====================
"It's nice to see you again Detective." Akira said as he just finished giving his report to detective Tsukauchi. The man had aged well since he had last seen him. None of the bags under his eyes were present, and his face looked a lot cleaner. "Maybe you should try and grow a beard, it would look good on you."
"Yeah," Tsukauchi replied dryly, "You've blown up quite recently, my news feed is practically just you and All Might. Looks like we made the right choice that day. And as for the beard…I'll think about it."
"You made the right choice, and I'm thankful for it. You gave me a second chance which I didn't put to waste. I hope this repays the debt, so to speak."
Tsukauchi raised a brow, "Then you underestimate the debt." He said with a smirk.
"Ah! Young Akira, Detective Tsukauchi, just the people I was looking for." Akira and Tsukauchi turned their heads to see Toshinori standing there in his suit. He slightly bowed his head.
Akira smiled, "All Might, how are you doing?"
"I was doing ok, at least until I heard the news. I couldn't even arrive on time." Toshinori said with guilt in his voice, "If you weren't there, then I can only imagine what would have happened. I couldn't live with myself if my students died while I was lounging around. I shouldn't have gone overboard this morning."
"Not at all," Akira responded, "All Might, you underestimate yourself. You've practically been keeping Japan in order for decades. One mistake doesn't undo all of that. And plus, I am your successor right? I think it's time to stop trying to do everything yourself and start entrusting things to other people."
Tsukauchi nodded in agreement, saying to his friends, "All Might, you've been doing this for over 30 years…you should retire soon. Maybe finding a new hobby would help."
"Nonsense, I won't retire until Akira truly becomes the number one hero. Even then…" Akira silently praised All Might's determination. A man nearing his 60's, his body and quirk withering away, yet still he wanted to continue.
"I had Akira over here inspect that 'Nomu's' body, and he says it has multiple quirks,, do you think this means…" Tsukuachi looked towards All Might with a look of apprehension and disbelief.
All Might nodded silently. "All the more reason for me not to retire until I have beaten him a second time."
"Uhh…beaten who a second time?" Akira tilted his head, acting ignorance.
All Might cleared his throat as if he was preparing a long speech, "You might want to take a seat Akira, it's time I tell you the history of AFO and OFA."
It was a long speech.
======================
"Well, this certainly throws a problem in our plan, but it's nothing we can't fix."
"Nothing we can't fix?" Akira chuckled, leaning back in his chair, "Considering you are referencing a 200 year old supervillain as just a 'problem', I presume you have a plan?"
"Nope!" Nezu said, "From my observations, Shigaraki seems to be All for One's successor. Considering his current man-child-like personality, All for One must mean to take over his body. That means he's weak right now, his body destroyed from fighting All Might."
Akira nodded along with his deductions. Nezu continued, "It just so happens we have an up and coming hero with a powerful quirk and a perfectly healthy body. All for One is only a threat if you don't put yourself in the equation." He explained.
"You underestimate yourself too much, Akira. You can beat All for One, I know it." Nezu said with certainty.
"I suppose…" Akira recalled the fight between All Might and All for One in the series. Although All for One was strong, Akira believed right now he was much stronger than a permanently injured All for One.
"The sports festival is coming up soon, are you excited?" Nezu asked
Akira gave him a look, "Why would I be? I've graduated from UA in all but name, so I can't really participate."
"Oh don't be like that!" Nezu waved him off, "You can still watch. Security will be tight at the stadium, so I can easily ask for you to be there. Maybe you could even commentate with Aizawa and President Mic?"
"No thanks." Akira had already seen the sports festival. Without Midoriya it wouldn't be as exciting, so he would rather be at work.
Nezu sighed, "Fine, but will you atleast help put the medals on the winners?"
"If nothing comes up then sure." Akira got up from his seat, "Anyway, I should be off. Got to meet Tsukauchi at the precinct."
"Anyway," Akira got up from his seat, "I should be off. Got to meet Tsukauchi at the precinct."
"Precinct? What are you doing there?"
"It's classified." Akira smiled.

"⭐Akihiro Aburama will answer every question I ask him⭐" Akira spoke the <Order>,the words taking effect a moment later when Akihiro began confessing everything about the USJ attack.
"Only thing I know is in the underworld there was rumour going around that a group of villains were going to attack the USJ. A few weeks later there were some posters and signs up telling us where to go if we wished to attack UA. They promised compensation of over 30000 yen and a chance at killing UA students, so we took it!" The man listed off, his face betraying his words as he had a look of horror.
"Anything else? What about the blue haired man, the portal thing, and that monster. Did you get any information on them?"
"When one of the people spoke up against the guy they call Shigaraki, the blue haired one, he turned him into dust." Tsukauchi jotted down a few things on his notepad. "Aside from that, they called the monster Nomu, and said it had multiple quirks and could kill All Might. We didn't believe him, but I didn't want to turn into dust."
Akira looked towards Tsukauchi, "Is that good enough?"
After a moment, Tsukauchi nodded, "We got some information. We knew most of the stuff though. Let's wrap this up."
"Ok. Now Akihiro, could you tell us about all the crimes you have committed that the police don't know about?"Akihiro's eyes widened and he tried to cover his mouth, but Akira quickly restrained him, "There's no running away from your sins."
One by one, Akihiro began listing a plethora of crimes that would be enough to put him away for years. When everything was said and done, Akira and Tsukauchi stood outside of the interrogation room.
"Thank you for that. If you ever fancy interrogator work when your older, then you know who to call." Tsukuachi chuckled.
"Maybe in the future. If you ever need to put someone away though, call me. It's good that my quirk can be used in a court of law since I'm a hero."
"Well, it certainly works better than mine. Some smart criminals have avoided my method of questioning, or better yet just not spoken in the first place." Tsukauchi said, slightly irritated.
Akira chuckled, "Well, every quirk has its weakness."
"Except yours," Tsukauchi deadpanned.
"Well…" A weakness of Akira's quirk was that someone could catch him off guard before he could speak. After his fight with Isaac, that weakness was mostly gone. His speaking ability was so fast, incomprehensible to some. He could speak <Orders> in a split second and change his entire fighting style within the blink of an eye.
He was stronger now more than he had ever been and confident in his abilities, but he still had that nagging feeling that he needed to get even stronger, the voice in his head, the place where all of his doubts and insecurities were.
It was something he eventually needed to confront. But why did he not feel confident in this?
