When Quirks Appeared...
The beginning of this amazing era was marred by the collapse of society, caused by the sudden rise of crime as more and more Quirks appeared. During this time, All for One became a symbol of unity among the confused and afraid people. He used his Quirk to take Quirks from those who did not want them and give them to those who did, under the guise of returning order to the world. In this way, he gathered loyal followers who helped him fulfill his desires. He gathered an entire army of his supporters and, manipulating them like pawns, attempted to seize power over all of Japan.
However, his evil plan was foiled by his younger brother. Under unclear circumstances, All for One outsmarted him and wanted to take his Quirk from him, but he did not know that his Quirk was the ability to transfer his power to others. The two quirks merged and mutated into One For All.
But despite his new quirk, All For One's younger brother couldn't defeat him, so he passed it on to the next generation in hopes that One For All would one day be strong enough to stand against evil.
Seven generations later... All For One killed All Might's predecessor, Nana Shimura. She died fighting All For One, leaving her student Toshinori Yagi in Gran Torino's care. Yagi has now inherited the power and become the eighth user of One For All.
Now, All For One has time until the next heir to his power grows strong. He has always had an idea in mind to create a mindless army of pawns - the Nomu{1}. Combine this with poly-quirk and you get an effective way if not to destroy, then at least weaken the Almighty, you need to create something that can cut off the line of succession of One for All once and for all. The only competitor.
All For One faced a problem, it was quite difficult to kill Shimura Nana, even though he masterfully hid it, but there was a limit to his strength. All For One allowed you to steal and appropriate an unknown, but still limited number of quirks. The experience of fighting Shimura Nana was quite bitter, All For One understood that with each next generation the quirk becomes stronger, and he himself, possessing a huge number of quirks, is very ossified, unable to compete with young blood, which each time tries to overcome the limits.
A huge number of quirks is not the same as their quality.
Kyudai Garaki - an old man who looks 65 years old with a bushy mustache and strange glasses, a loyal subject of All For One, a talented and responsible scientist, surgeon, geneticist. Quirk: Longevity, for a long life, having gained experience in working with quirks on people, together with All For One they began to create
In addition to experimenting with Nomu, All For One couldn't pass up the chance to experiment with combining Quirks to create effective combinations. This would take quite a bit of time. For now, he should lay low and give orders, bribe a few officials, and that would be it. All that was left was to collect Quirks, replenish the range of materials. There are a couple of options in mind.
At one time, All For One almost ruled Japan, under his leadership, entire generations of yakuza and other organizations flourished. As a result, he still has many connections and funds. All For One felt what power was, it had previously interested him greatly, now having rethought the very concept of power, ideas have developed from "power is might" to the level of "power is just a tool". And it became very burdensome. He liked to correct and observe everything from behind the scenes. In the shadows. So that the actors on stage themselves could direct the game, and at the right moment...
In general, a remote village was chosen for the material, where there are no services and the influence of heroes and the police, and enough people live to get good quirks. The village is also very far from the future heroic world hub - Musutafu, the nearest road was ten kilometers away from it, and the time is right, while the heroes are recovering from the losses and devastation after the recent battle, and recently the Almighty conducted a raid on a couple of All For One escapes in an attempt to find the culprit of the death of the mentor. Having hired a group of mercenaries loyal to money - Onishi and having gone there in the middle of the night, All For One counted on get quirks related to endurance, brute force. Such people make good Nomu. After all, given the evolution and adaptive inclinations, in such places people with the quirks he needs were born more often. Also given my own experience and statistics.
In a world where the use of quirks is strictly controlled and banned by law, of course there will be an alternative - the dark world, the other side of the coin. It is impossible to resist using a quirk when you are literally given incredible strength from birth, especially when you can be paid blood money for its use. It is very difficult to destroy the nascent and rooted shadow business not only in Japan, but throughout the world. But since Japan is the world hub of the strongest heroes, it is expected that control and suppression of such embryos of dirty business will not be difficult, but the situation is just the opposite.
Onishi is an increasingly popular criminal mercenary group of people using quirks. Officially, they work through intermediaries and the results of their work are increasingly appearing in the media. Consists of seven fairly trained professionals who previously worked alone, doing small business: delivering drugs, weapons, sometimes kidnapping and blackmail. They have practically nothing in common except the thirst for enrichment. They wear masks similar to demonic ones. The leader of this group is the so-called Last Demon - Takedo, through whose red mask they looked with their unreadable gaze, gray eyes. He had medium-sized jet-black hair. Particularly dangerous, a reward has been placed on his head. Quirk is unknown.
In Japanese, the word
Onishi's plan was simple: A fire would cause all the people to gather in a heap. This is where Kemuri, whose quirk is a colorless sleeping gas, comes into play. It makes sense that when people see a fire, they will go and put it out. After the mercenaries have neutralized and captured all the people from the entire village, the next order was to simply "wait," whatever that means.
"What do you want from us?" asked a mercenary sitting in one of the cars.
"This time, capture." The man in the demonic mask calmly drove the truck.
"This anonymous customer has hired several other groups lately, the leader told me - a third one has joined. "But he pays a lot of money." He lit a cigarette.
"Let's get this over with quickly. - a convoy consisting of a couple of trucks was heading along the only road in the area. - We still have to walk.
The driver of the first car saw a hay cart driving along the road towards the suburbs.
- One ahead. - A window opened from a car passing directly in front of the driver of the cart.
- W-would you like directions, dears?
- We know the way. - the masked figure answered.
A cloud of practically invisible gas burst out, putting the villager to sleep. Then they threw him into the cargo and continued driving.
- We'll stop here. - one of the mercenaries confirmed, looking at the map. - Then we'll walk through the forest.
The squad left the trucks and headed to the village of Shitara to wipe it off the face of the earth.
