[Three days later, NAPOLI pier]

The rain started in the evening and continued until late at night.Large and small water splashes splashed on the deserted road, mixed with dust and rushing towards the drain.The gathered thick clouds could be vaguely discerned on the pitch-black sky, and the lightning split the turbid night, briefly reflecting the rugged outline of the building.There are high and low containers piled up on the pier, and a long plank road extends independently from the shore. Several empty speedboats are swaying on the swaying waves, and the cargo ship that docked not long ago emits a low hum. , the bitter sea wind howled, whipping the waves and hunting.

Men in rain ponchos gathered around from both ends of the road on the flat and uninhabited low ground.They stood silently on both sides of the starting point of the long and narrow plank road, keeping a safe distance. The dim street lamps cast a pale gleam in the wind and rain. Hugh in the rain.

Torrential downpour.

Jotaro stared at the night pier through his wet forehead.They chose Napoli Port as a place for hostage exchange - the terrain here is low and open, there is no high ground that can be used as a sniper point, and the port is connected to the high seas, and the speedboat is ready. Once the godfather is successfully taken back, this long journey will also be drawn. Dot.

The breath of the rolling waves made Jotaro straighten his back, and the thin and sharp thread in his brain tightened his nerves.

The night was dark and unclear, and the huge waves were churning like boiling—as if the cliff was still under his feet, and the rain that fell from the sky 15 years ago penetrated the night and dripped into his palm.Jotaro watched silently as the continuous line of rain dropped an overwhelming net in his sight, and both sides were fully assembled.

The sound of rain hitting the eardrums.

Someone cut Jonathan's arms backwards and pushed him out of the crowd. His head was covered with a black bag, and his steps were heavy and slow.Jotaro turned sideways, motioning for Abdel to bring Giorno up.

Silently, the two sides gestured that they were ready, and at the same time tore off the bags on their heads.

The rain drenched Jonathan's dark blue hair, and the wound on his cheek was bleeding finely due to the beating of the heavy rain. Although the rain splashed on his head made it difficult for him to even open his eyes, the godfather still stood silently and straight .The rain poured into Giorno's nasal cavity, and he opened his mouth to drink some cold liquid. He couldn't see Dio, but only Jonathan's eyes, and a guttural voice like a cub squeezed out from between his lips.

They were led into the middle ground where no one was.

The light from the street lamp illuminated the faces of the four people.

The handover person on the opposite side was a man wearing glasses, his lips were tightly pursed, his slightly long black hair was hidden under the poncho hat, and the lenses were covered with uncleaned raindrops.He and Abdel searched each other and confirmed that neither was carrying any weapons. "Godfather." Abdel stared at the godfather, the street lamp reflected the star on his neck very clearly, Abdel made a confirmed gesture to Jotaro, and he protected Jonathan on his left side.

Jotaro nodded in response, his fingers touched the remote control in his pocket, his index finger slid over the cold buttons one after another, and finally landed on the red button.Kakyoin stood behind him without saying a word, his ears glowing red—his gun was already loaded.

The black-haired man stretched out his hand, also in a gesture of confirmation.

"bump--!"

The piercing bullet fiercely pierced through the curtain of rainwater, spinning and piercing Abdel's head.The black-haired man brushed away the hair that fell on the side of his face, revealing his shiny ears—there was a mast on the freighter that just landed this evening, and Vanilla was lying on the back of the sail, His fingers holding the sniper rifle tightened, and once he made a gesture, he would cleanly deal with Joestar's liaison just like the Boss requested.Abdel's body fell on his back in an instant, and the rainwater rolled down from the ends of his hair and pooled into the bloody pool behind his head.

The rain hit Jotaro's eardrums.

His Adam's Apple rolled up and down—the harsh aim moved to Jonathan's forehead.Jotaro clenched his hands into fists in his pockets, the cold remote pressed against his surprisingly hot palm.The black-haired handover pushed Giorno behind him, blocking the blond boy with his body. "Godfather, this is to save your juniors." The man grabbed Jonathan's hair fiercely, making him look directly at Jotaro, "Look at them for the last time."

"You should thank me for your dying gift."

Jotaro's pupils shrank suddenly, the sound was not loud, but it penetrated the rainy night, the ticking of the hour and minute hands, like a wedge driven into his heart, it was the voice of the devil deep in his memory.His teeth clenched, crunching through the bones.Jotaro's voice was heavy and clear, "Your speaker has enough gunpowder strapped to his body." He pulled his hand out of his pocket suddenly, and the rainwater poured on his fingertips, and fell on the remote control. Go down and make a splash on the ground.

"As long as I press down."

"Everyone will die."

The rain fell continuously.

The wind lifted Jotaro's forehead hair, revealing a pair of dark blue eyes, the man raised his chin haughtily, "I advise you not to act rashly." The black-haired handover stopped moving, holding Jonathan's finger Into the opponent's muscle, he almost gritted his teeth and asked, "How do I know if what you said is true?"

"You can try."

"Look how many people are going to be buried with the godfather."

