Le Johnny Joestar de ce monde représente l'épreuve la plus difficile. Mais je relèverai ce défi et le tuerai à tout prix !
—Diego Brando, Steel Ball Run Chapter 92: High Voltage, Part 3

Le Diego Brando d'un Monde Parallèle (並行世界から来たディエゴ, Heikō Sekai kara Kita Diego) est un antagoniste majeur de la septième partie de JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, Steel Ball Run. Il apparait dans l'arc narratif "High Voltage" et est le dernier antagoniste que les héros affrontent.

Alors que Funny Valentine est frappé par le pouvoir de Tusk ACT4, il recherche et trouve alors un Diego Brando qui aurait le pouvoir de vaincre Johnny Joestar et trouve alors ce Diego Brando, aussi un manieur de Stand mais qui cette fois possède THE WORLD, un Stand qui peut arrêter le temps. Ce Diego accepte de combattre Johnny et de s'emparer des morceaux du Corps Saint.

Apparence

Le second Diego est virtuellement identique en apparence au Diego Brando original. Il est un jeune homme de taille inférieure à la moyenne avec une carrure athlétique. Il a des long cheveux clairs, mais des sourcils sombres et des yeux clairs avec un regard perçant.

Diego Brando porte un casque équestre avec des petites plaquettes sur des tiges épelant son nom, "DIO". Il porte un coul roulé avec une grille en diamant, des gants qui lui couvrent les avant-bras, et un haut-de-chausses avec des bottes de cavalier sombres.

Personnalité

Diego essaie de violer Lucy Steel

Le second Diego semble être moins scrupuleux et beaucoup plus cruel que le Diego original. Lorsqu'il combat Johnny Joestar après avoir volé le Corps Saint, Diego montre qu'il ressemble beaucoup plus à DIO en terme de personnalité. Il est brutal et vicieux, utilisant des tactiques telles qu'essayer de lancer des couteaux sur Johnny ou essayer de le brûler en l'aspergeant d'essence et en jetant des alumettes sur lui. Diego est capable de sacrifier des innocents pour se protéger. Quand il est poursuivi par Johnny et qu'il lui tire dessus, Diego laisse des fans l'approcher pour s'en servir comme boucliers humains, disant ironiquement que Johnny est responsable pour avoir tué des innocents. Diego montre aussi qu'il est un pervers, essayant de violer Lucy Steel quand il la rencontre.

Pouvoirs

Stand

Main article: THE WORLD

Le Stand de Diego THE WORLD, est fonctionnellement identique à The World. En effet, THE WORLD peut arrêter le temps pendant cinq secondes. Il est aussi un Stand de courte portée qui semble puissant physiquement.

Histoire

Passé

Valentine finds another Diego while speaking with Johnny
During the eighth round, the original Diego turned against Funny Valentine but was defeated by Valentine's Stand, Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap.

Later, Valentine was subject to Tusk ACT4, its infinite Spin bypassing Valentine's strongest defense and condemning him to stay in a hole in the ground forever. Valentine thus seeks another Diego Brando in a parallel world. Valentine reveals everything to this Diego and asks him to take the Saint's Corpse because he at least respects Diego's ambition. He thus hides Diego with him when he comes back to the base world and confronts Johnny alone.

This alternate Diego can be inferred to have participated in the Steel Ball Run for the prize.

High Voltage

Diego attacks Johnny

Diego hides in the hole until Valentine is finally killed by Johnny Joestar. While Johnny, Lucy Steel and Steven Steel are distracted, Diego comes out, steals the Saint's Corpse and hides among the other top competitors of the Steel Ball Run. Johnny eventually finds Diego but Diego stops time to reappear behind Johnny. Diego summons his Stand THE WORLD and stops time. He throws a handful of knives at Johnny and takes the precaution not to touch the nail Johnny has shot. Leaving as time resumes, Diego leaves but Johnny shoots with his nails. The moving holes give troubles to Diego and he is forced to stop time to escape. Diego and his horse suddenly teleport. However, Johnny quickly works out the nature of its power thanks to his experience with Ringo Roadagain. Diego too has the advantage of already knowing Tusk's powers and the Golden Spin technique.

