I, without any personality, become a hero!

"Wrecking Ball...that's a very fitting name."

Seeing All Might's interest in his manufactured machinery, Izuku Midoriya launched into an even more detailed and lengthy explanation.

"The design of 'Wrecking Ball' is actually quite simple. The outer layer is armor that offers strong resistance to various 'quirks,' and of course, it's 30 centimeters thick, making its weight quite astonishing."

"The Wrecking Ball's attack method is relatively simple. I learned the Gravity Propulsion Device from Akagaya-sensei and used it as its core. It uses a grappling hook to lock onto the target's position and generate an inertial impact to smash into the opponent. Combined with its incredible weight, it can produce a battering ram-like effect."

..........

As All Might listened to Izuku Midoriya's detailed introduction, he became more and more frightened. How come this kid has completely changed his art style after studying with Kaiu Akaya for a period of time? Will he become a scientist who invents and manufactures large-scale weapons of mass destruction in the future?

The author's words:

This actually uses the Overwatch hero "Wrecking Ball," a simple, violent, and fun ball that delivers exhilarating joy that you deserve!

Chapter 17 Invincible Happy Ball

"Yahahahah!!"

The scenes in the four large exam halls are basically the same, just like what Bakugo encountered, with "Wrecking Balls" rampaging all over the place, chasing and crushing a group of test takers who were running around in all directions.

"What the hell is this?!"

Mineta Minoru, who came to U.A. High School to take the entrance exam, burst into tears. Hearing the other examinees exclaim about the appearance of their imaginary rival who scored 100 points, he originally thought he would go over to see if he could take advantage of the situation. However, of the four people who ran over first, he was the only one left alive.

The unstoppable "Wrecking Ball" sent the candidates who approached it flying far away. Mineta Minoru survived by using his Grape Ball as a cushion at the critical moment. The fate of the other three is unknown, but this 100-point imaginary enemy has already locked onto Mineta Minoru.

"Damn it! Why can't it stick?!"

The sticky ball, which is usually invincible, can successfully deal with other mechanical imaginary enemies, but this 100-point imaginary enemy completely ignores Mineta Minoru's "personality" and comes over in a mighty, crushing manner.

"Aaaaaah! Help!!"

Tears streaming down his face, Mineta could only run for his life. If this thing caught up with him, he'd probably be crushed into a raisin.

As for why the "Quirk" of a certain grape was ineffective, Izuku Midoriya had actually considered factors such as stickiness, spider webs, and freezing, which caused stagnation and obstruction. The spherical design was for this reason. The smooth surface without sharp edges can greatly reduce friction. The "ball" type of object appears in many sports because the "ball" is the best form of movement. Perhaps the same principle applies to the "Earth," the planet we live on that never stops moving.

The Wrecking Ball possesses powerful propulsion, and can generally overcome obstacles far exceeding its weight through rotation. Therefore, most sticky obstacles are difficult for the Wrecking Ball to stop.

Furthermore, if Mineta Minoru's sticky grapes were used on people, the effect might be very good. After all, if too much force is used, it will tear off clothes and skin, and psychologically, the person with the sticky grapes would not dare to break free too forcefully.

The "Wrecking Ball" they were facing now not only had a steel alloy surface, but its thickness was also a staggering 30 centimeters, making it impossible to conduct electricity through it. So now...

"Aaaaaah! Help!!"

The same situation occurred in another exam room. Kaminari Denki thought that his "power generation" Quirk would be a simple matter to deal with mechanical imaginary enemies. However, after the 100-point imaginary enemy became immune to lightning, this poor kid was also hunted down.

Obviously, no one would come to his rescue. After the 100-point imaginary enemy appeared, all the nearby test takers had the idea of ​​taking a chance. However, a bunch of "quirk" attacks hit the Wrecking Ball without damaging it. Instead, they knocked down and eliminated several people on the spot. So now the test takers have learned their lesson and don't dare to act rashly.

Seeing this situation, Kaminari was extremely anxious. He was being chased by the 100-point imaginary enemy behind him and dared not stop, let alone eliminate some low-point imaginary enemies to earn points. Thinking of the importance of the U.A. High School entrance exam, Kaminari Denki gritted his teeth and directly shifted the blame to another party.

"Damn it! Don't come any closer!!"

