The miasma slashed across Dio's body, but at the moment of the slash, Dio's body began to heal.

As the blade cut in front, Dio's body and hind legs were healed.

Lu Ye couldn't help but curse inwardly that this was even more potent than the panacea.

Dio snorted coldly.

"I didn't expect you guys to actually dare to come back. Have you discovered a new way to use 'Stands'? Oh well, in that case, I won't bother looking for you anymore. You'll just stay in this old world anyway, since the dead can't reach my Dio's heaven."

The instant Dio launched his world attack, Lu Ye darted back into the gap. The next instant, the gap opened beside Dio, and Lu Ye swung the Mortal Blade, attempting to sever Dio's hands, but Dio's movements were incredibly swift.

He hadn't expected Lu Ye to crawl back into the gap, and was slightly stunned, causing his thoughts to not keep up with his body's movements, thus wasting an opportunity.

But this time Dio won't give Lu Ye any time.

At such a close distance, Lu Ye's speed was like a snail running a kilometer, proceeding at a speed even slower than crawling.

Dio slowly approached the side of the gap, revealing a wicked smile.

"I didn't expect you to still have the courage to come back and fight me, Dio. You've gone this far, so I'll give you a little praise..."

But at that moment, Dio noticed something was wrong.

There was only Lu Ye in the crevice.

"Where's Joseph's adopted daughter? And Polnareff isn't here either..." Dio's eyes revealed a hint of suspicion. "What trick are they planning to pull this time?"

This time, Dio didn't hesitate to pierce Lu Ye's heart, then unleashed his power on his blood-stained right hand.

“‘Truth’ has been overridden by me, Dio,” Dio’s gaze slowly moved, then landed behind the transparent Shizuru who was running towards Jolyne. “No matter what we do, it’s futile. I will kill you all without hesitation.”

Shizuka was still running, but her speed seemed so slow to Dio.

Dio pierced Jing's chest directly, and blood splattered onto Dio's golden bracelet.

Chapter 798 Platinum Star - Beyond Heaven

Xu Lun, Lu Ye, and Jing were dealt with one after another.

Even a Stand evolved from "Arrow" can't defeat Dio's "World Beyond Heaven"?!

"Ooooooo...Dio!!"

Jotaro's anger is about to explode, and he's steadily making his way here.

Even knowing that [Platinum Star: The World] was no match for [The World Beyond Heaven], Jotaro still rushed over here.

But at this moment, he didn't care about any of that; all he could think about was how to give Dio a thorough beating.

Just like it was more than 20 years ago.

"Heh heh... Instead of running away, you're walking towards me, Dio?"

Dio casually tossed Shizuka aside and walked towards Jotaro.

"Joseph Joestar, Josuke Higashikata, and your daughter... You're the only one left of the Joestar bloodline. Once I've dealt with you, I, Dio, will have no more worries! You dared to say you were angry before? Bring it on, Jotaro! I'll tear you to pieces and neatly arrange your entrails to feed the dogs!"

“My Stand—'World Beyond Heaven'—will surely achieve the truth that I, Dio, desire.”

The two were getting closer.

Everything in sight is changing.

Polar bears living in the Arctic can go into the water to catch fish, but within seconds they can be swept into the Pacific Ocean by the accelerated ocean currents.

Macaws that live in the Amazon River were carried by a gust of wind to the South Cook Islands in an instant.

Day and night alternated endlessly, until finally even the sun was stretched into a ribbon, like an extended golden film roll.

Time is accelerating and will eventually reach the end of the universe.

But before that, Dio must sever all ties and cut off Joestar's destiny in this world.

Dio... will never take his connection with the Joestar family to another new, ultimate destination reached through accelerated time.

Jotaro and Dio came to stand before them.

However, a distance of two to three meters is the limit of the range of the two stunt doubles.

"Star Platinum... Hmph, a Stand of this caliber is utterly worthless! Bring it on, Jotaro!"

dio launched the first attack.

Just as World Beyond Heaven was about to attack Jotaro...

"Eurah!!"

"Huh?!"

A purple humanoid Stand appeared in a flash and struck Dio's temple from a tricky angle.

Dio was very surprised.

Even if Star Platinum has recovered to its peak due to Jotaro's mental strength, with its speed and power back to their zenith, it shouldn't be possible for it to hit him first in this world of accelerated time!

