{{nihongo|'''Secco'''|セッコ|Sekko}} is a minor[[:Category:Tertiary Antagonists|tertiary antagonist]] featured in the 5thfifth part of the ''[[JoJo's Bizarre Adventure]]'' series, ''[[Vento Aureo]]'', specifically the "[["Green Day" and "Oasis" (storyStory arcArc)|Green Day and Oasis]]" story arc.

As a member of [[Passione]] and [[Diavolo|the Boss]]' [[Unità Speciale]], Secco is dispatched along with his master [[Cioccolata]] near Rome in order to kill [[Team Bucciarati]]. He subsequently battles [[Bruno Bucciarati]] personally in the streets of Rome. Secco is a [[Stand]] Useruser and wears his [[Oasis]] as a suit to fight in person.

Little is known of Secco's appearance as he constantly wears his Stand [[Oasis]] over him, only revealing his athletic build and crooked teeth. Secco appears to be smaller than the average character (~{{cvt|170<ref name="MS">Golden Wind [[Model Sheet Archive|Model Sheet]] - [[Blu-Ray/DVDHome Video Releases|Blu-Rayray]] Volume 10 Documents</ref>|cm|ftin}} in the anime) and a lanky individual. His Stand takes the form of a wearable suit similar to that of [[Ghiaccio]]'s. He wears a constant eccentric-looking expression. Small patches of skin can be seen on the suit held together by what appears to be thread.

However, Secco's actual personality appears to be far from that of a loyal dog.

Subsequently, he demonstrates a higher intellect and understanding, showing a very curious and malevolent attitude as well as an ability to speak at length and analyze.

The anime also subtly inserts him into [[La Squadra Esecuzioni]]'s backstory by implying that he participated in the execution of [[Sorbet and Gelato]], filming the whole ordeal.

Approaching [[Mista]] and [[Bucciarati]] from underground, Secco makes the staircase they ascend sink into the ground to trigger the growth of the mold. He also makes the staircase soften and sinks in Bucciarati. When he attempts to grab him, Mista shoots at a signpost and breaks the pole, allowing the duo to cling to it as the staircase disappears. Secco goes under the streets and continues his pursuits. Secco catches up to Mista, who uses this moment to shoot him. However, Secco spits rocks to deflect the first bullets at Mista and dives before the bullets ridden by [[Sex Pistols]] can touch him. Having wounded Mista, Secco now focuses on Bucciarati. Secco follows Bucciarati's trace but suddenly exits the concrete, having been led out of the concrete by Bucciarati as the capo has run towards the beach and jumped down. Sticky Fingers pummels Secco. Taken by surprise, Secco crushes the concrete and obliges Bucciarati to counter the debris while he retreats undegroundunderground. Shocked that Bucciarati wasn't infected by the mold, Secco immediately calls Cioccolata to confirm if Green Day works on an already dead thing and explains that Bucciarati felt like a moving corpse, confusing Cioccolata. For their part, Team Bucciarati have already driven far away to Rome.

Realising that Secco is headed for the [[Colosseum]] now, [[Bucciarati]] throws a zipped post into a stela near Secco, threatening to close it on him like a jawed trap. Secco nonchalantly kicks the stela and turns Bucciarati's trap against him; Bucciarati is almost decapitated but [[Sticky Fingers]] then breaks it to cancel the trap. Secco suddenly leaps forward to chop off Bucciarati's legs, but the latter uses the pole to get out of the muddy ground then tries to kick him. Secco avoids the blow only for Bucciarati to cut his pole in two to impale Secco with it. Nonetheless, Secco swiftly deflects the pole and kicks Bucciarati into a building, breaking the window of a cafe. As Secco approaches Bucciarati, both [[Stand]] Usersusers see a faint glint coming from the Colosseum, confirming that someone is hiding in there. It is the mysterious ally, a wheelchair-bound man with binoculars who quickly retreats to the shadows. Happy to see his goal in front of him, Secco rushes to finish off Bucciarati once and for all, but then Bucciarati hides behind a large shard of smoked glass and disappears just in time to avoid Secco's punch.

Secco sees the zipper on the ground and understands that Bucciarati is going to the Colosseum from under the ground. Secco gets angry over Bucciarati copying his fighting style and then wastes precious seconds thinking that Bucciarati must resurface to inhale fresh air, only to realize that as a corpse, Bucciarati doesn't need to breathe either. Zipping the soil apart, Bucciarati has already gotten a comfortable advance on Secco, but the latter then dives in the ground, hell-bent on showing his mastery of underground battle. Secco liquefies the soil to better hear the noise Bucciarati is making while he swims faster than Bucciarati can actually move. Secco detects a sound source which is revealed to be a broken water pipe when he attacks it. However, Secco knows that Bucciarati is probably standing still near him and devises a cruel plan to root him out. Munching the stone to liquefy it, Secco then spits it with high force in the air so that the now hardened stone forms a rain of spikes that actually hit Bucciarati. The team leader's corpse is pierced in several spots and he realizes that he is trapped. Meanwhile, the man in the [[Colosseum]] is revealed to be none other than Jean Pierre Polnareff, who obtained his Arrow fourteen years ago, during his departure from Egypt after Jotaro Kujo's battle with DIO. Polnareff realizes that if Bucciarati doesn't arrive shortly, then he must destroy the Arrow; knowing about Team Bucciarati's history, Polnareff hopes for Bucciarati's victory and for the time being vows to protect the Arrow at all costs.

Meanwhile, Bucciarati is still harrassedharassed by Secco's spikes. Feeling some approaching his head, he has no choice but to make Sticky Fingers deflect them, causing the sound Secco was waiting for. Bucciarati tries to escape but hears Secco approaching. Detecting several sources, Secco realizes that Bucciarati has cut a lamp post to slow him down but is supremely confident that Bucciarati is cornered. In fact, Bucciarati notices that his own body is beginning to turn into mush because of his proximity to Secco, and his finger snaps as he tries to put his hand on his face. Alerted by the sound, Secco then throws a powerful punch, causing a shockwave that sinks a section of the Colosseum and a car into the ground. Secco is now up close and tries to punch Bucciarati, who then punches the car's tire, making it burst. The noise created by the explosion of the tire reaches Bucciarati and Secco, but while Bucciarati doesn't mind to have his eardrums destroyed since he's a corpse, Secco loses his essential hearing.

Completely disoriented, Secco attempts a blind kick but resurfaces his leg which gets crushed by a passing car. Bucciarati also resurfaces to knock out a panicking Secco but the Passione operative then takes a random boy hostage, which is shown to be [[Doppio]]. Secco orders Doppio to call for a taxi so that he can leave but Bucciarati advances and, before Secco can liquefy Doppio, punches Secco through Doppio with Sticky Fingers and attaches his arm to his chest. Panicking, Secco theninadvertently tripsmelts his own throat and stumbles painfully into the same garbage truck that Cioccolata was launched into, dooming them both to be incinerated at the local garbage-processing plant.
