Summary

Guatemala Arc

Set between Battle Tendency and Stardust Crusaders in 1973, a research group from the Speedwagon Foundation are sent to Antigua, Guatemala to investigate the identity of a serial killer. From the unusual circumstances surrounding the victims, group representative J. D. Hernández[a] theorizes that the serial killer may have an ability connected to the Ripple. To aid their investigation J. D. enlists the help of two locals, Octavio Luna Kan[b] and Joaquin Luis-Holda.[c] After five months of investigation, they succeed in capturing the serial killer Fabio Ubufu[d] with Lisa Lisa, now the head of the Paranormal Phenomena Section of the SPW Foundation after being a special advisor for many years, confirming that his ability is not the Ripple.

They eventually learn that Fabio has named his power "El Señor de las Moscas."[e] Meanwhile, Octavio and Jaoquin request Lisa Lisa to employ them as official members of the SPW Foundation which she does after both pass the task Lisa Lisa assigns them. From both Fabio's testimony and the duo's investigation, a group of human traffickers seem to be connected with Fabio's newfound power. Accompanied by Lisa Lisa, Octavio, and Joaquin, the research group led by J. D. arrive at a small settlement where the human traffickers are rumored to be. A mysterious paranormal occurrence later recorded in the SPW Foundation's files as "Hopscotch"[f] attacks them again, this time by a 15-year-old orphan Izahera Mena-Mena[g] assisted by other children. After being placed under the protection of the SPW Foundation alongside the other children, Izahera reveals that a group of human traffickers led by an individual called Al Horn[h] are indiscriminately shooting immigrants from Guatemala attempting to cross the border to Mexico with arrows, exploiting the surviving victims for their new abilities.

In the briefing room for the research group later, Lisa Lisa recounts the magnitude 8.1 earthquake causing widespread crustal movement in the mountain ranges of Peru. Strangely the research body which attempted to conduct a geographical survey of this area were infected by an unidentified illness causing mostly death, but survivors exhibited unnatural bodily changes such as spontaneous combustion and electric discharge. Presumably, a pathogen which was hitherto confined underground was released. This virus derived from minerals may not be limited to just Peru; it may exist inside an earth-wide stratum. Moreover, the virus most likely encroaches the intrinsic soul and consciousness of humans to overwrite its very foundations. Lisa Lisa reveals she had been investigating this subject for many years, and alongside informed circles and researchers, have hypothesized that somebody who wished for the power of a perfect god had become aware of the existence of these minerals, and processed the ore into the shape of an arrow as a source of a transcendent virus metamorphizing human existence, awakening an ability surpassing human understanding, of extraordinary power.

From the inherent nature of the arrows, they have traversed the world and must have emerged even in battlefields and conflicts. Lisa Lisa states that it is now their duty to retrieve every arrow in circulation under the SPW Foundation's administration. For the present, they will focus on capturing the subordinates of Al Horn and recover the arrows they possess in Latin America.