Diego clashes with Johnny on Brooklyn Bridge

Diego arrives at the second place in Union Beach and quickly boards a boat to New York. Johnny eventually finds Diego in the alleys of Manhattan. Diego stops time again and sets up wires on whom Johnny nearly crashes. Johnny shoots the wall and uses the debris to shield himself and shoots a nail in the direction of Diego. A moving hole catches up to Diego and Tusk ACT4 comes out to attack. Diego stops time and prepares to strike Tusk but sees that Tusk is still moving slightly in the stopped time. Worried, Diego realizes that he best not even touch Tusk ACT4. Later in the streets, Diego splashes Johnny with oil and lights him on fire, forcing Johnny to open the pavement and go into the sewers. Diego loses sight of Johnny but predicts Johnny's actions and using his own fangirls as human shields. Finally, the competitors reach Brooklyn Bridge. On there, Johnny catches up and prepares to fire. Meanwhile, Diego uses his "5 seconds" to create a pincer move: he fires a gun from the front while THE WORLD attacks Johnny's back. Johnny is badly hurt again and falls from his horse.

Johnny seemingly misses his shot when his nail hits the bridge itself. However, he had accumulated enough spin to make one final attack, sending Tusk Act 4 climbing up THE WORLD's leg. Nonetheless, Diego already planned for this and has THE WORLD cut off its own leg off and throw it at Johnny, Diego manages to beat the Spin User with his own technique. He then remounts his horse and leaves Johnny to die. Diego is the first to cross the finish line and wins the Steel Ball Run.

The World of Stars and Stripes

Diego's head is annihilated

Heeding Funny Valentine's advice, Diego quickly goes to the Trinity Church and the vault under it to lock the Saint's Corpse inside. Suddenly, Lucy Steel appears. The World pins Lucy against the wall and Diego checks that no one else is around. Confronting the girl, Diego asks why Lucy is here to which she answers that she crossed the continent for happiness. Diego says that he plans to kill Steven Steel because he knows too much, but lusts after Lucy and plans on making her his woman. However, Lucy has a "present" for him. Diego opens the bundle and sees his severed head. Realizing the danger, Diego stops time and tries to flee, but his missing leg prevents him from doing that. Furious, Diego tries to kill Lucy instead but the head of the original Diego Brando flies towards him. Diego's head explodes and is disintegrated, killing the jockey.

All Star Battle (PS3)

Though Diego, either version, is not physically present in All Star Battle, some of his alternate's lines are present and fully voiced in the final part of Steel Ball Run's STORY MODE.

Interestingly enough, he is voiced by Takehito Koyasu, DIO's voice actor. He is referred to as "Dio" instead of Diego.

Eyes of Heaven (PS3/PS4)

DiegoAUEoH.png

This Diego Brando was confirmed for Eyes of Heaven alongside Johnny, Gyro, and Valentine, his name titled Diego from a Parallel World (並行世界から来たディエゴ, Heikō Sekai kara Kita Diego), shortened as THE WORLD Diego (世界ディエゴ, Sekai Diego).

The World Diego has an unconventional standard set of abilities: Instead of a Homing Dash that all other characters have and used to charge forward, Diego summons THE WORLD at mid-range to take opponents by surprise and knock them down with a chop; In place of a Powerful Attack, Diego summons THE WORLD to throw five knives forward in a fanning fashion; In place of a Takedown Attack, an unblockable strike used against guarding opponents, Diego pulls out a revolver and fires a singular, high-damaging shot that also deals massive damage to guard (an opponent's guard will break using only two bullets). This causes The World Diego to have a unique basic playstyle outside of his special skills.

As a Mounted Fighter, The World Diego is able to switch between riding atop Silver Bullet or moving on-foot. Also, as a Stand User, he is one of many characters with wildly varied abilities that grant him uniqueness in battle.

The World Diego interacts in a special manner with larger stage objects in that he can trap them with barb wire, which will paralyze opponents that get too close and leave them open to further attack. While this is a simple style of trap by itself among playable characters, Diego can then create a larger trap: if he traps two stage objects within range of each other that have a direct line between them, the two will automatically link their barb wire together, creating a long trap extending between the two.

