"Speaking of which, your name is so strange. I have never heard a name like it before."
In order to take care of Jojo and Dilu, who had just experienced a big battle, and to get as much information as possible from them, everyone returned to a house in the village.
This was originally the place where the zombies lived, but now they have all been killed by Suzuki, which naturally alleviates the housing shortage issue.
Jojo took a sip of water, shook his head and said, "Because I am not from a country in the ninja world."
"We, the Joestar family, have lived on a small island overseas for generations, living a life without disputes with the world. This is not only for refuge, but also to seal the stone ghost mask outside the ninja world forever. But in the end..."
"Dio..." Jiraiya scratched his head, "This guy is troublesome, but a stone ghost mask is such a powerful item. Logically speaking, it should be very famous in the ninja world in the past. Even if the news is sealed, it shouldn't be a little bit... I won’t shed a child either.”
"I don't know much about it either. Many things about the Joestar family have not yet reached my hands, but something like Dio stealing the Stone Ghost mask happened..."
"No... I probably know..." Suzuki was the one who answered, leaning back on his chair, looking thoughtful.
"?You said you know about the stone ghost mask?!" Jiraiya was shocked
Jojo also looked incredulous and said, "The news about the stone ghost mask should be kept by the Joestar family..."
However, Suzuki said with a matter-of-fact expression.
"No matter what kind of prop it is, it must have a source."
"In the history preserved by our Shichibukai, there has been a history of disasters similar to those caused by the ability of the Stone Demon Mask."
Everyone waited with bated breath, looking at them Suzuki continued without hiding anything.
"In an era too far away to be inspected, when humans had not yet determined their own biological dominance, there was such a race."
"They are born with strength and speed that surpass humans. Even creatures like tigers and elephants are no match for them. Humans also worship them because of this power, and even respect them as gods."
"But this race is afraid of sunlight, and they can only move around at night. In order to overcome this shortcoming and become the ultimate creature, a genius in this race began to embark on the path of fighting nature."
"The records disappeared after that, but in my opinion, it should have failed, and even the entire race was destroyed as a result."
This is also a normal thing. For Jiraiya who believes in fate and nature, it is always impossible to fight against fate.
Everyone is rowing in the lake of fate. If you lose your way, fate will create waves for you to guide you forward. But if you want to escape from this lake, then fate will not allow it, and the final outcome will definitely be counterattacked by fate.
He came back to his senses and said, "You can only live at night, which is indeed in line with the characteristics of a vampire."
"You mean that although the genius failed, he created the stone ghost mask before he died? In order to continue the existence of the tribe?"
"I don't know the specific situation, but it might be too reckless to judge the genius as a failure based on this information." Suzuki disagreed.
"Listening to what Jojo said before, Dio has obviously made some new discovery. Perhaps there is some information left in the stone ghost face that allows him to perfect what the genius failed to do tens of millions of years ago."
"Yes, Dior is not a person who does useless work." Jojo also nodded in agreement.
Silence fell in the room, and they knew in their hearts that Dio must be strangled in the cradle as soon as possible, otherwise a war would be inevitable.
Striking while the iron is hot, Naoto also brought the matter of demonic energy to the table.
At his signal, Suzuki said, "And I suspect that it has something to do with the demonic energy we want to collect."
!
Sure enough, this sentence immediately attracted Jiraiya.
After all, demonic energy is his mission. If he can collect all the demonic energy while solving Dio, that would be great!
But... He glanced at Suzuki cryptically
After all, as far as he knew, the Eight Demonic Energy was what the Shichibukai were collecting, and even they followed Suzuki and came here.
If the Shichibukai would just let out the demonic energy obediently, I wouldn't believe it if I beat him to death.
They were able to sit here and talk calmly because they determined that the matter they were dealing with had nothing to do with demonic energy, and because Dio's ability posed a threat to them.
But he put his demonic energy on the stage so openly...
However, he remained silent in the end. The Shichibukai's understanding of demonic energy far surpassed that of any other force, and he was eager to get some information from them.
Suzuki didn't care about Jiraiya's inner activities. He looked at Jilu and asked
"You said that Dio suddenly became stronger not long ago, and his strength and speed doubled, right?"
"Yes... yes." Di Lu said a little nervously
Although Chiriku, who was still young, didn't know Suzuki's identity, he understood Suzuki after seeing that even the legendary ninja Jiraiya-sama in his heart was treated as an equal, and after witnessing the scene where all the zombies were wiped out in an understatement. Definitely a boss you can't mess with.
"As far as I know, in addition to giving the user corresponding special abilities, demonic energy will also strengthen the individual's physical fitness." He pointed at Naoto and Shisui.
"Itachi of your Uchiha clan was briefly possessed by the demonic energy of fire, so he should understand this."
"Well..." Naoto replied calmly, "But because the time was too short, Itachi was not very clear about the changes in his body."
Suzuki raised the corners of his mouth slightly, stretched out a finger and said
"The increase of a single magic energy is doubled, which means that Dio, whose strength was similar to that of Jilu before, was only a stronger chuunin, but after the increase of magic energy, he may have the strength of a general special jounin, and can It’s no surprise that he easily defeated Jilu.”
Jiraiya couldn't help but said, "I didn't expect you to say it like that."
"As I said, the Shichibukai is not a terrorist organization."
"Now our common enemy is Dio, how about we wait until we defeat him first to talk about the demonic energy?"
Jiraiya took a deep look at Suzuki and laughed.
"I think so too!"
He used a medium and a little toad appeared in his hand and spat out a letter.
"We can't let you steal the spotlight. This is the information we just got in Konoha. Let's take a look."
As early as when Suzuki had just finished dealing with the zombies, he passed some information to Mt. Myoboku through necromancy and handed it over to Minato. With Konoha's war machine running at full speed, the entire Fire Country was in their eyes. It can be said that there is no secret, and some information about Dio was quickly obtained.
"Dio is located thirty miles east of here. He occupies an abandoned military base. It is observed that there are at least a hundred ninjas inside, and two other members of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen were also found. Are there any others? Powerful ninjas don't know."
"We must destroy him as soon as possible, otherwise Dio will only become stronger and stronger as time goes by!"
"I agree. With our speed, we can still arrive before dawn and try to eradicate Dio today!"
