It is a short-range humanoid Stand that can store heat in the locations it touches. ==Appearance== Speed King has a humanoid appearance. It possesses a mannequin-like body and a human-like face with holes for eyes (later depicted as goggles) and a flat raised surface resembling a nose, as well as a fisherman's cap with ~~two~~several metal ~~horns~~spikes ~~with~~along the brim and various strings of equal length sticking out from both sides. It has two large horns on each side of its head, a wide mouth, bearing gritted teeth along with pores and bumps over its 'skin'. It appears to have robotic joints across its arms, and a flat chest covered in pores and bumps similar to its face (earlier depicted with a fur-like texture covering the chest). Speed King's body becomes very skeletal and robotic below chest-level, lacking much of an abdomen and instead having metal bars and other apparatuses connecting it to its lower body. ====Color Schemes==== {{CS \|bg={{Color\|JJL}} \|{{Palette\|Body\|#F2834B\|desc=Orange}} {{Palette\|Eyes\|#FD585C\|desc=Rose red}} {{Palette\|Hat\|#CD1E0B\|#F1B04C\|desc=Crimson hat with saffrom brim}} }} ==Abilities== Little is known about Speed King's abilities but it is clear that its heat powers are lethal at both close and long range. Speed King is shown to be physically able enough to rapidly pummel enemies,<ref name="JJLC73">{{Ch\|JJL Chapter 73}}</ref> but the extent of its power is never revealed. '''Heat Production:''' Speed King has demonstrated the ability to produce an intense "heat" at a single localized point within a short radius of about 10 centimeters.<ref name="JJLvol10"/> It would seem this effect only affects objects that Jobin has touched in some form. He has used it to melt the wax stuffed into his beetles after brushing them with a paintbrush and has given Josuke a nosebleed simply after offering some tissues to wipe his face with, threatening him with a practical embolism should the localized heat reach any other part of his body. ===Heat Accumulation=== ~~The Stand also has other hidden abilities that Jobin has yet to reveal.<ref name="JJLvol10">JJL Volume 10: ''[[JJL Volume 10\|Follow the Rokakaka Tree!]]</ref>~~ [[File:SpeedHeat.png\|thumb\|150px\|Heat increases inside of Ojiro's body, to the point the blood in his blood vessels starts boiling]] As explained by Jobin, Speed King has the primary ability to store heat and temperature within a short localized point. Examples include single objects such as the surface of paper money or even a particular spot on the human body.<ref>{{Ch\|JJL Chapter 88}}, p.40</ref> However, the heat can then be transferred to anyone who touches said point where the heat is stored. Speed King can only directly affect objects within 10 centimeters of itself or Jobin,<ref name="JJLvol10">[[JJL Volume 10]]</ref> but it is shown that objects storing heat can travel far away from Jobin and still be affected by Speed King's heat storage. For instance, [[Ojiro Sasame]] could travel from the [[Higashikata House]] to downtown [[Morioh (JoJolion)\|Morioh]] and still suffer from heat accumulating in his body.