—Jodio Joestar, The JOJOLands Chapter 1: Departure

Jodio Joestar (ジョディオ・ジョースター, Jodio Jōsutā) jest głównym bohaterem dziewiątej części serii JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, The JOJOLands, i dziewiątym JoJo w serii.

Jodio jest drobnym gangsterem mieszkającym w Honolulu na Hawajach wraz ze swoim starszym bratem Dragoną ai matką Barbarą Ann Joestar. Jest użytkownikiem Standa November Rain, który pozwala mu tworzyć lokalne krople deszczu, które mogą zmiażdżyć jego przeciwników.

Wygląd

Jodio Appearance.png

Jodio jest 15-letnim chłopcem. Ma jasną skórę i jasne włosy z długą, postrzępioną grzywką częściowo zasłaniającą oczy i podcięciem z tyłu. Jego włosy są asymetryczne, ponieważ prawa strona jest spleciona z ozdobną spinką w kształcie gwiazdy, a lewa strona jest obcięta tuż pod okiem. Na lewym uchu nosi duży kolczyk w kształcie liter "JO".

Jego strój składa się z jasnej koszuli z małymi rękawami pod ciemnym kombinezonem, który pełni funkcję bluzy z kapturem. Jasna koszula ma napis "NOVEMBER" (listopad) na przednim kołnierzu. Bluza z kapturem ma emblemat serca ze skrzydłami na środku klatki piersiowej, pod którym znajduje się pas zapinany wokół tułowia, podobny do koła ratunkowego. Emblemat jest oznaczony symbolem klepsydry, a oba trójkąty są podzielone na ciemną i jasną połowę. Spodnie są rozcięte pod kolanami, co nadaje im wygląd podobny do spodni typu dzwony, które są również nabijane ćwiekami w pionowej kolumnie obok rozcięcia. Jodio nosi różne rękawiczki bez palców, z których niektóre mają ten sam symbol klepsydry, co jego emblemat serca. Na każdym ramieniu ma opaskę w kształcie dwóch trójkątów. Kombinezon odsłania większość jego pleców. Do kombinezonu przymocowane są małe, łukowate naramienniki w jasnym kolorze. Jodio nosi również ciemne, gładkie buty.

Jako jedenastolatek Jodio nosił niemal identyczne ubrania. Zamiast emblematu serca, jego bluza z kapturem miała napis "JO" dużymi, wyśrodkowanymi literami z wydłużoną górną linią litery J.[2]

Osobowość

Jodio grozi funkcjonariuszom policji

Jodio Joestar to małomówny nastolatek o materialistycznych poglądach, który prowadzi życie drobnego przestępcy na Hawajach. W dzieciństwie u Jodio zdiagnozowano antyspołeczne zaburzenie osobowości. Test ujawnił kilka cech, takich jak impulsywność i niezdolność do odczuwania wyrzutów sumienia.[3] W rzeczywistości jego osobowość ogólnie pokrywa się z diagnozą. Jest raczej powściągliwym i samotnym chłopcem, często szepczącym swoje myśli do Dragony, aby ogłosić je Meryl lub drużynie, zamiast wypowiadać się bezpośrednio.[4][2] Poza rodziną nie wydaje się mieć żadnych bliskich przyjaciół i wyraźnie deklaruje, że nie chodzi do szkoły, aby nawiązywać przyjaźnie.[5] Jednak nadal wydaje się uważać siebie za dość sympatycznego i towarzyskiego.[6]

