1. At last you show yourself,Copy !req
2. Dio!Copy !req
3. Bravo, Polnareff.
You managed to avenge your sisterCopy !req
4. while traveling all the way
from the Far East.Copy !req
5. To celebrate I shall gladly
take your life.Copy !req
6. I'll give you one chance.Copy !req
7. Descend two steps and live.Copy !req
8. I'll let you be my servant again.Copy !req
9. If you choose death,
rise forth to me.Copy !req
10. At our first encounter,
fear overcame me like a curse.Copy !req
11. I let myself submit to your evil.Copy !req
12. It was the beginning
of a futile existence.Copy !req
13. An existence more horrifying
than death itself.Copy !req
14. a life consumed by the sole desire
to do your bidding.Copy !req
15. But that fear is gone.Copy !req
16. The only thing that consumes me now
is a burning will to fight.Copy !req
17. In the 45 days since I first met
Mr. Joestar and the others,Copy !req
18. I've traveled the globe and watched
my friends die at my feet.Copy !req
19. I'll never be scared of you again.Copy !req
20. Are you sure about that?Copy !req
21. Then climb these stairs.Copy !req
22. Interesting, Polnareff.Copy !req
23. You've descended the stairs.Copy !req
24. So you do want to serve me,
after all.Copy !req
25. What?Copy !req
26. But I went up the stairs.
I'm positive...Copy !req
27. What's wrong?
You appear shaken, Polnareff.Copy !req
28. Could it be that you're scared?Copy !req
29. In your mind
you thought you stepped up,Copy !req
30. but perhaps your descent is a case
of fear overriding consciousness...Copy !req
31. That's impossible!
I know I just climbed the stairs!Copy !req
32. What did he do?
Is it his Stand?Copy !req
33. Could it be...Copy !req
34. Dio's Stand...Copy !req
35. The World?Copy !req
36. What is...Copy !req
37. Polnareff, ever wonder
what the human soul desires most?Copy !req
38. It is human nature to want
to overcome anxiety and fear,Copy !req
39. to live free from worry.Copy !req
40. People seek fame,Copy !req
41. they control others,
they acquire wealth.Copy !req
42. All for a sense of security.Copy !req
43. Marriage and friendship is merely
a means of securing peace of mind.Copy !req
44. Humans say they wish
to help others,Copy !req
45. for the sake of love and justice.Copy !req
46. But this is only to settle
their own minds.Copy !req
47. The foremost desire
of the human psycheCopy !req
48. is to achieve a sense
of secure serenity.Copy !req
49. Why then would you
possibly hesitate in serving me?Copy !req
50. If you do my bidding,
all I speak of will be yours.Copy !req
51. Are you not afraid to challenge me?Copy !req
52. You know that your death
will be certain.Copy !req
53. It can't be!
Am I unconsciously submitting to him?Copy !req
54. You are a talented Stand user.Copy !req
55. It would be a shame to kill you.Copy !req
56. Betray Joestar and become
my everlasting assistant.Copy !req
57. I promise you unending peace.Copy !req
58. I must resist.Copy !req
59. Avdol, Iggy,
I need your courage!Copy !req
60. Cut the crap, Dio!Copy !req
61. I've already died once.Copy !req
62. If I die trying to figure outCopy !req
63. your Stand's abilities,
