King Crimson vs. Metallica (1) (キング·クリムゾンv.s.(バーサス)メタリカ その①, Kingu Kurimuzon Bāsasu Metarika Sono 1), originally Risotto the Assassin! (暗殺者リゾット！, Ansatsusha Rizotto!) in the WSJ release, is the five hundred forty-fourth chapter of the JoJo's Bizarre Adventure manga. It is also the one hundred fifth chapter of Vento Aureo.

Summary

Doppio charges toward Risotto to get in range of his power, but needles appearing in his mouth force Doppio to stop and get them out while Risotto disappears into the landscape. Doppio receives a phone call and panickly asks what to do. The Boss then tells him that he's granted him part of King Crimson's power, one arm and the substand Epitaph which enables him to predict the future. Using Epitaph, Doppio foresees Risotto camouflaged among the rocks, but more importantly that a pair of scissors will appear in his throat.
