{{Nihongo|'''THEThe Hustle'''|{{Ruby|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]]''.

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

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

THEThe 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 Joestar|Jodio]] describes Paco's muscles as being similar to when people tense up their muscles to trap mosquitoes sucking blood.<ref name="TJL1">{{Ch|TJL Chapter 1}}</ref> For example, he is capable of trapping his enemy's limbs<ref name="TJL4">{{Ch|TJL Chapter 4}}</ref> or weapons<ref name="TJL10">{{Ch|TJL Chapter 10}}</ref> in his muscles.

*For the early serialized publication history, the Stand's name has been inconsistently written. The first mention in [[TJL Chapter 1|chapter 1]] lists the name as {{nihongo|THE Hustle|{{Ruby|THE|ザ}}ハッスル|Za Hassuru}}, with "THE" written in capitalized English in all caps with a {{w|furigana}} reading guide and "Hustle" written in Japanese katakana. In the summary pages featured in ''[[Ultra Jump]]'' for chapters [[TJL Chapter 2|2]] through [[TJL Chapter 6|6]], the Stand's name is instead written as {{Nihongo|"The Hustle"|{{Ruby|The|ザ}}ハッスル|Za Hassuru}}, with "The" not written in all caps but "Hustle" still presented in katakana. In one panel of [[TJL Chapter 4|chapter 4]], the Stand's name is written entirely in English in all caps as {{Nihongo|type1=J|{{Ruby|THE HUSTLE|ザ ハッスル}}}}, with the furigana reading guide. As of [[TJL Chapter 7|chapter 7]] and the release of [[TJL Volume 1|volume 1]] of the collected tankōbon paperbacks, the Stand's name has been returned to the original typography as featured in the first serialized chapter.
