Chapter 2

Izuku stared at it, but nothing came to mind on how to accomplish his current. "What are we going to do about this Unlimited Imprisonment seal that the hero put on you?" Izuku couldn't figure it out.

"Do something about it?"

"Of course, we're friends, and friends don't let friends stay locked up in a prison like this; besides it's been 300 years." he said. 'By all accounts, Veldora is a villain, and I shouldn't let him out, but something inside of me tells me that he's changed and won't needlessly kill for no reason.' He truly believed in his new friend.

"You..." Unintentionally, he was giving Izuku puppy dog eyes.

'Please don't look at me like that, it's really uncomfortable.' he'd rather an actual dog look at him like that.

"If you've truly found a way to free me, then I'd be most grateful." Despite his calm demeanor, Veldora was jumping for joy on the inside. There was a chance that he would finally be free. "The thing is though, I wouldn't have lasted another 100 years in this place, before my magic ran out." he stated much to Izuku's confusion.

"Taking that into consideration, I take it you've been losing more and more magicules."

"Correct, and it all goes into the cave; that explains the rich deposit of magicules, and other valuables." he was beginning to understand.

"What happens when you run out?" Veldora was silent for a few moments before sighing, he knew that Izuku wouldn't like the truth, but he couldn't lie to his new friend. The slime seemed so innocent by nature, but he had to face the facts.

"I'll die, it's that simple." he stated.

'300 years of isolation from the outside world, and then to just die alone; that's a fate that I wouldn't wish on anyone, not even All for One.' he silently stated before going to the barrier until he was close enough. 'Great Sage, can you use Predator to consume Unlimited Imprisonment?' A piece of him stretched out, ready to consume the target. Needless to say upon touching the barrier, it failed, and he sustained a little bit of damage.

'Failure.' Great Sage stated.

"I figured, and using One for All would be pointless." he stated. There had to be another way. "Great Sage is there anything else we can try?" he needed an idea for this to work; he went silent.

"Hey! Don't just keep talking to your own skill!" Izuku was deep in thought; listening to Great Sage. Veldora was much to antsy to wait, the suspense was killing him; thankfully it wasn't literal as he only had a couple years to live if they failed. After a few more minutes, Izuku turned around to Veldora. "Well?"

"Well, this is a possibility, but she says that if we can analyze Unlimited Imprisonment from the inside and out, we might be able to remove it." he said.

"Sadly my skills are sealed just like me, I can't use them."

"Don't worry, if you can give me the data, then I can analyze the data out here."

"But, that could take some time. Are you sure you want to stay in here that long?" Somehow he knew that Izuku would do so since they were friends; the teen wouldn't abandon him, that was just the kind of person Izuku was. It sounded strange, but every moment spent with the teen gave him more and more hope. Izuku had a fire inside of him.

"Good point, but since I'm here, I'd like to search for others from my world." The Slime stated. "So. here's my suggestion; get in my stomach." Veldora stared at the teen, trying to understand and comprehend what he'd just said. "I'll use my skills Great Sage and Predator to analyze Unlimited Imprisonment while you try to destroy it from the inside; you'll be quarantined in my stomach so you won't disappear." he explained. This was the best that he, and Great Sage could think of. "So, what do you think?" His bravery was starting to wear off. "I-" Veldora suddenly burst out laughing. 'Does he think the plan is stupid?' It was the best plan he could come up with.

"This plan sounds interesting, let's do it!" he exclaimed. His laughing had given Izuku the wrong impression. "I'm putting my absolute trust in you, boy!"

"You'll believe me that easily?" Veldora was putting his trust in him.

"Of course!" he said. "It sounds more fun to break through Unlimited Imprisonment together than to wait here alone until you come back."

"Better two than one, at least Veldora and I will be on the same page, and we won't try and fight each other." His mind went to when he and Bakugo fought; then his thoughts went to everyone else in Class 1-A. Everyone had seen him bleed out and die. 'Hopefully they've recovered by now, mourning me will just get in their way.' The teen didn't want them to mourn him too much, but his mother wouldn't recover from his death; maybe it would finally get his dad come home. He couldn't ignore this. "Alright, let's do this!" he had to repress such depressing thoughts for the time being. "Alright Predator, do your wor-"

"Wait a moment!" Izuku stopped. "Before we start, I'll give you a name and you will give me one."

"I already have a name, Izuku Midoriya, it's the name I was born with."

