Saint's Corpse/fr

Le Corps Saint (聖人の遺体, Seijin no Itai), ou les Parties du Corps Saint (聖なる遺体, Sei naru Itai), est une relique sacrée et puissant apparaissant dans la septième partie de JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, Steel Ball Run. Le Corps a ainsi une influence sur la huitième partie, JoJolion.
Le Corps Saint est le cadavre desséché d'un Saint, remarquablement bien conservé et capable d'accomplir certains miracles (par exemple donner des Stand), comme le font des reliques traditionnelles. Bien que celà ne soit pas confirmé clairement[1], le Corps Saint est presque certain d'être celui de Jésus.[2]
List of the 9 Corpse Parts
- Heart: Granted Funny Valentine his Stand D4C when as a soldier he fell onto it in the desert as his company perished. Over his chest appears the word "conscience" in a pattern resembling that of the location of the other Parts in the country.
- Left Arm: Merges with an unknowing Johnny Joestar in the Devil's Palm in the Arizona Desert / Monument Valley, granting him the Stand Tusk.[3] Like the Right Arm, the hand has a hole in its palm. Later it is taken forcefully by Hot Pants.
- Eyes: The "guardian" of the Eyes appears like a robotic Stand; invisible except where covered by sand, holding one in each hand.[4] Each has the word "turbo" written around the iris, and allow their holder to see Parts in the possession of others.
- Right Eye: Merging with his own, grants Gyro Zeppeli the Scan ability.
- Left Eye: Enables Diego Brando to retain the dinosaur powers forcibly given to him by Dr. Ferdinand.
- Spine: Discovered by Lucy Steel at the end of the 4th Stage. The Spine doesn't react to her, but when Blackmore takes it, he momentarily perceives Jesus' presence, and he and Lucy are transported 34 km away due to the spine's power. When Blackmore is defeated, the Spine fuses with Johnny Joestar.[5] Later it is stolen by Hot Pants, leaving a small fragment in Johnny's body, allowing him to retain his Stand.[6] This last part is eventually stolen from him as well.
- Rib cage: Original owner unknown. Around the time that Valentine acquires it, his physique spontaneously and greatly improves.[citation needed]
- Ears: Sourced in the spring by the Tree guarded by Sugar Mountain and its Stand; exchanged by Gyro with a pair of rabbit's ears, they merge with Johnny Joestar, to no particular effect.[7] Reluctantly, in order to fulfill Sugar Mountain's rules and save Gyro, Johnny relinquishes them to one of the surviving Eleven Men agents of Valentine.[8]
- Right Arm: Sourced in the spring by the Tree guarded by Sugar Mountain and its Stand, exchanged by Gyro with a rabbit's arm, it merges with him, to no particular effect. Like the Left Arm, the hand has a hole in its palm. Separating from Gyro as he transforms, in order to fulfill Sugar Mountain's rules and save him, Johnny reluctantly gives it to one of the surviving Eleven Men agents of Valentine.[8]
- Legs: The legs were found within a wolf pup which Johnny had fed. Gyro and Johnny did not realize the wolf pup held them and it followed them due to the corpse's compulsion to follow those chosen by it. It was eventually deduced by Wekapipo and Magent Magent that the wolf pup held the legs, due to one of the Eleven Men seeing the projection of Johnny's spine showing a wolf at the great lakes.
- Skull: Discovered by Lucy Steel while hiding from Valentine. She perceives the skull located in a fireplace flue. Seemingly becoming pregnant when it merges with her, the skull's shadow is then seen against her stomach.[9]
Pouvoirs
Les parties du Corps donnent souvent un pouvoir Stand à ceux qui parviennent à entrer en contact avec elle, de façon similaire à la Flèche de univers original.
Les parties du Corps ont des réactions différentes en fonction de l'individu. Par exemple quand Jayro et Diego prirent un oeil chacun, Jayro a obtenu Scan qui est un pouvoir séparé des Stand tandis que Diego a conservé le Stand Scary Monsters de Dr. Ferdinand.
Lorsque le Corps Saint est complété, la relique va bénir son propriétaire et la terre sur laquelle il se tient.
Funny Valentine découvre que le Corps Saint est une occurrence unique même dans le cadre d'un multivers infini, le Corps n'existant que dans l'univers originel. Dans des dimensions voisines, les compétiteurs de la Steel Ball Run recherchent d'autres objets précieux comme des diamants et non des reliques.
Histoire
Après la seconde mort de Jésus sur le continent américain, une innondation a emporté son corps, qui a fini par se diviser et se dispersa à travers le territoire de ce qui allait être les Etats-Unis. En partant de son premier tombeau, Jésus avait déjà prédit ce qui allait arriver et avait tracé une carte dans la poussière avec les emplacements de ses reliques pour Joseph d'Arimathie. Joseph d'Arimathie traça la carte et la fit conserver bien qu'il ne savait pas quelle était le territoire qu'il dessinait.
