All Might looked at All for One. It had been six years since he'd last saw him face to face, and even after all this time All for One still made his skin crawl. "I won't let you get away this time All for One. I will defeat you and see that you spend the rest of your miserable life in prison!" All Might shouted at the villain who clapped his hands.

"What a wonderful speech All Might you really are quite the orator, still I wonder if you can go through with that. Its only five kilometers from the bar to here and it took you nearly thirty seconds to arrive. Are you feeling alright Symbol of Peace?" All for One asked taunting the hero, but All Might's smile never wavered.

"I appreciate your concern, but you should save some of that for yourself what with that fancy life support mask of yours. Elderly people should take it easy don't you think?" All Might asked before launching himself at All for One. The villain met All might with equal force the two locking hands in a devastating clash that whipped dust into the air and shattered the ground beneath them. All Might let go first to throw a punch which All for One dodged away from before blasting his air canon at All Might forcing the hero to block as he slid across the ground before diving back in. "Texas Smash!"

All Might slammed his fist into All for One's open palm. "Impact Inversion." The villain stated before All Might felt a ripple in his punching arm that threw the limb back opening him up for a right cross from All for One as the hero was thrown to the side cartwheeling before getting to his feet again. "My that was quite a weak punch All Might are you holding back against me?" All for One asked as All Might wiped the blood from his lip. "Oh I see it's because you don't want to endanger your precious fans with your full strength." All for One stated pointing up at the helicopter circling overhead and the civilians still in Kamino being evacuated.

"You heroes have so much to protect it must be exhausting." All for One said with a laugh as All Might glared at him.

"You have no idea what we heroes have to bear with villains like you around. All you see are tools to be used until they break and then thrown away, but these are living breathing human beings doing their best to live happy lives. Don't you dare mock them!" All Might said as he rushed in throwing a punch which All for One brought his hand up to block only to have All Might grab his hand and drive his fist into the villain's face and slam him to the ground shattering his mask and revealing his scarred and eyeless visage.

"Did I upset you?" All for One asked from his position on the ground. "I've heard those words before, maybe not exactly, but each of you always say the same thing. All of you say you're going to stop me, or defeat me, but here I still am. Not Naruto, Luffy, or even your precious master could kill me. Out of all of my brother's successor only two of you have ever come close to achieving his dream of defeating me, and you are counted among that very short list All Might. I'm sure your master would be proud, the failure that she was she should be. What an arrogant woman she was believing that she would be the one to finally defeat me. The fact that she was chosen to be a successor still turns my stomach." All Might gripped All for One's arm with all his strength.

"I've killed all of my brother's successors, and I enjoyed each one, but hers was truly a work of art if I do say so myself. Would you like to hear how pathetic she was as she died?" All for One asked before All Might reeled back.

"Shut your mouth!" He shouted about to punch All for One once again only to be blasted upward by an air cannon sending him spiraling straight towards the helicopter only to be grabbed midair by Gran Torino as the number one hero coughed up blood.

"You're letting him get to you Toshinori just like you did five years ago. You can't keep falling for this or this time you'll lose more than your stomach!" Gran Torino admonished as All Might nodded.

"Sorry sir I'll be careful." All Might apologized before standing tall again.

"Well this has been fun All Might, but it's time we end this. The air cannons I've given you up to now were only pellet guns compared to this one." All for One threatened as his arm bulged with increasing power.

"Move Toshinori!" Gran Torino shouted, but before All Might could get clear All for One brought his attention to the bystander behind him.

"Not all of us can move that fast All Might will you sacrifice her like that?" All for One said as he blasted All Might with full force. A plume of dust rose from the ground as the news copter circled. Across the world people watched the plight of the number one hero, but none were so invested as the green haired boy hiding nearby.

The dust cleared to reveal the true form of All might the skeletal man in clothes much too big for him. "And there we have it. The true form of the world's greatest hero, hollow cheeks and sunken eyes, truly a pathetic sight." All for one taunted as All Might let his bloodied fist fall.

