Where Was My Mafia Boss Script?

At Karakura Elementary School, when Sawada Tsunayoshi entered the classroom as a transfer student and saw that familiar orange-haired classmate, he truly couldn't keep his expression under control. How could he possibly fail to recognize that familiar face?

Ichigo Kurosaki! Karakura Town!

So Sawada Tsunayoshi hadn't transmigrated into the world of Reborn! at all, but into the world of Bleach. Considering that he had been rewatching the Bleach anime before transmigrating, ending up in the world of Bleach was perfectly reasonable...

My ass it was!

This was the world of Bleach. Unlike in Reborn!, where he could basically live safely as long as he kept his head down and stayed away from the mafia, this world had Hollows—monsters with white masks that could decide to hunt him at any moment.

What was more, Sawada Tsunayoshi was currently in a place called Karakura Town, one of the rare spiritually dense locations in the Bleach anime. In other words, all sorts of bizarre things would happen here in Karakura Town.

He had clearly been promised a mafia boss script, where he only needed to develop steadily and would soon take the seat of mafia BOSS. Yet now he had ended up in a world where he had to fight monsters. The key issue was that ordinary people couldn't even see those monsters. And the most dangerous thing wasn't even the creatures called Hollows, but the man known as the Progenitor of the Quincy, the guy who spent all day thinking about destroying the world and returning the Three Worlds to their origin.

In the world of Reborn!, lacking strength at worst meant getting beaten. In the world of Bleach, if he encountered a Hollow without any strength, he would really die.

Sawada Tsunayoshi no longer had the mind to listen to the teacher introduce him as a transfer student. All he could think about was how to convince his dad to leave Karakura Town. Anywhere would do, as long as they were no longer in Karakura Town. Then Ichigo Kurosaki, the Child of the Plane, could handle the rest.

But his dad had worked himself to the bone to earn this branch manager position. Wouldn't asking him to leave now be a little too heartless?

As Sawada Tsunayoshi thought this, his body followed the teacher's instructions and headed toward an empty seat at the back of the classroom. As luck would have it, the seat beside him belonged to the Child of the Plane from Bleach, Ichigo Kurosaki.

At this age, Ichigo Kurosaki was practically a little sun. The moment he saw Sawada Tsunayoshi, he smiled brightly and held out his hand to Tsuna.

"Hello, I'm Ichigo Kurosaki. Please take care of me."

"Oh, hello." Sawada Tsunayoshi came back to his senses and shook his hand. "I'm Sawada Tsunayoshi."

"I know. The teacher just introduced you..."

Sawada Tsunayoshi no longer had the mind to listen to Ichigo Kurosaki speak. A voice sounded in his mind.

[Detecting Bleach world character...]

[Talent copy in progress...]

[Talent copy complete...]

[Talent ability conversion in progress...]

[Talent ability has been converted into origin power...]

[Talent conversion complete. Have a pleasant journey. Goodbye!]

Tears welled up in Sawada Tsunayoshi's eyes. How many years had it been? He had once fantasized about receiving a cheat after transmigrating, yet it had never appeared. He couldn't ignite the Dying Will Flame like in the original Reborn! either, which was why the instant he saw Ichigo Kurosaki, his first thought had been to run away.

But now, his cheat had finally arrived. Ichigo Kurosaki's talent? As the person in the world of Bleach who possessed the most mixed powers, Ichigo's talent was unquestionably formidable.

"Come on, Ichigo! Why are you still holding the new student's hand?"

A crisp female voice rang out beside him. The next moment, she separated Sawada Tsunayoshi's hand from Ichigo Kurosaki's, then naturally took Tsuna's hand in hers.

"Hello, I'm Arisawa Tatsuki. Nice to meet you."

She was a somewhat boyish girl, very cute, with neat short hair that made her look fresh and capable.

"Tatsuki, it wasn't me..."

Ichigo Kurosaki wanted to explain himself, but Tatsuki cut him off. "All right, class is starting..."

Sawada Tsunayoshi sat down at his seat. Ichigo Kurosaki was beside him, while the girl named Arisawa Tatsuki sat directly in front of him.

Arisawa Tatsuki... Tsuna remembered. She was one of Ichigo's friends. The two had known each other since childhood and had been very close, but after Ichigo Kurosaki's mother died, he gradually became withdrawn, and the distance between them grew. Even so, they remained classmates and friends all the way through high school.

Speaking of Ichigo Kurosaki's mother, Masaki Kurosaki's death, Sawada Tsunayoshi quickly ran through Bleach's timeline in his mind. No matter how he thought about it, the timeline of the Reborn! world he had painstakingly sorted out before was completely useless.

Masaki Kurosaki had died because of Yhwach's The Auswählen. As a Quincy, Masaki Kurosaki had all her power taken back after the Progenitor of the Quincy subjected her to The Auswählen. On top of that, she had encountered a Hollow at the time, which was why she died.

In Bleach, Ichigo became a Soul Reaper in high school, then fought the Thousand-Year Blood War three years later...

