Heroes Never Die It's Hero Time

by Guardian-Sigil

One would think that in a world where everyday people possess impossible abilities nothing would really be a surprise. Izuku Midoriya, who upon the age of four was diagnosed as quirkless, was denied of his dream of become a hero that can save everyone with a smile. But fate gives him a chance; allowing him access not to one but a universe of powers and abilities.

87. Ch:80 Abduction

…

…

…

It's hazy. Everything is dark and hazy. His mind a fog, his body heavy, as nothing but darkness surrounds him.

His eyes, they won't open. Nothing but floating darkness greets him. But then a crack in the void, and light slowly fades in but it's still a blur. It's hazy but now it's light. But with slow blinks he is unable to clear his vision. A warm heavy liquid surrounds him, making it impossible to move his limbs, in fact he can't even feel the ground.

Dark shapes of red and black come in and out of view through the liquid before his consciousness fades away and he falls back into that eerie darkness.

…

…

…

His body suddenly jolts with a lurch as his body is ripped up and out of the heavy liquid. His body slumping with exhaustion and fatigue as figures surround his form just before everything fades out again…

…

…

…

His feet are being dragged across a cold metal floor. His entire body is cold and for a moment he swears he can see his own breath, albeit weak and tired. He doesn't resist the pull as he is dragged away against his will. And his consciousness falls away to a hazy darkness once again…

…

…

…

"Ugh…" With a groan Toshinori Yagi slowly pushes himself off the cold metal floor. His head is pounding and he's beyond exhausted and yet he feels…refreshed? And his body isn't aching or at least not as much as it usually does. Which just adds to the many questions he already has.

Such as where is he?

He appears to be…in some sort of cell? It's large, large enough to hold a rhino, although it'd be very cramp for said beast. The walls are thick, far thicker than what's reasonable and made of some kind of metal and cement combination that Toshinori has never seen, it's dark in color with a rough texture. And the door, well the door is also like nothing he's ever seen. It's a force field of some kind, red and transparent but clearly visible under a dangerous red glow. This confirms it, he has been utterly imprisoned.

He has even been stripped of his hero costume and gear. But it appears his captors have a sense of fashion as he finds himself in a sort of zero-suit that's red in color with white wire-like lines outlining the frame and meeting at the test in a sort of A like design.

He tries to get his bearing, recalling what happened such as the unknown villain's sudden appearance, his strength, and his declaration. "Young Midoriya, must be nearby…"

He approaches the laser shield door, leaning in close but not so close that he risks burning his own face off.

It appears he was right about this being a cell because he's found himself in a prison of sorts. The prison is narrow yet large, like it was made with the purpose of corralling giants into their cells. Speaking of which, the prison is lined with three rows of cells that are all stacked over the other, with cell doors of all sizes which all lead towards a central command tower that sits above the prison, overlooking all the cells and their inhabitants.

Speaking of which, Toshinori can take some comfort but also some fright as he finds that he is far from the only prisoner held here against his will.

Peering through the laser shield, he examines the first seven cells that are installed across from his own.

The first cell contains a sentient black ooze that splatters against the forcefield repeatedly while letting out a strange angry shriek.

In the next cell over, is a creature just as…alien. A large, almost dog-sized, purple star fish with a beady red eye clings to its cell wall as it slowly but desperately claws for a way out.

All the while, its neighbor, a predatory looking mutant with dreadlocks and mandibles is howling upwards with utmost rage towards the cell above his own. Where another mutant creature of an humanoid-like stature with a skeletal physique, black skin, and a large ovular head that arcs backwards. Its jaws open revealing a second set of jaws that lash out like an eel while it hisses back at the Predator with equal hatred.

And adjacent to those cells, there's a seemingly regular looking human, like him, inside. Well except for the number of cybernetic implants coming out from their body. They have a plaid skin color that makes the assimilated victim look even more sickly when matched with the dark cybernetic armor, bald head, ingrown face wiring, and a single glowing red cybernetic over his left eye. All the while he stares off into the prison with an indifferent and emotionless look.

But the strangeness only begins from there, and Toshinori really comes to realize just what sort of alienating place this is.

Like for real?! There's an entire cell dedicated to holding a chicken. A Chicken?! Sure, it doesn't look like a normal chicken with its orange triangular beak, angry red eyes, and blue wattle. But what's really disturbing is how it actually looks like it's trying to plot out in its head how to best kill everyone in this hellhole.

But then stranger yet is the huge dinosaur man sitting angrily. It kinda looks like one of those Triceratops-things, but on two legs and wearing a bulky and black jumpsuit.

And he doesn't even want to think about why a giant cell was installed to hold a seemingly normal looking fighter jet. What would be the reason for that?! It's not like it can just transform and walk away?!

"Just what kind of place is this…? And more importantly where is here?" Toshinori wonders before jumping in fright as the purple starfish pounces at the laser shield as if it were trying to get to his face. "And what are all of you?" He ponders before redirecting his attention back towards his not so accommodating accommodations.

He stares at his fist and then back at the walls in contemplation. After a moment of thinking it over and considering his options he tries to summon One For All.

It works, although it comes in slow and painful at first, as his fist expands and soon so does the rest of his body.

With a frown All Might turns towards the laser shield, reels back his fist, and launches it at the red doorway.

SMAAAAAASH! His fist crashes into the laser shield, causing it to ripple and shake but it fails to break. However, the slam was strong enough to send a thundering clash throughout the entire prison, startling the other prisoners.

From one of the nearby cells, a man with hawk wings on his back and a golden helmet is leaning against the cell wall with his arms folded and without a care. However, seeing the human struggle brings him a bit of joy. "So that's Earth's mightiest hero?" The hawkman chuckles. "You don't look like a worthy warrior at all. I'm willing to wager that you would easily fall to my hand. Hahahaha!"

There's a snarl from the next cell over from a one-armed man with long messy hair that certainly hasn't been groomed in decades. He's sporting a ragged old leather jacket and has two goggle lenses embedded over his eyes.

"Let's agree to disagree." The animal man snarls disgustingly. "You're no greater warrior than he is! Heck, even he could pluck your feathers, you damned turkey." The one-armed man glares over at All Might before flashing him with his gnarly fang filled smile. "But if it were me I'd have you both stuffed and cooked for dinner."

"Be silent!" Roars the Triceratops looking mutant from his cell which is way too cramped. "You are all pathetic worms! Nothing more to be conquered and trampled upon by the mighty Triceraton Empire!"

"Oh, shut the fuck up already!" Shouts a grey-green insectoid humanoid that kinda looks like a walking, talking fly with orange eyes and a foul mouth to boot. "No one wants to hear that propaganda bullshit from someone whose brain is the size of a grape! Seriously, you're just as fucking stupid as those two!"

From another cell, two aliens that looks suspiciously like Invader Zim but much much taller, have a spit take in response to being called out.

"Hey! I resent that!" shouts the red cladded mutant.

"Yeah, we don't need to take this!" agrees his purple colored equal.

"Hey, isn't he from Earth?" asks the red one when he finally spots All Might.

But the purple one is already bored. "Eh, who cares?"

"But isn't that where we sent Zim?"

"Who? Hm. Oh, yeah! Zim! We hate that guy!"

"Yeah! Haha Ha Ha! We sure do!"

"Be quiet!" Orders a human shaped robot that has a giant pink brain stuffed into its gut. "Be quiet in this palace where this palace is here right now so that the ones referred to as prisoners which are prisoners in this place can proceed to think of ways to escape this place which is here."

The insectoid humanoid flicks the brainy prisoner off. "Fuck! Your voice is so annoying! It's worse than the gerbil's!"

A gerbil-like mutant with a red cape begins shrieking from his cell as he has a full-on tantrum. "I am not gerbil-like! I am HAMSTER LIKE!"

More and more prisoners begin to join in, throwing insults, roars, and declarations of war and conquest at each other resulting in an orchestra of indecipherable noise and chaos.

Dejected and taken back by all the strange sights and unfamiliar languages, All Might deflates as steam just starts to roll off his body. The zero-suit is shrinking with him and keeping its tight form.

He hangs his head but glares at the shield, wondering how else he can make his escape and rescue Young Midoriya.

"I wouldn't bother trying, my friend… There is no escaping this place."

Toshinori jumps with a start. That sounded close. Too close almost like it was…coming from right next door! His head snaps from wall to wall until he spots an opening at the bottom sides of his cell walls.

He kneels down and places his head to the floor and finds a long but narrow three-inch gap in between the walls, allowing him to peer into the next cell over. And through it he can see a set of humanoid feet, both clouded in thick boot wear but undeniably human in shape albeit on the bulkier side.

"Who are you?" He asks. "And what are we doing here?"

"I'm a prisoner here, same as you." Answer the neighbor. "And as to what we're doing here, well in short, it's to suffer…"

Toshinori frowns, a pessimist is not what he needs right now. He needs to focus and get out of here… 'Hm, maybe my other neighbor will be more cooperative.'

He bends down again but this time looks to the cell to his right.

There is some movement, the sound of claws and pads scraping the floor can be heard as something paces back and forth. And then the figure stops, turns towards him and then.

"BARK! BARK! BARK!" A set of fangs suddenly try to squeeze through the gap and snaps at Toshinori who jumps back and away from the slobbery set of teeth.

"Grrrrrr!" The beastly neighbor rips its head away and seemingly struts away to the other end of its cell, leaving Toshinori alone.

"I'd leave that one alone" comments the neighbor. "It's been here far longer than anything else in here and it has the attitude to back it up."

Toshinori picks himself up and dusts himself off as he responds. "Well, aren't you just full of helpful tips?"

There's a pause before the neighbor solemnly answers. "I'm not much help to anyone these days…"

That gives Toshinori pause; he can only assume that this man may be another kindred spirit. One that wished to do good but…is now resigned to a fate he did not wish for. "How long…how long have you been here?"

"Not sure… It feels like months but…I'm vaguely sure it's been only a few weeks." There's a heavy sigh as the neighbor recounts his capture. "I ran my luck out, and I was finally hunted down and dragged back right here. Back to suffer for my crime…"

"And what crime did you commit?"

There's another pause, this one longer than the last that leaves Toshinori waiting for far too long before there's finally a soft and regret-filled response. "The crime of standing in his way."

"Who's way? You mean…that villain's?"

"Villain? … Yeah, I guess you would call him that… Tell me, how much do you know?"

"Nothing. And that's the problem…" He doesn't know a lot right now like who is this villain, what is his motive, what is his connection to All for One, and why did he take Young Midoriya? "I don't know where I am, where we are, or what's going on. I don't fully understand any of this to be frank but I had to come. I need to be here because he took my student. He took him away when I wasn't there to protect him… He has Young Midoriya."

"He what?!" The neighbor suddenly speaks with urgency and as he moves it kinda sounds like shards of glass rubbing against each other. "Dank farrik! If he has him then that means-" The neighbor gasps and cuts himself off before he says anymore.

But Toshinori caught that and immediately jumps on it. "No! Keep talking! You know something! Tell me! Explain yourself! Just who are you?! Who is this villain?! Where is young Midoriya?! TELL ME EVERYTHING!?"

But what Toshinori failed to realize is that the reason his cell neighbor stopped was because they have an unwanted guest listening in.

"Wow! And here I thought All For One was yanking my chain when he said you were getting weaker. But look at ya! And just when I thought you couldn't get any lamer. Hahahaha!"

Toshinori's blood runs cold as it feels like the entire cell is spinning as he finally locks onto the sneering gaze of one Henzu Uuichi, A.K.A. Nue. "Y-you…! W-why are you here, Nue?"

Nue couldn't be happier to tell him as he mockingly answers the former Number One Hero. "I'm moving up in the world. Unlike you. Hehehehe! I had to see it for myself but look at ya. So weak. So fragile. Oh, how the mighty have fallen. Hahahahaha!"

"I get it now." Toshinori scowls, determined not to break in front of this degenerate punk. "This is what it's come to then. The League of Villains want to make me suffer? Or are you expecting me to reveal where All For One is? Is this just good old-fashioned revenge?"

But much to his surprise Nue bursts into laughter like he found the hero's words just that hilarious. "HAHAHAHAHA!'

"W-what's so funny?"

"You are." Nue snarky remarks. "You really have no idea what you're in for…Heeero." With a whip of his tail on the door the laser door shuts off and Nue stomps inside, forcing Toshinori to jump back at the ready. "Now you're coming with me."

"And-and why would I do that?"

Nue makes a show to shrug it off like it's no big deal. "I mean you don't have to…BUT if you don't I can't guarantee that you'll be seeing Deku ever again."

Toshinori's eyes widened with hope. And although this is clearly a dangerous situation and there's a ton of unknown factors, he has to at least confirm that Young Midoriya is alright. That he's alive. And if he is, then there's still a chance to save him..

And so the Symbol of Peace resides himself to his fate.

"Atta boy." A nasty grin stretches across Nue's face as he waves for him to follow.

Toshinori goes quiet, keeping his gaze down as he begins to follow. But before he can step over the threshold of his cell, his neighbor calls out to him.

"All Might…"

Toshinori freezes, not recalling a point when he told the prisoner his name. But even so he has his full attention.

"All Might…you can't let him have Omnitrix."

Toshinori frowns in confusion. "What…?"

But the neighbor just repeats the last line, "You can't let him get it, no matter what. E-even if…even if it means you can't save Midoriya."

To say he's beyond confused is an understatement, as Toshinori stares back at the cell with utter betrayal and startling shock. But after a moment he resolves himself and makes a declaration. "I'm a hero. And I'm his teacher. It's what I intend to do." And with that he's forced away by Nue and the two march off to face their destiny. Leaving the regretful prisoner alone once again…

"But you don't understand… You have no idea what kind of world you're stepping into."

As Nue leads Toshinori away they each fail to notice the set of yellow eyes following their movements from above. Between the ceiling pipes and bulkheads, Kraab scuttles as quietly as he can through the prison, watching the two carefully and with purpose before turning and eyeing the neighbor's cell in consideration…

Ch.80 Abduction

"Ugh… *Cough!*"

His throat feels so dry and unused, and his eyes feel so heavy and tight like they haven't been opened in over twenty-four hours. Gone is that strange feeling of suspension and water, now he feels nothing but the chilling embrace of still cold air.

It's enough to stir him, however, and Izuku Midoriya's vision slowly begins to return. "*Cough!* *Cough! Ugh…*"

Izuku blinks back the fog but he is still unable to make out anything around him, but it's not because of his own sight but because of how dark and empty this giant chamber is.

"Where…-?" He tries to pull forward but neither his arms or legs budge an inch and that's when Izuku realizes what a bind he's found himself in.

Literally. He's found himself suspended in the air in the middle of a giant metallic ring. His legs and right are bound in rays of suspended animation, keeping them frozen while his left arm and the Omnitrix are completely encased in a massive metal brace. Meaning that any attempt to escape via brute force is out.

His breath hitches as his heart begins to race and a cold sweat begins to form over his brow as he panics and tries to put everything together.

The first thing he notices is that he doesn't feel sick anymore nor is his body sore or hurting. Was he healed up at some point? He can't be sure.

But someone definitely tampered with him since all his clothes are gone from his hoodie to his red shoes, all replaced by a tight fit zero-suit with a jet-black design and green stitching that kinda resembles the patterns on Upgrade but more symmetrical.

"What-what happened to me…?"

He tries to recollect the most previous events, unfortunately none of it is good: he remembers the ambush at the training camp and all it entailed, he remembers the feelings of fear and dread as Tomura Shigaraki exposed his secret to Bakugou and the rest of the League of Villains, and he remembers…something. It's hazy and not all there but he…he spoke? Spoke to All For One…? But what did he say? What did he do? Everything's just…dark after that. "Just what exactly happened to me? Is-is everybody else…safe?" His mind races to his classmates, his friends, his teachers, and family. "Are they…okay?"

With little to no hope of escape all Izuku can do is wait, suspended in this dark empty chamber, alone.

However, he doesn't have to wait long as soon he has company. A small section of the chamber's wall folds in on itself creating a hexagonal portal that allows blinding light to pour in like a spotlight. And shoved in through the spotlight is the sickly and skeletal form of a very distraught Toshinori Yagi.

"A-All Might?!" Izuku gasps, feeling a mix of relief and dread from the mere sight of his weakened presence. "A-are you okay?! W-what are you doing here?! Is Bakugou safe?! What about everybody else?!"

As the portal shuts closed and casts them back into darkness, Toshinori actually cracks a smile, relieved, and almost happy to know that even while bound and captured, that Young Midoriya is still looking out for others. What a lad. "I'm *Cough!* fine. Honestly, I'm just glad I finally found you, Young Midoriya. And don't worry about Young Bakugou, he's safe. And you will be too. I swear it, you will be home soon."

Izuku sighs with relief and visibly relaxes at the news.

But that relief is short-lived as they come to find that they are not in fact alone.

As a bone chilling manifesto echoes through the pitch-black darkness. "Hope. Can be a powerful weapon. A single spark can ignite the fire of rebellion."

Slow heavy stomps clank across the chamber as a massive figure slowly encroaches through the very little light provided by Izuku's binds. Revealing the terrifying visage of the mad titan himself, the commander of the Chimeran Hammer , with his piercing red eyes and towering mass looming over them as his tentacled arms flex and pulse at his sides. "But when hope remains out of reach, just inches from your fingertips, it can generate the greatest of despairs."

Vilgax declares with a cold and controlled fury as he presents himself before the hero and student the latter of which has Vilgax's full and undivided attention.

"At last, we meet, the being that has caused me so much trouble." He leans in close to the point that even with the respirator Izuku can still smell the stink of the overlord's breath, as he names the source of all his troubles. "Izuku Midoriya."

Izuku reels back, it feels like a nightmare turned into a reality. He is finally face to face with the source of his problems, his concerns, and his many fears; Vilgax.

"You keep away from him!" Toshinori barks, definitely and with righteous anger. "He is my responsibility! And I won't let you hurt him! That boy, that young man, has a bright future ahead of him! I'll make sure of that!"

Vilgax has no outward reaction to the champion's declaration. Instead, he holds that cold analyzing gaze as he observes Toshinori's resolve. "Coming from you, I'm sure that's what you actually believe." He turns away from the boy and with just two steps he finds himself looming over Earth's mightiest hero.

And to his credit, Toshinori bravely holds his ground before the titan.

"You should be honored to be in my presence, All Might. Not many a being have earned this privilege."

Toshinori scowls in disgust. "You make it sound like I had a choice."

"No. You never did." He doesn't bother to deny the accusation, however, he's sure these two creatures are cooking up something in their little minds as they speak. "But I'm sure that even now both of you are resisting your fears. And plotting how to best me and escape. Foolish. But admirable. You humans have proven to be far more resilient then I had first given you credit for."

A bone chilling shiver courses down Izuku's spine as the far too familiar sense of dread begins to resurface like an aftershock.

Toshinori, however, feels more annoyance than dread, but still, he is wary. That said the more he keeps this villain talking the more answers he should get, "The way you talk, makes you look like you have heck of a god complex."

"I am no god. I know my place." Vilgax spits back. "I am superior. Far superior than anything your planet has to offer."

Now Toshinori's nerves are starting to get to him, just how can this man speak so confidently and with such an ego. "Just who are you? How can anyone be so insane?"

"No. You are simply misinformed. Deceived by those you hold close. Including…your students." The capturer's gaze turns and redirects itself, accusingly, at the shivering Izuku who freezes up in response.

Toshinori, of course, sees his reaction but can only assume it's from fear. "I won't fall for a villain's mind games."

Vilgax's frame twitches like he's holding back a laugh before stating the truth. "No games. No lies. No myths. I only work in the realm of truths and reality." He pauses and gives a sarcastic shrug. "Or at least when it suits me." He leans back, locking his gaze back onto the boy's, to which his gaze shifts upwards and towards the metal brace that's containing the Omnitrix from view. "You hold the key to a power struggle so ancient, so vast! It is beyond your feeble comprehension."

Izuku flinches but tries to look as brave as he can but he can't stop the sweat from collecting over his brow.

Toshinori grows more and more irritated, he needs to keep the boy calm and make sure this villain doesn't get under their skin. "M-maybe, but you can't hold us here forever. The pros will come. They will stop you." Now it's Toshinori's turn to look Izuku in the eye and give the young lad a reassuring and confident smile. "They will come for us, we just have to stay strong until then."

Despite Toshinori's expectations the results are far from what he desired as Izuku doesn't smile back, doesn't give a sigh of relief, or show any signs of reassurance. Instead, the boy…looks guilty and sad, turning away and unable to meet the hero's eyes.

Which causes his own confidence to drop. "M-Midoriya…?"

Izuku winces, tightly sealing his eyes and wishing that he'd wake up from this nightmare.

But the nightmare has only begun as Vilgax bursts into a fit of booming convulsion. "MwHahaha MWHAHAHA! And here I thought the child would be the naive one! What you fail to realize is that your precious heroes will never be able to find us! And even if they could, they would never reach us! MwHahahaha!"

