"W-What the heck?-! Scales?-!" Romario cried. "Are they even human?-!" Kusakabe added.

"With the opening of the box implanted inside my body, the Open Carnage Box," Daisy stated, "It transformed my body into a box weapon, turning me into a super human."

"Becoming a box weapon…?" Cosma mumbled. Hibari was unfazed, but inside he too was kind of shocked.

"That was rather surprising…" Dino said, "Not sure about the 'super' part, but you sure aren't human appearance-wise."

"Dino-san?-!"

The blonde boss immediately recognised that voice, "Is that you, Tsuna?-!"

"I'm glad you're safe! Well, were there any enemies at Nami-Middle?"

"Yeah, there are these two called Daisy and Marigold that look like monsters." Dino stated, "How are things over there? Is Yuni safe?"

"Yeah… but… Zakuro destroyed the base… Squalo and Cleio stayed behind and helped us escape, but… they…"

"What?-!" Dino cried.

"They're that strong…?-!" Cosma mumbled.

"Now we're taking refuge at Kawahira Real Estate on 5th Street."

"Okay."

"Tsuna let me talk to him for a second." Korin's voice said, "Dino-san; did the two take forms of animal humanoids when they opened a box implanted in their body?"

"Eh? How do you know?"

"I found notes written by my future self here. In it states most of the research and breakthroughs that he created over the years, as well as the technology for fusing human and box ani-"

"Hold on, Korin." The energy around Daisy and Marigold spiked, "You're talking to your comrades, aren't you?" Daisy said, "And is Yuni-sama there too, right?"

"Is there something wrong, Dino-san?"

"Tell us where she is!-!" The two flew forward at the Cavallone boss.

"I'll call you back, Korin." Dino stated, as leaped up to dodge it, just as Daisy spun in the air and jumped off the building's wall and flew right at him. 'Hayai!' He ignites his ring, "At this rate, I'll have to give it my all!" He opened his box, "Skudelia!" his sky horse came out, but this time with sky flame wings, making it look more like a Pegasus, "Pegaso Super Salto Voltante!"

"A Pegasus!" Cosma cried. "W-Wings of flame!" Kusakabe cried.

"Anything that touches the wings will be torn to shreds," Romario explains, "and at the same time, will burst into flames and reduced to ashes."

The two was cried out in shock as the winged horse flew up and cut their right and left arms right off, "To be honest, I don't like attacking woman." Dino stated, "Don't bear a grudge against me."

"As I thought, that thing just now…" Daisy stated, "We know that."

"Hm?"

"O-Oi! L-Look at that!" Kusakabe cried, as the two torn arms from the two starts growing and wrapped themselves around the horse, "The torn arms are wrapping around the horse!"

'That arm should have been destroyed by Pegaso Super Salto Voltante…' Dino thought in shock, 'what's going on?-!'

The two flew all over in the air, just as their arms regenerated within seconds, "Their arms grew back!" Kusakabe cried.

"Excellent!" Dino stated, igniting his whip in sky flames, "Bring it on! Personally, I enjoy direct contact in a battle rather than a battle of box weapons."

"Us too."

"Take this!" Dino strikes his whip all around the area, "Salto Volante Come Luce(Jumping Flying Fast Like Light)!" the whip flew all over, like countless orange light strings whipping all over with devastating result as the ground is broken apart with the attack.

"That boss," Romario said, "he intends to finish it off with the final manoeuver."

Daisy was taken by shock but Marigold just flew in without fear, "Up, down, right, down," The lizard woman mumbled as she dodged the whip with surprised great ease, "front, left, right, down, right, up, down, left, left, right, down, left, down, right, down, left, up, up, left, right, down, down, up, up, right, left, down, up…"

'Her movements are way past the level of instinct!' Dino thought in shock, 'Don't tell me that she has already found a way around this attack?-!' In lizard lady's figure, Dino saw the only albino that could possibly done this, 'D-Don't tell me!'

Marigold wrapped her tail around the blonde boss and holds it at a death grip, "Daisy!" She shouted, just as the other lizard humanoid strikes right at the gut, much to everyone's shock.

'Byakuran, that bastard…' Dino thought grimly, 'He must have come across my attack in a parallel world already, and then analysed my movements and fed the data to the Funeral Wreaths… Squalo… Cleio… You guys must have been dealt with the same blow…'

The lizard man's hand pierced through the man's stomach, "Boss/Dino-san!" Romario and Kusakabe cried.

"Looks like we have to hurt you more to get Yuni-sama's whereabouts out of you," Marigold stated, "Daisy, dig his intestines out."