Les parties du Corps Saint arrivèrent là où ils devaient être et affectèrent les environs, créant des Paumes du Diable. Certains devinrent des place de légendes pour les indigènes. A travers l'histoire, plusieurs personnes sont parvenues à approcher les Paumes du Diables. La plupart moururent mais une poignée d'entre eux acquirent un Stand et s'échappèrent, sans forcément apprendre qu'ils avait croisé une saint relique. Le plus notoire de ces survivants fut Funny Valentine qui trouva le Coeur et apprit l'existence du Corps Saint.
Valentine fit organiser la Steel Ball Run pour avoir des milliers de cavalier traverser les Etats-Unis et collecter les parties du Corps pour lui. Dans la course, les parties du Corps sont passés entre plusieurs mains avant qu'ils ne convergent dans Lucy Steel. Le corps complété sortit de Lucy et fut amené par le second Diego Brando Trinity Church à New York City, où il fut déposé dans une chambre forte.
Après la fin de la partie 7 en 1901, Johnny Joestar vola le Saint Corps des Etats-Unis pour l'amener au Japon, à Morioh. Il pria au corps de transférer la maladie de sa femme à quelqu'un d'autre mais fût forcé de se sacrifier. Les agents du gouvernement américain reprirent le corps et le ramenèrent aux Etats-Unis.
The Corpse Parts are increasingly implied to belong to Jesus, although this is never explicitly confirmed.
The Saint's Death
Upon the Saint's death somewhere on the Western coast of North America, a massive earthquake and storm tore the land, splitting his Corpse into 9 Parts, which were then distributed by various forces of nature eastwards, resting at the locations he indicated they would to Joseph of Arimathea.
Prior to the Steel Ball Run race
In the Devil's Palm, each member of the military unit Funny Valentine belongs to perishes except for him, having fallen unconscious onto the site of the Corpse's Heart, when it merges with him, saving his life and motivating his search for the remainder.
Steel Ball Run race
Funny Valentine reveals that he guided the planned route of the Steel Ball Run race with the aim of scanning the country for the Parts besides the Heart, which clues him as to their rough location. The race's manager, Steven Steel, is only vaguely aware of the Corpse's existence.
The Corpse is discussed euphemistically as though belonging merely to a saint.
The competition for the Parts
Coming from Naples, Gyro treats the news of the existence of the Corpse very seriously.
Johnny Joestar wishes to collect the Corpse in order to raise himself from a perceived "negative" position as the result of his family misfortunes and personal mistakes. Johnny is willing to sacrifice the corpse to keep it out of misguided hands, though this doesn't sit well with Gyro as he believes the corpse should be preserved.
Diego Brando reads Valentine's intention and the power of the Corpse, resolving to use it to support his own fierce ambition.
Hot Pants reveals a deep desire to acquire the entire Corpse in order to help her absolve herself of what she sees as a cardinal sin in her past. She seems more aware that the Corpse must belong to Jesus.
President Funny Valentine holds a deep sense of patriotism and seeks to use the corpse's power to bring great happiness and good fortune to America, having formed the Steel Ball Run around the search for the corpse parts.
Sensing an obligation to defend the Corpse from possession by its other pursuers, Gyro and Johnny come into conflict with Valentine, his agents, Diego Brando, and Hot Pants.
When collected by various racers, many Corpse Parts generate clues as to the location of the next Part.
Blackmore, when handling the Spine, receives a vision of Jesus, shortly before he is killed.
While battling Axl RO, Johnny Joestar also receives a peripheral vision and vocalized advice from Jesus.
The Complete Corpse
Valentine's plot unfolds as he explains that the Corpse represents the ultimate power, existing in only one dimension in the multiverse, accessible only via his Stand, Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap. The one possessing it, like the first person on a round table to take their napkin from their left or their right side, will be empowered to decide some aspect of the fate of the world. His intention is to use it for the enduring security and dominion over others of his country, the United States.[10]
Lucy Steel, with Valentine's direction, eventually merges with the entire Corpse, beginning a metamorphosis that also lends her a Stand.
The Corpse's sealing
After Valentine's defeat, as directed further by him, the second Diego Brando seals the Corpse in a vault in the basement of Trinity Church, New York City, in order to establish "the center of the world" with Diego as its leader.[11] Waiting, stating that "the Corpse is not [his]", Lucy Steel kills him.[12]
Sealed away, it seems that the only ones left with the sure knowledge of the Corpse's existence and location are Steven Steel, Lucy Steel, and Johnny Joestar. Steven states his belief that the Corpse belongs to no person or nation and is safest sealed away in the vault.
Post-Steel Ball Run race
Johnny Joestar is anguished by the terminal illness of his wife, Rina Higashikata, and decides to retrieve the Corpse from its vault and try to its power to heal her. Chased by U.S. government agents, upon his sudden death in Morioh, Japan, it is currently presumed that these agents returned the Corpse to its vault.