  • Style Action - Me Time: After a short period of vulnerability, The World Diego stops time for five whole seconds, rivaling the time stop of DIO. His partner and opponents are unable to move, and he is able to initiate any action or attack with impunity. However, other time-stopping characters may activate their own ability to enter Diego's stopped time. Any projectiles that Diego can use, such as the knives of his Powerful Attack, the revolver shot of his Takedown Attack, and his skills' various projectiles and traps will freeze and remain suspended in mid-air. If used while in Mounted Mode, Diego automatically unmounts from Silver Bullet whom is also affected by the time stop. This ability's cooldown is equal to 40 counts of the battle timer, making it the longest cooldown of any ability in the game.
  • This is where the fun begins...: The World Diego throws a bunch of matches forward in a wave. Opponents caught by the matches will take damage and ignite. If time is stopped, the matches will freeze in mid-air after traveling some distance.
  • This trial will be "Subjugation and Certain Death": The World Diego tosses an open jerrycan of gasoline forward, spilling the liquid. Opponents hit by the jerrycan become Gasolined, rendering them unable to guard against fire-based attacks. If hit by any fire-based attack or source of ignition, Gasolined opponents will explode, receiving considerable damage and sending them flying. The jerrycan will even leave a puddle of gasoline where it lands, which can ignite into a patch of fire that lingers for several seconds, also igniting opponents that make contact with it. This skill can be canceled into "This is where the fun begins...", and may hit and douse opponents that are downed as well. If time is stopped, the jerrycan will freeze in mid-air after reaching the peak of its arc. If the skill is used while moving in Mounted Mode, Diego will instead toss the jerrycan behind him. 
  • Barb wire!!: The World Diego has THE WORLD set barb wire invisible to opponents in front of him as a trap. Opponents that make contact with the barb wire will be paralyzed before crumpling, leaving them open to further attack. If used while in Mounted Mode, the barb wire will be set at Diego's face-level, allowing it to catch jumping opponents.
  • Silver Bullet: The World Diego switches between Mounted Mode and Ground Mode. While in Mounted Mode, Silver Bullet has above-average mobility and jump height and can unleash devastating Normal Attacks while still allowing Diego to utilize all of his skills. However, his stamina gauge will slowly drain, automatically dismounting him when it empties. While in Ground Mode, Diego can interact with stage objects and grab ledges. Diego automatically switches to Ground Mode upon using his Style Action.
  • EX - This trial will be "Subjugation and Certain Death": The skill executes quicker and The World Diego is invincible until the jerrycan is thrown. This skill is inconsistently named "My trial is to conquer and kill at all costs." under the EX variation.
  • EX - Barb wire!!: The skill executes quicker and the barb wire is taller, allowing it to catch jumping opponents.
  • Dual Heat Attack - Time's stopped for five seconds!: After his partner sends the opponent into the air, The World Diego stops time. He proceeds to take out a handful of knives and throws them in tandem with THE WORLD. The knives, totaling exactly 23, are subsequently suspended in mid-air, surrounding the opponent. Diego gives a sly smile, then resumes time and lets the knives strike their target.

JORGE JOESTAR

Dio and Diego's corpse
Dio with his new body
The information below derives from a source not written by Araki. As such, it may or may not be considered canon.

In the light novel JORGE JOESTAR, the headless corpse of Diego Brando is by the feet of Lucy Steel when Jorge Joestar and the others arrive at Trinity Church. Jorge wonders how he ended up that way. The original universe Dio Brando, who is now just a head after his battle with Kars, goes on top of Diego's back. He sees the Saint's Corpse on a table lying behind Lucy and prepares to make the body his own.

His plan is foiled when Jorge places Jonathan's head on top of the Saint's Corpse instead. Frustrated about constantly losing to the Joestars, Dio attaches himself to the headless body of Diego. Dissatisfied, Dio declares he does not want to associate with the Joestars anymore and vanishes into the darkness of the stairs behind him.[1]
