In 2001: 2 years after the death of Yoshikage Kira, Koichi Hirose travels to Italy by Jotaro's favor. He departs Naples Airport to find a boy by the name of Haruno Shiobana. Koichi comes across a peculiar young man who tricks him and drives off with his luggage. Koichi overhears two airport security guards reveal the young man's name as Giorno Giovanna, and infers that Giorno might be Haruno Shiobana. Meanwhile, Giorno meets with the gangster Leaky-Eye Luca, who attacks Giorno and is put into a coma after his attack is reflected back. Giorno reveals his Stand, Gold Experience, and creates a tree to escape from Koichi who caught up to him. Koichi calls Jotaro by telephone, revealing Giorno is the son of DIO. Escaping by train, Giorno encounters Bruno Bucciarati who questions him about Luca's death. Giorno lies to him and Bucciarati goes away. After, Giorno opens his hand only to find an eye enclosed, and Bucciarati reappears behind him and confirms he's lying by licking his face. |

In a flashback, it is revealed that Giorno, who was once abused by his step-father and bullied by other kids, started being treated with respect after saving an injured gangster, giving him a reason to live. Back in the present, Giorno uses Gold Experience against Bucciarati, which causes his senses to go berserk upon being hit. Bucciarati brings out his own Stand, Sticky Fingers, allowing him to create a dimension distorting zipper to try and escape inside another person, but Giorno tracks him down by turning one of Bucciarati's teeth into a fly. Despite beating Bucciarati in a duel, Giorno decides against finishing him off, instead asking to join his organization so he can take down his boss and take over the city. |

After entering the prison, Giorno asks to join the gang and is assigned a test in order to see if he is trustworthy- which is to guard a lighter's flame for 24 hours. Giorno accepts and leaves the prison, and after a series of close calls, manages to get into his dorm, only for Koichi to intrude in order to find his stolen passport. Giorno again narrowly escapes with the lighter however the lighter is extinguished accidentally by a janitor cleaning the area. Distraught, Giorno believes he has blown his chance, and is surprised when the janitor reignites the lighter. However, Black Sabbath appears and it impales the janitor's soul with an Arrow, killing him. Black Sabbath then detects Giorno and attacks the latter. |

When Koichi comes, the two teens ally to lure Black Sabbath into the light and annihilate it. Afterward, Giorno convinces Koichi of his rightenousness and also makes him keep his secret goal. Koichi thus reassures Jotaro about Giorno and departs from the latter's life. The next day, Giorno is welcomed by Polpo into the gang and officially assigned to Bruno. But as revenge for the janitor, he secretly turns one of the lieutnant's guns into a banana. Long after Giorno steps out of prison, Polpo finally eats the banana and kills himself with a shot to the head. Meanwhile, Giorno is on his way to meet Bucciarati's Gang. |
