As the supreme god, I choose to watch movies in the multiverse.

So what if he was a genius? Not to mention that he never managed to kill Muzan Kibutsuji before he died, even if he had killed Muzan Kibutsuji in the end, what difference would it have made?

People like Gyutaro and Daki will continue to exist in the world; they will never disappear...

Light screen image——

The enemy has retreated; Joseph should go back now.

First, tell the three ninjas about the situation here and let them handle the aftermath. Then, go find that guy named Jotaro Kujo.

This is Joseph's current plan. His intuition tells him that the guy named Jotaro Kujo is no ordinary person. He might know the reason for his time travel and the origin of Hermit Purple.

"Da da da--"

Strange noises came from the ceiling, causing Joseph to involuntarily turn his gaze to the ceiling.

"boom!!"

The next moment, a loud bang came, and the ceiling was suddenly vandalized, with wood chips and splinters falling onto the tatami mats like raindrops.

"N-Nani!!" Joseph exclaimed in surprise at the sudden turn of events, and the audience outside the screen widened their eyes in astonishment.

As the unique and catchy background music began to play, a figure descended from the sky and landed in front of Joseph.

Auntie suppressed the commotion, and the audience with the light screen image that had a deep impression of this background music quickly guessed who the newcomer was - Pillar Man!

This is the background music exclusively for the Pillar Men. It is the music that accompanies Kars and the others when they break free from their restraints on the stone pillars.

As the dust settled, the wrecked room was revealed before Joseph, along with the brown-skinned, muscular man known as the Pillar Man of Essidy!

"I sensed the presence of Ripple. Was there a battle taking place here just now?"

Touching the back of his shoulder with one hand, Aisidi said expressionlessly.

Then, the focus shifted to Upper Moon Six, who was about to die under the influence of Ripple power.

Taking two steps to stand in front of Gyutaro and Daki, Aishidashi crouched down and quietly watched their bodies dissipate.

Immediately afterwards, he plunged a finger from each hand into Daki and Gyutaro's bodies, and the next moment, their remaining flesh visibly withered away, like two mutilated human skins lying on the ground.

"!!!" Joseph was completely dumbfounded and shocked. "Did that man absorb Gyutaro and Daki?"

With this thought in mind, Joseph watched Essidy warily, the Hermit's Purple wrapped around his wrist.

The other party knows about Ripple, and judging from their appearance, they came here because they sensed the power of Ripple, so they obviously came here for him.

"Oh? You are that powerful Ripple warrior? I didn't expect you to be so young. Two thousand years ago, those with this level of Ripple power were all old men who could only survive by using Ripple to slow down their aging."

After first expressing his approval to Joseph in front of him, Essidy's tone instantly turned cold.

"Dangerous, far too dangerous! Keeping a Ripple warrior like you alive will inevitably affect Kars' plans. So, now that Ko no Eshidisi has discovered you, we absolutely cannot let you leave here alive!"

Without any pre-battle taunts or much prior knowledge, and despite never having met Joseph before, Essidy resolutely declared war on him.

The reason is simple: Joseph has a strong Ripple that would hinder Kars, and this alone is enough for Essidy to kill him.

What...what is he saying? Who is Kars, and what is his plan? The Ripple clan from two thousand years ago? Ripple exists in this world too?

Joseph was completely bewildered, not understanding what Easidisi was talking about, but one thing he was clear about was that Easidisi in front of him was definitely not human, and was a creature that stood on the opposite side of humanity!

"Hey, you arrogant ugly freak, your name is Ashidissi, right? No matter what species you are, you're the first person to declare war on me, Joseph Joestar, like this!"

Joseph adopted a defensive stance, intending to probe Essidy's identity, but Essidy seemed to have no intention of saying anything more to Joseph.

"Joseph Joestar? JOJO, right? Now that we know each other's names, let's start the battle! We absolutely cannot let a dangerous guy like you get close to Lord Kars!"

Aisidi clenched her fist and rushed towards Joseph with lightning speed, slamming it down hard.

Upon seeing this, Joseph raised his arms, and the Hermit Purple wrapped around his wrists shot towards Essidy like Spider-Man's webs.

"Hermit Purple, and the power of Ripple! Watch closely, this move is called: Hermit Purple - Ripple Dash!!"

As soon as he finished speaking, golden ripples and arcs of electricity instantly appeared on the thorns of the Hermit's Purple, flying towards Aisidisi's fist.

"Ok?"

Aisidi's pupils contracted, and before touching the Hermit's Purple, he instantly withdrew his fist, then did two backflips to land again.

"So that's how it is. That purple thorn can transmit the power of the ripples with 100% accuracy?"

That's dangerous. If he were to get entangled by that purple thorn carrying the power of ripples, even he, Aisidisi, would be helpless and waiting to die.

Such a powerful Ripple warrior exists in this world! We must kill him at all costs, and absolutely cannot let him appear before Kars!

Even if it meant sacrificing himself here, he wanted to drag Joseph down with him to the afterlife—that was Essidy's resolve.

Chapter 141 Have you read Sun Tzu's Art of War?

Goodness, even villains have this kind of awareness?

Aishidisi's series of actions left the audience outside the light screen overwhelmed.

He and Joseph really did start fighting without a word. The two didn't even know each other, but Essidy thought Joseph was a threat, so she just attacked him.

This left the viewers outside the light screen somewhat puzzled.

It seems the Pillar Man has a grudge against the Ripple Warriors. Not only did he wipe out the Ripple race two thousand years ago, but now that he sees Joseph using Ripple, he's taken action.

