Target 83 Information Divulged
Huh, I don't need any lightning-class rings.
What have you been up to, Tsunayoshi Sawada?
Hibari-san!
Uh...
Takeshi Yamamoto and Hayato Gokudera are inside the forest.
What?
Gokudera-kun! Yamamoto!
It's fine. Their injuries aren't life-threatening.
Y-You're the former Vice-chairman of the Disciplinary Committee!
Tetsuya Kusakabe.
One of Hibari's men.
Anyway, they need immediate treatment.
Let's move them to the base.
They're both...
Unbelievable...
He was able to defeat Gamma without using a Vongola Ring.
Wait.
We have injured men here.
It's too dangerous to move while carrying them.
There's a high probability that the enemy will attack us again,
and the location of the base may be exposed.
You don't need to worry about that.
Use our entrance.
"Our entrance"?
What's that sound?
H-He disappeared!
A hidden door?
Camouflaged by a Mist Ring, huh?
But if we were to leave now, one problem remains.
The Rain and Storm Vongola Rings.
They can probably be detected on the enemy's radar.
We cannot allow their signal to disappear here.
Understood.
I'll take that job.
The two unidentified rings are still on the move.
We've lost the signal from one them, however.
This is...
Three kilometers from the shrine.
The remaining ring is moving toward the Akagawa District.
How's our squad doing?
It will take another five minutes for them to reach their destination.
The signal from the other ring has been lost.
Our squad isn't there yet?!
Perhaps we should lift the 3rd squad's suspension and ask for their assistance...
No!
They defied an order from me, their superior!
Pull them back!
That's an order!
You're in a foul mood, huh?
Long time no see, Sho-chan.
It's finally begun...
Indeed.
But it seems we're off to a bad start.
Black Spell has apparently engaged them in combat.
That's not how the plan should go.
Didn't I tell you?
The second they showed up, you should immediately-
I am!
That's what I've been doing!
Always with the snapping, Sho-chan.
This'll lead to more arguing,
but we need to be ready to talk to Black Spell.
What explanation do we give them?
Explanation? That's simple.
Tell them the truth:
that a gift has arrived from the past.
But...
Once a clock is set in motion, it can't be stopped.
You should hurry with your work, Sho-chan.
I'll move ahead with the next plan.
Kurokawa
This Lal Mirch person is here for you.
I'll be going then.
Hold on, Kyoko.
Take this with you.
I had my parents buy these.
This is...
Do you guys have a change of clothes with you?
Huh?
I figured,
since you're surrounded by men who're clueless about that stuff.
Here's some snacks for those kids too.
She did all this...
Drop by whenever you want.
When you're a hundred-year-old granny,
or even if you get turned into an ant,
you can come to me.
Your best friend will be right here.
Hana...
Hurry.
Sorry to keep you waiting.
Let's go.
Yeah.
Shall I carry both of them?
I-I'm fine.
Anyway, where are we?
One of our research facilities in Japan.
Research?
It's used for a number of other functions as well.
Look over there.
Huh?
Ciao-su.
Reborn!
Why is Reborn here?
Our facility is connected to your base.
Although, this door had never been opened before, because of an inviolability clause.
The kind of system you'd expect from a crowd-hater like Hibari.
Medical Room #2
How's Gokudera-kun doing?
He hasn't woken up yet.
But I'd say this worked out pretty well.
What? How do you figure?!
Why not?
If we're going to survive this battle with the Millefiore,
each one of you is going to have to get stronger.
Besides, something good always happens after a big crisis.
Hey now!
Everybody's injured!
How can you say that?
Boss...
I'm sorry.
Gokudera-kun.
I'm sorry, boss...
Huh?
It's all my fault...
To tell you the truth...
I was really scared after coming to this world.
I lost my temper and took it out on Yamamoto.
Which was why...
Gokudera-kun...
That's what Yamamoto said,
just a bit ago.
Medical Room #1
I was so frustrated...
I ended up saying things to Gokudera I shouldn't have.
I need to apologize.
Yeah?
Then Yamamoto's...
He's alive and doing pretty well.
Bah... He survived.
Nothing's changed!
I was so focused on myself that I never noticed
how stressed everyone is.
Of course.
Since Kyoko, Gokudera, and Yamamoto are still wet behind the ears.
What?
Stop reading my mind!
You're all inexperienced and unstable.
You're quick to lose your heads, and screw up big.
I-Isn't that a little harsh?
But that's fine for now.
Your greatest weapon is how you become stronger through every screwup.
Reborn...
And you're one to talk when you're just a baby!
Say...
Are you done yet?
We need to talk.
Hibari-san!
Hibari!
Why are you here?
Gokudera-kun.
Hibari-san saved you two.
What?!
I didn't mean to save you.
I just happened to despise that man.
I missed you, Hibari.
Same here, baby.
What do we need to talk about, Hibari-san?
Excuse me...
Could I have a moment?
What is it?
I have good news.
Bianchi-san and Futa-san have returned from gathering information.
Futa?!
Sis?!
Like I said,
something good always happens after a big crisis.
Haru-chan.
Kyoko-chan!
I'm so glad you're okay!
I was so worried!
What if you had been caught by some dangerous and scary people?
I'm sorry, Haru-chan.
We're glad you're okay.
Where did you go off to?
Take me with you if you're gonna go play!
I knew you'd be okay, though, because Tsuna-san went to look for you.
Uh-huh. It's all because Tsuna-kun came for me.
What's that?
Snacks for Lambo-kun and I-Pin-chan.
