After participating the final exams from their teachers... class 1-A was split between relief and dejection
Even though most of them were okay, there are a handful who took the failure pretty bad...
Mina, Denki, Rikido and Eijiro were really gloomy and the acid girl was crying her heart out
"Come on you guys" Izuku spoke "this isn't the end of the world..."
"Easy for you to say" the electric boy muttered before stretching his arm out "you don't get to encourage us after passing your practical exam...!"
The soul student grabbed the limb before the fingers reached his eyes
"Hey calm down, not all of us were able to win" the tape student called before pointing his thumb at Minoru "I mean, I was defeated in my exam and my partner had to save me for us to pass"
The little perv smiled at being praised again 'I shouldn't gloat about this' he thought 'be smart Minoru, just savor the praise...'
As the failures still lament on their exams, Shouta Aizawa entered the room making them gulp at the results that will be revealed
The lazy man looked at them with his usual stare
"Alright, I graded your scores and have the results" he said staring at the small group "all of you passed"
The entire class blinked in surprise and confusion at their teacher's words prompting him to explain
And those that didn't pass felt both relief and excitement at this news
"Don't get your hopes up though..." he added "those who failed the exams are still noticed"
And said group slumped at the reminder making their relief short-lived with Hanta facepalming at that truth
The lazy teacher then announced that despite the hurdle. Everyone will participate the training camp, he then looked at his class with his usual unacring look
"You may have your chance to be heroes, but this isn't a game or an easy job" he activated his erasure quirk scaring most of them "you are risking your life along with others in this profession and it must be done without selfish whims"
The students quivered at his gaze unsure if they can make a retort
One did...
"Isn't that why we are learning?" Izuku called "then again, your teaching methods can be a hit or miss moment to students"
The lazy teacher turned to green haired boy, deactivating his quirk, and glared "what's that supposed to mean...?"
The soul student looked at his teacher calmly while the others were in disbelief at this moment
"My uncle told me once about a situation that a decision makes or breaks a result" he sighed "you may make capable heroes in the past but the results are always in small numbers"
"That's due to them not caring on the consequences Midoriya" Shouta argued
"And yet you never give them a remedial on that failure" the boy countered "you have worked yourself to the bone and become an underground hero" his eyes turned stony "but not everyone can see failure as a lesson" and sighed "which no doubt makes the expelled students give up the hero path and turn to villainy instead"
The other 1-A students gaped at the argument between their teacher and classmate. The lazy man gave threats and then changes his mind after seeing results was frightening, but the green haired boy pointed out that the fear being put in them is a choice to becoming hero or villain in their lives
Shouta blinked at the boy's words and was reminded about one friend he cherished in his younger days...
'C'mon Shouta!' a happy and supportive voice echoed 'you can do more than this! We're gonna become heroes together!'
The teacher shook his head at the memory and looked at his student almost seeing that friend in his view
"Alright Midoriya, I'll work my part to making this better" he stated surprising the class "but I won't change my mind on the rules since you lot walked in the first day" he added making some of them deflate at the hope of getting a less taxing teacher now...
"You do that" Izuku nodded "you are responsible in making us the heroes we will become" and chuckled "otherwise most of us will tell our teacher just doesn't have the means in making future heroes"
The teacher almost flinched at the accusation but kept his cool. He's not going to let himself slip up again and make another regret haunting his life
Lunch came and Midoriya was questioned on his actions in the classroom as they were getting food
"Are you nuts Midoriya?!" Minoru, Denki and Hanta shouted at their classmate
"You just argued with our teacher...!" Tenya, Ochaco and Momo followed in tandem
"Did your uncle secretly teach you on this situation?" Yuga and Mashirao questioned feeling that was the case
"If it is, it's manly" Eijiro hummed before turning to Katsuki "right Bakugo?"
