Ten Year Bazooka

From Reborn Wiki

The 10 Year Bazooka is a special Bazooka developed by the Bovino Famiglia. It is used by Lambo when he is sad or angry. When shot by the Ten Year Bazooka, the target will switch places with themselves from ten years in the future. This effect only lasts for 5 minutes before the current and future self switch back. No one really knows what Lambo does when he is stuck in the future for 5 minutes. Later, in the Varia Arc, while battling Leviathan, it is revealed that Lambo can use the 10 Year Bazooka multiples times, using it twice during the battle; originally he summoned himself at age 15, but when 15 year-old Lambo was scared away by Leviathan, he used the Bazooka again, thus summoning Lambo at age 25. The Bazooka has been known to malfunction, and can also cause undesired effects when it does; these include the target merely being shortened to the size of themselves ten years prior, or the target's growth to the size of themselves ten years later, though their personality remains unchanged.

[edit] Malfunctions

• Lambo once hit the Bazooka against the wall in Tsuna's room; this damaged it enough to cause it to merely change the size of its targets. When it was used, Lambo became the size of his adult self, and when the effects of the Bazooka wore off, 15 year-old Lambo was reduced to the size of his child self. It's unknown at what point this effect wore off.

• At one point, Giannini attempted to upgrade the Bazooka, but this once again resulted in its malfunction, and the Bazooka would make any target shrink to the size of a 5 year-old; it had no effect on Child Lambo, as he was already 5 years old, though it did reduce Gokudera's height significantly, if only for five minutes.

[edit] Future Arc

• Young Shoichi uses the 10 Year Bazooka to send the Vongola Famiglia to the future; simultaneously, Adult Shoichi used a time machine to prevent the future and past Famiglia members from actually switching places, as this would cause a disturbance in time.