"Already on it." Daisy stated, his hand squirming inside the stomach, with Dino grunted out in pain as the blood stains the man's shirt and jacket. But just as they did, a tonfa hits the lizard man's face while a fist found its way to the lizard woman's face, causing her to release her grip on the blonde man and sends them flying towards the wall with a crash.

"G-Guh…" Marigold and Daisy grunted as they got up.

"Oi, you lot."

They looked down to find Hibari and Cosma standing by Dino, their weapons ready.

"You better stop wrecking havoc in Nami-Middle." Hibari stated, "ALL of you deserved to be punished." He turned and kicked Dino out to the sidelines, "You better not hold me back, herbivore."

"I can say the same to you." Cosma said.

"Kyo-san! What are you doing?-!" Kusakabe cried.

"Hehe… looks like I owe him one."

"Dino-san?"

"He saved me in his own twisted way…" Dino laughed, "Even Cosma is knows that… They are just like the Cloud duo from the first generation…"

"You mean the first generation Cloud Knight and Cloud Guardian?"

"Yeah." Dino stated, "The first generation Cloud Guardian and his partner were at the leaders of an international secret intelligence bureau. They only trust each other, no one else, walking a different path as the rest of the Family. But in the event that the first generation boss and his partner vision of justice clashed with their, they defeated more enemies and shown more kindness than anyone else."

"Let's go, Roll/Bal."Hibari and Cosma said, "Cambio Forma," their two cloud hedgehogs squealed as they turned into two small purple glowing orbs and descends on Hibari's finger and Cosma's right bracer, the two orbs glowing brighter.

The two Sun Funeral Wreaths was taken by surprise, just as the rest.

"T-That's Kyo-san's and Cosma-san's…" Kusakabe said in shock.

"Yeah, that's Kyoya's and Cosma's Vongolia Box." Dino stated, just as the orbs re-materialised into a black handcuffs with a purple flames in one of the cuffs' edge and spikes in the other, the other transformed Cosma's artefact into a right black bracer over a black glove that goes up to her right elbow that has a elbow guard, spikes on its bracer, the back of the gloves and fingers, and the elbow guard, "Known as the independent guardian and sword duo that walk their own path like a drifting cloud, Alaude's Handcuff and Cosmos' Spiked Glove."

"An h-handcuff and an s-spiked glove?-!" Kusakabe cried.

"Have you two prepared yourself?" Hibari said with a smirk.

The two lizard humanoid lands down on the ground, 'A handcuff and a single glove and bracer…' Daisy thought, 'I see… those are the Vongolia Boxes of the Vongolia Cloud… Although the handcuff is used to capture criminals, those thorns should have the ability to kill. Same goes to the gloves, though the spike on the elbow doesn't seem to be capable to attack… Byakuran-sama hasn't given me any information about them," He looked at Marigold, who shook her head, "Looks like Marigold doesn't know anything either. It doesn't matter, a handcuff or glove…' "It's good for us."

"Just wait, we'll get you soon enough." Cosma stated; her right gauntlet up while a hidden blade silts out of her left bracer.

The four then sprints towards each other, them against each other's neck. Sparks flew as their fists/weapons clashed with each other, at one instance, Daisy strikes at Hibari's face just as Marigold aimed for Cosma's left shoulder. At that moment, the prefect captured Daisy's wrist while Cosma stabs into the wrist.

"I'm not going to let go/Got you." Cosma and Hibari said as the two strikes with their right weapon. The two smirked as they dislodged their captured wrists, shocking them just as they regenerated them just as did. And with their healed arm, they punched right at the prefect's face and his partner's gut, sending them crashing into the building.

"W-What on earth was that?-!" Romario cried, "They cut their arm off by themselves!"

"K-Kyo-san!" Kusakabe cried, "Cosma-san!"

"Lizard's self-amputation…!" Dino realised, "Lizards can reproduce their tails that they cut off themselves…"

"But isn't it too fast for reproducing?" Romario stated.

"No, it should be possible if you think about his ring's attribution."

"His ring is the attribute of the sun…" Romario realised, "Ah! I see! The sun attributes possessed active properties! It's the super active cells!"

"So a sun-based humanoid animal?"

"Korin?-!" Dino cried.

"I heard the entire thing from the radio." Korin stated, "A super human that can break out their arms and regenerates just as fast, huh? Doesn't seem too good."

"Do you have any idea of defeating them?"

"Actually, I have one question. Does one of them have a magic symbol on his or her body?"

"Symbol?"

"A circle with insignias inside, some unique figure, an ancient letter; anything like that?"

