I, with no quirk, become a hero!

Midoriya remained silent after hearing this. The man in front of him, called "Hero Killer" Stein, made Midoriya feel very strange. He was completely different from the enemies he had encountered before... He was like a fanatical religious believer who was willing to die for his beliefs at any time.

72. Professional Hero

"First of all, I don't need your approval!"

"Secondly, why do you target professional heroes?"

Following the words of the "Hero Killer" Stein, Izuku Midoriya wanted to know the criminal motive of the man in front of him. Why did he want to kill the hero?

The reason why enemies often appear in modern society is roughly because of the difference in the strength of "personality", coupled with the inequality encountered in life. People with dark revengeful intentions in their hearts will choose to use their "personality" to wreak havoc or seek benefits for themselves.

So far, there are very few enemies who would hunt professional heroes, because it does not benefit them at all.

Enemies who lack money will go for robbery, robbing banks or supermarkets, the two brothers "Li Shu" are examples of this.

People with brutal personalities who seek revenge on society will seek out the weak to kill. The Butcher is a good example of this. Even a brutal enemy like him will avoid professional heroes when they meet them because it will not benefit them in any way.

Enemies who kill professional heroes will only be wanted by the police and heroes. Apart from enemies with mental problems, Midoriya can't think of any enemies who only hunt professional heroes. And the "hero killer" Stein in front of him...

From the few words Midoriya talked to him, it was clear that this guy in front of him was not just looking for a hero to kill, but seemed to be acting in order to achieve a certain goal...

"Hunting heroes as targets?"

Hearing Midoriya's question, "Hero Killer" Stein said sarcastically:

"It's simple, just to eliminate the counterfeits!"

"what?!"

It was an unexpected answer, which made Midoriya so shocked that he didn't know what to think. What on earth did this guy in front of him mean?

"You should understand, kid, that most of the so-called heroes in society today are after money and fame..."

"Most of them are due to this kind of reason. I wonder how many people are just fakes who claim to be "heroes"!"

"A true hero must be someone like All Might who fights to save others!"

"Therefore, all those fake people in society who claim to be heroes must be purged!"

"Hero Killer" Stein's words left Midoriya at a loss for words. In a way...Stein was right.

"The Butcher Incident", Midoriya still remembers what the enemy said to him. The professional hero deliberately let him escape because he was afraid of fighting for his life with him.

Professional heroes are a popular profession in modern society. Everyone aspires to be one, and it is also the best way to become famous and rich. Therefore, many people choose to be heroes for this purpose...

There are many professional heroes in society. For example, after the sports meeting, there were more than 4000 hero agencies that sent invitations to Todoroki Shoto, not to mention the less famous professional heroes in each city.

In modern society, the competition among professional heroes is very fierce, and the competition among peers is also inevitable for scandals between agencies. As a hero fan, Midoriya knows a lot about this kind of negative news.

The professional heroes in today’s society are indeed not pure. There are very few heroes like All Might who do this purely for the sake of saving others. Most of them are people who become heroes for money or fame… But, so what?

Is that the only reason?

Izuku Midoriya would never agree with that! He absolutely could not agree with the words of the "Hero Killer" Stein. This was a reason that was worse than shit. Just for this reason, 17 heroes were killed and 23 heroes could no longer continue their heroic activities.

Izuku Midoriya was angry for the first time in a long time. The "Hero Killer" Stein in front of him was more hateful than those enemies who hurt others for their own selfish desires.

Using such seemingly righteous reasons to do evil things is even more shameless than that of a villain, and it makes Midoriya want to vomit!

"Is this the reason you killed Ingenium and made him unable to continue his heroic activities?!"

"He is not a true hero and must be purged!"

"What a joke!!"

The "Gloves of Death" are ready to go, and Izuku Midoriya has decided that he must punish the bastard in front of him and arrest him today.

"My dream of becoming a hero is to protect other people's smiles!!"

The steel wire in Midoriya's hand shot directly at the Hero Killer, but Stein skillfully dodged sideways to avoid the sweep of the steel wire and at the same time threw the sharp blade in his hand at Midoriya.

The blade stopped in midair, and Midoriya used the steel wire in his other hand to wrap around the blade. The blade wrapped in the steel wire was thrown back towards the Hero Killer himself, while Midoriya continued angrily:

"Iida is a responsible class monitor, and a younger brother who idolizes his older brother, Ingenium, and dreams of becoming a hero!"

Before he finished speaking, the Hero Killer caught the blade that was thrown back to him, and at the same time lowered his head to avoid the steel wire that Midoriya attacked from above his head, and sprinted directly towards the black-haired boy in front of him.

"Whenever Iida-san talks about his brother, Ingenium, he always smiles. He is proud that his brother is an outstanding hero."

The "Storm King" transformed himself, dodging all the steel wires and rushing towards Midoriya. The heroic killer stabbed with his two-handed blades but missed. Midoriya climbed up the wall of the alley and flew off the ground, with the steel wire in his hand wrapping around Stein's neck.

