BNHA: Singularity

After tying up the two villains and stealing their earpieces, Izuku tried to see if he could listen in on the enemies' communications, but none of the pre-saved frequencies connected to any active lines.
"Looks like they're keeping an eye on us from somewhere," said Izuku, removing the earpiece as he added, "Or they have a way of pairing and removing earpieces from their private network. Either way, this is pretty much useless."
Tossing the earpiece to Melissa, just in case she had any ideas, Izuku wasn't too surprised when she said, "It's most likely the latter. The AI in charge of security is what blocks or, more accurately, actively intercepts radio and other communications frequencies. I can only use my phone to contact my father because I'm a tower resident, and he's a member of the Board of Directors."
"Oh, wow, your father sounds like a big shot, Athena," remarked Kirishima, unaware of Melissa's true identity.
"You're not wrong," replied Melissa, adopting a wry smile as she added, "My father is David Shield, one of I-Island's founders."
"Holy crab baskets...!" exclaimed Kirishima, striking a surprised pose and inadvertently hardening due to how shocked he was.
"Cool your jets, man," said Izuku. Then, as Toshinori had yet to escape his restrained status, he turned to Melissa, surprising her by asking, "What do you want to do, Athena? I doubt we can get there before All Might leaps into the fray and resolves things, but we can continue advancing if you're worried about your father."
Adopting a gratified smile, Melissa replied, "I'd like that. We don't know when Momo and the others will free Uncle Might and the other Heroes, so I'd like to keep going until the High Alert Mode deactivates. If my father is injured or knocked unconscious, I could be needed to operate the central security terminal."
Nodding in affirmation, Izuku stated, "Then we'll continue our ascent at your direction. Anyone here got a problem with that?"
"Of course not~!" replied Mina, flexing her right arm and cupping her bicep with a massive grin. Ochaco also pumped her fists, moving them up and down like a hyperactive skier as she appended, "Athena is our friend! If her father is in danger, we have to help him...!"
"Right on...!" shouted Kirishima.
"Nn..." responded Todoroki, nodding his head with his customary 'apathy,' eliciting a similar response from Tokoyami. With their agreement, the only person with apprehensions was Kyouka. However, it wasn't because she didn't want to help but because she doubted they could climb 130 flights of stairs before the others could free All Might. Her thighs were already in pain after climbing eighty flights, so the thought of climbing an additional 130 wasn't exactly pleasant...
Fortunately for Kyouka, Ochaco shared this sentiment, using her power on everyone who accepted it so they could float/glide up the stairs as if they were in zero gravity. With Melissa directing them to pass through several open-concept research facilities, allowing them to skip multiple floors at a time, their progress was extremely quick...
...
..
.
Around the time when the attack group had reached the 100th floor, the rescue team, led by Momo, reached the landing above the stage where Toshinori was bound. The fact there were no villains providing overwatch showed they had limited personnel and a very shallow understanding of the building's layout, but Momo had no objections. Instead, she turned to Tsuyu and Toru, asking, "Can the two of you sneak into the reception hall and position yourselves near two of the villains? All Might may be unable to incapacitate all seven of them before they can target the hostages, so we should try to reduce their numbers as much as possible."
With Tsuyu able to climb walls and possessing the ability to match her color and temperature against a surface, an Ultimate Move she had aptly named 'Camouflage,' she and Toru could sneak up on the enemy without being noticed. Ida and Ojiro could also blitz two of them, and if he called out to them before they shouted and started firing, Shinso could disable the rest in a single go. The only person who didn't have a convenient way to take out one of the villains was Shoji, but he could help by protecting the hostages and ensuring Shinso didn't eat a stray bullet. His body wasn't completely bulletproof, but the 5.56mm ammunition used by the gunmen wouldn't be able to penetrate deep enough to injure his vitals, especially with the bulletproof vest and riot helmet Momo had made for him...
Once everyone was in their positions, taking around ten minutes to set up, Momo used a weak laser pointer to draw Toshinori's attention. Seeing her confused the middle-aged Hero quite a bit, as he believed they had gone against his wishes to ascend the tower, but his bewilderment was quickly replaced by excitement when Momo signed to him what Melissa had told them, along with the fact they were in position to incapacitate five of the seven villains present.
Seeing the smile on Toshinori's face, Momo felt a sensation similar to relief wash over her. Whenever the former smiled, it was a sure sign that everything was going to be okay, so after signing that they would move on his signal, she pulled out a pair of electric batons and readied herself to enter the fray alongside Shoji and Shinso.
