Anime: A Saiyan from a Dream
Page 120
San Giorgio Maggiore is a church island in Venice. Apart from the Church of San Giorgio Maggiore, there are almost no other buildings on the island.
Under normal circumstances, only members of the Church of San Giorgio Maggiore can enter, but Diavolo is different. He can enter by relying on the power in his hands.
The "Passion" organization founded by Diavolo has been deeply rooted in Italy and has a complex network of connections. Countless powerful people are in collusion with the organization, making it the underground king of Italy.
In the original work, Polnareff, while investigating Diablo's information, even encountered a communication blockade by the "Passion" organization and was unable to contact the outside world.
This is enough to show the extent to which this organization's secret rule over this country has reached.
The Church of San Giorgio Maggiore was closed these days, so the church was empty. Diavolo chose to receive his daughter here, who was escorted by the Bucciarati team.
Of course, after Diablo took in his daughter, his purpose was not to protect her, but to kill her.
The reason was that he felt that his daughter had a blood connection with him, so it was very likely that someone could find his whereabouts through the blood.
Although it sounds ridiculous, in the JOJO world, his concerns are reasonable.
The blood ties in the JOJO world are extremely exaggerated, and the blood ties of the Joestar family run through almost all the plots from part one to part six.
While Qin Chuan was thinking about Diavolo's situation, he took a small boat to the Island of San Giorgio Maggiore.
After all, this is the water city of Venice, and the thing that is least in short supply is small boats. Qin Chuan spent a little money and rented a speedboat and came to this small island with almost only a church.
After approaching the island, the first thing Qin Chuan did was to use "Qi" to sense the entire island.
He wanted to confirm whether Diablo was hiding in the church as he thought.
Chapter 236: What is the Use of Time Deletion?
Under Qin Chuan's perception, the "qi" of the entire San Giorgio Maggiore Island was visible, and the "qi" of the small animals on the island could be sensed by Qin Chuan.
Qin Chuan ignored the "qi" that was too weak and obviously came from small animals, and then carefully sensed the atmosphere inside the only church on the island.
Soon, he felt that there was a special "aura" on the top floor of the church's only bell tower.
That "energy" is not strong compared to that of ordinary people. After all, although the "stand" of the Stand User possesses power far beyond that of ordinary people, the Stand User himself will not exceed the scope of ordinary people.
The same goes for Diablo. His physical fitness may be a little better than that of ordinary people, but not much better. At most, he is just an ordinary person with relatively strong physical fitness.
Therefore, in Qin Chuan's perception, Diablo's "Qi" is naturally just so-so. Although it is not as low as "a scum with a combat power of only 5", it is still in the single digits.
"But it seems that Diablo has noticed me."
When Qin Chuan sensed Diablo's "aura", he knew that Diablo should have noticed him.
After all, Diablo is now on the top floor of the church's bell tower. From the height of the bell tower, he can see almost all the ships arriving at the island clearly.
On the church's rest day, no one else would come to the island, so Qin Chuan's boat was the only ship that came to the island, and it was impossible for Diablo to miss it.
However, Diablo did not dare to act rashly. He could not tell whether Qin Chuan was coming for him or was just an ordinary tourist who did not know that the church was closed on a closed day.
Of course, what Diablo thinks is not important, what is important is...
From the moment Diablo's "qi" was captured by Qin Chuan, Diablo's life was completely controlled by Qin Chuan.
……
"What's going on? Isn't today a day off for the church? Why are there still tourists coming to this island?"
On the top floor of the church's bell tower, Diablo hid in the shadows, looking through the window of the room on the top floor of the bell tower at the edge of the island below.
Qin Chuan's boat was clearly visible, and Diablo also recognized the model of the boat - it was a speedboat specially used by tourists, and it was widely praised for its simple operation.
Diablo guessed that Qin Chuan was just an ordinary tourist and was thinking about how to send Qin Chuan away.
After all, he was still waiting for the Bucciarati team to escort his daughter over so that he could kill her with his own hands. If there were other people on the island, there might be complications.
But just as Diablo was looking at the situation outside the window, he suddenly trembled all over, and an indescribable feeling of fear surged into his heart.
Driven by fear, he summoned his stand almost instantly:
"The Crimson King!!!"
The next moment, a hideous humanoid stand appeared behind him. The striped body and distorted facial features all reflected Diablo's crazy character.
On the forehead of the "Crimson King", there is a small raised face, which is the "Epitaph", a byproduct of the "Crimson King's" ability.
The effect of "Epitaph" is very simple and crude, that is, to predict the future - although it can only predict the future for a few dozen seconds, it is enough for him to anticipate the enemy in battle.
