-OCTOBER-

[Izuku POV]

Standing in front of the trash kingdom, a perfect representation of society also known as Takoba Municipal Beach Park is everyone's maybe favorite green haired protagonist dressed in a grey shirt that said "Shirt", black thermal gloves, black shorts and the iconic red shoes, looking at the distance like it's going to change his life at fucking 3am in the morning!

"Alright, let's begin. So, since I'm too poor to afford a gym membership, this will have to do. I'm sure I should use Saitama's training schedule to at least buff myself up and make my body even stronger, though a leaner build will suit me better so no need to do anything too drastic." Let's go. With that, I start carrying some trash away and maybe I just say it's way heavier than it looks. Come on you useless body, don't start giving up on me. After clearing a small section that might as well be 1% of the beach, I immediately drop down in a push up position and start the workout of a lifetime. "One, two..."

-2 minutes later-

"Come on...c-come on... almost.... at 15...come on...think of the ladies in U.A..THINK OF MIRKO'S THIGHS AT LEAST...Gah!.." I drop to the sandy ground, disgusted at my own weak muscle mass.* "So..huff...glad I did that... huff..10km run before getting here...whooh..." No way in hell am I losing the chance to be able to avoid destroying my bones, cause my body is in the middle of a fucking competition with a damn stick insect...and yet, I'm losing. "COME ON, LET'S DO THIS! 16...17...18...!"

-4 hours later-

Progress: I managed to clean 1.2% of the damn beach and complete the Saitama workout without dying. After practically crawling my way to my house and devouring the food my 'Mom' cooked, I made it to school or should I say, Doofenshmirtz's support campaign and decided to begin my daily dose of trauma and oh, boy I swear on Mineta's porn stash, I will thrive in beating Bakugo's ass in U.A, Quirk or no Quirk. After that annoyance, I head back to the beach to continue where I left off, start the 10km run, clean more parts of the beach and complete the other workout sessions.

{Training Schedule}

•Wake Up: 2:40AM-3:00AM.

•Clean Takoba and Train: 3:00AM-7:00AM.

•School: 9:00AM-4:00PM.

•Extra Training: 4:00PM-8:00PM.

•Dinner, Talk with Mom, Homework and Rest: 9:00PM-2:40AM.

Honestly, this looks good in my optimistic eyes.

-APRIL-

[Izuku POV]

I'll be honest, after 6 months of self torture you might as well call me Jason Todd, heh, I looked good. Standing at 5'9", an inch taller than BaKatsuki, longer and fluffier green hair that reaches my shoulder blades (I just like having long hair, don't judge me), cheeks lost most of it's baby fat turning me from cute to cute and hot and green eyes that are now slightly sharper after seeing my browser history, thus losing its innocence. Then there's the bod and God, Saitama's training schedule did me justice. Lean, muscular physique with 6 pack abs, mmmm, I'd eat myself due to being so scrumptious. I've also managed to clean 83% of the beach with a lot of ungrateful bastards starting to show up more. Good thing, I recorded myself doing it so no one can take credit. But enough about that, so I'm basically just standing in front of All Might after the whole Sludge Villain incident transpired and men did it feel good to make BaKatsuki's already fragile ego crumble.

All Might(Toshi): "Young Midoriya, you cleaned...all of this?" He says as he stare at the almost clean beach in shock.

Izuku: I nod and smile as I follow his gaze. "Yup. Someone had to do it if the heroes weren't going to. Plus it makes for a good training ground."

Toshi looked at me in astonishment before chuckling and turning towards me. "Right, a hero is more than fighting villains. Simple acts like this show their true self." He continued to sweep the area as if to check if this is real. "Young Midoriya, can you please take off your shirt? I need to confirm something before we proceed."

Now normally, I'd call Child Protection Services and have this man taken to jail along with Diddy. But since I know the reason, I make now reason to argue and just take off my shirt. There's a glimpse of suprise in his eyes since he wasn't expecting a Quirkless kid, much less this young to be this jacked and honestly, I don't blame him. I've been wearing loose fitting and baggy clothes to hide them and not draw attention from some rather... aggressive company.

With a poof of smirk, he undergoes a Power Rangers type transformation in under a second. All Might: "Holy Moly, you're incredibly fit. Your body is ready to receive my Quirk and just in time too, since there's only 10 months left before the U.A. Entrance exams. So, Midoriya I bestow upon you my Quirk."

*Ah, here comes the gross part.*

All Might: All Might pluckes a single hair strand from his hair and holds it in front of me before saying with full confidence. "Eat this."

...

...

...

...

Like no explanation, just "EAT THIS" bro...

After pretty much giving him the deadest deadpan expression of the century, I swallow the hair strand and try not to think about it by remembering I cleaned trash for 6 months. Alright, mission accomplished. I've been given One For All and now, I just have to talk to vestiges. I hope they don't look into my memories or I swear I'll show them all the fanfics about them.

Back at home, I immediately start powering One For All on and off like a light switch, trying to give it better activation speeds. It hurts but I was determined to master this Quirk better than Deku ever could. My current limit of Full Cowling is 35% of One For All which makes a lot of sense considering I'm many times more jacked than Deku was during the Entrance Exams, so my body can handle the strain.