Wasting no time, All Might burst free from his bindings, shouting, "Your time has come, villains...!" before disappearing like a flickering image. A moment later, four of the seven villains were seen flying through the air, their bodies crashing heavily into the reception hall's walls and support columns as Ida, Ojiro, and Tsuyu took out the remaining three...
...
..
.
Receiving the frenzied status report from his subordinate, the man with the metal mask exclaimed, "What!? Are you kidding me...!?" with a hint of panic in his yellow eyes. They weren't even halfway finished cracking the security of the storage room, and there was no way they would be able to do so with All Might breathing down their necks.
With his subordinate confirming that All Might has broken free and taken control of the situation in the reception hall, the masked man pulled out his pistol, aiming it at David and Sam as he said, "There's been a change of plans. The two of you will be coming with me. You already created the Quirk Amplification Device once, so I'm sure you can do it again."
Furrowing his brows, David resolutely replied, "If that's your plan, then you might as well kill me. I would sooner die than manufacture such a powerful tool for villains."
Stepping in front of David, Sam raised his hands, beads of sweat dripping from his wrinkled forehead and chubby cheeks as he exclaimed, "W-Wait! This isn't what we agreed to! Leave the Professor out of this...!"
Blinking in surprise and confusion, David muttered, "Sam...?" as everything began to click within his mind.
Pulling out his handkerchief, Sam dabbed the sweat from his brow as he explained, "I'm sorry, Professor, but I couldn't just sit back and watch as my&ndash;as our research was taken away from us by those fools on the Board of Directors! How can they shamelessly assert themselves as the leaders of the scientific community when they fear progress...!?"
Staring at his old friend and colleague in disbelief, David asked, "Then all of this is your doing? I knew you were upset that our research had been taken away from us, but this isn't-"
Interrupting the duo's exchange, the masked man said, "We don't have time for this." before promptly shooting Sam in his right shoulder blade.
Slumping forward and falling to the ground, Sam clutched his bleeding shoulder as he cried, "What do you think you're doing!? I wasn't resisting, so why-"
*bang*
Silencing Sam's protests with a bullet to the back of the head, the masked man leveled his pistol at David, a no-nonsense look on his face as he said, "You are coming with us, Professor. Refuse, and our association will spare no effort hunting that daughter of yours down. And trust me, she won't be as fortunate as your friend here..."
"You bastard..." growled David. However, instead of giving in, he adopted a smile and added, "Go ahead and shoot. I already asked All Might to take Melissa to Japan, so you gun-toting cowards won't be able to lay so much as a single finger on her..."
Understanding the implication of David's words, the look on the masked man's face became especially ugly. Japan had nearly as many Heroes as the United States despite the latter being twenty-six times larger. Trying to infiltrate it from the outside was next to impossible, and if Melissa were moved to UA, they would need a literal army to breach its defenses...
Aiming his pistol at David's kneecaps, the masked man fired a bullet into each, his expression a hate-filled glower as he said, "Wipe that smug grin off of your face, you despicable piece of trash. Your actions today may as well have doomed all of humanity, so let's see-"
Before the masked man could finish his hateful diatribe, the doors to the central elevator abruptly burst open, followed by a bone-chillingly familiar voice shouting, "It's going to be okay, Dave! Why, you ask...!?"
Waving his hand, Toshinori cleared away the debris from the destroyed elevator in an instant, his expression dark despite the smile on his face as he added, "Because I. AM. HERE!"
"Oh, fu-"
Interrupting both the masked man's words and his attempts to pull the trigger of his pistol, Toshinori flashed over to him in an instant, shouting, "DETROIT...SMASH!"&nbsp;
Punching the masked man's face hard enough to leave an imprint in his metal mask, Toshinori sent him crashing into the barrier-protected walls of the room, the whites of his eyes showing as he slumped down to the floor.
Snorting in contempt, Toshinori elected to ignore the man in favor of helping his friend, bending down and rolling David onto his back before whispering, "Forgive me, Dave...if I had trusted my instincts and taken action sooner, all of this could have been prevented..."
Shaking his head, David forced a smile and said, "It's better this way...if Sam had lived, his reputation would have been ruined, and he would have spent the rest of his life in a prison cell..."
