02 - The Lost Joestar Bloodline

Naples, Italy; Present

"By the way Giorno, before you hung up I would like to tell you about a man who might be able to help you." Koichi rushedly said before Giorno hung up the call.

Giorno Giovanna, currently the leader of the mafia called Passione, was tasked to find someone related to the Joestar bloodline in southeast Asia. The problem he is currently facing is what exactly is the country where the man they are looking for is currently at.

After the phone call was cut a day ago since Hirose Koichi called, he was contacted again by the man himself to give him further instructions. All of those instructions are written in a notepad which Giorno hid under his shirt.

"Help us, huh?"

Around him were the people who he trusted the most - Mista and Trish were sitting on a sofa and watching an afternoon show while they're taking their time having a siesta after a long week of work.

"Hey, Giorno, do you think this man that this Hirose Koichi mentioned is trustworthy?" Mista suddenly raised the question that bothers the mind of Giorno too.

"That's right, Giorno. We already have our men, equipped with an advanced class of weapons and a capo with an overwhelming stand." Trish added.

It's true, they alone can handle this but the problem is not there. The problem itself lays at where they can find this guy. No matter how many times Giorno think of it, he can only imagine that the only thing that can help them is the ability to spot someone where he is currently right now. Somewhat like connected to the satellite.

A knock was heard outside the room.

"Boss, we have a, guest?" the guard said as he took a peek inside the room.

The question remarks made by the guard gave a doubt about the person who came to visit. They must be the people whom Koichi said earlier.

"That was fast," Giorno told himself.

"Let him in," Mista ordered the guard to let the man behind the door go inside.

After Mista ordered the guard to let the man behind the door go in, a little girl appeared in front of them who seemed to be in around 10 to 12.

"Yo! Are you the one whom I'll be meeting today?" the little girl asked Mista who was standing in front of her.

Mista doesn't know how to respond to the little girl's question so he turned to Giorno. He gave him a doubtful look where it made the little girl to turn to Trish to ask her the same question. This time, Trish answered her.

"The one you are looking for is that man," she said as she pointed her fingers to Giorno.

"Oh, so you are the Giorno guy huh? Koichi told me that you are the one that I will talk to."

The little girl turned to Giorno and hand him a piece of photo paper.

"The name's Shizuka. Shizuka Joestar." she finally introduced herself to Giorno.

"That picture you are holding is the picture of a guy who we just found out to be the lost Joestar we've been looking for years. We are not yet certain whose Joestar he came from but it's for sure that he bears the blood of a Joestar. You, yourself should know about the star birthmark on your back, right Giorno?"

Giorno Giovanna, son of DIO and a biological son of Joseph Joestar , was shocked about the things this Shizuka girl told them. Nobody, not even Mista and Trish knew about Giorno's birthmark yet this girl knew of it.

"How did you know it?" he asked those words that came from his mind.

"Hmph, it's easy. You are a descendant of the Joestar family so you should've the birthmark of course. In my case, I am not blood related to the Joestars but Joseph Joestar adopted me when I was a kid." Shizuka explained to him as briefly as she can manage.

The picture that was given to Giorno was made out of the stand ability of Joseph Joestar, Hermit Purple. Even though it's not yet sure about its origin, that's the closest answer to this mystery.

"We've already tracked his whereabouts. According to our sources, he is situated in Philippines and he goes by the name Johan Jovanni 'JoJo' Mariano. It will be a piece of cake for us to look for him." Shizuka claimed confidently.

"So, are the four of us enough to make contact with this guy?" Mista asked to Shizuka.

As soon as Mista asked, Shizuka made a doubtful look at him.

"I doubt I will be able to go with you. In exchange for that, there's a guy with me who might be of some help. And don't worry, Koichi-kun greatly respect this man." as soon as Shizuka said all of those, a man in white shirt appeared beside her.

"Oh! This is my Stand's ability. It enables me and my surroundings to turn into invisible." she added.

"My name's Rohan Kishibe, it's a pleasure meeting y'all." the man in white introduced himself.
