The Choice battle between Tsuna's team
and the real six Funeral Wreaths has begun.
The targets are Daisy and Shoichi Irie.
The side whose target marker is extinguished first will lose.
Let's do this, Na-Tsu.
Na-Tsu.
Cambio Forma Modo Difesa.
Thank you, Na-Tsu.
Now it's my turn.
Pitiful one...
That'd be you.
Don't need to hold back...
against a monster.
One of the real six Funeral Wreaths, Torikabuto, was defeated by Tsuna.
Rainy Metamorphosis!
Rainy Metamorphosis
Curse you, impudent fool!
Takeshi Yamamoto!
Where have you run off to?!
My own sword attacks are getting in the way!
I don't have enough power after splitting up!
Where are you, Takeshi Yamamoto?!
It's true that I lost to you once before...
But that was because of my inexperience.
My old man's Shigure Soen Ryu
has always been perfect and its power is second to none!
Attacking from the front?
Fool.
Fast!
No, that's not it.
He isn't fast!
My movements have become slow!
Curses! Rain flames from my swings have latched onto me!
Shigure Soen Ryu.
Offensive stance 8.
Yamamoto also won his rematch with the Phantom Knight.
Pouring Rain
However, the Phantom Knight was...
L-Lord Byakuran would never abandon me!
Kikyo! You tricked me!
Listen to what he's saying.
He always jumps to conclusions.
Phanny's done an excellent job.
Considering his simple mind...
But I've lost interest, so he gets dropped.
I stand with Lord Byakuran!
Phantom Knight!
This is the true nature of our enemy, the Millefiore...
Of Byakuran-san!
Let's win.
The stuff about saving the world and 7³ Policy didn't affect me personally,
but it's clear that Byakuran's doing terrible things to everyone!
Okay, let's rush them!
We win if we defeat their target first!
At the moment, it's five versus two, us.
Numerically speaking, we can defeat their target
2-to-1 much faster than they can defeat our target 1-to-3.
And the enemy attacker, Kikyo, is still distracted by the decoys
and unaware of my position.
This is...
A perfect chance.
Gokudera-kun should remain on defense!
Tsunayoshi-kun and Yamamoto-kun should
head straight for the target through the air!
Yeah!
Th-This is bad!
We can't afford to lose this Choice battle, Tsuna.
Attack them with one final push!
Target 172 Kikyo's Assault
Here, Dino-san.
Oh, thank you...
How does it look?
Yeah, we're on the offensive!
Go! Go!
Chance for a knockout! Hit him with one final mega-blow!
Extreme rush, rush!
Tsuna-kun, Yamamoto-kun, do your best.
Please win!
From here,
you no longer need to ride the stealth bikes and hide from the radar.
Tsunayoshi-kun and Yamamoto-kun should follow
the navigation system in your contacts and head towards the target.
Roger that!
Another decoy pretending to be Irie's target marker.
It appears that there are many more left.
Kikyo...
I've got enemies coming my way.
This is bad!
I'm in check, aren't I?
O-ho? You don't get it, Daisy.
Huh?
This Choice battle is a ceremony to crown Lord Byakuran as king of the new world.
Lord Byakuran is sick of flawless victories.
We are simply producing a pretend dire situation to entertain him.
Of course, Lord Byakuran probably knows exactly what I'm thinking.
It's finally showtime, Lord Byakuran.
Something's wrong...
What is it, Spanner?
The Vongola is heading away from the target.
Huh?
You're right.
Tsunayoshi-kun, what's wrong?
You're veering off course.
That can't be right.
I'm following the navigation system.
This is...
I feel like I've been going around in circles.
Wha-?!
Th-The contact broke down now of all times?
That must be it.
I can see the Millefiore base unit.
Is it okay for me to attack?
Hold on, Yamamoto-kun.
Something's wrong with Tsunayoshi-kun's contact.
We're sending him new data to repair it, so standby for now.
Okay.
Did something happen?
I hope it's nothing.
As expected, it won't be so simple to win this game.
Shoichi, check the radar!
Our decoys are being destroyed at an incredible rate.
Only six are left.
What did you say?!
It must be that Kikyo man's doing!
Fast...
At this rate, he'll find us in no time!
Why now?
I have a bad feeling about this.
We need to hurry!
Yamamoto-kun!
Commence your attack on the target after all!
We'll send Tsunayoshi-kun there soon!
Okay!
Here I go!
Another one taken out...
Only three decoys left...
O-ho.
Kikyo is less than two kilometers away from here!
Gokudera-kun, can you hear me?
Kikyo has advanced past our line of defense and he's getting closer!
Yeah.
I can faintly see explosions.
We simply need to defeat their target before they defeat ours.
Try to hold him off until Yamamoto and Tsuna take out the target!
