Phantom Blood
Zeppeli, after experiencing the horrors of the Stone Mask, begins his search for a means of destroying its evil once and for all. In his travels, he comes upon a man who claims to be a doctor, but uses some kind of magic to heal his patients. Realizing its potential, Zeppeli asks the doctor where he learned the Ripple. The doctor instructs him to follow the Salween (Nu) River, stating that he will eventually reach a temple.

Upon arriving at this temple, Zeppeli meets Tonpetty, the master monk, who warns him that learning to use the Ripple will lead to his demise. Nonetheless, Zeppeli accepts his destiny and begins his training. While Tonpetty has numerous disciples, Dire and Straizo are particularly notable allies who assist the Joestar Group.

Decades later, Straizo has become Tonpetty's successor and has disciples of his own. However, he eventually betrays and murders them in favor of becoming a vampire.
