place, in case she decides to shrink it and by using his darkness, forced a hole into the light trap and quickly escaped. He stands above it, looking down at his wife with a sinister smile which she doesn't flinch from. He raises his hand to the height of his shoulder before looking at his wife. "Let's finish this."

[Arise]

He snaps his fingers and an army of dark soldiers appear behind him and Lemillion appears before kicking him to the ground and Haruki takes the opportunity to send a barrage of light pillars which knocks Lemillion to the ground and he quickly phases into the ground again. Kuroshi stands back up before turning to his wife and points at her. "Attack!" he yells as his soldiers all rushes towards her when she snaps her fingers and lights spikes burst through the ground, stabbing every soldier on the field and she walks upto her husband who is frozen in shock at his soldiers defeat. She leans close to his face before smiling and flicking her finger, making him fall to the ground. "I hope you didn't forget who here is stronger, Kuroshi?" She says as she prepares a light fist and knocks Kuroshi unconscious when suddenly a hand grabs her by the neck and slams her on the ground. She turns around only to see Lemillion for a brief moment before he kicked her away. "You're right. I hope you didn't forget who here is stronger, Haruki." he replies before she sends a light spike at him but it phases through him and he grabs her and begins to choke her, with every attempt to counterattack and free herself all just phased through him and she falls unconscious. "I win."

"The winner is, Seo." Christopher announces which surprises Lemillion who then realizes that Seo has been missing throughout this fight. He looks around and Ray suddenly appears, sitting on a chair and frozen like a statue and Seo appears next to him, placing his arm on Ray's head. "When did you?!"

"The moment the fight begun I placed everyone under my illusion. I let you guys battle it out in the illusion while I relaxed and did nothing but I did have to manage Ray as his quirk is very dangerous." Seo explains and Christopher just smiles. "You all have been under the illusion for the past 5 minutes. I hoped one of you would realize it and break out but none of you did so this victory goes to Seo." Christopher says and everyone begins to wake up from their dream. "Are you kidding me?!" Lemillion exclaims but Christopher calms him down. "This wasn't just a push for a win. It was training, remember that Lemillion." Lemillion looks away in anger and Christopher gathers everyone. "Let's go check on the kids."

Horiko snaps his fingers again and again, sending shockwaves throughout the field and making it difficult for Eri to reach him. "You're so annoying!" Eri shouts as Horiko indulges in her anger. "This is actually fun. I might use this more often." he says as she dashes towards him and he snaps his fingers again, sending the shockwave throughout the field and pushes her back again. She feels irritated from Horiko's annoying grin and attack, as Horiko's confidence grows ever more larger but this gives her an idea.

She gets back up and activates One For All before disappearing from his vision. He looks around, trying to find her but it was like she had vanished when he suddenly feels a sharp pain in his back before being slammed onto the ground causing him to deactivate One For All. He quickly turns around but to his surprise, no one was there. He stands back up when he was suddenly thrown back onto the ground. He looks up again and Eri appears for a brief moment before kicking him into the wall. "You can't keep up with me!" she exclaims as Christopher examines the little girl. "50%, Incredible! She has far greater control over One For All than I expected!" Christopher thinks to himself. Horiko tries to figure out a way to stop Eri but he can't even see her hitting him. He tries to activate One For All but she quickly throws him into the air and jumps up before kicking him to the ground causing a large crater in the ground.

Horiko tries to stand up but was severely injured from the barrage of attacks landed by Eri and could barely get on his knees. Eri suddenly appears ontop of the crater, looking down on the boy before pointing her finger at him. "How about I show you how to use that shockwave attack properly." Eri says before she pulls back her middle finger with her thumb. Horiko tries to reactivate One For All but he can't focus enough to spread the power evenly throughout his body. Thinking quickly, he remembers when he broke his arm by placing all his power into his arm. Eri flicks her finger which sends air bullets in his direction but Horiko manages to focus One For All in his fingers before snapping them, causing an even stronger shockwave to spread through the field, blowing both Eri and Kuro back while simultaneously destroying the building covering the field in an instant.

All the adults felt the shockwave and saw the destruction before rushing over to see what had happened. A large dust cloud blocked their view but as it began to settle they could see Horiko in a crater with his thumb and middle finger broken. Eri was nowhere in sight while Kuro was next to the second Christopher. Looking around, they see Eri floating to the ground and landed, seemingly unharmed from the shockwave. She looked at the boy, further irritated by what he did. Horiko feels immense pain in his fingers but fights through it before reactivating One For All. "I need to finish this or else i'm screwed." he says before dashing towards her but she disappears before reappearing behind him and kicking him back but he quickly regains his balance. "The girls shockingly fast." Seo says. The Christopher next to Kuro suddenly disappeared and reappeared next to the adults. "It seems that Eri can use upto 50% of One For All while Horiko can only use 20%." Christopher explains. "So he can't win?" Haruki asks. "Not exactly, he has a chance. That shockwave earlier was done by him but at the cost of physical damage to himself. If he wants to win he'll have to use One For All at its max power and finish it in one blow or else Eri will counter him and finish him off."

Horiko quickly dashes towards her again but she's too fast and disappears again. He manages to barely see the outline of her fist and jumps back but she suddenly appeared right in front of him and she comes in with her punch but unexpected to everyone, Horiko flicks his index finger on his other hand, breaking it and pushes Eri back but his index finger was broken in the process. "Interesting. Keep the power at 20% but fire it off at 100% when she's vulnerable to a counterattack. It seems he's getting more strategic." Christopher thinks to himself as the battle rages on. Horiko flinched from the pain he feels, giving an opening to Eri for another attack when she tried to take it a wall of spikes appeared and she stopped before hitting the wall, she quickly maneuvers around it but then a sudden spike appeared beneath the ground and stabbed her foot and she screams in pain. Horiko uses the opportunity to encase her in light before adding multiple layers of light and darkness to ensure she doesn't escape, giving time for him to finally catch his breath.

