Chapter 136: Plans and Executions (1)
—
After Ryukyu left, Neji t up with Gara one last ti before calling Kimi to pick him up.
When he was in the car, going back to his ho, his phone buzzed with ssage notifications.
[Toga: Boss, things went hectic in here.]
[Neji: What happened?]
Neji frowned softly and waited for Toga to reply back. Was this a prank from her side? Or did sothing big really happen?
[Toga: First off, did you know, your classmate Izuku Midoriya is associated with the league?]
Neji knew that and sighed softly. If that's the only thing that's 'hectic' then it's nothing serious… That thought of his imdiately revealed to be foolish as another ssage ca.
[Toga: Also, Shigaraki isn't actually the leader of the League… It's this one guy nad The One or whatever, I never heard of him. So what happened was…]
Toga explained the situation that occurred in the League after she returned. That part was surprising, true, but the shocking part only ca on the next ssage.
[Toga: When I regained my consciousness, Stain was already dead… His body was limply lying down on the floor with that 'The One' dude looming over his body. The shocking part is, that guy seed to have… stolen Stain's Quirk.]
"..."

Toga washed her face in the basin and returned to the main room of the League.
"It took you 20 minutes to finish?!" A large muscular guy with blue skin yelled at her, going past her towards the bathroom.
Toga clicked her tongue. "Tsk, girls need more ti than guys. But then again how would you know, you fucking virgin."
The guy, who was halfway through, turned around to glare at her from the door. But as his eyes t Kurogiri's golden gaze, he groaned and left the scene.
Kurogiri was wiping a glass of wine, like usual. Izuku and Shigaraki both were gone, taken away by All for One. So the remaining mbers sat in corners of the room, silently without any sound.
Toga woke up later than most others, so she seed to have missed quite a show based on the expressions of the others. Though it seems only Stain was killed, as he was the only one brave enough to attack The One, who swiftly took him down. After that, nobody dared to even speak.
"You're quite brave," said Kurogiri as Toga took a seat in front of him. "Everyone is silent, even avoiding eye contact, yet you are picking fights. Is it because you weren't able to see him in action?"
Toga looked at his eyes, or at least what seed like his eyes, and shrugged. The reason she wasn't worried was because of Neji. She didn't think much of it back then, but it was clear that he had multiple quirks too.
One was his Surge, which he used in the Sports Festival. One was his space manipulation or maybe pocket dinsion where he kept many things inside. At last, one was either the ability to heal wounds, or make potions that could heal wounds.
Toga was certain he had more things hidden in his sleeves, and if she had to guess he was actually hunting for All for One from the get-go. Maybe because he didn't like another person with multiple quirks? Or maybe he wanted the ability to steal other quirks. Toga didn't care enough to theorise beyond that.
"Well, I am just a bit grumpy." Toga said, taking out a knife from within her socks and starting to wipe it clean. "I heard that monster looking guy took Stain's quirk? If the rumours I heard are true, he used to give quirks like candies in the past. Hmm, if I was a core mber then maybe I would have been able to get that quirk? Just imagine, it's a perfect quirk for . I can transform into others by sucking their blood, but if I could paralyse them too, I would have been much more efficient in any job I am given."
Though she was saying it, she knew the chance of getting that quirk was slim for her.
Kurogiri simply stared at her while continuing his work without saying anything.
"By the way," Toga looked around, trying to find soone. "Where's that guy nad 'Nine'? Did he go with Shigaraki and Izuku too?"
Kurogiri gave a simple nod as Toga kept humming.

