Due to having her bother and the number 1 hero in tow, Tastumaki wanted to take it relatively slow. A bit hard since she couldn’t wait to tell her the good news.
130Please respect copyright.PENANAIn2U6MGW9F
But things got complicated and weird when All Might, someone even Tatsumaki had to respect, exploded in puff a smoke…and turned into a human skeleton.
130Please respect copyright.PENANAzAvO6bdaAo
Tatsumaki: “What the heck! Who are you?!”
130Please respect copyright.PENANAQPyDFpTO2I
She says, almost losing her grip on him.
130Please respect copyright.PENANAOaYDRsZKKD
All Might: “I’m sorry you had to see me like this.”
130Please respect copyright.PENANAQ6ILUoYE8E
Izuku: “All Might…”
130Please respect copyright.PENANAv0Whj0daLw
Tatsumaki: “Is this you quirk?”
130Please respect copyright.PENANAMP3DeZm8AR
All Might: “No, I’ll explain to you when we’re not flying in the air. And when your sister comes, I’d like to only explain this one more time.”
130Please respect copyright.PENANAxsZeCghZQ8
Tatsumaki: “One more…Izuku you knew?”
130Please respect copyright.PENANAYDvet84K4E
Izuku nods and explains the parts of the story All Might concealed before.
130Please respect copyright.PENANAnAyfktZVoz
Tatsumaki: “Fine, hold your breath. I want to hear everything.”
130Please respect copyright.PENANAp1OpbL1RF7
Tatsumaki: ‘There’s always some complication. Why couldn’t the rest of the day be a simple celebration with my family. We haven’t had one…in a long time.’
130Please respect copyright.PENANAxxPpguFNJk
Later
130Please respect copyright.PENANAhncqLRmeg3
Inko Midoriya was fretting as she wondered where her son was. She was pacing back and forth, trying to avoid hyperventilating. Her son was almost never this late, and every single time he was, he'd come home with one bruise or another.
130Please respect copyright.PENANANNRkb9urzK
It was enough to drive even a mother with a stronger constitution crazy. A rapid knock on the door almost had her jumping out of her skin. She raced to the door, and opened it to see a strange and happy sight.
130Please respect copyright.PENANA1iv60JzWfq
Her eldest Tatsumaki and her son Izuku. She would have pulled them into a hug if it wasn’t for the skeleton human standing behind them.
130Please respect copyright.PENANAqtGTqOLnZb
Inko: “Tatsumaki, who is that behind you?”
130Please respect copyright.PENANAxxedIuYTMt
Tatsumaki: “All Might.”
130Please respect copyright.PENANAuXOnDdOqb4
Inko: “…Huh….?”
130Please respect copyright.PENANAOT45FPpReE
Tatsumaki: “No time mom, good news first.”
130Please respect copyright.PENANAcqZyEBzx5m
Tatsumaki gently took her mother hand and led her into the house, all the while regaining her grin from before. All Might and Izuku followed after but Izuku was bit slower. He still couldn’t believe All Might was in his home. This along with getting a quirk was almost enough to make him faint.
130Please respect copyright.PENANAQswi2lsx5s
It was a like he was dreaming again, but this one he prayed was real.
130Please respect copyright.PENANADFcajOAUJH
Inko: “….All Might?”
130Please respect copyright.PENANA6uAHyhW533
Tatsumaki: “Yes, but that’s not what’s important. Mom, I need you sit down. Don’t want you fainting on us.”
130Please respect copyright.PENANAbKe3Bv8SEf
Inko would have been worried if it wasn’t for Tatsumaki uncharacteristic smile.
130Please respect copyright.PENANAzoJhaoisY7
Inko: “What happened Tatsumaki?”
130Please respect copyright.PENANA3u88906Hjm
Tatsumaki: “Mom…Izuku has a quirk.”
130Please respect copyright.PENANAPyoF79ydXU
Silence and shock.
130Please respect copyright.PENANAkc3YYSZwzD
But that quickly turned into tears of joy and happiness. Faster than some speedsters, Inko hugged her son.
130Please respect copyright.PENANAQUm6VVmUI7
Inko: “Izzzzuuuukuuu!”
