07x170 - Fateful Showdown

[bunniefuu]

Tsuna: Too late.

Kyoko: Tsuna-kun!

Haru: Eek! He's flying!

Ryohei: Okay! That did it!

Tsuna: Those are...

Tsuna: Those are Lighting-class flames.

Reborn: Don't stand there stunned, Tsuna!

Tori: Mystic Illusion...

Tori: Repe Serpente di Mare.

Tsuna: Na-Tsu.

Tsuna: Got it.

Tsuna: I'm counting on you.

Tsuna: Leone di Cielo ver. Vongola!

Squalo: A Sky-class lion, just like our damn boss.

Squalo: But they're very different.

Byaku: Thought so.

Byaku: Using the Sun-class harmony factor to petrify them?

Tsuna: This is over.

Tsuna: Let's do this, Na-Tsu.

Tsuna: Na-Tsu.

Tsuna: Cambio Forma Modo Difesa.

EpTitle: Target Fateful Showdown

Reborn: Not bad, Tsuna.

Basil: Vongola Primo's cloak!

Reborn: Yeah.

Reborn: He used the Sky-class harmony factor to turn those sea snakes

: into stone and render their attacks useless.

Kyoko: I'm so relieved, Tsuna-kun.

Haru: My heart was about to stop.

Ipin: Tsuna-san's amazing! So cool!

Lambo: Lambo-san wants that fluttery thing!

Lambo: Gimme, Tsuna!

Byaku: Hmm? A Box Animal becoming a weapon?

Blue: Byakuran, what's that?

Blue: What's going on?

Byaku: It means that the Vongola has been doing some thinking of his own.

Blue: Huh, I don't get it.

Byaku: They'll let us have some fun.

Byaku: It doesn't get more boring than a one-sided game.

Tsuna: Thank you, Na-Tsu.

Tsuna: Now it's my turn.

Tori: Pitiful one...

Tsuna: That'd be you.

Tsuna: Don't need to hold back...

Tsuna: against a monster.

Gokudera: All right! That's our boss!

Yamamoto: You did it, Tsuna.

Spanner: Punch flame pressure at , Fiamma Volts...

Spanner: That's a new record.

Spanner: The Vongola really does get stronger every time he fights.

Spanner: The flame reading from the enemy the Vongola engaged has disappeared.

Irie: Good job, Tsunayoshi-kun.

Tsuna: But we don't win until we defeat the target.

Irie: Yep.

CervelloA: Exactly.

CervelloA: Under Target rules,

: the side who first extinguishes the target marker

: on the target's chest will win.

CervelloA: Shoichi Irie and Daisy are still alive, so the battle continues.

Tsuna: I'll just head towards the target through the air from here.

Irie: That won't work.

Irie: As long as two or more enemies remain,

: you run the risk of a pincer attack.

Irie: Extinguish your flames and go by bike.

Tsuna: Got it.

Reborn: Always assume the worst possible conditions.

Reborn: Not bad, Shoichi.

Dino: Yeah.

Spanner: Shoichi, there's an enemy approaching Takeshi Yamamoto's position.

Spanner: Current distance at fifty.

Irie: Yamamoto-kun, can you verify the enemy from your position?

Yamamoto: Haven't seen anything so far.

Irie: But there's a flame reading.

Irie: The enemy is probably concealed by an illusion.

Irie: In any case, the enemy should be heading to destroy the decoy.

Irie: I'm gonna lower the decoy within the range of your sword,

Irie: so make the first attack while the enemy is focused on the decoy.

Irie: You'll have a much better chance of winning.

Irie: Yamamoto-kun?

Irie: Are you listening?

Yamamoto: Something's here.

Yamamoto: Sorry. We'll talk later.

Irie: Roger that.

Yamamoto: Found ya!

Yamamoto: Wha-?!

Yamamoto: This ain't good!

Saru: Excellent dodging.

Saru: But you can no longer move.

Saru: I shall finish you now.

