Chapter 172 The Godfather and His Copper-Headed Leather Belt
Chapter 172 The Godfather and His Copper-Headed Leather Belt
Dalio squinted his eyes and looked at George, who had closed his eyes because of grief. He then glanced at the umbrella-holding nobleman with sympathy and sadness on his face, and his yellow eyes rolled around.
"It seems that this guy regarded me as his savior, and the nobleman did not suspect anything."
"Hehehe, these two idiots."
'It won't hurt to tell him.'
Dalio took off the cheap wool round hat on his head and saluted George on the ground with a not-so-standard salute: "My name is Dalio Brando."
"Chu Ke." Chu Ke also spoke up, "A businessman from the East."
"Mr. Brando, Mr. Chu, I'm Joestar." George slowly breathed a sigh of relief, and his muscles twitched due to the pain: "I will never forget your kindness!"
"Pah!" A slight crisp sound came from the ground not far away, but because the sound of the rain was covered, only Chu Ke heard the movement.
Chu Ke, holding an umbrella, turned his head and saw that the source of the strange noise was a stone mask on the ground in the distance. Because of the contact with the coachman's blood, ten bone spurs popped out from the edge of the stone mask, bouncing the mask up like spider legs and dropping it to the ground.
Zuko turned his gaze back to George: "We'll talk about these things later. Your carriage and servants are dead. If you don't mind, I can give you a ride."
"Thank you for your help, Mr. Chu." After George said this, his injuries worsened, perhaps due to the stimulation of the cold rain. His head tilted and he passed out.
Zuko shifted his gaze to Dario, who was standing aside with a dark look in his eyes and wondering what he was thinking: "Leave this to me, Mr. Brando."
Dalio raised his head and looked at Zuko's body vaguely.
'He looks young and strong, but he may not be able to win.'
If the person in front of you is an elderly person, you can consider knocking him down together with the other person and then taking away the money from both of them.
After thinking it over again and again, Dalio nodded and said, "Then I'll trouble you, Mr. Chichu. I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."
After saying that, he clenched the ring he had looted from George in his hand, lowered his head, and quickly left with the woman behind him.
Without paying attention to the other party's slip of the tongue, Chu Ke watched Dario leave and then gently helped George up from the ground. Then he bent down and picked up the stone mask whose bone spurs were slowly retracting.
“Is this the root of everything?”
The moment he picked up the world marble, Chu Ke knew that this world was the famous "JOJO's Bizarre Adventure" series.
The timeline he is in now is the beginning of the first season, and it is also the beginning of everything - the protagonist's father fell off a cliff and met the corpse-touching man and the father of the villain Dio. From then on, the fate of the Joestar family and DIO became closely intertwined.
Even though the villain DIO was physically strong, he was still within the scope of normal human beings like the male protagonist JOJO (especially referring to Araki's worldview). However, after accidentally discovering the characteristics of the Stone Mask, he used the Stone Mask to transform into a powerful vampire and lived all the way to the third part of JOJO. Even a large part of the sixth part of JOJO was caused by him, spanning hundreds of years.
After taking a close look at the Stone Mask and copying its functional template, Chu Ke brought George and the infant protagonist JOJO who was still in the ruins of the carriage back to the road. He lightly pointed at the air, and a huge luxurious carriage appeared out of thin air.
Chu Ke casually put the two of them on the bed in the carriage, and snapped his fingers again. George, who was in a coma, groaned and slowly woke up.
"Uh." George pressed his head with his hand, sat up with difficulty, and looked around: "Where am I?"
"You're in my carriage, Mr. Joestar."
Looking in the direction of the voice, I saw a young man wearing a black suit. Although he had a handsome face, his facial features and hair color did not show that he was a Westerner.
As George's consciousness gradually became clearer, he gradually remembered the incident of falling off the cliff.
“Mr. Chu!” Even though he felt very uncomfortable, George still struggled to stand up and salute Chu Ke: “I will never forget your kindness!”