Light screen image bullet comments——

Kaz: "Aishidisi, you're facing such a terrifying enemy again because of me!"

Conan: "Even if it means sacrificing my life, I'll drag Joseph down with me. Is that a villain's line?"

Yukino Yukinoshita: "Oh no, oh no, it seems like even villains are more charming than Muzan."

Kurumi Tokisaki: "Muzan Kibutsuji, what kind of incorrigible trash is he? His resolve isn't even as good as Kars's lackeys..."

Light screen image——

Because of the earlier commotion, the streets of Youguo were already deserted, as most of the people had fled.

On the deserted streets, Japanese-style buildings lined both sides, adorned with red lanterns that illuminated the ground. The moon had just reached its zenith, and the sun was still a long way from rising.

Joseph and Essidy stood facing each other on one side of the narrow street, like a duel between cowboys in a Western movie.

The wind and sand blew, stirring up dust from the ground, creating a scene that was both calm and tense.

"You really know how to pick a place, JOJO. You're not the first Ripple Warrior to fight me one-on-one, but you're the most special Ripple Warrior I've ever met."

With his eyes fixed on the Hermit's Purple in Joseph's hand, Essidy's gaze was deep and wary.

That thing clearly doesn't belong to the category of life; it's both illusory and real, and coupled with its characteristic of transmitting ripples 100%, it's enough to arouse Aisidi's utmost vigilance.

"Your eyes have changed. They're not the same as before. What's wrong? Are you scared?"

Unlike Essidy, Joseph was relaxed and carefree, not at all like a warrior engaged in a duel, but more like a street urchin.

However, despite appearing relaxed, Joseph remained wary of Essidy, who was, to date, the only enemy who could see the Hermit's Purple on his wrist.

This alone was enough to make Joseph extremely wary.

More importantly, it was clear from the brief exchange that the man before him was no ordinary person. Without the enhancement of the Hermit's Purple, even if Joseph had schemed and plotted, he would not have been a match for the man before him.

Moreover, behind Essidy stood a mysterious man named Katz. Joseph's intuition told him that Katz would become the most terrifying and powerful opponent he had ever encountered in his life.

"Hmph, this is getting interesting." Aisidisi curled the corners of her lips, her fighting spirit surging.

"This isn't the first time I've fought a Ripple Warrior, but... anyone who tries to act mysterious in front of me is already dead."

"You won't be an exception, JOJO!"

Aisidi said calmly, and then immediately took action.

"Bang!" He swung a palm directly at Joseph, and if Joseph were hit by this palm, his body would be pierced through.

But Joseph didn't dodge; instead, he met the palm head-on.

"Ripple!!!" Joseph shouted, and golden arcs of electricity crackled from the index and middle fingers of his right hand, stabbing towards Aishidisi's palm like a divine finger.

The power of the sun directly caused the Pillar Man's body, which was dozens or even more times harder and more flexible than the Upper Moon, to crack apart.

"Pfft!" A sound of something being pierced came, but it wasn't Joseph's body; it was Essidy's hand that had been pierced, and blood was slowly dripping down his palm.

"What?!" Esidisi's eyes widened. He knew Joseph's Ripple was powerful, but he didn't expect it to be so powerful that it completely ignored his defenses as a Pillar Man.

Joseph, on the other hand, breathed a sigh of relief, his blood boiling with excitement.

But... it was this moment of relief that gave Ashidiss the opportunity!

The shock quickly faded from her face, replaced by indifference and calm. Grabbing Joseph's fingers with one hand, Essidy twisted her wrist 360 degrees in an instant.

"Hmph, that's the breathing technique of Ripple. One exhale is enough to give me an opportunity, JOJO!"

"We'd been killing Ripple warriors of this strength for two thousand years!!!"

Ripple energy – similar to the breathing techniques in the Demon Slayer world, it relies on the energy generated by breathing through the lungs, therefore... during battle, the rhythm of breathing must never be disrupted.

Otherwise, it is very easy for the ripples to be unable to be maintained, resulting in defeat!

Joseph was like that. Even though Hermit Purple amplified Ripple to a terrifying degree, Joseph himself did not have experience using Ripple in combat for a long time, nor did he develop the habit of using Ripple to breathe!

This created a fatal weakness in him, and an ordinary Ripple warrior would have been defeated at this moment.

However... Joseph possesses Hermit Purple and exceptional on-the-spot reaction abilities, making him far beyond the scope of an ordinary Ripple warrior.

"Hermit's Purple - Ripple Dash!!" Hermit's Purple, wrapped around the other wrist, shot straight toward Aisidisi's neck like an arrow released from a bow.

The power of the ripples contained within was enough to separate Essidi's body from its head.

"Damn it." Aisidisi quickly withdrew her hand and distanced herself, clicking her tongue in disapproval.

If this had continued, Joseph would have absolutely lost his entire right hand, but he would also have lost his life because of Hermit Purple.

"So...so close!" Joseph's face turned pale, he was panting heavily, and a few drops of cold sweat dripped down his face.

He almost lost his entire hand. Although he was not afraid of death or losing his hands or feet, Joseph would be too ashamed to imagine if he had the upper hand but still let the enemy succeed.

"Hmph, that purple thing is really annoying. Looks like we didn't gain any advantage in the first round, JOJO."

Aisidi said expressionlessly, "If it weren't for that Hermit Purple, I could have killed Joseph in the first round. Unfortunately, there are no 'ifs' in this world."

However, as Essidy was pondering this, his body suddenly convulsed as if he had been electrocuted.
