Of Earth and Fist(Male Reader x Mirko)

Strategy, Strategy, and More Strategy

Kamui Woods POV

"What do you wanna know?" Aizawa asks

"Well, what's his quirk" i ask as i sit in a folding chair behind them

"Terrakinesis" he responds, "He can manipulate any geological structure or material so long as he makes contact with it"

"Hmm" i say as i grab my chin, "What do you think of him?"

"He's a good student. He has a versatile quirk and he's learning how to be versatile with it quite well. He's less physically capable than most of the other students, but he's got a good head on his shoulders. I think he'll make a fine hero one day" Aizawa says, "I'd say he lacks quick thinking skills, and can be a bit of a hot head at times"

"That's high praise coming from you" i say

"Why do you ask?" Aizawa asks, "He catch your eye or something"

"Or something, yeah" I say, "You guys mind if I stay in here"

"Fine with me" Mic says

"I don't care" Aizawa says

"Great" i say

Y/N POV

I was worth 200 points, which wasn't 10 million, but it was enough to advance to the next round. My next step was to find a team to join, or make my own team

"The game itself will be 15 minutes. Individual point values will be added together to reach your team total. Everyone will know how much your worth based on your headbands. Swipe as many headbands as you can to raise your teams score. Stolen headbands must be worn from the neck up. So the more you steal, the harder itll be to manage them. And another thing-Even if your headband gets stolen or your team falls down, you can keep playing until times up" Midnight further explains

"This really is anyones game then" I say

"The rules make it so anyone can do well, and keep competing, even if their headband is taken" Kirishima says

"Now, you've got 15 minutes to build your teams" Midnight says

Everyone started scrambling around to make teams, begging many of the higher up people to be on their team. I knew exactly who I wanted to be teamed up with and so I beelined my way to him

"Hey Midoriya" i say as i walk up to him

He was already paired up with Ochaco so that was already 3 people on the team

"What's up Y/N" Midoriya says

"Let's team up together" i say

"Why would you want to team up with me" Midoriya asks, "You know that if we team up, well be the biggest targets here"

"Eh I don't fear a challenge" i say, "Plus, I trust your intuition and strategic thinking. I'll follow you into battle and be the wall to protect us and our headbands"

"Are you sure" He asks

"Damn sure" i smirk

"Ok then" Midoriya says, "We have 3 members currently. Ideally we get a full team of 4 but who else should we ask"

We ultimately decide to recruit Tokoyami because his quirk could act as offense and defense for our team. The time ended and all the teams were made

I noticed a lot of good teams but only 2 really stood out to me: Team Todoroki, consisting of Momo, Kaminari, and Iida, and Team Bakugo, consisting of Kirishima, Mina, and Sero

Our formation was going to have Tokoyami in front, Ochaco and on the sides, and Midoriya as our rider

"After 15 minutes to pick teammates and talk strategy, 12 cavalry teams are preparing to go head to head!" Mic announces, "Come on, everyone get your hands in the air! It's time for an arena thumping UA Battle Royale! Let me hear you scream!"
