Chapter 13

NAMIMORI MANSION JAPAN

Hana Kurokawa was flabbergasted on what she had missed in her best friend's life. The sufferings she had been through, the pain she had felt, and other unpleasant things.

Without her knowing, tears decanted down from her eyes.

She thought of all the times Kyoko would vanish or decline to hang out, she would smile then apologized and hastily flied. She suspected but she never mind since Kyoko would always smile and insure her there was nothing wrong.

She always thought that they were doing something confidential but she never thought it would be this dangerous!

The one she had known from childhood.

For her, Ryohie had always been so simple-minded and his life only revolves from his family, Kyoko, and boxing. Al of a sudden, Ryohie had found some he would follow. She would never expect him to do so much, to endure so much, to suffer so much for a person. And that person did the same.

Her classmates.

As for her three classmates, she never understood the foundation of their friendship, it erupted from nowhere, but they always stand together.

The two popular monkeys in her classroom, she had not found them as a bother even with their quirks and overflowing loyalty to Sawada, they were normal, or so she though.

Hayato Gokudera, a transferee from Italy, labeled to be a delinquent, was from a Mafioso family and is Mafioso himself.

Takeshi Yamamoto, the baseball ace player, was not the air-head everyone knows he was. He was training to be a Mafioso, holding a lot of potential for the said field.

And the most unexpected one, Tsunayoshi Sawada, a No-Good kid since kindergarten, expect to have future because of his past record. No one would expect him to be the heir of a famiglia that had existed for four hundred years, much less the power and influence he had just with his name.

She was not only unaware of her best friend's life but also her other friends' lives. She had always been suspecting on what her friends been up to behind her back but she never ask, since every time they come back they would give an excuse and would not entertain her questions. They shrugged it off or change the topic. She was okay with it, and did not force them to answer.

She stood along them, not knowing of the danger they had faced.

"Kyoko…" tears were flowing from Hana's eyes, she could not help it. She was not there when Kyoko needed her the most. "I'm sorry… I wasn't there… "

"Hana-chan… It's fine." Kyoko went to hug Hana, "I'm sorry for keeping you in the dark. I should have told you."

"Kyoko." Hana seized on Kyoko tighter afraid of losing her.

Haru looked at the best friend duo and sigh. They did not tell her the secrets of the boss and his guardians since some stories are not for them to tell. If those people wanted Hana to know, they would tell Hana. 'After all those explaining, Hana-san took it better than we did. She's really mature.' She looked outside the window, the only window of the room. 'I hope everyone's okay. The noises outside had already stopped. Bianchi-nee, Lambo, I-pin, please be alright. Please protect everyone, Tsuna-san. '

~VONGOLA HQ PERIMETER

Tsuna looked around the courtyard and saw how many guards there were. He gave a look of disbelief, and shook his head. '… having guards up until here, they really planned everything huh…'

The men were everywhere. The moment he went in the courtyard he would be discover. No backing down. Nono and the famiglia need him. He could no longer endanger them further.

Tsuna made a move to the courtyard…

But before he could move, the main door open and a body were thrown out into the brick cover patio.

Tsuna took a good look of the person thrown and recognized it with ease. It was Ganauche III, Nono's Lighting Guardian. He looked so battered up.

One man suddenly step on Ganauche stomach.

Then at the moment Tsuna decided to activate his flames, thus entering Hyper Dying-Will Mode.

Using his flames, Tsuna jumped into the air that made the leaves rustles. The noise got the attention of the Mafiosi. Taking advantage of the diversion of focus, Tsuna charged to the Mafiosi opposite his previous location, knocking eighteen men in an instant, before hiding in shadows again.

"Oi!What happened?!" A man shouted.

Another group of Mafiosi neared the fallen men. "They've been knocked out!"

"Who is there?! Show yourselves!" Another man gave an annoying shout.

Another gush of strong wind and another set of men have been knocked out in cold. Then . Without creating much noises, except from the loud curses and shouts.

The sequence may be random to some, but Tsuna is attacked the group of men his intuition was telling that would condemn, and fire bullets.

