Chapter 35: The Symbol of Peace

Author's Note: This is a much shorter chapter than I'd like, but to be fair, it only does take into account half of the All Might vs All for One fight. I know I said I wanted to make it all one chapter, but I think it flows best as two different chapters.

I don't really have much to say here, but I just wanted to thank you all for reading! If you have any suggestions, please let me know! I have most of the next few seasons planned out, but if you have any suggestions, I may take them into account. I'm sure many of your ideas are great.

That's all for now. Enjoy!

Just when the Heroes thought they had won, a new enemy entered the battlefield. All of the Villains began glowing with a pink light before being teleported away right in front of All Might. "Damn you! Take me with you, Shigaraki!" He tried grabbing onto the man before he was teleported, but he was too late.

"O-Oh God! I'm sorry, everyone!" Kamui began panicking It was his and Trevenant's job to keep them restrained here, yet they somehow managed to escape. "It's not your fault!" Edgeshot said, dodging an attack from one of the Nomu and having Venomoth use Venoshock.

"Where the hell did these things come from?!" Endeavor asked as Charizard let out a powerful Fire Blast, scorching several of the Nomu. "I've lost contact with Jeanist's team!" Tsukauchi shouted. "The factory siege must've failed!"

"Endeavor!" All Might called out. "Are you alright?"

"Why are you asking questions like that?!" Endeavor replied. "If you're gonna go, just got!" All Might smiled and nodded before sending out Braviary. "Right. I'll leave things here to you!"

Back at the Nomu Hangar, things weren't looking good, but at the very least, everyone was still alive. The one in the worst condition seemed to be Best Jeanist and Accelgor themselves. All for One began clapping as he slowly walked over to them.

"My, my. I'm impressed. Just as expected of the number four Hero, Best Jeanist. I thought my attack killed everyone, but Accelgor managed to throw everyone back in just that one instant. That's some very impressive speed."

The trainer and his Pokemon watched in fear as the man approached them. This man… just who was he?! Was this the man who the police were talking about? The brains behind the League… someone whose power rivaled even All Might's himself? But… he shouldn't be here…

"I… don't care who you are…" Jeanist said. "A Hero doesn't stop for anything!" He yelled. Accelgor slowly got up and got ready to attack, but before they could even do anything, Mewtwo used another Psystrike on them, this time, creating a huge hole in Jeanist's stomach, blood spewing out. The same attack then hit Accelgor, completely knocking the two of them out.

"Hm, interesting. This is the strength that comes from practice and experience." He adjusted the mask on his face and frowned. "I don't need this Pokemon. It doesn't suit Tomura's goals."

From behind what was left of the wall, the students were paralyzed in fear. They knew they had to run, but… they couldn't move. Their bodies wouldn't let them run. This man… his presence made them feel death.

"Ah! Shit!" They all heard another voice… it was Katsuki! "What the hell?!"

"Sorry, Bakugo." All for One said. Katsuki and Typhlosion looked behind them and saw the rest of the Villains teleport in. None of them, save for Tomura, was really aware of what was happening. As far as they knew, there was no way they could've gotten out of Trevenant's Ingrain bindings.

"Master…" Tomura said. All for One walked over to him and frowned. "You failed again, Tomura." He said. "But do not be discouraged. Simply try again. I brought your associates and his boy here because you judged them to be valuable to your cause." He continued.

He held out his hand and offered Tomura help to get back up. "Keep trying as long as you need to. That's why I'm here. It is all for you."

Izuku trembled in fear, but he knew why he was here. He remembered their mission. His body wouldn't move to save him before, but now he had the chance! Katsuki was right there! Why couldn't he move! He had to save him!

Katsuki was only about six to seven meters away. If he sent out a Pokemon, he could get to them in less than a second. The problem is, where would he go after. He needed a plan.

The boy turned, but before he could even do anything, Tenya grabbed onto his shirt and stopped him. He also grabbed onto Shoto, knowing that he too would go. Momo followed suit and stopped Eijiro as he reached into his pocket to grab a Pokeball. They came here to protect them, and they knew that these boys were going to do something that could get them killed.

"Ah, so you're here." All for One said. All of them could feel their hearts sink. It was over for them… or so they thought. He wasn't talking to the students…

From the sky, a figure emerged. All Might and Lucario were riding atop Braviary and were ready to attack! Lucario jumped off the Pokemon and went in for a Close Combat, but Mewtwo stepped in and created a psychic barrier that intercepted the attack.

