- Main article: Clash

History
Clash and Talking Head
Squalo first uses his Stand to rip out Narancia Ghirga's tongue, which also doubles as a means for him to plant Tiziano's Stand on his tongue as a means to mislead Bucciarati's group and kill them one by one.
However, Narancia manages to isolate his Stand and injure him sufficiently, forcing his breathing to increase and causing a large amount of carbon dioxide he expels to become visible on Aerosmith's radar. With no body of water for him to transfer his Stand, Squalo is forced to watch as Tiziano sacrifices himself to block Narancia's bullets, spilling his blood and enabling him to use his Stand to attack Narancia. Squalo engages Narancia in a standoff, but ultimately loses and dies from Aerosmith's bullets.

Quotes
- “The Boss's orders... those don't matter anymore. I'm not killing him to complete my mission. Tiziano, I'm killing him for you. I won't leave even a scrap of him behind. And I'll kill every last member of his team... I'll rip them to pieces and make them pay for what they've done! Clash! Tear out his throat!”—Squalo, Chapter 531: Clash and Talking Head, Part 7
