The fated duel between Izuku and shoto has finally arrived. 

Present mic: FIIIIIIIIGHTTT!!!

Shoto sends an ice wall to Izuku but he instantly breaks it.

Izuku: hey shoto, before we fight, I want you to choose a stone for me to use. I wanna challenge myself.

Shoto thinks for a minute.

Shoto: the purple one!

............

Izuku: good choice

Izuku quickly sends a gigantic wave of purple fire towards Todoroki and somehow survives

Agitated, Shoto rushes Izuku, but much slower than before. Katsuki notices Shoto's drop in mobility and assumes that it's because Shoto's stamina is running low after wasting so much of it fighting sero.

Shoto closes in on Izuku, but as soon as he lifts his right foot to attack, Izuku strikes Shoto in the torso, sending him flying away. Shoto recovers and tries to use another ice attack, but it's much slower than the previous ones and Izuku is able to avoid it. 

Izuku: shoto!! You're not gonna win without using your full power!!
Your trembling body can only take so much cold because Quirk's are physical abilities.
You can offset your temperature by using your fire. but for some reason, you're refusing to do it! I want you to put more effort into the battle, everyone else is giving it their all while you are only using half your power!!

I know what he did to you!!!

Shoto is reminded of his childhood. He remembers that as a child he was constantly separated from his siblings, and when his mother finally went mad from all the domestic abuse and burned his face.

Endeavor had her put into a psychiatric ward, but Shoto blames him for his mother's breakdown. Still haunted, Shoto states once again that he will reject his father, but this time Izuku adds that Shoto's Quirk is his own, and not his father's. This invokes one last memory, one that Shoto had long forgotten. He and his mother were sitting down watching a special on TV about All Might.

All Might encourages all children to use their Quirk's in their own way in spite of inheriting them from their parents. Shoto's mother adds that Shoto must remember to stay true to himself, that he is not a prisoner of his lineage, and that it's okay to use his power to become who he wants to be. 

Izuku: it's your power!! Not his!!

Impassioned, Shoto decides to trigger his fire and astounds the entire arena with his display of blazing power. All Might recognizes that Izuku had been trying to provoke Shoto to this point in order to save him from rejecting not only half his power but half of himself.
As the flames die down and the ice melts from Shoto's body, he says that now Izuku is the one screwing around for helping his opponent. Shoto adds that just like Izuku, he desires to become a hero one day too. Having freed Shoto from his self-repression, Izuku smiles and comments that Shoto's power is amazing to which he responds with an affecting smile of his own. 

Ecstatic, Endeavor shouts proudly about Shoto finally using his fire. He walks down closer to the match and claims that Shoto will surpass him and live up to the reason for his birth. With the battle reaching its climax, Shoto asks why Izuku is grinning in such a hopeless situation with shoto's injuries and pleads for shoto not to blame him for what happens next. 

They both power up in preparation for one final clash. Cementoss and Midnight decide to step in, fearing one of them might die. Shoto sends a large wave of ice at Izuku, but the latter jumps above it by using the power stone. As he flies towards Shoto, he prepares a full power smash, and Shoto counterattacks with a powerful fire blast, thanking his opponent as he does so. Even though Cementoss builds a wall between them, Izuku's wind pressure and Shoto's fire create an explosion that destroys the entire fighting ring. 

Everyone watches in pure disbelief, and after he recovers, Cementoss commends both of them for their talent. present mic asks what caused the explosion, to which Shota replies that it was caused by the rapidly changed temperature in the arena.

The smoke clears, and Todoroki is revealed to be unconscious outside the ring. Everyone is taken back by noticing that Izuku, on the other side, is unscathed by the events.

Midnight: oh my god.......Izuku Midoryia is the winner!!

No one was cheering. Everyone was scared. Scared of Izuku. Izuku kind of liked it, but not too much.

In the aftermath of Izuku and shoto's showdown, katsuki finds himself annoyed as he overhears fans discussing the battle. Shoto exits the arena and encounters his father in the corridor. 
Endeavour scolds Shoto for losing the battle, even if shoto was using his fire powers. Shoto ignores him and he hasn't rescinded his disavowal of his father. He says the only reason he used his left side is because he forgot about Endeavor completely during that moment. As he walks away, Shoto says he remains unsure about his fire power and suggests he may not need Endeavor at all.
