Chapter 5 - Strength
Str or Strength is the primary stat of all physical fighting. Throwing a simple punch uses a fraction of your Str, while fighting with some skill uses both Str and Dex. Different forms of combat will use different ratios, such as wielding a sword which uses 60% of your total Str at Level 1. This ratio will increase to 70% at level 5 and to 75% of Str and 5% of Dex at level 10. Stylized Unarmed Combat also uses different ratios per style, these ratios will be listed separately if you have different fighting styles.
(Written on the back of page)
Ok, from what I know One For All can only used via your own body. So no weapons, but that doesn't mean you can slack and not learn them. Unarmed combat is very special to a Gamer. While a normal person can fight without a special style, they are stunted in their growth. A gamer however is able to design their own style very easily and level said style to fight masters of known styles.

He might not be on par with this thing, but he was going to try. He rushed the flying Crusader and during the run, used Bone Blade. He felt the bone leave his body as it appeared in his hand, and without a second though stabbed as hard as he could. Knowing it would explode he kicked off of it to gain distance, the blade exploded violently.
[Bone Blade Level up! Lvl: 1 - 2]
He summoned another and rushed in again, the crusader seeing through the attack struck out and missed. Izuku had been hit by Seiren to many times to be hit by such an untrained attack. He quickly ducked his head, and stabbed the blade directly into the neck of the thing. He kicked off the crusader again, aiming for its leg, hoping to cripple it. As soon as he was out of range it exploded, and Izuku summoned another. His spine felt like it was fire, but he couldn't let up.
[Bone Blade Level up! Lvl: 2 - 3]
[Stat Increase!
(Select to Expand)]
He rushed back in, dodging the pathetic strike, and stabbed the blade into the chink of the armor near its thigh. He heard a grunt a pain, and kicked off aiming for the leg again. The explosion didn't take the leg off or even cripple it. He wished he could see the things HP.
Summoning another Bone Blade he was unprepared for a spell to go off point blank in his face blasting him away.

He crashed into a nearby crystal and quickly dodge out of the way, as a projectile landed where he just was. The crystal crumbled under the stress and showered the area in its dust. He ran again toward the Crusader and was forced to block a sword it had summoned within the short duration of time. His bone blade exploded after the block, damaging Izuku. Jumping back, he resummoned another blade, and was hit by a spell in the back.
[You have gained the following buff: Hermes' Blessing]
He took a quick look back and saw Seiren had regrew her leg and was carrying her sister away. He turned back to the Crusader and ran at it. Dodging it sword strike, instead of blocking, and stabbed as hard as he could into the back of the knee joint. He was relieved to see the blade had caused a massive amount of damage and cheered inwardly as the Crusader was forced to take a knee. As it hit the ground, the blade exploded, shredding the knee even more.
[Stat Increase!

[Bone Blade Level Up! Lvl: 3 - 4]
Izuku tanked the explosion and summoned another blade. Stabbing as hard as he could into the back of the head, he not only received a prompt but also got blasted away from it. He landed against the cave wall and hit hard. The crusader seemed to bear the pain and stood up on its now defunct knee. Izuku groaned as he stood up himself.
[Celestial Resistance has now worn out and the enemy is weak. Now get them!]
Taking a step forward, he lost the buff and was forced to run, at which felt like a slow speed. He made it up to the Crusader, who hadn't moved, and was forced to block as it had summoned another blade and was now dual wielding. The bone blade blew up in both of their faces and Izuku got clipped by one of the swords. He was spun around and received a gash in his left arm.
Going with the spin, he summoned another blade and went for the knee. His blade shattered against the armor, but the resulting explosion did the trick as the Crusader was thrown to its knee again. Izuku summoning another blade, went for a killing strike, but wasn't fast enough as the enemy had stabbed it's free blade through his stomach. The pain shocked his breath from him, and panic started over taking him. Gamer's Mind banished the fear and forced him to calmly think. Not knowing what else to do he proceeded with his initial attack and stabbed as hard as he could.
Having aimed for the eye slot, and striking true. Izuku felt the blade crunch through the eye and heard it pop. The blade then exploded and Izuku's hand was shredded. Luckily for him though, the Crusader didn't move, and it's head went limp. Blood started flowing out of the eye slots and below the helmet. Izuku tried not to look, but the sword in his stomach made it slightly hard. He tried to close his eyes but the image of grey matter mixed in with blood was ingrained into his head.
