Chapter 145 World: Abyssal Radiance
Amidst the chaos of flying blood and flesh, the green infant, formed from the blood of thousands of criminals, finally merged with the lifeless body of Dio.

Dio, who had been crawling on all fours like a wild beast with a blank and lifeless gaze, gradually revealed a glimmer of wisdom in his pupils.

His strong, muscular body, as perfect as a marble statue, slowly rose to his feet.

At first, his gaze seemed unfocused, but it gradually settled on the people in front of him.

Everything that is happening at this moment seems like a reenactment of a myth.

The Bible, in the Book of Genesis, recounts that Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden were tempted by the ancient serpent and ate the fruit of the tree of knowledge of good and evil.

Before they ate the fruit, Adam and Eve were innocent, immortal, and walked with God, representing the perfect prototype of humanity at the beginning of its creation.

However, after they learned the difference between good and evil, they fell and were expelled from the Garden of Eden by God.

After Adam and Eve fell, God placed cherubim and a spinning flaming sword on the east side of the Garden of Eden, blocking the way to the Tree of Life.

This path is also known as the "Path of the Fire Sword," the thorny path through which humanity returns to its divine essence after atonement.

Only through the trials of the Path of the Fire Sword can humanity cleanse itself of its innate sins, purify its wisdom, return to its former state of purity and ignorance, and return to the original Eden.

At this moment, Dio, burdened with sin, washes away his sin (wisdom) through the process of dying, transforming into an ignorant and pure beast of ignorance.

But that ignorant beast swallowed the fruits of wisdom and life that grew from the souls of sinners.

Life and wisdom converge, thus...

A god will descend upon the world!

"Hahahahahaha!!!!!!"

Dior, who just a moment ago resembled a statue of David from the Renaissance and possessed a divine aura, immediately revealed his true nature and burst into maniacal laughter.

He raised his hands high, as if embracing the whole world, his fists clenched as if holding the world in his palms.

"Damn it!"

The crowd's faces darkened, and their stand-ins began to appear, ready to launch an attack or defend at any moment.

"Platinum Star, stop time!"

With a roar, Jotaro Kujo, whose age had increased with the passage of time and whose Stand had been restored, activated his ability.

As everything turned into an inexplicable gray-white, even Dio, who was laughing maniacally, was frozen in that still spacetime.

Jotaro Kujo was not surprised by this. After being stripped of his age by that strange Stand in the sky, Jotaro, who hid in the shadows, was only stripped of less than five years of his age, returning to elementary school.

His Stand, "Star Platinum," only awakened a few weeks ago. Having returned to the age of elementary school, he naturally lost his Stand.

As for Dio, being illuminated by that shadow, he regressed from his corpse state to nearly a hundred years of age, returning to the time when he had just become a vampire.

As time passed, Jotaro's Stand recovered along with the nearly five years he had been deprived of, while Dio, who had been deprived of nearly a hundred years of life, also recovered some of his age over time, but he was still far from reaching the point where he could awaken his Stand "The World".

He took a deep breath, and the power of the ripples surged forth, causing the power of the Platinum Star to rise in tandem.

"Dior!"

Amidst that roar, the long-accumulated and suppressed rage propelled the Stand to raise its fists and strike forward.

The dark blue fists pounded wildly, transforming into a destructive storm within the frozen space, unleashing their fury upon the resurrected enemy.

Unsurprisingly, it went incredibly smoothly.

Dio's repulsive face was smashed to pieces by Star Platinum's iron fist, and blood, flesh, and bone fragments flew out in the frozen space.

Before it could be re-frozen by the power of time-stopping, it had already been burned to ashes by the sun-like ripples.

Jotaro awakened the ability to stop time during the fierce battle, and its limit is about fifteen seconds.

But less than a second later, Dio's entire body had already turned into dust that dispersed with the wind.

In a flash, like a scene jumping in a movie, Joseph, who was about to attack, suddenly realized that Dio, who had been laughing maniacally just moments before, had turned into a wisp of smoke in the air.

"This...time has stopped?"

He couldn't help but look at Jotaro, "You took care of Dio?"

"Hmm." Jotaro nodded, but his brow remained furrowed.

It went too smoothly, almost unbelievably so.

Dio caused so much trouble and killed so many people before finally creating a sinister green baby that merged with him, and then he was killed by Dio with a single punch.

……

"Hahahahahaha!!!!!!"

Dior laughed maniacally.

In a flash, as if a scene from a movie had jumped around, Joseph suddenly realized that Dio, who had been laughing maniacally just moments before, had turned into a wisp of smoke in the air.

"This……"

He couldn't help but look at Jotaro, "You took care of Dio?"

"Hmm." Jotaro nodded, but his brows didn't relax; he seemed far too relaxed.

……

"Hahahahahaha!!!!!!"

Dio laughed maniacally.

Just as Jotaro was about to activate Star Platinum's time stop to try and kill that bastard Dio, he was suddenly overwhelmed by a feeling of exhaustion.

"Is this fatigue a side effect of the ability to rewind time?" Just as he was ignoring the fatigue and preparing to activate his ability, Fang Zheng suddenly interrupted him, saying, "Jotaro, stop now. You've already stopped time three times and killed Dio three times already."

"What?" Jotaro clenched his fist, and in a daze, he felt a sense of déjà vu from Star Platinum, a feeling as if he had struck something.

Upon hearing Fang Zheng's words, Joseph immediately had a bad feeling and hurriedly asked, "Fang Zheng, what does this mean?"

