Infinite Transmigration Starting from Violet

Soon, Dio arrived in front of Jolyne, Josuke, and the others.

Jolyne, Josuke, Emporio, FF, Ames, Weather Forecast...

Almost every one of them used a body double to protect themselves.

But during the stopped time, it's completely useless.

Even the barrier Jolyne created with silk threads was cleaved open by The World with a single hand strike.

"Hmph... I'd love to see Jotaro's expression after I kill his daughter right in front of him... but better safe than sorry. I, Dio, will be cautious and finish you all off right now. Let's start with Jotaro's daughter and Joseph's son..."

The world raised its fist, just as it was about to pierce Jolyne and Josuke's chests...

"Wait... what is this?"

The cautious Dio observed a strange phenomenon: although the world where time had stopped had lost its color, Dio still instinctively felt a chill.

He looked ahead and saw that the weather forecaster and the others were surrounded by a special aura filled with hostility, which was extremely dangerous.

"What...is this?"

Lu Ye laughed as he hurried this way.

"That's the miasma from the Mortal Blade... Dio, although I can't properly shape the miasma into a form that can protect people, the Weather Forecaster, who can manipulate the weather, can do it easily... Even though I've 'disappeared,' he still remembers what I said. He's such a reassuring comrade..."

"Dio, take your time to guess what this is."

"There are three seconds left... no, probably two or three seconds. I can't get there in those two seconds, and even if you remember me later, you won't know where I am..."

"I'll be the one lurking in the shadows then... I'm quite adept at ambushes!"

Chapter 782 Poincaré's Return

The dark red miasma was perfectly swirling around everyone.

"Hmph... Is it the ability of 'weather forecasting'?" Dio pondered. "Judging from his ability to manipulate the weather at will, it's not impossible that he could gather gas around for defense... But what I'm wondering is, where exactly did this blackish-red gas, which makes my senses feel extremely dangerous, come from?"

Dio felt the miasma looked familiar, but he couldn't remember where it came from.

"Is this some kind of Stand ability? But the number of Jotaro's daughter and her group is correct. I feel like... I, Dio, have forgotten something."

"Hmph... Fine, since I can't get close, I'll just take you all out from a distance in one go..."

Dio sneered and pulled a throwing knife from his waist.

Then, he hurled it at Jolyne and her group, who were gathered around the weather forecast.

"Wood big wood big wood big wood big wood big wood big wood big!!!"

The daggers thrown from Dio's hand remained motionless in the wind, no longer advancing an inch. Their sharp blades were pointed straight at Jolyne and the others, with the closest throwing knife less than thirty centimeters from Josuke's throat.

Adding to the kinetic energy from Dio's own time acceleration, those twenty daggers would probably only take half a second to pierce through Jolyne and everyone else's bodies, instantly destroying vital organs such as the heart, throat, and brain.

In two seconds, Dio threw more than twenty throwing knives.

"Although I, Dio, cannot easily touch these dangerous gases, throwing knives don't have eyes. I can move at three times the speed during time stop now, but if that brat Jotaro stops time, I won't be able to move, and my situation will be just as dangerous. But if I drink the blood of these two people in front of me... my abilities will undergo another qualitative change..."

"You have one second left. These throwing knives will kill you all," Dio said, starting to move backward after throwing the darts. "To prevent Jotaro from launching a sneak attack, I will retreat temporarily. After the next time stop, I will absorb your blood...!"

"Time begins to flow!"

The world regained its color, the clouds in the sky began to move, and the sea breeze began to blow.

"what?!"

To Dio's surprise, who was already far from where he had been, the throwing knife did not kill Jolyne and the others as he had expected.

Instead, the throwing knives remained stationary around Jolyne and the others, as if they were still in a state of time stop.

However, it did not stop moving at all; it stopped about twenty centimeters away from the group.

"This is... a dagger?"

Jolyne and the others, having recovered from the pause in time, also became aware of the presence of the throwing knives around them.

