Crossover Anime: I Became Invincible Starting as an Ajin

Chapter 120 What's going on? Do you have paranoia?

When Jotaro regained consciousness, he found himself lying on his grandfather's sofa, his leg wound professionally re-bandaged.

Joseph, Avdol, and the mysterious Wang Bai were all in the room. In a corner, the unconscious Kakyoin was tightly bound.

"Awake?" Joseph's expression was grave. "It was Wang Bai's—shadow—who brought you back."

Jotaro looked at Wang Bai, who simply nodded calmly at him.

Joseph walked over to Kakyoin, brushed aside the bangs on his forehead, and revealed a strange, wriggling object that looked like a fleshy bud.

Joseph pointed at the strange object and said in a low voice, "See that? This hair-thin bud has already pierced deep into his brain."

This is what twisted his will and forced him to swear allegiance to Dio.

Avdol nodded solemnly in agreement: "Dio possesses a bewitching charm. Not long ago, he tried to approach me and bewitch me in a similar way. Fortunately, I realized something was wrong in time and managed to break free from his mental control with all my might."

He still feels lingering fear when he recalls that experience.

Jotaro pulled down the brim of his hat, looking at Kakyoin, who was still unconscious with a furrowed brow, with a complex expression.

He was initially furious at the guy who attacked him, but after learning that the other person was also a victim of manipulation, that fury turned into a deeper loathing for Dio.

Wang Bai, meanwhile, quietly observed the wriggling buds, lost in thought.

This technology is simply not something JoJo could use. Although it can be forcibly explained by vampires, vampires did not possess this kind of means of controlling people in the previous steps.

Simply stimulating the nerves in the brain with granulation tissue produces a brainwashing-like effect.

This technology sounds really advanced.

With such advanced technology, Dior could have completely controlled the people of an entire city or even the world, but this technology only appeared at the very beginning.

Does this mean that this technology has some special limitations?

The atmosphere in the room became heavy because of the wriggling "fleshy bud" on Kakyoin's forehead.

"Let me do it!"

Wang Bai volunteered for the task. In the Fate world, there are many books by mages that focus on the human body, and the content is quite detailed and comprehensive.

Wang Bai had seen no fewer than ten kinds of organisms that parasitize the brain in those books.

This world is clearly different from the original story.

According to the footage transmitted by the Shadow Legion, Jojo, who was originally able to fight Kakyoin on his own, was knocked unconscious by the Emerald Spark!

So, if the opponent uses the Platinum Star to remove the flesh buds according to the original route, is it also possible to fail?

To be on the safe side, Wang Bai took on the job directly.

The runes on his hand gradually flickered, and the active state of the fleshy bud gradually slowed down until it stopped, eventually withdrawing from his head and becoming a fleshy ball.

"That's amazing! How did you do that?!"

Joestar and Avdol were amazed; they had seen firsthand how difficult it was to remove this thing, and how the host would die if the removal process stimulated the granulation tissue.

"A detailed explanation would be complicated, but you can think of it as the power of magic!"

Wang Bai explained casually.

Joestar opened his mouth, about to retort, but suddenly remembered the runes that had been flashing in the other's hand.

Could it be that there really are amazing magic and magic in this world?

Thinking back to the battles with vampires in the past, and now that I have a Stand, it doesn't seem so strange that magic and magic have appeared.

There are too many unknowns hidden beneath the surface of this world.

Joestar sighed inwardly, feeling a sense of loss as well. If he were younger, he probably would have faced these challenges with great fanfare.

But now my body doesn't have the same vigorous energy as before. The fact that I can still have the strength and freedom of movement of a young person at this age is all thanks to the Ripple Qi Gong.

After the granulation tissue left Kakyoin's forehead, it quickly withered and turned to ashes.

Kakyoin gasped sharply and opened his eyes.

The confusion and emptiness in his eyes disappeared, replaced by a clear-headedness and deep weariness, as if he had survived a catastrophe.

He looked around at the surroundings and the people around him, especially at the spot on his forehead where a slight pain still lingered, and instantly understood everything.

