I, without any personality, become a hero!

Thus, Izuku Midoriya became Akira Hatsume's apprentice, learning from her the knowledge and skills of equipment manufacturing. Over time, Midoriya realized that this girl was undoubtedly a genius, and he deeply felt that he was not as talented as Akira Hatsume in equipment manufacturing.

But this is different! Akira's dream is simply to make the equipment he creates famous all over the world, while Midoriya wants to use the equipment to become a hero.

The effort that Izuku Midoriya has made is to create all sorts of auxiliary equipment and train for combat using these equipment!

In the seaside park, not only is there no one to disturb him, but it is also a treasure trove of materials that can be found everywhere. Therefore, after a long period of effort, Midoriya Izuku built a secret base for himself in the seaside park, which contains all kinds of equipment that he has made over the years.

If you don't understand something, ask Famu Ming. Learn more about the fighting styles of professional heroes, gain experience and skills from them, and then use equipment to recreate and imitate the heroes. That's how it works.

Izuku Midoriya knew he wasn't a genius; his Quirk wasn't as good as Katsuki Bakugo's, and his talent wasn't as good as Akira Hata's. All he could rely on was hard work!

He practiced countless times, sometimes making mistakes that left him bleeding from head wounds, and sometimes his equipment malfunctioning that left him covered in injuries, but Midoriya persevered through it all.

Perhaps their initial intentions were different, but what his mother, Ino, said was right. The knowledge he gained made it easier for Midoriya to teach Hidden Eyes, and the strong physique he developed from a young age enabled him to carry out the next step of brutal training.

At this point, Izuku Midoriya had found his goal.

What kind of hero do you want to become in the future? Perhaps Izuku Midoriya didn't have the answer before, but he can tell you now!

"I want to become an all-around hero in the future!!"

Chapter 3 Equipment and Item Design

Izuku Midoriya is "Quirkless," a fact he knows better than anyone else. But aside from his "Quirk," everyone else is no different from him, and he is even a bit smarter and stronger due to long-term training.

Now he has something to make up for his "personality". Under the guidance of Akira, Izuku can also make some practical tools. After a long period of hard work, he can only put himself on the same starting line as others. The effort and reward are not proportional at all.

But Izuku Midoriya was still very happy, at least for now! He had the basics to become a hero!

"So that's the next target!!"

Izuku Midoriya's goal remains unwavering: U.A. High School.

U.A. High School can be considered the most famous hero school in Japan. It is the alma mater of All Might, the No.1 hero. Anyone who admires All Might and wants to become a hero will choose to study at U.A. High School without hesitation.

Therefore, the entrance exam for U.A. High School is so difficult that it eliminates 90% of applicants each year, and those who manage to get in are the elite of the elite.

Izuku Midoriya's goal three years from now is naturally U.A. High School. Although he is only just graduating from junior high school, he is already planning to take the entrance exam for U.A. High School.

He's only just reached the starting line with his classmates now, so Midoriya doesn't dare to stop at all; he has to work even harder.

In the days that followed, Izuku Midoriya continued his intense training and studies. The knowledge required to research and create equipment and tools was immense, and Midoriya spent most of his time absorbing knowledge. The benefit of this was that his academic performance was always perfect, which made his teachers look at him with new respect.

After school every day, he has to do two hours of physical training. To be able to use the equipment and props effectively, he needs to have a strong physique.

----------------------

"It still doesn't work..."

Izuku Midoriya scratched his seaweed-like hair in exasperation. He was currently in his secret base at the seaside park, racking his brains over the current problem!

"Little Green Valley, can't the baby meet your requirements?"

Through a communication device, Midoriya is talking to Akira about the problem he is currently facing. It is a gadget that Izuku asked this genius girl, Akira, to make for him. The current thorny problem has forced Midoriya to ask Akira for help.

"The 'spider glove' has the required climbing function, but its web-spinning mechanism is prone to malfunction!"

Izuku Midoriya's own skills were insufficient, so he commissioned Akira Hata to manufacture equipment, a pair of gloves modeled after the professional hero "Spider-Man," which, according to Midoriya's wishes, had the functions of climbing walls and shooting sticky webs!

“Little Midoriya…” The pink-haired girl sighed from the communicator. Akira Hatsume said helplessly, “The ‘Spider-Man’ relies on his Quirk. Leaving aside the fact that special materials are needed to make the webs, even if I had the materials, I don’t have the technology to manufacture that kind of high-tech equipment!”

"Feel sorry........"

Apologize to Akira, Midoriya Izuku knew he was asking too much; there's no such thing as an ideal world!

"But Midoriya, why do you want to imitate 'Spider-Man'?" Akira asked curiously. There are so many famous professional heroes in the country now, and when it comes to "Quirks", they are all kinds of strange and wonderful. Although "Spider-Man" is famous, he is not a particularly outstanding hero.

"Because besides All Might, Spider-Man is also one of my favorite heroes, and his Quirk is very versatile, able to perform very well in various situations, so I wanted to start with that!"

"I see..." Akira thought for a moment, then she had a good idea and said it directly to Izuku!

