As Shohei's fist hurtled towards Bakugo, time seemed to slow down. Bakugo's grin widened into a fierce smirk, his instincts kicking in. With lightning-fast reflexes, he deftly dodged the punch, narrowly avoiding the blow. Shohei's fist sliced through the air, missing its mark by mere inches.

"You missed, loser!" Bakugo taunted, his voice ringing out confidently.

Enraged by Bakugo's taunts, Shohei lunged forward, his movements fueled by frustration and anger. He aimed another punch at Bakugo, this time with more force behind it, determined to land a hit. Shohei's fist hurtled towards Bakugo. Bakugo's keen instincts kicked in, and he swiftly moved to evade the incoming punch. But Shohei anticipated Bakugo's dodge and adjusted his trajectory mid-swing, aiming to catch Bakugo off guard.

To Bakugo's surprise, Shohei's punch grazed his cheek, sending a jolt of pain through his body. It was a near miss, but it was enough to show that Shohei was not to be underestimated.

"You've got some moves," Bakugo grunted, wiping away a trickle of blood from his cheek. "But I'm just getting started."

Shohei smirked, a fierce determination burning in his eyes. "Bring it on, Bakugo. I'm not backing down."

The crowd gasped in anticipation, the tension in the air palpable as the two boys faced off. Each movement was calculated, each breath charged with energy as they circled each other, waiting for an opening to strike.

Suddenly, Bakugo saw his chance. Seizing the moment, he launched himself forward, his fist flying towards Shohei with blistering speed. Shohei barely had time to react as Bakugo's punch connected with his jaw, sending him staggering backward.

The impact reverberated through the pool area, echoing across as Shohei stumbled, his balance faltering. Bakugo stood his ground, a triumphant smirk playing on his lips as he watched his opponent struggle to regain his footing.

With renewed resolve, the two clashed once again, trading blows with equal ferocity. Each punch was met with a counter, each dodge countered with a feint. It was a battle of strength, skill, and sheer determination, with neither willing to give an inch.

Their movements were a blur of motion, their grunts and shouts echoing through the pool area as they fought tooth and nail. Bakugo's explosive power clashed with Shohei's calculated precision, creating a mesmerizing display of combat prowess.

As the fight raged on, it became clear to everyone watching that Bakugo and Shohei were evenly matched. Neither could gain the upper hand for long, their strengths and weaknesses perfectly balanced against each other.

"I-I think we should go get a teacher," whispered one student nervously, eyeing the escalating conflict.

"Yeah, this is getting out of hand. I don't want anyone to get hurt," another student agreed, their voice tinged with worry.

The two students then ran off to find a teacher

Some however remained rooted to the spot, unable to tear their eyes away from the unfolding brawl.

"I hope they stop soon. This is really scary," murmured another student, their expression reflecting their unease.

In the midst of the chaos, a few brave individuals made their way towards the nearest teacher, determined to intervene before things got any worse.

As Shohei's fist connected with Bakugo's abdomen, a sharp pain shot through Bakugo's body, momentarily stunning him. The force of the blow knocked the wind out of him, causing him to stagger backward. Shohei wasted no time following up his attack, moving in with lightning speed.

With a swift motion, Shohei grabbed Bakugo's head and began to bring his knee up towards Bakugo's face, aiming to deliver a devastating knee strike. Bakugo's instincts kicked in, and with a burst of adrenaline-fueled strength, he managed to block Shohei's knee strike with his forearm, narrowly avoiding a direct hit to his face.
