Chapter 210: Running with Time
Finally, there was only one bullet left.
Now Mista is in an awkward situation:
If he shoots, there is a 100% chance that the last bullet will be dodged by Shi Ke, and Polnareff will die.
If he didn't shoot, the Crimson King would kill in a second, and Polnareff would still die.
It was useless to do anything, and what was worse was that the situation was so tense that he had no time to think of countermeasures.
Fortunately, there is Giorno.
When Mista was at a loss, the wave of vines created by Golden Experience earlier finally took advantage of the precious time created by the bullet attack and spread wildly along the ancient walls of the Colosseum to the second floor.
As it grows, the wild sound of the vines surging continues.
It was like a tide surging in the darkness.
These vines, which could only be seen as a dark shape under the dim light, now looked like a bunch of tangled, constantly wriggling pythons.
They bared their fangs and claws, danced wildly, and like a tide, they passed over the stone pillars and guardrails and covered every inch of space around them.
The dark shadows of vines clung to the floor, the stone pillars, and the entire surface of the ancient building.
Finally, these vines gradually gathered into a huge wave as they grew, and then rushed heavily towards where Diablo was standing.
But Diablo was not afraid, of course he was not afraid.
Because the growth rate of these vines that have been accelerated by life energy is still limited.
Diablo himself could barely see it clearly, but in the eyes of the Crimson King who shared senses with him, it was as ridiculous as a slow motion video.
Diablo obviously would not be hurt by such an attack.
In order to save precious mental energy, he didn't even use Time Slash. He just let the Crimson King pull him to the side and jumped lightly. He then easily avoided the seemingly huge and unstoppable wave of vines.
And the capabilities of the Golden Experience obviously have limits.
Giorno can indeed stimulate the rapid growth of plants, but it is still too much effort to create such a grand scene and allow the sea of vines to spread over a distance of more than ten meters in just a few seconds to launch an attack.
After a round of attacks failed, he was no longer able to encourage the vines to continue growing.
Being able to grow the vines to this size has already reached his limit.
"Is that all?"
Looking at the sea of vines in front of him that was stuck like a sculpture, Diablo smiled.
In his eyes, Giorno's performance was far worse than Mista's.
And that is exactly what is happening:
Mista's Sexy Pistol can also rely on "Precision Guidance" to force Diablo to use a skill.
But since Giorno has no long-range attack capabilities and cannot perfectly control the actions of animals, he can only manipulate plants to perform such simple and crude attacks.
This weak version of "Wood Release" can probably only delay a little bit of time.
"If only..."
"That's all over - King Crimson!"
Diablo shouted loudly.
The Crimson King raised his sword high in the air, with a terrifying amount of power accumulating between his tense muscles.
Giorno stood there helplessly, his expression stiff, seeming to be at a loss as to what to do.
Mista gripped the pistol tightly, wondering whether he should fire the last, useless bullet.
Polnareff raised his head with great effort and glared at his enemy.
He already knew that he would die in the next second.
However, there was still no despair or fear in his eyes.
These words had long disappeared from his dictionary after years of fighting. Polnareff already knew what death and sacrifice were in Egypt more than a decade ago.
"Diabolo."
"Your evil plan will never come to fruition."
"Your sinful and ugly life, like that of a sick rat, will definitely be ended by my best friend, Jotaro Kujo!"
Polnareff stared at Diavolo coldly, as if he was looking at a dead man.
"Yeah?"
“Haha…hahahahaha.”
Diablo smiled disdainfully.
As he laughed, there was a hint of anger in his mockery:
"Jotaro, Jotaro, shut up!"
"I, Diablo, the king of the underworld, will never be scared by a mere name!"
"Take a look—"
Amidst the angry roar, the Crimson King slashed down with his sword:
"I'm about to chop your lifelong friend in half, where is the invincible Jotaro now?!"
“Here!”
A light shout suddenly rang out.
There was a rare tremor in the voice, and underneath the tremor was endless anger.
But what really shocked Diablo was...
The voice was behind him!
It was very close to him!
"What?"
