Magical Girl Illya World.
"Don't lose!!! Don't lose!!!" Illya shouted. At this moment, she could also feel Joseph's sense of despair.
He was too strong; the enemy he faced was simply too powerful.
It was the kind of enemy that was completely impossible to match, but Illya felt he shouldn't give up!!! Quickly, think of a way to overcome this crisis.
"Will there be... a miracle?"
Miyu watched the agitated Illya and also murmured to herself as she looked at Joseph in the video.
She couldn't help but recall her own most desperate moment, when her brother saved her and sent her away from that world.
She believed that her brother must have gone through immense hardship and fought unimaginable enemies to win the Holy Grail War and let her leave that world.
Now, watching the video, Miyu looked at the despairing Joseph and still held onto a glimmer of hope.
That he could defeat this existence called the Ultimate Life Form.
Humanity would not lose to something like this.
Miyu believed this, so at that moment, her hands involuntarily clasped together in a prayer-like posture.
Naruto World, Konoha Village.
"Is it already over? That guy with a voice so similar to Kakashi's is about to face the final blow."
Sasuke silently deactivated his Two-Tomoe Sharingan. He took a deep breath and looked at the young Joseph. "I can't see any hope of victory anymore."
"How can you know the ending until the very last moment?!" Naruto countered. He didn't think Joseph was definitely going to lose.
On the contrary, as long as Joseph wasn't dead, it meant there was still a chance to win.
"Hmph." Sasuke snorted. He didn't say much else because he was also wondering if the 'God-tier Reversal' in the title referred to Kars jumping out of the lava earlier.
Or if it referred to when Joseph crashed the flying machine into Kars.
Or perhaps the God-tier reversal plot was still to come?
Sasuke didn't know, so he didn't rush to argue with Naruto. He just stated his view; it wouldn't be too late to prove Naruto wrong once the video finished playing.
"Is this the final blow that decides the outcome?" Kakashi also watched Kars and Joseph in the video.
He also felt in his heart that Joseph was doomed, but for some reason, he felt as if he had seen Joseph somewhere before.
A previous video? Or in the comments section?
Too many things had been happening in Konoha lately, and Kakashi was so busy he didn't even have time to read Make-Out Paradise.
So for a moment, he couldn't recall where he had seen the man, but he felt strangely familiar.
"The final outcome is about to appear." Jiraiya was also looking forward to it. Would Kars succeed in killing Joseph, or would Joseph come up with some way to dodge Kars's attack and start a counterattack?
However, Jiraiya soon shook his head, thinking it unlikely. At this stage, without a miracle...
It was simply impossible to defeat that being called Kars.
In the JoJo World, both Dios Castle and the Stardust Crusaders held their breath.
They weren't fools; they knew the final moment was coming.
The video continued playing.
After the despairing Joseph said those words in his heart, the narrator from before reappeared.
"JoJo accepted it quite easily."
"He felt no fear, no pain, and no regret."
"'I've done everything I can,' he thought."
"In the face of overwhelming evil, his eyes were as cold as ice, calmly watching his impending death."
The camera cut to Straizo. His face was tense, and sweat slowly rolled down his cheeks.
The narrator continued to describe Straizo's inner thoughts.
"Straizo felt the same."
"Unable to move, Straizo felt as though he understood exactly how a frog feels when being swallowed alive by a snake."
Thump!!
At that moment, Kars took a step forward. A different kind of energy surfaced on his body as he began to breathe deeply.
This was the Hamon/ripple Breathing Technique.
Buzz, buzz, buzz—!!!
Hamon/ripple energy enveloped Kars. At this moment, his aura was terrifying. The Hamon/ripple breathing that could originally make one feel warmth...
...was now being transformed in his hands into an energy move to annihilate others.
"So this is the Breathing Technique." Kars wore a smile that was hard for an ordinary person to comprehend. He knew this Breathing Technique inside and out.
In a distant era, he had slaughtered the people who possessed this Breathing Technique to prevent them from passing it down.
But in the modern era, Hamon/ripple warriors with this Breathing Technique had appeared again, and they had even killed his friends and subordinates.
"Hehehe." Kars chuckled as he looked at the despairing Joseph nearby. He said, "In the ceremony that will push you, a Hamon/ripple warrior, into the dark abyss of death..."
Swish—!!!
Kars spread his arms with a cruel smile. Blood-red, lightning-like Hamon/ripple appeared in his hands. He looked at Joseph and said, "...using this Hamon/ripple is most appropriate!!!"
Zzzzzzt—!!!
Red Hamon/ripple flickered on Kars's fingertips.
Joseph was gasping for air. He couldn't help but think, "Hamon/ripple."
"Ooooooooooh—!!!" Kars raised his hand, the Hamon/ripple charging up.
Joseph thought to himself, 'Hamon/ripple hundreds of times stronger than mine!!'
"Melt away and flow into the bottomless valley of death!!!!" As soon as Kars finished speaking, he thrust his hand out, and that Hamon/ripple with blood-red lightning struck toward Joseph.
'Hamon/ripple...'
Joseph's words appeared on the black screen... along with a stone emitting a red light with a cross shape in the middle.
Clang—!!
And in Joseph's hand, a red stone appeared. This red stone was exactly the one he had picked up from the ground just now.
And this red stone was precisely the essential item that had helped Kars become the Ultimate Life Form.
Boom—!!!
With a loud sound, Kars's hand, carrying the hundreds-of-times-stronger red lightning Hamon/ripple, was about to land on this red stone.
?!!!
Kars showed an expression of extreme surprise.
Joseph had a look of utter confusion.
Straizo's eyes widened, as if he didn't know how to process the situation before him for a moment.
"What?!" Kars shouted in great surprise. "The Red Stone?!!!"
Although Kars was shocked, there was no time for surprise. By the time he realized it, his hand had already struck the red stone.
Boom—!!!!
Massive Hamon/ripple energy poured into the red stone, turning into a terrifying red laser that pierced through the rock and sped toward the depths of the earth.
At this moment, everyone's eyes widened because they had completely forgotten that Joseph had such a thing in his hand.
