The wind moved quietly across the training field.
Yet… no one felt at peace.
A strange pressure lingered in the air, pressing against their chests.
In front of them stood one man.
Mark Uzumaki.
The one who would decide their future.
He looked at them—not as students…
…but as weapons yet to be sharpened.
"From today…" his voice was calm, yet carried weight,
"…you are no longer just learners."
A pause.
The air tightened.
"You are heroes."
Some felt excitement rise within them.
Others… felt fear creeping in.
But Thierry—
Remained still.
His eyes steady. His breathing controlled.
Not shaken.
Not rushed.
Like someone who already understood the weight of those words.
Far Away… Beyond the Reach of Earth
Cold.
Silent.
Endless darkness.
Floating in the void of space, a hidden laboratory echoed with faint, desperate screams.
Bodies collapsed one after another.
Failures.
"They're dying too fast…" Yuna said, her voice laced with irritation.
Her eyes showed exhaustion… but also obsession.
Behind her, Jayson stood still, watching everything with calm precision.
"They knew the risk," he replied coldly.
"Continue."
Yuna clicked her tongue.
"…I only have three humans left."
Silence fell.
Then—
One of the bodies twitched.
A small movement.
Barely noticeable.
But Jayson saw it.
Always watching.
The body began to shake violently.
Bones cracking.
Muscles expanding unnaturally.
The air grew heavy—
Then suddenly—
BOOOOOM!!
The transformation exploded outward.
The human… was gone.
In its place stood a towering creature, its body radiating overwhelming strength.
Its breathing alone distorted the air around it.
Yuna's eyes widened.
Jayson… smiled faintly.
"…Marvelous."
The creature slowly lifted its head.
Its glowing eyes locked onto them.
Waiting.
"We can use it," Yuna said, a smirk forming.
Jayson stepped forward slightly.
"No…"
A pause.
His gaze sharpened.
"…we will test it."
He looked directly at the creature.
"On Earth."
Silence.
Then—
"From now on… your name is Diddy."
The creature's voice was deep. Heavy.
"…Understood… master."
"Your mission is simple."
Jayson's lips curved slightly.
"Destroy everything."
A brief pause—
"…including humans."
No hesitation.
"As you wish."
Earth – A Peace That Would Not Last
The city was alive.
People laughed. Cars moved. Life continued.
Normal.
Until—
The sky darkened.
A shadow fell.
And then—
BOOOOOOM!!!
The ground shattered as Diddy descended from above.
Buildings trembled.
Windows shattered.
Screams filled the streets.
Panic spread instantly.
And Diddy…
Took a single step forward.
Everything in front of him broke.
Hero Headquarters
An alarm pierced through the air.
Sharp. Urgent.
Everyone froze.
Then— Footsteps.
Calm.Heavy.
Mark Uzumaki stepped forward.
The room fell silent instantly.
"Hero Elemental Force…"
His voice echoed like a command carved into reality.
"…mission is ON."
The tension rose immediately.
"Sensei," Thierry stepped forward slightly,
"what's happening?"
Mark didn't hesitate.
"A creature has appeared in the city."
A pause.
His next words hit harder.
"It's killing people."
Silence.
Then—
Arashi's eyes sharpened.
"…Then we stop it."
Brian swallowed slightly.
"Do we all go?"
Andrea shook her head.
"That might be dangerous…"
Mark observed them.
Not their words—
Their reactions.
Their readiness.
Then he spoke.
"Thierry. Arashi. Brian."
The three stepped forward.
"You will handle the creature."
The weight of responsibility settled instantly.
But none of them stepped back.
"The rest of you—protect the civilians."
"Yes, sensei!"
Mark raised his hand.
"Move."
The City – Where Destruction Reigned
Smoke filled the sky.
Flames spread across buildings.
The ground was cracked, broken—
Destroyed.
And in the center of it all…
Stood Diddy.
Unmoving.
Unstoppable.
Then—
Three figures landed.
The ground cracked beneath their feet.
Thierry.
Arashi.
Brian.
No words were needed.
Only understanding.
Arashi stepped forward.
Lightning began to form around his arm.
Crackling. Growing.
"Let's see what you are."
His eyes sharpened.
"Thunder Punch."
BOOOOOM!!!
The удар exploded on impact.
Shockwaves spread violently.
Dust swallowed the battlefield.
For a moment…
Nothing moved.
Then—
A voice.
Calm.
Unbothered.
"…Not bad."
The dust cleared.
Diddy stood exactly where he was.
Unmoved.
Untouched.
Thierry's eyes narrowed slightly.
"…It talks."
Arashi exhaled slowly.
"…And it's strong."
Diddy's gaze locked onto them.