"How is it possible... that bastard came so soon?!"
"Can he, can he teleport?!"
Diablo's heart suddenly pumped, and the blood pumping out almost burst his blood vessels.
Then, an unprecedented fear took over my mind at the speed of light.
The Crimson King immediately received an order that was completely different from the one he received half a second ago:
"Run, run quickly, run while shaving time!"
The knife that was about to smash Polnareff's head was stuck in mid-air.
There was no time to even kill anyone, and the Crimson King directly started the time-slashing under the crazy urging of his main body.
This is really not Diablo's cowardice.
For him, this is the wisest choice.
Since they had an indirect feud many years ago because of Polnareff, Diavolo had of course spent a lot of time in recent years investigating the intelligence of Jotaro, a potential enemy.
All the information he had collected previously indicated that the perverted stand named Star Platinum could not only stop time, but also hit people during the stopped time.
what does that mean?
This means that once the enemy is approached by Star Platinum and time is stopped, they won't even know how they died.
And now, the sound was so close.
It was obvious that this evil star had unknowingly approached him.
Of course, Diablo had no other choice.
He could only try his best to get into the time cut before someone else stopped his time.
Enemies in the Time-Slashed state can only act unconsciously, and Jotaro probably won't be able to use his Stand ability during the time he's being shattered.
After all, in order to survive the invincible Star Platinum, Diablo must seize the initiative and then quickly create a long enough safe distance.
He responded promptly.
The first move was successfully taken, and the time reduction was activated.
Diablo didn't even dare to look back, and hurriedly ran away.
He ran for about 7 or 8 meters and felt that the distance was close enough. Then he finally calmed down and looked back at his powerful enemy.
This look made the situation even more serious.
If he could see where the enemy was, his escape plan would most likely succeed.
But Jotaro was so elusive that one could only hear his voice but not see him.
Diablo only saw walls, stone pillars, and vague black shadows, and had no idea where Jotaro was standing.
"How could this happen...he's gone missing?"
"I have already activated the time cut, is it possible that he can still move freely?"
The invisible enemy was even more frightening, and Diablo was so nervous that he couldn't breathe.
He was already a little out of breath:
The previous one long cut and five short cuts were already extremely exhausting, and now he was suddenly frightened by Jotaro's appearance and was suddenly cut for a long time, which made the consumption of his mental energy even more serious.
What's worse is that even though he knew it was operating at overload, he didn't dare to turn it off at this time.
After all, Diablo has never really fought Jotaro face to face.
Jotaro is also a time-player after all, what if he can still maintain consciousness in the time-breaker?
Who can guarantee it?
Maybe he would just yell something like "seems to be a stand of the same type" and then catch up with us inexplicably using the Time Cut?
Facing a world-famous invincible man, Diablo, who was only concerned about his invincibility, had to act with utmost caution.
There was no other way. He could only maintain his "invincibility buff" with overload while trying his best to search for Jotaro Kujo's presence in the dim scene before him.
Then, he saw it.
Diablo was no mediocre person, he saw it quickly:
He saw where he had just stood, on the dimly lit ground, among the vines growing on the ground and gathering together, there was actually...
Wrapped in a mobile phone.
The screen of the mobile phone was wrapped tightly, but the faint fluorescence on it still seeped through the gaps in the vines .
It was obvious that the phone was in working order - on a call.
"cell phone?"
Diablo's expression instantly became extremely stiff.
The voice of Jotaro just now seemed to come from the location of the mobile phone.
The cell phone was tightly wrapped in vines and hidden very well.
This vine was deliberately grown by Giorno, spreading all the way from the ground.
That is to say…
The cell phone was secretly delivered to him by Giorno.
I'm afraid that call was also made secretly by Giorno before he took action.
Jotaro answered the phone in seconds and heard Diablo's shouting on the other end of the phone. Of course, he knew what he should say.
In the final analysis, to put it simply...
"I was fooled?"
Diablo, who had just used up all his skills by rolling the keyboard, had a complicated expression on his face.
Looking at his "skill box" which was temporarily entering cooldown, his mentality was slightly broken.
