But now it seems that Diablo was simply knocked unconscious and then his head was slapped off.
The initial excitement at the discovery of Diavolo's appearance quickly faded, and Polnareff regained his composure:
"Who are you? How did you manage to defeat Diablo... and you even used Diablo's face to lure me out? Do you know anything about me?"
Chapter 238 Blackbird - Crimson King
To be honest, Polnareff's first thought was to end the call.
After all, he couldn't determine whether Qin Chuan was Diablo's enemy or not. What if Diablo had realized he was still alive and was deliberately using this method to find him out?
"My name doesn't matter. You're Polnareff, right?"
Qin Chuan had no intention of arguing with Polnareff; he just wanted to finish the JOJO world missions as soon as possible.
On the one hand, it would save more time to train in the Dragon Ball world; on the other hand, I couldn't wait to see what achievement rewards would be unlocked after completing the second main quest in the JOJO world.
However, despite his casual remark, Polnareff on the other end of the computer screen did change his expression.
He had never told Qin Chuan his name, but Qin Chuan had revealed it in one sentence, making him realize that his identity and whereabouts might have been exposed, and he immediately wanted to end the call.
But just as his fingers touched the keyboard, before he could even press a key, he heard Qin Chuan's next sentence come from the computer:
"I've spoken with Jotaro Kujo. You're his friend, right? I killed Dio too."
These words made Polnareff stop pointing. He was stunned, not expecting to hear Jotaro Kujo's name again.
Although he occasionally met with Jotaro Kujo after leaving Egypt, they were mostly separated.
Especially after he began investigating the "Passion" organization in Italy, he did not meet with Jotaro Kujo for many years.
If the "Passion" organization hadn't blocked his means of communication, Polnareff would have actually considered asking Jotaro Kujo for help, but he never found the opportunity.
Now, Qin Chuan actually accurately stated Jotaro Kujo's name and even said that he killed Dio... This made Polnareff abandon his idea of cutting off contact:
"Are you telling the truth?"
"I have no reason to lie to you. You should have already hacked the webcam on this laptop, right? Just look at Diablo and you'll know."
As Qin Chuan spoke, he dragged Diablo to the front of the laptop and positioned his face in front of the laptop's camera.
Does he look alright?
"...Indeed, it looks like he was violently knocked unconscious."
Polnareff did indeed hack into the webcam of Qin Chuan's laptop. He had been studying computer technology diligently during his seclusion, all for this moment.
And now, on his computer screen, Diavolo's unconscious face was clearly displayed.
Polnareff has used his Stand to take down many villains, so he knows very well what it looks like when someone is knocked unconscious—Diavolo's uneasy expression is definitely not a normal state of sleep.
Having read this far, Polnareff had begun to believe Qin Chuan's words to some extent, but at the same time, more doubts arose in his heart:
"You knocked Diablo unconscious and then showed him to me... what were you trying to do?"
Qin Chuan was able to subdue Diavolo, and judging from Diavolo's appearance, he was clearly knocked down by Qin Chuan before he even had a chance to resist.
After dealing with Diablo, someone with such terrifying power didn't kill him immediately, but instead used Diablo's face to lure him out... Could it be that he has something he wants from him?
"You have an 'arrow' in your hand, right?"
Qin Chuan didn't stand on ceremony and directly stated his request, knowing that Polnareff would definitely agree.
"And it's not an ordinary 'arrow,' it's an 'insect arrow' that can evolve a Stand. How about I trade this for that arrow?"
This was Qin Chuan's purpose. After all, the "Insect Arrow" was in Polnareff's hands, and Qin Chuan didn't know where Polnareff was hiding it, so he could only use this method to make a deal with him.
Upon hearing Qin Chuan's words, Polnareff suddenly realized—it turned out that they had their eyes on the "insect arrow" in his hand.
"You used that arrow to kill Diablo, didn't you? Well then, I'll deliver Diablo to you, and you give me that arrow in return. Isn't that a good deal?"
