It's been one week since the villain scene. And currently, it was Saturday. Eiji and Midoriya were standing by the beach, both in shorts and shirts.
"It's time to train!" Eiji grinned, dropping his bag of stuff. He had made a full recovery in the last few days, no longer needing a cast.
"Hai!" Midoriya yelled, thrilled.
"First, we're going to solve your one for all problem and the good thing is I came prepared!"
"To solve it, we've seen what happens. I can't I'm just not able to use all this power," he said, looking at his palm.
"Exactly!" Eiji nodded, pulling out a lightbulb and battery connected by a wire.
"Eh? That's going to help me?" He asked, getting down on his knees.
"Yep," Eiji smiled sitting on the sand, "because Midoriya this lightbulb and battery are you!"
"EH!?"
"Don't scream so much," Eiji shut his ears, "metaphorically speaking, let's break down your quirk together alright."
"Mn, first One for all is a build-up collection of power passed down through generations and now in my hands."
"Uh-huh, but when you call this power, it is too much and hurts your body," Eiji said, switching on the power.
Both watched the lightbulb burn with light before exploding, "and that is you."
'I still don't get it,' Midoriya hummed for a moment before Eiji sighed and handed him the battery, connecting it to another lightbulb.
"Midoriya, turn the lightbulb on but not too much to make it explode."
'Okay? If this is me then,' he thought, looking down to the battery set at 100% power beside it was a small label for 5% for lightbulbs and more for different equipment.
He did just that and switched on, "I did it. I still don't get why?"
"Now stitch it off."
Believing in Eijiro he did just what and switched it off.
"Now imagine the moment you see it's not exploding. It's warm because you used enough power for the light bulb to turn on. I want you to imagine that bulb was your body and the battery as one for all."
'Imagine me as the lightbulb? Hm... At 100% it exploded because it was too much to bear. All I did was I lower the energy...' It was then a lightbulb lit up! He realised it!
"This lightbulb is me!" He jumped up, kicking sand.
"Finally! I brought three light bulbs just in case," Eiji grinned.
"Where did you get three specific lightbulbs from?"
"Our basement. We haven't used it, lately, so I figured it'd be fine."
...
"Dododoo going down with my valuable starfighters figures signed by the creator dodo doo~" Rio sang while flipping the light switch and stepping down.
-Bam! -Tumble
"Oh, shit fuck crap mother!"
-Thud!
"Cough, oof at least I didn't hear my figures crack, now just carefully stand up and-"
-Crack!
"...*Inhale* FAAAAAAAAAAAAAA-"
...
"It should be fine. I knew I was onto something, so we should test it out, don't ya think?" He grinned and stood up, "but start small with 1% of power and well slowly build out way up."
"Mn!" Midoriya grinned and clutched his fists.
-Crack!
Eiji slammed his fists going bulletproof he watched as light surged around Midoriya.
'Just a little the smallest portion my body can hold!' red marks crossed his body, and he stood up, 'One for all 1% Power!'
Eiji whistled, watching him power up, "so you think you can move?"
"Y-Yeah," he clenched his fists.
"Good cause we're going to spar, now get ready!" He roared, launching his fist.
Midoriya was too slow and got sent back into the sand.
"Oh shit. Oh?"
He got back up, reactivating one for all and charged he reeled back, 'smash!' and punched Eiji in his centre.
It struck, making him take a step back. "Not bad," he patted his shirt, "but not good enough!"
He countered with a sidekick to the stomach, sending Midoriya back again, and like expected, the hero stood back up, charging head first with a punch.
Eiji booked it going for a back kick, Midoriya could barely avoid it countering with a punch but when it landed.
-Bam!
Eiji barely moved, immediately countering with his fist to his face.
'He should learn how to fight properly,' Eiji thought, seeing Midoriya fall out of one for all.
"Try to kick it up a notch 2 per cent?"
Just as he said that Midoriya gasped, falling to the sand, "my body hurts," he shivered, "but it's okay."
"Well, we should take a break then, and I can use this time to teach you how to throw a proper punch."

"I can punch."
"No, what you're doing is moving your fists. It's not even a straight punch, here get up and follow me."
Midoriya dusted himself, mirroring Eijiro's motion and swinging back and forth, "maybe I should learn some martial art?"
"It's up to you my suggestion Karate is good, though that's my opinion." The two got into a light conversation about hero things, support items, quirks, and more.
"Thank you, Eijiro. I appreciate your help," Midoriya smiled at the waves.
"Yeah, of course, I need to make the number 2 spot is in powerful hands after all."
"Number 2?"
"What you didn't think just cause you gained one for all it meant you'd be number 1, right? Pft hahaha, I'm also aiming for that spot to become a hero who can protect everyone. If I have to be number 1, then I will!"
