One Piece: The World King Who Emerged from the White Town

Could it be that the other person is also a Stand user, just like him?

Aside from this explanation, ordinary people shouldn't be able to see the existence of Stand users at all!

The truth has come out!

Bucciarati guessed that the Stand user's ability was likely of the 'self-enhancement' type, although he had never seen it before, but that didn't mean it didn't exist.

After all, he had only met a few Stand users.

"So that's how it is. You're a Stand user too. In that case, I, Bucciarati, accept your challenge!"

As Bucciarati spoke, he used his Stand ability to slit open the carriage, then crawled inside, the zipper quickly disappearing from sight.

In terms of direct combat ability, he admitted that he and his Stand were indeed inferior to this guy.

But when it comes to escaping and stealth, his [Steel Chain Fingers] have something to say.

His Stand, Chain Fingers, has the ability to create "zippers" on any object through hand contact, and to create highly practical "zipper spaces".

This can then be used for things like teleporting people and things, breaking down objects, and hiding inside.

After the "zipper" is unzipped, objects with different properties that the zipper touched will still be connected together in a relatively natural way.

For example, taking off one's own arm and attaching someone else's arm to oneself.

It was precisely because of this ability that Bucciarati was able to leave with such confidence.

He did not actually agree to Abel's bet proposal, but rather wanted to create distance and avoid direct combat.

His Stand ability makes him more suited to be an assassin who can hide his whereabouts!

Imagine this: you're sleeping at night, and suddenly a zipper opens on the ceiling, and an arm extends out, a gun pointed downwards...

When eating, sleeping, taking a bath, or even having fun with a beautiful woman, you must be wary of Bucciarati, who may suddenly appear from anywhere to assassinate you.

Anyone would break down if this continued for a while!

"not good!"

Giorno quickly realized how dangerous his situation would be if he let his opponent escape.

Although it's unclear why Abel is helping him, the primary objective now is to prevent Bucciarati from escaping!

His expression changed, and without complaining about Abel letting him escape, he immediately smashed the window next to him and chased after Bucciarati, who was running away ahead.

Abel chuckled lightly, "Are all young people these days so impatient?"

At this time, Abel was only 16 years old, just one year older than Giorno, yet he kept calling him "young man."

In contrast, Bucciarati is already 20 years old.

On the other side, Bucciarati was fleeing at top speed, with Giorno hot on his heels.

This made Bucciarati wonder, where did that guy go? Wasn't he afraid of losing him? Or was he really that confident?

No, perhaps we should think about it the other way around...

Could it be that the previous suggestion was just a trick to get him to leave on his own?

But if that were the case, why would Giorno Giovanna chase after him so desperately?

It's so weird.

As Bucciarati turned the corner, he glanced back out of the corner of his eye, and then suddenly summoned his Stand, "Finger Chains," to attack Giorno!

Regardless of what that mysterious guy is up to, since Giorno dares to chase after us, he'll take care of one of them first.

But just then, something happened that made Bucciarati suddenly open his eyes wide.

Just as his [Steel Chain Fingers] charged forward, a Stand entirely made of gold appeared in front of Giorno, which then punched away the unsuspecting [Steel Chain Fingers].

"So you're a Stand user too! I see, you're in cahoots with that guy from earlier!"

It's unclear what exactly Bucciarati came up with in that brief moment, but he suddenly had an expression of realization.

Giorno, disregarding everything else, seized the opportunity when [Giant Chain Fingers] was knocked aside and controlled his Stand [Gold Experience] to deliver a heavy punch to Bucciarati's face, knocking out one of his teeth.

Furthermore, after being hit, Bucciarati's consciousness began to go berserk due to the excessive life energy injected into him, while his body could not keep up with his rampaging consciousness.

His consciousness had drifted outside his body, and everything seemed to be in slow motion.

What shocked him even more was that he could no longer control his body.

He could only watch helplessly as Giorno's Stand rushed over and punched him again.

At that moment, he suddenly felt a pang of regret.

I was too careless. I should have just kept running away. Why did I have to turn around and fight back?

Bang!

Just a second before Bucciarat was 'admiring' his miserable state after taking another punch to the face, he was overwhelmed by excruciating pain the next second.

The benefits of a mental breakdown are not limited to 'slow motion', but also include a heightened sense of perception.

However, the downside is that this also amplifies the pain he experiences, allowing him to more clearly feel every detail and every bit of pain from that punch to his face.