Throughout the time, Tsuna, rapidly and carefully, abrogated most of the men outside and avoid his identity to be known.

And it didn't last long before only fourteen men were left.

"Oi, Called someone from inside." The man stepping on Ganauche ordered.

The man followed the order but before he made the call, he was already knocked unconsciously. And so were the remaining men.

Extinguishing his flames, Tsuna approached the barely conscious Ganauche III and crouched beside him. "Ganauche-san?" Tsuna whispered.

When no response was heard, Tsuna gave Ganauche a little shake, stirring him a bit. "Mmmm…"

Ganauche slowly opened his eyes and blink. Why is this person here? "Decimo…"

"Ganauche-san, are you alright? Where are Grandpa and the others?" Tsuna inquired. Ganauche's injuries were mostly bruises and cuts, it seems like he was tortured.

"Decimo… They got Nono and the others confined in the conference room." Ganauche coughed out blood. After brushing off the blood that had escaped his mouth with his bruised hands, Ganauche started to stand up from the ground.

"Please find a hiding place to rest." Tsuna was confronted by a disagreeing face of Ganauche. "Let me handle this, Ganauche-san. I am the cause of it."

"No-" '-you are not.' Ganauche was unable to voice out the rest as Tsuna continued.

"This is Grandpa's famiglia and my own. Let me protect it."

To say Ganauche was astonished was an understatement. 'This boy had grown too fast. Not physically but mentally.' Giving up on stopping Tsuna, Ganauche instead he whispered, "Take care."

Giving a nod to the Lightning Guardian, Tsuna headed inside the mansion, while contacting Spanner asking for everyone's condition.

_...oooooo00000OOOOXOOOO00000oooooo…._

GIGLIO NERO

Ryohie was fighting with the men of whatever famiglia that was attacking the Giglio Nero while searching for the members of the targeted famiglia.

Bodies of bruised men were already scattering all over the place but Ryohie cannot find any familiar face of the Giglio Nero famiglia he had encountered in the future. Nozaru, Tazaru, Gamma, or even Uni were all out of sight. Not even any signs of them. 'Did they manage to escape before the attack?'Ryohie wondered.

Rustle

Ryohie turned at the sound. Ruins. Small particle of the broken wall had fallen off. Men appeared out of nowhere, surrounding Ryohie from all sides.

"Well, well, well, we never expect someone would be able to interrupt our operation." A man from the attacking famiglia.

"You maybe strong but you are alone." Another man said, "Against over guns your super strength is nothing."

"Alone?" Ryohie repeated the man's words. "You think I'm alone?"

"You speak as if there's another person here!" The man shouted angrily. 'Damn kid.' He pointed his gun to Ryohie. Signaling the others to do the same and they did. "You already injured many of us by your ability. We're taking you down as precaution."

"I was right when I thought they weren't Giglio Nero members." Ryohie said loudly.

"You attacked without knowing!" the man shouted. "… needlessly… you're dying here!"

Ryohie stood there, unfazed of the treat. If it weren't for his training those two years he would have been running into the fight without thinking. Master Paopao had once told him, it was both his strength and weakness. But right now, he needed to use his head.

Rustle

Out of the corner of his eves, Ryohie saw a man's shadowed figure of a man hiding behind the ruins. The figure was sneaking in the commotion Ryohie had caused. Another followed.

'Could it be the Giglio Nero?' Ryohie wondered. 'Just in case…'

"Which?" Ryohie asked, confusing the men surrounding him. "… which Famiglia are you part of?"

"Hmm… Are you an Idiot?!" another man shouted, 'Is this teen really dumb? Charging into the battlefield alone? Now, he doesn't even know who his fighting against was!This was absurd! He doesn't even look like Italian!'

"Idiot… We're from the Tenebre Famiglia." A man said proudly. Expecting the teen to be frighten but Ryohei was unaffected by the revelation. "We serve under the Tenebre Quarto, Borelli Tenebre."

