I, without any personality, become a hero!

"...Perhaps Allmight was careless...and let the enemy escape..."

Upon hearing Midoriya's surprised remark, the blond man said somewhat guiltily, as if it were his fault.

"Impossible, the enemy must have used some underhanded tactics to force Allmite to let him escape..."

In a frenzy, Izuku Midoriya's mind raced, completely oblivious to the fact that the mud was trapped in a cola bottle and unable to move; nor did he notice the thin, blond man wiping the cold sweat from his brow...

"Unforgivable!!"

Izuku Midoriya's words, spoken with icy coldness and suddenly filled with murderous intent, startled the blond man beside him, who was completely unaware of what had happened.

"Uncle, you said a student was entangled in mud. They must have taken advantage of All Might's inattention to kidnap a hostage and use such a despicable method to escape from No. 1. The enemy is so insidious!"

The blond man's mouth hung open as he watched as Izuku Midoriya instantly completed his entire imagined scenario, his face turning icy with anger, and he coldly said:

"Sludge is trying to retaliate against All Might by capturing him in this way, damaging All Might's reputation and harming others. The enemy is extremely wicked!!"

"Um... calm down... there are other pro heroes inside... and right now Mud has the students hostage, so there's no way for them to make a move..."

Seeing Izuku Midoriya's actions, the blond man hurriedly tried to dissuade him, fearing that the boy might do something dangerous in the heat of the moment.

"Don't worry, I'm very calm, which is why I'm needed at times like this!"

Izuku Midoriya clenched his fists, looking at the "Death Gauntlet" he was wearing. At this moment, there was no one more suitable than him to rescue the hostages.

"All Might said not long ago: 'An expert is proficient in fighting any enemy!'" Recalling All Might's words just a short while ago, Izuku didn't hesitate to write them down as one of his mottos for striving for excellence, and confidently stated:

"This time, I'll make sure I find the enemy's weakness!"

As soon as he finished speaking, steel wire shot out from Midoriya's "Death Gauntlet," wrapping around a window of a building on the side of the street before retracting and pulling him off the ground, leaving only the blond man muttering to himself:

"I remember it was... Akaya Kaiun... As someone this child idolizes, I'm truly ashamed..."

Izuku Midoriya, who was pulled to the window of the building, suddenly had a wide view. The muddy enemies that were wreaking havoc in the middle of the street were in sight, while the professional heroes who were concerned about the hostages were on the side. Mountain Heroine, Forest Heroine, and other professional heroes were all there.

When Midoriya focused his gaze on the hostage entangled in mud, he was somewhat surprised! The kidnapped hostage happened to be someone he knew, his classmate Katsuki Bakugo. No wonder the explosion sounded so familiar to Izuku; it really was someone he knew.

However, this was no time for surprise. Izuku Midoriya quickly began to calculate how to rescue Bakugo from the scene.

"Child, it's dangerous here! Get out of here!"

Midoriya's actions naturally attracted the attention of the pro heroes. Kamui immediately warned and dissuaded him, saying that if the enemy were to run rampant on the scene and hurt him, he would be in big trouble.

"That's all done!"

Having already calculated everything, Izuku Midoriya didn't respond to the pro hero's words. Instead, he pulled his scarf up a little, completely covering half of his face, and then...

"action!"

The steel wire in his right hand was directly aimed at Bakugo Katsuki, who was being held hostage by the mud, and wrapped around him. Because the steel wire was very well concealed, the enemy did not notice it.

After Midoriya successfully wrapped the steel wire around Bakugo's body, he pulled hard backward with his right hand!

Bakugo's figure was pulled mostly out of the mud in an instant, but the mud was still tightly wrapped around him. When the enemy discovered that their hostage was being rescued, they spotted Izuku Midoriya.

"It's you again, you little wire brat! Don't even think about rescuing my prey!"

The mud-covered enemy shouted and tightened its grip on Bakugo Katsuki, determined to rescue the hostage unless it was a fist like All Might's that could create a storm.

"Steel wire? Is it 'Steel Wire Reaper'?!"

