TM : [54] Experiment
🕑 Added 2023-10-17 16:03:01 +0000 UTC"You... Are you Mr. Jerry? No—wait... who are you?" JOJO turned around to look at Kazuya.
"No, I am Jerry. Heh heh... I am Jerry Copperdale," Kazuya said, revealing his current identity, his arms crossed. "JOJO, and DIO... you've come at just the right time. I've just gained this power, and now I can experiment with it on both of you. But!"
Kazuya looked at the Stone Mask in JOJO's hand and launched an attack—
Space Ripper Stingy Eyes—
This move was originally created by DIO, and in the manga, Jonathan Joestar, that is, JOJO, perished due to this move. The key to this move was compressing the fluid in the eyes and shooting it out. It had incredible and terrifying piercing power—
"Ah—!"
With a soft hiss, the fluid-formed line pierced the Stone Mask, shattering it and leaving a small hole in JOJO's hand.
However, it only succeeded partially. While the fluid squeezed out of one eye, it didn't form the full "Space Ripper Stingy Eyes." In other words, the first experiment was only half successful.
"I have enough power with just myself. In case of any mishap, I must destroy the Stone Mask!"
What... was this?
What was that just now?
DIO was stunned; that scene exceeded his understanding. What was shot from the eyes? Was it a move that humans could use?
In that moment, DIO felt tremendous fear and ambition!
He wanted... he wanted to obtain that power.
However, in the next moment, his heart went cold...
From Kazuya's tone, he could tell that he had obtained that power from the Stone Mask, which was now destroyed. In other words, no matter what, he couldn't obtain that power anymore?
"You... cursed fiend!!" Filled with an indescribable rage, he couldn't maintain his facade any longer. "You damned bastard!!"
"D... DIO..." JOJO hesitated. He had never seen DIO this angry before. Was he angry at Jerry's actions? Or was he furious about the Stone Mask being destroyed?
DIO was about to say something when his expression suddenly changed—
Kazuya rushed towards him at an incredible speed!
"So fast!" DIO had always considered himself fast and agile, but this person in front of him was even faster—
But he was still DIO, and he managed to dodge to the side at the critical moment—
However, even so, the fist grazed him, though it didn't kill him outright.
"Arghh—"
A large amount of blood spewed from his mouth as DIO was sent flying into the nearby wall. Countless bones in his body were broken.
"This... this guy—" DIO struggled to get up, but he couldn't do it—
"Too weak! Pathetic, pathetic—" Kazuya shouted JOJO. "I haven't even used half of my strength, and you're already in such a pitiful state... Haha... are humans really this weak? JOJO, can you hold on for a few seconds against me? Five seconds? Or maybe four seconds? Or will you be sent flying like DIO in an instant—!"
Kazuya felt that he was in excellent condition, completely immersed in the role he was playing—
He was filled with a sense of power.
It was amazing, truly wonderful! This feeling was a thousand times more satisfying than anything he had experienced in his lifetime—
JOJO was trembling; this was an existence beyond his understanding.
Especially that power, it could send a person flying so far? And it didn't even have to hit directly. Could humans perform such moves?
The Stone Mask? What did it have to do with the Stone Mask?
Is Jerry no longer human?
"Ugh—ugh—J... JOJO, this guy—" DIO struggled to stand, looking at JOJO who had taken a step back, biting his lip. That guy was sending him a signal!
Although it was an unfamiliar signal, after being with JOJO for so long, he understood.
That guy... JOJO was telling him to escape!
'Alright, JOJO... I'll run now. You can die here, JOJO!' DIO slowly backed away—then suddenly, he looked at the entrance and stopped.
"Ha... hahaha... hahahaha—Jerry! Your time is up!" DIO shouted triumphantly.
"Huh?" Kazuya turned back and saw a group of police officers rushing in.
"Are you Jerry? And the Joestar family's child... What happened here exactly? We heard a loud noise like a door being forced open, so we rushed over. However, due to the rain, we were a bit slower. What's going on now?" The police chief looked around in confusion.
"Chief—there's something wrong with Jerry. He's acting really strange!" DIO yelled.
But he didn't need to say anything; everyone had already noticed that something was off—
Kazuya moved quickly and approached the police chief, sucking his blood—
"What... is this—?"
It was evident that the police chief's body was rapidly withering under his grip—
"Fire—fire!" The other police officers panicked and started shooting at Kazuya.
Kazuya didn't dodge!
With his sensitivity to firearms and his current strength, he could have easily dodged them, but he didn't!
Bang, bang, bang, bang—
Bullets indeed penetrated his body, even piercing his brain—
But...
"What... what is going on? He... he didn't die—?" DIO stared at Kazuya, who was clenching his fist. 'Cursed—Stone Mask's power... why didn't I notice it? I've been in the Joestar house for over five years without discovering this power! Damn... now that the Stone Mask is broken, I'll never have a chance to obtain this power again! Incredible power and immortality! What a perfect ability!'
