I, with no quirk, become a hero!

All·for·one, who had lived for hundreds of years, was also tired. He had achieved the so-called achievement of standing at the top of everyone, and it was almost time to end it all.

However... before his death, this man's final goal was to pass on his "personality".

Of course... in the end, All Might's face must be filled with despair. This is the final gift left to "old friends" and the entire society.

167. Death Watch

"The Butcher", a ferocious and cruel enemy, was subdued and captured by "The Steel Wire Reaper" a year ago, and the police put him in a heavy prison for "personality crimes".

The court then sentenced this cruel enemy to death...but it has never been carried out.

In Japan, the average waiting time for death row inmates from sentencing to execution is seven years; most death row inmates who have committed serious crimes may not be actually executed until more than 20 years later.

This is why it is said that some death row inmates will not be actually executed even if they die of old age in their cells. Perhaps the people who made this law wanted to let these death row inmates use their remaining energy to atone for their sins. After all, most prisoners will be arrested and sent to labor camps.

Of course, most prisoners with minor crimes would obey orders obediently, but for the "enemies" who had been sentenced to death, even if the actual death penalty would never be carried out, they did not want to spend the rest of their lives in prison, so... a riot broke out in the prison.

With prior collusion...premeditated...several death row inmates successfully escaped from prison. Faced with the overwhelming wanted and search by heroes and police, they all hid and disappeared.

"Moonfish" was one of the death row inmates who escaped from prison. He was later introduced to the "League of Villains" by his "agent", but was killed instantly by the runaway Chang An Ta Ying controlled by Shinso's human master during the forest training. Now he is back in prison again.

"Bloodthirsty Wolf" will easily go crazy when he smells blood. He once went on a rampage and brutally killed more than a dozen innocent citizens. When the hero wanted to persuade him to calmly surrender, he also brutally killed the professional hero. In the end, the police determined that he was a vicious murderer and must be arrested. After that, he became an "enemy" and went on the run.

He was captured and subdued by the "Wire Death God" a year ago. After being handed over to the police by the hero Jungle God, he was sentenced to death and imprisoned...He escaped from prison with other death row inmates not long ago.

The "Bloodthirsty Wolf" that had been hiding until yesterday was caught by the Mighty of the Jungle and the Mountain Lady. After a fierce chase and battle between the two sides, he was eventually killed by the passing "Steel Wire Death God".

"The Butcher", after escaping from prison, also went into hiding like the other two. After the death row inmate escaped from prison, the heroes and the police searched very hard, as this was a matter of face for the government...so even the "Butcher" had to stay out of the spotlight for a while.

At first, "The Butcher" wanted to take revenge on the guy who cut off his limbs and threw him into prison. However, when he thought of the way he looked at him like the god of death, "The Butcher" didn't even dare to think about it... Revenge and deliberately seeking death are two different things. Even if he falls into the hands of a hero or a policeman, the most he will do is to be thrown into prison again. But if he meets that guy again, he will probably be dead.

Not intending to have too much contact with the terrifying "God of Death", the "Butcher" has been hiding in the dark like a sewer rat and dared not show his head.

As time goes by, the heroes and police's search efforts begin to slow down, or rather, most of the heroes and police's energy is now focused on the "Evil Alliance".

Now the "butcher" who has been suppressed for so long can finally not help but start to act. He has had enough of this sewer rat life and he is hungry!

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

In the city where night has come, there is a bright moonlight tonight to dispel the darkness of the entire city. However, on such a beautiful night, not a single pedestrian can be seen in the entire streets and alleys. After all, everyone is in a panic and dares not go out.

Last night, a horrifying incident happened in this city. An office worker was attacked by an "enemy" on his way home from work. When the police on night patrol arrived, only half of his body was left...and the "enemy" who caused all this had already fled. The whole scene was unbearable to watch.

Early this morning, news reports were intensified. The heroes and police warned citizens not to go out at night, and patrols were intensified throughout the day to search for traces of the "enemy", but nothing was found.

As tonight arrives, something like this happens in a corner of the city: a man is running for his life in panic, wanting to seek help from heroes and the police, but this man is actually a "butcher" who has committed a serious crime.

“Why… why!?”

The "butcher" didn't even dare to look back as he fled. The fear in his heart had swallowed up all his rationality, because the terrible "God of Death" was approaching from behind.

When the night came tonight, the "Butcher" was ready to act again, but because of the arrival of the patrolling heroes, he had to throw away the half-eaten meal in his hand. Now he could not be delayed by the heroes.

