Considering you said you'd write more about Demon king Mukuro and Hero Tsuna if we were specific I have things I wanna know about.
1: After Tsuna kicks Mukuro's butt does he just let the zombie cops take him?
2: The aftermath- cause are you telling me no one is confused about how Tsuna had met in Italian criminal before Reborn showed up?
3: CHROME
That does give me some ideas! Mostly for the first and second questions, but I think the Chrome situation would be roughly the same?

"Deal," says Tsuna.
"Dame-Tsuna," Reborn says warningly, but Mukuro has already reached out to grasp his hand. Just like back then, chains burst from their palms, shackling their wrists to bind them together. Tsuna stares Mukuro straight in the eyes, reading triumph--but also relief, and he knows he made the right choice.
It only takes a few seconds for the pact to complete. The magic circle glows on the back of their hands briefly before fading, and they let go.
Tsuna nods firmly. "Get your friends out of here, quickly," he says. "If you don't get in contact..."
Mukuro snorts. "I know better than you what will happen. We'll be in touch. Don't forget." He smirks, tilting his head pointedly. "Arrivederci, Hero." The room is enshrouded in absolute darkness for a moment, and when it retreats, Mukuro and his companions are gone.
Tsuna looks down at his hand. It's blank, but he can still feel the stamp tingling underneath his skin. It's funny, he thinks, how the last magic he used in the other world and the first that he used in this one ended up being the same.
Distracted as he is, it's with trained instinct that he's able to dodge Reborn's flying kick, ducking and rolling out of the way before his mind catches up to what just happened.
Standing in front of him, Reborn is furious. None of his usual lackadaisical expressions can be seen, fake or otherwise. "What have you done, Dame-Tsuna? What was that?"
The others are all unconscious. It's just them now, and the figures outside the door who are sure to come through at any moment.
Tsuna flexes his fingers. Reborn is more likely to tell that so-called mafia police what happened than keep his mouth shut, and Tsuna doesn't want to risk the consequences of a broken deal. Neither does he want to put the Demon King back in a prison when they already worked together once to break them both out.
There's only one thing he can do with so little time.
Now that he's used it once, it's easy to find the magic in him again. Mukuro's suggestion has merit, but he's never liked erasure spells. He prefers locks.
"Sorry, Reborn," he says apologetically, looking back up at his small, mortal tutor. "I can't break the deal, but I promise this won't be permanent." And as the doors begin to creak open, he reaches out.
