Chap 82: The end of The world
"I shall deal with you first, old hag, then your granddaughter will watch as I suck out the blood from your undead corpse." Dio said, a gleeful smile on her face as she took a step closer.
*Twitch*
Her feet halted, and her eyes narrowed. Turning it to where she believed the sound came from. It was a twitch, a very small, and should be untociable. But in a world where time has stopped moving, what could possibly move here besides Dio herself?
She stared intently at Jojo's finger, where she saw the smallest bit of movement coming from her finger.
*Twitch*
"WHAT!?" She flinched back a couple of steps, an expression of shock written all over her face.
"She just moved!" She can't believe it. "Impossible." Looking at the moving finger, her mind race back to the moment before.
"They're....the same type of stand ?" Her mind ran to find an explanation for this, such a bizarre event had occurred right in her world of stop time, and it startled her, before she can realized it, time had resumed.
"Did you see me ?" When they met eyes again, she asked.
However, Jojo doesn't give her the satisfaction of knowing the answer. Not bothering to answer, she just stood there looking without saying a word, looking back at Dio with a cold gaze.
"I ask if you can see me, Jojo!" She yells out in anger.
"Who knows." Golden aura spread over her body, "old hag, you take care of Polanle and Avadol. I'll take her on alone." Jojo, with the power of her stand, jumps high into the sky and flies off.
"Tch." Dio clicks her tongue and chases after her.
"Fine, i don't care if you can move in my stop time or not. Your death will be just the same."
------------
"Be careful." She wanted to yell and go after to help.
However, Jose also knows when she is outclassed. As it is, her power isn't enough to fight with. Dio is the formidable opponent to the Jojo bloodline that she is, a vampire whose power only grew since their last encounter.
She went to see the damaged state of Polnale and Avadol. They were alive, just bruised, and had some broken bones. The French woman got beaten to unconscious. Josane was thankful that her hit was cushioned by Avadol, who tanked some of that damage, but it came at the cost of them out of the battle for the rest of the night.
"Don't worry about us, miss Jostar. Go after them." The fortune teller mustered up the word through her bandaged body.
Takichi landed with Kakoyrin in his arms, Josane raised her attention and went to check on her. And while she did it, he makes a run and chases after them.
"Hey, kiddo! wait!" She was too late to catch them. When she turned around, he was already off, leaving her to tend the rest of them.
'This is better.' Takichi thought about it as he swung from building to building, the people who were supposed to be killed should stay behind.
Iggy, Avadol, Polnale, and miss Jostar as well.
All of those who would be killed are alive. Takichi just needs to assist in bringing Dio down. Using curse speech as an ending move might work, but he can't use it more than once. He has one chance, one shot, and he can't miss it. In order to have a full effectiveness of his technique, Dio must be weakened to a certain point.
The sound of people screaming and running around made him turn in that direction. There, down on the pavement, is Jojo's body playing dead.
'Good, i'm not too late.' Takichi quickens his pace.
Dio had just chopped down a traffic sign and was holding it to behead Jojo when Takichi, covered in Yellow temperance, shoulder slammed into her.
The next moment, Takichi held in his chest as a force impacted his chest, and he was flung backward into a nearby building.
*Cough
It took him great focus not to blank out on the rubble floor, the pain he is feelling was so much. Being hit in a time stop, he expected it to hurt badly, and it did. He can sense several ribs were broken, and if he didn't receive medical attention soon, they would prove to be fatal.
But by doing this, he also made Dio, use a time stop, also dropping her guard and approach Jojo's body. Through a small creak of his eyes opening, he sees Dio raising the signup and swinging it down hard.
*BANG* the sign had hit the floor hard, but to Dio suprised expectation.
"What !?"
Star Plantium was ready, she deflected the swing in the last second. The stand grinds her teeth in anger as a punch of all the force she pours in. It flew through Dio's skull, crushing every inch of the vampire's brain as it passed by.
