'In an era where samurai flourished the land and protected the people, how could they suddenly become a dying people?' A question raised in a boy, no looking older than 13 asked himself as he stared outside the window of his class in a temple. His sword by his side as he continued to ignore the teacher's lesson.

"Listen, you all have to think best for your futures! I was prepaired to give you all an assignment to plan for your lives." The teacher said as he then smirked as many of his other classmates began to ether transform their arms or body parts. Some even spitting out fire or water and various other things.

"I assume you all want to become part of this new hero era correct?" The teacher said as many of the class cheered on. Save for the teen with the katana by his side as he scowled. 'Right, these so called "quirks" are why not many of us are around.' He thought in his head as he had to listen on his peers spouting crap of heroes.

"Sensei! Don't group me in with these morons. Because I'm gonna be better than All Might and get into UA!" He looked over and sighed at who decided to open their mouth. He saw a teen with spiked sandy blonde hair wearing a furred short sleeved kimono and hakama pants. Along with a silver beaded necklace around his neck and a wild grin on his face.

"Ah, that's right. Midoriya plans to attend UA too." As soon as the teacher said that, all eyes were now on the boy with the katana. Now known as Midoriya, Izuku Midoriya. The class just stared at him for a little bit, until they finally broke into laughter. Some holding their stomachs and pointed at him as he closed his eyes.

"Ha Ha Ha! M-Midoriya!? The wanna be samurai with that half ass sword!? A-A hero!? O-Oh god my sides are hurting me!"

"Like any hero agency or even any job would take someone that's quirkless this day and age!"

"He's just useless as those other dead-beat samurai in-"

The one who was just cut off, now literally hand a blade near their neck. As they suddenly found themselves pinned on the floor under Midoriya's geta's and looking down on them with a scowl on his face. "Come on, I dare you to finish what you're about to say." Izuku said as he tilted the blade closer to his neck as some of the students laughter died then and there.

"You bitches think you're better than a 'wanna-be samurai' huh? Than explain how I just manadged to have this guy's like in the palm of my hand, and how he shitted his pants out of fear." He said as some scooted away from them, more due to the fact the person under Izuku's foot now had crap his pants.

"Feh. Whatever. You can all bitch and stroke each other's tiny ego dicks all you want. I'm out of here." Izuku said as he hopped out the window as the class booed and began throwing various objects at his head. "None of you can't even aim for shit!" Izuku said as he then left the school grounds. The others still mad, but no one more that a certain sandy blonde.

"That damn useless nerd. I'm gonna kick his ass first thing tomorrow. Just you wait Deku, I'll soon show you your place in this world." The blonde said as he sat back in his seat, seathing with rage as he stared at the dirt road where Izuku walked on. 'That nerd's just a pebble for me to kick to the side! No one will surpass All Might but me, Katsuki Bakugou!'

"Man, I don't see why quirks are even for in the first place." Izuku said as he walked around the streets and stopped by a brick tunnel and sat atop of it. "Just take away these 'quirks' and they're no more human than myself or anyone else for that matter." He said as he then looked down at his reflection by the water flowing near the tunnel.

"Jeez, I really gotta learn how to keep my cool. I can't be worth called a samurai if the samurai goes around and starts beating up jackasses." Izuku said as he hopped off the top of the tunnel and stretched his limbs. "Well, better snatch me some food or something. Maybe a nearby thug has some cash." Izuku said as he then heard a rumbling noise from behind.

"The hell? Is the sewer backed up?" Suddenly, a large slime emerdged form the manhole cover and looked at Izuku. "Neat! An invisibility cloak!" "Gah! Shit! Living shit is actually a real thing?" Izuku shouted in surprise as he unshelthed his sword as the shit creature was heading towards him. "I'll just be taking your body for a few seconds kid! Don't struggle and this won't hur-ghah!"

The slime creature howled in pain as part of it's body now splatted on the floor as Izuku flicked off his slime from his blade. "Like hell I'm gonna be covered in shit!" He yelled as the slime glared and reattatched itself and wrapped around Izuku's arm. "Well just for that, I'm gonna fucking kill you!" He said as he began to strangle Izuku's neck as he tried to break free.

'Fuck! This mass of diarrhea won't be the death of me!' He thought as he looked into slime's sqinted eyes slowly widening in excitement. 'That's it, just open those things you call eyes and It'll all be over.' He thought as he turned the blade in reverse and raised it slowly as to not let him notice.

