Summary
To become a "Gang-Star," that is Giorno's dream. To do this he must climb the ranks of the local gang and make it to the top. Buccellati agrees to help Giorno and the two become partners.

Passione, meaning "warmth," controls the city of Naples, with drugs and gambling being it's main form of business. The Boss is unknown, giving orders through trusted subordinates. To enter the gang one must be interviewed by Polpo. Buccellati directs Giorno to a prison to meet Polpo. Giorno enters the prison, and after getting through security, heads to Polpo's cell. In the cell sits a gigantic, bulbous man that Giorno first mistakes for a bed. Polpo reveals how he has everything he could ever need inside his cell, causing Giorno to understand why he wouldn't want to leave. Polpo decides to start the interview, and then proceeds to bite off his own fingers.
