I will traverse countless worlds and become a god entirely on my own!

This guy seems surprisingly reliable!

"Hey, how do you know so much?"

The two Qiaos approached Bai Ye curiously, trying to get closer to him, their intention being to test his intentions.

Having your grandson follow this guy makes you feel like you'd be helping the seller count the money even if they sold you out.

And isn't this intelligence source a bit too broad?

"I just happened to know that."

What a coincidence!

Seeing this, how could Er Qiao not know that this guy simply didn't want to tell her?

Although Bai Ye didn't explain, this was good news for them.

At least the world's ability to stop time—if no one had said so, it would probably have taken a tremendous effort to arrive at this conclusion.

[Ding! You changed Kakyoin Noriaki's fate and have been rewarded with one chance to draw a prize.]

Just as I expected.

Even if I don't make a move, the lottery opportunity will still appear. Originally, Dio's time-stopping ability was tested by Kakyoin Noriaki, but he tested it with his own life.

Now that he has directly revealed his abilities, the chain reaction is that he won't need to test the waters, so he won't die.

When Jotaro was fighting Dio, Dio clearly felt the pressure. At first, he could feel that Jotaro was being suppressed by him.

But as he played, he found that the pressure seemed to be increasing.

"Wood big wood big wood big wood big wood big!!"

“Ola Ola Ola Ola Ola!!”

Dio felt some pressure from these brutal, hand-to-hand attacks, but he wasn't too afraid.

As Dio continued fighting, he began to get distracted, his eyes involuntarily drifting towards Joseph Joestar, who was talking incessantly beside Bai Ye.

If he could drink Joseph Joestar's blood, his world would evolve.

However, how to get close to Joseph has now become a problem that Dior needs to think about.

"It still doesn't work!"

Jotaro seemed to have the upper hand, but in reality, it was because Dio's mind wasn't on him at all.

This also made Byakuya realize that Jotaro was no match for Dio under normal circumstances.

Or perhaps they're evenly matched and both can defeat each other, but Dio's current greatest desire is probably to drink Joseph's blood so he can complete an evolution.

It seems I need to unlock Jotaro's potential myself!

But this Dio seems a little different. Why is he already eyeing Joseph Joestar?

Too much pressure?!

Bai Ye was unaware that the powerful aura emanating from him was indeed threatening to Dio.

Unlike his own power, this power came from a fighter, which Dio dared not underestimate. So what he wanted most now was probably to drink Joseph's blood.

Especially considering the destructive lightning that emanated from Bai Ye's body when he arrived, he had a premonition that if he were struck, he would be crippled if not killed.

He could clearly see that Bai Ye was wielding lightning.

"Distracted?!"

Jotaro seized the opportunity when Dio was distracted, and Star Platinum threw punch after punch at Dio's Stand, and this impact was exactly what Dio wanted.

Using the power of Star Platinum, he flew rapidly toward Joseph Joestar. He was now very fast and could reach Joseph Joestar's location in just one second. He would then use the momentum to knock Joseph Joestar away, and then he could suck Joseph Joestar's blood.

Drinking Joseph's blood allows him to grow stronger faster and adapt better to Jonathan Joestar's body; moreover, Joseph's body contains the power of Ripple.

"be cheated!"

Seeing Dio fly directly towards Joseph Joestar's body, Jotaro immediately realized he had been tricked.

Subconsciously glancing at Bai Ye, Jotaro seemed to see the future upon meeting Bai Ye's blood-red eyes: Dio had absorbed Joseph's blood, and after absorbing Joseph's blood, Dio became more adapted to Jonathan's body and stronger.

boom!

The thunderous roar startled Jotaro from his hallucination.

Joseph Joestar collapsed to the ground, while Dio was struck by lightning and then kicked by Byakuya, flying towards Jotaro.

Meanwhile, Dio, suspended in mid-air, also felt an indescribable fear!

He used time-stop when that lightning struck!