Seeing that the electrical kid had pulled the 100-point imaginary enemy to their side, a group of test takers were so angry they wanted to curse. And because there were N test takers within range, Wrecking Ball also canceled its single-target lock-on mode and started its group attack mode. After the Iron Claw locked onto a high building as a fixed point, Wrecking Ball started swinging.

To use the best analogy, this is probably like playing bowling...

"This is the 100-point imaginary enemy that U.A. High School prepared? It's amazing!"

Iida Tenya, who constantly expresses his respect for U.A. High School, clearly remembered the proctor's words, even though most people had ignored the advice of "Voice Hero" Mike.

Wrecking Ball's overly strong defensive armor makes it virtually invincible. At this stage, there are very few Quirks that can penetrate 30 centimeters of steel alloy. The students who came to take the exam are all too young. Their Quirks are only just beginning to develop, and their strength is limited because they have not been trained at all.

Defeating "Wrecking Ball" might not be difficult for them in the future, but right now it's practically like facing hellish difficulty.

Knowing that his imaginary rival, who scored 100 points, was definitely very strong, Iida Tenya wisely refrained from approaching him. As a result, he had the great privilege of witnessing several unlucky examinees being eliminated. One ball hit them and they were basically knocked unconscious and collapsed to the ground, which was quite a miserable sight.

Of course, among the many test takers, there are also tough ones, such as Katsuki Bakugo, who hunts down low-scoring imaginary enemies to gain points while eyeing the 100-point imaginary enemy.

"This lousy ball is too hard!"

While Wrecking Ball was focused on the other examinees, Bakugo rushed in and launched two surprise attacks, but the result was still the same as before, completely useless. At most, it only caused some gray and black marks on Wrecking Ball's face, but it had no other effect.

Bakugo's personality isn't suited to dealing with a perfect imaginary rival, and he's very rational about that. But he just can't bring himself to admit defeat. He's like a turtle shell that's impossible to break, but he still wants to blow it open. So right now, the exam room where Bakugo is is in complete chaos.

After two waves, we figured out the locking pattern of the 100-point imaginary enemy. It will only rigidly chase the nearest examinee. If there are multiple examinees in the range, this thing will adopt a group attack mode. After locking onto a foothold, it will swing and bump around like a bowling ball. Just by looking at that scene, you can tell that it is very dangerous.

But...this is also an opportunity!

The defenses inside that hole with the grappling hook probably aren't that strong, Bakugo thought to himself. Without another word, he charged straight at the group of examinees, taking Wrecking Ball with him as he went.

"Holy shit! Get away from me!!"

"Damn it! I'll remember this, you little brat. I'll settle the score with you after the exam!!"

"Damn it! You beast, don't come any closer!!"

.........

The chaotic scene was exactly the same as that on Kaminari Denki's side. When they saw someone pull over the 100-point imaginary rival, a large group of people immediately started cursing. Bakugo Katsuki didn't even change his expression and rushed into the crowd.

At the same moment, after "Wrecking Ball" locked onto a large group of examinees within its range, the fixed program directly activated its group attack mode, and Happy Wrecking Ball was ready.

"That's right, now!"

Having stopped in his tracks, Bakugo continuously unleashed explosions with both hands, generating a backlash. This examinee, who was eyeing 100 points, narrowly avoided the terrifying sweeping range of the "Wrecking Ball," while examinees who were accidentally hit were basically eliminated on the spot. In the instant he had aimed perfectly, Bakugo Katsuya unleashed a massive explosion with both hands.

Extreme acceleration! In an instant, he was right next to the Wrecking Ball. Bakugo had already locked his hands on the opening from which the grappling hook was extended, and the explosive attack he had been preparing was launched directly at it.

"Sinai!!"

Shouting his fierce catchphrase, Katsuki Bakugo went all out with this attack, with a do-or-die attitude. He had already amassed enough points from his low-scoring imaginary rivals, so he was confident he could get into U.A. High School no matter what. That's why he dared to take this gamble.

The powerful explosion shook the entire examination hall. Candidates from afar could hear the earth-shattering sound. However, in front of Katsuki Bakugo, black smoke obscured his vision. But since he didn't suffer a counterattack from his imaginary 100-point rival, he must have successfully defeated it, right?

"Wow! This boy's 'Quirk' is amazing! I remember he was your classmate, Midoriya-kun, right?"

"Hmm... I've known him since we were kids. Bakugo's 'Quirk' has always been amazing."

