A/N So I got some bad news that most likely mess with my update schedule for my fanfiction. I no longer have my job. I used to work at a hotel but due to COVID and the lack of customers the owners were forced to shut it down. So as I'm writing this I have no job. Its also the same reason I didn't update last week is because I was kind of put in a bit of depression because of the whole thing. If you want to help then you can go to my (pa)tre(on) page (slash) Lorenzo the story teller. It would not only help me out but you can read chapters early and it will help keep me writing. Thank you and I hope you guys have a good holiday and stay safe out there.


R-king 93: Thanks hopefully I can keep making more.

Koncor the great: The funs just starting.

Ryuzaki Uchida: Thanks here's the next part.

Pikapowerz: Simmons shut up and get down here. I need you to poison Girffs next meal


Chapter 29 Reunion and Meetings

To say tensions were high would be an understatement as the number one hero, a demon, stared down the biggest evil. None of them moved as they waited for the other to make the first move. "Are we going to waste the day just staring at each other or are we going to get down to business." said All For One

"Oh I'm all for messing up your face even more." said All Might as he was more than ready to begin pounding the villain.

Yushiro held his hand out. "Hold it, before we get started and I finally have a chance to talk with you, boy. I want to know something. Why? Why did you do it?"

All For One became quiet, almost confused by the question. "What do you mean?"

"When we first met, you were and your brother were on your own, all you cared about was providing for him, that was all you cared about. When we parted ways you refused my offer to travel with me because you wanted to stay in the same place you and your brother grew up in. I left you money, I even left you several ways to contact me if anything went wrong. So why, what drove you to walk down this path, tell me why in the world would you betray your brother who stayed by your side while you were ostracised by the people around you. At least tell me why you would betray him."

All For One was silent by this. For a long moment he couldn't say a word, through frustration and anger began to swell, both All Might and Yushiro could see this, they expected some form of angry response but instead All For One just began laughing. "Over a hundred years and you're asking that now. You digging up some ancient history there, Mr. Yushiro."

"Well I never had the chance to ask it before, you know with all the fighting and the amount of times you tried to take over the world."

"World domination? Is that what you think I'm after?"

"It's one idea but we can talk about that later, we need to stay focused on the important facts with the little time you have less." said Yushiro as he looked at All For One from a medical standpoint. "If I had to guess you have about thirty years left in you."

"That's good, my doctor told me that I only had twenty years left to live, but with your experience I'll take your word." said All For One. "That poison you made did a real number on me. I've had to constantly switch out quirks to keep it at bay, quirk after quirk, do you have any idea how many quirks I've lost thanks to you?"

"Not enough apparently." said Yushiro

"I think you should watch your mouth, they won't let a demon like you play hero, if they hear you talk like that.'

"HA," said All Might. "With the amount you've killed, the lives you've destroyed. You're more of a monster than Yushiro will ever be."

"Ah sorry All Might, I guess we were leaving you out of the conversation." as All For one acknowledged him. "How's the search for a new candidate. Before I die I would very much like to get rid of that annoying quirk my brother made."

Yushiro narrowed his eyes. "That won't happen. If there's one good thing about meeting you, it would be meeting your brother, a true hero." There was a pause for a moment as Yushiro let his words set in. "Looks like the talks are over, All Might, take him down."

"With pleasure." as All Might charged.

Ochako was keeping a few villains that were climbing on the boat at bay, 'This isn't good, they have the advantage here. I hate to say it but we should escape, we could if I canceled our gravity and Izuku jumped us to the shore.' "Izuku, I think we-" though when she turned she saw that Izuku was nowhere to be seen. She then looked over to the water. "IZUKU"

Suddenly a huge geyser of water shot up. In the air Izuku was using his piece of railing and hitting the villains left and right. Within a blink of an eye Izuku was able to take the rest of the aquatic villains out. He then landed back on the boat just as Ochako finished off the two that made it to the boat. "Ochako you okay?"

"Yeah how about you?"

