JOJO: Bizarre Adventure

"It seems to be over."

Let's go back to the day before Sano Kinji woke up, in a small town in Japan.

A boy sat on the rooftop, looking down at the town below.

Two hundred and seventy-five.

He slowly uttered a number.

"This is the 275th cycle, which is equivalent to eleven and a half days."

The boy looked tired.

"What exactly happened? How could this happen? It's been almost half a month since the last time we did it. Who has the ability to do this, and why?"

He couldn't figure it out, so he simply stopped thinking about it.

The boy stretched out a big yawn, then turned around and slowly walked downstairs.

The setting sun, by stretching its shadow, sends a signal to people: today is a beautiful day.

"Asai,"

On his way home, a boy about the same age as the teenager waved and greeted him.

"What's wrong? You look so tired."

"Oh, I'm fine. I probably just didn't sleep well last night."

"Haha, see you tomorrow!"

"great, see you tomorrow."

After parting ways with her friends, Asai Megumi returned to her home.

"This ability is really troublesome."

Special feature on Kinji Sano.

This story takes place after the apocalyptic war and before Kinji Sano's strange adventure.

"Hey! I'm telling you, you better stop this now!"

Duwang Town, in front of Yin Shiming's house.

"Please, Brother Otoshi Akira!"

Sano Kinji, with an expression that said "I'm about to die," grabbed Otoshi Akira's pants and wouldn't let go.

That's not just about kneeling down to beg him; it's already kneeling down to beg him.

"Why are you bothering me? Would it kill you to go find someone else?!"

Otoshi Akira wanted nothing more than to call out "Spicy Red Pepper" and beat the kid up, but he didn't actually do it.

"That's because you're handsome, you sing well, you're kind, and your character is outstanding..."

"Alright, alright, alright!"

Akira Otoshi is really having a headache.

"I heard from them that you used to make money at casinos, how come you're so poor now? Did Oda Goyoshi block you?"

Upon hearing this, Sano Kinji immediately shuddered.

"Please don't mention it,"

He was almost in tears.

“That was true before, but do you know who’s running the casino now? Lizzie Borden!”

That feeling made him feel incredibly wronged.

"That crazy woman, I beat her up badly before. I beat her up and then got arrested. That madwoman has a terrible temper. If she sees me again, she'll chop me into mincemeat!"

Upon hearing this, Akira Otoshi also remembered that terrifying woman.

"Okay, okay, I'll listen to you for now, but why me? Can't it be someone else?!"

"That's because you're handsome, you sing well, and you're kind and have good character..."

"If you keep spouting nonsense, I'll have 'Spicy Red Chili' grind you into mincemeat first!"

Seeing the bird-headed man suddenly appear, Sano Kinji swallowed back all the words he was about to say.

"That's because we're good friends..."

"Bullshit! Who says we're on good terms with you!"

"No, don't be angry. You know my network of connections, except for you... Ah, that's not what I meant, you are definitely..."

His words were interrupted once again.

"no,"

Otoshi Akira said in confusion:

"I remember you two were pretty close, weren't you? What was your name again? Oh right, Kenji Mishima. Why don't you go find him?"

Upon hearing what Otoshi Akira said, Sano Kinji looked somewhat embarrassed.

"You must be joking,"

He scratched his head.

"You know Mishima's abilities. If I go to him and he uses his powers even once, I'll be in trouble for a day."

"..."

Akira Otoshi was speechless.

"Alright, alright, come in."

He said helplessly.

"I'm warning you, if you ever end up unable to pay rent or afford food again, don't come looking for me, or I'll smash your head open with 'Spicy Red Chili Pepper'!"

"Yes, yes, brother is right."

"By the way, can you cook?"

"know a little."

"Okay, you can cook dinner tonight."

"Alright! Leave it to me!"

"Also, I'm going to play music tonight, so you have to come over and listen carefully!"

"yes, Sir!"

…………

Meanwhile, at the Morioh headquarters of the Morioh gang.

After finally finishing his work for the day, Oda Goyoshi lay down on a recliner to rest.

Although there aren't many things happening in the gang on a regular basis, there are still quite a few.

The Du Wang Gang is the largest underground organization in all of Japan, and the work intensity of its senior members is definitely much busier than that of ordinary yakuza bosses.

He just lies in his villa, indulging in a life of luxury, occasionally exchanging a few words with his underlings.

But it's the same job as going to work, although the workload is really small every day. Countless people would love to have a job like that.

It's not hard work, but it's really worrying. They're earning the money of selling cabbages but worrying about the work of drug dealers.

He... Oh right, the [Du Wang Gang] doesn't sell heroin.

In short, it's very worrying.

Just look at his group of subordinates; they're all a handful.

For example, Kinji Sano.

This kid is notoriously cunning, lazy, greedy, and slippery. He'll sit if he can, and lie down if he can.

When you occasionally give him some work to do, he always makes all sorts of excuses to refuse.

So Oda Goyoshi simply stopped paying him, but since he was still a member of the organization, Oda Goyoshi couldn't just ignore him.

So he always let Sano Kinji go to the casino to make money, and he basically won money from the casino because there were no gamblers to gamble with him.

Of course, Oda Goyoshi wouldn't let him win so easily. After all, the money in the casino didn't come from thin air. They weren't the kind of guys who would do anything for money. The Du Wang Gang wouldn't do anything too heinous.

Whenever things were almost over, the casino staff would advise him to leave. After a while, the guy realized how much he was willing to lose and would quit on his own when he felt he had played enough.

But since Lizzie Borden became the person in charge of the casino, Kinji Sano hasn't been to a casino in a long time.

Oda Goyoshi originally wanted to find an opportunity to help him, but then he heard that this guy had approached Otoshi Akira.

Oda Goyoshi shook his head, realizing he had been too soft-hearted.

They're all adults; even if this kid does it again, he can't always rely on the organization for help.

So he simply stopped caring and let the kid fend for himself.

…………

Morio Town, Casino.

Lizzie Borden sat against the wall, her eyes closed as if she were asleep.

She never expected things to turn out this way.

Lizzie Borden volunteered to work at the casino specifically to stalk that bastard Kinji Sano.

She still hasn't forgotten the grudge of being defeated by the Du Wang Gang headquarters.

As a result, this kid hasn't come to the casino for so long, so... oh well, whatever.

However, she truly regretted it. Had she known this would happen, she would have applied for a position like a combatant.
