Lee Sin's Bizarre Adventure

Chapter 325 Usage of Ouroboros

1999年4月6日，18点08分。

In the astonishment and puzzlement of Li Qing and others, Diablo's figure first turned into a phantom and disappeared in just 1 second.

Then, almost without any interval, just the next moment, he reappeared in the same place strangely.

And when he reappeared, Diablo, who was completely intact before, had turned into a blood man with eroded flesh and twisted bones.

As soon as he appeared, he slumped on the ground powerlessly, and the blood stains all over his body dyed the silver-gray wet cement under his body red.

Look at Diablo's miserable appearance
It seemed that he would die in pain without any further action from everyone.

"What are you doing?"

Everyone was shocked by Diablo's unimaginable operation.

But Jotaro didn't hesitate.

His position was closest to Diablo, and Diablo, who was seriously injured and paralyzed, was right in front of him and Platinum Star.

Although I was a little concerned about Diablo's performance just now, the moment Diablo reappeared in front of my eyes
Jotaro suppressed the hesitation in his heart at the first moment, and made the most correct choice:

"Attack, Platinum Star!"

Platinum Star, which had been ready to go for a long time, set off another storm at this moment.

The vast power contained in the knotted muscles poured out like a flood at this moment, and it seemed that Diablo would be swallowed and submerged in the next moment.

The Platinum Star exploded at full strength, attacking a fragile human who was close at hand and seriously injured.

The outcome of this attack was almost certain.

However, in the surprised and suspicious eyes of everyone
Platinum Star's fist went straight through Diablo's body.

Diablo seemed to have turned into a mass of air, a phantom, no matter how powerful the Platinum Star was, it would not be able to affect him.

"The attack penetrated again"

"What happened in the last second is repeated."

"His body became 'empty' again the moment he returned, and the Platinum Star's attack couldn't work at all."

Jotaro frowned slightly, and a bad feeling crept into his heart.

He didn't understand Diablo's ability at all, and he didn't know why this guy disappeared, reappeared, and then disappeared again.

The unknown will always make people nervous and tangled.

What made Jotaro even more uneasy was Diablo's expression at the moment.

When he disappeared for the first time a second ago, his face was full of despair and confusion.

But now, after reappearing with serious injuries, Diablo's expression became firm and confident:
"I get it. I get it at last."

"There has never been any trash's substitute ability, only trash's substitute messenger."

"I actually wasted so much time because of despair and confusion, and I have never been able to tap the potential that "Ouroboros" should have. "

With fanaticism in his eyes, Diablo muttered to himself words that no one could understand.

At the same time, his body is rapidly becoming blurred and transparent.

An invisible force of time and space is rapidly transforming his body, and will soon throw him into the elusive river of time.

Now Diablo is "invincible", no one can hurt him.

And with the Ouroboros that can refresh the cooling time infinitely, he doesn't have to worry too much about his self-protection after returning.

"but."

"The time-stop of Platinum Star is a trouble after all."

Diablo has long realized that Jotaro, who can control time, is his real threat compared to Lee Sin, who can only punch.

If Platinum Star seized the opportunity to stop time, no matter how powerful he was, he would not be able to display it.

"How to solve this trouble?"

"Wait. I thought of it!"

A flash of light flashed in Diablo's mind:
He seems to have discovered another usage of Ouroboros besides "refreshing the cooling time".

"Kujo Jotaro."

At this moment, the flowing time seems to stand still.

During this almost static time, Diablo silently recited the name that once terrified him.

Looking at Jotaro, and the Platinum Star who had intimate contact with him twice, his gaze was extremely calm.

"That's right. Although I spent a full hour on March 3th."

"But for the current Jotaro on April 4th, he should have spent less than a second."

"And in such a short period of time, he just used the ability to stop time once!"

Because conversations, thinking, and mental activities all become time-consuming under the influence of some mysterious world rules.

Therefore, the timeline experienced by Jotaro and others is actually like this:
1.1 seconds ago, Diablo awakened with an arrow in despair, and the ability of "Ouroboros" began to activate.

0.8 seconds ago, Li Qing sensed the presence of the arrow and called out to Jotaro to stop it.

0.5 seconds ago, Jotaro received the reminder and reacted, and quickly approached Diablo in the stopped time.

0.1 seconds ago, Diablo completely blurred and disappeared.

0.1 seconds ago, Diablo returned with a serious injury, and almost at the same time used "Ouroboros" again.

In other words, the last time Jotaro used the time stop was only 0.5 seconds ago.

"The ability to stop time should also have a 'cooling time'?"

"Otherwise, if you can use it continuously, you should have used it when you just attacked."

Diablo suddenly said to Jotaro with a playful expression:
"Well, since you can't use time-stop continuously."

"The you who just used this ability 0.5 seconds ago, can you use it again now?"

He just smiled sinisterly, as if he had discovered something interesting.

But the bad premonition in Jotaro's heart suddenly became stronger:
Indeed, the ability of "time stop" cannot be used continuously.

"Time Stop" has a cooldown time, but its cooldown time is actually very short, so short that it only needs to rest for a breath before it can be used again.

One breath is almost 1 second.

And now the time has only passed 0.5 seconds.

This means that in the remaining 0.5 seconds, Jotaro can't use the time-stop ability - there is no doubt that this short 0.5-second gap will be when his defense is weakest.

"But... does Diablo have the ability to defeat me?"

"It's only 0.5 seconds, what method will he use to break through the Platinum Star's defense?"

Jotaro still didn't see through Diablo's cards:

Even though he can't stop time as he likes within 0.5 seconds, he still has humanoid beasts like Platinum Star as guards.

Want to solve the Platinum Star in just 0.5 seconds?
Jotaro didn't think Diablo, who was seriously injured, would have such abilities.

