I, without any personality, become a hero!

All Might spoke firmly. Although he believed Nighteye's words, he was also willing to believe in Midoriya. If Midoriya really did become the hero's enemy, it would definitely be for some reason. As the "symbol of peace," All Might would not stand idly by.

All we need to do now is, as always, believe in and encourage Izuku Midoriya, and help him strive to become a true hero.

All Might wouldn't hurt a kind child because of a terrible future. If he really had such thoughts, he wouldn't be the No. 1 hero worshipped by everyone.

"But......."

"There are no 'buts,' just listen to me..."

All Might stopped Nighteye from saying anything more, suggesting that everyone just pretend this never happened and let the future take its course.

"However, if we don't stop it now, many people may be harmed in the future!"

"So how do you intend to stop it? Are you planning to kill Midoriya?!"

Nighteye's forced explanation only made All Might a little angry. After all, this was the future he saw, but All Might would never agree to it if it hurt Izuku Midoriya!

"........."

Nighteye remained silent. He knew that once All Might made a decision, it wouldn't change, but the vision of the future he saw was simply too dire...

"I agree with Allmight's opinion!"

"million?"

The person who suddenly spoke up caused All Might and Nighteye to simultaneously turn their gazes to the wall beside them. It was Mirio Togata's face that had been revealed. He had used his "Permeate" Quirk to eavesdrop on everything.

"I'm sorry, sir!"

"When Midoriya left, he said that you seemed to be in a bad state, and Bubble Girl also informed All Might, so I was a little worried about your condition and secretly hid in the office and heard everything."

Unexpectedly, besides All Might and Nighteye, Mirio Togata, who was lurking in the office, also overheard Midoriya's vision of the future.

"In short, I believe in the future you envision, sir, but I also agree with Allmat's approach."

Mirio Togata, who emerged from the wall, stood before All Might and Nighteye, raised his index finger, and said:

"However, we can compromise on this matter a bit."

"Midori spends most of his time at U.A. High School now, where All Might is keeping an eye on him. In the future, your agency will handle his activities outside of school, so you can keep an eye on Midoriya personally."

"If any bad signs are detected, it's not too late to take appropriate action to stop them, right?"

All Might and Nighteye reluctantly accepted the suggestion made by Toru Mirio.

Although All Might completely trusts Midoriya, it's not a problem to keep a close eye on him to prevent him from going astray; and Midoriya's hero activities at Nighteye's Office are also arranged by Nighteye himself, which can also serve as a form of surveillance.

"Besides, as a senior, it's only right that I pay more attention to Midoriya, isn't that enough?"

"Hmm... I agree with Million's opinion, let's do it this way."

Allmite agreed, saying it was a reasonable approach and could help prevent a bad future.

"But... okay, I agree too."

Nighteye was still somewhat hesitant, but seeing All Might and Mirio Togata staring intently at him, he could only reluctantly agree to the plan.

But this still won't work... Nighteye understands his own "precognition" quirk; ever since... the future scenes he sees are destined to happen, and this time...

It's a little too bad...

Chapter 80 The Predestined Future

The week-long hero training program has ended. When Izuku Midoriya and Mirio Togata returned to school to say goodbye to Nighteye, for some reason... Nighteye himself also came to U.A. High School with Midoriya and Mirio.

Nighteye, what's going on?

In the teachers' office, Nighteye found All Might and seemed to have something to say. All Might put down his work and followed Nighteye to the lounge for a private chat.

"Regarding Izuku Midoriya, although I agreed with Mirio's opinion, I've thought about it a lot afterward..."

"Hey, I won't allow you to do anything out of line!"

That's not what I meant...

Slightly annoyed, Nighteye waved his hand to indicate he had no ill intentions, and then earnestly said to All Might:

"I visited 'Hero Killer' in prison a couple of days ago, hoping to get information about the League of Villains from him."

"Did you find anything?"

"No, he contacted the League of Villains through the black mist 'portal,' so he had no idea of ​​the exact location of their hideout."