According to the Quincy song, the defeated Quincy King would regain his heartbeat after 900 years, regain his sanity after 90 years, and regain his power after 9 years...

Based on that, Yhwach's The Auswählen would take place six years before the story began, when Ichigo was in his third year of elementary school. Ichigo had only just started his second year of elementary school now, which meant that in one year, Ichigo would lose his mom.

Thinking of this, Sawada Tsunayoshi frantically called for the system in his heart. Yet no matter how Tsuna called, the system gave no response. Only a translucent interface floated before his eyes.

There were only five sections on the system interface. The first was Sawada Tsunayoshi, the second was Soul Reaper, the third was Hollow, the fourth was Quincy, and the fifth was Fullbring. Sections two through five were all blacked out, as though something had erased them.

One piece of bad news and one piece of good news. The bad news was that the system seemed to have vanished. Even when Tsuna secretly tried calling it in the restroom during break, he couldn't summon it. The good news was that before disappearing, the system had copied the strongest talent in the world of Bleach for him: he possessed all four types of power—Soul Reaper, Hollow, Quincy, and Fullbring.

Looking through his talent interface, Tsuna looked at Arisawa Tatsuki, who was sitting in front of him. If he remembered correctly, the system seemed to copy the talent of the first Bleach world character he encountered. If Arisawa Tatsuki had been the one holding his hand today, wouldn't the system have copied Arisawa Tatsuki's talent instead?

Arisawa Tatsuki's talent couldn't exactly be called poor. Later on, under Ichigo's influence, she could also see souls and Soul Reapers. But by the late stages of Bleach, Arisawa Tatsuki had already vanished from the story.

As he let his thoughts run wild, dismissal soon arrived.

"Eh, why did Sawada run off so fast?" Arisawa Tatsuki asked as she watched Sawada Tsunayoshi's rapidly departing figure. "Ichigo, where are you going after school? Want to practice boxing together?"

Arisawa Tatsuki had originally wanted to get to know the new classmate better, but Sawada had bolted the moment school ended. Now she could only invite Ichigo to hang out. Tatsuki's family ran a karate dojo, and Ichigo had taken quite a few beatings from her because of it.

This time was no exception. Ichigo, who had not yet become withdrawn, was still easily persuaded. If nothing unexpected happened, he was about to get beaten up by Tatsuki again.

Sawada Tsunayoshi hurried home, doing his best not to look around on the way, his heart full of unease. Without even greeting mom, he shut himself in his room.

After casually making an excuse to send away mom, who had come to check on him, Sawada Tsunayoshi forced himself to calm down and recalled what he had seen on the way home.

On the walk home alone, Tsuna had seen three souls wandering the streets. It had scared the daylights out of him, a firm believer in materialism. Fortunately, this was the world of Bleach, which allowed Tsuna to regain his composure.

Only then did Tsuna come back to his senses and begin studying his talent panel.

Back at school, Tsuna had already considered his path forward. According to the talents displayed on the system interface, he had the aptitude for four kinds of power and could choose any one direction to cultivate.

But in reality, he did not have many options. Both Soul Reaper and Quincy training required someone to guide him at the beginning. Tsuna did not think those old hands would believe that a little brat had the talent to train, nor did he intend to seek help from wolves while he had no cards of his own.

Of the two powers remaining, Hollow power was extremely unstable in the original work. Trying it rashly without anyone's help might instead cost him his life. That left only one option: Fullbring.

Sawada Tsunayoshi vaguely remembered that Fullbring drew out the souls within matter and controlled physical objects through its use, allowing one to use nearby objects as aids and display abilities beyond one's physical limits.

Fullbring was a power born of love. Only an object one deeply loved could have its soul drawn out, controlled, and transformed, allowing one to complete their Fullbring.

Judging by the fact that he could see souls, Tsuna possessed a certain amount of spiritual pressure. He poured himself a glass of water and tried to imitate the way Kugo Ginjo had taught Ichigo, using Reishi to control the soul in the water.

Sawada Tsunayoshi held the glass with both hands. Specks of light flowed from his hands into the glass; those should be Reishi. It didn't seem difficult. Tsuna tried to rotate the Reishi, using it as a bridge to turn the unfamiliar power within the water—the water's soul.

Gradually, the water in the glass formed a spiral. Tsuna had succeeded. He had already found the trick to Fullbring.

Tsuna lay sprawled across the desk, watching the swirling water. He understood that the water in this glass certainly was not something he deeply loved. What object did he truly love?

A silver necklace slipped out as Tsuna moved, and a ring fell before him. It was the Sky Ring he had always kept as a memento. If he had to name an object he deeply loved, then this Sky Ring, which he carried with him at all times, certainly had a place.

Tsuna clasped the Sky Ring in his palm and used the same method he had used to control the water, guiding the soul within the Sky Ring.

Faintly, Tsuna felt excitement rising in his heart. In the world of Reborn!, this ring had unquestionably been nothing more than an ordinary crafted accessory. But this was the world of Bleach. Fullbring could draw out the souls dwelling within objects and grant Sawada Tsunayoshi a power that belonged to him.

Ignite, Dying Will Flame!