"Thank you," he said to Jotaro in a hoarse voice, his eyes filled with gratitude and guilt.

However, the crisis is not over.

The next morning, Aboudal's terrified cry shattered the silence: "Mrs. Holly!"

Everyone rushed into the kitchen and found Holly Joestar lying unconscious on the floor. On her back, a beautiful, illusory double, like a tangled web of thorns and rose vines, appeared!

But the substitute was extremely unstable, sometimes solid and sometimes dissipated, as if it were drawing away her life force.

"Oh no!" Avdol's face turned deathly pale. "Madame Holly's mental power can't control this Stand that awakened due to Dio's curse! The Stand is turning against its user! At this rate—she only has fifty days left to live!"

The only way out is clear and cruel: Dio must be killed within fifty days! Only when the source of the curse is gone can Holly be saved.

My mind is made up!

Jotaro picked up the photograph of Dior taken by Joseph with the Hermit's Purple again, and Star Platinum's vision, which surpassed that of a microscope, was brought to its fullest extent, not missing a single detail.

"Look here." Jotaro pointed to a blurry fly in the background of the photo. "This species of fly is only found in Aswan, Egypt."

"That's right." Kakyoin, who had just recovered, confirmed their deduction. "Dio's base is in Egypt."

He looked at the unconscious Mrs. Holly, his eyes filled with both sympathy and determination.

"I cannot stand by and watch such a gentle woman die."

Please allow me to join you on your journey to Egypt. This is not only to repay your kindness in saving my life, but also to atone for the mistakes I made while under your control.

His addition was approved. In order to better coordinate the operation, Avdol took out a tarot deck and, after some intuition, gave Jotaro's Stand the name of the star, which symbolizes "powerful spiritual strength and protection".

"From this day forward, your Stand will be named—StarPlatinum!"

Driven by an urgent desire to save their loved ones and a determination to vanquish evil, the group boarded a plane bound for Egypt.

Inside the cabin, Wang Bai leaned against the window, seemingly resting with his eyes closed. In reality, a trace of the Shadow Legion's power had quietly merged into the shadows of the plane, acting like the most vigilant sentinel, monitoring any unusual activity around him.

Sitting on the plane, Wang Bai felt a little uneasy.

The Stand users who appeared in the original story have already been eliminated at the residential area, so the plane should be fine, right?

Every time a vehicle crashes, it's because they encountered an enemy. No matter who the enemy is, as long as they're not stupid, they'll suppress Jojo and the others' mobility to the minimum, which is why they're known as the Jojo vehicle killer.

But now that the danger has been eliminated, it's unlikely that such a bizarre thing could happen again.

One hour later.

Apologetically, Joestar led everyone from the crashed plane to a sea vessel to reach their target location.

Wang Bai was speechless. There hadn't been any Stand users on the previous plane, but the pilot still fainted due to a heart problem.

Every pilot is handpicked for physical fitness and receives the best medical care, yet he collapsed due to a heart problem?!

The most outrageous thing is that both the captain and the co-pilot fell into a coma due to heart problems.

Wang Bai stared intently at Joestar, thinking that the real Stand he was using was probably Vehicle Killer!

Joestar felt embarrassed being stared at. The plane crash was caused by this reason, and if the others hadn't been Stand users, they would have certainly died. It seems there are some problems within the conglomerate, and they need to be dealt with properly when they get back.

"I'm so sorry, I've prepared a very lavish banquet on this ship as an apology to everyone."

Wang Bai shook his head, not blaming Joestar, but instead asking, "Why not charter the entire cruise ship instead of letting these passengers board? What if there are assassins among them?"

Joestar shook his head: "That would be too conspicuous. Dio and the others would definitely notice, and then they would be prepared, making things even more difficult for us."

"Only by hiding our tracks and keeping the enemy busy can we increase our chances of survival."

""

Wang Bai nodded: "I see."

Don't worry!

Joestar patted the young man on the shoulder; the young man's actions over the past few days had proven that he was trustworthy.

Although we haven't been able to find out any information about the other party, how many capable people don't have secrets?

