Reborn As Saitama In MHA

Days turned to weeks, as weeks turned to months. Hiroto followed a simple schedule of just studying at home and going to watch Midoriya's training.

With that, the day of the entrance exam arrived. Already knowing that today was the day that Midoriya would receive the hair from All Might, Hiroto decided to just leave them be as he left his house.

Just as he left, he also saw Bakugo leaving his house just next to his.

"Oh, hey Katsuki. Are you ready for the exam?" Hiroto said casually as he walked past him. (A/N: Hiroto is basically on first-name basis with him now since they were forced to hang out over the past 10 months.)

Katsuki only clicked his tongue and said, "Whatever, weirdo. You better not slow me down." Katsuki then walked away with Hiroto not caring for his attitude.

Katsuki then asked Hiroto, "How come you never went to a proper school before this and was homeschooled instead? I know your mom is like, some sort of retired professor, but it's just weird."

Hiroto answered him, "I don't really mind it, my mother just thought that I would gain more from being taught by her than another teacher. Although I don't get to interact with too many people, I don't mind it and they don't as well."

Katsuki just scoffed and muttered, "Weirdo."

Walking in silence the duo arrived at the entrance of U.A. Highschool, where hundreds of different kids were walking through a gate. The whole entire campus was walled off, with the security wall having a nickname of the "U.A. Barrier."

In front of the two, Midoriya was shaking in excitement and anxiety as he slowly walked in.

Katsuki, seeing this, clicked his tongue and shouted, "Fuck off, Deku!!"

"Kacchan! And, Hiroto too!" Midoriya turned around and greeted them like a scared mouse, flailing his arms around.

"Don't stand in my way, or do you wanna fuċkɨnġ die?" Katsuki said with a nasty scowl on his face as he brushed past Midoriya.

Midoriya didn't get time to respond, just standing still and looking at Katsuki in confusion and relief.

"Hey, Izuku." Hiroto greeted, as he walked past and patted his shoulder

"Ah, hey Hiroto! Let's do our best!" Izuku shouted behind Hiroto towards him.

Hiroto just nodded and entered the hall behind Katsuki. Around them were hundreds of students as they watched the hero Present Mic give his welcoming speech.

Going through the entire speech and skipping some details, (Hiroto wasn't really paying attention), Hiroto was gathered at an area designated away from Katsuki and Izuku.

Currently, he was wearing the blue tracksuit that he always used when he was doing his training and workout.

'Hm, I can't wait till I finally get my outfit. Although I could've designed and made it myself… I have no idea how to actually make my own clothing.' Hiroto thought to himself, as he started to do some light stretches.

The other students who saw him were whispering to one another.

"Who is that guy?"

"He looks so weak, does he think he can actually pass this?"

"He's so bald. Hey, do you think he… polishes his head?"

Hiroto's mouth twitched when he heard that last comment.

'From what I remembered, this entrance exam is not just about beating the robots, but it's to also test your heroic spirit by getting rescue points. Guess I'll just run around punching things and helping people then.' Hiroto thought.

...

In a different room that was monitoring the situation, the examiners were currently viewing the prospective students that showed up on the screen. When they were shown Hiroto's figure, not many people had high hopes for him.

All Might was watching the screen intently, staring at Hiroto's figure as he was deep in thought. From the side, a mouse interrupted his thoughts.

"So, this is the boy you told me about? He doesn't seem as extraordinary as you made him out to be." A mouse with a scar on his right eye, Nezu said.

"You'll be in for a surprise. He's probably the only person here that I can count to have my back in a fight." All Might stated.

"Y-You're serious? He's only 15…" Nezu said with a thoughtful expression as he fell deep into thought.

"Looks can be quite unassuming. It will also give him the edge against villains in the future, with many of them underestimating him." All Might said, gaining a nod from Nezu as the screen changed to show Izuku standing still in the middle of the group, shaking constantly.

All Might just sighed to himself.

...

"Hey! You're off over here all by yourself, so I thought you would like some company!"

Turning around, Hiroto remembered who the girl was from the show, Mina Ashido wearing a tracksuit. She was of medium height, but the most notable feature is her skin being a light shade of pink alongside her short pink unruly hair with two thin pale yellow horns protruding from her head.

"Wow, it's so shiny." Mina said, staring at Hiroto's head, who received critical damage.

Shaking his head, he said, "I don't mind the company, although this is an exam. I'm Hiroto Moriyama. You can just call me Hiroto."

