We villains all have invincibility written on our faces

Bucciarati had noticed that Diablo was getting impatient, so he stopped unzipping his pants and turned around to punch Diablo!

Chapter 70 Diablo is unlucky

"【Steel Chain Fingers】!"

Bucciarati knew that no matter how many punches he could throw, he only had one chance to strike. The lethality of the punch was not important. What was important was the [Beach Boy]. As long as he could pierce it, Diablo would have nowhere to hide underground. Only in this kind of environment full of obstacles could he win!

It's useless, Bucciarati. All your pretense is futile before my Epitaph. You hold a fishhook in your hand, and when I pierce your body, it will pierce my brain. Trading your life for mine, and knowing Giorno's presence will protect you, it's a brilliant idea. But before my Scarlet King, the future is merely the product of my choices. Your plans are but illusions destined to remain unattainable.

Diablo rarely felt pity, just like the pity the audience felt for a clown who performed hard on the stage but no one watched him. In this world where time has been cut short, I am the only one who is the king of sin!

"【Crimson King】, cut away time." Diablo didn't even bother to dodge before speaking.

Time began to change. Bucciarati was still swinging his fist unconsciously. Diablo dodged the front and easily found a weak point in Bucciarati's defense from the side. The fist shadow was just an illusion. The future changed when Diablo left. Now, only I, Diablo, was real!

It's pathetic. I gave you a chance in church.

Time to recover!

Go to hell, Bucciarati!

The Red King's fist smashed down on Bucciarati. If the blow had hit Bucciarati's head hard, it would have exploded like a ripe watermelon. However, the word "if" almost never has a positive meaning.

Instead of trying to hide, Bucciarati immediately placed his own hand and the hand of his stand on his head and charged towards the Red King's arm!

Compared with swinging arms and unable to stretch arms, the first action causes much more damage than the second. Bucciarati, who joined the gang at a very young age, learned some basic fighting techniques on the streets. Because of the existence of the stand, he did not practice the fighting techniques used by humans in detail, but this does not mean that he will forget the most basic theories.

As for the courage to face the Crimson King's attack?

He is Bucciarati!

The strength of [Crimson King] is indeed greater than [Steel Chain Fingers], but there is not enough space, and the Scarlet King's strange strength cannot be fully exerted. The stand blocking Bucciarati's head also took part of the damage. In Diablo's astonished eyes, Bucciarati was hit by the Scarlet King. This was only the first second after the time disappeared. The fishhook popped out from Bucciarati's broken hand bones and pierced directly into Diablo's chest!

[As long as the prophecy exists, attacks will not be effective against him unless we can create an environment where Diablo is forced to take the attack].

I know, this is the opportunity I'm giving you, Krieg! Diablo can't use Time Slash and Prophecy at the same time. After his Time Slash, he'll be on guard against attacks from you and me, but not his own!

Now is the time for us to fight back. Diablo must die here!

Krieg, lying on the ground, felt the hook enter his body. Bucciarati had succeeded! Krieg ordered the hook to go as deep as possible. Diablo's data flashed through his mind. At the same time, he jumped up from the ground, pulling the fishing line hard and shouting to the others, "Giorno Mistar, help me pull the fishing line! The hook is in Diablo's body!"

"Okay!" Mista was the first to rush over, followed closely by Giorno, and the three of them pulled the fishing line together.

It's a trap! Diablo grabbed the tail of the fishing line, but the hook had already sunk into his heart. There were tons of ground above him. Without the power of [Steel Chain Fingers], it would take the Crimson King at least half a minute to dig out. And with the tight rock surrounding him, there was nowhere to escape!

"Diabolo, you never trust others, do you?" Bucciarati stood up, blood gushing from his broken head and flowing onto his clothes. The blood was like flames burning his white clothes. "But I am different. I trust my companions with all my heart and am proud of their abilities! Diablo, this is your end!"

