Chapter 106
Title: Divine Gift…
…..
Kirishima looked up at the cement barrier that cast a veil of shadow all over them. Honestly, he didn’t know if his body could handle that amount of damage, but he couldn’t say no to Kaminari when he seemed worse for wear and half dead.
Ever since he could remember, Kaminari had always been the image of excellence. It wasn’t his Electricity Quirk that made him special… no, it was everything else. But even to this day, Kirishima remembers how Kaminari helped him become a Hero just when he was about to give up.
“Hey, Kaminari, do you think I can become a Hero?” Asked Kirishima, the same question that he had asked just before they started U.A, it seemed like an eternity ago now.
Kaminari smiled. “No… you are already a Hero, Kirishima, no need to doubt yourself anymore. As long as you believe that you can do it, then your body will follow.”
Amongst the dust, All For One rose once again as Aizawa and the others had gone away. In the panic, not noticing that Eijiro and Kaminari had stayed behind.
The villain looked at them and Eijiro was fully on guard. All For One dusts himself off and cracks his neck.
“Oy, red hair boy. How about you give me your friend and I will let you live.” AFO smirked, looking at Kaminari’s downed form. He felt ecstasy at the thought of crushing what he considered to be his greatest enemy.
“You are not getting past me!” Yelled Eijiro, ready to tank any attack that the villain might make. ‘I am scared. But it doesn’t matter, I trust Kaminari and whatever plan he has. He will do it, even if it seems impossible.’
Kaminari on the other hand smirked at this and got us casually, as usual, his haggard appearance made even All For One terrified. ‘What a monstrous kid, he has no Quirk and is half dead. How the hell is he even alive and still getting up?!’
AFO couldn’t handle the situation, it felt like he was looking at a demon. ‘I must kill this young man right here or I won’t be able to sleep for the rest of my life.’
Even while he looked at Kaminari, the villain’s mind was in shambles. He no longer saw just a yellow-haired kid, instead, the figure was covered in darkness with two red lights at where his eyes should be.
“I HAVE TO KILL YOU!!” Yelled out AFO as he charged.
Eijiro had no time to react as he was bashed aside, and even though the red-haired hero’s defense was not broken, he was still thrown quite far away.
Just like so, AFO had grabbed Kaminari by the throat and lifted him. “Time to die kid.”
Kaminari on the other hand touched the villain’s hand and smirked. “You are quite stupid aren’t you. A lifetime of power has made you blind to how the weak fight.”
Instantly lightning started leaking out of AFO’s body. “WHAT?!!” The man was shocked by it, the Electrification Quirk was self-activating forcefully. Also at the same time, the villain started hearing Kaminari’s voice inside his head.
“{A Quirk is part of someone’s body}” said the strange whispery voice. “{I was already inside of you ever since that time. Slowly driving you mad. You never stood a chance old man.}”
This was one of the weaknesses of the All For One Quirk. Because while it can still steal Quirks, it also gets a part of their consciousness, usually people would give their Quirks to AFO or they would be stolen, but even then the villain was careful what Quirks he would keep active inside of himself. But he overlooked one thing, and that was Kaminari, while his Quirk was powerful even in its initial speed-enhancing developments… the Quirk itself was a representation of its user. Kaminari had put countless hours of training on his Quirk, and just because it was outside of his body it didn’t mean that it still wasn’t his Quirk that was there.
That combined with the torture that AFO had been under, both mental and physical, had broken him. Adding on a part of Kaminari’s consciousness inside of his mind was the breaking point.
“You thought it was all your free will, didn’t you?” Asked Kaminari smirking, “From the very beginning, it wasn’t you that wanted to hunt me down. It was my Quirk wanting to come back to its true owner. You already were my puppet old man, so why don’t we make that a little more official.”
Sparks come out of Kaminari’s hands as they are both touching One For All and his face.
<OVERHAUL>
*BOOOOOOM!!*
That was when Gigantomachia broke through the cement barrier and crashed down in the ground. It destroyed everything around it, just the wind created from the landing was able to throw Eijiro even further away while he tried to reach Kaminari.
‘Damn it!! Why can’t I even listen to such a simple request from someone who saved me!!’ Thought Eijiro shamefully as he was blown away. But none of the villains paid any attention to that.
“Hell yeah!! Time to roll out!!” Yelled out one of the High-End Nomu, now having a clear speech pattern, showing the way that it had evolved now.
“Sensei?” Shigaraki looked around, feeling something amiss. But even he couldn’t see clearly due to the heavy dust around, instead, he used some sensing Quirk and determined that there was one living in the vicinity.
He waved his hand and a strong wind was created from it, clearing all of the dust away. There he saw his teacher, his suit was ruined and he was bleeding from everywhere, but Shigaraki felt uneasy while looking at him.
“Master!!” Gigantomachia on the other hand didn’t think too much and charged towards his master while tears polled out of his eyes. Everyone else jumped off his back as he did so.
The ground shook with every rushed step the creature took. Spinner was annoyed at this. “Tch, what a self-centered idiot.”
When Gigantomachia was about to reach All For One, Shigaraki suddenly had an epiphany and his eyes widened in shock. “WAIT!! GIGANTOMACHIA STOP!!”
But the giant of a man didn’t listen, only his master mattered to him now and he was in front of him. All For One smiled as he looked at the charging beast. “Gigantomachia… long time no see.”
He then extended his hand and touched the creature’s hand.
*BURST!*
The giant’s body popped like a balloon filled with flesh and guts.
Shigaraki looked at his ‘sensei’ and narrowed his eyes in suspicion.
“You are not sensei!” He acclaimed.
All For One smirked at that. “Ah~ really? I thought that I made a pretty good impression of him.”
“Who are you?!” Asked a new voice, coming out of one of the High-End Nonu’s with a giant mouth.
“Bahahahahaha!!” ‘AFO’ laughed, he sounded so joyful, like a kid who just got told that he could eat all the candy that he wanted.
“Divine gifts do not come from a higher power…” AFO said as his body started morphing, yellow hair spurting in his bald head, and his burned face started morphing into a young man with yellow eyes. “Divine gifts come from our own mind.”
The body morphed into Kaminari and he even had a suit on, like the ones that All For One usually wore. He then pointed his hand at Shigaraki. “I just got this power… but let me show you the difference between us… Shigaraki -chan.”
