Hey guys, its been almost a year now. Stuff happens, i forgot about this if im going to be real, but im back now. I promise some inconsistent uploads in the future, i promise ;) Love all y'all. Put suggestions in the reviews. 3

All of Izuku's body, mind, and soul were being tested. The infinite buzz in his ears was no more than usually, but with the pounding of blood in his skull, the sound was giving his tolerance a run for its money. But the excruciating pain in the entirety of his right side was what was truly testing him. Most of his ribs were fractured, his right leg was bruised, but the same arm was utterly shattered. The amount of raw power that he just let loose in a screaming punch towards the ocean was too much for his frail mortal body.

The newly pristine, clean Dagobah beach was the only witness to this feat of strength, excluding Yagi Toshinori of course. It witnessed his first smash, his first use of his power, his first use of One for All

Four Months Till Exam Day

KID, THAT WAS AMAZING

You're really something there man

Holy shit our body

Izuku…

Yagi Toshinori, known as All Might in this muscular form, clapped and whistled.

"YOUNG MIDORIYA, THAT WAS AN ASTOUNDING FIRST SMAS - OUCH" The miniature human being of Recovery Girl, the one who bonked him on the head, was quite annoyed with his clapping of the mutilation of a young boy's body.

"Toshinor, your hootin' and hollering aren't helping him." The static in Izuku's brain was pure static at the moment, adrenaline being the only thing stopping him from crying, but in his daze he made out the figure of this lady who he'd only met an hour before come up to him and give him a kiss on the bicep. Instantly, his aching was relieved, but immediately replaced by an intense sense of drowsiness.

In his last moments of consciousness, he noted it felt similar to morphine, a thing he was well acquainted with in the psych wards.

All Might caught his falling, limp body as soon as he dropped, silently noting how he was quite a bit heavier than a few months ago, easily thirty pounds more.

"AH, SORRY ABOU- splahrrg" Reverting to his skinny form, Yagi sputtered out a bit of blood before wiping it away with his hands. "Sorry about that Chiyo, but you'll never understand my pride at seeing my successor's first smash, my prodigy." His eyes were burning blue with pride and hope for the future, the presence of Yagi alone, even while in this skinny mode, was intense with satisfaction of Izuku's progress.

"Prodigy? I don't really see it. Sure, he's plenty good as your successor, but prodigy might be pushing it." The smaller of the two huffed while looking at her sleeping patient, carefully leaning on Toshinori.

"I do. Not only does he unnaturally suck in lessens, he's a natural fighter and his will power has driven him to where he is now, a hero-in-training, talented athlete, and genius. He is the perfect future Symbol of Peace. Now that he has a taste of power, I can feel he'll stop at nothing to learn to use it to put some weight in his corner." Yagi was a goofball, but his voice was sage like and his eyes were far off, somewhere far away, sometime long ago.

They stood like this for a few minutes, Chiyo silently rolling over her friend's words. Soon enough however, the sun set on that day, and Yagi drove Izuku home to his mother, Recovery Girl went back to her apartment near U.A. They both now knew of what was to come four months time.

Two Months Left

A ripple of energy ripped out from between the extended fists of All Might and his student, being equal for only a nanosecond before the smaller of the two hands were crushed under the force of its elder.

"YOUNG MIDORIYA, ARE YOU WELL? I HEARD THAT LAST CRACK!" All Might's buff form's voice was both loud and deep, something Izuku had to become adjusted to to be able to tolerate their daily matches. If Izuku had been grinding out his workouts before, now he was slaving away to becoming stronger. All Might was equally committed to his slavery, and was rigorously pushing him to the limits everyday. Training in both combat, and his Quirk.

