Action: He stood tall
Speech: "I did it."
Thoughts: *Blah blah*

The dust had settled, and only one contestant was standing. Portgas D. (Y/N). Standing in the arena, head pointed at the ground as his arms stay outstretched. The fire along his arms crackling and popping as he reminisces of their past battles...

(Y/N): *Was this our last fight? The end of our rivalry? Well... if it is, I'm glad I came out on top... in also possibly the most awesome way.*

Raising his head, (Y/N) glances over his shoulder to see aokiji laid flat on the ground, facing the sky. His waist down to his feet were frozen in blue ice, immobilising him. It's almost similar to how (Y/N) melts with overusage of his quirk.

Midnight: "AOKIJI IS IMMOBILISED THEREFORE (Y/N) IS OUR WINNER!!!"

The crowd roars out, including present mic, but it fell onto the deaf ears of (Y/N). Now, he turns to gaze at his immobilised rival before him.

It was almost poetic. 100 battles, all of them gave each other time to learn and experience for future battles, techniques learned, and used on each other until they were perfected. There was so much hatred, and the challenge of being better than one another was the main reason this happened.

(Y/N): *What's this feeling?* He glanced down at his palm. The flames along his arms and shoulders have faded away. *Do I feel... guilty?*

Glancing back at aokiji, you squat down next to him, not saying anything until you put your hand on his knee. Using your heat from the fire you produce to melt the ice away.

Aokiji, in a raspy and exhausted voice: "What... do you think you're doing?"

The steam of melting the ice rises into the air as you maintain a neutral face for a few seconds before smiling up at aokiji.

(Y/N): "It's simple... I don't have a reason to despise you any longer if. I've already beaten you."

Aokiji's eyes widen slightly at this, the same reminiscing moment that just happened to (Y/N) now happening to him. Making him silent for a moment before sighing.

Aokiji: "Very well. I suppose I can say the same now, huh?" He lays his head back, gazing up at the sky in thought before (Y/N) chuckles.

The award ceremony commenced. Three platforms with the lower platform having "3" the second highest having "2" and the highest having "1" on the front.

Todoroki stood on the third podium. He did offer bakugo, but he said. "I'd rather die." aokiji on the second, and with a proud stance and smile (Y/N) on the tallest.

All might soon makes his over the top entrance, giving the contestant their medals and words of advice.

All might, with his usual big grin and bright demeanour: "Well done young (Y/N)! You have certainly pushed yourself to new levels. Levels that are very impressive for just being a first year!!"

(Y/N) smiles, gently tracing your fingertips over your gold medal before looking up at all might: "Thank you, all might, but I didn't do it entirely alone. If it wasn't for the years sparring with aokiji and..." You contemplate telling him about your father before shaking your head and deciding not to.

After a small speech from aizawa, when you all returned to your class, everyone was excused. Allowing them to leave and go home.

(Y/N) was walking down the hallway, arms crossed behind his head with a laid-back deamenor. You were somewhat zoned out, thinking on your now ended rivalry between you and aokiji.
