Hey, rifle heads!
I'm starving!
How long are you gonna keep me waiting?
Kars!
What?
Stroheim!
Double shock!
This is weirder than meeting a ghost!
Kars!
And Stroheim, who was blown to bits back in Mexico.
Standing right in front of me!
Kars!
And Stroheim!
Now with a steel arm!
And his face is equipped with some strange mechanical contraption!
The Germans are hiding incredible medical technology.
This is all for military purposes?
So that's what brought you back from death, huh, Stroheim?
JoJo, I've come back from hell.
I can't say I'm happy he's back...
I mean, he's not exactly a bad guy, but he is an irritating bastard.
He's way too pompous.
I guess I'm sorta glad the jerk is still alive.
Make yourself comfortable on that sofa,
and watch while I take care of this.
He's glaring at me.
He knows I defeated Esidisi!
And he despises me for it!
Even so!
You think I'm gonna let you psyche me out, Kars?
JoJo...
After I take back the Red Stone...
I shall finish you.
Wamuu would fight you now, but he is in Greece.
I can't allow a Hamon-user who destroyed Esidisi to live.
Do you speak those words as a warrior?
Or are you seeking revenge, Kars?
Kars, why are you looking over there?
I, Stroheim, will be your final opponent!
No machine can stop me!
You think so?
Arms don't bend like that!
His left arm must be a prosthetic too?
And now...
He's...
Finger power level: 1950 kg/cm2
Approximately two times more powerful than Santviento
You utter fool!
German scientific ingenuity is the greatest in the world!
My arms were designed to surpass Santviento's abilities!
And so, Kars...
we've calculated exactly how many chunks of flesh
I must tear from your body to end your life.
It'll be like plucking feathers from a bird...
I'll reduce your body to tiny pieces of meat!
-Hey, JoJo! -Ouch!
Pity not this body of mine!
This being before you...
is the proud embodiment of German intellect!
I have surpassed the human race!
Take this, Kars!
I can fire off 600 rounds of armor-piercing bullets a minute!
These are reinforced bullets that can pierce 30-mm iron plating!
I'll tear you apart, one bullet at a time!
His torso is mechanical, too?
-What was that? -Downstairs!
I will take the Red Stone, no matter what!
Esidisi gave his life!
I will not let his sacrifice be in vain!
That light!
The blade attached to his arm is glowing!
I control light!
Light Blades!
Impossible!
That blade is made of hardened bone and skin!
It should be impossible for it to deflect bullets,
let alone slice up flying, armor-piercing bullets!
What is that light? Why is his blade shining?
There it is!
That sound!
Up close, Stroheim realized the secret of Kars's blade!
The blade's edge wasn't simply sharp!
It was moving at high speed!
Tiny, sharp claws like shark's teeth
slid along the outer edge of the blade!
Each claw refracted light,
making the blade look as though it were glowing!
I can't win!
Not with my weapons or any man-made technology.
I can't beat him!
And what was Santviento?
He was but an immature child!
A pathetic guard dog! He was nothing compared to us!
Now I shall have you hand over the Red Stone.
Kars!
A light so frigid it freezes your soul!
An edge so sharp it severs armor-piercing bullets!
But against that sharp blade?
There's no way I could block it bare-handed!
Even if I concentrated my Hamon into a single point,
the blade would instantly slice me in two!
I hate to say it, but I think it's time to make tracks!
He's too dangerous!
I can't think of a way around that blade!
But all that pales in comparison to Kars ending up with the Red Stone!
It'll be impossible for me to beat him
if he uses the Red Stone to transform!
Dammit!
And I've still got to get that antidote from Wamuu!
Kars has got it in for me!
Talk about an unlucky year!
The Red Stone must be in this pocket.
The Red Stone of Aja!
I have waited for 4... No, 5,000 years for this!
And now it is before me!
It was destined to fall into my hands.
Kars!
Soon enough!
