Months have passed since my enlightenment and ever since then, I have given my absolute best to perfect my newfound power. Though I was practicing to Fire bend I didn't neglect my sword training for it is my root and a tree can't grow without its root.
It was my foundation and if I abandon that my building would collapse.
Every week on Toshinori-san's weekly visit I would always request a spar and fortunately, Toshinori-san always complied happily.
And today is Sunday time for me Toshinori-san's weekly sparring.
--------------------
I heard a knock on my door and immediately knew who it was, going on it I opened it revealing a man with a muscular build in a white T-shirt having an iconic smile. It was Toshinori-san or otherwise known as Allmight.
"Toshinori-san How was your week?"
"HAHA, Just the usual young boy nothing noteworthy yet."
He said replying to me.
"Ready for our Sparring?"
I asked him excitedly, but instead of getting a yes answer, he answered differently. His face suddenly turned serious and his tone changed for a bit.
"Uhmm, about that... We won't be having our weekly sparring instead I'm here to tell you something."
Looking curious about this situation I invited him inside to further know the detail of what he wanted to say.
"Hmmm Why?"
" But first let's get inside Toshinori-san I'm pretty sure what you want to say is important."
Inviting him inside I took a seat as he too did on my opposite side of the table with freshly brewed tea on our side.
We were both sitting on the chair with a bit of a serious atmosphere permeating the air.
"So what was it that you want to tell me Toshinori-san?"
I asked him this time my usual calm and warm attitude replaced by that of a intense seriousness, of course I would take it as such considering Toshinori-san's serious attitude to this.
"Yoriichi."
He said my name this time without the 'Young'.
"Do you want to be a hero?"
I took on a calm face despite his unusual question and answered truthfully.
"Yes Toshinori-san"
He then asked.
"Why?.....Why do you want to be one?"
I answered him with both confidence and determination.
"I want to take your throne."
He was taken aback by my answered and his demeanor changed to that of a shock but it was then followed by my next words.
"I want to be the next symbol but for me I want to be the symbol of justice, I want to take on your mantle and be the next hero who will be the beacon of hope, those who knew my presence shall know peace and security and those who are not afraid of punishment shall met one, rampaging beast shall be put down and those who suffered will have revenge, and I want to end the current facade of heroes"
Toshinori hearing my answer showed clear admiration by my reason but he didn't get the 'Revenge' part.
"Revenge?, Facade?"
He asked.
"Toshinori-san I know that you knew that many if not countless of family have lost someone they love because of some incompetence of hero who would rather let damage escalate to greater level so that the moment they took the 'villain' down they will be praised and their feat would look more impressive in the eye of the media, I have only been here for a short time and I have already saw this. Those mindsets plague the current hero system of this world and it is sickening. Furthermore, some villain commits mass murder and the only punishment they have is simple imprisonment. This is not the justice my grandfather dreamed of, so I want to take that seat of yours and be the one to change this."
"This answer meant no disrespect to you Toshinori-san, you are a great hero but you are only one man you can't change everything and I want to surpass you by first taking your seat and further surpassing you. I want to see a world where justice is true."
"Peace is not given Toshinori-san it is taken and earned. That's what my grandfather would always say."
I knew to myself that our society is bad, I know it not from the manga or anime but by experience, I saw the damages that villain made cause I regularly patrolled the city at night to further improve my skill broaden my horizon and I saw the victims. It's not like the anime or manga these are real people they did suffer many families were broken due to villains not being put down. Because of this societies softness.
Some of them manage to escape prison and came back to its previous victims to exact revenge. Because of this those who have suffered, suffer more and the only punishment they get is imprisonment. So many of them didn't repent because they thought that if they got caught they can still escape and what would they do if they did catch them again, increase their sentence.
Soft or should I say weak these people are weak minded and they are being taken advantage of.
(A/N: Original Yoriichi has a very deep sense of justice so our mc inherited the same, I will also explained why mc thought of this stuff.)
