JJL Chapter 65

The Plant Appraiser, Part 2 (植物鑑定人 その②) is the nine hundred twelfth chapter of the JoJo's Bizarre Adventure manga. It is also the sixty-fifth chapter of JoJolion.

Summary
Josuke and Hirose are surprised to see the man they are supposed to meet on the driver's seat of their bus. The plant appraiser explains that he's talked with Norisuke and inquires about Yasuho whom he doesn't know. It is too late to separate themselves from her, as the newcomer predicts the probability of her death is she returns to Morioh to be 95.5%.

As the other passengers protest about the bus jacking and begin to call for help, the plant appraiser explains that he's taken the precaution of breaking the onboard cameras and plans to leave the bus farther away in any case. Josuke asks where he is taking them, to which the appraiser explains that someone might be spying on them right. Since Josuke was heard mentioning the appraiser, the latter was also attacked and still is.

Although the three do not seem to be trailed, the appraiser says that they are currently followed and that his protection is the top priority. Arriving at a parking lot, the man stops the bus in the middle of the lot. He invites Josuke and Yasuho to get off despite a mentioned 7.5% chance of survival and asks Josuke to stop the passengers from leaking their position, to which Yasuho answers that her Paisley Park has already erased the information, nonchalantly exiting the bus and somewhat impressing the appraiser.

Josuke asks who is the enemy, but the appraiser himself doesn't know. He specifies that this foe has slipped their way into society and that they will not stop before they have the Rokakaka. He then points at a group of trees that, strangely, are rotating and moving toward the trio, even breaking through the concrete and a bunch of rat corpses riddled with holes at their roots. The appraiser reveals that the enemy responsible for the trees has already attacked him and that is why he moved to meet up with Josuke. He then tells Josuke and Yasuho to come with him to a safer place and finally presents himself: Rai Mamezuku, 32 years old, Norisuke's personal fruit grower.