"I have a lung full of air, and a weapon in hand." as he looked at the piece of the boats railing with disappointment.

"Izuku?"

"They took my sword and when that happened they took advantage and tried to trap me at the bottom of this lake. I became defenseless when they took my weapon away, and even though I've trained in unarmed combat I'm still lacking to the point I actually overreacted when I lost my sword. I've never fought without it." as Izuku's grip on the railing tightened. "I should have stayed calm and not reacted as much and have more confidence in my hand to hand combat. Then maybe.."

Izuku stopped as Ochako hit him with a punch to the shoulder. He looked to see her giving him a big smile. "It's okay, it just means you have something to work on. You just need to keep calm and stay on your toes. So don't treat yourself so harshly okay."

Izuku remembered their first meeting. "Yeah your right, I can work on that after we get out of this, thanks Ochako."

Ochako smiled back. "Don't worry and when this is over I'll help with your training if you want."

"Okay but we should get back to the others. This fight isn't over yet." Ochako nodded as she canceled their gravity and Izuku jumped to the shore.

~o~

"I think that was the rest of them," said Momo as she looked over the battle field that was filled with several criminals, all of which were beaten into unconsciousness. "This was easier than I expected."

"Dammit," said Yae. "These chumps were pathetic, I know brats on the streets of new york that can give me a better fight then these guys."

"Well at least we beat them," said Jiro as she looked over the field. "Hey where's Kaminari?"

"I suggest you ladies stay calm if you don't want anything to happen to this idiot." said a villain wearing a skull mask who was holding Kaminari by his head. "I will hurt him if-" he wasn't able to finish as Yae shot his arm causing the villain to release Kaminari and before he could react Momo threw her steel staff like a javelin hitting him square in between the eyes. "Y..ou bi..tches." was all he said before he fell.

"At least we're still standing, dumbass." Yae with a smug grin.

Jiro went to check on Denki, "Hey you okay?"

Kaminari sat up, but struggled as he was still fried. "Heeehhheehe. Did I win?"

"Huh, um… Yeah you did big guy."

"Yeeeeee"

"Come on," said Momo, getting their attention. "We should get back to the entrance of the USJ. The others are most likely there."

"Momo, right." said Yae. "Hopefully we can fight more of these idiots on the way."

"For the last time Yae that's…" Momo stopped as she realized what Yae said. "WAIT, what did you just say?"

"Oh you don't like that, okay I'll keep calling you Magic Tits." as she began walking off.

"NO NO NO. Use my name."

Jiro sighed at the two as she grabbed Kaminari's arm. "Let's go after them."

"WWWeeeeee"

~o~

In the center of USJ Aizawa was being surrounded by more and more villains. 'These guys are switching out. Those that are injured are in the back now. These guys are actually rotating. Who the hell is in charge of all this." as he tossed another smaller villain and to his surprise another villain caught him. 'They really are working together, in all of my hero career I've never seen this before form such a large group. Just who the hell is the boss here.' The villains then tried a pincer attack. "Shit."

"Armored Heart Punch." As several villains were sent flying. Melissa began to punch villains left and right as she carved a path to Erasure Head. "Aizawa Sensei, we're here to help."

"What?" as Erasure Head saw that both Shoji and Sato were behind her and taking their own villains out. "All of you go back, this is no place for students."

Melissa then whipped a villain. "With all due respect sir, no way. My uncle would never leave someone behind and neither will I."

"It wouldn't be very heroic if we did." said one of Shoji's mouths, which also surprised some villains long enough for him to land several punches.

"Even if we are in training we are still trying to be heroes."yelled Sato as he tossed a villain away. Soon all four of them were back to back. "We are going to fight and if we go down, we go down as heroes."

"You brats," said Aizawa as he gave up trying to tell them to leave. Though as they grouped together he noticed something was off. 'The villains, they've slowed down. Why? Unless are they waiting for orders?"

