Chapter 193. Resolve Will Dispel All Misfortuwo-in-One)
---
If we sider the first failure of [Thoth] or the fact that [Thoth] could foresee the beginning but not the oute, it could be said that Jotaro and the others used their wisdom to defeat fate and ge the result.
But this sed failure—no matter how you look at it—has nothing to do with wisdom.
This urely Oingo ag foolishly uhe influence of the protagonist's halo, causing [Thoth]'s prophea in the exact opposite way they expected!
So, while [White Snake] initially made Cujoh Jotaro anxious with his words, as soon as she started writing her first word, she felt an increasiement as she wrote.
The more she wrote, the more fident she became!
Not only did she find a loophole in [White Snake]'s earlier words, but she seized it and unched a fretack, sending out her response!
Now, both the proof and witnesses were present.
She wao see how [White Snake] could tio bluff his way out of this.
If [White Sill tried to brush it off by saying it was all Jotaro's and the others' intelligence, she would show [White Snake] what real cruelty was! Kekekeke!!
White Shat's exactly what I wao say."
It was as if [White Snake] saw through Jolyhoughts, or maybe because the sed prophecy of [Thoth] and how Jotaro and the others broke it was just too ridiculous.
Jolyne's provocation hit nothing but air.
And [White Snake] even tur around to use against her.
White Snake: "Just as you said earlier, Oingo was indeed very stupid. If he had just deactivated [Khnum]'s ability and turned bato himself, the person injured by the bomb would have been Jotaro, and their assassination mission would have succeeded."
White Snake: "But in that episode of "Stardust Crusaders", Oingo acted as if he had lost his mind, preferring to swallow five lit cigarettes rather than turn bad get beaten by Polnareff."
White Snake: "He even fot to deactivate his ability after esg successfully, repg the real Jotaro and being the 'Jotaro' from [Thoth]'s prophecy who got caught in the bomb explosion!"
—?
Is this... an admission?!
Great!
Seeing [White Snake]'s response, Cujoh Jotaro felt like singing a celebratory song for how ecstatic she was!
After all, [White Snake] was the dog poop on her road to failure.
Every time their Green Dolphin Studio's "bad films" were on the verge of flopping...
This guy with the ID [White Snake] would jump in.
He'd use some bizarre perspective to reinterpret why they shot things a certain way, and then... well, there was no 'and then'—because all the viewers would get vinced by him, and their projects would go from losing moo making a profit!?
Damn it!
All I wanted was to make a bad film, so I asked Pucd his group of underachievers to film it this way. There was no deeper reason at all!
Please, stop over-analyzing it, will you?
It recisely because of moments like this—right when they were about to pop the champagne halfway through the losses—that [White Snake] would jump out.
Jolyne had developed an obsession with defeating [White Snake] in an argument.
But now!
Without Akiyuki Shinbing things down, Pucci, this underachiever, was finally dispying his true brilliance.
Even this [White Snake] with his bizarre logic was left speechless!
And judging by how quickly [White Snake] surrendered, maybe he'd even turn from fan to hater, no longer using his bizarre thought process to find highlights in their work, but instead fog on their shortings to help her lose money faster!
Unaware that the ID [White Snake] was actually Pucci's alt at, Jolyne was filled with anticipation.
Finally, she could make a huge financial loss!
And so...
White Snake: "However, this seemingly protagonist-driven plot is actually the key to why the bomb didn't go off on the real Jotaro but instead on the fake Jotaro, Oingo!"
Yes! That's it! Give me that scathing critique of "Stardust Crusaders"! ...Wait, huh?
Something seems off here...
Joly a chill run through her.
Although it seemed like [White Snake] admitted the plot was driven by the protagonist's halo...
But the way [White Snake] was talking—it still seemed like he was saying this plot twist was well-executed?
Impossible! Absolutely impossible!
The plot of the episode "Oingo and Boingo" only served to irritate the audience.
If they kept activating the protagonist's halo every time they faced an uable enemy, f the eo lose intelligence or self-destruct...
Not only would the story bee uing, but all the sacrifices made during the journey... even though Avdol had survived and his earlier 'death' was just a fake-out...
The sacrifices of the SPW Foundation staff, who died helping Jotaro and the others, would feel like a joke.
Before Jolyne could sehe danger a, ready to escate the argument...
[White Snake]'s message came through first.
White Snake: "DIO is the savior of vilins. This title, which was first spoken by N'Doul, who praised DIO, has gained reition among us, the audience. But why?"
White Snake: "Besides the fact that DIO is indeed worthy of being called the savior of vilins, another reason is because N'Doul, a Stand user who only appeared in two episodes, left a very deep impression on us~~"
White Snake: "As a blind man, even with his Stand being tered by Abdul, N'Doul seriously iwo of the four members of Jotaro's group. If not for the appearance of Iggy, Jotaro might not have even found N'Doul's locatio alone approached aed him by flying in."
As this statement was echoed by "White She other audience members who were already captivated by the topic couldn't help but nod in agreement—except for Jolyne Cujoh...
After all, unlike Oingo's clumsy as, N'Doul's performance was indeed endable.
Especially his resolve and willpower.
And his act of destroying his own brain to prevent DIO's secrets from being leaked.
If the setting had been different, what would have distinguished N'Doul from Jonathan, who sacrificed his final Ripple to protect Erina, Joseph, who baited Kars away from Speedwagon, or the noble Zeppeli and Caesar, who passed on the spirit of hope from geion to geion?
