JOJO: Possessing Diavolo at the Start

Dio wasn't bluffing; if Jotaro dared to make any move, he would kill Suji immediately.

"Damn bastard!" Jotaro gritted his teeth and finally let go.

"That's what I admire about you guys—your ability to bend and stretch," Diablo sneered from the side.

Left with no other choice, Joseph had to sit back down on the sofa.

"Tell me, you're willing to cooperate with someone like Dior, there must be a lot of trouble involved! Well then, if you're willing to help us, I'll definitely do everything in my power to help you!"

Joseph began his extravagant display of wealth, saying, "As long as you help us, we'll pay any price. We can help you anywhere on Earth."

After saying that, Joseph glanced at Dio, realizing that Dio was no match for him in terms of wealth.

Dior's expression also hardened.

How come the Joestar family is always so rich? It's so annoying!

To further entice Diablo, Joseph deliberately belittled Dio.

"What's so good about you teaming up with Dior? You're so strong, Dior probably wouldn't be a match for you! Besides, look at this living room, there's not even a light."

"He probably can't even afford the electricity bill. You've really wasted your time choosing him as a partner."

This back-and-forth of praise and criticism made the situation awkward, while Joseph looked heartbroken.

Keep acting!

Dio was so angry at his arrogant demeanor that he gritted his teeth and wished he could just kill him.

However, Diablo did not respond, but simply tapped the table in front of him lightly.

"Hmm... Money is really not that important compared to life. That mysterious organization makes me very uneasy."

Seeing that he still wanted to continue cooperating with Dio, Polnareff was furious. "You bastard, do you want to become a villain with Dio? You should know that good will never prevail over evil in this world!"

Bobo's words were very sharp. Pucci, who was standing to the side, did not say anything, but his face darkened.

"Is that so? It seems you still didn't understand what I meant earlier!" Diavolo looked at Polnareff, his gaze fixed on him.

"As I've already said, good and evil are definitions made by humans themselves, and they are all determined by human subjective consciousness."

“I wouldn’t say that Dio is actually kind, because that would be tantamount to calling him evil. But from a certain perspective, he is a savior, a savior of evil!”

"You all care too much about labels. It's not a good habit to label everything."

"The moment a life is labeled, it is destined to be tragic!"

Listening to Diablo's eloquent speech, everyone was completely bewildered.

But Joseph and his team had to admit that what he said did make some sense.

Wait a minute, why is the tone shifting towards a pyramid scheme? Let's get back to the point...

Listening to Diablo's ideas, Dio felt more and more that he had found a great treasure!

This is so much fun! It's absolutely hilarious!

Diablo's ideas are so novel!

Jotaro and his group seemed extremely frustrated, unable to say anything and unable to fight back.

Moreover, all nine gods have just arrived at the castle; they are simply waiting downstairs.

"It's impossible for us to cooperate with Dior. If you insist on cooperating with him, then we'll have to say goodbye!"

Joseph looked helpless as he got up with the others and naturally pulled Suggie over.

"Let's part ways here!"

Let's go.

But as soon as they took a step, the Crimson King and the World appeared in front of them.

Jotaro immediately released Star Platinum to shield Joseph and his grandmother behind him.

"You bastard..."

"Old man, do you think I'm stupid?" Diablo stood up, a mocking expression on his face. "We're the kidnappers now, and you're the hostages. Even if you don't get on the pirate ship, you can't let me kidnap you for nothing."

Hearing his shameless remarks, Avdol and Polunarev were also in a very difficult position.

This is the first time I've encountered an enemy like this.

Shameless!

"What do you want?" Joseph looked at them warily, but in his mind he was calculating how to escape.

“First of all, Ms. Suggie can’t leave. If she leaves, we’ll lose our hostages! You agree, right?” Diablo looked at Suggie with a kind expression.

Suzie also remembered her promise to Diablo: as long as she didn't leave the castle, he would tell her a secret about Joseph.

Although you could ask him yourself, Diablo was very mysterious, saying that even Joseph didn't know the secret.

If Joseph were in danger or something...

Therefore, Siji absolutely cannot leave!

