[bunniefuu]

EpTitle: Target The Duty of the Guardian of Rain

Ugetsu: Takeshi Yamamoto.

Ugetsu: Return here tomorrow night.

Yamamoto: Huh?

Ugetsu: I shall give you another opportunity to receive the inheritance.

Yamamoto: You're giving me a second chance?

Tsuna: Th-That's great.

Ugetsu: However...

Tsuna: Huh?

Ugetsu: If you fail tomorrow's test,

Ugetsu: there will not be another.

Ugetsu: Keep that in mind.

Yamamoto: Y-Yeah...

Tsuna: Yamamoto...

Gokudera: Boss.

Tsuna: Oh, Gokudera-kun.

Gokudera: Yamamoto isn't here yet.

Tsuna: Normally, he'd be at school by now.

Tsuna: Yamamoto!

Gokudera: What the hell were you doing?!

Tsuna: I thought you weren't going to come today.

Yamamoto: Oh, sorry.

Yamamoto: I slept in.

Tsuna: Yamamoto's really down...

Teach: Hey! The bell already rang for homeroom!

Teach: Get in your seats!

Tsuna: Oh, sorry!

Gokudera: Bah.

Teach: This was on short notice, but we have a transfer student joining us today.

Tsuna: Transfer student?

Teach: Come on in.

Yuni: Yes.

Tsuna: That voice!

Tsuna: It is you, Yuni!

Gokudera: What?!

Teach: Oh, Sawada, you know her?

Tsuna: Huh?

Tsuna: Y-Yeah.

Teach: In any case...

Teach: Everybody give her a big welcome.

Yuni: I'm excited to be a part of this class.

Tsuna: That was completely unexpected.

Tsuna: You just suddenly showed up at school.

Kyoko: I was surprised too!

Tsuna: You could have told me back at home.

Yuni: Yes, I was going to,

Yuni: but Uncle Reborn said...

Reborn: "If you don't tell Tsuna,"

: "we can enjoy his reaction when he sees you at school."

Yuni: So I didn't.

Tsuna: Huh? What's that supposed to mean?

Tsuna: Wait, that voice was...

Reborn: Ciao-su.

Tsuna: Don't give me that!

Tsuna: What's going on here?

Reborn: Don't forget that Yuni is your tutor.

Tsuna: B-But still...

Reborn: Kyoko, could you show Yuni around the school?

Kyoko: Sure.

Kyoko: Let's go then, Yuni-chan.

Yuni: Okay.

Reborn: Now, the problem is Yamamoto.

Reborn: Ugetsu said that you should know the answer he's seeking.

Tsuna: I did some thinking, but I'm not sure.

Tsuna: But...

Gokudera: Boss?

Tsuna: During the test last night, Yamamoto seemed different somehow.

Tsuna: Like he was in pain...

Tsuna: He wasn't the usual Yamamoto...

Yamamoto: I defeated Asari Ugetsu.

Yamamoto: So, why...

Ugetsu: You fail.

Yamamoto: N-No way...

Yamamoto: Why?

Yamamoto: What did I do wrong?

Tsuna: Yamamoto.

Yamamoto: Tsuna.

Tsuna: Uh, about what happened yesterday...

Yamamoto: Sorry.

Tsuna: Ah, th-that's not it!

Tsuna: Well...

Tsuna: After seeing you yesterday, it started bothering me...

Yamamoto: Huh?

Tsuna: I'm always relying on you too much.

Tsuna: And because of that,

Tsuna: I put unnecessary pressure on you without realizing it.

Tsuna: Sorry.

Yamamoto: Tsuna...

Yamamoto: Sorry for making you worry.

Tsuna: Huh?

Tsuna: Th-That's not what I meant!

Gokudera: Are you an idiot?!

Gokudera: The boss is trying to cheer you up,

Gokudera: and you just beat yourself up more?!

Tsuna: G-Gokudera-kun!

Yamamoto>: Sorry, Tsuna, Gokudera.

Kyoko: Thank you very much, Bianchi-san.

Haru: It's very kind of you to accompany us.

Ipin: Much appreciated.

Bianchi: It's not a big deal.

Bianchi: But what business do you have there?

Haru: We're going to see Chrome-chan.

Bianchi: Chrome?

Ipin: She's my friend.

Haru: Haru and I made some lunch for her.

Bianchi: When did they become friends?

Kyoko: But I'm so glad you came with us.

Kyoko: We heard that Kokuyo Land had been abandoned.

Haru: So we were worried about going there by ourselves.

Bianchi: Yes, it would be dangerous for you to go by yourselves.

Haru: Eek?! Really?