"Because you killed Ingenium, Iida has lost his smile since his brother was injured. His most admired brother can no longer continue his heroic activities."

The Hero Killer dodged the steel wire that was wrapped around Midoriya's neck from above with an iron bridge. He instantly grabbed the cross dart hanging on his belt and swung it at Izuku Midoriya who was climbing on the wall.

At the same time, a bomb was thrown downwards at Midoriya. The collision between the bomb and the cross dart directly triggered the effect. The dense net composed of steel wires directly blocked all the cross darts and fell directly to the ground to capture Stein.

The falling speed of the steel wire net was still too slow, and the Hero Killer rolled sideways to escape the capture range of the steel wire net, while Izuku Midoriya also landed on the ground at the other end.

"Not only Ingenium, but also the heroes you killed, the professional heroes you tortured, their families will never be able to smile happily again!"

Midoriya turned around to face the "Hero Killer" Stein, who had just rolled from his side and readjusted his fighting stance.

Looking at the "Hero Killer" Stein in front of him, he killed professional heroes for the so-called bullshit reasons and harmed professional heroes who also had families and friends.

Even though the motives of many professional heroes are not pure, whether they are doing it for pay or for fame... at least they are protecting the people and doing good things, right?

In Midoriya's opinion, most of today's professional heroes are just like the police. Even if they receive compensation and seek fame for profit, they are truly respectable people. At least they have become heroes and the work they do is to help others!

However, Midoriya would never agree with the actions of the "hero killer" Stein in front of him. After all, he is just a fanatic who is obsessed with his own beliefs. He is more hateful than an enemy who is evil in nature!

"Count your sins and pay for them all!!"

73. Midoriya VS Stein

"You're awesome, kid!"

"........"

The heroic killer rolled awkwardly to avoid the steel wire net, and turned back to prepare to praise the black-haired boy, but Midoriya did not respond to him at all.

Steel wires crossed and extended from his five fingers. With his fighting stance ready, Midoriya stared at the "Hero Killer" Stein in front of him. The fight just now made him realize that the enemy in front of him was indeed very strong, and his physical skills alone were top-notch.

When it comes to close combat, Midoriya is fully qualified to make an assessment. Not to mention that he has been exercising since he was a child, and later learned martial arts techniques such as Bajiquan. Close combat is also Izuku's strong point.

The most objective example is the U.A. Games. In the battle between Todoroki and Midoriya, Todoroki dared not let Midoriya get close to him no matter what. Once Midoriya got close to him, he would be knocked down in less than a second.

Now facing the "Hero Killer" Stein in front of him, although Midoriya was very angry about his behavior, he did not rush forward blindly. Instead, he carefully analyzed the enemy.

Midoriya considered his own disadvantages. He had stood out in the sports meet, and his fighting methods and style were widely known. The Hero Killer knew that he had no Quirk and fought solely with the help of his equipment.

As for the hero killer in front of him, he didn't know what his "personality" was, but Midoriya quickly analyzed his equipment: sharp blades, cross darts, strong close combat ability...this series of obvious features immediately gave the answer.

Midoriya's brain was thinking rapidly, and the conclusion he came to from the various knowledge and information he recorded was that the hero killer's personality might be related to the wounds inflicted on people.

Wounds that cannot heal?

Bleeding doesn't stop?

Or is it simply a poison that can cause instant death if cut?

It is impossible to know the specific personality of "Hero Killer" Stein, but Midoriya obviously understands one thing: he must not let his blade cut him.

In this case, use ranged attacks to capture the hero killer.

Midoriya quietly reached behind his back and took out a small white ball from the tool bag. While holding it in his hand, he buried the steel wire of the glove into the gap reserved for the ball.

"Thank you for your inspiration, Mineta-san."

Mineta Minoru from Class A of the Hero Department, nicknamed "Colored Grapes", has a quirk that is the small black ball on his head, which has both super stickiness and elasticity.

Another tool developed and manufactured by Midoriya based on his Quirk. It has abilities similar to the Colorful Grape Quirk, but its stickiness is not as strong as the original.

After the steel wire was buried in the white ball, Midoriya stared at the hero killer in front of him. He was almost about to make his move again.

Midoriya threw the ball with all his might in the right direction, and the small white ball shot directly towards the Hero Killer. The steel wire on the glove also extended along the trajectory of the ball.

"This kind of trick?"

The result was obvious. The "Hero Killer" Stein felt that he was being underestimated. He blocked the sharp blade in his hand and the white ball was directly bounced away.

"wrong!?"

However, Stein discovered that something was wrong at this time. The sharp blade in his hand was connected by a steel wire. At the same time, the white ball hit the wall and bounced back to the ground behind Stein, and bounced for the third time.

The alley was not too wide, and the white ball hit the other side of the wall directly, starting its fourth bounce.