Far from that city, on the highest floor of a huge skyscraper, the scene looked as if it was sketched out of a sci-fi movie.
There were dozens of incubators filled with green liquid, with Nomus floating inside them. There was light coming out of the incubators, which softly lit the darkroom because the glass windows were shut and all the lights were turned off.
Currently, All for One sat on a large chair wearing a lot of dical equipnt. In front of him Izuku Midoriya, Tomura Shigaraki, and Nine stood.
"Midoriya, why did you think this was a good idea?" All for One, his cheek resting on his knuckles, asked. "Things could have ended badly."
"But it didn't," Izuku explained. "Because I knew you would co."
All for One stared at him, even though he lacked eyes, watching as Izuku continued.
"I and you already agreed on that plan, didn't we? We already realised Class 1-A is unneeded, so their death isn't harmful to us. But I have watched them for quite so ti, and I know if we let them grow they'll beco severely dangerous. So, while they're unneeded, their death is needed. I really think we should eliminate them, but their families would just be a bonus to unreveal the danger that the League actually poses to the public."
Shigaraki and Nine also listened to him, Shigaraki barely containing his rage. Why was he deciding about the League?!
"Unlike how we assud," Midoriya continued. "All Might's successor is in the 3rd year of high school, instead of the 1st year. We don't have any spies in those classes. But it's already too late to evaluate and then change things, we have to eliminate him as early as possible since as you know, he is unlocking the powers locked within One for All." Izuku said. "If we let him grow, he will co after , Shigaraki and even you.... Against him, we wouldn't be able to do anything."
Mirio Togata was a danger greater than All Might, and AFO knew that really well.
AFO smiled in amusent and nodded. "That's right, that's so great insight you have there. Hmm, then what do you suggest, Midoriya"
"I suggest we use Nine." Izuku said. "We were lucky enough to have succeeded with Nine's experint earlier than planned, so all we have to do is release Nine in the Sumr Camp where he will kill everyone in there and steal a few quirks since most of his slots are free anyway."
"This will make All Might assu that you have passed down your quirk to soone else, aka Nine, before your death a few years ago, and while all the heroes go after Nine, we will start the experint to perfect Shigaraki's body."
Not even Shigaraki knew, but he actually had All for One passed down on him for years, while AFO had a copy version of it. Shigaraki's body was just too weak to use the quirk right now. Which was why Doctor Kyudai started the experint on Nine to make sure the experint to strengthen and perfect Shigaraki's body for him to properly bear the quirk 'All for One' goes well.
Though even Midoriya didn't know, this was all part of AFO's plan to take over Shigaraki's newly strengthened body after abandoning his current dying one.
anwhile, Shigaraki was starting to look confused each ti a word left Izuku's mouth, and by the ti he completed talking Shigaraki didn't understand anything anymore.
"Hmm." All for One tapped his chin with a finger. "Not really a bad idea, it just needs a bit of tweaking here and there. But yes, indeed, I can now understand why you did all this. Stain isn't the type to work for our benefits, after all."
Stain would understand what's happening and he would betray the League, but that wouldn't be adequate for AFO's plans.
All for One chuckled softly and then raised his hand. "Co here, Midoriya."
Izuku, nodding, walked over as he felt All for One place his hand on his head.
"Midoriya." All for One spoke. "Stain's quirk is useless to , so I am passing it on to you. Be sure to use it for great purposes."
Izuku's eyes widened as All for One's hand glead with red energy.

"Izuku, where have you been?!" When Izuku returned ho, his mother hugged him tightly in front of the door. "I was so worried!"
Izuku hugged her back. "It's fine mom, everything's fine. Don't you worry…"
His mother drew her face back and looked at his eyes with worry. "Is anything wrong? Why do you sound like that?"
Izuku stared at her for a long ti and as if hesitating, he finally parted his lips.
"Mom… I am sorry."
…
After going back to his room, Izuku sat down on his desk and picked up a notebook.
In the notebook, he had written things in a language that nobody knew, because it was a language that... he invented for himself.
There he wrote down today's incident, writing how All for One took Stain's quirk and how he gave it to him.
Izuku Midoriya had a plan. A plan that was less important to him than capturing All Might and Bakugo, but a plan nonetheless.
This world needed a reset, it needed to go back to the ti when things such as quirk didn't exist.
For that, however, Izuku required an eraser tool. The eraser tool which was the quirk, All for One. Unfortunately, AFO picked Shigaraki as his successor and Nine as the test subject. If only Izuku could be either one of them… he didn't have to choose this path.
'I am sorry, master…'
Looking at the plan he had written on the notebook in his own invented language, Izuku apologised.
'I am sorry, even though you brought back from the pit of hell… I am going to have to kill you.'
Izuku was really sorry, but this was necessary.