After summoning the "Crimson King", Diablo activated the ability of "Epitaph" almost immediately and saw the scene of the next few dozen seconds.
Qin Chuan's figure appeared behind him through instant teleportation, then he stretched out his hand and grabbed his neck lightly, leaving him unable to resist.
In just a few seconds of footage, Diablo's expression revealed fear - because he saw that he tried to attack Qin Chuan with the Crimson King's fist, but couldn't even break his skin.
No, not only was his skin not broken, he even saw the Crimson King's fist hitting Qin Chuan, but it couldn't even make his body shake.
"What kind of monster is this!?"
Diablo, who saw this scene through the ability of "Epitaph" to predict the future, made a sound of disbelief.
But before he could react further, the future he saw had already taken effect - Qin Chuan's figure instantly appeared beside him.
After capturing Diablo's "qi", Qin Chuan can directly reach Diablo's side through instant teleportation, and it will be useless even if he escapes.
Unless Diablo finds a way to hide his "qi", he will never be able to escape Qin Chuan's grasp.
The people in the JOJO world probably don’t even know what “Chi” is, let alone hiding it.
"The future predicted by 'Epitaph' cannot be changed, unless... time is eliminated!"
Through the future prediction he just made, Diablo knew very well that it was impossible for him to confront Qin Chuan head-on, so his only thought was to escape quickly.
Thinking of this, Diablo immediately tried to activate the ability of "Scarlet King" - to cut off time!
The Crimson King can shave off more than ten seconds of time. During this "shave off time", everyone except Diablo can only act according to instinct.
Diablo can make judgments and act freely during this time.
"Predicting the future" and "erasing time" are the two abilities that make up the power of the Scarlet King. If used together, he can always be one step ahead of his enemies.
Diablo used this set of abilities to make correct judgments at every key point and finally reached his current position.
"The Crimson King!"
With Diablo's roar, the Crimson King immediately eliminated time - as expected, the surrounding scenery changed all of a sudden, and Qin Chuan's movements also fell into "eliminated time".
"Very good. This way, this guy can only act on instinct. I can escape smoothly by avoiding his movements..."
Diablo thought so and was about to take action when he immediately realized that something was wrong.
Qin Chuan's actions were indeed trapped in the "deleted time", and he could only act according to instinct - and his action was to reach out to Diablo's neck.
Diablo already knew the trajectory of Qin Chuan's hand. Logically speaking, he could escape from Qin Chuan's hand by just moving his body slightly.
But the only thing he didn’t expect was that Qin Chuan’s speed... was too fast!
During the "erased time", the speed at which Qin Chuan stretched out his hand had completely exceeded Diablo's dynamic vision and reaction speed. Even though he saw the trajectory of Qin Chuan's movements clearly, he still couldn't avoid it!
"How could something like this happen... at this speed!?"
Diablo's face suddenly turned pale, and then the "time deletion" ended. Qin Chuan grabbed his neck tightly and pressed him to the ground.
"...Oh? Did you just shave off time?"
Qin Chuan seemed to sense some subtle changes in the surrounding environment and quickly realized what Diablo had just done.
Although he made the move, he seemed to have lost his memory of the time when he "caught Diablo". When he came to his senses, Diablo had already been pinned to the ground by him.
"It seems that even if I can predict the future and react to my actions during the time I have deleted... I just can't react."
Diablo was strangled by Qin Chuan's big hand, almost suffocating. He could only stare at Qin Chuan with wide eyes, squeezing out a few unwilling syllables:
"What kind of monster are you?"
Chapter 237: Insect Arrows and Transactions
Qin Chuan didn't waste any time talking to Diablodo and knocked him out directly.
In order to prevent him from waking up secretly and using his Stand ability to escape, Qin Chuan also stuffed a "Black Bird Lover" into Diablo's brain.
Because "Black Bird Lover" is lurking in the brain, if Diablo wakes up, even if he pretends to be unconscious, Qin Chuan will be able to feel it at the first time.
Unless Diablo has a way to think without any brain activity... he won't be able to hide it from Qin Chuan.
"After I knocked him out, the Crimson King also disappeared... Never mind, I'll wake him up later and let him call out the Crimson King for me to eat."
After dealing with Diablo, Qin Chuan looked at the place where the Crimson King was originally located - because the Stand user fainted, the Stand naturally disappeared.
Qin Chuan is still quite concerned about the abilities of the Crimson King, because this guy's abilities include "predicting the future."