Jodio ma wiele uczuć do swojej rodziny, co przejawia się jako instynkt ochronny. Stawia czoła zagrożeniom dla niego i jego rodziny, biegnie na pomoc swojemu rodzeństwu i chroni swoją matkę zapewniając jej status społeczny poprzez swoje powiązania ze społecznością przestępczą na Hawajach.[7] Jest drażliwy i skłonny do przemocy, gdy widzi, że jego rodzina jest zagrożona lub wyśmiewana,[8] i nie odpuszcza.[2] Jodio obudził swojego Standa jako jedenastolatek, gdy był świadkiem napaści na Dragonę. Co więcej, widząc, że Dragona ma koszmary po tym incydencie, Jodio wziął sprawy w swoje ręce, podpalając cały autobus szkolny z dręczycielem Dragony i kolegami z klasy uwięzionymi w środku, niezależnie od tego, że nie wszyscy uczniowie byli zaangażowani w dręczenie. Ma jednak współczucie dla zwierząt, ponieważ ugasił pożar deszczem swojego Standa po tym, jak zauważył, że uwięził również papugę w autobusie. Chociaż Jodio nie czuje się winny spalenia ponad dwudziestu ofiar podczas podpalenia i nigdy nie został złapany za swoje przestępstwo, czuje się odpowiedzialny za konsekwencje, które później spotkały jego rodzinę. Ciągle zastanawia się, dlaczego jego rodzina czuje się tak, jakby była na skraju rozpadu po incydencie, z powodu opuszczenia Hawajów przez jego ojca i piętrzących się długów matki, chociaż Dragona próbuje go zapewnić, że było to tylko absurdalne wydarzenie niezwiązane z ich rodzinnymi zmartwieniami.[2]

Jodio nie jest zainteresowany nauką,[5] a jego największą ambicją jest stać się bogatym.[9] Mimo że jego matka uważa go za bystrego, nie radzi sobie w szkole, a jego oceny są najniższe w klasie.[2] W wieku 11 lat rozpoczął pracę jako gofer,[10] którą kontynuuje w wieku 15 lat, po prostu transportując towary z jednego miejsca do drugiego. Sam Jodio mówi, że traktował swoją pracę sumiennie i zawsze był dyskretny, nie mówiąc więcej niż musiał, co przyniosło mu uznanie i zaufanie w świecie przestępczym.[10] Jodio jest bezduszny w kwestii popełniania przestępstw, kradzieży samochodów[11] i handlu narkotykami w szkole.[5] Jego narracja jest również nieco znajoma i samoświadoma, ponieważ zdaje sobie sprawę, że jego cel, by stać się "obrzydliwie bogatym", może brzmieć zarozumiale.[12]

Jodio rozpoznaje pewne fundamentalne zasady, które nazywa „mechanizmami”, które rządzą interakcjami społecznymi i mogą być wykorzystywane dla osobistych korzyści. Na przykład zauważa, że „zaufanie” i popularność, które zdobył wśród rówieśników, nie tylko budzą sympatię i szacunek dla niego i jego rodziny, ale także zapewniają warstwę ochrony, w przeciwieństwie do zastraszanego kolegi z klasy.[13] Z perspektywy Jodio zrozumienie i przestrzeganie tych mechanizmów jest kluczem do osiągnięcia zwycięstwa, nawet w obliczu przeciwników. Przyznaje jednak, że zasady te nie są niewrażliwe, ponieważ mechanizmy te mogą czasami zostać przejęte lub zniszczone.[9]

Tak się składa, że Jodio jest wielkim fanem dzieła Rohana Kishibe, Pink Dark Boy, ponieważ czyta mangę i ogląda anime online.[14] Wydaje się interesować modą, nazywając projekty ubrań i towarów Meryl Mei Qi w Iko Iko naprawdę fajnymi.[1]

Historia

Tło

Jodio jest wnukiem Josepha Joestara i Suzi Q oraz synem Barbary Ann Joestar i bezimiennego mężczyzny. Jego rodzina początkowo mieszkała w Atlantic City w stanie New Jersey, ale przeprowadziła się do Honolulu na Hawajach, gdy Jodio miał 11 lat.[2]

