Chapter 188. I Hope to Tell You About Our Heavenly Father and Savior

---

Exaggerating? 

Not at all.

Stand users are just that tricky. 

Only Stand users can see Stands, which means that on Earth, no one can prove the culprit is them. 

And once they're arrested with trumped-up charges, it essentially destroys the order of law. 

That's why Jotaro said back then that he would act as the judge. 

Because when the law cannot bring justice to the people involved, private revenge becomes justified, even noble. 

In a situation where Stand users trample on the law at will, doing whatever they want without fear of consequences, Stand users would naturally turn to a life of crime. They might even feel it's natural that they should rule and dominate the weaker humans. 

After all, you can't expect humans to befriend monkeys. 

Except humans are slightly more advanced than monkeys. 

Even if Stand users want to act recklessly, they rely on the fact that humans cannot perceive Stands and won't dare to break boundaries by using brute force against them. 

Otherwise, a mere barrage of firepower would be enough to take down most Stand users. 

That's why most Stand users stay low-key. 

Unlike Iggy, who directly used his Stand's power to become the king of dogs, until the SPW Foundation found him and subdued him. 

This is also why N'Doul believed Iggy could understand him. 

Could they really be so similar? 

Yes, very similar! 

Except Iggy isn't human. 

But in every other way, including being punished by a higher power, they're exactly the same! 

Unlike Iggy, who resisted the SPW Foundation with nonviolent disobedience, and thanks to Joseph's personality, the SPW Foundation didn't abuse animals or mistreat Iggy, N'Doul felt deeply what it meant to experience a force beyond human charm! 

"That person is far too powerful, profound, majestic, and beautiful... And in this world, it was that person who first recognized my value..." 

N'Doul trembled, his face flushed as he said, "At that moment, I understood. I was born to meet that person..."

It was as if an octopus grabbed a diver just to say, "Excuse me, sir, can I have a moment of your time? I hope to tell you about our Heavenly Father and Savior, Cthulhu." 

That was N'Doul's state of mind.

After realizing he couldn't complete the task DIO gave him, his heart was left with only his faith in DIO, and the instinct of a believer to draw others into DIO's faith. 

"Death isn't frightening... but I absolutely don't want to be abandoned by that person, to be executed by him..." 

"Even villains need a savior for villains!"

N'Doul's last words were forever imprinted in Jotaro's mind. 

Because this was the first time... No, not the first time. 

Whether it was the first assassin, who tried to drag them all down in a manual plane crash after failing to kill them, [Tower of Gray], or Enyaba, who was killed by Dan using [Lovers], and still didn't reveal any information about DIO until the end, it had already hinted at this fact.

But [Tower of Gray] only gave up after the mission failed, resigning to death. 

And Enyaba wasn't so fierce as to commit suicide. 

Only N'Doul, with such firm resolve, akin to that of a fanatic, proved his loyalty and madness toward DIO through his suicide.

He completely overturned Joseph's previous statement that DIO only brainwashed people through the use of flesh buds, like some failed art student using cheat methods. 

DIO... 

"What kind of man is this DIO, who can incite fanatics to leap into the fire?" 

Watching N'Doul finally breathe his last, Jotaro, for the first time, wanted to truly understand this man.

But to the audience, who also saw this scene, their feelings were entirely different. 

Because now, the audience no longer wondered, "Why did N'Doul go so far for DIO? Was he brainwashed by DIO using flesh buds?"

These questions, which had been answered, were replaced by only fear and dread! 

The DIO they thought they knew best, in the current timeline of "Stardust Crusaders," aside from DIO himself, even Joseph from the Joestar family couldn't know DIO better than the audience. 

Yet now, it felt as if they were seeing and understanding DIO for the first time, experiencing a surreal sense of disbelief?!

"Is this still the DIO I know?" 

Sora couldn't help but ask this on 2CH. 

"Is the person N'Doul spoke of really DIO?" 

No one could answer Sora's question. 

Not even his sister Shiro.

It wasn't just because emotional manipulation wasn't Shiro's strong suit. 

But because the DIO N'Doul spoke of was vastly different from the DIO they knew. 

In "Phantom Blood," DIO controlled the zombies, because the vampire essence injected into them affected their brains.

It changed their perceptions, turning a mother who desperately protected her child into a monster that wanted to devour it.

Such cheating tactics couldn't be counted as DIO's personal charm.

But in just a hundred years, from "Phantom Blood" to "Stardust Crusaders", DIO could now make a villain, whose instinct was murder and robbery, willingly die for him without using vampiric methods or flesh buds?

It wasn't just Shiro who couldn't predict this. 

No one else could have anticipated such an absurd result either! 

L: "Actually, there have been hints. Whether it's Avdol's memories of DIO or Polnareff's, they both mentioned feeling an unusual sense of peace when approaching DIO."

L: "That's probably why N'Doul and the others were willing to die for DIO. They didn't want to lose that sense of peace."

KO NO DIO: "It sounds crazy, but... as expected of DIO! He easily achieved what we couldn't!" 

Not Wearing It is Really Cool: "Even though the post above is joking, that might be the truth. DIO is the savior of villains because the savior of villains is DIO..."