This shakes the hero's confidence to his core, as an ominous and unknowing dread finally begins to emerge. "J-just where in the world are we?"

"We are in no world."

Suddenly dim lights of red flash across the perimeter of the chamber, illuminating just how large of a dome they are trapped in. Before every panel that's encompassing this massive dome begins to glow and pixelate together to reveal an awe inspiring yet terrifying visual: Earth.

Planet Earth glows through the hexagonal panels, massive, giant, and blue while the moon sits just out of frame and looming dangerously close to the ship. Meanwhile the surrounding chamber illuminates to show the vast emptiness of space with its expanding void and swirling galaxies.
Reality strikes down like Thor's hammer upon Yagi Toshinori as he is unable to peel his eyes away from the world altering sight.

And Izuku…is Izuku is in shock-and-awe of the sight feeling a mix of emotions; on one hand he is amazed by the beauty of it, the sheer awe, however, on the other hand…he feels nothing but pure and utter terror.

"Humbling is it not?" Vilgax asks blithely and without sympathy. "I remember the first time I looked back at my own homeworld. I thought it small and its flaws minuscule…" He raises his claw towards the Earth, however, hands over the blue orb from his own perspective. "But then a moment of clarity came upon me and in that moment I became more I became something far greater than what I was." He closes his fist around the image before declaring to them both exactly who it is they are to fear. "I am the Mad Titan of the Stars! The Grand Destroyer! I am…Vilgax the Conqueror of Worlds! And I am here to fulfill my destiny!"

'Of the Stars…? C-Conqueror of…Worlds.' Like a rusty clocktower the gears begin to grind together signaling the thundering bell to toll. While Toshinori watches on and thinks about how small Japan, his home, seems from up here. How one swirling mass of clouds can obscure it from sight or how it looks like it might just fall into the Pacific Ocean. It looks so…vulnerable from up here.

"What sort of thoughts must be going through your heads?" The Mad Titan ponders with an air of haughtiness and superiority. "What do you see when you look out into the void? Are you inspired or have you fallen to despair? …I wonder."

Toshinori's mind is racing to make sense of it all. This image. The implications. There's only one conclusion he can come to. 'This villain…he's not human. So then, what in the hell is he?' He's at a loss for words, left a hollow husk of swirling questions and doubt.

And the boy is no better. He's terrified and once he's actually able to prie eyes away from his own planet he very hesitantly looks over to see All Might's reaction. And he can instantly tell that the man is broken and falling to despair with undoubtable disarray in his mind. The hero has no idea what's going on, no clue what this really is or what it's about…but he does. He does know. He knows what's at stake. He knows what this is. And he knows that…he knows that others will be here to save them. "T-the P-Plumbers will come… Th-they w-will s-stop y-you-…"

Their reactions are slow mainly because they barely heard him, especially Toshinori who is really unsure if he heard the lad correctly.

However, Vilgax clearly understood what the youngling was saying. And he has this small look of mirth on his face like a gladiator who was just tossed a delicious slab of meat. "I know."

"And when they come they find themselves outgunned, outmanned, and out-witted."

A shiver runs down both Izuku's and Toshinori's spines even if the latter doesn't fully understand.

"The Magistratus will not authorize an official assault on me or my ship, the Chimeran Hammer." The Conqueror of Worlds pauses, pondering the results of such an order. "I suspect your father and Magister Nezu will disobey their orders and attempt a rescue with their limited resources." His tentacle wrapped arms flex at the thought as if they're begging for the chance to taste blood. "I have had enough bouts with your father to know he is not to be taken lightly. If anything I suspect he's borderlining hysteria and desperation at this point. And a desperate man can be a dangerous thing."

The Grand Destroyer stomps away, arms behind his back as he strides across the illuminated dome which is about the size of a football field from every angle. He arrives before the paneled wall, the side that's depicting the Earth. He stops and stares at the blue orb before a devilish-spark gleams across his eyes.

"Fortunately for me I had the foresight to procure myself the perfect contingency." With a click of his claws a section of panels on the floor slide away to reveal about nine pits as the sound of an elevator rises echoes from each of them. "Izuku Midoriya. All Might. I shall grant you the honor of being the first to witness the might and terror of those I have collected under my reach!"

As the strange elevators begin to rise the two humans catch glimpses of those being lifted in but at first they can only make out the tops of their heads such as a white dorsal fin and the liquid metal head of a being of black with red cybernetic lines.

"These are the worst the galaxy has to offer."

The next elevator rises with two beings with similar features of lock silver locks and an attire of red.

"They are products of greed and pride."

A armor of purple shines and whirls while a Samurai helmet of blue and silver gleams under the ominous light.

"Their wrath knows no bounds and no limits."

The final elevator rises revealing a woman of red and tech, and a monster so menacing and familiar that it causes Izuku to let out an audible horrible gasp.

"Now behold the might of the elite squadron of warriors that shall become my nine arms of destruction! All must fear the NEGATIVE NINE!"

Standing together with menacing gazes and auras is Vilgax's Negative Nine with the members consisting of himself and his most trusted underlings such as the groveling Psyphon, the menacing Malware, the greedy Sunder, the mysterious Ragnarok, the enigmatic SevenSeven, the ominous Techadon, the rebellious Rojo, and of course the nightmarish Nue.

The latter of which cracks a devilish grin and menacing cackle. "Admit it. You can't look away. Hahahahaha!"

It's a monstrous sight as complete devastation courses through the two prisoners as they look upon Vilgax's elite squadron. Izuku of course recognizes most of them, but Toshinori only knows about two of them. But recalling just how powerful Nue and Malware were back then he can only assume that the others are on equal par. And if so, if Vilgax really assembled a menagerie of monsters, then why? What is this all for?

"Just what are you after…?"

"I am Vilgax the Conqueror!" The Mad Titan repeats before declaring his true intent. "And I have come for the Omnitrix."

"The Omnitrix?" Toshinori pauses before recalling the name and his head spins around so fast that it might just snap off, as he locks eyes onto the metal brace that's containing Midoriya's strange green watch. "The support item?"

"It is no support item." Vilgax growls, almost angrily as if offended that such a highly unique device has been compared to such primitive tech. "It is the source of Izuku Midoriya's power. The entire reason he has come so far in his short time with it. For it is the greatest weapon in the universe!" He stops and takes a breath before directing this next statement directly to All Might and delivering the next fact with potent intent. "For it can grant its bearer the ability to transform their very DNA into any alien species from across the known galaxies."

"A-alien…?" this guy has to be crazy, thinks Toshinori. But… He gazes out towards the Earth and again, before he settles on the visages of Nue and Malware. He thinks for a moment that yes they both resemble some of Young Midoriya's transformations but surely that can't be the explanation.

"Noticing the family resemblance?" Nue taunts.

However, Malware, who is in his second form, can't help but grumble with disgust. [Family, such a primitive notion.]

"Consider the truths laid before you All Might." Vilgax interjects while setting a scene to help the hero understand. "A young child born without any gifts in a world full of them, one day stumbles upon a device that can grant them their very wish. They overcome many challenges with relative ease. Stand out before the selection with great promise. And yet strange events soon begin to happen around this lucky child. Strange and unworldly enemies appear with technology beyond what your world has to offer. Suspicions of traitorous intent and betrayal loom. And secrets are withheld." He throws a knowing look at said child who freezes and quivers under his piercing gaze. "And then a visitor from the stars appears and abducts the child and the asset away." He turns back to the once glorious hero and smirks. "Don't you see All Might? There are far greater threats before you then All For One."

A thunderstrike booms from within Toshinori Yagi's core as the cackles and laughter from the Negative Nine fills his ears. 'Aliens…? Aliens…? Aliens… It can't be but…'

As he tries as might to deny it his mind replays all the pieces together:

Such as their first encounter; '"Can someone without a quirk…become a hero like you?!"'

Then suddenly that same kid shows up out of the blue at several villain attacks and then proceeds to dominate the Entrance Exam with unexplainable powers and incredible ease. Then there was Nue's strange morphing into an abomination of all of Midoriya's transformations. Speaking of Midoriya, he always seems to reappear with a new alie-transformation almost every other week it seems. The appearance of the unknown bounty hunter, SixSix at Hosu with Stain. The immense destructive firepower during the Final Exams. The mecha battle between them and Malware. And the attack on the summer training camp…

But what truly hammers it in are All For One's own words: '"I told you already, you're in the dark All Might! And those two are the ones keeping you there! You truly have no idea what greater powers there are then you or any force here on EARTH!"'

"…Young Midoriya…?"

The boy slowly, and with trepidation, faces his old favorite hero. And the expression All Might has on his face is enough to shake his very soul.

"Is-is…is what he is saying…true?"

Izuku looks away feeling guilty, his mind racing for ideas on how to explain this or cover it up. But how? How can he possibly talk his way out of this? How can he even hope to escape in all this? The answer: he can't. There's no fighting this. No running from this. Lying his way out is no longer an option. There are no more cover ups. No. More. Secrets.

After a long pause Izuku tells the hero the very thing he did not wish to hear. "Yes…"

That is the final strike, the final blow to All Might's reality: aliens are real and they've been abducted by them. What a world-shattering reality.

All Might's reaction is that of utter devastation, one of which brings joy to Nue's own face. "And there goes any respect your hero had for you. Hahahahahaha!"

Izuku flinches and in a panic he tries to explain himself. "It-it was an accident! I didn't know what it was-...! I-...I didn't know what it would mean…"

"Exactly." Vilgax interjects. "The Omnitrix was never meant to fall into your hands. It was created to serve a higher power, one with a grander purpose than playing hero."

Psyphon cracks a smirk at his master's words. "You understand, human? You aren't worthy of the Omnitrix. You never were."

The Negative Nine break into maddening laughter as Izuku hangs there in utter dejection and misery while his old hero refuses to meet his gaze. Which causes his heart to squeeze and tighten.

"However, not even I can deny your success until now." Vilgax admits as suddenly hundreds of holographic screens pop into midair, swarming all around them with images and videos of Deku's and his friends' many adventures. "Your many exploits have proven just how skilled for someone so young is. If given the chance you might actually prove yourself a challenge to me one day."

Izuku and Toshinori's eyes somehow grow wider as they absorb all the visual information all at once.

There's images of Class 1-A's Entrance Exam. Izuku's first match against Bakugou as Water Hazard. Him chasing around Megawatts through U.A.'s campus. Diamondhead clashing with the Crab Nomu as the U.S.J. The entire Sports Festival. His fight with Stain and SixSix. Heatblast's meltdown at the faux city. Rath ripping out Vulcanus' head. Wildvine and Bakugou vs. Fun Gus. Bullfrag and Tsuyu avoiding the jaws of a Krakken. His many fights with various members of the Negative Nine. With images of his otherworldly friends too. Even Ochaco is there fighting against Sunder in one screen. And of course, there are images of the clash between Galvanic Mechamorphs on I-island.

And these images bring nothing but a sense of absolute failure and shame on Izuku's part. "You-you've been monitoring me? But Principal Nezu-!"

"Is one of the greatest minds in the galaxy. However, not even he can decrypt a virus so elusive that not even droids can find it."

Then that means, the signal jammer program never worked. It was a failure from the start!

"Ew acn tlhna ym rBo orf ttha!" Interjects SevenSeven while he stands off to the side, trying to look cool and intimidating. "Uhh, i ndorew woh eh's oingh."

"I never lost sight of you for a minute, Izuku Midoriya." Continues the Grand Destroyer. "I know your habits, your mind, your relationships, even your school syllabus. Doing so was a simple task." That being said, there were still many complications. "However, a problem did occur, you proved to be far too good at slipping through my claws." He raises his flexing claws and bulging tentacles at this statement as if he is holding back his fury and frustration. "When that became clear to me, it's when I officially put the League of Villains under my employment."

Shock, and Izuku let's out a sharp gasp. "The attack on the camp… Y-you orchestrated the whole thing!"

Vilgax gives him a slow, acknowledging, nod. "That I did. During the Hosu Incident I had Psyphon track down the League of Villains in order to make first contact."

"It was remarkably easy." Comments a smirking Psyphon. "But I'm not surprised your inferior earth security force couldn't track them down."

Izuku's starting to get the full picture here and maybe his mind is just looking for a distraction, but he goes along and keeps these villains talking. "And then…you told Shigaraki and All For One…everything."

Toshinori slowly perks up as the truth settles in again. "All For One…knows?"

"All For One is more illuminated on the subject then you, yes. Once we made contact, All For One made his ambitions and convictions clear to me. And thus, we struck a deal. A partnership as it were. Power in exchange for power."

Izuku is struck with a wave of remorse as he comes to understand that the League Of Villain only attacked the camp, his friends, and Kota because of him. Because of the target he's been carrying around and thus putting his own friends in the line of fire. It's his-

"Enough!" Toshinori snaps, unable to take it. "I don't understand! And I have so many questions…." He takes a breath, his body shaking and quivering before slowly settling itself as his hair hides his face from view. "However, I will not lie here and let you put down my student." "If-...If what you say is true then this young man," He locks eyes with the boy as a gaze of sapphire meets that of emerald. "is far braver than anyone has given him credit for. Carrying a burden far beyond my knowledge." With a push Toshinori slowly rises to his feet, to stand down the Mad Titan with the bravery of the true hero he is. "I refuse to let you tarnish him any further."

Izuku stares, wide eyed and shocked.

As Vilgax gives a hero a laudable look. "All Might, would you fight for this child? Would you risk your own power if it meant this child would live?"

Toshinori steadies himself before delivering his answer directly to the alien's face. "…Without a doubt."

"A-All Might…" Izuku chokes, even after everything he's learned All Might is going to stand up for him? But-but how can he be so brave? So, defiant in the face of it all? "All Might…"

"Then you will not refuse me." Vilgax continues. "As All For One and I have exchanged power for power then so too will you."

Toshinori doesn't like the sound of that but he holds his ground and prepares for the ultimatum.

"All Might you shall face me in one-on-one combat. I wish to test my might against what the Earth's best can offer. If you manage to defeat me then I can guarantee the freedom of yourself and the boy's back to Earth. Fail and you both shall never see the light of your sun again."

Now that's a surprise, and Toshinori is now questioning the logic and sanity of this supposed alien mastermind. "What's your game?"

"Like I have already stated, I play no games." The commander offers his hand to the hero. "Do we have an accord?"

Toshinori hesitates, eyeing the clawed tentacles with extreme prudence. "Except when it suits you." Even with the respirator over his maw, Toshinori can practically see the alien smirking at him.

"I need not handicaps." Vilgax enforces while pulling hand back. "Do not fear for your injuries. Ragnarok oversaw your recoveries himself, although admittedly we were unable to fix such long-lived injuries." Such as the severe wound on All Might's stomach, something like that would require far more time and resources, and a biology for that to be recoverable.

Ragnarok scowls, annoyed that he had to obey such an order. "It took incredible strength not to vaporize you both when you were in such a pathetic state." They were entirely defenseless while suspended in Vilgax's healing tanks. "It would have been so easy. Tsk."

"Why would you do that?" Toshinori ponders, directing his question back at Vilgax. "Not sure how you do things on-…on your planet but healing your opponent before a fight sounds like an ill-advised plan."

"A good commander does not fear battle, but they must deter battle however they can." Vilgax explains with the confidence of a grand philosopher. "Your legacy reaches far beyond your solar system, once word reaches the stars that I, Vilgax the Conqueror, have defeated the great and powerful All Might. Then others will fall at my feet before I can even raise a hand. Your vanquish will serve my goals greatly." That is the game he is playing.

'Serve your goals, huh… But what are my goals right now?' Toshinori ponders this question. Through all the confusion and fear of the knowledge that aliens exist he swallows it down like a hard pill as he considers what it all means. 'Has all my actions up till now been for not? Is One For All…? No, even this…alien understands the role of the Symbol of Peace. But is that my goal right now? To honor my status and role as the Symbol of Peace or… Is it for others' sake? Yes. My only goal, my only wish, has always been and always will be the case!'

His sapphire eyes lock onto the boy who is trembling within his binds. Despite the fear and tears streaming down the lad's freckled face, his body is jerking and moving in a way that he is trying, subconsciously, to break free. To run in and help even a sorry excuse of a protector as him.

'That boy… My goal is to see that this young man-this young hero gets home. To the world he belongs.' But that's not all he wants to do. He wants to-...has to make it up to the boy. This boy has been fighting a battle under his nose this whole time. 'I'm a failure of a teacher. How could I have been so blind? There's no wonder why I was never in the loop. But I see it now.'

Toshinori steals his body which goes from a slight quiver to a steadfast stillness. 'This is all so insane, it's crazy, and has completely taken me by surprise, however-...!' He smirks just a bit. 'What can I expect from such an amazing student? Young Midoriya, I made a promise to get you home and when I do I swear I will become the teacher you deserve!'

"I know exactly what is needed of me." Steam begins to flow off Toshinori's body as his muscles begin to shake and pulse. "Vilgax the Conqueror, huh? That's a mighty title you've got yourself there."

Vilgax's red stare pierces back at the hero's blue which stands firm and unshaking before the titan.

"Prepare yourself. To face THE SYMBOL OF PEACE!" All Might rises up the billowing cloud of steam with an inspiring grin, although half of his face remains sunken-in and meek. His red zero-suit stretching with his muscles, and not hiding the steel-like muscles and brimming determination.

Izuku can't breathe; it feels like all the air has escaped him out of disbelief and utter devastation. 'He-he's going to fight?! But his injury! And-and look at him! He's losing his strength-One For All is-HE'S RUNNING OUT OF TIME!'

However, a glance from the Number One Hero settles him down.

"TAKE HEART AND HAVE NO FEAR, YOUNG MIDORIYA. FOR I AM HERE."

Izuku is not sure why but drops of tears began to trickle down his cheeks.

"And so, it shall be." Vilgax snaps his wrist and upon his signal the panels holding the Negative Nine slide away, carrying the monstrous squadron away and upwards and out of the fight.

They each grin back, excited to witness such a fantastic show.

"In this universe only one thing matters above all others, power." Vilgax monologues as his cybernetic upgrades give off steam and begin pumping through his muscular system.

All Might stands his ground, squatting a bit while raising his fists up like a boxer as he prepares for a second life-defining battle.

"Who will be victorious, the Number One Hero or the Grand Destroyer?!" Suddenly the panels underneath Vilgax's feet shatter and crack under the sheer force of which the titan launches himself at the hero. "Let's discover that answer together, All Might!"

And thus their battle has begun, and already All Might is on the defensive since he barely has enough time to sidestep Vilgax's incoming claw. "SOME HOST! WON'T EVEN ALLOW ME THE FIRST STRIKE."

"I believe in honorable combat, however, when engaged in battle the superior mind and body conquerors all!" Vilgax's claw and arm unravel, unleashing a web of incoming tentacles. "Now give me all your fury!"

All Might just barely evades the tentacles that pierce through the air like arrows that spear into the ground and wall. As he dodges and evades the onslaught of tentacles, All Might tries to quickly access his options, 'I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT TO DO OR WERE TO GO. NOT TO MENTION THAT ONE FOR ALL IS ON ITS LAST LEGS.' he can feel it it's nothing but an ember now, one that will go out within this immense storm.

'THIS ARENA, I'M NOT SURE HOW IT WORKS OR WHERE IT LEADS.' He glances at the surrounding panels which are still displaying the slow revolving Earth and moon. 'IF I SMASH THROUGH THE WALL THERE MIGHT BE A CHANCE THAT I SEND US ALL FLYING INTO THE VACUUM OF SPACE. THEN AGAIN I BET THE WALLS ARE THICK OTHERWISE HE WOULDN'T RISK US FIGHTING OUT HERE.'

With the last tentacle piercing the panel at his feet, All Might takes off at a sprint to the side. To which Vilgax gives his arm a swing and having the still embedded tentacles suddenly slice across the floor and walls after him, cleaving off the panels in a shower of rubble and shrapnel in the process. To which the panels are quickly replaced with new ones.

'I HAVE ONLY ONE OPTION.' He stops and spins around to meet the incoming wave of tentacle without an ounce of fear to show. 'I'LL USE ALL THAT I HAVE TO DEFEAT HIM!' His fist shakes and glows with the power of One For All as he begins his counterattack. "SMAAAAASH!"

The force of the resulting whirlwind completely breaks through the surging tentacles, breaking their charge completely and sending all responding rubble and shrapnel away. So much so that despite being elevated up high the Negative Nine are forced to shield and brace themselves against the blast.

"Such power," Vilgax marvels as his tentacles retreat and merge back together at his sides. "but I suppose that is to be expected of the Quirk known as One For All."

All Might and Izuku let out gaps of surprise, although it seems that the Negative Nine did not hear what was said due to the incoming shrapnel and whipping wind.

"HOW DID YOU-?" All Might frowns as he quickly comes to realize the answer. "ALL FOR ONE."

