We returned to the past and
began clearing the Arcobaleno Trials
so I will be able to use Sky Boxes.
Only the bird?
Where's Colonnello?
Over here, maggot!
Colonnello...
Too bad, maggot.
You sure about that?
Gauge Symmetry.
Standby for launch.
I won't let you, maggot!
X BURNER!
Maximum Burst!
Damn it!
Gauge Symmetry.
Standby for launch.
X BURNER: Air!
Stop.
Wow.
Tsuna's right.
We have allies to watch our backs!
How can we not win?!
That's why I hate you people.
Now then...
Which one is real?
It doesn't matter.
Th-This could be dangerous...
Gauge Symmetry.
Standby for launch.
X BURNER: Air!
You did it, Tsuna.
They've joined together, Senpai!
Yeah! That's what we've been waiting for!
Scontro di Rondine!
Maximum Cannon!
I-Pin, haven't seen you in a while.
Master, I'm sorry.
Gyoza Kempo!
Peeyew!
Sorry, Lambo!
Gyoza Kempo!
Yes, that's how it should be.
Yes!
Come here a second.
Sorry. I almost forgot something important.
Something important?
You've cleared the trial of tolerance.
Tolerance?
You listened to any request I made,
and protected me when you didn't know if I was an enemy.
Your generous heart is very tolerant.
Just like the sky that covers all.
I didn't do anything so noble...
Never lose that heart.
We've cleared five of the seven trials.
Two left to go...
But one of them is with...
Tsuna, your next trial is with me.
Huh?
Target 149 Reborn's Trial
With Reborn?
There's no reason to be surprised.
I'm up next.
B-But...
Bring all of the Guardians here.
That includes Lambo.
I'll be waiting on Namimori Island.
Ah! Reborn!
What? You didn't leave yet?
I wish to see these trials through to the end in my mother's stead.
I see.
It's finally your turn.
Yeah.
You won't be holding back?
That's what makes it a trial.
Come to think of it...
Your mother made me realize that
my sideburns were my most attractive features.
I'm amazed by how Lambo can sleep through this.
Well, I guess it's pretty late.
Man...
He has no sense of urgency.
Stupidera!
Gimme a massage!
Even Lambo was forced to come...
Thanks for coming, Chrome.
So was Hibari-san...
I've always wanted a real fight with the baby.
Yeah, he'll make a fine opponent.
What do I do?
How can I fight with Reborn?
So, what will Reborn-san's trial be?
Good question!
It won't necessarily be a battle.
We're talking about Reborn here...
He might make us perform parlor tricks.
Hope so.
I trained with him in the future,
so I know from experience.
If we end up in an all-out fight with the kid...
I highly doubt we'd win.
Yamamoto...
Reborn-san would never go all-out against the boss.
We're probably getting worked up over nothing.
Gokudera-kun...
Namimori Island is a crazy place...
Fitting for a decisive battle.
Watch your step, boss!
The sun's coming up.
They're here, maggot!
You okay, boss?!
It's just a starfish.
I thought it was a Box Weapon...
Like what we ran into the other day?
I'm getting all nervous because we're up against Reborn.
I should take a deep breath...
I'm starting the trial.
W-Without any warning?!
R-Reborn...
All of the Guardians will be participating in my trial.
Hold on, Reborn!
Lambo doesn't need to be here...
You're too soft.
The trials aren't a game, maggot!
Wh-What's your trial?
The sixth Arcobaleno Trial
will test Tsunayoshi Sawada's leadership ability,
to see if he's cut out to be a boss.
Leadership ability?
He obviously is!
I mean, Vongola IX chose him as the official successor.
You sure about that?
B-But how are you going to test leadership?
An all-out battle with me.
Huh?!
With Reborn-san...
An all-out battle?!
Thought so.
We're really going to fight with Reborn?!
I can't do that!
That's why I say you're still too soft.
Boss!
Tsuna!
S-Sawada!
Boss...
What with the sudden attack?!
I said that I'm starting the trial.
Exactly.
The trial has already begun.
Any one of you can attack me.
In that case...
Hibari!
Don't interfere.
Wow...
I haven't seen jitte in a long time.
Note: Jitte or Jutte are weapons utilized by law enforcement officials in Japan during the Edo period. Similar to billy clubs.
However...
Wh-What was that bullet?!
Hibari!
A-Amazing...