Jodio podpala autobus i patrzy, jak płonie

Krótko po przeprowadzce i przeniesieniu się do nowej szkoły, Jodio był świadkiem napaści na Dragonę w autobusie szkolnym przez koleżanke z klasy. Jodio zainterweniował, podchodząc do nich i po raz pierwszy odkrywając swój Stand November Rain. Chociaż nauczyciel Dragony kazał mu wysiąść z autobusu, ponieważ autobus nie był przeznaczony dla uczniów szkół podstawowych, Jodio zapewnił, że był tam tylko po to, by odebrać starszego brata, aby mogli razem wrócić do domu. Dręczycielka uznała Jodio za przerażającego i wyśmiewała braci, mówiąc, że zamiast tego powinni być nazywani siostrami, zanim otrzymała natychmiastową zemstę od Jodio, gdy kropla deszczu kapała przez jej powiekę. Wracając do domu, Jodio zapytała, jak długo Dragona był zastraszany, ale Dragona zbył to jako żart dziewczyny.

W nocy w ich sypialni Jodio nie spał, słysząc koszmary Dragony podczas snu. Dragona nie poszedł do szkoły następnego ranka, ale Jodio udał się do autobusu szkolnego z kolegami Dragony w środku. Stojąc na zewnątrz, sprawił, że deszcz uderzył w zamek drzwi autobusu, więżąc wszystkich w środku. W środku wybuchł pożar, a Jodio spokojnie patrzył, jak wszyscy płoną. Zmienił jednak zdanie, gdy zobaczył papugę próbującą uciec przed ogniem i sprawił, że deszcz zaczął padać wewnątrz autobusu, by ugasić płomienie.[2]

Następnego dnia Barbara pouczyła Jodio za brak nauki i omówiła incydent z podpaleniem. Dragona był świadomy, że Jodio był sprawcą i skonfrontował się z nim prywatnie, myśląc, że jest chory psychicznie i potrzebuje hospitalizacji. Niemniej jednak, Dragona przyznał, że poprzedniej nocy poczuł wielką ulgę i dobrze spał. Dragona podziękował Jodio za uratowanie go, obiecał, że stanie się silniejszy i zachowa jegp przestępstwo w tajemnicy. Dragona następnie pokazał Jodio swój Stand i nazwał obie zdolności.

Kilka miesięcy później Barbara poinformowała Jodio i Dragonę, że ich ojciec opuścił dom i Hawaje po tym, jak został zwolniony z firmy ubezpieczeniowej. Rodzice dręczycielki Dragony byli zamożnymi ludźmi, którzy prowadzili firmę autobusową i w jakiś sposób byli w stanie zmusić ojca Jodio do zapłacenia firmie autobusowej dziesięciokrotnie więcej niż zwykła kwota, więc firma ubezpieczeniowa obwiniała ich ojca za zgodę na umowę. Barbara musiała pracować na dwa etaty, aby utrzymać swoje dzieci, przez co Dragona musiała nieustannie zapewniać Jodio, że ich sytuacja nie była jego winą za spowodowanie incydentu z autobusem i że było to po prostu absurdalne wydarzenie. Podczas spaceru w niebezpiecznej okolicy z Jodio, aby spotkać się z matką, Meryl Mei Qi przejechała obok nich i zabrała ich, oferując im propozycję "gwarantowanego zwycięstwa".[2]

11-letni Jodio zrekrutowany do roli gofera

Meryl zwerbowała braci do swojego gangu, a Jodio został goferem. Jego praca polegała na transportowaniu rzeczy i przekazywaniu ich innym w zamian za pieniądze. Wykonując tę pracę wydajnie i nie mówiąc więcej niż musiał, zyskał uznanie i zaufanie w gangu, choć nadal ma niską rangę, ponieważ ich role opierają się na starszeństwie.[1]

Jako 15-letni nastolatek uczęszcza do McKinley High School, gdzie szefem jego gangu jest dyrektor szkoły. W pewnym momencie Jodio musiał przejść test psychologiczny, który zdiagnozował u niego antyspołeczne zaburzenie osobowości.[3] Jego matka była oburzona, ale Jodio po cichu zaakceptował wynik i obiecał "być ostrożnym", choć prywatnie nie podobało mu się nazywanie go "antyspołecznym".