As the Knight slowly started to decay into shadow, the sword it had summoned started to fade also. As it faded away Izuku fell backward, and just stared at the ceiling. He looked at his Hp and let out a small thank you to the world.
[HP: 654 / 3,000]
He had just barely lived through what was no doubt a critical hit on him. Lifting his head, he saw the Crusader completely disintegrate. He not only received a prompt but was hit near unconsciousness as Knight's Vow had run its course. He took another look at his statuses.
[Izuku Midoriya
Hp: 654 / 1,000
Stamina: 324 / 800]
With Gamer's Mind working overtime, the thought of almost dying even with a massive boost just made him want to work harder.

(He also received Qualities for reaching 100 in certain stats. See below!)
As he continued to lay there looking over his stats, Seiren had walked up to him and looked down at him. "You good?"
Izuku looked at her and he could see her eyes scanning him over. "Yeah, just taking stock and lying down. That last attack really hurt."
She smiled, "I bet. You were stabbed right through the liver. Congrats on the levels by the way." She stuck out her hand. Izuku taking it was pulled to his feet.
He felt heavier, weak, and mentally drained. "I feel nauseous."
"It's from the buffs wearing off, you'll feel like that for awhile. Your body likes the feeling of being powerful and fluid. If you liked the feeling maybe you should work out more than cleaning a beach." She finished off make a face at him.
Scratching his cheek, "Hehe, I'll tell All Might."

Back on Earth

"How would you recommend training him?"
Leaning back and crossing his arms in thought, "Well, he will never get tired unless it's fight training. So I suggest pushing him to his absolute limit everyday as much as possible. Don't worry about burn out, it'll never happen. Just make sure what he is doing isn't using his stamina."
"What would be his limit?"
"Do you know where his stats are?"
All Might thought back, "He said they were in the 50 and above last time."
"I suggest testing his max speed and max weight limit. Best to figure that out and work from there."
All Might nodded, "Did your wife say anything about what will happen when Izuku gets One for All? Will it be affected by Gamer?"
"Yes it will, It will progress naturally and the more control and usage it gets, the stronger it will become. As for what will happen to him eventually, she didn't say, all she said was wait and find out."
All Might let out a chuckle, "Did she always speak like that?"
Hideki smiled and nodded, "She did, at first it annoyed me to no end, but eventually I learned it was for the best. Knowing the future tends to drive you crazy wanting to change it."
All Might nodded, "Wise words. Did she ever say how she came across the future sight quirk?"
"She always said she came across it in America."
"Where was she from?"
"Boston. We met there actually, spent a few months abroad on business and she came back with me after we married."
All Might and Hideki talked about their experiences in America until the kids returned.

They had walked over to where Akito was laid down. Izuku looked over her, and as he did so, she spoke, "I'll be okay, after going to sleep I'll be right as rain."
"How do you feel?" He sat down inside her peripheral.
"Absolutely Nothing." She smiled.
Izuku sweat dropped, "How can you be so happy right now?"
He assumed she tried to count on her fingers, but realized she couldn't and just spoke out loud slightly annoyed, "One, We won! Two, I took down a shield that reduced all magical effects by 95%! Three, I now have my own Knight in Shining Armor, who just happens to be a future #1 hero." She finished with a smile.
Izuku could feel the heat creep up his neck. Seiren had sat down next to him. "Thank you Izuku." He looked over at her and received a hug. It was slightly awkward but not unwelcome.
They parted and Akito spoke aloud, "I'd hug you too, but…" she trailed off, looking down.
Seiren snickered, "It's what you get for not stopping sooner. Also you can hug him when you wake up. [Sleep]"
"Don't you d…." she tried to fight it but succumbed to the spell.
"She will be okay right?", asked Izuku.
"Yeah, the brat will be alright, Gamer's Body is probably the only reason our family is even still alive after all the crap our mom put us and herself through." She pulled out their sleeping bags and handed Izuku his.
Laying it out and laying down, "Got any good stories?"
Having spread out her own, she smiled and looked over at him, "Most definitely."