"Tenebre Famiglia… Borelli… Tenebre… " Ryohie lowered his head, remembering what Spanner said about that person. 'That man…'

"He's supposed to be neutral. My guess is that he was blinded by what he will achieve in this plan." Spanner said while they were discussing the plan. "He supposed to be bright man but he made a bad move betraying this famiglia though."

"Hmm… " Ryohie hummed, "I guess, we're enemies… " he placed his fisted-bandaged hands in front, "You betrayed Vongola."

"Hahaha! Vongola is no more!" laughter erupted from some men mouth.

"Kangaryuu!" Ryohie shouted, and an explosion has heard behind. Kangryuu sent Ryohie his Sereno Gloves and Sereno Shoes.

Ryohie, equipped with his gloves and shoes, charged into the crowd of men.

_...oooooo00000OOOOXOOOO00000oooooo…._

Gamma was nearing the group of men when he heard them talk. 'What is Sasagawa doing here?'

"Kangaryuu!" Ryohie shouted. 'The Kangaroo box weapon? How?'

Soon enough a blast of sun flames came out from behind them. The bright light made them shut their eyes.

When he opened them Sasagawa was already equipped with the weapons they had seen and fought him with in the future.

"Gamma, those are?" Tazaru was puzzled by the upturns of the events. Why would a box weapon exist in this era?

"Box Weapon…" Gamma murmured. He watched as Sasagawa battled with battalions of Tenebre Famiglia men.

Though Sasagawa was against a number of people, his strength was balancing the difference.

"Grrr…"

A sound from behind them startled Gamma and Tazaru. They quickly turn, ready to attack whoever it was, but to their surprise it was not a person.

A familiar kangaroo, whose body decorated with scars, stared at them.

"Kangaryuu…?" Gamma whispered.

The kangaroo made a small sound, as if recognizing, which it did, and emit pure sun flames, that started healing Gamma and Tazaru injuries.

Bewilder for a moment, Gamma quickly gave the kangaroo a thankful look and glaze back at the battlefield, just in time to see Sasagawa punch one man that flew right to where three of its comrades are and knock them down. Sasagawa soon jump and floated using the Sereno shoes. For a moment Sasagawa glance at where he and Tazaru were before returning his focus on the enemies. Suddenly his view was blocked by the kangaroo.

"Wha-"

A shout echoed from above.

"MAXIMUM INGRAM!"

Gush of wind carry small pieces of dusts, stones, and sharp metals.

_...oooooo00000OOOOXOOOO00000oooooo…._

After using Maximum Ingram, that made everything within in range of the attack rescind, Ryohie rushed to Gamma, Tazaru and Kangaryuu. "Gamma! Tazaru! Are you okay?!"

"Sasagawa Ryohie, why are you here? Where's Vongola Jyuudaime?" Gamma asked Ryohie, after being temporarily deaf by his shout.

"Tsuna sent me here." Choosing to only answer one questions, Ryohie looked at them, "How's your injuries?"

"It's already fine thanks to your sun flames." Tazaru said.

"Uni, Nosaru, the others, where are they?" None of the Giglio Nero famiglia members could be seen it the field, Ryohie had no idea where to look for them, until he saw Gamma and Tazaru.

"They're safety room. It's underground those boulders. " Gamma pointed a small hill, more or less compose of thirty pieces four by one two meter point-two thick stones from the ruined walls of the mansion.

"Is that room stable?" Worried for the safety of the people inside the said room, Ryohie had to ask the question.

"It should be able to stand all these commotion but we are worried for the ventilation of the room." The room maybe resilient but the circulation of air in the room is uncertain, especially with the amount of people occupying it. But, "We need to secure the perimeter. We can't rescue the princess and endanger her further."

"I understand. I patrol over the west side." Ryohie looked at the two men in front of him.

Understanding the silent questions, Gamma pointed his thumb behind them. "We'll go to the east. Both of us will."

"Alright." Ryohie turned to head to the west but abruptly stop as he remembered something important. "You have Storm and Lighting flames, right?"