"Yes, he was quite informative. For despite my own surveillance and even through the use of your planet's media I was unable to procure such insight into the source of your power. And once I was gifted with such knowledge, well, it only confirmed what I knew of this planet."

Neither Izuku nor All Might like the sound of that. What exactly does that mean?

"Now show me, Symbol of Peace! Show me exactly the kind of power you wield! Give me all your fury!"

"WE HAVE THIS OLD SAYING ON EARTH," The half-faced All Might speeds across the arena with such force it leaves dust in his wake as he cries out with a righteous fury. "BE CAREFUL OF WHAT YOU WISH FOR!"

Vilgax stands his ground, watching as the incoming fist races closer and closer. But then with effortless speed the massive titan swerves and sidesteps away as he unleashes a web of tentacles around the speeding hero.

"WHAT?!"

The web of tentacles come down around him, binding him before Vilgax uses the hero's own speed to thrust him forward and then swing him around.

All Might braces for the impending impact and it comes with a thunderous CRASH as he's sent slamming into the upper panels, and right in line with the image of Earth below. The impact is hard enough that All Might spits up a platter of blood and spit, which causes Izuku's heart to stop and the Negative Nine to cheer and boast.

All Might's body peels away from Earth and he falls, landing with a loud thud. *Cough!* he chokes back the blood and shakily begins to rise again with one knee up. "HOW DID YOU-...?"

"As powerful as you are, you lack a strong sense of strategy." Vilgax boasts. "Do you not recall what I said? I have been monitoring the boy's actions and movements for an entire year. And that includes all potential allies and threats he has gathered around himself. And that includes you All Might."

"AND YOU'RE PROUD OF THAT?!" All Might launches himself forward again at a breakneck speed. "GLOATING ABOUT SPYING ON A KID?! YOU PERV!"

However, not one fist manages to land as both his wrists are grabbed out of midair and pulled upward by the titan's tentacles: stopping him dead in his tracks.

"Don't mock me." Vilgax growls menacingly before he slams the hero down against the ground, shattering the panels underneath like a vase. He releases the hero soon after, standing over him with an air of superiority. "I will do whatever's necessary to guarantee my own success and victory."

Growing angry, All Might launches himself right off the floor and at Vilgax's head.

However, the Grand Destroyer meets the attack with a cool confidence. "I know your attack patterns." With a massive swing, Vilgax's own fist strikes first like a blur. Completely cutting off All Might's own focus and momentum with a bone grinding crunch to his side.

"Your preferred fighting style!"

And another strike to All Might's head has the hero dazed and stumbling

"You're weaknesses!" With a mighty roar and sickening squelch Vilgax's claw stabbed itself right into All Might stomach and wound.

There's no scream no cry only blood as blood not only spews out from his stomach but his maws as well in a horrible, horrible display.

"A-All Might…" Izuku watches helplessly as he witnesses a wave of steam explode from All Might's body as his focus is completely shattered and Toshinori falls to a heap on the floor with One For All flicking like a candle within him. The sight , the strike, causes his mind to flashback to when he himself pulled that very move: when Heatblast plunged fire into that same weakness during the Final Exam. "N-no… NoNoNoNoNoNo-NOOOOOO!"

Nue watches Izuku's expression and falls to despair from above and it brings a massive grin to his face. "Mehahahaha!"

"Is this truly all Earth has to offer?" Vilgax ponders aloud as he looms over the coughing hero. "For all that bolster, all that power, this is all it amounts to."

Toshinori can barely hear him through the ringing in his ears and him trying to stop any more blood from rushing out. But already he feels far weaker.

"In my studies of your world I have come to realize the sheer scope and size of your influence. Your sheer presence, your light, burns away the shadows. Leaving the villains scurrying away for cracks and holes like roaches."

Toshinori has stopped spitting up blood and it seems that the red zero-suit has some congealing-like features as it holds its form even against the wound, preventing any more loss of blood. Despite that he lacks the strength to stand up to this monster.

"And yet when faced before me your light is nothing. Your legacy was so fast that you were seen as nothing close to god-like. But you are no god. Nothing worth the worship. You are an imperfect being. A human." He says with disgust and mirth. "You're all nothing but greedy flea-bitten vermin."

Izuku breaks as the tears don't stop, blinding him and causing him to choke on his own sobs. He's crying because this is all his fault. It's because of him that Vilgax will have the Omnitrix. Why his classmates were hurt and attacked by the League of Villains. Why All Might might end. It'll be because of him that Japan, that Earth, loses their Symbol of Peace: a pillar of their society will crumble and he's the hammer upon which Vilgax will use to demolish it. 'There-there's no way he can win. It's-it's impossible. He's-…I'm only human. A weak Quirkless human. And nothing more…'

"You're right."

Izuku's head snaps up so fast his neck might break but he desperately tries to blink through the tears in order to spot a shaking yet determined Toshinori rising to the occasion.

"I'm no god." Toshinori admits as he wipes away the blood from his lips with a swipe of his arm. "Never saw myself that way, not once. I don't need the worship either. I never wanted that. Instead, what I am is a man. A man who makes mistakes, who can't see what's obviously in front of him, like how much bigger the world really is or how amazing his students really are." He can't help but smile at the thought of his students, of his predecessor, and of Young Midoriya cheering him on with shining smiles and brimming hope. "I am a human. But I'm a human that became a symbol to all. Why? Well, I guess humans are just greedy. Take me, I only ever desired a world where people can live their lives with smiles on their faces." One For All flickers within him as the candlelight begins to brighten. "And I will do all I can to achieve that dream. That is my light!"

The candlelight is blinding as a warm glow washes over Toshinori. Like a blanket it feels familiar yet empowering as the words of his late master, Nana Shimura visits him: "Toshinori, when you think you can't go on any more. Look inside."'

'I must remember…'

'"Remember why it is you clench your fist."'

'Where I started.'

'"Your past, remember where you came from. Keeping your origin in mind will help push you past your limit."'

'My origin, of course: "I want to make a world where everyone smiles and lives together happily.'

Yellow sparks of and lightning dance off Toshinori's right arm as it goes beyond his weak form to become an almighty fist.

Izuku can't believe it, he's going to keep fighting. But he'll-he'll die at this rate. One For All is-is fading! He can't summon his muscular form anymore! It's over… "All Might. NO!"

Vilgax acknowledges the Number One Hero's tenacity with due respect however his convictions are nothing but a dream. "How incredibly flawed. A world like that will never exist."

"Maybe but I guess my dream is like me. It's imperfect." Despite his sunken appearance and bloodied wounds, Toshinori is willing to press on and he says as much as an unflinching grin soon stretches across his face; even as the fire that is One For All grows weaker with every turn. It's a flicker, nothing but a feeble spark that's about to put itself out. "But I'm human, we're not exactly known for being realistic. But that's what makes us great! It what gives us the drive to Go Beyond!"

Izuku perks up, his eyes wide as recalls All Might's words to him the first day they ever met: '"It's not wrong to dream. However… you need to be realistic, kid."' He understands, this is not All Might calling him out or degrading him, it's him trying to make amends. "A-All M-Might *Sob*…!"

"That we can agree on." Both of Vilgax's arms rip apart to form masses of whipping tentacles that snake and spiral around his frame . "So, allow me to pull back the curtains of your fantasy!" With a slam the tentacles all clasp together and lash forward with a devastating spin like a giant drill that can pierce even diamond! "YOU AND YOUR POWER WILL FACE YOUR END HERE!"

"RAAAAAAGGHH!" With a roar Toshinori's fist meets this incoming devastation. The two forces collide at a single point causing their wills of green and yellow to clash against the other as a spiral of energy thunders between them before unleashing such a shockwave that it rocks the entire spaceship.

And yet it's not enough as blood begins to spew from Toshinori's buffed up arm and his footing is compromised as his entire body is forced back even as he holds his fist against the sheer force of the tentacle tornado.

And in the face of impending doom, Toshinori is still bearing a mighty grin.

Izuku can't believe his eyes, how can All Might still be smiling?! 'How…?!'

"How can you be smiling!?" Vilgax too questions.

"How? Simple." Toshinori grins back even as he's constituted to be shoved back.. "Because no matter how scared I am, I will smile to show that everything's going to be okay!" Through the shrapnel, wind, and blood Toshinori locks eyes with Izuku from across the arena.

And in a moment, a single moment that they lock eyes it feels like all of time has come to a still as Toshinori Yagi the former Number One Hero, gives his precious student a reassuring smile. "Because In this world, in our world, the ones who are smiling are the STRONGEST!"

"That accursed smile, I'm beginning to understand why All For One despised it so!"

"Very well," A set of spare tentacles branch out from the main spiraling drill and begin slicing away at the ground panels causing shrapnel to rain across himself and All Might. "then I shall tear it away!"

The power, the strength, and the shrapnel hailing down upon him, breaks through the hero's arm as blood spouts from his veins and his footing is lost, spelling his doom.

However, before he hits the ground a memory, an echo, hums in his heart from within the flickering flame. "'When you think you can't go on anymore. Remember,""

"I'll beat you, not because I'm a symbol but because I'll do what my master did for me. Until I've finished training my students!" And with the images of both Young Midoriya and Young Uraraka in his heart and mind, the hero locks his foot and brings the alien's advance to a sudden halt! "Until they're ready!" With that declaration Toshinori's left arm begins to spark with yellow lightning.

"Surrender! You have nothing else to give!"

"I won't!" In a puff of steam, his left arm takes on a muscular form that's brimming with sparks.

"What is this?!"

"I refuse-!" Toshinori breaks their clash allowing the spinning drill of death to graze just millimeters from his frame. "TO DIE!" With a mighty declaration All Might delivers an empowered left hook right into the base of Vilgax's skull!

The resulting punch knocks Vilgax back and away! Forcing the villain to break his own attack and to use his tentacles to pierce the ground and bring himself to a slow halt after ripping apart his own arena in order to do so.

Izuku and almost the entirety of Vilgax's Negative Nine release sharp gasps in surprise.

"Master!" Psyphon cries out in anguish even though the strike wasn't that devastating.

However, those like Ragnarok are incredibly impressed and intrigued. "He struck him? Hm."

Rojo smirks at the image. "Heh. He sure did."

"But how?" questions Sunder. "I couldn't see it."

'But I did.' Thinks Nue who is not smiling nor jeering but instead taking the battle seriously and paying it his full attention. 'He transferred whatever power he had left to his other arm to deliver that sick punch. In other words-'

'He used his right arm as bait!' Izuku realizes the same and a glimmer of his fanboy self-wishes to peek out. 'He's never done that before! Amazing! He-he can still fight! He really hasn't given up yet!'

However, there are forces out there that believe that they can change that. "Perhaps you're more strategic than I gave you credit for." He rips panels out from the ground and walls before combing his tentacles again into a drill but this time with massive shards of rubble and shrapnel protruding out, promising a very bloody clash. "But I am disappointed." With a ground shaking start, Vilgax the Conqueror stampedes at The Symbol of Peace with all that he has! "I WAS SO LOOKING FORWARD TO A MUCH BETTER SHOWING, ALL MIGHT!"

However, that grin remains unflattering as Toshinori's left arm begins to steam and fade away.. "That's because, I didn't put my back into it that time!" He swings back his bloodied, purple shaded, and clearly broken right arm back into the air, almost as if he were reaching for something.

And he is. It's a light, he's reaching for that brilliant light of colors that race through the never-ending void like a comet of white then blue then red, to green, to orange, to purple, magenta, and finally yellow. Before they all merge to become a blinding flare that's brimming with color and light! This cultivated power connects him to all others that have called this power their own, all those that have carried this torch so that one day it can bring about a bright future for all.

In the words of his brilliant master, Nana Shimura had put it best. '"This power has been passed on from hero to hero, each praying that it'll bring joy and peace to humanity. That One For All will give the world hope. And now it is your turn, do your best, Toshinori."'

And he grabs that power from her echo, he clutches that ball of light like it's the greatest treasure known to man. And it empowered him, giving him the flames that he needs to transform himself one last time.

Vilgax falters in the face of such light and fearfully places his spiraling tentacles between himself and the Number One Hero.

"RAAAAAAAAAGH!" But cheap tricks are no match for All Might's truth and purpose! His fist crashes through the tentacled attack, shattering it completely like a flaming hammer through noodles all before his fist collides with Vilgax's skull once again! The flame of One For All combusts beyond its frame, beyond its containment and goes PLUS ULTRA and lighting The Symbol of Peace's way. And with it All Might delivers a world-shaking punch. "UNITED STATES OF SMAAAAAASH!"

Like Vilgax's own pod of death had delivered onto Kamino Ward, the same occurs here with the roles reversed. Vilgax's image is nothing but a blur that is sent crashing across the arena and right through its heavily padded walls causing a massive detonation of devastating wind, electricity, and shrapnel! The Negative Nine try in vain to hold on but they are sent flying off their platforms in a gust of raging wind and sparks. Izuku can do nothing but hold on as the wind whips at his face and his suspended prion violently shakes and trembles. A piece of shrapnel pierces the brace containing his left arm, ripping a section off and exposing an underlayer of damaged circuits.

And amongst the glorious destruction…Toshinori stands alone at the eye, his grin finally waded as he delivers a mournful goodbye. 'Goodbye, One For All.'

With a gentle breeze, the warm little candlelight…is gone.

Astonishment, nothing short of it is felt across the arena and all its dwellers. The Negative Nine are so shaken they're silent with their jaws left agape.

Izuku is especially emotional, unable to look away as his hero bleeds but stands proudly before them all.

Sensing that he's being watched, a wounded Toshinori grants the boy a smile as if to say that it's all going to be alright. That there's no reason to have fear. They're going home.

And with that tears begin to stream as Izuku wails with joy and sorrow. "ALL MIGHT! Waaaaaaaah!" All at once he's never been so full of emotions, of joy and relief of the hero-his hero saving his life but of sorrow that he had witnessed All Might's final clash. And yet, it was glorious.

Toshinori lets him cry it out since he is unable to reach him as of the moment. Mainly because his body won't let him. His body, his muscles are exhausted and in so much pain, his arm especially feels like it's going to fall right off. Not to mention, One For All is gone.

'But it was all for a good cause.' Toshinori thinks with a sigh. 'If my sacrifice means that it gives him a chance to escape and make it home. Then it was all worth it.' He stares up at the arena and out to the image of the spinning globe. "Beautiful… What a beautiful home we have…now it's time we return to it." He turns back to his student and gives him a big old grin. "Wouldn't you say, Young Midoriya?"

Izuku…smiles back, through the tears and sobs he can't help but smile in relief as his brimming hero shines bright in the dark. However, through the darkness a shadow rises its limbs slithering out like serpents to feast on their prey. And with it Izuku's expression falls to devastation before Toshinori's eyes.

Sensing the danger, Toshinori spins around but is left frozen in place by the terrible sight that looms over him.

"Impressive. Most impressive. But not quite enough to defeat the likes of me."

Toshinori lets out a horrified gasp as Vilgax skulks out from the billowing black smoke.

"I now understand why All For One coveted such power! I must admit it, but I'm almost ashamed we couldn't have crossed paths sooner! You are a worthy opponent. Our battle would have been legendary! Hahahaha!"

"No way…" Toshinori is shaken to his core, his blood running cold at the sheer sight. "That's impossible. I-I put-"

"Everything you had into that strike. Believe me I am still reeling from the pain." Vilgax rolls his left arm as he uses a free tentacle to adjust his respirator as well as to tend to the newly formed cut of green blood leaking from his forehead. "All that for a drop of blood?" Now this brings a smile to his face.

Toshinori's legs buckle and he collapses to his knees as the weight of all his efforts proving to be vain falls upon him.

'All Might!' Izuku continues to cry and scream in his head. He desperately tries to twist and shake his body free but his imprisonment is unshakable!

As the two stare on in horror, the panels Vilgax had been previously thrown through begin to slowly repair and replace themselves back into place. As the gap in the wall shrinks, an orange crustacean scuttles its way inside. It scans the arena before quickly spotting the bound greenette and hurrying off for him.

"You are finished. You have no strength left do you?" Vilgax menacingly growls before the fallen hero, his tentacles slowly snaking towards the man's weak frame as to crush him. "Do not feel ashamed you were a worthy opponent! Not even I can deny that if we had fought each other while in your prime then I would have surely been defeated."

"L-leave him alone!"

The monster's tentacles cut short of reaching their target, pausing before retracting themselves back into the titan's powerful limbs. "Aw, the youngling speaks. And here I thought that you'd forgotten how vocal cords work. Do not fret, I am not without mercy." He returns his gaze back towards the former Number One Hero and states.

"W-what is it you want from me…? Was this not enough…?" Toshinori questions his voice just barely above a weak whisper. "Please…release the boy. You can do all you want with me after…" He knows the request is in vain but still…there's no more he can do.

"I think not. I still have use of you and the child." Folding his hands behind his back the Mad Titan strolls away, not fearing any retaliation at all. "As you have already put together, All For One and I have ourselves a…deal of sorts. Each promising the other resources and knowledge. Would you care to see the results of such a union?"

Neither Toshinori nor Izuku would like to see it but it's not like either of them have a choice.

"Psyphon. Bring the abominations forth."

"As you wish, Master." While Psyphon is lowered down from their perch, he clicks away at the buttons on his wrist band and upon doing so another set of panels .

Like before when the Negative Nine had first entered, more ground panels open away allowing a cacophony of snarling growls to rumble out from below.

"GRAAAH! RAAAWWW! RYEEEEE!" And out from the pits rise a trio of grotesque and never seen before Nomu with their terrible pitch-black skin and hideously exposed brains.

Izuku trembles in his binds. "N-Nomu?!"

Toshinori's face pales when the trio. "What? But the police-and the heroes. They-"

"Did not capture all of the League of Villain's Nomus. After everything you've witnessed, you should not be surprised that your intel was…incomplete."

"W-what are you p-planning…?"

"If you think that I simply requested a pack of mindless minions to use at my disposal, then you are gravely mistaken. No, that is why I have all of them." He gestures to said minions perched high above on the viewing platform.

Psyphon greedily bows before the statement. "It's an honor, Master."

Sunder lets out a grimace in response to Psyphon's groveling. "Brown nosing parasite."

SevenSeven gives a nonchalant shrug in response. "Ohw oends't ikle ogod ldo xtteoorni?"

Ignoring them, Vilgax continues with his explanation. "No, I was given these Nomu so that I may harvest their gifts." And from out of the corners of his respirator, a face breaking grin peeks itself out from underneath. "As well as yours."

That look. That smile. Those words. It brings a cold thundering stroke of fear to the former symbol's heart.

After sharing another look between himself and his minion, Psyphon begins initializing yet another entryway into the arena.

From the northwest corner of the arena, another doorway folds away causing blinding lights to flood the massive dome. And from it a squadron of red drones march each lifting up a piece of heavy alien-machinery like it were a heavy palanquin.

The machine itself is massive, it's as big as a pickup truck. With a metallic triangular front that leads to a giant battery-like structure of blue and silver metal and circuits. Which all ends with an tripod-like exhaust system at its end.

It's an imposing machine as the drones place it down with a heavy rumble.

"I call this the Charlotte Project!" Vilgax greedily declares with an air of excitement. "This device was inspired by All For One himself. It was specifically made with the purpose of transferring one being's power into another! And with it I shall claim your power as my OWN! HAHAHAHAHA!"

Now it all makes sense. Why he took All Might from Kamino Ward. It was all so he can claim One For All his own in and this machine. This hellish machine contains the same curse as All For One?

"T-that's impossible…!" Toshinori is shaking like a leaf in a thunderstorm before this all -terrifying device.

"For me, nothing is impossible. However, it has yet to be tested although it was guaranteed that it will not result in permanent termination, although my inventor did use the term loosely." The titan smirks at his own little reference. "And now All Might I grant you the honor of becoming my first test subject."

"N-no-..!" Toshinori can't bear the idea of anyone falling to such a device. 'I have to destroy that machine. It cannot be allowed to exist! But-' He can't lift his arms nor his legs, his entire body has given up on him. 'my body, it refuses to move!'

Vilgax's humanoid drones grab the weakened All Might and pull him away towards the Charlotte Project.

"NO! All Might! All Might!" Izuku almost can't bear to watch. 'This is horrifying. But One For All-it's not within All Might anymore. It's with Uraraka! So, when Vilgax realizes that-' His blood runs cold. 'Will he go after her next?!' That thought alone is enough to make his heart drop dead. "ALL MIGHT!"

"Shhh! Keep it down kid or you're gonna give us away!"

Izuku's head snaps up, it shakes violently as it tries to find the source until he spots it perched right on top of his floating imprisonment. "K-Kraab?!"

"Shhhh!" The cybernetic crustacean shushes him as he scuttles over to the main circuit board.

Izuku bites his lips and looks around to make sure no one heard but it seems that everyone's attention is on the Charlotte Project. "How?!"