Dino looked closely, noticed a circle tattoo in just above Marigold's breasts, a dark yellow tattoo of a circle with the symbol of the Millefiore sun, "Yes, there's some kind of tattoo on her chest. It is some kind like the sun symbol."

"Hang on." Sounds of pages flipping over like crazy, before stopping and Korin's voice come back, "Okay, I found it. That is on Marigold, right? That circle actually boosted her power by forcefully cause her body to absorb magic energy into her body. I think all of the Mare Knights have similar tattoos, but Marigold's improved her healing rate by at least twice and her overall strength and other physical abilities are doubled as well."

"So she is like some animal humanoid superwoman?" Kusakabe said.

"I didn't know you know about superwoman."

"Never mind that, are there any other description?" Dino asked.

"Well, in order to defeat her, you must eliminate the source, which is the circle. Not by cutting the skin but through removing the spell alone. If you hurt any of the skin, it would be activate a fail-safe that causes her to goes into frenzy and destroy everything she can see."

"Is there any way to do that?" Cosma asked.

"Don't worry about that. According to the notes, my future self specially induced every Vongolia Box with magic removers' abilities. Just hit the circle with your Vongolia Box and you'll break the spell."

"The Open Carnage Box is the multiplication of abilities." Daisy tells them, "It's the multiplication of box animals' special abilities and the user's abilities. We can create those abilities that exceed limit of any living. Thus we could do this." The two clouds was confused for a second but then a hand just grew out from the severed wrist and grabbed in their necks just as the rest of the upper body starts to grow out.

"The torn arm is creating a body!-!" Kusakabe cried, "Can it reproduce a whole body from just that arm?-!"

The two punched the created body away, leaving the prefect with only the handcuff and the human database with her right spiked glove. "That's a pity though." Marigold taunted, "Your Vongolia Boxes are the worst match for us. Just give up and tell us where's Yuni-sama is."

"I don't need it."

"Eh?"

Hibari just raised both his hands, with two handcuffs twirling around both his index finger, "I don't need a tonfa if it's so useless."

"That's the spirit, Kyoya." Cosma said, her other hand rose up to show two of her same spiked gloves, "If it won't do, don't use it."

"Huh? The handcuff and the glove are…" Daisy said in shock.

"Now there are two without notice…" Kusakabe stated in shock.

"I'm going to arrest all of you, for damaging school property." Hibari added, with now four handcuffs spinning around his finger.

"Four now?-!" Romario cried.

"What does they intend to do?" Dino stated.

"That's some magic trick. But no matter what you do, that weapon is completely useless against us, Cloud Guardian and Knight." Marigold said, her dashed straight forward, "Daisy, I'm leaving that prefect to you."

"I should warn you first." Cosma said, "The weapon I was using… It was an artefact." She punched right into the floor, a magic circle just appears under the flying Marigold, thorns sprung up from the ground, stabbing every single part of the woman's body.

"I think the same…" Hibari stated, just as he dodged the incoming punches from Daisy and managed to locked on his arms, "If it's just ten or twenty." His ring glows with purple light, and handcuffs just starts to duplicate it up the lizard man's arms. It continues to copy itself until it secures Daisy in a full body cuff, trapping his limps completely. Chains connect the physical restrains to the skylark's hands.

"The handcuffs have become like physical restrains!" Kusakabe cried, "Plus the formation of thorns from the ground!"

"The breeding properties of the 'cloud' attribute far surpass the speed of their self amputation!" Dino stated, "Even so… for it to form like these…"

"It's over." Cosma stated, "For hurting Dino, you deserve such pains." She placed her hand on the thorns, her ring glows as more thorns pierced right through her arms, the lizard woman cried out in pain.

"I-Impossible!" Daisy cried, "W-We didn't hear anything about this from Byakuran-sama!"

"You sounded like you want to die though," Hibari stated, "I won't allow it to be as easy like that. Let's tighten it up." He pulled on the chains and the cuffs just tighten around him, the sound of his bones breaking and blood gushing out from the sides, with the victim crying out in pain.

"I-It's tightening!" Daisy cried out, "I haven't heard about this from Byakuran-sama! That the handcuff becomes like this!"

'It's just like you speculated, Irie Shouichi…' Dino thought, 'The Vongolia Boxes that had never been made in the other parallel worlds haven't been discovered by Byakuran! It is the only thing that could possibly defeat him!'

