The Symbol of Peace!

Toshinori, who received Isao's call, directly asked Nezu for help in searching for Isao. While he knew that Nezu's method might be wrong, as long as he could save Isao, it was all fine, and as expected, soon, Nezu found Isao, yet when he saw the crisis that happened to Isao, he couldn't help but be enraged. 

Isao was just a third of a middle school student. How dare this villain come to Isao?! 

"ALL-FOR-ONE!!!!" 

At that moment, even if Toshinori was at his limit, he brought his everything and used his fist to pummel the shit out of this bastard! 

"ALL MIGHT!!!!" 

Shigaraki also didn't expect Toshinori's appearance. He thought everything would be easy, and he could get everything without much effort, yet why did everything suddenly become like this?! 

Combining all the strengthened and augmentation Quirks inside his body, Shigaraki met Toshinori's fist!

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMM!!!!

As their fists met, the explosion happened on Odaiba, Tokyo's artificial land, causing the island to shake as if it were hit by an earthquake. 

The people who were still on this island were in a panic, and those who were nearby were also dumbfounded. 

At the same time, as this place was close to the TV station, helicopters and reporters were quickly sent to check on what was happening on the island. 

Yet, those people with high standing, whether it was from politicians, police, self-defense, heroes, or many others, were all dumbfounded when they heard All Might fight against All-For-One through Nezu. 

With Nezu's ability, it didn't take much time to hijack all the cameras on the Odaiba, and instantly, he could tell what was happening on this island. 

"WHY DID YOU ALWAYS APPEAR BEFORE ME?!" 

When Shigaraki thought that he would recover and would no longer have a weak body, Toshinori came and stopped him. This also reminded him of their past, when he almost conquered this country, yet everything ended up failing for this bastard! 

"There is no way I can let you bring terror to anyone again! As long as I am here, I will use my life to stop you!" 

'Guh!' 

Yet, Toshinori, whose body was limited, tried to stop the blood from coming out of his lips.

Three hours. 

This was his limit, and he had been using all of that limit previously. 

"All Might!" 

However, when Toshinori saw Isao's bloody appearance lying on the ground helplessly with twisted arms, he was filled with rage that couldn't be controlled. Even if his career might end at this moment, he had to save Isao and stop this scum from harming anyone anymore! 

"ALL-FOR-ONE, HOW DARE YOU!?" 

At the same time, the television broadcasted the fight between the two, and soon, everyone knew about the destruction that had happened in Odaiba. 

"The Odaiba is being destroyed! We're not sure whether it is an attack from the villain or the terrorist! Oh, what is that?! Ah, it's All-Might! Who is he fighting with?! No, All Might, you have to win!" 

Everything was being broadcast live, and soon, everyone knew what was happening. 

"A-All Might?!" 

Midoriya, who was watching the video of All Might as usual, was stunned when he saw the live broadcast of the fight between All Might and All For One. Even though he wasn't chosen as All Might's inheritor, he still tried to get close to All Might since he knew All Might's secret. 

It wasn't like he tried to expose All Might, but All Might was his favorite hero, and he tried to get to know what All Might's problem was in case he could be a help to All For One. 

Unfortunately, there wasn't much he could do. 

While he wasn't sure, he also could tell that it seemed All Might had hidden something from him since, unlike before, All Might had appeared more cheerful. 

Or rather, there was a light in All Might's eyes as if he saw hope. 

This made him uneasy as if he was about to lose something, but everything changed when he saw this fight. 

Unlike others, Midoriya knew about All Might's limitations, and he knew that All Might could only fight for three hours. 

'He has already done his activity for three hours...'

Midoriya bit the nail of his thumb nervously, wondering what would happen to All Might. 

Could All Might defeat this enemy? 

What would happen if All Might's secret was known? 

When he thought all of that, he couldn't stay any longer and ran directly away from the house. 

"Izuku, where are you going?!" 

Inko Midoriya was stunned when her son suddenly ran away, but Midoriya didn't answer his mother and left the house. 

"IZUKU!" 

Yet, for Shigaraki, who fought Toshinori, he quickly noticed the anger on Toshinori was unusual and even strange. Then, the moment he saw Toshinori's gaze toward Isao, he understood instantly. 