“Don’t get excited.” Chu Ke reached out and gently pressed George: “Health is the most important thing. I also have some medical skills. The most important thing for you now is to rest. Don’t let my kindness go to waste.”
Hearing what Chu Ke said so directly, George didn't want to insist, so he slowly sat down and leaned on the soft cushion.
He opened his mouth and was about to say something, but Zu Ke spoke as if he had understood in advance: "Your child is over there, he is very healthy and not hurt at all. His mother protects him very well."
"Great maternal love, condolences."
After hearing what his wife did in the end and looking at his sleeping son Jonathan Joestar, George couldn't help but shed tears, dripping down his beard onto his pants.
After a moment, George wiped his tears and said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Chu, I embarrassed you."
"It's human nature." Chu Ke shook his head and took the initiative to set up his own persona: "I'm a businessman from the East who does business in medicinal materials. I happened to see you in a car accident while delivering medicinal materials this time, so I helped you."
"Medicinal herbs business?" George reached out and held Chu Ke's hand tightly: "I happen to have some status in the UK."
"Well, then I'll leave it to you." It would be against his character to refuse again, and Chu Ke didn't care about the help, so he nodded and agreed.
After that, George invited Chu Ke to his home, and Chu Ke did not refuse George's invitation.
A few months later, at the Joestar household.
Chu Ke stood on the second-floor balcony, looking at the fireworks from the farmers in the distance.
George, whose injuries had healed, walked up from behind Zuko, holding the still babbling Jonathan Joestar in his arms.
"I chose this place for the manor, in large part because of the scenery." George patted the baby's back gently, and the baby stopped crying and fell asleep: "Chu, when your business is settled, you can also build a house next to it."
Ever since George fell off the cliff and met Chu Ke that day, they had a very pleasant conversation. Many of Chu Ke's insights seemed to George to be extremely wise and far-sighted, which amazed him.
Whether it was to take care of Chu Ke's "medicine business" or to learn something from daily chats with Chu Ke, George took the initiative to bring the two closer together, and Chu Ke would visit George's manor from time to time.
"That's a good suggestion. I'll buy a piece of land in half a month." Chu Ke nodded.
"Hahaha, then you can come visit more often in the future." George patted Jonathan's back while he was sleeping. "Jonathan likes you very much. Normally, he cries when someone hugs him except me. Only you can calm him down."
"It may be the smell of medicine on my body. The scent of Chinese medicine always has the effect of calming the mind." Chu Ke smiled.
George shook his head: "I prefer your temperament, Chu, you are a learned person."
"I don't know much. In the infinite universe, I am no different from a baby." Chu Ke did not admit it: "I just have more experience and a wider range of knowledge."
"That doesn't conflict with the fact that you're a wise man, does it?" George asked back.
"Hahaha, no need to compliment me, just say what you want to say."
"Hahaha, you still understand me." George was not embarrassed, but handed the sleeping Jonathan to him: "I want you to be Jonathan's godfather."
"Godfather?" Chu Ke withdrew his gaze from the scenery.
There is a saying in Sicily, Italy: The world is too dangerous, and children must have two fathers. Therefore, when a child reaches a certain age, the father will ask a local prestigious and authoritative person (friend) to act as the child's godfather. "Yes, I have a hunch. This child's life will be more colorful than I imagined." George met Chu Ke's eyes: "And the price of all this may also represent unimaginable dangers."
"Chu, you are the most mysterious person I have ever met. Maybe it's not nice to say this, after all, I haven't repaid you for your kindness to me, but..."
George quoted the proverb: "The world is too dangerous for a child to have two fathers."
"He is the last and most precious thing my wife left in this world, and he is also my most precious treasure."
Zuko looked into the man's eyes, then gently placed his hand on the sleeping Jonathan's head, "No problem."
Clear water flowed out of Chu Ke's hand in front of George's shocked eyes, slowly flowing through the body of Jonathan who was sleeping soundly, but did not wake him up.
"You can choose to cross the river and suffer many hardships for the Lord as you move forward, and finally receive the glory promised by God; you can also choose to go back at this time. All those who have not prepared for the future and have not made a final decision on this path, you can go back now."
