It has been six years since Izuku faced the harsh truth of him being a quirkless. His relationship with Bakugo had deteriorated. Earlier Bakugo only ignored him but now, everybody praising him for his quirk gave him a superiority complex. Now he didn't ignore him, but Izuku basically became the target of his group, they would bully and use the green-haired boy for experimenting with their quirks. In spite of Bakugo's treatment Izuku never despised him, in fact, he looked onto him and always wanted to have a powerful quirk like him.

Inko now became worried as Izuku had become more silent after the shocking revelation, she knew he was getting bullied by his friends at school as well as when he went out with them. She often found Izuku having burn marks but whenever she asked him, Izuku would just say that he got hurt while playing with Kachhan and it is nothing but Inko knew that Bakugo was bullying him. She had been suspicious of Bakugo but never confronted him as she was afraid that if she was wrong Izuku may lose his childhood friend.

Bakugo's treatment became harsher and harsher, he would literally beat Izuku till he was covered in tears or was unconscious. One day Izuku protested against him when he bullying a child with a quirk that let him shed his skin, perfect for Bakugo as the boy would just shed his skin after Bakugo beating him like nothing ever happened.

"Kacchan, stop it you. . . . ar. . . are hurting him.", Izuku gathering all his courage protested Bakugo.

"Hurting, I don't see him getting hurt. Hey, little brat are you getting hurt?", Bakugo looks at the boy creating small explosions in his hands.

"You are bullying him, he is hurt. Please Kacchan stop, you should not use your quirk without permission or to hurt somebody", Izuku shielded the boy from Bakugo's explosion.

"Look who is here... Mr. Hero. Do you know about his wonderful quirk, oh I forgot that he doesn't have any? Dekkuu, look I don't want to beat you now, so leave or else don't blame me for will what happens next", Bakugo tries to frighten Izuku. Izuku shivers but he stops himself from shaking on seeing the boy crying in pain.

"Kacchan, I am not going to step aside until you leave him", Izuku was scarred but still defended the boy, who had already started to shed some of his skin.

"Don't complaint what happens next, you know, it's your fault, Deku.", Bakugo fires an explosion at Izuku. The explosion hits the green boy's arms, he screamed but didn't budge.

Bakugo fires another explosion but the green-haired boy haven't given up. He continues to fire explosions one after another but Izuku is still defending the boy, it pisses of Bakugo looking how Izuku was standing up to him, his explosions kept getting stronger. For roughly eight mins Bakugo has kept firing explosions continuously at Izuku, Izuku fell down sometimes but he stands up again, resisting to give up.

Izuku now notices that Bakugo's explosion was getting weaker and weaker. He knew Bakugo couldn't continue firing for a long time, he may be a quirkless, but he was a genius when it came to quirks.

While trying to awaken his quirk in the past years, he researched most of the quirks he could find. He studied them, found their weakness, and tried to find different ways to exploit them. He now had more than 25 volumes of his Quirk Analysis notebook in his possession, each having different quirks, ranging from emitter to enhancer and even mutation.

He even did his quirk analysis on Pro-Heroes, from the No.1 Hero to even underground heroes, which rarely came in public. Most of the time a quirk took not more than half a notebook to be analyzed except two; All Might and Eraser Head, while All Might's quirk took 2 volumes as most of it was still a mystery, Eraser Head's quirk took 3 volumes and was still incomplete. Eraser Head had a quirk that allowed him to erase the effects of any quirk apart from mutations.

Izuku was known as the "Quirkless Genius", he was amongst the top members of an online quirk research team, which researched and studied quirks, they would all share their findings and frequently did meetings to show their progress. His teammates were shocked when they found that an eight-year-old could give such precise analysis on quirks and could even exploit them. He also was one of the admins of the "The Recorders Of Quirks", an underground organization that discovered new quirks and broke information about specific quirks. It wasn't very popular among the heroes but vigilantes and underground heroes often used it whenever they had to fight an unknown quirk. They had a division that built support items that allow even a quirkless to beat any hero, even All Might with just some proper training and experience. They had enough power to take down a small army with different quirks with ease but they never were interested basically they had monopolized and controlled the whole superhero profession.

Izuku despite being only ten years old had accumulated enough wealth to bypass the No.2 Hero Endeavor, who was known for his craze for power and fame and was also the richest hero not only in Japan but also in the world. He was kept in high regard by his fellow members, they never cared for his age. He was once even invited by one of the admins to introduce his family to Izuku, to which he respectfully declined. He had no interests other than quirks not even money.

It was past ten mins, Izuku knew that Bakugo won't be able to use any more of his quirk, or else he will dehydrate himself. Bakugo was panting, his throat was dry and was barely able to speak.