130Please respect copyright.PENANAlYvZz7WtDG
Izuku: “Mom…”
130Please respect copyright.PENANA2mDQKpxHo3
She balled her eyes out while her son held her and while crying himself.
130Please respect copyright.PENANACfRFA02VP5
All Might: “Its this normal?”
130Please respect copyright.PENANATXRyXpTvaF
Tatsumaki: “Yep, and I wouldn’t have it any other way.”
130Please respect copyright.PENANAAgw7nRwxpu
Inko: “I-I need to call Fubuki! She needs to know.”
130Please respect copyright.PENANAo2iCmRkDUG
Inko reluctantly let her son go and rushed to the house phone.
130Please respect copyright.PENANAVY7tXSdSem
Izuku: “This…still feels like a dream. I… I was diagnosed! I have an extra joint on my toe! I'm Quirkless!”
130Please respect copyright.PENANAu2JZjx6H8J
Tatsumaki: “Not anymore you’re not.”
130Please respect copyright.PENANA9gbBDlnQsQ
All Might: “Indeed, besides, I have extra joint on my toe as well.”
130Please respect copyright.PENANAxQ6drY1lJt
That got them to turn to him in surprise.
130Please respect copyright.PENANAiKIZVn0KJq
All Might: “Our circumstances are different, shonen, but the results are the same. I don't know why your Quirk lay dormant for so long. But it appeared! As for the toe…? Not a clue. I'm not a doctor."
130Please respect copyright.PENANApi3FvQfFm2
Tatsumaki: “I think I’ll have some words for that doctor after this.”
130Please respect copyright.PENANAjp6LUGOcRq
All Might sent a small prayer for that poor man.
130Please respect copyright.PENANA06KoeeF3nB
Izuku: “You don’t have to do that Tatsu, I’m…just so…I still can’t believe this is real…I can be a hero…”
130Please respect copyright.PENANA2PPGYvS65J
Before Izuku could start crying again, All Might put his hand on his shoulder.
130Please respect copyright.PENANA98KrLpOn4F
All Might: "This is very real young man. You developed quite a splendid Quirk during that battle. In fact, if it weren't for the look of shock, joy, and wonder on your face as it happened, I would have assumed you had been lying to me about being Quirkless!”
130Please respect copyright.PENANA8ZLLHbDo8U
Izuku: “I would never!”
130Please respect copyright.PENANAw40AD4ct1c
Toshinori let out a chuckle.
130Please respect copyright.PENANAJemIzcp6yF
All Might: "Relax. You could never have faked that look on your face. I had… much the same look on mine the first time I used my Quirk."
130Please respect copyright.PENANAxI9WFLHomE
At that moment, the door flung open and a beautiful woman burst into the living room. Fubuki was breathing heavily, like she flew here with all her strength and then some.
130Please respect copyright.PENANAxu1i5g5fNh
Izuku & All Might: ‘Fast…’
130Please respect copyright.PENANAU2NnRnUdY7
She rushed to Izuku and grabbed his shoulder while her own were shaking.
130Please respect copyright.PENANAM6tfXz0pm8
Fubuki: “Is it true Izuku? Do you…really have a quirk now?”
130Please respect copyright.PENANAFIgoeebSiM
Izuku held back his tears and looked at his sister with a smile.
130Please respect copyright.PENANAFrfCEuo8zh
Izuku: “Yes, I can…be a hero. Just like you and Tastu.”
130Please respect copyright.PENANA012y1TjrJf
Fubuki hugged her precious brother and cried tears of joy. Her brother can finally live out his dream. While that was happening, Inko came back and smiled at the scene.
130Please respect copyright.PENANA9bkUSzCy2O
After a moment, Fubuki let go of Izuku and asked the most question.
130Please respect copyright.PENANAepmmowHkHJ
Fubuki: “What’s your quirk Izu?”
130Please respect copyright.PENANAstzEmdmyHE
Everyone but All Might stiffened at that question.
130Please respect copyright.PENANAaLsLRY1PA9
Tatsumaki: “I guess we forgot to ask.”