'Say goodby-' Before Izuku could even strike, he was suddenly blasted back a few feet and crashed into the wall. His last thoughts held both wonder and rage: 'What the fuck!' Soon he had became unconscious. Time seemed to go by so little, but felt like it had been hours. Izuku soon felt his face going numb as he heard multiple smacking noises.

"Hey kid, wake up. You alright there?" He heard a man call out to him as he smacked the strandger's hand away from his face and got up. "Jeez, slapping a guy is a neat way to check if they're alright or not." He said sarcastically as his eyes widened at who helped him up.

He was tall and buff, wearing short sleeved white kimono with a metal belt around his waist and dark green cargo pants and black sneakers. The most notable thing about this man, was his golden blonde hair that seemed to have two bangs stick up in a "V' formation on his head, and his big white smile ever shining along.

"All Might!?" Izuku said as he almost dropped his sword to the ground but held on the handle as All Might laughed."Sorry about that kid. But thanks for helping me catch this villain that got away." All Might said as he held out two bottles that the villain seemed to be incased in. "Well I thank you once again, be sure to see me on tv soon!" With that, All Might jumped off the ground and into the air.

'Odd, I don't remember this villain being so heav-' "What the hell kid!?" All Might shouted as he saw Izuku holding his sword in his mouth as he clutched onto his pants. "Hold on theirs something I gotta ask you!" Izuku said through gritted teeth on his sword as All Might was baffled at what this kid was doing.

'Shit! I don't have much time left. Gotta land...there!' He thought as he crashed onto a building rooftop with Izuku rolling over the roof and hitting the vent unit of the building."I don't have time kid. I'm always busy, make sure you think before doing anything reckless." All Might said as he turned his back to him and readied to take off again.

"Do you think it's possible for samurai to be heroes of this era?" Izuku said as All Might froze midway in his take off. "Before all these quirks came in, this era, The Edo Era, had it's own heroes of the people. Samurai. They fought to protect the weak, stopped crimes and syndicates." Izuku began as he then walked a bit closer to All Might.

"But now, samurai are nothing but a joke to most of the country and it's people. Sure their are some units of samurai, but the people don't acknowledge then as heroes like you guys with quirks." Izuku said as he held his katana over his shoulder and stared at his back.

"So I ask, can a samurai, a person without a quirk, ever become one the people call a hero?" Izuku said as he then saw a plume of smoke and there where All Might once stood, now stand a blonde skinny man with his kimono a bit large for him and his hair looking like it was cut with a lawnmower.

"Who the hell are you!? And where's All Might!" Izuku said as he took out the blade form his shelth and pointed at the blonde skinny man. "I am All Might." The blonde said as blook leaked out of his mouth. "Bullshit!" Izuku yelled as his eyes glared at the man now sitting down on the floor, pulling up his shirt to reveal a spiderweb like wound.

"Few years ago, I got this injury in a fight with a villain. It cost me my entire stomach, and damaging my internal organs." All Might said as he put his shirt down and looked at Izuku once again. "I asked the media not to reveal this, because if the symbol of peace were to become weak, than society would run rampant."

"Sure the samurai still around can help with the villains that would up rise. Even the government samurai like the Shinsengumi. But, they are just citizens without quirks, and would eventually cripple the government if they died." All Might said as Izuku's eyes widened at what he just said to him.

All Might then got up and walked over to the roof door. "I'm not saying that samurai can't be heroes, but they're better off doing police work and detaining criminals. It's not wrong to dream kid, but you need to see what reality is in this era." Silence soon fell upon the rooftop of the building, as All Might had left Izuku there, with his words echoed in his head.

Minutes soon passed, as Izuku wrapped his sheath onto his back and rested the katana on his shoulder. As soon as he walked out of the building, he grew pissed. "Damn it! What the hell was that jackass saying that crap about!" Izuku said underneath his breath as he wandered the streets blindly.

"Samurai are weak? Is that what he believes in now!? Are we just warriors needing to be protected now!" Izuku said as he hit his head against a pole in front of him and looked up in rage, soon hearing a crowd of people and turned to his right. Seeing an entire small shopping district in flames.

"What's happening?"

"That slime villain escaped from All Might took over a kid and is using their quirk to cause chaos."

"Eh, don't worry, I'm sure those heroes will take care of it in no time."

"But that kid looks to be in trouble, why wont the heroes move?"