Qin Chuan said with a smile.
"Or if you're worried that you, a disabled person, can't handle Diablo, I can kill Diablo right now to put your mind at ease."
After saying that, Qin Chuan added:
“But if I kill Diablo, you must hand over the ‘Insect Arrow’ to me within a few hours.”
After killing Diablo, Qin Chuan's main quest would be over, and he would only have a few hours of playtime left.
Once more than 8 hours have passed, even if he obtains the Insect Arrow and evolves his "Blackbird" into "Blackbird Requiem," it will be an ineffective gain and cannot be synchronized to the real world.
"Of course, this 'arrow' in my hand is prepared to take down Diablo."
Upon hearing Qin Chuan's words, Polnareff's voice trembled slightly—not out of fear, but out of excitement. He was finally about to witness the death of Diablo, the biggest mastermind behind Italy.
"No need to bring him to me, just kill him! As long as I can watch him die, this arrow in my hand is yours, and I will hand it over to you immediately!"
Qin Chuan still trusted this member of the main cast in the third installment; he wouldn't go back on his word.
"Then the negotiation is established."
Qin Chuan smiled and moved the laptop a little further away so that Polnareff could see Diavolo's full condition clearly through the laptop's camera.
Then he kicked Diablo in the lower back, and the intense pain woke Diablo up.
"Ughhhhhh...!"
Diablo screamed as his kidneys were kicked. Qin Chuan's strength was not something an ordinary person could withstand. Even though he had tried to restrain himself, it was still an indescribable pain for Diablo.
He immediately realized his situation and, without hesitation, gritted his teeth and summoned his Stand:
"Damn it... Crimson King!"
The hideous Stand reappeared, ready to erase time according to Diavolo's will and create an opportunity to escape.
But as soon as the Crimson King appeared, before he could even activate "Epitaph" to predict the future, he saw a fist coming at him.
Bang!
Diablo's head shattered instantly under Qin Chuan's punch, turning into a bloody mess of fragments like a watermelon struck by a heavy object.
Meanwhile, the head of King Crimson behind him shattered instantly—the injuries to the Stand and its user were synchronized; Diavolo's shattered head caused the Stand's head to disappear as well.
"I'm not welcome."
Before the Crimson King could dissipate, Qin Chuan sneered, and the "Black Bird" behind him stepped forward without hesitation and grabbed the headless body of the Crimson King.
It shoved itself forcefully into its shadowy body, producing a piercing, bone-crushing sound as it was swallowed.
Chapter 239 Unacquired Main Story Rewards
Because it was through a computer screen, Polnareff couldn't see the Stand's presence through the laptop's webcam.
But he saw Diavolo clearly try to summon his Stand to fight back after being kicked awake, but he didn't even have a chance to get King Crimson to activate his ability before his head was smashed.
The activation of a Stand's ability is extremely rapid, almost instantaneous—the fact that Diavolo died so tragically shows that Qin Chuan's speed of action has exceeded his speed of thought.
Indeed, even Polnareff, who was mentally prepared, didn't notice when Qin Chuan made his move.
By the time he realized what was happening, Diablo had already turned into a headless corpse lying on the ground, with red and white viscous substances splattering everywhere, looking quite terrifying.
"it is good!"
Although it was a scene that would make most people physically uncomfortable, Polnareff cheered – there was no way around it, Diavolo was a menace while alive, so it was best if he were dead.
Moreover, Polnareff was crippled to this state by Diavolo, so no matter how tragic Diavolo's death was, he would only say that the guy deserved it.
As for the scene where Qin Chuan used "Black Bird" to eat "King Crimson", Polnareff didn't see it at all - after all, cameras can't capture the appearance of a Stand.
Even among Stand users, it's impossible to see the existence of a Stand through a camera or similar means, unless, like Joseph Joestar in Part 3, the Stand transmits signals to display the images.
Seeing Diavolo's death, Polnareff even felt a pang of regret.