"Whatever..." the explosive student looked away not wanting to be part of the chatter
The other students just stayed quiet knowing that it won't do anything to change the damage done in the classroom earlier
Izuku looked at the group before walking ahead to get a table making them follow behind
"Considering that teacher Aizawa is always reminding us to handle a problem" the boy sat down "I just figured that he needed to hear his own criticisms"
"But...! He's our teacher" the little perv retorted
"If that were the case" he sighed "I should not be a hero at all and just make myself a vigilante instead" and looked at his classmate "you should ask yourself; am I hero material...?"
That caused Minoru to go stiff...he wanted to be one so that he can be noticed. He realized that his personal interest is distracting to a fault and it will be a struggle to get what he wants in his path as a hero
Some of the others are asking themselves that very question despite what desire they carry to move forward toward the burden
What they didn't realize is that a couple others in their class are fit to be heroes
The gravity girl balled her hands under the table top 'I'll work hard and keep my focus on helping people I care'
The dual element student was remembering the visit to his hospitalized mother 'I'll carry the good and bad parts of me' he looked at his left arm seeing a flicker of flame 'I will save mother from her fear'
Izuku was eating his food and saw the others around be quiet for once
'Sorry for being mean you guys, but it has to known' he thought 'selfish or selfless goals...we will be challenged as we press forward'
The day continued with the lessons and it ended with the class going to have some personal thoughts on how to handle themselves now despite their teacher being more active in the teaching part
Izuku walked the hallway alone since he wants to show some people something about his progress in quirk control
He reached the staff room and knocked on the door getting the teachers' attention inside. And then the door opened to reveal Necrom
"Oh Izuku" he blinked at the boy "do you need something?"
"I was hoping for you to allow me permission on using one of the gyms today" the soul student said "with how everything has happened, I could need the school's open spaces for testing my quirk sometimes"
"Hold on, I'll talk with the other teachers about this request" he hummed before whispering to him "I am curious of that new quirk you showed before Yagi told us One For All's history"
After getting approval from the other teachers. Necrom, Izuku and Toshinori walked together making a pit stop at the development studio
"I'm surprised that you would just think of this now young Midoriya" the blonde skeleton spoke
"Considering that I have so much to handle in just my studies" the boy sighed "I couldn't remind myself about it"
"That does remind about the time I had problems handling my early impulses as a hero" the controversial hero hummed "I wonder if my friend in Italy still remembers me after these years...?"
"I'm sure that guy is keeping things together" Toshinori chuckled "I was surprised he mentioned when I visited"
Izuku smiled at the conversation he heard, it was a pleasant surprise that his uncle's friend was an acquaintance
'Zips' he remembered Necrom saying that name was a sign of trust and companionship he shared with that Italian hero 'I wonder if you heard the news about my uncle living in Japan yet...?'
Just then an explosion came causing the three of them to run toward the studio and the soul student has a pretty good idea
'It would happen eventually' he reached the work studio first to see Power Loader coughing as he was outside the smoking room 'your enthusiasm still lingers' and smiled a bit 'but that's what makes you so noticeable'
"Power Loader!" Necrom ran to his fellow teacher "you okay?"
"I'm fine, Hatsume is just in her antics again" the construction hero groaned
"Can you blame me?" said person shouted from the room "I've been getting a lot of orders than the class and it's giving me ideas on making more babies now!"
"At least she's sticking to her work" Toshinori smiled at such youthful energy
Izuku went went to the open door "Hatsume, its me!" he called "I'm here for my improvements we talked about last time"
"Be right there!" metal rattling was heard from inside "just made so much babies in here that I forgot to place them in a corner!"
"That's fine" the soul student replied "I even brought the thing you wanted to study"
More noises came and the inventor appeared, looking messy like usual, holding the new gloves in her hands
"Here you go!" she grinned "one improved set of babies for your hero costume!"
Izuku took the gloved and looked over them before smiling "they're wonderful Hatsume" he smiled before presenting a copy of his gangan saber "and as promised you have one a copy of my weapon for you to study"
The inventor squealed in delight at having the weapon Izuku used in the sports festival. When she held it in her hands, she was surprised at how light the thing is...