Bianchi: Yes, some bizarre people live there.

Tsuna: We have another chance, but what are we supposed to do?

Gokudera: We'll have to analyze the reason he failed his test.

Ryohei: If he failed by winning, shouldn't he just lose?

Tsuna: R-Ryohei!

Gokudera: Moron!

Gokudera: It can't be that simple!

Ryohei: Really?

Gokudera: He said that this was a test of how

Gokudera: we could embody the duty of a Guardian.

Tsuna: Yeah.

Gokudera: The duty of the Guardian of the Rain Ring is to become a blessed shower...

Gokudera: Requiem Rain, that settles conflict and washes everything away.

Tsuna: Settles conflict and washes everything away...

Ryohei: How about you clean up the area after the battle?

Gokudera: That's not what it means!

Gokudera: Are you trying to be funny, Turf top?!

Ryohei: What was that?!

Ryohei: I'm dead serious!

Tsuna: Gokudera-kun!

Tsuna: And Ryohei, calm down!

Yamamoto: Sorry.

Tsuna: Huh?

Yamamoto: You're all doing your best to think of a way to help me,

Yamamoto: and I can't think of anything.

Tsuna: Yamamoto...

Yuni: Are Sawada-san and the others doing okay?

Fong: While it's good that they're back to contemplating

Fong: the duty of a Guardian...

Reborn: Yamamoto's dug himself into a hole.

Reborn: What are you going to do, Colonnello?

Haru: Chrome-chan! Where are you?

: Chrome-chan?

Kyoko: Is she not here?

Haru: Looks like it.

Haru: Eek!

Ken: Who the heck are you guys?!

Chikusa: It's unusual for us to have visitors.

Bianchi: It's been a while.

Haru: Eek!

Kyoko: Who are these people?

Bianchi: It's fine. Don't worry.

Haru: Could you be Chrome-chan's friends?

Kyoko: We came to see Chrome-chan.

Ken: Chrome?

Ken: What business do you have with her?

Haru: We brought some rice ba*ls.

Kyoko: We thought that Chrome-chan might be hungry.

Ken: Rice ba*ls?

Haru: Eek!

Bianchi: They're not for you.

Ken: Chrome ain't here.

Kyoko: Huh?

Haru: She went out?

Chikusa: She hasn't been back since she left the day before yesterday.

Bianchi: Where'd she go?

Chikusa: Beats me.

Ken: She ran off without telling us anything.

ken: I'll let her have it when she comes back.

Haru: The day before yesterday?

Kyoko: The day we returned from the future...

On Screen: ,Asarigumi

Yamamoto: This won't do...

Yamamoto: But I don't know what I'm supposed to do.

Col: Yamamoto...

Dad: Takeshi!

Dad: Brought you a little something.

Dad: How about taking a break?

Yamamoto: Dad...

Yamamoto: Looks great!

Yamamoto: Thanks!

Dad: Takeshi, what's wrong?

Yamamoto: Huh?

Dad: You've been cooped up in the dojo the past few days.

Yamamoto: O-Oh.

Yamamoto: There's just something I need to do.

Dad: I see.

Dad: I'm not going to interfere with something you decided for yourself...

Dad: But Takeshi, what's with the look on your face?

Dad: That's not like you.

Yamamoto: Dad...

Yamamoto: Dad, I don't know what to do.

Yamamoto: No matter how much I think, I'm completely blanking.

Dad: When that happens, Takeshi,

Dad: it's not an issue of what you should do.

Dad: It's an issue of what you want to do.

Yamamoto: Dad...

Dad: Yeah.

Dad: Whoops.

Dad: This is a busy time for the restaurant.

Dad: I'm gonna head back.

Dad: You'd better finish all of that.

Yamamoto: Yeah. Thanks, Dad.

Dad: Sure thing. Cheer up.

Yamamoto: What I want to do...

Phantom: Why don't you finish me off?

Yamamoto: That's because we aren't fighting for

Yamamoto: the sake of taking away people's lives.

Yamamoto: Colonnello, sorry about yesterday.

Yamamoto: I sent you flying with that hit.

Col: Do you know why I tried to stop you, maggot?

Yamamoto: Huh?

Col: If you haven't figured that out, you have no chance today.

Yamamoto: Why? Tell me.

Col: Don't use me as a crutch, maggot.

Col: This is something you need to figure out by yourself.

Col: Use the time you have left to think long and hard about the answer.

Col: I'll be waiting at the shrine, maggot!

Tsuna: Yamamoto.

Yamamoto: Guys.

Ryohei: You're late, Yamamoto.

Gokudera: Did you figure something out yet?