"I'll have you return everything, All for One!" All Might yelled.

"Will you kill me again, All Might?!" He yelled back.

The attack was so powerful that it created a huge shockwave that pushed Katsuki, Typhlosion, and all of the Villains back.

"A-All Might's here…" Izuku whispered.

"Took you long enough." All for One said as the smoke cleared. "The bar isn't too far from here. You're getting old, All Might."

"And you? What's with that mask." All Might asked. "You're pushing yourself too far."

Katsuki watched in horror as the two men stood in front of each other. This man's Pokemon was able to completely block Lucario's attack! "Braviary, go around and rescue the civilians. Lucario and I will take care of things for now." The bird Pokemon nodded and flew off.

"I won't make the same mistake I made six years ago." All Might clenched his fist and he and Lucario got ready. "I will take Young Bakugo back, and I will make sure you're locked up for good!" Lucario roared in agreement. This was going to be their final battle.

"Close Combat!" Lucario jumped forward and was ready to strike, but a single Psystrike from Mewtwo was enough to push the Pokemon back. "That seems like a lot of trouble for both of us." Lucario was thrown into All Might and the two slammed into another building.

"You've gotten stronger since you last came out, Mewtwo. Perhaps I'll try adding some more Special Attack enhancers next time." One for All said. Mewtwo didn't reply, just standing there and waiting for his next command.

Once the smoke had cleared, Katsuki got back up and was astounded at the power of this Pokemon. "A-All Might!"

"Ah, no need to worry, Bakugo. He won't die to something like that." All for One said. "Now, take the boy with you and leave, Tomura." He snapped his fingers and Mewtwo walked up to Kurogiri's knocked out Alakazam. He picked him up and began glowing with pink energy.

"H-Hey, Alakazam was knocked out already! I don't know what's going on, but shouldn't you be the one to warp us outta here?" Magne said.

"Mewtwo's Teleport is still fairly experimental, Magne. It doesn't function like the Teleport you're thinking of and Mewtwo's already worn out because of it. That's why I'm having Kurogiri and Alakazam do it."

Suddenly, Alakazam woke back up, but something was off. His eyes were glowing bright pink and it seemed completely emotionless. "Now, get to Alakazam and go! He won't respond to your commands, so when you're ready, simply lay your arms on him and he'll teleport you away."

"But… what about you, Master?" Tomura asked. Before the Villain could respond though, All Might and Lucario emerged from the smoke and got ready to attack once more.

Using Psychic, Mewtwo lifted itself and All for One into the air. "Don't stop thinking, Tomura. You've still got plenty of room to grow!"

"I won't let you get away! Meteor Mash!" Lucario went in for the hit, but Mewtwo blocked the attack one more, this time with his own bare arms.

"Let's get out of here, Shigaraki!" Compress said. "While he's holding All Might back, let's get Bakugo and go!"

The Villains were surrounding Katsuki. Dabi and Kurogiri were out so they couldn't fight, but the rest of them could easily overpower him. Tomura sent out his Cofagrigus and the others sent out their own Pokemon as they got ready for battle.

All Might and Lucario tried to help him, but All for One was keeping him busy. Right now, it was Katsuki alone versus the rest of the League. Izuku could only watch in fear while Katsuki and his Typhlosion evaded attack after attack.

Probopass' Flash Canons nearly got the better of them, and it didn't help that Kangaskhan struck surprisingly fast with Dizzy Punch. Even when they had thought they had gotten away, Krokorok emerged from the ground with Dig, giving Zoroark an opening to use Night Slash.

After a Flamethrower from Typhlosion collided with Beheeyem's Psybeam, Katsuki found himself cornered. The Villains were in crisis mode. Unlike before they were going to take him, even if they had to do it by force. He couldn't let them get close…

"I'm comi-" All Might tried desperately to help the boy and save him, but All for One and his Mewtwo simply kept getting in the way, but a Thunderbolt struck Lucario, stopping him in his tracks. "I won't allow it! That's why I am here!"

After using one more Psycho Cut, Mewtwo picked up Lucario and All Might and threw them into another building.