"D-Darn it…" Marigold grunted, "I was so close…" tears flows out of her reptile eyes, 'he promised…' a picture of a young boy laughing appears in her head, 'I'm sorry… I'm so sorry…'

"Farewell." Cosma said coldly, punching in the ground, a gigantic thorn came out from the ground and destroys all the other thorns as well as punctures the circle on her chest; the magic circle broke as she falls to the ground unconscious, tears still flowing down her eyes. Daisy too fell down on the ground, still in restrains and unconscious from the intense pain.

"You're unexpectedly woeful." Hibari stated as he kneel down near the collapsed Daisy, "The reason you can't die even though you want to is that the active sun flame in your body right?" He took the sun ring from his fingers, "I'm confiscating this."

"You… really is an idiot." Cosma sighed, kneeling near the collapsed Marigold, "There are other ways to do this…" She took the ring from her fingers.

The two changed back to normal.

"If you take away the Mare Rings," Dino stated, "even the real Funeral Wreaths and Mare Knights are just normal human beings."

"You did it, Kyo-san!" Kusakabe cheered, "As expected from the Discipline Committee's Chairman!"

"Nicely done, Kyoya." Cosma said to him with a small smile.

"Shut up, herbivore." Hibari spat, but the woman just giggled at his stubborn nature.

Meanwhile, back at the Kawahira realtors…

"Korin, Tsuna, you there?"

"Ah! This voice!" Tsuna cried.

"Bucking Bronco, is it?-!" Gokudera mumbled.

"I see." Korin mumbled, "Oh, is that so! That's good."

"Is that true?-!" Tsuna cried.

"What did he say?" Nerio asked.

"He said that Hibari-san and Cosma-san have defeated Daisy and Marigold of the real Funeral Wreaths!" Tsuna announced.

"Whoa! That's great!" Sol cried. "They did it!" Kasumi cheered with Mikuri.

"The present crisis has gone." Reborn said.

"The enemy is up against the wall now!" Gokudera said.

"It's alright now." Bianchi sighed, "With this, Yuni can't be found."

"Man, it was a close one." Nerio sighed.

"Well, I'll be leaving now." Kawahira tells them, "I'm going for a trip and shutting this shop for a while so feel free to use anything as you like."

"EH?-!" Tsuna cried, "Suddenly you just want to go?-! Please wait!"

"I haven't heard anything about you yet." Reborn stated, "Who are you?"

"Huh? Oh, I'm the son of the old lady who owned this shop and died three years ago." He tells them, "My name is Kawahira, though."

"No! That's not what we're asking for!"

"Why do you have this, Kawahira-san?" Korin asked, holding his future self's notes up.

"Oh, that. It was left here by him." Kawahira stated, "He said something about helping his past self as much as he can."

"Is that it?" Korin asked again.

"Yup, that's about it." Kawahira stated, "You people owe me for this one. See ya." He went out without another word.

"Tch." Reborn clicked his tongue.

"Ah! Oi!" Tsuna cried, "More importantly, what're you doing?-! He helped us and you pointed your gun at him!"

"I don't like him for some reason." Reborn stated.

"That's it?-!" Korin cried.

"By the way, Korin, what is that stack of papers you've been holding?" The hitman asked, "What's in it?"

"This?" Korin said, "It's just notes from my future self. Inside stated all of the research and experiments that he has done over the year. It was inside these notes that I was able to help Hibari-san and Materro-san defeat Daisy and Marigold."

"R-Research notes?" Tsuna asked.

"Oh, right." Nerio remembered, "His future self was a professor."

"Then, what's inside the notes?" Reborn asked.

"Not much. Just some theories he has been working on." Korin said, flipping over the pages, "There are some on the Open Carnage Box but that's about it." He then flipped to one page, "Hm? This is weird."

"What is it?"

"This is the manual on how to control the Yurei-me…" Korin stated.

"Yur-what?" Sol asked.

"Let me take a look." Nerio walked over and peered into the page, "Oh, this are descriptions on certain ways to use it! Some techniques, some abilities that are waiting to be discovered! This is awesome!" Nerio pats on Korin's back, "Your future self must be quite a researcher! From an idiot to a head professor, that's something I never expected!"

"I'm not an idiot!" Korin shouted, but then sighed and looked at the notes, "You're right though… There are some techniques on this…"

The Mist Knight then took the stack and put it on the table. He then took out a piece of paper and start writing down, "I'm writing these down and bringing them with me!"

"I can just take the notes back with me, you know."

"Yamamoto, you're really going back to the base no matter what, huh?"

"Yup." Yamamoto tells the brunette. The baseball ace has decided to go back to the Vongolia underground base to check if Squalo and Cleio are still all right down there. Adhira has decided to go with him, despite to the girls' protest, saying that she needs to go back to find Cleio. Giannini, Spanner and Bianchi agreed to company them down, each of them have their own reasons for going.