Yamamoto: You're that Saru guy...

Saru: But I find it ironic.

Saru: You barely escaped with your life the first time,

Saru: only to find yourself facing the same fate once again, Takeshi Yamamoto.

Yamamoto: Huh? Once again?

Saru: Will this help you understand?

Yamamoto: The Phantom Knight!

Irie: Impossible...

Irie: Didn't Tsunayoshi-kun defeat the Phantom Knight?

Haru: Wh-Who is that dangerous-looking person?

Lambo: I don't like him!

Ipin: Scary person!

Kyoko: I-Pin-chan...

Kyoko: It's okay.

Kyoko: It's okay, Lambo-kun.

Reborn: They had a real humdinger mixed in there.

Dino: Yeah.

Phantom: You should know the difference between your ability and mine.

Yamamoto: Shigure Soen Ryu.

Yamamoto: Special Stance .

Yamamoto: Scontro di Rondine!

On Screen: ,Scontro di Rondine

Phantom: Mist is deception.

Phantom: Not that the Vongola have such a master of illusions as I.

Phantom: Unlucky guy...

Phantom: Farewell!

Squalo: You're the one who's unlucky, Phantom Knight.

Yamamoto: I've been waiting for a chance

Yamamoto: to get revenge.

Yamamoto: I've been waiting for a chance

Yamamoto: to get revenge.

Phantom: The dog with the sword

Phantom: is your Vongola Box?

Yamamoto: Yeah, something like that.

Yamamoto: It's an Akita Inu named Jiro.

Yamamoto: He looks after my three short swords for me.

Kyoko: He's nestling up to him.

Haru: Look at them bond.

Haru: They must be really close.

Ipin: I-Pin likes dogs.

Lambo: I'm way cuter than that thing.

Squalo: Damn kid...

Squalo: Stop wasting time.

Dino: Looks like his training with Squalo went well.

Reborn: Takes a swordsman to train a swordsman.

Yamamoto: But I'm actually going to use four swords, like you did last time.

Reborn: Fighting with four swords, huh?

Yamamoto: So, is it okay for me to go grab my fourth sword?

Yamamoto: That last attack sent it flying.

Phantom: Takeshi Yamamoto.

: Hmm?

Phantom: You have certainly matured a bit,

Phantom: but don't push your luck

Phantom: after dodging just one attack!

Reborn: Those invisible sea slugs,

Reborn: Spettrale Nudibranc missiles are coming.

Phantom: Wha-?!

Phantom: This man...

Basil: The Phantom Knight disappeared!

Kyoko: Yamamoto-kun...

Haru: Will he be okay?

Reborn: Not only has Yamamoto learned how to fight while flying,

Reborn: he's also learned how to use

: ring flames to determine the locations of Spettrale Nudibranc.

Basil: But he won't be able to attack if he can't see the enemy!

Yamamoto: Over there!

Phantom: I-Impossible...

Basil: A-Amazing...

Phantom: Unbelievable...

Phantom: He was able to see through my illusion that was

: perfectly synchronized with Spettrale Nudibranc!

Yamamoto: The plan worked.

Yamamoto: You were so focused on Jiro that you didn't notice the one above.

Phantom: Above?

Phantom: Rondine di Pioggia!

Yamamoto: It was spreading Rain-class flames

Yamamoto: on the giant tree created by your sea slugs.

Yamamoto: And Rain-class flames carry the tranquility factor.

Yamamoto: And then, once your sea slugs had been bathed in Rain-class flames,

Yamamoto: their movements gradually became slower.

Yamamoto: Your speed remained the same, so you ended up getting out of sync.

Reborn: So the Phantom Knight's position could be found by looking

: for a spot where the illusion wasn't moving right.

Yamamoto: By the way, this guy's name is Kojiro.

Kyoko: Jiro and Kojiro.

Kyoko: How funny!

Haru: His choice of names is really something.

Yamamoto: Well then.

