Summary
As Crazy Diamond attacks Killer Queen, Okuyasu exclaims that Kira was in front of them the whole time, under the guise of Kosaku Kawajiri. Josuke then says that it has to be more than a coincidence that this happened, and that Hayato must have done something, as Josuke was oblivious to the effects of Bites the Dust. Kira then proclaims that he switched identities with Kosaku not because he was fleeing from the Joestar Group, but because he wanted to enjoy a quiet life again. He then goes on to say that he could have killed them all any any given time, but didn't, simply because he doesn't have a taste for battle. As this goes on, Rohan, Jotaro, and Koichi look on from a distance.

This only serves to enrage Josuke and Okuyasu, as Josuke exclaims that they are chasing Kira down as revenge for Shigechi. Kira then stands up, proclaiming that he must fight and kill anyone who knows his identity, and those that threaten his tranquility. Josuke then launches an attack with Crazy Diamond, only to retreat and kick Killer Queen when it gets too close to touching Josuke. Killer Queen, now outstretched on the ground, lunges for Josuke's leg in order to charge it as a bomb, only for The Hand to cut away the space in front of it. Hayato then realizes that Stray Cat isn't in his backpack anymore, and that Kira has charged an air bubble as a bomb. Okuyasu then goes into shock as the right side of his torso is vaporized due to one of Kira's new 'Air Bombs'. Okuyasu then falls down, bleeding out ferociously as Kira boasts that the entire reason he was raising Stray Cat in the attic was due to it's ability to control the air around it, and that luck really did always side with him, as in this time loop, Hayato brought Stray Cat with him in his backpack.