Though he had no clue what David was talking about, Toshinori offered a curt nod before picking him up in a princess carry, making sure to keep his legs above his heart. The masked man had been knocked senseless, but they needed to regain control of the central security terminal to conclude the event...
Just as Toshinori turned around to carry David to the control room, his Crisis Awareness kicked into overdrive as a familiar voice remarked, "So, it's true. Not only are you not weakened, but you managed to recover the power you had at your peak. Perhaps you'd like to share your methods...?"
Shaking with such fury that the ground beneath him started to tremble, tiny flakes of metal and dust rising around him, Toshinori turned around to find a tall, well-built man wearing a suit and a black, skull-like mask with various pipes and tubes running from it, standing in the air with his hands behind his back.
"ALL-FOR-ONE...!" growled Toshinori, his voice incomparably deep as his vibrant blue eyes came to life like azure blue flames.
Exhaling a light-hearted chuckle, the masked man, the greatest enemy of all One-for-All users, All-for-One, calmly mused, "Such ferocity. It's been a while since I felt genuine shivers like this."
Spreading his hands, revealing two tiny 'voids' in his palms, All-for-One added, "It's a shame your friend is injured, and I didn't come here to fight. Rather, I came to issue you a warning..."
"Warning?" parroted Toshinori, his expression hardening even further as he asserted, "As if I would ever trust a thing you had to say..."
"This is bigger than us," replied All-for-One. "What I have to say concerns the fate of this world and humanity as a species. If this weren't a matter of utmost importance, I would destroy you and capture that little protege of yours right here and now..."
Without waiting for Toshinori's response, All-for-One returned his hands behind his back, revealing, "The existence of Quirks and the Meta World Transversal phenomenon are just the precursors to an even greater event. They are the planet's way of preparing us for what's to come. Thus, while I desire little more than killing you and reclaiming One-for-All, our little tiff can wait..."
Though Toshinori couldn't see his face, he could imagine All-for-One grinning from ear to ear as he said, "To ensure humanity's triumph in the conflicts to come, I'm here to propose both a truce...and an alliance..."
...
..
.

Clenching his teeth hard enough to make his gums bleed, Toshinori growled, "I will NEVER cooperate with you, villain! You are the Symbol of Evil, a monster who has plagued this world for over a hundred years! You dare pretend you care about anything other than yourself!?"
Raising his shoulders in a dismissive shrug, All-for-One replied, "I'm sure it makes things easier for you if you see me that way. However, while I am proud to call myself a Villain, I am far from the 'absolute evil' you users of One-for-All purport me to be. At the very least, I can't hold a candle to the despots and tyrants whose sins formed the foundation atop which our society&ndash;nay, all of human civilization is built. I have always been content to rule from the shadows, and while I have killed more than my fair share of innocents, I have never committed genocide or discriminated against people based on their race, religious beliefs, or nationality. Rather, much like your beloved Professor there, it is my foremost desire to ensure that humanity&ndash;myself included, endures eternally..."
"Yes, with you ruling over them like a God!" retorted Toshinori, quickly reaching the limits of his patience.
"If humanity survives and prospers, does it matter?" asked All-for-One. "There will always be evil in this world, All Might. There is nothing you, nor anyone else, can do about that. In fact, depending on the circumstances, our situations could very easily be reversed. Do you believe the average person would care about my past crimes if I appeared as the leader of the forces fighting to protect the entire world? And how do you suppose they would react if their so-called Heroes focused their efforts on defeating me and my forces than the enemies attempting to conquer and subjugate them?"
Though Toshinori couldn't see it due to the skull-like apparatus covering it, All-for-One shook his head in admonition, adopting a chiding tone as he said, "When armies and terrors from another world come knocking at their doors, the only thing most people will care about is that someone is there to answer at their behest, ensuring they can live their menial little lives in peace. Our current society is a testament to that fact. The planet gave us power and time, yet, instead of cultivating the abilities they were granted, the average person embraces the mundane, never satisfied but unwilling to fight for the change they desire..."
"I don't care what you say," growled Toshinori. "I will never work with you, no matter how 'sincere' your desire to protect humanity. You murdered my Master, the woman I regarded as my own mother! Not only that, you went after her family, people that had nothing to do with you, and orchestrated their demise! Don't think I don't know what you did, you monster...!"
"..."
As one of the very first Quirks he had stolen was a Lie Detecting Quirk, All-for-One could tell All Might wasn't lying when he said he 'knew' what he had done. At the very least, he believed he knew the truth, causing an awkward silence to permeate the massive, futuristic storage room.
