SO I KNOW I JUST KEEP C/PING CANON SUMMARIES FROM THIS SITE but I want them for future ref \o/
Elsewhere, Verde has the profiles of the other Arcobaleno on screen. He expected them to interfere with his research. He says they are conceited to call themselves the strongest, not when he always thinks ahead. There are many ways to defeat that strength.
He runs simulations of the box weapons versus the Arcobaleno. The simulations confirm that, at the moment, Viper was right and forms of higher animals don’t last long yet. Form will decay over time, as is the natural order. He simply has to overcome the natural order.
He increases voltage output to 100,000 Fiamma Volts. This sustains the box weapon animals (some of the box animals you’ve seen with Millefiore White Spell) in the simulation, defeating the Arcobaleno at their current stats, except for Reborn. But Verde says that’s just miscalculation on his part. The simulation is complete. (By the way, it’s really creepy, this. The Arcobaleno are really killed off by the box weapon animals in the simulations.)

At the shrine, the other Arcobaleno who are not Verde are assembled, along with Aria. They’re not particularly happy about it.
Viper doesn’t know where Verde is either. They talked via video conference. The weapons came through the mail, the results were sent through email, Viper opened a one-time Swiss bank account for the payment. [So online savvy of you, Viper.]
Skull says Reborn should have just let Tsuna pass, but Reborn says he is just being stupid. He orders for espresso, Viper for strawberry milk [what?!], Colonello and Lal for sports drinks, Fon for oolong tea, even Aria plays along and orders milk tea…all of this to be paid when Skull gets back. lol.
Skull aside, Colonello thinks the same. But Reborn is stubborn. They cannot go easy on them. The trials in the future…but he can’t tell the other Arcobaleno. Besides, the Vongola do not have his AND Verde’s seal.
Colonello wants to find and beat Verde to a pulp. Fon says no, there should be no infighting. Viper adds that Verde is needed for them to return to their original forms. All seven of them are needed.
At the moment the Arcobaleno can only stand back and watch as Verde gives out whatever trial he will; the Vongola cannot say no as it is. But that is unless Verde has violated the pact, and upset the Trinisette Policy. Then, they have no choice but to move.

Colonello adds that while Verde is Arcobaleno, he is not one of them. He is willing to do anything for his research.

Verde himself appears on top of a submarine. Colonello tries to confirm a trial, but Verde says that everything in the world only serves to help him complete his research. He could care less about the Arcobaleno pact. He needs the Vongola rings. Hand them over. He will destroy all who resist, including the other Arcobaleno.
Reborn goes into royally-pissed mode, converting Leon into the shotgun. Verde has broken the pact. They will move. Lal Mirch and Colonello also arm.
AWESOME.
SOMEONE APP ME SOME MORE ARCOBALENO.
