Chapter 20 - Brains and Brawn (2/2)

”Fine by me... Now, I'm going to get into character.” Naruto smiled back at her, before he transformed into his 2-Tail state and hopped back and forth. If he was going to play the role of a villain, then he was going to get into the role with all he had. Momo had almost literally sparkles in her eyes when she realized he was going to act like a villain, so he was going to have fun with this exam. Joining him, she created a black cape with her Quirk and pulled it over her shoulders.

-Observation Room-

”Communication is key between teammates, both hero and villain. While the last testers had no communication, it seems Team C and Team J are showing excellent teamwork. It's not perfect, but they are at a good starting point. Can anyone tell me where they can improve?” All Might asked the few students who were watching the cameras with him. A couple started to think on it, before Tsuyu raised her hand up quietly. ”Yes?” He asked her.

She waited a moment.

”He was too willing to let her make the decisions, and she isn't asking for his help?” Tsuyu wasn't sure.

All Might surprisingly shook his head.

”No, some people are superior to others in some ways. Momo is perhaps one of the most intelligent girls at this school, and Naruto's battle prowess are not to be mocked. By allowing her to become the brain, and he become the brawn, they are splitting up the roles according to their skills.” All Might started a lecture. This was a rather normal think that heroes overlooked, trying to become things they weren't. It was fine to improve areas they were lacking, but it was also good to rely on those who were superior to you in the areas who were lacking.

There was silence.

”They aren't covering their own weaknesses. They're only playing to their strengths.” Tenya commented hopefully, and he was given a smile and thumbs up from the teacher.

-With Naruto and Momo-

The door burst open.

”Sero, quickly, the bomb!” Kirishima shouted as the two of them rushed into the room, his body being used to break down the door. Sero jumped in after him, and shot tape from both of his elbows towards the bomb. He grinned under his helmet when it looked like nothing was going to get in the way of their victory, before the tape hit something in front of the bomb.

A think glass barrier.

Momo spoke up.

”... Damn...” Kirishima grinned when he looked at the sight before him.

Momo was sitting on the ground, a black cape on her shoulders as she sat against Naruto's side as he layed on the ground next to her. She had a dark, but adorable, smile on her face as she looked at them from behind the glass wall.

”Myahahaha... MYAHAHAHA! Good luck heroes, but I predicted you would take this course of action. Now that your surprise attack has failed you, go, my loyal minion, go and turn these heroes into...” Momo placed both of her hands against her head as she tried to think of something threatening. She puffed up her cheeks when she couldn't think of anything, so Naruto stood up behind her and walked shattered the glass barrier.

”HERO... H is for Hearse, which you will be needing. E is for Eradicate, which I'm going to do to you-” Naruto pointed at Sero, who gulped when Naruto took a few steps towards him. ”R is for Red, the stains I'm going to leave of you... Finally, O is for Off... because I'm about to off both of you... hero.” Naruto spoke a soft, threatening poem towards the two men.

Momo created a cannon out of her stomach, and she fired a cannonball at the tape. Sero's tape caught the ball, and both the tape and Sero went flying as they were attached to the ball, and pulled along with it. Sero slammed into the wall, his body landing right next to the cannonball. He ġrȯȧnėd in some slight pain as Kirishima ran at Naruto to fight him.

”I've never fought you in this-” Kirishima was going to comment on having never fought Naruto in this form, before Naruto grabbed him by the face, and shoved him through the ceiling. Naruto then grabbed his ankle, yanked him out of the ceiling, before he slammed him into the floor. Without letting go of his ankle, Naruto slammed him all around the room as he turned Kirishima into a human stress toy. ”-HELP! Sero, I need a hand man!” Kirishima wasn't going to win this fight.

Sero got out of the wall and nodded his head.

”I got-”

”That cannonball is actually hollow, and I filled it with a special material... and with the press of this buŧŧon-” Momo pressed the buŧŧon, and there was a small explosion that consumed Sero, launching him across the room and into the other wall. Sero saw that there were a ton of tiny bombs on the wall he landed on, and he watched as Momo pulled out another buŧŧon from her cape.

She smiled.

He gulped.

*BOOM*

-Seconds Later-

In retrospect, it might have been unfair to put the smartest student with the most flexible Quirk, with the strongest student with an extremely powerful Quirk. In the future, All Might would have to make note that Naruto and Momo were not allowed to team up against students who weren't also in the Top 5 in the class. Kirishima and Sero really didn't stand a chance, but they had tried, and heroes that tried in the face of impossible odds were amazing in their own right.

Well, he would try and makes things a little more fair next time.
