In order to catch up with Diego and Hurt Panz, Jonny and Jello even left behind a lot of unnecessary luggage.
The speed of the two of them was getting faster and faster, and in just a few dozen breaths, they left Jon and the others behind.
Hearing the movement behind him, Diego looked back and immediately frowned.
Why are they?
Hurt Panz also noticed Johnny and Jero behind him, and said with a sullen face, "Let's make it clear first that my cooperation with you is limited to searching for the "Saint's Remains."
implication
——If you want to beat me, beat me yourself. I won’t accompany you.
Diego gritted his teeth and forced a smile: "...No problem."
Unexpectedly, Hurt Panz suddenly pulled the reins, "In that case, let's meet at the location marked by the 'stigma'."
After saying that, without giving Diego a chance to speak, he walked away from the original route and ran away on his own.
Diego was furious.
Damn you bitch!
Ahem...
never mind.
Now is not the time to vent your anger on Hurt Penz.
Looking back again, calculating the distance between the two sides, Diego was sure.
The substitutes of Jonny Joestar and Jello Zeppelin are better at mid-range combat. As long as he maintains his current speed, he will be safe!
"Don't let me catch you!" Diego took a deep breath, "Otherwise, I will make sure you look good!"
Johnny and Jello also noticed the "range" problem.
However, Diego's equestrian skills are almost as good as theirs.
When losing the initiative, it is indeed difficult to catch up with the opponent.
The situation is deadlocked.
Suddenly, a small town appeared in sight.
Diego secretly said "God help me" and rode his horse towards the town.
Johnny and Jero followed closely behind.
Entering the town, Diego dismounted and nimbly got into the narrow alley.
Seeing this, Johnny and Jero were a little embarrassed.
Street fighting is not their strong suit...
"Johnny, wait here." After saying hello, Jero continued his pursuit.
Johnny pursed his lips, but did not try to show off, and drove the old horse to the other end of the alley.
In the alley.
Diego ran away for a while, then suddenly stopped.
Geno, who was behind, didn't hesitate and threw the iron ball directly.
"Oh la!"
The iron ball spins, causing waves of golden ripples.
Diego turned his head suddenly, his face distorted and green scales burst out on his cheeks.
"Roar!"
The roar of the evil dragon is shocking.
Even though Jero had experienced many battles, he was caught off guard when he saw the terrifying and evil Diego, and he couldn't help but be frightened.
It’s too late to say it, but it will be soon!
Diego, who had transformed into a monster, moved.
He jumped up at an unnatural speed and easily dodged the iron ball thrown by Jero.
Open your big mouth, and the hot breath gathers in your mouth...
Jero's heart was beating fast. He didn't have time to think too much and threw himself to the side in confusion.
'call out!'
The dragon's breath surges wildly.
Brushing Jero's arm, he blasted towards the brick wall in the distance.
The next second.
The house collapsed!
"You are lucky." Half-dragon Diego sneered, "Next time, you won't be so lucky."
"asshole!"
Jero stood up with difficulty. There were scorch marks on his left arm, and it was obvious that he couldn't lift it up.
Diego smoothed his hair and said proudly: "It's amazing, isn't it? My substitute."
He pointed at himself, "'The Horrible Beast' is the name I gave it. Ferdinand once used his substitute to make me suffer a lot.
Now, this name belongs to me!"
"hehe."
Jero made no secret of his disdain, "If others have it, you should have it too. Diego, is this how you survive?"
Diego nodded, "Plundering is what I was born for. Human beings are like pigeons. If one goes to the right, the rest will follow blindly.
But I am different, I am not a dove, I am a falcon.
Fame, wealth, status, power, I want to plunder everything I like!"
Jero listened to Diego's words quietly, rarely interrupting.
Suddenly, his eyes flashed.
"Johnny, now!"
‘Chirp Mimi!’
The pink stand-in drilled out of the moving bullet hole in the wall, followed by a continuously spinning claw bullet.
Unexpectedly, Diego seemed to be on guard and reached out to grab him.
The revolving claw bullet was firmly grasped in his hand!
At the end of the alley, Johnny's expression changed.
Claw bullets are more powerful than chain saws, how dare Diego?!
"Hmph! You despicable bastards, you alone are trying to kill the great Diego Brando?" Diego spread his palms, revealing the armor that had stopped rotating.
Although his hand was cut with blood by the force of the rotation, the skin grew back in a few breaths, and there was no trace of scars anymore.
Diego turned sideways and stared at Johnny with his peripheral vision.
