Before starting the chapter, lemme tell you guys the codenames used till now.

From Team Villains:

Twelve is Ashido, Larceny is Monoma, Extortion is Shinsou, Peach is Yaoyorozu, Venom is Komori, Ruins is Shiozaki, Armature is Kaibara, Pitcher is Mineta, Mezzo is Jirou. Deku and Kingpin? Everyone already knows who Deku is and Tsuburaba is the only Villain mentioned left so that sums up the Villain Team.

From Team Heroes:
Bulwark is Todoroki, Function is Ojiro, Gonzo is Rin, Black is Awase, Shishida is Glass and Sero is Pod.

I hope that was helpful.

~O~

"I don't think so... We should get it out of here!" Ojiro said and the other two nodded in reply. What they didn't see was the shadow of a person, hanging upsidedown behind them by a binding cloth.

Hitoshi Shinsou smirked before using the blinding cloth and wrapping both Bondo and Tsunotori in it and then making their heads collide with each other with force as he swirled them around and released them at an angle that the two ended up crashing into opposite walls of the underpass while grunting in pain. Ojiro turned around and placing the robot on the ground.

"Bondo!! Tsunotori!!" Ojiro exclaimed. And then he was taken a back when his eyes met with Shinsou's. He quickly covered his mouth knowing full well about Shinsou's brainwashing quirk. He couldn't let him take control of his mind right now. As what Todoroki meant to say; they're after Ojiro.

"So, we meet again, huh? Function?" Shinsou said, taking small steady steps towards Ojiro whose hand was clamped to his mouth. He continued, "But this is different than before, don't you think? I've been really wanting to do this since the Sports Festival, you know. A battle with one of you Heroes." Shinsou said, gradually taking his steps towards Ojiro. Ojiro didn't reply to him. He kept his hand clamped to his mouth. Worst part of all was that he couldn't even call for backup. Who knows when would Shinsou get him in his brainwashing trap.

"Not replying, I see. Well then... You choose combat!!" Shinsou exclaimed as he grabbed the binding cloth, which was wrapped around his neck like Aizawa, and tried to attack Ojiro who dodged it by jumping away using his muscular tail. Shinsou tried a few more times but Ojiro's reflexes were pretty sharp as compared to his. Back on the ground, Tsunotori and Bondo grunted before getting up and preparing their aims for Shinsou. Tsunotori attacked first. Using her Horn-Canon quirk, she aimed for the purple haired boy and shot out two of her horns towards him. Shinsou saw one of the horns coming right at his face, it's angle meeting his eyeball and the other approaching his right hand. He shut his eyes close and then...

~O~

"Where are you going? He said we have to keep him busy...!" Monoma whispered to Shiozaki who, suddenly, started walking in a new direction.

"Deku might have commanded us to keep Bulwark occupied but... There are somethings we are supposed to understand and continue on our own." Shiozaki said as she rushed out of Monoma's sight and into an underpass. For a moment, Monoma stood there with a blank face. And after a few moments, he smirked, nodded and turned towards the underpass Todoroki was hiding in.

"So, code blue it is then." Monoma said as he cracked his knuckles. Not so later, two voices interrupted him.

"Larceny!" Monoma turned around to see his team's Jirou and Kaibara coming towards him. The two came to a halt when the reached near their blonde lieutenant.

"Mezzo, Armature, we have a Todoroki and an objective situation to take care of." Monoma stated and the other two nodded in reply.

~O~

Shiozaki was running through and observing the tunnels of the underpasses when she came across who she was looking for. Hitoshi Shinsou. Just as she came, the first thing she spotted was Tsunotori's horns dangerously close to Shinsou. She quickly stepped in the battle and erupted her green vines from her head and made a protective shield covering Shinsou before the horns got any closer.

With this move, Shinsou was wrapped in vines but not trapped in them. He tried to say something but his voice was muffled by all the vines around him. The horns, on the other hand, stuck in the thick vine covering, away from Shinsou.

Tsunotori gasped as she saw Shiozaki leaping in the battle and disabling her attack. She huffed and aimed with her head to attack her classmate this time which also proved to be useless as Shiozaki created another thick covering of green vines but this time around herself.

"Waah!! It's no use! She'll keep blocking my attacks!!" Tsunotori exclaimed as she took a step back. But then Bondo decided to step in.

"You take care of Ojiro! I'll take on 'em!!!" Bondo exclaimed and Tsunotori nodded. The foreign girl then turned to the other side where Ojiro was and both of them decided to take a route out of there. Meanwhile Bondo decided to stay and take care of the two Villains hiding in the vines.

"Alright then..." Bondo inhaled and exhaled deeply before picking up his fighting stance again.

"You sure about this, Bondo?" A familiar little feminine voice asked.

