I am a Type-Moon comic artist!

Coincidentally, the Holy Grail War was taking place in Cairo—he had spent several years there and knew very well where it was best to go to heaven.

Coincidentally, the Holy Grail War began precisely at the time of the new moon!

It just so happens that it was raining that day.

As luck would have it, Berserker's halberd allowed him to find the gravity of the crescent moon!

Then—he evolved—

In the manga "JoJo's Bizarre Adventure", there are countless Stand users, but there is only one person who can take the Stand's power to the next level besides "Arrow"!

That's DIO!

This character, who appears at the very beginning, can be described as the most evil person in the world, the most hardworking person in the world, and the most talented person in the world.

He unearthed what could be considered the ultimate means of evolution—

And then—finally!

Now! A century-old dream has finally come true at this moment—

This man has finally reached heaven! He has reached a realm no one has ever reached before, and possessed that substitute—

"The·World·OverHea|ven————"

DIO slowly landed on the ground, looking at the Servants, magicians, and agents who had gathered around him.

Looking at the people surrounding him, he showed no fear or dread whatsoever...

Right now, all he can feel is peace of mind...

True peace of mind.

To him, everything in front of him was nothing more than clay chickens and earthenware dogs, ants that could be easily killed.

"This is the name of my Stand..." DIO said, extending his hand to everyone in front of him. His tone was extremely calm, as if these people were no longer his enemies, as if his previous disheveled state had never existed. "How about it? It's not too late now. This is the last chance. I need to rule this world... but that will require a lot of energy. How about it? You are all capable individuals. If you join my ranks, I will grant you eternal peace of mind... you will never be afraid, terrified, or insecure again... everything is before you. How about it?"

swoosh————

The next moment, an arrow struck his feet.

"That's the answer, isn't it?" Arash said, drawing his bow in the distance...

Even so, no matter where he was, he could still feel the chill and goosebumps all over his body... The attack was not only to deny, but also to make himself no longer afraid.

That's right...

He was feeling scared; he was feeling terrified.

but--

He had encountered this feeling countless times. A true hero is someone who clearly knows fear and overcomes it!

Even... the feeling of fear made him laugh.

It feels so familiar...

"Haha, it seems... you refused, that's alright. And what about you? If you agree, come this way to me, and then... especially the Servants, I will give you bodies, real bodies to move in this world—like this."

DIO had just finished speaking!

Martha's expression changed—

She could sense it... the DIO before her was no longer a Servant, but a genuine living being—

DIO has become a real vampire!

"Like this, I can give you any kind of body you desire—"

next moment.

A light appeared—

The ultraviolet light shone on DIO.

Then...DIO laughed!

"It doesn't work?" The magician was taken aback. Was he a vampire? Why wasn't the ultraviolet light working?

"Hehehe—of course! I have now found eternal peace of mind, and this body no longer has any flaws!" DIO laughed.

The next moment, his expression changed almost imperceptibly—

Countless Noble Phantasms were shot at him!

"Let the clown's performance end here—there should be a limit to folly." Gilgamesh looked at DIO coldly from within Vimana.

bang bang bang-

"Oh..." The next moment, Gilgamesh narrowed his snake-like pupils and looked at DIO: "You..."

"Hmph, it's nothing serious. I just... erased all your Noble Phantasms—those Noble Phantasms don't exist in this [reality]!"

It's not time acceleration...

Barthelon took a slight breath, but... it was some unknown, even more dangerous ability. According to him... his Stand's name was "The World OverHeaven".

World Beyond Paradise...

She looked at DIO, whose long golden hair reached his waist, and whose body was unusually white, as if he had been covered in white powder. Even his Stand was the same, having turned white.

He exuded an eerie aura.

And that's why—something that no one, including her, noticed.

DIO's face paled slightly without him noticing...

However, because his complexion was naturally very pale, it didn't show...

The World OverHeaven's use is not unlimited; each use consumes his stamina and soul, although... these can be recovered, and he can feel his stamina and soul replenishing.

However... it is not without limits.

That's why he only transformed himself into a vampire with a stone mask, instead of becoming a Dead Apostle... or a vampire like Alucard...

Although he erased the "reality" of his fear of sunlight...

Generally speaking, he can only use this ability a limited number of times each day; after that, he can only swing his fists and yell "Muda Muda—"

but...

DIO laughed...

Fate has indeed always been on DIO's side!

"It seems none of you are willing to serve me... Heh, what a pity. In that case—I'll have no choice but to kill you all! I can't let you become a threat to me, DIO!"

Seeing the group become wary, DIO smiled again: "However, not now... There's another matter before that—obtaining the Holy Grail!"

"Varied--?"

The next moment, just as Barthezello was about to say something, DIO disappeared!

Vanished into thin air!

Chapter 255 The Holy Grail

18:21

The Magic Association, Cairo Branch!

underground--

Servant, Assassin vanished in a flash of light... She was the only Servant left guarding this place. She faced DIO and simply withdrew.

"Humph."

DIO gave a cold laugh, and the crisp sound of his footsteps echoed through the underground—

Even a Servant of Hero King rank could hold out for a while without using Ea, but this barrier seemed to be nonexistent in front of DIO. He simply waved the World Hand and dispelled it!

DIO also saw that thing inside.

I can clearly see that thing in front of me—the Holy Grail!

......

18:21

"Is anyone there? Answer me now if you hear me! Give me an answer!" Barthezmero's face grew increasingly grim as he spoke, offering no reply whatsoever...

There was not a sound at all...

“I see. So that being called DIO is after the Holy Grail…” Shakespeare nodded and said.

"And it's not just that... spatial teleportation? He arrived there in an instant and killed the guards! That's why no one answered the communication..."

"Damn it!" Mordred sat down to the side. "What on earth is that guy's ability? It seems really weird..."

"I don't know, but whatever the ability is, there must be a limit... probably..." Lion's Robbery Realm said vaguely.

"Approximately? Can you give me a more precise word?" Mordred said, dissatisfied.

Kairi Shishikage waved his hand with a wry smile and lit a cigarette: "Well, there's nothing I can do about it... After all, I'm not very familiar with Stand abilities and stuff. You should ask Kurokawa Kazuya about this, right? But... I haven't been able to find him or his Servant since the beginning..."

“That guy…” Gilgamesh narrowed his eyes slightly upon hearing the name. “What is he planning? That Kurokawa and Ya… After all, he doesn’t seem nervous at all. He might know… DIO’s current abilities and weaknesses!”

......

"Fate is indeed on my side." The world behind DIO appeared, and he placed his hand on the Greater Grail.

"Under normal circumstances, I couldn't alter reality on a large scale, but things are different now—"

The Greater Grail was disappearing, fading little by little, and then—it merged into DIO's Stand!

"Haha—that's different! The Holy Grail can completely replace me as a consumable! Once this Great Grail is filled, I can use my Stand—The World OverHeaven—indefinitely! At that time, I will become the true god of this world!"

Everything will be decided in a single thought.

"Then let's kill them all."

As DIO spoke, he disappeared once again, returning from the location of the Greater Grail to the location of Cairo Tower.