On the surface, Mista and Giorno pulled hard on the fishing line, the remaining Stand figures cheering them on. Krieg delicately manipulated the hook. Since he couldn't get any deeper, he had to destroy all the tissue near the hook! Underground, Diavolo's body had been pulled out of the ground. The hook was fidgeting inside him, and he had to stop it!

"Bucciarati, how dare you!" Diablo roared. He had just used the Time Cut, and he would have to wait at least a few seconds before using it again. During this time, during this time! Could he even survive this time?

“Ali ali ali ali ali, ali ali ali ali ali, ali ali ali ali ali, ali ali ali ali ali, ali ali ali ali ali ali!”

He was responded by the roar of [Steel Chain Fingers]. The Crimson King could only block a part of the fist shadow, and most of his strength had to be put into fighting against the fishing line. How could the Crimson King do so many things with only one hand? Bucciarati's attack avoided the Crimson King's arm, and every few punches passed through the Crimson King's protection and hit Diablo!

"I am innocent!" This was Tobio's personality begging for mercy, but not only did Bucciarati ignore him, he focused his heavy punches on the boss's mouth. At first, Tobio's personality was still cursing wildly, but soon he could not utter a word.

[Crimson King], Diablo, whose teeth were almost knocked out, gave the order, and the already tattered Crimson King leaped through time again.

Huh, huh, huh, in the cracks of time, Diablo took deep breaths, each breath of air was filled with the smell of blood, and he felt like his body was about to break.

Damn you, you bunch of traitors! Diablo's heart was churning. He wanted to curse, but he couldn't even utter a complete sentence. No matter how fierce and dirty the curse was, it only came out as a vague sound.

Damn it! Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!

I'm going to kill you and cut you into pieces!

Diablo let out a shrill cry, and the Crimson King reached into his heart and pulled the fishhook out alive.

Even if I'm going to die, don't even think about having an easy life!

My Crimson King is invincible!

ps: Thank you for the rewards, and thank you for the readers who voted. I don’t know what to say, so I’ll just wish you all a happy new year here.

Chapter 71 Growth:?

It was a close call. Fortunately, Shi Ke's cooldown was over and Bucciarati didn't have the extra energy to use his stand ability, otherwise I would have died long ago.

Barely delaying the approach of the God of Death, Diablo covered his wound. He knew it was just a [Trial] and only the victor would get everything.

Stop the bleeding, stop the bleeding. The wound cannot heal in a short time. Even though Diablo has tried his best to reduce the wound, the location of the injury is too delicate.

How can I stop the bleeding?!

Sutures, burning, bandages, and powdered substances. Diablo forced himself to overcome his fear, and he actually came up with a solution. Powdered substances were everywhere. Although this might become a stain on his life, it was foolish to consider dignity at this moment. He grabbed the dirt from the ground and searched for traces of stone. The Crimson King clenched the small stone he found, crushed it into powder, and applied it to his wound.

How many seconds have passed?

Diablo can only fly for a dozen seconds, and he must return to normal during this period.

Not yet, still a little short. The blood loss can be controlled, but what about the heart damage?

[Heroic Martyrdom]'s aging can be controlled by switching personalities, but Diablo knows very well that no matter how many times he switches personalities, the physical damage is permanent. The missing hand will not grow back, and the damaged heart will not heal in a few seconds.

Why are there only traitors and perverts around me? Why is no one loyal to me? I am not a cruel and ungrateful person, thought the Italian mafia boss who was famous for his cruelty and ungratefulness.

A tearing pain came from his chest. Even though it was a part of the myocardium that was broken instead of some important blood vessel, the pain made Diablo feel like he was on the verge of death. But he couldn't fall here. His glory would continue after killing all these traitors.

The reason you didn't kill me on the spot is why you were defeated!

Bucciarati made a mistake, or rather Bucciarati and Krieger made a mistake together, and that was the placement of the hook.