“That’s right, time stopped just now…” The weather forecaster lightly flicked the dagger away with his finger. “It’s alright… I gathered the air earlier and formed an ‘air wall’ around us to intercept these daggers… It was a close call. I didn’t expect these throwing knives to be within 20 centimeters of me.”

"Dio didn't choose close combat, so it really is because of this strange gas?" Josuke looked at the blackish-red miasma with curiosity. "I remember Jolyne and I were able to avoid being attacked by Dio because of it. It seems that Dio is helpless against this gas... This is really great!"

"Look... Dio!" FF shouted at that moment, "He's about twenty meters in front of us!"

"Hmph," Dio said, one hand on his hip, his left hand hanging naturally at his sides. "Gathering air to form a barrier, huh? Weather forecast... is that it? Your abilities are impressive. Now, take a step towards me, and I'll consider it an oath of allegiance to me, Dio..."

“Impossible. I would never... never take orders from someone who is so close to Enrique Pucci.”

The weather forecaster's eyes seemed to flash with electricity. "In the end... I came here not for some grand cause, or for some unnecessary reason like Jolyne. I just feel that Pucci's debt... must be settled. It's not enough for him to die. Dio, you who gave Pucci his Stand are the source of everything."

"That would be such a pity. If I could use your abilities... Hmph, then a sense of security would come rolling in. Don't you think a sense of security is a good thing? Just like when you fell in love with your own sister, if you had foreseen and understood this fate, could you have avoided it? Rather than falling in love with someone you don't need to love, it's better not to have met them in the first place."

Dio laughed. "Ultimately, humans seek lovers, wealth, power... These things are not merely necessities or desires, but rather things humans pursue for peace of mind. As long as you come to me, I will grant your request."

"license?"

"I grant you a second chance at life, I grant your lover a second chance, I grant you and her a chance to live a happy life together again..." Dio's voice was like the serpent from the Garden of Eden that bewitched Adam and Eve. "You may hate Pucci, but have you ever thought about what would have happened if you could have foreseen it from the beginning? Whether you continued your relationship with your sister, chose to reunite with Pucci, or chose a new path on your own... perhaps you wouldn't choose the second option now, but undeniably, all the choices are in your hands. You won't be panicked because you don't know what the future holds."

"What the hell are you talking about?!" FF roared. "Starting over... it's as ridiculous as dog shit in the toilet!"

“FF, don’t rush.” Jolyne lowered her voice. “Let him talk. Delaying this time will be to our advantage.”

“You may find this laughable, but Jotaro’s daughter, have you ever heard of the Poincaré Regression Theorem?”

"Poincaré is back?" FF asked. "What's that?"

Emporio then spoke up: "I... I've read in a book that a closed finite system, after a long period of time, will inevitably return to its initial state, and as long as this closed system exists, it will continue to repeat this process. Of course, this process is not perfect; there will be extremely small differences."

"What...what does this mean?" Ames said. "I'm sorry, I'm not very well-educated! Please explain it more clearly!"

Emporio: "The universe will eventually disappear... You all know that, right? Because the universe will keep expanding and eventually collapse... But if our universe is really a closed system, then after enough time, the universe will return to its most primitive state, that is, after one universe is destroyed, a new universe will be born and then evolve again... After our Earth and solar system are destroyed, after a long period of time, a planet that is almost exactly the same as Earth will appear again, or even a person who is almost exactly the same as you, except that the positions of the basic particles that make up all of this will be slightly different, and it is impossible to perfectly restore it."

"Wow, such a thing actually happens. The universe is truly amazing..."

“Hmph…that’s right. It’s like playing poker. As long as you keep playing, the same situation will always occur, and even the card values ​​and order will be the same,” Dio said. “In a sense, the Poincaré theorem is a kind of ‘cycle’.”

