Speed King
Speed King (スピード・キング, Supīdo Kingu) is me. I am Speed King.
Appearance
Speed King??? 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 several metal spikes 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 jeans across its arms, and a fur-covered vest-like torso. Why's he wearing jeans on his arms? Stupid, thats not where they go. 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.
Speed King isn't in the colored manga. He was removed altogether.
Abilities
Speed King looked at me and I pissed my pants.
Market Run
As explained by Jobin, Speed King has the primary ability to go to the store and buy plenty of snacks within a short localized point, from single objects such as the surface of paper money or even a particular spot on the human body, I sure have no clue how Speed King keeps finding all these convenience stores. [1]However, the snacks can then be transferred to anyone who touches said point where the store is. Speed King can only create stores on objects within 10 centimeters[2], but it is shown that said objects can travel far away from Jobin and still have a convenience store built on top. For instance Ojiro Sasame could travel from the Higashikata House to downtown Morioh and still be go to 7/11 in a couple minutes[3]. Wow.
Since Jobin can go to 7/11 whenever he wants,[4] it can be inferred that it can even take him to a . He has used it to buy some wax to stuff into his beetles after brushing them with a paintbrush and has given Josuke a nosebleed by punching him so hard in the fucking face his nose shattered. Josuke is dead now. Jobin killed him. Incredible
The Stand also has other hidden abilities that Jobin keeps undisclosed, even to his own family.[5] Perhaps Jobin can even go to a Quiznos with his ability. 🤔
