Quirkless Hero

Kurogiri's portal opened again, and everyone from the League of Villains—Toga Himiko, Dabi, the magician—arrived at the abandoned factory. They watched with curiosity as Midoriya Izuku, battered and bruised, fought the muscular man.

"Watch carefully. This is Midoriya Izuku. He will be one of you in the future."

A smile appeared on All For One's face. Now, it was necessary to introduce their future leader to the League of Villains.

"Steel Wire Death God? Doesn't look anything like what we saw on the news."

Dabi watched Midoriya Izuku below, struggling to dodge the muscular man's attacks with his body covered in bruises and blood.

"I... I'm in love!!"

Toga Himiko's face flushed bright red. Seeing Midoriya covered in blood made her heart race. She shyly covered her face... She wanted to see more of Midoriya bleeding.

"Does the boss really care about this kid that much?"

Shigaraki Tomura was curious. It was the first time he had seen All For One so concerned about someone else. He wondered what made this Midoriya Izuku kid so special.

...

At the center of the abandoned factory, Midoriya Izuku was fighting for his life. Despite the muscular man not daring to attack with lethal force due to All For One's orders, his powerful punches still packed a serious punch.

Midoriya, desperately dodging, relied only on his faster reflexes and speed. But his attacks were ineffective against the muscular man's muscle fiber protection.

However, the muscular man wasn't focused on Midoriya Izuku. He was tired of the annoying kid and just wanted to kill the 'Wothers' child so he could save his own life.

The muscular man's muscles expanded, and suddenly his right arm grew huge. He swatted Midoriya Izuku aside and charged toward Kouta, who was hiding at a distance.

"Little brat, this time you'll meet your parents in hell!" 

The muscle-bound man laughed manically, ready to crush Kouta, who was on the verge of tears from fear. But just as he was about to strike, someone came rushing in faster.

"Bajiquan: Iron Mountain Smash!"

Midoriya Izuku, charging in full speed, used all his strength to land a powerful blow. He hit the muscle man before he could reach Kouta, sending him flying and crashing into Nomu's cultivation tank, smashing it into pieces.

"Don't come near him, you scum!"

Midoriya Izuku yelled angrily, but his right arm hung limply. The force of the Iron Mountain Smash had been immense, and the recoil had almost completely destroyed his arm.

"I've changed my mind!"

Shoving aside the half-formed Nomu, the muscle man stood up, glaring at Midoriya Izuku. He looked up at the second floor and asked All for One:

"You said as long as that brat doesn't die, it's fine, right?"

"No problem, I keep my word."

All for One responded with a smile. With his "Regeneration" Quirk, even if Midoriya Izuku had only a breath left, he could heal him perfectly. So, he thought it would be more entertaining to let the show go on a little longer.

"Good, then let's have some fun. This time, I'll really enjoy it! Steel-wire kid!"

The muscle man grinned bloodthirstily and charged at Midoriya Izuku, sneering:

"This time, I'll beat you until you're left with just one breath, and you won't be able to get up."

Despite his terrible condition, Midoriya Izuku remained silent and charged toward the muscle man once again. His goal was simple:

Protect Kouta!

Even if it was his last breath, he had to protect this kid!

The two collided, their fists meeting. Midoriya's right arm swelled up, his skin tearing open and blood spraying out, but he gritted his teeth and swung his left arm, aiming for the muscle man.

The muscle man easily blocked Midoriya's punch, mocking him:

"A 'quirkless' brat trying to fight me, an 'enhanced' type? Without your troublesome steel wires and armor, do you think you can win?"

"It's not about winning..."

Midoriya dodged the muscle man's punch, enduring the excruciating pain all over his body, and gritted his teeth, shouting in fury:

"It's about having to win!!"

"A hero is someone who can break through any crisis."

These were the words All Might had said, and Midoriya Izuku had always kept them in his heart. He would never give up hope, never go down easily. A hero was someone who risked their life to protect others.

"Ahhh!!"

Midoriya's roar was full of desperation. He stopped thinking about tactics or dodging attacks. His only goal now was to take down this muscle-bound bastard before he fell.

He took more damage but didn't care. He couldn't inflict meaningful harm on the muscle man, but that didn't matter. He had to defeat this enemy now.

The muscle man threw another punch aimed at Midoriya's head, but Midoriya bit down on his fist, holding on tightly. Blood dripped down as he clenched his teeth.

The muscle man froze for a moment. He pulled his fist back with a furious shake, seeing deep tooth marks and blood dripping from the wound. His anger flared, and he shouted:

"You're asking for death!!"

"You've finally been hurt and are bleeding..."

Midoriya's words, combined with his own blood, made the muscle man even more enraged. He swung his fists relentlessly, pummeling Midoriya Izuku, who was beaten like a punching bag.

"Mi... Midoriya..."

Kouta knelt on the ground, tears streaming down his face as he watched the hero fighting desperately to protect him, even though he was covered in blood and wounds. He couldn't give up... He couldn't give up!

"Don't lose!"

A weak stream of water shot into the muscle man's left eye, distracting him and drawing his attention to the small boy. 

Kouta's legs trembled in fear, but he stood as firm as he could and shouted:

"Don't lose to the bad guys who killed your parents, you're a hero!" 

"You little brat!" 

The muscular man's bloodthirsty gaze shifted to Kouta. He couldn't hold back anymore and was about to go over and kill the little brat left behind by "Waterhouse."

"Ah! Of course..." 

Kouta attacked the muscular man with a stream of water. While it didn't hurt the enemy, the rushing water did help wake up Midoriya Izuku a little. He answered Kouta and then roared at the muscular man in front of him:

"Heroes don't lose to Villain!!"

Midoriya Izuku tightly gripped the enemy's arms. The muscular man suddenly turned around, shocked by this kid's strength!

He was being suppressed. The muscular man, who had the "muscle fibers" Quirk, was being overpowered by a "Quirkless" Midoriya Izuku!?

The huge difference in strength made the muscular man use his hot blood, his momentum, and everything he had to make up for it!!

The sound of bones creaking and the unbearable pain in his body didn't stop Midoriya Izuku. Even if it meant risking his life, he would defeat the enemy in front of him!

The muscular man, who was being slowly suppressed, was filled with shock and confusion... What was going on with this kid!?

All For One was equally surprised. This wasn't the Quirk he had given Midoriya Izuku, but the boy had managed to suppress a "power enhancement-type" Quirk with his own strength. This was unbelievable!

"Heroes are people who must defeat their enemies!!"

Midoriya Izuku's roar, fueled by life-burning strength, forced the muscular man's arms down. At the same moment, he threw a powerful punch!

Though his right arm was broken, Midoriya Izuku poured all his power, momentum, passion, and belief into that punch!

The stunned muscular man was hit hard in the jaw by Midoriya Izuku's full-force punch!

He was knocked flying!

The muscular man crashed violently against a wall of the abandoned factory, shattering several cultivation tanks before collapsing to the ground, motionless.

"Midoriya! Midoriya!!"

Kouta, tears streaming down his face, was overwhelmed with emotion. This was his hero's victory!

"That's amazing... Now I finally understand why All Might values you so much!"

All For One exclaimed. He had been half-skeptical about Nezu's prediction of the future, but now, without hesitation, he realized this boy could become a hero greater than All Might. 

However, if he became an enemy, he would be the "Grim Reaper" everyone feared.
