Endless Calamity, Part 7 (終わりなき厄災 その⑦, Owari Naki Yakusai Sono 7) is the one hundred first chapter of JoJolion and the nine hundred forty-eighth chapter of the JoJo's Bizarre Adventure manga.
Summary
Tooru walks around the thicket on the side of the Higashikata Estate. He extends his arm to a nest of hornets, who sting him, causing his skin to revert to rock. Meanwhile, at the TG University Hospital, Rai Mamezuku tears away his clothes to reveals that one of Josuke Higashikata's Soap Bubbles had passed through his clothing and bored a hole in his chest. Tooru notes that this may be the 'soap bubbles that cannot be seen' at the end of Chapter 100, but is unfazed, reassuring himself that Josuke is 'still inside the calamity', also noting that Mamezuku 'has self-destructed'.
At the Higashikata Estate proper, Joshu Higashikata attempts to aid Yasuho Hirose, while remarking that Norisuke and Jobin have died. Joshu physically berates himself, claiming it is his fault by inaction for Norisuke's death. Yasuho informs Joshu that the chaos occurring on the estate is due to a stand attack from someone attempting to retrieve the new Locacaca. Yasuho pleads with Joshu to contact Josuke, which he denies, claiming that Josuke is most likely also under attack, as well as no one knowing his current location. Joshu declares he will protect Yasuho, claiming that that is why he came to Yasuho.
Joshu notes that there are two Locacaca fruit as well as expressing shame at not being able to protect Norisuke Higashikata earlier. He encourages Yasuho to eat the fruit, to Tooru's surprise. Yasuho rejects, claiming they should not be ripe yet. Joshu rebuts this, stating that the larger of the two fruits looks ripe. He theorizes that after Yasuho consumes the Locacaca there should be enough remaining to heal Norisuke and vowing to help heal Tsurugi, claiming that he will not let anyone die. Joshu and Yasuho take notice of a rustling in the adjacent thicket, which Yasuho assumes is a person but Joshu writes it off as the wind.
Tooru is concerned about Joshu, wondering if Joshu's seen him the entire time and expresses concern allowing Yasuho to eat the New Locacaca, but eases his mind considering the fact that the plant will be able to produce more Locacaca. He notes that Yasuho is still 'inside' the Wonder of U. Yasuho informs Joshu of the equivalent exchange that will be performed, which Joshu says he already understands, accepting the equivalent exchange. He claims that it may form a 'bond way better than sex' between the two. Joshu presses his body to Yasuho's believing that to be key to equivalent exchange. Tooru rustles in the thicket, alerting Yasuho and Jobin to his presence. Yasuho theorizes that it may be Tooru and he may be Wonder of U's user. She notes he may have been waiting for someone to come to her aid. She hastily bites into the Locacaca, causing her leg and Joshu's to become merged at the ankle. Joshu reaffirms that he is not scared as his arm begins to shrivel up and a new arm begins to grow out of Yasuho's severed arm. Tooru looks on with little emotion as Joshu claims he was not prepared, as Yasuho poses alongside Paisley Park with a determined look.