You could even say that if N'Doul had not been a vilin, or if he had been like Kakyoin, trolled by a flesh bud instead of genuinely worshiping DIO from the heart, he would have qualified to join Jotaro's group onists!
Though, his elemental-type Stand might overp with Iggy's role...
But setting that aside and excluding the issue of his stan'Doul's resolve was undoubtedly something everyone could respect.
Even Jotaro took the initiative to build a tombstone for N'Doul, ensuring his body wasn't left to rot in the wilderness!
It's precisely because DIO could earn the loyalty of even vilins like N'Doul that DIO was worthy of being called the savior of vilins!
After all, if even DIO couldn't hold that title, then who could?
Awakening these memories in everyone, [White Snake] tinued:
White Snake: "Now, as for Oingo and Boingo, who, like N'Doul, are also symbolized by the Nine Glods—what about them?"
White Shey're plete losers!"
Good! Well said!
Seeing this ent from [White Snake], L couldn't help but cheer aloud!
He had racked his brains trying to figure out the weakness of [Thoth]'s prophecies and how to break its power, nearly pulling his hair out in frustration.
But when the episode cluded...
"Stardust Crusaders" simply told them: Stop overthinking it.
There's o worry about [Thoth]'s power, because Oingo and Boingo are just plete losers!
Was that all their mental anguish had led to?
No wohis topic caused such a huge stir.
It was mainly because Oingo really was just too useless.
They had never seen a Stand user as inpetent as Oingo.
With such weak willpower, how had he not been ed by his Stand's power?
White Snake: "Don't even talk about having the resolve to it suicide to proteformation like N'Doul. Even with Thoth's absolute prophecy bag him up, Oingo didn't have the guts to reveal Joseph and the others' identities!"
White Snake: "And at this point, you might ask—how does this rete to my earlier statement that Jotaro and the others defeating [Thoth]'s prophecy wasn't due to the protagonist's halo?"
——You're right, how does this rete to Jotaro and the others not relying onist's halo?
[White Snake]'s sudden pivot left Jolyne, who had just typed out this question and was about to hit send, with no choice but to delete her message in frustration.
Because [White Snake] had already perfectly answered the question below!
White She savior of vilins—DIO. How could Jotaro and the others defeat someoh such high praise?"
White Snake: "Remember, the st ultimate being required the intervention of Earth's will to banish him into space. As the savior of vilins, DIO surely 't be any less formidable than Kars, right? This is probably the hottest topi 2CH right now."
White Snake: "And Oingo and Boingo are the best answer from Green Dolphin Studio to our question—only those with superhuman wisdom and superhuman resolve face the savior of vilins! Only those with these qualities try to transd fate!"
KO NO DIO: "Huh?"
Genius Little Pne: "Huh?"
LabMem No.001: "Huh?"
Little Tong Tong: "Huh?"
"..."
[ ]: "I think I uand what you mean, @White She first time Jotaro and the others broke [Thoth]'s prophecy, it was due to their intelligence, which prevehoth] from predig their poisoning."
[ ]: "And the sed time, pared to Jotaro whe N'Doul, risking being hunted down by [Geb], deliberately drawing attention alessly pursuing the hope of victory, Oingo, who cked even the ce to reveal himself at the risk of gettien up, had far too little resolve..."
Exactly! The real reason [Thoth]'s sed prophecy was broken wasn't due tonist's halo but the differen resolve.
pared to Jotaro and the others, who, despite knowing the danger, still embarked on this perilous journey with a clear goal, Oingo and Boingo, who followed [Thoth]'s prophecies to the letter and had smooth sailing all the way, cked any real resolve.
This episode of "Stardust Crusaders" used Oingo's foolisho highlight the strength of Jotaro and the others.
After all, if any of Jotaro's group had been in Oingo's position, based on their past experiences, none of them would have hesitated!
And it's this kind of strength that allows Jotaro and his group to challenge DIO, the savior of vilins!
Upon realizing this, L no longer fixated on how Oingo and Boingo lost despite [Thoth]'s absolute prophecy.
Instead, from the perspective of "How could Oingo, who cked eves to risk gettien up, ever win against Jotaro's group?" he rewatched the episode.
It was only then that he truly felt the undercurrent of emotioh Oingo's ridiculous behavior in that episode.
Ah that undercurrent, the unwavering resolve of Jotaro and his group, shining through—s that even fate couldn't stop them!
And isn't that precisely why they love watg "JoJo's Bizarre Adventure"?
It turns out Green Dolphin Studio never fot.
They never fot the feeling of wonder when they first entered the story of "JoJo's Bizarre Adventure".
Uncle Zeppeli, Jonathan, Caesar, Joseph, and now Jotaro...
Recalling the images of these characters, and imagining the baton being passed from oo another, L felt a chill run down his spine, giving him goosebumps all over.
At the same time, Jolyne Cujoh, who had been vehemently critig the test episode of "Stardust Crusaders", suddenly found herself uanding why the audience had flipped to praise the show.
Her heart felt cold and hollow.
So much so that when Pucci, who had just finished handling some side ats, came to report to Jolyne Cujoh, he felt like he had e at the wrong time.
Yet, under Jolyne's death gre, it seemed like he had no choice but to toughen up and speak...
"President Cujoh, I've got some bad news..."
"Really?!"