George, who was shocked the whole time, opened his mouth slightly and listened to Chu Ke finish the prayer. He said excitedly: "Chu, I know you are different from us."
"Everyone in this world is different, and that doesn't conflict." Zuko gave a meaningful smile: "Isn't it?"
Time passed, and twelve years went by in a blink of an eye.
Jonathan, who is already thirteen years old, has undergone a huge change in his body shape. He has grown from an arm-length baby to a tall and straight teenager full of energy.
"Dad, Godfather~" Jonathan, who was playing with his dog Danny in the courtyard, raised his head and waved to George and Chu Ke who were playing chess on the second floor: "I'm going out to play~"
"Be careful on the road, JOJO." George didn't look back, but stared at the chessboard in front of him with a frown. He hesitated for a long time before he lifted a chess piece with difficulty and put it down.
Chu Ke on the other side just glanced at it and moved a chess piece: "It's already fifty moves, draw." (Note 1)
“Ha—” George sighed weakly: “There’s no need to use this method, Chu.”
Chu Ke was a little speechless. It's because you can't win and you still want to drag me to play.
George seemed to realize the problem. His face turned red and he changed the subject: "Chu, after so many years, you haven't changed at all. Are all Orientals wizards?"
"Hahaha, Oriental people really don't look old."
"I think this has gone beyond looking old." George did not continue. Twelve years have passed and Chu Ke still has a face as smooth as a young man in his 20s, while wrinkles and white hair have begun to appear at the corners of his eyes and temples.
After hesitating for a moment, George said, "Actually, I have something I want to discuss with you."
"Is it about the thief that day?"
After years of getting along, George is no longer surprised by Chu Ke's ability to read minds: "You can always guess what I want to say. It feels like I can't yawn. Chu, maybe you can try to act stupid."
"You know very well that he is not here to save you."
"This was a gentleman's promise, even if it was forced by the situation at the time." George looked at the distant scenery: "He has passed away due to illness now, but he still has a child."
"He wants to send the child to me for foster care."
"I will treat him as my own child, caring for him, providing him with food, clothing, shelter and transportation, but..." George didn't finish.
"I know what you mean. I will be his godfather too." Zu Ke raised the coffee beside him and took a sip: "I still like tea, but I have to get the other person's consent."
"I'll ask him, thank you Chu." George smiled happily.
Zuko also smiled.
Be DIO's godfather?
It seems that I have to follow the advice of a parenting expert on Zhihu and prepare a copper-headed leather belt.
In the suburbs, in an unknown cemetery.
A blond boy wearing thick clothes stood in front of a grave, with a hint of disdain and disgust on his evil face.
'He was ugly, treacherous and cunning, and caused my mother to suffer and die.'
'You are the worst father!'
'You want me to be the richest man? Okay, I'll show you!'
"I will use everything I can, including this Joestar family."
"Scum!" he cursed viciously and spat on the tombstone.
"I will become the strongest man"
"Godfather--" Jonathan walked through the gate of the manor and ran towards a figure under the shade of the trees.
Zuko turned around and put down the brand new copper-headed leather belt in his hand: "What's wrong Jonathan?"
Jonathan wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth: "Godfather, I want to become stronger!"
"You got into a fight?" Chu Ke smiled and said, "Does your father know?"
Jonathan was stunned for a moment: "No, don't tell him!"
"Don't worry, I won't tell him."
"So why do you want to become stronger?"
Jonathan clenched his fists and opened his mouth to speak: "I"
"Pah, pah, pah."
The sound of horse hooves coming from the distant gate interrupted Jonathan's words.
A carriage slowly stopped in front of the fountain of the manor. With a loud bang, the carriage door was roughly opened and a suitcase flew out.
Immediately afterwards, a blond boy with an evil face jumped out of the carriage and landed lightly on the ground.
"You are..." Jonathan thought for a moment: "Dio Brando, right?"
The blond boy looked Jonathan over and said, "So you must be Jonathan Joestar."
