A king was what he was. At least, that's what they had told him when he was young. He doesn't remember nor understood what they were talking about at that time. Namimori is a town where people could retain memories of their past lives from parallel worlds when they reach puberty. He could remember crying after all his classmates had regained their memories. He was the only one who remembers nothing, feeling more and more like a freak. The town comforted him when he couldn't remember, asserting that it was because of this being his first reincarnation and that puberty didn't end till the age of 16 so he has plenty of time. Right?
The name he has now is Sawada Tsunayoshi. A boy who couldn't do anything simple like walk without tripping, but still loved for his smiles and compassion. A boy who was bullied by fellow classmates for receiving all the adult's attention. A boy who didn't understand the reasons of everyone's love and attention. A boy who just wanted to be seen as himself.
In his past life, he was the Prince of their small and humble land called Minawari and later King of the Nami kingdom. They had given him the title of Keishi of the Sky for his compassion and wisdom are unlimited just like the sky. Also because of Keishi's flame, though the people didn't know how to spark the Dying Will Flames they do know of it. Little Tsuna could remember how their eyes beamed with admiration and respect for the man as they told him stories of Keishi, it had made his 5-year-old self-eager to remember that life. The life as their Prince then as their King.
But he never did.
Their feelings for him never cease one bit, they still love and care for him. But it wasn't for Sawada Tsunayoshi, no, never. It was always directed at Keishi of the Sky. Tsuna never wanted that, he wanted them to see him for himself of today as Sawada Tsunayoshi, not some Prince or King. He never understood how they felt because he doesn't remember. He doesn't remember Keishi's life, adventures, wisdom, friends, family, people, experience with wars that former Kings had left him with, or the tears spilled when he had to send his people to die in the war.
HE DOESN'T REMEMBER!
So why wouldn't they see that he just wants to live his life of today instead of his past life?
What happens when the strongest mafia famiglia comes onto the stage demanding for their successor? What will happen when Reborn and the others come to Namimori to meet the 14 years old heir? Will Namimori allow the mafia to take their King when they had been waiting for him for so long? Who will Tsuna end up choosing, the mafia or Keishi's people?
I'm still deciding what roles the Guardians and the other mafioso has to do with Tsuna in his past life. Guardians might be knights or something. Varia might be assassins group that is under the Nami kingdom. The Sky users will be either in a royal family or ruler of some land. But not everyone will be close to Tsuna like they are in canon because that's that Mary Sue for me in a way. It'll be a fun surprise who each person is once they remember it themselves.
Well, please review and tell me what you want/think each person should be.
