Katekyo Hitman Reborn! 158

** I've added the Japanese text after the translation only where the sentences are unusual(?) or longer, or where the translation is not as literal.
** More Reborn translations here! In the future, I'll be posting new chapters here as well. Hopefully, this will get more people interested in Reborn!

Katekyo-Hitman REBORN!
Amano Akira

Target 158 Succession

[His fate will set the Flames seething!]

-3-

Tsuna: (No good… It’s not giving at all…)
(ダメだ……ビクともしない…)

Tsuna: (Although…
A small part of the armored wall has melted slightly.)

Tsuna: (It’s where the Ring’s Flame was.)

Tsuna: (Maybe that’s its weakness…)

Tsuna: (A Flame of higher purity.)

-4-

Tsuna: (But, how do I create such a huge high-purity Flame
That can break through the sphere…?)
でもどうすればこの球体をうち破るだけの巨大な高純度の炎を…

Reborn: (It’s almost time…)

Reborn: (The Ring will test Tsuna’s true resolution when he’s being driven nearly to death.)
死に追い込まれたツナの本当の覚悟がリングにためされるのは…

Yamamoto: Hey, little guy, where’re you going?
Reborn: Toilet break.

Tsuna: (I can’t die here…
Not in such a place…)

Tsuna: (What should I do?
Wasn’t my resolution enough? )

Tsuna: Uuuu…

-5-

Tsuna: (What more…
What more can I wish for?)

Tsuna: (What…)

Tsuna: !!

"Kill him."

-6-

Man: Please give me a chance!! If I die…
my child, and my wife…!!

Man: Gyaaaaah!

Tsuna: (What… is this!?)
(It’s being transmitted directly into my mind…)

"Revenge."
Gyaaaaaah!!

"Ambush."

"Eradicate."
Gyaaah!

Tsuna: (What…!
What is this!!?)

??: The Vongola’s…

-7-

Shadow: Past sins.

Tsuna: !!

Shadow: Murder. Revenge. Betrayal. An insatiable thirst for power…
This is the blood-stained history of the Vongola mafia.

Shadow: You, Holder of the Sky Vongola Ring.
Do you really have the resolution…

Tsuna: …eh!?

Shadow: The resolution to
inherit these past sins.

-8-

"Please help us!"
Tsuna: !!

"Gyaaaaahh!!"
"So brutal."
Tsuna: Uhhh…
Waahhh…
"Give me back my son!"
"My eye!! My eyeeeeee!!"

Tsuna: Stop…
Stop it!

Tsuna: STOP IT!!!

Lal: (Sawada…!)

Kusakabe: The oxygen is nearly out.
Both his mental and physical states are reaching critical levels…

Lal: This will not achieve anything! He’s just going to die in vain!
Cease this training at once!!

-9-

Hibari: It was you, wasn’t it? You instructed Sawada Tsunayoshi to fight with the Ring on his finger.
Lal: !
君だろ? 手にﾘﾝｸﾞをつけて戦うよう沢田綱吉に指示したのは

Hibari: That was the right thing to do. But, whether or not he can become the Sawada Tsunayoshi that you hope for…
He has to be tested under extreme situations.
彼は極限状態の中 器を試されているんだ

Hibari: There hasn’t been one so young to face the trial in Vongola history, though.
Lal: !

Lal: (Reborn!!)

La: (What do you hope to achieve by doing something like this?)

Lal: (Do you people intend to alter Sawada’s personality?)
Tsuna: *pant pant*
おまえ達は沢田の人格を変えてしまうつもりなのか?

Tsuna: Stop it!!
Stop it now!!

-10-

Shadow: Do not turn your eyes away. This is the destiny of the successor to the Vongola.
This is the purpose of the life you were given.
貴様が生を授かったことの意味そのものだ

Tsuna: I refuse!!
I can’t do such cruel things!!

Shadow: That is the price we must pay for the power we wish for.
If it’s great power you want, you must also have the resolution to inherit our great history.

Tsuna: I refuse…
*pant* *pant*

Tsuna: I thought that I could do anything, if it meant I could protect everyone…
*pant* *pant*
But… this…

Tsuna: I don’t need…
this kind of power!!

Shadow: !!
Shadow: What!?

Tsuna: If you want me to inherit such mistakes…
then, I…

-11-

Tsuna: I will wipe out
the Vongola!!!

??: ……

Tsuna: Uuu…
*pant pant*

Tsuna: What have I said…
Everyone…

Tsuna: I’m sorry…

Tsuna: ……?

Tsuna: !!
Ni-ninth Boss!!

Vongola Secondo
Vongola Terzo
Vongola Quarto
Vongola Quinto
Vongola Sesto
Vongola Settimo
Vongola Ottavo
Vongola Nono

[* Note: Italian for Second, Third, Fourth, etc. up to Ninth. Also, note that First is Primo, and Tenth is Decimo.]

-14-

Vongola Primo

Primo: Your resolution
has been unequivocally accepted.

-15-

Tsuna: What is this…
Is it a dream? An illusion?

[E'la nostra ora incisa sull'anello]
(Our hour was engraved on the Ring.)
リングに刻まれし我らの時間

[* Note: I think the Italian phrase says, literally, “our hour/time engraved on the Ring.” The Japanese is basically the same, so… I’ve left it rather literal.]

Tsuna: Hour…
Time?

Primo: To flourish, or to perish. It’s up to you now.
Vongola Decimo.

Tsuna: !

Primo: ...I have been waiting for you.

Now, it’s time for you to inherit… the proof of the Vongola.
