Chapter 72 - Resolved

Brando entered the waiting room where everyone was staying.

"Brando! Where have you been?" Iida asked.

"I met my grandfather earlier," Brando answered and sat down next to Hagakure.

"Oh, that's right, your grandfather is a hero too, right?" Hagakure said.

"Yes, he has retired though," Brando answered.

"Who is his name?" Midoriya asked with excitement.

Brando really thought that this guy was a hero nerd, "I'm not sure whether you've heard it but his name is Gran Torino."

"Gran Torino..." Midoriya said and started to mutter, "Hmm, with his dinosaur ability so that his grandfather might be..."

Brando felt a headache listening to his muttering, "Midoriya, you can search it later, you don't need to say talk about it now." He took his steel ball and started to spin it on his palm. He couldn't use this steel ball on the match since it was counted as a support item. He was a student from a hero department and it was forbidden to use a support item since it was unfair for the other departments who entered the Sports Festival.

"Dio, what is that ball for?" Momo asked and was a bit curious since he had asked her to create the ball before.

"It's for medical effect," Brando answered.

"Medical effects?" They raised their eyebrows and weren't sure what he meant by that.

"Is it similar to acupuncture or something?" Sero asked.

"Yes, it is similar to something like that, it is a traditional method," Brando answered and added, "I can't use it on the Sports Festival thought."

"Can it be used to erase my anxiety?" Uraraka asked with a nervous expression. She had been nervous for a while right now.

"It might be, do you want to try it?" Brando asked.

"Yes," Uraraka nodded.

Brando spun his steel ball in his palm.

Everyone watched both of them with a curious expression.

"Don't freak out," Brando said.

Uraraka nodded in response.

Brando put the steel ball on the back of her neck.

Suddenly everyone was surprised and became scared of the change.

"U - Uraraka!?"

"Dio! What the hell are you doing?!"

"W - What's happening?" Uraraka was shocked to hear their screams and saw that her hands had become wrinkled and malnourished, "Huh?" She started to touch her face and looked at the mirror. She couldn't help but become scared and mad, "Dio! What the hell are you doing with me! Turn me back! Look at me! I'm sagging all over!" She started to hit him since she was panicked.

"Calm down, let me take the ball," Brando said and took the steel ball.

Suddenly her skin and silhouette became more beautiful. Her chest was also more bountiful and seemed that she had a transformation.

The guy in the class couldn't help but become attracted by her beauty.

"...."

Brando put up a mirror and showed her appearance, "How?"

"T - This is me?" Uraraka couldn't help but be mesmerized by her appearance right now. She had quite a poor diet since she was quite poor but the girl in front of her was different.

"This will only stay for a week or so," Brando said.

"Yes, thank you," Uraraka nodded with a happy smile.

Brando thought that it could become money and sat down once more. He noticed that everyone had watched him, "What?" He didn't really care whether someone had trained this technique or not since it was quite

"How can you do that? That's not Quirk, right?" Midoriya was surprised.

"Is this the secret of your secret training?" Kirishima asked.

"It's a secret," Brando winked.

They sighed when they heard it but it was understandable.

Midoriya tried to analyze his technique but he didn't have enough data.

"Can you do that on me too?" Ashido asked.

"Me too, Dio-chan," Ashui said.

"Ahem, I can pay for it," Momo said.

"Me too!" Hagakure said while raising her hand.

"....." Brando looked at Hagakure with speechless expression.

Jiro also wanted the same but she was too shy to ask it. She was afraid for someone to mock her since she was a tomboy.

"We can do that later, we need to focus on the Sports Festival," Brando said.

The girls who heard it couldn't help but became disappointed. They wanted to show their most beautiful when they were at the Sports Festival.

Bakugou walked toward him and asked, "That trick is useless in the battle."

"Yeah, that might be it," Brando didn't really want to tell him about the effect of this 'Spin'.

Bakugou thought that he could get more information but it seemed that he couldn't. He wanted to say something but someone beat him first.

"Brando."

Brando turned and said, "Todoroki? What's wrong?"

"I'm going to beat you," Todoroki said.

"Ooh! A declaration of war?!"

Everyone was shocked by his war declaration.

Brando snorted, "You want to win? Then you shouldn't hold back, use your other Quirk or else you won't be able to beat me."

Todoroki frowned, "I'll show you that I can beat you with my ice Quirk."

"BASTARD! DON'T IGNORE ME! I'LL BE THE WINNER OF THIS SPORT FESTIVAL!" Bakugou was mad.

Everyone in the class saw the big three who were arguing to each other who would become the winner.

Midoriya, who saw three of them arguing with each other, couldn't help but clenched his hands. He knew that he couldn't his Quirk but he had promised to someone and he would definitely win this Sports Festival.

Brando looked at two of them and wouldn't lose to them. He had decided to become a hero and he wouldn't be satisfied without becoming the best.

That is his resolved and he won't lose no matter what.

Chika and everyone weren't nervous anymore since Sorahiko had accompanied them.

Sorahiko asked them where they had known him. He felt that it was better for him to create more connection with people.

They walked to the audience seat until they saw a large man with short blond hair, swept backwards, with two distinct tufts that stuck up above his head.

"A - ALL MIGHT!?" They were surprised to see the symbol of peace here.

"O - Oh..." Yoshiko was too stunned to say anything.

"S - Sensei?! You're here?!" All Might was surprised to see Sorahiko.

"Oh, All Might, why are you here?" Sorahiko asked.

"I'm on patrol, who are they?" All Might asked.

"They're Dio's friends and I'm helping them watch the Sports Festival," Sorahiko said.

"Oh, then please, I will accompany you there," All Might said.

"....." They looked at Sorahiko and wondered who his grandpa was.

"Who is his grandfather, zura?" Hanamaru asked.

"I - I don't know," Ruby shook her head.

"So, let's just ask him a question! Grandpa!" Mari suddenly said.

"Hmm?" Sorahiko looked at her.

"....." They were speechless about how bold this girl was.