And Diablo didn't give an answer to this.

He just glanced down at the watch on his wrist in this almost stagnant time:

This is a top-level watch that he bought as a luxury once when he was the boss of the organization. The time accuracy is extremely high, and there is almost no error.

And when Diablo looked down, the second hand on the dial was pointing to the next scale at this moment:
"21 seconds."

"19:08:21."

He quickly calculated and thought in his mind:
"Subtract the 1 hour I spent in the past, the exact time should be now."

"Exactly 18:08:21."

Diablo firmly remembered this time.

Then, a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he said astonishing words like a prophet:
"Jotaro, let me tell you."

"You will die in the 18st second of 08:21—"

"In this second, in the next moment."

Jotaro was silent.

He had no idea where Diablo's confidence came from.

But it was precisely because he didn't know that he felt nervous.

At this moment, Diablo's figure has turned into nothingness, and he is now completely in an 'invincible' state where he cannot be attacked.

And Platinum Star's time-stop ability has not been restored.

Jotaro can't do anything, he can only do his best to prevent Diablo's possible attack at any time, and he doesn't know what kind of attack it will be.

"What will be Diablo's hole card?"

"How will he defeat me in this short 0.5 second gap, and from which direction will the attack come from?"

Questions still linger in my mind.

And in the next instant.
Caught off guard, the ground under Jotaro's feet burst into flames!
And this fire wave didn't just bloom under his feet alone.

This avenue that had just been repaired and leveled was submerged in the flames at this moment!
The flames soared into the sky, and the road was wiped out again.

"Success."

Diablo's empty body loomed in the flames.

The impact of the explosion could not hurt him at all.

He will soon go back in time to realize with his own hands what he witnessed at this moment:
"Sow the seeds in the past and reap the victories in the future."

"This is the true power of "Ouroboros"! "

boom!
The flames of the explosion swept all directions.

The huge sound wave is like a tsunami.

In the distance, the road repair workers who had already evacuated from the scene stopped because of the loud noise behind them.

"Brother, is this business done?"

Looking at the explosion smoke steaming on the road in the distance, a road repairman asked the foreman nervously.

The foreman did not answer directly, but first looked down at his watch:
"Exactly 18:08:21."

"One second is exactly right, the bomb exploded at the time requested by the customer."

He breathed a long sigh of relief, and then he said to his younger brothers with a sigh of relief:
"Our mission in Duwang Town is officially over."

"Let's go back and find the head of the family to return to life now."

As he said that, the foreman looked back with a complicated expression and glanced at the place where they had worked all day:
"It's better to stay as little as possible in Duwang Town."

"En!" A group of younger brothers all nodded in agreement.

This peaceful suburban town seemed eerie to them from the start.

Because the task they received is full of evil spirits:
Two days ago, on April 2th, a mysterious customer placed an order from the society they worked for from the dark web.

The big client offered a reward of up to 5 million yen and asked them to plant a large number of time bombs silently on a certain road in Moriwang Town.

This task is very strange.

If it wasn't for the association's business slump since the Great Bubble period, and the economic situation was so bad that members of the association needed to run a construction company part-time to subsidize them, they wouldn't have accepted such an obviously strange commission.

And just after these underworld members took the 5 million big order and came to Duwang Town, something even stranger happened:
They were still struggling with how to quietly plant a bomb on a town road without anyone noticing.

But it was like drowsiness meeting a pillow. On April 4th, a so-called "bald superman" appeared out of nowhere, and just rightly broke the section of the road designated by the customer into pieces.

The road is broken at this time, and these underworld members can just pretend to be road workers to perform tasks.

This is of course a good thing for them.

But looking back and thinking about it carefully, it seems very strange that the mysterious customer already knew that the road would be damaged at this time.

Not to mention, there is also a "bald superman" who can smash the whole road into pieces.

The foreman thought it was just a ridiculous urban legend.

But after the pavement repair work really started, he witnessed the huge fist marks deeply embedded in the ground in the ruins of the avenue that was smashed into powder.

"Evil door. This place is too evil."

"Let's go quickly!"

The foreman shivered unconsciously.

He finally confirmed the scene of the explosion in the distance, and then left with his younger brothers without looking back.

1999年4月4日，17点01分。

In an ordinary convenience store in Moriwangcho.

Diablo was waiting in line at the cash register to pay.

He just noticed that the blond man in a suit behind him had a faint smell of blood on him.

This of course caught Diablo's attention.

But the aura of the blond man is too ordinary, as ordinary as a stone on the side of the road, no matter how many times he looks at it, he won't leave an impression on him.

No matter how he looked, he didn't look like a stand-in messenger, nor did he look like a fellow with blood on his hands.

After some hesitation, Diablo gave up further investigation.

He began to concentrate on waiting in line for the checkout, while the blond man behind him was also boredly waiting for Diablo, who was in front of him, to pay and leave.

That blond man is called Yoshikage Kira, and he just wants to go home quickly with the "girlfriend" in his pocket.

If there is no accident, these two strangers who met by chance will never have any intersection since then.

But accidents always happen at the right time as written by fate:

"Swipe your card."

Diablo obediently handed over his card to pay the bill like an ordinary person.

There is a huge sum of 5 million yen in this card, which is enough for him to continue to live a wealthy life without worrying about money after fleeing to a foreign country.

However, in Diablo's unique, confident, calm and gentle gaze.
The cashier suddenly raised his head in embarrassment and said:

"Sir, there seems to be no money in your card."

"what?"

Diablo's expression froze:
Are you kidding me? Where's my money?

　Something was delayed. I started rushing to codewords at 8 o'clock in the evening. I feel that the state is a bit poor, and the quality of the rush is average.Just one update today (〃ω)