<ref>{{Ch\|JJL Chapter 88}}, p.26-30</ref> Since Jobin can heat sodium chlorate enough to produce oxygen,<ref name="JJLC73" /> it can be inferred that it can raise the temperature to at least 300 °C (572 °F). He has used it to melt the wax stuffed into his beetles after brushing them with a paintbrush and has given [[Josuke Higashikata (JoJolion)\|Josuke]] a nosebleed simply after offering some tissues to wipe his face with. This power can be weaponized and used to heat people's blood vessels, boiling the blood inside to render them unconscious or even kill them,<ref name="JJLC62">{{Ch\|JJL Chapter 62}}</ref> when applied to the temples the heat can become so damaging the eyes burst. {{-}} ==Chapters== {{Appearance\|BG=JJL\|BG2=JJL2 \|Chapters = {{Ch\|JJL Chapter 37}} {{Ch\|JJL Chapter 62}} {{Ch\|JJL Chapter 63}} {{Cover}} {{Ch\|JJL Chapter 64}} {{Flash}} {{Ch\|JJL Chapter 73}} {{Ch\|JJL Chapter 74}} {{Ch\|JJL Chapter 76}} {{Ch\|JJL Chapter 88}} {{Ch\|JJL Chapter 95}} {{Ch\|JJL Chapter 96}} {{Ch\|JJL Chapter 97}}{{Death}} {{Ch\|JJL Chapter 108}} {{Mo}} {{Ch\|JJL Chapter 110}} {{Cover}} }} ==Gallery== {{Tabber \|Story\| <gallery> JJL Chapter 39 Tailpiece.png\|Explanation of ability from the tailpiece of [[JJL Chapter 39]] ~~JobinStand.jpg\|Speed King's first appearance~~ SmallSpeedKing.PNG\|Speed King during [[Jobin Higashikata\|Jobin]]'s younger years ~~JJL Chapter 39 Tailpiece.png~~ SpeedKingOld.png\|Speed King's first appearance SpeedKingc62.PNG\|Speed King's appearance as of [[JJL Chapter 62\|Chapter 62]] Yasuhoboil.png\|Boiling the blood vessels in [[Yasuho Hirose\|Yasuho]]'s head to render her unconscious JJL chapter 73 - Speed King pummels Ozone Baby.png\|Speed King rapidly pummels [[Ozon Baby]] Speedking-car.png\|Speed King uses a car to send Jobin and [[Tsurugi Higashikata\|Tsurugi]] flying Speed-king-and-pmk.png\|Speed King summoned alongside [[Paper Moon King]] under the orders of [[Ojiro Sasame]] Speed-king-vision.png\|A vision of Speed King seen by Ojiro preceding his demise SpeedKingKakugo.jpg\|Speed King raising its arm SpeedKingFinger.png\|Speed King next to Jobin Speed King attacks the Head Doctor.png\|Speed King attacks [[Wonder of U]] hiding under the bedsheets </gallery> \|Chapter Covers\| <gallery> JJL Chapter 63.png\|[[JJL Chapter 63]] Cover JJL Chapter 97.png\|[[JJL Chapter 97]] Cover JJL Chapter 110.jpg\|[[JJL Chapter 110]] Cover JJL Chapter 110 Chinese.jpg\|[[Ultra Jump]] 2021 [[JJL Chapter 110\|Issue #9]] (Chapter Cover) </gallery> \|Ultra Jump Covers\| <gallery> Ultra Jump January 2020.jpg\|[[Ultra Jump]] 2020 [[JJL Chapter 93\|Issue #1]] Ultra Jump January 2020Clean.jpg\|UJ 2020 [[JJL Chapter 93\|Issue #1]] (Cover) Ultra Jump September 2021.jpg\|UJ 2021 [[JJL Chapter 110\|Issue #9]] JJL Postcard 10.png\|UJ 2021 [[JJL Chapter 110\|Issue #9]] (Cover) </gallery> \|Volume Covers\| <gallery> Volume_119.jpg\|[[JJL Volume 15]] Cover JumpComicsJJL15.png\|[[JJL Volume 15]] Illustration Volume 126.jpg\|[[JJL Volume 22]] Cover JJL22Clean.jpg\|[[JJL Volume 22]] Illustration Volume 131.jpg\|[[JJL Volume 27]] Cover JJL Spine.png\|JoJolion Volume Spine Illustrations </gallery> \|Sketches\| <gallery> JJL Volume 15 Illustration.png\|[[JJL Volume 15]] (Inside Illustration) JJL Chapter 96 Tailpiece.png\|[[JJL Chapter 96]] Tailpiece JJL Volume 27 Extra.png\|Head on the last page of [[JJL Volume 27]] </gallery> \|Other\| <gallery> Promo V24.png\|[[JJL Volume 24]] Preview from ''[[Ultra Jump]]'' </gallery> }} ==Trivia== Like all other Stands used by members of the [[Higashikata Family]], its name includes the word "King". Like all other Stands used by members of the Higashikata Family, its name includes the word "King". [[Yuya Fungami]], a character from ''[[Diamond is Unbreakable]]'', has the words "Speed King" emblazoned on his tie. *The "Mera" part from its [[Stand Cry]] is a Japanese onomatopoeia for burning flames. ==References== {{References}} ~~<references/>~~ ==Site Navigation== {{Languages}} {{Part 8 Stands}} [[Category:Part 8 Stands]] [[Category:Close-Range Stands]] {{JoJolion}}