They were near the center fountain Shigaraki saw this new development and studied the new comers. He then lifted his communicator. "I don't have full detail on them, but all three of them have quirks that enhance strength. An orange wrestler, a mutli arm fighter and a girl with a lot of strength. Gunner squad separate them and have the blade squad go for the wrestle, he's the weakest one there. His comrades will try and save him, take that opportunity and kill the pro and the girl. By her movements I believe the girl to be Demon Slayers friend, she might be trouble. So make her a priority along with Erasure Head, get them both while they're protecting the others."

"Roger" came several voices over the communicator.

Overhaul watch this a bit surprised by Shigarki's strategy. 'He was able to analyze them, that quickly and formulate a strategy against them. I thought he was just a brat, since when did he know how to strategize.'

"You're impressed aren't you." said Kurogiri, seeing Overhaul's expression. "For the past few months during recruiting Shigaraki has been leading a few teams here and there on several successful operations. Either bank heist or to take out heroes. Not only did it get several criminals to join but it also showed them how excellent Shigaraki can be when he puts his mind to something, and it's all thanks to you. When you showed up, it drove him to do more and clearly All For One was right picking him."

Overhaul didn't care for praise especially at Shigaraki, but it did make it clear why All For One kept Shigaraki around. "So he isn't just chaos, he's like a diamond in the rough, huh."

"Something like that, yes." said Kurogiri as he watched the battle. "We expect big things from him."

"What are you, his mother."

"Hey can I join in yet." asked Rappa.

Tengai sighed at his partner's impatience. "Rappa, they will ask for you when you are needed."

Rappa tried to punch him as he put up his shield. "Shut up, by the time I join all the fighting will be over."

Overhaul was beginning to get annoyed with Rappa. 'Maybe I should kill him for a moment. Maybe that will calm him down.'

"Hey Overhaul," as Shigaraki got his attention. "I'd hate to waste his strength on something like Erasure Head but if it keeps him quiet then you can send him in. It isn't wise to keep some people chained up."

Overhaul didn't like the fact he was taking advice from Shigaraki but he couldn't deny he was right. "Fine, Rappa," Rappa's face lit up like a kid on christmas. "You can-"

"HEY ASSHOLES." all the villains turned to see Bakugo, Kirishima and Mina standing on top of some criminals. "If you want a fight, we'll give you one."

"OH YEAH" yelled Rappa as he got ready for the fight. "BRING IT ON."

Several other minor villains were about to step in. "Hold it, let him have this fight." said Shigaraki. "Maybe killing them will calm him down."

Bakugo saw that Shigaraki was the one giving orders. "YOU, YOUR THE ASSHOLE BOSS MAN GIVING ORDERS RIGHT." Shigaraki narrowed his eyes at him. "I'll take that as a yes."

"Don't talk like I'm not here." shouted Rappa as he charged at Bakugo. Bakugo got in a fighting stance ready to blow the guy away, when Kirishima got intercepted. "Okay you die first." As Rapa began to punch Kirishima only to find his punches weren't hitting the boy hard enough. "What my punches are, what's going on. He's deflecting them, no their sliding off."

Kirishima then saw an opening and countered with a Red Uppercut. An uppercut that was able to knock Rappa back a few steps. 'If I hadn't learned to shape my hardened parts then his punches would have knocked me out. His power is crazy but, if I keep deflecting his blows with harden flattened. Then just maybe I can hold my ground.' Kirishima was holding his ground. "Bakugo, go and finish this, you take out the head and the rest will fall. I'll handle this guy."

"You landed one hit," said Rappa as he began another volley of blows. "Don't get cocky you brat."

"KIRISHIMA!" yelled Mina as she saw Kirishima get hit.

Bakugo saw this for a moment and was surprised before he began grinning. "Don't you dare die red, I'll end this quick."

"Bakugo we need to help him," pleaded Mina

"NO," as Kirishima used the momentum from Rappa's punch to spin and give Rappa a doubled force back hand right in the jaw. "I got this, back Bakugo up."

