Toshinori had known there would be many complications with his predicament... his time was running out, but every time he had seen a villain causing chaos, he would buff up and chase after them. He couldn't help it, the hero that Nana had made him become. From being a quirkless hopeful to the number one hero... he couldn't help but thank his predecessor.

Though his entire form wanted to keep one for all... to make sure he could be a hero for as long as possible... and if he kept the quirk the quirk would still be somewhat usable... if he passed it along well... it would fade faster..."I can just wait till I can't no more..."

His thought process was immediately noticed by the 7 other predecessors inside his quirk... and they have to do something about it... they had a small inkling that their nemesis, All for one was still alive... even after seeing All might cave his head in... the body was never fully retrieved as the building the fight had been the battle ground caved in around him... and the body wasn't ever truly seen again.

Toshinori was getting weaker... and if they didn't find a new vessel for one for all, All for one would surely come back stronger then ever... Nana Shimura who was watching from behind Toshinori as she floated around, knowing her choice was good... but his fear of returning to be quirkless was going to hinder the entire fate of the world... she went forward as the sludge villain he was chasing went down into a manhole with all might following after...

...

It took a while but All Might managed to come climbing out of the manhole where a small teenager was being suffocated by the slime. With a quick wind up of his punch his slammed his fist in front of the sludge and blew it away from the struggling teen.. the boy coughed and ragged out all of the sludge before laying on the concrete, trying to catch his breath while All might had winced at the force of his own punch. "Damn villain. Getting ahold a child is low." Picking up the bottles he had brought he started filling them while Nana Shimura floated above the boy, who was in a daze staring up at the ceiling. "All might?" He shouted out as his eyes had finally fixated on the hero that had saved him.

"Haha yes dear citizen! It is I!" Nana Shimura could only look on in amusement as the boy had started to gush and frantically grabbed at his pen and notebook. "P-Please c-could I have a-a au-autograph??" All might being as quick as he could slid the pen across the entire page as the green haired teen started to bow deeply. "T-thank you! All might!" The ghost who had been looking at the teen in a silent remanence. Seeing a form of a younger Toshinori behind the small teen. "Not a problem young one. Now it's time for me to be off." Nana could only roll her eyes as she felt his hold on one for all slip, knowing it was a small ploy so he could go back to his skinny form. "W-wait!" Just as All might was Jumping and Nana saw it with a small widening of her eyes as the teen grabbed ahold of his pant leg as he launched into the sky. Nana being connected to Toshinori was watching on in a bit of concerned amusement for the boy who was trying to hang on for dear life while Toshinori landed on a building.

"That was very reckless of you. You shouldn't do such thing" Nana couldn't help but agree before the boy shouted out a cry. "Can a quirkless person ever become a hero!?" Nana and Toshinori froze in their spot as she turned towards the teen who had tears flowing down his face. "I'm... I'm quirkless, and m-my whole life... I was t-told... that it was impossible... b-but I want to believe... "He looked up with his tears cascading down "I want to believe I can save everyone with a smile like you!" Nana couldn't help the hope and joy as she had seen a perfect successor... looking back towards Toshinori she paled in worry seeing not a smile on his face, but a sad frown. "No my boy. I'm afraid its impossible to be a quirkless hero." Nana bit her lip as he said this... he wasn't fully wrong... but to say that when he also was in the same boat. "Toshinori... you idiot." She muttered as she looked back to the teen who's eyes had faded into a dark place. "If that is all.. I shall be on my way." Nana had felt a small pull as she watched the man charge another jump leaping away from the boy... but her feet was surprisingly firm to the ground. Not taking a step away from the boy. "I didn't move..." as she thought this a small amount of glow appeared in her hand... looking up towards the silently shaking boy, she silently looked back down to the glowing aura at her hands...
