A Hero's Assassination Academia

Smoke

"I wish Karma was here. He'd make things a lot more interesting. Arson maybe?" Itona sighed, finishing his 70th knockout of a student.

"Honestly, you're right. This is kind of boring...." Nagisa kicked the floor after taking out his 52th victi- excuse me, opponent. "Didn't you go a bit overboard though?"

"Nothing's overboard if they don't give you a limit."

"Easy for you, difficult for me. My skills aren't suited for this kind of thing...." Kayano complained, having only got around 20 people within the first fifteen minutes. 

"Still, how many students are there? It feels like a lot!" Rio pulled up her goggles, careful not to get the dust in her eye from all the artillery she was using. 

"Nice job on your 36th win! Oh, and I've detected several metal chips in the majority of the students. They're not people, they seem more like mechanical robot-doll things. I think the teachers wanted to keep the injured people by you to a minimum." Ritsu declared from the drone she was flying around in, designed by Itona himself. 

"Makes sense." Kayano nodded.

"You didn't notice before? Idiot." Itona looked blankly at her.

"You knew?!"

"B***** it was obvious as hell."

"How exactly!?" Nagisa, Rio and Kayano were baffled. 

"Anyways, you have five more minutes left. With your wins, I think you guys are fine to pass. Nagisa, you might want some of your injuries healed though...." Ritsu looked at his bashed arm, with blood clearly flowing out.

"Oh...uh...right. Kayano?"

"I gotcha Nagisa!" 

==================

"So.....did you all pass?" Karasuma raised his eyebrows at his students who'd just gotten back to the dorms. 

"About that......." Nagisa rubbed the back of his head. "Itona was called out for being too brutal, and the rest of us had a warning to not attempt to break the chips inside those robot things..."

"I guess it can't be helped. Arghhhhh....this is the eighth report I've had to write this year to save you guys from being shipped away to prison."  Karasuma's entire figure turned white with disappointment.

"You signed up for the job, you kinda gotta do it." Rio smirked. 

"No, I signed up for a professional military training job that includes general work in monitoring bases, and what do I get? Junior high students who can't keep themselves in line even if it meant their life." Karasuma refuted. 

"Technically we passed though, I hear Bakugo didn't." Kayano said. 

Karasuma shook his head and handed them a folder. "Take a look at this. It's going to be your first 'job' since Mr. Hansa wants to test you guys. You're just going to track the Project R.E.D.'s lower team."

"Can we fight them?"

"Itona, why is that the first thing on your mind?"

"Well, can we Karasuma?"

Karasuma sighed at the silver haired boy. "Alright, if the situation calls for it. Otherwise, don't get caught, and don't die. By the way, students will be visiting your class next week, so get back by then. I'm leaving now, bye." 

And with that, he left the building without another word. 

"Do we seriously have to look at the folders?" Rio flipped through the pages. 

"Sometimes I wish I could have Karma's memorizing skills. They would be really helpful right now. Let's just do this, might as well look through this a bit." Nagisa led them to his dorm. 

==============

"Uh, you good? Do you have a cold?" Todoroki looked at his friend. 

"Just sneezed, nothing much. Anyways, how's the plan coming along?" Karma rubbed his nose. 

"Which one?"

"The one to buy all the strawberry milk, duh." Karma answered in the most sarcastic way. "DUDE DON'T FREEZE ME! IT'S F******** COLD!" He yelped as Todoroki smiled, slowly but painfully retreating the ice. 

"Both of you, be quiet." Shigaraki hissed. 

A man stepped into the hideout, wearing a strange mask. 

"Who are you?" Shigaraki asked. 

"Overhaul. Hm. I'm not impressed with this hideout of yours to be honest, especially with the fact that you're carrying two students with you. A shame, not fit for people of-"

"Just cut to what you want. Keep it simple." Todoroki interrupted, calm and unfazed. 

'Does he not feel the aura from this guy?' Toga shivered. 

"Overhaul comes from an era where the underworld was run by many organizations, but after the rise of All Might and heroes, they were wiped out, and the few that managed to survive were kept under constant surveillance, making it hard to do any profitable jobs." Mr. Compress explained. 

"Does that explain the weird Black Death mask?" Karma asked. 

"Ignoring the redhead, yes, Mr. Compress's assessment is quite accurate. Our generation was focused on the fall of All for One. Most of us treated him like an urban legend who ruled everything in the underworld, but now that he's gone, who'll take his position?" Overhaul asked. 

"I will. Gathering more members and combining their might, we'll eventually gain enough power to bring down the heroes." Tomura answered. 

"And how will you do that?"

Tomura looked confused. He expected that Overhaul came to join them and help them, but this question was not something he was prepared for. 

"An objective without a plan is a mere delusion. Even if you have gathered your strength, what will you do? You had so many good pawns in your hands, and you let it all go to waste. Disappointing." 

"Oh? Big talk! What's your idea then?" Karma's condescending tone was definitely proving Overhaul.

"In order to control the underworld, financial capital is needed, but it's hard for someone like me to find a proper investor. However, with you all, it wouldn't be an issue. Join me instead, and I'll show you the proper rule to controlling everything." Overhaul answered calmly. 

"Get out." Tomura pointed to the exit, doing his best not to lose his cool. 

Magne, on the other hand, was furious. 

"The League of Villains does not answer to anyone!" She screamed, using her quirk to bring the man towards her and hit him with a weapon. 

But the second Overhaul touched her arm, her body burst into a million pieces, scattered, and disappeared. 

"That's a cool quirk...." Todoroki admired. 

"People are coming, we should get outta here before we die." Karma said, pointing the the door. 

They managed to escape from the second exit without being noticed, thanks to the smoke in the room. Of course, they brought Toga along too. 

"Let's go find Dabi now! I'm sure we can start some chaos with him." Toga smiled.
