Parents' Fullbring
It's been almost a month since the Sawada couple returned to Japan. Iemitsu has completed the handover of his work in Japan and is ready to go to London to take up his new post at any time.
During this month, the Sawada couple completed their Fullbring and have been fighting against Xcution members to gain combat experience. Ichigo and the others occasionally go to the coffee shop to provide the Sawada couple with different combat experiences.
After Billy returned to London, WB did not send anyone over again, but Billy continued to keep in touch with Tsuna through Noelle.
According to Noelle, the West Bureau was very much in favor of cooperating with the East Bureau, but the West Bureau needed to accomplish something more important before that, so the cooperation had to be postponed.
Tsuna was naturally indifferent to this, and the Seireitei hadn't had time to contact the West Bureau recently, so the project's actual launch date was set for two years later.
According to Billy's reply, due to the emergence of the bubble, the West Bureau needs to conduct a large-scale purge of all dragons in society.
Based on past experience, all of the same batch of Fairy Tale Dragon will appear within three years. This means that, apart from the bubble, London may see six more Vasto Lorde- class dragons within three years.
This is a major event. The entire Reverse London is now on high alert. The eight teams under the jurisdiction of Corner Tip are patrolling 24 hours a day, and any Dark Dragon that may cause damage will be eliminated immediately.
It can be said that this is the safest time in Reverse London, because of the highest level of security provided by WB, but it is also the most dangerous time. The Fairy Tale Dragon has combat power that even the captain may not be able to defeat.
This forces Tsuna to consider whether or not to let his parents continue their journey to London. If they were in Japan, Tsuna could still protect them, but in London, he would be too far away to do so.
Tsuna and Tatsuki discussed this issue. Tatsuki suggested that the Sawada couple were not the main force fighting against the Fairy Tale Dragon. If they had sufficient self-defense capabilities, they could let the Sawada couple continue their work.
Tsuna realized that his adoptive father actually enjoyed his job, and it hadn't been easy for him to climb up to the position of head of an overseas branch. So he agreed to Tatsuki's suggestion. Now all that was needed was to test his parents' fighting abilities.
Nana's Mom had just come out of the supermarket. After her training session at Xcution, buying groceries at the supermarket on her way home had become a daily routine for her.
At that moment, Sawada Iemitsu was driving from the company to the supermarket. Today was the day he was to report to the company, and he would be leaving for London in two days.
Iemitsu was in a good mood as he walked down Iemitsu street. He had already called Nana and they were having a big dinner at home that night, so he needed to pick Nana up to go home and cook.
High above, unnoticed by Sawada Iemitsu and Sawada Nana, a group of people were staring at the two dots on their phones that represented Iemitsu and Nana. In about twenty minutes, the two would meet.
"Is this really okay, Tsuna? Isn't this just messing with your uncles and aunts?" Ichigo asked hesitantly.
High above them were Tsuna and his group of friends, along with Nini and Noelle.
"Just playing around? We should show them what a real fight is like, shouldn't we?" Tsuna said.
This was a practical test he had prepared for his parents. Their previous training had always been conducted under safe conditions, and he wanted to see how well they could fight without protection.
"Tsuna, don't worry, A-Xin and I will protect them after we get to London!"
Nini pounded her chest loudly, understanding that Tsuna was worried about their parents' safety and was reassuring them of everything.
"Heh, this isn't just a test for my parents, it's also a test of your training results. If my parents can last for 5 minutes, you'll go on stage. The goal is to annihilate all the Hollows," Tsuna said seriously.
"What are you going to do? Where did you find a dragon that even your uncle and aunt couldn't handle?" Noelle asked. After spending these past few days with them, she had come to understand the Sawada couple's fighting prowess; ordinary Dark Dragon were no match for them at all.
You'll find out soon enough.
Tsuna smiled, flicking two red pills toward the area where Iemitsu and Nana were, and then shooting out two small arrows from his palm, shattering the pills near Iemitsu and Nana.
"What's that?" Nini asked directly.
"This is a special version of Hollow Bait ' that allows you to catch virtual creatures from the Hueco Mundo '."
Tsuna used the same Hollow Bait that Uryū had once used, and using a real Hollow in actual combat was Tsuna's final test of his parents.
As the Hollow Bait shatters, a thin mist already covers the surrounding area, a measure to protect nearby residents.
Sawada Nana stood listlessly at the supermarket entrance, several large bags of groceries for tonight beside her.
Without using her spiritual pressure, it was still a bit difficult for Nana to move so many things, and she was waiting for her little car to arrive.
Correspondingly, Sawada Iemitsu is on his way.
Suddenly, Iemitsu and Nana's expressions changed simultaneously. On this once peaceful street, they sensed the aura of spiritual pressure—not that of a human or Bleach, but that of a Hollow!
Iemitsu slammed on the brakes and pulled the car over to the side of the road. He got out and closed the door cautiously. He was certain there was a ghost nearby, and to prevent ordinary people from being harmed, Iemitsu decided to investigate this strange spiritual pressure.
From Tatsuki's explanation, the Sawada couple knew that their son and his friends would patrol Karakura Town from time to time, but that didn't mean they could immediately get to the scene where the Hollow appeared.
It's one thing to lack the ability, but after learning Fullbring, Sawada Iemitsu felt it was his responsibility to help his juniors fill in the gaps in their knowledge. Of course, he didn't forget to send Tsuna a location, believing that Tsuna would understand his meaning.
Unlike Iemitsu, Nana showed no intention of leaving the supermarket entrance. She simply found a corner to put down the groceries she had bought and stood quietly at the entrance.