"Is that the kid who was so active not long ago? I actually saw him here!"

"Truly, heroes emerge from among the young!"

After the enemy in the mud revealed Izuku Midoriya's identity, the pro heroes and onlookers exclaimed in amazement, while Midoriya, busy saving people, had no time to care about what others thought of him.

The steel wire pulled Bakugo's body out a little, but the mud was about to swallow him up again. However, Izuku Midoriya did not panic. He had already guessed that the steel wire could not directly rescue Bakugo, but!

Midoriya still had his left hand free, and he was already prepared for what was to come. With all his might, he swung his left hand and entangled a large piece of concrete that was lying on the ground, throwing it into the mud!

"Wire Throw"

Due to his long-term strength training, Izuku Midoriya could not pull heavy objects like trucks, but he could still pull heavy objects like large blocks of concrete, which were still within human strength.

After witnessing All Might defeat the sludge enemy, Midoriya understood that the sludge enemy's characteristic is fluidity, similar to water, which is immune to sharp cutting attacks. However! Water can be splashed by large rocks and create waves!

Bakugo Katsumi was pulled out of the muddy area by the steel wire in Midoriya Izuku's right hand, while at the same time, the steel wire in his left hand pulled and threw a large piece of concrete that directly hit the muddy body!

Like a stone thrown into water, large chunks of mud scattered and flew everywhere, affecting the tentacles that were entangled with Bakugo, causing them to involuntarily retract!

At the same time, Midoriya seized the opportunity and with a swift pull of his right hand, he completely yanked Bakugo out of the mud!

"Very good!!"

Bakugo was successfully rescued, and the pro heroes and pedestrians around cheered in unison. However, Izuku did not let his guard down, for the mud enemy had not been defeated!

"Damn it! Damn it!!"

Katsuki Bakugo, who was rescued by Izuku Midoriya, just kept cursing in a fit of rage. Being kidnapped by the enemy and held hostage was a great humiliation for him.

"Very good, now that the hostages have been rescued, leave the rest to us!"

As the pro heroes prepared to take over the task of defeating the enemy, Izuku Midoriya lowered his voice to avoid being recognized by acquaintances, and then immediately said:

"The mud enemy is immune to physical attacks, so my steel wire attacks are completely ineffective against him. The attacks from you two, Forest God Might and Death Crimson Fist, will also be difficult to achieve!"

Izuku Midoriya's words were echoed by the two pro heroes. Their feint attack on the enemy had been completely ineffective. This type of enemy with a Quirk was truly troublesome.

Without prior arrangement, everyone turned their attention to another pro hero, and Midoriya suggested:

"Mountain Heroine, could you please crush this mud-covered enemy into pieces? Just grind him into chunks, he won't die!"

"I don't want to!" To Midoriya's surprise, the Mountain Heroine resolutely refused, saying with great disgust, "To be entangled with such a filthy enemy would ruin my reputation as a woman!"

"Um... that's a really hard-to-refute reason..." Izuku Midoriya, who made the suggestion, was a little embarrassed, while Kamui in the Forest and Red Fist of Death were even more embarrassed, covering their faces. They had to admit that they were pro heroes from the same agency, and now they all felt a little ashamed for being Mountain Heroines.

"You wretched wire brat, you're just as annoying as All Might!!"

The scattered mud quickly coalesced into one, roaring as it surged towards Izuku Midoriya.

Midoriya Steel Wire pulled himself away from where he stood, also dragging the furious Bakugo Katsuki along to prevent him from being captured by the enemy again.

Seeing Bakugo Katsuki, whose pride had been shattered, utterly humiliated, Midoriya Izuku suddenly offered him a suggestion: to lower his voice again to avoid being recognized by Bakugo, he said:

"My name is Akaya Kaiun. My steel wires are ineffective against muddy enemies. I just saw your Quirk; it seems to be an explosion, right?"

"What do you mean?"

Despite being saved by Izuku Midoriya, Bakugo still felt a bit awkward, and didn't speak to his benefactor in a proper tone of thanks.

"I'll tie you down with a steel wire and blast the mud apart with an explosion. Only you can do it now, but of course you can choose to refuse!"

