《My Hero Academia: Pathway to the Top》Chapter 7 - All Might's Power
Advertisement
All Might looked at the barely awake Hayato with a proud glint in his eyes. In fact, he'd been there just as Hayato had said 'Go Beyond!', the reason he didn't interfere was that he knew Hayato could grow in this situation and if he couldn't he was prepared to step in.
"Midoriya, get Aizawa-sensei and Tagami out of here." All Might spoke to Izuku, Asui, and Toga before he turned around and faced Shigaraki, Kurogiri and the Large Nomu with a scowl on his face.
As he had a death staring competition with the Villains, Toga carried Hayato with a worried expression on her face, while Asui and Izuku helped each other hold Aizawa-sensei. Toga glared at the villains with hatred, especially the Large Nomu who looked like a bigger version of what hurt Hayato, in her eyes.
"Midoriya-kun, did you know Tagami-san was this strong? Ribbet." Asui asked with a curious look in her eye as she looked at Hayato.
"I never knew Hacchan was this strong but he's always been exceptionally strong. Ever since we were kids he'd always stick up for me and after a while he got strong." Izuku said as he walked on, but if one were to look at his face, it was full of admiration for Hayato. It was also apparent from his tone of voice that he thought Hayato was some kind of natural-born hero.
"Well, neither of you have taken a hit off of him. In the battle training, he simply kicked me and I was out. He's extremely strong." Toga spoke with a weird pride. Asui and Izuku both thought that it wasn't anything to be proud of but each to their own.
They got back to the top of the stairs where some of the class were. Kendo and some others son arrived after them.
Seeing Hayato who looked like he'd just been a punching bag for someone, Kendo rushed over to him "Hayato! Hayato, are you okay!?" she practically screamed at him, her usual optimism and bright face gone and replaced with a teary face which looked, in all honesty, quite comical.
"Calm down Kendo! He'll be fine, look he's already healing!" Toga had to drag the crying Kendo off of Hayato, she looked jealous while doing so and it seemed to fuel her strength to get Kendo off of Hayato.
Everyone was looking at Hayato in awe as they'd seen him fighting the smaller Nomu. They couldn't believe someone the same age as them could have such strength.
"Urgh...Jesus Christ, everything hurts..." Hayato spat out a glob of blood as he spoke in short bursts as every time he took a breath his cracked ribs sent pain cascading through his nervous system. Everyone around him had their eyes focused on him like hawks, they were surprised he was even still conscious.
"Why..are you...all looking at me?... Am I that Handsome?...Hahaha...owww...fuck...hahaha" Hayato seemed to be the only one who found his joke funny as he kept switching between laughing and wincing in pain.
Hayato reached into his pocket and brought out more compressed food pills and threw them into his mouth. He needed the energy so he could heal quicker.
Following his wish, his horns started producing more of the R hormone, the hormone which healed his body before. His body was slowly healing quicker and quicker. Hayato focused the healing on the more damaged parts like his ribs and arms.
While he was healing, he looked over at where All Might was fighting the Large Nomu.

All Might was throwing punches at the Nomu's face and they were having no effect. Hayato worked out that the Nomu he fought didn't have even a quarter of the Large Nomu's shock absorption and this shocked him, he didn't know how All Might did.
Hayato didn't know how he even stood up to such a daunting threat, this was why Hayato respected All Might from the bottom of his heart; Because he never gave up, no matter the odds.
Seeing that nothing was working, All Might grabbed the Nomu and suplexed him into the ground. The force of the impact sent clouds of dust up into the air.
When they cleared, to the horror of everyone watching, Kurogiri had opened a warp gate where All Might had planned to suplex Nomu and the exit Warp gate opened up below All Might letting Nomu grab and dig his fingers into All Might's right side.
This was where All Might's weakness was. After a particularly intense fight, he'd been injured in that place, just below the ribs where his stomach should be. The injury destroyed most of his respiratory system and destroyed his stomach. Because of this, he has a limited amount of time in his 'Hero Form' which is his muscular and tall, super strong form.
All Might has one weakness in that form and it's where Nomu is currently digging his fingers into.
Hayato couldn't help but wince as he imagined the pain All Might must be going through.
Before people knew he'd done it, Izuku had started running as fast as he could towards where All Might was fighting. By the time he got there, Nomu's fingers had caused loads of blood to gush out of All Might's side.
Hayato couldn't hear anything but he'd bet a lot of money that Shigaraki would be monologing at the minute or at the very least making snide comments.
Izuku had reached Kurogiri and screamed something along the lines of "Get away from All Might!" as he reached out his hand. Unluckily for Izuku, Kurogiri simply opened a warp gate in front of Izuku so he'd get sent to a random location.
Before he went through the portal, Katsuki came out of nowhere and shot off an explosion on Kurogiri's weakness; The metal plates on his Gaseous body.