"Yeah." Gamma doesn't understand the meaning of the question. Why bother asking for their flame type when they have no box weapon or rings.

"Kangaryuu." Ryohie motioned Kangaryuu to hand over something. After receiving it, Ryohie jog up to Gamma and Tazaru, "Here. From Shoichi."

"Shoichi? 'THAT' Shouichi Irie?!" Gamma was alarmed at the name of the former fake-Sun Funeral Wreath of the Millefiore Famiglia in the future. He looked at the things on Ryohie's hand and sure enough there were rings and box weapons. "Rings… and Box Weapon…"

Snapping out of his daze, Gamma picked up the items, choosing his own before passing them to Nazaru."Thanks."

"No problem. They should help you if you encounter enemies." With that saying, Ryohie and Kangaryuu went to their chosen direction, west.

Gamma and Nazaru head east.

As the two different groups headed into their route, they were attacked by their enemies. Ambushing them, trying to catch them off guard, or attacking them recklessly, thinking they could take them on. With the box weapon they were at upper hand, no normal person can withstand a Dying Will flame, much less a box weapon supported from by Dying Will Flames.

Nazaru, armed with his Dark Scythe, attack and take down any enemies that attacks them. Gamma used his Electro Billiard and activates Electric Cutter with his cue and billiard balls, effectively trapping and attacking the enemies. Ryohie on the other hand, fought with the same Sereno gloves and shoes he had been using all the while.

Colored flames decorated the night sky, colors of green, yellow, and red flashes in the sky. It was beautiful, except for the screams, and explosion that could be heard whenever those flashes appear.

_...oooooo00000OOOOXOOOO00000oooooo…._

All the commotions have died down, Ryohie, Gamma and Nazaru headed back to the pile that was covering the safety room.

"I finished all enemies in the west." Ryohie said to Gamma and Nazaru. Both of them arrive first at the pile.

"Us too. Now, we just need to move these boulders." Gamma motioned the pile in front of them.

"Wouldn't it be faster if we just destroyed these blocks?" Nazaru asked as they near the pile.

"Alright then. Gamma, let's perform an extreme combo." Ryohie said. He raised his right arm and fisted his hand. "Maximum-"

Gamma swayed his cue and targeted his billiard balls. Both of them were doing a mental count down. "Electric-"

"-Canon!""-Cutter!"

As Ryohie's Maximum Canon broke the huge boulders into smaller pieces, Gamma's Electric Cutter pulverized the remaining pieces into dust. They turn the pile of boulders into dust into a matter of seconds. The wind created by the attacks eradicated the dust that had mound above the entrance of the safety room.

Exhale "There it is." Gamma puffed, he, Nazaru and Ryohie rushed to the entrance and opened it.

"Princess! Nosaru! Everyone!" Gamma shouted.

"Gamma!" It was Uni. 'She was safe.' Ryohie sighed.

Yuni dashed to Gamma's side asking for any injuries or filling any sort of pain, then going to Tazaru's side, doing the same thing.

"Thank goodness, you're unharmed, but how?" Uni asked, before looking behind Gamma, and saw, "Sasagawa-san?!"

"Hey! Extremely nice to see you!" Ryohie greeted with his usual cheerful self and used his catchphrase for he was glad she was alright.

"I see. It was Sawada-san, right?" Yuni asked. She knew the reason Ryohie was there was Tsuna. It was a guardian's duty to follow the boss and his orders.

"Irie's extreme strategies, Spanner's extreme invertion, and Tsuna's extreme intuition and over-protectiveness are some of things people should be extremely anxious for." Ryohie said grinning before he gave a serious face. He looked at the people behind Yuni, the Giglio Nero Famiglia members, who were injured from the battle. "There's a lot of time to catch up later. I will heal the injured men since that's my initial purpose."

"Sasagawa-san… Thank you very much!" Yuni bowed. "But… with the number of casualties our famiglia members had undergone, you can't possibly heal everyone. You will exhaust yourself. Please let us help and only use your flames tending those who are critically hurt." Ryohie was about to protest when Yuni continued, "Let us take care of our famiglia."

