I knew he was crazy, but...
Straizo! Shall I bash your head in?
How about a healthy dose of sunlight? Some Hamon?
I'll let you take your pick before I erase you for good.
He's a murderer!
Help! He'll kill us all!
JoJo, what have you done?
Yeah, fixing this place up will cost a pretty penny.
No! You just shot a man!
A man?
You mean Straizo?
What's going on?
My bullets all have these strange dents in them.
Smokey, get outside!
In fact, I hope he's human.
Then they can send me to the slammer for this.
What are you saying?
Everyone calm down! I can't hear!
If you don't get the hell out,
I'll stick my tongue in your mouth to shut you up!
EPISODE 11: "THE GAME MASTER"
What in the... So this is a vampire!
Dio ultimately failed because he became too enamored with his own abilities.
He played with his powers to see how far he could go.
He opened himself up to attack, and Jonathan made his move.
But I am different.
I'll find the extent of my powers after I've destroyed you.
I, Straizo, will show you no mercy!
And I'll start with the technique that Dio used to kill Jonathan!
Out of ammo?
I can fire high-pressure fluid from my eyes.
It's what I call "Space Ripper Stingy Eyes"! Take this, Joseph!
JoJo!
Piddling fool.
Now only Erina Joestar remains.
And...
Now you'll say, "Easier than smothering a baby."
Then you'll say, "How can he be alive after I put those holes in his head?"
How can he be alive after I put those holes in his head?
Looks like you spent a little too long in the hinterlands of Tibet.
A few more trips to the city would've toughened you up.
You could've won if you had been paying better attention.
Take a good look at the face of that clock!
I heard Gramps was taken down by some strange beam fired from Dio's eyes.
A mirror?
Too late, Straiz-oaf!
And you're just as weak to Hamon as you are to the sun!
I'll knock you out of the park!
Shoot!
Let's see. I hear Hamon melts vampire faces.
Now we find out.
no melting there!
It's like nothing happened!
Was Granny wrong?
I knew you'd grow into a deadly foe
if left unchecked for too long.
And now, a snippet of wisdom for you before you croak.
This scarf was woven from the dried intestinal fibers of
30,000 Satiporoja beetles,
an insect native to Southeast Asia.
It conducts and disperses Hamon far better than the human body.
Think of it as a lightning rod.
I am Straizo, successor to 4,000 years of Hamon history.
I know its strengths and weaknesses. You are fighting an expert!
I am not Dio!
Wow, that's really something!
But do you really think I'd rely on this Hamon thing alone?
I'm also speedy as hell!
He planted a grenade on my scarf! How?
Hmph! A silly trick!
I told you you should've spent some time in the city!
Take a look at the grenade you knocked away!
You son of a...
Got him!
What the hell is he?
Smokey, look away!
Too late!
Oh God! I promise I'll never ever commit any wrong again!
No stealing... no pickpocketing! Please save me!
He's a monster.
Do you have a way to beat a monster like this, JoJo?
Sure do.
Really? You do?
Yeah, there's one last thing I haven't tried.
One last thing? Well what?
The ace up my sleeve!
Look at his legs.
They were blown to smithereens and haven't healed yet.
That's our ticket.
And the plan?
I'll use my own legs.
Use your legs? How?
To hotfoot it out of here! Let's go, Smokey!
Outta the way!
I can't believe this guy!
Follow me, Straizo!
Wait up, JoJo!
I may be immortal,
but it will take great energy to regenerate my shattered body.
All right! What a scoop! The papers will eat this up!
Get ready world! Here comes my reporting debut!
Potential fingertip thrust: 235 kg/cm2
Potential jump height: 4.22 m
Something behind me?
We should be safe now, right?
I'm afraid not, Smokey. Listen.
Listen to what?
Oh, the river?
Wrong! Look up!
Help!
He's after us! Run for it!
This woman is my hostage!
If you run, she dies!
If you climb up here, I'll let her go.
What are you thinking?
I don't even know that woman, moron!
Let's run, JoJo!
I'm testing you!
If you abandon this woman and flee, I'll know what sort of man you are.
My body has reached exhaustion and cannot pursue you.
I know you would not seek revenge for Speedwagon.
But if you climb up here to save her,
you will have proven your character!
You would pose a great threat to me in the future.
That is why I shall use all of my remaining power
to destroy you here and now!
In five seconds, I will kill her!
Will you run or climb? The decision is yours!
Give me a break! It's not like we're in love!
Besides, why would I fight you for that ugly chick?
I'll kill her by grabbing her lower jaw and ripping it down from her mouth.
I'll keep pulling, twisting, and tearing
until I disgorge her throat, chest, and everything attached.
As if the great successor to the Tibetan Hamon
would ever sink to such a cruel low?