Although it is common sense that the heart is on the left, and Diablo's heart is not upside down, Bucciarati does not know how far to the left this left is. If Krieg was with him, he could use the knowledge he learned in forensic class to remind Bucciarati that most of the heart's volume is actually in the middle of the human body, and only the apex of the heart is biased to the left. The position where Bucciarati used the attack to eject the hook was too left. If Krieg had not ordered the hook to move, Bucciarati would not have aimed at the heart at all, but at the lungs.

Krieg also made a mistake. He subconsciously thought that Bucciarati was a veteran who had been hanging around on the streets for a long time and should not make such a low-level mistake as mistaking the location of the heart. However, when Bucciarati didn't have a stand, he never thought about how he killed the enemy. After he got a stand, he never tried to attack the heart with a knife or any other sharp objects. So due to the misunderstanding between the two people, Diablo got a few tenths of a second of breathing time, which was enough time for him to grab the fishing line.

In the gap of time, Diablo did not adjust his position to attack Bucciarati. He had to find a solution. A punctured heart will cause bleeding, and heavy blood loss will kill. It's a simple truth. However, in fact, before the amount of bleeding reaches a large amount, or "hemorrhagic shock", he may have died.

The reason is cardiac tamponade. The heart is not a smooth round ball in the chest cavity. It is covered by the pericardium, which has little elasticity. Therefore, if there is too much fluid inside, the pressure will increase, squeezing the heart and causing it to be unable to beat. The surging blood will fill this inconspicuous organ.

Trying hard only to get rid of one or two is futile.

To win this battle, there is no longer any advantage in terms of intelligence. The only thing we can rely on now is awareness.

Only those who are determined to die can meet the final outcome!

Diablo took a deep breath. The Crimson King bent down beside him and tore open the wound that had not yet stopped bleeding. Stone powder mixed with blood. The Crimson King's hand pinched his heart, forcing the blood to drain out rapidly. When the accumulated blood was temporarily cleared, the Crimson King cut open the pericardium!

The feeling of impending death and emptiness suddenly became extremely strong. Diablo closed his eyes and carefully savored the pain.

He, Si, He, Si, Diablo took a deep breath.

Crimson King, Destructive Power: A, Speed: A, Range: E, Sustainability: E, Precision: ?, Growth: ?

When Diablo opened his eyes again, Bucciarati was still waving his fists, his angry expression changing slowly. Diablo was surprised at how slowly time flowed. He had already made plans to fight against the steel chain fingers, but compared with the previous time cuts, this time's time cuts seemed... a little slower?

what happened?

Diablo took two steps in disbelief. As the initiator of Time Cut, no one except himself could remember what happened during the time leap. No matter whether it was Krieg who was already very familiar with Time Cut, or Jotaro who had the same type of Stand, no one would remember what Diablo did during this period. The only one who could truly remember time was Diablo.

No, ten seconds in the real world have already passed, now at least 15 seconds have passed!

The ability to leap through time has become stronger?!

It was so absurd that Diablo even wanted to laugh out loud. When I was in my best condition, I was forced to this point. When I was on the verge of death, my [Crimson King] actually improved.

Diablo is the one who dug out the [Arrow]. He may be the one who has possessed a Stand for the longest time among those who have artificially awakened their Stand abilities. From his youth to middle age, the [Crimson King] has remained unchanged. Unexpectedly, he would receive such a surprise in the end!

Ultimately, a stand is the embodiment of spiritual energy. When Diablo was on the verge of death but remained determined, his will surpassed that of the past Diablo, and the [Crimson King] also changed.

My [Crimson King], you are truly invincible.

"Time," Diablo muttered, "begins to flow."

The three brothers who were pulling the fish hooks found themselves lying on the ground inexplicably, with pain on their backs from being rubbed by gravel. Trish raised his head, and for some reason there were many tear marks on his face. He could already see Jotaro in the Colosseum and hurriedly turned the steering wheel. He almost crashed into the traffic booth.