"Say what you want All for One, show the world what I really look like, it doesn't change the fact that I'm still their hero, and no matter what you do that won't change!" All Might said his skeletal smile still there.

"I forgot how stubborn you are All Might. I should just give up shouldn't I?" All for One asked before smiling just as wide as All Might. "But before I surrender I should let you know that my student Tomura is your precious master's grandson." All Might looked at All for One his grin slowly fading as his eyes widened in shock.

"Y-you're lying!" Shouted All Might as All for One laughed.

"Now, now All Might I've never lied to you, you know this is exactly something I'd do. Grooming your master's descendant to hate you and all you stood for." All Might gripped his head as this thought ran through his mind. "Yes think back, to how you trampled over him with that big smile of yours. What would she think of you now?" All for One asked as All Might's knees shook.

"S-she'd be so disappointed in me. I-I can't believe how he turned out!" All for One laughed at this.

"What's this it looks like I've stolen some of that heroic pride of yours after all! Don't worry you won't have to live with your shame for long." All for One said raising his fist. "I'll crush you until there's nothing left with the full power of all the quirks I've collected to now!" All for One shouted as his right arm began to swell with the power of dozens of quirks until it formed a monstrous limb at his side.

All Might still in his shock didn't even bother looking up until he heard the voice of the woman he'd been protecting. "P-please All Might y-you have to w-win. Please win!" She shouted as All Might's head swam with images of his master and Shigaraki. How could I let his happen? I'm so sorry Master!"

"Good bye All Might!" Shouted All for One as he barreled down on the hero, but before his attack could land All for One was struck in the side by Izuku. All Might looked up and saw Izuku both his feet drilling into All for One's side before he bent his knees compressing himself before springing back to his full height and sending All for One shooting away to land and skid across the ground before plowing into a pile of rubble.

Izuku landed on the ground in front of All Might red steam fading from him as he looked at the number one hero. "Don't give up All Might, you can win this I know you can. I and the rest of the world believe in you. Win this!" Shouted Izuku pulling the frail form of All Might to his feet and stared him in the face. All Might took in this moment seeing Izuku's raw belief etched on his face. All Might coughed as he pulled himself to his full height.

"I'm sorry Young Midoriya, you're right this is a fight I can't lose. If you would Young Midoriya take care of the lady behind us while I finish this." All Might said walking forward as muscles appeared on his right arm. Izuku smiled and nodded.

"Of course All Might!" Izuku said summoning his Kyuubi cowl and appeared before the woman like the sun. She weakly shielded her eyes from Izuku's bright form as he sent his tails into the rubble wrapping around her body and stabilizing the rubble as he pulled her free. She clutched at Izuku's neck soaking his shirt with her tears. "You're alright I've got you, I won't let anything happen to you." Izuku whispered holding her to his chest and taking one last look at All Might before leaping away to safety.

Iida, Kirishima, and Bakugou looked at the giant screen in the plaza they were in seeing Izuku appear on screen of course only they knew who he was, but watching him send All for One flying was something else. Iida slapped his hand into his palm repeatedly. "He tricked me; he tricked me he was supposed to be here with us! The deception Midoriya!" Iida railed at the screen as Kirishima spoke with Todoroki. From the screen came the reporter's voice.

"Right as it seemed the end for All Might a boy rushed in to save the hero, and is now evacuating a nearby civilian trapped under rubble. Whoever this boy is I applaud his heroic actions." The reporter spoke.

From the UA conference room Nezu, Vlad and Aizawa looked at the screen seeing Izuku there. "He's out of his mind what is he even doing there!?" Shouted Nezu as Vlad looked at Aizawa whose face a mixture of anger and pride.

"That idiot can't help himself!" Shouted Aizawa.

