Target 158 A Warm Place
Phew... Basil-kun's sound asleep.
Hey, Tsuna.
Reborn!
Don't scare me like that.
I already told you Basil's asleep because he's tired, so you don't need to worry.
Let him sleep in peace.
I just couldn't help being worried...
He was brought to the future,
and fought against the Millefiore by himself,
to make his way here.
It must've been a terrible ordeal.
Probably.
As a member of the the Vongola outside advisor, CEDEF,
even if he's accustomed to fighting,
he's a novice when it comes to the current battles involving rings and boxes.
Yeah...
I want to talk with Basil-kun when he wakes up.
Come to think of it...
What kind of Box Weapon does Basil-kun have?
Basil's Deathperation Flames are blue, so it'd be Rain-class.
Rain?
So his element is Rain, like Yamamoto's...
You can ask Basil to show you his box when he wakes up.
Anyway, do you even have time to worry about him?
I told you all to get some rest.
Ah, yeah...
That's, uh...
Well, it's only natural for a boss to be worried about his subordinate.
That's not it!
I'm just worried about everyone.
Not just Basil-kun...
We've all been through a lot,
and it's only going to get worse.
That's why you need to replenish your stamina and energy.
I know.
Sheesh, he's the one who's always forcing me to train and study when I'm tired.
Or do you want to start your training before everyone else?
I've got a special regimen lined up.
N-No! I'll rest!
Man, Lambo-san's starving!
Ooh, ooh!
There's something yummy lying here!
Finders keepers, losers weepers!
Lambo, no!
Lambo-chan!
You can't have that!
This is for Chrome-chan.
She didn't touch it, again...
Yeah...
I'm worried.
Do you think Chrome-chan's okay?
If she ain't gonna eat it, why can't I?!
Gimme!
But this was made a while ago...
I know.
It's almost time for a snack. We'll make you something.
Let's go to the kitchen.
A snack?
How about takoyaki? Cake's good too!
Well, let's go see what we should make.
We could do pancakes!
Yeah! Lambo-san wants lots of butter and maple syrup!
Okay, okay.
Pancakes, yay! Pancakes, yay!
Hurry up and make 'em!
Pancakes rule!
I'm glad you love them.
There's plenty left, so have some more.
Oh? Is something wrong, I-Pin-chan?
What's wrong, I-Pin?
I'm worried...
About Chrome-chan?
Yeah...
She hasn't come out since then...
Lambo and I-Pin are having a snack?
Huh?
What's wrong, Kyoko-chan? Haru?
Tsuna-san... Actually...
Huh? Chrome's refusing to eat?
Uh-huh. That's why we're worried.
She's confused by your kindness.
You'll have to approach her slowly.
Right.
But what do we do?
She must be hungry.
This is where you come in, Tsuna.
Huh?! Me?!
Didn't I say that it's the boss's job to understand his subordinates?
B-But...
Tsuna-san!
Huh?
Please! You're the only person we can rely on!
Tsuna-kun...
A-All right...
I'll try talking to her.
Chrome, it's me...
Boss?
Y-Yeah... Do you have a minute?
What is it?
Ah, w-well...
I was wondering how you were doing...
Oh. I'm fine.
G-Good...
What else am I supposed to say?
I said to stop following me around!
Why?
I wanted to go on a walk so I don't lose muscle tone.
Oh.
Boss, is this where you were?
Whatcha doing, Tsuna?
Y-Yeah, um...
Huh?
Ah! Chrome!
Ah...
What's wrong, Tsuna?
This is that girl's room.
Do you have business with her?
Yeah, kind of...
Chrome, come out to eat whenever you feel like it.
Kyoko-chan and the rest of us will be waiting!
And then you came slinking back?
Sorry...
I wasn't any help at all.
Th-That's not true!
You went to see her.
That woman's being disrespectful by ignoring you!
But you have to worry about her health if she isn't eating.
Leave her alone and she'll eat when she's hungry.
Sure hope so...
So are you girls giving up?
No!
I won't give up on trying to become friends with Chrome-chan!
Neither will I!
We'll make more food to take to her.
Right, Haru-chan?
We want her to have a warm meal.
Yeah!
So let's get started!
Kyoko-chan... Haru...
They're both strong...
Women are a lot tougher than men realize.
Huh?
Sis?
Don't forget that.
I see...
So that also applies to Chrome...
Boss?
What's wrong, Tsuna?
Well...
I tried to talk to Chrome, but I realized I don't know anything about her.
Like where she's from, or her relationship with Mukuro and his group.
I don't know a single thing.
Tsuna...
There's no need for you to feel bad, boss.
They may be part of the Guardians now, but they started out as our enemies.
That's true...
But she's going to be fighting on our side now.
There are things I can't tell Kyoko-chan and Haru.
Chrome probably has things she doesn't want to tell us too.
And I can't force her.
Irie-san. Spanner.
Vongola.
Hey!
The boss has come himself!
Gokudera-kun...
Shoichi.
Vongola's here.
Oh, Tsunayoshi-kun.
When did you get here?
Just now.
Sorry I didn't notice you.
Shoichi completely forgets his surroundings
when he gets caught up in something.
So do you, Spanner.
R-Really?
That's some impressive concentration.
Ah, that's right.
Kyoko-chan and Haru made these lunches.
Thanks.