Izuku peeked over the masses of heads in the crowd and saw what was going on. The heroes couldn't grab the slime from before. And was shocked that it was Katsuki Bakugo, the biggest asshole in his life on the verge of tears and looked at them. His eyes, were calling for help. "Damn it this is pissing me off more now!" Izuk yelled as he pushed aside the crowd and ran into the scene.

"Get out of there kid!" "Idiot! What the hell do you think you're doing!?" The heroes called out to him, but he ignored their cries and dragged his sword against the ground. "Hm!? It's you again brat! You think you can still cut me with a hostage with a strong quirk!?" The villain said as he controlled Bakugou's body to send explosions in his way.

"You think because I weild a blade I'm weak?" Izuku said in a calm voice as he did an upward slash to the explosions, soon cutting them to nothingness as the crowd and heroes eyes widened. "You believe that samurai are weak!?" Izuku said as he then jumped in front of the villains eyes, only to suddenly vanish.

"H-Huh!? Where did-" The villain soon froze, as he felt a cold wind from behind and saw his blade already swinging. "Then I'll show you, what a samurai can really do!" Izuku said as he slashed at the back of the villain, causing him to momentarily to split in two. "Now you!" Izuku said as he grabbed Bakugou by the collar. "Get your ass on the sidelines!" Izuku yelled as he threw him at the heroes and began another series of slashes to the villain.

"You brat! I won't let you live after all this annoying shit!" The villain said as he reassembled himself and enlargened his body to attempt to surround Izuku. "Enjoy death you shitty brat!" Izuku then adjusted the blade to be pointing at the sky. The villain ever growing closer, and the crowd yelling him to run. But they were all silent, as he struck his blade down.

"Fallen Leaves!" Izuku yelled as what could only be dicribed as a mass of wind blew in a torrent around the shopping district. The sky, once clouded and rain, now began to split in two. As the suns rays fell upon Izuku and the villain began bleeding out from his eyes and mouth. "Y-You shit!" The villain struggled to move, but was frozen in pain as his body ached in each small movement.

Izuku put back his sword in it's sheath as he walked pass the slime villain and put his hands in his pockets. "This fight was decided, when you were facing the Samurai from Kabuki-cho." Izuku said as the villain's eyes widened at the title he said. "Y-Your the-" "That's right. Now just die already." Izuku said as the villain screamed and turned to fight again, but now layed as a puddle of slime and blood.

[Break]

"Hnngh! Man, I guess I'll head back and call it a day." Izuku said as he walked down the road as the sun was beginning to set upon the day. "Hey Deku!" A voice called out to him, as he knew the only person that calls him that instead of his name. He looked around at Bakugou who was glaring at him. "I never asked you to save me you fuck! I'm gonna be the next top hero, not some useless samurai wanna-be!"

With that said and done, Bakugou just continued to walk away to his home as Izuku had an annoyed look on his face. "When will he stop sucking on his ego's dick already?" Izuku said as not even another step forward, he saw All Might in front of him. "What the hell!? How'd you find me so fast!?" Izuku asked as he almost drew his sword out.

All Might, now reverted back to his skinny form, wipped off the falling blood and looked at Izuku. "I was there when you fought against that villain. You, a young aspiring samurai with no quirk, first ran into the scene in order to help that kid. You have the true aspects to become a hero young man." All Might said as Izuku's eyes leered as he continued.

"So I believe, you're worthy to become my succe-" All Mights words were cut off as he found Izuku's katana pointed at his neck. "So you were there and didn't do a damn thing? And you now have the balls to tell me that I can become a hero even when you just said, not to long ago, to see reality for what it is!?" Izuku yelled as All Might was surprised at his actions.

"And the fact you want me to train under you like some sort of sidekick or student. Take that offer and shove it up your bleeding ass." Izuku said as he lowered his sword and turned away from All Might. "But with my help you can become a hero. You can even get strong enough for the UA exams!" All Might said as he tried to bargin with Izuku.

"And lose all aspects of my Bushido? I rather commit seppuku than be trained underneath a hypocrite!" Izuku said as he saw the confused look on his face and groaned. "God, you don't even know what Bushido means do you. This era now I swear. It means one's way or code of the samurai. And my way of the samurai, is to be free and aid those in need."

Izuku said as he continued to walk away from All Might. Making his way to the outskirts of Musutafu and climbed up a large series of stairs. Once atop, he opened what looked to be an abandoned shrine. "I'm home." He said, but no one else was there. It was only him, and the god of the shrine. He preformed a small prayer, and then layed down on the porch of the temple, basking in the sunset as it setted on the clouds for the day.
