Iemitsu Sawada

Character Outline

Iemitsu Sawada is the father of 10th generation Vongola boss Tsunayoshi Sawada. He is also the leader of the CEDEF, Basil's master, and the External Advisor to the IX generation's Vongola boss. Iemitsu unlike the rest of his family possesses blond hair and a muscular build. He is very happy-go-lucky guy and loves to drink and pass out (he always dreams of his wife, Nana.) When he left their home he wanted Nana to tell Tsuna that he'd gone away and "become a star", a euphemism for dead. His cover story was that he was working traffic at construction sites, but he was really away on Vongola business. His weapon appears to be a pickaxe, and he is seen being able to dig large holes in extremely short amounts of time. (as he did to save Gokudera from accidentally fatally blowing himself up.)

Since Dying Will Flames seem to run in families and Iemitsu is related both to the first Vongola boss (great grandson) and Tsuna, it is highly likely that Iemitsu has a Sky type Dying Will Flame. While he may have the qualifications to be the next Vongola Boss, Iemitsu joined the CEDEF which is both part of, and yet separate from, the main family and therefore ineligible to be a candidate for the position of boss of the Vongola. According to Vongola Nono Timoteo he was called the "Young Lion of Vongola".

Trivia

• Iemitsu can speak Italian, unlike Tsuna.
• It is possible that Iemitsu inherited blonde hair from the 1st Vongola boss, while Tsuna inherited brown hair from his mother, Nana.
• If he is a desacandt of Vongola Primo there must be a reason he isn't the Vongola Heir.