Gokudera: b*stard!

Tsuna: Wait, Gokudera-kun!

Gokudera: Boss...

Tsuna: Sorry, Yamamoto.

Tsuna: I've been thinking this whole time,

Tsuna: but I couldn't find an answer.

Tsuna: And Asari Ugetsu even said I should know the answer.

Yamamoto: Tsuna...

Tsuna: But there's one thing I've realized.

Tsuna: I can't stand seeing that painful look on your face.

Tsuna: The usual Yamamoto always smiles at us and goes, "Now, now,"

: no matter how panicked the rest of us are.

Tsuna: That's always been really comforting.

Tsuna: I'm not entirely sure,

Tsuna: but if that look on your face is because you're pushing yourself too hard,

Tsuna: I want you to stop.

Yamamoto: Tsuna...

Yamamoto: Tsuna.

Yamamoto: Sorry. Looks like I really made you worry.

Tsuna: Yamamoto...

Ugetsu: Takeshi Yamamoto, are you ready?

Yamamoto: Yeah.

Ugetsu: It seems I have no choice.

Gokudera: Tough it out now, Yamamoto!

Ryohei: Win the right to inherit his power!

Tsuna: Yamamoto...

Yamamoto: Here I go.

Yamamoto: Scontro di Rondine!

Tsuna: Yamamoto!

Gokudera: Did he get him?!

Ryohei: No, not yet.

Tsuna: Huh?

Tsuna: He used his four swords to block Yamamoto's attack.

Ugetsu: A fine technique.

Yamamoto: Not so bad yourself.

Yamamoto: Kojiro!

Yamamoto: Cambio Forma!

Ugetsu: Frozen Rain.

Yamamoto: Special Stance .

Yamamoto: Beccata di Rondine!

Ryohei: Hey! He blocked it!

Gokudera: He used thrusts to counter that intricate frozen rain.

Tsuna: Yamamoto... You're amazing...

Ugetsu: Torrential Dance.

Yamamoto: What?!

Gokudera: Ugetsu is multiplying!

Ryohei: What's going on?!

Reborn: He's created a torrent of Rain flames...

Fong: To use as a screen that serves to mirror his image.

Ugetsu: Now, what will you do?

Yamamoto: Defensive Stance .

Yamamoto: Surging Rain!

Reborn: Yamamoto's done some thinking.

Fong: He's countering Ugetsu's Rain flames

Fong: by using Surging Rain to extinguish them from below.

Ugetsu: Well done.

Ugetsu: In that case...

Ugetsu: Kuzuryu Riverfall.

Yamamoto: This attack is...

Yamamoto: I'll get him this time!

Dad: It's not an issue of what you should do.

Dad: It's an issue of what you want to do.

Tsuna: But if that look on your face is because you're pushing yourself too hard,

Tsuna: I want you to stop.

Tsuna: Huh?

Gokudera: He stopped his attack?

Ryohei: What's wrong, Yamamoto?

Ugetsu: That will do.

Yamamoto: Huh?

Yamamoto: You gave me those openings on purpose?

Col: You finally figured it out, maggot.

Yamamoto: Of course.

Yamamoto: A swordsman of your caliber

Yamamoto: wouldn't keep using an attack that leaves your back open.

Ugetsu: The techniques that I've been using

Ugetsu: were all developed on the spot as I was fighting you.

Yamamoto: Huh?

Gokudera: He came up with those amazing techniques on the spot?

Ryohei: That's one crazy fighting instinct.

Yamamoto: Why?

Yamamoto: I wasn't worthy of your true strength?

Ugetsu: That's not it.

Ugetsu: It was a test to see if you would strike a defenseless person.

Ugetsu: After all, I never said that we would be fighting.

Yamamoto: Huh?

Ugetsu: I wish for you to show me your resolve as a Guardian.

Yamamoto: A real fight?

Yamamoto: That's more like it.

Yamamoto: So that's why you looked confused.

Ugetsu: I was attempting to show you my weapon,

: but then events took an unexpected turn.

Yamamoto: So that's what happened...

Ugetsu: And at the time, you were focused on cutting down an enemy.

Ugetsu: And you were prepared to betray your own heart and deal a fatal blow.

Ugetsu: What would that accomplish?

Ugetsu: If you, the Guardian of Rain, were to run dry,

Ugetsu: the bond which ties your companions would become brittle and crumble.

Yamamoto: I see...

Yamamoto: That's why I failed.

Ugetsu: But I truly enjoyed our exchange today.

Ugetsu: I could feel your honest feelings.

Yamamoto: I had a lot of fun experiencing

: how strong you were every time we crossed swords.

