Since the dawn of human civilization, a few questions have plagued our world. One of them is why we should live, another is what our purpose might be, and a third one is why humanity became the dominant species on a planet where there are animals stronger than humans, animals that can kill us with one touch, and animals with larger populations than humans. Yet, at the end of the day, the human race stands as the world leader.
"Many scientists may offer different perspectives, but in my opinion, the indomitable human will is the key to our survival. This determination has enabled humanity to triumph over animals five times our size, with Ren serving as a perfect example.".
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ren was considered the perfect experiment for Dr. Garaki. He has the genes of the most powerful villain in Japan and an upgraded version of the quirk All For One. Ren's quirk is an advanced version of his father's. He can steal, give, combine, and destroy quirks. However, he must have a stronger will than the person he is facing to steal their quirk. Additionally, if he wants to combine quirks, he needs to ensure their compatibility. For example, his favorite quirk is Berserker, which he created by combining the quirks Rage, Ambrosia, and Power. This combination resulted in Berserker, a quirk that, if listed by the Hero Public Safety Commission, would be the strongest strength-based quirk in Japan, second only to One For All, known to the world as Super-Power.
Now you might be wondering why I'm describing the quirk Berserker. The reason is that the power of this quirk comes from rage. The angrier you are, the stronger you get physically, and the regeneration becomes much better. Now, with Ren on the floor, his anger was at its maximum, and Berserker got activated.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A scream that could hunt even a war veteran was heard, a scream that shattered every single glass in the whole base, that's how mad Ren was. All For One froze and he just looked at his son with his eyes wide open as for the first time in his life, something told him to run, to run away as fast as possible! But in an instant Ren was in front of him, all healed up and ready for the second round.AFO tried to use Air Cannon to send Ren away but Ren headbutted him in the head.AFO wasn't faced by it as he activated all his strength enchanting quirks, and for the first time after 30 years, he got serious.
Ren was just screaming as he seemed like a wild beast that had lost his sanity but that didn't matter as he may look like that, in reality, he knew who his target was and didn't fight aimlessly.
OFO used Body Bulk to get bigger and even stronger than he already was and clashed with Ren as both of them let a barrage of punches to each other. Blood could be seen everywhere around them as a single punch of each one could destroy whole buildings with ease. Ren wasn't faced by the sudden change in his father's height as he continued to punch him in places that could deal serious damage, like his face, liver, and stomach. On the other hand, AFO was just trying to find an opening to unleash a powerful attack but it wasn't going very well. Ren activated Heat Vision in point plank range and burned AFO's right shoulder but he couldn't leave any time for his father to react he also activated Saber and tried to cut his father's right hand but in the last minute AFO dodged and activated a full power Air Cannon that sent Ren at the top of the ceiling but AFO wasn't done as he unleashed almost a full power of the quirk Impure Beam and the whole base became bright. Everything was destroyed in the base and Ren was now in the air as he was sent there by the sheer power of Impure Beam. He was burned all over but the regeneration of Berserker kicked in and he was all healed up.
This change in the battle made him gain control of his body once again as he was now falling to the ground very fast, but he activated Air Walk. This let him just stand in the air looking at the big hole that now existed in the ground."Where the fuck am I?" he looks around and he could see a giant city, then he understood where he was"His fucking base was just outside Tokyo, but there is no way that was his main base, as he said, he wouldn't risk bringing me to his main one." just then an array of dark balls made out of energy went towards him but he activated Air Wall and made multiple lairs of compressed air to protect himself. But it didn't matter as AFO jumped at where Ren was with his giant hand punching broke Air Wall sent Ren to the ground so hard that a giant crater was created and all the trees in the vicinity were destroyed.
Ren was breathing heavily, exhausted from overusing so many quirks. The fatigue was bigger than he thought. He had many questions that he needed answers from his father, but now the main thing to do is survive. "I can't win against him right now, not with the small arsenal of quirks I have. I need to run, I have to get stronger!" he thought. He knew he didn't have many strong quirks that could injure his father. He had very powerful fire and cold resistance quirks, which helped him survive the beam, but he wasn't ready to fight such a strong opponent yet.
As Ren was thinking AFO was descending slowly towards him, the sun blocked the view of Ren's eyesight but when he saw AFO he thought one thing, one thing that was always in his mind every time AFO spoke about his ambitions 'false god', that's how Ren describes AFO."Surrender Ren and I promise you that I will not kill you, I love you, son!"Ren was dumbfounded by the sheer hypocrisy his father was saying"Man you are such a bad liar" Just then Ren unleashed a full-power Air Cannon to the ground he was sent up to the sky faster than the speed of sound. Ren now could see AFO as a small ant and he was ready to unleash the most powerful attack he could muster.