"This..." Mei blinked at the weight "is very easy to carry"
"The gangan saber was made only for me" the soul student smiled "it's like a toy to anyone else"
"I'm already getting ideas for more babies with the parts...!" the inventor grinned as she checked the parts "thanks for this Midoriya!"
Mei gave him a quick kiss in the cheek before running back inside to make those ideas into items
"That girl is a handful..." Power Loader shook his head
"But at least she's going to be busy" Necrom supplied "otherwise she'll go to you and ask for permission before making the items"
Toshinori looked at his successor, who was shaking his head mirthfully, and remembered his own supporter when he was in America for a time 'maybe I should introduce you to Dave one day young Midoriya' he thought 'I'm sure he and Melissa would like to see you'
The three were now in the gym with the soul student wearing his new gloves for a test trial
"Let's see if these gloves can work with One For All's new ability" Izuku raised his hand and the black tendril appeared without moving erratically like the earlier times he brought it out "a slightly more controlled state" he smiled at Mei's handiwork "this is at least going to help with my personal training when I get home"
"So how well can you control that black whip?" Necrom questioned
"We'll find out uncle" the soul student replied "and thanks for giving me a name on this past quirk"
The boy raised his arm, the whip extended upon the movement, and brought it down creating a shockwave and dust cloud covering the area
"Okay" the controversial hero coughed "that's going to be chore to handle"
"It's power is devastating" the blonde skeleton followed "is this what the past vessels had to do when carrying One For All?"
Izuku used Full Cowling and waved his arms blowing the smoke away "with how many generations added to me, the power is greatly multiplied"
Just then the doors opened to reveal Midnight and she blinked at the still visible dust cloud in the area
"Oh my..." she gasped a bit "what happened here?"
"Midnight?" Necrom blinked "stayed late to check on your lesson plans?"
"We were seeing young Midoriya's new ability with his soul quirk again" Toshinori answered "though he might need some work on controlling it's power"
"What is this new ability?" the R-rated hero blinked at seeing and energy whip form in her students hand "perhaps I can give my time to you Midoriya" she smiled "I use whips in my hero work"
"Thank you for the suggestion teacher" the soul student smiled "but right now I have to work on properly controlling Black Whip" he said "I wouldn't to hurt my allies with this ability..."
"Oh darn..." the woman huffed "I was hoping one student would come to learn my arsenal one day"
Izuku looked at his teacher sadly before saying something
"Tell you what Midnight" he said to the R-rated hero "after I get proper control, I'll go to you and ask for those lessons"
She squealed in glee before picking the boy up and gave him a warm hug "you won't regret it Midoriya!" and whispered softly into his ear "I'll even make sure you are rewarded for asking my help"
The boy blushed a bit but kept himself calm since he knows Midnight is good on making her target submit with proper wording and actions
"Thank you for at least letting me breathe" he smiled "and I'm sure you have much to teach me"
'I'm already thinking some ways' Midnight hummed 'and I might need to talk with Aizawa since Black Whip is similar to that capture tape carries when I saw the news in Hosu'
Another day of school passed and 1-A finished their lessons in All Might's class and the students were changing out of their hero costumes
"All Might sure is giving us the works" Eijiro sighed as he placed his costume in the locker
"At least it isn't intense today" Denki called "otherwise we would be panting heavily in this room"
As the guys are changing into their school uniforms Minoru was finished and waved to Izuku and show something surprising
"Hey, look at this" the little perv lifted a poster to reveal a peep hole on the wall
No doubt leading to the female locker rooms of their class
"Are you sure about it Mineta?" the soul student blinked "you've been handling yourself a bit better since the Hosu incident"
"I've struggled with myself today... and it is rushing me to peek at the girls body in the other room!"
"No Mineta!" Tenya scolded his perverted classmate "don't go back to your impulses...!"
