I am the protagonist

Although the Vongola family has hidden some of its past history, the scandals of the first Vongola have still been preserved.

Adebayo had also read the relevant materials.

She even knew that it was because Vongola I was driven to the island nation that Sawada Tsunayoshi's bloodline still existed in this world.

"Although the Vongola family tried to cover up the matter of Vongola I being ousted, it was still a scandal and some information has been preserved."

"..."

The fact that Yan Zhen shared the same fate as Yan Zhen was confirmed somewhat eased his displeasure.

Only people in similar circumstances can understand each other.

This statement is very true in a certain sense, because only those in the same situation can understand the pain of that situation.

"But why is the Vongola targeting our Simon family?"

"We're clearly not a threat at all, clearly..."

Tsuna sighed helplessly.

"Everyone is in the same situation. Regardless of whether your family has declined, your family is still remembered by someone."

"Your father, mother, and even your sister were killed for the same reason."

"!?"

These words greatly provoked Yan Zhen.

The deaths of his father, mother, and sister during his childhood cast a deep shadow over him.

To this day, he still hopes to find the murderer who killed his family.

"Who... killed my family?!"

Tsuna did not answer the question directly.

"Kuri Enma, why do you think Vongola I was kicked out of the Boss position?"

"How could I possibly..."

"No, you know this very well."

"Although Vongola I is not a saint, he does not want to cause innocent killings, so he uses peaceful methods to deal with problems."

"But in that era, peace wasn't something you could simply wish for and expect to find."

"A mafia boss having such naive ideas, such a person is simply not suitable to be the Vongola Boss... That must have been the saying circulating in the Vongola at the time."

"So Vongola I was kicked off that position and was even almost exiled to the very edge of the world."

"Isn't this just like your Simon I?"

These words completely awakened Yan Zhen.

It wasn't just Enma; everyone else was also awakened.

"Could it be... because Vongola I and Simon I share the same personality?"

"Is it because their personalities are unsuitable for being the head of a family that they were targeted?!"

"This……"

That's a joke.

Because the clan's boss's personality was incompatible, they actually kicked him out of the clan.

Was it even because of his personality that Simon I was targeted?

This joke has gone a bit too far.

"Although this statement sounds like a joke, it is true in a certain sense."

“The Vongola I’s gentleness was so glaring to some people, and since Simon I and the Vongola I were close friends at the time, the Vongola I’s gentleness was also believed to be guided by Simon I.”

"【The Vongola is an existence that needs to be feared and dreaded】that's what that person thought. A gentle Boss is something that's unnecessary."

"The culprit that made Vongola I so mild-mannered is also something like a virus, which needs to be sterilized and disinfected."

"That's why..."

Yan Zhen was trembling all over at this moment.

"Could it be that the reason my family is being targeted is because..."

"...That's right, because the person who inherits the bloodline of the first Vongola wants to regain control of the Vongola, and that person needs to purge the bloodline of the first Vongola."

"If we could take this opportunity to purge the bloodline of Simon I, that would be even better."

"And in that person's eyes, the mutual slaughter between us was probably what he most wanted to see."

Now things became clear, but Yan Zhen's eyes were already filled with tears.

"The beginning of the deaths of your parents and sister was the Blood Flood incident, which was also the beginning of the Simon family's resurgence of hatred towards the Vongola after a long period of silence."

"Although all the evidence points to one person, have you considered anything?"

Why are you still alive?

Yan Zhen was startled.

Yeah, why am I still alive?

Yan Zhen still vaguely remembers what happened back then.

I remember that the man brutally murdered all the members of my family.

There's no doubt that man came to kill our family.

That was clearly the situation; Yan Zhen even vaguely remembered that the man had already seen him.

but……

Why am I still alive?

"Your family members won't say anything."

"Why were you the only one who survived when you were at the scene?"

"If it's the Vongola taking their anger out on Simon, they certainly wouldn't let you, the eldest son, live. Even if they wanted to torment your Simon family, they should have let your sister live."