Cold.
Empty.
"I will destroy you."
No emotion.
Just certainty.
Speed Beyond Reaction
Without warning—
Diddy opened his mouth.
Energy gathered instantly.
BOOOOOOM!!!
A massive blast shot forward.
The three scattered—
Dodging just in time.
But—
Something felt wrong.
Too quiet.
Too fast.
He disappeared.
Brian's eyes widened.
"…Where did he—"
BAM!!!
The удар landed before the thought finished.
Thierry's body folded from the impact.
Air exploded outward.
Then—
CRASH!!!
He was launched into a building.
Concrete shattered.
Dust filled the air.
Brian froze.
"…That was too fast."
Arashi clenched his fist.
"Thierry!"
Silence.
Then—
The rubble shifted.
Slowly…
Thierry stepped out.
Dust falling from his shoulders.
His breathing steady.
His eyes calm.
"…I'm fine."
A pause.
Then, quietly—
"I've felt worse."
But inside—
He understood.
This enemy… is different.
Adaptation
Diddy raised his hand again.
Dark energy gathered, compressing violently.
"You are already weakening."
The attack launched.
Massive.
Heavy.
But this time—
They were ready.
They moved.
Together.
Dodging with precision.
But Diddy followed.
Relentless.
Faster.
Stronger.
Each attack pushed them back.
Step by step.
Pressure rising.
Arashi gritted his teeth.
"We can't keep reacting!"
Brian nodded.
"We need direction!"
Thierry watched.
Carefully.
Every movement.
Every pattern.
Then—
He spoke.
Calm.
Certain.
"Follow my lead."
Something changed.
Their movements aligned.
Timing improved.
Diddy attacked again—
But now—
They responded.
The Counter
Diddy launched another barrage.
Explosions filled the air.
But through the chaos—
Thierry moved.
Smooth.
Precise.
Untouchable.
Then—
He vanished.
For a split second—
Even Diddy lost sight.
BAM!!!
A clean удар landed.
Diddy was driven into the ground.
The impact cracked the street apart.
Arashi smirked slightly.
"…That's more like it."
Brian nodded.
"That's our leader."
But—
Diddy stood again.
Slowly.
And then—
He smiled.
True Power Unleashed
His body began to change.
Shrinking—
But his aura…
Expanded.
Violently.
Energy erupted from him.
The ground beneath him collapsed.
Two massive wings tore out from his back.
The air itself trembled.
"This… is my true form."
Thierry felt it.
That pressure.
That weight.
His eyes sharpened.
"…So this is your real power."
The End Begins
Diddy raised his hand toward the sky.
Energy gathered.
Faster.
Denser.
More violent.
A massive burning sphere formed above them—
Fire.
Metal.
Destruction condensed into one point.
The city shook beneath it.
"DARK… BREAKER!!!"
Thierry's eyes locked onto it.
If that falls… everything is gone.
Then—
Two figures stepped forward.
Without hesitation.
Awakening of Power
Brian's voice echoed.
"Leviathan… God of Marine Water Armor."
Water surged around him.
Armor formed.
Heavy. Majestic.
Power flowing endlessly.
Arashi stepped forward.
Lightning exploded outward.
"Ramuh… God of Lightning Armor."
Thunder roared.
Energy danced around him.
Both stood in front of Thierry.
Side by side.
Unshaken.
Arashi glanced slightly.
"…We've got this."
Brian smiled.
"Let's finish it."
Thierry looked at them.
Then forward.
Calm.
The battlefield had already been reduced to ruins, the air thick with dust and fading energy, yet the final clash had only just begun. Brian stepped forward, his presence sharp and focused as power surged violently around him, water spiraling at high speed. "Ultimate Hyper Shuriken!" he roared, his voice cutting through the chaos as a massive spinning shuriken formed—its surface rippling like a raging ocean. Without hesitation, he launched it forward, the ground cracking beneath the pressure. At the same time, Arashi's body erupted in lightning, bolts snapping wildly across his skin as his eyes narrowed with deadly precision. "Ultimate Thunder Blast Tornado!" he shouted, releasing a storm of pure electricity that twisted forward like a raging dragon.
For a split second, the two attacks moved separately… then collided.
The moment they merged, the atmosphere itself distorted. The fusion of water and lightning gave birth to something far more terrifying—Ultimate Shuriken Thunder Blast. It screamed through the air at impossible speed, tearing everything in its path apart as it locked onto Diddy. Even Thierry, standing at a distance, felt the sheer weight of that power and let out a quiet breath. "So this is their limit…"
Diddy's expression twisted as darkness surged around him. "Dark Breaker!" he roared, unleashing a violent wave of black energy to counter the attack.
