My anime character is in the infinite flow search and fight

He didn't step out of the shadows of the doorway, but instead leaned against it, cautiously observing Polnareff from outside.

"And your Stand, it's astonishing... After all these years of recuperation, your Stand's abilities haven't weakened at all; instead, they've grown stronger."

“Just like you said.” Polnareff chuckled.

"Human growth is about overcoming the past, and I am moving towards the future."

"Hmph... Polnareff, you really are a great Stand user. Your attack methods are as precise as a genius's, and also, do you rely on a clock to judge the timing of my attack?"

Diablo narrowed his eyes and sneered.

"What a pity, Polnareff, you've seen my face, so I must kill you with my own hands. You must die, go down there, go to hell, Polnareff!"

"King Crimson!!!"

With Diablo's roar, time vanished into nothingness for a fleeting moment.

In this still-functioning world, Diablo did not rush to attack, but instead cautiously activated his epitaph to predict the future seven seconds later.

As expected... we can't enter this room!

Polnareff chose to fight him in this room because he had roughly figured out his prediction of Crimson King's abilities.

His Crimson King is a perfect and invincible Stand, but it still has limitations. While the ability to cut time can be used to eliminate unfavorable outcomes, its offensive capabilities are not absolute.

Unlike the terrifying Jotaro Kujo's time stop, even if time is eliminated, King Crimson only offers one chance for 'absolute first strike'!

He cannot attack others during the time reduction period, or rather, the result of interference can only occur at the point where time reduction occurs.

In such a situation, his attack will be detected the moment it lands, and if the opponent chooses to use a wide-range ability to attack, he may still be killed!

Although it's unknown what changes have occurred to Polnareff, his chariot is undoubtedly stronger than before.

His abilities are very well-defined, but when combined with his tank's stats and his skills, his Crimson King might not be a match for his opponent in confined spaces.

But the good thing is——

"Polnareff, even if you've figured out some of the Crimson King's abilities, you still don't know my epitaph!!!"

Contrary to his cautious approach, Diablo laughed almost wildly.

Time, he saw time!

Seven seconds later in the future—he has won!

In the void erased by time, Diablo—pulled out his pistol!

Yes, he even cautiously chose not to use the Crimson King to attack, which was his choice to win. How could he become a boss if he had a gun but didn't use it?

He didn't attack immediately, but instead watched Polnareff maneuver his chariot and unleash his sword with impenetrable precision during the seven seconds of time reduction, then seized the last second of the world's reduction—

bang bang bang! ! !

He pulled the trigger three times in quick succession, aiming all three shots at Polnareff's head!

Yes, during the time erasure process, he is indeed unable to harm his enemies.

In that case, he could launch an attack during the time deletion process and then make his attack happen the instant the time deletion ended.

Meanwhile, in Polnareff's place, in the instant that time flew by once again, he suddenly felt a tingling sensation in his hair!

"Silver Chariot!!!"

Without hesitation, he controlled the chariot and his sword to change course simultaneously, and the two swings of his sword actually deflected both bullets!

But the third one hit him right between the eyebrows!

Polnareff's eyes widened, then he lay on the ground convulsing for a moment before his Stand disappeared, as if he were truly dead.

"Polnareff, you are truly a formidable enemy!"

Diavolo, still standing outside the door, did not step into the room, while lavishing praise and compliments on the Stand user before him.

"But unfortunately, you are still no match for the invincible Crimson King!"

Hmm, it's been so long without any movement, it must be dead?

Diablo pondered this in his mind, but even so, he still did not choose to step forward.

He chose to activate the epitaph only once, with utmost caution.

The vision of the future once again floated before him, and this time he locked onto the future ten seconds from now!

Yes, he saw it. He controlled the Crimson King to pierce Polnareff's chest, killing him completely!

Looking to the future and the present, the cautious boss repeatedly confirmed that this would be his undeniable victory.

He finally let his guard down.