"You guys better be careful, okay?" Korin stated.

"Of course." Yamamoto laughed.

They opened a small gap in the sliding door, "I don't sense any hostility… Looks like its clear." Yamamoto stepped out of the door, "Well then, we'll be off! Take care of Yuni. Lambo's sleeping, but tell him bye for me."

"Good luck." Korin tells them.

"A-Ano…" Yuni stuttered, but then Bianchi held her cheeks, "You don't need to thank us. We are doing this of our own volition. You girls take care of Yuni as well, all right?"

"Hai!" The girl chorused.

"T-Thank you very much! A-Ah…"

Everyone broke into laughter.

"Lambo-san is going to play with you guys as well!" Lambo suddenly shouted, him appearing at the door, "Where are we going, Adhira?-!"

"L-Lambo!" Tsuna cried.

"Hm?" Korin then noticed something wrong.

"You little…" Gokudera cursed as he strangled the cow kid, "Why do you only wake up when it suits you?-!"

"And we're not exactly going to 'play'…" Yamamoto tells him.

"All the tension's gone now…" Nerio laughed.

"Hm?" Mikuri noticed Korin all tensed up, "Is something wrong, Korin?"

"Ah! No, it's nothing." Korin lied, before back into a thought pose, 'What was that feeling before… Plus that…'

"Well then, we leave Yuni in your hands." Bianchi said as they walked off.

"Take care!" Tsuna called out, just as Gokudera toss Lambo to the ground, startling Kyoko; but just as he was about to close the door, he noticed something, 'Just now… did I… No, I must be imagining things…'

"What are you spacing out for?" Reborn said, "We need to discuss our next move."

"R-Right." Tsuna stuttered, but then noticed Korin's expression, 'Korin-san too…?'

"Close the door, Tsuna." Reborn repeated.

"A-Ah! R-Right!" He quickly closed the door, "How are things going, Yamamoto?"

"I can't believe Giannini built an entrance to the base in a place like this!" Yamamoto's voice buzzed in, "Looks like we can get in, no problem."

Tsuna breathed a sigh of relief, "Looks like they're going to get into the base just fine."

"Dino-nii and Cosma-nee say that they'll be staying at the school for a while since Hibari-san isn't coming back." Fuuta tells them.

"I see…" Tsuna sighed, before Lambo's noisy rattling and running under him starts to annoy him, "Could be quiet, Lambo?-!"

The cow kid sticks his tongue out, "No way!" He then jumped out of Haru's arms and ran towards the Sky Arcobaleno, "Yuni~ Play with me!"

"Oh, for the love of… Stop annoying Yuni, would you?-!" Tsuna shouted, but then noticed Yuni looking rather sick, "Yuni?"

"You're not looking too good." Reborn said worriedly, "Is something wrong?"

"Her face is all blue!" Lambo shouted.

"Chrome-chan isn't looking too good either…" Kyoko said worriedly.

"That's weird." Korin said as he put his hands on Chrome's forehead, "Do you feel giddy in anyway?"

"N-No… That's not it… Boss Knight…" Chrome panted.

"Eh?"

"There's someone… something nearby…" Yuni panted.

"Huh?-!" Tsuna was caught by surprise, "An enemy?-!"

"Battle positions, everyone!" Sol shouted, "Seal off the entrances!"

"Right!" Basil, Ryohei, Gokudera, Nerio and Sol ran towards the entrances. The girls who could fight all went over to Yuni. "It could be Zakuro coming back for us!" Basil stated. "Yeah, sounds possible." Gokudera said.

"No… It's closer…" Yuni panted, "Much closer…"

"Closer?" Korin wondered, "D-Don't tell me…"

"Boss! The cow-boy!" Chrome cried.

"Lambo?" Tsuna said, looking at the cow kid, "What about him?"

"Mikuri, Kasumi-chan! Get Yuni away from Lambo!" Korin shouted.

"Lambo-chan?"

"Oh, looks like my disguise isn't perfect." Lambo suddenly said in a deeper voice, "But it was good enough… Attacking from outside and having you running away is really tiresome, so I took a different approach." Lambo's form then starts to dissipate in violet mist, Torikabuto replacing him as he grabs hold of Yuni.

"Y-You're…!" Tsuna cried.

"Torikabuto!" Nerio cried.

"Lambo! Under sofa!" I-pin tells them, as true enough, the cow kid is taped around his limps and a tape on its mouth under the couch.

"W-What?-!" Tsuna cried, "W-What's going on?-!"

"It's the time that we opened the door." Korin stated, "He must have switched with Lambo then."

