I am the protagonist

"There's no need to worry too much about what's happening over there."

“D. Spado’s actions presented me with a perfect opportunity.”

"Hey?"

Tsuna smiled and patted Chrome's head.

"The most difficult thing to repay in this world is a favor. Rokudo Mukuro saved your life when you were in danger and used his illusion technique to create missing internal organs for you. Regardless of his purpose, he gave you a new life and also gave you hope."

"This kindness is something I will remember for a lifetime."

"But since you are my guardian, you won't be able to repay this favor in the future. So this time, I'll help him out for your sake."

This is precisely why things are so complicated.

Is D. Spado difficult to deal with?

A person who has lived this long is definitely not easy to deal with. If he doesn't come out on his own, it would be very difficult to catch him.

However, this only applies to the average person.

So, is Tsunayoshi an ordinary person?

D-Spade's location, situation, and the person he is currently possessing can be known with careful prediction. This is not difficult for Tsuna, and it is not even difficult to destroy him.

The problem is that doing so would mean missing a great opportunity.

An opportunity to repay the favor that Chrome owes.

Regardless, Chrome's life was still saved by Rokudo Mukuro, and now Chrome has become the Vongola's guardian, also because of Rokudo Mukuro.

Therefore, this favor must be repaid, otherwise Chrome will never feel at ease.

"He was imprisoned by the Avengers for doing something, and given his prison break, it's impossible for the Avengers to release him from prison."

"Although I have a certain agreement with the Avengers, I will not waste the value of that agreement on something like this."

"But it would be different if the Avengers made the agreement with me on their own initiative."

“And D-Spedo is in that position right now.”

At this moment, Chrome finally understood why the Boss had used such a complicated method to handle things this time.

[The boss did this because of me!]

Knowing this, Chrome's eyes became more enigmatic.

I knew it...

I used to feel especially safe when I was with the Boss, and I could only fall asleep peacefully when the Boss was around.

The reasons for all of this are already very clear.

Because she likes the Boss.

"You're not worried anymore?"

"Ah."

Chrome didn't say anything more about the other matters.

She still remembered the kindness of Lord Mukuro, but she couldn't bring herself to hurt the Boss for Lord Mukuro's sake.

Since the Boss has already arranged so many things, she might as well go with the flow.

Chrome doesn't want to go back to Obsidian Middle School now, since she has found a place where she can exist and doesn't need to return to Obsidian Middle School.

Seeing and hearing all this at Sawada's house, Iemitsu felt as if a hundred alpacas were trampling over his head.

"...Is this my son?"

"Just because you wanted to help Chrome repay that favor, you actually let this kind of thing happen?"

Now Iemitsu understood why he always felt something was off; he finally realized where the real problem lay.

D-Spade has become a pawn in his son's hands, and this pawn will transform into light and heat to completely resolve the issues between the Vongola and the Simon family. It can even help his son repay the favor that Chrome owes Rokudo Mukuro.

Iemitsu had no idea that his son had become so cunning.

"I knew it was."

Reborn adjusted his hat; he had felt that Tsuna's behavior was a bit off.

He only understood Tsuna's purpose when he learned that D-Spade was after Rokudo Mukuro.

Chapter 185 D-Spado is a man deserving of sympathy

"With that ability, Tsuna would definitely have the upper hand even against D-Spade, but that Tsuna just happened to use the most troublesome method to deal with it."

Reborn had only started thinking about Tsuna's motives after he sensed something was wrong. He only understood why Tsuna had gone to such lengths after learning about D-Spedo's purpose.

Everything was for Chrome!

Having witnessed everything, they understood D-Spedo's purpose.

[Let D-Spedo unleash all his potential, using this incident to resolve the conflict between the Vongola and Simon, and incidentally, also resolve Chrome's problem.]

[We might even be able to take this opportunity to eliminate D-Spade as well.]

[Tsuna really did calculate everything.]

However, after scheming everything, the ultimate goal turned out to be Chrome.

This is the only thing that remains completely unchanged.

But all of D-Spade's efforts were in vain; everything he did became a stepping stone for Tsuna.

If that guy had known all this before he died, he probably would have gone insane.

Even Reborn felt that D. Spade was really too pitiful at that moment.

He completely burned himself out, illuminating the entire scene.

The key point is that this person was completely unaware of this.

The last one who made Reborn feel miserable, Gamma, is probably crying somewhere now. This one probably can't even cry.

"That's the reason for everything."

Reborn shook his head with a hint of pity.

"D-Spedo, you really are pathetic."

"..."

At this moment, Iemitsu also felt that D-Spedo was truly miserable.

He orchestrated all the things he thought he could do for his son.