"Not bad, bra-" as Rappa paused for a moment. "No, your eyes show you're a real man. Then fight me MAN TO MAN."

Mina begrudgingly listened to Kirishima as she chased after Bakugo. "Please be okay."

Bakugo slowly made his way to Shigaraki, seeing that Tengai stepped in Bakugo's path and brought up his shield. "Sorry, young man but you're not getting through."

Bakugo without losing a step, made his left fingers fold to make a circle and placed it right on top of the barrier, then put his right hand on top of his left. "AP Shot" What came next shocked all of the villains and for a moment stopped all the fighting as everyone saw Tengai's barrier shatter and the blast sending his charred body flying into the fountain.

Overhaul's eyes shot wide open at this. "That boy just shattered Tengai's barrier. How? Tengai's Barrier has withstood missiles, Rappa, even an angry housewife. Who is this boy?"

Yu, Toya, and Soramitsu of the eight precepts of death stepped in his way. "You're not getting anywhere close to Overhaul."

"Overhaul!" Everyone now turned the other direction to see Izuku and Ochako. Izuku was looking at all the villains before his eyes landed on Overhaul. "Plague doctor mask." Izuku's face slowly turned into absolute rage. "YOU'RE OVERHAUL! YOUR THE ONE THAT HURT ERI!"

"Well this doesn't look good." came a voice

Shigaraki turned to see some good news. "Rui"

~o~

(A few minutes earlier)

In the forest area the students were running for their lives. After Rui showed how powerful he was none of the students thought for a moment they stood a chance. "Over there the exit." shouted Mineta as he made a dash for the exit.

"Mineta," shouted Tsuyu as she extended her tongue and grabbed Mineta.

"Hey what are you doing," as he struggled against Tsuyu's tongue.

"Mineta wait look," said Toru as she threw her glove in the direction of exit, only for it to be sliced into pieces. "He blocked the exit with his string."

"Indeed," said Rui who was not too far behind them. "Your pathetic prey but I have a job to do. So please die now." as he sent several strings at them.

They all dove to the ground to avoid being diced into pieces. Aoyama got up and faced Rui. "Navel Laser" As he shot a laser at Rui who easily dodged it. "Huh? He dodged it?"

Rui noticed the reaction. "Please tell me that wasn't a serious attack." Aoyama began to freak the fuck out and started firing his laser at a rapid fire rate. Rui began dodging the lazers left and right, but all the students could tell it was taking minimum effort to dodge them. "Better but still boring." Rui then began to ship his string around until he had Aoyama's limbs wrapped up. With a flick of his wrist he slammed Aoyama into a tree, making the crunching sound of broken bones. Despite this Aoyama was unconscious yet, the shock kept him awake. "Still awake I see, I guess I should give you a chance to say some last words." Though Aoyama was silent as he looked up at his killer. "Nothing then I-" Rui then sniffed the air. "Did you just shit yourself?"

Rui then did a backflip to dodge the rocks being thrown at him. "Stay away." said Tsuy as she and Toru began to toss rocks at him. Rui rolled his eyes as he simply threw Aoyama at them. "I gotcha." as Tsuyu caught him. "Hang in there Aoyama, we'll get you to recover girl."

"That won't be happening." before Rui could attack Mineta started tossing his balls at Rui. Rui easily dodged as he wondered what they were. 'What are these? Do they explode? Are they full of acid?' Rui then felt his hand hit something. One of the balls was stuck against the tree, and Rui's hand hit it.

Mineta then laughed like a mad man. "Gotcha now! You're trapped so surrender."

Rui raised an eyebrow as he pulled his arm ripping the ball off of the tree along with some bark. "What the?" He then wiggled his arm in the air trying to get it off. "It's sticky."

"OH NO IT DIDN'T WORK."

"Did you really think that getting hit by one ball would be enough." said Toru

"Well it's still stuck to him." Rui then extended his arm before placing some string on top, he then used it to cut his hand causing the ball to fly off along with a lot of his blood. "WHAT THE HELL YOU CUT YOU HAND!"
"Oh the part of the skin that was stuck to your annoying ball." As Rui held up the hand to show the cut wasn't that bad.