"Too late class rep!" Minoru went to the peep hole "I'm going to see the girls in that locker room...!"
He started listing out loud the eye-catching features of his female classmates and would've continued had it not been for a jack hitting his eye making him scream in pain and pass out afterward
"Looks like Jiro handled the problem" Izuku pulled his perverted classmate away from the hole and turned to his fellows in the room "can someone get Mineta to Recovery Girl and explain to her how it happened"
"I'll go" Tokoyami volunteered
"I as well" Yuga followed "I'd rather not face the wrath of our classmates since they just heard le perv's words"
The two dragged the little pervert away leaving the rest to figure out how to lessen the awkward moment
Thankfully Izuku was the one to break that...
"Girls! Sorry about the problem Mineta just caused" he called "I hope that it doesn't make you lash out at us when we get back to the classroom"
"It's not a problem Midoriya" Momo replied "I'm just glad the situation settled"
"Yeah!" Ochaco followed "it isn't your or the other guys fault for that perverted idiot...!"
"That's a relief" the soul student smiled "and by the way Jiro, I can tell you are a bit upset that the little pervert didn't mention you in his rant"
"How did you know that?!" said girl shouted aloud
The others wanted to know that as well...
"It's actually because of my soul quirk" he scratched his head a bit "apparently I can now feel another person's emotion if it's strong enough"
"Th-that's stupid!" the earphone girl stammered "your quirk is getting ridiculous Midoriya...!"
"If it makes you feel better, you're an eyecatcher too" he persisted "I...would like to hear the music you play if you're willing"
He got silence in return... before a loud thud followed
"Jiro...?" he called
"She fainted Midoriya" Mina called "apparently your words got her brain to overload"
"Oh" he blinked "will she be okay?"
"She'll be fine" Toru replied "she just needs time to herself after you tried to cheer her up from Mineta's actions"
"Alright" Izuku turned to his other classmates "let's hurry you guys"
"Right!" most of them agreed and started to move fast on their changing not wanting to stay in the awkward situation
Katsuki shook his head as he finished his necktie 'that's always like you Deku' he recalled the same action back in his childhood 'trying to stop a problem and help people'
In the girl side of the locker room. Jiro was placed on the bench as Momo used her quirk to make a fan and use it to cool down her fainted classmate while the others talked about Izuku's interaction with her
"I'm surprised that Midoriya would say those things to Jiro" Toru said as she finished her uniform ensemble
"I'm with you Hagakure" Mina nodded "I didn't think our sound classmate would faint after being complimented for a bit"
"It does give us an idea that she would like playing music in her free time" Tsuyu croaked
"And also to be careful around Midoriya sometimes..." the creation girl added "we might end up like Jiro if we aren't seeing the situation ourselves"
Ochaco stayed quiet and looked at the floor with her face growing hot upon recalling... certain scenarios when she interacted with him
She shook her head to stop the heat from growing 'no, don't get distracted Ochaco!' she thought 'you declared to be a hero on Deku's motivating speech during the study session...!'
The girls waited for their classmate to wake up and help her stay calm after what happened with Izuku earlier
The students of 1-A went back to class and packed their school bag before heading home with some looking at the soul student for a moment
'I wonder what he will do in the training camp?'
Izuku decided to be the last one to leave since he was still thinking about Black Whip after it's trial test the other day
"Hmm..." he lifted his hand and the black whip was at least in a stable control "at least it's better shape now without the glove stabilizing it through my training with Goemon in Dagobah beach"
The soul student stopped using Black Whip and decided to visit Midnight and tell her his progress
He was at the door and raised his arm 'I hope that she won't be too busy today'
The boy knocked on the door and waited. After a minute, it opened to reveal said person blinking in surprise
"Oh Midoriya" the R-rated hero blinked in surprise at seeing him "why are you still in school?"
"I wanted to tell you that my control with Black Whip is nearly done" he stated "and I feel that you should be personally notified in my progress"
"That's nice" she crossed her arms "but that isn't all is it?"
