Unidentified location, headquarters of the Alliance of Villains
The man known as All For One was watching the world news and the usual shit that kept coming and going, like an endless cycle. Every time a new villain appeared, a new hero did the same. And as soon as one of them disappeared, another took its place. And only their powers made them different in the eyes of All For One. All this was something boring for the antagonist, who saw it as an endless war that will end in no winner.
As proof, currently, he saw the interview of a new hero, who had just arrested a group of criminals. Then, on another screen, he heard about a drug dealer who was wanted. Then he looked at the new advertisements featuring heroes, enticing people to buy the products of the brands that sponsored them. The usual garbage.
When he was young, and the oddities were new in the world, he could have everything at hand and give people the powers and appearance they wanted. Until his younger brother betrays him by giving a powerful weirdness that has been passed down for 7 generations. However, the last user, Toshinori Yagi was the worst of them all. Not only did he manage to be the person who used the Quirk the longest, but he was also the user who managed to use the Quirk, almost to its full potential. Recently, he felt a strange sensation, a sensation that occurred when the Quirk passed, so he knew that Toshinori had passed his power on to someone else. As a result, All For One had to find this individual. And, when it does, he will kill him.
As the news passed, he saw the usual news of the day, but this time he heard something out of the ordinary.
'10 criminals were spotted in a rescue procedure today, by Kamui Woods, the number 8 hero and last year's newcomer. Here are some shocking images ,' a reporter said.
Immediately, All For One saw a photo where Luffy had razed a man with a single punch. Followed by a photo where Zoro had slashed Kamui Woods, with his swords.
"A group of people who prey on villains and heroes?" All For One wondered.
" Not only were they able to defeat the villain but also hurt the wood theme hero. Fortunately, Kamui Woods is fine, he just needs a bit of recovery! Nevertheless, we must remain alert! These people are dangerous and do illegal activities with their Quirks . '' Said the newcaster, until All for One turned off the TV.
''Huh... '' said the faceless man.
" These guys...could they help me? "
"Kurogi" Said the villain for his subordinate.
'' Yes Master. '' The mist man said.
''Concerning the mission I entrusted to you, did you manage to recruit useful people? ?'' asked All For One.
"I admit that it still takes me a while to find an entire group of bad guys who would agree to help us attack UA" Said the mist person.
''I need you to find me people'' Said the villain with a smile.
Deep in the dark cells of the great tomb of Nazarick. A dreadful place filled with poor souls, crying out for mercy and pain. Two demons stand before a dissected body, which appears to still be alive. Suffering in eternal agony. His cries did not seem to bother the two torturers at all, who were standing in front of him. In fact, they seem delighted.
"So, Demiurge, what did you find? Galadriel asked.
She uses her normal appearance, the highest level of the demonic race. Demonic Empress. Her overly long white hair swept to one side of her left ear. Two long horns, adorned with jewels and gold rings. Long black wings hugging her body tightly. And wear a red dress, with the luxuries that someone in her position should have. A beauty beyond anyone's dreams. A distinct look from her sixteen year old look.
"It's as we suspected, my lady! Quirks are genetic mutations. It seems that even animals can possess that, individualities. We don't know yet what causes quirks to emerge. But what we know is that these abilities reinforce each other's generation," Demiurge said, disappointed.
Galadriel didn't like that. So little is known about Quirks and how they work. Even in the realm of genetics, there is no simple answer.
"So little is known…" Galadriel sighed.
"Please forgive me, my lady! I should triple my efforts." Demiurge says.
"It's okay, Demiurge. We should continue to investigate this. Have our agents infiltrate all facilities in Europe and America, I want to know all about the Quirks and how they work," Galadriel said, looking at the poor victim in front of her with a smirk.
" If you're here, it's only because you're a rapist. " thought Galadriel with a sadistic smile.
"Understood, my lady," Demiurge said.
"Well, now can you tell me why you were interested in this kid from Midoriya?" Galadriel asked, curious about her tutor's sudden movement.
