Dimensional inventory, tribute to brilliant people.

In particular, driven by profit, not only the five members of the Stardust Crusaders covet Dio's power and wealth, but there is also a high possibility that some rats hiding in the dark will emerge and attack him. unfavorable!

All in all, in a 'stand-in' battle that focuses on intelligence and information and tests wisdom more, the 'stand-in messenger' whose abilities have been completely exposed will be at an absolute disadvantage and will be targeted crazily by the enemy. The danger will also rise rapidly. of frustration.

"Well...your descendants are very good."

In this regard, Dio, who was proud and arrogant, did not show a dejected expression.

Not only that, the corner of his mouth covered with green lipstick also raised an evil smile... He raised his hand, caressing the bright red serrations between his neck and scraping the strong and toned muscles, as if remembering, but also like... Taunting, making a weird compliment to the dead Jonathan Joestar.

Then, feeling slightly annoyed, he closed his eyes again and calculated his combat power against the enemy.

"That being the case, the only people left who can stop Joseph Joestar and Jotaro Kujo are Vanilla Asda, Brother Bee, and Petsha."

According to the battle situation in the video screen, Dio counted his remaining men with a troubled expression on his face.

After all, from the initial indifference to the current importance...the defeat of his soldiers one by one also had a big impact on Dio's mentality.

Who would have thought that, with the exception of Joseph Joestar, the Stardust Crusaders, who had no combat experience, could actually survive the pursuit of many professional killers and deal powerful blows to their enemies, weakening them. One's own fighting power.

"Hole Hoss... Tsk!"

That handsome cowboy with blond hair was even more of a thorn in Dio's eyes.

Needless to say, after seeing what was happening on the screen, Hall Hess in front of the video screen would definitely no longer accept his employment and continue to attack the Stardust Crusaders.

Not only him, but Yellow Temperance, Aresi...those guys who are greedy for life and afraid of death will most likely refuse employment and run away directly after discovering their miserable end.

Nowadays, the only people who can still be used by him are the few die-hard people in the mansion, except for 'Power' who doesn't have much thinking ability and a certain parrot.

"Sure enough, the bloodline of Joseph's family needs to be handled by me personally!"

With this in mind, Dio also stood up, walked towards the floor-to-ceiling mirror in the room, and admired his new body.

The descendants of Jonathan Joestar have finally defeated powerful enemies and killers, and are about to come before him to resolve the blood feud that has lasted for 100 years.

Of course, Dio will not be afraid of this, but will use his true strength to end it with them!

"I'm really looking forward to seeing how well the blood of the Joestar family can make me and Jonathan's bodies fit together?"

After saying this, a more evil smile filled the face of the blond vampire.

The fit between the head and the body will not only allow his own strength to develop to a more powerful level, the life energy linked to the 'substitute' should also be supported, further enhancing the ability of 'theworld', right?

When he thought of that intoxicating power, Dio couldn't help but want to sing a song to express the joy in his heart.

"Under the power of the world, no matter who it is, they can only surrender in front of me!"

After all, even the power of himself and theworld will be exposed to the enemy in the video of the 'Dimensional Editing System'.

However, due to the special nature of that power, even if the enemy knows the details, it is still irresistible!

Therefore, Dio never had the slightest doubt about his victory from beginning to end. There was no possibility for the 'Stardust Crusaders' to defeat him!

Not only him, but the audience in the video discussion area also gradually became excited and noticed after Joseph Joestar used the power of his mind to write on the photo on the dome on one side of the dio mansion. A sign that the war is coming.

As a result, everyone has begun to speculate a lot about the name and abilities of Dio's 'substitute'.

Little Bird Tour Rikka: "Now, there are not many 'hints' left in the Tarot cards. Who will be Dio's 'substitute'?"

Sakuya Izayoi: "No matter what, the 'substitute' ability of the final boss should be of an extremely powerful type, right?"

However, without any reference, everyone's discussion could not come to any result.

So, as the video played, everyone looked at the 'Stardust Crusaders' in the picture. In the process of inquiring about the photo, they met the gambler Darby.

Later, in order to obtain Dio's "substitute" ability and the location of the mansion, Polnareff and Joseph accepted the invitation of the gambler Darby to bet against him, and not surprisingly, under the enemy's clever tactics Under this, he was defeated one after another, and his soul was harvested by the 'substitute' ability and became a bargaining chip.

