Get the heck outta here
Explanation:
It's slang for getting out of a place.

It'll be smart for you to get the heck outta here, fast!

Slang for to leave, to depart, etc.

However, if it's for manga, I think using wording like "get the heck outta here" or "get the hell outta here" along those sort of "impolite" lines would work well.

In any case, it's not a verb that you'd use in "polite" company. :-)

  -> Yes, for sure. One wouldn't want a student of Japanese using it in polite company. It would be shocking and embarrassing. :-) Thank you, Minoru!