All Might and Katsuki were in deep trouble… they all knew that… but… they weren't allowed to fight. Even if they wanted to, the law didn't allow it. Plus, fighting would put all of them in danger, making it even harder for All Might and the Heroes…

Izuku watched anxiously as he searched for an opening. There had to be one, somewhere. Something they could do to get Katsuki out of there! If they could do that, then All Might could fight without holding back…

He needed to think… think of something. Something they could do to get him out of there… a route or something…

Then, it hit him. The way All Might had gotten in was their way out! "Everyone!" Izuku whispered. "I have a plan!"

"No, you can't, Midoriya!" Tenya replied.

"No, there's a way! I know it! A way where we can save Kacchan and get out of here without fighting."

The others looked at him in shock. "Tell us."

"The plan relies on Kacchan too. It won't work if I do it… but maybe it'll work if you're the one, Kirishima. You are his best friend after all."

To begin, they sent out a few of their Pokemon. Skarmory, Druddigon, Riolu, Combusken, Aegislash, Froslass, and Ninetales all came out to help with the plan.

Druddigon picked up Eijiro and placed him on his back while he also picked up the other students in his arms. Once they were settled, Aegislash moved in front of the Dragon to act as a shield while Skarmory sat on top of him, right behind Eijiro.

Riolu and Combusken moved to Druddigon's sides and acted as boosters, pushing against the wall and, with the help of Aegislash's shield, break through the wall.

The moment they did that, Froslass and Ninetales created a huge glacier of ice to act as a ramp. Once their job was done, Shoto returned them to their Pokeballs quick enough before they were out of range.

The huge glacier, of course, got the attention of the League and All for One, but they didn't have enough time to react to it before the students set their plan in motion. Riolu and Combusken both stood at opposite sides of Druddigon and acted as boosters, kicking against the wall and pushing them all forward at high speeds up the ramp.

The height they gained from the ramp allowed them to reach a position even the Villains couldn't reach. The only one who could fight them was All for One himself, but All Might was there to hold him back as well.

Then, that's when Eijiro came into play. He reached out to the ground and yelled. "Come on! Let's go!"

Katsuki smiled and grabbed onto Typhlosion. Cofagrigus and Tomura both reached out to try and stop them, but they weren't fast enough. Typhlosion, using the combined power of Lava Plume, Flamethrower, and Flame Wheel, created an explosion so powerful that it pushed all of the Villains back.

As he dashed around using the enhanced Flame Wheel, Typhlosion kept Katsuki safe from the flames by keeping him close to the center of his body and away from the flames. Using the rubble from the buildings, Typhlosion was able to gain height and use them as a ramp to eventually fly up into the air and throw Katsuki toward the students.

Eijiro caught Katsuki as the boy returned Typhlosion to his Pokeball. "Heh, are you stupid or something?!"

Skarmory cawed in pain as it struggled to continue carrying Druddigon and all of the students. Even returning the rest of their Pokemon to relieve the weight did little to help the bird.

"N-No, Skarmory, just hold on for a little longer!"

"We aren't gonna make it!"

"Wait! Over there!"

In the distance, they saw their ticket out of there. Braviary had returned and intended on helping the students make their mistake. "Get them out of here!" All Might shouted.

"Okay, I'm gonna return Druddigon to his Pokeball on the count of three!" Eijiro shouted.

"Skarmory can take care of me! Braviary should be able to handle the rest of you!" Tenya continued. They all nodded and mentally prepared themselves.

"1… 2… 3! Return!" Eijiro pressed the button on his Pokeball, returning the Dragon to his Pokeball and causing all the students to begin plummeting to the ground. Skarmory managed to catch Tenya by his arm, while the rest of the students were caught on the back of Braviary, save for Izuku who Braviary held on via his talons. "Thanks, Braviary! Take them to safety!"

Tomura clenched his fist and slammed his foot on the ground. "You… you show up everywhere!"

"Spinner! Compress! Get your Pokemon over here!" Magne shouted. Once Krokorok and Beheeyem got close to them, Magne instructed Probopass to use Magnet Rise. "Okay, Probopass is gonna use a magnetic force to repel you two toward them!"

Probopass shut its eyes and emitted bright yellow energy. Suddenly, Krokorok and Beheeyem were flung toward Braviary and Skarmory, but there was still a Hero there who wouldn't allow them to reach the kids.

"Not today!" Alolan Exeggutor swung its head back and catapulted Mt. Lady right into Krokorok and Beheeyem, sending them all crashing into the ground.

