Izuku Midoriya slowly opened his eyes.

The tall gates of U.A. High stood before him.

“…It’s been one year already…”

Memories rushed through his mind

The day he met All Might.
The moment he inherited One For All.
The friends he made.
The battles he fought.
And the small girl he saved… Eri.

A soft smile appeared on his face.

“Today’s Sunday…”

After getting permission from All Might, Midoriya left U.A.

He was going home.

“To see Mom…”

The door opened.

“Inko!” he called.

His mother turned around and instantly hugged him.

“Izuku! You’ve gotten thinner! Are you eating properly?!”

“I-I am, Mom!” he laughed.

For a moment… everything felt normal.

Later, the two walked through a busy shopping mall.

Laughing. Talking. Shopping.

A peaceful day.

Meanwhile…

Deep inside Tartarus Prison

Chaos erupted.

Tomura Shigaraki and the League of Villains launched a brutal attack.

Guards fell one by one.

“Free him…” Shigaraki whispered.

Alarms screamed.

Emergency signals were sent.

“All heroes, respond immediately!”

All Might, Endeavor, and Eraserhead rushed toward Tartarus.

But they were too late.

A dark figure stepped out from the shadows.

All For One… was free.

“…One For All…” he murmured.

“I’ll take it back.”

Back at the mall

Midoriya was holding shopping bags.

“Mom, do you want to check that store”

Suddenly

A terrifying pressure filled the air.

People froze.

Then chaos exploded.

“RUN!!”

Screams echoed everywhere.

A figure appeared in the center of the mall.

All For One.

Midoriya’s eyes widened.

“N-No way…”

His body wouldn’t move.

Fear locked him in place.

All For One slowly walked toward him.

“…Found you.”

“ONE FOR ALL.”

Midoriya trembled.

He couldn’t run.

He couldn’t think.

Then

A figure stepped in front of him.

His mother.

“Inko…?”

“What do you want from my son?!” she shouted.

“Stay away from him!”

Tears filled her eyes but she didn’t move.

“Izuku… run!”

All For One smiled.

“Not so fast.”

“I searched very hard for you…”

His arm twisted

Transforming into a sharp blade.

Midoriya’s eyes widened in horror.

“MOM!!”

In a single moment

Everything went silent.

Blood.

His mother collapsed in front of him.

Midoriya froze.

His world shattered.

And All For One stood there… smiling.
