"You have recuperated, All Might…"

A deep raspy voice echoed out at the wild destruction-filled area nearby.

In this patch of land that seemingly had suffered from a nuclear power blast, two humans can be seen.

One of them was a burly muscled person with a grim expression on his usually always smiling face.

This was All Might.

And for this person opposite him to make him all solemn and frown, it can be non-other than One for All.

In this instance, somehow, All for One appeared to be healed as he stood there completely free from any injuries.

He directed his question to All might, and the person himself was rather in a sorry state.

All Might held deep anger in his eyes.

His state was enough to make him understand that All for one wasn't like he used to know him.

'He must have acquired some new quirks… much more dangerous than before…'

Despite the question, he didn't answer.

It was true that he has healed thanks to the group, but he wasn't about to pill such a secret and to non-other than All for one at that…

"Hahaha,"

"All Might, I know what's going on in your head…"

He cackled as he walked slowly towards All Might's form that was filled with injuries.

"What quirks did I steal? Or rather what super abilities as they are called now,"

His face was asked, but All Might could swear he could see the grin stretching on All For One's face…

"Toshinori, let me tell you,"

His eye suddenly gained a crazed intensity.

"It's true!"

"I stole the ability with the most potential in the world, and now, it only needs one for all to complement…"

His voice was filled with absolute madness, and All might felt a chill in his body.

He had already requested aid from the group, and as such, now he was just stalling for time.

Despite what All For One was saying, this ability didn't seem to be as impressive as he was alluding to.

After all, he had been fighting him, and All for one barely managed to win over him.

And at that moment, as if he noticed the slight disdain all might had for him, All for One burst out laughing.

"Ignorant, I never took you for someone ignorant,"

He shook his head.

"I know you are stalling for time, but let me tell you, it doesn't matter who comes,"

*Laughing*

"I'll indulge you and explain to your muscle-headed self…"

He spread his arms wide and then struck a pose.

"Behold the absolute ability that will take me to the top,"

"Absolute Development!"

"Hahahaha"

All Might felt a chill from him, but he didn't know what this ability did.

"You will be stopped, All For One, and you will be held accountable for all that you did,"

All Might was certain of the such, after all not just any certain was coming, but rather Ren. The most talented and hard-working person he knew.

And the fastest person to reach the SSS rank.

"Don't make me laugh All Might,"

"So what if an SSS rank comes? Weren't you able to fight back just minutes ago? But then a suddenly surpassed you?"

He grinned as he taunted all Might, and when Toshinori thought about it, it seemed to be true.

His eyes suddenly widened as he felt this was the ability all for one was talking about.

Earlier, he was still able to fight equally especially since had regained his power and even advanced to the SS rank.

But as the fight went on, All for one got stronger and stronger.

"That's right, Hahahaha,"

"Absolute Development! Nothing can stop my development, and no matter how strong a person is, I will always reach their level shortly after,"

His grin stretched even wider as if that was possible, not that anyone could see it under the mask.

"My potential has become unlimited, All Might, and you have no longer worthy of being my opponent…"

He suddenly exuded killing intent as he glared at all might.

All might took a step back forcefully and tried to prepare himself for any fight that was about to start.

"The only thing you are fit to do right now, All Might, is to hand over your quirk!"

"So exciting, just imagining one for all in addition to my limitless potential…"

He trembled from the emotions and euphoria he felt at that moment and All might was creeped out.

'He didn't have this before…'

His eyes sharpened as he watched all for one with vigilance.

And as if he once again read his mind.

"The person I took this ability from was already on the villain path, or rather, he disliked both heroes and villains,"

"Haha, he would have wasted this ability if he was allowed to use it, such a thing can only work when I'm the one using it,"

All for one was convinced of such a thing and wasn't trying to make others understand, he was just that much confident bout himself.

'And when I add one for all, its stockpiled power would push me to the top on its own!'

His eyes glowed an evil red light.

'At that time, forget the SSS ranks! I'll be even better than those Ex-ranks! A literal god!'

His dreams were short of coming through.

He just had to take the superpower from all might.

At that moment, All Might suddenly have a bad premonition and hurriedly kicked the ground, jumping way backward.

Suddenly, as he did so, one for all, appeared next to him and swung his hand that was enlarged like a dragon claw.

But before he could injure all might, a hand suddenly appeared between them and then turned slightly before throwing all for one far away as he skidded on the ground making a long trench.

"Ren!"

All Might was suddenly ecstatic.

After all, now Ren had appeared to deal with the threat of all for one.

Ren stood there and smiled at all Might.

It seemed like he made a good choice to come here this day.
