My Hero Academia One-Shot spoilers opened with a narration as the manga explained that the story was set right after Izuku Midoriya returned to U.A. High School. Japan had become a lawless wasteland amid the intensified battle between heroes and villains as the heroes were training following the fight between Shigaraki Tomura and Star and Stripe.

The heroes were working hard to catch the villains who had broken out of jail and were evacuating civilians. However, no matter how hard they persevered, there was no end in sight. The students could then be seen discussing how they would be splitting up to catch villains more efficiently.

My Hero Academia One-Shot spoilers then saw the students arrive at a new location and say how easy it must be for villains to hide there. All Might then contacted Deku to ask him about their status on capturing villains. Deku said it was going well since everyone was helping.

Right after, All Might informed Deku that he was heading to U.A. High School and the students that he was watching them. Deku asked All Might to have a nice break. Soon after, Tenya Iida suggested that all the students take a break as well. All students agreed except for Katsuki Bakugo who said that he did not need a break and could keep going.

Bakugo called Deku over and said:

"All Might is watching. I will surpass you I…Izuku."

Kirishima still wasn't used to Bakugo calling Deku by his name. Mina and Deku felt the same. Shoto Todoroki felt that it was okay since they were childhood friends. To this, Bakugo responded that they were inseparable.

"In a world like this you can’t be a hero forever!"
