hero?it must be me

——In the round part of the chips that should be blank, there is a sleeping face engraved.

That, impressively belonged to Er Qiao, the face that belonged to Joseph Joestar!

Chapter 125 Chapter 120 Chapter Three: I Bet With You

"This, this is!"

Abudel looked shocked: "Mr. Joestar?!"

"how come?"

Kakyoin looked at the chips in Darby's hand in surprise.

"Hey, Abdel, are you sure about the morning..."

Polnareff asked.

"I'm sure Mr. Joestar will be in good health when I come down to join you!"

There were a few beads of sweat on Abdel's forehead, and he stared closely at the chip in Darby's hand: "Could it be that it was after we left the hotel—how could it be possible in such a short time?"

"uh-huh."

Seeing the changes in the expressions of the group, Darby had a satisfied smile on his face.

"It seems that I don't need to explain the ability of my substitute, [God Osiris], everyone."

Yes, it is not necessary.

A long time ago, Zheng Qi had explained to them in detail what kind of abilities Daniel OJo Darby's substitute, 【God Osiris】had.

To put it simply, when the other party agrees to gamble with his own soul, if the other party loses, the other party's soul can be stripped from his body and made into Darby's favorite chip collection.

for example……

"However, I still hope to introduce my collection to you."

With that said, Darby picked up a book like a stamp collection from the table, and unfolded it to Jotaro and the others.

In that book, on every page, round chips engraved with human faces are neatly placed!

“1984年9月22日夜里11点15分，诸位可还记得自己当时在做什么吗？”

"My words, I remember very clearly..."

As he spoke, he stretched out his finger and pointed to one of the round chips.

"At the time, I was in California, and there was a man named Stephen Moore betting with me, and he was right here."

"The one below is his father, and the one next to him is his wife."

"Since you already know my abilities, you should understand."

Holding a round chip engraved with Er Qiao's face between two fingers, Darby said with a smile: "If you want to get back Joseph Joestar's soul, you have to bet with me."

"In order to make it easier for you to gamble with me, I even divided his soul into five shares first."

While talking, Darby took out four more chips with Er Qiao's face engraved on them from his arms.

"In this way, all five of you will have the opportunity to gamble with my soul. Maybe one of you will be able to successfully take the soul of Joseph Joestar..."

"Of course, if you don't mind leaving him behind, you can just turn around and run away, or try to kill me, and let Joseph Joestar's soul die with me."

"So, what do you decide to do?"

"..."

Staring at Darby with a leisurely posture, everyone's expressions showed tension and seriousness.

"……I have a question."

Kakyoin suddenly said.

"Noriaki Kakyoin, right? Do you have any questions? Tell me."

Darby leaned back and asked with a smile.

"Since you took Mr. Joestar's soul, where is Mr. Joestar's body now?"

Kakyoin stared straight into Darby's eyes: "I need to confirm that Mr. Joestar's body is safe, otherwise, even if you release your soul after defeat, we will have no way of knowing whether you have damaged Mr. Joestar's body." flesh."

"You don't seem to understand the current situation, Kakyoin-kun."

Darby stroked his mustache: "Now, it's up to you to satisfy my desire to win and win back Joseph Joestar's soul from me, instead of me begging you to bet with me .”

"Forget it, since you guys are really so uninterested, then I'll take the first step. Anyway, I've got the soul of Joseph Joestar. Even if I go back to Lord Dior, I'm enough to make a deal."

With that said, Darby was about to get up, and it seemed that he was really planning to pack his things and leave.

"stop!"

Polnareff was the first to bear it.

He called out the chariot, raised his sword and forced Darby to face him.

"Oh? Do you want to use violence to solve the status quo? It's a good idea."

"However, everyone, have you ever thought about it, since I can divide this chip into five, it is considered as really wanting to destroy it, so why is it so difficult?"

While speaking, a strong and strange figure appeared behind Darby.

It was his double, the god Osiris!

"Indeed, the soul of Joseph Joestar is the bargaining chip that I can leave safely under your noses, but if you want to torture me in a way that won't kill me, so as to force me to submit If you hand it over, I suggest you give it up."

"To be honest, I am indeed a person who is afraid of death and pain, but even if I am like this, I still have my own pride."

"If I realize that you have such intentions, then I will immediately let God Osiris destroy Joseph Joestar's soul, or simply kill myself and let him be buried with me."