In response to All Might's question, Izuku Midoriya couldn't help but recall his past experiences with Katsuki Bakugo, although it was mostly a story of him being bullied.

"That attack just now targeted the Wrecking Ball's weak point. It seems unfortunate... Midoriya, your prized invention has been defeated."

"Huh? All Might, what are you talking about?! This is only the beginning."

"Huh...?"

All Might was completely bewildered, while on the teacher's monitor, the black smoke dissipated, and Bakugo Katsuki stood on the ground with a pained expression on his face. His attack just now was truly an overload, and his hands were now in excruciating pain.

"Click," "Click"....

A sound different from the rolling of the "Wrecking Ball" rang out from the black mist. Bakugo Katsuya stared at the thing in front of him with a look of astonishment. The original steel sphere split apart, and four mechanical legs stood on the ground, with two mechanical claws pointing at him menacingly.

"Holy crap! There's a second stage?"

Before Bakugo could even utter that one curse, he was immediately entangled and locked by the claws launched from the "Wrecking Ball," and was pulled away in an instant. The next second, the mechanical fist slammed into his forehead, knocking Bakugo unconscious.

"Um... Midoriya, you didn't tell me this thing could transform?"

"what?"

Seeing All Might's timid and questioning expression, Izuku Midoriya looked puzzled and said somewhat strangely:

"Shouldn't mechanical transformation be common sense? It's really strange that I spent 6 months making just a ball. It should at least have the most common mechanical transformation combat function."

"What kind of common sense is that... I've never heard of such a thing."

Not knowing where to begin his吐槽 (tu cao, a Chinese internet slang term for sarcastic or critical comments), Izuku Midoriya offered a serious explanation:

"Definitely. 'Wrecking Ball' can't replace a zero-point hypothetical enemy with just ramming attacks. Considering the complexity and variability of 'Quirks,' it would be troublesome if it encountered an opponent like 'Sludge Enemy' who is completely immune to physical attacks."

"Therefore, different mechanisms will be activated depending on the opponent. I've considered that if the opponent is 'physically immune,' the 'Wrecking Ball' will convert its energy into electricity for a wide-range discharge attack, and also..."

Listening to Izuku Midoriya's endless explanation, All Might quietly and timidly asked Kaiu Akaya for his question.

"What exactly did this child learn from you? I feel like I don't recognize him at all."

"That's normal. It's just letting him utilize his existing 'talents.' I said before that this kid is very talented, right?"

"Okay...you win."

All Might was completely unable to refute the argument, and as the proctors from U.A. High School observed each exam room and scored different students, time continued to pass... until finally, the U.A. High School entrance exam came to an end.

"Huh? One of the test takers actually beat their 100-point imaginary rival!!"

"What!?"

Upon hearing Midnight's words, everyone present craned their necks in surprise, eager to see who was so capable as to defeat this "Wrecking Ball." Up until now, almost all the teachers believed that no student could defeat the hypothetical enemy who scored 100 points.

"Wait, let me see..."

The teacher, who was in a hurry to pull up the video and the candidates' information, saw from the surveillance camera in the same examination room as Iida Tenya that a girl with brown hair was panting heavily, while the "Wrecking Ball" in front of her was floating in mid-air without making any movement.

"Ochako Uraraka's Quirk is... 'Zero Gravity'?"

As midnight read out the candidates' information, everyone's eyes turned to Akaya Kaiun. The teachers, who didn't understand what was going on, could only leave the explanation to the big boss.

"Ahem..." Akaya Kaiun cleared his throat and naturally took on the role of commentator.

"This Uraraka's Quirk is 'Zero Gravity,' and it seems she used it to reduce the weight of the 'Wrecking Ball' to zero. This caused a programming error in the 'Wrecking Ball.' As mentioned earlier, this mechanical core mainly uses a 'gravity-powered device'... Don't ask what that is; you wouldn't understand anyway."

"Because the 'Wrecking Ball' has zero weight, it has a logical flaw, so it's currently in a powerless state. It seems you'll have to consider opponents with even more unique 'Quirks', Midoriya."

Akaya Kaiun provided a perfect explanation and even gave Midoriya Izuku a brief comment to prevent him from becoming too arrogant; it was practically a successful teaching session.

"I understand, Akagaya-sensei. I'll fix the program bug right away!"

"Yes! Only through making mistakes can we achieve perfection. With continuous improvement, the Wrecking Ball might become a truly outstanding invention."