Half-turning as if he were about to leave, All-for-One stated, "If you knew what that boy had to endure during his upbringing, you would know that I am not the sole Villain in that situation. If your Master had not abandoned her son-"
Feeling something 'snap' in his mind, Toshinori, having already set down David, shouted, "ALL-FOR-ONE!!!" before launching himself at the man in question. The one thing he could not endure was All-for-One speaking ill of his Master, the kindest, more vibrant woman Toshinori had ever known. She didn't 'abandon' her son. Rather, fearing All-for-One would target him as a way of getting to her, she swallowed her sadness and entrusted him to a private foster home before making her final stand, not even telling her closest friends where he was.
Stopping Toshinori with an oversized, incredibly muscular arm, All-for-One remarked, "This is one of the problems with you Heroes. You're all so emotional..."
Repelling Toshinori at hypersonic speeds with a combination of his Impact Recoil, Spring-like Limbs, and Hypertrophy Quirks, All-for-One added, "Even when the truth is presented directly before you, you ignore it in favor of your distorted version of reality. I may be a monster. There's no disputing that fact. But at least I own it."
Punctuating his statement, All-for-One smoothed out his lapels as an inky black substance erupted from the mouth of the metal-manipulating villain. Toshinori was far more powerful than he expected, but more than that, he didn't want to upset his 'patrons' by damaging I-Island's facilities. He had already sown the seeds he intended to reap later, so he had no reason to stick around.
"Get back here, you coward!" screamed Toshinori, punching through the inky black liquid as it enveloped All-for-One's body. He intended to stop the latter from teleporting away, but all he succeeded in doing was filling his mouth with a metallic taste as some of the inky black substance got into it.
Realizing All-for-One had escaped, Toshinori screamed, "Noooooooooo!" with his blue eyes blazing furiously. Unfortunately, no matter how angry he was, it didn't change the fact he had, once again, 'allowed' his nemesis to escape his grasp...
...
..
.
Though there was only a single fatality, the 2149 I-Expo was canceled in the wake of the 'terrorist attack.' The appearance of All-for-One and the truth of Sam's betrayal were kept a secret from all but a select few, while Izuku and the members of Class 1-A that had participated in the incident were lauded as Heroes. Izuku and Momo, in particular, were asked to do interviews in their Paragon and Creati personas, something neither was in a hurry to experience again...
With her father being the only other casualty of the incident, ignoring the villains, Izuku didn't see Melissa for two days. The central research tower had been closed to outsiders, even those with Level 5 clearance, so Izuku spent his time hanging out in Momo's penthouse suite, enjoying his 'youth' while periodically checking his phone to field messages from Rumi.
A testament to how 'close' they had become, Rumi threatened to fly over to I-Island and beat the shit out of Izuku if she saw he was injured during his interview. She also told him that he should avoid dying at all costs lest she digs up his grave, finds a way to revive him, and then sends him off a second time with her thighs. This may have sounded like a joke, but Izuku knew she was serious when Rumi sent him a short video of her crushing a watermelon with her thighs...
Fortunately, after a good night's sleep, a hot bath, and a morning paizuri, provided as a courtesy of Momo, Izuku's left arm had fully recovered. As a result, he was spared from having Rumi fly over to beat his ass. Instead, she promised to do so when everyone came to stay at Ōkunoshima during the final few weeks of Summer Break.
Since he was primarily going to Ōkunoshima for 'training,' Izuku wasn't too worried about getting his shit kicked in. It was a good way to acquire Free Attribute Points, and he doubted Rumi would be too rough on him with the girls around. It was fairly obvious she intended to secure her position as his 'number one,' and she couldn't do that if she bullied him, garnering the resentment of everyone else.
If Izuku's suspicions were correct, Rumi was planning to install herself as the 'Big Sister(Aneki)' of the group. To that end, she would likely be 'very' flirtatious, borderline clingy when returning from her patrols. Then, before leaving again, she would 'permit' the other girls to play with him, securing her place at the top of the 'pecking order' by maintaining her status as the top-ranked Heroine while also serving as his most voracious lover.
