The Living Statue is the forty-sixth chapter of the JoJo's Bizarre Adventure manga. It is also the second chapter of Part II: Battle Tendency.

Summary
Speedwagon shows Strazo that inside the pyramid, there are many stone masks much like the one Dio used, and above all else a man cast into a stone pillar. The writing on the wall makes it appear that the man could be the creator of the masks. Speedwagon asks Straizo to destroy the creature before it wakes up, but Straizo attacks Speedwagon unexpectedly, declaring that the power of the Ripple cannot give eternal life. Envying Dio's capabilities and determined to get his youth back, Straizo announces that he must wear the Stone Mask.