"Oh, w-well watch out for me because I'm also going to be number 1!"
"Hey, that's the spirit! Hehe, do you think you're good for another spar?"
"Un I think I might go to 2 to per cent!" He gleamed and stood up.
"Good, because I'm done holding back." Eiji flashed a toothy grin before getting up.
"Eh?" Midoriya froze for a moment, his heart racing.
...
This was three days ago when he removed the cast along his arm. One of the first things he did was take the x-ray pad he got and harden his muscles and bones.
It was a given that when he thought against Nomu; he was stronger than before, but completely hardening his muscles would've made him unable to move.
But with what he discovered, he immediately updated his manual.
[Manly Quirk Manual]
Harden: The power to harden and sharpen the skin and parts of the body, causing the flesh to become jagged and rock-like with each hit. Its strength and durability increase.
Effects: strength and speed & Sharpen, Hand blades, claws. Hardening hair. Resistant to most physical trauma, burns, electrocution, and acid.
>Flex hardening: Semi-Hardening the muscle and bone to improve strength, endurance and speed can apply to any of the three levels of hardening.
>Level 1: Bulletproof a full-body harden strong enough to take bullets & minor explosions head-on. Limit: 4 hours straight. [Just keep training!]
>Level 2: Chivalrous knight! Further improved hardening to specific areas, leaving gaps like knight's armour. Greater durability and strength. Limit: 30 minutes [Goal: 1 hour]
>Level 3 Red riot unbreakable. [Current goal]
...
'Level 2 hardening and Flex hardening,' Eiji grunted, his body screeching like metal. His body was getting stronger than before. Every area of his body hardening a step further. The muscle and bone beneath his shell as well.
He didn't have to worry about his internal organs. They were also hardened, passively not like his muscle and bone, but enough for him not to worry about it after surviving Nomu's attacks.
'I already practised I can apply Flex hardening on level 1 no problem, what I need to do is master and hold it to level 2.'
Midoriya took a step back. He wasn't sure why, but he felt like this would not be easy.
"Are you ready?" Eiji's hardened teeth formed into a smile.
Midoriya gave a shaky smile, lightning dancing around him. "one for all 2% power!" he shouted, hyping himself up. His body felt ablaze, but he could handle it!
"Smash!" He charged, punching Eiji in the face!
-BAM!
The sand exploded around them. His fist shook. He did not push Eijiro back! "My turn." He said, reeling his fist back and with everything smashing it against Midoriya's stomach.
He went flying back instantly. A much larger explosion of air and sand kicked akin to a minor explosion as Midoriya flew back a considerable distance, tumbling across the sand.
"Cough! Cough! You didn't hold back," he failed to get up, his face dirty and covered in sand.
'Hmm, I wonder how strong I am like this? Just level 1 on its own and I punch through concrete walls easily. How big is the power increase with Flex harden 3? 5? times that maybe 10?'
He wondered getting out of his hardened state, 'just using Flex harden no one would tell I've changed could be useful getting an upper hand.' Eiji thought, giving Midoriya a hand up.
"So I think we should stop for today," he said, cleaning the sand off him.
"No, I can still, uh g-go on," he said weakly, clutching his stomach.
"How about no? We made some groundbreaking. discoveries didn't you think about that?"
"That right! Thank you, Eijiro! Without you, I wouldn't have done this. I can slowly train and become accustomed to using one for all at its maximum! I- how can I repay you?"
"What are friends for? You don't have to. Besides, we're training together. I also get something out of it."
"Y-yeah, but it feels like I gained more out of this than you," he mumbled, 'friend's right, he's my friend! Like Ochako and Iida!'
"But I still want to make it up to you!"
Seeing the resilience in his eyes, he sighed, "Mn fine... okay, tell me about you and Bakugo over some snacks. There is a small place near to here. I'm kind of curious considering he's all like I'm gonna kill you, Deku!"
"I-I can do that." Midoriya smiled. The two bumped fists and went ahead into the city. Midoriya opened up about his past with Bakugo and heard everything Eiji's view of him warped slightly, now realising the toxicity that exists between the two.
He tried to give some advice to him about not backing down and being a man, but the most important thing is that Bakugo needs to change and apologise, which he can't see happening soon.
But it also made him realise his powerful spirit being able to keep aspiring to be a hero despite everything thrown at him. It was very manly.
"I see..."
"Y-yeah but I'm okay really, I have a question for you Eijiro, what was it like awakening your quirk for the first time?" the green boy asked with a thrill in his voice.
The two talked about many things, from heroes to movies and more, before calling it a day and returning home.
'Tomorrow I'm dancing with Mina that should be fun,' he sighed tucking himself in bed.