The plan to seize Rokudo Mukuro's body was entirely at his son's behest, and all of this was because his son wanted to repay Rokudo Mukuro's favor for Chrome.

"In order to bring the Simon family and Tsuna to a complete confrontation, and also to ensure that Sue Sai of the Simon family and Tsuna perish together, D-Spade really made a lot of preparations."

"But if he finds out that all his preparations have become Tsuna's stuff, he... he'll be really miserable."

Even as the betrayer, Iemitsu felt that the other person was heading towards a very bleak future.

Even the future has been involved.

"Iemitsu, as an outsider consultant, it's inappropriate for you to say such things."

“…Reborn, you don’t seem to be in a good position to say that.”

“An outside consultant and a tutor are different.”

Okay, Iemitsu has to admit that an outside consultant and a tutor are different.

As an external advisor, he is responsible for the entire Vongola, while Reborn is only responsible for Tsuna.

"Alright, I'll contact Ninth Prince."

Reborn turned off the monitor and sat down in the living room by himself.

[You're much more realistic than you used to be, Tsuna.]

The sky has both a bright side and a dark side.

The sky can encompass everything.

The sky can also devour everything.

Reborn saw both the sky's embrace and its ruthlessness in Tsuna.

[But this isn't so bad. Perhaps this amnesia is truly the best thing for you.]

This is also the best thing you can do for the people around you.

But this kind of stupidity feels all the more real.

Unlike the foolish Tsuna of the past, who simply maintained his naive ideas.

If things continue like that, one day darkness will completely engulf the sky, leaving it with no more opportunities to embrace everything.

On the other hand, Iemitsu also told Ninth about all of his son's plans and ideas.

After learning everything, Ninth Prince was still a little confused.

"...Iemitsu, you said Tsuna could have handled things in advance, but he let things happen like this?"

"Yes."

"...Iemitsu, are you saying that Tsuna allowed D-Sped to succeed because he wanted to help Chrome repay Rokudo Mukuro's favor?"

"……Yes."

At this moment, the Ninth Emperor was truly a little dizzy.

At this moment, he wasn't just a little dizzy, he was completely bewildered.

"In other words, from the very beginning, Tsuna knew that the Simon family's affairs were orchestrated by D-Spade."

"But the reason he doesn't take the initiative to resolve it is because he wants to use D-Spado to completely resolve the conflict between Simon and Vongola."

"Then he let D-Spade do whatever he wanted so that he could use D-Spade to release Rokudo Mukuro from the Avengers' prison, and also to make Chrome repay Rokudo Mukuro's life-saving debt completely."

"...That's pretty much it."

Hmm, very good. Jiu Shi felt that not only his head hurt, but his stomach also hurt.

Previously, when Tsuna returned to this era from the future, he personally stepped in to help Tsuna resolve the issues between Aria and Yuni, but now he's caused trouble again.

Although this time it wasn't Tsuna who deliberately caused the trouble, he knew perfectly well that he had chosen to let it go... Oh, well, Tsuna deliberately let D-Spade run wild for his own purposes, and even let it end up causing some trouble during the succession ceremony.

At this moment, Ninth Generation felt that all his years of living had not been as exciting as what Tsunayoshi had done in the past few years.

"...Let's put aside D-Spade's matter for now. Since Tsuna has already made preparations, let him handle things over there."

Just thinking about that incident makes Jiu Shi's stomach ache terribly.

However, the D-Spade incident is just one of many. Even if it leads to the blood flood incident seven years ago, the situation can still be controlled within a certain range. Moreover, Tsuna has already made all the preparations, so there is no need for him to continue to worry about it.

Right now, the Ninth Generation is focused on Tsunayoshi's abilities.

"Iemitsu, you said Tsuna's ability... is it real?"

When Iemitsu mentioned Tsunayoshi's abilities, even the well-informed Ninth Generation was almost scared out of his wits.

Time stops!

He had only ever tried to speed up his own time, but he had never heard of stopping time in the world.

There is no doubt that time has a powerful ability, but the price to pay for this ability is extremely high.

However, when he learned that Tsuna could use his abilities without any cost, he almost fainted.

The ability to use time without any cost.

There is absolutely no need to worry about the effects of time.

This version of Tsuna is undoubtedly the strongest Vongola Boss in history. Even the first Vongola Boss couldn't use the time-manipulation ability without paying a price.

"……Yes."

Chapter 186 Meeting with the Ninth Generation Before the Inheritance Ceremony

Time quickly came to the day when the succession ceremony was about to take place.

The day before the succession ceremony, Tsunayoshi and all the Guardians had already traveled to Italy.
