Varia Leader
Xanxus is cruel and ruthless, showing no mercy to enemies and allies alike. He shows no remorse nor sadness when his subordinates dies as he only sees them as nothing more but tools to help him gaining the title of Vongola 10th. He can be short-tempered, easily angered even for a small mistake such as beating up his subordinates just because they're bringing the wrong food. He has a great self-confidence of his strength and power, and thus, occasionally looking down on his enemies, referring them as trashes. Despite this, however, Xanxus seems to have a certain degree of respect and knows the importance of the Famiglia's unity when they are in very dire situation. This is shown during his battle with Olgert in the future when he said that Vongola would always fight as one, and during the final battle with the Real Six Funeral Wreaths when he and his subordinates declared that they will help Tsuna and his friends despite Xanxus still not approved of Tsuna as the Vongola Boss.
X-Guns: Xanxus has two Guns that are able to absorb and store the Dying Will Flames, accumulated it and release it through a Dying Will Bullet, different from the ones Reborn uses on Tsuna. Vongola VII was said to have the weakest Flame of all the Vongola Leaders, so he designed a Weapon that he could store his Flame in and release it as a strong Flame attack. Xanxus takes the idea of these Guns and creates his own version. The difference is that Xanxus has a very strong Flame and can store his Flame of Wrath within his X-Guns, creating a super-powerful blast. Xanxus is also capable of using these for propulsion, allowing him to fly and move at great speeds.
Ligre Tempesta di Cielo: Ligre di Tempesta di Cielo - Also called Bester, is Xanxus's animal type box weapon. Originally thought to be Leone di Cielo (Sky Lion), Bester is actually a mixed breed between a Sky Lion and Tigre Tempesta, making it Ligre di Tempesta di Cielo (Ligre of Storm and Sky). Xanxus's box weapon has the ability to change from a lion to a tiger when Xanxus wants it to. The only visual difference between these forms is that when it is in tiger mode, it has black tiger-like stripes running along its body. Some people believe that the reason Bester is a mix breed is because Xanxus combines his Flames of Wrath with his sky flames, which adds an additional decomposition trait to his box weapon. Its attack is a roar, which uses the Sky attribute of harmony to petrify, and then the Storm attribute of degeneration to cause the petrified object to crumble. The Liger and Xanxus have an odd relationship where the Lion will grow stripes when Xanxus' scars appear, but this is not the only time. Bester has storm like attributes in his attacks.
Armatura Platino: Ligre Tempesta di Cieli An alternate form of the Ligre Tempesta di Cieli, just with a longer mane and a platinum armor, giving it immense defense and durability, and is thus able to withstand attacks.
Cambio Forma: Pistole Imperatore Animale - The Platinum Armor Sky/Storm Liger's Cambio Forma, fusing with Xanxus's X-Guns and greatly increasing its power. The gun's cartridge area resembles Bester's mane, and the bullets fired from the X-Guns are in the shape of a liger and more powerful.
TECHNIQUES:
Flame of Wrath: (憤怒の炎, Fundo no Honō) Xanxus possesses Vongola II's Ability, Flame of Wrath. This is a very powerful and destructive Flame that was said to only appear when the Vongola II was enraged, giving it its name. The Second was also said to have the most devastating and powerful Flame of all the Vongola Leaders.
Scoppio d'Ira (Burst of Wrath): An Attack that requires the use of the Dying Will X Guns. Xanxus unleashes a barrage of Flame simultaneously that, because of their density and grouping, appear to fuse together into one large super-powerful blast.
Bocciolo di Fiamma (Bud of Flame): Another Attack that requires the use of the X Guns. Xanxus uses one gun to fly around the target and the other to shoot his target from different angles to form a flower bud at the target's feet.
Colpo d'Addio (Blow of Farewell): A stronger version of Scoppio de Ira where Xanxus charges up energy in his guns and fires two super-powerful shots with the same or more power than Scoppio de Ira.
Martello di Fiamma (Hammer of Flame): The strongest version of Scoppio d'Ira and Xanxus' strongest move.
Xanxus is the current leader of the Varia, Vongola Ninth's adopted son, and was the main antagonist of the Varia Arc. During the Varia Arc, he and Tsuna battle for the Sky Vongola Ring and the position of the 10th Vongola Boss. Later, in the Future Arc, he remains the leader of the Varia and leads a raid against the Millefiore, taking their Headquarters. He battles against one of the Fake Funeral Wreaths as well and easily wins, showing that he has grown much stronger in the future.
He was born into poverty with only his mentally ill mother to care for him. His mother discovered his Flame of Wrath when he was very young and brought him to the Vongola Ninth. When she and Xanxus confronted the 9th and Xanxus showed his flame, he took Xanxus and placed his scarf around him, agreeing that he was indeed his son even though he had never seen the woman or her son before.
Eight years before the start of the Ring Conflict, Xanxus discovered his true heritage from Timoteo's diary, finding out he's not his real son and Timoteo has no intention to give him the position of the next Vongola Boss because he doesn't have Vongola Blood. This made Xanxus feel betrayed, thinking that he was only adopted out of whimp. Enraged by the revelation, Xanxus, along with the entire Varia members planned a rebellion, leading to the incident known as Cradle Affair. This rebellion, however, failed as Timoteo frozen him with Vongola Primo's technique, Zero Point Breakthrough: First Edition. Xanxus was frozen for eight years, heavily guarded, until someone unfrozen the ice and freed him.