You should know that in this world, conglomerates have the most secrets.

"I've already investigated these people, and there's absolutely nothing wrong with them!"

Wang Bai paused in his steps and looked at Joestar with a strange expression.

With his vehicle-killing abilities and the flag Joestar mentioned, it would be strange if this ship at sea didn't get into trouble.

Wang Bai sighed.

Since we're here, let's make the best of it.

However, just as this thought crossed their minds, they saw a tall, stylishly dressed man with unusual silver hair appear uninvited on the deck, standing in front of them with a slightly flamboyant smile.

"Bonjour! Fellow travelers, would you mind having dinner with a lone French tourist?"

""

He introduced himself as Jane Pierre Polunarev, but his sharp eyes swept over Joestar and his group.

Wang Bai had a deep impression of Polnareff, who could be considered a member of the main group later on. Even when he was in a wheelchair and at the end of his life, he still upheld the spirit of chivalry.

It can be said that he was someone Wang Bai greatly respected in the original work.

That's why Wang Bai knows him quite well; Polnareff is probably still under control right now.

Without hesitation, Wang Bai summoned the Shadow Legion, and several black shadows rushed directly towards Polnareff.

A blue humanoid dummy dressed in Western armor and wielding a slender sword—Silver Chariot

Chariot suddenly appeared, his rapier piercing the shadowy legion like a venomous snake.

Polnareff was very puzzled; he thought he could launch a surprise attack to reduce the number of enemy soldiers injured.

Unexpectedly, someone else made the move before him.

What's wrong with this person?

Paranoia?

Should we kill everyone we see?

"That's strange. I didn't think I had revealed any weaknesses. How did you find out?"

But instead of Wang Bai's reply, he received Abudel's Red Magician.

The raging flames rushed directly towards Polnareff.

The deck instantly turned into a battlefield!

The silver chariot's swordsmanship was superb, his thrusts sharp and fierce, while the red magician's flames were raging and intense.

After several rounds of fighting, flames engulfed Polnareff and the Silver Chariot, just when everyone thought the battle was over—

"It's not over yet!" Polnareff's voice came from the flames.

Suddenly, the silver chariot removed its seemingly cumbersome armor!

In an instant, the silver chariot's speed increased dramatically!

It transformed into a silver streak that was difficult to see with the naked eye, weaving through the arena. Due to its excessive speed, it even created several afterimages that were so realistic that they attacked Avdol from all directions at the same time!

The sword tip sliced ​​through the air, emitting a piercing shriek.

"Crossfire Hurricane Special!" Avdol roared, and the red magician unleashed multiple fire tornadoes, attempting to disrupt and devour the afterimages. At the same time, an even more powerful flame shot out from the ground, directly attacking Polnareff's main body!

However, the silver chariot was simply too fast after its armor was removed!

It was so fast that it exceeded the limits of normal human dynamic vision, even more astonishing than what was shown in the original work.

The fire attacks all missed, only burning the remaining afterimage.

"Too slow!" Polnareff laughed triumphantly, the true form of the silver chariot had already broken through the flame blockade, and the sharp sword was aimed straight at Avdol's vitals!

At this critical moment, Wang Bai, who had been observing the situation quietly, made his move.

Polnareff's speed far exceeded his imagination and far surpassed the speed shown in the original work. Even his enhanced eyes could hardly keep up.

No wonder the other party doesn't have any special abilities; this speed alone is already a special ability.

He knew that Avdol would have difficulty keeping up with this speed, so the runes in his body quietly circulated, and the power of the enhancement magic was instantly added to the newly awakened Stand!

"The Shadow Legion!"

They accepted Wang Bai's will.

Several dark figures rose from the ground like a curtain, instantly blocking Abuder's path!

Instead of trying to capture the silver chariot's absolute speed, they cleverly constructed an impenetrable wall of shadow.

At the same time, several other shadows, like ghosts, did not attack the high-speed moving silver chariot, but appeared directly around Polnareff's main body, the shadows forming swords that blocked all his possible routes of movement!
