1. The spines of this mask can pierce a human brain.Copy !req
2. But they haven't the power to pierce our immortal brains.Copy !req
3. We need more power.Copy !req
4. Oh, what's this?Copy !req
5. It's called a Red Stone of Aja, a rare and beautiful gem.Copy !req
6. It refracts light billions of times, making it strong and pure.Copy !req
7. Its power is miraculous.Copy !req
8. But it is not enough!Copy !req
9. This tiny stone doesn't give the spines enough strength.Copy !req
10. To complete our mask, we need a flawless Red Stone.Copy !req
11. We need a super Aja.Copy !req
12. Once we have it...Copy !req
13. we will conquer the sun, and become the final, perfect step in evolution.Copy !req
14. The masks were invented by the most intelligent among them, Kars.Copy !req
15. Kars and the others crossed the
Atlantic in search of a super Aja.Copy !req
16. Suzi Quatro.Copy !req
17. Yes, Madam Lisa Lisa, here it is.Copy !req
18. Thank you.Copy !req
19. In my hand is a perfectly flawless, natural crystal.Copy !req
20. A super Aja!Copy !req
21. You had a Red Stone of Aja?Copy !req
22. The Pillar Men wiped out the warriors of Hamon.Copy !req
23. But this Stone narrowly escaped them.
I am its current guardian.Copy !req
24. Caesar, I know how you must feel.Copy !req
25. The stone masks killed our grandparents, along with countless others.Copy !req
26. And we've met its inventor, Kars.Copy !req
27. Smash it!Copy !req
28. Smash the Red Stone!Copy !req
29. If you break it, they'll cry like babies.Copy !req
30. I cannot do that.Copy !req
31. Why not?Copy !req
32. There is a legend that they cannot be defeated without the Stone.Copy !req
33. Why the heck not?Copy !req
34. I don't know.Copy !req
35. But I perform my duty as guardian.Copy !req
36. JoJo, Caesar...Copy !req
37. You must take a final examination.Copy !req
38. A-A final exam?Copy !req
39. Caesar, you must defeat Messina.
JoJo, you must defeat Loggins.Copy !req
40. From the silent depthsCopy !req
41. The pillars awaken from ages-long sleepCopy !req
42. Crimson bloodCopy !req
43. Summons the valorous to stand upCopy !req
44. If inherited love is called fateCopy !req
45. Then take another step with smiling eyesCopy !req
46. Mystify the darkness, dodge in a blinkCopy !req
47. Avoid the blade, find an opening and strikeCopy !req
48. Conviction tested opens the way to the futureCopy !req
49. Like a bloody storm
Hot like a bloody stoneCopy !req
50. Destiny written into your veinsCopy !req
51. The undying bonds of honor ariseCopy !req
52. Take hold of themCopy !req
53. Are you ready, Caesar?Copy !req
54. I'm more than ready!Copy !req
55. It's almost dawn.Copy !req
56. It's always darkest before dawn.Copy !req
57. Now where on earth is Loggins hiding?Copy !req
58. I have to stay sharp.Copy !req
59. I have a score to settle with him.Copy !req
60. Is that Instructor Loggins?Copy !req
61. H-How horrid!Copy !req
62. I-It's unnatural!Copy !req
63. Instructor Loggins!Copy !req
64. H-He's dead!Copy !req
65. E-Esidisi!Copy !req
66. So you came to Venice, to this island.Copy !req
67. To think that the woman guarding the Stone is just an island over.Copy !req
68. His lungs were pulled out.Copy !req
69. Lungs are vital for Hamon-users.Copy !req
70. It had to have been one swift kick.Copy !req
71. The tyrannical Loggins.
You yelled at me for three weeks.Copy !req
72. To be honest, I hated you.Copy !req
73. I thought I would finally get back at you for all you did.Copy !req
74. But watch me from up there, my instructor.Copy !req
75. See the fruit of your torture!Copy !req
76. Hey, Esidisi, it's six days early, but I'll take it now.Copy !req
77. The antidote in your nose ring is mine!Copy !req
78. Out of my way.
I don't have time to deal with you.Copy !req
79. Time? You have way more time than me!Copy !req
80. That was sharp.
I think you've grown smarter.Copy !req
81. But when somebody looks at me like that...Copy !req
82. they're asking to die.Copy !req
83. I'll tell you once more.
Get out of my way!Copy !req
84. Touch me and you'll lose half your body!Copy !req
85. Make me!Copy !req
86. What's this?Copy !req
87. Well? Get me out of your way!Copy !req
88. I only move if there's dog poo in my way.Copy !req
89. His Hamon is breaking through my skin!Copy !req
90. He's learned much control in just three weeks.Copy !req
91. However!Copy !req
92. I must say your new skill surprises me.Copy !req
93. But you're still far from ready to fight against me!Copy !req
94. I met and devoured countless
Hamon-users like you 2,000 years ago!Copy !req
95. If I twist and break your finger off, you'll never use it again!Copy !req
96. Like this!Copy !req
97. You finally noticed?Copy !req
98. Your arm is wrapped up in a fine silk thread.Copy !req
99. It's soaked in vegetable oil so it conducts Hamon well!Copy !req
