5 Chapter 5

Bakugo turned towards Izuku, "So nerd, do you feel any different now?"

"Hmm, wow yeah, now that you mention it..." Izuku jabbed the air in front of him multiple times. "I do feel more pumped up than usual!"

"Good, young Midoriya! That must mean that One For All has fully adjusted itself in your body! Now you can start- PFFT!" at that moment, All Might transformed back into his skinny form, spewing out blood comically once more.

"Maybe you shouldn't stay in your muscle form when it isn't necessary." Bakugo suggested, "That doesn't look healthy."

Toshinori coughed for a few moments before answering, "Maybe... But as I was saying, we should have young Midoriya test out One For All now that his body adjusted it."

"Here?" Izuku asked, looking at their surroundings, wondering if there are people around them, "Isn't this a bit...too public?"

"No worries!" All Might gave a thumbs up, "I have a friend who already got that covered! No one will be coming here so we have the entire beach for ourselves!"

"No wonder I didn't see any other people here," said Bakugo as he looked around.

All Might turned back to Izuku and formed his signature smile, "Now Midoirya, let's see you try to activate One For All for the first time."

The green haired teen nodded his head and went to a boxing stance and stared at the empty space in front of him.

He then turned back to Toshinori with a blank look and a question mark over his head, "How do I do that again?"

'Ah, right...' Toshinori rubbed the back of his head. He then put a fist in the air, "Just focus, pull your arm back, clench your buttocks, and yell smash!"

"That doesn't really sound like a good explanation..." Izuku sweatdropped.

"Just trust me!" Toshinori said, giving him a thumbs up.

Izuku deadpanned before turning towards his explosive friend, "How do you activate your Quirk Katsuki?"

"He doesn't trust me at all!" Toshinori exclaimed as he comically coughed up mouthful of blood.

Bakugo opened his palm as sparks started to appear, "I'm using a mental trigger to activate it at my will, in my case it's "like pulling the pin of a grenade", and then boom!"

Boom! His palm released a small explosion, "Of course I also imagined how big the grenade is to control the power of my explosion."

"I see," Izuku nodded and rubbed his chin, 'Now how does All Might uses One for All. He's shit when it comes to explanation so I need to figure it out on my on.'

He gave an accusing glare at his mentor who couldn't do his job right. Said Mentor flinched at the glare and scratched his cheek in embarrassment.

But the number hero coughed on his fist and turned to his buffed form and gave him a thumbs up, "No need to think hard Young Midoriya! Just trust your instincts! That's what I did!"

Izuku frowned, "Hey All Might, how are you doing that?"

"Doing what?"

"That buffed form or something! Is it your original Quirk?"

All Might shook his head, his trademark smile not leaving his face, "Nope! I was, in fact, Quirkless until my master passed me this Quirk. As for this form, well I'm using One for Fall to buff me up!"

Bakugo raised an eyebrow hearing his idol was actually Quirkless like his friend.

However, Izuku seems to not hear him as his eyes widened, "That's it! I think I finally got it!"

Bakugo turned back to Izuku and smirked when he saw his expression. 'Leave it to the nerd to figure out how the quirk of the number one hero works within a few minutes.'

"That's great!" All Might exclaimed, "Now! Fire off a smash like your life depends on it!"

"No way."

"Pffft—cough!" All Might coughed up blood and returned to his skinny form hearing the words of his successor. He wanted to say something, but when he saw Izuku with his eyes close and concentrating, he shut his mouth.

'Alright, so All Might is using One for All on his entire body, not just parts of it like I initially thought. Good, now to activate it, I need a mental trigger...'

The very first thing that came to his mind is that One for All is a water dispenser, and that he was using it to pour water into a balloon.

Red lines started appearing on Izuku's body. Starting from his legs up. All Might and Bakugo watched in amazement at the spectacle.

All Might wondered why when he uses One for All there's no special effects, his strength, speed, and power just increased drastically.

'Nnrg...' Izuku's face twisted in pain, 'Too...much...power...I...need...to...lower..it!'