"Little Midoriya, why don't you try combining the characteristics of several professional heroes?"

"well!!?"

The idea suddenly proposed by Akira caught Izuku Midoriya off guard, but at the same time, his mind started to open up! Usually, because he admired those professional heroes too much, Izuku treated them as separate entities, but now, by using the fighting methods of professional heroes to develop equipment and items, he could do whatever he wanted!

"Thank you, Akira! You're a genius!"

"Hehe, he's a genius after all!!"

Having gained new inspiration, Izuku Midoriya began sketching in his secret base. How should he design his equipment and props? He would design everything according to the best.

Eliminate all impractical functions, pre-store and retain feasible functions, and manufacture essential functions first!

"How about it, Fa Muming! Is it any good?"

After spending most of the day sending his completed draft to Hatsume Akira, Midoriya nervously asked the inventor girl, "When it comes to manufacturing technology, we still have to rely on this genius girl."

"Although some difficulties may seem insurmountable, difficulties are meant to be overcome!"

"I'm sure this will be a wonderful baby!!" This was Akira's reply to Midoriya. Clearly, the design had piqued her interest, and she was ready to take care of it.

"Great!"

I really owe Akira a lot of favors, Midoriya thought with some shame, but that's precisely why I need to work even harder to become a hero.

You see, Izuku had promised this genius inventor girl that when he became a hero, he would help her advertise and make her equipment a global sensation.

Time always flies by. While Famei was helping Midoriya develop equipment, he himself didn't slack off either, maintaining his physical fitness while also honing his skills.

At Oriji Middle School, during break time, Izuku Midoriya squatted on his seat, his hands inside the desk playing cat's cradle. Of course, he wasn't just playing around; Izuku was practicing his cat's cradle skills.

His hands moved swiftly, and the string in his hands transformed into all sorts of things, such as flowers, birds, nets, and rabbits. It's no exaggeration to say that if there were a string-catcher competition, Izuku Midoriya would definitely be the champion.

"Hey, Deku! What are you doing all by yourself?!"

While Izuku Midoriya was diligently carrying out his daily training, trouble found him. Katsuki Bakugo, still sporting an arrogant expression, walked straight up to Izuku and slammed his fist hard on his desk.

It seems he also used some of his "explosive" quirks, the loud noise almost causing Izuku Midoriya to fall flat on his face, and his bench is still tilting backward.

In order to steady himself, Midoriya unconsciously reached out and grabbed the table, while the hidden flower rope was also hanging from his hands!

"Hey, you good-for-nothing, are you still a child? You're secretly playing with this kind of thing by yourself!!"

With his hidden secrets exposed, Bakugo Katsumi, without thinking, immediately launched into a sarcastic remark. The other classmates seemed to follow suit, joining Bakugo in loudly mocking him, making Midoriya Izuku the laughingstock.

Despite this, Izuku Midoriya wasn't angry. He was used to Katsuki Bakugo's behavior and still acted cowardly, shrinking into his seat without saying a word.

"Deku! Say something! Are you even a man?!"

Bakugo went even further, loudly mocking Midoriya and completely pushing him into an awkward situation, but Izuku remained unmoved.

Other classmates probably think that Izuku Midoriya is so timid because he is afraid of Katsuki Bakugo; perhaps Bakugo himself thinks so too, but only Izuku himself knows the truth.

"It's all meaningless!"

Wasting time and energy on fighting with Bakugo is pointless; it's just childish bickering. Izuku is striving to become a hero.

Izuku Midoriya always remembered All Might's words: "A hero's time is very precious!"

Chapter 4 Accident

Time flies. Izuku Midoriya is now a second-year junior high student at Oriji Middle School. Besides his more muscular physique, he's also grown a little taller... well, a tiny bit taller...

Izuku Midoriya has been having some troubles lately. Bakugo Katsumi seems to be targeting him for some reason. I've been trying very hard to avoid Bakugo, but for some reason, that guy keeps picking on me, and lately it's gotten a bit more and more outrageous. Besides the verbal sarcasm and targeting, Bakugo even deliberately stepped in during the last gym class, almost causing Izuku to fall and get injured.

Katsuki Bakugo's increasingly egregious behavior is giving Izuku Midoriya a real headache. But conflicts between classmates can't always be resolved with violence, and to be honest... Izuku is still quite afraid of Bakugo. He was beaten up so many times when he was a kid, it's impossible for him not to have any psychological trauma!

However, this couldn't go on forever, so Izuku finally took the initiative to act. After school, he didn't go directly to the secret base at the seaside park, but instead waited for Bakugo at the entrance.

After the students left the school one after another, Midoriya saw Bakugo Katsuki and several classmates walking out of the school gate, chatting and laughing.

"A narrow victory!"

"What is it, Deku!?"

At the school gate, Midoriya called out to Bakugo to stop. Bakugo, who had been chatting and laughing with others, stopped and saw that Izuku's expression had suddenly turned ugly. He replied in a very impolite tone.

"Why are they always targeting me at school?!"