"Ah, I see! He is your next inheritor! I see! I see! I understand why you appear here! I understand why you become so angry!" 

"ALL-FOR-ONE!" 

Watching the creepy smile of Shigaraki, Toshinori became uneasy. 

"Hahaha... hate me all you want, I also hate you, after all! But then, I wonder how you feel when you also lose your inheritor! Like when you lose your teacher, you are going to lose your inheritor!" 

Knowing this fact, Shigaraki didn't hesitate and directly raised his palm toward Isao. His arm bulged like a balloon; then he looked at Isao with a smile. "Boy, I like you, but since you are this guy's inheritor candidate, I am sorry, I will kill you! Goodbye~!" 

As Toshinori was anxious, he saw Isao's peaceful smile. 

"Win, All Might." 

"—?!" 

Toshinori didn't care about anything and stood in front of Isao. 

Yet, there was no mercy on Shigaraki, and using the combination of the Quirks inside his body, he blasted an air blast from his palm. 

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMMMM!!!!!

The artificial island shook violently, and much of its infrastructure crumbled due to the force. 

In this attack, Shigaraki used his everything to kill Isao and, if possible, Toshinori too. Frankly, with Toshinori's personality, he knew that Toshinori would protect Isao, and as expected, his bet was correct. 

"Hahaha... look at that pathetic state! Everyone will know that their symbol of peace is just a disabled man! I wonder how their faces are now! Come on! Look at the camera, All Might! Smile!" 

"...you okay, Iinuma-boy?" 

"All Might..." 

While what Isao did was just a pretending, when he saw Toshinori really protected him from Shigaraki's attack, he felt an intense guilt. Watching Toshinori, who became a skeleton figure as his body was almost half-dead, he made up his mind to recover this guy. 

"Smile. Don't cry." 

Toshinori smiled when he saw Isao cry, then faced Shigaraki again. "It's my fault. If I am not involved with your life, then you won't have a face situation. I am sorry." 

Like Isao, Toshinori felt intense guilt when he saw Isao's heavy injury. For a middle school student to receive such wounds and even almost be killed by All For One, he couldn't forgive himself! 

Even when Isao recovered, what kind of trauma would be felt by this boy? 

Along with guilt, Toshinori also felt an intense anger toward Shigaraki, who enjoyed this situation! 

"I WILL DEFINITELY NOT FORGIVE YOU!" 

"Hahaha... I don't ask for your forgiveness either! Or rather, I will end both of you here!" 

Yet, as their fight became even more intense, everyone in this country was shocked when they saw the change that happened to Toshinori. 

"No way... is that All Might? 

"What is happening...?" 

"Is All-Might going to Lose?" 

When they saw Toshinori's tragic figure, all the confidence and belief they had that their lives would be okay from now on changed when they saw Toshinori's state. At this moment, they were all in despair, wondering who would protect the peace of this country. 

Yet—

"Don't lose, All Might!" 

"Stand up!" 

"Defeat that villain!" 

Their hero hadn't given up in a fight, and naturally, how could they give up? 

While they knew their cheers might mean nothing, they screamed with all of their might to support their hero. 

"Please, I beg you! Please save Isao-kun! Please! Please!" 

On the bridge that connected the mainland with Odaiba, Mitsuki, who asked for help from the heroes and police, kept begging since she knew that Isao was in the vicinity of the fight between Toshinori and Shigaraki. 

When she thought that something might happen to Isao, she couldn't stay still and kept begging them, and even wished to be in there to save him, but naturally, they couldn't let her go, considering how dangerous that place was. 

"We can't, Maam!"

"Please believe in All Might!" 

"He will win!"

Yet, when everyone saw the large screen that showed the fight between Toshinori and Shigaraki, their hearts were filled with anxiety, especially when Shigaraki gained the upper hand. 

Toshinori was at his limit, and he needed to protect Isao, and Shigaraki kept attacking Isao. 

"All Might, go! Leave me! I will be okay here! You don't have to worry! Just win!" 

"NO! I WON'T LEAVE YOU!" 

Toshinori answered strongly as he kept blocking the attacks that came from Shigaraki. 

"How moving! But let's see how long you can protect him. Or rather, can you protect him from this attack?" 

Then, Shigaraki used his strongest combo of Quirks. 

