78 End Of The World Part 1 (2/2)
…
”Is that Dio's secret?!
The ability to stop time?!
I've got it Kakyoin!
I'v gotthe message you gave up your life for!!” Joseph shouted... curiously without Dio listening ... while he was surprised and frightened by the terrifying and almost invincible ability of Dio's Stand during the chase.
Until…
”HM!
HE'S GONE” Shouted Mr Joestar upon realize at some moment during the persecution Dio had disappeared, but…
Actually he was right behind his back with The World ready to give him the final blow, but… before hitting the defenseless old man... The World was forcibly stopped for some reason ...
And for some reason ... Joseph did not seem at all relieved ”W ... What's wrong?
You're not attacking?
Don't you want my blood, Dio?” Mr Joestar said in a way between surprise and provocation
But Dio, like a cruel, experienced and calculating villain was not fooled like others Aztec vampires bodybuilders a few decades ago decadas ”You are using your Hamon to protect you..,
You wrapped yourself with Hermit Purple and Hamon…
You are Smart. I can't underestimate you”
”Mmm… I could say the same about you…
You saw throught my plan and didn't attack me.
Very Cautious” Joseph said quite frustrated and with cold sweat showing the Hermit Purple with Hamon that he had under his clothes.
Proving that Dio was right, if he had attacked him, he could have been seriously injured because of the hamon.
And since his mortal enemy had disrupted his ingenious plan, he had to counterattack ... verbally
”However, I know the weakness of your stand
There's a limit to the amount of time you can stop, right?
About 3 to 4 seconds?
If you could stop it longer we would have been killed in the mansion.
You wouldn't have to come after us like this” Said Mr Joestar explaining the power and weakness of Dio, either to provoke him, to verify if he was right by his overexpression or to explain it to the spectator who had not yet noticed.
”So now you know my sand power
You are good” He said something impressed
”The one wo got it was Kakioin
I'm not going to waste his death !!!” Joseph said with determination before the mortal enemy of his family.
But even though Dio was impressed by Joseph for having discovered the secret of his Stand so quickly, he did not despair, he did not bother.
”SO WHAT?!
What does it matter if you know?
What can you do?” Dio said with confidence and arrogance, he believed that his power was absolute despite the small limitations it had.
”Hermit purple and hamon !!” Joseph attacked with his most effective attack against vampires... announcing his attack as in almost any other shonen manga or anime.
”You are really persistent!!!
However, I don't have to touch you hamon to attack you!!” Dio said as The World destroyed the roof where Joseph was standing, causing him to fall from the building
The old Mr. Joestar tried to use Hermit Purple to attach himself to a valcon and thus make the fall less deadly than it would be, but...
”Hey?! What has happened?” Joseph said as he fell to the ground quite surprised.
Despite having been able to hold on to that balcony in the last second, the impact of the fall should have been quite dangerous for any human's body, regardless of whether he was an expert Hamon master or not.
He should have wounds and possibly some broken bone ... however he did not have any injuries, it was as if something had stopped his fall.
But that was not the time to be surprised by that, since Dio was coming flying towards him to suck all his blood ...
And while the idiots of a nearby restaurant laughed at Joseph's fall, instead of helping him to stand up, as it should be done with any old man who falls to the ground...
Then Joseph found Jotaro, his grandson, who had run to his help upon see that Dio was chasing him ”J… Jotaro!!!
GET AWAY!!
DON'T COME ANY CLOSSER!!!”
And at that moment both Jotaro and the poor cat in the street noticed the presence of Dio, who was few meters behind Joseph
”Jotaro ...
Good ...
But he's a bit out of my range at the moment...
I'll deal with Joseph first” Said Dio falling from the sky
”The secret behind his stand is time!!!
His stand is able to stop time...” Joseph said, trying to pa.s.s the message to his grandson, in case it was too late for him, but...
ZA WARUDO!!!
Time stopped once more ...
And in that s.p.a.ce of time stopped Dio spoke again for himself instead of doing something useful ”At first i was only able to stop time for one second.
As the scar on my neck healed I could stop it for two seconds… tree at most…”
And as he moved peacefully towards Joseph hitting anyone on the road, including the poor cat which he dismembered and scattered his viscera in the food of the restaurant people... he continued with his speech ”Now i can stop it for five secons.
It's odd that you can still count time after it has stopped, but it's about five secons.
Sooner or later I'll be able to stop it for one minute… then minutes… one hour… then possibly indefinitely…
I am awaiting that day very much…”
And after checking that Joseph had covered his body with Hamon again, Dio chose to use another method to kill him without touching him directly.
Dio pulled a knife from his jacket ” The hamon which gave me trouble 100 years ago… is useless in front of The World” and perparating to throw his knife scream repeatedly ”MUDA MUDA MUDA MUDA MUDA MUDA MUDA MUDA MUDA MUDA MUDA MUDA MUDA MUDA”
But…
”Hey!!!!
What happened?!!!” Dio said very alert and even terrified to see that the knife in his hand had mysteriously disappeared
And when he turned around in search of an explanation ... he saw something very disconcerting...
In his s.p.a.ce of time stopped, a strange person of whom he had no knowledge, held the knife that until few tenths of a second was in his hand.
A strange tall, muscled person (like almost everyone in this part of the manga), with red hair... a third eye on his forehead and a red monkey tail dancing in the air.
That man was sitting quietly eating in the restaurant where Dio had hit everything around him, a strange humanoid stone statue on his feet, with Dio knife in one hand and ... the arrow that created Stand users...o...b..ting around him.
”Is it that one cannot eat quietly in a restaurant in Egypt without an evil vampire stopping the time and start boasting of his power while trying to kill a poor old man by throwing a knife shouting Muda as a r.e.t.a.r.d?” Said Broly, pretending to be aggrieved by the situation pus.h.i.+ng the plate of food away from his table
”NANIIIIII???!!!” Dio shouted, his brain overheated due to so many terribly unexpected things happening at the last moment.