“But I think it’s impossible,” Emporio said. “The universe is too big. The time required to achieve a ‘Poincaré return’ to make the universe return to its original state is unimaginable. This time may be longer than the lifespan of the universe. Unless the universe can exist forever, we will not be able to wait for the next return. We will disappear because the universe will disappear. Even the observer will be gone. It will be meaningless to explore the existence of reincarnation.”

"But... what are you going to do?" the weather forecaster said. "You can't do anything to us right now, how can I trust you?"

"I, Dio, have no way to deal with you?" Dio sneered. "That dark red miasma seems to be gradually dissipating, doesn't it? It's not that your abilities have lost their effectiveness, but rather that the malevolent energy within it hasn't been exposed to blood, and thus has lost its power..."

"【World】is the ability to rule the world. Even Jotaro has his limits. The next time time is paused, you will... die."

Dio said, "This is my last chance. I only share my secrets with my friends. I won't tell you until I get an answer."

Josuke: "That's enough... If you could really do it, you wouldn't be wasting your breath here."

Weather forecast: "I will... kill you."

"Then die! Muda!!"

Dio suddenly turned around, and [World] punched behind him with tremendous speed.

Gray Age was sent flying, rolling several times on the ground along with Lu Ye.

“Indeed… I, Dio, was just thinking it was about time for you to show up…” Dio looked at Lu Ye on the ground, “In the instant time flowed, I knew where the gas came from, and combined with your Stand ability… Hmph, you seem to be able to hide yourself, not through simple tricks, but by actually teleporting yourself into a certain space… You are stalling for time, but I, Dio, am also stalling for time. I think it’s about time for you to come out, after all, there is no oxygen in there, and your Stand can only transfer objects that you come into contact with.”

"Hehehe... Hahahaha!!"

Lu Ye laughed as he got up from the ground.

"What are you laughing at?" Dio crossed his arms.

“I’m so proud of myself, Dio. Even if I don’t practice swordsmanship anymore, my skills haven’t deteriorated at all,” Lu Ye squinted one eye. “Do you know that the best sword in the world, when combined with a swordsman, can cut a person in half without the person being cut feeling any movement at all?”

"What……?"

"By the way, Ashina Style: Ichimonji, this is the sword technique I used to cut you."

Dio was about to say something when his face suddenly turned terrified.

He sensed that the vibrant life force within him was rapidly fading away.

The next second, a blood-red longsword pierced through his chest, bursting forth like a bamboo shoot after a spring rain.

Dio's chest was cleaved open by the Mortal Blade, and blood gushed out like a fountain.

As time began to flow, Lu Ye used his Stand ability to hide himself in place.

Jolyne, Josuke, and the others also noticed this and gave Lu Ye enough time.

Then, Lu Ye used his ability one last time.

Five seconds is enough time for him to reach Dio behind him, and Dio won't even notice... that Ichimonji that cuts through the heart.

It can be said that Lu Ye created an opportunity when he first used his ability.

The second time he used his ability, he defeated Dio.

The terrifying thing about this ability is that the world cannot affect him.

He has perfectly disappeared from this world.

It was as if he had never been there, so no one could remember him in those five seconds, including Dio.

If Dio still remembered Lu Ye, he wouldn't have given Lu Ye a chance to get close to him at all.

A terrifying, dark red miasma surrounded Dio, and no one dared to approach him.

"What...what is that...?"

"Did it work!?"

"Don't use a substitute to get close to that gas! It can even severely injure a vampire, it's terrifying!"

Jolyne stopped FF from shooting at the plankton.

"Aaaaaaaahhhhhh... I, Dio, actually... I, Dio, actually...!!"

Dio roughly understood... Lu Ye's "ability".

The reason he didn't launch an attack earlier wasn't because he really wanted to recruit the weather forecaster.

Instead, they were waiting for Lu Ye to appear!

Dio had been wondering since the attack on Jolyne and the others that the miasma used in the weather forecast came from.

But Lu Ye's ability was still active at that time, so out of caution, Dio chose to attack with a throwing knife.