Firstly, Nana understood that her safety was the Sawada father and son's biggest concern, and she wouldn't overestimate her abilities to challenge some unknown forces. Secondly, this supermarket was located in a densely populated area nearby, and protecting it was more meaningful than actively exploring it.
Tsuna saw the different choices his parents made, and it was right that Sawada Nana didn't actively seek her out; Tsuna had plenty of ways to lure Utsugi to her.
Let's look at Iemitsu's side first. After turning two corners, he encountered the source of spiritual pressure in a dead-end alley. It was a Hollow with a dog's head, larger than three cows, and it showed a fierce expression the moment it saw Iemitsu.
"Is it you?" Iemitsu asked himself, then answered, "If that's the case, then there's no need to trouble that brat."
Iemitsu flexed his wrist, and a flash of green light appeared on his wedding ring. The ring transformed into a surge of spiritual pressure that enveloped his entire body. Just like Ichigo's Fullbring in the original story, Iemitsu's Fullbring was a clothing-type technique.
An orange work jacket and trousers, a white vest underneath, beige work gloves and boots, a yellow hard hat, and the last rays of light transformed into a weapon in his hand: a pickaxe.
Iemitsu's Fullbring is called Construction Site, which suits his original identity as a construction worker. His equipment is used for defense, and his pickaxe is used for attack.
Just as Iemitsu finished Fullbring, the Hollow-Headed Dog was already lunging at him with its mouth wide open. He was startled; as expected, actual combat was different from training, and the enemy wouldn't give you enough time to prepare.
But that didn't matter. Iemitsu flicked the brim of his helmet with his fingertip, and the helmet flew out, rapidly enlarging in front of him. Its sturdy construction withstood the impact of the dog's head.
Then, with a Fullbring Light, Iemitsu leaped high into the air, his pickaxe radiating spiritual pressure, and slammed it down hard on the Hollow's Visored.
The sharp steel chisel on the pickaxe easily pierced through the Visored. Iemitsu effortlessly and comfortably killed the enemy who had once chased him so relentlessly, the Hollow.
"Is that all?" Iemitsu was somewhat incredulous. This was his first real battle, and the victory seemed to have come rather easily.
However, the Hollow's spiritual pressure did not end. Just after defeating this dog-headed Hollow, Iemitsu sensed the presence of another source of spiritual pressure. With his confidence greatly boosted, Iemitsu hurriedly rushed towards that location.
Remembering his principle of not being noticed by passersby, Iemitsu did not directly step on the Fullbring Light to fly. However, Iemitsu, who was in the excitement of the battle, obviously did not notice that there was not a single pedestrian on the roadside.
"You did a great job, Uncle, it was efficient and clean." Ichigo nodded approvingly.
"It's just a low-level Hollow, let's see how it goes." Tsuna wasn't surprised that his father could succeed so easily. He turned his gaze to his Mom, who had already lured the Hollows under the influence of Illusion to the supermarket entrance.
A series of thunderous footsteps approached, and Nana turned her head to see a group of five Minotaur. As if their eyes were blinded by the color red, they charged madly toward Nana.
Like Iemitsu, Nana activated her Fullbring with her wedding ring. However, unlike Iemitsu, Nana's Fullbring was not a clothing-type Fullbring; instead, a string of small props was hung on her waist after the Fullbring was completed.
Pots, pans, knives, kitchen utensils, and even a portable gas stove—it's practically a top-of-the-line kitchen pretend play set.
Kitchen Master, this is Sawada Nana's Fullbring.
Nana calmly picked up an apron and put it on. The apron emitted light and blocked the first bull's charge. Then, she picked up a kitchen knife and flashed past, dismembering the raging bull's head in an instant.
Then we see Nana throw out a large pot, which lands right at the feet of the second cow. The cow is trapped, and what awaits it is the heat of the portable gas stove.
Nana picked up a frying pan with her other hand, and with the pan in her left hand and the knife in her right, she quickly killed two more bull-headed monsters with a few slaps and chops.
Seeing its four kin instantly killed, the last Hollow's survival instinct broke through Tsuna's Illusion control, and it turned and fled.
Nana had no intention of chasing after them. She calmly put down the cutting board, which immediately created a square barrier around it as it hit the ground.
In the end, the bull-headed monster didn't even have a chance to escape; it turned into beef on Nana's cutting board.
Seeing his Mom's performance, Tsuna nodded to himself. It seemed that Sawada Nana had basically mastered the use of all her Fullbring items.
In Tsuna's view, the upper limit of the Fullbring of Kitchen Master is far higher than that of Construction Site. Various kitchen tools have different abilities and can be pieced together to create various possibilities, while Construction Site, in a sense, is just a numerical ability.
This is why Sawada Nana spent more time practicing Fullbring than Iemitsu. It's not that Iemitsu's combat ability is stronger than Nana's, but rather that in terms of the difficulty of operation, their Fullbring are not on the same level.
"See, isn't this easy? What else do you have to worry about?" Nini felt proud seeing Iemitsu and Nana's outstanding performances.
"That's nothing, the important part is yet to come," Tsuna said calmly.
Two cracks tore open in the sky Karakura Town, and two enormous cloaked masked monsters squeezed out from the cracks. These were the main course of this combat training: the Gillian, Gillians.
The special Hollow Bait was used to lure out two Gillian, but because Tsuna cleared out the Forest of the Hollows, the number of Gillian decreased, and it took quite a while before he was able to catch one and bring it to the World of the Living.
Nini and Noelle immediately looked serious. No wonder Tsuna had sent both of them onto the field together; Gillian was a monster even they weren't confident they could handle...
