History
Phantom Blood (1889)
Cabbage and Stark are a pair of young teenagers who bully Erina Pendleton, with one of them stealing her doll. Cabbage wonders if Erina got it from her father, who he refers to as a quack doctor. When they're about to rip off the clothes from the doll, Jonathan Joestar intervenes. The two recognize Jonathan as a Joestar and proceed to beat him up before walking off. The two later appear as associates of young Dio Brando and witness him forcefully kissing Erina. Cabbage expresses his admiration for Dio's bold move.
