Chapter 33 - Heroes Menagerie Part 4 (2/2)
”Oh shut up with your monologue, I'm not here to hear you go on and on about how you're unstoppable, and blah blah blah. I don't care, the world is in danger, and I'm going to save it. Anyway, I'm not fighting the Top 10... I'm fighting you... and there is no way that you can control the Top 10 and have them fight at their full strength at the same time. Lets see what you got.” Naruto raised his fists up as he got ready for a fight. If this guy was controlling their movements, not their minds, then it stood to reason that the man wouldn't be able to make them fight at their full skill level. That took a conscious thought to do, and these people were smart and knew how to use their unique Quirks to their ultimate potential.
This man wouldn't be able to bring out that potential.
-With the Man-
”Damn him... damn him, damn him, damn him! That is the boy, if I kill him, then the flames in his Hoshi no Tama will die out! Damnit! He's here, ruining my plans... He's freeing my collection, and he didn't even let me finish my monologue!” The Man shouted as he slammed his fists into his throne. He was controlling each and every one of the Top 10, and even now he was making them all fight Naruto. Yet, somehow Naruto was able to hold his own against them, and had even powered down so that he was fighting without his Quirk.
He was being mocked!
This child was mocking him, telling him that he couldn't make the Top 10 fight at their full strength! How dare this boy make fun of him like this, and insult the Top 10 while he was at it!
-With Naruto-
”That's 6 down-” Naruto said as he dodged a punch and kicked one of the Top 10 in the back of the head, shattering the tick. Out of the control of the villain, the top hero collapsed to the ground, knocked out. If he was facing the actual Top 10, and they were in control of their own bodies, then the fight would be going very differently. As it stood though, right now he was fighting mere imitations of what they should be. Hollow shells of them, controlled by a crazed villain. That said, with his uncle's speed and strength, and Ryuko in her dragon form, and Endeavor's flames, it would still be hard to take them down, simply because shattering the ticks on their heads would be a feat to do.
Then there was Mirko, one of the fastest of the Top 10, and perhaps the 3rd physically strongest after Ryukyu and All Might, and she was just hard to hit enough as it was.
Robots with guns also started to come into the room and surround Naruto. They were careful to not shoot the pro heroes as they fired, and Naruto had to transform again to gain strong enough muscles to ignore the bullets for the most part.
Naruto was kicked right in the stomach by both of Mirko's powerful legs when he was busy dodging All Might's punch, and Endeavor's flames. Naruto hit the wall, and landed on his back on the ground, coughing up blood. He felt the heat of strong flames lick his skin as Endeavor put his foot on Naruto's ċhėst, and Naruto looked up at him. He summoned forth flames, and prepared to burn Naruto to a near-death state.
”-This is what you get for mock-”
”I've always wanted to do this-” Naruto stated as he pulled his fist back, and he slammed it as hard as he could right between Endeavor's legs. Nailing him with a powerful punch, right to that nads. Naruto's punch was strong enough to lift the man off of his feet, into the air, and Naruto used his tails to wrap around Endeavor's legs, before slamming him into the ground. Shattering the tick on the head of his head. ”-and it makes me-”
-With Todoroki-
”How are you smiling right now!?”
Everyone in Class 1-A was extremely busy, catching all of the hero pods that were falling out of the sky, and placing them down safely on the beach.
Todoroki didn't know why he was smiling, but something very enjoyable just happened.
-With Naruto-
”Seriously, I enjoyed that way to much... Fuck you Endeavor... come on, it's still 3 on 1... lets see how your Top 10 wannabes can hold up against me.” Naruto stated, and he noticed that the longer he fought, the better the villain was getting at controlling the heroes. Not to mention since he was controlling less heroes, it was easier for him to maintain a firm control over these heroes. 'Their movements are getting sharper... this is getting a little bad... also... Mirko broke my ribs for sure... thankfully, I feel very little pain right now.' Naruto really was going to thank Izuku for bringing him that pain medicine. It was helping him keep his mind free of pain, which was very good for him right now.
*Boom*
All Might tried to rush out of the room when an explosion was heard, and Naruto ran in front of him and kicked him across the face, sending him flying into the wall as well.
”You're not stopping my friends. Just like I can't leave this room, I'm not letting any of you leave the room.” Naruto transformed to his 3-Tail form and rushed at Ryuko, tackling her against the wall. Mirko rushed him and slammed her legs into him, and he grabbed her with his hand. Naruto snapped his teeth around Ryuko's neck, and the two of them began to grapple. ”Come on, hero basics, grappling the villain!” Naruto repeated with her flesh between his teeth, her scales protecting her from major damage. Naruto slammed the back of her head into the wall, and he did it over and over until she stopped trying to grapple him.
He jumped and slammed her head into the ceiling when All Might rushed him, and he bȧrėly avoided getting a powerful punch, just as Ryuko transformed back into her human form, knocked out cold with the tick broken.
Naruto slammed Mirko into the ground head first, she was super tough, and he shattered the tick on her head. Naruto transformed to a smaller size, and placed the women down gently, before he turned to look at his uncle.
”I'll just swarm you with every hero I have then!”
More heroes started to get released from their Hero Pods, and Naruto saw dozens of heroes with their Quirks active coming at him. Naruto raised his fists up, and prepared for the fight of his life against dozens of Quirks.
