“
DO the HUSTLE
”

The Hustle (THE(ザ)ハッスル, Za Hassuru) is the Stand of Paco Laburantes, featured in the ninth part of the JoJo's Bizarre Adventure series, The JOJOLands.

The Hustle grants Paco expert control over musculature, enabling him to strengthen himself, and hold objects using the muscles anywhere on his body.

Appearance

The Hustle manifests as an integrated ability for Paco, typically appearing as his muscles bulging out or vibrating.

Abilities

Paco hanging from a ceiling vent

Prehensile Muscles

The Hustle morphs Paco's muscles to bulge and be able to grab onto things, such as with the backs of his hands or his elbows. He can easily swipe objects such as wallets without even needing to move the joints in his fingers. Jodio describes Paco's muscles as being similar to when people tense up their muscles to trap mosquitoes sucking blood.[1] For example, he is capable of trapping his enemy's limbs[2] or weapons[3] in his muscles.

The Stand allows Paco to be versatile with his movements, as he can hang from a ceiling vent or climb a tree using his back muscles.[2][4] He can also grab an object such as a chair with his back and throw it at the enemy without using his hands.[3]

Vibrating Muscles

Inflating the muscles of Charming Man

The precise control The Hustle gives Paco over his musculature allows him to vibrate his muscles independently. He is first seen demonstrating this ability when trapped by Cat Size's wires, as he uses a scissor blade that he manages to wedge between the wire and his ankle and vibrates his muscles to saw through it.[2] The vibration also appears to increase his physical strength, as he announces "Do the HUSTLE" before he begins to vibrate his muscles in the fight against Charming Man.[3]

Paco can also transfer this muscular vibration onto other people through physical contact, either directly with the target or with an object held by the target. He can use it to protect his allies by controlling their muscles to bulge, such as when he lightly punches Jodio's back to bulge his neck muscles and prevent a deep knife wound. The Hustle can also cause its target's muscles to begin to unnaturally convulse and expand, immobilizing the affected area. This is demonstrated in the fight with Charming Man, where Paco grabs onto the blade of Charming Man's knife with the back of his forearm before he punches his own arm, sending the muscle vibrations through the knife's blade and through Charming Man's hand and forearm.[3]
