stand-in creed

Hearing the word "gambling", Abdel immediately reacted like a conditioned reflex, reminding Joseph beside him.

Joseph nodded.

Just when Joseph was about to say something, there was a sudden commotion from behind.

Boom!

There was the sound of the wall being destroyed.

Immediately afterwards, the sound of footsteps from far to near echoed in everyone's ears.

enemy?

Allies?

Whether it was Joseph and Abdel, or Darby Jr. and "Cesar", they all looked cautiously in the direction of the footsteps.

And what came into view was a face strikingly similar to that of "Xi Sa".

The visitor leaned against the door frame of the restaurant, posing in a rather arrogant posture, brushing past the faces of everyone in the center of the restaurant, and deliberately stayed on Magician Zhihong's body for two more seconds.

"This double is Magician's Red. It seems that Abdel is the real thing. But just in case, Mr. Joestar, can you show me your "Purple Hermit"?" "

"Nero——!!!"

Chapter 56 Atum God II

The person who caught the eyes of Joseph and Abdel was Nero Zeppelin.

Listening to Nero's words, Joseph showed his stand-in without the slightest hesitation, and purple thorns blooming with rippling brilliance emerged around him.

Abdel said quickly.

"Nero, what about Kakyoin and the others?!"

"I was with me, but suddenly I was attacked by the enemy "God Knum", and at the same time, the enemy cooperated with the ship's substitute to take Kakyoin away like Polnareff. "

"That's it."

Abdel sighed.

Joseph frowned slightly: "Where is that enemy?"

Nero put his left hand in his pocket, spread his right hand casually, and walked towards Abdel.

"It's solved! While crying and begging for mercy, I also told some information by the way-the "grandfather" and "Ms. Holly" in front of me are fakes!It is a fake doll made of clay by the enemy's stand-in messenger "Judgment". "

"Puppets? In other words - just beat them all up, right!"

Abdel immediately showed a malicious smile, and together with the magician's red, he looked directly at the several dark-faced enemies ahead.

Especially little Darby no longer had the leeway before, biting his lip and taking a step back.

However, at this moment, Joseph suddenly yelled.

"Get away from that Nero!Abdel—! ! ! "

boom!

A gunshot came from Nero's left hand pocket.

The edge of the hole in the pocket was scorched black, emitting blue smoke.The bullet fired from the pistol hidden in his pocket pierced Abdel's chest, causing the fortune-teller to roll his eyes and fall to the ground with an expression of disbelief.

Just as "Nero" took out his gun openly and prepared to fire a few more shots, Joseph's figure had already arrived.

"—Ripple rush away!!!"

The rippled right fist slammed firmly on the cheek of "Nero", sending one of the fists flying, and at the same time, the other left hand disarmed the gun.

boom!

The fake knocked over a table and chair and slammed into the wall of the restaurant with a bang. A big mouthful of blood spit out from the corner of his mouth, but there was a smile of success on his face.

"I am the stand-in messenger who holds the "God Knum", Oyingo!

"The disguise of my stand-in ability should be perfect. Even before you guys came, I have been rehearsing over and over again under the watchful eyes of Lord Dior! Why can you see it!"

Accompanied by such words.

The visitor grabbed his own face and kneaded it like kneading dough, turning back to his original face.

Joseph checked Abdel's injury.

After confirming that the ballistic trajectory avoided fatal injuries—not because the opponent was merciful, but because the opponent was indeed inaccurate—he was a little relieved.

Immediately Joseph said coldly.

"The acting that Dior rehearsed for you? No wonder I was really fooled by you in the first place.

"Did you say something like 'Just in case, Mister Joestar, can you show me your purple hermit' when you entered the door?It also means that there are substitute messengers who can pretend to be other people in this ship, and a substitute must be used to identify them.

"Nero is a thoughtful man.

"Although your disguised Nero has shown his thoughtful side, it is not enough! If it is the real Nero, when he says something like this, not only will Abdel and I show up as substitutes, but he himself will definitely use it as a substitute. Show us "Stairway to Heaven"! "

The stand-in messenger of the god Knum rubbed his face that had been punched by the old thing, and his face was slightly paralyzed and even his teeth were leaking.

Standing up from the ground, the man shouted.

"So what if it turns out? Anyway, our plan did work out—right, Darby!"

"Yes."

God Atum raised his fist casually, and knocked the useless natives "Xisa" and "He Li" back into the dust.

Immediately, Little Darby and his double walked towards Joseph calmly.

"Joseph Joestar.

"Your purple hermit's ability is to read and write, and the thorn-shaped stand-in itself lacks the most basic attack power. Even if you are the Ripple Messenger, do you really have the ability to fight back in front of my "God Atum"?