It wasn't that he regretted killing Diablo, but rather that he regretted letting Qin Chuan kill Diablo so easily.
I should have had Qin Chuan bring Diablo over so he could have killed him himself.
After using "Blackbird" to devour the remains of "Crimson King," Qin Chuan also gained Crimson King's abilities. Now, he can predict the future and manipulate time.
The ability to predict the future has a time limit of several tens of seconds, while the time reduction is only a dozen seconds, but in terms of length, it is longer than the ability to stop time.
After acquiring the power of King Crimson, Qin Chuan looked at the laptop screen and said to Polnareff:
"Now that Diablo is dead, as agreed, the 'Insect Arrow' is mine. Is that alright?"
"Of course, where are you now? I can come right now and give you the arrow."
The next moment, a window appeared on the laptop screen—Polnareff's face appeared in the window, it seemed that he had completely let his guard down against Qin Chuan.
Otherwise, given his previous caution, he would never have directly exposed his face to Qin Chuan.
After all, he was so cautious to prevent Diablo from discovering him, and now that Diablo is dead, there's no point in hiding it anymore.
"It would be too slow for you to come over. Just tell me where you are, and I'll come over there."
Looking at Polnareff's face, which had a semi-transparent eyepatch over its right eye, Qin Chuan shook his head.
This guy is disabled and has difficulty moving around, so it will definitely take him longer than an average person to get here. Even if he takes a plane, it will take him several hours.
If he accidentally exceeds the 8-hour playtime limit, he will not be able to gain any benefits in this world.
So it's better to go there yourself. Qin Chuan doesn't need to take a plane. Once he activates "Aura Concealment," he can fly there directly without anyone noticing.
Perhaps noticing Polnareff's puzzled expression, Qin Chuan added:
“I have a way to get there instantly, and I don’t have much time to stay here.”
"I see, is it your Stand ability?"
Polnareff probably misunderstood something, thinking that Qin Chuan's Stand ability should be able to travel instantly, so he nodded in understanding.
Since all the superpowers in this world are "Stands," Polnareff would naturally only think of Stand abilities.
He naturally had no idea that Qin Chuan could blast the Earth beneath his feet into pieces with just a single ki blast; that was beyond his imagination.
"Understood. I'm staying at this hotel in Rome. You can come directly to me; I'll be waiting for you here."
Seeing that Qin Chuan did not object, Polnareff agreed to Qin Chuan's request and sent him the address of the hotel where he was hiding.
In the original work, Polnareff was hiding in the Colosseum waiting for the main characters to arrive, but now that he hasn't met them yet, it's impossible for him to be hiding there.
Who would hide in the Colosseum all the time? The Colosseum is a tourist attraction, and people visit it occasionally. It can only be used as a meeting place during special periods.
·· ······Requesting flowers··· ·······
"Great, I'll be right there."
After obtaining Polnareff's address, Qin Chuan nodded and ended the communication with Polnareff.
Polnareff did not disappoint him; he kept his promise. Therefore, there was no need for me to use the special methods I had previously considered to force him to hand over the "Insect Arrow."
However, before going to Polnareff's place... Qin Chu first opened the prompt window that the system had already popped up once.

[Congratulations to player Kobold! You have successfully unlocked 100% synchronization in the world of JoJo's Bizarre Adventure!]
You can choose two of the following rewards to take out of this world.
1. Hirose Koichi's passport
2. Dell C400 Laptop
【3. (Not obtained)】
As expected, it was another choice of three rewards, the first two of which Qin Chuan had already encountered before.
Koichi Hirose's passport was stolen by Giorno, and Qin Chuan came into contact with it while helping them deal with Black Sabbath.
The Dell C400 laptop... is the one Qin Chuan is using; it's a new laptop that Dell just launched in 2001.
As the boss of such a large organization, Diablo naturally uses the latest laptops, and price is not an issue for him at all.
But the third option is intriguing, as it is marked "not acquired"... In other words, the third reward is something I've never encountered before?
