001 - Danger Ahead
The street was busy, filled with people coming and going.
Among them was a boy in a plain white T-shirt, black shorts, and sandals, strolling along with a relaxed look on his face.
The boy was handsome, almost like he had stepped out of a manga. What drew the most attention, though, was the sword slung at his waist. His name was Yuto Kanzaki.
He had been reborn in the world of My Hero Academia.
The sword at his waist was Wado Ichimonji. Its design was simple and plain, with none of the presence expected of a famous blade. Even so, it faintly carried a deadly edge.
But this sword was worth a billion yen, and even money could not easily buy it. It was a blade that hid its true value.
Wado Ichimonji looked ordinary. No one would think a teenage boy would carry a blade worth a billion yen while shopping.
After all, Wado Ichimonji was a famous blade from One Piece, one of the Twenty-One Great Grade Swords and one of Roronoa Zoro's swords.
Now, it belonged to him.
As a fifteen-year-old who had just been reborn into this world, there was no way he could afford a famous blade worth a billion yen.
After arriving in this world, he had also received a system, and Wado Ichimonji was the blade the system had given him.
At the same time, the system had given Yuto the Gura Gura no Mi, the training methods for Haki, and Roronoa Zoro's swordsmanship training method.
Of course, he still needed to train before he could fully control those skills.
In the world of My Hero Academia, the League of Villains existed, along with all kinds of criminals with Quirks... and unknown enemies. Danger was everywhere, so he needed to master these skills as soon as possible.
"Snap!"
A sound like glass breaking rang out.
Yuto pressed his palm against the air. Glass-like cracks appeared in the space in front of him, and he murmured, "So this is the power of the Gura Gura no Mi?"
The Gura Gura no Mi was a Paramecia-type Devil Fruit, known as the power to destroy the world and considered the strongest Paramecia.
Suddenly, a blue light screen appeared in his mind, filled with data.

"Yuu-kun, are you out shopping too?"
A familiar voice called out. Yuto turned and saw a cute girl with short brown hair, wearing a sailor uniform and black tights.
The girl was his neighbor, Ochaco Uraraka.
He smiled despite himself. "I just came out for a walk. Uraraka, what are you doing?"
"I'm going to take a look at U.A."
Ochaco shyly scratched the back of her head.
"Really? Uraraka-chan, are you planning to apply to U.A.?"
Yuto smiled faintly. "Mm." Ochaco's cheeks turned pink. She lowered her head slightly and fidgeted with her fingers, looking unsure of herself. "Um... I want to become a hero and make a lot of money, so I can make my parents' lives a little easier. But U.A. is the best hero school. It's going to be really hard to get in."
Yuto lightly patted her brown hair. "Don't worry, Uraraka-chan. You'll get into U.A. High School."
Ochaco immediately looked at Yuto, her eyes bright with excitement. She clenched her fists, suddenly fired up. "Yuu-kun, you're even stronger than me. You're going to take the U.A. High School exam too, right? If you go, you'll pass."
Yuto smiled back but did not say anything.
U.A. High School, huh?
Maybe going to U.A. High School would let him master his skills faster. It was worth considering.
"Boom! Boom!"
A series of loud booms came from up ahead.
The crowd on the street began to panic, fear on every face.
People all over the street began running for their lives, straight toward Yuto.
"There's a dangerous villain up ahead."
Ochaco looked ahead nervously, clearly conflicted.
She wanted to attend U.A. High School one day. How could she back down at a time like this?
She bit her lip and said, "Yuu-kun, wait here. I'll go up ahead and take a look."
She ran forward before he could stop her.
As the explosions ahead grew more intense, thick smoke and dust kept rising into the air. The crowd's cries and shouts grew more chaotic. Yuto sighed.
He watched her run ahead and pressed a hand to his forehead.
Then he quickly followed her. With her Quirk alone, she would probably have trouble facing a powerful villain.