"In the final analysis, Ripple is just a technique developed by humans to get close to the double. Ripple is no match for the double anyway! Now that Abdel has fallen, you are no longer my opponent without the support of Magician Red!"

Darby's voice fell.

God Atum in front of him posed like a boxer in the ring.

Looking at God Atum's posture, Joseph took a deep breath: "Aren't you a gambler? Why do you pose like a boxer?"

"Because my "God Atum" is mediocre in terms of strength, speed, and precision, any of the six of you can easily defeat me—except your Hermit Purple! "

"We are really underestimated... Your next sentence is, the purple of the hermit is the weakest stand-in, can you be eliminated by hand-to-hand combat?"

"The Hermit's Purple is the weakest stand-in, and you can get rid of you by melee...huh?" Darby was stunned for a moment, but then laughed again.

"No, it might be better to say that hand-to-hand combat may have a better chance of winning! In my soul doll collection, there is a Japanese boy named Long Yan who is very good at video games, and his IQ is as high as 190. It took me a lot of effort to deal with him What! And you who can see through my thoughts, Joseph Joestar, may be far superior to that young man in terms of wits, and you may not be able to win you at the gambling table, right?

"But even if you can see through my thoughts, so what? I can also see through yours!

"Get ready, Joseph Joestar! I'm going to make a punch announcement like a baseball player makes a pitch announcement when he's confident, and I'm going to hit you in the face with my right fist! Where are you going dodge?

"Left? Right? Back?"

No no no!

No no no!

No no no!

"……Um?"

Darby felt something was wrong.

Whoosh!

God Atum punched Joseph directly in the face.

This punch was extremely terrifying.

Destructive power: D

Speed: C

Precision: D

Range distance: D

It was so frightening that Oyingo on the side widened his eyes, because in Oyingo's sight, Joseph Joestar, an elderly man, clenched his fists tightly with shining ripples and was like a "fist" by the purple hermit The fists that were tightly bound like a "set" also raised a fist to meet him.

Looking at this scene, Little Darby exclaimed: "You old man, don't you want to fight my "God Atum"—! ! ! "

"Yes! Yes! Yes! Ripple sprint!!!"

There was no need to ask Joseph's soul at all, Joseph's mouth directly replaced the soul and said the answer openly.

boom!

Fist meets fist, and there is a dull collision.

"It's scary! It's scary, your Atum God is really scary, I've never seen a fist as strong as your Atum God—"

Looking at Joseph Joestar's playful expression, the dark-faced Darby took a deep breath.

Blood pressure is a little high.

Chapter 57 Atum God III

The development of things is not the same as what Darby thought.

From the gambler's point of view, this battle should have been a one-sided bullying, but the development of the situation on the court was not as easy as he thought.Even conversely, it turned out that he himself fell into a hard fight with Atum God.

"Left fist? Right fist? Or..."

No no no!

No no no!

Before little Darby could finish asking, Joseph's right leg had already swept over him.

"It's the right leg, Bobby-kun!

"During a battle, how can anyone confirm all the possibilities one by one like a purchaser making a list? Can you count them?"

The voice did not fall.

The moment Joseph raised his right foot, Atum subconsciously crossed his arms in front of him.

However, Joseph's right foot that had just been raised suddenly hit the ground and took it as the axis, and with a 360-degree rotation around the body, the heel of his left foot fiercely swept towards Atum's head.

"Looking at your posture, you must have learned boxing for a few days, right?

"But, your level is nothing more than a hobbyist's level after all. Don't use your hobbies to challenge my major, Barbie-kun!"

boom!

The heel slammed on Atum God's temple fiercely, and Darby's head buzzed for a while, and blood spit out from the mouth.

"Wow!"

Darby took a step back helplessly, half kneeling on the ground.

Looking at the majestic Joseph in front of him, Darby reached out and wiped the blood on his mouth.

"...cough cough cough! Are you really 68 years old this year?"

"Yes! Yes! Yes!"

The voice just fell.

Joseph directly picked up the handed-in gun and aimed it abruptly at the right, aiming at Oyingo, the stand-in messenger of "God Knum", who was creeping around.

The corner of Joseph's mouth twitched: "Hey, hey, are you going to run away? You haven't realized it at all. This is really good news..."

Brother Oying didn't dare to move: "Okay, good news?"

Bang bang bang!

The next moment, Joseph pulled the trigger directly, shooting Oyingo's leg four times, his body and his arm.

"Wow ah ah ah-!"

Oyingo, who was bleeding all over the ground, burst into tears of pain and screamed on the ground.

Joseph put the gun in his pocket and pulled his hat.