Izuku: "Alright, let's see how the vestiges are doing." I sit down with my legs crossed as I start to meditate.

{One For All Vestige World POV}

Before I know it, I'm in a misty world. I'm covered in a bit of the dark green mist that Deku was covered in the manga, luckily my mouth is at least free. I turn my head and face the vestiges of One For All. They all turn to face me, using their eyes to try and dissect me like I killed them. Yoichi is looking like the final boss in a game, Kudo and his 'boyfriend' Bruce are done facing the wall like it owes them their life insurance, Hikage is looking more Batman than ever, Banjo my GOAT is still rocking the googles, En is... existing and Nana, still as beautiful as ever, is shining even brighter than Toshi's vestige over at the other side.

Banjo: "You know we can hear your thoughts, right?"

Izuku: "Then, I guess you know why I'm here."

Yoichi: "You wish to inherit the assimilated Quirks of One For All?"

Izuku: "Obviously."

Kudo: "And why should we do that?"

Izuku: "Because if you've been in my mind you'd know what happened before when Deku inherited Gearshift and FaJin late."

Banjo: Dragging his hands down his face as he murmured. "Still can't believe we're all just a bunch of manga characters."

Hikage: "I'm fine with this."

En: Crossing his legs like he's trying to compensate for having the least most useful Quirk here. "It's pretty funny if you think about it. The entire existence of Quirks, All For One, One For All, our deaths...to think it was all just written for profit is a little... humorous." He says with a chuckle.

Izuku: "You can have your existential crisis later. Let's talk business."

Bruce: "Is it really a good idea to trust you?"

Izuku: "Dude, unless you have another candidate to wield One For All that is Quirkless and basically knows the future, I'd like to see what other shitty excuse you come up with."

Nana: After finally coming to terms with the fact her grandson is working with her killer and basically the (implied) murderer of her family, she finally speaks up, tone etched in restrained anger and frustration. "It's the best solution if we want to defeat All For One better than last time..."

Yoichi: "I also agree. With your knowledge , we have the greatest advantage on our side. Though we won't send you all of the Quirks at once, since your body would need to adjust to them." He says as he lifts his hand up.

Banjo: "I second it. This is too good of an opportunity to pass on." He said while holding his hand above his head like he'll get a treat for it. "FUCK YOU!"

Kudo: "*Exhales in rebel* Just don't mess this up."

Bruce: Bruce hesitantly lifts his hand, though you can tell he's still deciding. "...."

En: En lifts his hand up...but honestly...nobody cares about smokey. En's eye twitched a little.

Toshi(Vestige): "..." Inspirational.

Izuku: "Alright, that settles it. So long, council of wizards. Oh and Nana..." She perks up with gloomy eyes. "I promise I'll save Tenko." A small, hopeful smile creeps up her face. And with that, I vanish.

...

...

...

Yoichi: "Maybe we should get cloaks..."

[Izuku POV]

My eyes snap open as I look around the familiar aspect of my room and realize it's 11:37PM. With a tired sigh and accomplished smile, I go back to bed.

-JULY-

[Izuku POV]

God bless how well the training has paid off so far. I'm currently able to utilize 55% of One For All so improvement. And also having 6 fucking voices in your head isn't as entertaining as you would think, who knew (Naruto:😶). We've all pretty much grown accustomed to the fact that I'm a reincarnation of someone long dead, so no problem there. I've been granted access to all the assimilated Quirks of One For All and oh boy did I study them.

I always had this headcanon that One For All doesn't just stockpile power, it also enhances the user. Think about it, why would All For One give his sickly brother just a stockpiling power and yet said brother was still moving in a more lively manner? That's why Toshi was the perfect user for One For All, using it to enhance himself. By using that as my basis for improvement, the task was set.

Using logic and anime logic, I was able to figure out how to manipulate instead of just altering the speed of any object I touch using Gearshift which is pretty cool on its own. I've been able to change the activation process of FaJin from repetitive movements to just small movements, meaning no more looking stupid in public. I've just being using FaJin like Gear Second, a speed and strength boost that comes with a starter up. Blackwhip was most definitely my favorite and practically my most versatile Quirk. After seeing that Pinterest artwork of Deku making weapons of Blackwhip, I tried it by using One For All's stockpiling power to strengthen and shape it's natural density and it actually works though I need steady concentration but it's pretty sick. Ended up wanting to change its name to 'Blacksmith' but Banjo was complaining that his original name was better so we left it as that. Danger Sense was pretty awesome, figured out how to expand it's range via numerous headaches and nosebleeds. Then there's Smokescreen which I didn't really want to try anything with as it lead to an very colorful argument.

(Start Of Flashback-)

En: "My Quirk is useful enough to..."

Izuku: "A fan, closed spaces and ectera. Plus the smoke literally blinds me when I use too much of it. All those things, your Quirk is both boring and a weakness...pick a struggle dude!"

En: "It is built for stealth and blinding enemies."

Izuku: "I had no idea my eyes were also going blind!"