"I believe you know why, my lady," Demiurge said, smirking.
" No, I don't know ," Galadriel thought nervously.
"As you know my lady. We have taken the time to investigate all of the students participating in the UA Exam. The orders you have given us to search for possible dangerous Quirks who could harm Nazarick, or who could proving useful, led us to this kid. I had a weird feeling about him, so after digging for some information, I found out he showed no signs of quirks, until recently." , Demiurge said with a smile.
"Until recently?" asked Galadriel, more intrigued.
It was true that she was amazed that a person like Midoriya had such powerful power, with such a weak mind. The little boy with low self-esteem. Just like her when she was in school.
"Yeah, sort of. This kid appeared out of nowhere with a Quirk that made him strong enough to defeat a giant robot with one punch. But using that ability hurts his body. Which means his body is not used to this power," Demiurge said. *
" That's why he can't control it… I see now, it makes sense ," Galadriel thought.
"I doubt you were interested in him just because of that, Demiurge," Galadriel said.
"Not at all, my lady. What happened next is the most surprising thing, have you heard of All Might?" Demiurge asked, looking very excited about it.
"The number one hero ? Yeah ! " Galadriel said.
"Don't you think it's very interesting that he shows up as a teacher exactly when this young human is attending school? A human boy, with the same ability?" Demiurge says. "We have recordings and videotapes of All Might's power, and as much as I hate to admit it. We believe it very strongly, using the Yggdrasil level system, it must be around level 85 or even higher. It is of raw physical power. With immense durability, speed and stamina. Similar to Sebas, but not as strong," Demiurge said.
"Lest I say he's level 90 or 95. Then I can say he's strong, and if what you're insinuating is the truth." So this boy, Midoriya, inherits his power. Are they related? Galadriel said.
"We don't know, but I'll investigate it. Maybe he's his son or something more is going on," Demiurge said.
"Mm, I'll try to find out for myself, great job Demiurge," Galadriel said with a smile.
"You are too kind, my lady," Demiurge said, bowing.
"I have to go to school, so let me know. And send Shalltear, Cz and Lupusregina to take care of the Russian League of Villains, I want them to suffer, understand?" Galadriel said, almost growling.
"They will pay for what they have done, my lady," said Demiurge seriously. "But, before you leave, I would like to show you something."
"Huh ? "
Walking towards a door in the hall, Demiurge opened it and entered a dark room. Next, Galadriel saw a light illuminate the room and, immediately, she saw two ice demons, chained to a wall, by thick chains. Seeing Demiurge and Galadriel, the two monsters unleashed, trying to free themselves, in order to attack them.
At first amazed to see these monsters, Galadriel asked.
"Did you experiment on our prisoners?"
"Not at all, my lady! In truth, I found these strange demons when I returned from my last mission! They were attacking a village."
"Huh? Where do they come from and why are they like this? Is it the power of a Quirk?"
"Unfortunately, my Lady, I am still examining their bodies, so that I can answer your questions! All I can tell you is that their bodies are acting like an epidemic."
"An epidemic ? "
Wanting to demonstrate to her, Demiurge ordered.
"Bring in a prisoner."
Immediately, a demon came out of a wall, while holding one of Nazarick's prisoners. Being gagged, the man tried to scream and beg that nothing be done to him. Nevertheless, completely ignoring him, Demiurge addressed his subordinate.
"Galadriel-sama would like a demonstration."
Knowing what he was talking about, the demon walked towards the ice monsters, taking the prisoner with him. huge pointed fangs. Finally, his torturer threw him towards one of the ice monsters.
Opening its jaws, the demon took advantage of the human bumping into its body to bite it on the shoulder. Feeling his teeth puncture his flesh, the man opened his mouth so wide that his gag moved to fall level with his chin. Able to scream, he turned to Galadriel.
" HELP ME ! PLEASSSSSSSEEEEEEE ! AHHHHHHHHHH ! "
Standing perfectly still and stoic, Galadriel eventually displayed a startled look as ice covered the man's wound, before spreading to the rest of his body.
