Deku: The Golden Saiyan Hero of Hope

Chapter 17: One Versus All

Chapter 17: One Versus All

I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want. I can do all this through him who gives me strength.

"Shoto Todoroki is out of bounds! Izuku Midoriya wins!" Midnight yelled out as she raised her whip up high after she recovered from her shock.

For a few moments, the entire stadium was dead quiet. Everybody was still trying to process just what the heck happened. And after their minds registered Midnight's words, they immediately started cheering at the top of their lungs.

"IZUKU MIDORIYA FROM CLASS 1-A, WINS FIRST PLACE IN THE SPORTS FESTIVAL!" Present Mic yelled out as fireworks were shot up and rainbow confetti fell down throughout the entire stadium.

"He did!" Ochaco yelled out as she jumped out of his seat.

"Amazing... I have never seen anything like it! Our Class President truly is something else!" Tokoyami said as he and everybody else got over their shock.

Katsuki scoffed, "He better have won. Or else, our fight would have been pointless." Even after saying that, if one looked hard enough, they would be able to see a small smile on Katsuki's face. He may act tough on the outside, but deep down, he was really happy for Izuku.

Aizawa sighed, "Man, that was something else. I honestly didn't know who would come out on top after that big clash. Good thing they turned out okay, though. Nice job, Midoriya. You worked hard, and those who work hard achieve great things. You earned it, kid."

After hearing the official announcement and seeing all of the confetti falls on his face, Izuku smiled in relief. "I did. I won."

He looked up in the teacher's box and locked eyes with Toshinori.

Izuku gave a thumbs up, "I told you, I would win!"

Toshinori couldn't help but smirk in pure Pride. His Successor had made a vow to win, and he kept his promise as a True Hero would. Izuku had surpassed all expectations and on won the big one. He had just told the world that he is here, and will become the greatest Hero possible. Toshinori wanted to transform to his Hero Form and jumped straight towards Izuku, hug him, tell him how proud he was and give him his medal right now, but of course, he restrained himself. It would be way too suspicious if All Might of all people just started congratulating Izuku right after he won. His congratulations would have to wait until they met in private.

After giving the thumbs up to Toshinori, Izuku's body started to get really heavy. He didn't notice it before due to the adrenaline rushing through him, but his body was exhausted due to him using Kaioken stacked on top of his One For All: Full Cowl. He was about to collapse onto the floor, but right before he hit the ground, a soft pair of arms caught him and stopped his fall.

"Don't worry, I got you. You're really tired, aren't you? I can imagine after seeing you go all out like that." Midnight said as she held Izuku.

Izuku smiled sheepishly, "Thanks, Midnight-Sensei. I really pushed my body to limit, didn't I? I actually wasn't supposed to that. Using Kaioken multiplies my power but in return, it saps away at my stamina and makes my body more vulnerable. It was too dangerous for me to use, which is why I saved it as my trump card. But, I had to use it in this fight. Todoroki was just so strong!"

Many females in the crowd were shaking in anger and jealousy. A lot of them thought that it wasn't fair that Midnight got to hold Deku like that. They wanted to feel his abs and pecs too! Seeing him shirtless like that made them drool over him like a hot piece of meat, Mt. Lady wanted to step on Midnight like a bug for getting all handsy with him.