"I snuck aboard Vilgax's death pod." It seemed like the most beneficial thing to do, especially after he was thrown off Uraraka's shoulder. Plus, it was surprisingly easy especially while Vilgax was too busy killing off those poor unsuspecting heroes. "Sorry it took me so long to get to ya. I couldn't find a way in until now."

"Quick! You have to save All Might!"

"Can't. They'll see me." Kraab explains as he starts prodding and digitally hacking at the metallic ring's system. "I'll release you first and then at the right moment you need to grab him and me and run for it. I know where the ships are. We might just have a chance to make a break for it if you can smash us a way out."

Izuku understands and he's all for the plan, but they need to act fast. "H-hurry then!"

The drones force Toshinori to his knees before the Charlotte Project's glowing barrel. It sparks with a menacing hum, roaring to life like a hungry lion about to sink its fangs into a bloody feast.

While its master places himself at the opposite end, his tentacles coiling themselves against the tripod-like handles, ready to absorb the incoming power. "Say goodbye to what makes you the Symbol of Peace!"

But there is no struggle, no fight, as Toshinori looks doom right in the eye. 'That's the thing Vilgax…I've already said my goodbyes.' The machine roars and a blast of light pierces Toshinori's very soul as it begins to drain away what makes All Might, All Might!

"AAAHHH!" Toshinori cries out in anguish, the power, the absorption, feels like his own veins are being ripped right out of his body! "AAAAAAAAAAHHH!"

"HAHAHAHAA!" Vilgax can feel the energy coursing through the machine, as it begins stocking up the Quirk! "Yes! YESS! The power is-"

The machine's roaring suddenly shuts down and enters a soft hum before becoming dormant. Much to Toshinori's relief.

"What?! NO!" That energy, that power, it's washed away to nothing. "Why did it not work?!"

Psyphon hurries to inspect the machine itself while Ragnarok leaps down from above and starts a diagnostic of its systems. After a moment he has his answer. "No. The machine did its work."

Vilgax gives him a dangerous glare. "Are you playing me for a fool?"

"No. It's simply that…" Ragnarok pauses and gives the former Number One Hero a look of disgust. "He has no power to give."

A long dramatic pause washes over the arena, Vilgax remains still and in clear shock of the revelation. "RAAAAGH!" Without warning he smashes his claws into the wall, causing the dome to shake and rattle and even the images of Earth and the moon to vanish, plunging them all into darkness.

Not a person or thing speaks a word, each too afraid that they'll be the commander's next murder victim if they so much as breathe.

Much to their shock, Vilgax does not rage into an uproar but instead he begins cackling at a maddening rate. "MwHahahahaha! HAHAHAHHA HA! ALL FOR ONE!" He is both irritated yet amused, the devil pulled a fast one over him and used him to shame his own mortal enemy in case he should fall. And Vilgax played his part, oblivious to any real reward. "It would appear you left out a great many details, All For One. Well played." He slowly turns, his giant mass making creaking shifting sounds as muscle grins against muscle. "Your power, it has been extinguished has it not?"

Toshinori bites his lip and refuses to meet the alien's eye as if afraid that he'd turned to stone under it.

"It did. You used all you had of it during our match. But why would you risk-?" An internal gasp and it clicks. The titan slowly approaches the hero, leaning down to eye level with his tentacles just inches from the man's face as he breathes. "Unless One For All was never at risk. You passed it on already…didn't you?"

Again Toshinori refuses to meet his gaze while Ragnarok and Psyphon look on since neither were able to catch anything that was said.

"If you had, then it must be a student, a child, one of those you protect. I wonder which one it is." He pulls away, standing tall above them all as he makes a menacing proclamation. "Perhaps I have one more prey item to abduct before all is said and done?"

Bolts of fright course through the two helpless humans, as their minds are plagued with images of Uraraka's bloodied, torn body coiled within the Gran Destroyer's bone crushing tentacles.

"But before I can claim the power for myself I am still in need of a test subject, thankfully I have three." With a snap of his fingers the drones pull Toshinori away as the three newly acquired Nomu step forth before the Charlotte Project. "Prepare the machine!"

Psyphon grimaces at his master's request. "But Master-"

"Do it!"

Psyphon considers the order before complying and resetting the machine once again.

And once again it roars to life, humming with a thunderous core.

And like a javelin the resulting beam pierces all three Nomus causing them all to shiver and wail with great pain, and yet their minds are incapable of having them move out of the way. "GRAAAH! RAAAWWW! RYEEEEE!"

The power surges forth like a tidal wave siphoning its way through a tiny tube at full force before crashing into its final destination.

"RAAAGH!" The surge courses through the Mad Titan, his entire body is engulfed with blazing energy causing his muscles to convulse and burn. "RAAAAAAAGH!"

Upon seeing his master cry out in rare pain, Psyphon panics to get control of the situation. "Shut it down, quickly! It's too much!"

Psyphon and Ragnarok move to shut it down, but they're cut off by the very one they're trying to save.

"NOOOO!" The Mad Titan roars, his pride and stubbornness keeping him locked in place. "I shall claim this world and its gifts as my OWWWWWWN!"

The surge reaches its climax as the entire Charlotte Project glows an ominous blinding light that erupts like a volcano. The Nomu, under the effects of the beam, collapses looking just as withers and broken as Toshinori while Vilgax's entire body is a glow with red burning scars and steam plumes from his veins as the machine settles down, its job entirely complete. It's like thousands of needles are sewing themselves to his body on a molecular level, rearranging and trying to piece together this foreign power into a system it was never meant for. And with the procedure done, the Conqueror of Worlds lets out low pained groans, his breathing is choked even behind the respirator, and he stumbles forth his entire body aflame until he collapses to his knees.

"Master?! Master?! Are you alright?" Psyphon is instantly at his master's side as the rest of the Negative Nine hop down and quickly gather around their leader.

Meanwhile, Izuku has had enough of feeling useless and watching helpless as his hero is tormented. And with the entire ship's attention on Vilgax now is the best time to escape! "Kraab now! Please, while he's down!"

"I'm trying!" Kraab's been trying for the last few minutes, but this thing is locked down tight. He pokes at another circuit only to be met with a discharge of sparks that cause him to flinch. Turning away he then notices the damaged casing of the brace and watches as sparks fly from it too.

"Aw screw this!" He gives up on the latch and instead scuttles over to the sparking gap, prying it slightly more open; he then shoves his claw in causing a surge of electricity throughout the brace and the ring.

Izuku pales, he can feel the electricity practically from inside the brace. "What are you-?!"

Before he can finish, a shock of energy courses not just through his system but the brace's as well. As it does he can feel his left arm convulse, stretch, and shift until the sensation spreads across his entire body.

Meanwhile, the Negative Nine hover over their fallen commander without any clue on what to do.

"Hey, you okay there boss?"

"Has he perished?"

"Heh! I sure as hell hope so."

"Eh. He'd have it coming. But he ain't dead."

[Are all flesh bags so delicate?]

"Eh's otn nnaog ied. Eh's het noshTa fo hist tosyr."

"Quickly! We must get him into one of the healing tanks so that he can recover!"

"Get away from me…" Vilgax's suffocating inhales return as he struggles to lift his own body. And yet his pride won't allow him to accept any form of assistance even though it's obviously needed. "I do not-…need your-…assistance!" He finally rises to his full stature and takes a moment to observe his seemingly unchanged body And yet he can feel the newly acquired power coursing through his veins. "It worked. I can feel the power. The Quirks swirling around me and becoming attuned to my biology. It was a success which means," In a flash his gaze locks onto the captured Number One Hero. "your power is truly gone."

A shiver runs down Toshinori's spine as Vilgax marches forward.

"I'm afraid that means I have no further use of you anymore, All Might."

Toshinori can't move, the drones' grip are too tight, not that he even has the strength to resist them anymore. But…he can't perish here. There's still so much he needs to do, so much to make for…! There has to be a way out. There has to!

"Have no fear, because I am here." Vilgax taunts, grinning evil from under his mask. "To put you out of your misery." He finishes while raising his convulsing claw. "Your death shall not be in vain, All Might. Your death will be felt all across the cosmos!" With a swing he brings his ferocious claw down like the judge's hammer, aiming right for the hero's head with a savage roar. "WRAAAGH-!"

"SKOOKUM KNUCKLES!" From out of nowhere, a statically charged fist of yellow and grey swoops in and clobbers the Mad Titan right in the dome. A thundering blast of lightning is unleashed and Vilgax is blasted back and right into the Charlotte Project!

Toshinori and the negative Nine watch with utter shock as Vilgax is ricocheted off the machine and into the far off wall with a shaking BOOM! Taking him out of the count for now.

The two drones have their heads smashed together before Toshinori finds himself being plucked up by a big and hairy arm that's covered in yellow patchy fur.

"Soaree boys, but we gotta bounce!" Shocksquatch shouts as makes a mad dash away from the villains with Toshinori under one arm and Kraab latched to his shoulder.

"Master!" Psyphon falls to anguish as Vilgax's form remains unmoving.

Sunder's jaw drops and his eyes go wide as he watches the giant ape man run for it. "The kid got loose but how?!"

"Who cares?" Nue grins his tendrils snaking as he runs his tongue over his fangs. "After that fight I'm itching for some action!"

"GET THEM!" Cries out the now pursuing Negative Nine.

Fortunately for Shocksquatch he has a huge head start giving him ample time to make a beeline for the opposite end of the dome. 'That's the spot where All Might entered which means it's our ticket out of this kerfuffle!'

"Y-Young Midoriya…?!"

"It's me, All Might. This is one of my new transfo-...aliens."

Toshinori jumps a bit, although he already knew that it's still a shock to hear it.

That looks hurts but he understands, which is why he needs to do this! "I'm soaree about everything, All Might. But I swear," He throws himself at the wall, his fist reeled back to deliver another Skookum Knuckles! "I'll explain everything once we're outta this gong show!"

Ge throws his fist forward but without any signs of warning his arm shrinks and stretches, becoming thin and bony before slamming into the unaffected wall.

*THUNK!*

"YAOOO!"

"Young Midoriya?!/Kid?!" Both Toshinori and Kraab gasp as Shocksquatch's arms turn slim and slimy.

"What-what just happened?" asks Kraab.

"You tell me." Replied Bullfrag as he shakes his aching fist. "One second I'm an ape and then the next I devolved into an amphibian! Kraab, you mind explaining?"

The cybernetic bounty hunter pauses before bluntly replying. "Oops."

"Oops?! Why oops?!"

"I was trying to overpower the system that held you so it would malfunction and release you. But I might have put too much juice into it. And now that watch is causing you to mis-transform at random!"

"At random?! That's gonna be a huge pain!"

"But not as much pain as you're gonna be, IF YOU LET THEM CATCH US!" The cyborg screeches as the Negative Nine descend upon them like a pack of starving wolves.

With the monstrous Nue leading the charge. "Don't go croaking on me yet Deku! The fun is only just BEGINNING! HA HA HA HA!"

"Sorry, but we gotta bounce!" With a salute Bullfrag hops him and the others up and away, evading Nue's fist which goes ramming right through the panels.

He lands but is forced to leap back again as they're nearly blasted with several laser beams.

Psyphon is enraged, frothing at the mouth at their insolence. "You'll pay for placing a hand on my Maste-GEH!"

"You really need to branch out, man!" Bullfrag comments as he delivers a leaping kick to the alien's skull-like face. "Try being your own boss for once! W-Woah!" No time to relax as he's forced to pull Toshinori back and away from the incoming blade. "Hey, what's your deal?"

"Uyo llidek ym rrothbe! Wno l'il akte ym eeevnrg!" SevenSeven is seething with rage as he slashes away at the frog, hero, and cyborg trio with his plasma sword.

"It was a figure of speech, my guy!" Bullfrag prepares to retaliate with a tongue lashing before once again his body shifts and turns, becoming smelly and multi-legged.

Stinkfly is left there, deadpan and startled by his own summoning. "You know what, I know a buzzkill when I see one!" With a buzzing of his wings, Stinkfly races off into the air with Toshinori still clutched under his arms. 'If I can stay up here maybe I can-'

A stray purple laser bolt nearly takes his eye. His eyes stalks flip back around to spot an incoming SevenSeven chasing him up high with his jetpack! "Hey, that's not fair!"

"L'il wats hist lfy! Nda laspttre yuro utsg lal ervo het rrdaee's crenes!" With an animalistic screech SevenSeven races after the bug and quickly closes the gap.

"Ahh! Stay away from me!" Stinkfly begs before his form changes to that of Upgrade whose left hanging in midair with Kraab and All Might. [On second thought-catch me!]

Unable to slow down, SevenSeven crashes into the liquid bodied alien! The hit is strong enough that Upgrade loses his grip on the hero and cyborg.

SevenSeven's shrieks are muffled and weak but the intention is clear, he's shouting for Upgrade to get off! But the Galvanic Mechamorph isn't going anywhere even as SevenSeven claws and pulls at his robotic flesh.

[Cool armor. Mind if I try it on!] And like some kind of cybernetic symbiote, Upgrade has completely taken over SevenSeven's armor, making the villain a personal hostage to boot.

"AAaaaahhh!" Toshinori screams as he and Kraab plummet to their deaths.

[I got you!] The Upgraded SevenSeven shouts as he races down and plucks the two of them out from midair. And brings them to a hover just feet off the ground. [Phew. That was intense.]

Toshinori stares back at his student with wide eyes, as if he's seeing him truly for the first time. But then his gaze shifts slightly behind the alien and his eyes grow wide with panic. "Midoriya, look out!"

[Woah-!] Upgrade acts fast, he ejects himself out and away from the bounty hunter. And just in time as a giant robotic mighty fist comes swinging in and slams into his own teammate's maw.

[No. Not you.] Upgrade whines as he stares up at the mechanical menace. [Just what are you made out of?!]

The blu-armored samurai of the Techadon towers over the glob and his allies. Gripping its sword and unsheathing it in an epic display.

[You want another go, big guy?!] Upgrade shoves Toshinori and Kraab away just as the Techadon's sword slices into his nanite body.

The sound frequency produced by the tuning-fork like katana rip Upgrade's body apart causing it to splash and splatter.

[Damn you-] Thankfully his body shifts and convulses again giving him enough strength to kick the blades away. "This time I'm putting you down for good!" Feedback rages. His tendrils spiral and swirl before lodging themselves right into the machine's heavy blue armor. "Face my wrath! POWER GRID: TOTAL BLACKOUT!"

From his two head tendrils lightning blasts itself into the Techadon's armor, while his fingers and tail drain the lightning and all excess power back out. This cycle roars and roars with bolts of lightning flying out between the connections! It's too much for the Techadon's wiring and circuitry to handle as its screen goes dark and its body goes limp.

Feedback cuts the circuit but not before draining the last bit of energy for himself, allowing the android to fall to its knees. "Take cover under this for now!" He orders, leaning the shutdown Techadon over Toshinori who's politely holding Kraab in his hands. "If you get a chance, run for it!"

"Young Midoriya, wait-!"

But Toshinori can't get through since Feedback's already thrown himself right back into the fray.

[Your Conductoid form is precious to you. Is it not? Then I shall rip it from the Omnitrix and feed upon its corpse!] Malware, red with his second form, has his arm shift into a blaster which begins firing upon the incoming cyclops.

Feedback doesn't blink, racing through the rain of lasers without an ounce of fear. "Malware?! I thought you turned into pixels back on I-island!"

[Foolish human! You cannot limit me to your own inferior Galvanic Mechamorph form!]

"And here I felt guilty about-Grrr! So, what?! Now you're some tyrant's lapdog?!"

[I am no servant. I am a partner! A partner to a being with access to technology beyond my own imagination!] His body morphs and shifts becoming that of a massive laser beam cannon. [With him, I am INVINCIBLE!]

Feedback's form shifts into that of a glaring Lodestar. "You're a monster." With a flick of his claw he releases a magnetic pulse at the mutated Galvanic Mechamorph. The magnetic pull instantly has an effect, Malware's form breaks apart and begins to splatter and thrash around like a fountain of gushing water.

"So much for being invincible." Lodestar comments before a sharp shink slices past where his neck should be.

Peering down with a jump he finds a glowing red ax-blade lodged into the ground. Hooked on a chain that runs through under his skull. "Hey! Mind giving me a heads-up next time?!" His head spins around following the chain up to the grey goblin flying up high on a high-tech glider.

"Finally! The Omnitrix!" Sunder cannot stop grinning as he pulls back on his chain, whipping the Null Void charged ax back to his hand. "After all this time I finally have it in my sights!"

Lodestar blinks back before his head falls to the side and he asks. "I'm sorry, but who are you? Ragnarok's little brother or something?"

"I am Sunder, the finder of rare and precious objects!"

"So, like you're a dumpster diver?"

That pisses the grey goblin off so much a tik mark grows out of his forehead. "DON'T YOU DARE MOCK ME!" He chucks his ax, and it spins like a boomerang as it races towards Lodestar's head.

But Lodestar doesn't dodge, instead he reels the ax in with a magnetic pull before catching it between his pincers. "You need a hobby, my guy. Might I suggest coin collecting?"

"Enough of you!" Sunder roars, firing a pair of rockets from his glider.

Lodestar prepares to repel them when suddenly he shifts yet again just as the rockets miss his form and strike the ground, causing a blast of smoke.

"Where did you go?!" Sunder roars, reeling his ax back in and failing to notice the extra weight it had gained.

He searches the smoke to no avail, gliding around in a circle when suddenly. "Woah-Aaah!"

His glider is going haywire, letting out smoke and firing at random. His rockets and bombs fall to the arena below causing the other members of the Negative Nine to run for duck and cover.

"Hey!" Rojo shouts. "Get a hold of that thing!"

"I'm trying!" Sunder shouts back, panicking. "But something's gone wrong! Waaah!" His own glider spins and chucks him right off much to a little alien's delight.

"Actually, everything is going exactly right." Grey Matter lets out a massive grin as he tinkers away at the glider's wiring. "A little alien knowhow and the glider becomes a toaster!"

He fires more rockets, splattering Malware again along with the squadron of drones.

Amongst the chaos Ragnarok runs through the onslaught of bombs with rage painted across his face. "That youngling is such a pest!"

Rojo runs past, aiming her arm cannon up at the crazy glider. "Then let's exterminate him, already!"

Together they fire beams of solar and heat but the glider's too slippery and small to hit.

"Nice try, Miss! But don't go underestimating me!" Grey Matter screeches in triumph, turning the glider's aim at them both and diving at them like a fighter pilot willing to Kamikaze!

Grey Matter jumps off and the two villains are forced to run but it's too late: the glider crashes between them with a BANG, detonating upon impact and sending them both flying in opposite directions.

"He's insane!" Rojo shrieks as she deploys a small bubble forcefield to shield herself from the shrapnel.

"He's a child." Ragnarok rages. "One that I plan to put down permanently!" Before he can make a move however, his body suddenly turns cold and stiff. "What?! No!"

"You really aren't the brightest bulb around are you?" Big Chill comments as he fades into existence, admiring his own handy work of burying Ragnarok in a sheer block of ice. "Now this is the second time I put your plans on ice."

Meanwhile, Toshinori isn't sure what to make of the scene. On one hand he so desperately wants to help and protect his student but on the other with all eyes said student now is the perfect time to move out and seek an escape route. "This is insane."

"The kid can handle himself!" Kraab protests while perched onto Toshinori's shoulder. "We just need to find the way out so we can all bail."

"Agreed." They watch closely as Big Chill morphs into Wildmutt who begins clawing and biting away at anyone who dares get near. "He's doing well for now but…that's only a matter of time."

"KRAAAB!"

The two spin around finding an enraged Psyphon with a bloody lip and seething expression. "You traitor! How dare you side with the enemy?!"

Kraab glares back, not willing to give this creep the satisfaction. "Hey, it's not my fault the kid pays me better!"

Psyphon is left stunned. "What?! AAAH!" And then he's left flat on the ground as Wildmutt leaps onto him before bounding off again with a beastly roar.

'The kid's doing great.' thinks Kraab. 'But the old fart is right. He's getting lucky but that'll soon change…when Vilgax gets up.' If that happens then…he'll have to consider his options.

"RAAAAAWR!" Wildmutt lunges at Rojo but she jumps back and dodged but she's unable to evade the beast's backhand which knocks her back.

"Grrr! You little BITCH!" Rojo unleashes a hell storm of laser beams at the dog just as its body shifts and convulses. And with a ZOOM a blue blur zips away from the incoming fire.

"Last-time-we-fought-was-on-the-racetrack!" XLR8 voice runs itself at high speed as he zips around the edges of the arena. "But-we-never-had-ourselves-a-proper-race!" He changes trajectory, and like a bullet he races right at Rojo. "Let's-find-out-what's-faster, my-feet-or-your-AIM!?"

Rojo continues to rain down bolts of laser but XLR8's too fast even as he launches a powerful beam!

The speedster drops to the ground, using his momentum to slide right up under Rojo's defenses.

"SKIDMARK DAZER!" He kicks his feet up so fast at Rojo that they're nothing but a series of blurs and afterimages, as he delivers nearly a hundred kicking jabs to her upper body and face!