"N-No way!"

"Impressive, Korin Yan." Torikabuto said.

"Your first mistake was that Lambo always called Adhira 'Lambi'." Korin stated.

"Get him!" Sol shouted as he has his fist cocked back to punch the phantom, but he was faster and dodged the punch and heads for the door, "You're not getting away!" Nerio shouted, but was to no avail as Torikabuto just broke right through them.

"Guys!" Tsuna and Korin cried as he ran over to them, just as they saw Torikabuto flew up, right next to Kikyou, Bluebell, Salvia and Daniel.

"A-Ah! T-Those are…" Tsuna cried.

"The real Funeral Wreaths!" Korin cried.

"Oh-ho, leave this us, Torikabuto." Kikyou tells his fellow guardian, "You go on ahead with Yuni-sama."

"Sawada-san! Korin-san! Uncle!" Yuni cried.

"Looks like they planned this one out pretty well." Reborn stated.

"But how did they find us?-!" Tsuna cried.

"It's time for you all to face Bluebell!" Bluebell giggled as she opened her box, with many large shells flew right down at them, "Die!"

Mikuri and Gokudera quickly opened their boxes and brought out their shields, barely blocking the falling shells which exploded like huge bombs.

"Everyone!" Yuni cried.

"We're not done!" Salvia shouted, opened his box and large cone shells flew down at them, exploding near their shields.

"Darn you!" Sol cursed as he brought out his card, "Adeat! Sacra Grana(Sacred Beads)!" His form changed into his fighter priest outfit with his artefact necklaces around his arms before extending his arms up and the two beads flew out and circled above them and blocked all the shells. But Sol need to use a lot of his ki to create the barrier, and the constant bombardment isn't helping.

"Oh, I'm just getting started!" Kikyou stated as he flung all the plant projectiles at them. "Same here!" Daniel said as he fired more black spikes at them.

"Stop this!" Yuni cried.

'This isn't good!' Korin thought as he took on more of the blasts.

'At this rate, they're going to escape with Yuni…!' Reborn thought grimly.

"Minna-san! Uncle!" Yuni cried.

"Oh-ho, mission accomplished." Kikyou chuckled.

At that moment, two black spinning black furry objects pierced right through Torikabuto, reducing him into mist and then caught Yuni in an electric net, "Colulu? Widget?" Yuni said in surprise.

"Are you all right?" A deep voice said, carrying the young girl as a princess. The Sky Arcobaleno turned to find a familiar eyes and light blonde hair, "Hime?"

"G-Gamma!" Yuni cried out, her eyes tearing up that for the survival of her subordinate.

"Hime!" A young boy is long pink hair with a storm scythe appears in front of them. "We'll protect you!" A large burly man with dark skin too appears wielding a similar storm scythe as the boy is.

"Nosaru…! Tazaru…!"

"The Black Spell?-!" Kikyou cried, "They were supposed to have perish along with the Melone base!"

"They must have left before the transfer…" Daniel said.

"What are you playing at, Torikabuto?-!" Bluebell shouted, "Retrieve Yuni at once!"

The mist starts to re-materialised, Torikabuto re-formed back there. "I'll assist him!" Salvia said.

"Don't worry, we know all about Gamma's abilities. Torikabuto can handle him alone." Kikyou stated.

With that, Torikabuto dashed at them, "You just try it!" Tazaru shouted, "There is nothing I'd like more than a proper life-and-death battle!"

"This is the best, Tazaru-aniki!" Nosaru stated, "Right now, I'm Nosaru of the Giglio-Nero!" The both of them swung their scythes at him, but they missed and Torikabuto got them with a strike to their side.

"Nosaru! Tazaru!" Yuni cried.

"Tch." Gamma clicked his tongue, "Nero Volpe!" He summoned his black foxes to attack the phantom, but they too were defeated, chainsaws from Torikabuto cuts them. "What?-!" 'Impossible… With a single strike?-!'

Just as Torikabuto got closer, Gamma brought out as much lightning flames as he can to form a shield, "Oh-ho, with a ring of that level, you can accomplish nothing." Kikyou chuckled.

"It's over." Daniel chuckled.

"What is?" The blonde stiffened as he turned to find a hooded figure in a black hoodie with a hood covering her head with a wolf mask covering the upper part of her face, a black mini-skirt with metal trims at the end, as well as black boots. Her hidden blade from her bracer at his neck, "Don't try to underestimate Gamma-san's resolve. Besides, they are not alone."