She quickly breaks through it but Horiko traps her again and adds another layer and when she tried to break through them, spikes extended from the walls and stabbed her throughout her body. She screams in agony as she tries to break the spikes in her body. Horiko falls to the ground from exhaustion, he tries to rest and think of a plan while Eri is occupied in his trap but it was entirely shortlived when the trap was destroyed and a large shockwave nearly matching the one he created, blasts him back. Eri emerges but her arm was broken with many holes throughout her body, she stares at the boy with rage as her wounds begins to heal. "You've got to be kidding me." Horiko says before getting up and activating One For All. "Fine, I'll have to finish this in 1 attack." he says before Eri disappeared again but this time she was faster, so much faster than earlier. She punches Horiko, sending him flying out of the school and into the city. Destroying a few buildings in the process. Her punches were more heavy and more powerful than before. Christopher sees that every one of Eri's movements results in her bones to break but she keeps rewinding herself to fix them. "She's trying to end it by using One For All at 100%."

Her attack broke a few of Horiko's ribs and he struggles to breath but he was suddenly teleported back to the field and the life threatening damage to his body was fixed which confuses Horiko who turns to Christopher. "I'll fix any life threatening injuries, don't worry." Christopher reassures and Horiko gets back up. "I can't get hit by that again otherwise i'm dead." Horiko thinks to himself before Eri turns to him. "If I don't do it now, i'll never win!" Horiko says before dashing towards Eri and she dashes at him at 100% but this time he could see her. Her fist reaching towards him and he extends his fist towards her, focusing 100% of One For All into the punch. Their fists collide causing a shockwave even stronger than earlier, Christopher activates a barrier to make sure everyone wasn't blown away. Their attack ended in a stalemate and they were both blown back and Horiko's left arm was broken but before Eri moved another spike stabbed her foot but she quickly pulled her foot out of the spike and healed it but raising her head, to her surprise Horiko was right in front of her and she barely dodged his attack. She looked at him and sees his toes were broken and realized he used his toes at 100% to dash towards her.

He comes again and she dashes at him with 100% and Horiko uses his right arm at 100%. Their fists collide again and sending the same shockwave out but Horiko seemed to be getting pushed back as the pain on his body is excruciating and with his toes broken, he's unable to properly balance himself aswell. He was pushed back and they both were seperated once more. Horiko now lost both of his arms and Eri is rewinding her injuries. "Give up, you can't win against me." she says but Horiko gave no response, just breathing heavily as he gazes to the ground on his knees. "Shit, Shit, Shit! What am I going to do, I can't win like this?!" Horiko silently cries out in his mind, desperately trying to think of a solution when he hears a voice call out. "If you want to win, you'll have to fight her like you want to kill her!" a voice says as he turns around to see Lemillion. "Use what you have, don't be on your knees like your praying for god to help you. Move your ass or i'll kick it for you!"

Horiko forces himself to stand up but he is still unable to use his broken hands. "I can't use my arms, they're broken." Horiko says. "Then use your legs, if that breaks use your tongue, if that breaks use your quirk. It can make anything can't it? Find your solution you lazy crybaby. If you're still conscious then there's still a way." Lemillions words finally gives Horiko the idea he was looking for. He closes his eyes and takes a deep breath before his arms and legs were suddenly encased in dark gauntlets and boots. He opens his eyes and grows a smile. "Right!" he yells and to Eri's surprise, he can suddenly use his broken arms but its movements seemed robotic, meaning he wasn't actually able to use his arms but he is using his darkness to move his arms and steady his feet. She activates One For All at 100% again before dashing towards him and he dashes towards her their punches landed, both seemingly at another stalemate. They pushed each other back but Eri quickly dashes towards him again but he uses 100% on his toes to dodge her attack. "Use everything you have!" Lemillion shouts as Horiko dashes towards her. "Give it all you've got!" Horiko shouts in his head but Eri dodges when suddenly Horiko disappears and a crater 100 times the size of Eri's appeared on the ground and Horiko suddenly appears in front of Eri, his hair standing straight with lightning surrounding his entire body. "One For All, One Million Percent!!" Eri and Christopher feels the immense amount of power but Horiko is too fast for her to dodge or block. "SMASH!!" Horiko's fist reaches Eri's stomach and penetrates through it and Eri's body was split in half followed by the shockwave which spread throughout the school and around the nearby city.

As the dust settled, everyone sees Eri's body split in two and both of Horiko's legs and his right arm was destroyed, leaving no trace aside from the blood. "I....probably should've interfered." Christopher thinks to himself but everyone's attention was caught when Eri's body began reconnecting the severed parts and Eri stood up again, breathing heavily and stares in shock at Horiko. "What kind of power was that?! It was far stronger than when I used One For All at 100%. Can he use One For All at higher than 100%, but I thought 100% was the limit?!" Eri thinks in her head when Christopher places his hand on her shoulder. "Congratulations, you've won." Christopher says when she suddenly falls to the ground, unconscious. "What did you do to her?!" Seo asks. "I didn't do anything. She overused her quirk, this is the result of that." Christopher replies before turning to Horiko. He touches Horiko's shoulder and his body begins to heal and his destroyed limbs regenerate. "Take him off the field. We'll give them a few minutes to rest before we continue with Kurosu's fight."

"You still want to continue after that bloodbath, are you insane?!" Kuroshi says. "Calm down, I will heal any life threatening injuries sustained by them." Christopher replies before turning to Horiko. "This level of improvement was unexpected but with this, they might have a chance to save themselves. I hope I can prepare you all for what's to come in time."