Pewnego dnia Jodio i jego starszy brat Dragona wyruszają na przemyt narkotyków w deskach surfingowych. Kradną pickupa, a Dragona tworzy fałszywe prawo jazdy, używając swojego Standu.[1]

The JOJOLands

Smuggling in O'ahu

Jodio about to pummel the officer with raindrops

Jodio sits in the passenger seat of the pickup truck while Dragona drives, blasting Dua Lipa's music. They are suddenly stopped by police officers. One of the cops gets annoyed at Dragona questioning them and forces Dragona out of the car. He molests Dragona under the pretense of "searching them" until Jodio decides to intervene. Jodio steps out of the car and demands the officer take his hands off his big brother, threatening to kill him otherwise. The officers point their guns at Jodio but he summons his Stand, causing rain droplets to pin the officer behind him to the ground, flattening him. Just before the other officer fires at Jodio, Dragona uses their Stand to slide the officer's eyes to the back of his head, throwing off his aim. Finally, Jodio attacks the officer with rain drops as well, crushing him. He continuously stomps on the cop before Dragona stops him, calming him down so that Jodio doesn't kill the man.

Jodio then burns the officers' body cameras and dashboard camera along with their car, so that the officers would have no evidence and won't be able to go after them. Moreover, Dragona uses their Stand to change the numbers on the truck's license plate and gets rid of their fake license before they head to their gang's rendezvous point. One of the gang members praises them for doing well but reprimands them for being late. He also asks them if they heard about a police car being burned down but Jodio and Dragona pretend to be ignorant. They walk until they get to a major road and then call an Uber to go home.

Jodio receives his new mission and allies

While Jodio is headed to school on the bus, his upperclassman Usagi Alohaoe asks him if he brought the stuff he wanted. Suddenly, Jodio pushes him off the seat and makes a scene, asking if Usagi is messing with him. Usagi is confused, but as they leave the bus, Jodio calls him over and apologizes. He takes the money from the boy's pocket and gives him directions of where to go to get the drugs.

Later that day, Jodio, Dragona, and Paco are summoned by their boss, Meryl Mei Qi, to the fashion boutique named Iko Iko. Meryl orders everyone to turn off their phones before showing them her own phone. On the screen is a natural blue 24 carats diamond worth 6 million dollars. It's owned by a Japanese tourist who owns a villa on the Island of Hawaii and plans to stay there for around 12 more days. Their group will be getting a 2% split all together, while Meryl gets an 18% cut after they sell it on the black market. She also informs them that they will be going as a team of four. The student who they sold drugs to at school in the morning arrives as their fourth member, as Meryl guarantees that he will be useful to them.[1]

Before the heist, Jodio and Paco want to complete another drug sale and a college student contacts them to buy drugs at a park. Jodio meets with the student but quickly suspects that she's an undercover police officer. The woman dismisses him, claiming that if she were a police officer, then she would have to confirm it if Jodio asked her the question. Jodio asks her and she lies. Immediately after the transaction is complete, she reveals herself as an undercover DEA agent and arrests Jodio as another group of officers arrest Paco. The DEA agent gloats, explaining that she only needs the drug as physical proof to arrest him. Jodio is manhandled by the duo of police officers from before who molested Dragona, and one of the officers threatens to molest him. Angered, Jodio uses November Rain to destroy the bag of drugs, forcing the police to let him go afterwards since they no longer have evidence.

The Diamond Heist

The day of the heist, Jodio, Dragona and Paco fly together to Hawaii Island and wait for Usagi at the airport. Usagi is late and makes light of his tardiness. However, he does the role he was assigned and brings the group to a car rental business where the group can rent a car. Usagi assures that the car will leave no trace of them because the company doesn't track the renter's whereabouts with onboard cameras or GPS recorders.

