Chapter 43
Summary
Erina arrives in time to see Jonathan collapse from Dio's attack. Dio remarks that he expected Jonathan to try to dodge his attack since it was so close to his head. Erina recognizes Dio, and discovers that he has already brought zombies onboard the ship.
Because of his neck wounds, Jonathan cannot speak or use the Ripple to help Erina. Wang Chan realizes this, and asks Dio if he can take vengeance upon him by beating him while he is down. Dio rejects this, saying that Chan should make his death quick and painless.
Wang Chan goes to finish Jonathan, but in a last effort to repel him, Jonathan summons the last of his strength to send one final Ripple into Wang Chan's body. This not only causes Chan to fly backwards into the ship's screwshaft, but also compels his zombified muscles to grasp onto it, inhibiting it's ability to rotate properly and ensuring the ship's eventual explosion.
Jonathan, having regained the ability to speak because of his final Ripple, tells Erina that the ship will explode. Erina tells Jonathan that she wants to die with him.
