▲{{Nihongo|'''''Narancia's Aerosmith'''''|ナランチャのエアロスミス|Narancha no Earosumisu}} is the eighth story arc in ''[[Vento Aureo]]''.
 
It narrates the battle between a slowly -shrinking [[Narancia Ghirga]] and [[Formaggio]], an assassin from [[La Squadra Esecuzioni]] looking for [[Trish Una]], the [[Diavolo|Bossboss]]'s [[Trish Una|daughter]].
 
==Summary==
[[Pericolo]] explains that around two months ago, a woman named [[Donatella Una|Donatella]] died of an illness. Before she died, she expressed her last wish: to see her lover, Solid Naso, one last time. However, Solid Naso never existed, having been nothing more than an alias for [[Diavolo|the boss]]. After learning of his daughter's existence, the boss sent [[Pericolo]] to retrieve her and put her into hiding. Pericolo reveals that [[Squadra Esecuzioni|a group within the gang]] are planning to kidnap Trish and learn the boss's identity, and thus [[Bruno Bucciarati|Bucciarati]] must stop them at all costs. It is not lost on [[Giorno Giovanna|Giorno]] that this mission could be his only chance to learn the boss's identity. Meanwhile, [[Formaggio|one of the enemy group's members]] targets Bucciarati, having learned of [[Polpo]]'s death from his associates.<ref>{{Ch|Chapter 469}}</ref>
Narancia Ghirga is dispatched on a shopping mission, during which [[Formaggio]], a member of [[Squadra Esecuzioni]], accosts him. Formaggio, appearing in the seat of Bucciarati's rental car, rambles on about how after Polpo's death Bucciarati's group disappeared as well as other nonsense. Narancia is lulled into a false sense of security, giving Formaggio the opportunity to attack with his Stand, [[Little Feet]]. Narancia stumbles backwards and Formaggio demands to know why Bucciarati’s group didn’t attend Polpo’s funeral. Narancia calls out his Stand, [[Aerosmith]], a miniature fighter plane. It begins shooting at Formaggio, who is still in the backseat of the car. Formaggio is surprised that Narancia is a Stand user, while Narancia states he will finish his assignment and not let Formaggio follow him.

A flashback details Narancia's past. Narancia's [[Mela Ghirga|mother]] died when he was ten, leaving him in the care of his neglectful [[Narancia's Father|father]]. Narancia soon quit going to school, instead preferring to hang around with his friends and steal food for his meals. One day, a friend told him to dye his hair blonde so they would match; after doing exactly that, Narancia was arrested and thrown into a juvenile detention center, having been framed for murder. After Narancia was released from the detention center, his friends abandoned him, causing him to lose his will to live.
Narancia calls forth Aerosmith to shoot down the doors and one of the payphones to get coins of the right size to make the phone call. When he dials the number, he realizes the phone line has been cut. He curses Formaggio and summons Aerosmith to find him. Formaggio, still hiding in his pocket, is surprised when Narancia finds him. He uses Little Feet to make a pen grow back to its normal size, launching him into the air and to safety. Realizing that Aerosmith is still tracking him, he tries to escape and ends up hanging from a sewer grate. Formaggio eventually realizes that Aerosmith tracks him by the carbon dioxide he breathes out and tries to escape by holding on to one of the many rats in the sewer. However, Narancia notices that one of the rats is breathing harder than the rest and shoots at it, wounding Formaggio. However, because of Narancia’s ever decreasing size, Aerosmith's attack was not enough to kill him.
 
