"Now, before you start. This match will have a special change in rules." Nezu told them, looking at team C. "For this match, you are able to attack the children, but you are not allowed to harm them."

The entire class looked at the principal in confusion.

"Am I stupid, or isn't that the same thing?" Kaminari asked.

"You are stupid but yeah it does sound like the same thing," Jiro said.

"I'm afraid I don't understand sir!? What do you mean by this!?" Iida asked his principal politely.

"That you will have to figure out on your own," Nezu said with a small sadistic laugh.

Welp...we're fucked. Shinso thought.

Izuku looked at Uraraka, who was deep in thought. I wonder if she figured it out?

A bit later in the fake city.

Team C had been walking through the city for a few minutes, and still had yet to see the child.

Which was weird considering that from what they'd seen these kids weren't exactly hard to find.

But despite this, Jiro looked extremely nervous.

"Jiro, what's wrong?" Shoji asked her using one of his arm's mouths.

"I can't hear them," Jiro revealed.

"You can't hear what?" Shinso asked her.

"Those monsters. Shouldn't there be a ton of them around us or at least a few miles away...but I don't hear anything. It's completely silent." Jiro said, thoroughly unnerved.

"Maybe they are waiting for the child?" Shoji theorized, before looking at Uraraka. "Uraraka, do you know who the child we're facing might be."

Everyone looked at Uraraka, and the ninth wielder paused as she considered what she was about to say. "Well...I think I might know, but I'm not sure."

"It's better than nothing," Shinso told her. "At least we might have an idea what we're going up against."

"...When the principal said that we can't harm them but we can attack them, maybe he meant that even if we attack them, harming them won't be that easy." Ochaco speculated. "Two of the kids had quirks that made them almost impossible to hurt them. Fu and Sansan."

"What do you mean, impossible to hurt them!?" Jiro asked, her eyes widened with alarm at the thought of facing an invisible enemy.

"Not impossible, just really, really hard." Said a voice behind them.

The three of them immediately turned around and saw Fu standing there, with his typical blank expression.

"Fu! It is you!" Ochaco said with a bright expression on her face and relief filling her voice.

"Hi, Uraraka. It's nice to see you." Fu greeted in his usual monotone. "It's been a while."

Back in the observation room.

"Wait a minute I know him!" Mina shouted out, pointing at Fu on the screen.

"Y-you do?" Izuku asked, looking at the pinkette in confusion.

"Yeah, I saw him in Kiba's videos!" Toru exclaimed excitedly. "Wait a minute! Are you Kiba's dad!? Is someone gonna fight Kiba!?"

"Well, uh...yes, and um, and kind of. She is here and she will be part of the exercise but you can't really "fight" her because...well you can't attack her." Izuku explained nervously.

"That's amazing!" Mina and Toru had stars in their eyes, excited at the prospect of meeting their favorite online celebrity.

"Wait, if you watch Kiba's videos then why didn't you recognize any of the other kids? They're in her video's too." Izuku asked.