then so be it!Copy !req
64. Then you leave me no choice.Copy !req
65. Prepare to die, Polnareff!Copy !req
66. Is that The World? Bring it!Copy !req
67. Futile!Copy !req
68. Mister Joestar!Copy !req
69. Don't worry, Polnareff.Copy !req
70. Dio!Copy !req
71. Was that Dio?Copy !req
72. Come on,
before he gets away!Copy !req
73. I have something
I have to tell you first.Copy !req
74. I saw him use his Stand,
but only for a moment.Copy !req
75. Or, well, I didn't so much
see it as feel it...Copy !req
76. I can't explain exactly.Copy !req
77. Look, here's what happened.Copy !req
78. I was climbing
the stairs toward him,Copy !req
79. when all of a sudden,
I was below where I started!Copy !req
80. I know it doesn't make any sense.Copy !req
81. I don't get it either.
I don't know what he did.Copy !req
82. I feel like I'm going crazy.Copy !req
83. And it wasn't some hypnosis trick
or feat of supersonic speed.Copy !req
84. It was a sense of something
wholly and completely terrifying.Copy !req
85. Where are Avdol and Iggy?Copy !req
86. They didn't make it.Copy !req
87. They died trying to save me.Copy !req
88. I see.Copy !req
89. Mister Joestar, the sun is setting.Copy !req
90. We need to hurry.Copy !req
91. You're right.Copy !req
92. Hey, loser. What's upstairs?Copy !req
93. The towers.Copy !req
94. There's also a room at the top.Copy !req
95. It's Lord Dio's dwelling
during the day.Copy !req
96. Is there another staircase
to the tower?Copy !req
97. No. These stairs are it.Copy !req
98. Fine, lead the way.Copy !req
99. So that's him.Copy !req
100. We've never met, but I've known
about him my entire life.Copy !req
101. Yes. I've known him all along.Copy !req
102. Since the day I was born.Copy !req
103. The same goes for Jotaro.Copy !req
104. We'd hoped this day
would never come.Copy !req
105. But we always knew
we had to destroy him.Copy !req
106. As Joestars we knew,Copy !req
107. one day, we would have
to come face-to-face with him.Copy !req
108. I have no regrets.Copy !req
109. About the journey I've made,
or what's about to unfold.Copy !req
110. I accept it all.
To me, it's never been clearer.Copy !req
111. This feeling. I feel embraced
by lightness, by good.Copy !req
112. Dio is the absence of light.
The void.Copy !req
113. Joseph and Jotaro are my light.Copy !req
114. My body is battered,
but I have no fear.Copy !req
115. I have goodness, the light,
by my side!Copy !req
116. We attack when he steps
out of the coffin.Copy !req
117. Be ready.Copy !req
118. Who knows what's in there.Copy !req
119. Loser, open the coffin.Copy !req
120. Lord Dio, I swear,
I haven't betrayed you.Copy !req
121. I led them here because I know
you will dispose of them.Copy !req
122. I'm certain of it!Copy !req
123. As certain as a man wets himself
when pissing in the wind.Copy !req
124. Please understand!Copy !req
125. Shut up and open the coffin!Copy !req
126. Please, oh please,
kill these bastards,Copy !req
127. Lord Dio!Copy !req
128. Get ready, this is it!Copy !req
129. Huh?Copy !req
130. Me?Copy !req
131. Why am I inside?Copy !req
132. - But I was opening the coffin!
