The Vongola-Style Coup! Move Aside, Let the Professionals Handle This

Sawada Tsunayoshi, head of the Vongola family, the uncrowned king of the underworld, aka the beauty-punch villain terminator. In the fifth year after officially taking over the family business, he was forced to leave home. And not just any home. He ran away across universes. Sawada Tsunayoshi: That sounds awfully familiar, heh heh heh heh. The culprit told him, “You wouldn’t want your Guardians to find out you’re acting as someone else’s boss while you’re away, would you? So get out there, work hard, and keep becoming the greatest boss in different worlds!” Sawada Tsunayoshi: “?” Who the heck is responsible for me secretly (not really) acting as a boss out there?! * Loading game… Worker, choose your immediate supervisor: 【Oni: Twin Sins】 I swear I’m not trying to steal the position of Lord TAT (√) 【The Distillery: Mastermind】 Welcome to the Vongola family. We offer seven types of insurance, two housing funds, five days off a week, and excellent benefits. Sign up and get a Boss trading card. (In progress…) 【Ability Users: The Boss】 This is truly my old line of work. 【Hunters: Chimera Ant King】 Thanks for the offer, but I don’t eat people. Let’s build a bright new future for the many species and humans of the Dark Continent. 【Curse: Creation】 How to save the world while everyone’s busy fighting among themselves. (√) 【Fire: Inhuman Being】 Please stop leaving your kids with people wherever you go. 【Sea’s Treasure: Heir】 And so, the ship sails on forever. * In short, when someone asks: Building up experience and saving up subordinates the honest way takes too much money and skill. Is there another way? Sure, my friend, there is. There’s another way to do it. Just let me handle it. I’m a professional protagonist. I’m a professional boss, too. 【He is the moon among the stars, the banner of the iron cavalry, the king who commands the seas and the hearts of all】 1. Also known as “How Am I Usurping the Throne Again?” and “Usurping the Throne Has Become a Passive Skill.” The order of the settings in the main story isn’t fixed. I’ll write whichever one inspires me. 2. A little bit of Dying Will Syndrome. Tsunayoshi is 22, and his ability to control a situation is still developing. There’ll probably be a lot of Cloud Guardian-style remarks. (To put it plainly, I’m writing this so my favorite can become an emperor (?). Ahem, ahem, ahem.) Feel free to check out the author’s notes. I like slipping in made-up Vongola secrets and jokes. 3. The original world’s 27 is the main focus. In the other worlds, it’s about 27 as the boss, with the other characters as friends. The endgame pairing will be with a male character from the original-world setting, but I haven’t decided who yet (since the original-world guys are fighting over the pen, it’ll probably end with multiple endings…). Coming soon: “Vongola-Style Revival!” Sawada Tsunayoshi believed death was a long sleep. Once he closed his eyes, his soul would sleep alongside his friends inside the Vongola Rings, passing through the generations until the world’s end. Until His counterparts in other universes started calling across worlds for help. * In one world. Underground idol Tsunako had once again boarded the wrong train home today. 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 approached, Tsunako could only clutch the one thing at her side: the ring passed down through her family. God. Ancestors. She began to pray. Whoever you are, any hero, any brave soul, please save me. As soon as the words left her mouth, her ring began to glow. And that was all it did. It just glowed. Tsunako, full of anticipation: …What is wrong with you?! The tearful little idol thought she must be losing her mind. Her life was in danger, and she’d actually believed Grandpa’s childish promise that “the ring will protect you.” But the very next moment Blazing, magnificent flames surged like a sky-consuming inferno, illuminating the entire dark cavern. A young man with golden eyes appeared before her, dressed in a suit with flames burning above his head. The moment he appeared, every danger and shadow was shut out completely. Their eyes met, and they realized there could be no pair of twins more alike in the world. * After dealing with the problem in this world, Sawada Tsunayoshi looked through his schedule and realized that his counterparts’ lives could only be described as “colorful” and “fraught with danger.” * You once prayed to the gods, but the only one who will always answer is you, from the past, the present, and the future. 1. Stories about 2700, with the mindset of a kindly old man and the full qualities of a godfather, and the various 27s from other worlds who pass through their respective plots. No self-romance. The relationships between the 27s are familial (?). 2. Centered on Sawada Tsunayoshi. Though each world’s 27 only brushes past the edges of the plot, they still have their own stories to live, and will meet the companions they’re destined to find. 2700’s love interest will be a character from the original world, but I haven’t decided who yet. The pairings for the other 27s will depend on the circumstances. Theme: Hope is always there, and kindness should never go unrewarded.