"Then farewell, Polnareff!!!"

Full of confidence, Diablo entered the room. Then, the Crimson King also came to Polnareff's corpse and plunged it into his chest!

Everything is moving in the direction of fate!

but......

"What?!" Diavolo stared in disbelief at the hand that had suddenly appeared beside Polnareff.

It was the Silver Chariot; he had seized the arm that the Crimson King had pierced into Polnareff's body!

"As expected... your Stand ability can not only erase time, but also allow you to foresee the future, right?"

In Diablo's horrified expression, he saw Polnareff get up as if nothing had happened, hissing as he faced the gaping hole in his chest, his arm piercing through it, and a bullet embedded in his skull.

"Whatever happens, now I've got you—Silver Chariot!!!"

Polnareff roared, and the next moment, the Silver Chariot's blade pierced the Crimson King's arm without hesitation, while he himself tightly gripped Diablo's arm.

"Guaah!!!"

The silver blade pierced through the arm of the Crimson King, and the excruciating pain from the Stand caused Diavolo, who hadn't been injured in a long time, to scream in agony!

—I see, I see!

Is the Silver Chariot's true 'Stand ability' actually some kind of restorative and regenerative ability that grants it to its user?

No wonder he didn't unleash his power until his death. I thought it was a deathrattle ability like Karne's, but it turns out it actually affects the user's physical body!

If even bullets aimed at his head and wounds piercing his chest couldn't kill him—terrifying, utterly terrifying!

Such a Stand ability, coupled with knowing his information—undoubtedly, it's his nemesis!!!

Diavolo knew perfectly well that his Crimson King was a near-perfect Stand, but this perfection also meant that it had shortcomings in various aspects.

The most obvious difference is its attack range. Although it possesses extremely high strength and speed, it is not suitable for head-on combat because the limitation of its E duration prevents it from continuously reducing time. If it fails to kill the opponent in one strike, it gives the opponent an inevitable opportunity to counterattack and kill it.

The equally deadly E-range also forces him to get about two meters close to the Stand, putting himself in danger as well.

Therefore, he only lets the Crimson King deliver a fatal blow when he is absolutely certain of victory. But now—this invincible enemy has put his Crimson King in a predicament where he must face the enemy head-on.

"Don't come near me!!!"

Diablo roared shrilly, and the Crimson King immediately began to furiously attack Polnareff with his fists, while he also desperately kicked the heavily injured Polnareff.

However, most of the attacks were blocked by the enhanced tank, and even the Crimson King could not kill Polnareff, who had obtained the bloodline of a primary Pillar Man, for the time being.

Just like back in Egypt, even though his chariot had plunged the sword into DIO's head, he still couldn't do anything to that vampire.

But the next moment, the silver chariot's blade turned—

Phew! ! !

While rapiers are often used as a source of ridicule, you have to admit that a weapon capable of harming a Stand is also quite convenient.

Just like now, in a single moment, he severed the Crimson King's left hand, which was stuck inside Polnareff's body!

As the Stand's hand fell, Diavolo in the distance also let out an extremely shrill scream, and his left arm was also severed off!

Polnareff was even more ruthless. Ignoring his weakened state due to serious injuries, he grabbed Diavolo's neck. If he touched it, he could kill this scum ten times over in a second!

No, this can't go on! If we keep fighting, he'll definitely take this guy down with him!

"Crimson King, let time fly by!!!"

Diablo screamed and activated Time Reduction once again!

Then, he foresaw the future again and sought opportunities!

Half a second later—

What the hell is this guy?!

Diablo stared in shock at the future of the epitaph—he had once again stepped forward to destroy his silver chariot, but the next second, Polnareff slapped him off, tearing off half of his head along with his body!

No, delete this future and try again!

This time, he swung his rapier wildly, tearing the entire hotel room apart, and he himself was trapped underneath!

No, delete it and try again!

This time—damn it, can anyone tell me if someone who can still move even with half their head blown off is still considered human?

