I am a Type-Moon comic artist!

According to previous intelligence, DIO should have had a Dead Apostle by his side, but now... there's nothing there!

"That's enough, DIO! Confess to the Lord—" Martha threw away her staff, revealing gauntlets in her hand, and said that the battle she had been waiting for was about to begin!

"Hmph—" DIO smiled slightly and turned halfway around.

Raindrops pelted his pale skin, golden hair... fair skin, an eerie smile, and an unusual aura emanating from him in the downpour.

Martha, standing behind him with her fist raised, felt a chill run down her spine, as if something were licking and sucking at her neck...

It was as if she had fallen into a nest where countless snakes were coiled together!

"Have you... seen the Lord you worship?" DIO asked Martha slowly and deliberately as he walked towards her without any intention of attacking her.

"Of course! Who do you think I am? Of course I've seen it with my own eyes!"

“Oh...I see. Indeed, it is possible that you, the saintess, could have such a possibility. So...does your master still exist now?” DIO said with a smile.

"What do you mean?" Martha clenched her fist. "Of course I am! Even if I were to attack you now, it would be a revelation from the Lord!"

"Really?" DIO suddenly appeared behind Martha and whispered in her ear.

Martha threw a punch behind her, but missed.

"Is it fun to play around with the ability to stop time like this?" Martha said, raising her fist at Dio, who seemed to have not moved at all.

"Haha... You're not sure either... You can't be sure if the one who gave you the revelation is the Lord, or if your Lord is still around... You can't be sure about any of that."

"No—the Lord has always been there, so what exactly do you mean by all this?"

"Hmph." DIO's body floated slightly, and he sat down on a chair that had appeared out of nowhere, his legs crossed. "You already told me, didn't you? The revelation the Lord gave you was to come and defeat me... defeat me before I've fully matured. So, what does that mean?"

DIO's lips curled into a smile: "Does this... mean your master is afraid of me?"

boom--!

Martha, who had somehow retrieved the staff, suddenly threw it at DIO, but it was knocked away by the Stand that appeared in front of him.

"Oh...you dare not admit it?" DIO laughed gleefully. "Then let me say it again clearly: your master is afraid of me...afraid of my impending growth, so he can't wait to destroy me..."

"So what? No matter what, I'm going to finish you off here, DIO!" Martha took a deep breath, calmed herself down, and without saying anything more, smashed his head open!

"Haha... Destroy me, huh...?" DIO slowly stood up. "Well then, before that, accept one of my proposals."

DIO suddenly appeared behind Martha once again: "How about you serve me? Like you serve your Lord?"

"You ungrateful wretch—!"

"I am about to reach that realm, about to reach heaven, about to become omnipotent, and to attain eternal peace. So...would you like to come and share this peace with me?"

DIO appeared before Martha, extending his hand and saying, "Come... take my hand... serve me forever—"

boom----!

Fists clashing!

A clash between the world of boxing gloves and DIO!

"Oh ho... so you've refused, huh? You've refused my proposal, DIO's proposal! You've refused the proposal of this omnipotent god who's about to ascend to heaven!"

"Die, you monster! Ora!"

"Hmm...this...it really brings back memories...well then, let me play with you for a bit."

As DIO spoke, the world behind him appeared, and he struck a pose.

"Ora ora ora—!"

"Mu Da Mu Da Mu Da——!"

After a brief test, DIO smiled slightly, and the next moment—both of them began to unleash their full power!

"Ora ora ora ora ora ora ora————!!"

“Wood big wood big wood big wood big wood big wood big wood big————!!”

"Haha, is your imitation funny... Well then—can you imitate this too? THE WORLD! Stop! Time—!"

next moment.

Time has stopped!

"What a pity... The only person who could track my location has rejected my proposal, so there's nothing more to say—die!"

With that, DIO slashed at Martha's neck with his hand chop!

Chapter 251 Vampires and Vampires

It stopped—

DIO's expression gradually turned grim: "I...I can't move!"

DIO's hand stopped a short distance in front of Martha; it couldn't move at all!

My body felt stiff, completely unable to move—

clatter--

The next moment, he took two steps back.

I stretched my body...

It can move... but why?

Dio punched Martha in the stomach again, and it hit her!

The next moment, he suddenly punched Martha in the stomach with all his might, but—he stopped again!

"This... I knew it... I don't know why, but I can hit her, but I can't kill her? Tsk... Time's up."

Dio Brando took a few steps back: "Time has begun to flow—"

"Ugh—" Martha took a few steps back and rubbed her flat stomach: "You just stopped time, didn't you?"

"Just now... what exactly happened..."

“Phew…I’m pretty satisfied with exchanging two punches with you,” Martha said. “So let’s do this—commit suicide, Rider!”

hum-

As Martha spoke, a faint red light flashed across her body.

*Pfft*

next moment.

The world's fist pierced directly through DIO's chest.

"This...this is—what is this...wow—"

“Command Spell,” Martha said. “I am a Ruler, after all, and I have the authority to command each Servant. However… if this hadn’t been a revelation from the Lord, I would never have considered using this Command Spell. So, when I saw you, I secretly gave the order with a Command Spell—【You cannot kill me.】After all… I still wanted to try punching you, but it would be difficult to know when you would stop time, so I used the Command Spell first.”

"Heh...hehe...ha ...!!"

"Ok?"

"It seems the Command Seals are effective after all. Although my heart has been crushed, I'm still far from dead! Even if only my head is left, I can survive! And—Barnes!"

DIO shouted, and the next moment, the last remaining Dead Apostle, Isaac Barnes, knelt down in front of DIO and pulled out his own heart.

"Please, Lord DIO."

“Of course—” DIO placed his heart against the hole in his chest, inserted one hand into Isaac Barnes’ neck, and absorbed a large amount of blood.

By the time Martha realized what was happening, Isaac Barnes was already lying on the ground.

And the wound on Dior's chest has completely healed!

If it weren't for the ripped fabric on her chest, it would have been as if she had never been hurt: "Weakling! You think you can kill me, DIO, like this? How naive!"

"You bastard—"

"Hmph!" DIO sneered and looked into the distance: "It seems you're well-prepared too, but that's enough! It looks like the other Servants are about to arrive... Goodbye."

DIO narrowed his eyes slightly: "See you when I... reach Heaven."

thump—

The next moment, DIO suddenly disappeared.

"Time stopped...did they escape?" Martha let out a soft breath, sensing the strange sensation...

She almost died just now. If she hadn't used the Command Seals earlier, even so... using up both Command Seals she could use on DIO didn't help much.

"However... this means that the last Dead Apostle beside DIO should also—"

As she spoke, her expression changed: "Where's the body?"

......

DIO has evaded countless attacks from Servants.

Because he couldn't linger in battle, he didn't kill any of them. After all... not only were they Servants, but even the mages and agents were difficult to deal with, and killing them wouldn't be so easy...

He might be the one who gets left behind if he's not careful.

Even so, his Master had already used two Command Seals.

There's one last Command Seal!

Time...about three hours left—

15:26 minutes

slam-la-

DIO walked under the dark sky, with Isaac Barnes, who should have been dead, following not far behind him.

Immortal!

Isaac Barnes, as a high-ranking Dead Apostle, also possesses a powerful immortality, nine times—to kill him, one must kill him nine times.

And... he has now died four times, not for any other reason than to help DIO with his treatment.

The blood of the Dead Apostles possesses far greater energy than human blood, and absorbing such blood yields better healing results.