He imagined the balloon that was about to burst and shut the dispenser off, before pouring the excess water back into the dispenser.

Leaving the balloon with only enough water for it to bloat, but not enough for it burst.

Green electricity crackled around his body as he seem to glow. He opened his eyes, and for the very first time, he felt like he could flatten a mountain with a smash.

"Oh my, OH MY GOODNESS!" All Might returned to his buffed form in excitement, "Young Midoriya, you have certainly surpassed my expectations!"

Bakugo grinned as he stared at his friend, he was already itching for a fight! Before, most of the time they spar is without the use of Quirk and he couldn't even land a hit on Izuku before losing.

Now, with both of them having a Quirk, Bakugo can now freely used his in their spars! And the nerd can no longer use the excuse that I only won because he was Quirkless!

All Might opened his palm, "Now, young Midoriya, why don't you test how strong you are. Here, punch my palm."

Izuku nodded as he stiffly moved his arms. It was a bit hard for him to move in this state because he felt like if he make one wrong move then something will break!

And it's definitely not All Might!

He cocked his right arm before throwing the strongest punch he had ever made in his life.

'SMASH!'

Boom!

A rather strong gust of wind was generated the moment Izuku's fist made contact with All Might's punch.

Bakugo shielded his face as he took a step back.

All Might though, he didn't even flinch and just have this thoughtful look on his face. "Hmm, that punch should be around ten percent. Much higher than I expected."

'Only ten percent?' Izuku was rather disappointed, 'I thought it'd be higher.'

All Might patted his shoulder, "No need to feel disappointed Young Midoriya. You already did better than expected! Now, you only need to strengthen your body."

"How?" Asked Izuku.

"Let me in on it too," said Bakugo, "As I am now, I am physically weaker than the nerd, not to mention less skilled. I should probably attend some dojo."

"And you said you don't need to learn martial arts." Izuku rolled his eyes.

"Yeah, well now you have your Quirk! I won't have the advantage anymore!"

"Why don't you ask All Might to teach you?" Said Izuku, "Since he's a close combat fighter, he should at least know a thing or two."

All Might nodded, "I learned boxing and grappling. I was pretty good at it too, but after I mastered One for All and pretty much one shot most of my enemies, I probably have gotten rusty. So even though I can teach you the basics, it's still advisable for you to learn from a master."

Bakugo nodded. He can't breach the gap with Izuku when it comes to skills with just months of training, but he still need to try.

"Join some local martial arts tournaments too." Said Izuku, "Like I did. You can earn money and gain experience. And if you're confident then join the Golden Fist Tournament next year. It's in May, so we don't have classes."

"I'll think about it." Said Bakugo, he was confident, but not cocky nor arrogant. He knows his limits. Even Izuku who trained for years lost two times in Golden Fist Tournament before finally winning this year.

"Excuse me but, what's this "Golden Fist Tournament" you are talking about?" Asked All Might.

Bakugo and Izuku stared at the number one hero in shock. Izuku grabbed All Might's shirt, "You don't know!? Do you live under a rock or something!?"

"W-What?" All Might looked at his successor in confusion, wondering why did he react like this.

Bakugo answered for him, "The Golden Fist Tournament is a National Martial Arts Tournament that is held in Tokyo, once a year. Martial Artist from all over the country flock there to sign up for the tournament. It was a kind of a big deal since dozens of large companies invested on it. The Prize Money for the champion is ten million yen."

Izuku let go of All Might and continued, "There are two leagues, first is the Junior League for people around 12-17 years old. And the Senior League for people 18 years old and above."

"The nerd here," Bakugo pointed at Izuku, "Joined that tournament three times in a row, he lost the first two times, but he won it this year. You could say that he's one of the best damn fighter in our generation."

"Wow," All Might stared at his successor who was grinning at him, "I didn't know about that! It might be late, but congratulations Young Midoriya!"

"Thanks All Might." Said Izuku.

All Might nodded, "Well now. Why don't I tell you what you're going to do for training?"

The two teens leaned closer.