A famiglia cannot always be dependent to other famiglia. It was a usual sentence for a boss to utter on his/her subordinates. A famiglia prided with the ability to protect its own,an outsider insisting on protecting the famiglia with its refusal can be considered as an insult.

Ryohie understand this, and respected Yuni's decision. "I understand."

He went first to the most badly injured person, lighting up his flames and healing most of the injury. Most people gasped when they saw the flame appeared on Ryohie's hand, they had seen Aria and Yuni use her flames but not from another person.

Ryohie did not mind the gasps and continue working on one person to another.

It became a temporary cycle for Ryohie.

After a while, Ryohie release a huge sigh. He had used a large amount of flames. And it had taken quite a while to finish every major injuries of the famiglia.

Ryohie looked around in search for Yuni and found her helping a little kid. He approached her and stop beside her. "I've finished all major injuries."

"Thank you very much again, Sasagawa-san." Yuni stood up.

"It wasn't a problem, Yuni." Ryohie said hastily. Yuni is very modest and would bow to him again because of gratitude, something he feels every awkward about. "But what are you going to do now?" Ryohie asked. "The fight still has not ended."

"I honestly don't know. Mother is not here." Uni sighed.

"We don't have a place to stay here in Italy now. The nearest is in the North." Gamma abounded the idea. They have a safe house in North Italy for vacation purpose but it was big enough to accommodate everyone.

No one knows how to continue the conversation anymore.

-Beep-

Their attention turned to Ryohie as the sound came from him, and found him clutching his ears before he took something on it. On his palm was an earpiece. "It's Spanner."

"Hey. Long time no see." Spanner was talking through the small piece of communication device.

"Spanner-san…" Yuni mumbled. It was a baritone siding on the bass side but it was familiarly Spanner.

"Vongola's on the move already and asked me to check on everyone's condition." Spanner explained, then asked, "So how is it?"

"All done!" Ryohie confidently said, "But I don't think it's not good to leave them here. The whole place is in ruins."

"It's fine Sasagawa-san. We can ask other famiglia." Yuni hastily said.

"Yeah. We cannot bother you guys too much." Gamma agreed.

"… You have no idea what is going on?" Spanner asked. He was answered by silence. "Ryohie-san?"

"I thought they knew." Ryohie reasoned out.

"Anyway," Spanner sighed. "Some people are currently destroying Vongola. It is happening as we speak. Not only that, but they are also destroying all of Vongola's trusted allies or anybody who could stop them."

"Then the other famiglie?" Yuni asked, worried for their allies.

"Still battling, I guess." Spanner said, "They only want to make sure no one is backing up Vongola as they destroy it."

"Ah, Spanner. Where are Chrome and Hibari?" Ryohie asked, "And the CEDEF?"

"They recently reach Italy, after annihilating all enemies in the CEDEF." Spanner sighed, "Since this happens, I can assist you in the meantime. Is it the mansion in North?"

"Yeah."Gamma said.

"You can use my Mosca-Truck for traveling. I can lead you to the safest route." Spanner said.

"That would be helpful, Spanner." Ryohie said.

"Thank you, Spanner-san" Yuni thanked Spanner whole heartedly.

"Don't mention it." Spanner replied and remind Ryohie, "Ryohie-san should continue on your task after the trucks arrive."

And the line was cut.

"Task?" Yuni asked Ryohie.

"Ah? That? It's Tsuna's requests." Ryohie answered. "I need to meet up with him afterwards."

"I see." Was Yuni's reply. 'Sawada-san is acting to protect them.' Yuni looked at her famiglia.

Ryohie looked at Yuni as she looked her famiglia, before looking at the sight himself. All famiglia members are helping each other and assisting in every way they could.

'It's a great famiglia.'

_...oooooo00000OOOOXOOOO00000oooooo…._

~Somewhere

Takeshi has been fighting of some men from Pericolo famiglia, or so they claimed to be, ever since he left the Varia Mansion. He was heading to a camp site in the forest. The rain had long stopped, the sky was peaceful.

