I, without any personality, become a hero!

"It is impossible for anyone to defeat me by using what I have created."

"Then I'll use my fists—bore your head, Midoriya boy!"

Following Akaya Kaiun's words, All Might arrived immediately after Midoriya Izuku broke through the shadow's obstruction, and his attack was ready to strike.

“Detroit Smash!”

Upon hearing All Might's words, the instant Izuku Midoriya lowered his head, the iron fist of "Symbol of Peace" had already landed on Kaiu Akaya's face. This was the No. 1 Hero's full-force attack, powerful enough to change the weather and shatter hills. The storm generated by the full pressure alone was enough to blow a person away, not to mention All Might's merciless point-blank strike to maximize its power.

Normally, All Might would only use his punches to blow enemies away, showing mercy when dealing with them. However, this boss of the League of Villains, Kaiu Akaya, was clearly no ordinary person. He attacked without holding back, and the result was still unexpected and regrettable...

“I have no intention of taking your punch with my face, All Might. That’s AFO’s hobby.”

The black shadows formed a barrier in front of Akaya Kaiun, a thin layer that seemed as solid as a world barrier, impossible to break through without special means.

"Then go and accept your students' fists as punishment for being a negligent teacher!"

"Detroit Smash"! ! "

All Might answered Akaya Kaion's question, but the same ultimate move shout rang out. It was a full-force attack unleashed by Midoriya Izuku. He was not only Kamen Rider Faiz, but also the successor of One For All. The unique power of the two combined was presented to the world for the first time.

After the fist was thrown out, a huge recoil force was generated. Izuku Midoriya was unable to support himself and fell backward. At the same time, All Might behind him tried to catch him, but he also could not withstand the terrifying recoil force. The two of them flew backward in a straight line.

Just like the recoil generated by firing a pistol or launching a cannonball, after releasing an unprecedented force, even Izuku Midoriya did not expect that such a terrifying impact would occur. Just now, Kaiu Akaya was standing on the edge of the Kanno Ward, right by the sea... But now...

The shockwaves that split and spread from the very center destroyed everything on the land of the Shinno district and reached the sea, a feat akin to Moses parting the sea. The entire sea surface was cut into two massive shockwaves, the extent of which could not be seen with the naked eye.

"Be careful next time you unleash an attack you haven't used before. Otherwise, a lot of people will die."

Akaya Kaion was instructing his students, but the most despairing truth presented to Midoriya Izuku and All Might was that even that earth-shattering attack couldn't cause him the slightest harm. He was simply not a match for someone from another dimension.

"hateful....."

His right hand was half-crippled after using the power of "one for all," and the right arm armor of Kamen Rider Faiz was also destroyed. This was the first time that Izuku Midoriya had suffered such severe battle damage.

"It's about time to wrap this up. I have a lot of things to do."

As soon as he uttered those words, Akaya Kaiun appeared in front of All Might in an instant. His right hand, wrapped in a shadow, pressed against the hero's chest. Suddenly... All Might's eyes widened in shock as he lost all strength and consciousness and collapsed to the ground.

Goodbye, "Symbol of Peace."

"All Might!"

They exclaimed the name of the No. 1 hero, but Akaya Kaiun had already arrived in front of Midoriya Izuku. Looking at "himself" with his right arm ruined, this teacher showed no mercy.

"Remember what this lesson taught you; you can't defeat me using my methods."

"Want to defeat me? Then use your own power!"

The right hand, entwined with a dark shadow, pressed down on Faiz's rider belt. The next moment... the belt shattered into fragments, and Izuku Midoriya suffered the same attack as All Might, losing consciousness and collapsing unconscious.

Chapter 59 Social Turmoil

When Izuku Midoriya woke up, three days had passed. In those three days, Japanese society had undergone dramatic changes, the "symbol of peace" had been defeated, and the existence of professional heroes had been questioned and undermined.

The Japanese government subsequently introduced a new law to disband most professional heroes, with only those who hold high status and rank among the general public being allowed to remain.

Simply put, it's a clean break. Except for heroes who are genuinely useful to society, other professional heroes will not be recognized by the government. In short, it's a unilateral dismissal.

It's only natural that such an event would trigger riots. The professional heroes hadn't done anything wrong, yet they were fired by the government. Overwhelmed with anger, the heroes wanted to unite and confront the Japanese government, but were met with ruthless suppression.

The "Leo Riders" unit, composed of mass-produced, simplified Kamen Rider Kaixa, formed a unified force to violently suppress disgruntled heroes. Their actions demonstrated to the professional heroes that it is no longer an era where "quirks" determine everything.

The professional hero community suffered such a heavy blow, and the enemies who were originally eager to take advantage of the situation were now facing a terrifying attack. In the enemy's world, there is no such thing as mercy or leniency.

The Nomu army from the League of Villains, and the executives who lead these artificial "quirk" monsters, are known as "monsters." They use horrific methods to eliminate all enemies who might hinder the BOSS's plan, and darkness devours darkness, making it even more terrifying.

Similar to the original world of Akaya Kaiun, but with a difference... the original world had All Might as a "symbol of peace" as a pillar, while the "symbol of peace" in this world was destroyed by him personally.