130Please respect copyright.PENANAPgiXMukFFT
Inko: “Hahaha.”
130Please respect copyright.PENANA6tl5HawVxr
Fubuki: “You all were to caught up in your emotions.”
130Please respect copyright.PENANAbmkOFtTdnn
Tatsumaki: “You can’t blame us.”
130Please respect copyright.PENANAVcwt0IzTP5
Fubuki: “I’m not, I get it. But there’s something I need to know.”
130Please respect copyright.PENANAsSYQgWQZ3p
She turns to All Might.
130Please respect copyright.PENANAY52G06VYzR
Fubuki: “Who are you?”
130Please respect copyright.PENANA4nJvXo4ZWk
Inko: “All Might.”
130Please respect copyright.PENANALrSfbfwqWG
Fubuki: “….Huh?”
130Please respect copyright.PENANA9GnyodpNFL
All Might: “Haha, now that the whole family is here I can explain my situation.”
130Please respect copyright.PENANAnywYoAVefL
Everyone, except Inko who made some tea for everyone, found a sit and listened to All Might’s story. He first recapped what happened with Izuku for Fubuki and Inko.
130Please respect copyright.PENANABhI1t5zdNo
Izuku recklessness did get Inko to almost burst in tears again and for Fubuki to scold him. But knowing that his actions managed to inspire All Might of all people, calmed them down.
130Please respect copyright.PENANAgvaxMof9h1
No words can describe how proud they were of him. Then All Might filled them in on his condition.
130Please respect copyright.PENANAAgPXDNMDNh
Fubuki: “Whoa…”
130Please respect copyright.PENANAr21QzKQbbN
Tatsumaki: “Hmph, I expect nothing less from the number 1 hero.”
130Please respect copyright.PENANANReDSzIYGl
Izuku: “Tatsu…”
130Please respect copyright.PENANA2UQnSAcxzu
Tatsumaki: “But now, I’m wondering why you’re telling us all of this. Why?”
130Please respect copyright.PENANANczY1GpAOp
All Might: “That’s related to something I didn’t tell young Midoriya. But the short it is that I think he is worthy enough to inherit my strength."
130Please respect copyright.PENANAd7eYd3r9qD
Everyone: “….Huh?!”
130Please respect copyright.PENANARQTqdpjlay
Yeah, that got Inko to finally faint.
130Please respect copyright.PENANAmrrO7O15HO
Fubuki: “Mom?!”
130Please respect copyright.PENANAjRwkFu92HE
Tatsumaki: “Explain, what do you mean?”
130Please respect copyright.PENANArp9Uku1iXY
All Might: “Your brother impressed me far more than I let on. To see a kid with no Quirk racing to certain doom to save someone from their doom…It made me feel like an utter hypocrite. Even after I scolded him and told him to pursue a more realistic dream…he was far more heroic than even me! Meddling where you're not needed… not able… or maybe even not wanted… is the essence of heroism!”
130Please respect copyright.PENANAoLKswj91fX
He then turned to Izuku and looked into his tear filled eyes.
All Might: “You bought that child enough time to breathe and gave me the kick in the pants I've needed for the past five years! A hero must always be ready to risk their life to save others! You can not only be a hero… you may one day even surpass me!"
130Please respect copyright.PENANAsbTq9SAEi7
Izuku: "All Might…"
130Please respect copyright.PENANAHOpAywOJyK
Izuku was all teary eyed and nearly sobbing in joy.
130Please respect copyright.PENANAsypIO494F6
All Might: "That is why… I wish to make you my successor! Izuku, Will you accept my power and become the next Symbol of Peace?"
130Please respect copyright.PENANAZU74F0herD
Before Tatsumaki could catch up with the conversation and while Fubuki was fanning Inko unconscious body, Izuku shot up from his seat.
130Please respect copyright.PENANAL2H69GFIqr
Izuku: "Of course! Given a mission by All Might himself… how could I say anything but yes?”
130Please respect copyright.PENANA3GrY6nxLV7
Tatsumaki: “Hold up!”
130Please respect copyright.PENANAsk0OM1w3vH
Izuku: “Tatsu?”
