Greetings readers. Welcome to MHA: Vigilant Plume, in this story Izuku comes into the possession of the Moku-Moku no mi and is a vigilante. As with MHA: Blood and Rage the ship for this story is as of yet undecided. So let me know in the comments my dudes who you want our green haired smoke boi to have as a love interest. Without further ado let's get into it.

Izuku always had a strong sense of justice. It was always his dream to be a hero. Even if for some reason he couldn't he knew he would become a police officer instead. He was that dedicated to being a good guy. That was until he learned that sometimes justice didn't come at the hands of heroes or the police. One day he learned that sometimes you have to take justice into your own hands.

You see when Izuku was four he learned he was quirkless. His old friend Katsuki Bakugo used his powerful explosion quirk to bully Izuku for this very reason. As a result he spent a lot of time with his mother, who was the most precious person anyone could have as a mother. He eventually got involved with his mother's hobbie of gardening. She couldn't have a big garden since they lived in an apartment complex, but it was the act of gardening itself that the two green haired cinnamon rolls enjoyed. One day a weird white colored fruit with swirls on it appeared on one of Inko's plants. Izuku saw it and thought it looked tasty so he plucked the fruit, washed it, and took a bite. Unfortunately for Izuku the fruit did not in fact taste good and it was horribly bitter. He kept in the refrigerator so he could tell his mom not to eat that particular fruit. Once she got home Inko scolded Izuku for eating an unknown fruit, but also thanked him for thinking of her.

Over the years Izuku came to resent heroes since Katsuki would always get praised for having amazing hero potential despite the fact that he was a bully. Instead he grew to admire the police. That is until the day Izuku's whole word view was trashed. There was a villain attack near his apartment complex. It was two random giant villains having a fight over something most likely inconsequential. No one really knows who, but one of the two giants stepped on Izuku's apartment complex. His mother was half trapped under the building and Izuku tried and tried to get her free despite being told by his mother to save himself. He cried out for someone, anyone to help, but no hero came to help and no policeman heeded his cries. He was alone and his mom was dying. As he punched the ground in frustration his hand turned into smoke. He gasped in surprise and tried to replicate the process with his entire body. He used his smoke body to get under the rubble despite his mother's protests and expanded while unconciously increasing the smoke's density. This act allowed a man with a black mask covering the top half of his face to move his mother from underneath the rubble.

"Oh my god sir thank you so much for saving my mother! Are you a new hero? I've never seen you before. Thank you once again sir." Izuku said as he devolved into a series of mumbles.

"Thanks are unneccessary kid after all I just dragged her. It was you who saved her. As for your other question my name is Knuckleduster! I'm the hero who saves those that normal heroes won't."

Izuku being the smart nine year old that he was pieced together that this man was a vigilante, but to be honest he didn't really care. This man saved his mom when the heroes did nothing. He was broken out of his thoughts by his mother's words.

"Mr. Knuckleduster. I can tell that my time is running short after all it's taking all my effort just to speak. I beg of you please take care of my baby boy. He's all that's ever mattered to me."

"Mom don't say that you'll be fine. Please mom, PLEASE!" the boy said with tears streaming down his eyes.

"I promise ma'am. I'll do my best to raise your boy into the finest man that's ever walked the earth."

"Thank you so much." the woman whispered out before finally passing away. Knuckleduster let the boy cry and mourn before taking the boy to his home to rest. The next day Knuckleduster adopted Izuku under his civilian alias Takeshi Kuroiwa.

When Izuku wasn't in school he was training his new power and his combat skills with the older vigilante. Over time Izuku cut his hair shorter and slicked it back (A/N think of Smoker's post timeskip hair except green) and wore a white jacket with dark green fur collar. He usually wore it open with a tight black shirt underneath and black pants with dark green combat boots. This was what he wore as his vigilante costume. He didn't really wear a mask since he could use his smoke to hide his identity. Also using some of Knuckleduster's more unsavory connections he came into the possession of a nigh indestructible jitte which was his weapon of choice as a vigilante.

He worked with his adopted father for a couple years before deciding to strike out on his own to follow his own meaning of justice. Knuckleduster understood and let him know that he'd always be there for his son and student. So at age 13 Izuku set of on his own as the solo vigilante Smoker. His targets were mostly the likes of bank robbers, petty thieves, murderers, and kidnappers whereas his father figure mostly hunted down drug dealers and drug users. He made a name for himself and was the enemy of villains and a capture target for heroes.

One fateful day a year into his vigilante career he saw his bully Katsuki Bakugo being assaulted by a sludge-like villain. He saw several heroes all fumbling around not knowing what to do. It was quite irritating to say the least.

"Honestly if you guys are gonna call yourselves heroes at least act like it." the boy mumbled before surging forward in a burst of smoke. Little did he know a certain emaciated hero not only heard him, but recognized him as well. He assaulted the sludge villain with his White Spark technique and changed the density on contact. This loosened the sludge enough for Izuku to solidify one of his hands and throw Katsuki out of harms way. He then surrounded the villain and pummeled him with his fists coated in a weird hardening ability he discovered on accident. Through several hours of research he learned that the hardening and his vastly improved sixth sense were sub types of a power called haki. Once he was done he left in a cloud of smoke and began walking home.

As our protagonist was walking home All Might jumped in front of him. If it were six years ago he would have been freaking out. Now he wasn't too impressed.

"Can I help you All Might?" Izuku deadpanned.

"Don't play coy Smoker, the White Hunter. I saw what you did to the sludge villain and I must say I am impressed. So why do you choose to break the law and be a vigilante instead of becoming a hero?"

"Because, All Might the Symbol of Peace, sometimes being a hero isn't good enough. Some times the only way to save someone is to bend or break the rules."

"My boy I can't say I understand what you've been through nor will I pretend to do so. Instead I would like to offer you the opportunity to turn your life around. I am offering you my recommendation to join UA. I won't ask you to make your decision now. Instead if you wish to be a hero meet me at Dagobah beach in three days time. Before I leave what is your name young man?"

"Izuku Midoriya. I'll think about your offer, but I ain't promising anything."

"A fine name my boy, good bye young Midoriya. Remember Dagobah beach in three days time."

And with that the number one hero left. Izuku didn't know what he was really going to do. He didn't want to stop his work, but at the same time being a hero used to be his dream. He'd need to think about this.

Bang chapter one of Vigilant Plume is out. Unlike my other stort Blood and Rage I have two things to ask of you readers. First who shall be Smoke boi's love interest. Second should he attend UA and become a hero. Should he attend UA and remain a vigilante. Or should he remain a vigilante and refuse to go to UA. You guys decide. I initially intended for this to be a vigilante story, but if you guys want our very own White Hunter to be a hero i'm not opposed to it. So let me know what you guys want. That's all my dudes and remember Hentai is the one true god.