Basically, the current situation in people's hearts is not the Japanese government's one-size-fits-all approach to professional heroes, nor is it a dogfight between enemy forces, but rather the light that shines in their hearts, "the symbol of peace," All Might... has been defeated.

Compared to major events that will impact the future of their own country, people are more concerned with the things that matter to them. The fall of the "symbol of peace" is definitely not just a symbolic event. All Might understands this, but Kaiu Akaya understands it even better.

"Without light in the darkness, it all comes down to the same ending."

Light and darkness coexist, as has been said from the beginning. Human nature is quite complex, and even God cannot make the world a place where only good people exist, because the development of humankind is itself a path of desire.

"It is impossible for the world to have only heroes and no bad guys, just as it is impossible for it to have only bad guys and no heroes."

"Now I'm ready to stand in the worst position and wait for the hero who can defeat me."

Akaya Kaiun's actions prepared the most difficult path to heroism for himself.

————————————————————

"Izuku, are you alright?"

Izuku Midoriya is still lying in the hospital. His mother, Iniko Midoriya, is asking her son with great concern. Although the doctor said there is nothing wrong, she wants him to stay in the hospital for observation as a precaution.

"I'm fine... What about All Might?"

"Don't worry, Midoriya-kun, I'll be fine too."

Suddenly, All Might appeared, giving a thumbs-up and an OK sign, looking like he was at full strength.

"It seems that Akaya Kaiun didn't mean us any harm. In the end, he just knocked the two of us unconscious."

All Might woke up a day early and was immediately beset by a host of troubles. After all, being defeated as a "symbol of peace" was no easy feat, and he was bombarded with interviews from reporters and inquiries from officials.

It took a lot of effort to get rid of this matter. All Might was most worried about Izuku Midoriya's condition, so he made a special trip over here.

"Young Midoriya, I have something to say to you."

"Um... I'll go out for a bit..."

Although she didn't quite understand the current situation, Midoriya's mother wisely decided to avoid the topic for a while, as her child might have some secret relationship with All Might.

After Inoko Midoriya left, only All Might and Izuku Midoriya remained in the hospital room. The No. 1 Hero hesitated for a moment before speaking:

"To be honest, Akaya Kaiun did nothing wrong. Compared to me, a 'symbol of peace,' his actions might have brought more peace to society."

"However, as a human being, I will not forgive all for one's actions, so don't let my relationship with you interfere with your choice."

To be honest, All Might didn't want to see Izuku Midoriya and Kaiu Akaya become enemies. From the perspective of being a hero, All Might thought Kaiu Akaya was a good person, at least his starting point was correct, it's just that his methods were a bit extreme, but he didn't harm innocent people... In the end, it was still acceptable.

However, as someone who was hurt by All For One, All Might could never forgive that man for killing his mentor, Nana Shimura. If he forgot this hatred... All Might felt that he wouldn't even deserve to be a human being.

"I don't know what kind of impact the 'League of Villains' will have on society, whether it will be good or bad, and I can't judge. But one thing will never change: as a hero... even if the 'Symbol of Peace' has fallen, I will continue to act."

"Whenever someone needs a hero's help, All Might will always appear."

"But....."

Hearing these words, Izuku Midoriya felt a little sad, and he couldn't help but think of what Kaiun Akaya had said before.

"All Might, you've given me your Quirk 'One For All,' so you can't continue acting as a hero for much longer."

"It's alright, Midoriya-kun, aren't you the same? When I first met you, you were a 'Quirkless' but you were determined to become a hero, and later you were the first to step forward and save people. It made me feel really embarrassed at the time."

"It wouldn't hurt to let teachers and students learn from me occasionally, right? Even without a 'quirk,' I can still continue to act as a hero."

"The decisive factor in becoming a hero is not 'personality,' but a person's beliefs!"

This is All Might's choice. He has spent most of his life as a hero and will continue down this path. He doesn't know whether society needs professional heroes, but he is certain of one thing... In this world, at some point in time, everyone will need the help of a hero.

Heroes exist for this very moment, without any complicated reasons; they simply exist to help others.

"I....."

Unable to utter any more words, Izuku Midoriya was at a loss for what to do. Everything Kaiun Akaya did was right, but he couldn't be a right fool. His idol since childhood was All Might, and it was because he wanted to become a hero like All Might that Izuku Midoriya punched Kaiun Akaya at that time.

Unable to bear the thought of their respected and admired hero being exploited, they acted on emotion rather than reason, leading to their decision to sever ties and make a choice.

"Don't think too much about it. You're just a student right now. Focus on your studies!"

Without deliberately making things difficult for Izuku Midoriya, All Might patted him on the head and then turned and left... The No. 1 Hero still has a lot to do.

--------------

The crisis surrounding professional heroes has affected the entire society. Not only are hero schools of all sizes affected, but even U.A. High School has been greatly impacted. The Japanese government will strictly control the number of professional heroes, and it will no longer be possible for just anyone to become a hero.

