Chapter 9 - One For All

After getting a closer at the commotion and looking at the surroundings he finds the new rising hero mount lady and other heroes struggling to take action. They were occupied with thinking about the villain, civilians, and the collateral damage if they acted.

"Please help out friend, Toru!" He turned his head to find a few female students screaming and looked at the slime monster before finding a vague shape wrapping itself around its malleable body.

'I'm really pathetic! I can't do anything…' Allmight cursed himself, unable to act despite being the symbol of peace. He hated that he's at his limit only watching as the villain claimed the life of an innocent child.

He turns to the young man only to see him start to generate flames around his body. Izuku didn't even hesitate to rush first without thinking about himself.

"What was that!?"

He zooms past the other heroes like a streak of red flames, moving with a speed that leaves everyone stunned and unable to react in time. In an instant, he appears before the sludge villain, swiftly grabbing hold of the person trapped inside. As he pulls them free, he discovers they are wearing what appears to be a female uniform.

The girl's quirk seems to make her invisible which is why he is unable to know how to describe her but puts it aside quickly to save her from letting bringing her back where the heroes were.

"Huh!? It's you again!" The sludge lunged forward, aiming to attack Izuku, but he swiftly countered by channeling his newfound ability. Flames erupted from his elbows, generating intense heat that sent waves of blistering energy outward, forcing everyone nearby to instinctively shield themselves from the searing inferno.

[ Fire Dragon's Flame Elbow ]

He launched a devastating strike that sent a massive shockwave rippling through the air, dispersing the sludge villain into fragments that scattered across the ground. The onlookers stood dumbstruck, their faces reflecting a mixture of awe and disbelief at the incredible display of power they had just witnessed.

Until…

"What are you waiting for? Go get the villain!"

Izuku screamed at them, his voice cutting through the stunned silence like a clarion call. His words snapped the heroes out of their daze, reminding them of their duty and prompting them into action. Amidst the commotion, Izuku focused his attention on the young girl who had been victimized by the sludge villain, her form still recovering from the ordeal.

The invisible girl blinked as she slowly regained consciousness, her vision clearing to reveal the face of a handsome young man standing before her. Surprise flickered across her features, momentarily distracted by the unexpected sight. Then, her gaze fell to where Izuku gently held her shoulder, his expression a mix of concern and relief.

"W-What's going on? Who are you?" She blushed but Izuku couldn't see it.

"Hmm? Are you alright? I was about to check your pulse if you're alright. Don't worry the heroes are already handling the situation."

After a few minutes, the heroes subdue the villains as Izuku receives a mouthful of scolding from the heroes. He did not care much about what they said as he was well aware of his action and doesn't regret it.

If he had given power then why won't he use it to have lives? Izuku would have regretted saving that person when he had the power capable of helping them.

[ "This human is surely contradicting themselves. But they aren't wrong in you causing unforeseen consequences." ] Igneel said.

'I know….wait I'm getting a sense of deja vu.' Izuku reminded him of when he saved Jiro.

"You know, as much as I like to say that was cool. You really loved going head first to danger." Mizuna said, sitting over his shoulder then glancing over to a pair of female uniforms guessing it was the one he saved.

"T-Thank you again for saving me and I'm sorry if you receive a sermon from the heroes."

He was about to leave when the person he saved came up to him giving her appreciation. Izuku only smiled much to the invisible girl's maiden heart.

"No problem, it is just how a hero does and also doesn't apologize. I knew at the beginning what would happen if I step in but at least I don't regret anything."

"Still can you tell me your name of my hero?"

"Your Hero…"

He muttered to himself as he slowly took steps toward his dream of becoming the hero that he always wanted. It warms his heart that he had saved another person like Jiro.

"Izuku, Izuku Midoriya." Izuku said with a bright smile reminiscent of Allmight.

"Mine is Toru Hagakure, It's to meet you, Midoriya-san."

"Me too. Well see you around, Hagakure-san."

Izuku left her as she stared at disappearing back and wanted to show more of her gratitude but he was too far away and she was hesitant to take action.

'I hope I can see him again.' Toru felt that she should work even harder than before to achieve her goal as a Hero.

Meanwhile, he was walking back home deeply thinking about the future of his hero career and finally having clarity in life. Izuku had no doubt that his dream to be a hero and all his training weren't for nothing.

"I AM HERE!" Izuku halted his steps and was surprised to see Allmight in his buff form.

"Allmight? Why are you here?" Izuku asked.

"Yeah, did something happen?" Mizuna said.

"Well, young man your action earlier had-blehh"

"What the actual fuck!?" Izuku and Allmight who turned into his skinny self turned to the one who shouted finding ash colored hair youth staring at them in shock while the symbol of peace paled.

"Fuck! I didn't expect someone else!" Allmight shouted in disbelief!