I don't need you to tell me that.
Before he can get one step past me...
I'll defeat him for sure.
Gokudera-kun, can you hear me?
Kikyo has advanced past our line of defense and he's getting closer!
Yeah.
I can faintly see explosions.
We simply need to defeat their target before they defeat ours.
Try to hold him off until Yamamoto and Tsuna take out the target!
I don't need you to tell me that.
Before he can get one step past me...
I'll defeat him for sure.
This is not good for the heart.
So Tsuna-kun and everyone were always doing such incredible things...
Now I can understand why Tsuna-kun didn't want to tell me or Haru-chan.
They've always been working as hard as they can.
As they are now, and will continue to do so.
Damn it!
Watching and not being able to do anything is so frustrating!
Calm down, Ryohei.
We all feel that way.
O-ho!
He's fast!
O-ho!
Uri!
Don't look away!
Hayato!
Bastard!
Yeah!
Nice one, Octopus head!
Uri!
You did well to hang in there!
Great work, Uri!
Ow!
It bit him!
That may be Uri's way of expressing affection.
H-How complex.
I won't let you pass.
That may be your intention,
but I will head for the target, Shoichi Irie.
Don't underestimate me!
Or my five waves...
Or my new SISTEMA C.A.I.!
What the hell?!
Something's keeping his boxes shut!
He won't be able to open them!
Gokudera's Vongola Boxes are an extension of SISTEMA C.A.I.
His Vongola Boxes are as good as sealed.
O-ho.
Excuse me.
Ah, bastard! You're gonna run?!
It would be a waste of time.
You aren't the target.
He ran off without fighting!
Since the target is Irie.
Damn it! He got past me!
Sorry, Irie.
Roger that.
But I'm sure it'll be fine.
We just finished
fixing Tsunayoshi-kun's navigation system.
Damn it!
Forgive me, boss!
Now the Vongola and Yamamoto can both attack the target.
They can defeat the target before Kikyo makes it here.
No.
Is that Tsunayoshi-kun?
The navigation system isn't broken.
Wh-What was that?!
What do you mean, boss?
What did you just say, Tsunayoshi-kun?
The navigation system isn't malfunctioning?
Something's wrong.
What is this odd sensation?
Shoichi!
What's wrong?
I'm getting an abnormal flame reading in the 1.5 km radius
around the Vongola!
What is this distortion?
Pitiful one...
That guy...
Tsunayoshi-kun! What's happening?!
Give us your situation!
It's Torikabuto.
Huh?
I didn't defeat him yet!
I'm probably...
caught in his illusion right now.
Torikabuto's?!
This is bad. He needs to get out of there,
or we'll lose the two-to-one advantage.
Stop wasting time and take out the target!
He's here!
This should finish it!
A barrier?
Huh? Kikyo?
O-ho.
It's the only emergency device on our simplistic base unit.
A barrier which responds to charged flame energy.
It should be able to hold even the swordsman who
defeated the Phantom Knight for two minutes.
It's so hard!
And two minutes
is more than enough time to defeat Shoichi Irie.
Yamamoto has been impeded by an enemy barrier just before reaching the target.
This won't be a straightforward match after all.
But Yamamoto-kun reached the enemy target before Kikyo got here.
I'm sure he'll defeat his target first.
Kikyo's approaching!
Distance: 600!
How many of the interceptor laser traps have been installed?
83% installed and ready.
Laser trap system has acquired the target.
Okay! Fire the lasers!
A direct hit by the lasers!
Output at 98%!
Come on...
O-ho, you expected that to work?
Interceptor laser traps wiped out.
He's coming!
We need to buy as much time as we can!
Shift the base to mobile mode!
Deploy the continuous track vehicle.
Got it.
How's the Vongola base?
What's going on over there?
Is that you, Tsunayoshi-kun?
Yeah.
Kikyo will soon be right before our eyes.
He's destroyed the last of our traps. Our only option is to retreat.
What?
How are things over there?
Not good.
I tried breaking out of this space at a super-fast speed,
but I've been unable to escape, and Torikabuto hasn't shown himself.
I'm assuming that his goal is to delay me.
I won't be able to reach the target at this rate.
Damn it!
So the Millefiore's strategy was superior?!
Kikyo's approaching.
Distance: 300!
O-ho.
Ciao-su.

Next Episode
This looks bad.
Will Yamamoto break through the barrier first,
or will Kikyo corner Shoichi first?
This has turned into a battle against the clock.
And Tsuna hasn't found a way out of that illusionary space.
Shoichi is desperately making use of the base unit's facilities to resist,
but Kikyo is drawing near.
Next time on Reborn:
Choice Ends.
Watch like your life depends on it.
See you next time!