The difficulty of becoming a hero has increased exponentially. What was once a one-in-a-hundred graduation rate will likely be reduced to one in a thousand people becoming a professional hero. This absolute elimination rate will limit the number of professional heroes to a very small range.

As for why the Japanese government didn't implement this policy before? Do you think the higher-ups didn't want to? Politicians who rise to power aren't stupid, but without the power to implement it, what's the point?

At that time, the government was controlled by powerful financial families. These people were initially oppressed by All For One until All Might appeared and liberated them. The current Japanese government is barely able to carry out administration, and the maintenance of peace and order is entirely up to the heroes.

The professionalization of heroes is a product of the present day. However, this approach has not been effectively curbed. After a large number of professional heroes emerged in a short period of time, the security environment was indeed effectively guaranteed, and the people's support also shifted entirely to the heroes.

As a result, by the time the Japanese government realized that social resources were misallocated, it was too late... Everyone wanted to become a hero, and professional heroes made up a large proportion of society, making it impossible to restrict them.

After all, enemies often emerge to commit crimes in society. People are eager for more heroes, let alone the possibility of reducing them. Ordinary people trust professional heroes, the Japanese government is powerless to act, and the enemy's influence has never ceased. These three vicious cycles have led to the birth of a hero society.

Finally, the emergence of the "League of Villains" resolved all three problems with overwhelming power, defeated All Might, the "Symbol of Peace," and granted the Japanese government the power of the "Leo Cavalry," directly annihilating all enemies who dared to commit crimes, thus dismantling and eliminating the hero society.

However, the existence of professional heroes is still necessary, so even though U.A. High School has been affected, classes still need to be held.

Of course, having been so greatly affected, the students of U.A. High School have completely lost their fighting spirit. They are basically lifeless in class. After all, it would be strange if they could continue to attend class without a care in the world after so many things have happened.

"I haven't seen All Might lately..."

"It seems like there are a lot of things to take care of, and no time to come to U.A. High School."

"Then... what about Midoriya-kun?"

The girls in the class were talking cautiously, and Ochako's topic eventually turned to Izuku Midoriya. The students were greatly shocked to learn that Kaion Akaya was the boss of the League of Villains, and of course everyone knew that Izuku Midoriya was the one who was most affected.

"Still in the support department's office... I haven't even come to class yet."

Yaoyorozu Momo answered Ochako. As the vice class representative, she was quite clear about the situation. The homeroom teacher, Aizawa-sensei, didn't say anything about the situation. It seemed that even U.A. High School had tacitly approved of Izuku Midoriya's behavior. After this series of events, it was no longer the hero society it used to be.

"I want to go see Midoriya-kun... Is he alright...?"

"If you want to see it, let's go together and drag that guy out!"

Bakugo Katsu forcefully interrupted the girls' conversation, his face contorted with rage. He didn't care how all these events affected Midoriya Izuku; he was simply furious and wanted to drag the person hiding in his room out. What kind of situation was this?

"Don't get too excited. Let's all go and see Midoriya. This has been a huge blow to him."

It was Iida who made a valid point. After all, none of them were there at the time and couldn't know exactly what happened between Izuku Midoriya and Kaion Akaya, but it certainly wasn't a problem that could be solved easily.

Under these circumstances, the students in Class A were still quite united. They went to the support department together at noon. However, there were far fewer students at U.A. High School now. It seemed that the events of the past few days had had a great impact, and many students' parents had called their children home.

Upon arriving at the Support Department building, Akaya Kaion's office and laboratory were not difficult to find. The students of Class A quickly reached their target location, but the tightly locked steel door prevented them from entering.

After knocking and ringing the doorbell to no avail, Squad Leader Iida scratched his head and said:

"Maybe Midoriya isn't here. Should we come back another time?"

"Impossible, that guy must be hiding inside!"

Katsuki Bakugo, who has a bad temper, was clearly about to resort to force, judging from the explosions constantly erupting from his hands. Fortunately, someone spoke up and stopped him.

What are you doing here?

"You are... Shinso Hitoshi?"

He called out the name of the person he had met at the U.A. Sports Festival when he first arrived here; it was none other than Shinobu Hitoshi, a fellow student of Midoriya Izuku.

Iida Tenya quickly explained his purpose for coming here, and Shinso Hito nodded to indicate that he understood, then used his ID card to open the door to the support department's laboratory.

However... Midoriya Izuku was indeed not inside.

"Where did that guy go!?"

"I'm not in a position to explain this, but you'll understand once you see it."

"What is this!?"

Following the direction Shinso pointed, Bakugo Katsutoshi was shocked to find the rider belt in pieces, though its shape and color still roughly identified it as a FAIZ belt.

"These are the things the police collected from the scene. FAIZ's belt has been destroyed. Midoriya has been very troubled by this for a while."

"How can I create my own knight's belt?"

A bounty has been offered!

I, without a personality, became a hero!

The fourth volume is already halfway finished; this is the final wrap-up reward.

I'll add an extra chapter for every 100 blades or 10000 reward, but I can only update a maximum of 5 chapters a day... I can't handle more than that. The reward period is from March 19th to March 31st, with no upper limit on the reward.

What if the reward is too high and the book is finished before it can be paid off?
