TRAINING ARC!!!

Luke

I got lost trying to find my way there.

Very lost. Apparently, I have a laptop, but Salter said she'd be the one handling it after some gacha related incident that occurred "last time".

Leaving that scary thought behind, I found Small Might standing near the entrance. Damn was this place a trash heap. The piles of scrap could easily cast a shadow above the street. It was then that the skeleton called out to me. "Young Luke! I see that you are a bit late. Come on, we have to start your training!"

"Sorry, I got a bit lost on the way here. I don't have a phone, but luckily an old lady pointed out where to go after seeing the confusion on my face" I apologized, scratching the back of my neck in faux embarrassment.

The man, understanding my situation, replied. "If that's the case, then I'll buy you a phone. It won't be much of a bother on my end, plus there might come a time where your presence would be very important."

"So how are we going to train here? I don't see any space that would even allow that." I exclaimed, turning to face the ocean.

The man grinned as he motioned me to follow him. Trailing behind him, going through piles of garbage and some home appliances. He led me over to a fridge near the sea and proclaimed "You are going to clean this entire beach using your power. This should allow you to acclimate enough to it such that using its power will become nothing more than a second thought, and your body will be in a constant state of empowerment."

Toshinori's body shifted into the All Might form as his grin widened into something that any dentist would be proud of.

Is Game trying to punish me? Maybe it's trying to keep my laziness at bay using rather painful and torturous punishments… Yes. And the system seems to have changed, or at least the formatting. The window that would pop up, was now green instead of the old blue. Neat.

Turning my attention back to Toshinori, he was now sitting on the largest pile of scrap, waiting for me to begin. Finding one of the recycling bags he brought with him, I started to shovel the smaller pieces of trash in it, even using 'Black Whip' to speed things up.

Toshi let out a quick gasp, turning back to look at him, he seems to think… I forgot to tell him about the other quirks. Crap. But, perhaps with that look on his face, he might think it's one of the secrets of OFA that he never unlocked, like communicating with the previous users.

Ignoring him, I continued cleaning until I had enough space to do things without tripping over myself.

Activating 'OFA' at 20%, I let out a groan as I felt increasingly tired. My perception of time slowed, as the lightning surrounded me, dancing and tangling with my body. Grabbing a hold of an empty car, I was surprised by how light it was. But, with the strength that I have right now, it shouldn't be that much of a task. I bet that even without the skill helping me, I'd still be strong enough to carry it with little to no issue at all.

Carrying it over to a spot All Might told me about, I saw him getting down from the tower of trash. "Young Luke, what were those black lines?" He asked me seriously.

Putting a hand on my shoulder, getting a firm grip around it. And with a reassuring nod, he urged me to spill the beans. "Ah, those were from the other quirks." I blurted out.

"From what I know, and have been experimenting on, after talking to the previous users, they lent me the abilities that each of them used whilst they were alive." Continuing, I confessed everything about the quirk. No point lying about it anyway, it'd be another inconvenience later down the line.

All Might nodded, though a bit perplexed on how I deduced the powers were from the other quirks. His mind is probably racing to research it at a later date.

…

[A/N: I'll be doing this one in 1st person because it just felt right. Though I will make most, if not all, future POVs outside the mcs in 3rd person. Now back to the story.]

Toshinori Yagi

Quite strange.

While All for One might have a hand in this, it won't make any sense. Someone with an already powerful quirk is given an even greater quirk that also boosts the previous power. Is young Luke that power-hungry?

Are the lengths someone will take to gain power really that great? Is the young man perhaps working for AFO? Or worse, using both of us for his own gain.

Still, with the great menace dead, there would be no one with the ability to give quirks to others, right? Unless HE had a son, then his quirk would only grow even stronger. A cold shiver runs across my spine at the mere thought of a stronger "Symbol of Evil".

Erasing the idea from my mind, I looked at Young Luke, who was progressing faster than I thought with the quirk. His body just seemed to instantly adapt to his new power, like he was meant for it.

The speed that he's progressing his proficiency is almost terrifying. Let's just hope this pace continues, wouldn't want my successor to be beaten by a villain once he officially becomes the "Symbol of Peace".

[Galvanism Rank:E]

Energy shot off from OFA can be used to give the user stamina.

Conversion Rate: SP used/25

The day passed by quicker than I expected, Stacking scrap into a neat pile was easier than expected. Bring the last bit of metal into the garbage truck, I waved the people off as they drove away from me.

Everything became way easier once I learned I could reuse the lightning from OFA. It was like using an inexhaustible energy, just have to work on efficiency.

I felt a sudden stab behind me as All Might shouted. "Luke catch!" Grabbing it with a black tendril, I pulled it into my hand. "We'll meet up again here in 3 days. So until then, have a good rest, Luke."

Toshinori's phone started to ring, picking it up, he put it up to his ear. Several seconds pass before he tells me. "I have to go, a villain is attacking the subway and I need to save people." His tone became serious as he went into a mad dash, his form changing once more.

Letting out a sigh, another day was finally over. And with 3 day of nothing but rest, I couldn't help but cheer to the sky. Wait, don't I have school to attend? Aren't I in the body of a teenager? What even is the day today?

There are so many things that I haven't even fully thought about going into this world, it's honestly quite jarring. The amount of stuff that I might have to do will most likely stunt my growth, time being taken up rather quickly. Then again, what is there to prepare me for a super-powered world?

Absolutely nothing.

Well, maybe Salter and the others that knew me in the separate life. It'll probably be hard to adjust as there are two versions of me out there. But that's for the future and whatever eldritch horror it holds.

Retracing my steps, I made it back to my house without any issue. Once inside, everything proceeded rather plainly. We ate, cleaned up, and went to bed. And in all of those instances, nothing was out of the ordinary. Maybe I'm overthinking it, perhaps it's paranoia, but, even with all of this, sleeping on my bed never seemed so relaxing.