While scrounging for food in the trash, Narancia was spotted by a young man named [[Pannacotta Fugo]]. Fugo brought the young boy to a nearby restaurant, where [[Bruno Bucciarati]] handed him an order of pasta. Afterward, Bucciarati brought Narancia to a hospital, where his eye infection was gradually cured. As per Bucciarati's wishes, Narancia returned home to his father and began attending school once more. However, he secretly met the operative [[Polpo]] half a year later, and thus joined [[Passione|Bucciarati's organization]].
Narancia decides he needs to hide before he can attack anymore. As he reaches an alley and climbs on a cartons of bottles, Narancia finds himself being washed off the bottles as a full-sized Formaggio empties a can of beer over him. Formaggio steps on Narancia and demands he tell him where Trish is. Narancia refuses. Formaggio recalls the fate that befell Sorbet and Gelato, and becomes angry. Taking out a spider he found in the sewers, he threatens Narancia with it, using Little Feet to grab hold of Aerosmith and forcing Narancia into the bottle with the spider. Narancia ignores Formaggio's threats and attacks the spider, stabbing it with a shard of glass, only to realize the spider had attached some webbing to him. As the spider bites Narancia and begins to wrap him up. Formaggio notices a map that Narancia had dropped earlier, which reveals Trish's location. Formaggio laughs and says Narancia has marked all the roads, so he will just follow it in reverse. Narancia then reveals that he had shot a hole in the gas tank of a nearby car, and was waiting for it to catch fire. The car explodes, lighting Formaggio on fire, and Narancia returns to his regular size.
 
Narancia decides to contact Bucciarati to warn him about the assassin. Though he is too light to activate the automatic doors, he calls forth Aerosmith to shoot them open.<ref>{{Ch|Chapter 472}}</ref> Narancia attempts to use one of the phones inside, but realizes the line has been cut, and summons Aerosmith once more. Seconds later, he grabs Formaggio, having found the assassin within his pocket. However, Formaggio escapes by restoring a pen to its normal size, launching him into the air and to safety.<ref>{{Ch|Chapter 473}}</ref> Formaggio tries to run away, eventually escaping into the sewers; coming to the realization that Aerosmith tracks the carbon dioxide he exhales, Formaggio uses a rat to mask his breathing. Narancia sees through the ruse and attacks Formaggio, but the latter grows just in time to minimize the injuries from a still-shrinking Narancia.<ref>{{Ch|Chapter 474}}</ref>
Formaggio uses his own blood to douse the fire on his body and shrinks himself to escape. Narancia can’t track him because of all the carbon dioxide being released by the burning car. He decides that since he can’t track Formaggio, he’ll just make the fire bigger, and starts shooting at all the cars on the street. Formaggio returns to his normal size, but is badly burned. He claims that at close range, Formaggio has an advantage because of Little Feet's greater speed. Both call forth their Stands and attack but Aerosmith is faster and shoots Little Feet's vital spots, killing Formaggio.
 
Narancia attempts to hide, only to be confronted by Formaggio. Now towering over the boy, Formaggio steps on Narancia and demands to know Trish's location. As the narrator reveals, Formaggio's question is rooted in a personal grudge: two of his group's members, [[Sorbet and Gelato]], were gruesomely killed by the boss himself. When Narancia refuses to answer, Formaggio pulls out a spider he found in the sewers.<ref>{{Ch|Chapter 475}}</ref> As Little Feet immobilizes Aerosmith, Formaggio forces Narancia into a bottle with the spider. As the spider bites Narancia and begins to wrap him up, Formaggio notices a map that Narancia had dropped, detailing his route and thus his team's hideout. However, Narancia reveals that he shot a hole in the gas tank of a nearby car, and had been waiting for it to catch fire. The car explodes, lighting Formaggio on fire and reverting his ability. At last, Narancia returns to his normal size.<ref>{{Ch|Chapter 476}}</ref>
 
Formaggio uses his own blood to douse the fire on his body and shrinks himself to escape. Narancia summons Aerosmith, but can't track him on account of the carbon dioxide released by the car's flames. Formaggio gloats about his escape, unintentionally revealing to Narancia his group's status as assassins. Narancia begins wildly shooting at all the cars on the street, cornering Formaggio and badly burning him. Formaggio returns to his normal size, having closed in on Narancia beneath the flames. Though Little Feet's greater speed gives it an advantage at close range, Aerosmith shoots Little Feet before it can reach him. A dying Formaggio warns Narancia that the worst is yet to come; Narancia then notices that his wallet and supplies have both burned up as a result of the battle.<ref>{{Ch|Chapter 477}}</ref>
