Summary
It is the year 2001. Koichi Hirose travels to Naples, Italy, in order to find a boy named Haruno Shiobana upon Jotaro Kujo's request although Koichi doesn't know Jotaro's goal in investigating this boy.

Coming out of the airport, Koichi comes across a peculiar young man who can stuff his whole ear into its hole, and accepts a taxi ride from him. The young man then drives off with Koichi's luggage, making him use Echoes ACT3's 3 Freeze to stop the car, before the culprit confidently flees. Koichi overhears two airport security guards reveal the young man's name as Giorno Giovanna, and infers that Giorno might be Haruno Shiobana. When Koichi looks for his luggage, all he finds is a frog in the passenger's seat that hops away. He uses ACT1 to attempt to search for Giorno.

Meanwhile, Giorno meets with the gangster Leaky-Eye Luca, who attempts to take Giorno's money and attacks with his shovel. The frog appears and jumps onto Giorno, prompting Luca to attack it. His attack is reflected and he is put into a coma. Giorno reveals his Stand's ability as the frog turns back into Koichi's luggage. Koichi continues looking for Giorno and his stolen luggage, and when he finally finds him, he uses his Echoes ACT3's 3 Freeze to attack before he could escape. Giorno finally brings out his Stand, Gold Experience, and creates a tree to escape from Koichi. Koichi tries to attack, but the attempt is in vain due to Gold Experience's powers, and Giorno flees again.

After his battle against Giorno, Koichi calls Jotaro by telephone, and asks who Giorno is and what his relationship with Jotaro is. Jotaro says he is the son of DIO. Meanwhile, Giorno is riding a train, when a gangster named Bruno Bucciarati asks Giorno questions about Luca's death. Giorno lies to him and Bucciarati goes away. After, Giorno opens his hand only to find an eye enclosed, and Bucciarati reappears behind him and confirms he's lying by licking his face.
