I, without any personality, become a hero!

Rather than attacking this heroic society from the outside, it is a wiser approach to divide it from within.

Chapter 170 The Real Purpose

"Yue Shan, look at this!"

Ochako Uraraka, from Class A of the Hero Course at U.A. High School, suddenly moved closer to Yuu Gakuyama and handed her her phone.

"Who is the real hero?" A huge headline, and the news content discusses the heated topic that has arisen in society since Izuku Midoriya's actions were exposed... Basically, all the news is discussing this matter now.

"It's this again...?"

"Yes, all the news topics right now are about Midoriya-kun."

The two girls were happy that Izuku Midoriya's name could be cleared and recognized by the public, but... when they thought of what Aizawa-sensei had said not long ago, Ochako and Yuu Takeyama suddenly couldn't be happy anymore.

A week has passed since the "Butcher" incident, and news about Izuku Midoriya himself has spread wildly on television and the internet. Even if the heroes and the police wanted to stop it, they couldn't, or rather, many people simply didn't intend to suppress the situation.

Just as All Might is a "symbol of peace," Izuku Midoriya's current actions can be seen as another kind of symbol: "a symbol of heroism."

Many people were inspired and motivated by what he did. The vast majority of them were citizens who had been hurt by the "enemy," and many professional heroes also expressed their support for Izuku Midoriya. They were also people who, to varying degrees, harbored hatred towards the "enemy."

"Heroes don't need to abide by the law; truly protecting the innocent is about severely punishing the 'enemy.'"

This slogan, which no one knows who started, has been spreading like wildfire in society. Many people agree with this view, and even the general public feels that current professional heroes should be like Izuku Midoriya in order to be considered true heroes.

Izuku Midoriya is currently in the spotlight, with many citizens... and even some professional heroes publicly expressing their support for his actions. A true hero should be like him.

This news naturally reached everyone at U.A. High School. The students in Class A were incredibly happy and excited; their beloved Izuku Midoriya hadn't changed at all—he was still the same true hero. Just as everyone was eager to cheer for Midoriya, their homeroom teacher, Shota Aizawa, arrived…

"You've probably all heard about the news online, right?"

"Understood. Midoriya-kun certainly lived up to everyone's trust!"

After Iida, the class representative, answered on behalf of everyone in the class, Aizawa-sensei's next words shocked everyone.

"I regret to inform you that Izuku Midoriya has now been designated as the most dangerous 'enemy'."

"What!!?"

The entire class was stunned and speechless. Was Aizawa-sensei making fun of them? Izuku Midoriya was currently supported and endorsed by many people, so why was he being labeled the most dangerous "enemy"? Shouldn't they be trying to clear his name?!

"Midori's actions were not wrong, but what he did severely damaged the 'hero society.' If we let him continue like this, the order of this society will likely collapse."

"In short, I've already told you about this... From now on, as students of U.A. High, you must at least maintain a neutral stance and not post any messages supporting Midoriya online. Also..."

Shota Aizawa glanced at Ochako, Yuu Gakuyama, Bakugo, and Todoroki, and slowly said:

"If any of you know anything about Midoriya, please tell me. Heroes and police are both eager to arrest him."

.............

Finally, Aizawa Shota left, while the four people who had just been called out kept their mouths tightly shut, unable to utter a single word... This news was too painful for them; why did things turn out this way?

------------------

Inside Nighteye's office, All Might, along with other heroes and police officers, gathered for an emergency meeting.

"I said, he's just a kid, is it really necessary to make such a fuss?"

Endeavor said irritably, his flames rising with his temper. He had rushed over immediately after receiving All Might's urgent request for help, only to find himself sitting around a table discussing the affairs of some young upstart, which made him slightly annoyed.

"Endeavor, I'm not joking this time, this is very serious!"

All Might slammed his fist on the table, his face devoid of its usual humorous and cheerful expression. Now, his brows were furrowed as he pondered the matter concerning Izuku Midoriya.

"All Might, please speak."

No. 5 "Paper Peak Archer" Ekishut nodded politely. He had also rushed here after receiving the emergency request for help from No. 1 hero. All Might's expression already showed the seriousness of the incident.

"Leave this to me."

Nighteye, the owner of "Nighteye Agency" and All Might's former assistant, appeared before everyone and solemnly addressed them:

"I'm sure everyone knows what my personality is like, right?"

"I remember it was about 'predicting the future,' what's wrong... Did you see something bad?"

Endeavor, who knew a little about what was going on around All Might, turned his gaze to Nighteye with annoyance. Nighteye's "quirk" had helped All Might a lot in the past.

"I see a terrible future..."