Her molar! That's her molar!
That bastard! He really yanked it out!
I, Straizo, will show no mercy!
You son of a...
Straizo!
You'll pay for that!
You're inhuman to the core!
Ah, so the cool kid finally reveals his fiery temper!
I'll rip you to pieces, Straizo!
Try this on for size!
I can beat that move now!
I won't fall for that same old trick!
Hamon!
Im--
"Impossible," you say?
Impossible!
I deflected your beam with Hamon glass!
I knew you'd aim for my forehead.
It was easy to intercept.
Apologize to Speedwagon in hell!
You'll sleep soundly tonight, Granny.
Why did you stop me from falling?
I might still have enough power to instantly blast away your right arm.
Do it, then! I'm ready to jab you into oblivion with my left!
I have just one question.
Why did you throw Speedwagon and the others into the river?
Something's fishy.
Joseph, the blood of your grandfather, Jonathan, flows strongly within you.
You appear to be opposites,
but you share an insatiable thirst for mystery and adventure.
And now I shall warn you that nature has
drawn you into a destiny you cannot escape.
What do you mean?
Soon you will learn of him... the Pillar Man.
Soon you will meet him... the Pillar Man!
Don't feed me any of your nonsense!
I threw the bodies into the river because of him.
The pillar in the cave began to feed on
the blood of the bodies that surrounded it...
like a plant absorbing nutrients.
It was ghastly.
So I dragged the bodies outside and into the river.
He will surely awaken soon... from his 2,000-year slumber.
Joseph, you will soon meet him.
Soon, you will discover his identity
and the true meaning of biological evolution.
Your destiny is already written!
He's using Hamon breathing!
Which means he's building up Hamon inside his body!
I regret nothing.
Now I go to hell gladly,
relishing my momentary and glorious victory over the feebleness of old age.
Being young again was my bliss!
Straizo, wait! I need to know more!
Farewell, JoJo!
JoJo...
It was 1938, and the Second World War was beginning to entangle the world.
The German army sought to conquer all.
Their weapons were cutting-edge.
They looked to astrology, magic, alchemy, ESP, and the occult.
Every tool available was employed in their bid for world domination!
Meanwhile, word of Straizo's efforts
had already reached the German information post in Mexico.
I'm terribly sorry, Major von Stroheim!
My hand slipped!
Lick it.
You were the one who cut me, right? So sooth my wound with your tongue.
Yes, sir.
Don't hurt me, now. Gently.
Slowly.
Ahh, I think the pain is just about gone now.
Oh no! Watch out!
You'll cut yourself!
Pardon me, Major von Stroheim!
The old man we found on the bank of the Rio Dada is now conscious.
We can question him about the location of the ruins!
Are you all right? What's your name?
Let me escort you home.
What was that for?
How dare you call me an "ugly chick"?
That punch was payback, jerk!
Did I...
You did. Something about not fighting for some ugly chick.
Seriously?
Well, that's odd! But you're so pretty.
How strange!
Yowch!
You can't even remember your own words?
You bitch...
Her fear had been masking the pain.
But the thought of that Pillar Man Straizo mentioned is bugging me.
Guess it's time to visit Mexico!
How are you feeling, Speedwagon?
We have a saying in Europe:
"A town where the old kill themselves is soon to fall."
It seems you're hiding a very dangerous secret indeed.
Might it be about him?
I brought him here after you divulged the location of the cave!
God, how has it come to this? Why didn't I die?
Why have you kept me alive?
You're mistaken, Speedwagon.
I, Stroheim, am the one who has kept you alive.
And the German army made you talk!
We know you are not one to break under torture even in your old age.
You ventured alone and penniless to Texas where,
on death's door, you discovered an oil field in the desert.
Now you influence the world economy.
But German medical ingenuity is unparalleled!
We can achieve anything!
A truth serum?
What more do you want from me?
Everything! Tell us everything!
Tell us about the past! About Straizo! About Joestar!
Tell us so we can awaken the Pillar Man!
No! You don't understand anything!
He could destroy the world!
Prepare the bloodletting experiment to feed the Pillar Man.
I expect perfection!
-Help us! -I don't want to die!
I have a proposal.
Designate one amongst yourselves for execution.
We need blood for an experiment.
The lot of you must choose who will be the one to die.
The rest of you will be freed today.
I volunteer.
If I die, you'll save the rest of 'em, right?
Excellent, young man.
I have respect for men of courage like you.
Only the excellent should survive.
Execute everyone except the boy!
Let the experiment begin!
NEXT EPISODE
Don't be too proud! He's dangerous!
I've brought you some tequila.
You. Who among you disturbed my slumber?
He's in the ventilation ducts!