The group thus drives around Hawaii to the villa of said Japanese tourist and Jodio goes to scout the place first. He notes that the tourist is in the villa but also spots some drinks on the table of the balcony, as well as a towel, suggesting that the tourist will go swim in the pool for a moment. This gives the group the opportunity to sneak in and quickly steal the diamond. On the way, Usagi reveals his Stand THE MATTEKUDASAI which morphs into a second security camera to produce a modified recording of the group with disguised faces when they trespass into the property. Jodio watches the pool and suddenly recognizes Rohan Kishibe, a famous manga artist.[15] Jodio immediately hides behind a chair and reaches for manga artist's iPad. He looks at the Pink Dark Boy drawings in awe, but also notes that Rohan is still someone who brings a diamond worth 6 million dollars with him on a vacation. Meanwhile, Dragona successfully picks the lock of the front door, and Jodio tells them that there are no problems so far as long as the three do not come close to the windows by the poolside. so the trio heads inside the mansion.[16]

Jodio continues to browse through Rohan's iPad, seeing multiple pictures of volcanoes and lava - assuming them to be references for the manga artist - as well as pictures of Bakin, his dog. With Bakin presumably in Japan being taken care of by someone else, Jodio realizes that the cat wandering around the mansion may not be Rohan's pet but a stray. Suddenly, Rohan leaves the pool and Jodio hurriedly returns the iPad and pages Dragona. He reports that Rohan will soon be coming inside, so the three must leave immediately since they can return another time for the diamond. He also notices that the stray cat seems to be leading Rohan inside. After Dragona, Paco, and Usagi ignoring Jodio's warning, he has no choice but to summon November Rain to temporarily distract the manga artist, using the rain drops to drip a nearby cactus's spine onto Rohan's finger, pricking him. He soon sees the cat enter the house. Noticing Rohan examine his surrounding, Jodio then realizes that he is also a Stand user.[16] He warns Dragona through their transceiver that Rohan has entered the house and has figured out the situation. However, Dragona receives the message too late due to being distracted by a Stand attack. Thus, Rohan is able to attack the group and learns by reading their bio of Jodio's presence.[17]

Jodio manages to neutralize Rohan and acquires a strange piece of lava.

While Rohan is busy fighting Paco and Usagi, Jodio takes the opportunity to sneak inside the house. He discovers the lava samples in Rohan's safe and deduces that Rohan is in Hawaii to study its volcanoes. Realizing that these samples must be valuable to Rohan, he decides to take them. As Rohan confronts Dragona, Jodio uses November Rain to cause a downpour in the living room, targeting the floor beneath a carpet to make it collapse. Caught off guard, Rohan falls into the hole created by the rain. Jodio then swiftly appears behind him, tying his neck to a decorative fence and binding his hands. Once Jodio unties Paco and Usagi, they threaten to retaliate against Rohan, fueled by their anger. However, Jodio prevents any further confrontation, explaining that he respects Rohan and wants to maintain the day as a great one. Dragona, however, alerts Jodio to the fact that Rohan is aware of their identities, making an airport escape impossible. Moreover, Dragona mentions how they can't steal the diamond, causing confusion within the group. Adding to their disarray, Rohan points out that they would have been safer if he had been the one to capture them since they are being followed. Despite this, Jodio remains undeterred.

Jodio picks up Rohan's phone and instructs him to call off the police and claim that the earlier burglary report was a mistake. Rohan refuses, reasoning that it would be pointless as a patrol car will check the situation regardless. Unfazed, Jodio playfully taps the phone on his head and proceeds to share his earlier encounter by the pool. He reveals how his admiration for Rohan's work led him to inspect Rohan's iPad, where he discovered photos of the lava samples that Rohan kept in his safe. To underscore his point, Jodio presents a small tray containing two Lava Rocks, which he assumes are valuable to Rohan. Upon hearing this, Rohan is taken aback.