What do you know, I'm actually pretty hungry.
He didn't realize he was hungry?
How hard was he concentrating?
So how is your work going?
It's difficult, but I'll manage somehow.
I do have two skilled mechanics helping out.
I'm simply following Shoichi's instructions.
Shoichi's the amazing one here.
Flattery will get you nowhere.
Oh, a rice ball.
I love Japanese food.
Thanks, Vongola.
Yeah.
Uh, Irie-san...
What is it, Tsunayoshi-kun?
About Mukuro Rokudo...
You have information from the Vindice about Mukuro, right?
E-Excuse me...
Mukuro-sama...
What's happened to Mukuro Rokudo?
According to what Byakuran-san said,
Mukuro had possessed a Millefiore soldier.
Once Byakuran-san noticed, he personally...
But I don't believe him.
Because his name never showed up on
the Vindice Penitentiary's deceased list.
Which means...
He's alive.
That is certain.
Boss!
Tsuna...
I was wondering if you know what Mukuro's doing right now.
Unfortunately, I don't know any more.
The Vindice is a special organization, you see.
It's difficult to obtain information.
And we aren't allowed to interfere.
I see...
Sorry that I can't be of any help.
No, it's okay!
I was expecting as much.
But I was hoping for information to set Chrome's mind at ease.
I'll be sure to let you know if I come across anything else.
Thank you very much.
Still, I was surprised by Mukuro Rokudo.
Huh?
He sneaked into the Millefiore's Italian HQ to steal data,
and faced off with Byakuran-san...
Oh...
So even after ten years, Mukuro's still popping up unexpectedly...
I don't know the reason for Mukuro Rokudo's course of action,
but he was probably trying to help the Vongola in his own way.
Hah, that's not how he is.
But he's on our side.
I won't accept that!
He fought on our side.
I don't know if Mukuro's our ally,
but he does care about Chrome.
So I hope he comes back to her soon.
She didn't touch it again...
"Please feel free to use our clothes." - Kyoko, Haru
This is from Kyoko-chan and Haru.
Thanks, you two.
I hope Chrome warms up to everyone soon.
How are you doing, Ryohei?
Oh, I'm fine now.
I feel like going for an extreme run!
I'm getting sick of sitting around too.
Dumb jocks.
What was that, Octopus head?!
What's wrong with working out?!
Brute strength alone isn't going to help us!
Why don't you use your head, Turf top?!
Y-You guys...
You seem to be having fun, Sawada-dono.
Huh?
Basil-kun, you're awake!
That's great!
Forgive me...
I seem to have slept a good while.
No, it's okay.
But your timing's perfect.
I was about to go wake you up.
Wake me up?
Okay then...
Cheers!
I am honored that you've prepared a party for me.
Don't worry about it, Basil.
They just wanted an excuse to have a feast.
What?!
Th-That's not true!
We're all glad that Basil-kun's here!
Lambo-san wants to party every day!
With tons of food!
Hey! Lambo!
Who cares?
By the way, Tsuna...
Huh?
You didn't invite those two?
Oh, you mean Irie-san and Spanner?
I invited them, but they were still busy.
You don't need to worry about them, boss.
But they're skipping sleep to work for everybody's sake.
Shouldn't you be lending a hand, Giannini?
I-I am providing as much help as I can.
I'm just taking a break right now, is all...
Oh, really?
You're more likely to make mistakes if you work too long.
Th-That's right!
You understand.
Giannini makes plenty of mistakes as it is...
Listen up, y'all!
Huh?
The real stuff is yet to come!
R-Ryohei?
Take down Byakuran! Take down Mille-
What are you doing?
Fool.
We don't mention Byakuran or anything Mafia-related
around the girls or the kids.
O-Oops!
I was talking about a sumo match from ten years ago!
Sasagawa-senpai, you're always so fired up.
Another overblown cover-up...
Phew... They didn't notice...
Something wrong, you two?
N-No...
I-It's nothing.
Sorry! I forgot.
I see.
Still, you made a lot of food.
Yes, since we have more people now.
And everybody seemed so tired,
we wanted to help them build stamina.
But Chrome-chan didn't come.
That's too bad.
She's missing a great party.
Don't worry.
She knows how you feel.
Oh, the lock...
Who is it?
Hello.
You're...
Hot anman are delicious!
Here you go.
For me?
They taste better when you eat with someone else!
It's delicious.
Thank you.
We have to clean up yesterday's mess.
Uh-huh. We used lots of plates, so there will be plenty to wash.
That's right.
I'm glad everyone enjoyed themselves yesterday.
Eek! Someone's there.
Ah, Haru-san! Kyoko-san!
Good morning.
Are you helping clean up?
I-I'm sorry...
Um, I'll try harder to...
Bianchi, what are you doing?
Huh?
I'll put them away.
Thanks.
No problem.
Chrome-chan...
You have bubbles on your face.
Thank you...
Uh-huh.
Everybody's about to wake up,
so we'll need to make breakfast.
I'll help.
Thank you.
You should eat with us, Chrome-chan.
I'll help too!
Please do, I-Pin-chan.
What should we make for breakfast today?
Looks like you don't need to worry anymore.
Well, we have lots of eggs. We could fry them sunnyside-up.
Yeah, I'm glad...
That sounds wonderful!
Ciao-su.