Even though the prediction of the future is only a few dozen seconds, it cannot have any impact on future decisions, but if it is used in combat, it will be very useful.
Even Frieza, whose future actions were predicted, would be at a loss as to what to do. Naturally, he would not miss such a useful combat ability.
Of course, even if one can predict the future, it will be of no use if the gap in strength is too big - just like Diablo now, even if he predicted Qin Chuan's attack, he was unable to dodge it.
As for why he didn't kill Diablo immediately... the reason was very simple. He still wanted to use Diablo's face to lure Polnareff out.
In the plot of the fifth part of JOJO, what Qin Chuan cares most about is the "Bug Arrow" that can allow the Stand to evolve into Requiem, and that "Bug Arrow" is in Polnareff's hands.
It won’t be too late to kill Diablo after getting the “Bug Arrow”.
Otherwise, after Diablo is killed and the main quest is completed, you will be forced to leave the quest world before you get the "Bug Arrow", which would be a huge loss.
Diablo can live longer now, thanks to the existence of the "worm arrow".
……
Jean Pierre Polnareff, in the plot of the third part of JOJO, is one of the members who went to Egypt with Jotaro Kujo and others to fight against Dio.
Along the way, they encountered attacks from countless Stand users sent by Dio. After many hardships, they finally arrived in Cairo, Egypt, and then found out... Dio had been killed.
Although this incident surprised them, it was a good thing for them that Dio was killed.
Therefore, their mission changed from "killing Dio" to "cleaning up Dio's remaining forces."
After Dio's death, many people took Dio's legacy and scattered around the world, causing trouble. For example, the Nijimura brothers stole Dio's "arrow" and went to Morioh Town.
During his investigation, Polnareff discovered that for some reason, the drug trade in this part of Europe had skyrocketed, and it seemed that there was an organization behind the scenes pushing it all.
In order not to miss any clues, Polnareff sneaked into Italy to investigate, and ended up investigating the "Passion" organization, and was discovered by Diablo.
Diablo used the power of the "Passion" organization to block his possibility of external contact and killed him on a cliff - that was how it should have been.
But Polnareff did not die. He survived with difficulty. Even though he lost an eye and a leg and had to be a disabled person sitting in a wheelchair, he was still alive.
Not only that, he also accidentally discovered the secret of the "bug arrow" he obtained during his previous investigation while in seclusion, that is, this "bug arrow" can allow the stand to further evolve.
Therefore, hope of fighting against Diablo rose in his heart again, but his disabled body could no longer defeat Diablo, so he was waiting for someone who was also investigating Diablo's true identity.
In the original work, this person is of course the Bucciarati team that rebelled against Diablo. They obtained Diablo's appearance with great difficulty, entered the Internet to search, and were finally discovered by Polnareff.
Qin Chuan doesn't need to go through so much trouble. Now Diablo is lying at his feet, and he has as many photos of him as he wants.
After searching the room on the top floor of the clock tower, Qin Chuan quickly found a laptop computer from the corner of the room.
Although it is still 2001 in the JOJO world and laptops are not yet popular, as the leader of the largest underworld organization in Italy, Diavolo certainly has no shortage of such equipment.
In the original work, Diablo used a laptop to view photos and contact Bucciarati, so Qin Chuan knew that there must be a computer here, and he found it.
Qin Chuan grabbed Diablo's neck, pulled his face in front of the laptop screen, and took a few photos of Diablo with the laptop's built-in camera.
Then put the photos up for search on the Internet—and wait for Polnareff to discover them.
Because Polnareff's means of communication were blocked by the "¨ˇ Passion" organization, he was unable to actively contact the outside world. He could only passively wait for someone to search for "Diabolo's appearance" and establish contact.
Sure enough, just a few minutes after Qin Chuan uploaded Diablo's photo to the Internet, a window suddenly popped up on the screen.
Then, a clearly processed voice came out from the laptop—it was undoubtedly Polnareff's voice:
"That's Diablo's face... Are you searching for information about Diablo!?"
Although it was a processed voice, Qin Chuan could hear a strong sense of surprise in his tone, as if he didn't expect that someone would actually search for Diablo's appearance.
Now that the connection has been established, Qin Chuan no longer needs to hide anything. He directly spoke to Polnareff on the other side of the laptop:
"You are wrong. It's not just about searching for information about Diablo... Diablo is in my hands now."
"..."
Qin Chuan's words immediately left Polnareff on the opposite side speechless for a moment - indeed, in the photos that Qin Chuan had just put into the Internet for search, Diablo had obviously lost consciousness.
At first he thought that someone had secretly taken this photo of Diablo while he was sleeping.
