A Perfect Record

U.A. High School was silent.

No one moved.

Every eye was locked on the battlefield.

Yuto stood in the ruined arena like something out of a nightmare.

The crowd sucked in a breath.

Had Yuto really won?

Even now, they could not believe what they were seeing.

His opponent was All Might.

But in the next moment, All Might also stepped out of the smoke.

He raised Yuto's right hand high and showed his standard smile.

"For this exam, Young Yuto officially passes!"

Yuto gave a faint smile.

"All Might, how much power did you use in this fight?"

All Might did not hide it.

"Around seventy percent."

Yuto's eyes shone with determination.

"Next time, I'll surpass you at your full power."

All Might looked at Yuto with approval.

He gave him a thumbs-up and laughed.

"I look forward to your growth, Young Yuto!"

Smack.

The two of them high-fived and smiled at each other.

No matter how fiercely they had fought on the battlefield, after the battle, there was no resentment between them.

After this fight, the bond between All Might and Yuto had only grown deeper.

For several seconds after All Might spoke, U.A. remained silent.

The audience still had not fully reacted.

They stared at the crater where the battlefield had been.

Was Yuto really only a fifteen-year-old high school student?

Was this really his destructive power?

The battle was still vivid in their minds.

Even if they found it hard to believe, All Might himself had declared the result.

That made it undeniable.

In the commentary room, Present Mic froze for a moment before finally snapping back to himself.

His voice trembled as he shouted, "A passing of the torch between heroes! Yuto has passed All Might's exam!"

"After this battle, Yuto has passed every final exam!"

"He fulfilled the promise he made before the exams began and cleared the U.A. finals with a perfect record!"

"Thank you, Yuto! Thank you, All Might! You gave us an incredible match!"

"Now give them the loudest applause you can!"

As soon as he finished, the silent stadium finally erupted.

That was right.

Yuto had passed the U.A. final exams with a perfect record.

The audience stood up and shouted, raising their arms and cheering until their throats went hoarse.

"Go, Yuto!"

"Yuto, we'll always support you!"

"Next time you fight All Might, surpass his full power!"

"That's right! Your goal isn't stopping here. Your goal is All Might at his prime!"

After this battle, the audience's expectations for Yuto rose even higher.

"Yuto! Yuto!"

The cheers would not stop.

The sound rolled through U.A. like a tidal wave.

At that moment, the stadium belonged to Yuto.

In the teachers' viewing area, U.A.'s teachers were still shocked.

Aizawa was speechless.

Midnight smiled helplessly.

"That kid actually passed All Might's exam. At fifteen, he's already that strong."

Principal Nezu's eyes stayed on Yuto.

After so many incidents, Yuto's potential and strength had already proven themselves.

Nezu's expression turned serious.

"Ever since All Might's old injury, his strength has been declining. The League of Villains has been moving constantly, and the one behind them is All For One."

The teachers stiffened at that name.

All For One was a monster from the past.

His crimes were still fresh in their memories.

Midnight asked in shock, "All For One has returned?"

Nezu nodded without hesitation.

"Yes. The USJ attack and the Hero Killer incident were both connected to his plans."

"All For One is still active, and he remains extremely dangerous. With All Might's current state, facing him will be difficult."

"Perhaps Yuto's sudden rise can change that."

"Our goal is simple. We must help Yuto grow faster."

"Yuto may become a new light for us."

After the battle with All Might ended, U.A. was still roaring with excitement.

Reporters aimed their cameras and flashes at Yuto.

Click. Click.

There was no doubt that he was the focus now.

Class 1-A rushed toward him.

Yaoyorozu hugged Yuto tightly, unable to hide her excitement.

"That was wonderful! You won!"

Midoriya shouted excitedly, "Yuto-kun! That battle was amazing! You passed All Might's terrifying exam!"

Ochaco waved her small fist.

"Yuu-kun, I still can't believe it! You even passed All Might's exam! Now we can all go to the forest training camp together!"

Tsuyu smiled.

"Yuto-chan passed all three battles perfectly. Still, passing All Might's exam was more than I expected, ribbit."

Kirishima clenched his fists, burning with excitement.

"That was a real fight between men! Yuto, watching that battle almost made me cry. I swear I'll keep working hard and follow your path."

Hagakure said playfully, "That's right! The forest training camp sounds great. After finals, we should relax a little."

Feeling Class 1-A's enthusiasm, Yuto smiled softly.

This was friendship between classmates.

He knew they had been cheering for him throughout the match.

"That's right. After the final exams, everyone should relax for a while."

"I'm looking forward to going to the forest training camp with all of you too."

Then Yuto suggested, "Since that's settled, let's all go eat together."

Class 1-A cheered.

"Yuto, you won every final exam. You have to treat us this time!"

Yuto was not stingy.

A little money to strengthen his friendship with the class was worth it.

He smiled lightly.

"Okay."

For a moment, Yuto and Class 1-A were surrounded by a warm, lively atmosphere.

Then a cold glint flashed deep in Yuto's eyes.

Forest training camp.

He knew exactly what would happen next.

The end of the final exams was not the time to relax.

The forest training camp would be attacked by the League of Villains.

Stronger enemies would appear too.

Himiko Toga, Dabi, Muscular.

Everything was only beginning.

He still had to keep growing stronger.

That was what mattered most.
