Will Zeppeli
JoJo, this creature illustrates a principle. Imagine a miniscule flea, so small that it’s barely visible. Why is it they bite humans who tower over them without a single thought to their own safety? Would you call their behavior “courageous”? Of course not, it’s hunger compelling them.
[Jack charges Zepelli]
Will Zeppeli
I will tell you what courage is, JoJo! Courage is to look your fear in the eye and know that it has no dominion over you! Fear scatters your breathing. When you toss your fear into the dust, breathing is the sword ever at your hip! Breathe with courage and you will never want for Hamon. Bravery is our birthright, lads! And for all the abilities they may bring into a battle, courage is something a zombie relinquished when he took this form! THEY’RE NO BETTER THAN FLEAS! SENDO WAVE KIIIIIIICK!!!
[Damages Jack's face]
Will Zeppeli
A knee to the face seems to made our friend here lose his braggadocio.
He's been watching us for a while now.
Will Zeppeli
Signor Joestar, I presume? And the lass by your side must be Signora Erina Pendleton.
Will Zeppeli
You survived the Stone Mask! Not many can claim that!
[He hits Jonathan in the stomach, causing him to kneel over.]
Will Zeppeli
That's it... Breathe out every last ounce of air in your lungs!
Why? He was wounded already, you cad!
stranger: I knocked the wind out of him, but he'll thank me for it.
Jonathan (while his body full heals): What!? What's happening to my body!? My arm!
Will Zeppeli
Baron Zeppeli, at your service. Courage alone will not defeat the stone mask.
The compound fracture in my arm... it barely hurts anymore! I can even lift this heavy rock!
What did you do!? Who... No, what are you!?
Will Zeppeli
One question at a time, JoJo. It's nothing I did. Your breath quelled your pain on its own. Achoo!
Why did you do this!? How do you even know my- (Zepelli is no where to be seen) He's gone.
Will Zeppeli
What part of "one question at a time" eluded you? Follow me, amigo, and I shall show you. But know this, what you are about to see will change your destiny forever!
Keep an eye out! Sunlight can't protect us in here!
[Speedwagon screams seeing the cabman dead with a severed horse head on his shoulders.]
Is it Dio? It has to be him.
Will Zeppeli
Listen, both of you. Step away from the horses.
[Jack emerges from the body of one of the headless horses]
What in the blue hell?! That crazy blighter's inside a horse! Good God! This one's mad as a hatter! Dio's evil, yeah, but I ain't seen him jump out of any animal so far!
He must be gathering minions, and who knows how many he might have!
Will Zeppeli
Stand aside, my young friends. I'll do the fighting. He is a zombie. They must feed on living flesh to survive. However, they are in constant thrall to their master, not unlike marionettes.
Oh, you lads is both as white as a sheet. All the blood is drained from your faces. Maybe I should cut off those useless heads of yours, and watch it spray out of you necks? (stabs a knife into his face) Now, you milted corpses-to-be, prepare for the carnage!
Will Zeppeli
Tell me, what's his next move? You must think as he does. JoJo, this strategy will serve you in good stead. Ask yourself, what would be the most advantageous thing for my foe to do next? Him, for example. If he blocks off the tunnel's entrance, we can't retreat into the sunlight!
(Jack grabs the carriage)
Will Zeppeli
Just as I predicted, he's blocked our retreat!
[Jack forces knives out from his body.]
Knives are coming out of him!
Baron Zeppeli, you didn't say nothin' about fighting a pincushion!
Will Zeppeli
Hamon Cutter! I'm afraid your blades are rather dull compared by Hamon Cutter.
Will Zeppeli
I leave you this clue, "There were no Vikings in the land of Norway until the North Wind came and created." If you as so much spill a drop of viento....I do not care how well you utterly defeat him, I will abandon you here and now!
Oi! Have you lost your mind!?
Will Zeppeli
I know what I'm doing!
I understand. I will be like Vikings and brave this hardship.
I found you, zombie! Stone wall will not protect you! SENDO HAMON...OVERDRIVE! (channels his Hamon through the wall)
Turn the corner so I can feast on you! (Gets hit by Hamon, knocking him back as his body dissolves)
Zeppeli
It seems you've passed the test with flying colors, JoJo. Boreas has fathered another Viking!