"Tch, you persistent as always Deku. Today I am leaving you but don't interfere in my business ever again," Bakugo retreats and heads back to his home and the boy had almost shed his skin and is already unconscious. Izuku holds him, his previous skin lied next to his unconscious body, after a few seconds the skin turns into ash. The boy wakes up, Izuku asks him if he is alright, he already knew he was fine as his quirk allowed him to heal any injury by shedding. The boy said the same, "On shedding my skin, my all pain was gone. I am perfectly fine and thank you for saving me from that boy. You are hurt, aren't you?" the boy looks at his body, covered with marks.

"Oh, this, its nothing that I can't handle. So do you want me to leave you home?", Izuku tries to hold himself and calms down the situation. The boy replies that he could go to his house without Izuku's help and starts walking, he suddenly turns back and shouts, "Uhh, I forgot to introduce myself. I am Kazeru Abazi. What is your name?"

Izuku introduces himself, "My name is Izuku Midoriya, nice to meet you."

The boy bade him and says, "I hope we meet again Izuku-senpai."

Izuku bade the boy goodbye, he could no longer hold himself. His body was tired, he somehow managed to leave the park. His legs were stumbling, he was barely able to walk and held the walls for support. He was already on the verge of passing out, but he tried to keep himself conscious but his body gives up, he was already at his limit. He had already his body to its limit and now he had no energy left. He faints in a dark street, in the middle of nowhere. He feels someone's presence around him but can't turn back, he falls down. Izuku opens him, he sees a tall man with scarfs having a familiar face.

"Pro... Hero... Eras... Quirk... Erase", Izuku faints again after knowing he is safe.

The man picks him and carries to the nearby hospital, he founds his identity card and calls Inko Midoriya, who was now in her office. She hurriedly goes to her boss's cabin and asks her boss that she has to leave as something urgent has come up. She takes her car and drives as fast as she can to the hospital.

She arrived at the hospital in about 10 mins, she ran to the receptionist asking for her son. The receptionist informs her that her son is in room no.47 on the first floor. Inko goes to room no.47 as fast as she can. She sees a familiar face but she couldn't remember the other.

"Present Mic... You here, thank you for saving my boy.", she looks the other man holding Izuku's hand. She took the green-haired boy's hand.

"Huh, You got it wrong. I didn't save your son, he did.", Present Mic points at the tall man,

"I don't know who you are but thank you for saving my boy. I can't thank you enough for saving him, I will always be in your debt", Inko expressing her gratitude to his son's savior.

The man looks in her eyes, "Ma'am, it was my job as well as duty to help your son,"

Izuku opens his eyes, he finds himself in a dark void with a bright light above his head. He hears a voice, a calm and sweet voice.

Izuku Midoriya, do you remember what happened to you?

Yeah, I know. I was protecting the boy from Kachhan.

You saved him but at the cost of your body, you could have died.

Am I dead? Are you here to take my soul?

No, I am not here to take your soul and you are not dead but you are in hospital and your mother is worried. By the way, what is your wish? What is it that you truly want?

Izuku looks around but couldn't find the source of the voice.

I want to save people just like All Might, I want to fulfill everyone's dream and make them happy

You know you have the power to change your destiny, just imagine what you want.

Izuku closes his eyes, he thinks of him having a powerful quirk like Bakugo's quirk but something pops in his mind, now he thinks of being able to save everyone and make everyone happy.

Looks like you have already imagined what you want, now awaken Midoriya Izuku, everyone is waiting for you. You may not know but having no quirk doesn't make you weak, it only makes you stronger, and I am sure you will someday realize that.

Izuku's eyes opened slightly and his fingers showed some sign of motion. He just had the weirdest dream of his life, he looks around and founds his mother was next to him, he feels relaxed. Inko once again hugs him asking if he is okay and whether he was hurt and was still in pain.

Izuku knows that her mother will kill Bakugo if he tells her about him, he tries to calm her down saying, "Ka-san, I am completely fine. I just got tired of playing and passed out. I am sorry Ka-san, I made you worried."

Tears came from the mother's eyes, she readily accepted the story without any hesitation but the men found it very suspicious, they wanted to ask him but didn't want to interrupt the mother-son moment.

The doctor came in along with a report, "Ms. Midoriya your boy is now completely fine. He will be all good if he takes rest for a few hours. Once he is in a good state, we will discharge him", he pats on Izuku's head and asks him to visit him whenever he is feeling good.

Both men ask Inko for leave and say that they would like to ask a few questions to her son, Inko wasn't happy to trouble her son but it was the least she could do to the ones who saved her son's life, she agreed and gave them her number. They left the room, the tall man is lost in his thoughts.

"Hey, Eraser do you think what I am thinking, doesn't his story has a lot of holes and by holes I mean a lot", Mic is serious, his cheerful face is now gone.

"The boy seems to be hiding something, moreover trying to protect someone. The marks, they looked like burn marks, they were all over his boy," The man says pulling out his phone asking for a broker, the man is no other than the Pro-Hero Eraser Head, Aizawa Shouta.