"This ability, no, this isn't time-stopping! This is a new time ability!"

ps: I’m 23 years old today. It turns out I’ve already graduated for a year. QAQ

Chapter 72 Growth Question Mark and A are Different

Could it be that the boss killed Bucciarati?

Krieg was about to call for others to take action, but the feedback from the hook told him that the problem was not with Bucciarati, but with Diablo who was undergoing a time-consuming slash. Bucciarati was just gasping for breath, but Diablo's breath was almost gone!

Bucciarati succeeded?!

It wasn't just Krieg who was shocked. Bucciarati was also surprised. After all, the fishhook only conveyed a feeling, but Bucciarati saw Diavolo's appearance with his own eyes. However, the scene before him was completely incomprehensible to him.

Is this a trap? Why does Diablo look like he's about to die? Did he fail to dodge my attack during the time attack?

Bucciarati's mind was filled with three questions.

Indeed, in Bucciarati's eyes, Diablo was pale and looked like a vampire, the kind of vampire who had been beaten by a witcher and had a wooden stake driven into his heart and then stuffed with lime. Only this kind of vampire was similar to what Diablo looked like now.

When did the wound on his chest appear? Diablo pulled out the fishhook, and Bucciarati knew it when he saw it flying through the air. Although the fishhook was indeed very sharp, could a fishhook, not much bigger than a thumb, really make such a big wound?

Diablo also knew that his condition was not right. To perform a heart surgery that had absolutely no medical basis, especially with the Scarlet King in such a dirty environment, without a hospital or a stand with treatment capabilities, he wouldn't even be able to see the infection stage. The blood loss and weakened heartbeat alone would be enough to kill him in a few minutes.

Surgery can mean the difference between immediate death and prolonged death for a few minutes. Blood loss is impossible, but it is impossible for the heart to function normally without a part of it. Surgery is just a temporary solution.

If this thing can be called surgery.

Diablo understood that the ability of the [Crimson King] had not changed qualitatively. He was still unable to attack during the time-slashing process. The ability to extend the flying time could only help him better avoid attacks and escape.

Let me escape when I have the intention to die?

Diablo heard the funniest joke in his life. The activation of Time Slash must rely on Diablo's personality. Tobio's personality cannot be activated. During the Time Slash just now, he has been existing, allowing [Heroic Martyrdom] to help him age a little, making his heart not beat so strongly. It is indeed a good way to stop bleeding, but when he escapes, aging will prevent him from escaping very far.

When being chased, the danger would increase nearly a hundred times if he was a second slower. Mista and Bessie's long-range attacks would not care how far away he was. Not to mention being stabbed by a fishhook, even being hit by a bullet in the leg would mean his death.

"Bucciarati!" Diavolo had to say it word by word to make Bucciarati afraid. Now he could only deceive Bucciarati's fear. Even if the Crimson King could punch through his chest, it would only make his hope even slimmer.

Is the only chance left for a one-for-one trade?

No, I am the Emperor of Italy. I will survive, I will survive no matter what. I still have an organization. As long as I can issue an order, the other Stand users in the organization will deal with the traitor. As long as I heal my wounds, this world will still be under my control!

"Diabolo, do you think you can fool me like this?"

Diavolo was still brewing a lie and was a little confused when he heard Bucciarati's response.

Bucciarati felt he had seen through Diavolo's disguise. "You deliberately made yourself look miserable. In fact, you are not seriously injured at all. You are waiting for me to come to you, and then hold me hostage and order Giorno to treat you, right?"

What are you talking about? Diavolo's fierce yet confused expression was frozen, and Bucciarati took this as his conspiracy being exposed.

"Diabolo, you're a formidable foe, but I won't be fooled." Bucciarati retreated until he was right at the edge of the dirt. "Keep flying through time. When you appear before me, I'll defeat you!"

I haven't started lying to you yet, get out of here and let me go!

