What a Weak "Boss"

Inside the warehouse, in a gap between a pile of crates, Uraraka Shige stood on the concrete floor, slightly out of breath.

Before him lay a middle-aged man lying on the cold ground, blood still trickling from his nostrils, and another middle-aged man standing there, clutching the back of his neck with one hand, looking back at him. He was obese and his skin gleamed slightly oily under the dim warehouse lights.

"Damn idiot, didn't they say he wouldn't wake up for a long time? What a piece of trash!"

This obese middle-aged man was wearing a suit that was stretched to its limit, with a pure white tie around his neck. Through the unbuttoned collar, one could see that under the suit was a semi-transparent garment soaked with sweat, which even 'shimmered' under the light, making him look like a greasy, fat penguin.

At this moment, the penguin first complained bitterly about the gang leader who had been ambushed by Uraraka Shige and was lying on the ground. Then he glared at Uraraka Shige and said some harsh words, trying to crush Uraraka Shige's fighting spirit and morale.

"You wretched brat! If you had just sneaked away, you might have caused me a lot of trouble. But you dared to show yourself and ambush me? You're really asking for death."

However, this penguin had no idea how comical and ridiculous it was that his eyes, which were originally small due to the fat on his face, suddenly bulged out.

Because at this moment, he was also somewhat shocked by Uraraka Shige's attack power.

'Is this really a nine-and-a-half-year-old brat?! If I didn't have enough subcutaneous fat, that punch would probably have given me a concussion and knocked me unconscious on the spot!'

Uraraka Shige had no idea what this guy was thinking at the moment, but the words that Mr. Penguin used for psychological tactics had no effect on Uraraka Shige. After all, he was not an ordinary kid with only nine and a half years of experience; he was a guy who was old but new.

At this moment, Uraraka Shige was also feeling somewhat unprepared for his earlier rash sneak attack, because he had not expected that this seemingly fat man could withstand his full-force punch aimed at a vital spot simply because of the thick fat around his neck.

Therefore, in response to Mr. Penguin's words, he replied with a sarcastic remark.

"You're incredibly thick-skinned! Are you some kind of wild Mr. Pig?!"

A short, unvarnished sentence successfully hit the penguin's sore spot, and the Fat Penguin, whom Uraraka Shige called Mr. Pig, instantly flew into a rage. He was the one who first used words to mock the child Uraraka Shige, but it was the adult who was provoked into anger by Uraraka Shige's words.

Of course, it's also possible that this Fat Penguin was deliberately feigning weakness to outmaneuver the enemy.

In short, Mr. Fat Penguin was furious at this moment, like a heavily armored tank. He opened his arms and ran towards where Uraraka Shige was standing, intending to grab Uraraka Shige and hold him in his arms. With his weight advantage, once he captured Uraraka Shige, it would be extremely difficult for Uraraka Shige to escape.

In Uraraka Shige's eyes, given the penguin's size and weight, every step he took gave him the illusion that the ground was shaking.

Uraraka Shige showed no surprise, fear, or arrogance at the penguin's angry and seemingly irrational behavior and reaction. Perhaps she didn't consider that the Fat Penguin might be acting on purpose, or perhaps she did consider it but didn't care.

Upon seeing Mr. Fat Penguin open his arms as if to hug him, he cautiously used his light weight and agility, along with his 'Quirk', to nimbly and quickly climb onto a pile of crates nearby. Then, just as Mr. Penguin reached out to grab him, he leaped onto Mr. Penguin's back.

Then, just as Mr. Penguin turned around, taking advantage of the moment when she was still behind him, she used her Quirk to amplify the power of her next attack, delivering a vicious groin punch to Mr. Penguin's groin. This caused Mr. Penguin, who was probably relying on his thick skin and not paying much attention to Uraraka Shige's attack, to let out a miserable cry of pain.

Yes, it looks painful; it's truly tragic.

Although Uraraka Shige's series of actions did not seem elegant, and could even be said to be devoid of any beauty, there is no doubt that his series of actions were extremely effective. This can be seen from the fact that after the penguin cried out for a long time, his voice gradually became low and hoarse, until finally he covered his groin and opened his mouth wide, and fainted in a posture that resembled the famous painting called 'The Scream'.

"Tsk, that damn height..."

Uraraka Shige complained bitterly about the result, saying that his height had been sacrificed as the price for becoming stronger.

"Otherwise, I wouldn't need to use such a despicable move as the groin punch..."

Uraraka Shige set aside the two unconscious men and continued walking in the direction they had come from, muttering to himself as he went.

"Wouldn't a groin kick be better? I wouldn't have to touch that lump of flesh with my bare hands. I'm a straight man, ugh! Disgusting."

The Fat Penguin who had already fainted hadn't spoken loudly, which told Uraraka Shige that there was no one else in the warehouse. Although the Fat Penguin had let out a loud wail before losing consciousness, Uraraka Shige hadn't heard any other sounds from outside the warehouse until now. Therefore, it could be confirmed that there was no one else outside the warehouse.

Having confirmed that he was safe, Uraraka Shige no longer concealed himself. Instead, he walked freely and openly, as if he were in his own home, quickly making his way through the passageways between the piles of crates in the warehouse.

Suddenly, the crisp sound of footsteps echoed once again inside the warehouse.

Along with it came a phrase that lingered in the air.

"I never imagined my underlings were so weak, and now this so-called 'boss' is just a coward... Am I just too strong?"

Hmm, this was probably a joke Uraraka Shige played on her to ease her worries about Ochaco, right?