Unfortunately for the girls, Izuku fully intended to cooperate with Rumi so long as she didn't take things too far. As much as he would like to pretend he didn't have a favorite, Izuku knew it would be impossible to conceal his fondness for the beautiful rabbit girl. Her character and temperament were pretty much the 'ideal' he was referring to when Mina asked him about his preferences in women. She occasionally gave off some yandere vibes, but as he had no intention of leaving her, Izuku wasn't concerned about Rumi losing her shit and legitimately attempting to kill him. The bronze-skinned beauty was a true Hero at heart, so even if they did break up, Izuku was fairly confident he would recover from any beatings she gave him...
Seated atop Izuku's lap in one of his t-shirts and pair of black panties with a cartoonish skull on them, Kyouka calmly informed, "Melissa is asking everyone to meet up at the cafe we had drinks at the other day..."
Piggybacking off of Kyouka's words, Mina, nestled next to Izuku on his left side in a lace brassiere and a thong, added, "We should definitely go see her. I've been worried about her being all by herself after her father's injury."
Nodding in affirmation, Momo, lying to Izuku's right in a white babydoll, matching panties, stockings, and a garter belt, supplied, "She's been very active in the group chat, but I'm still concerned. Shall we arrange to meet her this afternoon?"
"Sounds good," replied Izuku, switching to the group chat to make the suggestion himself. He was enjoying just relaxing and watching movies with the girls in their varied undergarments but staying cooped up inside Momo's penthouse wasn't the best way they could spend the day. It was far from the worst but was indisputably a little indulgent.
Seeing Izuku suggest meeting up around 1 PM for lunch, Toru, snuggled up next to Mina in a cat-themed hoodie and nothing else, jokingly pointed out, "That means we have a little more than three hours to fool around..."
Interceding before Toru could get up to her usual antics, Tsuyu, lying between Momo and Ochaco in a simple camisole and frog-print panties, reasoned, "We just spent all of yesterday afternoon having an orgy. There is such a thing as too much sex, ribbit."
Though she felt similar to Toru, Ochaco, wearing pale blue lace and a pink hoodie, decided to support her uncontested best friend, stating, "Tsuyu's right, Toru-san. Even if he recovers quickly, we shouldn't pressure Izuku into having sex all the time..."
Raising her hands in mock surrender, Toru replied, "Jeez, calm down, girls. I was just making a joke. No need to bite my head off." In truth, she was more than willing to go a few rounds, but she knew Izuku was probably in a 'zen' state after fucking for nearly ten hours the previous day, continuing well into the morning...
Seeing through Toru and Ochaco like glass, a soft chuckle emanated from Izuku's throat as he shook his head and smiled. Ochaco wasn't nearly as bad as Toru, and neither came anywhere close to Rumi, but she was a bit of a nympho. With his extra sensitive nose, Izuku could smell when the women around him were in the mood for a dicking, and Ochaco had been in a near-perpetual state of arousal since losing her virginity. The same could be said of Momo, Mina, Tsuyu, and even Kyouka, especially when they were cuddling like this, but she and Toru had the strongest scents by far...
"Someone didn't take it as a joke..." muttered Kyouka, deadpanning as she felt Izuku's semi becoming fully erect beneath her. Her crotch was still a bit sore from the previous day, but she followed her words by spreading her legs slightly and reaching between her thighs, grasping the offending member as she added, "You really are insatiable..." in an accusatory tone.
"Not insatiable..." replied Izuku, reaching around to caress Kyouka's slit through her panties as he added, "Just blessed to be surrounded by cute, beautiful, and overall amazing women..."
...
..
.

Though Melissa's room was on the 72nd Floor of the Central Research Center's Residential Tower, Izuku and the rest of the attack squad would need to climb an additional 128 Floors if they wanted to reach the central security terminal. There was no way they could accomplish such a feat in less time than it took the rescue team to descend to the ground floor and free the Heroes, so, at Melissa's behest, they began busting down doors on the 80th Floor to draw the enemy to a park-like zone where research on plant-based and other naturalistic Quirks was conducted.
As she was the most familiar with the building's layout, having literally memorized everything from the floor plan to the location of ventilation shafts and maintenance ladders, Melissa served as the team's tactical advisor, explaining, "With most of the building on lockdown, they'll most likely come to us from the central elevator shaft. We should expect small and medium arms fire as well as several combat-oriented Quirk users."
Having gotten a glimpse of the number of people occupying the reception hall, Kyouka pointed out, "I don't think their numbers are that great. There were only seven gunmen at the venue, and they couldn't have too many people monitoring security, or else they would have noticed us moving up and down the emergency stairwell..."