'He is faster than me and he has more stamina, even if I run to the city, he will catch me and I will not be safe, so it's better to damage him and also call the heroes, even if I go to jail I might have the chance to talk to All Might. So here goes nothing!' he looked at his father and his eyes became red as he unleashed a wave of energy thanks to his Heat Vision. The area where his Heat vision was consumed the whole forest as he needed to be sure that his father was hurt and big enough to alert All MIght.
Ultimate Move: Death Ray
Everything turned red as a giant wave of energy headed toward the ground, turning the entire forest to ash. The ground resembled coal, and Ren gazed in the direction where his father was last seen, only to find nothing. "Shit, he got away," Ren said with disappointment evident in his voice. In a split second, he relaxed, and all the fatigue from the battle hit him, but he was too exhausted to even scream.
"Dammit, it all turned out to be for nothing in the end. It seems my entire group was just a ploy to control me. I have all this power, yet in the end, it was all for nothing. How can I change the fate of this nation if I can't even discern the intentions of the people I thought were my comrades? My childish dreams seem useless," thought Rem as he fell from the sky, reflecting on how everything had turned out so badly. He didn't have the stamina to activate any of his abilities to save himself from the fall, and he could only hope that someone would catch him.
And his wish came true as he heard someone flying at speeds faster than a fighter jet coming towards him. Ren looked at where this person was coming from and saw a blond-haired man coming to save him. He knew very well who he was: All Might, the greatest hero of Japan and the man his father hated the most. Ren just smiled and closed his eyes, knowing that now he was safe. All Might caught him and said with a big smile on his face, "Don't worry, young man, because I AM HERE!"
'Of course,' Ren thought, a small smile on his face, as everything in his body started to shut down.
All Might didn't pay attention to the sudden change in Ren's body because he was shocked by the sheer destruction in front of him. He then looked at Ren and asked, "Did you do this, young man?" without anger in his voice, knowing that blaming others without proof isn't the way of a hero. He waited for a response, but when none came, he put his head on the boy's chest and realized that Ren's heartbeat was very weak. "The boy is dying. I have to get him to Chiyo!" All Might then started to fly as fast as he could towards U.A. However, he realized that Recovery Girl's quirk required the patient to have the energy to recover, and this young man was dying. "I have to get him to St. Luke. They are the best in Japan."
All Might then started to fly towards St. Luke's Hospital. As he was going, he saw dozens of heroes, along with police and firefighters, heading toward the place where he found Ren. Once the great National Forest Yamato stood, but now it was just ashes. "What kind of ability could destroy the whole forest so fast? Not even Endeavor could burn it that quickly!" thought All Might as he reached the entrance to the hospital and rushed in to take him to the doctors.
Random civilians were waving and screaming at All Might, showing that they were big fans. It's not every day that you see the number one Hero. However, All Might didn't pay any attention to them as he was very worried about the boy whose heartbeat had gotten even weaker. All Might rushed to the receptionist and said, "I need the best doctors now, this boy is dying!" After a few seconds, doctors came and took Ren to treat him. All Might wasn't going to leave, as he couldn't leave this young man alone. He knew that the boy was a part of the incident that happened in the forest and something about the boy's appearance made him anxious. So, if he had to, he would call his sidekick, Sir Nighteye, to take over the job. He went towards the reception and asked if he could make a call, and of course, they let him.
"Nighteye, I need you to take the job at Yamato. I have something to do."
Nighteye questioned, "What could be more important than the destruction of the National Forest?" as he lost his cool.
"I can't tell you right now when you can come to St. Luke, it's important," said All Might as his instincts told him to stay close to the child. Something bothered him about the appearance of a child in an area that was destroyed and falling from the sky.
Nighteye sighed, realizing he couldn't change the mind of his idol. "I trust you, All Might. I will come immediately when I am done with the paperwork."
All Might thanked Nighteye and headed outside to take some air. His face was different than usual; he wasn't smiling as he kept thinking about the boy and, most specifically, his gray hair. Since the death of his master at the hands of All For One, every time he saw gray hair, his mind reminded him. He had developed some kind of trauma that haunted him all those years, but he never told anyone, not even Gran Torino, because he is the pillar of hope. He must always smile and not burden anyone with his problems.
He placed his hand on his face to cover it. "Come on, Toshinori, it's just your mind and everything is alright," he said to himself. He then put on a forced smile and started to walk towards the receptionist to provide contact details for when the doctors were done with Ren.