Ugetsu: Oh, we get along well!

Tsuna: Th-They're buddy-buddy now.

Col: That would be Requiem Rain, which settles conflict

: and washes everything away, maggot.

Ugetsu: Takeshi Yamamoto.

Ugetsu: I deem you worthy of my inheritance.

Yamamoto: You sure?

Ugetsu: I can entrust you with the position of Guardian of the Rain Ring.

Ugetsu: And I was surprised to learn

: that you have already mastered the art of wielding four swords.

Ugetsu: I now offer my power to aid you in guarding Vongola X.

Reborn: Bring out your Vongola Box, Yamamoto.

Yamamoto: Huh? O-Okay...

Ugetsu: It should serve you well when the situation is dire.

Yamamoto: Thanks, Asari Ugetsu.

: Yamamoto!

Ryohei: You did it, Yamamoto!

Gokudera: Man, don't make us worry.

Tsuna: Yamamoto, this is great!

Yamamoto: Yeah.

Yamamoto: Colonnello, sorry about all the trouble I caused.

Col: You did well.

Col: Good job, maggot!

Yamamoto: Thanks.

Reborn: You understand now, right?

Reborn: The inheritance of the Guardians isn't focused on brute strength.

Reborn: Each element has its own method of testing.

Reborn: So there's no point in getting worked up beforehand.

Tsuna: Yeah.

Yamamoto: Say, I have a favor to ask.

Tsuna: Huh? What?

Yamamoto: Can we huddle up?

Yamamoto: It doesn't feel right otherwise.

Tsuna: Huh?!

Gokudera: Why?!

Gokudera: Your test's already over!

Ryohei: Why not?! Let's do this!

Gokudera: Huh?

Ryohei: Bring it in!

Yamamoto: Vongola! Fight!

All: Yeah!

G: Seriously, I can't believe you gave him a second chance.

G: You've always been a softie.

Ugetsu: Indeed.

G: What's so funny?

Ugetsu: No, I was remembering the past.

Ugetsu: They greatly resemble us.

G: Huh?

Gokudera: Seriously, it took you two chances to pass.

Gokudera: You're too damn soft!

Yamamoto: Yeah, you're right.

Gokudera: This isn't the time to be laughing!

Gokudera: At least you received your inheritance...

Ryohei: What's the problem?

Ryohei: Let's celebrate to the extreme!

Gokudera: Damn it! Let me go, Turf top!

Yamamoto: Now, now. Gokudera. Ryohei.

Tsuna: Yamamoto...

Tsuna: I'm so glad.

Tsuna: I wonder who's up next.

On Screen: ,Monster Tamer Tsuna{\i}!{\i}

Reborn: Tsuna and Elder Rebo set out on a journey to

Caption: Danger

: collect monsters for the sake of defeating Blood-sucking Hibarin.

Reborn: Upon reaching an abandoned factory outside town, they found...

Tsuna: There it is!

Tsuna: A monster!

Reborn: An automaton that was secretly developed by a mad scientist.

Reborn: Now then...

Tsuna: Uh, why are you taking out Mon-Mon Candy?

Reborn: Monster power has been sealed within.

Reborn: So if we feed it to a monster that can no longer move...

Ryohei: To the extreme!

On Screen: ,Automaton Ryohei

Tsuna: Whoa! He moved!

Ryohei: To the extreme!

Tsuna: He's going berserk!

Reborn: This monster has exceptional power.

Reborn: He wants to shake your hand in return for bringing him back to life.

Tsuna: Huh?

Tsuna: Oh, a handshake.

Tsuna: You should have said something.

Tsuna: Ow!

Ryohei: Friends to the extreme!

Tsuna: Ow! Ow! Ow! Lemme go!

Tsuna: I wasn't the one who helped you anyway!

Reborn: It seems that this automaton is unable to control his strength.

Tsuna: Could you stop analyzing the situation and give me a hand?

Reborn: But don't worry.

Reborn: He will soon run out of power.

Tsuna: Ah, I'm saved...

Reborn: And so, the automaton with freak strength, Ryohei, joined our group.

Tsuna: So heavy...

Tsuna: Why do I have to carry him?

Reborn: To be continued.

Caption: Next Episode

Reborn: The next succession test is for Lambo.

Reborn: It'll take place at the amusement park.

Reborn: The first-generation Guardian of the Lightning Ring, Lampo,

: doesn't seem very interested in the test.

Reborn: Something feels wrong about this.

Reborn: That guy might be responsible.

Reborn: Next time on Reborn:

Reborn: Furious Bolt of Lightning.

Reborn: Watch like your life depends on it.

: See you next time!
