Some other fights, such as the one between All Might and All For One, came as a surprise to the fans and have certainly surpassed all expectations. This fight is continuing at the moment and it looks like it is going to reach its conclusion very soon.My Hero Academiachapter 401 is going to focus extensively on the conclusion of this fight.
Stain Joins The Fight
Towards the end of the last chapter,Stain ended up joining this incredible battlebetween All Might and All For One. Fans saw Stain moments before the fight between the Todoroki Family concluded. He was seen near Shoto and, later on, he simply vanished. Fans did know he was headed somewhere and quite a few assumed that he would have something to do with the Todoroki Family. When he did not appear for the next few chapters, a lot of the readers simply forgot about him and instead started focusing on the fight at hand and that was, at the time, Toga versus Ochaco. As soon as that fight wrapped up, attention was moved to All Might vs. All For One and this fight has been absolutely incredible for the readers to witness so far, with exhilarating action and, at the same time, raw emotion packed into it.
Towards the end of the last chapter, Stain ended up making his appearance in this fight and he aided All Might by using his Bloodcurdle ability on All For One. By licking his blood, he completely paralyzed him, leaving him open to an attack from All Might. This is a massive boost for the former Number One Hero as he is going to get a couple of free hits on him. It must also be remembered that All For One has reverted into his child body and defeating him now is going to be much more possible than it was a few chapters ago.

All Might’s Attack
My Hero Academiachapter 401 will almost certainly see All Might launch a powerful attack on All For One. Given that he has now used the vast majority of the Quirks of his students, there are some that are left and these would be Explosion, which belongs to Bakugo, and One For All, which belongs to none other than Deku. These are likely going to be his ultimate weapons in the fight against All For One. Given that he started charging towards All For One in the previous chapter, fans can expect to see him launch one of these attacks. Deku’s One For All will likely be his ultimate attack, so the first one that fans could see him launch is going to be something similar to Howitzer Impact. Fans know this attack to be Bakugo’s special technique and it could very well be unleashed in the next chapter. This would also be one of All Might’s most potent techniques and would do more damage than what fans have seen so far.

My Hero Academiachapter 401 could see the aftermath of this attack being launched on All For One as well. Given that he has been taking damage and rewinding his body further, readers should absolutely expect Explosion to do a lot of damage. This would mean Rewind would take effect even further and reducethe age of All For One even more.He could be seen turning into a toddler in the next chapter and that is certainly an entertaining thought for the fans.
The Fate Of All For One
All For One went into this fight as the strongest in the entirety ofMy Hero Academia.However, now, that isn’t entirely accurate anymore. While he is still very powerful and his abilities are incredible despite him being a kid, he is not as powerful as he was in his prime. For one, his body is going to be much weaker and, at the same time, the degree to which he can control his quirk probably gets affected by this as well. By all means, it appears that All For One cannot win this fight here.
Even if he manages to kill All Might, this would be a lost battle for him as he is no longer in his prime and the time that All Might wasted was precious to him ashe needed to get to Shigaraki.

My Hero Academiachapter 401 might take a bold step and give the fans the fate of All For One. If Bloodcurdle works on him and All Might manages to deal serious damage to him, his body is going to regress even further and from there onwards, his victory would be almost impossible. This implies that his defeat is all but certain and that is precisely what could be tackled inMy Hero Academiachapter 401. In fact, fans could even see him completely dissipate and turn into nothing as the Rewind quirk keeps taking effect.
The Conclusion Of The Fight
At the beginning of this fight, it would have been almost stupid for one to assume that All Might could win against All For One. However, given how he has fought and exploited the weaknesses of his enemy, it can now be said that he stands a fair shot at winning. This is especially true now more than ever, given that All For One has regressed tremendously in terms of his age as well as his powers. To make things even better for All Might, Stain has now joined the battle and aided him greatly.My Hero Academiachapter 401 could very well deliver the conclusion to this incredible fight. If All Might lands a powerful Explosion and then follows it up with a Detroit Smash or a United States of Smash, things should be over for All For One permanently. This time around, he would have no way to return and All Might would be declared as the sole winner of this battle.
Of course, things don’t look great for All Might either. He has taken a tremendous amount of damage and it is possible that he will sustain even more injuries in the next chapter.All Might himself is on death’s doorat the moment, however, it doesn’t look like he will die. That said, it is highly likely that he will be crippled from here onwards in the story as his legs are completely broken and many other joints in his body will also not function properly. Whether Recovery Girl can heal him or not remains to be seen. At the moment, however, readers should expect the conclusion of this fight to be delivered very soon and All Might to be declared as the victor.