Just as Torikabuto was about to come in contact with them, a fist hits from under him that is followed by a sword hilt that hits right at the mask, sending the phantom flying back, shocking everyone. "Where do you think you're looking at?" Tsuna's voice asked. "Your opponents are here." Korin said, the both of them in hyper mode and in front of them, with their respective weapons and box weapons out and ready.

"Their brow ever furrowed… they wields their fists as though in prayer… swung his sword as if cleansing his opponent's soul…" Yuni stuttered, "Those… are the… Vongolia Decimo and Knight Decimo…"

"How in the world…?" Kikyou mumbled.

"They come out from nowhere!-!" Salvia and Bluebell cried.

"Don't ever underestimate our speed." Tsuna stated.

"Hmph, you sure have the guts to say that to the opponent you couldn't defeat in Choice." Kikyou said.

"Sad mortals." Torikabuto said as he ignites his ring. He opened up his robes to show the same white box in his chest. "There's a box lodged in his chest!" Fuuta cried. "It must be the Open Carnage Box in the future Korin's notes." Reborn said.

"Shall we go then, aconite?" Kikyou said.

"Wait while we hold our breaths!" Bluebell said as she and Salvia pinched their noses.

With the opening of the box, the phantom was surrounded by spherical flames like Daisy and Marigold, everyone had to block themselves from the huge gusts of wind and the smoke clears to reveal Torikabuto to have sprouted moth wings emitting huge amount of mist flames.

"H-Hahi! Gross!" Haru cried.

"The end has come."

With that, the entire plane just starts to spin and warp.

"W-What the!?" Kasumi cried.

"Our surroundings are starting to spin!" Mikuri cried.

"This illusion… It's stronger than it was in Choice!" Tsuna cried.

"To fool even the Yurei-me… So this is the Open Carnage Box…" Korin mumbled.

"The Open Carnage Box is the power of human knowledge and box weapon combined." Kikyou said proudly, "Those who set their eyes upon Aconite, the biological mimesis of a moth, immediately feel an adverse effect on their five senses and they lose sight of the truth."

"Hypnotism?-!" Nerio cried, "To affect just a wide range…" He then realised something and smirked.

Torikabuto then disappears into thin air, "He disappeared!" Tsuna cried.

"Haru has no idea what's going on!-!" Haru cried.

"I'm getting dizzy…" Fuuta grunted.

"Round n' round…" Lambo stuttered dizzily.

"I think I'm going to be sick…" Sol grunted, before covering his mouth from puking.

"Not good…" The hooded figure said as she unconsciously lowered her weapon, giving Daniel an opening to strikes the girl back and flew up to Kikyou.

"Shit! I can't grasp the ground…" Gamma said.

'Where is he…?' Tsuna thought, then closed his eyes and tried to sense him, 'Where did he go?-!'

"It's useless." Kikyou tells them, "Those who set their eyes on the moth, no matter how you try to close your eyes, you will continue to see these illusions. Even with your Hyper Intuition and his eyes, you won't be able to find him."

"No way!" Fuuta cried.

"This isn't good." Reborn stated, "Yuni will definitely be targeted."

'Hmph… all that's left to do now is to wait for the signal that Yuni-sama is secured…' Kikyou thought, 'But just in case…' "Daniel, support Torikabuto."

"Roger that." Daniel telepathically saluted as he too vanished into thin air.

"Ah! The blondie from before!" Kasumi cried.

'This isn't good…' Korin thought grimly.

"Boss! Boss Knight! To the right of the sky child!"

The two skies heard the pineapple girl and flew and elbowed right of Yuni and Gamma. True enough, Torikabuto and Daniel were there and they were hit at their faces.

"W-What?-!" Kikyou cried out.

"Down! Right down!" Chrome cried out.

They flew right down and punched down, again hit the two invisible people.

"Right! Now right!"

"Chrome-san?" Fuuta mumbled.

"Tch, that girl is annoying." Daniel grumbled as he was readied to fire his spikes.

"Fall." A sound of a brush stroke in the air, and the blonde then suddenly stopped igniting his boots and fall straight down. He managed to get back to the air, "What the-?-!"

"Ignition." Another sound of the brush stroke and the blonde was set ablaze for no good reason, "AH!" He cried out as he threw off his coat that was on fire and watched it burn to cinders, "This is annoying!" He got ready to fire again.

"Tch. Blow!" The blonde is then sent spinning around, unable to fire again, with a sudden strong tornado, "Now… Break!" A series of brush strokes sounds later and the blonde suddenly coughed out blood, just as hundreds of wounds appear on his limps.

"Nerio-nii-san…?" Kasumi said.

"T-That's…!" Mikuri cried out.