That's Reborn-san's true strength...
It's way beyond what I saw when he was training me...
Okay!
It's my turn to take you!
He's dodging every blow...
Is that it?
It's not even a warm-up.
Attack me all at once.
It's my duty as the boss's right-hand man to step up here.
I won't hold back, not even on Reborn-san!
Please sleep here quietly.
Can't eat another bite...
Come on.
You can attack me from anywhere.
Here I come!
Maximum Cannon!
Now it's my turn.
Th-The bullet split in two!
You're next.
H-His punches sting...
My hands are numb from guarding...
You've left yourself wide open down low.
Playtime's over.
Turf top!
S-Senpai...
Don't worry.
I didn't fracture his chin.
What?!
R-Reborn-san...
If I take too long, he'll know my move.
I have to settle this with one blow!
First...
Storm + Sun!
I was expecting that!
Storm + Lightning!
Flame Thunder!
Gokudera!
I-I'm sorry, b-boss...
What's wrong, Yamamoto?
You done already?
I can't find an opening...
But I can't win if I just wait!
Shigure Soen Ryu...
Stance 8:
Pouring Rain!
And...
Stance 9:
Reflecting Rain!
Impressive stuff.
Yeah, I haven't seen Reborn this serious in a long time.
I first met Reborn when the chosen seven, I'prescelta Sette,
were assembled for a job.
We barely knew each other at the time,
so we were all wary of one another.
Um...
My name is Luche.
I made some cookies.
Here you are.
I never eat anything given to me by someone else.
Here you are.
The two of you should also take some.
Thank you.
Would you like some?
I have no interest in anything sweet.
Really?
How about some coffee, then?
I made some delicious espresso.
You don't seem to understand.
What I'm trying to say is...
If you don't trust me, shall I drink some first,
paranoid hitman-san?
I get it.
Huh?
I'll have some.
I happen to love espresso.
They're lovely.
Your curly sideburns are adorable.
Even then, Reborn was far stronger than the rest of the seven.
Yamamoto has no chance of winning.
Good job dodging that.
Your training with me is paying off.
You sound confident, kid.
It's on!
Stance 10:
Scontro di Rondine!
Ya-Yamamoto?
Tsuna...
Yamamoto!
G-Gokudera-kun!
And Chrome...
Ryohei!
Even Hibari-san...
You're the only one left, Tsuna.
N-No way...
Lambo's the only one in good shape...
Everybody's beaten up!
Aren't you their boss?
You're supposed to do something about this.
B-But I can't fight you...
You're still going on about that?
The world's done for if you don't clear this trial.
Don't you care about what happens to Kyoko, Haru, and your mother?
No way...
I can't let that happen!
You're finally getting serious?
Don't forget, Tsuna.
You can never run away from a trial...
Never.
After that fateful day,
we were transformed into babies, cursed to protect
these pacifiers for an eternity,
as Arcobaleno.
None of us could readily accept
the situation that had befallen us.
Except for Luche, who'd known this would happen all along.
After a long period of exile, I resolved to accept this body.
I then asked Shamal to erase my past
and became the Reborn I am now.
Boss...
S-Sawada...
B-Boss!
He did it!
That's our boss!
Operation...
X.
Roger that, boss.
Commencing firing sequence for X BURNER.
H-He's going to use X BURNER on Reborn-san...
Target locked.
Flame pressure in right burner rising.
200,000 FV.
Flame pressure in left burner rising.
180,000...
190,000...
200,000 FV.
Gauge Symmetry.
Standby for launch!
Reborn...
I can't do it!
Tsuna...
Boss...
He missed his best chance.
Yeah, and it was the only chance Reborn was going to give him.
What? That was on purpose?
You're too soft.
Your comrades are all beaten up from fighting,
and you still insist on being safe?
Do you understand what it means to carry the Vongola Rings?
You lack the resolve to fight for your comrades, for this world!
Chaos Shot!
Boss!
Tsuna!
Sawada!
I can't pass a person who isn't fit to be boss.
Next Episode
Tsuna and his teammates are recovering from our fierce battle
while wallowing in the despair of failing the trial.
However, Verde's trial is yet to come.
He sent his underlings to attack Tsuna during Aria's trial.
He's an unpredictable, suspicious character that must be given special attention.
Next time:
Closed Path.
Watch like your life depends on it.
See you next time!