Forgetting Squalo was so likely of him, but he did not expect, he would be solely heading to the enemies' base.

Takeshi sighed as he knocked another person in cold, and looked at the enemies' base. They already know he was here but they keep on sending men to get him, as if they were inviting him. 'Or maybe they are?' Takeshi thought.

Eight meters.

That was the distance of the base from him.

Takeshi decided to be precautious and summon his box weapon. "Open box. Jirou. Kojirou"

A Dog appeared beside Takeshi as a Swallow flew above him. "Kojirou, alert me if they are planning something." Takeshi turned to Jirou, "Stay with me."

Deciding on infiltrating the enemies' base, Takeshi and Jirou walk on towards the location, without any hint of secrecy. On one's view, Takeshi may look confident in walking into the enemies' base but the grip on his katana begs differ. He was anxious of any traps or ambush attacks.

As Takeshi entered the territory, no men attacked him. They all give him hateful glares or fearful looks, which he gave no attention at. He focused on the far center edge on the area. A lot of men were in the area, protecting someone…? Needlessly, he headed toward the direction.

_...oooooo00000OOOOXOOOO00000oooooo…._

Vincent Pericolo was sitting on his throne as he awaits the coming of Vongola Decimo's Rain Guardian. A little monster as his subordinates informed him. Barely on his late teens, but he is holding a tremendous ability. And he wasn't surprise in seeing a teen appear from the forest, but the dog the guardian is with caught is attention; he never heard anything about it from the reports. The dog seemed to be carrying three pouches.

The Rain Guardian when to his direction. And stop a few good meters away from him.

'Not bad.' Vincent thought. 'He's keeping a distant from an unknown enemy.' He stood up.

_...oooooo00000OOOOXOOOO00000oooooo…._

Takeshi approach the group of Mafiosi, still, they did not attack.

In midst of the men on man sat in a throne like chair, Takeshi stared at the scarred man as the man studied him and Jirou. Takeshi put up the distance and did not move from his place.

The man stood up and approached him.

"You must be Vongola Decimo's Rain Guardian?" The man said. The men around them tensed, ready to attack Takeshi if he attacked the man.

"If so." Takeshi knew the man already knew who he was.

"I am Vincent Pericolo, head of the Pericolo Famiglia." Vincent introduced himself. "As expected of Vongola, finding someone strong and powerful like you, someone who is in an entirely different caliber."

Vincent walked in circle around Takeshi, a good meter and a half away from Takeshi, inspecting every wound and blow he received. Amazed by the little damage he had received in fighting nearly 9,000 men, if one would include the ones he knocked down in the forest.

"Pity, you don't kill." Vicent sneered.

"They are not worthy, I suppose." Takeshi said. "They are puppets controlled by their master."

"So you plan on killing me." Vincent gave a dry laugh. "I made my famiglia out of nothing and made it stand in power within just my reign." He looked at Takeshi. "Not taking over someone else's glory. Decimo seemed to be having the time of his life as heir."

"Contrary to what you know, 'he' did not know he was heir until 4 years ago." Takeshi said.

"Not of that matter. The question is why are you serving him?" Vincent asked. "With your potential-"

Takeshi let out a chuckle.

"What is funny?!" Vincent snapped at him.

"Haha. Nothing, I was wondering what you are after but you merely want to lease me. Like your right-hand man." Takeshi laughed a bit. "My loyalty lies with Decimo, not all of Vongola."

Vincent saw red when he heard it, then smirked. "You seemed to be unaware that the Vongola is being destroyed here."

"Is that so?" Takeshi and swing his hands on his back, together with his katana, preventing a bullet from hitting him. "You only manage to get Varia by surprise, and so is Vongola."

Vincent doubted what he saw. The gun has a silencer on it and yet, this kid still managed to catch it. "Bastard! You-"

-Beep-

"Oh, Excuse me." Takeshi touched his earpiece, "Spanner, what's wrong?"