After telling all the heroes about the "future vision" he saw in Izuku Midoriya, he was met with a completely silent and desolate scene.

"You're not conspiring with All Might to trick us, are you?!"

Endeavor slammed his fist on the table and stood up abruptly, the flames on his body erupting in a fit of rage, making him look like a fire god.

"That kid who defeated Shoto is indeed quite capable, but to say he could even defeat All Might? Do you think I'm an idiot?!"

"No...this future will be real."

A pained All Might slowly revealed to everyone present the truth about All For One. Although he had kept his own One For All a secret, everyone now knew that there was a terrifying enemy who possessed the ability to steal other people's Quirks.

Now there was complete silence. When Endeavor heard that All Might had to be seriously injured to defeat the guy called All For One, he calmly sat down... He knew very well that if he were to fight All Might, he probably wouldn't even be able to touch the hem of the strongest No. 1's clothes and would be instantly killed.

The harder Endeavor tried to catch up, the clearer it became that the gap between him and Allmight was as vast as a mountain.

Having learned that there are such terrifying individuals within the League of Villains, everyone is now forced to calmly sit down and consider this issue. It seems that Hero Society is truly facing its greatest crisis yet.

"Midori-kun... All For One used this kid, and I know exactly what he's thinking!"

All Might clenched his fists as he thought back to a long time ago... before he became a hero, when his master and others were fighting desperately against that man's dark era.

The government was weak, lacking both enforcement power and security guarantees. At that time, heroes and enemies were actually quite similar. The only difference was that enemies acted recklessly because of their personalities, while heroes used their power to protect the innocent and kill the enemy.

Therefore, the heroes of that era were more admired and supported by the innocent, because they were the true "heroes" who wanted to protect others.

However, this won't work. The number of heroes is always limited, and most are enemies who use their "quirks" to do evil. Therefore, All Might had no choice but to take action.

Every time, he makes a dazzling appearance, defeats the enemy, and then hands them over to the police and government for conviction. All Might fully cooperates with the government to gradually reduce the crime rate in this society. More and more people imitate All Might's actions, and thus the "professional hero" was born.

The government and the law are more capable of providing security for ordinary citizens. Even a hero like Allmight has his limits; he must work with the government to ensure that the law is deeply ingrained in everyone's mind.

Ultimately, we now live in a heroic society. Although there are still countless enemies causing trouble and evil, compared to the dark ages of the past, it is now a much better place...

All For One's purpose is obvious: he wants to use Izuku Midoriya to break the current system and return everything to the chaos of the past.

Chapter 171 Signs

"What do you want to do!?"

The news that was causing a stir online naturally reached Izuku Midoriya, who was in the League of Villains. He clearly realized that this matter was unusual, so he immediately went to find the mastermind behind this situation, all for one.

"Of course I'll lend you a hand, Midoriya-kun."

"Damn it... I don't need your interference!"

Izuku Midoriya, clenching his fists in extreme anger, is now the subject of a deluge of online discussions, with almost everyone supporting his actions and demanding that the government give the "Steel Wire Reaper" justice.

Although all of this seemed to be in his best interest... Midoriya understood very well that if the government really backed down and cleared his name... then the entire social order would likely collapse next.

"Midori-kun, you seem to have made a mistake?"

Facing the angry Midoriya, All For One calmly began to speak.

"The people voluntarily and proactively supported you. They made their choice after learning about your actions because you are the 'hero' they truly recognize."

“I didn’t even have to exert much effort in this process; I simply had the reporters report the facts about you truthfully, and the result is exactly what you see.”

"asshole........"

He was so angry he was grinding his teeth, but Midoriya understood that All For One was right. Although it was this bastard who set a trap for him, it was Midoriya Izuku's own choice to jump in without hesitation. He really hadn't expected things to turn out this way.

I never expected my actions would spark such a huge controversy in this society, with even most citizens and professional heroes supporting my actions. This was something I never anticipated... But if this continues, I'm afraid society will descend into chaos.

So there's only one solution now: Midoriya is preparing to leave the League of Villains to face All Might. Only if he is arrested by the heroes and the police can this chaotic conflict be completely quelled.

"Midori-kun, you probably want to turn yourself in to the heroes and the police to end this situation, right?"

However, All For One, who had already seen through everything, simply smiled and said this to Midoriya.

"So what if I am?... I never said I'd sell my life to the League of Villains."

"Of course, I won't stop you from doing whatever you want, Midoriya-kun, but do you really think you can end this conflict?"

Still all for one, all smiles. Midoriya stopped in his tracks, slowly turning back to ask the man who was the culprit:

"......What's the meaning?"