Nodding his head in affirmation, Izuku stated, "I believe Earphone Jack may be on to something. Few things are more high-profile than invading I-Island, yet our enemy has been fairly well-behaved. Odds are, this is a simple 'smash and grab,' so they likely only have enough people to fit into a single chopper, maybe on Osprey."
Cupping her chin, Melissa paused for a moment before supplying a curt nod and postulating, "If that's the case, they can't have more than twenty, maybe twenty-four people. If we exclude the flight crew, the gunmen at the reception, the people necessary to monitor the security system, and those staging the heist itself...that leaves around four to eight people? Not as many as I expected..."
"But we shouldn't underestimate them," said Tokoyami. "They were daring enough to stage a heist when famous Heroes from all over the world were present, including All Might himself. They may have some powerful Quirks on their side."
"I'm inclined to agree, but they can't be 'that' powerful," responded Izuku. "If they were truly confident in their abilities, they wouldn't have left the reception to a bunch of hired gunmen. They also didn't attempt the usual intimidation tactics, so, more likely than not, they're fearful of what might happen if they do."
"Either way, I can hear the elevator coming..." informed Kyouka, pulling her earphone jacks from the ground before seeking cover behind a large rock. She was far from bulletproof, so her duty within the attack squad was to scout and disable any cameras they happened to pass along the way.
"Then let's see what these pansies are made of," said Kirishima, punching his fist into his palm as his body rapidly hardened, becoming angular and rock-like. His actions prompted Tokoyami to wear his Dark Shadow like a veil while Izuku, taking point, manifested Blackwhip across his body like a suit of armor, complete with a flickering cape and an angular helmet with ghostly teal eyes. With teal lightning crackling around his body, he looked more like a Villain than a true Hero.
"Badass..." muttered Kirishima, his eyes wide and an expression of awe on his face.&nbsp;
Smiling wryly beneath his helmet, Izuku responded with a curt "Thanks" before shifting his gaze to Ochaco, Mina, and Melissa, suggesting, "The three of you should hide with Kyouka and wait for an opportunity to catch the enemy by surprise. No sense in standing out in the open if the enemy arrives with machine guns..."
"Yeah, yeah..." replied Mina, making a show of rolling her eyes before dragging Ochaco and Mina to the bushes near Kyouka's hiding spot. She was tempted to point out that Todoroki wasn't bulletproof, but even with her powerup and Acid Control, she couldn't imagine defeating her icy-hot classmate. He could wave his hand and produce an ice wall the size of a ship-sinking glacier, so she wouldn't argue he wasn't 'qualified' to stand in the line of fire...
Less than ten seconds after the girls had hidden, the doors to the central elevator hissed open, revealing an exceptionally skinny man with green hair and features similar to a billygoat alongside a short, remarkably stout man with a tiny face and a head that seemed to flow seamlessly into his neck and body. Both wore shock-absorbant bulletproof vests and black coveralls, but, more notably, neither carried a firearm.
Raising his brows, Kirishima asked, "Seriously?" in an incredulous tone. "They sent just two people to stop us...?"
As Kirishima hadn't exactly kept his voice down, the skinny, goat-like man glowered as he said, "Impudent brat. Our orders were to capture you, but now I feel like teaching you a lesson..."
Growing his hands into large, webbed claws, the goat-like man appeared to grab the air, condensing it into a pressurized sphere before flinging it at Kirishima at tremendous speeds...

("Not terrible for a villain...") thought Izuku. The goat-like man was about as strong as the average teacher from UA, so it wasn't strange for him to be confident against a bunch of 'kids.' Unfortunately, the students of UA High's Hero Program were anything but ordinary schoolchildren...
"Eat this...!" shouted Kirishima, punching at the ball of compressed air instead of attempting to evade it. Izuku had been tempted to intercept it for him, but as he knew the effect of his enemy's Quirk and what Kirishima was capable of, he didn't see any reason to steal the fiery-haired youth's thunder...

Though he was pushed back a bit due to the wind pressure, Kirishima was able to tear through the sphere of compressed air without sustaining even a negligible injury. This caused the goat-like villain to grimace, but before he could scoop up the metal floor and lob it like an oversized cannonball, Todoroki sent a massive wave of ice at both him and his stout companion, seemingly freezing them in place...

