“But Toulong is different; he’s a stone that can’t be empathized with.”

As he spoke, Diavolo bought two bottles of cola from a roadside vendor, handing one of them to Yoshikage Kira.

"Why would anyone drink this kind of beverage that has no benefits?" Although he was disgusted, Yoshikage Kira still took it and drank it.

Perhaps even he himself did not expect that he would drink the beverage offered by someone so easily, and so naturally.

"Didn't you ask me what Toulong wanted?" Diablo downed half a bottle in one gulp. "What he wants isn't just money, but absolute status and power!"

"Is this... any different from yours?" Yoshikage Kira's sharp retort hurt Diavolo deeply.

"Yes, the same! And he would never kill you. After learning of Gaia's existence, he will definitely find a way to deal with Gaia."

At this point, Diavolo looked at Yoshikage Kira, "His role in this world is almost exactly the same as mine."

Kira hadn't expected Diavolo to say these things to him.

But he understood what Diavolo meant. In other words, no matter who wins or loses between Diavolo and Toru, their fates won't be too bad, since Toru also wants these Stand users to serve him.

The only difference is that I have a different boss. Maybe Toulong will even pay me a salary and give me holidays!

At this point, the issues between them have actually been laid bare.

On one hand, there's the new boss who's almost guaranteed to win, and who also gets some benefits.

On one hand, there is the uncertainty of the situation, and on the other hand, there are capitalists who continue to exploit and enslave them.

Yoshikage Kira sighed, then put a hand on Diavolo's shoulder.

"Are you going to blow me up? Remember not to blow your head up, or you can be my pledge of loyalty." Diavolo didn't do anything, just quietly watched Yoshikage Kira.

Kira extended his other hand, and then pointed his index finger at Diavolo's nose.

"Give me one day off every week, and I'll never be stupid enough to work for you again!"

Hearing Kira say that, Diavolo laughed, "What do you need a vacation for? Don't you like working?"

"But you can't make work your whole life! Don't forget, you've given me a home full of burdens!"

After saying that, the two of them looked at each other and suddenly burst into laughter.

Their relationship had transcended that of ordinary friends, because their friendship originated from exploitation and coercion.

However, given that neither of them are normal people, they cannot be viewed through the eyes of normal people.

Perhaps because he had never seen Toru before, Yoshikage Kira felt no tension about the upcoming battle.

After all, in his view, there was no one he couldn't blow up! As long as he could find them and had time to detonate, then none of them would be a problem.

"Diavolo, if you get back alive this time, give me a raise!" Yoshikage Kira made a rare request.

"Sure, are you short on cash lately?"

"I want to buy Shinobu some clothes. We have too many gloves at home, but she doesn't have many new clothes."

The two looked at each other and smiled.

Chapter 548 Beika Town, War Begins

Although he had never seen the dragon, Kira had felt the oppressive force of the calamity.

When calamity befalls you, everything in the world will become your enemy, and even the unseen and intangible luck will leave you.

Although Toulong didn't achieve any truly terrifying feats, his terror was etched into everyone's mind.

"Even if he comes, how can you be sure he will actually come to you?" Kira asked a crucial question.

Yes, what if the dragon comes and hides, secretly observing and marking everyone with the mark of calamity? Then they'll be lambs to the slaughter.

"It's alright. If we catch a turtle in a jar, will the turtle bite us back?" Although he said it lightly, Diablo wasn't entirely confident.

After all, he was only thinking about dealing with Toulong; even Xinyuan was helpless against the calamities behind him.

That is one of the truths of this world! It cannot be destroyed.

After discussing these matters, Diablo and his companions went to the designated spot and waited quietly for the dragon to take the bait.

In fact, just as Yoshikage Kira had guessed, Toryu did hide after arriving in Beika Town.

He refused to believe it, so he hid and plotted against them, marking each of them with a calamity mark, to see what kind of trouble they could cause.

However, Toulong was very wary of Diavolo.

Once a person is marked with the sign of calamity, their life or death is practically in the hands of the dragon.

Compared to the Stand abilities of others, Diavolo's Stand ability is clearly more powerful.

Moreover, he can edit and stitch together the timelines of other people. With him around, it's practically impossible for anyone to die.

However, no matter how powerful Diavolo's Stand ability is, Toru's only thought is to kill him and take everything from him.