Bucciarati, whose consciousness was pulled back, let out a scream before being knocked to the ground.

Then he realized that if he suffered too much damage while his consciousness was running wild, he might die from excessive pain.

In other words, to die from excruciating pain!

However, his analysis went beyond that. Based on the force feedback from when [Steel Chain Fingers] was knocked back, he was certain that the opponent's Stand was not as strong as his [Steel Chain Fingers]!

In other words, as long as the opponent doesn't have another chance to hit him, he can win in a pure stand-in fight!

Realizing this, just as Giorno rushed in to finish him off, [Steel Chain Fingers] reappeared.

He first forced Giorno back with a punch, and then engaged in a fierce battle with Gold Experience.

"Ali ali ali ali!"

"Wood, big, big, big, big, big!"

Just as Bucciarati had predicted, in this high-speed exchange of fire, his [Steel Chain Fingers] gained the upper hand!

Chapter 666 Miraculous Life Energy

With his superior strength and speed, Steel Chain Fingers seized the opportunity and unleashed a series of powerful punches that forced Golden Experience into a retreat.

"good chance!"

The instant Gold Experience was defeated, Bucciarati rushed forward, almost overlapping with the figure of Chain Fingers, his right hand rapidly slicing across Giorno's body multiple times.

The next second, several zippers appeared on Giorno's body, and several long, rectangular dimensional pockets were opened.

This made it difficult for Giorno to stand up again.

“Giorono, I, Bucciarati, will accept your head.”

Just as Bucciarati was about to deliver the final blow to Giorno, Giorno twisted his own arm, using the zipper to extend his attack range and fling the arm out.

This allowed Giorno's attack to hit Bucciarati first.

This weak attack force certainly wouldn't cause Bucciarati any harm; on the contrary, a large amount of life energy was directly injected into Bucciarati's body.

In an instant, Bucciarati's consciousness went berserk again and detached from his body.

Victory or defeat can be decided in the blink of an eye!

As Giorno and his Stand, Gold Experience, walked step by step toward his body, Bucciarati finally panicked!

However, just when Bucciarati was powerless to do anything and could only wait to die, a figure suddenly descended from the sky and blocked Giorno's path.

"Huh? No way, I've already released so much water, how come you've only run this far?"

Abel, who arrived later, glanced at the motionless Bucciarati and deliberately spoke in that tone.

"Get out of the way! This guy's berserk state is about to return to normal."

As Giorno spoke, he prepared to bypass Abel and deliver a fatal blow to Bucciarati.

However, Abel was not prepared to let the tool he had chosen be taken offline prematurely.

"Wonderful life energy. If I had the chance, I'd like to experience the feeling of my consciousness going berserk. But before my game with this guy is over, could you please stand quietly to the side and behave yourself?"

Abel's smile was accompanied by a chilling killing intent that instantly pierced Giorno's sensitive nerves, causing him to quickly retreat and create distance, his back immediately soaked with cold sweat.

It felt like encountering a predator at the top of the food chain.

If he doesn't do what the other party wants, he will be torn to pieces immediately.

It was only after experiencing this baptism of murderous intent that Giorno truly realized how terrifying his opponent was.

Then the question arises: why did this terrifying, mysterious person help him in the first place? And what was he plotting?

Just as he began to have wild thoughts, Bucciarati's berserk consciousness finally calmed down.

However, his complexion was not very good.

Giorno alone nearly caused him to lose, and now this mysterious and powerful guy has caught up with him, so he has almost no chance of winning.

The only good news is that the other party and Giorno don't seem to be on the same side.

Bucciarati witnessed everything that had just happened and astutely identified the problem.

So, can this complex relationship be utilized?

Bucciarati suddenly turned and ran, but not towards the intersection; instead, he ran towards the wall.

And just as he was about to hit the wall, he immediately slashed downwards with his right hand, creating a zippered dimensional pocket, and then he immediately crawled inside, all in one smooth motion.

After he passed by, the zipper was quickly zipped up and then disappeared completely.

Abel didn't seem to mind, and simply smiled at Giorno, saying, "Want to become a mafia superstar?"

Giorno: "..."

Giorno felt as if the other party had seen right through him, even revealing his dream.

“Gustavus Abel, remember this name, I will come looking for you again.”

After saying this, Abel stepped on his right foot with his left and ascended into the sky...