Your death approaches.
That bastard...
He really does despise me!
There's no way I can let him have the Red Stone!
Kars, you fool...
Don't think you've beaten me, Stroheim, just yet...
German technology is the world's greatest!
Stroheim, you idiot! Still boasting at death's door?
Activate Ultra-Violet Ray Blast!
The Red Stone!
Hey, it's sliding down the slope!
Damn it!
The Red Stone is sliding toward the cliff!
If it falls off...
What the...
What's going on?
Kars!
JoJo, hurry up and get the Stone!
You can beat him!
He's...
He's running so fast!
That speed! It's as if he's trying to catch the Stone and dive off!
He won't stop at the edge!
Shit!
There's got to be two or three hundred meters to the bottom!
Kars could survive the fall.
But that's as high as the Empire State building!
I'd be dead if I took that dive!
He's caught up!
JoJo's planning on slowing down before he reaches the edge!
But not Kars!
JoJo can't win!
I won't let this bastard have the Stone!
Get him, JoJo!
JoJo, you're thinking of letting me grab the Stone,
and then, when I reach for it,
taking the opportunity to kick me, aren't you?
You're thinking you can attack me with Hamon,
even if the Stone falls off the cliff, aren't you?
But will your plan work, JoJo?
JoJo... He's...
Exactly right, my friend!
Here's the kick you ordered!
The Red Stone is set in a pendant! He caught it by the chain!
What's with that arrogant grin?
I'm the one who should be smirking.
I expected as much.
Perhaps you should save your silly gimmicks for another opponent.
I kicked at the snow, not you!
It was also my brake!
I didn't miss that fly ball now did I, Kars?
Enjoy the fall!
No way! His feet have sabers, too?
JoJo!
He's falling!
That blade!
Kars's blade is starting to fuse with my body!
The joke's over!
It's 175 meters to the bottom!
Five seconds until impact!
Falling with this guy?
No thanks!
Clinging Hamon!
So heavy!
Hamon flows through liquid easily, ice and snow, however, are solids!
But dripping slowly down the icicle were tiny droplets of water,
enabling Hamon to take effect!
That Stone is mine, no matter what!
That's exactly it.
It's this bastard's tenacity that scares me most!
Taking advantage of my opponents' oversights is my specialty.
But his persistence isn't helping!
He never lets his guard down!
It will be mine!
More icicles!
I've got to get this blade out first!
Wait, I can send Hamon through the blade and into him!
-Take this, Kars! -Just as I thought.
I knew you'd try sending Hamon through my blade.
Therefore...
I slam you into the cliff!
And then...
No!
He's gonna slash me with his blade!
Kars is waiting for JoJo to bounce off the wall!
JoJo can't dodge!
I'll slice you in half and pick up the Red Stone
at the bottom of this cliff!
Damn you...
There's no way you could do it!
You wouldn't chop me in half along with the Red Stone!
And now that I've used your obsession
with the Red Stone against you,
How about a Hamon kick?
Eat this, Kars!
He's using the falling icicles as a rope!
But they're falling!
There's no way he can reach!
That's why I'm lending a hand!
-Caesar! -Nice timing, eh, JoJo?
Since when do you two work so well together?
Fusing falling icicles into a rope
is a terrible idea! Only JoJo would try something like that.
I understood what he was doing immediately.
I guess you're finally thinking on my level, huh, Caesar?
What?
Nice!
Very nice, Caesarino!
If Lisa Lisa is up there, give her a message!
The Red Stone is safe!
I kept it from him!
That was close!
Hurry and pull him up, Caesar.
So, German soldier...
your body seems to be even more "immortal" than theirs.
Soldier! If your pride can stay out of the way,
we shall enjoy working with you.
JoJo, you've got some guts.
I'll let you hold onto the Red Stone for another day.
5 DAYS UNTIL RING RELEASES POISON.
So this is Switzerland's famous St. Moritz.