130Please respect copyright.PENANAHCO50GuMxR
Tatsumaki: “Too fast, way too much way too soon. Izu just got his quirk and you want to…what do you mean by take your power?”
130Please respect copyright.PENANAeLBTxOtvbJ
Izuku: “Of yeah, what do you mean All Might?
130Please respect copyright.PENANAwIw0UwUuFn
All Might: “Well, it’s related to my quirk. What about to say must not leave this family. Understood?”
130Please respect copyright.PENANAYXge3kQ79L
Despite his diminished appearance, they understood the seriousness of the situation. So they nodded and focused on the words he would speak next.
130Please respect copyright.PENANAJvIrlULv4n
All Might: “You may have noticed, but every time someone asks me what my Quirk is, I always play it off or deflect by telling a joke. The tabloids heavily suspect its 'super strength' or a boosting Quirk. But it's neither of those things. My Quirk… is One For All."
130Please respect copyright.PENANAgEOkqbppzO
He held his hand out and a rainbow of colors seemed to envelop his palm. The two gasped at the sight.
130Please respect copyright.PENANAYzSyGaZ9qj
All Might: "I always deflect the question because All Might must be a natural born hero… but One For All… is a Sacred Torch! My master passed it on to me! I was Quirkless…just like you, shonen!"
130Please respect copyright.PENANAe0XCoJFJLQ
Izuku simply could not breathe. All Might… Quirkless? That… that was impossible,
130Please respect copyright.PENANAA6PFPcOHJI
All Might: "One For All is the ability to store and transfer power. The first person built it up and then passed it on, giving the second one greatly enhanced abilities and strength. They then cultivated it, grew it, and passed it on again. Each time, it grows to make the next wielder stronger than the last! And you, shonen! You are next! What say you?"
130Please respect copyright.PENANA7CgOb5mvKQ
Izuku: "I…is… is that even… fair?"
130Please respect copyright.PENANAK13g4ZZl9d
Toshinori started in surprise, having expected his fanboy to immediately agree.
130Please respect copyright.PENANAEbeBCkTIZW
Izuku: "Or right? If I… If I had still been Quirkless, I would have agreed immediately of course… but now…Would that be fair to others? And… how am I supposed to learn my own Quirk? It's completely different from One For All."
130Please respect copyright.PENANAOUvAX1qwxs
Tatsumaki: “Ha, that’s my brother!”
130Please respect copyright.PENANAEQt3qPbnSh
All Might: “Hahaha, You're not exactly dissuading me, kid. That kind of selfless attitude… you're a perfect successor. Worry not, shonen! Your own Quirk awakening makes things easier on us. You see… even if you're a perfect successor in terms of your sense of justice… your limp-noodle body leaves much to be desired. One For All would rip you apart at the seams if you accepted it now."
130Please respect copyright.PENANACVkh7Le7HF
Izuku had a slightly terrified look on his face while Tatsumaki narrowed her eyes All Might for even suggesting such a thing.
130Please respect copyright.PENANADry4wAEnod
All Might: "If you’re family would allow it, you would do hardcore physical training with me over the next ten months. That way, you’ll be ready in time to enroll at U.A. With your quirk awakening, we're not in as much of a hurry on that front. We can dedicate the first few months more towards your own Quirk and then start in on the physical training. So…what do you say, kid?"
130Please respect copyright.PENANAeQ2gmnhQe9
Izuku thought for a moment. First, he looked to Tatsumaki who gave him a smile of approval. Then he looked behind him to where his recovered mother and sister are. They gave a nod, knowing this is the first step to him achieving his dream.
130Please respect copyright.PENANA7UfyNKnAnK
Izuku: "I'll do it! All Might… I'll be your successor!"
All Might: "EXCELLENT! Let's begin first by determining… just what the hell your Quirk actually is!”
130Please respect copyright.PENANAFhwkMgvgZj
Tatsumaki: “Oh yeah, we got sidetracked again.”
130Please respect copyright.PENANA4uRoEhEqiL
Everyone chuckled and took a moment to really let the situation sink in.
