Chapter 105

Shiketsu High Lurking is the one hundred and fifth chapter of Kohei Horikoshi's Boku no Hero Academia manga.

Summary
Ochako has landed on rubble and is still recovering from You Shindou's earthquake. Ochako decides not to call out to Class 1-A as that would attract dozens of examinees to her; Being composed, Ochako thinks that the best option is to regroup with her classmates to avoid being ganged up by themselves.

Meanwhile, Kemi notes that in large scale exams, some examinees target certain individuals for information or have enough, such as the case on all of the U.A students. Kemi is one of those individuals who crave information which is why she targeted Izuku as she wants to learn more about U.A. Izuku activates One For All Full Cowl, knowing that talking would only distract him and wonders if her classmates are supporting her or if she is on her own. Kemi throws a ball and a rock, but Izuku effortlessly dodges them. However, Izuku is surprised that the female had disappeared once more. Suddenly, Kemi appears before Izuku and tries throwing another ball at him, but Izuku dodges with his enhanced speed. Izuku prepares to counter attack with one of his balls; however, he realizes that he shouldn't as she disappears the moment he takes his eyes off her. Kemi appears behind Izuku and wonders if Izuku was thinking if she has a vanishing Quirk. The female pushes Izuku down to the ground and pins him, stating that she was simply hiding. Kemi states that her fighting style revolves around concealing her presence; Izuku is surprised that Shiketsu High teaches that kind of fighting style. Having told Izuku some information about her, Kemi asks Izuku what is motivating him for becoming a Hero as she wants to learn more about him.

Izuku uses the power of One For All to blast himself off the ground slightly, causing Kemi to jump away. Seeing that she is distracted, Izuku throws a ball at her, but his ball is deflected by webs protruding from the ground. Izuku and Kemi see that other examinees have arrived. Izuku realizes that the worst case scenario has occurred and decides that his best option is to dodge. Izuku uses One For All Full Cowl to dodge the onslaught of Quirk attacks from the other examinees. Ochako suddenly appears and calls out to him, causing Izuku to think that she has a plan.

Suddenly, other examinees approach Ochako; Ochako becomes surprised and annoyed by this, which forced her to take a step back, this made her to lost her footing, which caused her to fall. Izuku begins thinking about all of his regrets; if he hadn't broken his arms, Izuku could have saved Katsuki and the fight between All Might and All For One would not have occurred, if he had been faster than the Vanguard Action Squad. Izuku notes that his speed would have allowed him to make all the difference which is why he has changed his fighting style to revolve around speed and training his legs.

Using One For Full Cowl: Shoot Style, Izuku sprints towards Ochako and saves her from falling. Having saved Ochako, Izuku swears to himself that until his body is ready, he will not use One For All 100%. To make up for his lack of power, Izuku has iron soles that empower the impact of his kicks with a blow back-like movement. Izuku uses One For All Full Cowl: Shoot Style and shatters the footing the other examinees are on with a iron sole empowered kick. As the examinees lose their footing and are distracted by it, Izuku and Ochako manage to escape without being traced and successfully find a hiding spot.

As Ochako thanks Izuku for saving her, Izuku is looking out for any exaiminees. Ochako tries attaching a ball onto Izuku. However, Izuku knocks away Ochako's ball. Izuku isn't fooled by "Ochako's" appearance and knows that the imposter is someone from Shiketsu High. Izuku isn't blinded by the imposter's deception either because the Ochako he knows should have been able to float to prevent herself from falling and above all, the Ochako he knows of would not have appeared before the enemy without some sort of plan. "Ochako's" face begins dissolving and is impressed with Izuku for figuring out the deception but is still surprised that he saved the imposter; the imposter wonders if Izuku wanted to take advantage of the situation. Knowing that the imposter wasn't Ochako all along, Izuku told the imposter that he couldn't stand by and watch the imposter fall which is why he saved the imposter.

The imposter dissolves and reveals itself to be the Shiketsu High female whom Izuku has been fighting. Impressed with Izuku's actions and desiring to learn more about him, Kemi wants Izuku to teach her more about himself, much to his dismay.