"Midori-kun, your existence is merely the fuse that ignites all of this. If you are arrested by the heroes and the police, this chaos will only erupt more violently."

"......"

Facing Midoriya, who was all for one, he lowered his head and clenched his fists tightly... This man was right... This was all just the culmination of a long period of build-up.

"You must know how desperate and heartbroken the families of those innocent people killed by the enemy are, right?"

AFO's words pierced his heart like needles, and Midoriya lowered his head so much that he couldn't even lift it up. He thought of the innocent person harmed by "The Butcher," his young wife weeping in sorrow, and his four-year-old daughter, who was oblivious to the world and just wanted to wait for her father to come home.

"There are even heroes who sacrificed themselves to protect the innocent, you should know what that's like, right?"

Kota... His parents, Waterhouse, were killed by the enemy. This boy has always hated the profession of hero and the hero society that caused his parents to lose their lives and leave him behind.

"The reason why everyone is now erupting is because of this unreasonable hero society. You are also a victim in it, which is why they resonate with you and are willing to support you and speak out."

"If you turn yourself in and get arrested, chaos will probably erupt immediately, since everyone has been holding a grudge for a long time."

When Midoriya Izuku heard the words "all for one," he immediately deflated. This man really had everything planned out; it made him want to punch him.

“Midori-kun, you’re not going to be alone anymore. You’re carrying the hopes of everyone on your shoulders.”

"Everyone hopes to follow your example and completely correct and reform this unreasonable hero society!"

The words "all for one" had already thrown Midoriya into a state of confusion. Although he knew the man before him was unreliable... everything was clearly laid bare before him. Even before he dreamed of becoming a hero, Midoriya had long been aware of the dark side of hero society, but previously he had only witnessed it and felt helpless in its presence...

But now that he truly understands the expectations everyone has placed on him, and even though he himself has experienced these things, he hesitates.

"Of course, we must admit that All Might's actions and methods were not wrong, but the wrong ones are the laws of this hero society and the people who created these laws with selfish desires."

Unexpectedly, Izuku Midoriya heard All For One agree with All Might's words, and he couldn't help but look at the man strangely, but this completely changed his attitude.

"I'll think about it..."

Izuku Midoriya, who had just left the AFO office, was in a state of confusion. He needed to sort things out before he could make a decision, as this was not a trivial matter that could be decided in one go.

.................

A while after Midoriya left, All For One tapped his forehead with his fingers, looking somewhat annoyed, and muttered helplessly:

"It's so annoying. If only Midoriya listened to me like he does with Toru. It's a pity that the kid idolizes All Might, so in the end I have to say that I agree with that bastard just to get away with it."

"Well... it's not exactly a lie. It's precisely because Midoriya-kun is so smart that he was able to figure out what to do. This is indeed a good opportunity to reform hero society."

"Of course... it's also an opportunity to destroy this heroic society!"

All For One, with a terrifying smile on his face, knows that reforming the system could easily lead to his own destruction if not handled carefully, because he holds the most crucial trump card.

"Right, All Might... you should have already found out, right? Shigaraki Tomura is 'Shimura Tenko'."

--------------

Meanwhile, at Nighteye's Agency, the emergency meeting of heroes concluded, and Endeavor and the other top ten heroes all left to return to their respective agencies. They needed to make urgent preparations for this matter.

As All Might prepared to return to U.A. High School, Inspector Takunai called him aside.

"Takunai, is there something you need?"

"All Might, the matter you asked me to handle... has been investigated and resolved."

After saying this, Officer Takunai handed the file in his hand to Allmight.

After taking the document from Officer Takunai, Allmight quickly flipped through it, and the textual information inside was clear at a glance.

"Shigaraki Tomura... he really is Shimura Tenko, my master's grandson..."

After confirming the news, the document fell from All Might's hands, his face contorted with pain and despair. Ever since All Might heard All For One mention this, he had been holding a grudge.

Master "Nana Shimura"... All Might feels that the only person he has wronged is his mentor who passed on "one for all" to him. In order to delay his own growth, Nana Shimura desperately held off the man when all for one came knocking on his door.

All Might, who was only 18 years old at the time, fled to the United States to escape the influence of All For One. In order to prevent the bloodline of Nana Shimura from dying out, All Might's teacher, Gran Torino, placed Nana Shimura's child in the care of relatives.

After returning to Japan, All Might fought a life-or-death battle with All For One for a long time. In order to avoid implicating his master Nana Shimura's child, All Might and Gran Torino did not take the initiative to seek out and contact him.

At this point...all·for·one found Shimura Tenko, the grandson of "Shimura Nana", now known as Shigaraki Tomura.