They talked until they both had their fill of stories.
—
The next "morning" Izuku awoke to something falling onto him. He opened his eyes and saw a now shadowy black haired Akito pinning him to the ground. "Hi?"
She continued to hug/pin him, "Hello."
"Can I get up?"
"Nope."
He laid there for a second before Seiren who had already woken up, picked her sister up by the scruff of her shirt. Izuku took his moment to escape. She then dropped Akito who made a mad scramble for Izuku. He quickly stood up and ran behind Seiren, "What is she doing?"
Seiren stepping out of the way of her sister, shrugged, "Thanking you? I think?"
His legs were tackled and even with his Str, she made it hard to walk. He sighed, "We going back now?"
Seiren nodded, "Yeah, but there's something I need to give you. Akito also has something she wants to give you."
He looked down at the little girl, who just held out her hand, and a smile plastered on her face. He gripped her hand his system was momentarily shocked by the amount of prompts he got.
[15 x New Spells Learned!]
(They're listed below.)
His eyes widened at the spells he just received, one of them, [Mana Storm] at Level 1 was only able to create a single spark and dealt only a small amount of damage. It didn't seem to give any knock back either. Yesterday Akito had sent the Crusader flying backward, just what level were her spells?
"Akito, Thank you!" He said with astonishment.
"No prob!" She hugged his leg again and stayed there.
Seiren sighed and reached into her pocket, she pulled out a book, it didn't have a cover or any distinguishable markings. "Here." She held the book out to him.
"What is it?" He took it and opened it. It was blank, but he did get a prompt though.
[Side quest complete! Survive Seiren's Adventure!
Reward: ?]
"A gift from mom, use observe."
He looked back down at the book and using Observe was greeted by a prompt.
[You have encountered a locked Object!
This book is locked with a password that must be said aloud.
The hint is, Who was you childhood friend?]
"Kaachan?" He said in slight confusion.
[Object Unlocked!]
[You have encountered a specialty book!
Selecting to read this book will consume it and give you the following:
A quirk]
"It's a specialty book? What is that? What quirk will it give me?"
Seiren smiled, "The thing that made Mom, who she was."
His eyes widened again, Akito spoke up to him, "Hurry up so we can be siblings!"
He shakily selected yes, and the book disintegrated.
[New Quirk Unlocked! Transference Lvl: 1 Xp 0.00%
This quirk allows you the ability to temporarily take levels from another's Quirk. The starting duration is only 5 seconds, but can eventually be a whole day. It can also be permanent at later levels. Leveling this quirk will also grant unique uses for this it, such as copying memories and items.
If a target has 2 quirks you will only be able to take one. The starting cool-down duration is 24 hours.]
Izuku was speechless, it was Seiren who spoke first, "So what's it do for you right now?"
Izuku repeated the box, verbatim. Akito spoke next, "That's really weird, mom and I are able to just take quirks. What does it mean by levels?" She turned to her sister.
Seiren shrugged, "Maybe it's from him having Gamer first? You and Mom were born with the quirk." Sticking out her hand, "Izuku use it on me."
Izuku reaches out a shaky hand and tried to activate his new quirk, it didn't work. "How does it work?"
Akito snickered, "Tell yourself, I'm borrowing this, and imagine taking something from the person."
Nodding he closed his eyes, and imagined. He opened them and received another prompt.
[Quirk Absorbed! Dimensional Traveler Lvl:1
(Select to Expand)]
He cheered, "It worked!"
"Try to do something."
"How?"
Before she could try and explain the duration had run its limits. Akito seemed to be annoyed, "That's so lame! It's going to take you so long to level it too. Quirks take 10 times longer to level than skills."
"And all it did was take a single level of my quirk from me. So I'm guessing the higher you level up your quirk, the more levels you also take. Also you probably won't be able to use it in battle anytime soon."
Akito blew a raspberry, "That was lame."
Seiren rubbed her temples, "Don't be a brat, he has another quirk and it's yours. So get over it."
She blew another raspberry. Izuku smiled, "I don't care that it's such a low level or that it's virtually useless right now. Your family has given me so much and I could never ask for such great people in my life. Thank you for everything." He began sobbing toward the end. Akito huffed his leg tighter and Seiren watched on letting him finish.
