~JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, Part 7: Steel Ball Run Worldline~
"What's going on? Is the Saint about to descend upon the world in this way?"
At this moment, Johnny Joestar, covered in cold sweat, watched Lucy gradually transform into the Saint's Corpse! He wanted to seize the Saint's Corpse to stand again, but he didn't want to be devoured by it!
"..."
In contrast to Johnny's panic, Gyro calmly watched everything!
It was still unclear what kind of miracles the Saint's Corpse could trigger, and what kind of power that golden light carried was still unknown!
But intuition told him that the golden light definitely possessed extraordinary abilities! If the President were to obtain it, he would become even more difficult to deal with...
Lucy's body was gradually being occupied by the Saint's Corpse, a somewhat horrifying scene! But it didn't seem entirely unacceptable.
After all, even a single piece of the Saint's Corpse already possessed wondrous abilities, so it wasn't impossible that gathering all of them would trigger such a miracle...
But now, it should be the final battle! Would the complete Saint's Corpse revive the Saint? Or would it bring about a new evolution? Everyone watched with anticipation.
[ Diego, knowing the President's ability, directly abandoned his horse and ran towards the train, throwing his money to use the law that parallel world objects annihilate upon contact, easily injuring his parallel world self and Hot Pants, and jumping onto the train.
Hot Pants then remembered what Diego had just said, that people from parallel worlds don't know they will annihilate upon contact, so he told her to abandon her horse to prevent what just happened.
Hot Pants, following Diego's instructions, abandoned her horse and ran to chase the President's train. But Hot Pants Number Two from the parallel world picked up her mount and sped along, catching up from behind.
Seeing her parallel world self getting closer and closer, Hot Pants was covered in cold sweat, reaching out and running quickly towards Diego on the train, shouting loudly, "You told me not to ride a horse... See, she's catching up to us!"
"I want them to catch up." Diego reached out and pulled Hot Pants onto the train, replying.
After speaking, he looked back at Diego Number Two from the parallel world, who also climbed onto the train at this moment. Taking advantage of their close proximity, Diego unexpectedly slammed the door panel over, and the two of them disappeared into the door seam.
"Those two fell out of the door seam at the connection between the carriages, so the gap in this door is the entrance and exit for them!"
"I know the President's weakness!"
Arriving inside the carriage, the two immediately saw the President, Lucy, and Mr. Steel inside.
Diego then asserted, "Today, right here, the President will die! The Corpse is unique to the base world and cannot be taken to parallel worlds."
"The President will definitely defend the Corpses; he will never hide in other worlds like before. This persistence is his greatest weakness."]
.....
~Projection of All Worlds~
The confidence in Diego's words infected the audience outside the video, giving them the thought that he could really defeat the President!
"Maybe there really is hope to defeat the President; Diego has figured out Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap's ability."
"It's hard to imagine figuring out the opponent's ability after only one encounter! These people's combat intelligence is too terrifying."
"But the carriage is full of gaps, so the battlefield is probably more favorable to the President, but the dinosaurified Diego has extraordinary reaction and perception! Maybe he can counterattack before the opponent activates his ability."
The direction the train is traveling is basically the same as the race's route, and the President is heading straight for New York by train. This long-lasting battle for the Corpse will usher in the final showdown on this stretch of road.
[ The dinosaurified Diego is as fast as a ghost, and the President can only barely defend against him with his Stand! In the blink of an eye, the two have thrown dozens of punches! Then, the two take a step back.
The President's chin has a deep wound dug out by Diego, and blood spurts out as soon as he stabilizes.
At this moment, Diego's face is full of mockery, "Smash you into the wall? Or attack with both hands from the left and right?"
"Don't be silly... I won't do any of that. I will never let you get caught!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he rushed out again. This time, the President jumped back and came directly behind the door, pulling the handle to try to trap him.
But before he could act, a hand stretched out from the keyhole, holding the door firmly!
"You can't hide in the door seam either!" Hot Pants, who was guarding behind, was waiting for this moment.
The President failed in one plan and jumped up, intending to go to the gap between the sofa and the wall! But Diego reacted in time and kicked the sofa away with one foot ....
Who wanted to use this force? Raising his hand like a knife, he stabbed towards the President. This move was unavoidable, and then the President chose to give up defense, summoned D4C, and grabbed Diego's neck.
Even if Diego pierced his neck, the President could use the moment he pressed down to go to a parallel world.
Seeing this, Diego gave up attacking the opponent's neck and chose to attack both arms, and then the President fell alone, his hands also cut off, but a curtain floated over to where he fell.
"Crap!..." Diego was covered in cold sweat, it would be terrible if he went to a parallel world.
Fortunately, at the critical moment, Hot Pants shot again and picked up the fallen curtain, and Diego seized the opportunity! Directly slashed the President's throat with a palm!
"Ugh..." The President let out a scream, and blood splattered out.]
.....
~Projection of All Worlds~
"Won... won?!"
This series of operations was simply unbelievable; every moment felt extremely dangerous.
Once the President was trapped and allowed to go to a parallel world, all previous efforts would be in vain, but unexpectedly, Diego and Hot Pants cooperated to forcibly prevent the opportunity to activate the ability.
~JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, Part 3: Stardust Crusaders Worldline~
"Hoo~ Well done!"
Dio nodded to his parallel world self's operation!
That's right, D4C's ability is indeed terrifying, but only when trapped... Once he can't activate his ability, the President's Stand is just a slightly stronger blank slate.
Without being able to be trapped, he can't go to a parallel world to change bodies and can only wait quietly for death to come. This also means that the battle is over!
~JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, Part 7: Steel Ball Run Worldline~
At this moment, the President's face became extremely gloomy, his heart full of anger. He didn't care that the future him died at Diego's hands; after all, he already knew the future, and it wouldn't happen again.
He was angry that his abilities and weaknesses had been revealed, and it wouldn't be so easy to seize the Corpse next time...
Unlike the angry President, Gyro and Johnny, on the other side, breathed a sigh of relief. After all, the unknown is the most terrifying.
Now that they know the opponent's ability and weaknesses, they won't be so nervous if they really fight later...