"Springlike Limbs, Multiplier, Hypertrophy, Rivet, Spear like Bones, Air Walk, Four Kinetic Booster Quirks, Three Strength Enhancer Quirks." 

The size of his right arm increased even further, and it became grotesque with a combination of many Quirks as if it wasn't the arm of a human anymore. It was the arm of a monster, something that could only come out of a horror movie. 

"Hahaha, die!" 

Like a real villain, Shigaraki pummeled his grotesque arm into Isao, and as expected, Toshinori stood there, accepting this punch. 

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!!!!!

The impact of this punch blew everything away. 

Isao and Toshinori were also blown away together, but unlike Isao, Toshinori's situation was even more serious as his entire body was bloody, and many parts of his bones were broken. 

"Cough! Cough! Cough!" 

"Hahahaha...." 

Yet, watching their critical situation, Shigaraki was so happy~! 

He felt like he had a climax, feeling so high as if he could do anything! 

He was so glad that he had come to this place since he had met the two~!

"Ah... I feel so happy~!" 

However, those who watched the broadcast were in despair. Their hero, their symbol of peace, their hope, fell there with someone. 

Not only Toshinori but Isao was also about to die, killed by this villain!

"All Might..." 

Everyone kept screaming until they lost their voices, yet Toshinori couldn't hear them since he was in despair. The fire on his body was so dim that a slight blow of wind would extinguish it, but more importantly, he would involve this innocent boy due to his impatience. 

'If I am more careful...' 

If Toshinori didn't get close to Isao... if they didn't meet... if... if... if...

If he died, it was all fine, but if Isao died, he really couldn't bear this guilt. 

As Toshinori cried, he heard a voice. 

"All Might gives me." 

Toshinori looked at the source of the voice and saw Isao's eyes, which were still firm. Isao's words might be limited, yet watching his determination, he understood everything. 

"Let me become your inheritor." 

That was his acceptance, and that was also words that lit the fire on Toshinori's body again. 

Even if Toshinori's arms were broken, he forced himself to move, plucked his hair with his ruined fingers, and gave it to Isao. 

"Eat this." 

"....." 

While Isao was speechless since he didn't want to eat the hair of a middle-aged man, he knew that this was a necessary process, so while he sighed helplessly, he opened his lips and ate Toshinori's hair. 

In that moment, everything changed. 

"NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!" 

Shigaraki felt something terrible was about to awaken, and when he saw what was happening between Toshinori and Isao, he felt a sense of dread and quickly sent another attack to the two of them, killing them completely and erasing them from this world. 

Yet—

It was too late.

When Toshinori thought that they were about to die, he saw a tall figure standing before him. 

"Oh...." 

Toshinori couldn't help but cry, watching his inheritor stand up. 

"You don't have to worry. It's my time now." 

Isao felt brimming with energy. His drought-like body was moisturized, and he was filled with power. 

His completely wrecked body regenerated at an insane speed, and he stood once again, blocking Shigaraki's ultimate attack like it was nothing. 

"YOU...! YOU...! YOU....!" 

Watching Isao catch his fist with ease, Shigaraki fell with terror and completely fell into a maniacal state, ready to give his everything, killing Isao once again to erase his fear, yet—

Isao clenched his fists, and all the power of One For All flowed within his body before they focused on his fist. 

Then, at the same time—

The aura on his body blew everything away, and like a comet during the night, his body shone brightly, bringing hope to everyone. 

"Impossible!" 

How long had it been? 

How could this motherfucker have mastered the One-For-All already?! 

Shigaraki thought that he had a chance as Isao had just gotten the One-For-All, yet why the hell could Isao master the power of One-For-All already?! 

Yet, his question went unanswered as he was defeated. 

"Purgatory Smash!" 

It was like an explosion of a nuclear bomb. 

The moment this fist fell, everything was all white and quiet before the booming sound from the sonic boom brought everything into the peace. 

Everyone was quiet, watching the figure who stood who defeated the symbol of terror. 

His back was strong and wide, and as they saw his back, he stood heroically as if he would protect everyone from anything. 

'Oh...' 

At that moment, even if no one said anything, they understood that the baton had been passed to the next generation. 

They no longer feared their peace would be threatened by the villains.

Why?

Because the next symbol of peace is here!

Here is an early chapter. 

The next one is later, okay?