" NO ! NO ! NOOOOOOOOO ! "
Within seconds, the man's body was frozen solid. However, that was only the beginning. Still remaining motionless, Galadriel saw the prisoner's body transform and take on the appearance of an ice demon. Roaring the monster then turned to Galadriel and Demiurge and pretended to open its jaws towards them. Nonetheless, creating a small sphere of fire in his hand, Demiurge aimed at it, before blasting it away inside an intense inferno. Screaming in agony, the ice demon finally collapsed to the ground, lifeless, as its body disintegrated. Having seen all this, Galadriel tried to figure out what these monsters were.
"I understand the term 'epidemic'! These monsters can infect humans with simple bites and turn them into monsters in seconds."
"They don't need to bite them." Demiurge retorted, putting his glasses back on his nose properly. "In truth, all it takes is a simple touch for humans to turn into monsters! The power of these demons is like a virus that contaminates the cells of a body."
"What level are these demons?"
"I would say between level 26 and 29! It will all depend on the original power of the infected humans! More stronger they are, more stronger the demons will be."
"I see! And regarding the origin of these monsters, do you have any idea where they came from or who created them?"
"Oh? So, for you, these monsters were created artificially?"
"I really don't know! Artificial or not, these demons were surely created in a laboratory! But, if you want my opinion, these demons must be humans who had to undergo a series of experiments, which transformed them like this Nevertheless, it's still weird that they appear so suddenly."
"What should we do about them?"
"Keep on experimenting! In truth, their power is quite interesting! Besides, you must try to find a cure for their power! Imagine that more powerful demons decide to attack us! We won't know if their powers could contaminate or not! Besides, if an entire army of these monsters attack the world, imagine the fame of the companies of Nazarick, if we manage to be the only people with a cure to rescue people."
Starting to smile, Demiurge affirmed.
"It will be a great way to control them more."
"Exactly! Besides, I would like you to send some of your subordinates to the area where you found these demons! It is surely there where we can find clues as to where they came from! I let handle this mission, Demiurge."
"I won't disappoint you, Galadriel-sama." The demon assured, bowing. "By the way, regarding my experiments on these ice monsters, do you allow me to use and contaminate our human prisoners, in order to test our future cure on them?"
Smiling sadistically, Galadriel assured him.
"Have fun! That's what they're here for."
Then, Galadriel departed, transforming into a sixteen-year-old character.
Demiurge only bowed when his lady left. Then, leaving the room, he returns to the dissected body of the rapist, deciding to make him the first person who will help him create a cure, to help his lady to control this world.
"Humans can be useful! Nevertheless, they are much more so dead than alive! Currently, my Lady sees no use in you! Nevertheless, when you are an ice demon, we will perform countless experiments on you, to arrive at our purposes."
Back with the Straw Hats
"Okay here goes, Chopper, Usopp and Franky will pretend to fly and I'll pretend to be a costumer, then the rest of you will save everyone as ''new heroes'', after the riot I am going to get the manager to give us free food or fear a serious lawsuit against his establishment. So what do you think?'' said Nami to explain the free food plan.
"An awesome plan, Nami-swan" Sanji said with heart-eyed.
"Hey ! Why are we the bad guys? Why not Zoro or Brook?'' Asked Usopp angrily alongside Chopper.
''Franky alone can scare these people away, but you too are giving some kind of fear into the atmosphere'' Nami said with a smirk.
"Nami, this team is many things but none of us are good actors. Remember that theater scene we did alongside Randolph! We ruined everything. '' Usopp said in a sweat. "And, this time, it wasn't just Luffy's fault."
"I don't think our performance was that bad, I think I'm giving a solid performance," Robin said with a smile.
''You're right, Robin-chwan'' Said Sanji
"That thing wasn't even a musical," Usopp said hysterically as Robin laughed a little more. "Besides, people in this town already know what we look like! Why did they consider us heroes, when we fought against this wooden guy, who seemed like a local hero?"
