"Hmph." Dio let out a snicker that their useless advance.
*crash*
So she threw the driver of her ride at them, letting the vehicle lose control and then crash into a nearby building.
Her feet left the car, flying to the spot so she could have a look. Inside is empty, she turns her head up to see silhouuettes moving.
"Ha, pretty quick."
Swinging across the rooftops of buildings to buildings, Kakoyrin, Josane, and Takichi are using their stand-like swing ropes to travel.
"Miss Jostar, let me do it. I have a pn to reveal what Dio's stand power is." Kakoyrin said to them, the three stopped to rest on a rooftop
"You sure about this ?"
"Yes, Dio will realize our pn to split up and use a pincer attack, but that is not enough."
"Fine, but you can't expect me and the boy to just be on the sideline-"
"That's why i'm asking you. Please, watch over me. Analyze our fight carefully so I can help you discover her abilities."
"Be careful." Josane said hesitantly.
Takichi approached her, "There's one thing I can do."
-------
Quickly catching up, Dio saw them. Three people were caught in her line of sight: two women and a male.
'The boy and old woman can be dealt with ter.' Dio makes a choice to get rid of Kakoyrin first.
She jumps to the same roof where Kakoyrin is, at the first contact of her feet to the rooftop. Many Emeralds were shot at her, and she swiped them away and stepped back. Again, more shots followed behind her this time.
'What is this.' Using both wrists, she blocked all the incoming shots.
She found strings of green lines strews everywhere, making a rge web connected throughout the roof.
'So, this is her trap. Using each strand as a sensor to detect my movement, then attack.' Dio easily found out her pn as she deflect more rapid firing bullets.
*cnk* *cng* *cnk*
*cng* *cnk* *cng* *cnk*
*cng**cnk**cng*
Waves of emeralds were shot each time she made a move. Agitated, Dio sent a kick, deflecting all the shots back at Kakoyrin's spot.
"Tcgh." She clicked her tongue in annoyance; one shot managed to hit her shoulder. "Alright, you have some talents but that won't be enough. Kakoyrin."
Standing far away from her, at an estimated range of 20 meters. Kakoyrin is on top of a metal beam.
"Through my 20-meter barrier, I can sense both you and your stand." She decred. "Now take this!"
"20-meter emerald spsh!" Glowing, green, gem-like energy projectiles were rapidly unched from all directions, aiming at Dio in the center.
Dio stood still, smiling brightly, she was amused by this action, showing an unbothered attitude. The emerald-like orbs spread out around her do nothing to make her concerned any bit.
"You fool, you shall know that the power of The World is to truly reign over everything!"
In no time at all, the very moment when Hierophant Green's attacks were about to nd.
"ZA WURADO!"
The entire world was stopped, as time has stopped moving in its entirety. Everything, everyone, and the rest of the universe is locked within time. Unable to move. Inside the bck-and-white world of stop time, the only being to move is DIO herself with her stand.
Beaming with an arrogant smile, she throws her cape away. Cutting a yer of barrier.
"You will die not even realizing how you got killed. Kakoyrin!" She decred loudly as she strolled to the redhead.
*Thud*
In a single punch, her fist caved Kakoyrin's chest in. But something was wrong, she paused and quickly jumped away from Kakoyrin.
The flow of time has resumed.
Kakoyrin suddenly spurred a mouthful of blood as her body was violently thrown back and hit a billboard, denting it in with her body.
Now she can see, truly, her fist did connect. Yet, this woman lives.
Narrowing her eyes, 'there' something was protecting her body, it hid underneath her coat.
"You!" She turns to the annoying boy standing beside the old Jostar woman.
The same boy, clutching his stomach area where she punched. 'So this means it was his stand that saved her.' She thought.
Takichi stared at Kakoyrin in relief, his pn worked. He is pced in his stand and uses it as a cushion for when she attacks.
