Nirengeki ends up in team 5-B with Yui Kodai, Reiko Yanagi, and Neito Monoma against Izuku Midoriya, Ochaco Uraraka, Mina Ashido, and Minoru Mineta.

Hitoshi Shinso from Class 1-C is later put onto their team. When Neito is quick in trying to befriend Hitoshi so his team can destroy Class 1-A, Nirengeki comments on how Neito takes things too far, so he asks Hitoshi to ignore his outlandish personality. As the matches go on, Nirengeki and his teammates watch Neito with exasperation as he shows further signs of insanity.

After the fourth round, Ningereki and his team discuss the strategy to use against Izuku's team. He comments that Team 5-B should have a strategic plan akin to that of Setsuna's, suggesting that they should conceal themselves in hopes of launching a series of coordinated attacks. When Reiko highlights that Izuku is the main threat, Class 1-B decides that Izuku is their top priority, with Hitoshi and Neito combining their powers to defeat him while the other Ningereki, Reiko, and Yui face Izuku's teammates. Before starting the fight, he allows Neito to copy his Quirk.

The fifth round of the Joint Training Battle commences, class 1-B put their plan in motion. Yui and Reiko combine their Poltergeist and Size to attacks Ochaco, Mina, and Minoru with enlarged objects while he conceals himself and tries to figure out the readings on his scouter. He later assists Yui Kodai and Reiko Yanagi with their assault on Class 1-A. When Ochaco deflects an onslaught of projectiles, but Nirengeki uses his Twin Impact Quirk to add a second wave to the barrage. Class 1-B's attack has helped Nirengeki get a rough idea of Class 1-A's location, so he, Reiko, and Yui continue hiding together to prepare their next attack.

Class 1-B's plan gets interrupted when Izuku suddenly loses control of his Quirk, unleashing black tendrils that destroy multiple sections of the battlefield. Nirengeki and his team watches in shock as Izuku rampages across the battlefield. Fortunately, Hitoshi and Ochaco manage to stop Izuku's out-of-control Quirk, and despite Izuku's chaotic outburst, all of the students are still eager to win the fight, gathering at the same point.

Mina uses her Super Move: Acid Shot, spraying out multiple shots of acid straight towards the opposing team. Yui and Nirengeki struggle to withstand this long-ranged attack. Nirengeki then dashes forward and tosses a circular handle, triggering his Quirk while doing so, the handle immediately homing in on Mina, who appears to be caught off-guard. However, Minoru quickly protects her with his Grape Buckler Super Move.

And as planned, Minoru ends up bumping into Mina's breasts, shocking and disgusting her so she throws the pervert back at 1-B using her Acid Layback. Minoru bounces off his own balls for a Grape-Pinky Combo Mineta Bounce attack. Class 1-B struggles to withstand Minoru's speed as he bounces around the battlefield. Despite this, Nirengeki subdues Minoru with a strong punch to his gut after reading his moves, and Reiko follows up with a metal rain attack on Mina.

Class 1-B begins to gain momentum, but the tables are turned quickly. Izuku captures Hitoshi, and Ochaco manages to lock up Neito and returns to help her teammates. She karate chops Reiko, knocking her out, and pushes Yui into a trap made of Minoru's Pop Off balls. Nirengeki calls out to his teammates in dismay, which gives Mina an opening to uppercut him to save Minoru. Class 1-A’s team manages to turn the battle around as soon Nirengeki, Reiko and Hitoshi have soon joined Neito in the cell.

The Joint Training Battle ends with victory for class 1-A. Despite the fierce competition and the result, the exercise ends on good terms between both classes, and later Class 1-B visits Class 1-A's dormitories for socializing and dinner.