This is a battle that is unlikely to change the course of the world order. In fact, if Toulong wins, he may be able to deal with Gaia more easily.

This is also true for them in terms of benefits.

However, people don't live for just the sake of profit!

From the very beginning of this battle, Diablo had already lost, because all those who were supposed to be neutral sided with Diablo.

Toulong searched for a long time but couldn't find Diablo and his group, which annoyed him.

"Damn it, were they all waiting for me in the shadows? How despicable!" Toulong cursed angrily.

Just then, Toulong suddenly saw a familiar hairstyle walking into a small path.

"That steak head... has the ability to restore everything!"

Upon seeing the first tier of Stand users he had in mind, Toru was naturally both surprised and delighted. What's more, that guy still had his own mark, which he hadn't removed yet.

Toulong naturally had no intention of harming this precious talent. In fact, apart from Diablo, Toulong almost never wanted to hurt anyone.

Because in his eyes, those people were just tools he used to gain status, so who would be willing to smash their own tools?

Having caught up with Josuke, Teru quietly entered the side path and released his Stand in another direction.

He didn't believe the guy was just strolling around.

As Toulong walked down the path, he witnessed a scene that utterly shocked him.

Diavolo, holding a pistol, fired at Bucciarati without hesitation.

"What's going on? Didn't the intelligence say that was his son? Did they find out he's not his biological son?" Toulong didn't understand, but he still took the opportunity to mark Diablo and the others with the Calamity Mark.

In this way, if they have even the slightest wicked thoughts towards themselves, they will be completely destroyed by the torrent of disaster.

Toulong did not act rashly, but silently counted to ten.

During this time, Diavolo did not use any Stand, indicating that he was unaware that he had been marked by himself.

Diablo was taken care of so easily, but Toulong still feels like something's missing.

Just then, another gunshot brought Toulong's thoughts back to that place.

"Dad, why is this happening?" Giorno was also shot, and blood was flowing from his chest like a faucet being turned on.

The other members were also completely stunned by this scene. First Bucciarati, then Giorno. What is the boss planning to do?

"You old geezer, what's wrong with you?" Trish spread her arms to block the others.

She was different from the others; she was Diablo's biological daughter and his only bloodline.

"Uncle Octopus, why did you shoot? Aren't they all your sons?" Josuke stepped in front of the others without hesitation.

Seeing this, Diablo gave them a cold look. "You? If I lose to the Dragon, it's hard to say who you'll be!"

"You just want to annoy me? Fine, then no one will get away with this!" Diablo was like a madman at this moment, frantic and ruthless.

No one else knew what was wrong with him or what had triggered it!

As he spoke, Diablo pointed his gun at Josuke, saying, "If I kill you first, you won't be able to heal them, right?"

Josuke withdrew his hands from healing the two of them, his eyes filled with disbelief.

The octopus uncle actually... wanted to kill me?

He's known Uncle Octopus since he was a child, and the two have always had a good relationship. He's never been angry when Uncle Octopus calls him Steakhead.

However, at this moment, Uncle Octopus seemed to have become a different person, cold and ruthless.

"Damn dad!" Trish couldn't stand it anymore. She decided to beat her dad down first before figuring out what was going on.

But before she could make a move, a burly figure suddenly crashed down, and to Trish's astonishment, Kaz knocked Trish unconscious with a chop to the neck.

"Terry-Hugh!"

Upon seeing that even his own daughter had been beaten, Toulong immediately realized what was happening.

"Keeping you alive is just asking for trouble with Toulong, so let's just kill you all and go to hell, then we can all reunite!"

Diablo's smile had completely gone mad. He knew he was doomed to fail, so he was prepared to have others die with him!

"What? That bastard! Those are all my men! I can't let him kill them!" Tou Long could no longer hold back.

The conflict between him and me stemmed from wanting to take these people away. If he were to kill them all, wouldn't all my efforts have been in vain?

"You bastard, stop right now!"

The savior...Tōryū, makes a dazzling appearance.

As long as they have any ideas, they will be crushed by calamity! Therefore, no one will ever launch a sneak attack on the dragon.

After all, the prerequisite for attacking someone is identifying the target!

However, just as he stepped onto the path, he suddenly felt his foot trip.

"Feel the emerald water splash with a radius of twenty meters set up at the intersection of the alley!"

This is a case of the prey walking into the trap on its own!

"what?"

This trap was clearly set by someone who wasn't marked.
