DIO's Diary

Dio's Diary is an item Jotaro Kujo finds after the events of Stardust Crusaders. The diary plays a major role in Stone Ocean, providing vital clues as to the way to attain "Heaven" in conjunction with Dio's Bone.

When Jotaro encounters the diary he considers it dangerous enough to destroy. However, remembering its content, his Memory Disc holds the information necessary to Dio and Enrico Pucci's cause.

Contents

The contents of the diary as remembered by Jotaro follows:

What you need is my stand "The World".

What you can find beyond the powers of my Stand is where you need to go in order to find Heaven. What you need is a trustworthy friend. He must be someone capable of controlling his own desires. He must be someone who is not interested in political power, fame, wealth, or sexual desire, and who chooses the will of God before the law of humans.

Will I, DIO, be able to meet someone like this one day?

What I also need is the lives of more than 38 humans who have sinned, because those who have sinned harbor a strong power within.

There are 14 phrases that one must keep in mind:

• A ghost Town

  Singularity point (x2)

  Hydrangea

  Rhinoceros beetle (x4)

  Pear tart

  Secret emperor

  Giotto

  Angel

  Via dolorosa

  Spiral staircase

I'll engrave these words onto my Stand so I won't forget them. What it most neccesary is "courage"; I must have the courage to destroy my Stand momentarily.

As it disintegrates, my Stand will absorb the souls of the 38 sinners and will give birth to something utterly new.

Whatever is born will "awaken". It will show interest in the 14 words that my trusted friend will utter... My friend will trust me and I will become his "friend".

Lastly, I need an appropiate location. North latitude, 28 degrees, 24 minutes, West longitude 80 degrees, 36 minutes...

Go there and wait for the New Moon...

That's when Heaven will come.

Trivia

• It is unknown how Dio came to the knowledge as to the recipe for attaining Heaven or how he could use his Stand to create a new life form.
• Oddly enough, if the recipe is correct, Dio's Bone actually retained some of his Stand, The World, in order to create the Green Baby.
