Chapter 141 Higher Priorities
The cube-shaped figure tilted its head, carefully examining the child in front of it dressed as Jotaro Kujo.

The loose-fitting clothes and the similar face immediately convinced him that this was Jotaro Kujo.

"What are you doing here?" the blocky man asked calmly.

As soon as he finished speaking, a bottle of healing potion was smashed down on the child in front of him.

"What..." Jotaro Kujo was about to ask Fang Zheng for help in rescuing his grandfather and companions when he discovered that the cube-shaped humanoid in front of him had vanished without a trace.

The red spiral of the healing potion filled the air, instantly erasing all the fatigue from his body, but it couldn't restore his tender body to its original state.

Jotaro clenched his still-childish hand, pulled off the hat covering his eyes, and asked in bewilderment, "Even Fang Zheng's healing potion can't cure me?"

"And why did he come here?"

In just a few days, Jotaro and Joseph and the others, through their interactions, figured out the behavioral logic of this cube-shaped humanoid who called himself 'Cube'.

They noticed that this cube-shaped humanoid was similar to a Stand that had lost its original form, but it did not possess intelligence like some special Stands. Instead, it followed a behavior pattern similar to that of a remote-controlled automated Stand.

However, its behavior pattern is more complex, more like an NPC in a game that acts after receiving orders.

Once it receives the corresponding instruction, it will act automatically according to its built-in behavioral logic.

This is why they don't expect Fangzheng to help fight Dio.

The numerous newspapers that Dio distributed throughout Cairo contained a wealth of information: warlords around the world, criminal organizations of all sizes, and all sorts of seemingly unrelated crimes...

This content is like a task assigned to Founder.

The order in which tasks are performed is not important; what matters is their priority.

During their conversation with Fang Zheng, Jotaro and his companions also noticed that, according to a certain rule governing the cube dolls, their existence as companions who seemed to be with and helped by him was essentially no different from that of passersby.

Fang Zheng's kindness is the same towards everyone, as long as they are not considered "evil people" by him.

Dio, whom the group of five considered utterly evil and to whom they harbored a deep-seated hatred, was, in Fang Zheng's judgment, no different in essence from a gang leader who robbed, murdered, and trafficked people on the highway.

At least, in the newspapers that Dior ordered to be posted, those criminal organizations in the criminal chain, the warlords who started the war, the compradors, the corrupt officials, etc., these scumbags who, because of their own greed and their own interests, caused thousands, tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands or millions of families to be broken up and displaced.

In Fang Zheng's eyes, eliminating him was a much higher priority than eliminating Dio, a mere vampire who had killed less than a thousand or two people.

A day earlier, before officially entering Cairo, Joseph had activated his power with Hermit Purple.

On the massive globe constructed of dust, countless red dots are scattered throughout, each dot extending outwards with various radiating lines, connecting more dots, and finally forming a vast network.

Above the globe, two constantly fluctuating numbers are marked: 300,000 and 15 million.

These two figures represent that, according to the information provided by Dior, Fangzheng would need approximately ten days to continuously clean up nearly 30 criminal organizations and warlords across the globe, whom he deemed "villains."

In addition to the new information it comes into contact with during its continuous operations, the intelligence provided by Hermit Purple is that Fang Zheng will continue to eliminate the corresponding groups, and will not stop until about 1500 million people are wiped out, accounting for 0.4% of the current global population.

Even with the unconditional coordinate movement capability demonstrated by Fangzheng, this is by no means something that can be accomplished in a short time.

In other words, according to the Hermit Purple's assessment of the intelligence, Fang Zheng will continue to act as he said (I can continue forever).

It becomes an unusual phenomenon that repeatedly appears on Earth, unconditionally eliminating all "evil people," unconditionally treating all the injured, feeding the hungry, and providing water to the drought-stricken... a "god who hates evil and kills and saves people 24 hours a day!"

Jotaro Kujo frowned deeply: "The information about Hermit Purple should be correct."

"That also means that Fang Zheng's presence here now is only due to some more influential event, one that he considers more important, pointing to Cairo, Egypt..."

……

At a rate of 120 operations per second, Fang Zheng's figure began to flash throughout Cairo after the anomaly was detected.

In just a second, the fire that had ignited in Cairo during the chaos was completely extinguished.

In just about three seconds, Fang Zheng smashed a passage through the rubble from the inside out for those who were trapped under the collapsed houses, and those who were seriously injured but still had a breath left were all fully recovered.

Cairo, as the capital and most prosperous city of Egypt, covers a vast area.

In the 80s, the permanent population exceeded 600 million.

The battle lasted only a dozen minutes of chaos from start to finish, with only tens of thousands of people directly affected and fewer than three thousand injured or killed in the chaos.

However, Fang Zheng immediately noticed that the streets and open spaces were filled with clothes.