- What?Copy !req
133. How?Copy !req
134. I never took my eyes off him!Copy !req
135. Did any one of you see
the loser get inCopy !req
136. or get placed in the coffin?Copy !req
137. No. I was watching
the whole time,Copy !req
138. and then, suddenly,
he was inside!Copy !req
139. Polnareff's right!Copy !req
140. This isn't a mind trick.
And it's not super speed!Copy !req
141. Shit.Copy !req
142. This isn't some game!Copy !req
143. Run for it!Copy !req
144. Damn it!Copy !req
145. What are you doing, Polnareff?Copy !req
146. Damn it!Copy !req
147. What was that?Copy !req
148. I couldn't see it, but I could
sense it is far more powerfulCopy !req
149. than any Stand we've ever
come across before.Copy !req
150. It was like knowing
a bulldozer is behind youCopy !req
151. just from the sound of its engine.Copy !req
152. I sensed it, too.
That insane lust to kill us!Copy !req
153. It felt like someone shoved
an icicle straight up my ass!Copy !req
154. If we hadn't escaped,
we would've all been killed!Copy !req
155. This is bad... This is really bad.Copy !req
156. The sun's almost below
the horizon!Copy !req
157. Darkness is Dio's domain.
He has the advantage now.Copy !req
158. Don't tell me you're planning
to retreat until dawn.Copy !req
159. Listen, Mister Joestar!Copy !req
160. I'm not running away now
with my tail between my legs!Copy !req
161. I'm with you, Polnareff.Copy !req
162. Listen, I agree with both you.
But the tables have turned on us.Copy !req
163. We may've encountered
his Stand, The World,Copy !req
164. but we have no clue
as to what it can do.Copy !req
165. It's like climbing a mountainCopy !req
166. without knowing the route
or knowing where the summit is.Copy !req
167. Fighting him now would be
a guaranteed disaster!Copy !req
168. It's as inevitable as burping
after drinking cola!Copy !req
169. We know Dio will come after us!Copy !req
170. He'll try to finish us off
before sunrise!Copy !req
171. In the meantime,Copy !req
172. we can figure out the true extent
of his Stand's powers.Copy !req
173. We need to wait
for that opportunity.Copy !req
174. No! I can't run!Copy !req
175. Avdol and Iggy died
because of me!Copy !req
176. I'll fight dirty.Copy !req
177. I'll go to Hell and back.
I'll do whatever it takes to destroy Dio.Copy !req
178. But I won't run away!Copy !req
179. Wait, Polnareff!Copy !req
180. Forget it, old man.
It's no use when he's like this.Copy !req
181. Jotaro, what do you think
we should do?Copy !req
182. Polnareff is going after Dio
to fight him.Copy !req
183. We're retreating,
but we'll also be fighting him.Copy !req
184. Which means,Copy !req
185. we'll attack from both sides.Copy !req
186. Hey, you.Copy !req
187. We want to buy your truck.
Sell it to us.Copy !req
188. What'd you say?
This baby's my bread and butter!Copy !req
189. What're you...Copy !req
190. I'm flooring it, Kakyoin!Copy !req
191. So, Dio, you finally show yourself!Copy !req
192. Run away until dawn?
Like hell I will!Copy !req
193. I'll settle this on my own!Copy !req
194. I don't know how Dio's Stand works,
but it doesn't matter.Copy !req
195. I'll find a way to defeat him!Copy !req
196. I'll assassinate him!Copy !req
197. Not so fast, Polnareff!Copy !req
198. I told them we need to let you goCopy !req
199. 'cause it's no use trying
to convince stubborn guys like you.Copy !req
200. But the old man and Kakyoin
insisted I stick with you,Copy !req
201. so here I am.Copy !req
202. Jotaro!Copy !req
203. Good grief.Copy !req
204. THE WORLD
DIOCopy !req
205. Ah, the automobile...Copy !req
206. Such impressive power and speed.Copy !req
207. In my youth, all we had were
horse-drawn carriages.Copy !req
208. Hold it right there!
What do you think you're doing?Copy !req
209. This car belongs
to U.S. Senator Mr. Phillips!Copy !req
210. Wanna puke out your eyes?Copy !req
211. My, my... Young people these days.
So full of piss and vinegar.Copy !req
212. Ow!Copy !req
213. Hold your tongue and proceed
to the front seat. It's time to drive.Copy !req
214. Who the hell are you?Copy !req
215. Do you think you can
get away with this?Copy !req
216. That's right, this is unforgivable!Copy !req
217. No one gets away with doing
something like this to me.Copy !req
218. I was valedictorian
in high school and college!Copy !req
219. I was captain
of my college wrestling team!Copy !req
220. Even after graduation,
people respected me.Copy !req
221. That's how I became a politician!Copy !req
222. I'm owner of a villa
on a thousand-acre plot of land in Hawaii!Copy !req
223. My wife is a gorgeous model
twenty-five years my junior!Copy !req
224. I pay fifty times more taxes
than anyone in this town!Copy !req
225. I destroyed every enemy
who's every stood in my way!Copy !req
226. And someday,
I'll become president.Copy !req
227. I'm Senator Phillips, dammit!Copy !req
228. You listen to me, punk!Copy !req
229. I'll make sure you rot in prison!Copy !req
230. You hear me? You'll live the rest