"Since you are speaking I'll assume you are alright." Spanner said though the earpiece, "What phase are you now?

"Now? I'm about to start phase two. Why?" Takeshi was puzzled by Spanner's questions. Did he forget something?

"I've sent the Varia's box weapons through a prototype Mosca." 'The ones you forgot to take.' Though Spanner left some words unsaid. "Squalo said not to touch his prey."

"I see. Sorry about the weapons." Takeshi knew his mentor would kill him if he fought with his prey. "I understand. I'll wait then." Takeshi cut off the connection.

Takeshi focused once more to the Pericolo Famiglia in front of him. Vincent was looking at him intently. "Looks like I won't be fighting you anymore. Squalo woke up."

Before anybody could ask, something landed from the sky on the ground a meter away from Takeshi. It was a robot. "He is here."

"VVVOOOOIII!" Squalo shouted, "You baseball nut! Our weapons were supposed to be sent with you and you forgot them!"

_...oooooo00000OOOOXOOOO00000oooooo…._

~ITALY Varia HQ

-A few minutes ago-

Squalo was resting on the boulders of the ruined mansion when he felt something heavy landed on the ground. He stood up, searching for the thing that landed, and his glazed fell on the Mosca standing beside Takeshi's bike.

The Mosca turned to him, as if analyzing him, before it pulled out a mini screen in its screen was then switched on, projecting a familiar younger face of Spanner.

"Squalo-san… ah, you don't look good." Spanner said, "Is your Sun guardian there? The Mosca right there has the box weapons and rings which were supposed to be delivered by Takeshi-san."

"Box weapons?" Squalo questioned, sure the brat and his guardians got their box weapon as gift from the Arcobaleno but it was only them.

"We made them." Spanner said. "After you heal-"

"Send me to Takeshi Yamamoto!" Squalo cut off. "I won't forgive him for taking my preys."

"Mmm… Okay." Spanner cut off the communication.

"Voi! Lussuria, where are you?!" Squalo shouted yet again, after taking the box weapons from the Mosca.

A small tremble from the pile behind him caught Squalo's attention. "There you are." Squalo used his sword to cut the huge bricks and make them ease to move. The one who rose from the pile was-

"Belphegor."Squalo wanted to bury the teen again.

"Yo. Comander." Bel said, "Ushishishi… you don't seem to be happy to see the prince. Lussuria is in the next pile."

Squalo unpick the stones and saw the unconscious Lussuria. Another vein popped. "VOi! Don't sleep!"

"Mou… Squa-chan, I'm injured you know." Lussuria sat up.

"We'll remain injured if you don't wake up!" Squalo threw the box weapon on Lussuria's face, which he unfortunately caught.

"These are?" Lussuria examined the items before screaming, "Box weapon!"

Bel looked at Squalo and asked, "Where did you get those?"

"The brat sent them. Hurry up Lussuria!" Squalo shouted, he need to catch up with the baseball nut, d*mn it.

"Open box! Pavone Del Sereno!" Lussuria lit a sun flame from his ring and insert them to the box weapon. A peacock covered with sun flames appeared, "It's been a long time, darling~!" Squalo glared at him. "Now, heal us will you."

Understanding Lussuria's order the Sun peacock emits an enormous sun flames and heal them. And in the process, made their nails and hairs grow long due to the cells that multiplied so rapidly.

"Ara! The wounds are gone." Lussuria said as he examining his body.

"Voi! I'm going after the baseball nut!" Squalo exclaimed as he cut his hair to its usual length with his swords.

"Ushishishi… the prince is coming with you." Bel said also cutting his hair but with his knifes.

"Huh?! WHY?!" Squalo demanded.

"Because I am a Prince." Was Bel only response.

Unnecessary, they headed to where Takeshi was with the Mosca. And saw him standing in the midst of the Pericolo men doing nothing. When the Mosca landed a few meters from Takeshi, Squalo lost it.

"VVVOOOOIII!" Squalo shouted, "You baseball nut! Our weapons were supposed to be sent with you and you forgot them!"