("That one might be a little troublesome...") thought Izuku, unflinching even as Todoroki's ice was abruptly smashed apart, followed by the emergence of the goat-like man and his now purple, ogre-like companion. The former was able to compact inorganic matter like an ordinary person would pack snowballs, while the latter was able to transform into a literal Ogre, drastically increasing his physical attributes and granting him near-instantaneous regeneration for a 'very' brief period.
"Leave the ogre to me," said Izuku, charging forward at near supersonic speeds without waiting for anyone to respond. Even his enemy barely had time to react, raising his massive fists over his head but failing to get off an attack before Izuku buried his fist deep into the man's rotund, leathery gut. It felt like he was punching a sandbag several centimeters thick, but the result was far beyond anything he had imagined.
Though he limited his Strength to a 'meager' 500, Izuku's attack sent the purple-skinned man flying backward due to the properties of One-for-All and the force of the blow being 'entirely' directed back at his opponent. In essence, thanks to Melissa's bracer, his attack had effectively done twice the intended damage without him feeling any strain, just a slight pressure. The man must have weighed more than 850kgs, but Izuku felt like he had punched a soccer ball, not a 300cm tall behemoth...
"..."
"..."
"..."
"..."
"..."
"..."
"..."
"..."
Recovering marginally faster than everyone else, the goat-like man swiped his webbed claws at Izuku, screaming, "You monster...!" as he simultaneously leaped away.
Since the man would displace his bracer and costume if his attack landed, Izuku's body appeared to 'flicker' as he evaded. By leaving Blackwhip at his original location, he was able to make it look like he had left behind an afterimage, both terrifying and confusing his enemies as he attacked from their blind spot.
Fortunately for the goat-like man and his classmates, Izuku didn't attempt to give chase as the former flipped backward several times before darting away fast enough that his legs became a blur. Instead, he left the man for Todoroki, Tokoyami, and Kirishima to deal with as he focused his attention on the purple-skinned ogre, the latter rising to his feet with steam coming from a fist-shaped indentation in his stomach.
Releasing a Hulk-like bellow, complete with massive veins bulging on his arms, neck, and shoulders, the purple-skinned ogre smashed the ground with enough force to create a large, shrapnel-filled explosion and produce a sizeable crater.
Shielding himself with Blackwhip, Izuku intended to wait for the dust to clear but ended up evading when his Intuition abruptly triggered. At that exact moment, a meat-cleaver-like blade sliced through the area where his neck had been, causing goosebumps to break across his body even though he was fairly certain he could have tanked it.
("This fucker is actually trying to kill me...") thought Izuku, lamenting the fact he couldn't do the same. He likely wouldn't be held accountable even if he 'did' kill the ogre-like man, but he would rather not be seen as a killer by his classmates and girlfriends. Not when he was more than capable of settling things without the need for 'excess' bloodshed...
With his opponent lurching toward him and attempting a follow-up swipe, Izuku's expression hardened as he raised his right arm, empowering his body with One-for-All just in case Melissa's bracer fractured. Instead, the man's blade splintered like sugar glass, Izuku barely feeling a thing as the kinetic energy from the blow was reflected with more than 99% efficacy.
("This shit is totally Vibranium...") thought Izuku, taking advantage of his opponent's stupefaction to hammer him with literally hundreds of blows from Blackwhip. They were nowhere near as powerful as his initial attack, but their volume caused the purple-skinned ogre's Vitality to drain rapidly, steam exuding from his pores as he shrank visibly.
Continuing his onslaught until the man had returned to normal, falling to his knees, Izuku stopped right in front of him, his expression cold as he said, "You're lucky I'm a Hero..." before slamming his fist into the man's mouth and nose. He held back to avoid killing the man, but his nose was undoubtedly broken, and most of his front-facing teeth were knocked out as he flew backward several meters, crashing into the ground and sliding to a stop, unable to rise.
Understanding from the man's status that he wasn't getting up any time soon, Izuku turned his attention to the fight between his classmates and the goat-like man. Todoroki, alone, would have been more than enough to clench a victory, so with Tokoyami and Kirishima providing backup, it was a very, very one-sided fight...
("If they're this weak, we might actually be able to settle things without Toshinori...") thought Izuku. However, as entrusting the matter to Toshi was inarguably the safest option, he had no intention of ascending the remaining 130 Floors to observe from the sidelines. The Experience was pretty fucking awesome, especially with his 500 Luck, but he imagined he would get a lot more once he began diving into breaches...