-With Tsuyu-
*Boom*
”Got the crystal.” Tsuyu said as she picked up the crystal, after Kyoka and Tokoyama destroyed the machine that it was inside of. She didn't know why she was picking it up, but if the villain was using them for something, then it clearly wasn't anything good. The Hero Pod in the room opened up, and they were soon face to face with Mt. Lady as the woman started to run towards them. Tsuyu jumped up high into the air, and as Mt. Lady used her Quirk, Tsuyu landed on her head. Her tongue stretched out, and she grabbed Kyoka and brought the girl up to their level.
Kyoka's earphone jacks stretched out and entered Mt. Lady's ears, before blood came out of them when she took the heartbeat amp at point black range. Tokoyama used this as his chance to break the tick on the back of her head, by stretching Dark Shadow up and shattering it.
”Thank god the guy controlling them seems to be distracted by something... Ochaco, Momo... Iida?” Kyoka asked when she and Tsuyu landed on the ground, seeing Tenya with the other girls running into the room.
They had a few crystals in their hands.
”The Hero Pods opened, and the heroes are going to where Naruto is. We're going to join you in this!”
-In the Basement-
*Cough Cough*
An extremely elderly man, laying in a machine with tubes running in and out of his body, coughed up blood. Most of his body was covered up by machines, including the top half of his head. His body was sickly and pale, and he had almost no muscle. He was practically, or literally, skin and bones. The machines connected to him had their tubes running up into the walls around him, 15 tubes connected to the walls, and several of them were no longer functioning.
-With the Man-
”Those brats... uuuh... they're ruining it all...” The Man spoke as he felt an amazing amount of pain run through his mind. ”This isn't how this is suppose to go, they're just children! I can't be defeated by mere children!” The man shouted as he took off his cloak and revealed his face.
He had long, slicked back black hair, and sharp yellow eyes with slit pupils. He wore a black suit like his minion robots, but his had golden lining to it. Several parts of his body were clearly mechanical, including his hands and his neck. He stormed off of his throne, and prepared to go deal with it himself if he had to. He was going to have to put an end to all of these children with this body. He stopped and growled in anger when he sat back down on his throne, hating what he had to do, but if he left his throne then it would become far too hard to control so many heroes at the same time. The back of his neck reconnected with his throne, and he frowned when he realized that the majority of the heroes had been defeated.
-With Naruto-
”Hah... hah... hah... fuċk this is hard...” Naruto stood on the body of the latest defeated hero, with the only hero still fighting him being All Might himself. Naruto's body was bloody and bruised, with his broken arm snapped in the wrong direction once more. Even on pain medication, Naruto was in a metric ton of pain. Naruto took a coin out of his pocket, and he palmed it in his hand. Naruto ran at All Might, and jumped over a punch, before he threw the coin into the doorway. Opening up a portal, right into the U.A. Workshop, all of the heroes in the room were blasted into the portal one after another, thanks to the shockwave from All Might's punch. Naruto slammed his hands into the back of All Might's head as his eyes widened upon seeing all of the heroes pushing through the portal.
All Might passed out when the tick on his head was crushed, and Naruto grabbed him, before he threw him into the portal by the cape as well.
No doubt, Mei was super pissed off right now, considering Naruto just dumped dozens and dozens of pro heroes right into the workshop. Oh well, the heroes were off of the fortress, which was good enough. Naruto was going to have to trust his friends were saving the other heroes on the fortress, meaning this was his chance to go and retrieve his Hoshi no Tama.
Naruto took a shaky step, and looked down at his legs.
Both of them were broken... Recovery Girl was going to love healing him again, when she learned that he had destroyed his body.
*BOOM*
”Child, you're become a tho-”
”Save the monologue, I don't want to hear it. Seriously, talk, talk, talk... is that all you villains do when you're pushed into a corner. Oh great, another robot... at least this one looks different... so what should I call this robot... Minion 1... Minion 2?” Naruto asked as he raised his fists up. A throne started to descend from the ceiling, and a man sitting on it looked down at Naruto with disdain. Clearly, he hated Naruto at this point, for taking most of his collection from him. That much was obvious, and the man's throne landed in the room with a loud thud.
The man stood out of his throne.
”I'm not going to kill you, but you're going to-”
”Monologue!” Naruto grinned when the man looked furious at being interrupted again. He wasn't going to let this villain enjoy this, not even a little.
”You're in no position to smile brat! I captured all of the best pro heroes! What are you!? A child! I can crush you!”
”... Yeah, and how many years of planning did it take to capture these pros? Yeah, I'm a kid, but I'm a kid you never planned on. You don't know how I work, you don't know how I fight... you don't have a plan on capturing or fighting me. Just because I'm a student, I bet you didn't bother researching any of my classmates either. Well, your arrogance is going to cost you... my friends are destroying your machines as we speak.” Naruto spoke as transformed. Naruto tapped the side of his head as well, the man seemed angrier for some reason. ”Also... can't control me, can you... should I turn around.” Naruto turned around and showed the back of his head to the man.
Nothing.
”How?” The Man asked, and Naruto grinned.
”My classmates are pretty damn smart, we figured out your Quirk. Now, whats the name of the villain I'm going to beat up?” Naruto asked again as he returned to a fighting position. '... This robot is more than likely a lot stronger than the rest of them... I better be careful... I'm too injured to take this lightly.' Naruto thought as he observed the man in front of him.
Just because he was making himself sound ċȯċky, didn't mean he was going to underestimate this man for even a second.
”Orochimaru.”