As soon as he calmed down, Seiren asked, "You ready you go back?"
Wiping his face down he answered, "Yeah. Let's go back."
Seiren opened a portal, and as Izuku tried walking he remembered. Looking down at Akito, "Can you let go?"
She grinned up at him, "Nope."
Letting out a sigh, he dragged his way through the portal trailing behind Seiren.
—
As they came through the other side Izuku looked at the clock, 'Only 20 minutes have passed. It's like it never happened.' He looked at Seiren, 'This girl will live forever.'
"Welcome back!" All Might, still in his deflated form greeted them.
Izuku, still lugging Akito, bowed to All Might and started apologizing, "I'm sorry for latching on to you when we first met, I now realize how annoying it is."
All Might looked down at his leg, and laughed, "All good my boy, it's how we met after all and I think you have a new fan." He looked down at Akito who nodded vigorously. He looked back up at Izuku who was slightly red.
"How did it go?" It was Hideki.
Seiren sitting down, "Great Izuku got to Level 15 and learned quite a few spells."
Akito also answered, "He's awesome!"
Izuku scratched his cheek, and let out a little laugh.
Looking between his daughters he asked, "What happened?"
Seiren answered, "Nothin, normal day, normal dungeon."
In a deadpan expression, "Then why is Akito becoming a barnacle on his leg and why is her hair black now?"
Akito blew raspberry at her father. Seiren easily lying, "He did something pretty cool and she took a liking to him."
Her father eyed her skeptically, then let out a small sigh, "Whatever, you're both safe." He looked over at Izuku. "Any more questions kid?"
Izuku thought about and shook his head. Bowing, "Thank you three for everything, and I hope your future is filled with happiness." Their father stood up bowed in kind and proceeded toward the door.
Seiren got up and handed a piece of paper to Izuku and told him, "If you need advice or want to go to the Shadowscape again. Let me know." she walked toward the door and waited with her father.
"Akito Let's go."
"No!"
"Akito!"
"No!" She was now almost cutting circulation to his leg.
"Don't make me get you!"
She gave her father a glare and a challenge, "Bring it old man."
Her father smiled and he suddenly erupted into dark hands that went for her. She cried out and pleaded, "Izuku help!"
Izuku chuckled and looked down at her, "I'm pretty sure that's not how it works."
"Betrayal!" He felt the tug of her strain as she was pulled away.
With Akito still floating midair and the both of them ready to leave, their father bowed to All Might, "Please make the kid the hero my wife thought he could be. Goodbye." He opened the door and walked out, the sisters waving goodbye to Izuku.
All Might watched them leave, "Did You have fun?"
—
Later that day
—
"Izuku my boy, I believe it is time." All Might had driven him to the beach he had spent the last 2 months cleaning.
"For what?"
All Might smiled and poofed into his muscle form, "It is time for you to receive One of All. I can't imagine a better time to start training harder than ever and to make a name for yourself at the entrance exam."
Izuku nodded, "I would be glad to take on the mantle."
Putting his hand on the young man's shoulder, "My boy this is not a mantle, this is torch. A name is a mantle, to be the last flickering light in the night is a calling. You my boy, are ready for it and will take it even further than I have already. I believe in you." He plucked a hair from his head.
[Quest Update! The new Torchbearer!
All Might has said you are ready to receive the quirk One for All. Follow his instructions to proceed.
Reward: One for All]
He swiped away the box and All Might held out a hair. Izuku looked at him in confusion, "What?"
"To receive One for All you need to take a sample of my DNA. Now eat this!"
Izuku took the hair and glancing at All Might, who was just staring at him. He had to think of what he was going to say, or ask. Should he tell All Might about the new quirk, which sounded like the opposite of the one given to him? He decided to come clean, "Sir, before this happens, I need to ask you something. Are you sure I'm right for this? I already feel like I have so much power with 2 quirks already, and the sisters are going to help me get a third, don't you think someone else would be better?"
All might lightly flicked his forehead, "My boy, you are more than worthy of this power, but if you wish to change your mind I must know. I'll give you tonight to think it over. Good Night."
All Might deflated and walked back to his car. Sighing he walked back home.
—
Izuku sat at his desk, waiting for something. A sign, anything. He really wanted to make All Might proud, but he didn't want to take the chance from someone else.
