Of The All For One's, 1 Remains

"I am extremely surprised for you to be part of the few that managed to injure me. Someone like you is incredibly rare." AFO says before walking forward. "However time is short and I won't be able to be entertained forever so if you have shown me all of your tricks then I suppose I will finish this quickly." AFO finishes. "I can't use the quirks I used earlier. I've never even realized such quirks existed in All For One. I need to think of something fast otherwise I might be in trouble." Kuro says to himself. AFO rushes at Kuro and to his surprise, Kuro didn't defend himself. Instead, he uses his light to make a spear that headed straight toward AFO. This catches him off guard and he barely dodges but scrapes the side of his helmet on the spear. Suddenly a dark knight appears behind AFO and grabs his arms holding him down giving Kuro enough time to encase AFO in a cube of darkness and makes spikes appear all over the cube. AFO breaks out of the shadow knights grip and destroys it before all the spikes in the cube expanded and stabbed him in every direction followed by Kuro making a giant light spear and sends it plummeting towards the cube, penetrating it but suddenly a sludge-like liquid appears and AFO comes out covered in stab wounds from the spikes in the cube.

AFO begins laughing maniacally before turning to Kuro. "The game has gone on for too long. Let's finish this, shall we?" AFO says before disappearing and Kuro felt a sharp pain from his back and was sent flying into a mountain. Kuro vomits from the pain he felt and AFO grabs his neck throws him through the mountain and landing back on the ground injured and breathing heavily while covered in blood. AFO lands on top of him with his arm expanding and was coming in to punch Kuro but in the last moment, he covers his arms with light and darkness before grabbing AFO's fist while struggling to hold it from hitting him. AFO releases a shockwave right on Kuro and he feels incredible pain but pushed through and used two dark spikes to push him off. Kuro now barely able to stand uses a dark pole for support. Despite being a little fuzzy, he stands up and his vision allows him to focus enough to see AFO's arm being different. despite being abnormally large it also had rivet-like growths and overall was not a good-looking site to see. "I was saving this for All Might but something tells me that this is necessary to use this power to defeat you." AFO says while activating his ultimate skill.

"Looks like the fight is coming to a close." Ban says. "Can Kuro make a comeback?" Meliodas says. Kuro looks at AFO with worry. "I can't use the other quirks now so I can't match the power he's using." Kuro worryingly says to himself. AFO starts walking towards him holding the power in his right arm. "Shit, what am I gonna do?! I can't win like this. Think, Think!" Kuro screams at himself. He then remembers his fight with Midoriya and Bakugou and remembers Midoriya's fighting style along with Bakugou's quick maneuvers during their fight and this gave Kuro an idea. Kuro stands up and limps over to AFO which causes AFO to laugh. "You have such determination to walk up to me despite your injuries. I respect your drive and for it, I shall finish you off quickly." AFO says but Kuro kept moving forward. He then covers his entire body in darkness leaving only his eyes visible. He keeps limping forward and he expands the darkness in his left arm to the same size as AFO's and this surprised him. "He isn't using my quirk again. Could he have a limit to how long he can use other's quirks?" AFO thinks to himself. "Focus! Focus! You only have 1 chance." Kuro keeps saying to himself. Suddenly AFO disappears; "Now!" Kuro yells before activating his quirk and jumped so high and this caught AFO by surprise. He then jumps after Kuro and tries punching but Kuro dodges and uses his spike to slam him into the ground before falling towards him. "All For One!" Kuro cries out which causes AFO to smile before standing back up and both of them ready themselves for their punches. "SMASH!" Kuro cries out before both their fists collide causing a massive shockwave to spread destroying trees and blowing incredibly strong winds which blow Kurogiri away but Ban and Meliodas still sit.

He screams louder and tries forcing more energy but AFO is barely being pushed back. "You are a worthy opponent." AFO says but Kuro starts to smile which confuses AFO but he quickly understood when two spikes stabbed him in the back of the knee which causes him to struggle to push Kuro back but he quickly uses his strength-enhancing quirk to force his legs to keep standing and they caused a large crater in the ground. AFO was forced to instead push Kuro back and he was blown out but lands safely while AFO begins to breathe heavily. He turns in Kuro's direction but to his surprise, Kuro removed the darkness surrounding his body but the reason was made quickly apparent when Kuro falls to the ground unconscious. AFO begins laughing and rushes at Kuro but Ban appears and kicks him into the forest before turning to pick up Kuro and Meliodas arriving shortly after. "I'll take care of Kuro. You deal with him for me." Ban says before carrying Kuro. "You did good kid." Ban says with a smile before walking to where they were sitting.

