Character Outline

Iemitsu Sawada as the Leader of CEDEF

Iemitsu Sawada (沢田 家光, 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, Timoteo.

Appearance

Iemitsu, unlike the rest of his family, possesses blond hair and a muscular build.

Personality

He is a very happy-go-lucky guy and loves to drink, sleep, and dream of his wife, Nana. When he left home, he wanted Nana to tell Tsuna that he'd gone away and "become a star," a euphemism for dying. His cover story was that he was working traffic at construction sites, but he was really away on Vongola business.

History

Seven years prior to the main storyline, Iemitsu and his team, CEDEF, were in charge to investigate an attack on allied bosses of Vongola. From the investigation, CEDEF discovered that one of the bullet holes was made by an old fine art dealer who was none other than Enma's father, Makoto Kozato. While they began investigating, an incident occured that resulted in twelve of Iemitsu's subordinates being barbarically murdered while crammed into a hotel elevator. This incident was known as the "Flood of Blood" incident. Makoto Kozato's bullets were found at the scene, and Iemitsu removed them immediately. That night, Kozato's house was attacked; Makoto, his wife, and his daughter, Mami were killed in their room just like the Flood of Blood incident. After the murders, Iemitsu denied any and all involvement to the Ninth and the incident went unsolved.

Plot Overview

Varia Arc

Iemitsu came back from his work trip to oversee the training that Tsuna's Guardians went through. In a flashback of the choosings of the Guardians, he offered Mukuro the opportunity to become Tsuna's Mist Guardian in exchange for Ken and Chikusa's safety.

Inheritance Ceremony Arc

He has been accused by Enma on ordering the CEDEF to kill his family. However, Daemon Spade revealed that he disguised himself as Iemitsu, caused the Flood of Blood incident and killed Enma's family.

The Curse of the Rainbow Arc

Iemitsu is first seen in the CEDEF headquarters agreeing to Colonello's request for the CEDEF to fight for him. Later, Iemitsu arrives in Japan as Colonello's representative and greets Tsuna and Nana, introducing his CEDEF workers as well, though he introduced them to Nana as his "fellow workers" to dig for oil. When Byakuran arrives, Iemitsu watches Tsuna with calculating eyes as Tsuna converses with Byakuran, albeit the former was nervously doing so.

Weapons and Abilities

His weapon appears to be a pickaxe, and he is seen being able to dig large holes in extremely short amounts of time, shown when he saved Gokudera from accidentally fatally blowing himself up.

Trivia

• Since Dying Will Flames seem to run in families and Iemitsu is related both to the first Vongola Boss and Tsuna, it is highly likely that Iemitsu has a Sky 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 makes him ineligible to be a candidate for the position of Boss of the Vongola.
• According to Timoteo, the Vongola Nono, he was once called the "Young Lion of Vongola."