"Yes, but it will engrave onto our souls the fact that we are equal." He explained. "It'll be what humans call a 'family name', but the name I give you will grant you divine protection." Divine protection sounded nice. "You are still nameless, so you'll become a monster with a name."

"A monster with a name, that sounds nice, but there is a single requirement I need from you when you name me."

"Oh, and what would that be?"

"Losing my human last name is something that I'll be able to live with, but my human first name is what I need to keep; it's one of the only things that my father ever gave me."

"Agreed, now give me a cool name."

"Alight lets see..."he began to wrap his name around the word storm in Veldora's name. 'Storm, what's another word for storm?' his 'eyes' widened. "Tempest! What do you think of Tempest?"

"What!" his sudden yelling made the teen jump back. "What kind of name is that!?"

"You don't like it?"

"It sounds fantastic!" he exclaimed in joy. "As of today I am, Veldora Tempest!"

"You like it, that's good."

"And now I shall grant you the name, Izuku."

"Thank you."

"From now on you will be, Izuku Tempest!" It was in that moment did the inside on Izuku's body glow gold, and his body was filled with a new found power. The name, Izuku Tempest had just been born.

"Izuku Tempest, that's my new name now."

"Hmm, it fits." Veldora said. Izuku 'smiled'.

"Veldora, I'm going to eat you now, so hurry and break out of that seal; when you do you'll see the light day, I promise." The Dragon chuckled.

"I'll hold you to that." Powerful magic surrounded Izuku.

"Unique Skill: Predator!" Izuku's body expanded, surrounding and covering the entire barrier. Moments later it all began to shrink until Izuku had fully consumed it, and he was back to his normal form. "That was fast, and I was just talking with him moments ago."

'Would you like to analyze the unique skill Unlimited Imprisonment?"

"Please do." He said. "Veldora, you'll be out soon." Sadly it wasn't going to be that easy; so now he would have to find his way out of the cave. He couldn't stay inside forever; with that the slime embarked on his first quest. Finding a way out of the monster infested cave.

The Next Day - Cave

"Water Blade!" The severed head of the monster snake fell onto the ground. Izuku stared at the snake. "Great Sage, will I be able to analyze the snake, and if I can what'll happen."

"Answer, the analysis with allow you to mimic all of the state's abilities and certain properties."

"Well..." The lower half of the snake was still moving, and it was creeping him out. "Thermal vision and poison breath do sound useful; alright." His body spread out, swallowing the corpse whole. He couldn't taste anything, but still. "Well, that was an experience." He said. "I never killed anything before, a hero isn't supposed to kill, but these are animals who are attacking me; then again..." The internal argument about his morals would have to wait until he was out of the cave. The sound of more monsters up ahead made him shake nervously, it looked like he was going to have to fight again.

Several Weeks Later - Cave

Seven weeks and countless monsters. The teen had absorbed so many monsters and mimicked their abilities. He had been experimenting, and was trying to learn how to actually speak with his 'mouth'. "All Might, one for all." He missed All Might, he missed his mom. What were they doing without him? Izuku finally stopped bouncing; he'd reached the massive door that led outside. "Here it is, I go out that door and there won't be any turning back." It was finally time. "Now, how do I open this thing it's-" The door began to open much to his surprise. He quickly darted behind the nearest rock.

"It finally opened." Three humans, and coming out didn't seem like a good idea as there was no telling what might happen.

"It can't be helped, this door has been sealed for 300 years." The only female of the group stated. While they continued to talk amongst themselves. Izuku was quick to sneak out, but he would remember their faces.

Outside

Izuku was in awe as he roamed the forest, it felt good to finally feel the sun on his slimy body; granted he couldn't actually feel it. There were colorful birds it the trees that he'd never seen before, it was all new to him. The sound of footsteps and clanging metal caught his attention. 'Oh no.' A group of small humanoid creatures with strange ears, frail bodies, and green skin they wore worn out armor and rusted swords. 'Great Sage, what are they?'

'Answer, Goblins.'

'Goblins, of course they are in this world.' He looked around. There looked to be about thirty if them. The situation was awkward enough with silence; he would simply have to break the silence. "Hello, my name is Izuku Tempest, I'm a nice Slime; its nice to meet you all." To himself he sounded fine, but to the goblins it was like he was yelling and there was a power to his voice. They cowered much to his confusion.