Sighing he stood up and walked toward the kitchen. He looked at his mom and wondered, 'What level is she?' "Observe."

'What is Quirk Rank?' He used Observe on his mom again and the only thing different was some wording next to the quirk. His mom had an A Level quirk, what does that mean? "Mom?"
"Yeah Hun?"
"With your quirk, how much did you train it?"
Inko looked embarrassed when she answered, "Well, not very much, when I was in school the only thing I could attract was a pencil on a neighbor's desk. Now I can get something from across the kitchen. Why do you ask?"
'So that means her Level is fairly low. Should I check what her quirk can do?' He stared a bit at her, making her feel uncomfortable, and asked, "Do you mind if I try something? I promise it won't harm you."
Inko smiled, "I don't mind honey, I trust you."
Reaching out and grabbing her shoulder, he activated Transfer.
[Quirk Absorbed! Telekinesis LvL: 1
This quirk allows for the ability to move objects and people with your mind.
Max weight: 1 Ounce
Max distance: 1 Meter]
'So his mom could probably only attract small objects thanks to her level being so low.' He looked at his mom again, she was giving him a confused look. He let go as the Duration ran out, "Mom I think your quirk is just really low level."
Inko still feeling confused, "What do you mean?"
"I just used my quirk on you and it said that at Level: 1 it could only pick up 1 ounce from a meter away. I think if you were to focus on leveling it and picking up heavier and further objects your quirk could get a lot stronger."
Inko gave a slightly blank stare, and then laughed, "Izuku, I'm much too old for that and what would I do with it now? I'm a stay at home mom?"
Izuku felt like smacking his forehead, 'Of course his mom wouldn't care.' Instead of hitting himself, he scratched the back of his head, "I guess you're right."
Inko turned back around to her cooking, "Well, dinner will be ready in a bit, so get cleaned up."
He nodded and walked to the bathroom.
—
The next morning
—
All Might had picked up like he said the next morning and upon entering the vehicle was asked, "My boy, have you come up with a decision?"
Izuku nodded as he got in, "I'm willing if you believe it's the best choice, I may not think I'm the greatest choice, but I'm willing to give it my all."
All Might grinned, "Excellent! Still got the hair?"
Izuku took it out of his pocket, he'd washed last night, "Right here."
"Down the hatch then."
Nodding, Izuku put it over his mouth and forced himself to swallow it. He tried to prevent the shiver, but it forced its way out. "That wasn't pleasant."
[Transferring of One for All in progress; 1 / 100%]
His mentor inflated and laughed, "Life isn't always pleasant! Though this for me is one of those times!"
Izuku couldn't stop the smile on his face. He was glad that All Might really wanted him to have it. He decided then he would train like the world would end before UA started. That brought up the question though, "All Might, where are we going?"
The smile stayed as he said cryptically, "Wait and see." He then deflated.
A minute or two had gone by before All Might spoke to him again, "Say, yesterday you said you had two quirks. How did you get another one?"
"Katherine left a book that I could absorb to gain her quirk. It's called Transference. It lets me take levels of another person's quirk."
All Might's jaw was agape, "So you can use the quirks?"
Izuku nodded, "As long as I know how the power works, but I only get 5 seconds with them right now."
"Looks like you have something new to train now. I would fear facing you in the future.", he shuddered.
Izuku let out a strained laugh.
—
[Location Found! U.A. High School 2 / ?]
"UA!" He looked over at All Might, "What are we doing here?"
All Might had a grin that rivaled his Muscle form, "We needed somewhere to train, and after asking the Headmaster, he allowed us to use one of the training courses."
"More like begged."
Izuku and All Might jumped in their seats and let out a small yell. All Might had freaked out enough he took on his muscle form. They looked in the back seat and saw the principal of UA sitting there.
"He actually begged me to use the training course. And knowing the destructive power of One for All, I said yes. Can't let you go around destroying objects in normal society now, can we?" He posed it as a question but didn't wait for an answer, and got out of the car.
Izuku looked over at All Might, "Did you know he was back there?"
All Might shook his head and deflated. "I would have said something if I knew."
There was a tap at the window. "You two coming or not?"
All Might sighed and both of them got out of the car.