"GLAAAAH!" It's too much for her to take as the series of blows knocks her right off her feet.

XLR8 watches her fall before with a zip and spin he's back on his feet in a blink of an eye and looking mighty proud of himself to boot. "Hehe. And-here-I-thought-the-Negative-Nine-was-supposed-to-be-tough."

"Young Midoriya! Don't let your guard down!"" Toshinori warns from the sidelines before his eyes grow even wider with panic. "Look out behind you!"

"Behind-me?"

An arena shaking SLAM crashes down behind the raptor as a snarky growl rumbles behind him.

Nue's menacing figure shadows over the alien like that of a crocodile overlooking a tiny lizard. "Long time no see, Deku. You having fun yet?"

"N-Nue." XLR8 slides back, wary of the monster's many tricks. "How've-you-been?"

He shrugs, feigning a friendly smile. "Oh, I'm doing great. You?"

"Ehehe, um, well-it-could-be-going-better."

"Yeah, well, it's about to get- A WHOLE LOT WORSE!" He lunges, baring his fanged filled maw as he swats at the speedster away with the back of his Lodestar-like pincer.

It's an easy feat for XLR8 to zip out of the way, however, and begins his own onslaught of speeding jabs and slices, zooming all around Nue's frame and attacking him from every angle imaginable.

"You're so annoying!" Nue roars he swats XLR8's zipping form to no avail, even firing off blasts of water and shards after him.

But the onslaught keeps on coming, however, it's nothing more than knives attacking the shell of a heavily armored tank.

"You think something that weak is gonna hurt me? Bring it on Deku! Give me everything you got!"

"You-want-it. Then-take-it!" XLR8 begins spinning around, forming a ring with Nue at its center. The ring begins to close in, as XLR8's sharp blade stick out like a wall of spinning blades.

"Alright, I admit it, this is pretty good." However, XLR8 has an obvious weakness. And with a flick of his pincer, the magnetic pull generated un-lodges the panels in XLR8's path.

"GAH!" His foot slams into the panel and throws him right off course like a dummy crash pilot! But then with a crack he's whipped up by Nue's tendrils and pulled in like a fish on a hook.

"Hehehehe. Checkmate, Deku."

"Ugh…" XLR8 doesn't know how to respond to this but, fortunately, Four Arms knows exactly what to say. "Round 4, Uuichi! Raaah!"

Using his free hands, he grabs Nue by the tendrils and pulls him in, throwing the giant off balance before pummeling his face with a pair of punches. It's a One Two One Two of punches as Four Arms keeps the mutant off balance by pulling and whipping his enemy's limbs round while simultaneously attacking.

"Hey Nue! You having fun yet?!" Four Arms asks as he begins spinning Nue around by his tendrils and arms. "Because I sure am!"

"You bastard!"

"Hehe! Hey, you remember this one?! It's my, STRONG ARM TOSS!" He spins and spins and with the build up momentum Four Arms throws Nue with all his might. Right. At. The. WALL!

"RAAAAAHHH!" Nue is sent crashing right into the wall, with a deafening boom that sends shrapnel and panels flying everywhere!

"You no good bastard." Nue growls in pain as he un-lodges himself from the wall. "You'll pay for that." From the side he spots Toshinori backing away from the Techadon as the android begins to regain power. "Oh, Deku!"

"Hm?"

"Try stopping this!" His right tendril coils itself around his crystallized right arm which prepares to fire shards of diamonds as electricity begins to discharge across the improvised ammo.

Four Arms gets ready, all four of his arms up and ready to catch the incoming projectiles.

A sly evil grin stretches across Nue's face as he swings his aim not towards Four Arms but towards the exposed Number One Hero instead.

"NO!" Four Arms panics and rushes towards the attack as Nue open fires upon him.

Toshinori is left stunned, exposed, and unable to act as the electrified shards fly with the intent to kill. Not even Kraab has time to react as Four Arms suddenly rushes in, his back to the shards, as he scoops up the two of them.

"All Might!" As Four Arms shouts his form morphs to that of Terraspin and just as the electrified shards pierce into his back with detonating sparks. "AAAHHH!"

"Young Midoriya!/Kid, hang in there!'

But Terraspin takes it, holding Toshinori tight in his flippers. "I'm fine. Are you okay…?" He asks, trying to grin and bear it with little to no success.

Toshinori can almost admonish him for that. "Don't worry about me! Worry about-"

"GAAAH!"

SevenSeven's purple blade slices against the turtle's shoulder before he and the others are kicked aside by the hovering assassin.

Thrown off balance and left stumbling, Terraspin is totally exposed when Sunder rushes in and clobbers him with the chain of his ax wrapped around his fist.

He's barely thrown off to the side before Rojo rushes in, in her own gauntlet firing up and powering her charged fist that sends Terraspin off in the opposite direction!

Through all this he somehow manages to keep his footing but it's all for not as a beam of solar energy blasts him from behind, thanks to the smirking Ragnarok.

"GAAAAAA-!" His, Kraab's, and Toshinori's wail before they are left frozen in place and caught is suspension by one of Psyphon's stasis beam.

This leaves them all totally and utterly useless before the massive stature of the Techadon. Malware soon joins the machine with what might be a smug smirk. [I find revenge comes best with a side of irony.]

Malware's body oozes over the android before combing himself with the mecha-monster's fist causing it to upgrade into a demonized gauntlet. [Now have a taste of our RED DEATH SMASH."]

The demonized arm erupts with flame-like energy before the spiked fist comes SMASH down onto Terraspin like judgment's hammer! Knocking them all right out of stasis and crashing into the center of the dome with an eruption on flying shrapnel and panels!

And with that strike, Terraspin is left lying on the ground, limp, and with his friends still protectively clutched in his arms.

"Midoriya!" Toshinori tries to shake the lad but he's not responding. "Is he-?!"

"He's alive." Kraab confirms, using his scanners to check for a pulse just as Terraspin begins to stir. "But-…"

They may not be for long as they find themselves encircled by the ravenous and bloodthirsty band of the Negative Nine. Like sharks to blood they find themselves surrounded by these vile, red-eyed fiends, their bloodlust unquenched and unsatisfied.

As Toshinori runs through their options, the turtle stirs and begins to rise, letting the man slide off to the side as he prepares to fight on.

But Toshinori refuses to let go of the flipper, begging Terraspin to stop. "Young Midoriya…please, you've done enough."

"No, it's not…" Terraspin coughs back while working through the pain. "This is my mess…I'm the one that needs to fix it."

'Young Midoriya…' Toshinori is left in shock-and-awe of this young man's resolve. And yet his heart won't let him be rest assured. 'Even after everything he's gone through, through all the struggles. He's grown stronger, but…I'm holding him back. I'm a burden!' And the sad truth is it may have been this way far longer than this; perhaps he's been a weight on this young man's shame for a long time… 'He's trapped here because of me.' He should have abandoned him, he should have escaped without him and run back to his friends and family. But he won't do that, that'll be the last thing he does. How does he know? Well, he knows this young hero, and his protective nature. This is what's running through the former Symbol's head as Terraspin places himself between him and the red eyed villains, 'How ironic, saved by the very first alien I ever encountered.' He thinks recalling the second time he met this brave young soul. He was always so determined even in the face of despair he always gave it his all, always moved forward no matter the obstacles that slowed him down. Like the turtle he's not about speed but the will to keep going, to learn, to grow, and never give up. 'Then that must make me the hare, the hare that was so caught up in his own glory to realize the wider world around him.'

So, now there's a choice before him: does he finish this race to the end of the line, or does he sit and watch as the turtle crosses first?

He doesn't even think of an answer as his body moves on its own, throwing itself in front of his precious student with arms up wide. "STOOOOP!"

Surprisingly the Negative Nine are brought to a sudden halt, because despite the man's weak constitution, that air that presence still feels like they're staring into the ferocious gaze of All Might, The Symbol of Peace.

Even Terraspin is in shock-and-awe of the man's amazing resolve and courage. "All Might…"

"YOU WILL NOT LAY ANOTHER FINGER ON HIM!"

None of them dare to make a move, none of them blink nor breath.

However, only one has the defiance, the will, to stand before such a legend. "Fine." Nue's crystalized arm shifts and stretches becoming a massive scythe of diamonds. "He'll watch as your blood coats this ship."

Toshinori doesn't flinch, he doesn't blink, nor does he give in to his fear as Nue raises the scythe over his head.

However, a quivering Terraspin can't stand by and allow this to happen but as if in slow motion he watches as the scythe begins to slice down at All Might. He begins to race forward. To stop it. To catch his hero. To save his life! But he's not gonna make it!

"Enough."

And like that it's like someone hit the pause button on the remote, and Nue's crystalized scythe comes to a complete stop with the tip just barely piercing the unflinching Toshinori's scalp.

The Mad Titan slowly rises, his breathing choked and labored which can be heard through the static of his respirator. "Not one of you…are permitted…to finish them. That honor…that privilege…BELONGS TO ME!"

The Negative Nine instantly step back, their preservations are so strong that they will not risk earning the Grand Destroyer's ire.

And yet is he really capable of much? His body is pulsing with some foreign energy. His muscles are inflamed and begin to glow with red hot irritation, almost like his blood is on fire as his own biology betrays the foreign DNA that's been injected into his system.

None look away, not even as the Omnitrix finally powers down with a set of low beeps, and in a flash of green Izuku Midoriya is left standing before this massive titan.

'Not good. Heck of a time to timeout.' he reaches for the watch only to stop and blink in confusion at the still glowing green dial. 'Must be because of that energy surge. It must have gotten some extra energy off from that!' He grips it tight and prepares to dial up a new form. 'I need to act quick before he-'

"Izuku Midoriya."

His breath hitches. His blood runs cold. And his heart stops as the Grand Destroyer speaks to him directly.

"Why are you humans such a frustrating lot?" He questions, not ironically nor to taunt, but of genuine interest. He wants to know. "For years the Firebreather has been breathing down my neck and turning my operations to ash. And then his own progeny acquires my ultimate prize and keeps it out of my reach no matter how many soldiers I send after it." He turns his gaze to the dome above and even though the image of Earth is no longer there he knows it hovers just below his ship. "And then there's their home. Their planet, this wretched world. So vast with champions that stand against any chaos. All led by a protector so powerful it even forced the likes of me to limit my movements." His claws tighten into a bleeding fist as his muscles and veins pulse like a raging fire. "Frustrating. Why are you humans so frustrating?! Well, No more! Here and now, I shall bring an end to all those that STAND IN MY WAY!" His claws unravel becoming a web of tentacles with glowing veins and rippling scarlet energy. "Face me now, Izuku Midoriya! Or you shall never see tomorrow!"

Izuku, Toshinori, and Kraab are left in a shambled daze of utter despair.

However, amongst all those gathered only Psyphon finds the will to speak up. "But M-Master you are not fit for battle! Y-you're not s-stable! The power, the Quirks they-"

"Are within me." Vilgax resummons his arms, allowing his muscles to flex and stretch. "They are mine to command." He can feel them, this new surge of power and strength, it's a marvel of pain that he has not felt for centuries and yet it's so exhilarating. "And what better opportunity to test this new strength than against the being that has been the pain in my side after all this time?" After all these months of healing, plotting, and failures it's finally come for him to unleash all the rage he's harbored for this accursed planet. "Come, Izuku Midoriya. Come and face your DOOM!"

A part of Izuku, that small child in him, wants to run and hide, to cry for help. But his body refuses to back down from even this immense threat. 'Vilgax the Conqueror of Worlds… This is the first time we've met but…it feels like you've always been looming over me. From the beginning,' He recalls every moment from when he found that watch hidden away in the trash, meeting Thirteen and Principal Nezu, his first encounter with Ochaco, the Entrance Exam, and his first few days of classes.

'So much has happened up till now, I've grown so much, made so many friends.' His classmates' and friends' faces flash in his vision from Ochaco, to Todoroki, to Iida, to everyone else. And of course, to his Mom and Dad, Thirteen, All Might and all his teachers.

'So many wonderful memories.' Like the Sports Festival, his Internship, and his Father Son Road Trip.

'Bad ones too.' Like Uuichi's betrayal, the U.S.J., Stain and the Hosu incident, his terrible Final Exam, the attack on I-island, the raid at the Training Camp, and now this.

'I've been hurt and sad and angry, but…for the first time in my life I've finally been living my dream.' Of being the hero, of saving others with all he's got. All so they can live their lives with smiles on their faces.

'I've saved others. I've inspired and helped them. I've made mistakes but I've been learning from them all!' He grips the Omnitrix ready and willing to put it all on the line for everyone else's sake! 'Everything till now has been leading up to this. Leading to this moment!'

"Choose wisely."

The adrenaline vanishes and he's left frozen once again before the Mad Titan's speech.

"Choosing the wrong form could mean the difference between survival and tragedy."

This leaves the boy stumbling for a moment, his mind unable to process what to do.

"Young Midoriya…" Toshinori's voice reaches him, causing the boy to hesitate as the old warrior begs him to stand down. "Please, I may not fully comprehend what's happening but please don't fight."

The boy is left shocked, unable to process the request.

"If you do…you may never…" A shadow lingers over Toshinori's face as he's unable to finish his own dark statement.

And Izuku understands he does, he knows the risk however… "But if I don't stand up to him, who will?"

The question makes the former Number One jump with a spark, a tiny almost unnoticed spark of hope.

"All of our friends, teachers, and family are down there. If I don't stop this titan here then what will stop him from hurting all of them? I can't sit by as others are hurt. I want to save them all. And be able to smile." He stops keeping his gaze locked onto the alien conqueror with his back to Toshinori. But even from behind the old, wounded warrior can sense the sparkle in this kid's eye. "That's something I learned from you…All Might."

Tears…begin to slide down the old man's sunken face. He knows he can't stop this; he can't stop anything as the young man grips his watch with the convictions of a true hero.

"It's Hero Time!" That iconic flash of green becomes a flare of fire as Heatblast explodes onto the scene with a rage only comparable to that of one Katsuki Bakugou. With the will to fight raging in his heart Heatblast thrusts his arms forward in order to unleash a devastating blast. "LORD EXPLOSION MURDER!"

The resulting fire blast is a glorious display of a beam of flames with billowing heat that results in a cacophony of explosions followed by a path of melted heated metal. "When I'm done you'll be nothing but a plate of fried calamari, Vilgax!"

"Such firepower. Such tenacity." Vilgax speaks with a gentle calmness even as the eruption of flames grows ever closer. And yet his eyes, his eyes begin to gleam with an almost supernatural red glow. "Such an utter waste." Suddenly a pair of ruby red beams of pure energy project from his eyes and pierce that eruption of flames until it's nothing but clouds of wisps and embers before blasting into the Pyronite's chest and releasing a detonation of explosions of their own.

"AAAAHHH!" Somehow Heatblast feels like he's on fire as he's blasted back and away through the arena.

"Midoriya!" Toshinori cries out with his heart dying because he can't help.

Even Kraab wants to get in there. "We have to help him! He's not gonna-"

"Oh, no you don't!" Nue grabs the two of them, wrapping them up in his tendrils as he drops a heavy Water Hazard-like arm over the former hero's skinny shoulders. "You're gonna stand back and watch with the rest of us. Hehehe!"

Meanwhile, Heatblast manages to correct his course, using his flames to stabilize his unwilling flight. 'That attack, it wasn't his own. It was a Quirk!'

"Omega Beams!" Once again Vilgax unleashes his new power and another round of ruby rays charge after the alien-child.

Heatblast sees them coming and manages to rocket himself to the side much like Bakugou. "Explosive, but easy to read! Huh?!"

The beams don't explode into the ground like he expected but instead they suddenly make a sharp zig-zagging turn right at him!

"No way!"

'They're following me?!' The beams give chase, literally pursuing after him as he rockets and flies about the arena. But they don't stop, they don't fly off course, they stay hot on his flaming hot heels no matter how much he tries to juke them. 'All For One, just what kind of Quirks did you juice those Nomus with?! Just how many are there?!' He tries his ebay to counter by unleashing his own beam of condensed flames.

"Turbulent Exhale!" The front of Vilgax's respirator slides open allowing him to release a massive gale wind from his lungs so powerful that it blows the flames away.

Heatblast sidesteps the incoming wind with a grudging irritation. 'Damn it! After watching his fight against All Might I thought keeping my distance and making this a long distance fight would be to my advantage but at this rate I won't even tickle him!' His feet melt the panels as he suddenly races forth like a blazing race car. 'If I want a chance to win this then I'll have to get up close and personal!' His fist is set ablaze with a roaring passion. "RAAAGHHH!"

With an easy flick of his arm, Vilgax's tentacles catch the incoming fireball with ease, stopping him dead in his tracks along with his flames. "Pathetic. Is this really all you can do with the Omnitrix's power at your disposal."

"Let me go! I said…LET ME GO!" Heatblast's fire flares as he pulls and pries at his binds but Vilgax doesn't even flinch in the face of all this burning heat.

"It's insulting to think that such a primitive being has been slipping through my grasp after all this time." His free claw slowly inches closer towards the Omnitrix and no matter what Heatblast does he can't stop what's about to happen. "I will show you exactly what it's capable of." His single claw touches the Omnitrix's faceplate and in that moment the alien device flashes green.

And in that flash, the overwhelming fire vanishes and Izuku falls to the ground, accidentally slipping through the titan's grip. Coughing and choking on the residual heat and smoke left by his previous form. "I-I'm human? H-How did you-...? But Master Control! It's-"

"I require no Master Control function." Vilgax explains with a cold eerie vexation. "Don't you see Izuku Midoriya? You never truly understood the Omnitrix power. Only I am worthy of wielding such a weapon!"

Izuku is shaking, hesitating, as his quivering fingers subconsciously rise towards the watch.

"Go ahead. Choose another alien. This will only bring a smile to my face if you are giving this battle your all."

His nerves finally cause him to snap as he slams the Omnitrix with a deafening wail. "AAAAAAAHHHH!" And from it a giant ball of marigold rolls and races across the arena like a giant out of control bowling ball.

"So, you've chosen your Arburian Pelarota form." Vilgax comments watching closely as Cannonbolt's body rolls and rolls all across the dome.

After gaining enough speed and power the living bowling ball collides into Vilgax's side. The Grand Destroyer takes a swipe at him but his claws slide off the spinning shell with little purchase. All before Cannonbolt is off again to pick up more speed.

"I must admit it, but I never knew such a peaceful race could deliver such devastating attacks. I commend you for your creativity and adaptability."

Cannonbolt tries not to give him a chance to finish when he suddenly launches himself up into the air before plummeting down like a meteor.

The Conqueror counters, he lifts his hand and generates a golden laser shield. It's massive and see-through, hexagonal with a slightly medial-shield like design. And it holds perfectly against Cannonbolt's assault, absorbing the impact while holding the spinning Cannonbolt back. ""However, you are reckless! Your inexperience and naivety of youth limit not just your strength but your mind!" He raises his opposite fist high, and it becomes encased in a bone made gauntlet. "Bio-Fist: Marrow!" He brings the fist down onto the Arburian Pelarota's shell with a sickening crack and a thundering slam into the floor.

"Ugh…" Cannonbolt unfurls, laid dazed on the ground with his soft underbelly completely exposed. But instead of going for the kill Vilgax instead presses his claw into the Omnitrix again; causing the armored alien to revert back into his human self.

"If you had any ounce of wisdom you'd realize how futile it is to stand against me. You lack understanding of what's truly at stake here."

"Why are you doing this…?" Izuku begins to push himself off the ground as bits of blood drips out from the side of his lips. "What is this all for?"

"Something greater than yourself."

"Raaah!" Growing frustrated Izuku doesn't even take a second to look at who he dials next, because in a flash Diamondhead rises to face the challenge ahead. "Eat diamond, creep!"

"Seagle Shield!" Once again Vilgax generates another golden laser shield to intercept the rain of flesh piercing shards. "The Omnitrix may have merged with your DNA, but it does not make it yours!" With a thrust and a swing, he dissipates the attack before lashing out with his vile tentacles.

Diamondhead's too slow to evade as the tentacles grab him from all ends.

"All you've been doing is using it as a play toy! As a means to play a hero!"

Diamondhead struggles and tries to produce spikes of crystal from his hide and forearms to pierce through the tentacles. But it only spurs the Mad Titan's rage further.

"Inflame!" His muscles burn with pain but it's all a consequence of power as his muscle's strength grows tenfold; his tentacles squeeze down on the Petrosapien with such immense strength that his spikes of crystals begin to shatter and break.

"AAAAH!" Cries in pain as he's lifted into the air.

"You hold the key to a power struggle so ancient, so vast! It is beyond your feeble comprehension! Raaahh!" With a roar the Grand Destroyer throws his victim down, burying him into the ruined panels below.

"Then explain!" Diamondhead bellows after tanking that throw. "Explain what its full potential is!"