"Please, we are very much aware of your greatness so please spare us your loud voice." the leader pleaded.

"Is this better?" he whispered.

"Much better." He stated.

"So, what's this about greatness?" Izuku asked. "Me?"

"That's right, even if you've taken the form of a slime, we sensed a strong monster aura."

"A strong monster aura, if that's the case then why haven't I sensed it yet with my magic perception?" Was there something he was missing?

"There's no need to jest like that with us." He smiled.

'Great Sage, what are they talking about?'

'Answer: there are non-monsters with more magical essence that the individual, Izuku Tempest, within a hundred miles radius.' Izuku 'sighed'. Of course they were talking about him, he wasn't used to being the most powerful person in any situation. Usually there was always someone stronger than him like a teacher/pro hero. Not to mention he was now the shortest person out of everyone in his class. 'Would you like a third person view?'

'Yes please.' It was strange seeing himself, but it was stranger seeing the dark purple aura that surrounded him. It was dark, and seemed to spread out all around him; even rising into the air. 'That's my aura?!' He silently exclaimed. ' It looks like something a powerful villain would have!' It was strong, but that didn't help how it looked; it would definitely look bad if anyone he knew were to actually sense and see it. Izuku took a deep 'breath' and managed to pull the aura back in so that it could no longer be sensed.

"That you, that aura was very terrifying." The leader stated. After so talking and getting everyone on equal footing, Izuku was requested to come to their village. Something was wrong with them.

Goblin Village

The village was run down, but he wouldn't say so out loud; something told him that it looked better in the past. Despite his objections, they served him what drink they had. Izuku didn't need to eat or drink, not to mention he didn't have any taste buds. "I'm sorry we don't have much to serve you with." The leader of the goblin forces brought in a elderly man. "I'm the village elder here, sorry to make you wait."

"It's fine, it really is." He stated. "So, you want something right?" He wanted to get right to the point, he knew that something major was wrong. The way the other goblins looked at him when he entered the village, they had looks of despair; like their hope was dying. He was all to right. The old suddenly bowed to him while the you warrior took a knee. "What are you-"

"I've heard about your hidden power and I beg you to hear our request!" The elder begged.

"Alright, just stop bowing, please." The man got up, and told their story. A month ago their dragon god vanished without warning, and said god had been keeping certain monsters away, but with their god gone; monsters who wanted to expand their territory began eyeing the village. Their current problem was the dire wolves; one hundred to be precise. Including the women the goblins only had sixty. The number and strength differences was very wide. "You know their size number precisely?"

"Yes, the Liguru was able to give us their numbers before he..."

"Liguru is my brother, he received a name from a powerful majin; he became the best of our warriors." He stated. The elder had lost a son, someone lost a husband, a brother, a best friend by the fangs and claws if the dire wolves.

"Please we just want to live, even if it's for the pride of my son." The man said; he and his son were bowing once more.

'These people, they're on the verge of being wiped out for no good reason; they can't defend themselves anymore, I can't help them...' If he had fists then he would clench them. 'But they need me since there is no one else who can, it'll mean that I will have to fight and kill, but this time it'll be something with real intelligence; something that has a goal.' He didn't want to kill for anyone. 'They'll be slaughtered if I leave, if I ignore and abandon them, they need a hero.' What would All Might do in a situation like this? ' All Might isn't here to give me advice anymore, he's an entire world away...it's just me now.' The teen knew what he had to do in order to save these people; even if it meant doing what was done to him. "Elder." The old man raised his head. "I'm going to save this village, that's what a hero does in this situation after all." The village Elder's eyes widened as did his son.

The sudden sound of a dire wolf howling caught their attention, it sounded too close for comfort. Needless to say everyone outside began panicking, and for good reason. The village Elder went outside to calm them down, but to no avail; they were too scared. Izuku summoned what courage he currently had as he went outside. "People of the Goblin Village, you don't need to be afraid anymore!" He exclaimed catching their attention. "I, Izuku Tempest will save this village in Storm Dragon Veldora's stead; no goblin shall die tonight when the wolves come. On my honor as a hero!" Calling himself a hero sounded kind of arrogant since he'd been a hero in training, but they didn't known that; it would give them hope in him at least. Thankfully they no had hope in him. All the goblins got on their knees and bowed to him.

"Please grant us your protection, starting today, we are Izuku-sama's faithful servants!" A lot of faith in him it would seem. He would try not to disappoint.