Jodio threatens to destroy the remaining lava sample and toss it into the ocean if their retreat to O'ahu is obstructed, forcing Rohan to cooperate. He even crushes one of the samples for emphasis, causing Rohan to panic. The rest of the gang is curious about the lava's value, but Jodio admits he is unsure; he only knows that it serves as useful leverage against Rohan. With one final plea for cooperation, Jodio leaves Rohan a pair of scissors and the cellphone, while Dragona instructs Paco to seize the diamond. Once Paco nonchalantly grabs the diamond, the group departs, with Rohan requesting a private word with Jodio. Rohan commends Jodio as a worthy adversary and urges him to protect the remaining lava sample, hinting that it may be the last of its kind. He unveils a secret: if the lava is handled carefully, it holds the potential to make Jodio extremely wealthy due to a hidden "mechanism." Intrigued but suspicious, Jodio probes further, but Rohan remains cryptic. Expecting a future encounter, Rohan wishes Jodio a safe journey and advises him to keep the lava's secrets to himself, distrusting Jodio's companions. Having absorbed this new information, Jodio silently exits the house.

Reuniting with his gang, Jodio reassures them that the police situation is under control. He instructs them to head through the jungle, back to the car, and return home. Usagi asks Jodio to appraise a drawing he stole from Rohan, making Jodio jealous since Usagi won't give it to him. Unbeknownst to the group, a trio of stray cats stealthily watches from the rooftop of Rohan's villa, and as the gang leaves, the cats trail behind them.[18]

Jungle Warfare

In the jungle, Jodio still privately wonders what is going on with the lava. He asks himself why Rohan has entrusted the Lava Rock to him and what the implications are. Wondering whether Rohan wants him to do something specific with the lava, Jodio doesn't plan on doing anything with it unless it makes him money. Suddenly, Paco trips on a root, forcing the group to stop. Dragona sees that the diamond has fallen on the ground, which surprises Paco who is sure that he put the gem in his backpack and zipped it. Then, Jodio also sees the precious artwork Usagi had stolen earlier near him beneath some leaves. Somehow, the drawing has left Usagi's backpack. Dragona also remembers how several bank notes that Paco had stolen mysteriously fell out of his pocket earlier and realizes that this is not a matter of being careless or any trick on Rohan's part, but rather it seems that precious items are drawn towards the Lava Rock. Since Jodio was holding the Lava Rock, Dragona tells him to pick up the diamond, assuming it wouldn't fall again.

However, when Jodio approaches the diamond, he touches a wire that was hidden in the grass. It coils around his ankle and lifts him up, leaving him dangling upside down from a tree. Surprised, Jodio drops the Lava Rock. Moreover, he glimpses a silhouette of the stray cats lurking around, hidden by the vegetation. The rest of the group is just as surprised as Jodio to see the wire attack continue even after they left the house. Jodio warns his companions about an animal lurking around and Usagi suspects the stray cat he's seen at Rohan's villa. The wire digs into Jodio's leg and he is unable to break free. Thus, Dragona approaches to help him. However, two other wires stealthily approach Dragona from behind, bind to each other, and then pierce their stomach. Paco rushes to Dragona's aid but when he grabs Dragona, the wires start to sew themselves into his arm, binding him and Dragona together.

Jodio sees more wires flying towards them from upwind and warns his companions. Worse, it seems that Usagi has taken all the goods and fled. As the wires approach Paco and Dragona, Jodio, still dangling from the tree, estimates the distances between him, the branch from which he's hanging, and the tree trunk. Satisfied, he tells Paco and Dragona to get under him and then summons November Rain. November Rain creates a rain right underneath it which pushes the floating wires onto the ground and disintegrates them while Jodio shields Paco and Dragona. Jodio tries to swing towards the tree but fails to grab onto the bark.[19]

As the trio struggles against the wire onslaught, Paco uses THE Hustle to remove the wire from Jodio's ankle. Jodio's November Rain manages to fend off one cat, but the remaining two ensnare them in a net made of wires, which is revealed to come from their fur. Just as the situation seems dire, Usagi intervenes by crashing the rental car into the tree. He reveals he had fed the cats expensive caviar he stole from Rohan's villa. Usagi has Dragona ask THE MATTEKUDASAI to transform into a net and lures the cats toward him. He then drops the Lava Rock he was holding, causing the cats to fall down since they would be drawn toward the Rock due to its properties. After Usagi cleverly captures the two felines, Jodio reflects on the mysterious nature of the Lava Rock and suspects that something had been observing Rohan even before their arrival at Rohan's villa.[20]