The boy scratched his head in embarrassment and looked away from her gaze "I'd like to ask for your contact number"
The woman raised her brow at him
"When I finally have true control of Black Whip, I will message you and we can converse about a schedule for those lessons you suggested"
The R-rated hero smiled a bit at her student's boldness but she wanted to see if he's smart about the request he made
"Is that all...?"
The soul student's face turned red as he still didn't look at her in the eye
"I don't want my mom to panic when you suddenly arrive at my home" he replied before the red color on his face grows "and I may... have listed down a number female pro-heroes that I developed a crush on..." before coughing awkwardly "you are in that list by the way"
Midnight blinked in surprise that her innocent student has kept such a side of himself hidden very well. She did feel flattered that the boy added her in his little list before using a finger to make him look at her
"Is the list long?" she asked
"Not... really" the boy's face reddened again before recalling Minoru's slippery mouth about his teacher fighting with Mt. Lady "you should know this. You are just above the rookie pro-hero"
That interview soured her mood, but she did feel happy to be higher than that bratty hero
The two exchanged their contacts and agreed only to message each other rather than call since it would be bad for the media to get a hold of such a story and publicize it to the masses in Japan and create distractions
Hell...the R-rated hero even gave her real name to the boy as a sign of proper trust when she is out of her uniform on the visit to not shock the mother in his home apartment so much
With the exchange done. Izuku went home to spend time with his mother and get an early dinner today
"Izuku..." Inko looked at her boy "is there a reason why you wanted dinner so soon?"
"It's nothing to worry about mom" he looked to his loving parent "I just need some fresh air for an hour or two after being given so much attention" before laughing in embarrassment "after all, most of my life is having little attention and now I have to adapt in getting so much of it now"
The mother smiled a bit and let out a small giggle...she remembered a time of Mark sounding just like her boy when he told about being swarmed by people after stopping a fight during the earlier visits of Japan
Izuku finished his meal and said goodbye to his mom before heading for Dagobah beach on a personal exercise
Once there, he used his soul quirk to summon his Goemon eyecon
"So you're going for another spar session with me?" the ninja hummed
"I am" the boy nodded "figured that I could test myself against that weighted chain you used the other time"
"Let's see how well you can use Black Whip" Goemon challenged
Izuku used his soul quirk to give a physical body and have another sparring session after handling different weapons the ninja taught him for a couple of weeks
"Same rules like last time?" Goemon recalled
"1 match lasing five minute" Izuku stated "and we keep "
The two prepared themselves with the souls student having Black Whip in both arms while the ninja created a kusari-fundo
The spar lasted about 5 matches with Goemon still the winner due to his lifetime experience with it
"Whew" Izuku wiped the sweat off his forehead as the sun started to set over the water "how was the progress...?"
"You're getting better" the ninja nodded "last spar we went for 3 matches and you couldn't keep up with me"
"I was caught off-guard on your insistence" he sat up "otherwise I would be coughing after you keep surprising me with the weighted part flying around"
"No joke" the ninja laughed "you will be quite a hero in the future little boy" and patted his summoner's head "just remember what I told you on our first interaction"
"Walk my chosen path to the end"
Another set of days passed and Izuku was with a group to get supplies
The classmates with him are: Tenya, Ochaco, Tsuyu, Eijro, Mina and Momo
"Okay people!" the class rep clapped his hands "you know what we are here for?"
"Getting supplies for the training camp" Momo answered with the other students nodding in agreement
"We split up to get our things and meet back at where we gathered"
The group then went to their respective stores and get the needed items they will bring for the training camp
Izuku and and Ochaco were next to each other as they walked around to look for the store
"So Deku" the gravity girl hummed "what are you missing in your supplu bag"
"I need to get some reusable bottles for my soap and shampoo" he answered "and some bug spray in case the insects started gathering in the forest"
"Me too!" she smiled but when she turned to look for the specific store her eyes landed on a clothing store and gasped in surprise "Deku look!"
