I Am Iron Man (MHA) Chapter 141: Rescue Training Race
🕑 Added 2024-10-28 12:38:29 +0000 UTC[Third Person's PoV]
Over the training ground Tony found himself standing beside his classmates, each clad in their hero costumes, gathered before the towering figure of All Might. The open field was buzzing with a mix of anticipation and curiosity. All Might stood at the front, his signature grin beaming with infectious enthusiasm.
“I AM HERE!” he declared, his voice booming across the area. “And the reason is… your basic Hero Training! It's been a while, young students. How’s everyone doing?”
The class collectively raised a brow at All Might’s now-familiar entrance. By now, the students had grown accustomed to his larger-than-life persona and could only manage faint smiles, a far cry from their initial awe.
Seeing their lackluster response, All Might let out a small, almost invisible sigh, a bead of sweat forming at his temple. Unfazed, he pressed on. “To follow up on your recent internships, today’s activity will be fun, engaging, and essential to your hero training—a Rescue Training Race!” He raised a finger dramatically, and the energy in the air shifted as a ripple of excitement spread through the students.
Iida quickly raised his hand. “Shouldn’t rescue training typically be conducted at the USJ?”
“The USJ is primarily suited for disaster scenarios. For today, we’re at Field Gamma! This area is a dense network of interlocking factory structures, creating a maze-like labyrinth. You’ll be divided into teams, and each team will go through one at a time. I’ll fire a distress signal from somewhere inside, and you’ll start from the outer border. The objective is simple: the first person to reach and ‘rescue’ me wins!”
The first group All Might called was Asui, Uraraka, Shoji, Midoriya, and Melissa. They gathered at the starting line, each one with a look of determination.
“Break a leg,” Tony whispered to Melissa, giving her a high-five. She smirked back confidently.
Asui sighed, her eyes flicking to the maze ahead. “You know, ribbit, this environment seems like it’d be my specialty… but it still feels like a bit of a disadvantage.”
“Now you know how I feel…” Uraraka muttered, her shoulders slumping as a defeated sigh escaped her lips, her soul practically escaping from her mouth
Melissa’s suit materialized around her with sleek, effortless precision, wrapping her figure in her Mark 40 suit, codenamed the Wraith Suit, its polished metal blending seamlessly with the symbiotic enhancements of Livewire. A faint yellow glow emanated from her frame as she levitated inches off the ground.
“What the heck!?” Several of her classmates gasped in astonishment as they watched her transformation.
Momo arched her brow, intrigued. “Do you all have suits like that?”
Master Splinter peeked out from his shoulder, his own tiny suit, mousetrap, forming around him. “Oh, indeed. We’re all equipped for greatness,” he quipped proudly.
Jiro chuckled, folding her arms. “So you’ve even outfitted your pet now?”
Master Splinter gave her an indignant look. “Excuse me, Missy, I’m no pet—I’m a partner.”
Jiro smirked, holding back laughter. “Right, sorry. My mistake.”
At the starting line, the participants all leaned forward, ready for the signal. Asui crouched low, her legs tensing. Uraraka tapped her fingers around her clothing to make herself lighter, while Shoji grew extra limbs to steady himself. Midoriya’s aura flickered with green energy, and Melissa hovered effortlessly in the air.
The moment the distress signal blared, they shot forward. Melissa and Midoriya immediately surged into the lead, weaving skillfully through the industrial maze. Melissa darted up and down, maneuvering with ease around the tangled pipes and barriers.
But to everyone’s surprise, Midoriya wasn’t far behind. Green and black tendrils sprouted from his arms, wrapping around the pipes and pulling him forward in swift, controlled movements. He stretched his tendrils out to the sides, launching himself with impressive agility to match Melissa’s speed.
“Wow, look at him go!” Mina exclaimed, her eyes wide.
“Can he really do that with his quirk?” Kaminari asked, stunned.
“What even is his quirk?” Ojiro added, tilting his head in confusion.