In the Asui household Tsu looked at the TV with her younger siblings as Izuku raced off screen. Izuku what have you done!? She shouted mentally as she watched the love of her life put himself in danger yet again, why did he feel the need to go so far? This question was mirrored by each of the girls in 1A, but none had that thought more fervently than Inko Midoriya as she prayed furiously for her son's safety so she could punish him later.

Rubble erupted as All for One got to his feet. "I've felt that power seven times in my life I'd know it anywhere. You passed it on didn't you All Might? That boy is your successor, and he's here to save you All Might, how pitiful. What are you teaching him?" All for One asked as All Might walked towards him.

"After I kill you I'll find him, and take back what is mine. None of you deserve that power!" All for One shouted as he rushed at All Might.

"You're right I am pitiful All for One. The fact that my student felt he needed to save me, and the pathetic face I showed him when he did. I have so much to make up for, and that's why I won't die, I won't let you kill me until I've made up for all my mistakes and made sure that Izuku Midoriya is an even greater hero than I was!" All Might shouted slamming his fist forward as it impacted with All for One's. "United States of Smaaaaassssh!"

Izuku lay the woman down near an emergency station as paramedics attended to her. As they did so a massive boom could be heard as it shook the ground and shattered the windows around them. Izuku lay over the woman feeling shards of glass rain down around him before he looked back seeing a plume of dust rise into the sky. "All Might." Izuku said as green lightning arced around him before he rushed off back to the battlefield. As he arrived he could see the silhouette of someone in the cloud of dust and as it cleared a smile broke out on his face as it was revealed to be All Might. "All Might!" Shouted Izuku waving until the dust cleared fully and he saw the true nightmare before him. All Might was hanging from four spikes driven through his chest. The spikes were revealed to be All for One's ribs arcing out of his chest.

"Spear like bones All Might, you never did learn how to fight craftily. A hero on the brink of death is a fearsome thing I know that well which is why I had to think carefully about how to kill you!" Shouted All for One as he slung All Might's body to the ground as the bones retracted into his body. Izuku's eyes widened looking at the blood drenched corpse in front of him as he heard a primal scream in his mind.

All for One looked at the perimeter of the battlefield sensing something there and with his infrared vision he saw the heat signature of someone. "Is that you Izuku Midoriya?" All for One asked smirking before energy blasted from the boy's body swirling around him blocking his heat signature somewhat. "What is that?" All for One asked as those with eyes could see a spiraling cloud of purple energy coming from Izuku's body like a thick mist permeating the area before it dispersed in a fearsome blast and Izuku was gone.

All for One looked around before feeling someone slap him hard forcing him to the ground as he cartwheeled away. Izuku stood in place where All Might had, but he was different. He looked much the same except for the black mark on his forehead, a ragged black dot and above it a black arch. His eyes had lost all trace of green and instead were deep black like an endless void as dark purple energy arced from him like lightning. All for One looked at the boy as he spit out blood. "Oh yes now that power I am truly familiar with. My former right hand, and first apprentice. Hello Demon of Wrath; Meliodas!" All for One said laughing as Izuku stared at him lifelessly watching as All for One rose into the air.

Izuku stared at him as he reached his apex before the swirling darkness he'd conjured appeared at his back forming wings that propelled him fiercely into the air at All for One. The villain raised a hand as he blasted an air cannon only for Izuku to avoid and slam his fist into All for One's palm. "Impact Inversion." All for One spoke watching as the force of Izuku's punch was directed back at him, but instead of destroying his arm it retracted under the force. "Luffy?!" All for One said shocked before Izuku fist drove into his stomach forcing blood from the villains' mouth as he began to fly back only to be gripped by a glowing purple tail similar to Naruto's.

All for One coughed as the tail squeezed his neck. Izuku held up his hand as small purple flecks appeared in the air above his palm.

"Devil's blizzard." He said as the black flecks shot forth blasting through all for one puncturing him with small holes as the villain groaned at the pain before unleashing a full body air cannon wrenching Izuku's tail from his neck as the boy was blasted to the ground along with the news copter that fell nearby.