As if he was deliberately showing it to the other party, he picked up the nail plate and threw it into his mouth like peanuts.
"Crack, click, click," chewing randomly.
Then, he smiled proudly.
This magical operation made Johnny and Jero dumbfounded.
Ah this...
"Poor and weak." Diego commented calmly without changing his expression.
After coming back to his senses, Johnny didn't want to be looked down upon, so he said calmly in his unique stick-reading tone, "Ah, I'm really sorry, before I chased you, I went to a large number, and there was no paper around me, so.
.....”
The words are not finished, but the meaning is clear.
Diego's expression instantly became extremely wonderful.
Immediately, he said angrily: "Johnny Joestar, I will cut you into pieces!"
Johnny's tone remained unchanged, "I'm in a hurry, you're in a hurry."
It is said that "those who are close to vermillion are red and those who are close to ink are black." After staying with Jon for a long time, Jonny's black water will naturally turn into thick ink.
Although Diego is cruel and ruthless, in terms of bickering, he is no match for Johnny.
He was so angry that he swiped with one claw.
All of a sudden.
Dark clouds cover the sky and the wind blows violently.
"See the true power of the 'Terrible Beast'!"
Although Diego's ability is only the ultimate weakened version of "Blue Dragon Form", it is still not a problem to control the weather changes in a small town.
Johnny and Jero raised their heads.
'boom!'
Thunder struck down, attacking the two of them indiscriminately.
"oh!!!!!"
At the critical moment, Jero dared not hold back any longer.
Looking up to the sky and roaring.
The green iron ball was released boldly.
It is the secret technique of the Zeppelin family, "Golden Spin"!
Iron can conduct electricity.
The same goes for iron balls.
The iron ball emitting golden light hit Diego, not only causing ripples in the air, but even the sky thunder was attracted and merged with the 'whirlwind'.
Johnny's reaction was a little slower, but he also fired three rounds of spinning claw bullets with great cooperation.
There is a wolf in front and a tiger behind!
Diego, who had the upper hand just a second ago, was suddenly in a dilemma.
As a last resort, Diego can only reveal his true identity.
‘Peng’
Clothes burst.
Revealing strong muscles.
Under the watchful eyes of Johnny and Jero, his figure grew again and again, breaking through three meters in an instant and completely transforming into a humanoid beast!
‘Bang!’ ‘Bang!’
Thunder iron balls and spinning claw bullets hit Diego's body one after another.
However, it didn't cause him much harm.
Scanning the two people condescendingly, Diego looked sternly, "You are poor and weak! Inferior creatures are not worthy to be compared with me!"
‘I opened the sky with one punch and transformed into a dragon’
Diego the Dragonman makes his grand appearance!
"White teeth (not good)." Jero raised his hand and pressed the brim of his hat.
Even without his eyes, he could feel the terrifying power contained in that monster-like body.
Johnny's face was also ugly, and he asked: "Diego, have you given up your identity as a human?"
"Humans?" Diego shrugged disdainfully, "If you want to become stronger, you have to eat the "forbidden fruit"."
Meeting Johnny's eyes, he said word by word: "So, I'm no longer a human being, Johnny Joestar!"
Such pure malice made Johnny feel a little physically uncomfortable.
Diego doesn't want to talk nonsense. The dragon-like form consumes a lot of energy and must be fought quickly!
Strengthen your legs.
He rammed into Johnny like a heavy armored vehicle.
Johnny didn't dare to accept it forcefully, so he quickly moved his old horse.
The 'Slow Dancer' raises its hooves.
However, this speed is not enough in front of the Dragon Man Diego.
"die!"
A roar.
The 'Slow Dancer' was immediately stunned.
Caught off guard, Johnny was thrown off his horse.
When Diego saw this, he opened his huge mouth and bit Johnny head-on. Seeing this, he actually wanted to bite his close enemy to death!
Under any circumstances, Johnny will not sit still and wait for death.
He calmed down and raised his hand to shoot in one go. Several claw bullets penetrated Diego's mouth.
But Diego's defense and recovery power are really amazing. Even if he was injured, he didn't flinch at all.
Jero, who was chasing out of the alley, happened to see this scene, and his eyes were splitting!
Not surprisingly, Diego bit Johnny's shoulder.
"ah!!!!!"
Johnny screamed.
A trace of bloodthirsty madness flashed in Diego's eyes.
Devouring the enemy completely is exactly the style of Dio-sama.
Johnny Joestar, I will eat you completely and take away your "saint's body"!
Pain, fear, confusion...