Fortunately, Jotaro Kujo, who is thoughtful, has strong psychological quality and acting skills, used various psychological pressures to make the gambler Dabi fall into deep self-doubt, and finally lost his confidence in gambling and victory. Quickly defeated.

As a result, with the psychological collapse of the gambler Darby, the 'substitute' ability was quickly released, allowing the defeated Joseph and Polnareff to return to everyone's eyes again, and the crisis was resolved!

However, Darby, a gambler who has become a madman, is obviously unable to fulfill his bet. He tells the secret of Dio's 'substitute' to the enemy 'Stardust Crusaders', making everyone and the audience happy and gainful. Disappointed.

However, this also allowed the five people waiting in front of the video screen to remember the appearance of Gambler Darby.

Anyway, they already know his "substitute" ability and his skills. When they actually embark on the journey, as long as they refuse his gambling request and directly attack the main body, there will be no problem.

This kind of thing is what Jotaro Kujo and Polnareff like to do the most.

Jan Pierre Polnareff: "Don't worry, leave it to me. The sword of the Silver Chariot will definitely make this shameless gambler who likes to gamble get the lesson he deserves!"

: "Bobo, my Superman!"

Then, the camera switched to Dio's mansion.

It was still the windowless room. In the dark world, Hall Hess, whom he hadn't seen for a long time, was reporting the situation to Dio with a nervous look on his face.

However, Dio, who was listening to the information, always turned his back to Hall Hess, which aroused his rebellious psychology.

Not only that, he had been demanding from the beginning to the end that Horhos continue to serve him and defeat the five people of the 'Stardust Crusaders'. The terrifying and heavy feeling of oppression made people's hearts tremble.

Finally, Hall Hess had the idea of ​​​​rebellion!

"Look... think about it carefully... Instead of fighting Joseph and his group, this guy only has one person. As long as he takes advantage of his unpreparedness and blows his brain into rubbish, everything can be easily solved! "

'Emperor' appeared in his hand, and Hall Hoss raised his gun without hesitation and aimed it at the back of Dio's head.

There is no doubt that he is ready to kill Dio.

However......

"Are you really going to shoot me?"

Dio, who didn't even look back and whose back was full of flaws, noticed Hole Hess's movements and asked.

"Snapped!"

The book he held in his hands quietly fell to the ground, raising a low dust.

"Forehead?!"

Hall Hes suddenly realized that Dio, who was sitting in front of him just now, had disappeared without knowing it. He was no longer on the sofa, and his whereabouts were unknown!

At the same time, the audience waiting in front of the video screen was also very alert, staring at the screen attentively, and their interest was aroused by Dio's performance.

There is no doubt that the "instant disappearance" just now is Dio's 'substitute' ability!

But, what is the true nature of that ability?

"I admire you very much..."

An evil deep voice sounded in the ears of Hol Hess.

Dio, who was in the darkness, unexpectedly came to the back of Holl Hess in an instant without anyone noticing. He was calm and didn't look anything out of the ordinary.

"The moment you tried to kill me, there was no sweating or breathing disorder."

The tone was as usual. Faced with Hol Hoss's rebellion against him, Dio did not show any anger. He just praised softly and said: "As expected of Hole Hoss, you are very calm."

After saying that, he turned around and left without even the intention of fighting back.

In the end, only Hall Hess, whose body was stiff, was still standing there, not daring to move.

"He...how did he move?"

Hall Hess's voice expressed everyone's doubts.

"I didn't see it, that's all...how did he move behind me without breaking the spider web?"

In an instant, fear struck, and cold sweat covered Hole Hess's back.

"It's hard to understand. Was that move just now Dio's 'substitute' theworld?"

There is no doubt that if Dio is willing, he can even give Hol Hos a fatal blow when he is unable to detect it!

That kind of imperceptible movement method is enough to make Dio invincible in any battle...

However, when faced with Hall Hess, who was rebellious towards him, Dio did not have the idea of ​​killing him, but only admired his courage and determination?

Finally, the audience waiting in front of the video screen also understood the reason why Dio could make so many of his subordinates willingly sacrifice their lives for him... That magnanimous mind and magical charm, for bad guys with evil intentions, Absolutely deadly poison!

There is no better savior for the wicked than this!