The "butcher" hurriedly hid back in the sewer. He had been hiding in this place like a rat during this period of time. That was why the hero and the police could not find any trace of him.

As night falls, the Butcher emerges from the sewer. He is hungry again and wants to find someone to eat. It doesn't matter if it's a hero... a policeman... The Butcher is ready to attack anyone who is alone and then eat them brutally.

At this moment, a figure was slowly walking towards him, and the butcher was immediately pleasantly surprised... He didn't expect that there would be prey coming to him today, he was so lucky.

As the figure slowly approached, the moonlight illuminated his appearance clearly. At this moment, the expression on the "butcher"'s face changed from surprise to extreme fear. He immediately turned around and began to run frantically in fear.

Why did he come to him? Why did he come to him even though he had deliberately avoided the terrible "God of Death"... He didn't even dare to think about these questions. The fear almost suffocated the "Butcher".

He didn't dare to look back, didn't dare to stop... The "butcher" knew that if he slowed down now, he would die, and the terrible "God of Death" would take his life.

Heroes and police! They are the only ones who can save him now. Even if it means going back to prison, the "butcher" doesn't have the courage to face the "god of death".

The "butcher" was in a hurry to escape, so he took a shortcut through an alley and ran away. There were many heroes and policemen patrolling tonight, and they could be seen as long as they went to the street.

The butcher could even see some light in the dark alley. It was the lighting of the night patrol police. He rushed towards it madly in surprise, stretching out his hand to call for help.

"save......."

Just as he was about to shout, the "butcher" in the alley had his hand stretched out. Countless steel wires tightly wrapped around his entire body from behind the dark, even locking his mouth shut so that he couldn't make a sound, and slowly dragged him into the darkness...

“What’s that sound!?”

Hearing the sound coming from the alley, the patrolling police immediately shone the flashlight over there, and all they saw was a deserted alley.

"I'm scared to death... Let's just join the others."

The patrol policeman thought of the tragic incident that happened yesterday, shuddered slightly, and then went to join other policemen. At a time like this, it is safer to have more people.

168. The third act is about to begin

"We meet again."

"Why...why did you come to me? You are not a hero now, right?!"

"Why did you come to me?"

Midoriya Izuku responded to the "butcher's" words of fear with his actions. He waved his right hand and disappeared with a flash of silver light.

"Ahhhh!!!"

The butcher howled in pain, his arms had been severed from the roots, making him feel the excruciating pain just as before.

"Does it hurt?"

Midoriya looked at the enemy lying on the ground with indifference. The "butcher" didn't even dare to raise his head to face him... Why did this terrible "God of Death" come to him again?

"Hei Wu, you go back first... I have something to do next."

"understood."

The black mist beside Midoriya performed a butler's salute, then opened the portal and disappeared. According to the order of all·for·one, his task was only to obey and cooperate with Midoriya Izuku's actions.

"You.....what do you want to do!?"

"doing what?"

Midoriya once again answered the "butcher" who was so frightened that he couldn't speak clearly. The steel wire in his right hand flashed silver light, and this time the butcher's legs were broken and bleeding profusely.

"Ahhhhh!!"

"Please... please spare my life!"

Filled with fear and the severe pain of broken limbs, the butcher cried and begged the God of Death in front of him, hoping that he would spare his life.

Facing the Butcher's heart-wrenching wails and pleas for mercy, Midoriya smiled. When the Butcher really thought that the man in front of him would spare his life like last time, the God of Death smiled and slowly answered him:

"No way~!"

The cry for mercy came to an abrupt end. With the last flash of silver light from the steel wire, the head of the "butcher" was separated from his body and fell to the ground... The blood from the headless corpse beneath him dyed the land red.

Izuku Midoriya bent down, picked up the "butcher's" head and left. He had to go somewhere now.

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

During the day today, Izuku Midoriya came to this city through the "portal" of the Black Mist. He asked the Black Mist to search for the location information of the "butcher", while Midoriya went to do another thing.

The person attacked and killed by the "butcher" was an office worker. Like many ordinary citizens, he had a family of his own and a daughter who was only four years old.

The police had visited the victim's home in the morning and told the victim's wife the sad news...but his daughter, who had just turned four, had no idea why her father did not come home.

When Kuroki went to look for the "butcher", Midoriya came to the victim's home without knocking on the door... He could hear the woman's miserable crying from outside.

His heart felt like it was twisted in pain, and Midoriya couldn't help but grab his chest with his right hand. All of this... He had an unavoidable responsibility. If he had ignored the law and strangled that guy at the beginning, no one would be hurt now.