And this guy, damn it, how come his real body is even stronger than his clone?!

Despite his numerous attempts to observe the future, Diablo never obtained a good result!

So time jumps again.

After a ten-second standoff between Polnareff and Diavolo, in a sudden moment of distraction, the enthusiastic BOSS had already fled in disarray!

Chapter 42: 42. Diablo's 'Panic'

"Ha~ha~ha~~~"

Polnareff lay on the floor, panting heavily, clutching his chest. Looking at the blood and bits of flesh scattered everywhere, he pressed his hand tightly against his wound.

The Pillar Men's vitality is indeed terrifyingly tenacious, but that applies to the true Pillar Men.

The basic Pillar bloodline that Polnareff obtained was far inferior to even Santana's, belonging to an underdeveloped teenager within the Pillar race.

Furthermore, as a price to pay for overcoming sunlight, the body's regenerative abilities are weakened, much like how the fear of sunlight and flowing water is removed when exchanging for vampire bloodline. These shortcomings are, in fact, also one of the factors contributing to the bloodline's strength.

The enhancement of the bloodline of the main god is never perfect; it always evolves to be more suitable for reincarnators. While flaws were removed, a portion of the potential was also eliminated.

However, this is not without a way to overcome it.

Panting, Polnareff pulled out a silver-white syringe, plunged it into his chest, and pressed down.

As the pale white liquid was injected, Polnareff felt an unbearable itch all over his body, and his wounds began to slowly heal.

This isn't some kind of magic pill, but rather a support-type item that Blank recommended Polnareff purchase during their conversation.

High-protein supplement

Type: Support Item

Description: A 300g dose of a highly protein-rich supplement that provides the equivalent of 1200000 calories when injected into the body. 20 reward points per dose.

A product whose meaning is unclear to most people, which would provide an excessive amount of energy if used as emergency food, is the best 'healing medicine' for those with the Pillar Man bloodline.

The reason why the Pillar People need to eat vampires is not because they can only eat vampires, but because vampires have a high enough energy content!

Yes, it's that simple. As mentioned in the description of the Stone Mask, the high energy and high calories of vampires are the biggest reason why the Pillars choose them as food.

The reason for not eating humans directly is the same as why humans don't only eat rabbit meat. It's not that they can't eat them, but that the nutritional value is too low. If they only eat low-calorie, low-energy foods for a long time, even if they don't starve to death, they will be forced into a state of long-term malnutrition and energy conservation.

This ultra-high protein supplement is practically a tool specifically designed for bloodlines like the Pillars, which require a large intake of external energy for enhancement. It satisfies energy needs, is small in size, suitable for emergency use, and most importantly—it's cheap.

A single item only requires a mere 20 reward points, and even if it's redeemed, it's only worth 100 points.

After the energy equivalent to 1.2 million kilocalories was injected into the Pillar Man's body, Polnareff lay motionless on the ground, and then received another injection.

A standard 70kg adult male, when all his muscles and bones are combined, is equivalent to 238,000 kilocalories of energy. This 1.2 million kilocalories may seem impressive, but it is actually equivalent to the energy of five adults.

The initial Pillar Man bloodline can achieve an energy utilization rate of about 80%, so two tubes are equivalent to 1.92 million kilocalories, which is the total energy of eight adult humans, and Polnareff absorbed them all.

About forty seconds later, Polnareff, who had gotten up, showed no signs of injury. The piercing wound through his chest, the broken bones and shattered muscles all over his body from being beaten by the Crimson King, and the gunshot wound to his head had all healed.

He reached out and pulled a bullet out of his forehead. Looking at it, Polnareff felt extremely complicated.

It's true—I really am no longer human.

In the past, he probably would have been very reluctant to accept the feeling of becoming inhuman, since it reminded him of DIO.

But now—in order to defeat Diablo, this evil being, he has no choice but to continue!

Power itself is not evil; the difference lies only in the person wielding it!