Yamamoto: Just so you know, we've only just started to get serious.

Phantom: What's going on with this man?

Phantom: He is no longer the Takeshi Yamamoto from before!

Dino: The Box Weapon was impressive,

Dino: but the real surprise is how much Yamamoto's progressed to master it.

Reborn: Yeah.

Reborn: There's a new drive that has taken his sword to a whole new level.

Reborn: What happened to him?

Squalo: His dedication to the sword.

Squalo: That scum had more than enough talent to become a top-class swordsman,

Squalo: but he had one weakness.

Dino: Weakness?

Squalo: A softness that kept him from becoming a true swordsman.

Yamamoto: A softness that keeps me from becoming a true swordsman?

Squalo: Your future self was also the same.

Squalo: I didn't like it.

Squalo: But I kept quiet since I figured it was just a part of you.

Yamamoto: Wh-What are you talking about?

Squalo: If you truly want to become strong, you can only do one thing.

Squalo: Baseball or the sword,

Squalo: choose one.

Yamamoto: What're you, my guidance counselor?

Squalo: You have enough talent to master both!

Squalo: But you do not merely master the sword!

Squalo: You devote yourself to it!

Yamamoto: My mind's already made up then.

Yamamoto: I'll focus on the sword.

Yamamoto: When I fought against the Phantom Knight,

Yamamoto: I'll admit, I was confident that I would win.

Yamamoto: I'd grown relatively stronger after training with the kid.

Yamamoto: I was intent on winning and returning to the past with everyone.

Yamamoto: But I was shown just how weak I was and utterly defeated.

Yamamoto: As I lost consciousness, I felt all this regret...

Yamamoto: That I'd tainted my old man's Shigure Soen Ryu.

Yamamoto: Besides...

Yamamoto: I had to wonder if I'd failed to do the best I could for my buddies.

Yamamoto: I never want to feel that way again.

Yamamoto: But it's funny...

Yamamoto: The second I decided to focus solely on the sword,

: it felt like a huge weight had been lifted off my shoulders.

Squalo: So that's why you were grinning after you lost.

Yamamoto: Well, it's still a little lonely.

Yamamoto: Having to completely forget about baseball,

Yamamoto: even if it's only for a limited time.

Squalo: A limited time?!

Yamamoto: Yeah, until we return to the past.

Squalo: Hey!

Squalo: I have a problem with that!

Squalo: I don't like his motive or the time limit,

: but his full dedication to the sword turned him into a real swordsman.

Reborn: Choosing the sword when forced to choose between two options...

Reborn: He's just like the original Guardian of the Rain Ring.

Basil: From the original Vongola Family?

Reborn: Yeah.

Reborn: The original Guardian of the Rain Ring...

Reborn: It was said that he had no peer when it came to the sword.

Reborn: His talent was admired by all.

Reborn: But he loved music above all else, and didn't possess a sword of his own.

Reborn: However, when he heard that his foreign friend, Vongola Primo, was in trouble,

Reborn: he sold the instrument he valued more than his life

Reborn: to pay for weapons and travel expenses in order to help.

Reborn: He didn't hesitate to give up everything he had for his friend.

Reborn: He exchanged his instrument

Reborn: to have three short swords and one long blade made.

Dino: That's...

Reborn: Inside Yamamoto's Vongola Box were Jiro and three short swords.

Reborn: But that isn't all.

Reborn: Kojiro the rain swallow was integrated with the Vongola Box and upgraded.

Reborn: Yamamoto should be able to understand what that means now.

Yamamoto: Kojiro!

Yamamoto: Cambio Forma!

Basil: Shigure Kintoki united with the swallow!

Reborn: That's a long blade.

Reborn: So Yamamoto's Vongola Box holds

Reborn: what was considered a blessed shower to cleanse all...

Reborn: {\fad(,)}Asari Ugetsu

Reborn: Asari Ugetsu, the four irregular swords!

Reborn: Ciao-su.