"ORA!" Star Plantium shouted out in an aggressive tone, the stand voice bubbling in ferocious intensity.
The dio body twist like a ragdoll as she hit a wall, crumbling it down, and picking up a field of dust.
"Finally, i was able to bash her head in."
Holding herself up, Josano kept a grip on her injured arm. She looks beaten with multiple stab wounds, by sheer will was she manages to rise and fight Dio.
"I'll kill you!" She roared, struggling to speak.
One thing Dio has yet to notice is the state of her own body, she isn't handling the hit so well because a blood fountain spews out in huge quantities from her head.
"I'll..." She tried to rise, but her body didn't follow her will and slammed her head back to the ground.
"What is this....? Impossible! M-my legs..." No matter how much she wanted to stand, her shaking feet couldn't get up. The hit did severe damage to her brain, and now she is suffering brain nerve damage.
"I have....nausea, my eyes are dizzy...how could this happened ? Me, Dio, feeling sick ?" She questions her own power. In a hundred years of living, she didn't think this could ever happen to her.
'Damn, i need to do something.' Just thinking alone was hurting her mind. She needs to come up with something fast.
Had she killed the old Jostar, she would have been able to make a plan to return and drink her Jostar blood. It would power her up and give her a winning chance. But that was only possible without the intervention of Takichi. In this timeline, she won't have that chance.
"F̴̡̼͖͔̹̬̝̤̠̤̃͗̾̏̔̌̚͠ͅr̶̡̩̲͈͎͕͚̘̗̦͓͕̹͌̃́̍̈́͂͌̎̈͊͜ê̸͙̲͚̬͕ḝ̴̨̣͚͚͇͇̩̣z̵̢̜̦̹͈͕͈̖̰͔̀̀̀̀̂̅̑̂ė̶̢̼̠͙̼͕͚͔̿͆." Words from Takichi voice resounded.
Dio body when stifled by his words, further locking her from making any move.
'What ?! Why can't i move ?'
Her already shambled mind can't comprehend the situation she was put into, the imposing shadow of Jojo looming over her did not waste this chance.
"There's just one reason why you lost, Dio. One simple reason, you are a piece of shit that makes me angry. That is all."
With all her might, her hand winded back. Fusing with the souls of her own, she stands into it, exploding forward a single punch.
"ORA!!!"
When Jojo's fist collided, the impact hit Dio with enough force to knock her head right off. Dio head's burst into many bloody pieces, making a gory mess.
Dio with her stand, The World was utterly defeated. And are now dead.

(Tojiko's pov)
“Fast,” Kanami observed. The nature spirit’s vines shot forward, each one thick with life-draining cursed energy.
Tojiko ducked, weaving through the barrage like a phantom. With a flick of her wrist, the spearhead spun like a grass cutter. The vines were cut through easily, and the spear then came smashing into Kanami’s shoulder with bone-crushing force, sending the cursed spirit tumbling through a series of trees.
"You think, you girls can stop me ?" Tojiko exhaled, rolling her shoulder, “Weak.” she spat.
The battlefield was silent except for the flickering of dying flames.
This battle is one-sided, but even so, she stood her ground. They are tasked with stalling her from going anywhere for at least thirty minutes.
Normally, the Curse spirit wouldn't agree to do something so wasteful of time, but she wanted to see how strong is this 'Zennin' so she accepted Senjaku's request.
Now, facing her in person can she register just how absurdly strong this human is. She who has absolutely no curse energy but can fight on par-no, she can outclass both of them using just pure physical strength.
"You're really strong. But still human, a human without curse energy." Joso sneered, raising her charred hands. "Burn away to nothing!" She raised a hand, fingers curling into a precise formation. Her other hand joined in creating the hand seal, interlocking to form the intricate shape needed.
"Domain Expansion: Coffin of the Iron Mountain!"
The sky darkened as an oppressive heatwave spread outward. The air thickened as an overwhelming surge of cursed energy exploded from her body. The ground beneath cracked, magma bubbling up from the fissures.