The soul student followed her gaze and his eyes widen on the store she spotted
On the window there were two hoodless jackets resembling his parka coats!
Specifically, the Ore and Boost versions
"You have merchandise now!" Ochaco jumped in glee at seeing her friend's soul coats in display
"I'm not even licensed yet..." Izuku blinked before grabbing his friend's arm "let's move Uraraka"
"No!" she tried reaching for the store with her free arm "I want to get one...!"
"Another time!" he pulled her away "we focus on the supplies first!"
Izuku was surprised at how people would already have himself become a celebrity...then again, stopping Stain in Hosu could be why the people would create items
No doubt hiding that danger still lurks after the hero killer declared his intention to the pros that night
'Is the government doing subtle cover ups?' he thought 'using me as a distraction to people?' his eyes narrowed a bit 'is that also part of why uncle doesn't like being in the top hero list...?'
Ochaco decided to go get bug spray the camp area. And Izuku went to a kitchenware store and see if he needs an extra container if the food in camp is savory like his mom's cooking at home
'Should I go for a big one?' he thought 'or maybe a stackable set instead?'
After deciding which container is best for the trip, the green haired boy decided to wandera around for a bit and get some of his thoughts straight
"I'm surprised how people can change their minds so quickly..." he sighed "is this what the world has become?"
"I ask that myself question too" a familiar voice spoke "and so far I haven't heard an answer"
Izuku's eyes went wide as Danger Sense activated, but he was too late to act as a hand grabbed his neck and felt four fingers wrapped around it. He didn't need to guess who was talking to him
"Shigaraki" he sighed "what are you doing here? Shouldn't you be busy being angry at anyone who doesn't listen to you...?"
"That's suppose to be the case" the manchild sighed "but right now, I'd like a talk with you"
"And the grip?" the soul student pressed
"I'm a villain..." Tomura deadpanned "scaring people is a natural act for me"
"Would you like a seat then?" Izuku suggested "I think you listen better that way"
The hand villain blinked at the suggestion, but he did wander around earlier and his feet are starting to ache...
"Alright" Tomura relented before tapping his final finger on the boy's neck as a reminder that his life is at risk "but you better answer my questions when I ask them"
"I'll...answer to my best ability" he stated "just don't expect them to be good ones"
The manchild glanced at his target and wa ssurprised he wasn't annoyed at the answer...in fact, the way he said it reminded him of his big brother upon their first meeting
The two sat on a bench looking at the crowd walking around in ignorance of the danger that is already a touch away from them
"So Deku" Tomura looked at his hostage "why is it that my work is always ignored by people? You and Stain get all the attention" and scratched his neck a bit "I'm frustrated and confused by that"
Izuku blinked at the villain's words, but considering the incidents happening by his hands...they were considered tantrums at best
"You just wanted to play and win your games"
Tomura blinked at the boy's answer. He didn't utter a word or scratch his neck...
"Care to make it simpler for me" the manchild tapped his free finger again reminding the soul student about his position "I'm... dizzy thanks to the Stain glitch"
"Stain and I have a belief" Izuku stated "we both admire All Might and his work" he glanced at the wrinkled teen "you on the other think that it's just piece of dirt that could be cleaned off" before looking at the passing crowd "and yet your plans didn't get known because you believe that it's when people notice them"
The manchild was quiet at first...normally he would complain and use his quirk to destroy what he hates. But then he was reminded of the time where he accidentally caused his brother to get a rash with his Decay quirk
'Ooh, that's itch is going to stay for a while' Dark's voice grunted in his head 'you should be careful with your hands little brother...we won't get to play much if this keeps happening to me'
'Big brother' Tomura mentally sighed 'I want to see you again'
He looked at his hostage and saw a defiant set of eyes in the midst of the current predicament
"Alright kid" the manchild released another finger from his hold "I think I found my answer" and released the boy "I'll let you go and not kill anyone today" he gave one last look at his free hostage "but next time we see each other, I might want to kill you myself"
Izuku coughed a bit but still held the defiant look at the hand villain "are you prepared for such things...?"
