In chapter #306, Endeavor is conducting a press conference in response to allegations put forth by his son, Dabi. During the conference, reporters ask about the One For All power, but denies any knowledge on the subject.

The chapter wraps up with a scene from the U.A. dorms. A narrator explains that Endeavor pretends not to know the identity of One For All so that Deku and All Might would not have targets on their backs.

We see Uraraka reading a letter written by Deku. The letter thanks her for everything, detailing that Deku felt he needed to explain his secret to all students in Class A. He admits he is naturally quirkless and his power was passed down to him from All Might.

Panels reveal that Deku left similar explanation letters under all of his classmates’ doors. The narrator states that if you define a hero as someone willing to suffer in silence, then who’s there for them when they’re in pain?