"Nice to meet you, I'm Mina Ashido! You can just call me Mina!"

Mina was done with her workout and was preparing for the exam as she started to get more excited the longer she had to wait. "Well, are you also excited for the exam?"

"Hm, I guess?" Hiroto simply stated with a thoughtful expression.

"Aw, come on! We get to run around and beat robots! What else beats this?" Mina said, hopping around Hiroto and punching the air.

"Well, games." Hiroto said.

Mina thought to herself and said, "Well, it could be true. I could go for some dancing right now."

Before they could continue their conversation, a loud announcement interrupted everyone.

"Aaaaaan Start!!... What's the matter?! There's no such thing as a countdown in a real battle! Run! Ruuun!! Consider the baton tossed!"

Hearing this, everyone started to run towards the replica city at their fastest. Mina gave one last wave to Hiroto as she also ran off, leaving Hiroto standing there.

Narrowing his eyes, Hiroto for the first time in a long while adopted his serious face, revealing his sharp facial features with fearsome eyes and his body taking on a chiseled figure, pressing against his tracksuit.

His posture changed to a straightened posture with squared shoulders, showing off his confidence.

"Alright, I need to make sure I get admitted. Let's get just a bit serious." Hiroto said, as he then ran off, completely disappearing from his position.

...

From the observation room, those that saw Hiroto's change revealed shocked faces, including All Might, since this is the first time he actually saw Hiroto being so serious.

"H...He just disappeared…" Examiner A muttered. "Where did he go?"

"There! He just took down 8 hard villains in an instant! Wait, he's disappeared again, where is he now?" Examiner B shouted out.

Examiner C read his file again and said, "His quirk here is listed as a strength quirk, but this is just..."

Examiner D, "His speed and strength are both incredible…"

All Might just stood there, watching both Izuku and Hiroto's performance. 'Hiroto… Just how strong are you?'

...

Back to Hiroto, after having destroyed another hard villain category villain bot, Hiroto began looking for people to help rescue instead.

His appearance changed to that of his usual simplified one, compared to his previous serious appearance. Leaving the area that he was in, dozens of destroyed robots were stacked on top of one another, surely waiting to shock students when they came across it.

Bending his legs, Hiroto launched himself up into the sky high above the city and scanned the area.

"Hmm, there's more people over there, so there should be more chances for me to gain some rescue points." Hiroto spoke to himself, as he fell back down to the ground and started to 'jog' towards that direction, leaving a gobsmacked audience of examiners.

*BOOM BOOM*

Looking up at it, Hiroto stood still in the middle of the street, with the giant robot looming over him. Off to the side, Mina caught a glimpse of him and wanted to warm him but was preoccupied when a robot started to attack her.

Looking up at the robot, Hiroto said to himself, "This robot doesn't give any points. However… I do want to test how strong it is."

The examiners were stunned, as they began to talk amongst themselves, questioning if he was actually going to fight the large contraption since there was no merit to doing so.

The robot trailed towards Hiroto and swung it's giant metallic claw down towards him.

*BOOOOM*

A deafening sound rang throughout the city the moment robot's claw smashed into the ground where Hiroto stood, causing it to instantly explode into thousands of pieces, scattering across the entire street.

"This… I-Is he…" One of the students stuttered, thinking that he just saw a student get crushed.

"Wow, this reminds me of Pacific Rim." Hiroto's voice entered everyone's ear, as everyone craned their heads up at the robot's head, where the source of the voice came from.

On the very top of the head stood Hiroto as he was lightly tapping the metal of the robotic head, as though to check its toughness. Raising his fist, he drove in straight down, causing the huge robot to shudder as a huge shockwave drove through from the top of his body straight into the ground, causing it to internally exploded and collapse.

Jumping down from the robot's head, Hiroto landed on the ground and swatted the dust off of him, complaining, "The smell of oil is gonna be hard to get rid of. *sigh* Mom's gonna be pissed."

Everyone just stood still, not knowing how to react after seeing that display. The examiners included didn't speak whatsoever.

Present Mike almost forgot to speak, as he shouted, "The Test is over!!!!"

Hiroto simply shook his head and sighed, thinking to himself. 'Well what did I expect, this is One Punch Man's power after all. Oh well, not that I mind it, since I'm not as battle-hungry as the original Saitama was.'

With that, the exam came to an end, as Hiroto left the city under everyone's dumbfounded gaze.. Mina was the only one who was smiling brightly at Hiroto's display, being ever so cheerful.