Oh he'll be very pleased to explain. "Picture an entire army. Each in command of an Omnitrix and under my command! I will be invincible! I will rule the UNIVERSE!" He holds his fists in triumph as he makes this mighty declaration to the cosmos. "And the only thing standing between me and my destiny is you."

He holds his claw out to his side as a dark inky liquid oozes from between his muscles and veins, all pouring out and converging to his palm where this inky ooze merges together in the form of a deadly onyx scimitar. "Infernal Sword!" Vilgax delivers a devastating swing to Diamondhead's side, totally bodying him to the ground where he belongs.

"AAAAAAAHHH!" Diamondhead wails in pain, as his frame goes down.

With a crack Vilgax's tentacle whips out and slashes the Omnitrix, once again reverting the poor boy back to his meek human form. The force of the whip was so strong that the boy is sent back, skidding off the ground like a pebble over water.

"No! Please!" Toshinori cries out, Kraab too is in utter shock and unable to peel his eyes away. Toshinori is desperate, however, desperate to stop this madness but he is unable to escape from Nue's bone crushing grip. "Nue! He was your friend! You have to stop this!" Toshinori begs, with tears in his eyes and a bleeding heart.

However it only seems to trigger the mutant's own fury. "He was never my friend! He never was…" There's some slight hesitation as his spare arm hovers over his pocket back pocket and caresses that old cracked watch. His expression softens as he thinks back to the watch's significance but then he buries those weird emotions down in favor of a crazed and malicious grin. "And why should I stop this? Afterall, it's everything this Quirkless loser's ever deserved. Hehehehehe!"

"Y-you're a villain…" Izuku is choking on his own mirth and bile, puking at his own feet as he struggles to get back up. "I'll stop you….! I won't let you bring harm to my home…! That's what I'm going to do…! That's what All Might would do!" A fire has been lit and it will not burn out so easily. "I am the hero known as Deku! And I will defeat you, Vilgax!"

With another slam of the watch, Wildvine sprouts into existence and unleashes a wave of vines and tentacles of his own at the monster!

But just like when he was faced with flames or death by crush, Vilgax is again unflinching before this danger. "You speak of All Might with such admiration. But of course, you would. He's the Symbol of Peace. The Number One Hero! Such grand titles those are!" His gaze unleashes another round of ruby rays, this time so fast Wildvine can't even process them as they pierce his head and incinerate the top half of his body! "Can you even understand what kind of weight titles can have?!"

Somehow through the darkness and earring pain, he can hear him, Wildvine can make out the Mad Titan's words even as his entire body regrows, although returning with a splitting headache. But just as he recovers Vilgax once again strikes the Omnitrix with another flick of his reach.

This is getting really really frustrating for Izuku before he lunges back as a jaw snapping Ripjaws.

"I am Vilgax the Conqueror of Worlds! The Mad Titan! The Gran Destroyer! You think I bestowed these titles upon myself?!" His fist morphs once again into a Bio-Fist but this time it takes on the makeup of a spiny conch shell before plowing it into the lunging Ripjaws' spine.

Ripjaws gasps for breath as he's struck and as he bounces off the ground he is greeted with whip of tentacles to the chest that sends him flying back and reverting back to human.

"You think All Might granted himself his titles?! Even All For One is known across Earth's underworld as the Symbol of Fear! No! Our titles were forged through battle! Through fire and blood! Through bitter and unrelenting SACRIFICES!"

Izuku skids and bounces off the ground but through sheer willpower he flips himself over even as he's knocked back and actually manages to grab and active the Omnitrix before falling again. And as Big Chill he finally has enough sense to think. Even for a moment to phase through the ground, however, even when intangible his back still hits the ground hard confirming that it is indeed impossible to run away. And so with no other choice, his wings unfurl and he races back into danger and releases a freezing blizzard back at his opponent.

"We bear them like trophies after conquering many great feats! After overcoming struggles that would break someone like you!"

He waits for the blue moth to get close before summoning his Infernal Sword.

Big Chill becomes intangible in response but it's useless when the dark black strikes his back and slams him down. With the bug unmoving, Vilgax lifts him up and flicks him away while simultaneously resetting the Omnitrix again. Big Chill is thrown across the arena and is sent crashing into the wall. A cloud of frost and shrapnel explode out, completely obscuring him from view as the Omnitrix reverts its host again.

"But what of you?!" Vilgax asks while waiting for his victim to reemerge. "What great feats have you accomplished?! What titles have you earned?!"

"RAWR!" Rath appears, bouncing out from the frost and dust like a vengeful beast.

"You never earned the name Deku; it was a name given to you by arbitrary means! And as for the Omnitrix," His muscles Inflame, becoming that much stronger before delivering a powerful punch to the maneater's skull.

Rath falls at the titan's feet. And is useless to stop Vilgax's tentacle from slithering under and reverting him back to a boy.

"It was never yours! It never belonged to you! You never earned its power!"

Still unwilling to surrender, Izuku lunges up, slamming the Omnitrix again, and delivers a bellowing roar as his lungs morph and expand. "RAAAAAAWR!" Humungousaur rises, towering over the likes of Vilgax as he brings his fist down like a giant hammer!

"The only one who's earned the right to wield it is MEEEE!" Summoning his Seagle Shield Vilgax stops the incoming slam before using his Turbulent Breath against the dinosaur's face.

The skin-peeling wind blast smacks into Humungousaur causing him to stumble back and be tripped up by Vilgax's tentacles, causing him to fall.

Toshinori and Kraab let out sharp gasps as the Negative Nine smirk and jeer, sensing the end of this match. They can almost already see the blood that will soon be pooling at the bottom of this dark hellish-arena.

But much to their surprise and even Vilgax's, Humungousaur is not down and out yet. "I'M…NOT…DONE YET. I…WON'T…GIVE UP! NOT EVER!" With a painful howl the nine-foot behemoth begins to rise albeit with shaky legs and an even shakier constitution. But even so his body begins to grow and grow, slowly but surely towering over the Mad Titan as he takes on his gigantic form. "RAAAAAWWWRRR!"

"Such spirit. I must admit it but you remind me of someone…" Or rather a version of a certain someone. "He was a naive fool as well." Until that fateful day that everything changed, and a new being was born from the ashes.

Ignoring the growing behemoth at his front, Vilgax turns his attention to his most loyal lackey. "Psyphon, now is the time!"

Psyphon, for once, does not argue or complain instead a cruel smile stretches across his black lips and he begins typing away at his wrist pad. Resulting in a section of nearby panels to slide away and begin to reveal some other strange machine.

Vilgax awaits its arrival, however, his moment is interrupted by the roar of the behemoth-sized Humungousaur.

"RAAAAAAWR!" His giant fist comes hurtling downward, like a meaty meteor that's soul desire is to crush those under its weight.

"Inflame! Bio-Fist: Fangs! Seagle Shield!" Vilgax releases a combination of Quirks, his muscles flare, his fist becomes coated in animalistic fangs and teeth with the Seagle Shield projecting from his fist.

The two opposing forces collide into a brilliant shockwave of gold and green aftershocks, both unwilling to back down. However, it's too much, the mixing of these Quirks are too great even for the likes of such a beast. As Vilgax gives a mighty roar of triumph as he his burning arm extends forth and breaks through Humungousaur's assault. "RAAAAAAAAGH!"

Humungousaur's fist is thrusted aside, and he can only watch as this amalgamation of Quirks barrels into his side, right in the same spot that All Might's own wound sits. And he unleashes a blood splattering roar as the golden glowing fang-bared fist digs into his stomach. "RWAAAAAAAA!"

Toshinori witnesses the fall in slow-motion, he sees the dinosaur's knees give out from under such weight and pain, and he falls, collapsing backwards like a giant redwood chopped down far before its end. The resounding fall is dome shattering and ship shaking.

And like salt on a wound the Omnitrix tiredly times out. *BEEP! Beep! Beep…*

The giant is swallowed up in a flash of red, vanishing, and leaving a bloodied and bruised Izuku Midoriya lying in his previous form's massive imprint as he lays there motionless and in defeat.

With such a behemoth down Vilgax has ample time to inspect his newly arrived weapon. It's another large device, with a cylindrical design with a green globe on its top while it's being stood up on a set of claw-like legs. His tentacles wrap around the Extraction device gripping it at its center while a single tentacle clings to the control handle. He then marches over the still conscious boy, looming over him like a giant.

"You-*Cough!*" Still sprawled on the ground, Izuku gags while trying to deliver one last act of defiance. "The Omnitrix-*Cough!* will never be yours…*Cough!* It's bound to me *Cough!* DNA…"

His act of defiance is admirable but oh so amusing to the Grand Destroyer. "For some time now, I have been wondering what kind of legacy you would leave behind when you're gone. But now I know."

Suddenly he thrusts the device down at Izuku, almost as if he's going to impale him on those claw like stands but instead of striking flesh the claws pierce the ground around the boy's left arm, thus surrounding the Omnitrix. "When my work is complete. Not a soul will remember your name. No one will know of the pitiful being known as Deku! Not one being in this entire universe will call you a HERO!"

The machine bursts to life and suddenly the Omnitrix unleashes a sphere of green light that propels the device back.

"Gaah-RAAAAGH!" Not so easily deterred,Vilgax brings the device back down, breaking through the orb of light with shattering strength. And from the center of the device's base a large needle-like mechanism jets out and locks itself to the Omnitrix faceplate causing an array of green lightning to discharge across the dome.

"AAaah! AAAAAAAH! AAAAAAAAAAAHHHH!" It hurts, it hurts so much, the Omnitrix…it feels like his own heart is being ripped right out of his chest! That every surge of energy is lighting his blood on fire causing him to choke and tear up as his ears begin to ring. But even through the ringing he can hear his own wails, his own cries, but not just his there is an echo and an echo of a scream as if the Omnitrix itself was screaming in pain. "AAAAAAAAAAAHHHH!"

"NO! Stop It! PLEASE, SPARE HIM!" Toshinori thrashes, or at least tries to, in a desperate attempt to escape Nue's grasp.

But neither he nor Kraab have the strength to help. "He's just a kid! STOOOP!"

One final wail pierces their ears as the Omnitrix's band begins to split and it struggles to stay bound to the boy's flesh. "AAAAAAAAAAAHHHH!"

"YOUNG MIDORIYA!"

With a chilling snap the Omnitrix is forcibly released and inhaled right into the extraction device before ejected out and into the glowing globe at the end of the machine. And just like that the dome falls to silence as the Omnitrix is left in suspended animation within its new prison.

It. Is. Done.

"Yes. Yes! Finally! HAHAHAHAHAAAA!"

Vilgax's laughter rages across the entire ship as the Negative Nine watch on with either great interest or chilling fear. Nue grins, releasing Toshinori who falls to his knees in despair and so too does Kraab fall. Both unable to look away from the weak, teary eyed boy who lays motionless after being dealt such a defeat by the hands of Vilgax the Conqueror of Worlds.

"After all this time! The Omnitrix, is MIIIIIINE!"

---

Like our dear heroes, I hope you all have been transported away to an unknown world that's full of terrifying truths but also wonderful new adventures! Well, I guess in Deku and All Might's case it's not so wonderful now is it? Will our heroes be able to escape Vilgax's ship? Will their faith in each other continue to fall or rise? Who was All Might's jailcell neighbor? Are there others coming to save them?! And what is to become of the Omnitrix now?! These are all important questions!

Let's all find out together! Next time!

*So, Vilgax has Quirks of his own now…SURPRISE! Now most are variants of his UAF powerset but with plenty (A lot) of change ups. In my defense over half his powers in that era was some variation of a laser beam and I thought that was…boring. So coming up with new powers was the obvious solution! And here's a list to show what his new powers are (you can pretend that Present Mic is announcing all these):

1. Omega Beams = he shoots out a pair of ruby rays that can change direction mid flight in order to pursue any target he wishes!

2. Turbulent Exhale = allows him to generate a powerful whirlwind that can knock any house down!

3. Bio-Fist = turns Vilgax's arm into a battle gauntlet that's made of any material he chooses. The catch is that the material has to be a product created through biological means such as bone, coral, teeth, bark, shells, horns, feathers, fur, and more!

4. Seagle Shield = a transparent laser shield with a golden shine! Able to stop any and all incoming attacks!

5. Inflame = causes his muscle cells to burn and thus expand his strength tenfold!

6. Infernal Sword = summoning an inky darkness from within, Vilgax can use this black ink to create a massive sword of destruction!

7. ?

8. ?

9. ?

Hey, I gotta have some surprises for you guys. I already know what the last 3 Quirks are. But revealing them now wouldn't be fun at all. Well at least not for me ;)

*There were a lot of Easter Eggs/Cameos in this chapter. Especially in that opening part. And I don't just mean the Ben Ten Classic references and such. Now if you don't get these references/cameos, then don't worry there are links over on the AO3 site for every reference when they appear.

In any case, this what we had today: a Symbiote from Marvel Comics, Starro and a Thanagarian from DC comics, a Yautja from the Predator movies, a Xenomorph from Aliens franchise, a Borg from StarTrek, the Space Chicken from Courage the Cowardly the Dog, a Triceraton and a Kraang from TMNT, a Decepticon from Transformers (but which one?), a Boglodite from MIB, a Gromflomite from Rick & Morty, the two Tallest from the Invader Zim TV show, and Dr. Hamsterviel from Disney's Lilo & Stitch.

*If you were confused about these two devices that Vilgax used in this chapter then this should help clear that up. The Charlotte Project machine was the power extracting machine Vilgax used in the Ben Ten Ultimate Alien series. Which allowed him to take and transfer aliens' powers to himself.

Then the Extraction Device he used to remove the Omnitrix is from the classic Ben Ten series. Kevin and Vilgax used it the same way after Ben got a hold of the Master Control function. I don't think either machine has an official name. If they do, can someone please tell me? Thanks

Responses for "Guest" reviewers from Ch.79:

Atom king: This chapter is everything I could hope for, finally the truth has been shown to the UA pro heroes and students their shock reaction were were exactly how my picture with them first going to denial as soon going to acceptance.

Though at the start of chapter with Nezu talking with some earth government agents, wow I always knew they would be corrupt this takes the cake, I'm getting an really big bad feeling about them I think we should keep an eye them.

Now I can't wait for the next chapter especially with the new plumber recruits, I hope to help them that nezu make go though an rush training program so they be familiar to the plumber gear and technology.

I'm also curious on who's else is going to join in the rescue party, I honestly want to be surprised.

Now with izuku and all might they're both prisoners of ilgax, I'm imagining All might thinking that they're on regular ship that he would come up plans on how to escape but since Izuku knows they're in spaceship he would be annoyed by them and shut them down I think it be funny especially with all might reaction seeing outer space.

Now one more thing my favorite part of the chapter is with the alien citizens going up to pro heroes and asking for their autographs and pictures I think it's sweet and it shows the pros that aliens are people too and they worth protecting something i hope the other heroes learn too.

Guardian-Sigil: Oh you definitely need to keep an eye on them :)

Now we'll meet back up with our newest cadets next time for sure. For now we needed time to catch up with Deku

I really liked that scene with the aliens too. I thought it'd be a nice cute moment

---

Guest: Hombre, otro genial capítulo, no puedo esperar a ver un all might vs vilgax, o incluso un midoriya cambio al azar vs vilgax.

Esos combates podrían arrasar una ciudad fácilmente

Guardian-Sigil: You ask and you shall receive. You got both and I hope it was everything you were hoping for. And if not, well this is only the start of what's to come

---

Atom king (again): I just thought of something what if the Hero Public Safety Commission creates their version of the plumbers but more bias against aliens, they target the alien community and hunt them down, imprisoned them and deport them out of the planet against their will and they will need an public face for them someone to get the support and backing from the human population and that face is Endeavor, he would the second to last big villain that Izuku has face before all for one, as Izuku will fight for the right for all lives be them human or aliens.

What you think?

Guardian-Sigil: It's not bad at all, but the Forever Knights are a thing. Also I have…other plans for the Hero Commission's antics.

---

drako: I don't know about you, but it seems hypocritical of Bakugo to tell Hisashi that he abandoned Izuku, when he did the same to him when he became an abuser.

ps: that's how I hate the bakugo character, I know nobody asked but I still had to say it

Guardian-Sigil: Fair enough and I acknowledge it. But humans are hypocritical by nature

---

DeadCool14: That omake was adorable. I was kinda expecting that they would get him something Sumo Slammers related as a gift but all that stuff is nice too. Shocked about Bebop and Rocksteady showing up, weird how they didn't mention in the Road Trip Arc that they already meet before. Nice IzuOcha moment at the end there

Ok, chili fries have been introduced; now, will Albedo be obsessed with them or with katsudon? And speaking of which, would we get that scene with Ben and Julie studying but with Deku and Momo? It would be hilarious if she ended up loving chili fries too

Will Sumo Slammers make an appearance? Like when they get to the dorms, Deku's room has Summo Slammers merch?

Maybe he used to be a fan as a kid but grew out of it, but after revisiting it his love for the franchise rekindled lol

Would Kendo be an incognito Sumo Slammers fan? That would be funny and a good way for her and Deku to bond. Maybe throw Pony Tsunotori there too?

What happened to all of Deku's All Might memorabilia? Is it all still in his room, and would he take it to the dorms? And would he also put some of it back after this?

Would Deku learn to use Upchuck's loogies differently? Like splitting them into a scatter shot, or the slime?

When Deku fights Vilgax, will he break Rath's claws? And would they be stronger when they grow back? Because if they do, then I can see him starting to break and pull them out to get them tougher and sharper but it's super painful; like Iida does with his engines

Have you reaad Team-Up Missions? Check out mangatoto MHA Team-Up Missions; could get some good stuff from it

How did you learn enough Japanese to create names for characters, like Rojo?

Will you mention Shag Carpeting? That was Grandpa Max and Verdona's favorite band

Would you do that Across the Spiderverse scene, when Miles tells his dad to get off his ass but with Deku and Hisashi? Like Deku becomes a new alien and Hisashi doesn't know it's him?

You can use these videos for comedy: The best interaction in RvB, Red vs Blue feat. Chupathingys 2

This was awesome! Definitely worth the wait! I loved the talk between Ochako and her dad (pls give them names), and was that a JoJo reference I saw in there?

So how much does Inko know about the Todoroki situation? Did she meet the other three? Also how close would you say Inko and Rei were?

I honestly expected at least Aizawa to know, but this was for sure a surprise, also weird that Hound Dog wasn't here.

Those interactions were adorable. Will you add background characters from 5YL? They appear in these Dum Doodles videos. There is a Tetramand magician with an emo Nemuina assistant, an Ectonurite cabbage salesman, an elderly Opticoid who was an elderly Vulpimancer as a dog, etc; they're great

Honestly I expected more of the Class than this to find out at this moment; like Tokoyami, Shoji, Tsu and Shinso, other that will definitely find out later on are Hatsume, Jirou and Kaminari, and probably Tooru, Tetsutetsu and Kendo

Surprised you had Mitsuki find out, but given her son was involved in the whole thing it makes sense, but where was Masaru?

I felt pretty intimidated about One Piece's length as well, but I seriously think you still should, to quote the show itself "If the path looks too easy, then you're doing it wrong". It's supposed to feel like we're going on this long ass adventure with them. And yeah the fillers can be a huge problem but it can be fixed, just look up "animefillerlist one piece", they'll tell you which episodes are fillers, you can watch it in chunks from time to time, like I did; I started a few months ago and I watched 276 (that's not counting the fillers), I could have watched more but that's mostly because I procrastinated and stopped watching after a bit XD. But seriously, don't be discouraged by how long it is, and I'm not saying it because of the sake of references but because I don't want people to miss out on experiencing this master piece. After you've been watching for a while it gets easier

Deku could use the grappling hook when he's knocked off his hoverboard, or in combat by pulling on his enemies, either to pull them towards him or trip them, and it could help for when he is in his board and has to make a sharp turn or something. Plus it would be neat if, from that, Deku 9,000's upgraded version of those would be like Miguel's web shooters from ATSV; and a holographic shield like in Next Avengers: Heroes of Tomorrow

Oh yeah giving them info on the most powerful device in 5 galaxies to some humans in the goverment will never go wrong

There is this bad DC comic called Heroes In Crisis, and there's this line that is used in very terrible context but I think it could work at if used right: "Bros before Heroes"

Who do you think were in Hisashi and Endeavor's class at UA? Also do you think they were in Class A or B?

Are you gonna do Hot Fuzz references when Rook appears?

Will you implement the weaknesses to Shinso's Brainwashing? That people with strong enough emotions or wills can break through it? Like with Gigantomachia

Guardian-Sigil: I do plan on addressing Sumo Slammers in the future. Just trust me. It's gonna be good.

About Bebop and Rocksteady showing up, I know this takes place before the Road Trip BUT come on. It's not like I had this planned way back when I wrote that chapter. And if it makes you feel better we can just say that they didn't recognize the turtle on their hood.