Toru and Mineta stood in shock and in horror at the little boy who without hesitation cut himself to get rid of a small annoyance. "Doesn't that hurt?"

Rui tilted his head, surprised at the concern. "It's minor, compared to the pain I've felt before. Small pain like this is easy to get over when you've been at death's door."

"You can say that with a straight face." Toru was just shocked by this boy and horrified. "Just what have you been through?"

"That shouldn't concern you right now, especially since I just eliminated your last advantage." as he pointed to Toru's leg where he got some of his blood on her. "Now I have you."

"Just because you can track me doesn't mean you can get me."

"Yes it does." as string wrapped around Toru's body. "All I need to know is one point of your body and I can map out the rest in my head. Though I am a little surprised with how little resistance there is on you. Have you no shame to be walking around like that."

"I get it, why does everyone keep bringing it up." Before Toru was thrown at Mineta wrapping them both in thread immobilizing them.

"It doesn't matter now, the four of you are as good as dead now." That's when Rui did a head count and noticed that there was one missing. "Where's the frog girl? Last time I saw her she was taking that boy away." He looked over and saw Aoyama laying under a tree. "Did she leave you behind? Not the worst move to do, but unexpected to say the least." He kept looking but couldn't see her in sight. "I guess she really did leave, oh well. Time to kill the rest of you."

As Rui moved in for the kill he felt something coming from behind him. He turned swinging his threads, cutting several rocks that were being thrown at him. Before he could react Tsuyu was on him, he tried but she then spit up a glob of mucus hitting him in his face, blinding him. As he tried to clean his face Tsuyu jumped on him trying to tackle him to the ground, Rui, even though he couldn't see at the moment used the momentum and flipped her off of him by rolling back. Before she hit the ground Rui used his strings to grab her and slam her hard into the ground. Tsuyu had the air knocked out of her, she couldn't move as all of her limbs were bound by the string. She was trapped, she was completely at his mercy as the string pulled her into the air slightly above Rui.

Rui was finally able to use his sleeve to wipe off the mucus. "I will admit out of all of you, that was the best I saw today. You were able to move without me detecting you, I know you may find this hard to believe but that is impressive. Not many people have successfully snuck up on me like that. So I have to ask, why didn't you run?"Tsuyu looked at him with confusion. "You had several opportunities to run, so why didn't you? Do you not value your own life?"

Tsuyu looked at him while hope was slowly leaving her eyes, she could tell this was most likely the end. "I was going to leave them," Rui tilted his head slightly not expecting honesty. "I was going to leave them. After I caught Aoyama and put him down, I initially was going to come back and help the others but I stopped. I thought of my family, my siblings and I wanted to live. I want to live, but I knew I wouldn't be able to face my siblings if I ran like a coward, I wouldn't be able to become the hero they wanted or I wanted."

Rui was silent as memories flooded his brain. "So you came back because you thought your siblings would think less of you." Images of Rui's siblings popped in his head and then the images of the two siblings that led to his defeat hundreds of years ago.

Tsuyu closed her eyes as she waited for the her surprise though she felt herself slowly being lowered to the ground. She opened her eyes as she was being gentle placed on the ground, the sting then loosened around her. She turned to see Toru and Mineta untie each other and Thirteen dropped from the thread that held the hero in the air. "Are you letting us go?"

Rui turned and walked to the exit. "I'm also fighting for my siblings and my family as well. Run to the exit, if I meet you on the battlefield again, I will kill you." Rui left as he let the student pick themselves up. 'Maybe I have gotten soft,' As he remembered the way Tanjiro protected Nezuko. 'Or maybe it was because she gave off the same warmth you did, when you speak of your family, Tanjiro'

A Rui made it outside of the forest zone he was able to look at the battle. "Well this went to hell." An explosion caught his attention as he saw one of the eight precepts of death get sent flying into the fountain. "This does not look good. I guess I should hurry up and get back to Shigaraki before things get any worse."