"I'm fine Yagi, lets keep this up, my heart's still pumping hard!" With a bit of a forced smile, he jumped straight at his childhood (and teenage) idol. One for All was growing inside him at an unnatural speed, but Izuku still couldn't grasp all of it. He figured out he could use the power in three ways, (with the help of ever loving ever helpful Nana), He could use it all in one arm-shattering punch, he could use a little and spread it around to make him superhuman, or he could use it as a sort of infinite power source on his natural abilities so that he won't get tired in the middle of a fight.

Izuku's favorite was the spread of One for All throughout his body, the one Nana taught him, but there was one little problem.

Izuku charged up and spread it around his body, a full lightbulb of his Quirk, before throwing himself at All Might with a rudimentary amount of grace.

He couldn't focus with all the voices in his head.

COME ON IZUKU!

Oh boy, another poor start, you really need more practice.

YOU GOT THIS.

A waste of time.

His power was lopsided, unstable.

Just by blocking the hit, without Izuku's power being stable on both ends, All Might was able to push him away with almost zero struggle, sending him stumbling onto the floor.

Ooh, a knockout.

Shush, he's still in.

His hand is broken and he's too distracted to fight at 100%.

Shush.

Izuku, from his sitting position, flopped onto his back with a groan, cradling his arms. The static in his ears was just irritating him today, all he wanted to do was fight.

"YOUNG MIDORIYA, - you must learn to get your power leveled out. While your initial push off was fine, but the second I showed you any resistance, you crumpled. My fear is that as an intellectual, you rely too much on pure focus and analyzing your moves, when you should be able to just do them. Work on memorizing the feeling of power, not on maintaining what you can gather. Now think on that while you do fifty push ups-" He paused and looked at Izuku's outstretched purple, oddly shaped hand. "-Fifty one handed pushups."

"Goddamnit"

He got you good bro.

He isn't even gonna let you see Recovery Girl first

I DONT THINK THATS ENOUGH PUSHUPS

Shut the hell up Kei.

After Izuku's hand was healed and his pushups were done, he left for the day, pondering what All Might said. His muttering was only barely audible on the train ride home, yet its constant presence unnerved quite a few of his neighbors, particularly a tall boy with dark blue hair.

"You! With the green curls, quite your chattering, it's distracting. I'm trying to put in some study time for Somei!" Izuku's head quirked up, a blush on his face. He had distracted himself with a new rowdy tennant, but now hearing a voice, especially a boy of his age, he felt severely embarrassed.

"Oops, sorry, erm?"

"Iida, Iida Tenya, of Somei Academy, soon to be of U.A." Izuku's eyes widened.

Ooooh, a rival?

He's going too?

Is everyone going nowadays?

Their quality must be dropping.

"Somei?" Izuku winced at his own slightly edged tone. Somei kids were known to be uptight brats, and even though this Iida seemed fine, it still put him on instant edge. Iida's expression didn't change at his change in tone at all, but his eyes had a glint in them that wasn't there before.

"Somei is a national treasure of an academy! It has been a highly functioning boarding school for the most powerful families in Japan for over a century!" His voice level was a bit too loud, and people were starting to stare, so Izuku knew he should just stop it as it was. Luckily, this was his stop.

"Welp, erm, this is my stop Iida, so I gotta go. See you at the entrance exams!" Tenya's eyes widened and looked like he was about to reply to him before Izuku sprinted off into the sea of people at the stop.

Damn Izu, you're really going to just leave him like that?

You heard that guy, he was loud, too loud in my opinion.

Stop your chit chat. We need to figure out how to force Izuku to be able to use his power better.

Nana you're always so focused on his progress, why don't you relax.

No, I need the help Nana, please help me.

Alright Izuku, let me tell you something about One for All…

One Month Left

KTHUMP

SKRRIP

"Young Midoriya, it's lunch time. Common, progress later, bologna sandwiches now." Yagi had pulled an all nighter last night(or in his case, and ALL NIGHTER), he stood by and monitored Izuku's control training, something he developed weeks ago so that his successor didn't rip himself apart while he tried using his power. Izuku all but was hopeless on it for the first few days, but something changed on the fifth day.