Still debating what Albedo will be obsessed with. And a scene that resembles Ben and Julie would be funny.

What happened to all of Deku's All Might memorabilia? Not sure yet…TBD

Would Deku learn to use Upchuck's loogies differently? Like splitting them into a scatter shot, or the slime? - YES

When Deku fights Vilgax, will he break Rath's claws? — well as you saw, no

Have you reaad Team-Up Missions? — I have

How did you learn enough Japanese to create names for characters, like Rojo? - I didn't. I just used a kanji translate website and cherrypick words and names

Will you mention Shag Carpeting? — I'll try, did I not mention them in Purple Rain chapter?

Would you do that Across the Spiderverse scene, when Miles tells his dad to get off his ass but with Deku and Hisashi? Like Deku becomes a new alien and Hisashi doesn't know it's him? – That would be hard to pull considering the Omnitroix sits on his chest

This was awesome! Definitely worth the wait! I loved the talk between Ochako and her dad (pls give them names), and was that a JoJo reference I saw in there? — I will and perhaps

So how much does Inko know about the Todoroki situation? Did she meet the other three? Also how close would you say Inko and Rei were? — You'll have to wait and see

I honestly expected at least Aizawa to know, but this was for sure a surprise, also weird that Hound Dog wasn't here. — Eh, he's a guidance counselor and not part of the higher ups of the school staff like the nameless hero teacher that sits with the other teachers in the Sports Festival

Those interactions were adorable. Will you add background characters from 5YL? — Still need to read/watch 5YL. Been busy

Honestly I expected more of the Class than this to find out at this moment; like Tokoyami, Shoji, Tsu and Shinso, other that will definitely find out later on are Hatsume, Jirou and Kaminari, and probably Tooru, Tetsutetsu and Kendo — That's too many characters to write believable reactions for

Surprised you had Mitsuki find out, but given her son was involved in the whole thing it makes sense, but where was Masaru? — yeah, she was not originally planned but it made the most sense

There is this bad DC comic called Heroes In Crisis, and there's this line that is used in very terrible context but I think it could work at if used right: "Bros before Heroes" - Hahahaha! I can work with that

Who do you think were in Hisashi and Endeavor's class at UA? Also do you think they were in Class A or B? - They were in Class 1-A. And as for their classmates and teacher. I have plans for all of that to explore when I eventually do an Endeavor/Hisashi Origin arc/chapter.

Are you gonna do Hot Fuzz references when Rook appears? — Which reference was that again?

Will you implement the weaknesses to Shinso's Brainwashing? That people with strong enough emotions or wills can break through it? Like with Gigantomachia — Yes but I'm gonna add my own twist and upgrades to things too

---

Grimm: Oh and I'm missing one more thing, from what I see Midoriya won't be able to face the negative nine, which disappoints me a bit because he's always been a fan of a hero facing the group that was created to face him as the six sinister with spiderman (I blame spectacular spiderman for his fights) but it is consistent with the story, also I don't know why, but I feel that malware will be the most conflictive of the group, since as albedo said in alien force, both want the omnitrix, that It's already a bad alliance, henzu doesn't care about the omnitrix, he wants revenge on Midoriya, sunder... I really don't know there, he wants the omnitrix but I doubt he'll grab it with vilgax in the middle, as long as I pay him just like sevenseven, ragnarok I feel that he will flee as little as possible to stop being a slave, red I feel that he will be the first to fall, he is not weak but he is not the strongest of the group either, the roof will be faithful but I feel that he will be melted now that We know that Todoroki will be in the rescue. And by the way, will they use the name of the nine negatives? You made reference to it but they didn't use it per se, since the Tvtrope lists them as the Vilgax faction and I wanted to know.

Guardian-Sigil: I love the Spectacular Spider-Man's way of running the Sinister Six! And come on, I make a negative Nine and not have Deku fight that at least once? Oh you of little faith. You wound me!

Although it's not as long as I would've liked but if you know how the Sinister Six operates then you might have an idea of the future for this group

And yes, with this chapter they are going by the name of the Negative Nine

---

Metal Lizard: Well now that some of Deku's friends know that aliens are real I wonder if they will become Plumbers after this Arc? also love the Aliens in this chapter like the Megawatts ML-E Pax and all the other Aliens.

Guardian-Sigil: Yes and no, it depends on the character. Some might take on a more Gran Torino like approach

---

BlueRanger-Lyric: Wow, this is an amazing chapter, I love how you handled the rollercoaster of emotions and revelations, and I was very surprised how Shoto and Bakugo broke the ice and got everyone to reveal the truth to everyone, and I was honestly surprised how many people they revealed the truth to, I mean now almost half of Class 1A, all of U.A's staff, Inko, Mitsuki, even Detective Tsukauchi now knows, and no doubt All Might will learn about them the hard way, that's so many people who now know in a short span of time, though this does leave me curious about how things will play out with all of those that now know, especially regarding U.A now that all the Staff are in on the secret, will they become Plumber Agents too? And how will they go about their day, especially if they visit the alien town, and now that Inko knows the truth, I'm suddenly picturing Chopper living in the Midoriya household, helping with chores and everything, and I imagine Chopper ether being nice to Inko but not to everyone else, or he's his usual self with everyone, and I'm also wondering how well Kraab will settle in the Midoriya household too, overall, I'm looking forward to all the changes that'll come in the future~

Guardian-Sigil: Well I'm hoping I was able to match that rollercoaster ride again. A lot is gonna change for the characters. And yes Chopper will now be able to be the Midoriya family's cat. Because come on, if R2D2 is as loyal as a dog then Chopper is as much of a pain as a cat.

---

Guest: I wonder if after this Arc, ether Izuku or Ochaco realise their feelings for the other and start developing strong feelings for each other after the current Arc, I still hope those two start developing strong feelings for each other soon, especially since they deserve each other~

Guardian-Sigil: It would be cute

---

BlueRanger-Lyric (again): Oh, and as for your Halloween Special thing, I have an idea that you can use ether this year or next year, if you are familiar with the game "Among Us" a Futurama episode named "Murder on the Planet Express" and the Anime "Danganronpa" they what if you did a story about an Alien Shapeshift that poses as someone or one character at a time and they hunt the characters one by one and "Removes" them, and the characters have to figure out who the poser is, especially when no one is sure who to trust, especially everyone accuses others of being the poser, but they try to end the nightmare before it's too late, so what do you think about that?

Guardian-Sigil: Not bad at all. I'll put that in the pocket and save it for another time I think.

---

Guest: Ok now that you Mentioned the Triceratons they need to be in this story in an active role. I loved them in TMNT 2012.

Guardian-Sigil: Ta~Da~! They're here albeit as an extended cameo but still

---

Thunder Dragon: This is it. And if Izuku has to work his tail off to save the universe after this I would not be surprised. Also poor Inko and Hisashi. If these parents have not been through the world going to chaos then they are made of some strong stuff.

Also Izuku you are facing the demon of space. Good luck buddy. Help is on the way.

I have an idea. I would love to have Vilgax reveal the secrets of Aliens being real to not only stoke fear about Aliens on Earth as Vilgax exposes them and this has them scared.

Now this leads to another suggestion. As much as I hate to say it but All Might has got to go. Have Toshinori sacrifice his life to save Izuku and also cover the others retreat and uses the last of his power to hold back Vilgax which costs him his life as he dies at the claws of Vilgax.

This needs to happen as Ochaco needs to find her own way and also realize what On For All her Quirk given to her by All Might has a dark side and she has to find her own way. Also you can have Izuku realize that All Might was a hero as he died to save lives including his own but he was also all to human as at the end of the day; he was just a man who had his triumphs and tragedies. And the world realizes this and everyone goes nuts without their protector and people are terrified about what lies beyond the stars and people just go nuts.

Now this is where things get crazy. I would love to see you tackle parts of the show that were never covered. Such as the Alien Dragons. Check the Ben 10 Wiki and their is something you can use involving Dragons as an example.

For example there are also Mythical Dragons in Ben 10 Classic Continuity living on Earth along with Alien Dragons. Oh and the Mythical Dragons are in the Ben 10 2016 Reboot now as well. Yes I am a Dragon Nerd, and proud of it.

Here is what I could find from their. A sect of Forever Knights would stop at nothing to destroy dragons. Dwayne McDuffie in Alien Force once claimed more of this species would be seen in future episodes, but this did not happen and there were no plans to revisit this species in Omniverse because no one wanted to revisit that arc.

Here are sources from that web-sight. It is called Ben 10 Planet.

Crew Statements

Derrick J. Wyatt

File:Dragon Aliens Different From Mythical Dragons.

File:Mythical Dragons Exist.

File:Dragons Excluded in OV.

Here is my last request. Maybe Azmuth gets involved as Izuku's mentor and to start that out when Izuku learns that the Omnitrix can restore alien species maybe he works to find a home land for Aliens who have lost their planet(Cannon Bolt species anyone?) and restore extinct alien species seeing as Izuku is trying to use the Watch as one of the ways it was originally intended to be used.(I am watching and waiting for you Highbreed) this gets Azmuth's approval.

Guardian-Sigil: There's a lot to look forward to. A lot will change but some things (story events) will stay the same…for now. There's a lot in store and I can't really get into it in fear of spoilers. Like the fates of characters…

---

Guest: I have questions. Where is All Might? Will Izuku lose the Omnitrix? Will Vilgax reveal the secrets of Aliens being real to not only stoke fear about Aliens on Earth as Vilgax exposes them and this has the planet earth scared?

Can you create new adventures? I would love to see where Izuku uses the Omnitrix to bring back Canonbolt's species and gather the survivors home to their restored home world as Arburian Pelarotas are believed to be extinct from the universe, but it wouldn't surprise Eugene Son one of the shows creators if there are a few alive somewhere.

This is confirmed by another of the shows creators as Derrick J. Wyatt believed that there are supposedly a few survivors scattered across the galaxy.

Maybe Izuku also does this to the other species that were wiped out over the years?

Are you gonna do Hot Fuzz references when Rook appears?

Are you actually going to kill All Might?!

And here is what I expect will happen First Izuku has the Omnitrix taken off and is in a deep depression as it seems like his dream is just about dead and then things get worse.

All Might versus Vilgax and All For One. Now to make things rather tragic and show that the torch has been passed on for good and maybe just to deliver that extra emotional punch All Might dies to the claws of Vilgax after All Might takes out All for One after nearly exhausting One For All. Then Boom! All Might is attacked by Vilgax and his Alien Drones and badly wound him to the point of near death. But All Might even though he ends up realizing that he is pretty much doomed is not willing to go out like a bitch. All Might ends badly wounding Vilgax to make things right and to save Izuku but then boom! Before All Might dies the Truth gets out but is warped by Vilgax using his drones to control the media to terrify the populace of Earth and it is spread out across the world. The Secret is out! Aliens are real and some are hiding on Earth! And then to drive the knife in Vilgax kills All Might.

But Izuku gets back the Omnitrix and realizing that All Might died to save him and then he sends Vilgax packing even though he is not willing to kill him. Now after that battle everyone goes crazy as it was live and it was broadcast across the planet!

First off maybe we can the world's government create a task force that act as the world police and this gives a bit of politically charged edge to the story and their purpose is that this task force is meant to contain what the world thinks are Alien Criminals but the organization also contains innocent Aliens just trying to live on Earth and some of the Alien Refugees but this task does not care and is not willing to give nonhumans Their time in court or even due process of law. See Prisoner 775 and his debut episode.

Guardian-Sigil: I have answers! (Assuming you read the newest chapter already)

All Might is on Vilgax's ship. Izuku does lose the Omnitrix. Vilgax does technically reveal aliens but only to All Might.

New adventures? This is the guy who came up with a Road Trip arc. You think I don't have more fun stuff planned? ;)

What is Hot Fuzz?! You're the second person to ask this! And which references?!

Kill All Might? Now that would be telling.

Your guess was somewhat right. Izuku loses the Omnitrix at the end.

Also if Vilgax was gonna reveal aliens. Why not do that on the planet's surface and have his ship show up in orbit?

Guest: Why didn't you mention the Klingon empire? They are one the most most iconic space empires in history.

Guardian-Sigil: I'm a Star Wars nerd first. I literally just started StarTrek lower Decks as my first piece of StartTrek media ever. I'm learning. But hey there was a Borg hidden in that opening scene though for ya

---

Guest: In a future chapter you should have the plummer cadets in class learning about the current state of the galaxy. Like the various, powers, borders, and cultural differences. I think it would be fun to see something like that and give us an idea of who all the major players are in your story.

Guardian-Sigil: Perhaps as an Omake

---

Dinobot: I liked the recations on everyone here and I can only imagine the rest of Class 1-A reacting to learn that Aliens are real and hey you don't have to be nervous I still enjoy what you do here.

Guardian-Sigil: Thanks for the kind words.

---

Guest: You should include a race like the Gorn (Strange New Worlds) or the Magog (Andromeda). A race that is feared more than any other in the universe that eats the flesh of other intelligent species and lives off the destruction of worlds.

Guardian-Sigil: I'll look into them

---

I'm Hellboy: Well if there's a chance that there could be charaters that could apper for your OVA or not but I'll just name some to give you some ideas.

Entoma Vasilissa Zeta-Overlord

Chernobog- The Witcher

Morbius-Marvel

Sabrewulf-Killer Instinct

Astalos-Monster Hunter

Skullcrawler-Monsterverse

Freddy Fazbear-Five Nights at Freddy's

Huggy Wuggy-Poppy Playtime

Guardian-Sigil: Thanks for the suggestions. I'll see what I can do. Although I do plan on adding a minor villain character that's based of FNF.

---

Guest: That moment between humans and aliens seemed beautiful to me, I think it is one of the most beautiful and tender moments of your story so far, you could feel the union between the characters and the expectations that the aliens had for those who despite not knowing it, were their protectors. The people who guaranteed that they had the peaceful lives they hoped to find on Earth.

First off please implement the Ben 10 TV Movies and maybe you can use more story ideas from Ben 10 Alien Force and Ben 10 Ultimate Alien Force. You have to implement episodes from those series when Izuku has face the heavy hitters of space and also darker threats.

And also you need to look at the TV movies.

Ben 10: Secret of the Omnitrix (2007): Ben and Gwen travel through outer space in order to find the creator of the Omnitrix after a fight causes the device's self-destruct sequence to activate, which could potentially destroy the universe if not fixed. Though it premiered during the middle of the show's final season, it serves as the canon Grand Finale to the original series.

Ben 10: Race Against Time (2007): An Alternate Universe Live-Action Adaptation that takes place shortly following the events of the original series. Ben must go up against a new foe named Eon, who is after the Omnitrix in order to start an Alien Invasion.

Ben 10: Alien Swarm (2009): The second live-action adaptation, this time based on Alien Force. Ben, Gwen and Kevin find themselves caught up in a conspiracy involving alien nanochips that hold a dark secret that could lead to a world takeover. Unlike the previous live-action film, this one is canon and is referenced directly during the events of Alien Force.

Ben 10: Destroy All Aliens (2012): A CGI film set shortly after the events of the original series and later made canon to the original continuity. The Omnitrix once more gets damaged during a fight and must be repaired. While handling the problem of the malfunctioning watch causing Ben to randomly teleport around the world, the characters must also deal with a bounty hunter that wants the device.

Ben 10 Versus the Universe: The Movie (2020): A movie set in the 2016 continuity. Ben goes to try and take on Vilgax in space but ends up stranded in the Null Void. As he tries to find a way out, Gwen and Max must team with Kevin to protect the world during his absence.

Now speaking of more Ben 10 elements I have been doing some digging and looking into more Ben 10 Media that you can use for story ideas. For example their are Ben 10 Comics.

Cartoon Network Action Packs (2006-2012): Strips collected as Ben 10 Classics

Cartoon Network Fusionfall (2007)

Ben 10 Alien Force: Doom Dimension (2010)

Ben 10: Ultimate Alien (2010)

Ben 10: Omniverse - No Laughing Matter (2012)

Ben 10 Omniverse (2013-2014)

Ben 10 (2013-2014)

Ben 10: The Truth Is Out There (2019)

Ben 10: For Science (2019)

Ben 10: Mecha Madness (2019)

Ben 10: The Manchester Mystery (2020)

Ben 10: The Creature From Serenity Shore (2020)

Guardian-Sigil: I really loved that scene too. I kinda wish i extended it but I think it was just the right size to hit home.

---

Guest: Not gonna lie I'm a little disappointed Shinso wasn't among the recruits hopefully we'll see him soon.

Guardian-Sigil: I did consider him, but I do plan to give him more moments to shine

---

Guest: Have u seen Guardians of the Galaxy 3 if so would u consider doing the "Don't sleep till Brooklyn" scene. It'd be so fun Izuku leading the charge after he's rescued like "we end this now" and the others follow him

Guardian-Sigil: Of course I've seen it! My name is Sigil-GUARDIAN. But in any case I do wanna add a scene like that but I do have to make sure it works. I do have at least one Guardians of the Galaxy scene planned for next time

---

Guest: Why do I got a feeling that tsuyu is going to get him the biggest hug of all

Guardian-Sigil: I think everyone's gonna give him a big old huge

---

Guest: I wanted bakugo mom tear aizawa a new one in the cannon version he knows how to bring the mood down during the dorms

Guardian-Sigil: I guess we'll see what happens later

DeadCool14: Fun Fact: Vilgax's ship is called the Chimeran Hammer

Do you think Deku would be really good at skipping rocks now? Like, I can imagine he practiced a lot after all these years and be an absolute boss at it. Oh! What if in SOTO, he actually skips Vilgax when he throws him into space?

Would Vilgax have his UAF weapons as trophies? Like, the Shield of Seagle, the Ruby Ray of Rouleau, his sword and that blaster he always had and was shown in the promo art but was never shown using it, they all belonged to a champion from the planets he's conquered

Since Ochako is going with Nighteye, then will Deku go with Ryukyu, or someone else? Also, do you think the class would ask him about what heroes they should intern with?

Would Grey Matter have a Jimmy Neutron-style Brain Blast?

Fun Fact: Stinkfly weights about two tons with slime sacs, and his tail is super sensitive and works like an antennae. Also, he can use his slime to either put out fires or make explosions when comined with fire

You should check out the trivia bits on the wiki pages for the species, they have a lot of cool fun facts like that. Both for the transformations and the predator species

Like for example: You know that suit Ben and Gwen used when sneaking into Incarcecon, that was a Lepadopterran costume, which was all that was left from an Arburian party

When the Omnitrix recalibrates, will Deku still mistransform? Or at least do it less often? Because if he does, then I think he should try to transform again at least once, and then stay as that alien if it doesn't work to not run out the Omnitrix's charge

Do you think Gutrot could use nitroglycerin like Bakugou? Or would that not work, because it's stated that Gutrot only works with chemical gases

Guardian-Sigil: Chimeran Hammer. Good to know, because I seriously forgot until this review. So thanks!

I would say Deku is very good at skipping rocks now. Especially with his aim

And assuming you read the latest chapter. Vilgax sort of does and sort-of doesn't have his UAF weapons/powers now. I mean most of his powers are based off the UAF ones although most of the UAf powers were just some variation on laser beams.

Deku is going to intern under someone else.

Yes. Grey Matter or at least Brainstorm will have a Brain Blast like moment

I wouldn't have Gutrot outright steal another's power set. It's kinda the same reason why Ben never turned into an Anodite

Number: Regresó el hijo pródigo...

Espero que hayas tenido un buen viaje

Guardian-Sigil: I did have a good trip, thanks

Marvelfan4life: Seeing as you are such a fan of superheroes here is a challenge for you.

It is a Dragon Ball and Marvel Comics crossover.

The Marvelous Monkey King Part 0: Character depictions. All the characters are as cannon like as possible but they also grow for the better. Son Goku eventually becomes the character we see in the original English dub after growing as a person. Son Goku is also given proper credit for all his heroics. But the major exceptions are Raditz who along with Nappa and Vegeta turn good.

The Marvelous Monkey King Part 1: The World of the Story. The Universe of the story has elements of the main Dragon Ball Universe with the Kai's and all of their Alien races but also the Marvel Cosmic Hierarchy, with all the Gods of Legend in the universe of Marvel as well as Cosmic Entities, and Marvel's alien races along with whatever elements you bring from Earth 616 in Marvel and various other Marvel universes for whatever world you want to make.

But their are some changes to the Dragon Ball Universe going into later Dragon Ball and Dragon Ball Z.

1. The position of Guardian of Earth is one that the Gods of Earth's Legends created to act as a messenger as well as be their emissary and ambassador to the Kai's and the other cosmic realms and to the other world's Gods. And he is also meant to be the protector of Earth but is still mortal hence why their is more than one but they all have God Ki.

Shin and Old Kai are not the only surviving Supreme Kai's of Goku's universe. The Supreme Kai Avatars in Dragon Ball Heroes are here. They are Shin's juniors. After the fight with Kid Buu the Supreme Kai's that were absorbed are restored and train the new generation of Kai's. Between the end of Z and the beginning of Dragon Ball GT they reach Super Saiyan Blue levels of power. The Supreme Kai is meant to create new worlds and races to seed the universe they inhabit with life and they have to report to the Living Tribunal.

