Pesci
Pesci (ペッシ, Pesshi) is an antagonist from Part V: Vento Aureo and a member of La Squadra di Esecuzione. He operates together with Prosciutto.
Appearance/Personality
Pesci is quite timid near his introduction, using his stand power almost hesitantly. However, with his teammate words of assurance and later death, Pesci becomes quite confident of himself, almost killing Bruno Buccellati during their battle near a lake. Buccellati notes, however, that Pesci's bravery dissolved into useless threats when the assassin attempted to threaten his friends inside Coco Jumbo.
Synopsis
Pesci is introduced as a crony of Prosciutto's with no confidence or self esteem. However, he could be considered to be one of the most developed villains of the story, as upon realizing that Buccellati apparently killed Prosciutto and seeing the extent of Prosciutto's determination, he gains confidence to complete his mission and challenges Buccellati, almost defeating him and even forcing him to admit that Pesci was more dangerous than Prosciutto in a one-on-one fight. However, Pesci is eventually defeated by Buccellati when he attempts a move that Buccellati deems useless and is promptly separated into several pieces by Sticky Fingers.