Moreover, through the words of Hall Hess, everyone also successfully understood that Dio's 'substitute' is the world in the Tarot cards, which has the hint of 'the world'!

Oriental Fantasyland, Scarlet Devil Mansion.

"Dio's ability...could it be said...that he can't do it?"

Sitting between the exquisite thrones in the luxurious palace, a blue-haired girl wearing cute clothes was staring at the video screen in trance, and her words were filled with incredible emotions.

Just now, Dio's weird movement method may be considered a "teleportation" move in the eyes of others.

However, there was a familiar feeling in her eyes.

"Sakuya, are you there?"

Raising her head, facing the empty hall, she called out the maid's name.

"I'm here, what are your orders, young lady?"

The next moment, a chic girl wearing a maid uniform appeared on the side of the throne.

Seeing this, the blue-haired little girl nodded secretly in her heart and said "Sure enough" - her perfect and chic head maid uses the same movement method as Dio's ability!

However, as the head of the family, I cannot expose the joy in my heart and must maintain a majestic posture!

"Sakuya...have you noticed any clues about Dio's ability?"

"Miss, that blond vampire should also have the ability to stop time. You can feel the time stopping, thanks to the immersive viewing experience of the 'dimensional editing system'."

Facing the cute and mature look of her eldest daughter, Izayoi Sakuya's heart trembled, her nose itched, and it seemed that "loyalty" was about to flow out, but she still responded to her question meticulously.

Sure enough, Remilia Scarlet is the cutest person in the world!

"Well~ I know!"

The guess was correct. The bright red young moon couldn't help but smile with satisfaction.

At the same time, in the video screen, Hall Hess, who was successfully shocked by Dio, finally strengthened his surrender and decided to completely return to his heart and help him deal with the five people of the 'Stardust Crusaders'!

For this reason, he specially kidnapped Boingo and planned to use the foreknowledge of 'Toto God' and the bullets of 'Emperor' to assassinate the enemy!

As a result, the pairing of the two comedians naturally caused a lot of jokes. In the end, they failed to solve the enemy as expected, but ended up with a miserable end, which made people sigh.

In this way, Hall Hess, who was waiting in front of the video screen, completely determined his idea of ​​​​running away and no longer had any relationship with the people on Dio's side.

As for Dio's 'substitute' ability... the person who surrendered to it was the Hollows in the video screen, not the Hollows in front of the screen, so he had no psychological burden at all!

Later, in order to successfully find the mansion where Dio was located, Joseph Joestar asked a short man dressed as a beggar, but under his robe he looked like a successful person to help him and others find their destination.

In response, the man who got the photo said that he would help them find the results within three hours.

Unexpectedly, Iqi and the man who were wandering in the city found Dio's mansion together... As a result, the latter was killed by the guard of the mansion, the eagle who had mastered the ice 'substitute'. , the former was also targeted by it and launched a fierce chase!

Finally, after a heart-wrenching desperate battle, Iqi finally killed the falcon that was chasing him, but he had no choice but to break a leg and was seriously injured.

However, with amazing willpower, it finally returned to the city step by step and came to the front of its companions.

At the same time, Kakyoin Noriaki, who was recuperating in the hospital, also appeared in front of everyone... Obviously, he cared about his companions. After recovering from his injuries, he quickly came over and planned to participate in the final battle!

For a moment, the enthusiastic Abdel and Polnareff also happily ran forward to greet Kakyoin.

Finally, under the leadership of Iggy, the 'Stardust Crusaders' finally arrived at their final destination - Dio's mansion!

"Our journey..."

"The end is finally here!"

Chapter 178 YES!YES!YES!

The moment of end is coming quietly!

The end of the journey has been reached!

At this moment, the mansion standing in front of the 'Stardust Crusaders' exudes a heart-stopping and strange demonic nature that makes everyone shudder, like a gloomy hell and a lair of death!

Iqi, who was standing at the front, was gnashing his teeth, and his three remaining claws were clinging to the ground... His slightly trembling petite body and ferocious expression showed the anger and dissatisfaction in his heart.

Behind them, five men stood in a row, as tall and straight as they had when they set out.

Even though they might suffer painful injuries and lose their precious lives in the ensuing battle, the five men and a fierce dog did not show any hesitation or fear!

Their eyes were shining with bright stars!