Kakoyrin doesn't look so good right now, he guessed, but it was better than dead. This pn only works due to the fact he knew where she would attack had he not remembered this scene where Dio killed Kakoyrin's male counterpart in the show. She would be a cold body by now.
"I heard about your stand, a very versatile type but no specialty." The blonde woman locked eyes with him, making Takichi flinched. Seeing this, Josane positioned herself between them.
"Why don't you go pick on someone your own size." Diverting the attention on herself, "kiddo, go help Kakoyrin. I distract her for you."
"Distract me ? How on earth are you going to do that ?" She said with a grin that revealed her fang.
"Like this!" The hamon-infused vines of Hermit Purple shot out.
DIO did a simple sideway turn with her body, dodging it. But she wasn't the target, Josane aimed it at a pilr behind her.
Pulling hard, the vine that was embedded in the concrete began to return back with frightening speed.
"Really, some rocks ?" Just the world body frame, by standing still was enough to block the attack on her user.
"Yeah, a rock." The flying fist of Star Pntium was already traveling so close to hitting Dio's head as she moved herself out of the swing.
jojo had catched up with them.
Next was a bright fme that engulfed her shadow, lighting up the city in the pilr of fme.
"You think that was enough ?" Avadol asks Jojo with a look of concern.
"Nope, not one bit." Landing beside her is Jojo, and Ponle is following close. "DIO is really strong, my stand fist didn't hurt her at all."
Each of them is taking a position to surround Dio at the center point, making four corners. They made this formation up to trap Dio and kill her off, with no room for her to escape.
"I see." She knew it as well, there was no way for them to beat her so easily, but sensing the imense malice intent dripping out of her. She had hoped that this was able to damaged her, even if it's just a small bit.
Emerging from the fme, Dio stood in mid-air with a careless look in her eyes as she stared down at the group. Sending cold shivers through each and every one of them.
"You utter fools, you are no match for my stand. By sticking together, you hope you can defeat me ? The great DIO ?!"

(Takumi's pov)
*yawn*
It was the third yawn of the day. Takumi inwardly felt bored. Staying home is fine and all, but it could get so boring at times.
'Could it get less boring ?' He thought jokingly.
And funny enough, the world listens to him in the most twisted of ways.
*ring*
Hearing the ring on the door, Takumi turned to greet the would-be customer. But he choked halfway.
Standing at the desk is a familiar woman with a scar running horizontally on that person's forehead.
"Hello there." Senjaku said with a smile.
Posing elegantly, she pced one hand gently on the table, her fingers lightly tapping against the surface, while she rested her chin delicately on it. Her eyes, however, held an unsettling intensity, staring with an uncomfortably piercing gaze at him.
Takumi was in silence, he was nervous about what to say. His finger flinching to grab a weapon defend himslef.
"Fuuu.....what should i call you this time, hmm ?" Her voice was weirdly seductive, almost pyful.
"How did you find me ?" He stood with a small sound rattling of chain. 'Damn it. I can't run if we fight in here.'
"Getting impatient now are we ? Well, if you must know, there are three factors that let me find out."
"Do tell." Maybe he can draw this out long enough.
"First, you make too much noise. Going around killing curses is the job of the jujutsu society, and they hate anyone who opposes their power. Just a look in their files, and I got a name already."
Takumi really made a mistake on that, he thought he could hide under their radar. But he didn't expect this woman to have someone on the inside of jujutsu society.
"Second, you really think a barrier technique of this level can help you hide from me?" Her smile widens even more, "Sure, it's impressive...for a beginner. But for someone with a little experience like me, this is as simple as making a paper pne."
"And third ?" Senjaku have a small paused at his words, then she turned her face to him. Her smile is wide, with eyes showing a level of unhinged that really creeps him out.
"You really.... and I meant REALLY, caught my attention." She said, "i must know, oh how i want to do experiment on you." Her left hand went uncontrolbly, scratching the stitches on her forehead.
"Then you should know who i live with."
"Oh, I do, which is why I already have someone to...shall we say, keep her busy while you and I work this out."