130Please respect copyright.PENANA5vgxIDx5ji
Fubuki: “So, what is Izu’s quirk?”
130Please respect copyright.PENANApFHfEolmrf
All Might: "To be honest, I'm not sure. The only thing I can say for certain is that it is likely an Emitter type. Young Midoriya displayed three abilities… though really two of them may just be connected."
130Please respect copyright.PENANAUPfXcZaNuH
He raised his hand, one finger pointing up.
130Please respect copyright.PENANADOoFtiTbm6
All Might: "You enveloped Katsuki Bakugo with a green aura like the one over your own body and easily pulled him out of the slime."
130Please respect copyright.PENANAvJUzMAoRAS
Inko: "Ah!"
130Please respect copyright.PENANA2JyV96XCgd
Tatsumaki: “Yes! You have a quirk just like us! You even have my color.”
130Please respect copyright.PENANAUnDIUyRt2A
Toshinori let another grin out, and continued with a second finger raised.
130Please respect copyright.PENANAtmqn9ooQDx
All Might: "Two, you were able to project a force blast… similar to one of my punches. Weaker…much weaker…but similar."
130Please respect copyright.PENANAYXN5qZH7pJ
Fubuki: “Not to surprising, both us can something similar.”
130Please respect copyright.PENANAWI2LId7OOo
Tatsumaki: “Don’t worry Izu, I’m sure your blasts will be able to change the weather too one day.”
130Please respect copyright.PENANAaAmOQXQmIL
130Please respect copyright.PENANAv8h2hdN3VM
Izuku was too blown away by the fact All Might do that. Toshinori meanwhile grinned and raised the last finger
130Please respect copyright.PENANAY0xTSRxNON
All Might: "And three…when you were injured, your wound was enveloped in a green flame and completely healed!"
130Please respect copyright.PENANAJ16CUTOa7g
Inko: "Injured!?"
130Please respect copyright.PENANA7vhAhNYwMb
Inko shrieked, and started needling her son over protectively.
130Please respect copyright.PENANAlABnIMYDQL
Inko: "Where were you hurt Izuku? Does it hurt? How many fingers am I holding up?"
130Please respect copyright.PENANApTTDnu7qm2
Tatsumaki and Fubuki sighed over their worry prone mother.
130Please respect copyright.PENANAdq9FjXo6mx
Tatsumaki: “His healing must be incredible, I didn’t see any wounds when I checked.”
130Please respect copyright.PENANAtmtTO9NrXn
Fubuki: “It’s also so different from what any of us can do. You don’t think…”
130Please respect copyright.PENANAZolSvel7Yv
Before Tatsumaki could start shaking the house from thinking about their very dead father, a whistle went off,
130Please respect copyright.PENANAKTzidY9u6O
Inko: “Ahh, the tea!"
130Please respect copyright.PENANACy0rHPHwNh
Inko hurried back into the kitchen and came back with a kettle and some cups. She poured them all some.
130Please respect copyright.PENANAWDSH0dbsAE
Inko: "I hope you enjoy, All Might."
130Please respect copyright.PENANAZxpYPtXH0h
All Might: “Please, while I’m like this, call me Toshinori.”
130Please respect copyright.PENANA4ioeqMtAFR
Inko: “Oh, alright. Then please call me Inko.”
130Please respect copyright.PENANA7EzN87Sovl
Everyone took a sip before continuing.
130Please respect copyright.PENANAFtrNuLlRKY
All Might: "This looks like one of my favorites. Excellent taste, Inko. Now…I have an idea I would like to test."
130Please respect copyright.PENANArKwu91NUtU
He looked around for something small, and placed a simple salt shaker on the table in front of Izuku.
130Please respect copyright.PENANANamP533kNm
All Might: "Lift this."
130Please respect copyright.PENANAHHbIeWfoXo
Izuku: "W-with my quirk? But this is too sudden? How do I even do that? I never had a quirk before."
130Please respect copyright.PENANAuKMXIXnmmH
Tatsumaki: “It’s a salt shaker Izu, we could lift something that small when were children. Even mom can do that.”