At the same time, Midoriya on the other side anticipated the action one step ahead, and the steel wire in his other hand was ready to go.

The fourth time it bounced back, the white ball shrunk to a tiny size and bounced off the wall at the other end directly in front of the "Hero Killer".

When the white ball was still suspended in the air before it hit the ground, the steel wire that Izuku Midoriya had been ready to launch had already been ejected, wrapping around and connecting to the rear end of the white ball that had not yet hit the ground. It was the extended steel wire.

The action was completed in an instant. In about two seconds, Izuku Midoriya, who was entangled by the steel wire, pulled it back with great force. The sharp blade in the hero killer's hand broke free, and the steel wire stuck to the wall fell off and was recovered. It suddenly became the size of a person like a lasso, and directly trapped Stein in it.

"Simple geometry!"

Izuku Midoriya's white ball is so sticky that it can be torn off with a little force, so he thought about it and created the prop. The white ball has four layers of shells, and every time it bounces back, it will leave a layer of sticky shell in the original place, together with the steel wire.

A small white ball that has the ability to bounce four times and leave a steel line in its place. Midoriya is thinking about making an auxiliary prop for fighting in a narrow space.

The "Hero Killer" Stein was tightly caught by the rapidly retracted steel wire, and Izuku Midoriya unexpectedly captured him in an instant.

"Don't move, or you can't blame me if you get hurt!"

The steel wire tied tightly around Stein's body, and the sharp blade in his hand just now were pressed against his chest. If he tried to struggle, he would most likely be cut by his own weapon.

"An excellent boy, but too young!"

"What!?"

The steel wire broke, and the steel wire that Midoriya was pulling quickly broke off from the "Hero Killer" and fell off. Stein took this opportunity to launch a fierce attack on Midoriya, and the weapons of attack were the two short blades he held in his arms.

Stein was not blind. He noticed something was wrong the first time he saw the steel wire connected to his weapon. Although Midoriya's movements were very fast and it only took two seconds for the white ball to rebound and connect with the steel wire, this was enough time for Stein to respond.

In addition to the long-handled sharp blade that he usually uses, the "Hero Killer" Stein also has a spare short blade on his waist. When Midoriya was retrieving the steel wire, Stein held the short blade in each hand.

When the steel wire tightly bound Stein, his hands were crossed together like a pair of scissors. Although Midoriya's steel wire was tough, it broke and collapsed in front of the scissors formed by the two sharp blades.

The situation changed drastically in an instant. Although Midoriya was panicked, he did not lose his composure. He rushed directly towards the "Hero Killer" Stein.

Turning around and retreating is a fool's act. The enemy will directly throw weapons to attack the back. It will be too late to retract and release the steel wire of the gloves, and you cannot use "King of Storm" to launch a fatal attack. So just attack at close range!

The two men met in an instant, and the "Hero Killer" Stan aimed the sharp blade of his right hand directly at Midoriya, but was blocked, or rather, entangled!

Although the steel wire of the glove could not be recovered, Midoriya also made excellent use of the net woven by the steel wires. The short blade in Stein's right hand was directly entangled by the steel wire net and could not stab himself.

But this was just one hand. Stein held the sharp blade in his left hand and aimed it directly at Midoriya's abdomen, cutting it swiftly and fiercely into the vital point.

However, it was still blocked...Midoriya struck down with his right elbow and kicked up with his knee at the same time, directly clamping down on Stein's close-range fatal attack.

For a moment of surprise, the "Hero Killer" Stan did not expect that the black-haired boy in front of him was so good at close combat. This moment of distraction was seized by Midoriya to counterattack.

"Bajiquan: Towards the Hammer"

Although Midoriya is proficient in the Iron Mountain Kung Fu, it does not mean that he has not learned other moves of Bajiquan. It can only be said that the power is definitely not as strong as the special skills.

Using his knee to clamp the short blade's right elbow, Midoriya used his right fist to swing and hit the "Hero Killer" Stein's chest. Although the power of this punch was not great, it still knocked him back several steps. Midoriya also took this opportunity to widen the distance between them.

Holding his chest, the "Hero Killer" Stein was feeling a dull pain. He stared at Midoriya in front of him and said slowly:

"Boy, I take it back, you are not naive at all!"

74. Personality "Blood Coagulation"

What is the personality of "Hero Killer" Stein?

Izuku Midoriya was thinking desperately during the short fight. The action of the guy opposite him was undoubtedly an attempt to inflict a wound on him, and the sharp blade weapon he was carrying could prove this point.

At the same time, Midoriya thought of the professional hero who was rescued by Tenya Iida. He was leaning against the wall and unable to move, but there were no obvious signs of serious injuries on his body.

"Is it a quirk that renders a person unable to move when they have a wound on their body?"

Midoriya roughly thought of this, and at the same time became more vigilant not to be injured by the "Hero Killer". Perhaps a small wound on his body would end this battle.