Testing the Lava Rock

Jodio attacked by the fake Paco

Jodio's group winds down after escaping from the jungle. Two adult women flirt with Jodio, asking if he wants to go to the beach with them, but Dragona calls him away so that they can go to a cafe. Dragona lends Usagi $20 so he can do an experiment to test the Lava Rock's ability to attract valuables. Usagi places the Rock on top of the bill while they talk for a few minutes, then marks the bill with a symbol using a pen before throwing the cash to the ground. A man steals the bill and uses it to pay for food, but the money eventually returns to the group after Paco gets a refund from a shop, confirming the Lava Rock's power. Dragona then suggests a test at a luxury watch store, Diamotch, so they can fully figure out how the Lava Rock's powers work before boarding the plane. Jodio stays behind with Paco, who leaves to get them chicken burritos. When he returns, they receive a morbid warning in their food bag: decapitated heads of the three cats they fought earlier. Jodio surmises that the cats' owner had been watching Rohan's villa the whole time and was stalking the group afterward, aiming to retrieve the Lava Rock.[21]

Jodio incidentally receives a phone call from his mother Barbara Ann Joestar who asks where he is. He pretends he is simply hanging out with Dragona and denies being with Paco. After he hangs up, Jodio resumes trying to make sense of the situation. Neither Jodio nor Paco can guess who would send the package. Eventually, Paco theorizes the sender must be a ruthless person who owned the Lava Rock and suggests it would be best to relinquish the lava rock. However, Jodio refuses. Firstly, Jodio explains that if the sender has been watching Rohan, then they must not have known about the lava's properties and must not actually own the rock. Secondly, Jodio is determined to leave Hawai'i with the rock, feeling that between criminals, there's no point hoping for the other party to be reasonable. Suddenly, a second Paco comes back. At this moment, the first "Paco" sheds their disguise and attacks Jodio with a knife, cutting his neck.[22]

A New Ally

Paco pushes Jodio aside and uses THE Hustle on Jodio's neck so that he only receives a glancing wound. After Paco fends off the enemy, Jodio is able to put a band-aid on his neck. Dragona and Usagi exit the store while enjoying a bit of alcohol from Rohan's house. They celebrate their success and await one expensive wristwatch to come back to them. Although Paco warns them about an enemy hiding nearby, Dragona and Usagi are distracted when they see the watch they targeted in another woman's possession. Dragona sees a bird fly toward them carrying the watch, but it is actually an illusion as the foe is transformed into the bird and the sky. He steals the Lava Rock and also stabs Dragona in the neck. As Dragona collapses, the enemy disappears again. Jodio makes it rain around him, and manages to wound the enemy on the leg.[23]

Charming Man pins Jodio underwater

Dragona pulls the wound onto a bottle, saving themself. The group spots a blood trail and thus are able to follow the enemy. During the chase, Paco warns that the enemy's skin has a rough texture. The trail leads to a car, whose owner, Leo, antagonizes the group for blocking his path. Jodio opens one of the car's doors and suddenly feels the sandy texture. The enemy reveals himself, fused with the door. Jodio kicks the woman sitting in the passenger side away but the enemy retaliates with a slash of his knife, breaking the door's window. Leo interrupts the fight and berates the gang for harming his girlfriend and car, allowing the enemy to disappear again. Although the blood trail is gone, they see the watch bound to the Lava Rock sliding towards the sea, and are able to use their diamond as a compass to pinpoint the general direction of the enemy. They follow the diamond's cue to the shore, where Jodio plans on cornering the enemy and force him to manifest himself.