"Sure as hell, Tsunotori." Bondo replied with a grin as he pumped his fists together. And then he couldn't recall when in his life his head was benumbed that bad.

~O~

"This way!!" Tsunotori exclaimed as she and Ojiro rushed into a tunnel which was brighter compared to the many in those connected underpasses. Subsequently, they saw rays of sunlight entering from the end of the tunnel, symbolizing the end of underpasses.

"Wait!" Ojiro gasped as the duo saw Todoroki stealthily hiding near the end of the underpass.

"Todoroki?! What are you doing here?" Ojiro asked as both him and Tsunotori stopped to a halt when they reached Todoroki who quietly turned to them.

"Shh! Didn't you hear what Present Mic just said? Monoma has Mr. Aizawa's quirk. We have to be careful." Todoroki said as he turned his head to get a peek of the situation outside. He saw Monoma with Jirou and Kaibara, standing in a distance. Looked like they were planning something. Only if Todoroki knew they already had the plans for everything.

"Looks like Shiozaki is gone." Todoroki said as he turned to the other two.

"Shiozaki? She was attacking us with Shinsou just right now!" Tsunotori exclaimed.

"Hm. Where's Bondo?" Todoroki nodded and asked as they all turned to a shadowy corner in the tunnel.

"He's holding the two for us. Hopefully nothing bad will happen." Ojiro said as he looked at his clenched fist.

"Don't worry. Bondo's quirk can help him to hold them off pretty good." Tsunotori smiled.

"If that's so..." Todoroki said as he stood up, followed by Tsunotori and Ojiro. "We gotta defeat these three here." He said and then the trio walked out of the tunnel.

~O~

A few minutes earlier with our Villains; Monoma, Jirou and Kaibara. They just decided that Jirou here will track the objective's electric and or heat waves' nearly inaudible sound and then she will secure the objective. Meanwhile, Monoma and Kaibara will deal with other nuisances. Other nuisances such as the Team Heroes. And with everything prepared, they saw three Heroes; Todoroki, Tsunotori and Ojiro, coming out of the underpass.

"Here. We. Go." Monoma said with his signature taunting smile and all of the three Villains took their steps. Monoma to the the front, straight on towards the Heroes. Jirou disappeared to the left, in order to locate the objective. Kaibara to the right, to assist Monoma deal with the Hero nuisances. While the Heroes rushed forward to engage in the battle.

Kaibara turned on his quirk, making his right arm rotate as fast as possible and attacked Ojiro who once again used his muscular tail to block the attack. But this time the attack was a little more powerful and painful than what his tail was used to. He didn't know before but now he realized that...

'It hurts more than an electric drill!' Ojiro thought as he grunted but didn't stop fighting with what he could.

Todoroki saw that Monoma was no longer using the Erasure quirk. And, unfortunately, he lost the track of how long he used it. He didn't know if Monoma still had it. Regardless, he erupted a huge ice berg towards Monoma who stood in the way smiling before clearing his throat and yelling out.

"CRASH!!!!!!!!" Monoma yelled at top of his lungs as a giant and solid onomatopoeia of the word erupted out and crashed into the ice, breaking it and shattering it to pieces which flew everywhere. Todoroki was taken a back when he heard Tsunotori saying something about Monoma copying Fukidashi's quirk; Comic. This feat went on for a few more times where Todoroki uses ice to attack and Monoma uses solid giant onomatopoeiae to easily disable his attack. In a few moments, the entire place was surrounded by shattered ice and wrecked onomatopoeiae and some smoke and dust from the broken walls and roads of the area. This fight also made it difficult for the other students to concentrate on their own challenges.

As the smoke cleared, Todoroki couldn't see Monoma in front of him but he was standing far away to the left, smiling as he pointed at the tunnel Todoroki was recently hiding in. Todoroki turned around on instinct and was met with vines going to his left and vines going to his right but none to him. And from the tunnel came Shinsou and Shiozaki.

~O~

Fortune listens to no one. But Tsunotori escaped the vines and spotted Jirou moving towards the, supposedly, third objective.

"Not so fast there!!!" She yelled and ran on all her fours towards Jirou who saw her and stuck her earphone jacks in the white devices on her hands. Then she punched the ground with both of her fists, making an earth quake out of the vibration of her heartbeat. This made Tsunotori lose her balance and she yelled out on instinct. Jirou, on the other hand, rushed towards the objective which was now in her sight.

~O~

"TODOROKI!!!"

The yell startled Todoroki who turned to the left to look at what was wrong with the foreign girl.

"Tsunotori, where—?!!!" Todoroki was never able to complete his sentence as his mind filled with fog.

'Thanks... Shiozaki,' Monoma thought.

Jirou swiped the green card up the blue objective.

Ojiro was stuck in the green vines.

Kaibara eliminated Ojiro by shooting him.

'For the big picture.'