"That's definitely you Meliodas. Have you come from beyond the grave to avenge Elizabeth? You truly are wrathful. Are you going to have this boy kill me because you couldn't?" All for One asked as he dropped to the ground panting. This fight had been taxing on him taking on a weakened All Might and now this it was too much. Izuku stood up from the crater he'd made the scratches and cuts on his body oozing shadow that immediately repaired his wounds.

"Now that's cheating Meliodas." All for One said as Izuku took the stance for his Mamba Smash. Izuku's fist rocketed forth at All for One who dodged to the side only to have to jump forward as Izuku's fist followed after him opening up to reveal Naruto's Rasengan. All for One took off flying across the ground as Izuku's arm chased after him until All for One drove his fist into the ground causing it to erupt around him having Izuku's Rasengan slam and shatter the large block of stone before retracting back to him.

All for One flew at Izuku grabbing the boy by the neck. "You overestimate your abilities boy. None of you could beat me!" Shouted All for One as he slammed Izuku into the ground dragging him along the ground as the villain flew along only for the weight to disappear from his hand. All for One looked down seeing that his entire arm was gone and there stood Izuku his arm draped in purple energy taking the form of a blade as he dropped All for One's arm to the ground.

All for One looked between his severed limb and the boy before him as Izuku's face finally changed sporting a vicious smirk before rushing forward and slamming All for One into the wall of the crater and once pinned held up his hand gathering a Rasengan that slowly grew larger and larger until it was the size of a car and then All for One saw the purple energy begin to bleed into the spiraling ball enlarging it further until it's mere presence whipped up a small tornado. "Die." Izuku said before driving the Rasengan into All for One.

The people of the world watched this battle of monsters culminating in a massive explosion that cut out the feed. Standing above All for One in the crater he'd created Izuku stared down at the villain who remarkably was still breathing. Izuku kneeled upon the villains chest before raising his fist and driving it into All for One's face.

In his mind Izuku sat balled up his knees to his face as he cried for the death of his hero. Around him outside the darkness he could hear voices shouting. "Meliodas stop his body can't take this!" A woman's voice cried out. Somewhere Izuku remembered that All Might's master had been a woman. He wondered if that was her.

Izuku held his head as the image of All Might's crumbled and bloody body ran through his mind. "I couldn't do anything; all this power and I still couldn't help All Might! I'm useless Katsuki was right I really am nothing but a worthless Deku!"

"That's not true Young Midoriya!" Shouted an all too familiar voice as a hand was placed on his shoulder. Izuku looked up into beaming smile of All Might at his prime over seven feet tall rippling with muscles and dressed in his Golden Age costume. "I won't stand for this Young Midoriya. You more than anyone else have helped me. I was lost thinking of who to give One for All to, but then you came along. A quirkless boy who refused to give up and continued pushing forward. You gave me exactly what I wanted in a successor and made me want to be better." All Might kneeled down to Izuku and hugged him to his chest.

"You Izuku Midoriya will be an even greater hero than me I truly believe that, but first you have to take back control of your power. Don't let my death hold you back you will overcome this." All Might explained as he stood up and held his hand out to the young hero. Izuku looked down at himself for a moment before grabbing hold of All Might's hand as his brilliant yellow shattered the darkness around the two. "I'll be watching over you Young Midoriya always." Toshinori Yagi said as Izuku was pushed back into his own body.

"Midoriya stop!" Izuku looked up at the edge of the crater seeing an assortment of heroes standing there. Endeavor, Edgeshot, and Pixiebob being a few. Izuku looked at where he was kneeling atop of All for One with his fists covered in blood and the villain's face hardly recognizable, but sitting atop him Izuku could feel his heartbeat.

"I-I'm sor-!" Izuku began to apologize only to have something strike him in the back of the head. The last thing he remembered is falling into Pixiebob's arms as the world went dark.

