Chapter 13: Johnny The Nomu



It was time for Sensei to arrive. Kyudai was always a little nervous, which he couldn't say about Taiko. The guy wanted to see the parent from whose blood he was created. Sometimes Taiko was even surprised at how easily he talked about it. A black tinted car with several cars behind it pulled up to the parking lot.

"He increased security..." Kyudai whispered, showing something unusual. Everyone knew about the strong activation of heroes in nearby cities due to the death of Nana Shimura. In Tokyo, Musutafu and many other areas of the metropolis. Even the small town of Jaku was affected by this, because the headquarters of the Detnerat corporation appeared here.

Sooner or later, Taiko understands this fashion laboratory, someone makes a mistake and leaves a trace. He needs to have a spare safe place, preferably in secret from Kyudai and Sensei. Akiko's house was ideal, only he, as a minor, cannot register it in his name. It is still worth turning to Kyudai with this question. After all, they are all in one object, and if Kyudai is revealed, those involved in his criminals will be arrested, including Taiko himself. As an option, he was also considering Kyudai's house, in which no one had lived for a long time.

- Welcome! - he bowed affably to the hospital staff. This middle-aged man smiled in response and waved his hand. Only Taiko and Kyudai knew about his insincerity. The same guy watched from the side, in a dark pose. He went through everything together with Sato, who was in the role of a bodyguard. Sensei demonstratively walked around the clinic before entering the office and removing this mask of good nature. He took off his hat and revealed his gaze in an eye cabinet closed from the entrance.

- "So this is what you look like." - Taiko recognized some of the facial features with his own, but due to Sensei's age, they were not very well developed. A majestic face and cunning eyes. There's nothing more to say.

-Please introduce me to this young man. Is he here thanks to you, Kyudai? - a final and rough voice rang out.

-That's right, it's the assistant.

-Does he really know about our plan?

-That's right.

Sensei turned to Sato, who, as he understood from his look, was also aware of Taiko. To which he only chuckled.

Sensei looked closely at Taiko with his red pupils. His short white hair shone and reflected in the light. -If you're confident in him, then why not. Usually the work begins at different speeds when you need help. -continued to doubt and suspiciously glance at All For One.

-All those same years, it's not me anymore, Sensei. We have something to show you. Let's go. - they took turns going down into the secret opening that appeared along the Kyudai Election Commission.

Akiko peeked out from around the corner of the office door, behind everyone's backs.

- Akiko, not now. - Taiko whispered.

... - We named him Johnny. The first, a small but brainless Nomu appeared. And the Second - Urine.

A mock-up of two creatures appeared in front of All For One. Johnny - he had a pair of light-emitting laced boots on his feet, and a transparent helmet on his head with various mechanisms protruding from each, one of which was used to manually activate his quirk. - We were afraid to make him too aggressive, so we cut back on his physical capabilities. A support quirk is perfect for him.

- He doesn't have a quirk yet, but I think you can solve this problem. If you want to complete the plan, we need more human bodies, which... are problematic to transport, unfortunately.

- Wonderful. - All For One smiled. He put his hand to a completely harmless existence. Taiko watched with an unprecedented and barely noticeable surprise as All For One passed on the quirk. - "What kind of devilish ability... Now it's clear why my clones had such good traits with his quirk." Taiko had quirks based on interaction with other quirks. The only question remains: Why doesn't Taiko himself have good traits? A genetic joke?

-Now it will be much easier for you to transport the body, as well as the creator of the Nomu empire. I need those who will not betray and will unquestioningly follow my orders, as well as be a repository of My quirks. - All For One clearly stands out sore word. He passed on a rather nasty quirk Warping to Johnny. - I expect more powerful and hardy Nomu, aimed at duels, who can withstand pro heroes or even defeat them.

- "He wants his own small but strong army. Given time, Kyudai himself could start making a much stronger Nomu than Johnny. However, there is a small subtlety here. Kyudai considers me the heir of Sensei, and Sensei himself does not suspect my origin. All Nomu will train to obey Sensei's command. The best outcome is to add another master to them. Higher and closer than some Sensei. Why would they listen to Sensei if they could listen to me. Future Nomu will completely obey me, while Kyudai, Sensei and God knows who else will think that they have control over them, but this is for now I give them such an order." The cunning plan of the Taiko reader is gaining momentum long before UA and the incredible story of Izuku Midoriya.

Kyudai had already demonstrated his psychological techniques and training on Johnny and Mochi. He was going to use them. This would require regularity and a lot of time, but it seemed he had an idea how to speed up this process, and in the meantime, a number of problems had formed that needed to be solved.

Taiko did not share Sensei's thoughts regarding the Nomu army. He simply had a premonition that the Nomu army would rather ruin everything in the future than be useful, there was a very high probability of using them incorrectly. Therefore, it would be useful to have control over them if necessary. He remembered Akiko, and realized that he would not be able to combine all the tasks at once and would have to solve them one by one. - "Akiko still needs to start going to school ..." - Just thinking about her made him feel caring or something. However, Kyudai could also learn programming, having possessed a lot of knowledge over his long life.

- "Somehow he built this laboratory, apparently he made his own software."

Suddenly, All For One abruptly approached and touched Taiko, taking away his quirk.

-!!!. - everyone was surprised. Taiko generally plopped down on the floor. Because of this trick, he felt his vulnerability and the difference in strength between Sensei and him.

-Hmm...- Sensei tried to understand the stolen quirk. He needed to calm his paranoia and demonstrate that betraying All For One was too expensive.

Taiko wanted to shout, "Give it back!" but he held back after remembering who was in front of him.

-Master, his quirk...

-I don't understand, it won't activate. Okay. - Realizing that Taiko's quirk was too weak and conditional, it was useless to him. Not finding any combat value in it, he returned it back. After that, Taiko felt not only the aftertaste of humiliation, but also the additional understanding he gained about his quirk.

-"Quirks are really like a person's identity, but it seems like when he stole it, I didn't feel any special changes, although I should have."