"Chrome's mist owl and Nerio's mist raven have undergone Cambio Forma." Reborn stated.

"That means…" Fuuta realised.

"Yes, those are the same Vongolia Boxes that were used by the first generation Mist Guardian and Mist Knight in their time." In front of Chrome's exposed eye were three lenses with small violet wings on its brim, while on Nerio's right index finger is a black-silver finger ornament that looks like a raven's head, violet aura coming out of the beak, "Known as the trickery duo as the mystery phantom and witch, Daemon Spade's Devil Lens and Evangeline's Curse Pen!"

"It was rumoured that during their time, all those who gazed into that lens or witness the woman scribbled in the air were found floating lifeless in the ocean the next day." The hitman concluded, 'Although the fact is that Chrome and Nerio are nothing like them, with one of them was a traitor through and through and the other was a mystery woman who has a lot of holes in her past…'

Tsuna lands an uppercut on the phantom, causing the illusion to fade. Na-Tsu gave another of its roar which petrified his wings, and then Tsuna flew over and gave a strong kick at his mask, shattering the wings in the process. As the result, the illusion completely fade and everyone lands back on the ground.

"Torikabuto!" Daniel cried.

"Where are you looking at?" Korin asked, just as he slashed at the man's chest, but only cuts his jacket. Daniel took his box weapon but then a shadow from behind him dashed forward and cut through the man. However, there were no cut and only the appearance of a magic circle before it cracked and burst into countless pieces, "Magic circle removed…"

"No one told me about this Vongolia Box!" Bluebell pouted.

"What are you, a kid?" Salvia said, "Oh wait, you are."

'Rather than that, what's far more alarming are their fighting tactics… Now that Daniel is unable to assist him…' Kikyou thought, "Let me help you, Torikabuto. Even if you win one-on-one, they out-numbered you."

"This is the way of the Vongolia." Kikyou has to dodge the incoming bullets from the hitman, "The Vongolia's strength has nothing to do with numbers, it's all in the teamwork."

"I'll leave the rest to you…" Basil panted after he released his rain dolphin for the hitman to ride up to them.

"Arcobaleno!" Kikyou mumbled.

"Uncle!" Yuni cried.

"That's right!" Ryohei's loud voice boomed, as the boxer flew up with his flame boots and his sun kangaroo out, "When my comrades are in need of help, the fire of my fighting spirit burns to the EXTREME!"

"Don't you forget about me!" Kasumi cried as she flew up there with her rain phoenix on her back, giving her an angel appearance and her sword ready.

"Those guys really overdo it…" Gokudera mumbled.

"Onii-chan!" Kyoko cried out worriedly.

"Buu… I had it!" Bluebell cried as she opened her robes, but Kikyou stopped her, "Don't be hasty." Kikyou tells her, "It would be easier to exterminate them all. However, in order to make sure that Yuni-sama is captured safely, we need more power."

"Then what?-!"

"We better retreat for now." Kikyou tells her, "As long as we restructure ourselves, everything will be easily done."

"I don't wanna!" Bluebell whined.

"Take a look there."

Bluebell turned to find Tsuna getting ready to fire his X-Burner at Torikabuto, which he did as the huge blast of sky flames completely engulfed and burned away at the man, which in turn becomes a lifeless doll. Bluebell and Kikyou grabbed him and flew off just as Salvia picked up the unconscious Daniel and flew after them.

"They're retreating…" Ryohei mumbled as he saw the five flew off, but then he just slumped down, with Tsuna flying over to support him along with Kasumi. At the ground, Gokudera and Sol both have dealt with heavy wounds, even Nosaru and Tazaru have collapsed from their wounds.

"We've been dealt quite a lot of damage." Reborn said.

"Gamma! Please take me down there!" Yuni said worriedly.

"Hai." Gamma stated as the loyal subordinate he is.

"Ite…" The hooded figure from before grunted, as she got up from the rubble covered in bruises, what she did not know is that her mask has come off. "Oh, there you are." Korin said as he picked up the mask, "You forgot… this…" He looked at the face in front of him; boy is he in for a surprise.

"WHAT THE FUCK!?-!?-!?"

"Eh?" Tsuna looked over to his location, "That's Korin-san's voice."

"Is it another enemy?-!" Sol cried.

"Oi, Korin! Are you all… right…" Nerio ran over there but what he saw freaked him out internally, "Err… Guys… You might want to see this…"

Out of curiosity, everyone that can walked moved over to them, where they looked down on the girl, who apparently looks exactly like Kairi. That girl was shivering in fright, "A-Ano… N-Nice to meet you?"