While Katsuki held Kurogiri down, Todoroki came out of nowhere and used her Ice Manipulation to freeze the half of Nomu's body that was clawing at All Might's weakness. All Might took advantage of the grip loosening because of the ice and got out of Nomu's grip and jumped over to where Todoroki was, as he landed he winced and held his side.
Kirishima came out of nowhere as well and tried to slice at Shigaraki but unfortunately missed. He retreated back towards where Todoroki, Katsuki, and Izuku were.
People around Hayato exclaimed about how they saved All Might and Hayato smiled, he felt like he was back watching the Anime again.
Shigaraki seemed to order Nomu to kill them all. To everyone's shock, other than Hayato who was too tired, hungry and in too much pain to show shock, Nomu stood up and in the process of doing so, shattered both his arm and leg that were completely frozen solid.
Nomu balanced himself with his remaining limbs and kinda kneeled there until suddenly he healed back his arms and legs. Everyone gasped as they saw the unblemished body of Nomu.
The newly healed Nomu charged towards Katsuki who was holding Kurogiri captive. Before anyone could react, a pang of pain went through everyone's ears as a gigantic sound echoed through the dome. It seemed that Nomu had hit someone.

It wasn't Katsuki but in fact All Might, who pushed Katsuki out of the way and blocked Nomu's punch. He was sent flying backward into a concrete wall that was completely decimated. He would have flown further if it wasn't for the fact that he'd dug his feet into the ground and stopped himself, leaving a long trail of dug up concrete.
When the dust finally disappeared fully, All Might was shown with his arms in the form of a criss-cross guard and he was breathing very heavily.
Everyone near to the collision was thrown back quite a few meters from the air pressure. All Might and the Villains were currently in a stalemate and Shigaraki was monologing again.
Hayato had healed enough to be able to actually sit up. His ribs were basically healed if you didn't look at the many small cracks in them. His arms, however, were fully healed apart from the bruising and some cuts on his skin.
He stood up and ate all of the remaining compressed food pills.
Hayato was still in a world of pain, his was currently bleeding internally and the vertebrae making up his spine had a shaky-at-best kind of condition. But he put on a brave face and hoped he'd heal quicker.
"Tagami! Sit back down you need rest!" Kendo shouted at him as she saw him standing up. Her shout brought the attention of the others. They looked at Hayato in shock as they knew how injured he was after Toga and Kendo did a quick body check on him with the help of Ashido.
The most common thought going through all of their heads was 'How is he standing!? His organs might as well be in pieces! And his skeletal system looks like a jigsaw puzzle!'
Toga tried to get him to sit but she was scared of hurting him so she didn't really put any effort into it "Tagami, sit down right now! It isn't the time to be stubborn and to try and show off!" was all Toga said after her failed attempts at getting him to sit down, he usual playfulness was gone, replaced by worry for her friend.
Hayato smiled at them and told them not to worry. They didn't seem convinced by what he said but they knew they wouldn't be able to force him to sit down.
Hayato and the others turned their attention to where All Might was.
While they were all distracted, Hayato activated his muscle form and lightly ran towards where the fight was about to happen, it hurt but he was healing at the same time so he kept running. He heard yelling and screaming behind him but he simply put his thumb up towards them to signal that everything was going to be okay.
On his way there, he watched Shigaraki charge at Kirishima, Todoroki, Katsuki, and Izuku.
Out of nowhere, All Might charged to intercept Shigaraki. Nomu met his charge and the two started hitting each other.
Hayato was now close enough to hear them speak "Didn't you hear me? His quirk is Shock Absorption, you won't be able to beat him!" Shigaraki's crazed voice rang throughout the surrounding area as he was flung into the air from the wind created from All Might and Nomu's fight.
"Oh yeah? What about it?!" Was All Might's response as he continued hitting Nomu. The speed of their fight was humbling, Hayato could barely make out their punches and even then he knew he wouldn't be able to withstand or dodge any of them.
"He said your quirk was Shock Absorption, not Shock Nullification, so there's got to be a limit to what you can take, right?!" All Might stepped up the intensity of the fight with each word that came out of his mouth. Every word was full of confidence and passion.
Nomu seemed to be being pushed back and he was taking a small amount of damage from the punches he was supposed to be immune to. Shigaraki looked shocked at the information.
"Made to fight me, huh big guy?" All Might roared this as he started stepping forward, pushing Nomu back as he kept punching harder and harder "If you can take me on at my 100%, then I'll just have to go beyond that, WON'T I?!" the ground around the both of them started cracking up into dust as All Might's very steps were filled with monumental power.
By this point, Nomu was getting his ass handed to him, he couldn't stop All Might's momentum.
All of All Might's punches weren't random either, they were aimed and every punch was a punch that was beyond his maximum strength. Hayato could wrap his head around how he did it, as he himself had thrown a punch that was beyond his limit and he couldn't even move after doing so.
Hayato's eyes were full of passion and admiration when he looked at All Might; This was whom he wanted to be like.