As All Might pondered, Nighteye continued:

"Comparatively, I'm more interested in 'Hero Killer' Stein as a person."

"His real name is 'Crimson Bloodstained,' and he once attended a private hero high school, but later dropped out."

"Later, he proposed the concept of 'the return of the hero,' arguing that professional heroes in modern society lack pure faith, and pointing out that a hero must be like All Might."

"Forehead.........."

All Might was speechless for a moment, feeling that he was partly responsible for the actions of "Hero Killer" Stain, but he could only feel helpless and very apologetic.

"In short, his 'hero's return' speeches in society didn't resonate with many people, and disheartened, he chose another path."

"The alias 'Crimson Bloodstained' became Stain, and spent ten years self-studying 'killing techniques,' earning him the title 'Hero Killer' through his relentless hunting of professional heroes."

"He's someone who's taken the wrong path..."

All Might lamented, "How did someone who could have become a great hero end up like this?"

Night Eyes didn't stop; he continued recounting his prison visit from the previous two days:

"Furthermore, based on what I understand, Izuku Midoriya told me that after 'Hero Killer' used his Quirk to restrain him, he voluntarily let him go, which makes me a little curious."

"So when I visited Stein in prison, I asked him that question, and this is how the 'hero killer' replied to me."

"Is that kid named Izuku Midoriya? He's different from all those imposters in society these days, so I'm letting him go. He's a true hero!"

Is that so...?

As Nighteye told him what happened, All Might felt even more sorry for "Crimson Bloodstained," thinking that if he had walked the right path, he would have been an invaluable hero.

"That's the gist of it. Even the notorious 'Hero Killer' considers Izuku Midoriya a true hero, so I shouldn't look at him with prejudice."

"Are you also going to believe in Midoriya?"

All Might seemed quite pleased, but Nighteye, expressionless, adjusted his glasses and said coldly:

"We can't completely trust them either. The case of the 'Hero Killer' serves as a cautionary tale. If we don't keep a close watch on them, they could easily fall into darkness."

"You can rest assured, I will keep a close eye on Midoriya at school."

"I will keep an eye on him during his off-campus heroic activities, but if there are any signs of trouble, I will take immediate action."

"Please don't... You absolutely have to let me know about this..."

..............

As Nighteye and All Might's conversation was nearing its end, and Nighteye was about to leave, he turned back and solemnly said to All Might:

"I don't want to see that kind of future unfold before my eyes, where a million people fall in pools of blood, and all the heroes are wiped out."

"Even Allmight, you were powerless to stop all of this..."

"If such a bad sign were to emerge, I would nip it in the bud."

All Might remained silent. He knew that Nighteye was just like that, but there was nothing he could do about it... Nighteye had to take responsibility for the future he saw.

As Nighteye left and All Might prepared to go to class, no one noticed that their private conversation in the lounge had been overheard by a third ear...

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

In a room on the top floor of the tallest building in Kanno Ward, a man with fleshy growths on his head and mouth listened with great interest to the messages conveyed by the hidden chess pieces.

"I was just thinking that All Might would teach at U.A. High School, but the random chess game I set up has yielded such results."

The man's face broke into a long-lost smile of joy. His name was "all for one," All Might's nemesis, or rather, "one for all's" nemesis.

The Quirk "One For All" that All Might inherited was born in the hands of this man; justice was born from evil.

All For One's Quirk is the ability to plunder and bestow "Quirks." Before All Might appeared, the whole of Japan could be said to be manipulated by this man, a country ravaged by evil people.

Several years ago, in the final battle between All For One and All Might, this man's head was smashed by All Might. When he was almost killed by All Might, he used the death of the seventh generation of "One For All" to provoke All Might.

While All For One distracted All Might with words, he ambushed and severely injured him, and the man, barely clinging to life, eventually escaped and survived.

The later All For One and All Might are actually quite similar; both are severely disabled, essentially just crippled individuals barely clinging to life.

That's why Afo hates All Might, the number one hero, who defeated all his comrades and made him suffer like this, barely surviving like a sewer rat.