~o~

Outside between the USJ and UA a clash between Titans was taking place. All Might was fighting with all of his might against All For One and he was winning. All For One was still in no shape to get up with All Might. He was getting hit left and right. All Might gave All For One another good right hook sending the symbol of evil backwards. All For One quickly stood tall again as he used a telekinesis quirk to send All Might back. "I see you've recovered from our last encounter."

All Might stood up as well. "You can thank Yushiro for doing such a good job patching me up."

"Yes, he is a good doctor." said All For One as he tried to search for Yushiro but couldn't detect him. 'Where did Yushiro go' as if an answer to his question All For One felt a claw from a beast swiping his chest cutting into his skin. He quickly pushed Yushiro away with enhanced strength x5, sending Yushiro through several trees. All For one quickly dodged a punched form All Might but didn't counter attack as he felt something was wrong inside his body. Using the telekinesis quirk he forced part of his chest to burst outward. "You bastard, you poisoned me with your blood."

Damn," said Yushiro as he put himself back together. "If you hadn't noticed you would have been unconscious within five minutes and dead in ten without medical treatment." Yushiro's legs snapped back into place allowing him to stand. "Though my little injection alone did quite a bit of damage didn't it."

"Indeed it did," admitted the villain. "I can't continue like this, today is your win. I will return though and when I do. You won't be so lucky next time."

"Who says we're just going to let you escape." as All Might punched All For One, only to find his opponent to shatter into shards of glass that disappeared. "No we can't let him get away now."

"As much as I agree with you, we need to go and make sure the students are safe." All Might understood and grabbed Yushiro and rushed at full speed to USJ.

~o~

Izuku and Ochako both landed on the shore next to the lake zone, though they quickly realized that they were right next to the villains. Lucky for them though none of them seemed to notice them yet. "Look," said Ochako as she pointed towards the group of villains surrounding Erasure head, Melissa, shoji and Sato. "It looks like they're fighting them off."

Though Izuku noticed that their strategy was changing. "Not for long," he said, causing Ochako to worry. "Their movements have changed and their targeting Sato. We need to help them now." Before either of them moved, an explosion got their attention as they saw Bakugo send one of the villains flying into the fountain. "Bakugo, what is he doing? He can't take them all."

"You're not getting anywhere close to Overhaul." Izuku blood froze as he heard the name Overhaul. He remembered the countless times he heard Eri scream in her sleep, the times she got scared and the stories she told of her countless deaths. Overhaul the one that hurt her.

Ochako saw Izuku's face. "Izuku?"

He couldn't hear her as he was looking over the group of villains. He then noticed one of them was holding his sword as he looked at the villain, he remembered what Eri had told him. "Overhaul" The villains finally noticed them.'The bird doctor mask.' The one wearing the plague doctor mask looked at him. "Plague doctor mask." Izuku's face slowly turned into absolute rage. "YOU'RE OVERHAUL! YOUR THE ONE THAT HURT ERI!"

"Well this doesn't look good." said Rui

"Rui," said Shigarki, seeing his comrade. "Good to see you, and yes this doesn't look good." as he looked to see Izuku and Overhaul staring at each other. "This looks like it will get worse before it gets better." As he turned to see Bakugo blasting away three of Overhauls men. "This brat is getting on my nerves. We need to kill him quick before any other surprises happen."

Boom

Everyone turned to the entrance to see it destroyed and something fly through the smoke into the air. It was Tomo flying with Hawks quirk. "All of you stop right now. I will not let any of you harm my students anymore. Surrender or I will beat you all within an inch of your life."

Rui looked over at Shigaraki. "Tomura?"

"God dammit, are you serious. How many of these fucking annoyances will we have to deal with before we can kill All Might." said Shigaraki in frustration before groaning. "Fine Nomu, it's time to go wild."