The handover man dragged Jonathan back to the crowd behind him. Giorno was firmly protected by the handover man's body. It was a familiar figure from his back—Jiorno knew that it was his father. Dior's presence is felt. "Father." Giorno's soft call was blown away by the wind and rain.Dio narrowed his eyes, and he looked at Jotaro behind the glasses-15 years had armed this otherwise stupid, childish guy with strength.Jonathan Joestar gave everything he had, and he came back here to take it back.Giorno must not die here, and neither can he.Rain dripped from Dio's hat brim and hit the toes of his shoes.

A dead silence.

Only the sound of rain engulfed the waves rolling down.

Jotaro still kept his grip on the remote control, his muscles tensed to the point of spasms, his thumb resting on the keys.Jotaro went to find Jonathan's eyes - as far as he could remember, Godfather had never done anything wrong, and he regarded his family as the only one.He was waiting for Jonathan's order, and as soon as Jonathan spoke he would press the button immediately, but Jonathan avoided his eyes and remained silent in his eyes.

Godfather curled his lips, and he said in a hoarse and soft voice, "Are you going to watch your son get blown to death like this?" Jonathan's voice came to Giorno's ears through the crack of the rain, and he was caught by Dio With the guard behind him, he could only vaguely see Jonathan's side face as the rain slammed on the godfather.Jonathan lowered his head, he stared at his dirty shoe toes, his hysterical voice cut through the sound of rain, "Dio Brando——"

"Do you want to see your son get killed?"

The thin thread broke.

It sliced ​​through Jotaro's heart, and returned to the rainy night 15 years ago—his blue eyes froze into ice in an instant.Jotaro watched helplessly as the black-haired handover took off his glasses. Even though it was raining heavily, Jotaro still saw those cold red eyes at a glance.Kakyoin stiffened his body involuntarily, he felt that his wrist seemed to be out of control, fear climbed from the gland, from the genital cavity, from the wound of the eight guns into his blood vessels, and spread to the heart.

Old nightmares come back.

No one moved, the rain hit their bodies.

Jonathan said hoarsely and slowly, "Stop it all." He raised his wet and sad eyes, "Dior." Jonathan's voice dropped, the lingering appellation from the past scattered into the rain and broke into an indistinct ending. "What happened 15 years ago was my fault, my own fault. But it has nothing to do with Jotaro or Giorno." The rain splashed on Jonathan's forehead and nose, and then rolled into him. "Your hate, I will bear it alone." As if his identity was reversed 15 years ago, Jonathan couldn't find Dior's eyes—he felt that Dior's fingertips were icy cold, but he could no longer warm him a cent.

"We've had enough of this misfortune." He lowered his eyes, and the pent-up pain in his chest exploded in his throat, "We've all been stuck in our past mistakes for too long. Please, stop—just for Jolu No." The blond boy clenched his fists slightly, and the birthmark on the back of his neck was hot, "No matter what, I always want you to be happy," Jonathan kissed Dior's pale fingertips covered with rain, "May God bless you."

Dior's former Alpha exudes a strong smell of white oak due to excessive mood swings. This smell used to dazzle him and make him extremely happy.And now the rain-wrapped wetness of the white oak was pouring into his nostrils, and the smell irritated Dio, who was no longer a complete Omega, not even a complete human being.His fingers clenched Jonathan's neckline, strangling Jonathan out of breath, "God never has mercy on me." Dio growled, "You don't have to either."

They retreated towards the crowd behind them step by step, and Giorno was properly protected behind him.Dio stiffened his back, the rain fell against his cheeks, if it wasn't for his child - Giorno would never have died here.Dio stared at the scarlet spot on Jonathan's forehead, "Three seconds count down." He raised his chin, and the corner of his mouth curved into a cold arc, "Jonathan Joestar," Dio forcefully turned Jonathan's face to Jotaro, " Tell Kujo Jotaro to throw away his remote control. Then, I will withdraw the sniper."

"three"

Jotaro's fingers loosened and tightened, tightened and loosened again.

"two"

Raindrops rolled from Jotaro's forehead to his chin.

"One"

He stared at the godfather silently, his Adam's apple rolled up and down, Jotaro finally let go of his index finger, he threw the remote control into the sea forcefully, and the small spot of light was instantly swallowed by the waves.At the same time, the sniper's aiming point moved away from Jonathan's forehead.

"Stupid Joestar." Dio sneered under his breath, pointing his arm at Jotaro.In the next second, the sniper's aiming point rested firmly on Jotaro's temple - Kakyoin raised his gun subconsciously, and pointed his muzzle tremblingly at Dio's head, even though he also knew that he would never shoot at this range. Probably faster than a sniper.The rain dripped into his mouth, and Kakyoin felt suffocated. He couldn't help recalling that afternoon 15 years ago, when Dior's shadow once again covered his head.That man always took away his precious things, he breathed heavily—"Kakyoin-senpai." Kishibe Rohan's voice came from behind his ears, "Are you okay?" Rohan's words were accompanied by mechanical noises After pouring it into his ears, Kakyoin calmed down a little and responded in a low voice, "According to the trajectory of the sniper's first shot, Jousuke is narrowing down his range, and the drone is conducting a thermal radiation search."

