Chapter 6

Nezu was laughing like a maniac as he sipped on some tea. The other people watching could only pray for Izuku's well being after today.

The other examinees were at a loss for words, Mina was stunned by Izuku's growth, and collectively they all asked the same question.

"How did he do that!"

Izuku walked back to the boy he helped.

"Is she ok?"

"Y-Yea. Just a twisted ankle."

"Well that's a relief."

Izuku looked down at the girl, who had black spiky hair tied into a ponytail, as her eyes met his.

"You ok, no other injury you know about?"

"Y-Yes..I am fine."

Before he could respond a small elderly woman came by.

"My goodness sonny, did you really have to do that?"

Izuku chuckled as he rubbed the back of his head. He knew it was a little much but it was totally worth it. That only proved he had gotten stronger.

"What about you dearie?"

"I-I only sprained my ankle."

"Well let me heal that up for you."

Her lips stretched out to the girls ankle as a green glow began emanating around the girls body. She fell asleep after the elderly woman healed her.

"She is just tired, here you go you two, some candy for working hard."

Izuku ate the candy almost immediately, as he trained he slowly gained a sweet tooth, and smiled in satisfactory. The other boy inspected the candy before eating it.

Izuku left the faux city with Mina asking him tons of questions. He responded he would tell her in due time. Mina couldn't wait for that day to arrive.

*Two Weeks Later*

Izuku was banging his head against his table in his living room as Inko shown Mina, Kyouka, and Setsuna his baby pictures. He would gladly fight Shiva to escape this torment. That was when the thought hit him hard.

'I could tell them about Humanity's Will now, right?'

A knock was heard on the door pulling Izuku back to reality. He got up to answer it while trying his best to ignore the teasing.

'It's almost over, it's almost over.'

He opened the door for it to reveal Shiva standing there with a bucket of chicken.

"Heya Izuku! Figured I could stop by for a bit, you haven't told them yet have you?"

Izuku knew what he was referring to and answered.

"No, I was about to, I can tell them now right?"

"Yes, an coincidentally, I'm here to help!"

'I don't think it was by coincidence...'

Izuku stepped to the side as Shiva let himself in. Before he closed the door the mailman stopped Izuku.

"Are you Izuku Yagi?"

Izuku nodded his head as the mailman gave him a letter.

"Here you go, one letter, I hope you got in!"

The mailman left as Izuku stared at the envelope in his hands. In bold letters was his name he flipped it to the other side to see a stamp with UA's insignia.

His hands became sweaty and his breath picked up a bit. This letter was the one thing that would allow him to become a hero. He quickly closed the door and ran into the living room proudly showing his letter to his family, friends, and teacher.

"It came!"

Toshinori hid a smile as he drank his coffee. Shiva smirked congratulating Izuku for all of his hardwork. While Inko was crying tears of joy from Izuku's determination. Mina, Kyouka, and Setsuna all sat next to him, except for Mina who stood behind him, as Izuku opened the letter.

A small disc had fell out of the envelope and a hologram appeared showing Nezu.

"Hello Izuku Yagi! Am I a bear, a mouse, or a dog? That doesn't matter, what matters, is that I am the principal! I want to personally congratulate you for beating the old record here at UA. With an accumulated seventy five villain points, you made it with remarkable success! As for a secret in these tests, what kind of hero school would we be if we didn't have rescue points! Since you saved two examinees, each person rescued is twenty five points, which leads to you having a total of one hundred and twenty five points! I, Nezu, welcome you. This is your Hero Academia."

The hologram vanished and the small disc had exploded, it went off like a small firecracker, while Izuku and everyone else were quiet. Izuku knew he destroyed a lot of bots, but to have over a hundred points!? That was simply overwhelming.

"W-Wow..."

Before he could stand up Mina wrapped her arms around Izuku's neck and peppered him with kisses on his cheek. Izuku turned to her by accident and their lips met while their eyes were wide like dinner plates.

They would have continued if it weren't for Inko taking several pictures of them. Mina was blushing as Kyouka and Setsuna teased her and Izuku was dealing with his parents and teacher.

"It isn't like that!"

"Really Izuku? Cause what I saw would say otherwise, wouldn't you say so Inko?"

"I agree, Shiva."

The two were smirking as Izuku groaned in defeat. Izuku looked over to Mina as she talked with Setsuna and Kyouka and smiled.

'She smelled like lilacs.'

"Izuku."

He looked up at Shiva, who had a serious aura surrounding him, as he sat down and gestured for everyone else too as well.

"It is time."

Izuku knew what that meant and took a deep breath before turning to the three girls who were slightly scared.

"Girls, I think its time I tell you why I have been training."

*One Explanation Later*

If they were told this when Izuku was still in the hospital they wouldn't believe them an worry if Izuku trained so hard his brain turned into mush. But the serious presence, both Shiva and Izuku emitted, told them this was no joke but reality.

"So, your now an all supreme and powerful being that can take on a literal God?"

Izuku nodded his head.