Even though the world had just stopped and he had attacked Bai Ye, Bai Ye's body was indeed made of lightning!

This shocked Dio immensely!

He hadn't expected this guy to be even more different than he'd imagined!

"He's made of lightning?! And I clearly retreated before I lifted the time stop, so why am I being struck by lightning?!"

Dio was sent flying backward, his eyes fixed on Bai Ye as he roared, "Why?!"

Even though he had stopped time and even predicted where Bai Ye's lightning would hit, everything was ready.

But the lightning of the day locked onto him!

"Because I have already foreseen your future."

Byakuya explained that the ability to foresee the future using Observation Haki is indeed very useful.

As Dio prepared to attack him and used his time-stopping ability to dodge the lightning, Bai Ye had already seen his future in his eyes!

"impossible!"

Dio roared!

Only you can control time!

Before Dio could say anything more, he was about to be met with Jotaro's wrath.

Jotaro glanced at Joseph Joestar, who was lying on the ground, seemingly unresponsive and possibly still alive. The rage in Jotaro's eyes could no longer be concealed; his anger was at its peak. Star Platinum seemed to sense his fury as well.

Time seemed to freeze for a moment as Jotaro's furious fists pounded into Dio's body: "There's only one reason you failed, and that's because you angered me!"

"Your grandson is really something!"

After the time stop ended, Bai Ye looked at Dio, whose life or death was unknown, and couldn't help but sigh.

I wish I had the ability to stop time.

Didn't they say there's a remote control here that can pause time?

If you press the pause button, the whole world will stop, and only you can move around. If only I had this remote control!

Five seconds is still too short.

"Of course, but I still want to thank you for what you just said."

Although the two Qiaos wanted to complain, they held back in the end.

He was trying to save himself, so why did he trip and fall to the ground? He didn't even realize it at that moment.

"Give your grandson a boost."

"Cheating?"

A hint of doubt flashed in Er Qiao's eyes; she didn't quite understand what Bai Ye was saying.

However, Bai Ye did not offer any explanation.

In classic Japanese anime, characters often unleash their full potential when their family dies in front of them, like Sasuke, who even activated his One-Tomoe in a fit of rage.

"Speaking of which, how did Jotaro defeat Dio just now?"

Joseph Joestar didn't dwell on the topic; instead, he was quite curious about Jotaro's victory over Dio.

I didn't seem to see them fight at all.

"Time, your grandson has awakened an incredible ability!"

"Wow, as expected of JoJo!"

The old man seems to have praised himself as well.

"Why do you know so much about all of this, and what were you just capable of?"

After Jotaro dealt with Dio, his gaze fell on Byakuya. He didn't understand, and felt as if he were a puppet on Byakuya's strings.

He knew everything, even his own abilities, which gave Jotaro a strange feeling.

“That was what the two Qiaos were originally supposed to go through.”

"That's it"

Jotaro nodded. Although there were still many questions in his mind that had not been answered, he believed that Byakuya was not his enemy at this moment.

As a teammate, all you need to do is trust the other person unconditionally.

"Hey, hey, hey, what's my fate?"

Joseph Joestar looked at the two men with some confusion, wanting to uncover some secrets, but neither Byakuya nor Jotaro seemed inclined to explain.

"Is it still possible to participate in the KOF tournament?"

He had resolved his own issues, and Dio was dead. Dio's body was already somewhat exhausted after being struck by lightning by Bai Ye.

Bai Ye only intervened once in this incident, but it was the most crucial one. He helped Bai Ye understand the true use of the Star Platinum and also saved the two Qiaos.

"Of course we'll make it! Our other teammate is waiting for us to get back!"

"KOF fighting tournament, buddy, do you think I still have a chance?"

The two Qiao sisters repeatedly raised their hands, indicating that they also wanted to participate.

"The three of you can form a team!"

"I really don't want to team up with this old guy!"

"Won't I die?"

Teaming up with an old man is like playing with your life; if problems arise, that old guy will probably be the first to run away.
