Izuku leads the whole entire Quirkless Rejects Japan Branch into the warehouse secretively. They had no need to be secretive now. Still, it was quiet. The nostalgia of the warehouses hit them all at once. He entered and climbed onto the stage with the other Light's. As the members were filing in, Izuku ran his hand along the wall with the QR insignia on it behind the stage. It was so familiar. Izuku turned back to the crowd. It saddened him to realize that before the war, not all of them could fit in the main warehouse. Now, even if it was just barely and very cramped, everyone fit. Ruske was already setting up the setup for the live stream to the site. Izuku closed his eyes and let the feeling of 'home' wash over him. No one knew his eyes were closed, so he didn't look all that weird. Izuku opened them again just as Ruske was standing up. "All set, Chief." Izuku nodded. The Lights got in a row behind him. Izuku nodded and Ruske started the live stream. Izuku's sunglasses went happy immediately.

"Congratulations!" he started, chipper. "We won the war! Let me start off with how much of an amazing feat this is. Us, a ragtag bunch of misfits, with over 3/4th's of us not having a quirk, went up against the whole entire world, all of its superpowers, all of its quirks and heroes and military forces, and we won! We did it, friends! We lost many along the way, though, and let us never forget their sacrifice. For now, take this month to heal up. In a month and freshen up on your Japanese," Japanese being the designated language of their new country, "because in a month we will all be going to the Isle of the Quirkless to start building our new country!" Everyone cheered.
"Regarding the Isle of the Quirkless, I am sure you all saw the news and you have already heard about my new quirk," Izuku did nothing to hide his disgust, "so I am sure you know that after our country is completely built, I will be having to take every member of the Quirkless Rejects with a quirk's quirk. Some may be useful for the building so I will not be taking them when we all get there. But I assure you, I plan to continue living my life as quirkless. No matter how many I take, I will not be using any of them. The Isle of the Quirkless is meant for the quirkless to thrive so while I will be taking them and they will still be held within my body, I will retain the title of quirkless and not use any of them. I have already spoken with the Round Table about getting everyone there so on May 1st, please all be at your nearest airport with an identification card that I will be shipping to each country tomorrow. It will verify you as a member of the Quirkless Rejects. After the country is set up, while you will all be working jobs and having new lives outside of the Quirkless Rejects, please keep those cards and keep training. Every country needs an army and I hope that you will all be part of it."
He paused for a breath.
"And, once again, congratulations. Also, to all of you, thank you for continuing to follow me and my plans. Thank you for joining the Quirkless Rejects, quirked or quirkless, whether I make you quirkless or not, whether you go back to being a civilian on the Isle, you will forever be a valued member of the Quirkless Rejects and a valued member of my family. Thank you."

The live stream cut off. Izuku walked off the stage with the Light's as the crowd cheered. Doctor ran over to the group. "A- ah, Chief Deku, Bubblegum, and Doom, someone is waiting for you at the couches." Izuku hummed. "Who is it? We just got back, can it not wait?" The man shook his head. Bubblegum put her hand in the greenette's shoulder. "It's fine, Chief. I am sure it will only be a second." Izuku sighed and rolled his neck that popped. All of his joints pop nowadays. "Fine. Thank you for informing us, Doctor."

Izuku, Bubblegum, and Doom all made their way through the crowd and to the couches. Many patted their backs and whooted and hollered as they passed by. Izuku chuckled quietly. They finally broke through and made their way to the couches. Before even sitting down, Izuku was tackled by a ball of fur. His eyes widened as he fell on his butt.
"H- HONEY!!!"
Izuku grabbed his border collie around the neck and hugged her tightly. She licked his face all over, his sunglasses falling off. Izuku laughed. "C- calm down, girl!" It took a bit but she did eventually. Izuku huffed and got up, patting down his suit. He put his sunglasses back on and peeled off his face mask. "I'll just pocket that for now." Honey's slobber was on it. Izuku looked up to see Doom and Bubble kneeling on the ground, hugging a familiar little girl. He smiled.
Little Rena... Izuku walked up and crouched next to the three. Rena turned to him. She looked confused before her face lit up and she jumped on him. "Unky Deku!" He smiled and caught her. "Hey, little girl!" Soon the other Light's broke through and came to join them on the floor.
It was a joyous reunion.
