## Biography

**Tsunayoshi "Tsuna" Sawada** (沢田 綱吉, *Sawada Tsunayoshi*) is the main protagonist of *Reborn!* He is the only child of Iemitsu and Nana Sawada, he is a descendant of Giotto on the paternal side of his family. He holds the title of being tenth generation Boss of the Vongola Famiglia and is being trained to be the Neo Vongola Primo.

Although Tsuna openly dislikes his role in the mafia and does not wish to have anything to do with it, he has played a significant role in protecting the mafia world in numerous battles so far involving the Kokuyo Junior High Gang, a group of escaped Mafia exiles, the Varia, a rival group of elite assassins within the Vongola; ten years in the future, the Millefiore Famiglia, a rival famiglia in the process of eliminating the Vongola which ended with Tsuna defeating the rival Famiglia's leader, Byakuran, a battle with the Simon Famiglia, former ally of the Vongola, caused by the first (and second) generation Mist Guardian Daemon Spade's meddling, and the Representative Battle of the Rainbow, a battle fought to free one Arcobaleno from their curse, Tsuna fighting for Reborn.

At first a cowardly and useless junior high student, Tsuna is suddenly thrown into fulfilling the role as the tenth generation Boss of the Vongola Famiglia, the most prominent Mafia Famiglia in the world, forcing him to gather his own Guardians to eventually battle for the survival of the world. His character development from a weak individual who easily gives up to a leader dedicated and willing to fight for the protection of his friends, family, and Famiglia is a critical element of the series.

As the main protagonist of the series, Tsuna appears in all the series' video games, as well as special appearances in both Shōnen Jump compilation games, Jump Super Stars, Jump Ultimate Stars and J-Stars Victory Vs. He also appears in the Hidden Bullet light novels, albeit in a minor role. On July 8, 2008, Pony Canyon released a character CD containing media from both his and Reborn's voice actors.

This version of Tsuna is 10 years in the future and destroyed the Vongola Rings. He used the 10 Year Bazooka in order to call for help from the unlimited potential of the 10 years in the past Vongola Famiglia.

He is a member of The Enforcers and has bargained with the demon god of time and become a Bound Eternal.

## Powers/Abilities/Techniques

Tsuna is capable of using the Dying Will Flame (when shot with special bullets or having taken certain pills), which is a form of high pressured energy capable of having destructive powers or purifying evil auras. It initially lies within a person's body until it is awakened, helping increase a person's strength. When a person is able to control the full potential and power of the Dying Will they are able to go into (Hyper) Dying Will Mode at any time. Reborn said that any one has the potential to do this, but not many people can withstand the training phases. Through Reborn's training, Tsuna has grown exponentially whenever he faced opponents that were levels above him in strength.

Tsuna has at times showed signs of brilliance, despite his idiotic tendencies, having created a technique such as the Zero Point Breakthrough: Revised through his Hyper Intuition. He developed the X-Burner simply from Haru stating how her, Kyoko, and the others would always support Tsuna, which made Tsuna think of using the Soft Flames to support him with one hand, while he uses the other hand to fire the Hard Flames.

* **Vongola Hyper Intuition**- It is described by Reborn as being "a power that could see through all."
* **Minus State** - Tsuna can rest his Flames and pass out. After, Tsuna can return to his Hyper Dying Will Mode without getting hit with a Criticism Shot or having to ingest two Dying Will Pills.
* **Zero Point Breakthrough: Revised**: Tsuna's own version of the Zero Point Breakthrough. The revised Technique allows Tsuna to not only absorb the enemy Flames, but convert the Flames into his own power.

* **Zero Point Breakthrough: First Edition**: The Technique used by the First Vongola and later the Ninth Vongola and Tsuna. It takes Tsuna to be in the opposite state of the Hyper Dying Will State to create ice, which is highly negative compressed energy that can seal Dying Will Flames away and can only be melted by the Dying Will Flames.

* **X-Burner**: A powerful blast of Dying Will Flame from the X-Gloves Version Vongola Ring usable on the ground and in the air.

**Forms:**

* **Dying Will Mode**: This mode is activated when Tsuna is shot by Reborn's Dying Will Bullet or having taken a Dying Will Pill. It uses the pressure he faces during a crisis to externally remove Tsuna's body limiters. He then uses his increased strength and renewed confidence to fulfill his dying will, which is the last thought he regretted before being shot. Near the end of the series, Tsuna has displayed the ability to change his Dying Will while in Dying Will Mode.
* **Hyper Dying Will Mode**: This is when one has been hit with the Criticism Shot or ingested two Dying Will Pills. Hyper Dying Will, instead of removing external limiters on the body and using pressure during a crisis, removes internal limiters; therefore, releasing the person's hidden awareness. When the internal limiters are lifted, it awakens his Hyper Intuition.

**Equipment:**

* **X-Gloves** (エクスグローブ, *Ekusu guroobu*): Created by Reborn's pet, Leon. At first, they appear to be white, wool mittens, but when used with the Dying Will Flame, they change into a pair of black, metal-clad Gloves.
* **Flame Resistant Clothing**: These are spun from special Flame Resistant Cloth made by Leon and are capable of withstanding the Dying Will Flame to an extent.
* **Lancia's Boss's Ring**: Lancia gave this Ring to Tsuna before the latter left with Basil for Italy. Tsuna brought it with him to the future, and found out that it was a special ring until it was detected by a Strau Mosca shortly after meeting Lal Mirch. It also protected him from Byakuran's Mini White Dragon.