"No! I agree!!"

Having understood the man's meaning, Bakugo wore a ferocious smile. Being kidnapped by Mud was a great humiliation for him, and he certainly wouldn't refuse to avenge himself on the spot!

"Then let's get started!"

Without further ado, steel wires were wrapped around Bakugo Katsuki's limbs and body. Midoriya Izuku threw him forcefully in front of the enemy in the mud. Bakugo, with a ferocious smile, immediately launched the most intense bombardment on the enemy!

"BOMM!!"

With a deafening explosion, Bakugo showed no mercy to the enemy who had embarrassed him, and he blasted at them with all his might.

Meanwhile, the mud enemy wouldn't let himself be attacked. He immediately retaliated, and mud tentacles swept towards Bakugo. But just as the mud was about to capture Bakugo with its tentacles, Midoriya pulled him back, and Bakugo escaped the range of the tentacles' capture.

Bakugo's bombardment created a large cloud of black smoke that obscured the view. At this time, Izuku could not see the enemy's situation, so he pulled Bakugo back to his side. After the smoke cleared, a large chunk of Mud's body was missing.

"Damn brats, I'm going to kill you all!!"

Completely enraged and driven mad, the mud writhed and surged toward Midoriya and Bakugo, but to no avail. With the high mobility provided by the steel wires, Midoriya Izuku used one hand to wrap the steel wire around other nodes and pull himself along, while the other hand wrapped the steel wire around Bakugo and pulled him along with it.

The mud-covered enemies missed their target; given Izuku Midoriya's agility, catching up was simply impossible.

"Wow...that's amazing!"

The professional heroes and onlookers watched as the two middle school students toyed with the mud enemy as if they were playing a game. When the mud tried to catch up with them, Midoriya's steel wire teleported them away. Under Bakugo Katsuki's constant bombardment of explosions, the mud was reduced to a small piece.

"Akagu boy..."

The blond man standing to the side, blushing, had to admit that he was none other than All Might, the hero that Izuku Midoriya admired most.

Because his body was severely injured in a battle with a powerful enemy years ago, and his stomach was removed before he could barely survive, he can now only maintain his Quirk for three hours a day to perform hero activities.

All Might, whose Quirk duration was running out, hurriedly handed the enemy over to the police station, only to find that the Coke bottle in his pocket was missing. He immediately turned around and frantically searched for the enemy... Unfortunately, his Quirk duration had already reached its limit.

"Die! You bastard!!"

Once again pulled by Midoriya's steel wire, Bakugo unleashed a massive burst of power, completely annihilating the mud enemy into fragments. Now, the ground is covered only with mud that wriggles like slugs, trying to gather together.

"Is it all done?"

The professional heroes and onlookers watched as Izuku Midoriya relentlessly bombarded Bakugo, blasting the muddy enemy to shreds. And now it was finally over.

After everything was over, Bakugo Katsuki finally calmed down, feeling a sense of humiliation. At least he had personally blown that bastard to pieces, and...

Bakugo felt a little awkward. He wanted to thank the "Steel Wire Reaper" named Akaya Kaiun. If it weren't for his help, he probably would have remembered this embarrassing incident for the rest of his life.

While Bakugo Katsuyuki hesitated over how to express his gratitude, onlookers, reporters who had been waiting for a long time, and even pro heroes rushed towards them, wanting to get to know the "Steel Wire Reaper".

"Um! You can just put the mud enemy in a cola bottle. I'm off now!!"

Seeing the crowd surging towards him, Izuku Midoriya was startled. He immediately used steel wire to wrap around a high place, imitating the movement of "Spider-Man," and prepared to escape. At the same time, he left behind a message on how to trap the mud enemies.

"They've left..."

Those who wanted to see the true face of "Steel Wire Reaper" were somewhat disappointed, but they immediately turned their attention to Bakugo and began to fuss over him, since everyone had witnessed the boy's bravery just now.

"Akatani Kaiun... I'll thank him next time I have the chance."

I silently thought of Bakugo, wondering when we would meet again.

