Project New Dawn

Chapter 14 - Off-campus Training (Edited)

"Alright. Now can we leave?" Izuku asks as the 4 repack their bags.

"Yup." Aizawa answers as the 4 repack their bags, with Izuku handing over the bottles to Aizawa, leaving for their home.

"Eraser, Vlad, follow them home." Nezu says once the quartet was out of the school.

"Are you sure sir?" Vlad asks.

"Yes." Nezu answers.

"I'd suggest against it." Mirio says as he struggles to get up, his hair slightly singed from the shock therapy courtesy of Denki. "It's a horrible move on 7 different levels."

"And why would you suggest against it?" Nezu asks.

"He'd catch Eraserhead and Vlad King as soon as they get within 100 feet of them, and this is with all the training that Eraserhead has had and his experiences as an Underground Hero. Uraraka's powers are what makes the team so dangerous, but that's just the beginning." Mirio explains. "Assuming that Izuku lets you get close to them, which in and of itself will be bad, Tokoyami will first grab and pin both of you down with his quirk, you'll then be shocked. Multiple times till your muscles twitch involuntarily for the rest of your life and then comes the interrogation, which all of them are extremely skilled at."

"If that's the case then maybe All Might should accompany them." Mic says. "And we can ask Endeavour to be on standby."

"Sir, please trust me when I say this. Those 4 can easily plough through an army of pros, I'm talking thousands if not more and come out with little to no injuries." Mirio says. "I've seen them go all out and it is not good news."

"Don't you think you're exaggerating a bit?" Midnight asks.

"Not really. I don't think Phaser is lying or even exaggerating." Miruko answers. "I felt it when I was fighting that electric kid. When he shocked me, he kept muttering to himself to keep the charge limited and not kill me. And that green-haired kid, after that kick to his head, I got the feeling that he had finally started taking me seriously, almost as if his fight before was a game. Think of the difference between playfighting that lion cubs do and actual hunting and even then my gut said he was holding back. And that brown-haired girl is completely unhinged."

"I wouldn't call her unhinged. It's more like..." Mic says trying to think of a word.

"She has a psychological issue that stems from her quirk and a few other things." Mirio answers. "And to Izuku it might as well have been a game, kind of like chess but with lives at stake. With his strength, he could easily rival All Might, the current version of you that is, when not holding back at all." Mirio explains.

"The punching force he exhibited in the entrance exam was about the same as a Detroit Smash and his reaction to the aftereffects of the punch implied that he might have overdone it." All Might says.

"But all that power comes at a very steep price to them."

"Is that where the medicines come into play?" Aizawa asks.

"No. The medicines are for the more minor side-effects," Mirio explains.

"I'm assuming that this side effect that they have is a private matter and is sensitive information?" Nezu asks, interrupting the boy.

"Yes sir." Mirio answers. "And that is as far as I know about them, the actual side effects of their quirk are unknown to me because I've never actually seen them go 'Plus Ultra' as we would say. But if you were to ask Izuku, he'd probably reveal it to you. Eventually."