Standing to the side, Bakugo observed with a deepening frown, his gaze narrowing as he analyzed Midoriya’s technique.
Meanwhile, Melissa phased through some of the factory walls, utilizing the intangibility function of her Wraith Suit. Those watching gasped, unaware that her suit granted such unique abilities.
All Might waited at the designated “rescue” spot, standing with his arms akimbo, when Melissa suddenly materialized beneath him. She solidified with a light touch to his shoulder, grinning as she whispered, “Boop.”
The students erupted into cheers as All Might declared Melissa the winner. Moments later, Midoriya swung into view, gripping a nearby railing with his tendrils. He sighed, his eyes reflecting a mixture of determination and disappointment. “I was so close…”
Shoji arrived next, landing gracefully beside them. Finally, Asui hopped in, followed closely by a downcast Uraraka.
All Might rested a reassuring hand on Uraraka’s shoulder. “Don’t worry, young Uraraka. You’re strong—there’s no doubt about that. But mobility may be something to work on.”
“Thank you, All Might…” she murmured as they rejoined the group.
Their classmates swarmed around Midoriya and Melissa, peppering them with questions about Midoriya’s abilities and Melissa’s suit.
Noticing Uraraka’s still-dim expression, Tony approached her, a mischievous glint in his eyes. “Hey, how’d you like to make a deal?”
Uraraka blinked at him, eyebrows raised. “A deal? Depends on what exactly.”
Tony smirked, leaning in with a playful confidence. “I get to study your quirk, and in return, I’ll make you your own custom super suit. And as you should know by now, anything I make will be incredible.”
Her eyes widened. “You want to study my quirk?”
“Yup,” Tony replied with a grin. “I’ve already studied light with Toru, and now I’m curious about the mechanics of gravity. Your quirk could help me unlock a whole new realm of science.”
She hesitated, pressing her fingers together. “Would that involve, like… needles and blood tests?”
“What? No way! Why would I even need that?” Tony chuckled, shaking his head.
She looked down, muttering, “Sometimes… you give off a bit of a mad scientist vibe.”
Tony laughed, “First time I’ve heard that! So what do you say?” Tony asked like a sketchy business partner.
“Can I have a moment to think about it?”
“Sure, no problem, take all the time you need” Tony said reassuring her as he went towards the starting line as he was next.
Just as Tony headed back toward the starting line for his turn, he caught Melissa muttering with a grin, “And the playboy strikes again.”
He turned, rolling his eyes playfully as she flashed him an innocent smile, as if she’d said nothing at all.
Tony took his place at the starting line, joining Iida, Kirishima, Momo, and Sato. His symbiote, Malware, engulfed him, causing his frame to grow in size, making his already impressive physique look even more intimidating. Kirishima’s eyes sparkled with admiration. “Dude, you look so manly!” he exclaimed, practically vibrating with excitement.
Momo gave Tony a wry smile. “Would it be too much to ask you to go easy on us?”
Tony smirked, cracking his neck. “Oh, you’re adorable. I’m about to completely wreck you all.”
The starting signal blared, but before any of them had even taken a step, Tony had already disappeared. He reappeared in an instant, standing beside All Might with a smug grin, staring up at a camera capturing the whole event.
“Wha–?” Midoriya’s jaw dropped.
“How…?” Iida stammered, adjusting his glasses in disbelief.
“I didn’t even see him move!” Kaminari added, his eyes wide.
Todoroki turned to Melissa, sensing she had the answer. “What did he do?”
Melissa sighed, massaging her temples. “He traveled at light speed. That’s why you couldn’t see him.”
A chorus of “WHAT!?” erupted from the students, their jaws dropping in unison as Tony gave a triumphant salute.

I hope there a lot of in school chapters

You could make a good deal with Uraraka, partly improving her suit and giving her better protection but not ruling out agility, and for the time being also transferring a good amount to her for the opportunity to study her Quirk.