Chapter 19 Working is impossible!

The next day, when Izuku Midoriya arrived at school, he saw his classmates surrounding Katsuki Bakugo, all talking at once.

"Wow, Bakugo is amazing! I saw him on TV!"

"You blasted that mud-covered enemy to smithereens in just a few moves!"

"And that guy dragging you with the steel wire, isn't that 'Steel Wire Reaper'? Did you see what he looks like?"

Yesterday, Bakugo, who was kidnapped by Mud, was rescued by Midoriya. He then used a steel wire to help Bakugo defeat Mud. However, Izuku was disguising his appearance and said that his name was "Akatani Kaiun".

However, all the pro heroes were there yesterday, and some onlookers recorded the scene on their phones. The footage was later handed over to reporters and broadcast on the news. Midoriya fled first because he sensed something was wrong, while Bakugo was surrounded by reporters and given a long interview.

Now, Katsuhiro Bakugo, who's been in the news, is practically a celebrity, especially since he teamed up with the reappearing "Steel Wire Reaper" to defeat the mud enemies, which is a major selling point.

At school, Bakugo was surrounded by classmates chatting and gossiping, while Izuku Midoriya remained silent in his seat. At times like these, he could just pretend nothing had happened, as he couldn't let his hidden identity be exposed.

"This is so annoying! Get out of my way!!"

It sounded like a swarm of flies buzzing in his ears. Bakugo Katsuki finally lost his temper and chased away everyone surrounding him. At that moment, Bakugo's gaze fell on Midoriya.

"Does Deku resemble Akaya Kaiun a bit?"

The thought involuntarily crossed Bakugo Katsuki's mind, but he immediately dismissed it. How could that be? Izuku Midoriya, whom Bakugo had known since childhood, was merely a Quirkless individual who didn't even dare to disobey him.

Furthermore, Bakugo just learned yesterday that the name of "Steel Wire Reaper" is Akaya Kaion, who also has a similar quirk of shooting "steel wires".

Midoriya buried his face in guilt, which would normally be a normal reaction, but right now Izuku was afraid that Bakugo would recognize him. After all, he had grown up with Bakugo since he was a child, and apart from his mother, Midoriya Inoko, the person who knew Izuku best was Bakugo Katsuki.

However, Bakugo quickly turned to chat with his other classmates, without even considering the connection between Akaya Kaion and Midoriya Izuku, or perhaps he had never even thought about Midoriya.

Izuku Midoriya secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He was genuinely afraid that if Bakugo discovered his true identity, he might fight him to the death—and he wasn't kidding! Knowing Bakugo's pride, Izuku knew that such a thing would definitely happen!

————————————————————————————

At the seaside park, Izuku Midoriya, who had just changed his disguise, changed back into the "Akatani Kaiun" outfit. The main reason was that he had heard complaints from the supermarket staff near his home. Recently, two robbers had been robbing cash registers in the area, and many supermarkets had been robbed. He was very worried that the supermarket where he worked might be robbed.

Midoriya went to the supermarket to find out what was going on. Apparently, the two men seemed to be repeat offenders, doing nothing but small things. Not only was there no reward for catching them, but the two guys were also incredibly slippery. Even enthusiastic professional heroes who went to catch them escaped.

The more he listened to the name Midoriya, the more familiar it sounded. He thought of the burly man and the rat man who had repeatedly failed him in the neighboring city. Could it be those two?

So, Izuku Midoriya simply put on the disguise of "Steel Wire Reaper" and went around the streets to see which two guys were causing trouble recently.

Since he was already in his own city, Midoriya was very familiar with the streets and routes. He headed towards the less crowded streets to see if he could find any luck.

While passing through a street, Midoriya suddenly heard the sound of breaking glass. He quickly ran over and saw a cashier chasing after him from the supermarket, yelling at him, a burly man running away with the cash register, and a rat-like man observing the surroundings to see if anyone was chasing after him.

"...It really is those two."

Izuku Midoriya was speechless for a moment, then took off chasing after the two.

"What a great harvest, brother! Coming to this city was definitely the right decision!"
