Hero Hunter: Izuku Yagi [opm x mha]

Chapter 33: Monster Association Arc

Izuku stands before Eri and kota, forming a fist as Bug God and Royal Ripper approach.

Royal Ripper: "Our dear Gyoro-Gyoro asked us to keep an eye on you, Izuku-kun... to check whether youhave what it takes to be one of us."

Izuku: "........" He looked unamused as he was taking off the badges on his hands.

Royal Ripper: "The so called hero hunter... Are you just a degenerate... A human who gets off on the idea of being a monster? Or are you a real monster?" He taunted.

Izuku: "Heh... Look who's talking. I'm the one disappointed with all of you half-baked monsters." He scoffed.

Royal Ripper: "Oh, is that so? Then kill those kids."

Izuku: "Huh? What for?" He asked as Eri and Kota stood in fear.

Bug God: "We monsters are those who went beyond Human values. We tore ourselves off from humankind. Izuku, We've seen how you protect those brats. That won't do. It won't do st all. Kill them or else..." He said, pointing his fingers at the kids. "If you want to join the monster association, you must earn our trust! Show the work! Are you still clinging to your humanity?"

Royal Ripper: "We have no need for half hearted dabblers. Our association is about smash all human countries and rule the world. We're going to kill millions of kids like that." He said, pointing at Kota and Eri. "And what's more, You've just lost some sort of dicey excuse for a hero... I suppose you weren't paying attention... but how does that face the battleground?" He asked.

Izuku, still staying infront of Eri and Kota, stayed on high alert.

Izuku: "Stop making me repeat myself, brats. Get lost." He demanded.

Eri: "M... M-my legs are shaking... I can't get up... uuuuurgh... I can't get uuup...!!"

Kota: "T-T-Those... are r...real monsters... I can't... m-move."

The kids said in fear as they struggled to move.

Izuku: "YA STUPID MORONS!!!" He shouted in anger. "Do ya figure someone will take pity and come take your hand?! no one's ever gonna help you!!! Stop dreaming with this crap!! The only one who can help ya is yourselves!!!" He shouted as he leaned in closer towards their height. "When this kind of thing happens, ya gotta become stronger!!"

Izuku explained as both kota and eri had flashbacks of him giving them life advices.

Izuku: "STAND UP... ERI!!! AND KOTA START RUNNING!!!" He shouted.

At that moment, Royal Ripper attacks Eri, using his left blade to stab her, but Izuku intervenes, lifting Royal Ripper by his blades and delivering a powerful kick to his abdomen. Royal Ripper is propelled into the air but quickly recovers, using his blades to anchor himself and perform a somersault, albeit injuring his arms in the process. He manages to restore his limbs.

Royal Ripper: "Wow..."

Izuku: "RUN!!!" He shouted as both Eri and Kota began sprinting.

Royal Ripper: "Oh, well... That's it, then. You've turned against us." He said as he raised his blades.

Bug God: "You call yourself the Hero hunter but you never killed a single one... you turned out to be soft as I thought!" He scoffed as he raised his fists.

Izuku: "Goddammit, I just hate assholes like y'all." He said before he formed the water stream rock smashing fist stance. Both Royal Ripper and Bug God began charging towards him.

Meanwhile

After leaving her dad's house, Izumi was at her dormitory, preparing her hero costume.
