Detection
Shoto Todoroki's father is Endeavor, who is ranked second on the leaderboard and stands at the top of the Pro Hero. His name is so famous that everyone knows him. However, very few people reveal anything about his family.
On the night after the Sports Festival ended, Jilan had a brief encounter with Endeavor. The person Endeavor was chasing exploded silently right in front of him, and afterwards, Endeavor questioned Jilan about the incident at the police station.
Although he didn't suspect that Jilan was the murderer, he had personally witnessed Jilan's "Killer Queen" explosion. The cautious Jilan naturally secretly marked him as a potential enemy and used various channels to search for information about Endeavor. The result surprised Jilan greatly; once what he uncovered was made public, it could even overwhelm Endeavor with public opinion.
Of course, Jilan 'Endeavor opposition to Jilan, since Endeavor is still an important fighting force.
Endeavor's marriage to his lover was not based on love, but on "Quirk". Endeavor was looking for someone to marry who could create the strongest Quirk child with him, hoping that the child would surpass him All Might to become the number one Pro Hero. The person he chose was Shoto Todoroki's mother, who possessed the Ice Quirk.
Endeavor had four children. One of them disappeared for some unknown reason, leaving three children: two boys and one girl. Shoto Todoroki was the youngest and also the one with the strongest Quirk. Although the other two children inherited their parents' Quirk, they all had some flaws and could not satisfy Endeavor.
He had always neglected the other two people in his family, focusing all his attention on Shoto Todoroki. Shoto Todoroki had carried Endeavor's high expectations since childhood, and had always been the top student in his grade. Even at U.A. High School talented students, he was still the most outstanding one in Class A.
Although the specifics are unknown, the scars on Shoto Todoroki's face appear to have been burned by his mother. Afterwards, Todoroki's mother was sent to a mental hospital for treatment by Endeavor, who prevented her from seeing him again. Because of this incident, Todoroki has always been very hostile towards Endeavor, until after the Sports Festival and his match against Midoriya, when he reconciled with his father and regained the ability to use fire.
However, verbal reconciliation is easy; in reality, Shoto Todoroki has never forgiven his father. Jilan can tell this from the fact that Todoroki's mother is still in a mental hospital and has not returned home.
To quickly become stronger in a short period of time, one must either turn to the dark side or use cheat codes. Shoto Todoroki has a father who is ranked second on the leaderboard, a powerful Quirk, and a tragic past... He fits the bill for a cheat code user. Once he resolves his inner conflicts, he should be able to reach the top ten in the leaderboard.
However, Jilan could only offer a few words of advice; the specifics would ultimately depend on Todoroki himself. After all, Jilan couldn't possibly conjure up his long-lost, supposedly dead brother and have him shout that he would kill Todoroki's entire family in front of him, causing Shoto Todoroki to be mentally stimulated and go into a frenzy.
Such a plot, which only appears in action-packed manga, could never happen in reality... right?
Momo Yaoyorozu's training was both easy and difficult. She needed to eat while converting the calories from the food into fat to continuously create things, thus training her Quirk activation speed. But in Jilan's opinion, this was just testing Yaoyorozu's digestive system and didn't really help her create things.
Yaoyorozu and Jilan have similar Quirk; both are the type that need to improvise. What she lacks is not the speed of creating Quirk, but the judgment of what to create in what situation and the understanding of the structure of objects.
Jilan couldn't bear to see the food go to waste and turn into useless Russia nesting dolls, so she approached Shota Aizawa and offered her suggestion: instead of turning Yaoyorozu those meaningless nesting dolls, why not familiarize her with various things and let her create something useful? For example... that tactical goggles for American Shorthair.
Yaoyorozu has already analyzed the cognitive chip placed on the Earth Beast. She can create one in a little time. If she can analyze the tactical visor, Jilan can install this chip on the split-type Sheer Heart Attack, allowing them to identify enemies and track and explode like ordinary Sheer Heart Attack.
This means that Jilan can use multiple autonomous tracking vehicles at once, which can turn the tide when facing a large number of enemies!
Jilan had this ulterior motive in mind, Shota Aizawa agreed to it. However, when Jilan found American Shorthair and wanted to borrow her tactical goggles, she was stingy and refused to lend them to her.
"I won't lend it to you!" The American Shorthair's tail stood straight up as it looked at Jilan. "This contains the location information of the Earth Beast I placed. You've already taken control of three of my Earth Beast, and now you want to take the rest too?! Don't push your luck with cats!"
"I was just asking, there's no need for such a big reaction..." Jilan said helplessly.
Mandalay smoothed Tsuburaba: "Jilan, she's a bit neurotic, don't take it to heart. If the eyepiece can help with Momo Yaoyorozu's training, I'm sure she'd be very happy to... right?"
Seeing the reproachful look from its captain, Mandalay, the American Shorthair reluctantly nodded, handing the tactical goggles to Jilan with a heavy hand, and adding, "This support equipment is very expensive. If you break it, you'll have to pay me a lot of money!"
Jilan nodded with a wry smile. Anyway, with Yaoyorozu in assets, she certainly wouldn't be stingy with the tuition fees.
Watching Jilan Jiyu's retreating figures, the American Shorthair was still somewhat unwilling. She whispered to a green-haired girl beside her, "Ragdoll, can you help me figure out what this guy's weakness is?"
The Ragdoll shook its head in refusal. "That's not a good idea... He's not an enemy, it's immoral to do that."
The American Shorthair patiently explained, "Think of it this way: he's a student who came to ask us for training, right? Finding his weaknesses is actually helping him, making up for his shortcomings. He should be thanking us!"
"Eh, is that so?" The Ragdoll was persuaded by her words and nodded thoughtfully, using its "Search" Quirk to target Jilan.
Ragdoll is a member of the Pussycats quartet. Her Quirk, "Search," allows her to see clearly the information about anyone she sees, including their Quirk and weaknesses, making her a core member of the team.
The moment the Ragdoll's Quirk was focused on Jilan felt a spying gaze on his back, and at that moment he felt as if the world had stopped.
--"Bang."
A faint sound of something being blown up rang in Jilan's ears. The next moment, the world resumed its motion, and the cacophony of sounds flooded back into his ears, as if he had only experienced a hallucination before.
Jilan looked around and saw that no one had any unusual expression on their face; everyone was training enthusiastically.
Was it just my imagination...? Jilan shook her head, stopped thinking about it, and walked towards Momo Yaoyorozu.
"Ragdoll, have you found anything?" the American Shorthair asked expectantly.
"Jilan Jiyu, Quirk: Hamon, which can enhance physical abilities. Its weakness is that it must keep breathing to use its Quirk. If you can make it stop breathing, you can easily defeat it..." The Ragdoll read the information it saw, American Shorthair sighed with some disappointment after hearing it.
"What? Everyone has that kind of weakness. Once he stops breathing, he's dead. I was wondering if he had a fatal weakness like that crow-headed boy, but now it seems there's no way to exploit it..."
"Isn't having no weaknesses a good thing?" The Ragdoll glanced at the American Shorthair with a puzzled look, then turned and left, rubbing its head and muttering to itself, "But, it's so strange, it feels like something's missing from the data..."