"Now Izuku, you will be using an indoor training ground that Cementoss is able to fix very easily. I have already had him prepare a few weight for you, and a running track around the perimeter of the campus for you to run on. If you don't mind me asking Izuku, why were you hesitant to take the power in the first place?" He looked at the boy. Who looked at All Might, who nodded.
"He knows all about it kid."
Izuku looked back at Nezu and sighed, "I don't know, I feel like I have so much already and getting One for All on top of it is just seems like too much."
Nezu nodded, "Understandable, though you have to remember, you are extremely weak right now, are you not?" Izuku nodded. "Then you should take every advantage you have access to and train them all. It's also not like you can't pass on One for All, eventually. Just like All Might you'll eventually find someone who you believe will be right for the power."
Izuku thought about it, training some kid like himself. He didn't even know what to do right now! How was he going to train some random kid, let alone find them, how did Kat do it? All Might was an accident, so maybe he should just let fate decide? Or should he cheat fate and use some type of premonition quirk like Kat did. He felt a hand on his shoulder, looking over it was All Might.
"Don't worry about the future, focus on the now, and how to wield the power in you."
Calming down he nodded, "Thank you sir."
"No worries my boy."
"How long am I going to be training here?"
Nezu piped up, "Sunday only, every other day of the week it is used for normal students. So take full advantage of it."
All Might nodded, "The rest of the time will be spent cleaning the beach. After that's done, you will have free time during the week, focus on your other skills, take the girl up on her offer, and train even more."
Izuku thought about it, but after what happened the first time he was slightly hesitant. Maybe he could learn to properly fight? Or develop is own fighting style?
They continued to walk toward the training facility and upon reaching it they were met by two of the teachers. He could immediately identify Cementoss, but the other one didn't ring any bells.
"Ishiyama, Aizawa, to what do we owe the pleasure?"
Cementoss spoke first, "I didn't have much else to do, so I decided to come and watch for anything I need to repair."
Nezu nodded, "Much obliged, and yourself Aizawa? I'd assume you'd be sleeping right now."
The dark haired man sighed and grumbled, "Was planning on it, but then I overheard Cementoss speaking to Present Mic, about a kid who could destroy stuff. And knowing you, I would be stuck with him, so decided to see for myself."
Nezu nodded, "You're a great teacher." He then shoved Izuku forward who stumbled. "Well this is him. He has a quirk like All Might which is how he was found, and because of that there's no place for him to actually train. His name is Izuku." Aizawa gave him a lazy stare.
"Uh, nice to meet you, sir. And it's nice to meet you Mr. Cementoss."
Cementoss nodded, returning the greeting. Aizawa just stared at him, "What can you do?"
"Uh, hit stuff? Really hard?" He could feel the imaginary face palms.
Aizawa sighed, and looking at All Might, "This is your fault."
All Might sputtered, but didn't argue. Nezu, on the other hand laughed, and started walking inside. "Shall we begin?"
Izuku nodded, "Yes please."

This quirk allows you to access the stockpiled power of previous users and turn it into massive bonuses for physical stats.
Currently you have a 99% chance of breaking any bone used in conjunction with One for All. This chance is reduced at level ups.
This quirk requires a 100 in all physical stats to be used.]
'Wow. Wonder what the bonus is.'
Walking into the dome, he was met by a huge amount of different stones shaped into weights and lots of stone pillars made of square boulders.
Cementoss walked up to him, "I tried to make the standard workout equipment, but be careful a lot of the equipment is much heavier than it looks. The pillars easily come apart and are meant for punching. Have fun!" He smiled and walked off into the bleachers.
Aizawa with Nezu on his shoulder just walked past him to the bleachers. Nezu gave him a thumbs up. All Might walked up next to him, and started ordering him to do things. He later joined the rest of the teachers.

"What's his Quirk?" It was Aizawa.
All Might answered, "He has a grab bag quirk. He can do a number of things, one of them is to accurately assess his own and others strength. He's also able to increase his strength exponentially, like my own, and another I believe is he can take quirks of others."
Aizawa stares at him, "Why is he just training this now? Did he even go to school?"