-More arguing-

Nana: "Should we..."

Yoichi, Bruce, Kudo, Banjo and Hikage: "No!"

Toshi(Vestige): "...."

(End Of Flashback-)

Anyway, basically I improved it and can now have the purple smoke in any shape and form. Next was Float and I can basically now fly at much longer distances. But I didn't stop there, nooo! If there's one thing I love about MHA, it is the Quirk Analysis and I hate the fact Deku didn't break this Quirk down to the last atom. So I did it for him and now, I have a lot more abilities.

Manipulating the sparks I create from my body when I activate Full Cowling, I'm able to transform the electric energy from the sparks into my very own bioelectricity. I can enhance all my senses, giving me enhanced hearing, enhanced smell, enhanced taste, enhanced touch and my very favorite, enhanced vision. So basically, you know how there's somethings your eyes can't identify or see for example, U.V rays, well by enhancing my optics I can now see in X-ray vision, U.V rays, infrared lights and now a weaker version of microscopic vision. Sounds like bullshit, right? Well you ain't seen nothing yet. By pouring a small percentage of One For All into my brain, I gained increased brain activity meaning I can think faster than a normal superhuman, process information faster and basically memorize and remember information better than before.

One of the best ones that I achieved is enhanced healing, and no I'm not regenerating a whole limb, organ or head anytime soon, I just recover from illnesses, minor wounds, cuts and bruises faster than normal.

There's also making more attacks where I use the wind I generate from my smashes, creating various attacks. Like spinning my arms, legs or whole body so fast I make an actual mini tornado. Didn't help with the trash though. I also managed to enhance vocal cords to gain a useful skill, voice modulation. I can also enhance my lungs and create a powerful wind breath that is insanely good for clearing out huge pieces of metal but it leaves me breathing faster than aethist asthmatic in church. Another one that involves my lungs along with my vocal cords, is when I enhance those two and recreate a powerful sonic scream that resulted in my ears bleeding from the sound. Taking a few advices from One Piece, I managed to replicate Geppo and Rankyaku, giving my use of Float insane aerial advantage.

And finally, we have enhanced stamina, via boosting my adrenaline, for obvious reasons, enhanced bone density which means my bones are sturdier than concrete, enhanced metabolism where I basically eat like Fatgum and burn through it at record speeds with Full Cowling and enhanced muscle mass & structure which is when I do what All Might does and enhance my muscle mass to be much bulkier so that I have an easier time performing high percentage attacks. Though, all these come with much more painful drawbacks after I'm done, leaving me momentarily paralyzed. Which is why I started learning how to use weapons like Aizawa uses his scarf, I decided to pay homage to one of my favorite DC characters and use custom escrima sticks for more effective combat and as a safety measure for me to fall on.

Toshinori nearly had a heart attack, seeing me with different abilities probably gave his poor heart PTSD. His face was priceless and will forever be stored in my phone memory.

After a while of getting used to the power of One For All, me, Toshi and Mom decided to go update my Quirk registry to not arouse suspicion and it went well, ignoring the disgusted looks I got when they found out I was primarily Quirkless. So I made sure to come up with something salvageable for any more bullshit I pull.

-Quirk Registry-

Name: Izuku "Yamikumo" Midoriya.

Age: 15 Years Old.

Gender: Male.

Quirk Name: Energizer.

Quirk Type: Emitter.

Description-

Energizer is an Emitter type Quirk that stockpilies power and energy for the user to manipulate in a number of ways. However, due to it's powerful nature and amount of years needed for the body to grow strong enough to handle the power leaving the user temporarily Quirkless, using too much of it's power could lead to the user destroying his body. Recommends support equipment for easier use.

I also managed to get my costume design on time but made sure to pay respect to the previous owner of this body, so I won't feel like a jerk, though I still got rid of the bunny ears.

-FEBRUARY-

[Third Person POV]

Sitting on the sandy ground of the now cleaned up Takoba Municipal Beach Park, we have two individual characters. Toshinori in his Small Might form and our green haired protagonist who has undergone a crazy amount of change. Now standing at 6'0" tall with a much more defined, lean Adonis-like physique and a set of 8 pack abs, a face lacking it's usual baby fat completely and is now sporting sharper facial features, giving a more mature and handsome yet still cute look, freckles arranged in the form of a diamond and green hair that has overgrown to the point of looking like a mane, almost reaching the small of his back.

They both sit in complete silence, enjoying the feeling of the little wind that touches their skin and the beautiful sight of the rising sun.

All Might (Toshi): "Young Midoriya, you really did go beyond..." He breaks the silence in a reminiscent tone.

Izuku: "Plus Ultra?" He completes the sentence with a hint of amusement in his tone.

All Might (Toshi): Chuckling lightly to himself, he smiles before continuing. "Indeed you have. I have faith you'll prove yourself in the Entrance Exams today as my successor."

Izuku: "Damn well I will. Watch me All Might, I'm gonna be a hero even greater than you." I say in a determined tone that leaves no trace of doubt.

All Might (Toshi): "I know you will, young Midoriya, I know you will."
