Chapter 4: Training with the pros

2 years passed since meeting Kenshi. The 5 of them became great friends with each other. One day, Izuku was walking home from school with Ochako. After reaching her apartment room, he bid farewell to Ochako before opening the door to his own apartment. As the door opened, Toshinori was standing there with a very serious look.

"We need to have a talk," he said.

"Um..... ok," Izuku said.

He followed Toshinori to another room and he closed the door.

"Um... did I do something wrong?" Izuku asked.

"No, not at all. I just need to talk with you for a moment." Toshinori told him, "Its about my quirk."

"Your quirk?" Izuku asked.

"Well, you know that I have super strength, and can change my appearance on command yes?" Toshinori asked, "Well that's only a quarter of my abilities. The true name of my quirk, is One For All."

"One..... For..... All...." Izuku repeated.

"It is a quirk that not only bestows enhanced endurance, strength, and speed, but there is a second function to it as well," Toshinori explained, "It can be passed down from person to person."

"Wait..... passed down?" Izuku asked.

"Yes. Like a sacred sword, it has been passed down from hero to hero."

Izuku was amazed by this fact.

"I would write this down but..... I'm guessing you want this to be kept a secret," Izuku said.

"You catch on quick," Toshinori said, "One For All is a quirk that originated during the dawn of quirks and has been passed down to combat the villain and the quirk All for One. One for all was created when All for one bestowed his apparently quirkless brother with a quirk that stockpiling quirk. What he not his brother knew was that his brother did in fact have a quirk, it was a practically useless quirk that allowed the user to transfer his quirk to others. The 2 quirks combined and the younger brother became the first user of one for all. Using the very power he received from all for one, the younger brother staged an uprising against all for one's empire. He was successful in pushing his brother to the underworld, forcing him into hiding, however this win came at a great cost. The younger brother died shortly after he defeated all for one. He did pass his quirk on to his wife who fought all for one when he came back to try and take over the world once again. This cycle of the various users of one for all defeating all for one has been going on for almost 200 years now. I am the 8th user of One for All, your grandmother, Nana Shimura was the 7th user of the quirk. And I pick you to be the next wielder!"

"Me?"

"Yes, Izuku. You. I've seen how you reacted before young Bakugo stopped you. So, I thought you would be the best candidate for One for All. So, what do you say?" Toshinori asked.

"I accept!" Izuku said.

"When you get this quirk, not only will your own quirk be enhanced, but you will be granted a longer lifespan. Your grandmother was the only one beside me to have this."

"No wonder she looks so young."

(Because fuck canon)

"Yeah, anyway. You'll need some training before I give you this quirk. If you don't have a good enough vessel... well... let's just say, it's a bit too graphic to tell you at your age." Toshinori said.

"You mean my limbs will go flying off?" Izuku asked.

"Yes," Toshinori said, "And Ochako you can come in. I know you're listening"