"Is it possible..."

Amid Dior's maniacal laughter, Fang Zheng glanced at the sun in the sky, calmly amplified his voice, and drowned out the disturbing laughter.

He explained, "Dio seems to have awakened a new ability. When Jotaro attacked him, the damage disappeared, and your memories were also overwritten."

……

"Hahaha..." After laughing loudly for a while, Dio calmed down, seemingly having finally vented his ecstasy.

With a faint smile on his lips, he ignored the crowd in front of him and stepped out of the shadows of the trees into the sunlight.

With eyes closed, I basked in the warmth of the blazing sun. "I haven't sunbathed in a century, it feels so good..."

"What is this, Dio?" Everyone clearly saw that Dio's body was burning under the sunlight. His vampire constitution turned the sunlight into a deadly poison that was destroying everything he had.

But the next moment, as if switching between two different films, Dio, whose body had been burned to the point of exposing his bones and internal organs, completely broke away from the recovery process and returned to his previous state out of thin air.

He clenched his fist, feeling that he was still in the process of development and had not yet reached his full potential.

Looking arrogantly at the crowd before him, who seemed to be facing a formidable enemy, and the dull, comical cube-shaped figure, Dio said calmly, "How dare your lowly and laughable Stand powers infringe upon the divine realm I, Dio, held before I ascended to Heaven!"

Having said that, Dio glanced at the distant sky, "Oh, the sun has already set, the time reversal is over, the timing is just right..."

He wore a calm smile as he touched his neck, where blood was suddenly gushing out, and his body below his head, which had transformed into a more robust form.

On his shoulder, a star-shaped mark appeared, a birthmark passed down through generations of the Joseph family. This body belonged to Jonathan.

Then, boom!

The head, which carried a calm smile, exploded completely, as if it had been smashed apart by an invisible fist.

Not long ago, Dio had two Stand users under his command, who possessed the Stands "Sun" and "Seto".

They were manipulated by the arrangements Dior had made in advance.

Its power is essentially light and heat, possessing an immense Stand energy, almost equivalent to a small sun. This is the long-range, automatic Stand "Sun". Its immense Stand energy is enhanced by the Stand "Seto", which is essentially shadow and can use shadow to absorb the age of those who come into contact with it, regressing them to the embryonic stage or even returning them from existence to nothingness.

The combination of the two creates a vast field of age deprivation.

This fleeting realm also caused Dio's defeated corpse to rewind time, returning to the moment when he had just become a vampire.

The Time Reversal Domain of the God of Set can strip away the time of those shrouded in its power.

This is not a change in lifespan, nor a change in life form, but rather a kind of conceptual time-flow shearing.

Cut out all the changes a person has experienced over the years, the changes that have brought about on themselves, and these changes that are imprinted on the timeline.

Just like an elderly person who is physically disabled, plagued by illnesses, and on the verge of death can be reverted to a vibrant teenager.

All the marks that time has left on him will be temporarily cut off.

Unless it is completely cut off and deleted, that is, its age is reversed so that it returns from existence to non-existence.

Otherwise, the cut time will spontaneously return to its original point once the spirit of the Stand "Seto" can no longer hold on.

The boy who was rejuvenated and became full of energy will, no matter how much he struggles, eventually become an old man with many illnesses and physical disabilities again after the Stand ability is removed and time returns.

Dio was the same. As the remaining power of the god Set dissipated, no matter how much he struggled, he should not have been able to escape the return of the time flow and fall into the reality of being killed by Star Platinum.

However, under the serious gazes of everyone, Dio, who had died in the time reversal, returned to his previous state as if in a frame skipping.

"Hmm! Hmm!" Nodding in satisfaction, Dio activated the Stand, which was still in the process of being conceived, and it emerged from behind him like the egg of a new god.

A strange light, as pure as white flames and as flash as lightning, outlined the black humanoid figure, which was formed from pure blackness and was darker than the deepest abyss.

"look!"

"Joseph, Jotaro, Kakyoin, Avdol, Polnareff, and that ridiculous cube god!"

"Behold! Witness! Before the dawn of my ascension to heaven, my invincible substitute, though not yet fully formed, will be here!"

"My Stand - World Abyssal Radiance!"

The light in the abyss of sin symbolizes the final critical point on the path to divinity.

With the ability to reverse time, Dio's original Stand, 'The World,' disappeared, and his spiritual power returned to the state it was before his Stand was awakened.

When it merged with the Green Baby, the Stand 'World', which should have returned to its original state in the time reversal, merged with the Green Baby's power and was reborn, giving birth to a completely new and terrifying power!
This ability, though still immature, is already nearly invincible!

It is more powerful and more extreme than the Green Baby's power, which is like Zeno's tortoise paradox.

No matter what causes and effects occur, they do not affect me!

This entirely new ability is a distortion of the law of causality!
All attacks and all harm are illusory to Dio at this moment; only his unharmed existence is the only reality.

Even if the universe explodes, even if time reverses, even if someone travels back in time to kill him in his childhood...

Everything, everything, everything that threatens Dio's existence will be copied!
At this moment, he cannot release this ability outwards, so he does not have the ability to launch an attack.

Just like a growing embryo, an egg about to hatch a new god!

When the light fills the darkness, Dio's still immature Stand will truly complete its final evolution!

It will truly transform into—"World Beyond Heaven!"

We will truly possess the terrifying power to rewrite reality at will, to arbitrarily subvert the law of cause and effect, or rather, to make our wishes come true!
