Tsuna's a hero or a villain?

Kyoko and Hana were sitting together in the cafeteria, after the scene they saw yesterday, their understanding of Tsuna changed completely, whatever the reason for this change, they as well as everyone else who knew him in the school, now only had one word two words to describe him, mysteriously dangerous.

When he, Yamamoto, and Hayato walked around the school, people would give way to them like they were carrying the plague with faces full of fear. Nobody had the guts to stand in the way of someone who could get a teacher - no matter how much of an asshole he was - fired.

Rumors of them being part of a gang started to circulate the school very soon. And he didn't seem to care nor deny the accusations, it was like he was in a world of his own, slowly building up an image that made it difficult for people to understand him.

First and foremost, Tsuna was...

"Strong-Willed! I'm telling you, Kyoko, you know yourself as well as I know that he endured that bad treatment for years and never did anything about it, only an iron will could have made him go through all of that." Hana spoke as she ate her obento. Her voice had a tone of respect in it, she didn't like him or thought he was cool, but she could respect someone like him from the bottom of her heart.

"Pfft. Hana, you're making a fuss out of a small matter, why are you trying to profile him anyway?" Kyoko laughed at her friend's addiction of trying to understand the people around her that she usually kept hidden.

"Because it was too much of a change. Tsuna's character is a mystery for me, for example, why does he feel so evil and heroic at the same time?"

"Hm... maybe because of his recent actions? For me, Tsuna reminds me a lot of my older brother, I wish people would stop calling him no-good Tsuna, it's starting to make me angry because it feels as if they were calling my own brother like that." Kyoko's kindhearted sincere smile made the males passing nearby drool with desire in their eyes.

Hana gave her a knowing smile. As expected of the gentle Kyoko, always seeing the best in the people, still, she couldn't agree with her opinion. "You mean him beating up our seniors? How can that make him seem so heroic?"

"From what I heard, those seniors of ours were bullying someone prior to getting a beating from him, when I was younger my older brother did the same whenever someone messed with me, I think he's just protecting our schoolmates. Although I wish he would stop, I don't want to see him getting hurt." Kyoko sighed and shook her head as she took a sip of her juice.

"Hehe... is this the famous 'naive girl falling in love with the delinquent' that I'm seeing? Admit Kyoko, aren't you caring too much about his reputation and well-being? If I didn't know I would have thought you guys are dating."

"Eh!? Stop saying those embarrassing things... I don't have any feelings like that for him!" Kyoko shook her head while blushing, there was no way she was in love with Tsuna, she was really just worried for a friend.

"Is that so?" Hana sighed and got bored. "Still... I think Tsuna is just like any of those delinquents, a villain through and through."

"I still don't understand why you think so, even if he fights sometimes, you have to acknowledge at least that time with Mochida-senpai."

"Yes... yes... at least that one I was there to see it."

Tsuna was coming back home while wearing his suit, there was a mark of blood on it and he was carrying a Red Dragon logo on his hand, something ripped off of the new group sent to harass Liteno TV.

People would scream and ran away whenever they saw his cold face and noticed the sword hanging by his waist. After the situation today, the Red Dragon would probably make a move against him personally instead of targeting people like Yamamoto's grandpa or those from the TV station.

Tsuna massaged his neck and after shaking it a little with cracks resounding around it, he looked at his system for the first time in a while and was surprised by an unexpected sight.

[Bloodline: ??? (Extremely Pure) / Uchiha (Extremely Pure)]

[Physical Level: Chunin]

[Chakra level: Early Jonin]

When did he get a new bloodline? Besides, Chunin level already? He had been fighting so much recently that he barely even thought of checking his progress, in the end, it seems that drawing blood was much more effective than just training.

With a reinvigorated mood, Tsuna stopped in front of his house and took out his suit's shirt and blazer that were red with blood, he didn't want his mom to be worried as that would cause unnecessary trouble, especially now that his business was growing thanks to companies having noticed his recent actions, while the payment only amounts up to 120 thousand per month, the number of groups under his protection are just 4, three companies, and his as well as Yamamoto's grandpa's neighborhood.

The last one is just a little bit of community service, by doing it he could gather popular support, once his groups got bigger, he would start training them and increase his area of work, but, of course, those big businesses would all have to pay if they wanted his help, the charity was reserved only for the poor weaklings that couldn't fend for themselves.

"Mom! I'm back!"

"Oh, Tsuna, welcome back, one of your friends is waiting for you in your bedroom, I'll go up to send you some snacks in a while."

His mother cried from the kitchen as he dropped his bloodied clothes inside the washing machine in the washing room.

The moment he entered his room he was surprised by the sight of a girl sitting in one of the thin cushions in his room used as pseudo chairs when using the small table, Reborn was sitting before her and the two were drinking what he thought to be hot chocolate given the smell.

After a moment he remembered her name and was surprised. "Sasagawa-san? What are you doing in my home?"

"Ah! Tsuna! I-" Kyoko turned to look at him, there was a smile on her face, but the moment she saw his fit bare chest with the defined muscles her face got red and she quickly looked away with a blush on her face. "I... I... I was n-nearby and came to visit."

Tsuna smiled seeing her reaction and put on a shirt that he quickly took from the wardrobe in his room.

Reborn who didn't have the opportunity to speak with Tsuna that much recently as they were busy with studying turned to him and said. "Good job making Yamamoto your subordinate last week, he was an optimum candidate to join the Family."

Hearing him being so frank with him in front of Kyoko, Tsuna turned to look at her and was stunned seeing her smiling slightly.

"You really like this mafia game, Reborn-chan."

Reborn didn't reply and just took another sip of his hot chocolate as Tsuna sat on the table's side that was next to his bed.

He looked at Kyoko and flashed an evil grin as he leaned next to her. "Say, Kyoko, was it your first time with a naked boy in his room?"

"W-what!? W-what a... are you t-talking about!?" Kyoko flushed red like a tomato, usually, she wouldn't be like that, but with Hana's embarrassing jokes, plus the scene earlier that got her unprepared, the situation looked much more suspicious than it should!

It wasn't really her fault, even if she was a little bit of an airhead, just like any girl, she was aware of the matters between man and woman, and just like any other girl, she would definitely get flustered if she was in a boy's room and this boy just so happened to be very handsome and showed up half-naked... It was in a sense, very inappropriate.

"Hahaha! Just joking... by the way, what may I do for you today? It's not always that I get visited by one of the school beauties."

"Tsuna-san you're so evil... stop teasing me..." Kyoko looked at him with her blushing cheeks and teary eyes.

Seeing her like that made Tsuna feel like there were butterflies in his belly as he looked at her. No matter what, he didn't get to experience anything like dating before, he was even a little bit jealous of some of his fellow Uchiha around the same age, as they were all surrounded by beauties while everyone avoided him for some reason.
