are part of my origin, too.

How did I end up

Hercules!

[ALL FOR ONE] I told you.

[growls]

[tense music]

You can't go beyond
using toys.

He's glowing?

You're just a brat now!

Huh?

Where's your smile, old friend?

[grunts]

[yelling]

[grunting]

[ALL FOR ONE]
That's not a good look--

former hero,
bereft of hope,

missing your trademark grin,

struggling on the ground
like a worm.

I'll relish the look of utter
despair in your eyes.

Then I'll make a mess
out of your face,

just like you did to mine
all those years ago--

What's happening?

I can't move.

[MAN]
Everyone bleeds the same color.

[ALL FOR ONE]
Who are you?

[gasps]

[whooshing]

[STAIN sighs] Go!

[chuckles]

Destroy him, All Might!

DOZENS OF MINUTES EARLIER

[ALL MIGHT] Ah.

Oh, I'm connected!

Hi. Are you two still OK?

Can you hear me?

Is that you, All Might?

[ALL MIGHT]
There's no time.

I'll have to keep this
short and sweet.

You two need to get
to Gunga, quickly.

The way I see it,
you two are the only heroes

who can avert the crisis
at Gunga.

Engine and Half-Cold
Half-Hot-- a dynamic duo.

[thud]

Selfless and bold.

[stirring music]

I surmised the situation
based on what Ingenium

and the Burn boy said
to each other.

All For One's path of
devastation was easy to follow.

Along the way, I came across
blood-spattered debris.

The question was,
did the blood belong

to All For One or All Might?

[sniffing]

My nose
may be mutilated,

but I still have a keen
sense of smell.

Hmm.

No, not this one either.

Hmm.

Yes.

[distant zapping]

[gasps]

♪ ♪

All For One,

it doesn't matter how mighty
a villain you are.

When I taste your blood,
my Quirk activates,

freezing you in your tracks!

All Might, yes, the true hero.

You must understand why
I'm leaving the shadows,

stepping into the light!

Remember my words!

If a person has the soul
of a hero,

they exist only
to help other people.

But if a god is reduced
to a mortal shell,

one who could fall in the rain,

he must be allowed
to struggle

and fight for his own survival.

[growling]

And when you've finished,
make sure you track me down

and put an end to Stain,

the vigilante
who k*lled 40 heroes.

I know why
you're here, Stain.

You must endure, All Might!

So I am here!

[gushing]

[ALL FOR ONE]
Forcible Quirk activation--

Bloodlet!

[ALL MIGHT] Did he
just expel his blood?

[ALL FOR ONE]
Chizome Akaguro,

I predicted you would
eventually try

to tip the scales
against me,

so I put countermeasures
in place.

You were the only one
at Tartarus

who refused me that day.

Since then, I've been prepared
for you to make a move.

It's still the same blood!
[groaning]

Are you stupid?

I used antigen swab.

It totally altered
my blood type.

One trick to ruling
from the shadows

is to make sure you never leave
a trace of yourself behind.

[coughing]

Purging so much
blood felt nice.

There's a new pep in my step.

Stain!

[grunting]

Ah!

♪ ♪

[grunting]

Run, Stain!

♪ ♪

[ALL FOR ONE] Rejoice.

Your Quirk will make a fine
addition to my repertoire.

Now that I think about it,
you've contributed

quite a bit to the league's
development, and to Tomura's.

k*lling means nothing
without conviction.

[metallic clank]

I'm afraid I have no more
use for you, hero k*ller.

Your role ends now.

That's where you're wrong,

Demon Lord.

There's more at play here.

[ALL MIGHT]
Don't you touch him!

[STAIN] I may not have
received a proper education,

You taught me exactly
what a hero should be.

I can no longer use
my support items,

I can't fight anymore.

Our weight is looking good.

We should be able to keep the
coffin in the sky airborne now.

[MAN] All for One is closing
in on Tomura Shigaraki!

U.A. [COFFIN IN THE SKY]

He's within range
to use Sludge Warp!

After Midoriya got here, he
moved the battle away from UA.

Since that time, he's managed
to parry Shigaraki's attacks

at a close range.

Somehow, he's kept the two
of them at stalemate,

but All For One has that
damned warp ability.

And now he's close enough
to use it.

He can transport
Shigaraki to his side.

The balance we've maintained
is about to collapse!

[ALL FOR ONE] Since
the moment I injected Rewind,

this spot has been
my destination.

Once I transfer my duplicated
Quirk to Tomura,

he'll become an iteration of me

that surpasses
all that I am now.

Keep at it.

I just have to stay on him
a little longer.

Running away, you coward?

Get back over here

Izuku Midoriya can't interfere.

Come to me, Tomura.

We've been apart far too long.

Hmm?

[TOMURA] Don't get in the way.

Tomura has already
consumed my consciousness.

Oh, no.