"Relax, we've got it all under…" Luffy said smiling until he stopped to feel something.
Immediately, Zoro grabbed one of his swords, while Jinbei got into a fighting stance. Then, the pirates saw the apparition of the strange black fire, just in front of them.
"AAAAH! What is that ? '' Chopper spooked, while the rest of the crew was as surprised as he was.
"Black smoke ... ?" Luffy said remembering the black smoke and it could only be one person. "Looks like Blackbeard's power" Luffy said ready to fight remembering the man who was behind Ace's capture.
"Blackbeard? " Repeated some of his crew, shocked that it might be the new yonko, who was about to attack them.
"What does he want with us?" Franky growled. "Stealing the powers of those who ate a Devil Fruit?"
"AHHHHHHHH! Did he come for my devil fruit? " Chopper frightened.
"Mine too" Brook said crying in fear.
"I won't let that fool get away this time." Luffy said as he prepared an attack.
Through the black haze, he saw something strange.
A person with yellow eyes and a smoking tuxedo.
"What the hell…" Sanji said confused.
"Another Devil Fruit user? '' Asked Zoro.
"No, there isn't in this world." Robin affirmed. "He's a power user from this world! Maybe he's one of the heroes who wants to capture us."
Hearing this, Kurogi decided to raise his hands in the air, to show that he meant them no harm. However, interpreting this gesture as a move for a potential attack, Luffy rushed towards him.
"I won't let you." Luffy asserted, stretching out his arm.
" A rubbery man? " wondered the black mist.
Already surprised, by Luffy's power, he did it even more, feeling Luffy grab his arm, without needing to touch his armor to touch him.
''What ? " Said Kurogiri mentally usually he wouldn't get caught because of his quirk, but this kid was something different.
Examining Luffy's arm, he noticed that it had turned entirely gray and that strange power seemed to be what allowed Luffy to touch it.
" Who is this kid? "
However, not losing his temper, he declared in a calm voice.
"Wait a minute...I'm not here to fight."
"Huh? In that case, who are you? Who do you work for ? Are you a hero? '' Luffy asked disparaging the answers.
Discreetly trying to struggle, Kurogiri was unable to turn his body into mist where Luffy's fingers touched him. Any escape seemed to be impossible.
" He was able to capture me in my black mist form, no wonder Sensei wanted to recruit them. "Said Kurogiri mentally very nervous about the power of those people.
'' Hey, we're talking to you '' Zoro said, his hand still resting on his sword. "Are you an ally...or an enemy?"
"Is this guy really human? Usopp frightened. "It looks like his body is made of mist."
"Devil fruit or not, his power is like that of a logia." Jinbei remarked.
" Logia? " Kurogiri wondered. " Have they met people with powers similar to mine? If so, no wonder they could find a way to counter it! I must beware of them! Making enemies of them would be the worst possible ideas. "
"My apologies for attacking you out of nowhere. " He finally said. "My name is Kurogiri and I'm an employee of All For One, an important person in this town." Kurogiri said, immediately raising his hands.
"This guy...is he your boss?" Nami questioned him.
"Yes! He's the one who asked me to meet you! Apparently, he would like to meet you."
'' Meet us ? " Sanji wondered. "What do he want from us?" "
"He senses you're in trouble with the local heroes so he sent me here to send you all to a safe place where you'll be safe," Kurogiri said offering an option. ''There is also food and medicine."
Hearing this, the Mugiwaras looked at each other, while staring warily at the newcomer. Despite his offer, they knew nothing about him and what he was proposing could be a trap. He wasn't the first person to be nice to pirates, just to capture them.
'' I do not know. '' said Luffy, finally letting go of Kurogiri. "I don't trust you."
"Luffy is right." Usopp affirmed. "This guy is way too creepy! Who doesn't tell us he's some kind of pirate hunter?"
''I don't trust him either." Affirmed Robin. "But, we have no choice." "
"The heroes of this town are after us." Jinbei remarked. "We need to find a hiding place and try to gather more information about this world."