Because of Bucciarati's actions, Diavolo's expression became more and more ferocious. Bucciarati understood again. He knew that this was a manifestation of Diavolo's anger after his conspiracy was exposed. So he firmly guarded the weakest place underground, and said, "I will protect my companions myself. Boss, don't even think about leaving here!"

The atmosphere was at a stalemate. Diablo knew he was weak and wanted to escape. Bucciarati thought Diablo was very strong, so he guarded the mud cave and prevented Diablo from leaving.

So what are they doing?

Several people on the ground were also confused. Krieg immediately told Giorno what happened underground, hoping that this donut who always had a way would know what was going on, but obviously Giorno couldn't figure out what they were doing.

The more the stalemate between Bucciarati and Diavolo grew, the more Krieg dared not move. Who knew if Bucciarati had any way to kill with one blow? Anyway, the fishhook was right next to Bucciarati, and Giorno was on standby on the ground. If Bucciarati was pierced, he would immediately pull him up. Bucciarati would definitely survive. It would be bad if the attack of the fishhook interrupted Bucciarati's plan.

Krieger chose to believe Bucciarati.

"It's quiet inside," Apakis, who had been looking at the Colosseum nervously, looked at Prosciutto, hoping that the stranger could give him some confidence, but he found that the stranger's brows were furrowed even tighter than his.

Strange, Prosut thought, seven or eight minutes have passed, why hasn't the boss died of old age?! Prosut subconsciously raised his wrist, then belatedly realized that the watch had been sold.

What's going on in there? Why can't I hear anything?

Jotaro and Koichi also came to the block where the news was reported. There were all kinds of reporters coming and going, but there was no scene of any Stand users fighting, because the people in the Colosseum were all waiting. Bucciarati and Diavolo, who were fighting just now, were still fighting underground. Even if Koichi made [Echo] fly into the sky, he couldn't see what was happening around him. The crowd was scattered. Apart from here, there were only more people around the Colosseum. It's just that the Colosseum itself is a famous scenic spot, and Koichi didn't think there was anything wrong with there being so many people there.

"Nothing seems to be wrong, eh?" Koichi spotted an acquaintance, "Mr. Jotaro, I think I saw Giorno."

Chapter 73 Echo ACT2

"That's Giorno over there, huh? The people around him, huh? Are they all Stand users?!" Koichi pointed at the Colosseum. Echo ACT1, as a Stand that can fly under normal circumstances, is very useful for reconnaissance. Its excellent eyesight allows it to see clearly what's happening inside. "There are four people in total, a male Stand user who uses a fishing rod, a girl with a female Stand, Giorno, and a man with a gun!"

The time anomaly and Dio's son, Jotaro immediately figured out what happened. It was the ability inherited from Dio's [World]. This Giorno Giovanna is most likely the character who caused the time anomaly!

"What are they doing? Wait, why are so many people covered in blood? Why is half of the Colosseum destroyed? What on earth is going on?"

"Koichi, have your Stand control Giorno! Use onomatopoeia and tell me Giorno's location!"

"Wait a minute, Mr. Jotaro, Giorno is a good man," Koichi hurriedly defended Giorno. He saw that although the scene was strange, the four people were obviously not hostile. It was better to say that they were staring at a piece of land and didn't know what they were doing. "Although I don't know why he is here, I believe Giorno has absolutely nothing to do with the anomaly of time! They are just staring at a piece of land!"

Jotaro lowered his hat. He was willing to believe Koichi, but Dio's son still needed to be treated with caution. "Just control it. Don't use your abilities to hurt him. If what you said is true, maybe they are looking for the [Arrow]!"

Because of the distance, Echo ACT1 could only see a few small dots. Koichi knew that this was Jotaro's biggest concession, and he had to help Giorno. Koichi was a very emotional person, so he was always not calm enough when doing things. He always expressed his emotions excitedly and did not hide his thoughts. But it was this character that made Jotaro believe that people that Koichi liked could not be that bad.