"Kacchan!?" Izuku exclaimed never to expect to stumble upon him.

"You know who this kid is?" Allmight asked.

"Yeah she's my best friend and rival." Izuku said while Katsumi flet hurt by this but dismisses it for now.

"Hold the fuck on! You're Allmight? Why are you all bones!?" Katsumi was shocked to see her Idol and the person she had looked up to ever since she was a child became frail before her eyes.

"Yes, I am Allmight and this is my true self. Don't tell anyone about this, alright?" Allmight feel embarrassed that his secret was exposed.

"Sure thing but I don't think no one would believe me that Allmight, the symbol of peace is getting weaker when I'm fucking seeing before my eyes and still can't fucking believe!!" Katsumi swore baffling Allmight

"....do you really need to swear every time you talk?" He was a bit worried about the young soon to be heroine.

"Don't mind her, that's just how she talks, Allmight."

"Yeah, she has a sailor mouth." Mizuna said.

"What did you say green pussy!?" Katsumi said while Allmight sweat hearing how the youth speak vulgar words without any filter while smiling and agreeing that people would doubt his worse unless he had concrete evidence but even then they would still have their doubts.

"But who could have done this to you Allmight!?" Katsumi asked.

"Someone powerful that we had disclosed information about that fight. Ever since that day my time limit could only last for 3 hours." Allmight gave up since his secret was exposed anyway.

"That short!? That's why you recently have less public appearances?" Allmight nodded, fortunate enough that no one was able to notice how he was becoming less active as time went by. It only a matter of time that people start to know his secret.

"Well the reason I'm here is because you've asked me what makes a hero and earlier you did the same thing of what makes a hero." Allmight said.

"A hero should have?" Katsumi asked.

"Yes it is when they move without thinking and saving someone despite the consequences. You knew you would be scolded by the heroes and yet still acted." Allmight replied.

"I still don't regret saving her." Izuku said.

"Another fucking one?" Katsumi frowned upon hearing this.

"Yup." Mizuna said.

"What?" Izuku tilted his head.

"Never mind." Izuku blankly stared at his rival, ignorant of her words while Katsumi sighed at his denseness.

"Well what I'm to tell you is also important not to tell anyone else. It is about my quirk." Allmight said.

"Your/Allmight's quirk." Izuku and Katsumi exclaimed while Mizuna was also shocked knowing the Allmight quirk was a great mystery.

"Yes, it's called One For all."

One for all, A quirk that allows the person to pass it to someone else while stockpiling the power to the next user it passes on. Allmight being the 8th user is considered the strong user of this quirk with reason yet unknown to him.

However, the truth is his quirk only brings out most of it as long as it is an empty vessel which meant that it needed a quirkless host that needed itself to be passed on fully using its strength or force.

[ 'Interesting, I wonder if Izuku would gain this would it amplify his magic power. He haven't unlock his second origin.'] Igneel thought while listening to their conversation.

"A quirk that could be passed on? How is it possible? I know there are many theories about the Allmight quirk…."

Izuku began to mumble at high speed that it sounded like pitch to Allmight and Katsumi with the latter's veins pop before chopping his head to make him stop.

"The fuck do that for!?" Izuku roared in annoyance.

"Shut up and do your mumbling habit dammit!!" Katsumi roared back.

"Ah sorry, Allmight. Force of habit hahaha." Izuku apologized, rubbing his head and Katsumi snicker.

"It's alright, young man but do you accept my offer? I can see that you're worthy of my quirk having the heroic heart that I've been searching for."

He thought for a moment, stuck in a dilemma of accepting the quirk as he had already been blessed with a quirk even though it was still unknown if it could be considered a quirk.

[ "Accept it, Izuku. You wouldn't lose me even if you gain a quirk. It's possible to even increase your prowess through it." ] Igneel relaid his thoughts.

'Are you sure? I feel like there are others who deserve it more than I do.' Izuku thought.

[ "Yes, do it." ] With that Izuku eyes shimmer in determination having decided to walk the path that is before him and denying would be a missed opportunity.

"I accept and promise to surpass your expectations going beyond plus ultra!" He shouted his heart outs that made Allmight smile as his body slowly started to steam into his buff form.

"Hahaha that is what I like to hear young man!!" Allmight said.

"If you have Allmight quirk then by defeating you and by default also defeat Allmight? Good! I can't fight you anymore when you're now in a weakened state but Deku would be enough!" Katsumi excitedly said.

"Uhmmm Izu-chan?" Everyone's eyes widened and turned their heads finding five young women that made Allmight paled once again that his secret had been revealed to few more people.

"Well we're fucked." Katsumi said.

"You can say that again." Mizuna said.

"How long have you guys been there?" Izuku asked.

"Since the One for all things." Itsuka said.

"Shit…" Allmight cursed.