130Please respect copyright.PENANAeBrNAcugO1
Fubuki: “You can do it Izuku. Don’t brute force it, focus and remember the sensation you felt when you first did it.”
130Please respect copyright.PENANAoYN2qIBkDB
All Might: “They are right, remember what would have happened to your friend had you not intervened. Pull that feeling out and embrace your future! Prove you deserve a place at U.A.!”
130Please respect copyright.PENANA7EzBHOyDsZ
With his sisters and hero cheering him on, how could he do anything but?
His eyes and body began glowing green, which mirrored on the salt shaker. And then it shot up like a rocket, straight through the roof, the floor above them, that roof, and into the stratosphere.
130Please respect copyright.PENANA1UEJxJRsRu
They all looked up at the hole in the ceiling. One deadpanned, one shaking, one sweating bullets, one smiling and one…shocked.
130Please respect copyright.PENANAeJ9tDHbrkR
Tatsumaki: “Awesome Izu!”
130Please respect copyright.PENANAB5ohxHs2fd
Inko: "That's going to be… expensive."
130Please respect copyright.PENANAlNDlScwTfB
Izuku started sweating actual bullets while All Might looked down, staring at the boy with his face expressionless.
130Please respect copyright.PENANA92D2F2V64k
All Might: "Shonen… I said pick it up… not send it into low orbit." Despite his face, he was struggling to contain both his glee and his amusement.
130Please respect copyright.PENANAHrN1KC0gAn
All Might: "My apologies Inko-san. I'll pay for that."
130Please respect copyright.PENANANTgVih1MMZ
He just barely held back a chuckle as Izuku started stammering out apologies and repeatedly bowing to him.
130Please respect copyright.PENANAelOHjy380K
As for Fubuki…
130Please respect copyright.PENANAeYAhTOaAz7
Fubuki: ‘That much power…and he just got his quirk. Even now I couldn’t…’
130Please respect copyright.PENANADkF09e8Pmu
Her thoughts drift to what she did Psykos. What she did to catch up to Tatsumaki. To meet expectations and stay ahead. But despite it all, she hasn’t even breached the top 15. Forever 16…
130Please respect copyright.PENANAQi5cMQl6XF
Fubuki: ‘And now Izuku will…surpass me…leave me behind…’
130Please respect copyright.PENANANImeh4TFlS
Before she can go any further into the dark, a finger snap brought her out of it. For now…
130Please respect copyright.PENANAKTK1FiW8ka
Tatsumaki: “Were you listening?”
130Please respect copyright.PENANAmnlq4zPOpC
Fubuki: “Um, what? Sorry, I was still in shock.”
130Please respect copyright.PENANAEFkImz5wxP
Tatsumaki: “Ha, I get it. Our brother is going to be great.”
130Please respect copyright.PENANANYFu6SCAPD
Fubuki: “He sure is…”
130Please respect copyright.PENANADjfA7rNnnu
Tatsumaki: “Anyway, it’s been decided that me, you and All-Might will take turns training Izu. We rotate every 3 days so we can train him well without neglecting hero work. Got it?”
130Please respect copyright.PENANAVFulQ8ERth
Fubuki: “Yes. Who’s first.”
130Please respect copyright.PENANAqORRGCDOyO
Tatsumaki: “All Might, me and then you.”
130Please respect copyright.PENANAJAT27V7x3F
Fubuki: ‘Last…why am I not surprised.’
130Please respect copyright.PENANAchaEZi5b9d
Fubuki: “Okay.”
130Please respect copyright.PENANAmltprQESs5
Tatsumaki: “Good, now we all had a very long day. I think we should get some rest. It’s been awhile since we all slept in the same house. But first, we celebrate!”
130Please respect copyright.PENANA5gfEK2FFcB
Fubuki: “Right.”
130Please respect copyright.PENANAcWCvgzkCzk
With that, the day slowed down. All Might left while the Midoriya family had a long overdue celebration. Everyone was full of smiles, for Izuku finally had a shot at becoming a hero. A great shot, considering his power.
130Please respect copyright.PENANAdllOCh3rau
But that road will be long and full of terrors. That’s the future however, for now, Izuku can rest easy and go to bed with smile.