Chapter 25 Extortion

"So what do you want?" Joseph just wanted to get out of there as soon as possible.

We'll talk about the rest when we get back!

Anyway, her only child, He Li, is fine now, so there's no rush to seek revenge on Dior.

Josuke: Listen to me, thank you, because of you...

Just as the atmosphere was about to become tense, Diablo suddenly changed his attitude, saying, "Hey, the way you're talking makes it sound like we're some kind of bad guys."

"Tell me first, does this count as trespassing? Dior, use the law to tell them what the punishment is for trespassing."

Seeing Diablo say this, Dio's playful side was aroused. "Haha, they broke into a private residence and even tried to commit violence. We have the right to defend ourselves and kill them."

After saying that, he taunted Jotaro, "This is the law, understand? You little brat. Hahahaha, hahahaha..."

Finally, Jotaro couldn't hold back any longer after being mocked by Dio. "You damned bastard!"

Star Platinum rushed towards Dio immediately and threw a punch!

This punch contained all the anger that Jotaro had just accumulated!

"Hmph, how could such a weak attack possibly be a match for the world?"

In an instant, the world appeared in front of Platinum Star and they began exchanging punches.

Then, their punches grew faster and faster, even the air itself seemed to vibrate from their blows. And their fists were like bullets… no, faster than bullets!

The countless roars made them unable to open their eyes.

Diavolo watched as Star Platinum grew stronger with each fight and couldn't help but exclaim, "Jotaro really does have incredible luck; he's caught up with the world's fastest punching speed in such a short time!"

Then, the two Stands got more and more into the fight, with the voices of Muda and Ora rising and falling.

And so, the shockwaves they created continued to impact the surrounding crowd.

"Jotaro, stop!" Kakyoin grabbed his shoulder. "Ms. Sugi can't take this kind of shock."

This was something Jotaro hadn't expected; once he got into a fight, he forgot that his grandmother was still there.

Seeing that he had stopped, Dio did not continue fighting either. Instead, he proudly held up one finger and said, "Too weak, too weak. The world is the strongest Stand."

After saying that, Dio looked at the old man Joseph, pointed at his nose and said, "Old man, your Stand is the most useless!"

Is his practice of belittling one while praising the other something he learned from Diablo?

"What's going on? Not only did you break into a private residence and commit violence, but you even beat up a centenarian?" Diablo seized the opportunity and unleashed a barrage of attacks.

With these fabricated charges leveled against them, even Abuder suddenly felt as if they were the ones who had done something wrong.

"Don't you have any respect for the law? Don't you have any moral bottom line? Who is the real villain here?"

Diablo's act of falsely accusing someone first greatly excited Dio, who was already very displeased with the Joestar family.

I'd be ecstatic to see them get their comeuppance.

Indeed, everything in the world is governed by the law of conservation of smiles.

"Then what do you want?" Joseph's momentum had weakened by this point.

He didn't know how Diablo could possibly turn the tables.

"Here's what we'll do: you use your double to help me find the people in that organization and catch him before he escapes Cairo."

Is that all the requirements?

This made Joseph feel uneasy. Diablo's request was really so small?

Although it seemed incredible, Joseph did not refuse.

Because they have no right to refuse.

"If that's all, I can help you."

After saying that, Joseph was about to use his Stand ability, but after looking around, his expression froze.

"Um...you don't have a TV or anything like that at home?"

At this point, Dior's face showed a long-unseen expression of embarrassment.

He can't even afford the electricity bill, so why would he buy appliances?

The Joestar family is really annoying!

"Then you'll have to do it yourselves. After all, as you can see, we're really short of money." Diablo wasn't embarrassed at all about it.

If we don't have money, we'll let others spend it. Don't you understand such a simple principle?

Seeing his composed expression, Joseph felt helpless for the first time.

That's just what makes Diablo so terrifying.

He was very good at striking a balance; he kidnapped Holly and Siggie but did not harm them. Instead, he healed Holly.

He used Siji to threaten himself, but only to find a rival organization for himself.

If he were to do something truly heinous, Joseph would never allow it, but he never did.