"An all this time Shiva, God of Destruction in Hindu, had been training you to use what comes with it?"

"Yup."

Izuku wasn't sure how they would react to the sudden news they were given. Setsuna walked up to Izuku and sat down next to him clinging to his arm.

"It still doesn't change how I see you."

Mina sat down next to Izuku and held tightly onto his left arm.

"I just got you back, I don't want you to leave again."

Kyouka sat on his lap, despite being embarrassed by the stares from the adults and God, and smiled as she wrapped her arms around his neck.

"Nothing is ever gonna change that."

Izuku wrapped his arms around all three of them as he hugged them tightly. He was glad they didn't treat him any differently.

Shiva smiled softly, being reminded of his past, before he cleared his throat to signal that he still had more to say.

"I don't want to be the one that interrupts such a touching moment. But don't you three have letters arriving at your home's as well?"

The three gasped as they all left a kiss on Izuku. Mina kissed his left cheek, Setsuna kissed his right, and Kyouka kissed his forehead. An the three quickly ran to their homes for their letters.

"I gotta give to ya Izuku, you really are a bachelor."

Shiva smirked as Izuku hid his face behind his hands, secretly smiling from their affection, before the God snapped his fingers.

"That reminds me! I have some gifts for you Izuku."

Shiva stepped out of the front door for just a second before reentering holding a few boxes.

"Shiva, let me get some of that for you."

Toshinori grabbed a few boxes as Shiva placed the rest down near Izuku. He was surprised Shiva had gifts and opened the first one, inside was brass knuckles.

"Brass knuckles?"

"Yup, Adam used a pair like those, except that one is made out of a titanium alloy lined with platinum. It may not be able to kill a God straight away, but you can give them one hell of a beating with them."

Inko had wide eyes as her son put the weapon on his fist and did a couple of jabs before smiling.

"I like it. Thank you Sensei."

Izuku bowed, or at least tried to, as Shiva placed his hand on his shoulder.

"Kid, we've grown past that, call me Shiva."

He nodded his head and opened his next gift. Inside was a satchel, a pair of gloves, and finally a step by step manuel on making a giant switchblade. Toshinori nearly fainted but pulled himself together upon seeing the gift.

"Jack used those as well. An you can build other things instead of a switchblade that's as big as a stalagmite. In the satchel is a grapple gun, a couple of throwing knives, an umbrealla, and finally giant scissors."

Shiva smiled as Izuku quickly pieced together the giant switchblade. Inko fainted upon seeing her son hold a knife. Izuku chuckled upon remembering their little skirmish when he used throwing knives.

"Thank you Shiva. I still won that fight fair and square."

"No you didn't."

"Yes I did."

The two laughed as Izuku opened the next box. This one was intriguing to say the least. Inside was a pair of spaulders and five nail guards, otherwise known as 'Zhijiatao', as well as a sword.

"The sword was used by Qin Shi. It's called 'Shi Huang Goujian Sword'. It was used to kill Hades."

Izuku looked at the sword as it was decorated beautifully. Every design and intricate mark was divine. He placed the sword back in its sheath and bowed to Shiva.

"Thank you Shiva. I truly wouldn't have gotten this far without your help. From the bottom of my heart I thank you."

Shiva lifted Izuku up from the floor as he smiled.

"I should be the one thanking you, Izuku Yagi. You have shown that humanity still has a chance to be protected."

Izuku smiled as he hugged Shiva, who was surprised by this, and the God slowly placed his hand on Izuku's shoulder as he returned the hug. Izuku unwrapped his arms and soon began thinking of how he could get Nezu to approve of his new, in a way, support items.

Inko woke up only to see Izuku holding a sword to which she fainted once more.

"Toshinori, I have a request for both you and your wife."

Toshinori listened as Inko slowly woke up.

*Dagobah Beach*

Izuku and Shiva stood across from each other as the two stretched their limbs. Inko and Toshinori were standing off to the side in their hero costumes. They were there to keep crowd control to a minimum and to be there if Shiva and Izuku were endangering anyone close enough.

"Remember Izuku, if you fail, I won't teach you the last two lessons. If you prevail I will tell you everything, are you ready?"

Izuku took his stance, a cross between Kickboxing and Capoeira, as he hopped on his feet with a smirk.

"Ready as I'll ever be Shiva."

Shiva smirked as well before the two engaged in combat. Izuku threw a jab to which Shiva blocked with his leg as Izuku threw a right hook. The hit landed as Izuku continued his assault by throwing jabs and kicks.

Shiva kicked Izuku away, not holding back, as his body began to set on fire. Izuku held his side, it was pain he was not used to, and stood up to see Shiva walking to Izuku slowly, the sand becoming glass, as his body was burning.

"I said if you fail. I won't teach you those lessons. Do you really not care for it?"

Izuku stood back up as he took a deep breath before his aura depicted a dragon.

"Not a chance Shiva. I'm gonna win, no matter what, I will always prevail!"

