In chapter 422 of My Hero Academia, titled “Izuku Midoriya Rising,”Deku charged towards All For One with the intention of battling him. Despite AFO’s efforts to halt Deku’s progress, the young hero received assistance from his comrades and fellow heroes, much to the villain’s dismay.

This left AFO perplexed about the distinction between Deku and All Might. Shortly after, AFO came to the realization that the very quality that made Deku appear weak was what set him apart, as his friends were determined to aid him even though they were hurt.

Soon after receiving help from a few more of his friends, Deku continued his journey and eventually landed a punch on AFO in the manga.

Despite fans’ recollection of All Might using the remaining embers of his quirk to fight AFO, he ultimately lost his quirk after the battle. Therefore, considering Deku’s weakened state following his fight against Shigaraki Tomura, his confrontation with AFO may become a race against time.