Zeppeli
Uh, well, Speedwagon has been begging me to share in your power. I meant to help him create just a little bit of Hamon as I did that first day with you. It seems I was too rough. Did my finger slip? Un migliaio di scuse (A thousand excuses), my dear Speedwagon.
Speedwagon (groaning): In English, please
[Chasing after Poco.]
Zeppeli
That sounded wonderful, JoJo. I see you've learned the Overdrive well.
So I should stand here, right?
Zeppeli
No, try two paces to the left. Two pounds say I'm right.
Huh? What just shocked me!?
[The boy is grabbed by Jonathan]
Zeppeli
Molto benio
Something's wrong with this boy. Did I overdo it with my Hamon?
Zeppeli
No, It's not just him. Look around us.
[Zombies grab their legs]
Zeppeli
Seems like we're the "nice catch" here. The boy must have been hypnotized.
The sun has set... You will not live to see another!
Zeppeli You must be Dio Brando,wsp my nga. Jonathan and Speedvagon told me about you. To the mask you have in your possession, I say this...I will break you!
Zeppeli
Hey, bambino! Do you really want to fight on such uneven footing? Get down here!
Insect, who do you think you are? I am the pinnacle of all creation... To mere men, I am but a god to them... Do you believe I would lower myself to match a mere man? (projects his hatred as a shockwave that nearly knocks Zepelli off his feet)
Zeppeli I was nearly knocked down with a burst of pure hate. Already this Dio has the presence of tyrant!
Dio(showing off the last of his injuries): The injuries from my battle with JoJo are gone, save for this! Come, charlatan, and relinquish your blood to remove this last imperfection.
Zeppeli
Tell me...To undo your injuries, how many innocent lives did you consume?
I do not know. How many loaves of bread have you eaten in your lifetime?
Zeppeli
!!
[During the fight with the Dark Knight Bruford]
This is itǃǃ The coup de gras -- I shall slice off your head and bathe myself in your life-giving blood!
Zeppeli
What?!
[Bruford swings his sword at Jonathan.]
[Jonathan stops Bruford's sword with his foot.]
Water's not the only thing that conducts Hamonǃ METAL SILVER OVERDRIVEǃǃ
[Disarms Bruford]
Zeppeli
Amazing! He channeled Hamon through Bruford's sword and hoist his pinard!
How my heart resonates! I'm pulsing with heat and life! My very blood is a symphony within me!
[beats the living crap out of Blueford]
Jonathan: SUNLIGHT YELLOW OVERDRIVEE!!
He did it! 'Bout time we heard the crackle of Hamon!
(Monolongue) Bruford...For a moment, I felt something a miss. His past only complicates his current state. Take heart, JoJo. That man is no longer here. He's a zombie who intends to spread his evil! You must be the one to stop him!
I am the Black Knight Bruford! It will take more than pain to stop me!
A moment ago, you said this pain was nothing. That means… pain is something you can feel again.
Zeppeli
The flowers, they’re blooming all around him. Even now, the Hamon ravages the evil that animates Bruford’s long dead corpse. You see, the long-forgotten pain came back. Only humans know that sort of ache. Observe, my dear Speedwagon. His zombie body succumbs to the Hamon, but his noble soul is redeemed in the process.
I have now reached a bizarre peace. I no longer resent this world... How ironic that I granted life anew, only to be struck down with gratitude to the one who fell me a second time... And now I shall return to my true master...I would like to know the name of he who bested me. Would you do me that honor?
BBlueford
Your name, please.
Sir Jonathan... I leave you this sword, given to me by my precious Queen, and the word engraved upon it: luck. [Bruford uses his blood to add a 'P' to the beginning of the word 'luck' engraved onto his sword.] But first, let me affix my own benediction: pluck.
[Bruford dies.]
Tarukus rammed straight into the wall!
Zeppeli
Thank your stars he did. Unlike their master, Dio's minions are not able to regenerate! He will not bother us!
[He sees Tarukus still alive and moving]
Zeppeli
He's nothing more than bloodlust given flesh! Even with his bones smashed to smithereens... He keeps climbing! Our goal is to defeat Dio, but we cannot with Tarukus dogging us like this. He must be dealt with, here and now! JoJo, it's perilous! Take the lad there within!