A winter sports wonderland, the so-called Sun Valley.
A relaxed sophistication.
The destination for the super rich.
Even the cats stroll about with elegance.
Like the plaything of some famous actress.
Aren't we fussy?
Not even a glance for a shrimp tail.
Like an elegant dame strutting the streets
without a care in the world.
Well, then...
would this smoked salmon suit your palate?
Now, now!
Looks like I've found your favorite!
Reach!
Almost there...
Just a little more...
Gotcha!
Oh? Did I scare ya?
Pompous puffball doesn't even know how to land on its own feet!
No, no.
That was mean of me.
I'm just on edge.
Only five days till the ring releases its poison.
To top it off, Kars is totally after me.
I can feel the danger closing in.
I have to relax.
I'm the one always saying not to overthink stuff.
JoJo, what are you doing?
Come! We're going to examine that building!
Yes, ma'am!
Be right there!
Esidisi addressed the package containing the Red Stone
to that location.
It appears to be an old, closed-down hotel.
A perfect hideout for Kars during the day.
The windows are all boarded up. No light's reaching inside.
Kars must be waiting for the sun to set,
and most importantly, waiting for Wamuu.
We must decide our plan.
It's obvious.
We attack now!
I agree. It's the middle of the afternoon
so Kars cannot leave the darkness of that house.
We have the advantage.
JoJo?
I...
I disagree.
It could be even more dangerous with the sun out.
Kars has lived for thousands of years like this.
He must be prepared for enemies who attack during the daylight!
What?
Breaking into his hideout
might just be our most dangerous option!
I won't go!
We'd be like helpless butterflies flying straight into a spider's web!
Come on.
JoJo, this isn't like you.
What are you afraid of?
I'm sticking with Sun Tzu's The Art of War on this one.
Fight when victory is assured!
I don't want to go in, so I won't go in!
Dammit! Are you chickening out?
Chickening out?
I'm the coolheaded one here.
I'm the only one thinking rationally!
We're better off waiting for his attack at night!
You want a sure victory?
Kars is alone. There are four of us!
We've got him outnumbered!
We have to strike now, before Wamuu arrives!
Caesar, you're fretting!
Keep your head. Calm down and think.
If we walk in there, he's the one in control!
I'm not fretting! This is the final battle!
I'm putting an end to what happened with
the Stone Mask and our grandfathers!
I'm going to massacre him!
The final battle?
Who cares about what happened to our grandfathers?
Why bring up people who died fifty years ago, you idiot!
What did you say, JoJo?
I don't give a crap about stuff I "inherited"
from an ancestor I've never met!
Only a complete moron would die for something like that!
Caesar?
How dare you, JoJo!
What are you doing, you basta--
A sucker punch, eh?
You little...
Damn you, Caesar!
Shut the hell up, JoJo!
Caesar, stop it!
You too, JoJo!
Caesar!
You bastard...
Have you lost it? You're acting like a madman!
JoJo, I thought you of all people would understand
what's at stake here.
But I was wrong!
I'm going.
Caesar, JoJo is right. It's too dangerous.
We know nothing about the layout of that hotel.
Let's wait for Kars to come out after sundown.
That's an order, Caesar.
Do not forget...
protecting the Red Stone is our first objective.
Master, forgive me.
I must disobey this once.
As you know, Master, this concerns my bloodline!
The Zeppeli bloodline!
I cannot know of Kars's whereabouts and not seek revenge for my family!
I won't just sit back and wait for him to attack!
What shall we do?
Follow him, and if he tries to enter the hotel,
stop him by force if necessary.
Caesar...why?
Why are you so grim all of a sudden?
Why can't you just wait?
JoJo, you've touched on something from his past... something secret.
Your words struck a chord where Caesar is his most vulnerable.
His hidden past?
What could it be?

I feel like I did when I was poor!
I'll use my viciousness to destroy you!
Very well. You are worthy of death at my hands!