100. I was aiming for your neck, but there was no chance!Copy !req
101. H-How did you do it?Copy !req
102. I-It's...Copy !req
103. It's a little morbid for my tastes.Copy !req
104. First blood goes to my instructor and me, Esidisi!Copy !req
105. 2,500 years ago, a man in China wrote The Art of War.Copy !req
106. He said this:Copy !req
107. "Victory is decided before the battle is fought."Copy !req
108. That means laying strategies while your opponent is unaware.Copy !req
109. I skipped school a lot.Copy !req
110. But Granny Erina made sure
I studied history!Copy !req
111. You may have lived a long time, but you don't have a head for strategy!Copy !req
112. Take this!Copy !req
113. W-Why you...?Copy !req
114. Oh? Are you mad?Copy !req
115. Are you upset that
I disintegrated your arm?Copy !req
116. Get upset! I'm far more furious!Copy !req
117. Because of that ring you put in me,
I haven't slept right for weeks!Copy !req
118. I can't take it!Copy !req
119. I just can't take it!Copy !req
120. W-What's he doing?Copy !req
121. H-He's bawling!Copy !req
122. I thought he'd blow his top for sure.
This Esidisi is full of surprises.Copy !req
123. T-This is embarrassing.
He's throwing a tantrum!Copy !req
124. My poor arm!Copy !req
125. Some things are creepier than anger.Copy !req
126. I'll finish him quickly.Copy !req
127. Ahh, I feel better now.Copy !req
128. My emotions get out of control.Copy !req
129. When I'm about to lose it,
I calm down by crying for a while.Copy !req
130. You referred to Sun Tzu, right?Copy !req
131. I know him, too.Copy !req
132. Long ago, I journeyed to China.Copy !req
133. All war is deception.
To fight is to delude.Copy !req
134. Anger your enemies to lure them into mistakes.Copy !req
135. That's what you're planning, right?
I won't fall for it.Copy !req
136. But JoJo, I really am shocked at your improvements.Copy !req
137. I admire your Hamon.Copy !req
138. I've longed for a worthy opponent.Copy !req
139. W-What are you doing to his arm?Copy !req
140. It's a bit thin, but it will grow thicker in time.Copy !req
141. H-He's too much!Copy !req
142. He was crying a minute ago!Copy !req
143. Oh, JoJo, I believe I've frightened you!Copy !req
144. Admit it, you're scared of me!Copy !req
145. I-I can't read him!Copy !req
146. I've always read my opponents and used their feelings against them.Copy !req
147. But Esidisi's personality is beyond me.Copy !req
148. Am I the one being read, here?Copy !req
149. W-What's happening to Loggins's body?Copy !req
150. I-It burns!Copy !req
151. H-His body is boiling!Copy !req
152. How in the...?Copy !req
153. An animal's temperature rises when it moves or fights disease.Copy !req
154. I can bring my blood to 500 degrees and shoot it out.Copy !req
155. I sent my boiling blood into him when I took off his arm.Copy !req
156. Wamuu can control the wind with his Divine Sandstorm.Copy !req
157. But I am a master of fire.Copy !req
158. Heat is my domain!Copy !req
159. Your power to utterly destroy a body is astounding.Copy !req
160. But I can see you're just trying to scare me by doing it!Copy !req
161. Try a Clacker Volley!Copy !req
162. My Hamon isn't like it was a month ago!Copy !req
163. I really did frighten you.Copy !req
164. Your emotions caused you to attack recklessly and too soon, JoJo.Copy !req
165. My veins will inject boiling blood into your head and turn it into stew!Copy !req
166. This is why I am called the Burning King!Copy !req
167. JoJo...Copy !req
168. Take this, Caesar!Copy !req
169. Bubble Launcher!Copy !req
170. Stop! That's enough!Copy !req
171. If we continue, one or both of us will die.Copy !req
172. No, I hate to admit it, but I'd be the loser.Copy !req
173. I have trained here ten years longer than you.Copy !req
174. But your Hamon burned off all the hair on my right arm.Copy !req
175. What can I do after being shamed like this?Copy !req
176. You passed your final exam with flying colors.Copy !req
177. You're more interested in your good-for-nothing friend's exam, Caesar?Copy !req
178. I am only this strong because
I didn't want JoJo to outpace me.Copy !req
179. And both of us are going to survive our upcoming battle.Copy !req
180. I'll say this, JoJo seems lazy and impudent.Copy !req
181. But he's good deep down.Copy !req
182. You're bad at making friends, but when you do, I guess it's true love.Copy !req
183. T-That's...!Copy !req
184. Esidisi!Copy !req
185. That was a clever dodge.Copy !req
186. T-The mask protected me, but...Copy !req
187. H-Hot hot hot hot!Copy !req
188. Damn his blood!Copy !req
189. Blast it! These sexy lips finally come out from under the mask,Copy !req
190. and you just burned them, bastard!Copy !req
191. JoJo, on the surface you make witty banter.Copy !req