The collision was catastrophic.
Light and darkness exploded against each other, shaking the entire battlefield as shockwaves ripped through the surroundings. The combined attack pushed forward relentlessly, crushing the Dark Breaker little by little until, finally—
It broke.
Diddy's power shattered completely. His body trembled as the overwhelming force consumed him, throwing him back and forcing him out of his transformed state. He dropped to the ground, breathing heavily, his strength gone.
Arashi stepped forward, lightning fading from his body. "It's over."
Brian followed, his voice calm but firm. "Now you're the one who falls."
But Diddy's eyes burned with desperation. "If I go down… you all go with me!" he screamed, forcing out the last of his energy into one final blast aimed directly at them.
Everything happened in an instant.
Before the attack could reach them—Thierry moved.
He appeared in front of Diddy without a sound, his expression calm, almost cold. In that single moment, all the chaos seemed to pause. Then—
BOOM.
His fist connected.
A single, perfectly timed punch shattered the last of Diddy's resistance, completely overpowering the blast and ending the fight in one decisive strike. The impact echoed across the battlefield as Diddy collapsed, defeated.
Silence followed.
"It's over… for good," Thierry said quietly.
The energy surrounding Brian and Arashi faded as they both exhaled, exhaustion finally catching up to them. Brian looked around at the destroyed battlefield, then smiled slightly. "We actually did it…"
"We saved the city," Arashi added.
As the dust settled, Arashi's eyes suddenly narrowed. "Thierry… your arm."
A deep wound had formed, clearly from the earlier explosion.
Thierry glanced at it briefly, then looked away. "Don't worry about it. It's nothing."
"You call that nothing?" Arashi muttered, but before he could continue, Andria and the others rushed onto the scene.
"Guys! Are you alright?" Andria asked, her voice filled with worry.
"We're fine… just tired," Arashi replied.
Brian, despite everything, grinned. "I might need a kiss to recover though."
Andria shot him a look. "Not now, Brian. Look at Thierry's arm."
Homura stepped forward, still stunned. "That power earlier… how did you even do that?"
Brian crossed his arms slightly, still catching his breath. "It was a combination of my power and Arashi's… Ultimate Shuriken Thunder Blast."
Arashi nodded. "Yeah… and it was insane."
Mobi let out a long breath. "Looks like we survived our first real mission."
"Barely," Homura added. "Let's get Thierry back to headquarters."
Andria nodded immediately. "Yeah… before it gets worse."
Back at the Hero Elemental Headquarters, the atmosphere shifted from chaos to relief. Master Dr. Mark Uzumaki carefully treated Thierry, restoring his injured arm completely.
"You've done well," Mark said, adjusting his glasses slightly. "Your teamwork… especially that combination attack… is something rare."
The group stood together as they explained everything, from the battle to the awakening of Brian and Arashi's combined power.
"You're all growing faster than I expected," Mark continued. "Thierry is fully healed now."
A wave of relief spread through the team.
Still, Andria looked down slightly. "Not everyone made it…"
Brian gently placed a hand on her shoulder. "You did everything you could."
She gave a small nod.
Arashi then spoke up. "Sensei… controlling that much power… it's not easy."
Mark smiled faintly. "Of course it isn't. But with time, you'll master it."
Even Homura and Thierry, who didn't rely on powers the same way, stood firm.
"Power alone doesn't make someone a hero," Thierry said calmly.
Mark nodded in agreement. "Exactly."
Then, suddenly, Mark spoke again. "There's one more thing… something important."
The team looked at him.
"You need a leader."
The room fell silent before quickly turning chaotic with small arguments and jokes. Brian tried to act confident but was immediately shut down by Andria.
"You? Leader? You'd turn missions into a joke."
"Hey!" Brian protested.
But then—Arashi stepped forward.
"I already know who it should be."
The room quieted instantly.
"Someone who stays calm… someone who protects everyone no matter what… someone who acts when it matters most."
Slowly, everyone's eyes turned to one person.
Thierry.
"You should be our leader," Brian said seriously this time.
"I agree," Andria added. "You're the best choice."
"You guide us," Homura said.
"You're already doing it," Mobi nodded.
Arashi looked at him. "So… what do you say?"
Thierry was silent for a moment. Then he exhaled softly.
"…Alright. I'll do it."
At that moment, Mark smiled. "Then it's decided."
The team stood together, stronger than before.
"Thierry is our captain."
Thierry looked at all of them, his expression steady. "I won't let any of you down."
Their first enemy had fallen.
Their first mission was complete.
And now… they had a leader.
But this was only the beginning.
Because ahead of them—
far greater battles… and far greater destinies… awaited.