"Especially the two of you, Jotaro and Polnareff, I know that your doubles are fast, but no matter how fast you are, how sure are you that you can lift the spell of Osiris without killing me?" What about spells? Don’t forget, the soul chip is the creation of my stand-in ability after all, and the one who understands it best is me, the holder. Even if the limbs are paralyzed or fainted, as long as I don’t admit defeat in [gambling], their souls will never be destroyed. Impossible to be liberated!"

"And I just don't want my precious collection to be damaged... But if necessary, I can destroy them at any time."

Darby tilted his head forward slightly confidently, and placed his forehead within a millimeter of the silver chariot's sword tip.

"If you don't believe me, do you want to try it now?"

"……whispering sound!"

Unwillingly, Polnareff made the silver chariot withdraw his sword.

He didn't dare to gamble.

Just like everyone else in the room.

Even if everyone realized that Er Qiao's soul chip in Darby's hand might be fake, they didn't dare to really bet on it.

What if it was true?

If Er Qiao's soul really turned into a bargaining chip, then, as Darby said, any violence against him may cause him to be cruel to Er Qiao's soul.

This is Yang Conspiracy.

In such a short period of time, Er Qiao, who already knew the existence of a substitute like the god Osiris, could be so easily won by Darby for his soul?

——Jotaro and the others have this kind of doubt in their hearts.

But they dare not gamble.

At least they couldn't gamble until they caught Darby's tell.

And if you want Darby to show his flaws...

"and many more."

Jotaro suddenly spoke up.

He looked at Darby and said without changing his expression, "I'll bet with you."

Chapter 126 Chapter 120 Four: Beep!

"Good."

Darby snapped his fingers.

"Jotaro?! Wait, now—"

"If that's really the old man's soul."

Jotaro interrupted Abdel's excited words: "Once this guy is out of our sight, it's hard to guarantee whether he will choose to do something to the old man's soul because of Dior."

With that said, Jotaro sat across from Darby.

"And, as long as I win here, there won't be any problems."

"Oh! But, but, Zheng Qi reminded, this guy is a professional old man, a seasoned gambler through and through, you—"

Just when Abdel was about to persuade, Kakyoin reached out and pressed his shoulder.

"Just trust Jotaro here, he must have thought of something, and he did it with confidence."

"but……"

Looking at Jotaro's determined expression, Abdel hesitated to speak, and had no choice but to let go of his hand.

"Although I like your confidence, Jotaro, your friends don't seem to think so."

"Get your poker handy, Darby."

Jotaro put his hands in his pockets, raised his chin, and looked down at Darby who was sitting opposite him: "You are also eager to get a person's soul first, and use it as a really useful bargaining chip."

"After all, even if someone is dragging the old man and the others in the hotel now, I'm afraid they are not Zheng Qi's all-in-one enemy."

"Hmph, what are you talking about, Jotaro?"

Picking up the poker with a smile, Darby looked at Jotaro: "Okay, what do you want to do?"

"Do you still need to ask?"

Jotaro twitched the corner of his mouth slightly: "Of course we have to use poker to decide the outcome."

"Varied?!"

This time, not only Abdel, Polnareff and Kakyoin were also stunned.

"--interesting!"

Hearing that, the smile on Darby's face was even bigger: "Poker is one of my best gambling games. You are really kind, Jotaro."

"Cheng, Jotaro, what are you thinking?! You actually use poker?!"

Abdel exclaimed: "If he really wins Mr. Joestar's soul, then his gambling and thousands of skills are really better than Mr. Joestar!"

"don’t worry."

Jotaro still didn't change his face.

"Let me tell you, as long as I win, there won't be any problems."

"Hey, that's incredible confidence, Jotaro."

"Before our gamble begins, I would like to conduct an experiment."

Jotaro raised his chin: "You shuffle this deck first."

"Ok?"

Darby raised his eyebrows, puzzled, but complied.

A set of smooth and pleasing shuffling moves fully demonstrates the skills of an old gambler.

"It's done, but what do you want to do?"

"Choose a position from the deck at random, turn over a card, and see it for yourself, don't let others see it."

"Humph……"

Darby did so, looking at the cards.

"and then?"

"Let me guess, it's the 3 of spades."

"Ok?"