"Okay." Kakyoin clenched the cold and slippery cloth on her chest with five fingers, and replied in a low voice.

"From the moment you threw me into the sea, I have hated promises."

"That's the end of everything." Dio dragged Jonathan back into the crowd, his cold fingers pressed against Jonathan's forehead, and he smiled maliciously, "Farewell, Jotaro."

Jotaro didn't take a step back.

——"Senior Kakyoin, the sniper is at the mast—behind the first sail. I'm synchronizing your shooting direction." Kakyoin's wrist trembled violently, and his Boss stood motionless in the pouring rain , looking forward as always.Kakyoin stared at the man's indestructible back, he couldn't put Jotaro in danger.Kakyoin will guard Jotaro's back, just like he has done countless times before.Kakyoin gritted his teeth and raised his gun. For the first time in his life, he wasn't sure whether he could be killed in one shot - he pulled the trigger at the sound of Rohan's "now" prompt, and a black shadow fell from the mast. Then there was a huge sound of falling water, and the red dot of the sight shifted from its original position.

The smile froze on Dio's face, and the killing intent made his muscles tense.That gunshot ignited the humid air on a rainy night—"Shut—!" Everyone raised their guns, and the smell of gunpowder smoke filled the port on a rainy night. Under the fierce confrontation between the muzzles of the guns, only the rain continued to fall on the ground.Dio reached out and pulled out the subordinate's gun, he pushed Giorno completely behind him, and the rope tied around the speaker's wrist was also untied by his subordinate.Dio's dark red eyes were burning in the shadows, and the muzzle of the gun was pressed against Jonathan's head—"Godfather is here, Jotaro. Don't rush to shoot."

No one dared to move.

Jotaro stared at the godfather's lips that were about to part, he would shoot or not, as if he was waiting for a verdict.Jonathan avoided Jotaro's eyes again, his son standing behind him, who had promised Giorno's safety. "If the fire is all over now, everyone may die here." Jonathan's tongue had a numb bitter taste, they were clearly connected by blood, but his brother and his son were about to fight, "Dio Brando, let me down It's just me."

However, this is not just revenge, Dior is here to take back everything that belongs to him.He looked down at Jonathan's wet hair with a sneer, "You said you owe me, Jonathan." He tightened his godfather's throat with one hand, "Then I'll give you a chance."

"It's not that I can't put down the gun, Godfather, as long as you tell them now." Dio narrowed his eyes dangerously, and the muzzle of his gun pressed harder against the back of Jonathan's head, "Tell everyone in the Joestar family! Giorno It's yours and mine, and he will inherit everything from the Joestar family. All of you, including Jotaro Kujo, swear allegiance to him."

"As long as you promise me, I'll make them put down their guns."

"If you let Jotaro and the others go." The godfather's voice fell into the sea like rain, "I promise you." Dio pulled Jonathan's hair tightly, and he couldn't help showing a winning smile, "You haven't heard Arrived? Godfarher said, he promised me." His dark red eyes stared at Jotaro Kujo, like a poisonous snake spitting out a bright red letter.

Jonathan was drenched by the torrential rain, and Jotaro's brother stood silently surrounded by the enemy, with his former lover and only son behind him.Someone behind Jotaro put down their guns hesitantly, and then more people put down their guns, and almost everyone put down their guns, except Kakyoin.Jotaro stared at Jonathan's face - he could be described as scarred, Godfather tired and tormented.Jotaro loosened his arm slowly, the muzzle of his gun slowly lowered, and the next moment he felt a savage resistance, Kakyoin threw himself against his arm, his coral-colored hair sticking wet to his cheek , his face was covered with meandering water, "No." His hot fingers squeezed Jotaro's wrist, and moved to Dio's forehead, "No." Kakyoin couldn't tell whether his face was rainwater Still tears, all he knew was that he would never let Jotaro put down his gun. "Don't trust Dior Brando." Are all his dreams just a dream in Shuiyue Jinghua?He has already paid an irreparable price for this. ——Jotaro looked deeply, deeply into Kakyoin's frightened eyes, he tightened his lips, and finally lowered his arms.

Kakyoin collapsed to his knees in the rain.

"Now, let Jotaro and the others get out of here first." His vision was full of blurred rain, and Jonathan felt the coolness reaching his throat when he opened his mouth, "After returning to the main house, I will issue an order to announce the successor .”

"Kujo Jotaro, you can go—"

Dio Brando let it go arrogantly, and he has already taken the posture of being in power.

The members of the Joestar family walked towards the speedboat at the end of the plank road one after another.They turned their backs to their family and their godfather, and fled with their families lost in the precarious wind and rain.

When we return to the main house, everything will be as Dior wishes.Giorno will inherit the Joestar family, and all that Dio lost will be recaptured. He wants to ignite the flames of power and drive out his former enemies.Dio grinned, and spat out vicious words from his soft lips, "I just promised them to go, I didn't say how to let them go", he pulled the bolt, "Smash the legs of those people for me, let them crawl back to Rome go."

He ordered so.
