hero?it must be me

"Can't wait for this, that's right."

Zheng Qi looked directly at Dio who had revealed his face from the darkness.

"Huh? It seems that we are all a little anxious about each other's affairs."

Dio raised his finger and stroked his lower lip lightly: "This is a rare opportunity, let me ask you a question first, Zheng Qi."

"You, why do you want to be my enemy?"

Hearing this, Zheng Qi raised his eyebrows slightly.

"Jostar and the others are trying to save their daughter and mother's life. They are not afraid of sacrificing for it from the bottom of their hearts, and they are determined to be my enemy."

"Kakyoin and...um...by the way, it is Abdel and Polunaruf. The reason why they choose to be my enemy is because they stubbornly believe that if they cannot face my words, it is tantamount to avoiding their own life. , they feel remorse and shame for having surrendered to me for a time, and they risk their lives to do something to get back to their selves."

"Oh, that's ridiculous."

"However, such absurd things are quite important to them."

"They are all ready to dedicate themselves to this, and they are aware of it."

"But you are different, Zheng Qi."

Dio looked at Zheng Qi: "In my opinion, you don't have any reason to be my enemy."

"I have tried to investigate you, but your past is blank. The Joestar clan and my relationship have nothing to do with you, and I have never seen a talent like you, otherwise I would definitely have you in my pocket. "

"Then why?"

When he said this, Dior's face showed a little curiosity: "Why, you, who should have nothing to do with all of this, want to risk your life for a group of strangers?"

There are reasons, of course.

Among other things, you are my stumbling block just because I want to go home.

——In this case, Zheng Qi is not going to say it to Dio.

"Zheng Qi, have you ever thought about what is the purpose of human life?"

Dior continued: "I have always believed that people live to overcome fear and anxiety, so that they can feel at ease."

"Wealth, love, power... The reason why human beings want to obtain these is to make themselves live with peace of mind."

"It can be asserted like this - people live, just want to be at ease!"

"But what about you?"

"Choose to be my enemy, how can you feel at ease about such a thing?"

"Or……"

Sitting on the chair placed in the dark, Dior supported his head with one hand, and stared lazily at Zheng Qi: "Won't it make you feel more uneasy to face me alone like this?"

"Answer me, Zheng Qi, why did you choose to be my enemy?"

"……call."

Zheng Qi seemed to sigh.

"Mother used to say that."

He held out an index finger.

"The so-called [strength] is the power to make hope a reality."

"And the smallest unit of the so-called [strong] is the power to carry out one's will no matter what the circumstances."

"Do you want a reason to feel at ease? Then I'll give it to you. Listen up, Dio."

"There is only one reason why I choose to be your enemy, a simple reason."

The lonely index finger moved slowly, and finally pointed straight at Dio on the steps.

"It's an eyesore, you stumbling block."

"...Hmph, hum ha ha, ha ha ha ha!"

Facing Zheng Qi's speech, which can basically be defined as provocation, Dio suddenly laughed out loud after being silent for two seconds.

"It turned out that it was just for simple lunatics—I wanted to comment on you this way, but Zheng Qi, has anyone told you that you are not good at lying?"

Dior looked at Zheng Qi with great interest: "It seems that you also have a lot of little secrets. Anyway, those secrets can be kept for me to enjoy slowly as fun. Now, let's get straight to the point."

"Once, I'll give you a chance, Zheng Qi."

Dio also raised an index finger.

"You are an excellent talent, it is a pity to die here, so, as long as you take two steps back from that step now, I will open my arms and accept you as a companion."

"Conversely, if you are really ready to die..."

He smiled and hooked his index finger towards Zheng Qi: "Then come up along the steps."

"Oh?"

Hearing this, Zheng Qi grinned unconsciously.

The sharp and shiny teeth, like refined knives, are quite eye-catching in the dark corridor.

"Then, I'm welcome."

With that said, Zheng Qi raised his right foot——

then!

——Precisely, stepping on the next step! !

"..."

In the corridor, there was a moment of silence.

Zheng Qi didn't take another step immediately.

He stood there, stepped on the upper step, raised his head, and looked at Dio above.

On that face was a sneering smile that didn't hide its sarcasm.

"What's the matter, Dio? Is it such a surprise to you that I [could] step on this step?"

"..."

At some point, Dior had restrained the smile and laziness on his face.

He stared at Zheng Qi with a slightly serious gaze, his expression looked a little gloomy, and against the backdrop of that pale skin, his complexion seemed to be blue and purple.

