Midoriya's PoV
"Young man, you too can be a hero"
Really? What changed your stance from earlier?
"I believe that with some training you could become my successor."
Well this is interesting
"So what do you say young man? Will you accept this burden?"
"Yes, I'm ready!"
Just like he said it would happen.

Flashback
—
"I'm afraid with no quirk, there isn't a possibility to become a hero."
Welp, there goes my dream.
He left, what kind of hero just leaves someone who they just crushed emotionally, on top of a building.
A laugh erupted from somewhere inside. My mom not believing in me is one thing, but All Might, the only thing I had to look up to? Well that's just a kick in the gut when a guy is down.
"Heh, I guess Kacchan was right." No one answered
He's always right.
I slipped my shoes off and set my backpack down, I wouldn't need them.
"You don't deserve the title of number one hero if you leave someone like this, I hope in my next life I'm not stupid enough to believe in heroes."
With that I jumped, and hit the ground much earlier than I expected.
"Well what do we have here? The child just seen saved by All Might jumping off a roof."
I stood to see I was in a bar two people in front of me, a male probably only a few years older than me, and a person made up of black and purple smoke, how did they keep their body together? (Midoriya Doesn't assume genders in this household)
"Yeah well, he's just like everyone else. Happy to help out a little but the moment they find out you have no worth in this world they write you off and leave you to despair." I looked at the floor, they would just throw me back off the building after they knew too. Anyone would.
"And why don't you have worth?" The smoke spoke
"I'm quirkless, I have no use in society. I thought I would prove everyone wrong one day, but when your idol tells you that your dream is pointless, well that changes your mind."
"So the number one hero left you in a vulnerable moment on top of a building, interesting. Wanna prove him wrong, wanna prove everyone wrong?"
This was new
"I mean yeah, but I'm quirkless, it's pointless for me to try…"
"All Might was quirkless once, but now he's one of the most influential people in the world."
"What the hell, that's not possible, quirks are genetic, you can't just give someone a quirk."
"But what if it's part of a quirk's ability to be transferred, or one that can take and give powers. What then?"
"Well then the one who posses that quirk could be called god, I suppose, or he could use it to eliminate all forms of power, therefore controlling our society completely."
"Exactly, now are you interested?" The blue hair male grinned
"What exactly am I signing up for, and what would I need to do?"
"We are the league of villains, and we want to change our society for the better."
I wanted to throw up, this entire time I had been agreeing with villains, what would my mom think, what would all might-
All Might. He didn't care, my mom didn't care.
No one did.
The fact is if I didn't get into U.A. I never had a back up, I would go to a perfectly boring high school, go to a perfectly normal college, and then… nothing
I had nothing to my name, no skills, no friends. Even kacchan wanted nothing to do with me, hell he told me to jump.
"You can trust us young man, we aren't who the media makes us out to be. We are outcasts like you, and we want to prove our worth just the same." The smoke spoke once more.
They care.
They saved me. I owe them my life. Not the heroes, no one but them.
"Ok, what do you want me to do."
"First tell us your name,"
"Izuku Midoriya"
"Well Izuku Midoriya, welcome to the league of villains."
"What do you need me to do."
"Well, from what we can see on the news there are a bunch of heroes fighting a slime villain right now, and they have a kid captured. I say you go and help out, try to prove a good heart to all might, maybe he will give his quirk to you in time."
"You want me to buddy up with All Might, I would rather see him dead than spend time with him."
"It's a way to learn his weaknesses, and in turn take his quirk from him."
"Fine, I need my backpack and shoes though."
They appeared on the floor.
"Coolio, if you could drop me about a block away that would be nice."
"Alright, we will be in contact, Midoriya."

End flashback

Ten months, it took him ten months to let me have his quirk, to be fair though, I am in the best shape of my life.
"Young Midoriya, it's time to take your test, but before that. I shall bestow upon you a power cultivated over several generations. One for All, use it well and with some training, you will be the greatest hero of all time."
Sure thing, all might.
"Uh, how do I get it?"
"Eat this!"
He handed me a strand of his hair, which I promptly choked down.
"Nothing said at all? Interesting, what if I was jesting?"
"You wouldn't make me do something that gross without reason right?"
"No, I would never do anything without a purpose, now remember, it'll take an hour or so for the power to work itself through your body."
"Anything else I should know?"
"Yes, if for some reason someone would try to consume your dna fear not. One for All can only be transferred if the current vessel wishes to rid themselves of this power."
"And what of you All Might? What happens to your power now?" I could see purple smoke out of the corner of my eye
"It will slowly begin to decrease, I will have to retire within a year or two, but worry not. You will get into U.A. Without issue." I could see one of my newest friends, he was supposed to be getting ready for the entrance exam.
"I just have one more question,"
"Of course, but you should hurry, it a two hour trip to the school."
"How is it we can both have this power?"
"Well, as you grow stronger, I shall grow weaker. If I were to ever perish the full power would be granted to you. But that's only once the power finishes combining with your dna, if I were to die within the next hour One for All would cease to exist.
The assassin stopped, this would complicate everything.
Mayhem stopped, and disappeared once more into the smoke.
"Alright I'm off!" I ran in the opposite direction, I signed up for the exam yes, but that was not the point anymore. He is still alive, and he will be far away once this gets finished, I needed to disappear.
I was suddenly grabbed and dragged into the alley way, and into a portal.
"Young Midoriya!"
"Holy shit, what was that for!"
"We were prepared for this to happen." Shigaraki explained
"How the hell were you prepared for that, I thought you didn't know anything!"
"That was entirely true, but since you played nice we have a reward for you."
"Oh and what's that? A new book, some matching shoes?" I was angry
"Another quirk?" A voice from the tv spoke
I froze. Ten months, ten months under cover, so I never met my boss.
"Hello there Izuku, you've done well."
That voice was hauntingly familiar.
"So you are All for One huh? It's nice to meet you."
"I have a gift for you. Come see me in person, and we can talk."
"Whatever."
