Ch 16

Izuku and All might stood in the middle of the hallway that connected each locker room for the classes at ua and the stadium. For the longest time all Izuku and All Might did was stair at each other, neither one saying a weird. The silence however was broken by All Might. He needed answers and standing around wasn't going to get him them.


AM: young Midoriya I need answers from you.


Izuku: about one for all and how I know.


AM: yes.


Izuku: ok, but I also have questions that need answers too.


AM: I can't tell you everything I know.


Izuku: then I won't tell you everything I know.


AM: young Midoriya.....


Izuku: this is a 2 way street All Might. Ether we are fully open, or we leave each other in the dark.


AM: fine, but let's take this somewhere more private.


Izuku: lead the way.


All Might led Izuku to class 1As locker room so they could have there talk in private. Apparently Bakugou and Shoto didn't come to the locker room after the incident during the second round. That ment All Might and Izuku could talk freely without unwanted listeners around.


Izuku: give who you are I believe you when you say you'll answer my questions, but just in case we will do a question for a question. If you don't answer I don't answer.


AM: fine.


Izuku: first, how exactly does the quirk work, I know it can be transferred but how?


AM: one for all is transferred by dna. The person I wish to have it has to consume some form of my dna. Know how did you find out about the quirk?


Izuku: threw investigation, your quirk is one of the biggest secrets in Japan. I knew there was more to your power then you were letting on do to the fact you always try to change the subject every time it comes up. Now what is there to prevent a villain from taking your quirk by force?


AM: can't happen, the user of the quirk has to be willing to give the power to the person.


Izuku: I see.


AM: your last answer didn't explain much, go more in-depth with it.


Izuku: I was curious as to why you never wanted to explain your quirk. So when I was studying under detective Tsukauchi I look threw there files on you. Your real name is Toshinori Yahi and according to the files your quirk is super strength. That made me more curious as to why if your quirk was just super strength why keep trying to hide it, so I dug deeper. I decided to look at your records when you first registered your quirk, that's when I saw it.


AM: that I didn't have one.


Izuku: yes, now I could have just chocked it up to being a late bloomer but that would make you the first one in history. So being unlikely that you are I came to the conclusion that you were given a power. Finding out who gave you that power was difficult though.


AM:......


Izuku: does one for all have a weakness.


AM: not exactly, it could be stopped by a nullifying quirk like Aizawa's and it putts a lot of strain on the body, but other then that there are no weaknesses.


Izuku: interesting.


AM: keep explaining your investigation.


Izuku: I decided to look up pro's that were operating around around the time that you changed your quirk registry. One caught my eye, when I saw her picture she had the same smile you do. Nana Shimura, quirk float, but every video I've seen of her she would also have inhuman amounts of strength. She also spent a lot of time at ua when you were a student there. So I had a theory you got the quirk from her. After that I just kept following the trail until I got to 2 brothers.


AM: impressive, not many people could figure out what you did.


Izuku: thank you, but I still have questions for you. What tip of quirk is one for all?


AM: it's a stockpile quirk that fused with a quirk that allows the user to pass on the power to someone else. What do you know about the 2 brothers?


Izuku: only that the older one could give and take quirks, went by all for one and pretty much ruled Japan at one point. I don't know much about the younger brother though, only that he didn't agree with his old brother and the he had one for all first.


AM: there isn't to much more to it then that.


Izuku: how does one for all work exactly?


AM: it stockpiles the power of the previous user and let's the current user use it.


Izuku: and let's that person pass it on to someone else.


AM: yes. I have one final question for you, how did you know about Mirio?


Izuku: I noticed you spending a lot of time with Mirio a boy who also seemed to have 2 completely different quirks like Nana Shimura and decided to listen in. That's also how I found out the name one for all.


AM: so you spied.


Izuku: yes.


AM: young Midoriya what you did was not ok. That was a private matter between myself and Mirio.


Izuku: I don't care, that information is important for me to know.


AM: why do you believe that.


Izuku: because I need to now how to stop it.