"Nighteye really sees an interesting future!"

Afo was overjoyed, a long-lost feeling of happiness. Ever since learning that All Might's next successor was Mirio Togata, Afo's expression had been grim...

According to the intelligence gathered, Mirio Togata is an exceptionally outstanding successor. With "One For All" now in his hands, even if All Might retires, a new "symbol of peace" will rise.

Afo has always wanted to get revenge on All Might, but how to carry out his revenge on that righteous idiot is a problem that is giving Afo a real headache.

Killing All Might is far from enough to quell AFO's hatred. If they want to take revenge on that "symbol of peace," the method is self-evident...

The way AFO chose was to shatter the society of professional heroes and completely destroy the order established by All Might.

He chose Shigaraki Tomura as his successor, intending to use him to exact revenge on All Might when the time was right. I imagine that guy will have a very interesting expression on his face.

However, everything changed when All Might chose Mirio Togata as the ninth "One For All"...

All Might is too outstanding, so outstanding that it troubles AFO... The successor he chose is no match for All Might.

It's unclear when it started... but AFO's goal shifted from revenge against All Might to competing with him. The fact that his chosen successor, Shigaraki Tomura, was completely inferior to Togata Mirio made AFO very uncomfortable...

Mirio Toru is like a microcosm of All Might—powerful, righteous, and passionate... He can be considered an outstanding hero.

On the other hand... Shigaraki Tomura is like a child who never grows up. All For One has been planning actions to help him mature, but it's still far from enough...

As his successor, Shigaraki Tomura was far inferior to All Might's successor, Mirio Togata, and AFO could say he held a grudge about this.

Even recently, the idea of ​​all for one suddenly came to him after seeing Izuku Midoriya's performance at the sports meet. He thought... how about finding a more outstanding successor?

But AFO soon abandoned this idea; it was too troublesome... Now, all they can do is hope for Shigaraki's growth... Sigh...

But it was at this time that the hidden agent lurking in U.A. High School brought him news. Nighteye saw a very interesting future. After learning all this, Afo made a decision about his long-standing thoughts.

"Izuku Midoriya? What a promising kid!"

"Miao, now you can do the rest of your job."

Chapter 81 Support Department Activities

After a week-long hero internship, life at U.A. High School returned to normal for its students.

This brings us to Izuku Midoriya's current situation. He belongs to both the Hero Course and the Support Course, a result of the school's unanimous discussion after he won the championship at the U.A. Sports Meet.

Following the U.A. Sports Festival, the Hero Internship ended, and Izuku Midoriya, who should have been returning to his normal school life, received a notification from Akira Hata:

"Equipment and Item Appraisal Contest?"

"Kukuku, that's right!"

In the support department's workshop, Akira sat down opposite Midoriya, raised his index finger, and said in a slightly exaggerated voice:

"Half of the semester has already passed, and the upcoming final exams won't just be a headache for the Hero Course."

"Students in the Support Department who fail their final exams will be subject to expulsion!"

"Um...that's true..."

Midoriya felt a headache coming on when he thought about it. The final exams at U.A. High School were like a sword of Damocles hanging over the necks of every student, and the Support Department was even worse off... They were practically on the gallows.

The support course is open to students on weekdays, allowing them to explore independently, but it is also extremely rigorous with final exams. Failing the final exam results in expulsion.

"Does the equipment and props appreciation competition have anything to do with the final exams?"

"Of course they're related!"

Midoriya asked with some concern, and Akira Hatsume stood up, spun around, and then stretched his arms out high above his head in a gesture of praising the sun.

"Originally, U.A. High School did not have this activity, but the strict final exam system of the Support Department led the senior students to spontaneously organize the event, which is an exchange conference held in the middle of the semester."

"The original purpose was to have other students comment on our equipment and props so that we could correct our shortcomings and improve our techniques, but for some reason it turned into an equipment competition later on."

"Because you see how outstanding other people's babies are, you don't want to be outdone and compete with them, it's something like that."
