Regarding Kaminari Denki's question, All For One did not answer immediately. Instead, he looked at the brilliant goldericity crag around Kaminari with a hint of admiration.

  "This move of yours... is called 'High Voltage Mode,' isn't it? It triples your movement speed, firing speed, aion speed. It also gives you the ability to stay airboremporarily by leveraging your extreme speed—essentially allowing flight."

  "At the same time, each of your punches and kicks carries approximately 100,000 volts of electricity, making you a formidable force both offensively and defensively."

  All For One had spent siderable time researg Kaminari, especially his Quirk, as it was critical to uanding the young hero's capabilities.

  The oute of this research, however, had been surprising. All For One had ultimately abahe idea of stealing Kaminari's Quirk. The reason was simple: Kaminari's "Electrification" Quirk, in and of itself, was not particurly outstanding.

  In fact, All For One pared Kaminari's Quirk to several htning-based Quirks, and the results were clear. Kaminari's ability had several signifit fws pared to others.

  For example, Kaminari's "Electrification" required manual charging to store electricity. Meanwhile, another Quirk called "Electriergy" allowed the user to absorb charged particles from the air passively.

  In terms of trol, Kaminari initially had no way of direg his electricity, unlike another Quirk called "Thunder trol," which allowed the user to freely manipute external currents. Although "Thunder trol" initially required the use of a small geor, its potential suggested that with proper training, the user might eventually trol charged particles imosphere, or even summon lightning from storm clouds.

  pared to such capabilities, Kaminari's Quirk seemed unremarkable. His current strength clearly wasn't due to the Quirk itself but rather his genius-level creativity and rigorous practice. Even if All For Oo steal Kaminari's Quirk, it wouldn't replicate his abilities.

  This realization was one of the reasons All For One valued Kaminari so much.

  "Although you seem to know me very well, I have to say, there are thousands of people in Japan who've analyzed me iail. So, this isn't particurly impressive," Kaminari said with feigned nonce, masking his tension with a hint of teasing.

  His statement wasirely untrue. As his reputation had grown, many people had started analyzing his abilities. Fans had eveed detailed character profiles, breaking down his skills and performances across different sarios.

  "However," All For Oerrupted, "what they don't know is the other side of your soul and that's what I'm here to help you uncover."

  "The other side? Help me?" Kaminari raised his eyebrows in mock surprise. "Well, before we go any further, care to expin who you are and why you're here?"

  All For Oated briefly before deg to tinue. However, instead of addressing Kaminari's question directly, he suggested a ge in venue.

  "I reveal my identity and the truth about this world to you, but before we discuss further, we relocate to somewhere less... exposed?"

  Kaminari's expression didn't ge, but his tone carried a hint of sarcasm. "You haven't even told me who you are or what you want. Do you really think I'd just follow you somewhere without knowing anything? Do I look like a three-year-old to you?"

  All For One paused, sidering Kaminari's point, before nodding slightly. "Fair enough. Let's talk here."

  It wasn't that he couldn't force Kaminari to ply—he easily could. But Kaminari wasn't just a pawn or a disposable tool; he was someone All For One hoped to win over willingly. Furthermore, All Might was currently far away in Shizuoka Prefecture, giving him plenty of time. The Heroes in Saitama City were insignifit in parison, and even if they arrived, they posed hreat to him.

  "My story begins with the first geion of this so-called 'new world,'" All For One began.

  Over the wenty minutes, he reted his history with One For All, detailing the brutal struggles and the ins of their flict. As Kaminari listened, he pieced together some of the missing parts of this world's narrative.

  However, Kaminari's focus wasn't on the epic battle between All For One and One For All. Instead, his thoughts drifted to two specifidividuals: All Might and Midoriya Izuku.

  Sure, the rivalry between the forces of justid darkness sounded grand, but as someone who had watched tless stories with simir plots, Kaminari found it a bit clichéd. Heroiarratives like this were far from unique.

  "All Might is the eighth wielder of One For All, and All For One is a Quirk that be passed down," Kaminari thought. "All Might was severely injured in his battle with All For One and had to find a successor. Then along es Midoriya Izuku with his terrifying explosive potential..."

  As Kaminari ected the dots, his eyes lit up with sudden crity. He realized something that even All For One might not know yet.

  "All Might passed One For All to Midoriya Izuku!"

  "No wonder!" Kaminari muttered to himself. "That's why Midoriya always felt... off. This kid is the quintessential shonen manga protagonist!"

  Even as All For One tinued narrating, Kaminari's thoughts raced. The setting, the characters, the themes—they all began to align in his mind.

  "A society built around superpowers, an academy setting, the iance of justid darkness, themes of friendship, hard work, and triumph..."

  At that moment, Kaminari began to suspect that he had somehow nded in another manga world, a world he hadn't read about yet.

  "And if this really is a 'Jump' world," Kaminari specuted, "then acc to the genre's logic, the dark forces will iably lose in the end!"

  Kaminari's gaze shifted to All For One, his expression growing more plicated. Based on what he'd heard, this man was undoubtedly the story's ultimate vilin, a figure destio csh with All Might.

  "If All Might passes his power to Midoriya, the narrative will shift to focus on the geion. That means both All Might and All For One are destio step aside, either due to injuries or ht death. The story will theer on Midoriya and a younger, up-and-ing vilin."

  "And that new vilin will likely be powerful, charismatid—" Kaminari paused, gng at himself. "...wait, could that be me?"

  The idea hit him like a lightning bolt. Kaminari's appearance, personality, and abilities all seemed to fit the archetype of a -geion antagonist.

  "But if that's true," Kaminari thought, "why would All For One be seeki now? My existence here started as a baby... If I really was meant to be the vilin, shouldn't my appearance have been altered by the plot?"

  Kaminari's gaze returo All For One, who had just finished speaking. For a moment, the two stared at each other in silence, each trying to dis the other's thoughts.

  "Oh my god," Kaminari thought, feeling utterly perplexed. "What the hell is going on here?!"
