Homesick

To be honest, this game mode is a game mode that gives Uraraka Shige a significant advantage.

Not to mention his steadily improving physical fitness due to his 'Quirk' over the years, his 'Quirk' alone has great potential in this 'Pillar Pacing' game.

His opponent was a creature with a shapeshifting Quirk, capable of transforming his hands into beast-like claws. Despite being tough, strong, and powerful, this quirk was not particularly advantageous in a game that favored agility.

After the match started, Uraraka Shige didn't go after his opponent. Instead, he immediately found his target and started walking quickly.

Because of the advantage that Uraraka Shige's 'Quirk' gives him in this match, he can keep himself ahead of his opponent the whole time. Therefore, he naturally doesn't need to interfere with his opponent.

However, his opponent clearly knew that his 'Quirk' was not suitable for the game mode of this match. Therefore, the choices that Uraraka Shige's opponent made after the start of the match were exactly the opposite of what Uraraka Shige did.

This guy immediately started moving towards Uraraka Shige and activated his 'Quirk' to transform his arms into beast form, using his thicker, larger, and longer arms after activating his 'Quirk' to harass Uraraka Shige relentlessly.

Uraraka Shige was momentarily overwhelmed by the harassment and nearly had his leg grabbed, almost causing him to lose his footing and fall off the pillar. In the end, he managed to regain his balance by activating his 'Quirk' at the critical moment and making a slight adjustment to the Gravity he was experiencing.

After that, Uraraka Shige realized that his opponent didn't want him to win easily, so even though using his 'Quirk' to influence his opponent would distract him and slow down his pace, he still did it.

After harassing Uraraka Shige off a pillar, his opponent took advantage of the moment when Uraraka Shige regained his balance and quickly advanced two steps. Originally, Uraraka Shige was going to be a pillar's length ahead of him, but he took the opportunity to overtake him and ended up being a pillar's length behind him.

Uraraka Shige then regained his balance. Uraraka Shige's opponent once again stretched out his arms, attempting to harass Uraraka Shige in the same way, but Uraraka Shige his 'Quirk' to subtly adjust the force and direction of the Gravity acting on him, causing the guy to lose his balance immediately after stretching out his arms.

The sudden loss of balance resulted in a person moving forward on the pillar, only to suddenly slip and fall into thin air.

If this guy hadn't also been trying to harass Uraraka Shige by stretching out his arms, and hadn't happened to open his arms, he would have been able to brace himself against a pillar as he fell, successfully stabilizing his body.

Otherwise, this guy would definitely fall straight to the ground. Even if his 'Quirk' is very good at climbing, by the time he climbs back up the pillar, Uraraka Shige would be at least five or six pillars ahead of him. In that case, he would no longer be able to harass Uraraka Shige, and the outcome of the match would become a foregone conclusion.

However, this ultimately did not happen.

Therefore, he did not fall to the ground. After adjusting his body and standing up from the pillar, Uraraka Shige only went from being one pillar behind him to being two pillars ahead.

The distance between them was no more than one meter.

It was still within the range that this guy could barely harass after using his 'Quirk' beast-like arm.

However, all this guy could do was occasionally use his fingernails to snag on Uraraka Shige's clothes, a meager attempt at harassment.

The only impact on Uraraka Shige was that she needed to be a little more careful about the force coming from her clothes when walking, and try to break free from her opponent's fingernails that were snagging on her clothes as soon as possible.

In the end, Uraraka Shige undoubtedly emerged victorious.

However, after reaching the finish line, Uraraka Shige suddenly began to complain about the rules of the game, wondering why it had to be a race walk. If she could run or jump, she probably would have reached the finish line much earlier.

He clearly selectively forgot that if the game wasn't restricted to race walking, then the existence of 'Quirk' would make it extremely unfair, and it wouldn't be used as one of the game modes for competitions.

After getting off the pillar, Uraraka Shige found a relatively quiet spot and began to quietly observe the other trainees who would be participating in the 'Individual Competition'. However, since Uraraka Shige was already one of the later participants in the 'Individual Competition', she didn't have much time to observe before the last match of the 'Individual Competition' ended.

Furthermore, since this 'individual competition' is merely a set of rules for the 'large-scale team competition,' the winners and losers of each round do not need to participate in a new round of selection, elimination, or revival competitions. Instead, the scores of the two large teams in the 'individual competition' are calculated directly based on the number of victories of the members of the 'Snake' and 'Beast' teams.

The 'individual competition' has come to an end.

The next event was the 'team competition', but Uraraka Shige did not register for this event and therefore did not carefully observe the participants. Instead, he found a quiet corner and went to be alone.

However, Uraraka Shige didn't get to enjoy a quiet time by herself for very long.

Because after the 'team competition' was halfway through, that big, simple-minded guy surnamed Gu Yu came over, so Uraraka Shige stopped 'enjoying the peace and quiet' and started chatting with this big, simple-minded guy whom she actually liked.

Ultimately, through this conversation, Uraraka Shige learned the true reason behind the "foolish" big guy's so-called "prison escape," and as a result, she suddenly missed her parents in this life and Ochaco sister in this life.

"You mean... you were homesick, told that smart bastard, and he told you to do that?"

This reason made Uraraka Shige a little confused, because that smart kid was the second most Uraraka Shige Beast Group '... the first was this 'silly' big guy... He couldn't understand why this smart kid would do this.

The time that Uraraka Shige could use to think about this problem was extremely limited, as the 'team competition' was about to end and the final competition event, the 'team competition', was about to begin.