"We don't have any allies or plans or Sunnys to back up or security and with so many costumed people we're going to fight someone sooner or later. Nami affirmed. "Let's find out what this guy's boss wants us to do." "
Remaining silent, Luffy eventually nods his head.
'Okay man, take us to see your boss.'
However, he gripped Kurogiri's collar, before bringing his face closer to hers.
"But if it's ever a trap, I'll kick your ass myself! Do you understand?"
"Yeah!" Kurogiri assured who, strangely, seemed to be frightened by a power emanating from Mugiwara's body.
However, what no one saw was a pair of dark elves watching them from the top of a building. Having managed to find the pirates, Aura and Mare had used their super-sightedness to listen to their conversation with Kurogiri.
"Who is this guy?" Asked Mare. "There's no hero in this town quite like him! And I've never heard of one called 'All For One'."
"He's probably a member of a villainous group." Aura affirmed. "Perfect, let's try to gather information on him and these hackers."
Galadriel sighs, teleporting back to her mansion in Japan. Her guardians and everyone in Nazarick didn't want her to live in a department like she wanted. Old habits die hard. The first thing she looked for when she arrived in this familiar but unfamiliar place. Were apartments. In the end, they convinced her to buy a place to build a mansion. They used all possible protections in this place. They never wanted something like the Russian incident to happen again. They are very overprotective.
"My lady, we are preparing the limo and lunch," Narberal said.
"Thank you, Narberal," Galadriel said.
" I've got a limo who would have thought? Me in a limo… With a bento, going to school… That's so weird ," Galadriel thought.
Galadriel sighs, looking at Narberal and Entoma, the two Pleiades in charge of the homunculus servants and the protection of the mansion. Since Sebas has been in Europe with Solution, they've stretched Nazarick's power. Something she needs to be very careful of. It's a wonderful thing that she can use the payment to earn items. So she can summon a lot more minions and NPCs to help her manage Nazarick's workforce.
"I'm leaving now, take care of you two," Galadriel said, the two Pleiades bowing.
Galadriel sat down, still feeling weird inside a limo. Its driver is a minor demon, dressed in a butler's outfit. A very hilarious sight for Galadriel. But since in this world, many humans look strange, no one will bat an eyelid looking at him.
"Having a normal day," Galadriel muttered.
She felt melancholy, looking out the window, seeing the normal life of everyone in this world passing by. She's in Japan, but she can't help but feel like a foreigner. Maybe it was his fault for thinking it was his world. Galadriel can't help but feel sad sometimes. Thinking about what could have been. If her friends were here with her. They could have enjoyed this world too, but that would never happen. They are not there. They abandoned her and Nazarick. No matter how much she hated to say it. It was true.
"But I'm not alone," she muttered with a smile.
I think of everyone in Nazarick, everyone. And how happy they make her. Galadriel was deep in thought when, from the car window, she saw the green-haired boy.
"Midoriya? Stop the car," she said, rolling down the car window, trying to get the green-haired boy's attention.
" I can't find out more about him if I don't talk to him, " Galadriel thought.
Midoriya thinks of yesterday, and how tired he was. But thanks to Professor Aizawa, he understood what he had to do. He has to train harder, to control his Quirk more effectively.
"I can't help people if I can't control, one for all. Just like yesterday, if I only use part of my body to fight, I'll be fine, for now. I don't only need to use part of the power of One for All. My body can't use 100%, and I don't like breaking my bones and limbs all the time, so what can I do ?" Midoriya whispered.
"Izuku Midoriya," a voice called, but the green-haired boy kept thinking.
"The power is beyond what I can do, but if I keep training hard, my body will get stronger," Midoriya continues, not paying attention to the car next to him.
" Izuku Midoriya…"
Again the voice called.
"I need to see more video of All Might, maybe I can learn more about him if I see him in action…"
"MIDORIYA!" cried a voice, next to his ear.
Startled, the poor boy cried out. Then he saw a limo next to him, as well as the girl looking at him with a bored expression.
