His Name is Diavolo (Story Arc)
His Name Is Diavolo (そいつの名はディアボロ, Soitsu no Na wa Diaboro) is the twenty-second story arc in Vento Aureo.
It narrates Diavolo and Doppio's attempt to approach and kill Polnareff in the Colosseum, with the aid of a blind and deaf Bruno Bucciarati.
Summary
Leading an injured Bucciarati toward the Colosseum, Doppio is told that Bucciarati is in fact undead and can only feel people's souls. Diavolo then disguises his soul as Trish's to gain his trust, and the two sneak past the rest of the gang.[1]
The boss takes over Doppio's body and reveals his true appearance to Polnareff, who recognizes Diavolo but can't fathom how he got so close to him. Though Polnareff has deduced a method of detecting when time is erased, Diavolo avoids the brunt of his attack and erases time once more. Blinding Polnareff with his blood, Diavolo prepares to kill Polnareff, only to be interrupted by a blinding light: Polnareff has pierced Silver Chariot with the Arrow.[2] Diavolo finishes Polnareff as time resumes and retrieves the arrow from a disappearing Silver Chariot.