Hidden in the shadows of the houses surrounding the clothes were some young "children" dressed in oversized clothes, trembling with fear and screaming as they looked at the empty clothes.

Among some of the clothes, there were several small, slowly wriggling, bloody, and mangled embryos.

From the lingering dust in the area where the clothes were, and the scratches and bloodstains hidden in the chaotic distribution, Fang Zheng immediately deduced that just moments ago, some "people" or beasts had spent some time forcibly driving out those hiding in the buildings and apartments.

After failing to save the 'embryos' by immediately flashing down, Fang Zheng looked up at the huge fireball in the sky.

Looking at the huge fireball in the sky, hundreds of meters in diameter, and the flat human tissue that cast a huge shadow under the fireball's illumination.

"The flattened human figure is located 500 meters above the ground, the fireball is located 2.8 kilometers above the ground, and the shadow covers an area of ​​approximately 2.8 hectares..."

Fang Zheng only needed to glance at it to understand the specific effects of this strange phenomenon and all the detailed data.

Beneath the sun, which appears to be a Stand, the enormous shadow cast seems to possess some kind of power, suggesting it is also a Stand.

The interplay of light and shadow, the combined power of the two Stands, amplifies the power of a certain Stand to its extreme.

Within the vast area covered by this shadow, all the people, cats, and dogs touched by the shadow underwent some kind of mutation: their age kept regressing until they regressed to the level of an embryo, and then continued to regress until they disappeared.

Based on the marks on the clothing, it is estimated that approximately eight thousand people disappeared. Only those who hid inside buildings and were not directly exposed to shadows survived.

A minute later, Fang Zheng's figure flashed again, arriving beside Jotaro Kujo, who was carrying nearly 300 pounds of concrete debris in his child form, trying to get his grandfather out of the rubble as quickly as possible.

"How did your battle with Dio go?" Fang Zheng asked calmly.

Silently crawling out of the ruins, Joseph looked at the cube-shaped humanoid figure in front of him, at the ruins scattered everywhere, and at his grandson who had turned into a child. He opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say.

A frustrating battle, with heavy casualties...

Despite regaining her youth and possessing unprecedentedly powerful Ripple abilities, she was almost useless in battle.

Meanwhile, his own grandson and his companions fought with everything they had to battle their family's archenemy, to fight Dio to the death...

Looking at the devastated ruins, it felt as if time had turned back to the past, back to the time when he had fought with all his might to defeat the Pillar Man and banish the Ultimate Lifeform in a desperate gamble.

The enemy has been defeated, but the fallen comrades and innocent people who perished will never return.

He sighed deeply, "Fang Zheng, Dio has already been killed by us..."

"Is that so?" Fang Zheng's voice remained calm.

However, Joseph's expression immediately turned serious as soon as he finished speaking. "But the battle is not over yet!"

A strong sense of crisis still lingered in my heart.

The hermit's purple spread from her fingertips, enveloping the dust and ashes on the ground, outlining a twisted plant with numerous human faces appearing on its surface. At the top of that plant, a baby curled up inside a fruit.

No, that was not a human baby! The baby's body, which should have represented purity, had all sorts of inhuman abnormalities.

Its skin was like green leather, covered with what looked like scales, had strange patterns on its face, and had long, pointed ears. It exuded an ominous aura.

Suddenly, it opened its eyes, which were blood-red!
boom!
The smoke and dust that outlined its shape suddenly burst out, and Joseph frowned.

"He interfered with Hermit Purple?"

He looked at his grandson and Fang Zheng in front of him and said urgently, "Fang Zheng, our battle with Dio is not over yet! This could be his backup plan, or some crisis is brewing again under his command!"

"Please help us! Quickly use your all-powerful healing potion to cure Jotaro!" Joseph pleaded loudly.

“Grandpa…” Jotaro tugged at his sleeve and shook his head.

"What?" Joseph asked, puzzled.

"Jotaro, are you saying that even Fangzheng's healing potion can't work for you right now?"

Joseph immediately asked again urgently, "Fangzheng, is there any other way to treat Jotaro?"

After spending a few days with Fang Zheng, Joseph had roughly figured out Fang Zheng's behavior patterns.

Fangzheng possesses too many abilities, yet he rarely offers help proactively; one must make a sufficiently precise request to obtain his assistance.

So Fang Zheng immediately complied with his request, giving the child in front of him a bucket of milk to try drinking.

After the clicking sound effect, Jotaro remained unchanged.

This means that the power acting on him, causing him to rapidly age back to that of a child, is not a harm, nor is it some strange or unusual effect, but something far more peculiar.

Fang Zheng suddenly spoke up, saying, "Your time has been reversed. The sun in the sky and the shadows on the ground are all some kind of Stand ability."

"Jotaro, if you hadn't dodged quickly enough, you would have already turned into a fetus, a fertilized egg, and disappeared, just like the original owners of those clothes on the street."
