Healing Method?

All For One was lurking, only coming out briefly to snatch his people during the previous U.S.J. incident.

Has his strength not yet recovered?

It's very likely, but at the same time, All Might's strength is not what it used to be. Even after passing on his strength to Midoriya, he can only maintain his strong form for less and less time each day.

It is difficult to determine whether All For One or All Might is stronger now.

It's worth noting that even when All Might won, it was a victory that came with great cost and he sustained irreversible damage, which caused a significant drop in his strength. If All For One were to suddenly appear and attack personally, would they be able to withstand it?

Renault didn't know and couldn't be sure. The medicine he used to break through his limits before has already been used up. He'll need to get more or break through to Vector Manipulation Level 5 by himself, otherwise; he'll likely lose.

All Might didn't know what Renault was thinking, but he stood up and walked to the window, looked outside, and said, "In short, One For All is a strength that has been passed down continuously to defeat All For One. Someday in the future, Young Midoriya, you, Young Renault, and other young men and women may have to confront that immense evil. I know it's cruel, but..."

"I'll do my best!" Midoriya interrupted All Might, standing up with a determined expression.

Renault also stood up slowly and said, "It's useless to think too much about it. I've been on the opposite side of that guy since a long time ago, and even without adding the grudge between you, I would have come after him sooner or later."

Turning around, All Might looked at Renault and said, "Young Renault, your younger sister is still with the League of Villains. Her Vector Manipulation Quirk has incredible power, and I don't know why All For One hasn't taken her Quirk yet. But continuing down this path will be an unstable factor. I have cut ties with acquaintances and am intensifying my search for the League of Villains' hideout. I don't expect to defeat All For One for now, but at least we need to disrupt his environment for creating Nomus and bring your younger sister back."

"It'll take quite some time to find the League of Villains' headquarters, won't it?"

"Yeah, they're hiding very well and haven't shown their faces for the past few years, so we can only wait for them to start causing trouble before we can use it to find their trail."

Watching All Might, who seemed a bit unsure, Renault smiled and said, "All Might, don't worry too much. Good always triumphs over evil, and since you were able to win once, we definitely won't lose the next time we face him. Besides, the League of Villains obviously can't launch a full-scale attack in a short period, so we still have time."

"That's right!" Midoriya said, "No matter what, I will fulfill All Might's mission. As the successor of One For All, I will never give up! As long as I have you, I can do anything! I've always felt this way!"

"..."

Watching the two people, All Might opened his mouth and finally said, "Thank you."

After finishing their business, Renault and Midoriya bid farewell to All Might and went back to their classroom to pack up and prepare to go home. As they left the teaching building, Renault suddenly felt something and said to Midoriya, "Midoriya, I forgot something. You go ahead without me."

"Oh... okay, see you tomorrow, Renault-kun," Midoriya replied, still a bit dazed.

"See you tomorrow."

Renault went back to the office where he had been before and knocked on the door before walking in. All Might was standing by the window, gazing out at the view.

"All Might, did you hide something from me earlier?" Renault asked.

"Young Renault, your senses are still as sharp as ever. With you as Young Midoriya's partner, I feel at ease," All Might turned around, and his sunken eyes looked at Renault as he said, "I couldn't quite tell from Young Midoriya's expression just now. I know with his growth rate, talent, and hard work, he will definitely become a hero greater than myself in the future. But at that time, I may..."

All Might did not finish his sentence, but Renault understood what he meant.

"How bad is your condition?" Renault asked.

All Might raised his hand and lifted the hem of his suit and shirt, revealing the terrifying scarring on his abdomen. "As you can see, I can only maintain my muscle form for a limited time each day now. When facing the Nomu in U.S.J., I only needed five punches at my peak. But that time, I threw over 300 punches. It was a shameful display."

Renault took a deep breath and realized that he could no longer fully rely on All Might, the Symbol of Peace. He was no longer young and strong. Although All Might had never revealed his age, Gran Torino, his teacher, was a clue. All Might was at least 50 years old, which meant that he had spent most of his life maintaining peace.

Although All Might often looked hunched over and emaciated, Renault knew that this figure in his heart would always be tall.

"All Might, I will find a way to help you and try to develop my Quirk as soon as possible. Don't push yourself too hard. We students are here, and we will never give up." Renault said earnestly.

All Might was slightly surprised by Renault's serious expression, then smiled.

"Is that so? Thank you very much, Young Renault. But I know my own condition. You don't have to worry too much. And as for developing your Quirk, it's better to take it step by step. If you rush it, it may backfire."

"I understand," Renault said, looking at All Might. "Well, I'm leaving now. See you tomorrow, All Might."

"Okay, see you tomorrow, Young Renault."

The office door closed and All Might slowly sat down on the sofa, letting out a sigh.

"They are all excellent youngsters..." He murmured.

=========

After returning home, Renault ate something simple before heading to the training ground.

"Sento, I have a question for you," Renault said without delay and proceeded to explain All Might's injuries.

"So severe? If it were an ordinary person, they wouldn't have been able to hold on for so long. It's no wonder he is the strongest hero, the Symbol of Peace," Sento said with reverence after hearing Renault's explanation.

But then he added helplessly, "I'm just a physicist, and medicine isn't my area of expertise. And I remember there's a Recovery Girl at your school who's at the top of the healing-type heroes. If even she can't cure him, then there's only one option left."

"Is that the only option? But that System is so unreliable," Renault said, troubled, as he slumped in his chair.

"Perhaps, but it's not like there's no chance at all, right? Maybe one day you'll be given a mission to defeat All For One alone, and as a reward, you'll receive an item to heal All Might." Sento suggested optimistically.

"If that day really comes, that would be the best possible outcome. But for now, we can't count on that. I guess I'll just have to work on developing my own strength." Renault said, slapping his cheeks and standing up with renewed determination.