Dabura and The Demon Gods in the Dragon Ball Xenoverse and Dragon Ball Heroes games are here for the events of the Buu Saga.

2. Their are no Gods of Destruction. Galactus fills that role. Their are also no Dragon Ball Angels as their are actual Biblical Angels in Marvel Comics as well as Angels in the Tenth Realm. Their is no Xeno or Grand Priest as the One Above All and the Living Tribunal fill that role.

3. Bardock convinced the Saiyans of Freiza's attempt to wipe them out and there are enough survivors for the Universe Seven Saiyans to not be on the edge of extinction or need to breed with other species to survive. The Saiyans reform and work to get revenge on Freiza.

Bardock becomes a mixture of his Episode of Bardock incarnation and his Dragon Ball Super incarnation with his powers and character development.

4. The main cast are children when you start the story and become teenagers when you go into the later parts of Dragon Ball. All the main characters are in their twenties when you go into Dragon Ball Z and their thirties when you go into Dragon Ball Super. In Dragon Ball GT they reach their 40's.

5. Frieza's Empire is a political equal to the Kree and the Skrull empires and so is the Galactic Patrol.

The Marvelous Monkey King Part 2: The Adventures of Son Goku. Son Goku has to crash on Earth but is raised in Kun-Lung until he decides to go into the world. Son Goku's starting adventures are the early days of Dragon Ball but it is both Bulma and Betsy Braddock who seek out the Dragon Balls and that is how they meet Goku. Son Goku gradually becomes aware of the larger world of the Marvel Universe in his travels. Goku after his first adventure meets the various super hero teams of Earth and then goes down the latter events of Dragon Ball. Goku also has to join The Avengers and The Fantastic Four on several adventures when he gets older.

Goku when he grows up goes down the events of Dragon Ball Z, but somewhat altered as Raditz, Nappa, and also Vegeta turn good and also the best events of Dragon Ball Super(Such as saving Trunk's Future for good)along with some of major events of the Marvel 616 Earth and elements of Dragon Ball GT for the finale.

The Marvelous Monkey King Part 3: The Powers of the Main Saiyans.

Over the course of the story Goku gains everything he has officially including filler to have a chance against the major villains of Marvel and Dragon Ball to prove himself as one of the best to keep up with Marvel's heavy hitters.

Son Goku works to get everything he has from Dragon Ball, Dragon Ball Z, Dragon Ball GT, and Dragon Ball Super,(Son Goku gets Super Saiyan Kaio-ken, in Dragon Ball Super, Son Goku keeps the God Ki in his base, gets Super Saiyan God, Super Saiyan Blue Kaio-ken, Super Saiyan Blue Perfected and learns to use Hakai). And Son Goku also gets all his various power ups and eventually gets all the abilities and transformations he has from filler and also the non serial films and in the cannon ones.

Son Goku eventually masters all his official transformations. In order Son Goku masters the Oozaru, Kaioken, False Super Saiyan, Super Saiyan, the Super Saiyan Grades, Super Saiyan Kaio-ken, Super Saiyan 2, Super Saiyan Three, Golden Oozaru, Super Saiyan 4, Super Full Power Saiyan 4 and Son Goku gains Super Full Power Saiyan 4 Limit Breaker. And he has all the abilities those forms have and the transformations he has are at their best.

And after Goku masters his mortal Saiyan Biology and Primal Powers their has to be an arc to symbolize how far he has come as he becomes more heroic through his adventures. And to Hammer that point in at the end of that arc Goku needs to lift Thor's Hammer when he eventually proves himself to be Worthy and has all of Thor's powers added to his own. This happens after Son Goku becomes the guy in the original English Dub.

In Super Goku's new base form must have the power he has when he gained God Ki in Dragon Ball Super and all the powers of Marvel 616 Thor's powers added to his own. Son Goku gets Thor's strength, durability, energy manipulation, ability to survive in deep space, weather manipulation, Lifespan, and Thor's divine essence ends up merging with Son Goku's body and life force. But Goku still keeps all his Saiyan and Super Saiyan abilities like the Zenkai Boost and all the various Super Saiyan transformations and their power boosts he has worked to master.

In Asgard Son Goku learns to master his new Asgardian powers and develops the Super Saiyan God Forms. This is where Goku gets Super Saiyan God, Super Saiyan Blue, Super Saiyan Blue Kaio-ken, and Super Saiyan Blue Perfected.

In the Tournament of Power Goku gets Ultra Instinct -Sign- and Ultra Instinct -Omen- and after the Moro Arc Goku completely masters Ultra Instinct.

Son Goku gets everything he has officially with a bit of a boost so he can be one of the greatest heroes in Marvel and one of The Avengers, the Fantastic 4 and the X-Men's big guns.

Their are a lot of people who can kill Son Goku unless he gets a power boost. Here is a list of Villains who you can be can kick Goku's butt without even trying if Son Goku does not get stronger. These are the ones I am aware of.

Magneto, Set, Dormammu, Umar, Galactus, Cull the Serpent, Doctor Doom, The Heralds of Galactus, The Dark Phoenix, The Sentry, The Void, Thanos in his base, Thanos with the Infinity Gauntlet, The Beyonder, The Celestial's, and The Beyonders.

Molecule Man, The Juggernaut at his best, Onslaught, The Red Hulk, The One Below All, Abraxas, The Black Winter, Gorr the God Butcher, Malekith the Accursed, Surtur, Ymir, The Midgard Serpent, Hela, Those Who Sit Above in Shadow, Knull The Symbiote God. The Big Bad of the Shinto Pantheon is one of them. Some of The Olympians, The Titans and The Giants of Greek Myth can also be added to the list. Hades the Greek God and some of his servants can kick his ass as well. A lot of Gods and Cosmic Level threats can wreck him. And that is excluding those with Cosmic Artifacts like the Cosmic Cube.

Marvel has a lot of villains that are monsters so Goku needs more power. But to make sure Son Goku is not invincible here are his weaknesses.

1. If Goku delves to deep into his anger he has to run the risk of going into Thor's Warriors Madness. Goku has the strength boost Thor has in the Warrior's Madness but he will lose control of himself if he digs to deep. It is a double edge sword.

2. Son Goku's tail can be grabbed and if his tail is removed he could lose the Super Saiyan 4 transformations.

3. Goku still has a limit to the amount of energy he has in his body.

4. Goku's love of battle can get the best of his judgment.

Now here are the ideas for Vegeta, Nappa, Raditz, and Broly.

For Vegeta's character arc, you have to do what he has been through in canon. For his abilities. Do what I have requested for Goku in terms of his official abilities and longevity but apply that to Vegeta. Vegeta gets everything that he has officially.

For Raditz, see MasakoX's What if Raditz Turned Good? video series for ideas.

For Nappa, see MasakoX's What If Nappa turned Good? video series for ideas.

Now for Broly.

Broly has all of his Z Era powers and those from some of the games that his Z Era self has. Such as Legendary Super Saiyan 3 and Super Saiyan 4. But Broly is his Super Era self and he also has all the powers of his Super Era self. Broly needs to be a beast because the bad guys will kick Broly's ass without them, and Broly will be screwed by cosmic threats and so people will fear him for his power.

But to balance it out here are his weaknesses. Broly needs to disperse some of his overwhelming power like Kale in Dragon Ball Super other wise it could kill him and he can lose control of himself in his rage.

For Broly's character development. What planet Broly lands on and what his upbringing is like is up to you. But Broly is a mixture of his Dragon Ball Z, his Dragon Ball Z Abridged and his Dragon Ball Super selves until he gains control. Broly is a soft spoken and kind Tarzan like character but he cannot control his rage or strength. And when Broly gives in to his anger he turns into the monster his Z Era Self was. But that is because something messed with Broly's head.

Then when Broly goes to earth Bruce Banner and The Hulk, Rick Jones, Doc Samson, Betty Ross(Betty Ross gains all the powers and forms she has obtained other the years in Earth 616 and learns to control them to help the good guys), Red Hulk, Jennifer Walters aka She Hulk, all help Broly control his strength and anger and also help heal his shattered psyche.

The Marvelous Monkey King Part 4: Saiyan Parings and The Next Generation.

Son Goku being Goku is a bit dense when dealing with anything not involving fighting but especially love until he learns that he has a harem of women and how much they love him and he grows to love them all and keep all his ladies happy.

Son Goku falls in love and has kids with these lovely ladies. 1. Chichi. 2. Jean Grey. 3. Jennifer Walters, She Hulk. 4. Brunhilde the original Valkyrie. 5. Black Widow Natasha Romanoff. 6. Mocking Bird.

Vegeta gets to fall in love with and have kids with these gorgeous women, 1. Bulma, 2. Elizabeth 'Betsy' Braddock 3. Hildegard(Asgardian). 4. Electra.

Raditz falls in love with and has kids with 1. Launch. 2. Domino. 3. Astrid(Asgardian). 4. Janet Van Dyne the Wasp. 5. Jessica Drew, Spider Woman. 6. Monica Rambeau.

Nappa falls in love with and gets kids with 1. Mystique. 2. Andromeda Attumasen. 3. Hela. 4. Kismet.

5. Sersi.

And for Broly he gets to be with and have kids with 1. Cheelai. 2. Lorelei. 3. Wanda Maximoff. 4. Gamora. 5. Greer Grant, aka Tigra. 6. Thundra.

When Goku, Broly, Nappa, Raditz, and Vegeta have kids, they must father a new generation of powerhouses. Some of the kids are mutants that in terms of power give Apocalypse a run for his money. If they are demigods the higher cosmic beings will have a run for their money. If Son Goku has also has kids after he gets all his power ups the kids must be Super Saiyan Mutants, Super Saiyan Demigods, and the strongest are Super Saiyan Mutant Demigods.

On Earth they must be hated and feared with the amount of power they have and also some of Goku's kids being Mutants. But they are welcome in Asgard.

The Marvelous Monkey King Part 5: The Ending and The Legacy Of Goku.

After Goku, Vegeta, Raditz, Nappa, Broly, the strongest of their harems, the strongest Z Fighters and Mightiest of The Avengers win the Tournament of Power and put Freiza down for good and destroy Moro the Planet Eater Goku, Raditz, Nappa, Broly, and Vegeta train the Saiyans how to reach and use the Super Saiyan transformations. They also teach proper Ki control so the Saiyans can defend the universe when they are done and Goku trains Uub to help protect Earth when he is done.

After a time skip the events of Dragon Ball GT play out altered except for the regular Dragon Balls having their GT dark side and the final episodes and ending. Dragon Ball GT has to be the Avengers Endgame of the story. A homage to everything before and the grand finale to an era.

The team must collect the Black Star Dragon Balls from across the universe because the Pilaf Gang made a wish on them. After the Baby Saga because the cast overused the Earth's normal Dragon Balls the Shadow Dragons are born and rampage across the Earth and they create a rift connecting Earth to all the various Hell's allowing all the villains that the good guys killed to rampage across the Earth furthering the damages to the planet. Their are also more of Shadow Dragons than in Dragon Ball GT.

But at the final battle after Goku and his companions defeat the Shadow Dragons and the returned bad guys Goku has to leave with Shenron to prevent people from relying on him and the Dragon Balls until the Earth can stand on its own.

To help Earth evolve Krillin and Tien bring back the Turtle and Crane Houses of Martial Arts and Vegeta also open his own martial arts school. Piccolo goes to Namek to teach his kin his fighting style, his techniques, and trains them to reach his power level.

The children of Goku, Broly, Raditz, Nappa, and Vegeta, become super heroes and after that career they work to better the world. For example Son Gohan becomes The Great Saiyaman and after he retires Goten takes up the mantle of Saiyaman and eventually his father's mantle, The Marvelous Monkey King.

When Gohan retires from Super Heroics he writes the Ki Manuel's from Dragon Ball Online and builds his own martial arts school with all the various techniques and training regiments Gohan and his father learned as it's teachings to help Earth.

Nappa, Raditz, and Vegeta also open their own martial arts school and so do all of Marvel's Martial Artists.

When Goku, Shenron, and Earth's Dragon Balls left the mortal world Goku, Shenron, and the Earth's Dragon Balls ascend to a higher plane of existence and Son Goku evolved into something more than a Supreme Kai, or a Super Saiyan God. When Son Goku left he also gained all the powers and immortality of Hanuman and Sun Wukong from the actual myths of Hanuman and Sun Wukong along with what Son Goku has earned.

To the Earth Son Goku is one of the strongest and most accomplished Super Heroes on Earth. Son Goku served on The Avengers, Fantastic 4, and The X Men. Goku is a hero who has shown the human race what can happen if you are good and go beyond your limits. Also on Earth Son Goku is seen as the true spiritual successor of Sun Wukong The Monkey King.

To the aliens of his universe Son Goku is Kakarot the youngest son of the Saiyans prophet and one of the Super Saiyans who helped train and reform the Saiyan race. Kakarot is seen as a hero who defeated some of the worst monsters from across the cosmos.

Among the Gods and Cosmic Entities, Son Goku is known as one who through hard work achieved a level of Enlightenment, surpassed most Gods, and at the end of his journey became an Immortal and Invulnerable Warrior God who will protect the Universe but only when truly needed.

That is the Legacy of Goku.

Guardian-Sigil: Cool! But I will have to decline this challenge.

Reason Number 1…I never watched any version of Dragon Ball.

Well except for select episodes of Dragon Ball Z Abridged. But I'm not sure if that counts.

Reason 2. I am already slow to update one story, let's not add another that'll have to be just as long if not longer

Sorry but I love your passion!

Guest: You should do an ova where the cadets visit the alien zoo from star trek lower decks where the Moopsy gets out.

Guardian-Sigil: I have something similarly planned but I kinda want to introduce and use Khyber first

---

Guest: Izuku you are going to need some power boosts in order to keep up with the big guys. And after loosing the Watch you are going to need some new tools.

Now can I make a suggestion? Have Izuku meet the Galactic Enforcers and maybe he trains in how to better use his alien forms and they get as strong as they are in the original shows, Also maybe this trip also gives Izuku some new weapons. In fact that is how you implement some of the games.

Ben 10: Protector of Earth: Ben, Gwen and Max deal with their usual rogues gallery while trying to reclaim the Omnitrix's aliens from a space mosquito. (Platforms: PlayStation Portable, PlayStation 2, Nintendo DS and Wii)

Ben 10 Alien Force: An original story of Ben, Gwen and Kevin being recruited by an undercover Plumber to retrieve parts for a dangerous weapon. Naturally, all isn't what it seems. (Platforms: Wii, PlayStation 2, PSP, and Nintendo DS)

Ben 10 Alien Force Vilgax Attacks: Pretty much what is says on the tin. Ben and the group take on Vilgax once more. (Platforms: Nintendo DS, PlayStation 2, PSP, Wii and Xbox 360)

Ben 10 Alien Force: Rise of Hex: Once again the title tells you everything you need to know. (Platforms: Wii via WiiWare and Xbox 360 via Xbox Live).

Ben 10 Ultimate Alien: Cosmic Destruction: Ben, Gwen and Kevin find themselves hopping the globe to stop different menaces from destroying the cites. (Platforms: PlayStation 3, PlayStation 2, PSP, Xbox 360, Nintendo DS and Wii)

Ben 10: Omniverse: Ben's Omnitrix goes haywire once more and warps Ben and Rook into the past where they meet the former's 11-year old self. When Malware gets his hands on Rook's weapon and creates an alternate future, the three set out to stop him and fix the damage. (Platforms: PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, Wii, Nintendo DS, Nintendo 3DS and Wii U (one of its launch titles in fact).

Ben 10: Omniverse 2: Ben once again takes on the Incurseans. (Platforms: PlayStation 3, Wii, WiiU, Xbox 360 and Nintendo 3DS)

Ben 10 Power Trip (2020) The Tennyson family go on an European holiday until it is interrupted by Hex awakening four mysterious crystals and summoning monsters from the Void. (Platforms: PlayStation 4 , Switch, Xbox One and PC)

I think the Potis Altiare can help boost the good guys. This is needed when you make Izuku and his crew go against the heavy hitters of Space.

In case you are not aware The Potis Altiare is a device that was created by the ancient Galvan as a device capable of multiplying one's natural abilities several times over.

Appearance: The Potis Altiare is green in color and resembles mechanical materials. There are gear-like stripes running behind the intergalactic peace symbol, and green wiring around it. There are black marks surrounding the symbol, as well as leaf-like edges. Once Ben transforms into an alien using it, the Potis Altiare is positioned on the Ultimatrix symbol.

History: Ben 10 Ultimate Alien: Cosmic Destruction. In Cosmic Destruction, six pieces of it were scattered all over the Earth. In the end Ben used it to power-up Way Big to defeat Evil Way Big.

According to Azmuth, his work began in the interest of the sciences that eventually created the Omnitrix and Ultimatrix long ago by Azmuth's ancestors the ancient Galvan. Realizing that the Potis Altiare was too dangerous, they decided to hide it on Earth since even if the primitive humans found it, they wouldn't know how to use it. Unfortunately, upon entering Earth's atmosphere, the ship carrying the device was destroyed and the device itself was torn to pieces. The pieces were found by villains and greatly enhanced their powers (though one piece turned Enoch to stone when it was removed). It can only be used once if a piece is missing.

You can use this to boost the Omnitrix and msybe the Ultimatrix and all of Ben's Alien Forms when you bring in Dagon the Destroyer. As for each aliens powered up variants. Not only can they all go Ultimate but why not also take a look at the Ben 10 Reboot when Ben's Aliens were boosted by the energy of the Fulmini Aliens for some inspiration.

Maybe the Potis Altiare can also allow Izuku to power up against the monsters of Earth and maybe after some of the heroes rebuilds and he help restores The Charms of Bezel as the crew have to grow in power to stand a chance against Dagon the Destroyer as he is a cosmic power house.

I hope you bring in the Charms of Bezel but make the relics of an advance alien race's technology. Because their is conflicting information on the charms.

Originally, Bezel was an advanced civilization rather than a person. In Omniverse, however, Bezel was revealed to be an actual character.

The out-of-universe reason for this is due to the fact that the Omniverse creative team on the show did not have all the information from the pop-up trivia episodes. Derrick J. Wyatt stated that he "tried to get a list of all those pop up facts a couple times but never got them".

Here are the charms and what they can do.

The Charm of Luck and Probability

The Charm of Luck grants the wielder supernaturally good luck. This causes anything and everything to go their way, but only if there was a possibility of it going their way in the first place. It makes all of the possessor's endeavors succeed in a good way. However, any opponents that may happen to be nearby suffer from increased misfortune.

Charm of Resurrection

The Charm of Resurrection returns its host to life or makes them recover from physical wounds and injuries, and regain consciousness if the user is unconscious (after a short amount of time).

Charm of Pyrokinesis

The Charm of Pyrokinesis grants its host the ability to magically generate, blast, and telekinetically manipulate fire.

Charm of Telekinesis

The Charm of Telekinesis allows the wielder to fly through the air at incredible speeds and also have great telekinetic control and manipulation over multiple objects or people all at once.

Charm of Electrokinesis

Much like the Charm of Pyrokinesis, the Charm of Electrokinesis grants the wielder the ability to create, generate, control, and manipulate all forms of electrical energy at will.

The Keystone of Bezel

The Keystone of Bezel increases all of the natural powers, abilities, and skills of the possessor, and amplifies the power of the charms tenfold.

The Potis Altiare is also used to boost the Kevin knockoff so he no longer goes nuts when absorbing Alien DNA and Energy.

Speaking of Video games can I make a few more suggestions? It would be awesome if you would implement elements of the various Ben 10 video games. Here is a list of the video games that you can look at for inspiration.

Ben 10: Protector of Earth: Ben, Gwen and Max deal with their usual rogues gallery while trying to reclaim the Omnitrix's aliens from a space mosquito. (Platforms: PlayStation Portable, PlayStation 2, Nintendo DS and Wii)

Ben 10 Alien Force: An original story of Ben, Gwen and Kevin being recruited by an undercover Plumber to retrieve parts for a dangerous weapon. Naturally, all isn't what it seems. (Platforms: Wii, PlayStation 2, PSP, and Nintendo DS)

Guardian-Sigil: There's a lot to unpack here so let's start from the top.

Deku already has several weapons: a shield which will make a renewed appearance and his SAGE Gun. There's artwork of the latter. Plus he also has a hoverboard. So mobility, defense, and offense are all covered.

I was never really a fan of the Galactic Enforcers

I will have to check out some of these items for general story development potentially

Also I am well aware about the lore around Bezel. And I already addressed all of that in an earlier chapter. Remember? It's called "The Magical Girl Uravity" chapter? It was the introduction to Charmcaster.

I have to check out these video games. Does anyone know any youtubers/twitch streamers that are fun to watch for those games?
