Sawada Tsunayoshi thought death was a long sleep. Once he closed his eyes, his soul would slumber alongside his friends within the Vongola Rings, passing through the generations until the end of the world.
Until
His counterparts from other worlds started asking for help across dimensions.

In one world.
Underground idol Tsunako once again got on the wrong subway home. But this time, the train didn't take her somewhere unknown. It went straight to Hell.
The real Hell.
Watching a blue-haired humanoid monster sing as it cheerfully came toward her, Tsunako could only grab the one thing within reach: the heirloom ring.
God, please.
Ancestors, please.
She began to pray.
Anyone at all, any hero or brave soul, please save me.
As soon as the words left her mouth, her ring began to glow.
But it only glowed.
Tsunako, who had been so full of hope: ...Are you kidding me?
The tearful little idol thought she must have lost her mind. Her life was in danger, and she still believed Grandpa's childish reassurance that “the ring will protect you.”
But the next second
A blazing, brilliant inferno surged forth like it would consume the heavens, illuminating the entire dark subway.
A golden-eyed young man in a suit, flames burning above his head, appeared before her. The moment he arrived, every danger and shadow was shut out completely.
Their eyes met, and they realized there could be no pair of twins in the world more alike than they were.

After dealing with the problem in this world, Sawada Tsunayoshi looked over his schedule and discovered that his counterparts' lives were truly “colorful” and “fraught with peril.”

The first lesson is called growing up. The second is called parting. But some things will always remain by your side, never to be separated.
I prayed to the gods countless times, but the only one who ever answered was you: past, present, and future.
1. A story about a 2700 with an old-man mentality and the full-on presence of a mafia boss, and various 27s from other worlds who pass through the original story. No selfcest. The relationships between the 27s are familial (?).
2. Centered on Sawada Tsunayoshi. Although each world's 27 only passes by the edges of the plot, they have their own stories to live through, and will meet the companions destined for them. 2700's pairing is a character from the original world, though I haven't decided who yet. The 27s' pairings will depend on the circumstances.
Theme: Save yourself from danger, again and again
