==Summary==
12 days, 4 hours and 33 minutes before the harvest, Jobin remembers a day at [[Morioh (JoJolion)#Morioh Stadium|Morioh Stadium]] with his father, where a disagreement over the future of the [[Higashikata Fruit Company]] led Jobin to meet [[Yotsuyu Yagiyama]] and his companions. Remembering his goals, Jobin moves to bury [[Ozon Baby]] in the family orchard. Two and a half hours later, Jobin is approached by his son [[Tsurugi Higashikata|Tsurugi]] and [[Iwasuke]]. Tsurugi asks his father about the toy house he saw the latter bury beneath the orchard. Suddenly, Tsurugi and Jobin's noses begin to bleed, and Iwasuke cries out in pain. Seeing many sealed containers being crushed outside the window, Jobin warns Tsurugi to not open the door. Tsurugi nonetheless exits the room into the garage, where he meets with Ozon Baby's misshapen true form. Before it can react, Iwasuke cries out in pain before Ozon Baby and, bleeding from all orifices including the eyes and ears, collapses. The same begins to happen to Tsurugi, and Jobin understands that he has been trapped.
It is morning at the Higashikata household. After witnessing a scene during breakfast, [[Jobin Higashikata|Jobin]] disables the camera and reminisces the first time he met the [[Rokakaka Smuggling Organization]]. During an argument with his father at the local baseball stadium, Jobin, wanting to rise in the social ladder, proposed to expand the family business, but [[Norisuke Higashikata IV|Norisuke]] refused to his frustration. It was at this moment that [[Yotsuyu Yagiyama]] first contacted him.

Atbefore the same timeharvest, [[Josuke Higashikata (JoJolion)|Josuke]] and RaiMamezuku sneakarrive intoat the orchardHigashikata estate through secreta series of underground tunnelspassages.

Emerging at the surface, Mamezuku immediately identifies the Locacaca branch and announces that in twotwelve full days, a small fruit will have grown from it.<ref>{{Ch|JJL Chapter 72}}</ref>
 
Meanwhile, Jobin is confronted by TsurugiTrapped in the garage,laundry the latter asking about Jobin's actions. Before the conversation is concludedroom, Ozon Baby begins to attack the household, and gravely injures Tsurugi and Iwasuke. Jobin realizes that Ozon Baby is an automatic Stand which will indiscriminately attack anyone in its range. Managing to bring Tsurugi back to safety, heJobin also roughly grasps the enemy's ability: Ozon Baby can decrease the air pressure in a zone, but any closed space will dampen its effects. CorneredDetermined,they Jobinset revivesthe Tsurugiorchard andon formulatesfire hisby ownusing plan, planning to use Josukeorigamis and Rai[[Speed whomKing]] heto is sure are in the garden. Forspur their part,enemies the two begin to feel the enemy's power in the tunnel, but decide to go out in theinto openaction.
 
Indeed, [[Poor Tom]] rushes into the orchard to retrieve the branch while [[Josuke Higashikata (JoJolion)|Josuke]] and [[Rai Mamezuku|Mamezuku]] go out, protected by [[Soft & Wet]]'s bubbles. They meet just as Mamezuku takes the branch and a fight ensues. Poor Tom takes out Rai and seize the branch but is poisoned by a yew seed. Pursued by Josuke, Poor Tom is bluffed into cancelling the air pressure ability, but his supposed allies from the hospital have arrived.
The whole [[Higashikata Family]] has fallen unconscious because of Ozon Baby's depressurizing the house when [[Hato Higashikata|Hato opens]] the door to the garage to check what is happening. Trapped in the shed, Jobin and Tsurugi also see that the pressure inside their room is increasing, surely reaching lethal levels in several minutes. The father and son thus decide to boldly set the orchard on fire in order to push Josuke and his appraiser in the open, as well as call Poor Tom to draw him to the orchard. The Rock Human indeed rushes to the Higashikata's.
 
Surprisingly, Poor Tom is killed by a [[Wonder of U|mysterious ability]] shooting through his head. An unseen person seizes the branch and drives away before Josuke can do anything. However, it is revealed that Tsurugi used [[Paper Moon King]] into tricking everyone: an ordinary branch has been fought over while Jobin stole the real Locacaca branch. They hide the branch, grafted into a cactus. Meanwhile, the ambulance driver discovers the trick and guesses that the arsonist is the one who has the branch.
Pushed into action by the fire, Josuke and Rai open the hatch, surrounded by great protective bubbles. Rai alone goes to extract the branch but he unexpectedly meets Poor Tom. Taking a split second decision, Rai both tries to cut off the branch and take it, but also strangles Tom with his other arm, planning to break his neck.
 
Finally, Josuke returns to Mamezuku, revealed to be alive and slowly reconstituting himself. Desperate, Josuke can only observe his total loss.<ref>{{Ch|JJL Chapter 73}} to {{Ch|JJL Chapter 76}}</ref>
A brief flashback narrates the youth of Rai Mamezuku. Rai's parent had managed to grow prized pears but their growing techniques were leaked. Thus a competitor stole the pears and ravaged their orchard, forcing the parents to part with their land. Furious and blaming his parents for their mistakes, Rai lived in his mountain slope and grew his own fruits here despite the climate. He eventually met Norisuke, who hired him in secret.
 
In the now, Rai tries to kill of Poor Tom, but touching the Rock Human is revealed to be a grave mistake. The pressure inside the bubble dramatically increases because of that, and Rai begins to be gruesomely crushed by the air. Josuke intervenes, shooting several poisonous yew seeds from afar with bubbles. Rai and Josuke manage to make Tom swallow one seed. Unfortunately, Tom uses a knife sheath to encase part of Rai's wire inside it, causing the pressure to skyrocket again. Rai dies from his injuries and crumbles into a pile of wires.
 
Poor Tom seizes the branch, but the poison begins to take effect. Crawling away from Josuke, who pursues him despite the pressure in his own bubble increasing as he approaches the Rock Human, Tom hears the sirens of an ambulance and fire truck, and guesses that his allies are probably here to pick him up. Motivated by Holy's sake and Rai's sacrifice, Josuke launches a multi-layered bubble containing another yew seed. The structure allows the bubble to pursue Poor Tom and catch up to him, exploiting the pressure to pop one layer at a time. Unable to run, Tom is finally cornered by the bubbles as the ambulances appear into view.
 
The multilayered bubble inexorably approaches Poor Tom despite his attempts to flee or pop the bubble and his pleas. At it flies into his face, Poor Tom finally relents and cancels his Ozon Baby to avoid the bubble popping the poisonous seed into his mouth. However, it is revealed that there was nothing inside and that Josuke bluffed Poor Tom into cancelling his ability. Desperate, Poor Tom flees toward the ambulance supposedly hiding his allies, and cries out that he has the branch. Suddenly someone shoots Tom twice in the head, killing him, and a mysterious unseen figures emerges from the ambulance to take the branch. Josuke is unable to catch up to the ambulance.
 
Meanwhile, Jobin and Tsurugi declare their victory, as Paper Moon King tricked Tom into taking the wrong branch, leaving it ripe for the taking. Grafting the Rokakaka branch into a ferocactus, Jobin plans to cultivate it and tells Tsurugi to keep the branch a secret. For their part, Tom's mysterious companions see that he has been tricked and deduce that whoever started the fire in the orchard must have somehow stolen the Rokakaka. Finally, Josuke returns to Rai, revealed to be alive and slowly reconstituting himself. Desperate, Josuke can only observe his total loss.
