Chapter 132. No Way to Win
---
"We... we got him!"
"We finally took down Kars!!"
Although, in the real world, most people wouldn't feel excited about this se sihey had read the script in advance, within the script's world, where Sakata Gintoki and the others had their memories erased, their characters didn't know the plot.
They were gehrilled that they had finally mao push Kars, the ultimate life form, into the magma. Kars was now tasting the scorg heat of magma, which could reach temperatures as high as a thousand degrees Celsius! It wasn't just some ordinary crab-like shell created by a perfect life form; even stone would melt in such heat!
So, Kars couldn't possibly resist being devoured by the magma, and they were eted!
If only time could stop at this moment.
Because soon after, "it" appeared...
A fsh of a bde!
An invisible and swift fsh of a bde!
It appeared out of nowhere, sshing upward!
In an instant—really, just in the blink of an eye—Joseph's left hand was severed from his body ao the ground!?
That was the Light Mode: Light Bdes!
That was... Kars!
Kars had survived in the magma by creating a shell made of bubbles. The bubbles' internal air kept the magma's heat at bay, and he stantly geed new, evil bubbles to repce the outermost ohat were being burned away. That's how he mao survive for several minutes in the magma!!
…
The atmosphere was a bit heavy.
Sihe filming began, Jolyne Cujoh had just been ag as a mascot, watg as Akiyuki Shinbo and the others worked with a bunch of equipment.
She didn't really uand what those instruments were for.
But just by watg the footage from the script's world, seeing how Sakata Gintoki and the others were giving up in the face of Kars' overwhelming power...
Jolyne, who had read the script, khings were about to get bad.
Or rather, they had all, including Pucci, severely uimated the despair that Kars would bring!?
It's uandable, though.
Just as "Dragon Ball" fans wouldn't think much of Frieza's 530,000 power level ohey knew about Super Saiyans, Pucci had first entered Kars as the "outdated" ultimate life form after learning about all the future Stand powers through online spoilers.
Naturally, Pucci could ruly prehend the sheer disbelief when, before the cept of Stands was introduced, the only thing that could harm vampires and Pilr Men—Ripple—was pletely ed by the ultimate life form.
It was like using cold ons to engage in horsebabat ih Online, only for a few nuclear bombs to suddenly appear in the sky... and thehing was over.
In the light of the nuclear explosions, a try would be instantly wiped out by another without even seeing their enemies!
This kind of absolute disparity, where only the oppo could attack you while nothing you did would matter, was an overwhelming crush beyond anything seen before.
Of course Joseph would feel like giving up when fag such a Kars.
Even those outside the script's world...
How could they endure such pressure?
But this was exactly what Jolyne wanted!
"President Cujoh, should we..."
"Don't pause it!"
Jolyne, who was secretly overjoyed, preteo be serious and said, "'t you see? Joseph, Sakata Gintoki hasn't given up yet!"
Of course, Jolyne couldn't actually tell if Sakata Gintoki had given up or not.
But she khe situation was very bad!
Having finally seized the rights of directorship, how could she let Akiyuki Shinbo ruin what she saw as the perfeding?
—Sorry, Shinbo, and everyone else.
—These are necessary sacrifices!
—After all, ohe director's name ges to mihe industry will only think it was my poor dire that led to the failure of "Battle Tendency."
—You pletely escape this bck mark and move on to work at other respectable studios, showg your talents.
Apologizing inwardly, Jolyne resolutely said, "Until the script ends, how could we, as the filmmakers, give up first!?"
…
Should I give up?
Just give up.
Once you give up, it will all be over.
Staring at Kars' figure, which was more beautiful and sacred than any statue, than anything else, Joseph felt oddly grateful that Kars had cut off his arm.
It was the stant pain from his arm that slightly suppressed his fear of Kars, allowing him to think.
But sometimes, thinking only makes the despair worse.
Like a frog being swallowed alive by a snake, Joseph now felt as though he was slowly awaitih.
Helplessly awaitih.
Because there's simply no way to win...
Humans 't possibly defeat monsters...
So just give up.
You've already tried your best.
Fag a mohat even the Earth couldn't defeat, it's perfectly normal not to be able to overe him, right?
Now, you just o calmly accept death...
—Don't lose, XX.
?
Was there really a sound just now?
Despite the pain in his blurry eyes, Joseph forced them open, only to see Kars' hideous face.
And...
"To push a Ripple warrior like you into the abyss of death... of course, Ripple is the most fittihod!!"
See? That smug look whehinks he's got the upper hand.
I should've just let myself die in the duel with Wamuu.
And Ripple...
—Take this, JOJO! My final Ripple!!
?!
So the fshback before death is real after all.
And this fshback...
— you do it?
...is filled with inprehensible nonsense.
—So what's your answer?
I told you, it's nonsense, didn't I?
Isn't it obvious?! The answer is...