"Alright Yagi, but how was that just now?" Izuku was almost bouncing, it was a rare moment of him being proud of himself, and satisfied enough to take a break willingly. Yagi's deep blue eyes swept over the small forest enclosure they were in today, and aside from the two ripped apart trees and the rubble that was once a boulder, it was a beautiful field. A good day for a picnic, but a better day for training.

Izuku's brain was buzzing as it always way, its sea of knowledge and personalities was vaster and vaster everyday, it grew linearly with his strength. While it sometimes caused him problems, especially since the constant noise shot his initial ability to control OFA down the toilet at first, All Might still wasn't able to tell. Today though, it buzzed with excitement.

DAMN, THAT WAS PRETTY SLICK

Your hand-eye coordination has definitely improved, kiddo

That is nothing compared to his control! Still a little shaky, but it doesn't have that gaping flaw anymore.

Yeah but level of control is only for this amount of strength. Everytime he pushes himself he's going to relearn this every time.

Izuku pouted hearing that, but he knew it was true. Still though, right now, he was content to eat his bologna sandwich.

"Young Midoriya, please thank your mother for these delicious treats, it was quite kind of her to take time our of her day to make these for us." Izuku's mom was fully aware of his and Yagi's "relationship" but she wasn't quite fully informed on the basis of that relationship. Regardless, even if she thought it was a bit weird that his only functioning friend she had met was an unquestionably older man, especially a severely ill one, she was glad he was socially interacting. She had even heard mentions of a certain blue haired boy from her child's constant muttering.

Through munching on his mom's sandwich, Izuku mumbled out something about math and OFA, which Yagi didn't hear.

"What was that Young Midoriya?" Izuku swallows, looking sheepish.

"I'm only able to functionally use 4% of all of OFA throughout my body.. I'm not sure it'll be good enough for UA." Izuku's happy mood was once again smothered out by his own self doubt, something Yagi had been trying to fix about the boy.

"Midoriya, you do realize that "4%" is only an estimation. If anything, it's a minimum. There is a good chance that your 4% is my 9%." Yagi wasn't very good at math, but he had thought this through.

"Each hold of One for All added proportionally to the total power of the quirk. The more they used the quirk, the bigger the pool for the next generation. Why don't you think you've never heard of.. Nana Shimura.. My predecessor? She had the same quirk as me, but she was nowhere near as strong, otherwise she… nevermind that. The quirk grows. I used the quirk more than any other in this history, so logistically, your maximum potential should be multiple times mine own." Yagi wasn't used to talking this much he thought. Another thought he had was how dumbfounded Izuku looked at this revelation.

"Kid, your hobby is to do hero analysis, right? Well just do the math. You've seen me at my strongest, there are recordings of it everywhere. Do the math, you'll see what we've been calling "4%" really isn't that accurate when talking about my power. You're too strong for that. Remember that."

Dead silence filled the field, and as a breeze blew past, Yagi thought he noticed Izuku's eyes looking like they were… vibrating? But just his pupils, not his whole eyes. Yagi couldn't really tell though, since it was over in an instant.

He… isn't wrong.

BRO, WE'RE GOING TO BE STRONGER THAN ALL MIGHT!

It'll take years though. Only through training can we really hope to compare

"Oh." Izuku struggled to comment, tears were streaming down his face, and it was a really good sandwich.

"Thank you, I'll do my best."

"Ah yes, well hurry up with that sandwich. You need to hurry up so you can healthily digest it before you do that eight minute plank and five mile run." All Might, ever the physical trainer. Tears streaming down his face still, started munching even faster. Turned away however, he did not notice the twitch of All Might eyes, because he just got a massive headache while looking into his successor's eyes.

IDK i thought this was a cool story and i haven't written anything in a while and felt like it. How do you guys like it being back? Like it better than it was before or nah? owo