Izuku used all of his teachings at that one moment. 'Sengen Musou' shown him all of Shiva's actions and 'Divine Reflection' copied his entire movement. While Shiyu was standing by, ready to be unleashed, as Shiva smiled at Izuku.

"That's what I like to hear! Let's dance 'til our bodies burn up!"

Izuku started the fight this time by leaping to Shiva, giving him almost no time to react, as he unleashed his spear form of Shiyu. He formed a claw using his index, and middle finger with his thumb making the claw.

"Shiyu, Spear Form; Mount Tai Dragon Claw!"

Shiva spat out a few blood droplets while Izuku smirked seeing his attack impaled Shiva's skin. The God of Destruction grinned as his fist tightened Izuku gasped and tried dodging only for it to be to late.

"Tandava!"

A volley of punches were propelled at Izuku. The fist was burning as well and only added on more damage to Izuku as he tried blocking. Shiva kept up the pressure as Izuku slowly backed away from him. The punches were getting to him, it was faster than 'Sengen Musou' could keep up with, so he made his own move of Shiyu.

"Shiyu..Armor/Halberd Form!"

Izuku pulled his right leg back as Shiva pulled his back as well. Both of them smiling as their kicks both clashed an they shouted out their attack.

"Shi Huang Guard, Crescent Moon!!"

"Krittivasa!!"

With the amount of punches that were used Izuku gathered all of that kinetic energy and used it to power himself. Shiva's leg was burning brightly as the heat began making a small platform of glass, creating a makeshift arena, people saw the fight and called in heroes thinking a villain was attacking.

All Might and Psybolt stopped them however as they told everyone watching it was a spar between student and teacher. Inko however glared at Shiva for not hplding back, although she understood why he wasn't.

Their attacks collided had sent out waves of heat toward the crowd. Toshinori clapped his hands and dispersed the intense heat before it could reach anyone. Izuku felt his as though his leg was being ripped to shreds but pushed forward. Shiva felt his kick being repelled back so he jumped back an tried using 'Tandava' again but Izuku's kick was still in effect as it sent a thin blade of air toward Shiva. The God sidestepped but was still cut as Izuku stood there panting.

"Is that...all you got?"

Shiva looked up to see Izuku take a deep breath and his eyes begin to glow. The God smirked as he began to dance, his War Dance.

"Tandava Karma."

A dance that lit Shiva's body on fire completely. Inko was about to intervene until Izuku stopped her himself.

"Don't worry Mom..I got this."

With a smile and a aura of peace Inko stood down and continued watching the fight.

"Show me Izuku, that you will protect Humanity with every fiber of your well being!"

Izuku took another deep breath as he unleashed his attack.

"Shiyu, Crossbow Form!"

Shiva's eyes widened as three air pellets were shot out from Izuku's mouth. Each one hitting a pressure point in Shivas body.

"Tortoise Ripple!"

Each one temporarily shut down his limbs as Izuku leapt toward Shiva as his fist was set on fire, his eyes shown a eight pointed star.

"Tandava!!"

Shiva blocked as his own attack was used against him, with the exception of having twice as much to deal with, as Izuku prepped his next attack.

Off to the side was Kyouka watching the fight go on. She clutched her hands into fists as she watched Izuku's body slowly burn.

'Please, win Izuku!'

Izuku kept up the barrage of fists going as Shiva tried blocking them with his one arm.

"You give up yet!?"

Izuku's right fist was caught as Shiva kicked his left side. His body flew as Shiva leapt toward Izuku both of them smirking.

"Not yet Izuku!"

"I thought so!"

Shiva pulled his fist back as Izuku began to stand up on his feet.

"Tandava!!"

"Shiyu, Armor Form; Heavenly Hand of Defense!!"

Izuku took the punches as it burned his body as well. The heat was starting to get to both of them so they prepared their final attack, except, Shiva did not expect Izuku's next attack. Using 'Sengen Musou' he saw Shiva was going for a spinning heel kick so he tucked his right arm in as his eyes began straining.

The crowd watched in anticipation as Izuku and Shiva both yelled out their attacks.

"Deva Loka!!!"

"True God's Right!!!"

Izuku dodged Shiva's kick as he punched Shiva's jaw with all of his might. Shiva tried resisting but eventually flew back from Izuku's right hook and landed on his back. As he tried standing up Izuku was standing in front of him, his left arm pulled back, as he stared down Shiva.

"Do...you..yield?"

The fire began to flicker as Shiva lifted his hand up to Izuku. His student grabbed it as he was pulled up onto his feet. Shiva stared down Izuku, who in turn stared at his teacher, before he smiled as he placed his hand on his shoulder.

"I yield."

Izuku, whose body was slightly scorched and bruised, smiled as he raised his fist up into the sky. The crowd cheered for Izuku as he stood in place until his body began swaying back and forth. Kyouka ran up to him and caught him before his body had hit the ground.

"Izuku Yagi, you are truly, Humanity's Protector."

Shiva walked away while paramedics were called for Izuku's injuries. A promise is a promise, Shiva will teach Izuku how to truly be the strongest man on earth.

To be Continued.
