JoJo's Bizarre Adventure - Phantom Paradox (Audiobook Edition)

Pucci, before I leave you, I have only one special request for you. So, for my final request to you as an ascended god, please...tell my servants that I will miss them...especially you.

his is what you get for killing baron Zeppeli in the first place. Even though his fate was already sealed, the lady of destiny gave him another chance to live. In other words, I reversed the hands of fate and set it upon your heartless soul, Taruskus.

This ends here and now, Dio. You don't belong in this world, even if I tried to save JoJo's fortune from the likes of you before the past incidents you are about to unfold! 

You were apparently going to perish all of humanity and create an immortal crusade! 

Even with your heartless words, mankind will suffer even more from your forsaken immortality! 

I, Demetrio Brando will no longer hold back for the sake of what has been done! I swear that we will put an end to this plague until the dawn! 

Sunlight Yellow Overdrive Fortissimo!

You must be Dio Brando, right? 

Please, call me JoJo. It's nice to meet you. 

Dio, I didn't know that you have a twin brother.

I know that you didn't mean to emotionally lose your mind; sometimes, people lose their tempers whenever someone is about to do something terrible...just like you said. My father used to act like this when the other boys taunted him and ruined his day...that was before he learned to play the violin to ease out his anger. He didn't know how to control it until he met my mother at the age of fourteen. As love sprang for the two of them, his temper subsided into a wisp of pure serenity. My father told me how he met her when I was five and since then, I began to think about her still being there for me if she was alive. Dmitri...don't cry just because it was your fault for coming here.You came here because you cared about me more than I can remember...just think about the time that you helped me win that boxing match...you did so much that would make me feel happy...

Dmitri, don't let these thoughts corrupt you. You will only make it worse the more you think about them. Just try and breathe through it and you'll be fine. Trust me; I know that we are in the same nightmare, but at least that you have me and my comrades that you saved. You're going to be okay as long as you try to control your thoughts.

Oh, so you heard about Jojo's dearest Erina, huh? Now you want to frame me for something I haven't done yet; wouldn't you agree?

And what if you end up like your futile comrades, all struggling with only their arid arm and lacking a way to circulate their hamon through their veins?

Useless useless useless! Your hamon has no chance against my immortal dominance! Now that I stripped you from your futile weapon, it's time that you meet your end!

He's feeling much better. His left arm is a little sore based on the looks of it. Maybe we should check on him.

After the date, I've met Dmitri while you were gone. He had a severe headache that evening, so I took him to the nearest hospital so my mother would try and treat it. She told the poor boy to take a nap since it was the only way to cure any headaches, but she didn't know what type of headache it was because it was unusual for her.

Well, I have to get going. I'm going to travel to India since I wanted to explore its unique culture. I will make sure I'll bring some souvenirs when I return.

JoJo, aren't you going to take your guests on a tour around the mansion?

No, I think you should keep what you save. I originally played this violin since 1863, back when I studied about the Baroque era. The sounds coming from this beautiful instrument brought me a sense of nostalgia...it feels as if I had something warning up my heart and soul from above. Seven years ago when you arrived, I would always hear the sounds of bliss muffling right next to my room and remember how I used to perform these pieces you played. Now that you saved this instrument from the flaming debris, I want you to cherish it with all of your heart.

It's been a while, my son.

Hey, Jojo the Squealer! What ya got there?

Ooh, how's your moment with that cute girl?

Did you kissed her? Or maybe you just wanted to tell her how you feel!

The name is Robert E.O. Speedwagon. I had a hunch that Jonathan's run of trouble might not be done, so I followed him back home.

I took a peek inside the room and saw Erina Pendelton healing JoJo's wounds. When JoJo recognized her as the childhood sweetheart, it was a heartfelt reunion for the two of them.

I didn't kiss you, baron; besides I heard that medics in the late 1700s used this technique to transfer oxygen to their patients when they were drowning.

Ah, signore Joestar, and the lass at your side is signorina Pendleton. As well as... 

Why is Dio here with the two of you and why is he not disintegrating in the sunlight?

Don't you know that I'm a married man? Well, at least you woke me up from the hands of the fated mistress.

Attention! 

Left face! 

Right face! 

About face! 

Il mio armata di rane, this will be our most fiercest fight we have ever fought. Even though we will lose one comrade to another, we'll still fight through the pain and defeat this monster no matter what!

The man of music have found my dearest friends. I was so happy to see them again after the sound of pure serenity brought us back into one piece. It was like a harmonic reunion that I never experienced in forever since I drew my first breath. And so as a gift of our gratitude, I would like to help you defeat the monster of pure anguish until the dawn.

Zeppeli! Now it's your chance to finish him off!

No, thank you and the man of the music.

W-what are you talking about?

My sister went missing! I thought that she was home, but I don't know where in the world is she!

That was amazing! I wouldn't know how the man played the violin so beautifully!

I couldn't believe you are still alive despite the fact that fate controls your destiny, Will.

You fell for it, fool! Thunder Cross Split Attack!

Save the hugs for later, Dire.

Woah woah woah, Zeppeli. Easy there, I'm sensitive to hugs.

Greetings to you all.

It appears that sometimes my age gets the best of my predictions at times. It's rare for me to mispredict a hamon pupil; usually my predictions are always correct.

Step aside, let the master handle this.

(With disgust and fear)

You wear the flesh, but you're not a man! Devil, go away!

(Cries in relief)

Poco!

(Angrily)

She was bloody furious! She's gonna lock you and turn your hide!

(Mocking sarcasm)

What ye want with me?

Tch, fine. As long as it's short and sweet.

W-where are these pests coming from!?

Come to me, fools! You think your hamon will do any good?

HOW DID MY HANDS GET DECAPITATED FROM MY WRISTS!?

What a pathetic story you have in store for us, you defensive whelp! What are you going to do to have this mutt, huh? Are you going to make them live a pitiful happily ever after!?

So be it! Now it's time for us to play rough!

I'm sorry to hear about that, my lord... I didn't expect you to feel this way.

My lord, if you change the past because of your mistakes, then you'll have some consequences regarding your ascension.

Are you sure you want to do this?

He's looking stronger lately.