AM: what! Why would you need to know that?


Izuku: one for all is one of if not the most powerful quirk in the world. If some how it's user was brainwashed or controlled, or even just went rogue I need to know how to stop it.


AM: nun of that would ever happen.


Izuku: you don't know that. In a world where super powers are normal, nothing is impossible.


AM: I have faith that it won't come to that.


Izuku: and I'm positive that a criminal will do what ever it takes to win. You can't see the dangers of your quirk but I can and I will be prepared for it if the worst happens.


After Izuku spoke it became silent once again. All might knew that Izuku had a point to what he was doing, if his quirk was used for villainy some how it would be bad. Izuku also new that one for all was a amazing quirk for heroes and was pretty certain a villain would never get it. But Izuku also knew to never underestimate criminals, he learned that from his second encounter with joker at the usj.


Izuku: listen I don't believe a villain or a rogue one for all user will happen. But even so we need to be ready if it does.


AM: better to have something and not need it then to need something and not have it. I don't agree with how you got the information but I understand your reasonings.


Izuku: I'm glad we understand each other.


At that moment Precent Mic announced over the speakers that the second round of the festival was over.


AM: you better get out there.


Izuku: right.


AM: oh and Izuku.


Izuku: yes


AM: one for all only makes us more durable not invincible.


Izuku just looked at All Might then smirked.


Izuku: don't give me time to plan.


AM: excuse me?


Izuku: if I ever went rogue, don't give me time to think.


Izuku then left the locker room and made his way to the stadium. At the start of this discussion between Izuku and All Might they were on opposite sides but towards the end they began to understand each other's point of view.


Izuku mind: during my investigation All Might I learned a lot about you. And I agree with the people you are a symbol of peace. I learned something from you being a symbol, because of that the criminals and civilians know your going to win. I could never be the symbol you are. But I could be a symbol, one that strikes fear into the hearts of criminals, I could be a symbol of vengeance.


Izuku continued to make his way to the stadium, once there he gathered around the stage with the other students. Once everyone was there Midnight started explaining the final round of the festival. It would be a one on one battle tournament. Do to round 2s complications, each team in the Calvary Battle had 4 students, three teams passed so there would be 16 students fighting in the finale round. Some of the students dropped out for lose of memory and were replaced by others. Do to this the matches are.


Izuku vs Shinso


Jonathan Crane vs Sero


Ibara vs denki


Shoto vs Aoyama


Mina vs Lida


Eijirou vs Tetsutetsu


Momo vs Tokoyami


Bakugou vs Ochako


Nemuri: those are the first round matches. Now we will take a quick lunch break and be back for the finale round.


Shoto: Midoriya, I want to talk, fallow me.


Izuku mind: everyone wants to talk today.


Izuku: lead the way.


Shoto led Izuku down the hallway until the reached the exit of the stadium. Once there they sat in silence for a short time.


Izuku: Shoto why did you need to see me?


Shoto: I say you talking to All Might.


Izuku: ok, and.


Shoto: is he training you to be a hero? It would explain how even without a quirk you can still keep up with everyone.


Izuku: no. The reason I can keep up with everyone is because I trained to do so. Now I have a question, why do you hold yourself back?


Shoto:.... because of my father. He wanted to be the best, when he realized he couldn't he decided to make someone who was. My father bribed me mother's family so he could marry her. All he wanted was her quirk and in the end got me, his perfect creation. He drove my mother to madness and because of the she (touches his scar). I will never forgive him and I will show him that I can be the best with only my mothers quirk.


Izuku; I'm sorry to hear that. But your thoughts about your quirk is wrong.


Shoto: what?


Izuku: you think of it as your mothers and father's quirk, but it is neither of there's, it's yours.


Shoto: it doesn't matter I still won't use my fire side.


Izuku: it does matter, hold yourself back will not only get you killed but someone else too.


Izuku then began to walk away leaving Shoto to think about what he said.


Izuku mind: it looks like I will have to show him why he can't hold himself back. I can already tell this is going to hurt a lot.
