Picnic

Seeing that the hour hand on his watch had already pointed to four o'clock, Jilan suddenly said, "Sero, could you please climb the tree and check how far we are from the base?"

"Clear!"

Sero responded, and the duct tape on his elbow instantly flew out, wrapping around a thick tree branch above. The next moment, the tape quickly retracted, carrying his body up the branch. Sero used this method to continuously increase his height, and two minutes later, he returned to his original position.

"Squad Leader Jilan, although I don't want to dampen our enthusiasm, at our current speed, it will probably take us three or four hours to reach the base," Sero said with a wry smile.

"Three or four more hours!" Minoru Mineta exclaimed in alarm upon hearing this. Thinking of his bleeding scalp, he said with a mournful face, "Isn't there any other way? I really want to rest!"

"Minoru Mineta, what are you thinking about taking a break at a time like this!" Iida sternly reprimanded Minoru Mineta. "It's only three or four hours, we can't give up halfway!"

"But I really have no motivation to keep going, I'm so hungry!" Minoru Mineta said frantically, clutching his head. "I want to eat something!"

Although Iida wanted to tell Minoru Mineta persevere, he knew he was also starving, and the orange juice he had used up was almost all of his Quirk. He wouldn't be able to use his Quirk for even an hour, let alone three hours.

"... Gurgle," someone's stomach growled.

Everyone looked towards Kirishima, who had made the sound. Kirishima rubbed his stomach and scratched his head sheepishly, "Sorry everyone, I was too excited this morning and left without eating breakfast..."

"Hang in there, everyone!" Uraraka encouraged. "If we just hold on a little longer until we reach the base, there will definitely be food there!"

Before she could finish speaking, Uraraka's stomach rumbled.

Uraraka squatted down on the ground, somewhat ashamed. "I'm sorry everyone, actually I'm starving too..."

At that moment, Yaoyorozu handed Uraraka the chocolate, smiling as she said, "Uraraka, this is chocolate I made using my Quirk. Enjoy!"

"Thank you Yaoyorozu!" Uraraka looked up gratefully, and when she saw Yaoyorozu smiling in front of her, she exclaimed, "Yaoyorozu, you... you've changed so much!"

Yaoyorozu's once-fitting school uniform is now very loose, and the incredibly fit Yaoyorozu has turned into a tomboy!

Yaoyorozu glanced at herself and smiled wryly, "This trial was too sudden. I didn't store any fat beforehand, so..." Yaoyorozu's Quirk is Creation, allowing her to create anything she can understand using her own fat. Due to insufficient preparation, she's now temporarily using the fat available there...

"Yaoyorozu, you actually made such a huge sacrifice..."

Seeing that Uraraka was about to cry, Yaoyorozu quickly said, "As long as I store some fat, this part of me can recover! Don't say anything more, eat quickly!"

"..." Ochaco Uraraka lowered her head, staring silently at the chocolate in her hand. She wasn't eating chocolate, but Yaoyorozu's... she felt a little hesitant to eat it.

"Everyone, I have a suggestion." At this moment, Kyoka Jiro suddenly spoke up, and everyone's attention turned to her.

"I heard through my Quirk that there's a stream about 500 meters away. That stream should have some fish, shrimp, or other marine life, and there should be wild animals in this forest as well," Jiro said calmly. "Since we need food now, why don't we use what we have here?"

Shoto Todoroki reacted quickly, muttering to himself, "My Quirk can generate flames. Now that we've found ingredients, we can totally have a barbecue in this wilderness to replenish our lost energy... This idea is feasible!"

"You can do that!" Kirishima's eyes lit up, and he exclaimed, "Are we going on a picnic? That's amazing!"

Iida also thought it was a good idea, but he hesitated. "Wouldn't doing this go against Mr. Aizawa's wishes? He wants us to reach the base as quickly as possible."

"Don't worry, Iida, there's no problem, absolutely no problem!" Iida put Kaminari arm around Iida's neck and chuckled. "Don't forget, we were originally going to have a 'forest training camp,' just in a different place, but it's definitely in line with the theme! Besides... aren't you starving? Wouldn't it be good to eat something? Do you really want us classmates to be hungry and struggling through the dangerous forest rather than let us replenish our lost energy?"

Iida was persuaded by Kaminari and nodded, "I agree to this."

"So, does anyone object?" Jilan glanced around at the students, seeing the longing in their eyes, and after a pause, continued, "I understand. Since no one objects, then... Jiro, please take us there."

Seeing that everyone had listened to her impromptu idea, Jiro nodded happily. "Leave it to me!"

A few minutes later, the eager group arrived at the stream. The water was crystal clear, and many fish were swimming around, blowing bubbles. Not far away, two ducks were swimming side by side upstream.

Hanta Sero saw the ingredients and his mouth watered. He impatiently wrapped himself in tape, swung over, and left with only one sentence. "I'm going to catch the ducks!"

"Alright, let me catch the fish!" Kirishima was already eager to try.

"I'll help too." Mezo Shoji arms, making him adept at catching fish.

"Wait!" Denki Kaminari stopped them, looking at the fish confidently. "No matter how good you are at catching fish, you can only catch one at a time. The rest will scatter. So, leave this to me. I'll catch them all in one net!"

"Kaminari, you're not thinking of using electricity to fish, are you? Do you want to become that idiot again?" Kyoka Jiro retorted without any politeness.

"It's alright, with Jilan's 'Restore My Restore My Beauty Fist,' even if I turn into an idiot, Jilan can still beat me back!" Kaminari didn't seem to care, instead rolling up his trouser legs. "Besides, Jilan's fist technique actually seems to have made me a bit more handsome. Although my face hurts a bit, I want to get hit a few more times!"

Upon hearing Denki Kaminari's masochistic remarks, Jilan sighed and rubbed his forehead in exasperation.

He told Denki Kaminari that he had turned him back from his idiotic state because of a long-lost technique that could restore the appearance of a disfigured person. Jilan originally just wanted to make a joke and teach him a lesson so that he wouldn't use his full strength recklessly, but he didn't expect that this guy would actually believe it.

Even after Jilan explained to Kaminari that he had used "Life Magnetism Hamon Overdrive" to turn Kaminari's "short-circuited" state into a connected state, which restored him, Kaminari wouldn't listen and insisted that Jilan punch him a few more times.

Kirishima and Shoji, not wanting to get electrocuted, stood on the bank watching the Denki Kaminari step into the stream.

"100,000 Volts!"

After a flash of lightning, all the fish in their area floated to the surface, unconscious, while Denki Kaminari once again appeared in "the posture of the strong," moving sideways like a crab.

"Jilan, are you going to use that fist technique on Kaminari again?" Uraraka asked curiously. She hadn't seen Jilan fight Kaminari before, and if Jilan's "Restore My Beauty Fist" could really make people beautiful, she wanted to try it too.

"Never mind him, let's grill the fish," Jilan replied indifferently.
