Earlier that day. . .

"Say my back gets itchy and I try to scratch it against the chair. In that instant all the turrets in the room lock onto me, they're also monitoring my vital signs and brain waves, so if I even think of using a quirk I'm as good as dead." All For One explained to All Might who was sitting across the other side of thick glass

"Were deep underground with layers and layers of security, it's how they dispose of the broken like me. . . Our society calls this place Tartarus from Greek mythology. It's the name of the deity representing hell itself, I have to admit even I would have trouble against this particular god." All For One said with a wicked smile

"No, you can't get out at all." All Might replied quickly

"Ah believe what you want. Why have you come?" All For One asked with an evil smile

"Where's Gran Torino or are you on your own? What's with the costume? I assume it's your way of clinging to lingering regrets? Or are you still trying to play hero?" All For One said with a scoff

"You talk too much." All Might replied bluntly

"Humor me. I haven't had a real conversation in what feels like forever." All For One replied quickly

"Where is Shigaraki?" All Might asked firmly

"Dunno, unlike yours, mine has already left the nest." All For One explained

"What do you want? What did you want?" All Might asked rephrasing his question

"You surpassed your body's limit, you might have lived forever with that body. Instead, you wasted your gifts on manipulation, exploitation, toying with people what did you hope to achieve?" All Might asked

"This is hardly a productive discussion" All For One replied

"I could tell you but you would never accept it. There are people who will refuse to understand. Believe or not were the same you and I, while you looked up to heroes, I looked up to the devil. I held on to my ideals and would have spared no effort to live in a world shaped by those ideals." All For One explained

"So why set up a successor?" All Might asked

"Really you're asking me that?! Haha, I love it!" All For One said with a laugh

"Because you stole everything away from me of course! Look at this body. These tubes are the only thing keeping me alive. My ideals had unlimited potential until you put a stop to my designs." All For One explained

"Think about it. When people know the end is near, they leave legacies, think about everything around us, it's all passed down from person to person. I was just trying to do what everyone else does." All For One said with a twisted grin

"Three more minutes All Might" a guard said over the intercom

"No, wait! You can't do this to me. I want to talk, more. Ah right, how are things truly?" All For One asked calmly

"A reminder that news from the outside is forbidden here All Might" The guard added quickly

"Right." All Might said

"What a shame. . . but I have a hunch. The world is probably losing it after finding out you can't protect them any more right? And now they have to reluctantly accept Endeavor as the new number 1 hero. However, some people can feel the creeping unease, more and more people are going to come out of the shadows now that you're out of the picture. And all you can do is watch as the world plunges into chaos because of your powerlessness. Tell me, how does it feel?" All For One explained with a sinister smile