"Miss Nazarick?!" He screams.
"Mm, you talk to yourself, and just call me Galadriel," Galadriel said, with a stoic face.
"SS-Sorry!" He said, and Galadriel sighed.
"Come with me, it's a long way to school," Galadriel said, opening the limo door for the green-haired boy.
Midoriya's face paled.
"I…I can't! It's a limo! I can't come with you." Midoriya said in disbelief.
"We're going to the same place, Midoriya. Come before we're late," Galadriel said, not taking 'no' for an answer.
Midoriya only nodded and, with wobbly legs, he got into the limo. He could only stare at the luxury vehicle in awe.
"That looks expensive!" Midoriya affirmed.
"Huh? Is it true that it's worth more than a loaf of bread." Galadriel affirmed.
Midoriya try to smile. His mother would never believe something like this would happen, but then again. Her mother was acting weird in the morning. He didn't know why, but he would ask when he would be back from school today.
" Do you want something to drink ? Vodka? Whiskey? Brandy? " Galadriel asked, opening a small fridge.
"BB-Brandy?!" Midoriya exclaimed in shock.
"Midoriya, it's a joke, here have a cola," Galadriel said smiling.
"Ah? HAHAHA... Yeah," Midoriya said nervously picking up the can of cola. "Thanks."
" He lacks self-esteem ," thought Galadriel.
"Thanks for the ride. " Midoriya said, finally smiling at him.
"It's not a problem, we're in the same group by the way, I wanted to ask you something," Galadriel said, causing Midoriya to look at her in confusion.
"Ask me something?" Midoriya muttered.
"It's about Bakugo! Can you explain to me why he seems to hate your guts." Galadriel asked.
"Well…He hates me, I think just a little," Midoriya said shyly.
"Just a little? He wanted to kill you in front of everyone," Galadriel said amusedly.
"Huh? Let's say there's a strange bond between us." Midoriya confessed, looking away from her.
Then, seeing him remain silent, Galadirel decided to do the same, lest his questions only panic the boy.
Meanwhile, in Russia
"I told you that was a bad idea." Law stated.
"Shut up." Kid roars. "I never asked you to follow me."
"What do these guys want from us?" Killer asked.
Having had the idea to go to a dilapidated city, the trio had ended up finding themselves surrounded by an entire group of villains, being heavily armed.
"Hahaha! Look who we have here."
"People usually avoid venturing here! These guys must be really stupid for venturing into our territory."
"Huh? Who are you?" Law asked, not at all panicked by the situation.
Stepping towards them, a huge man with the head of an elephant asserted.
"I am Great Earthquake! The leader of the group 'Armageddon'! We are the strongest villainous group in all of Russia.
Pointing to Law and the others, he declared.
"I don't know who you are, but by venturing here you have sealed your fate! Nevertheless, I will be generous and leave you a choice! Do you want to die or become our slaves?"
Feeling veins forming in his forehead, Kid questioned him.
"I have a question for you too! Is a stupid guy like you really the leader of this group? Sorry, but your stupid elephant face and you make me think of a stupid parody of a group leader. "
"What did you say?" Roared Great Earthquake. "Guys! Kill him."
"Nevertheless, before he could do anything, a projectile punctured the elephant-man's skull, killing him in an instant. Startled, his men stood still, while his body fell to the ground. As startled as they were, Law Eventually he looked up to see three figures floating in the sky, they looked like three women, their faces masked.
"Did I hear you right?" Shalltear asked, dropping to the floor. "Are you the band 'Armageddon'?"
Landing on the roof of a building, the vampire was in the company of Lupusregina and Cz, and had been sent there to complete a mission that Galadriel had provided for her.
"I must confess that I am happy to finally find you! Nevertheless, this is bad news for you, because I had orders to kill you."
"What?" The villains wondered.
For their part, the pirates stared at the three women, before getting into a fighting position. In an instant, they had guessed that the newcomers were much more dangerous than the group of villains.
