Must move... arm...
before Hamon reaches brain!
Before it...
Master Dio!
If only he had a new body.
According to the December 4, 1888 edition of The London Press,
"73 people went missing overnight in Windknight's Lot,
a small town in the hills of 452 people.
Investigators think one man's findings may be related to the case.
Four outsiders were seen burning a man's clothing at the cliff's base.
One of them was seen smashing
a strange stone mask with a hammer."
Our work is done!
EPISODE 9: "THE FINAL RIPPLE!"
Joestar heir Jonathan Joestar weds
Erina, only daughter of the Pendletons!
Now off to America for the honeymoon!
Crikey!
The time!
They're about to depart!
Hey!
Mr. Speedwagon!
You nearly missed them!
Sorry, sorry! So where are they?
They're already on board.
It's about to set sail.
What?
Where can I see them?
Father Styx...
we expect much from your mission to Mexico.
I shall do my best.
Mr. Joestar! Where are you?
Yer in the way! Move along!
Damn thing's heavy! What the hell's inside?
Haven't a clue!
All I know is the Asian fellow holds the cash!
Hey. Did you guys hear that?
Just shut up and load this thing on board!
We don't get paid till the job's done!
Ouch! Morons!
Mr. Speedwagon!
Look! There they are!
Hey!
Mr. Joestar!
It's bloody beautiful!
Your happiest years await!
I'll always be there for you two.
Whatever you need, I won't be far behind!
Even if I do get in the way...
Mr. Joestar!
Bon voyage!
- EN ROUTE TO AMERICA, ATLANTIC OCEAN -
A lone bird, separated from its flock...
Erina...
Is everything all right?
Why are you crying?
These are tears of joy.
Because I'm here with you.
Back then, you knew the bullying would only get worse
if your identity became known.
And yet, you revealed that handkerchief embroidered with your name.
With the noble Jonathan Joestar in my arms, I couldn't be happier.
I think the same of you.
When my heart was lonely and cold, you were the one who warmed my soul.
I'd do anything to protect the world you live in.
I wish Father could have met you.
Erina, now we must dine!
Jonathan!
I was about to tell you to watch your head.
I wish today could last for all eternity.
Blast! I dropped my crucifix into that filthy engine room.
I'd leave it, but it's my bread and butter.
Heavenly Father on high...
Why must you always place me in these sticky situations?
I mustn't. I've never had alcohol.
Try a little. Just a sip. It's not that strong.
Give it a taste.
Here.
You're...
Jonathan?
No!
There's no way...
Dio is... alive...
Erina, return to our room, and don't forget to lock the door!
What an odd trunk! And it's unlocked.
Even stranger, that latch inside is shiny.
That means... the trunk is locked from the inside!
Stop!
You're...
My body appears to have arrived.
Dio!
Jonathan wasn't himself. Something's wrong.
JoJo, look. See what has become of me.
I come before you in this state for a reason.
Why would I bare such frailty, you ask?
Because, JoJo, though I once despised you, I now respect you.
I respect your courage, your spirit and your power.
I realize that now.
Dio!
JoJo...
If it weren't for you,
I never would have obtained the mask's power.
But also because of you, the world has slipped from my grasp.
If there is a god who controls fate,
then there could be no relationship better designed than ours.
We are one and the same.
I will take the body of the only man I respect
and live in eternal glory!
This is my destiny!
You shall feel no pain. That is my final favor to you!
His eyes! No!
Live on as my body, JoJo!
Jonathan!
Jonathan...
Eri... na...
What a pity.
If only you had held still, you could have died a painless death.
Now your fairy tale has become a horrific hell.
You must be confused, speechless.
Did JoJo not speak of me,
the mythical inhabitant of the underworld?
I wasn't always like this. Surely you remember me, Erina Pendleton.
Or should I say, Mrs. Erina Joestar...
Dio!
The ship's overrun with monsters!
As you ordered, I drank the blood of one passenger,
and now nearly every person on board is one of us!
Now on to America, isn't that correct, Master Dio?
I can't speak.
Worse yet, I can't breathe.
Erina!
I have to save...
I can't use my Hamon.
Behold, Master Dio!
The sniveling brat can't breathe!
He'll cause no mischief with Hamon now!
This is what he gets for crossing you, Master Dio.
Now it's time to have some fun.
Or shall we wait a few minutes and watch him suffocate?
Listen, Wang Chan!
I'll tolerate no insult to JoJo!
He is the man who brought me to my current state.
Give him his due respect by painlessly severing his head.
Yes, Master Dio.
And now your body shall become my future, my friend.
Jonathan!
He's up to something! Keep your distance!
He might have one last trick up his sleeve!
No need to worry! Surely Master Dio overestimates him!
I'll scoop out what little brains you have with my fingers!
Must... save Erina.
My last bit of Hamon... I must gather everything, and fire.
I don't need much!
Look out, Wang Chan!
I felt a tear. Something inside me just split.
No!
This... This is the end.
The last Hamon of my life...
I'm too weak to obliterate that zombie,
but it was enough.
What the...
JoJo must have done something to Wang Chan's body!
The Hamon isn't destroying his body, just disrupting its functions!
He's clinging to the machinery, as if someone's controlling him!
He's trying to stop...
the ship's paddle screw shaft!
A zombie has the strength to stop the shaft!
If the shaft stops, the steam inside the pistons can't escape!
And if the pressure continues to build,
the ship will explode!
Oh, Jonathan.
How could this have happened?
Run, Erina.
I'm going to blow up the ship.
I'm so confused...
This is all too much.
I don't know whether I should cry or scream.
Or perhaps I should simply faint.
There is one thing I can say for sure.
I, Erina Joestar...
will die with you.
From the warmth of these lips, alas, I feel the touch of death.
Jonathan Joestar is dying.
To be with you like this forever is all I desire.
Even when this ship explodes and everything bursts into flames.
Even when everything is gone.
It's all right to cry.
But you... have to keep living.
Your words are too valiant.
You want me to save this baby and escape?
But to me, your heroism is cruelty.
My only wish is to die with you.
That woman died to save her child.
My mother did the same for me.
Take the baby.
Hurry!
You plan to destroy the entire ship?
JoJo, you truly fight to the bitter end!
And so do I!
I will live on! Nothing will stop me!
Together with your body!
Zombies!
Devour Wang Chan's body and restart the piston!
The explosion... it begins.
Jonathan!
The explosion has begun!
I must protect myself from the sun at all times!
So I am already prepared in the event of an explosion!
Erina, look closely!
Now that JoJo can no longer use Hamon, I can safely take over his body!
Then I will retreat to my bedroom, that chest beside you!
It's my one-man shelter,
built to withstand the blast of several barrels of TNT!
Here I come, JoJo!
I hope you take a liking to being my eternal host!
Jonathan!
Dio...
As you said, maybe we are one and the same.
I feel a strange friendship between us.
Our lives have become one.
And they will vanish with this ship.
Be happy...
Erina.
Let go, JoJo!
Let go of me! You must reconsider!
Have you no desire to live forever?
I can heal your wounds! You can live forever with Erina, JoJo!
JoJo?
He... He's...
He's dead.
FEBRUARY 7TH, 1889: THE DAY OF JONATHAN JOESTAR'S DEATH
Jonathan Joestar's life disappeared into oblivion,
its place in history unknown to the world.
His noble accomplishments will remain an untold story.
But not to his descendants.
A new life had awakened within me.
A life that will know his story.
Two days later, Erina Joestar was rescued
from the waters near the Canary Islands.
And for a time, the tale of the stone mask had come to an end.
But a new adventure was about to begin.