One particular punch sent Nomu flying through the forest they were fighting next to. All Might jumped after him "A hero..." as he said this Nomu charged at him and All Might sent a punch right into his face "...can always break out of a tough spot!" after saying this All Might blocked a hit from Nomu with both his hands and counter-attacked by dropkicking Nomu into the ground.
Nomu bounced up into the air because of the force of the dropkick. All Might jumped at Nomu, who was in mid-air and grabbed Nomu's arm and spun mid-air while grunting and once he'd built up enough momentum, he let Nomu go with a roar and threw him right into the ground.
*BANG!*
The ground collapsed into a deep crater with Nomu at the center, cracks stretched for hundreds of meters and showed off how much power was in that throw.
Hayato stopped running as he arrived near Izuku but also because he couldn't help but stop in the face of such power, he was in awe. He couldn't stop wishing that he could be as powerful as All Might because, in front of him, Hayato felt like a child; Someone who paled in comparison to All Might's power.
Hayato knew everyone around him felt the same, as Izuku, Kirishima, Katsuki, and Todoroki all had faces full of shock and awe.
All Might shot down to the ground right next to Nomu "You must've heard what my student said earlier, Villain, so I'll give you a taste of what it means--!" All Might's roar shook everyone's hearts as he pulled back his fist "GO BEYOND! PLUS--!" All Might swung his fist at Nomu's chest and when it hit he roared "ULTRAAA!" and as he yelled this, Nomu's body started to go orange from the heat his body was holding from absorbing All Might's Plus Ultra punch.
*WHOOSH!*
Nomu shot into the sky, completely destroying a part of the dome above them, from the hole, Hayato could see the clouds parting as Nomu was shot through them.
Hayato felt shivers going through his body as he saw such a display of power. His inner All Might fanboy was going crazy. It went crazy when All Might said "I truly have gotten weaker...in my prime, it would've taken 5 hits! But it took more than 300 hits" he said this with a boisterous yet worn out voice but he still managed to laugh despite his terrible condition.
Shigaraki and Kurogiri both looked shocked with both surprise and fear filling their faces. Shigaraki starting scratching his neck and Hayato couldn't help but get weird out by the fact it sounded like he was scratching the dead skin off of his neck.
All Might broke the silence once again "Now Villains...I'm sure we'd all like this to end as soon as possible." he spoke with confidence but Hayato knew he was bluffing. So he decided to back him up and walked over next to him "Yeah, no point in you fighting us, you saw what I did to that Smaller Nomu and I bet neither of you is stronger than it. So back off." Hayato's voice was also full of confidence as he put a bright and very hero-like smile on.
Shigaraki started scratching his neck even more aggressively as he kept mumbling to himself about how All Might isn't any weaker and how the information was wrong.
Hayato wished to speed this up so he spoke "You wanted to kill us, right? So come, come and give it your best shot." Hayato's previously bright smile disappeared from his face as he entered [Oni Mode] to show off his power, his red eyes looked like red infernos filled with blood, like a wild beast's, from Shigaraki's perspective.
Shigaraki flinched backward towards Kurogiri and motioned for him to open a portal for them to get out of here. Kurogiri followed the order and opened a warp gate. Shigaraki walked into it but turned around to glare at both All Might and Hayato as he spoke "I'll get you both next time. Especially you, you annoying brat." As he said this, his eyes went incredibly bloodshot as Hayato could see glimpses of a manic smile of Shigaraki's pale and cracked face.
As he turned around a gunshot went off and a bullet flew and hit Shigaraki's hand that was the only thing that hadn't gone through the warp gate. The hand quickly slithered into the portal soon after it was shot.
"Do not worry students, we, the faculty of U.A. High School, have arrived!" Hayato heard the happy and bright voice of the principal through a megaphone and couldn't help but let a happy smile come across his face as he collapsed down onto one of his knees and exited [Oni Mode] as he coughed up some blood, he soon passed out.
After making sure no one saw All Might, Cementoss, one of the teachers at U.A, used his quirk and manipulated the cement to make a wall that cut off all eyes from All Might's powered down skinny form.
All Might checked Hayato's pulse regardless of his own injuries and sighed with a smile on his face when he knew Hayato was fine "What am I gonna do with you two?" as he said this he looked over at Izuku who was running over to see how Hayato was.
Time passed and all the students were taken back to U.A and Hayato, All Might and Izuku were taken to Recovery Girl in the Infirmary.
Hayato woke up to the grey-haired old granny, Recovery Girl, healing his internal organs and ribs. He looked around and saw his entire body was covered in bandages and he had loads of UV drips feeding him nutrition. He also saw All Might lying on a bed adjacent to him and Izuku was sitting between them with a cast and bandages around his left hand.
Hayato had a content smile. He looked back on his fight with the smaller Nomu and felt that he was very much like a Hero and he felt proud of that fact. Of course, he wasn't going to get arrogant over it, he just wanted to remember it as the start to his path of becoming a Hero.
Hayato lay back and closed his eyes as he relaxed. Today had been an eventful day.