Listening to the conversation between Akaya Kaion and Midoriya Izuku, the teachers at U.A. High School felt a chill run down their spines. Speaking of which, this Akaya teacher was quite a terrifying person... The Kamen Rider system he created could even allow "Quirkless" characters to defeat powerful enemies. They were truly afraid that he might come up with some invention that would disrupt the world order.

"But no matter what, a defeat is a defeat. Let's give Li Ri a 100-point bonus. It seems the first place in this entrance exam has been decided."

Akaya Kaion, who spoke these words without batting an eye, was surprised to find that Uraraka Ochako had actually achieved the highest score in the entrance exam for U.A. High School. As for Bakugo Katsuki... despite defeating many imaginary enemies, he had to leave early to challenge "Wrecking Ball," so his entrance score was practically the lowest.

Chapter 18 U.A. High School: Enrollment

To enter U.A. High School, after successfully passing the extremely difficult entrance exam, a lucky few students who meet the requirements will be assigned to the Hero Course. Naturally, the current stage of learning and training is essential for becoming a great hero.

Students who successfully enter the Hero Course will receive substantial support and education from the school over the next three years. It can be said that graduating from U.A. High School means becoming a well-known hero in society. Joining the Hero Course is the dream and aspiration of almost every student.

"That's amazing!!"

Haha~~ Not at all~~

The students who achieved excellent results in the entrance exam were assigned to Class A of the first year at U.A. High School. Now, a large group of people are surrounding Ochako Uraraka, showing her concern and care. After all, this cute girl was the top scorer in the entrance exam.

After using her "zero gravity" quirk to render the 100-point imaginary enemy "Wrecking Ball" powerless, Ochako Uraraka successfully obtained a high score of 100. Although she had only defeated a few low-scoring imaginary enemies before, with this 100 points, her score was off the charts. In addition, with the intimidating fact that she was the only one to defeat a 100-point imaginary enemy, she became the star of everyone's attention as soon as she arrived in class today.

"hateful!"

With a dark expression and extreme displeasure, Bakugo Katsutoshi turned his head to the side. He couldn't defeat that imaginary rival who was 100 points high, even with all his strength, but was defeated by a female student who didn't seem very strong... No matter what, Bakugo's pride as a grown man couldn't let it go.

"Seriously! Why did U.A. High School create such a terrifying hypothetical enemy? I almost thought I was going to die."

Recalling the scene of the entrance exam, Se Putao is still a little scared. He was short and was chased and crushed by a 2-meter-long "Wrecking Ball". It can be said that if he had been a little slower, he would have been killed.

"That's right! That's right! It was deliberately set up to scam people!!"

Kaminari Denki, whose voice was filled with a complex mix of emotions, had been relentlessly pursued during the entrance exam. Fortunately, he cleverly shifted the focus of the aggression to the main group, allowing him to escape and collect points from other imaginary enemies.

"That thing was really powerful. I was knocked flying and thrown a long way the moment I saw it, but luckily my Quirk is 'Harden', which is why I survived."

On the first day of school, having common topics made it easier to get along with classmates, and the hot-blooded young man with red hair joined in the chatter.

"My name is Kirishima Eijiro. Nice to meet you!"

"My name is Tenya Iida. It's nice to meet you all."

..........

On the first day of school at U.A. High School, most students naturally greeted each other and introduced themselves. This was a typical scene for students getting to know each other on their first day of school. However, Katsuki Bakugo still had a sour face and completely kept everyone at arm's length.

Shoto Todoroki is in the same situation, except that this cold-faced classmate is currently unable to resolve his inner conflict and communicate with others.

Soon, the first class at U.A. High School began. Shota Aizawa, the homeroom teacher of Class 1-A in the Hero Course, emerged from his sleeping bag and immediately gave the new students a rude awakening. After intimidating them with threats of expulsion and forcing them to undergo a "Quirk" test, he began the formal lecture for the first class:

"First of all... I'll step down now and let someone else speak for you."

With a listless expression, Aizawa Shota crawled back into his sleeping bag. It was hard to understand why this "rubberhead" was always so tired. But before the students below could start whispering, someone had already opened the classroom door and come to the podium.

"Let me introduce myself first. My name is Akaya Kaiun. I am the homeroom teacher for the first year of the Support Department, and I am also the teacher for your Equipment and Props class. Now, please feel free to ask any questions you may have."