His eyes turned blood-like red.
Johnny vaguely saw his dead brother, waving to him.
No.
It was not a wave, but a warning.
do not come?
Johnny was a little confused.
But in this half-conscious state, his lower body suddenly twitched.
Immediately afterwards, a force came from the soles of his feet, and violent golden arcs surged around Johnny, and he actually stood up against Diego's suppression!
"What?!"
Diego was shocked.
The confused Johnny kicked him violently.
'boom!'
This kick is powerful and heavy.
Even though Diego's body was as hard as steel, he was kicked away by this kick.
Of course, Johnny himself was not having a good time either.
A large piece of flesh was missing from his shoulder, and blood was pouring out. Under the action of his body's emergency mechanism, he rolled his eyes and lost consciousness.
That is to say, Ripple Qigong has the effect of stimulating body vitality.
Otherwise, the blood loss alone would be enough to make Johnny unable to get up again.
"Hiss~"
Diego swallowed Johnny's flesh and blood and stood up with a gasp.
What exactly happened just now?
A comeback, or Jonny Joestar’s hidden trump card?
He really couldn't understand.
At this moment, an iron ball flew and hit Diego in the back of the heart.
Diego was in pain and turned around angrily.
"Hey! Diego, don't go to Johnny, come and fight me." Jero drooped his left arm and said in a deep voice: "I am your opponent."
"Jero Zeppelin, don't worry, it will be your turn later." Diego was not fooled, "Wait until I kill Johnny Joestar, and then we can have fun again."
As a villain.
How can you not do a last-ditch attack?
Diego ignored Jero and opened his mouth wide at Johnny in the distance.
Jero was shocked. If Johnny was hit by the scorching ray, even if he had nine lives, it wouldn't be enough!
"I told you, stop the hell!"
How could he watch his good brother die in front of his eyes? Jero used all his strength to throw the special iron ball, which was his stand-in "Iron Ball Destroyer"!
‘baobao~’
Make the cutest sounds and do the scariest things.
The power of the ‘Iron Ball Destroyer’ and ‘Golden Spin’ is enough to crack mountains and crack rocks!
Diego realized something was wrong and ducked sideways.
Unexpectedly, the 'Iron Ball Destroyer' actually had its own guidance function and hit Diego on the shoulder as if it had eyes.
Not an inch too much, not an inch too little.
Exactly where Johnny got hurt!
"Don't think that you are the only one who can develop a substitute." Jero raised the corner of his mouth.
Diego stared at Jero with a gloomy expression. He was about to use his super recovery power to heal the injury, but unexpectedly, a "lesion" appeared on his shoulder.
"This is?!"
For the first time, Diego the Dragonman showed a look of horror.
Jero explained methodically: "When my 'Iron Ball Destroyer' is in the 'Golden Spin' state, it has the ability to continuously 'accelerate' the objects it touches, causing cells to proliferate, or produce 'lesions', or accelerate
Say "aging"."
After a pause, he showed his gold teeth and said, "This is scientific common sense."
Disease?
senescence?
Diego's heart skipped a beat.
No matter what kind of negative state, he doesn't want to get involved.
After taking a deep look at Jero, and then quickly glancing at the unconscious Johnny, Diego gritted his teeth and actually tore off his "disease-prone" shoulders and arms, took long strides and ran away.
Jero felt relieved, but he didn't dare to be too careless and try to catch up.
Diego, who ran away openly but was always paying attention to Jero's actions secretly, was indeed fooled. He found his horse without any regrets, controlled the horse with one arm, and left the town as fast as he could.
Looking at Diego's retreating back, Jero's feet softened and he sat down on the ground.
The "Golden Spin" just now had consumed all his energy.
If Diego didn't leave, it would be him and Johnny who would die.
"Huh~ That's too careless."
Jero pressed down his cowboy hat and murmured in a voice that could only be heard by himself.
He and Johnny were blinded by anger. Even though they knew Diego had the holy bones, they still abandoned the large army and chased them without thinking. As a result, they were almost wiped out by Diego's "Terrible Beasts".
.....
Shaking his head, he struggled to crawl towards Johnny.
After repeatedly confirming that Johnny was just asleep, he finally felt relieved.
But Jello didn't notice.
Behind him, a figure wearing a steel helmet appeared like a ghost.
Staring at Jero and Johnny in concentration, he chuckled.
"Come and count your sins."
The words fall.
The substitute ability takes effect.
A tattered pink bear strangely emerged from the glass bottle thrown by someone at Jero's feet...