Across the world images of Izuku's berserk battle with All for One played on millions of screens everyone asking who this kid was, and how powerful he was, there were also those with a tenor of fear in their hearts at the brutality he displayed against the villain. All of Class 1A marveled at the power of their class rep, but were also scared about what would be done with him after such a publicized event. Katsuki grit his teeth before tossing his cellphone into the wall. "I didn't fucking ask you to save me Izuku!" He growled clenching his fist as worry seeped in through the anger. He knew something bad was going to happen to Izuku because of this, because of him.

Inko was on her knees praying as she looked at the static of the news channel that had been broadcasting her son's fight. She prayed for her son to be ok with all she had all she was concerned with was that her baby boy was ok. She clutched at her chest feeling her hammering heart in her chest. Inko stood up heading for the door. If he was going to be taken anywhere it would have to be UA.

Izuku slowly began to open his eyes looking up at the ceiling of a hospital room, indicated by all the medical equipment at the side of his bed as he turned his head. He groaned lifting his arm that felt as if it was made of lead. His ears picked up the sound of a cane and he turned his head to see Recovery girl at the side of his bed in her hero suit. Even through her pink visor Izuku could see that her eyes were puffy and red from crying. He opened his mouth to speak only for his voice to come out like gravel. "Recovery Girl?" He rasped before coughing as the heroine produced a cup of water with a straw.

"Here drink this; it'll give me time to explain." She said as Izuku drank from the straw feeling the ice cold water ease his sore and dry throat. "You've been asleep for five days. You put your body through something terrible and it took that long for me to heal you and your body to recuperate. I just let everyone know you're awake so they'll be here soon, but before then I'll answer whatever questions you have. We owe you that much." She said drawing away the almost empty cup.

"Five days since Kamino, does that mean that All Might really is-is…?" Izuku couldn't bring himself to say the words so Recovery girl said them for him.

"Dead? Yes he is I'm afraid to say." Recovery Girl answered wiping her eye as she watched Izuku crumble under the weight of that admission. Izuku's throat tightened as images of All Might ran through his mind from his debut video to him seeing off his class to the training camp. Tears streamed down his face as he closed his eyes. Recovery Girl placed her hand on Izuku's squeezing it slightly.

"I know we all feel the same way son, let it out." She whispered as the boy cried for his mentor and his inability to save him.

The door to the infirmary opened to find Recovery Girl at Izuku's side as the boy stared down into his blanket as if it held all the answers. Principal Nezu walked into the room followed by Aizawa. Izuku looked up with bloodshot eyes at the two seeing his own pain reflected in their faces. Nezu's coat lacked the luster it usually had and his black eyes didn't shine with joy like normal instead only reflected the light of the room like the lifeless eyes of a stuffed animal.

Aizawa seemed more haggard than usual his eyes bloodshot and his hair much messier. "It's good to see you're awake Midoriya." Principal Nezu greeted as he climbed into a chair at the other side of Izuku's bed looking at all the get well cards and balloons. "Truly your classmates really care about you." Nezu said lifting up a large card about the same size as himself and scrawled inside were the names of all of Class 1-A and even a few heroes had taken the time to sign it as well. "You've touched a lot of lives Izuku Midoriya which is what makes this so hard." Nezu said sitting down the card as he looked at Izuku who stared back at him. His eyes were dark almost lifeless.

"You participated in the Kamino Ward incident and though you were the only reason that All for One was captured, you committed a crime in doing so. You are not a hero, nor are you licensed. Using your quirk to attack someone is strictly forbidden, were this any other situation you would be facing jail time, but your actions were televised showing the world what you did. The police force is not quite willing to take action against you, but there must be a reckoning for your actions." Nezu explained. Still Izuku's face hardly changed. Nezu took a deep breath before speaking again.

"Izuku Midoriya I hereby expel you from UA."