"He manifested the physical side of his quirk little over a month ago, after he met me. I'm sure you remember the supermarket incident?" Aizawa nodded, "After dealing with the press, I went to talk with the boy about what he did and reprimand him. Talked to him for awhile and helped him figure out part of his quirk. I've been working with him for the past month on it and he finally got to the point where we can't really work outside anymore."
Aizawa hummed, "How did he learn about the quirk stealing?"
"I don't know, it happened when he was at home."
Aizawa stared at All Might for a second, and turned back toward the boy training. "Sure."

2 Hours Later
—
Izuku had been working at for a few hours, Aizawa alongside Cementoss had dozed off, Nezu was working on a laptop. All Might was currently walking toward him.
"Say how did Gamer effect One for All?"
"Uh it says I can gain a bonus to my stats from accessing it, but I have a 99% chance to break my bones."
"You once said Gamer had bonuses at certain levels. Does One for All have any?"
"Let me check. Upgrades. Quirks."
[Quirks: Gamer, Transference, One for All, ? (Locked)
(See below for the long list.)]
"It says I can get something called Full Cowl once One for All reaches Level 15. The levels after that are all question marks."
All Might put his hand to his chin, and hummed, "How long would it take you to reach that point?"
Izuku thought back, "According to the sisters, it takes 10 times longer, to level a quirk. So I'm guessing a very long time."
Humming again, "Why don't we get started?" He grinned at Izuku.
Eyes widening, "Are you sure sir?"
All Might nodded, "Go for it, break down the pillars."
Walking over to the massive pillars, and he reached out and touched it. "How do you activate your power sir?" He kind of whispered this to All Might.
Smiling he answered, "Clench your glutes and with all your heart scream 'Smash!'". He punched the air while saying this.
'Ok I can do this.'
"I'll be with the teachers, Good Luck."
Watching him walk away and finally sitting down, Izuku stared at his fist. Talking to himself quietly, "Ok, let's do this." Pulling his arm back, he screamed out Smash and punched the stone pillar. Multiple things happened, the first was he got a notification saying that his arm broke, the next was that the bottom block of the pillar shattered into many pieces. The last was he was thrown back by the air pressure of the block above it falling straight down to replace the bottom.
As he laid there, he looked at his Xp gauge for One for All. A single punch like that gave 10% of XP, great. He didn't catch what the bonus he got was, but he assumed it was massive, if the result was anything to go by.
He heard a commotion behind him and looking back, he saw that a few more teachers had showed up. He would have been excited if it was for the fact that most of them looked ready for a fight. Nezu quickly made his way down, talking loud enough for everyone to hear.
"It's okay everyone, just some training going on. Though, I have to congratulate you all on keeping up with training yourself. You got here in under a minute!" Izuku could hear the mirth in his voice.
"Who's training? All Might?" He couldn't see who said that.
Nezu laughed, while All Might walked back down and helped him up. "Close, but it's actually a kid he found. All Might took him under his wing and is currently training him."
A few of the teachers looked at All Might helping him up, when they made it to them Izuku bowed and introduced himself, he apologized for the disturbance, he had caused. A few grumbled accepting the apology and walked off. A handful though after accepting the apology had walked over the bleachers were Aizawa, in his sleeping bag, was sitting.
Nezu turned to Izuku, looked at his hand and asked, "That looks like it hurts, do we need Recovery Girl to come?"
Izuku shook his head, "I can deal with it." He touched his arm with his free hand and casted, "[Emergency Aid]". He got the notification for a new status and watched as his arm slow fixed itself. It felt weird to see and feel bone realign without any help.
Nezu gazes at his arm in fascination, "You left that out of your report All Might."
All Might scratching the back of his head, "Honestly I didn't know he could do that."
Nodding he walked back toward the teachers and sat down to talk with them. "Should I keep going?", asked Izuku.
All might nodded, "I think they expect a show, so why not give it to them?"
"I got some new spells, or should I focus on One for All?"
"How about both?", He said this with a grin.
Izuku could get behind that. Time for fireworks.

Chapter 5 Done!
I'm sure someone saw that coming, and I will be explaining what is going on with that eventually. It's just going to be slow. Have a fun week!
Also if you have any suggestions for Qualities or upgrades for other heroes or villains I would love to hear them! I honestly don't care how ridiculous your ideas get, if I like them I'll figure something out.