Yan Zhen knew that these words were true.

If the Vongola wanted to torment the Simon family, they should have let his sister live back then.

Although he knew that if his sister had survived at that time, it might have been more painful than if she had died.

But he also understood that if it had really been the Vongola who attacked their Simon family back then, he certainly wouldn't have survived.

"Your survival already has one reason."

"Because someone wants to sow the seeds of hatred towards the Vongola among the descendants of the Simon family, and that seed can be ignited and borne fruit whenever he desires."

"Just like you members of the Simon family now."

At this moment, Yan Zhen's eyes held nothing but anger, resentment, and horror at that man.

"In other words, everything in our Simon family is under that man's control."

“We hope that the revenge against the Vongola is also what he desires.”

"Even...it was with his [help] that our Simon family's ring reappeared in the world?"

With each word Yan Zhen spoke, he grew angrier.

If this is the truth, then the Simon family was truly treated like livestock and manipulated at will.

"Didn't you already know that in your heart all along?"

"Don't tell me you haven't thought about why the Simon family, which is so weak, would provoke the Vongola."

...Yan Zhen couldn't deny that he had indeed thought about such a thing.

I've even thought about it more than once.

Chapter 151 He's strong, so he doesn't need to lie.

"It's just that your parents and sister died in that incident, so you couldn't bear the pressure and that's why you pinned the blame on Vongola, because you subjectively believed that Vongola was the murderer."

Tsunayoshi was not surprised that Enma would have such thoughts.

This kind of thing would happen to anyone.

Everyone needs time to adjust.

The fact that his parents and family were wiped out is a pressure that no teenager can bear.

Knowing this, Tsuna didn't want to actually fight the Simon family.

He wouldn't have any objections if it was just for fun.

"You did nothing wrong."

"Doubt is a defense mechanism for everyone; it's incomprehensible not to doubt something like this."

"Therefore, some things require your own understanding."

"You don't need to believe everything I just said, because there's no need to believe it."

"Over time, people will gradually reveal everything that happened back then, and then you can judge for yourselves who the real enemy is."

Tsuna glanced at the Ninth Generation Storm Guardian.

Lan Shou quickly opened the box, inside which was a particularly exquisite bottle.

"This is the sin passed down through generations of the Vongola, and it is also the blood of you, Simon I."

"But you should have known this beforehand, right?"

The Simons were aware of this matter, but they never expected that such a thing would be placed directly in front of them.

"Then I'd like to tell you a very special piece of information."

"This is something only Simon I and his guardians know. The fact that the Vongola's greatest treasure is Simon I's blood is not something that just anyone can know."

“D-Spedo”

"You should already know that person's name from someone else. He is the Mist Guardian of the Vongola I, and the one who kicked the I off the throne."

"Normally speaking, a guardian of a lifetime shouldn't be able to live to this era, but sorcerers always have all sorts of ways to prolong their lives."

"For example, transferring one's soul into someone else's body, taking over their body, and so on."

"!?"

These words startled everyone in the Simon family.

At that moment, they all noticed that Curie was not at home.

Now that Vongola X has said something like this, doesn't that mean Curie... has very likely already had her body taken over?

"I should be receiving the Vongola succession ceremony soon."

"I'll allow you to come and cause some trouble then, I'd be happy if it's just playing games."

"Besides, the agreement with the Avengers has already been made. As long as you don't kill yourselves, no matter how you do it, it's not too much."

"Treat it as a grand event, and participate with some excitement."

Tsuna stood up from his seat.

"Then see you next time."

"Or perhaps we'll meet again at Namimori Junior High School soon."

Tsuna left the Simon family with Reborn and the Storm Guardian of the Ninth Generation.

The members of the Simon family who remained at home were unable to speak for a long time.

"Edheti, do you think Curie's body has really been possessed?"

"..."

This question left Edheidi unsure how to answer.

Curie, are you really being controlled?

I don't know if that's true for Ed Heidi.