of your life behind bars—Copy !req
231. I'll say it one more time.Copy !req
232. Drive.Copy !req
233. What is this guy?
He's going to kill me!Copy !req
234. If I don't get out of here,
he'll kill me!Copy !req
235. Someone help—Copy !req
236. What?Copy !req
237. What?Copy !req
238. I thought I jumped out of the car,
so why...Copy !req
239. Why am I back in the car?Copy !req
240. Why am I back inside?Copy !req
241. Catch up to that truck.Copy !req
242. Fail and I'll kill you.Copy !req
243. Yes, sir.Copy !req
244. Why am I still inside? Why?Copy !req
245. Ah, of course!
It's because I'm a senator!Copy !req
246. There's nothing
a senator can't do!Copy !req
247. I can still sense Dio's sinister,
foreboding bloodlust.Copy !req
248. He's after us.Copy !req
249. I know he's following us!Copy !req
250. Does Dio know
your precise location?Copy !req
251. No. He stole the body
of my grandfather, Jonathan Joestar.Copy !req
252. I can sense his body somehow,Copy !req
253. but I can only tell
that he's close by.Copy !req
254. I can't pinpoint
his exact location.Copy !req
255. The same way
I could tell he was in Cairo,Copy !req
256. but I couldn't narrow down
the precise location of his lair.Copy !req
257. All he knows is
that Jotaro and I are nearby.Copy !req
258. But he can't tell the difference
between us.Copy !req
259. Most likely he hasn't realized
that we've split up.Copy !req
260. That's strange.Copy !req
261. Cars always start up
when they do this in the movies.Copy !req
262. It's a traffic jam.Copy !req
263. The evening commute
is always like this.Copy !req
264. Keep going.Copy !req
265. But there's nowhere to go.Copy !req
266. There's plenty of room
on the sidewalk. Go.Copy !req
267. The sidewalk?Copy !req
268. It's covered with people
heading home from work!Copy !req
269. I don't care. Go.Copy !req
270. Yes, sir!Copy !req
271. - Step on it.
- Yes, sir!Copy !req
272. Okay, it's running.
Get on, Polnareff.Copy !req
273. Right...Copy !req
274. See what I do for you!Copy !req
275. You'll spare me...Copy !req
276. You'll spare this senator's life
now, won't you?Copy !req
277. No.Copy !req
278. That's it! This is a dream!Copy !req
279. I'm a senator.
There's no way I could die.Copy !req
280. It's a dream! A dream! Hooray!Copy !req
281. There they are.
Catch up. Get closer.Copy !req
282. I can't use The World
unless I'm close to them.Copy !req
283. He's getting closer.
It's that car! Dio's in there!Copy !req
284. Kakyoin!Copy !req
285. Kakyoin's...Copy !req
286. Take this, Dio! Emerald Splash!Copy !req
287. Incredible!Copy !req
288. He deflected my attack
with one finger.Copy !req
289. And all while sitting
perfectly still!Copy !req
290. Then what about this?Copy !req
291. I concentrated the Splash,
but he still dodged it.Copy !req
292. Damn!Copy !req
293. When did he bring out his Stand?Copy !req
294. How could I've missed that?Copy !req
295. He's too far away.Copy !req
296. He flew out of The World's range.Copy !req
297. What's happening?Copy !req
298. And what would I get
by telling you?Copy !req
299. Pay attention to the road
and drive.Copy !req
300. Careful, Kakyoin!
You're too close!Copy !req
301. Forgive me. I didn't...Copy !req
302. I remember a few months ago
when he said to me,Copy !req
303. "Are you really going
to vomit out of fear?"Copy !req
304. "Relax, Kakyoin, relax..."Copy !req
305. Bastard! Never again!
I won't lose again!Copy !req
306. Kakyoin, are you all right?Copy !req
307. Did you catch a glimpse
of The World?Copy !req
308. Yes. I attacked him
from around ten meters away.Copy !req
309. If I had gotten any closer,
I would have been done for.Copy !req
310. It's clear his Stand holds
a power more horrificCopy !req
311. than we could ever imagine.Copy !req
312. We may not know its secret,
but we do know two things:Copy !req
313. First, his Stand can't reach
as far as my Hierophant GreenCopy !req
314. or your Hermit Purple.Copy !req
315. It's a close-range power Stand,
like Star Platinum,Copy !req
316. and has a range
of about ten meters.Copy !req
317. Second,
it attacked me with its fist,Copy !req
318. so it doesn't use
projectile weapons like bullets.Copy !req
319. If we can sneak up on him
and get within ten meters,Copy !req
320. we might have a chance.Copy !req
321. We have to figure out his secret,
but we also need to proceed carefully.Copy !req
322. We can't be
too careful with Dio.Copy !req
323. Something's up.
His car stopped.Copy !req
324. Watch out!
Something's hurtling this way!Copy !req
325. Mister Joestar!Copy !req
326. What are you doing, Kakyoin?Copy !req
327. I've got it.Copy !req
328. I know how to find the secret
of his Stand.Copy !req
329. I wonder why I get goosebumps
when I think about Avdol and Iggy.Copy !req
330. Perhaps because
they were the first friendsCopy !req
331. I shared a common goal with.Copy !req
332. This journey to defeat Dio.Copy !req
333. Show me your Stand, Dio!Copy !req