Yay! Snacks for Lambo-san!
No fair! Don't hog them all!
I'm gonna eat them all!
Wait, Lambo!
You can't!
If you eat that many snacks, you won't have any room for dinner!
No way!
Come here!
Punish Lambo!
Um, thank you so much...
Thank you very much.
Reborn!
I'll never let you go again, my beloved!
Ten years hasn't changed Bianchi's appearance, but she's gotten even more intense?
She can't help herself, Big Tsuna.
Huh?
Since both of you are dead in this time.
A-Are you...
Futa?!
All right! I'm taller than Big Tsuna.
You grew like crazy!
Gokudera-kun!
Because he saw Bianchi, huh?
There's hope, Tsuna.
Huh?
Bianchi and Futa returned with new information.
I see.
If we pool everybody's information,
we might have a better idea of how to return to the past.
Hibari-san probably knows something.
If this crowd gets any bigger, I'll bite you to death.
Huh?!
Everybody's here, right?
Then I'll serve in Hibari's stead.
He ended up biting me anyway...
And he still left...
That's enough. I'm leaving.
Hibari-san hasn't changed at all...
But I guess that's fine if we can get the information from Kusakabe-san.
I'll start with Hibird.
We launched it at Hana Kurokawa's request.
Huh? Hana Kurokawa?
That's right.
A request from Kurokawa to provide assistance to Kyoko Sasagawa.
This was part of our agreement with the Vongola.
When an SOS was sent through a certain channel,
Hibird would be sent to the scene.
Why would you use such a strange method?
It's a backup system for requesting help.
Exactly.
It would serve as a backup SOS call in the event of trouble with normal channels.
But why did the SOS signal disappear at the shrine?
I'm embarrassed to say that the battery wasn't properly connected.
So it was an accident.
You keep throwing "we" around, but what organization do you belong to?
Oh, right.
You have a secret facility that's connected to the Vongola base...
To put it simply,
we are a secret underground foundation that splintered off from
the Namimori Middle School Disciplinary Committee.
You're still involved with the Disciplinary Committee?!
Big Tsuna told me about that.
Huh?
Ah, the adult Big Tsuna.
Hibari-san used that foundation
to research and investigate boxes from all over the world.
Boxes?
You'll need to hear the rest from Hibari himself.
He'll be staying here for the time being.
Really?
Yes.
It's reassuring to have Hibari-san around.
That's all I have to say.
It must have been rough, Tsuna.
Huh?
Reborn told us everything.
We'll do what we can to help you return to the past.
At this point, we share a number of objectives.
I believe we will be able to offer our assistance.
R-Really?
If you wish to return to the past, you must defeat Shoichi Irie of the Millefiore.
R-Right.
The Millefiore are my enemy.
I wouldn't hesitate to destroy them.
And if you go back ten years and change the past,
the future may no longer be one where I lose so many loved ones and friends...
Bianchi...
Our investigation should be of use.
We've been gathering information about the Millefiore in Japan.
There are seventeen Millefiore squads,
but only six captains are ranked A or above.
And Japan is being handled by two of them.
Gamma and Shoichi Irie, right?
Yes, Shoichi Irie has returned to the Japan branch.
What? Really?
Which means the target's in our backyard.
I was expecting him to be farther away.
I'm nervous now...
That isn't the only good news we have.
We've found the entrance to the enemy's Japan base.
The entrance to the enemy base?!
Is that true?
You can't see the forest for the trees.
It's also below Namimori.
The shopping mall below Namimori Station.
You'll find Shoichi Irie there.
Huh?
There's something under the station?
Ah...
Tsuna-san, did you hear they're making an underground shopping center here?
They're even doing an event and it ends today!
Right... Haru mentioned it once...
This information is significant.
Huh?
We can go on the offensive now.
O-Offensive?!
B-But everybody's injured...
Yeah, it won't work in our current state.
After the battle with Gamma,
you should've learned that the Millefiore are to be feared.
If Shoichi Irie is a captain like Gamma, he won't be easy to defeat.
Besides, we should assume that the enemy has noticed your arrival from ten years ago.
The enemy's in a frenzy to find this base and hunt down you Vongola.
We didn't find anyone, except the severely injured Captain Gamma.
They got away, huh?
Master Irie.
We'll find them soon enough...
Our chances of surviving this situation and defeating Shoichi Irie
depend on how strong you can become in this short amount of time.
How strong we can become in a short amount of time?
We'll gather information on the Guardians,
so you should focus on your training.
You can count on us.
Now that I'm here,
I'll take care of the housework as well as Kyoko and the others.
Guys...
Thank you.
That's what I'll do.
Lambo! No eating everybody else!
Why not?! Lambo-san's hungry!
That smells good.
Big Kyoko. Big Haru.
And Lambo and I-Pin.
Bianchi-san.
Futa?
Oh?
I'm glad you're okay.
Bianchi-san!
You're small now.
I'm doing great!
Where is everyone?
Dinner's almost ready.
That's right!
We should celebrate our safe reunion!
Tsuna and the others said they're still busy.
Really?
Hana-chan went to the trouble of getting us a change of clothes?
Haru & Kyoko & I-Pin-chan No boys allowed!!
Yeah.
She gave me a whole bunch.
This is for I-Pin-chan.
I'm so happy!
And I'm so touched!
What did I get?
Pleasure Boat
Hana-chan has the wrong idea about me...
I wonder what Tsuna-kun and everybody else are doing.

We have no choice but to do this. No choice.