Could it be... just a moment ago, Jotaro stopped time?!

Seeing Dio's astonished expression, Jotaro said, "That's right. Just now I realized something. If it's just a momentary pause, I can capture your movements and extend my own combat endurance."

A ruthless glint flashed in Dio's eyes: "Useless!"

"Eora!"

Platinum Star and the World made their moves simultaneously.

However, this time, Star Platinum struck Dio first, hitting him in the chest.

Despite his incredible regenerative abilities, Dio was still involuntarily thrown backwards several times after being struck by Platinum Star's full power.

"Ugh... How could this happen?" Dio clutched his chest, which had already healed. "To truly defeat you, I still need to use the real power of 'World Beyond Heaven'!"

“I see,” Jotaro pulled down his hat brim. “It’s a Stand of the same type as my Star Platinum.”

"Stop talking big! Your Star Platinum is like a rat in the toilet, completely inferior to my Dio's World Beyond Heaven!" Dio closed the distance again: "Even your entire 'existence' will vanish! Jotaro! I, Dio, will not fall for your little tricks a third time!!"

"Die, Jotaro! This is truly the final blow!!"

"Platinum Star: World!!"

As Jotaro paused time, Dio activated the World Beyond Heaven ability.

This time, Dio was not only unaffected by the time stop, but his speed also remained unchanged.

"Ora ora ora!!!"

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

Jotaro cannot see Dio and can only attack by relying on his senses and the connection between his bloodline and his body.

But compared to the speed of Dio, it's still too slow.

In the next instant, Dio's hand pierced through Jotaro's chest.

And it truly did crush Jotaro's heart.

"Hmph... Hahaha... It's done. Star Platinum is indeed nothing to Dio. With this, all ties are severed here... I'll say it again, my hand will definitely touch the truth, the truth that has no obstacles...!"

Dio withdrew his hand from Jotaro's wound, and Jotaro slowly knelt down.

Dio gazed up at the world where time was still accelerating.

"From now on, in two minutes, the acceleration of time will reach a point where even I, Dio, cannot observe it, and the Joestar clan will absolutely not reach the 'New World' that I, Dio, have created! I, Dio, will be the secret emperor of the New World!"

"Ok?"

As if sensing something, Dio slowly turned his head.

Then his eyes widened in horror.

Jotaro, who had just been pierced through the chest, slowly stood up again, and the wound on his chest had completely disappeared!

"H-How is this possible!" Dio exclaimed in shock.

"Eora!"

Dio's response was a sudden, powerful strike from Star Platinum.

This attack knocked Dio back once again.

“This power…!! This is… this is ‘Beyond Heaven’!!” Dio looked incredulous.

"Could it be...could it be...a Stand of the same type?!"

"Star Platinum and The World are the exact same type of Stand?!"

Jotaro remained silent.

"No, this is impossible! Die, Jotaro!!"

Dio attacked forward, but just as the attack was in progress and he was about to reach Jotaro, Dio's right hand suddenly exploded without any warning.

Jotaro naturally didn't let this opportunity slip by.

Heart of Platinum unleashed another powerful attack: "Ora!!"

A clear sound of bones breaking rang out, followed by a splatter of blood.

This punch crippled Dio's left hand.

"H-How is this possible... My injuries, Dio's, haven't healed...!?"

A large wave crashed in, and in that instant, Jotaro's already tattered coat fell off. Along with the coat, his shattered gold bracelet and a turtle with a ruby ​​embedded in its shell also fell off.

"Ughhhhh... What... what's going on?!"

“This is from a ‘parallel world.’ It was brought from another world by Lu Ye and my aunt from a family relationship… Shizu Joestar, and delivered to me via Polnareff,” Jotaro said. “In parallel worlds and the basic world, when two identical objects touch, they will ‘annihilate’. Just now, your right fist touched this bracelet that I keep on my chest… Didn’t you notice?”

"Without your hands, your abilities are useless..." Jotaro stood in front of Dio. "Come on, how long will it take for your hands to recover? Once they're back, I'll beat you up again with 'Star Platinum'."

"Huh...huh..."

Dio knelt down, head bowed, his blond hair soaked by the seawater, looking like a exhausted and withered lion.

"Muda!"

In that instant, Dio suddenly sprang up and splattered the blood from his hand onto Jotaro's eyes.