There is no excuse to escape...I must bear the responsibility for this mistake and not let more people get hurt.

"Brother, what are you doing in front of my house? And...why are you crying?"

The little girl skipped out of the house. Her father had not come home since last night and her mother had been crying all day. She felt stuffy at home so she ran out to get some fresh air. Then she saw a strange big brother... Why was he crying at the door of his own house?

Midoriya squatted down, slowly touched the little girl's head with his right hand, and apologized to the child with tears in his eyes:

"sorry......"

"Why....Big Brother, do you want to say sorry?"

"Because big brother did something wrong, I want to apologize to you and your mother."

"not understand......?"

Midoriya stood up and took his right hand away from the little girl's head. He turned and left... and left with these last words.

"Your father will not come home... You must be strong and take good care of your mother..."

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

With a black flame burning in his heart, Izuku Midoriya came to the police station carrying the "butcher's" head. He had to put an end to this matter with his own hands.

"who!!?"

The incident caused by the "Butcher" shocked the entire city. The heroes and police were on emergency patrols day and night. They wanted to catch the enemy who committed such a cruel act. Naturally, there were also police officers changing shifts at the door of the police station at night.

Seeing a figure slowly approaching with a head in his hand, the police officer on duty immediately pulled out his gun and pointed it at Izuku Midoriya.

"Stop, don't move! Or I'll shoot!!"

Midoriya stopped and threw the "butcher's" head at the feet of the policeman on duty with his right hand. The policeman was so scared that he almost shot him.

"I have killed the Butcher. You don't have to search the city for him anymore."

"!!?"

The policeman was nervous and surprised. He looked at the head at his feet and found that it was indeed the wanted death row prisoner. The man in front of him could also see his face clearly because of the moonlight.

"You are.....Midoriya Izuku?"

The student from Uei who became the "enemy" not long ago is quite well-known. At least the police working in the judicial organs naturally recognized who he was at a glance. Now the vigilance of the police on duty was slightly relaxed... He knew that although the boy in front of him was now an "enemy", he had not actually done anything really bad.

"This is.....?"

Pointing at the "butcher" head at his feet, and then at Izuku Midoriya, the police officer on duty was full of questions. What was going on?

"I killed him..."

Midoriya said slowly without denying it, then he turned around and prepared to leave...he had done what he was supposed to do.

Knowing that Midoriya in front of him is now an "enemy", the police originally wanted to keep him... but after thinking it over carefully, he decided to give it up. This thankless job should be left to the hero. He doesn't want to sacrifice his life gloriously.

The police officer on duty was thinking of being lazy, but Midoriya paused as he was about to leave. He turned to the police officer and said:

"Please help me convey a message to the victim's family."

"I'm sorry... This is the only way I can atone for my sins. If you want to hate me in the future, just hate me."

After saying this, Izuku Midoriya disappeared into the darkness and left completely...and the policeman on duty opened his mouth after hearing this, wanting to say something but couldn't.

It was only at this time that he remembered one thing. The death row prisoner named "The Butcher" at his feet seemed to have been arrested by the "Steel Wire Death God" in the beginning.

And I heard that the "butcher"'s limbs were all cut off at the time. This news was popular on the Internet for a long time...

"This kid...is he really an "enemy"? "

169. The Beginning of the Third Time

All Might and Officer Takunai rushed to the scene after receiving the news. The police had already surrounded the scene and kept outsiders away. This is the scene they saw after the hero and the police arrived.

The headless body with its limbs chopped off was sent to the police station last night. The dead man was the escaped death row prisoner "The Butcher", and the person who killed him was... Izuku Midoriya.

"........."

Looking at the corpses on the ground, All Might was silent, not knowing what to say. He had no idea whether he was right or wrong. When he came, the policeman on duty last night told him about his meeting with Izuku Midoriya.

It seems that Midoriya thought it was his fault that the "Butcher" attacked and killed the citizens after escaping from prison, so the current situation has become... Izuku Midoriya killed the "Butcher" and sent his head to the police station.

"It's not good..."

"All Might, what's wrong?"

Hearing the words muttered by the No. 1 hero beside him, Officer Takunai asked with some concern. He and All Might were not only work partners, but also close friends... It was like this when they fought against All·For·One before.

"Midoriya boy.....he might fall into self-blaming paranoia."

"It's true that he would blame himself if he encountered such a situation, but it shouldn't be something to worry about too much, right?"

"On the contrary..."