AFO comes out of the forest and Meliodas pulls out lostvayne. "You should've stopped when he fell unconscious." Meliodas says. "It was a battle that was meant to end in my victory. It doesn't matter if the enemy is unconscious." AFO says. "I guess the same goes for you." Meliodas says. Meliodas suddenly appears in front of AFO which catches him offguard. He tries to attack but Meliodas was too fast and with Lostvayne he tries to strike him down but AFO barely maneuvers away. He quickly rushed Meliodas with his enlarged right arm but Meliodas grabs his fist with his bare hands which shocked AFO. Meliodas pushed it away before using A Thousand Devine Cuts to injure AFO but to his surprise his wounds healed almost immediately. AFO smirks when the realization hit Meliodas but to AFO's surprise he was still unaffected.

"Well, well, well, Guess I'm going to need to use it after all." Meliodas says. Meliodas once again disappeared and reappeared trying to cut down AFO but he managed to block Meliodas's attack but Meliodas immediately disappeared again and reappeared right below him. "Enchant HellBlaze!" Meliodas yells out before Lostvayne was imbued with dark purple flames and made a cut through AFO's upper body. AFO felt the pain and used a shockwave to push Meliodas away but he found the injury to be minuscule as it didn't penetrate too deep into his body but a sense of nervousness began to engulf AFO when the flames on his body would not extinguish and the wound given by Meliodas would not heal. He struggled with the pain and Kurogiri attempted to help but fell to the ground after Ban used Physical Hunt to make sure he didn't escape. "Don't interfere." Ban said to Kurogiri. "What is this?! What did you do to me?!" AFO cries out but Meliodas looks unphased with nothing but a smile on his face but that smile shifted to a dark grin when a large mark appeared on his forehead following with his eye color changing aswell. "Those flames will never extinguish no matter how much you try. If you wanted a fight to the death regardless of rather or not the opponent is unable to fight then I suppose this is where you die." Meliodas says. AFO tried to retaliate but fell to the ground from a sudden loss of strength. He can't get the energy to stand. Meliodas points Lostvayne which is covered in purgatory flames in his face.

"I suppose it's my defeat." AFO says. Suddenly Meliodas hears a voice in his head. The voice of an old man. He sees the old man in his mind. "Don't kill him Meliodas. This timeline needs him alive." the old man says. "Who are you?" Meliodas asks. "No one special but I must protest your decision to kill him. Regardless of how you feel you must not kill him, otherwise the timeline will be ruined." the old man says. Meliodas tried to ask for more information but the old man disappeared and no longer responded. Meliodas thinks for a moment before deactivating his demon mark and erasing the flames on AFO. "I'll leave you alive but don't interfere with us again." Meliodas says before walking back to Ban and Kuro. When Meliodas reaches them he's surprised to see Kuro almost completely healed but still unconscious. "What did you do Ban?" Meliodas asks. "I didn't do anything. He's just healing on his own. I suppose this must be another one of his powers." Ban replies. Kuro slowly began to regain consciousness. "What happened?" Kuro asks. "Ey!! Your awake! That was a great fight! We gotta go to a bar to celebrate!" Ban joyfully yells. Meliodas and Ban turns to Kurogiri. "Yo Smoky take us back please." Meliodas asks. Kurogiri didn't even reject the request and immediately opened a portal which they all walked through. Kurogiri then rushes to the side of AFO and assisted him in standing. "They are monsters." Kurogiri says. "Not just monsters. They're demons." AFO says while looking at his injury on his body. "I can't heal the wound he gave me." AFO says. "Impossible!" Kurogiri shocked by what he says replies. "Take me back and make sure Shigaraki avoids those individuals at all costs." AFO says before Kurogiri teleports them back.

"And that's the story" Meliodas says. Everyone is stunned by the story told by them. All Might was especially shocked with his jaw literally on the table. With no hesitation everyone in the room silently agreed. "These guys are fucking dangerous."
