Meanwhile, [[Dio Brando|Dio ]]receives in his lair a woman begging the Vampire to not harm her baby, but Dio simply transforms the woman into a zombie and lets her devour the child. Just as Poco learns that his [[Minor Characters#Poco's Sister|sister]] has gone out of their home to look for him, Dio is trying to charm her into joining him. When she slaps him, Dio gives her to his minion [[Minor Characters#Doobie|Doobie]] then leaves the room. Fortunately, Jonathan's group arrives before anything grave happens and Jonathan personally kills the zombie. Jonathan eventually arrives at a gallery where he finally confronts Dio.
It turned out that Dio is holding Poco's sister at his castle, temping her into consider to become a member of his undead legion of her free will. But the girl slaps Dio, telling him that he is a monster despite resembling a man. Dio proceeds to leave the "mademoiselle" while giving his Zombie [[Doobie]] permission to do whatever he wants to her. Poco's sister is saved at the last second by Jonathan, who uses his Ripple to have Doobie be destroyed by his own snakes. Afterwards, Jonathan leaves to find Dio. When Dio sees Jonathan entering his chamber, he orders his zombies to stand away as he hoped that Tarkus and Bruford would give Jonathan a merciful death. But Jonathan's insistence convinces Dio that he needs to deal with his rival himself, Jonathan admitting his hatred towards Dio and intends to put an end to him.