They walk down to a pier, where the assailant fuses with a splash of the water and ambushes Paco from behind. Jodio saves Paco by grabbing onto the enemy and dragging him into the water. Getting angry, the enemy turns around and tries to press his blade on Jodio's neck, but Jodio summons November Rain and activates his power. The heavy rain breaks the blade and forces the enemy underwater, but November Rain's ability cannot penetrate deeper than the surface of the water. The enemy tries to stab him in the stomach, leading Jodio to block the attack with his arms, but it pins him down to the sea. Usagi helps him by kicking an inflatable raft into the range of November Rain's attack. The rain makes the raft sink, and Jodio is able to breathe in the bubbles of air leaking from the boat. Thus, he's able to reverse the situation and it is now him who's pinning the enemy in the water with him.[24] However, Paco changes his mind and decides to make an ally out of their assailant.

Thus, the fight concludes and the group plus the man, named Charming Man, make an uneasy truce. At the airport, Jodio finds himself sitting in front of Charming Man and asks him what kind of music he listens to. When Charming Man answers by listing Sia, H.E.R., and SZA, Jodio finds it amusing that he's only listening to artists with three letter names. Paco interrupts the chatter and asks for more information about Charming Man, who reveals his backstory and how he knows about the Lava Rock. As everyone boards the plane back to O'ahu, Charming Man warns Jodio that the rock will not make them rich, but doesn't elaborate much.

Team Jodio's new mission

Back at O'ahu, Jodio and the rest make their report to Meryl Mei Qi and bring her the diamond. Although they stole more than Meryl Mei instructed, she remains satisfied of the heist and hands the group their payment for the job. Meryl Mei puts the diamond in a safe but then asks what they were doing for more than six hours on the island, since none of her contacts reported that there was a robbery. The group hesitates to explain everything, but Dragona points out that the diamond is back in Meryl Mei's hands.[25]

When Meryl asks Dragona why she should trust Charming Man, Jodio whispers something to Dragona. Dragona and Paco try persuading her by explaining Charming Man's good intentions to save his younger brother. When Charming Man states that he believes society itself is preventing him from rescuing his brother, Usagi considers that notion absurd. Jodio repeats the word "absurd", as it reminded him of the bus incident from his past. Meryl reveals her connections with the infrastructure development company HOWLER and unveils a plan for the gang to claim the entire Hualalai Mountain as their own by taking over HOWLER's assets using the Lava Rock. Meryl plans to give them 4% each of the total estimated 50 billion dollars if they succeed. Rather than being robbers this time, they will just have to get close to the land.[2]

At the Land Registry Office

Jodio, Dragona, Paco, Usagi, and Charming Man all head to Hawaii's Registry Office in a van. While they wait for the registry office to open, Jodio plays on a handheld device. At 10:00, Dragona, Usagi, and Charming Man enter the registry office in order to have the Lava Rock touch all the land registries while Jodio and Paco stay in the van to provide support and pick them up later. Charming Man eventually calls them to signal them that he and the rest have got out of the office. Jodio and Paco drive back to the building, unaware that Usagi suddenly became sick.[26]

Dragona and Charming Man bring Usagi to the van. Jodio and Paco are surprised by his state and the group starts to debate what to do. While some suspect Usagi is merely suffering from symptoms of his suspected drug addiction, Jodio errs on the side of caution and seriously considers Usagi's suggestion that they are under attack. This is corroborated when an ambulance arrives and the medics evacuate the office lady who was turning the registry pages for Usagi, as she is suffering from the same symptoms as Usagi. Impressed by Usagi's spirit, Charming Man decides to help him and checks inside Usagi's body by inserting bits of him through the straw Usagi used to make himself another breathing orifice. Charming Man does see a Stand damaging Usagi's blood vessels and tries to drag him out. However, he also becomes sick, developing tumors around his eye. Worried, Jodio tells Charming Man to stop but the latter insists on extracting the Stand. Worse, Dragona also falls ill.[27]

Upcoming Legacy

Jodio describes himself as a boy who will go on to become filthy rich in the subtropical islands.[1]