"Mt. Lady!" Izuku called out. "Prioritize the rescue… you stupid kids!" She said before passing out.

The Villains took a step back and began cowering in fear. "We can still-" Out of nowhere, Hawlucha emerged and knocked Spinner, Magne, and Compress out, also managing to take out Probopass with a single Flying Press, finally allowing the students to escape.

"You're too slow!" All Might shouted as Gran Torino ran up to them. "You're too fast!" The old man replied. "That Midoriya is turning out to be more like you than I thought." He continued. "Not in a good way!"

"After Hosu, I didn't expect them to enter the battlefield again like this!"

All for One stood behind Mewtwo and let out a sigh. "Shimura's friend, huh?" He asked, referring to Gran Torino.

All Might smiled and he and Lucario pointed at the Villain. "Now, we can fight you without holding back, All for One!"

"I'll take care of those two!" Gran Torino said. Hawlucha stepping forward and standing his ground against Tomura's Cofagrigus and Toga's Zoroark.

"Hm, not bad. They turned the tables on us in a single move." All for One said, snapping his fingers. Mewtwo teleported behind Probopass and the two began glowing in pink light. "H-Hey, what are you doing?!" Magne shouted.

"You said you can emit a magnetic force, right? I'm simply using this to aid in your escape." Mewtwo lifted up the Probopass in the air using Psychic and moved it along the battlefield. Due to the magnetic force, Probopass pulled in the rest of the Villains and their Pokemon to himself.

Probopass slammed into Alakazam, allowing them to make their escape. "N-No, Master!" Tomura said as he tried to escape from Probopass' magnetic pull.

"I won't let you escape!" Gran Torino and Hawlucha tried running toward the Villains, but a single Shadow Ball was enough to push them away. "M-Master, please! With that body, y-you'll- don't!"

Tomura remembered how this man saved him from death. Without All for One, he'd be dead. When nobody else was there for him… All for One saved him. He raised him as his own… he was his only family. "N-No!" He shouted before Alakazam teleported them all away.

"Tomura…" All for One quietly said as Mewtwo returned to his side. "Don't stop fighting."

Lucario ran forward and got ready to use a powerful Meteor Mash, but All for One simply snapped his fingers. Mewtwo then used Teleport on Hawlucha, bringing him to All for One and using him as a shield to block the attack. The impact created a huge shockwave, severely hurting Hawlucha. Lucario looked at the Pokemon in horror, making sounds of remorse as it took a step back.

"I only came to save Tomura, but if you wanna fight, then let's fight." All for One said. "I do despise you after all. In the past, you used those Pokemon to crush my comrades, and you were seen as the Symbol of Peace. Your view of our sacrifice must be excellent."

Mewtwo reached forward and charged psychic energy, ready to unleash an attack. In an instant, Lucario grabbed Hawlucha and threw him out of the way. "Detroit Smash!" All Might imitated Lucario's movements as the Aura Pokemon threw a punch, colliding with the Psystrike in an attempt to shield them from death.

However, towards the end of the attack, All Might and Lucario could feel their time limit ending as blood spewed from their mouths. Their bodies gave in and the final blast pushed them back just a little.

"I won't let you rest easy. Heroes have a lot they need to protect after all, right?" All for One taunted.

"Shut up…" All Might clenched his fist and planted his foot firmly in the ground. He placed his hand on Lucario's shoulder and they turned to All for One with a determined look. "You always toy with others like that. You break them, steal from them, take advantage and control them! You play games with people who are just trying to live their lives!"

Lucario and All Might both dashed forward, with Lucario grabbing onto one of Mewtwo's arms and pushing it out of the way. "I cannot forgive that!" He yelled as Lucario slammed his fist into Mewtwo's face, slamming it into the ground.

Gran Torino ran up to them as he helped his Hawlucha back up. "T-Toshinori…" He said, realizing that their time limit was up. Both Lucario and All Might were releasing steam from their bodies, and upon closer inspection, All Might's face had already begun to revert to his weakened state.

However, much to their dismay, Mewtwo didn't seem down yet. It looked up at Lucario with burning hatred in its eyes and let out a grunting sound. All for One simply clapped his hands and laughed. "You seem pretty worked up, All Might. I've heard that line before…" He began laughing even harder, and the trainer and his Pokemon watched in horror, knowing who he was referring to. "The previous One for All holder, Nana Shimura!"