Without much pretense, Izuku Midoriya directly asked the question he wanted to ask!

"Targeting you?" Midoriya's question made Bakugo's face even uglier, but he retorted sarcastically without any politeness, "Yes, that's right! I just don't like the look of you. You're just a piece of trash, yet you're so arrogant!!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Bakugo Katsu had already brushed past Midoriya, not wanting to say anything more to him. The other classmates quickly followed behind Bakugo, not daring to say anything more to Izuku!

"furious?"

Midoriya Izuku pondered, feeling utterly alienated from such a description. He was usually alone at school and rarely spoke to his classmates. How could he be called "arrogant"?

Unable to figure out the reason, Midoriya simply changed his approach. He looked at himself from Bakugo's perspective. First, he needed to understand what kind of person Bakugo Katsuki was. Izuku, who had grown up with him since childhood, understood this better than anyone!

Arrogant, conceited, and with an extremely strong sense of self-esteem, he couldn't stand anyone stronger than himself. As Midoriya thought about it, he suddenly understood!

"Could it be that this is what happened!?"

He recalled the final exams of the first year of junior high school. Izuku, who studied hard to become a hero, naturally had perfect scores in all subjects. Bakugo Katsuki, although not bad, was far inferior to Midoriya in terms of grades!

The class made a comparison between Bakugo and Midoriya. Izuku remembered that Bakugo seemed very angry at the time. Then, in the recent test and mock exam, Izuku still got full marks in all subjects, while Bakugo's grades improved a lot compared to before, but there was still a considerable gap between him and Izuku!

"It seems like that's when they started targeting me!"

Izuku suddenly realized that Bakugo's relentless personality meant he hated being compared to others, especially when the person being compared to him was better than him. Although Bakugo was also an excellent student, he felt very embarrassed to be compared to Midoriya!

Izuku Midoriya couldn't help but feel a little regretful. He hadn't paid much attention to hiding his academic performance, which had made him a target of Bakugo. Now, even if he gave fake grades, Bakugo would definitely think he was deliberately showing weakness, and he would become a thorn in Bakugo's side!

"What a hassle!"

Izuku decided to stop thinking about Bakugo; he had more things to do next!

--------------------------

On a weekend holiday, Izuku Midoriya walks down the street with ropes around his hands, performing a twirl of rope as he walks. The ropes change shape so quickly that passersby can't see them clearly.

"Screws, copper wire, miniature batteries..." He muttered to himself the materials he needed to buy. Although he could find many useful materials at the electrical appliance store in the seaside park, he was still missing some that he needed to purchase from the store.

However, it was also thanks to the electrical appliance junkyard at the seaside park that Midoriya was able to develop and manufacture equipment for himself, without so many readily available materials.

As he crossed a street intersection, Izuku suddenly heard an explosion, followed by screams from pedestrians, flames, black smoke, and chaos! The sudden turn of events put Midoriya on edge!

"What happened!?"

Seeing the pedestrians in front of him scattering backwards, Midoriya couldn't help but ask!

"Run! Enemies!!"

The kind pedestrian answered Midoriya, and then immediately took off running. This was no time to watch the spectacle!

"enemy!!?"

Looking at the streets exploding incessantly and the chaotic, screaming, and running crowds, Izuku Midoriya also felt a sense of fear!

In this hero society where the crime rate is high, enemies often use their "quirks" to commit crimes. In such cases, when professional heroes are not around, ordinary people are easily harmed!

At this moment! Izuku Midoriya understood what he had to do! As someone who aspired to become a hero, what he should do now was!

Turn around, back, and run! All in one smooth motion!!

"joke!"

Izuku Midoriya is currently a second-year junior high school student, a full-fledged 13-year-old junior high school student. How can he stop the enemy on his own?

Izuku isn't that stupid. Putting aside the fact that he's just a "quirkless" person, it would be idiotic for him to recklessly cause trouble and put himself in danger in this situation!

The right thing to do is to run away and wait for the professional heroes to arrive and solve the problem. Izuku Midoriya was absolutely certain of this!

As Midoriya fled with the crowd, the rampaging enemy finally revealed his true form: a giant werewolf three meters tall! With a single swipe of his claws, he overturned and sent cars flying. Seeing this, Izuku sped up his escape!

"Is this the enemy?! Does becoming a hero mean fighting monsters like this?!"

Izuku Midoriya was filled with fear. Was his desire to become a hero really realistic?

While pedestrians were desperately running away, some people were always left behind. When a mother was pulling her daughter away, she was jostled by the crowd and didn't realize that her daughter's hand had slipped from hers!

While the mother was anxiously searching, she discovered that her daughter had fallen to the ground behind the fleeing crowd and was now crying loudly!

"My daughter, my daughter!!"

As the mother cried out for her daughter, the rampaging enemy appeared behind her. A three-meter-tall giant werewolf stood behind the little girl, its red eyes filled with murderous intent!

"No, no! Hero, where is the hero! Please save my daughter!!"

The mother was desperate and could only place her hopes on the heroes. At that time, the professional heroes were still far away and had not arrived at all!
