All for One's p.o.v
I will admit, after watching through Shiguraki and Kurogiri's eyes what the king had done, I did feel sorry for the young prince. I saw how much he was hurting, but that hurt would also benefit me in my revenge, now all I had to do was wait for them to arrive 'Now to get into the act of caring and wanting to help young Katsuki.' Time for my plan to begin, once he gets here. But I also couldn't shake the feeling that his princess was familiar to me in some way, like I'd seen her somewhere before.

Katsuki's p.o.v
It had to of been at least an hour since me and the eels left my grotto, we were in a dark part of the ocean and up ahead I could see a weird looking skeleton that was glowing purple. As we got closer I suddenly felt apprehensive and stopped wondering if I'd made the right decision the eels also stopped and turned to me saying "This way young prince" I swallowed my fear because in my heart there was no turning back now and followed them inside. What I saw once inside the entrance caused me to slightly grimace in disgust, there were these weird looking plants that were all crying out. Suddenly one of them wrapped itself around my wrist and I quickly got free swimming up the ceiling to get away from it. I was debating on whether to use my quirk on them when a deep voice calling out caused them to stop "Come in. Come in my child. We mustn't lurk in doorways" and slowly I swam into what looked like an entrance hall as All for One appeared "It's rude" I admit, I'd heard stories but they didn't compare to actually seeing him in person he turned away from me "One might question your upbringing young man" then he chuckled and sat in front of a mirror as he spoke about the reason I was here without me even telling him "Now, let me see. You're here because you have a thing for this human, this uh princess I believe?" Ok he must have a quirk that's let's him see memories or something because I hadn't said anything about why I was here and there was no sign of the eels that brought me here. He turned to me as he said "Not that I blame you. She's quite the beautiful catch isn't she?" He turned back to his mirror with a chuckle, as I replied to his last statement "Yeah, she fucking is" I could agree with him there.

He picked up some weird looking item and put it around his neck as he continued "Well angel fish. The solution to your problem is simple" it was? What does he mean by that? He looked at me in the mirror again with a smile as he said "The only way to get what you want, is to become a human yourself prince Katsuki" wait what, me, become a human, was it possible? So with a small gasp I said in what I admit was probably the most hopeful voice I'd ever used since I was a kid "Can you do that? Is it really possible? Can you turn me into a human?" If he could I think I would take it even if it was only for a day, anything to be able to walk with her, just once. He said not answering my question "Young Katsuki, your father hurt you today, in one of in my opinion, the worst ways a father can harm their child. He destroyed your dream right in front of you, well your old one anyway" he was right about that, he had, learning about the human world was what I had dreamed of, until I saw her, Adrianna. And that was when I made my choice I would accept the sea wizard's help "And you'd really help me?" He smiled in his mirror once again then turned to face me and began singing.

"My dear, sweet child. That's what I do. It's what I live for, to help poor unfortunate merfolk, like yourself. Poor souls with no-one else to turn to" All for One approaches the prince and places a hand on his chin, to which Katsuki cringed away from. All for One then swam around him as he continued "I admit that in the past I've been nasty. They weren't kidding when they called me well, a wizard" his eels had joined him and snickers at this part before swimming off again "But you'll find that nowadays, I've mended all my ways. Repented, seen the light and made a switch. True yes" he approached the prince again and smiled at him "And I fortunately know a little magic. It's a talent that I always have possessed" he swam next to a rock which opened revealing a cauldron of some kind "And dear young man, please don't laugh. I use it on behalf, of the miserable, lonely and depressed, pathetic." Images of a fat mermaid and thin merman appeared "Poor unfortunate souls, in pain, in need. This one longing to be thinner, that one wants to get the girl, and do I help them? Yes indeed" All for One demonstrated how he had helped them get what they wanted. At the same time Ariel, Aizawa and Denki had reached the sea wizards home and were swimming past the weird creatures with fear on their faces "Those poor unfortunate souls, so sad, so true. They come flocking to my cauldron crying, spells All for One please. And I help them, yes I do" he turns to the images showed by his cauldron with a sorrowful look on his face "Now it's happened once or twice, someone couldn't pay the price. And I'm afraid I had to rake 'em 'cross the coals" Katsuki looked on in horror, as the two merpeople were turned into the creatures that lined the entrance to the lair "Yes I've had the odd complaint. But on the whole I've been a saint. To those poor unfortunate souls" All for One wrapped seaweed over his head and put his hands in a prayer position, before pulling it off and making his way to the prince.