Someone betrayed themselves.

This was the first thought that came to Dio's mind at this time.

But then, he changed his mind.

This guy Zheng Qi actually distributed the power of ripples all over his body in such a concealed way as a defense.

If I hadn't checked it more carefully before I acted, I would probably have been tricked at this time.

Ripples, this kind of power still made me feel a little tricky a hundred years ago. According to the data, Zheng Qi has the power of ripples, and it seems that what he said is indeed true.

Vanilla Ace would lose, perhaps because of his ignorance of Ripple.

However, since you are a Ripple user, you naturally know how powerful this power is against vampires, and you will use this method to prevent it when facing me, which is also reasonable.

I'm afraid this is the result of the betrayal of Horthos and Anubis's description to me, which made him wary.

As such...

Humph.

Times have changed, and I have never stopped evolving, Zheng Qi.

You ripple messengers are no longer a threat to me, Dior!

Turning his mind, Dio slowly stood up.

"...What a pity, Zheng Qi."

"You have chosen a wrong path, so..."

The expression on his face began to reveal the killing intent of Yu Yu.

"You can only die, Zheng Qi!"

Chapter 156 Chapter 150 Four: Dior: I'm curious!

"Then come and try!"

Suddenly, Zheng Qi's whole body burst out with intense golden flames!

It was a brilliant brilliance that was condensed by the fusion of the burning ripples fueled by his extraordinary life energy and the agitation in his body because of facing Dio.

Feeling the scorching breath that seemed to rush towards his face even though he was separated by a whole staircase, Dio frowned in disgust.

"Still relying on obsolete things like ripples until now, the obsolete things that have stopped evolving will be swept into the trash can, Zheng Qi!"

While speaking, behind Dior, a burly human figure suddenly appeared.

It is a human figure with yellow, silver gray, and green as the main impression colors. The overall shape is like a diver wearing a tight diving suit and carrying an oxygen cylinder. The strong and powerful muscles are stacked on the wide skeleton, showing A powerful and vigorous inverted triangle physique!

Under the yellow mask, a pair of cold eyes stared at Zheng Qi below. After receiving Dio's order, he immediately raised his fists and swooped down!

This is Dior's double, 【THE WORLD】!

Seeing [World] attacking, Zheng Qi was obviously not going to dodge, he also raised his giant fist, and went straight to meet [World].

For most substitute messengers, this is undoubtedly an extremely stupid approach.

Facing the 【World】, which is good at melee combat, as a human substitute messenger, he actually chooses to use his own body to deal with it. In most cases, this is not much different from suicide.

However, Zheng Qi did just that!

Bow people's prestige!Pride on the battlefield!

The heavy fist full of ripples swung towards [the world] at an astonishing speed!

Dio's double, [World], is the type that will feed back damage to the main body.

Although there is a difference in the degree of injury between touching Ripple with a stand-in and actually touching Ripple with your own limbs, whether you use the [World] or go into battle by yourself, touching Ripple will eventually bring disadvantages Impact.

Dior naturally knew this.

He, from the very beginning, had no intention of using fists and kicks to decide the outcome with Zheng Qi!

"call--"

Failed.

Zheng Qi's left fist missed!

It's not that there are no characters in the world who can avoid Zheng Qi's fist, but it seems extremely strange to fail this time.

The [world] that was right in front of my eyes suddenly disappeared!

To describe it, it's like when you go to the toilet, you have carefully checked that there is a bundle of rolls full of rolls that can be used before you go in, but when you finish everything and relax and want to complete the last step, you find that It was as if a bundle of roll papers suddenly disappeared.

For a split second, a sense of strangeness envelops you, followed by panic and disbelief.

Things that were close at hand in the last second, but disappeared without warning in front of you in the next second.

Especially when you are already concentrating on staring at that thing.

This kind of experience can even make people panic and uneasy.

why?

the reason is simple.

One is because he has personally witnessed some kind of unknown functioning, and the other is because he has instinctively realized that he has lost the ability to control his own life.

It was an unknown threat that suddenly appeared in front of him.

What Zheng Qi faced was this kind of experience.

Moreover, the change that happened without warning is not just the disappearance of [World]...

Also, the "curtain" of throwing knives that suddenly surrounded him!

Front, back, left, right, up, down—eyes, throat, heart, liver, lower genitals, rear—a "curtain" composed of dozens of flying knives, making Zheng Qi's whole body as a human body Vulnerable areas are shrouded in!