Tomura blinked at first before scoffing "you really have a hero's heart" and started walking away 'how long will it take for you to see that the world will just find another hero to hide behind when you die later'
The soul student rubbed his neck a bit 'I can feel his confusion within our talk' he thought 'what are you planning now Shigaraki...?'
"Deku!" Ochako's voice shouted making him turn around to see her running toward him in worry "what happened?!"
"Just met Tomura Shigaraki after getting my things" he muttered making the gravity girl gasp "I'm need to call the police and tell them what I experienced" and covered his eyes 'mom will be very worried that a villain got close to me...'
Tomura was walking in alleyway touching his hand mask carefully thinking on the conversation he had with Izuku
"I now see why the world ignores me" he breathed deeply "it's because of All Might" and then smiled a bit "when I kill you, the world will see what they have truly become..."
"Looks like you finally start knowing what to do Tomura" a familiar voice spoke
The hand villain looked around and saw a figure walking toward him. The person was wearing a plain black robe with grey lining on the bottom coat and sleeves. He was about to attack on instinct but saw the move their cowl and revealed a face making Tomura's eyes widen
The face was male with light brown skin, straight black hair tied in a small ponytail and heterochromatic eyes; the left is emerald and the right is hazel
The bottom half of his face was covered by a face mask since his civilian identity is necessary to blend in and hide in within society
This was Dark, the elusive villain and adopted brother of Tomura Shigaraki
"Big brother!" the hand villain ran to his brother-figure and carefully made sure to not have all his fingers touch him and activate his quirk "you're here!"
"Yes I am" the elusive villain chuckled "I gave All For One a call to see you and he approved" and clasped his younger brother's shoulders "now let's get back to the bar with Kurogiri. We have a lot to talk about from each other"
The manchild smiled gratefully that his master allowed the visit. He will enjoy exchanging words with Dark and not have to think about frustrating things for a while...
Author's Notes:
That concludes season 2 of Deku the Ghost... I hope the filler ending was satisfactory because now it will be on hold
I did a little argument between Shouta and Izuku to show the boy's progress as a brave individual and the teacher was reminded of a close friend he made (Loud Cloud) as a kid before becoming is a high expectant teacher in UA...
And before the mall incident, Izuku decided to test his soul quirk's abilities and One For All has now mixed together, amplifying his natural gift, and will work hard in the training camp arc
Not to mention that Midnight has now taken an interest into Izuku (and surprisingly the woman wanted the boy to like her rather than being desired like she displayed in her debut)
The elusive villain won't be part of the man child's plan in the training camp arc... rather he will have a minor role for the moment and watch his brother's plan unfold while possibly learning about Deku Ghost during the visit
Also I've got a name and occupation for the anti-villain OC I made:
Dark's real name is Paul E. Nowagata his job is business contracts; he helps a a group of people get jobs and the business owner pays him for getting workers, the fees are slightly above average, but said amount is actually a small fine to All For One since he was given freedom to travel the world and in said travels he got a loyal minion to be his bodyguard (said character will be a surprise and minor since they are to only act on Dark's word...most of the time)
Stat card (this one is from before he was recruited by All For One):
Pau E. Nowagata (remember this is him still being average before becoming Dark)
Quirk: Command (emitter)-can make the target/s act obedient upon his word limit; activates on using simple words
Trivia; I got this idea from Hitoshi Shinso's Brainwashing quirk but made it simpler and more limited to show that Paul's civilian life is short sighted due to the heroes being glorified idols by the government's controlling position in creating hero system
Power-2/5
Speed-2/5
Technique-1/5 (his quirk makes it easy to control them)
Intelligence-3/5
Cooperativeness-2/5 (people fear his quirk but wouldn't smear the guy due to using i self-defense most of the time)