192. But in your head, you're planning, aren't you?Copy !req
193. You turned pale, JoJo!Copy !req
194. Did I hit the mark?
Was that a bullseye?Copy !req
195. My next plan...Copy !req
196. I-I'll use the string!Copy !req
197. I'll act like I'm dodging.Copy !req
198. But I'll run a string along these spikes while I move.Copy !req
199. I can't let him catch on.Copy !req
200. Once he steps inside the string,
I'll wrap him up, then use Hamon!Copy !req
201. T- That laugh means trouble.Copy !req
202. C-Could he be reading my plan?Copy !req
203. No, that's impossible!Copy !req
204. Here's the Burning King's Prison!Copy !req
205. How long can you keep avoiding my attacks?Copy !req
206. So you noticed at last.Copy !req
207. Why is my hat shrinking?Copy !req
208. You're caught in my web!Copy !req
209. My hat is 100% wool.
It conducts Hamon just fine.Copy !req
210. Oho?Copy !req
211. W-Why are you smiling?Copy !req
212. Is there a reason?Copy !req
213. Your next line is, "I'll wipe that smirk off your face!"Copy !req
214. I'll wipe that smirk off your face!Copy !req
215. B-But that's my trick!Copy !req
216. A web? Look around you!Copy !req
217. I am the one spinning a web!Copy !req
218. I knew about your little plan all along!Copy !req
219. JoJo, what did you say?Copy !req
220. "Victory is decided before the battle is fought," was it?Copy !req
221. True, true.Copy !req
222. True, true, true!Copy !req
223. How very true your words were!Copy !req
224. But my plans were the ones to go deeper and decide victory!Copy !req
225. My veins have given you some new holes.Copy !req
226. Now I'll fill them all with my burning blood.Copy !req
227. You'll look like a lovely birthday cake covered in candles!Copy !req
228. He's on a knife edge!Copy !req
229. H-He won't make it!Copy !req
230. Caesar!Copy !req
231. Judging from what I can see,
I assume Loggins is dead.Copy !req
232. If JoJo falls,
Esidisi will come after us next.Copy !req
233. JoJo's too far away for us to help now.Copy !req
234. It hurts, but we have to think about
Lisa Lisa and the Stone.Copy !req
235. Now, let's prepare to move.Copy !req
236. JoJo...Copy !req
237. Let me hear your screams as you twitch and writhe in despair!Copy !req
238. You laugh as I hold you on the edge of death?Copy !req
239. Has the fear driven you mad?Copy !req
240. Well...Copy !req
241. My arms are folded and my eyes are closed.Copy !req
242. This is a victory laugh, Esidisi.Copy !req
243. You lost today because you snoozed for 2,000 years.Copy !req
244. I lost? You say I've lost?Copy !req
245. Oh? You don't get it?Copy !req
246. You can't read me?Copy !req
247. You don't understand you've already lost?Copy !req
248. You said your plans went deep, but mine went even deeper!Copy !req
249. Humans have been progressing for the past 2,000 years.Copy !req
250. In the 18th and 19th centuries, sleight-of-hand became entertainment.Copy !req
251. I'm a huge fan of it.Copy !req
252. Illusion is my thing!Copy !req
253. B-But I cut those strings!Copy !req
254. How are they still whole?Copy !req
255. My rope magic worked!Copy !req
256. I laid my trap so that even ifCopy !req
257. the string was cut, it would be safe.Copy !req
258. A simple trick.Copy !req
259. Now you'll say, "My veins will move faster than your pathetic Hamon!"Copy !req
260. My veins will move faster than your pathetic Hamon!Copy !req
261. Feel the beat of my Hamon Overdrive!Copy !req
262. I can't... I can't...Copy !req
263. You're a human...Copy !req
264. I... I-I am the highest life form!Copy !req
265. I won't be beaten!Copy !req
266. That's it!Copy !req
267. You've pushed me too far!Copy !req
268. Esidisi's body is leaking some kind of energy!Copy !req
269. Is it the energy from millennia of life?Copy !req
270. Die already!Copy !req
271. Die with the power you stole from thousands of innocents!Copy !req
272. My instructor, I must thank you for torturing me.Copy !req
273. Grazie, Loggins!Copy !req
274. Santana turned to stone and only feigned death.Copy !req
275. But even Esidisi's bones were destroyed.
Why is he different?Copy !req
276. Maybe it's just because my Hamon became stronger.Copy !req
277. He's dead now, and I have one of the antidotes I need.Copy !req
278. I guess it reminds me of snot because it's dripping from a nose ring.Copy !req
279. But I have to drink it.Copy !req
280. All right! I think it worked.Copy !req
281. The ring around my windpipe is gone.Copy !req
282. So, now I'll go see
Caesar and Lisa Lisa.Copy !req
283. I think I used my head too much.
My shoulders are sore.Copy !req
284. How about the white one?Copy !req
285. Wait until we cross!Copy !req
286. But I really do like this design.Copy !req
287. I'll eradicate them.Copy !req
288. Which to choose?Copy !req
289. Damn it! I can't hit her!Copy !req
