Hope walked into the infirmary of his ship to see Joseph come out of it.

"Yo, Joseph. Hope the stuff Mikan's giving you is enough to halt that ring around your heart until we locate Wamuu." Hope said.

"Not by much. It's only got a day before it completely dissolves. Unless a time restart happens or something, I am done for." Joseph said.

"The RTTP does seem to restart the rings effects and time. Hopefully, there is a chance to use it." Hope said.

"So, this is where I find you, Joseph." a voice said as the two saw a young man with a bandana standing in the doorway.

"Caesar!" Joseph said.

"'You waste time here instead of out searching like we are?" Caesar said.

"Okay, I dunno what kinda rivalry you guys have, but…" Hope said.

"Wait, I know you. You're the one who was part of the reason my grandfather is dead." Caesar said.

"Your...grandfather?" Hope asked.

'"My name...is Caesar Antonio Zeppeli!" Caesar said.

"Y-youre William A. Zeppeli's Grandson...I-I… I'm so sorry he perished. He went out giving his power to Gajeel and Jonathan." Hope said. "If you dont believe me, you can take it up with Jexi."

"Jexi was responsible back then. His family gave the report of his death to me. I have no grudge with him. Just the rest of you." Caesar said.

"Look, you can be mad at him all you can, Ceaser." Joseph said. "But you should know hes dependable. They helped me with fighting Esidisi and as it turns out, these guys are really-"

"I do not care. I've come to tell you that while you are lazing off, me and Lisa Lisa have been searching all over this world. I only came to see you before I headed to the US." Caesar said.

"To do what?" Joseph asked.

"Searching for the Pillar Men. We know they will come after Lisa Lisa eventually, so we have decided to search different parts of the worlds. She is in South America, I'm going to the US." Caesar said.

"Dont assume I care about Josephs well being. I dont want him to die because of me." Hope said. "If that happened, who will be in the next generation? The family that helped my friend all those years ago?"

Jonathan and William Zeppeli appeared, back turned to them.

"Jonathan… he was brave and never surrendered even when facing Dio under immeasurable odds. For me to see the start of that generation… I dont want It to end here." Hope said.

Caesar just remained silent as he walked out on them.

"I gotta go after him." Hope said running out.

Meanwhile…

"So the Comet VG-724 is close to passing our planet today. Of course if this comet were to crash into it, it would be a massive extinction event for all. Luckily, the comet will only be about 2 million Kilometers from Earth." a news reporter said.

"Can you believe that? A comet that size passing Earth? I find it hard to believe." Twilight said.

"It is becoming more believable...every time you repeat it to us." Rarity said.

"Did you guys hear? Will's descendant showed up and blames us for his demise." Hope said.

"Yeah, we don't really care about that. We're more into this comet right now." Natsu said. "Heh. I could shatter that thing if I were in space and could breathe without air."

"No way. I could beat that big rock with a Gum-Gum Pistol!" Luffy said.

"You guys are idiots. First off. Have you even figured out how youre gonna get into space to break the thing. And second, none of us can even breathe in space." Twilight said.

"Uh….a really big fishbowl?" Natsu said.

"Ugh. Only these guys could mess with science." Twilight sighed.

Alarms then blared.

"That doesn;t sound good." Hope sid.

"Uh oh." Twilight said looking at her computer. "This just came from my space chat group. Apparently the comet's changed course. Its now….heading straight for us!"

"What? But who would want us and factory outta the way unless…" Luffy said.

"You even have to ask that question?" Hope asked.

"Nope, its XANA." Sunset said.

"He mustve hacked into the defense satellite and broke it apart." Hope said.

They watched as the large comet was slowly blocking out the sun.

"Hold on. There's reports of something else falling with the comet pieces. It seems to be something….organic?" Twilight said.

She showed a picture to show a man with long blond hair that was falling straight forward with the meteorites.

"Is that one of the Pillar Men you were yapping about?" Rainbow asked.

"Wamuu." Hope said. "Joseph, get in here!"

"Dont bother, its all over the monitors. With the comet blocking out the sun, he'd have free range of the city. We're at his mercy." Twilight said. "Time of impact with Earth….4 minutes."

"Get jeremie on the line, now!" Sunset said. Jeremie answered.

"If youre calling about the Comet, I already know. As for the other guy, he's falling pretty fast, but it looks like someone's already moving to counter him." Jeremie said sending a photo to them with Caesar walking towards the academy.

"Caesar." Hope said.

Hope ran to the academy to see wind already blowing and something dropping on Caesar, even though it was still light out.

"Thats gotta be him.." Hope said. "It's Wamuu!"

Before the two of them stood Wamuu, cloaked in a body shield of wind in order to protect from the sunlight.

"How is he doing this?" Caesar asked. "The comet still hasent passed over the sun yet, he cant be out in the light just yet."

"I'm no expert here, but that wind seems to be the answer." Hope said.

"Wind? Of course!" Caesar said. "He is using it as a cloak."

"You. You are bubble user, Caesar. I can see you have grown as well since the last we met. But with that said, I cannot allow you to stop our mission." Wamuu said.

"I'll make sure you eat those words." Caesar said rubbing his hands together. "Bubble Cutter!" he shouted sending out cutting bubbles filled with Hamon that cut right through Wamuu as he used his wind to push against the bubbles, only making them more dangerous.

"Wow!" Hope said.

"Here I come!" Caesar leaping at Wamuu. But before he could attack, Wamuu bucked at Caesar before leaping to the Academy building and busting down a wall and heading inside.

"Damn. That man is a fighting genius. He used that split second to escape into the school." Caesar said going after him.

"The school? Oh god, Yumi, Johnny and Hiroki just went in there! Caesar, wait!" Hope said.

The two ran inside only to see Yumi, Johnny and Hiroki cornered as Wamuu stood there looking at them.

"Wamuu!" Caesar shouted.

"Bubble user, have you yet to notice we are in a dark area right now and that these weak humans I can easily slaughter?" Wamuu said.

"This guys much more dangerous than you let on, Hope." Yumi said.

"You will not hurt anyone! Bubble Launcher!" Caesar shouted firing bubbles at Wamuu who countered with wind as he tried to pierce Caesar with it. "Bubble Cutter!"

Wamuu blocked as the cutters hit him.

Hope quickly moved and got the three away from wammu. Wammu tried to attack them with his wind, but hope saw it coming and with a punch, pierced his attack and hit him in the face.

"What? He actually Periced Wamuu's wind?" Caesar said.

"So the legends were true." Wamuu said looking at Hope. "You are him. You are the one who could pierce fire with his bare fist. The one who pierces fire."

"Surprised to see its a weakling like me?" Hope asked.

"You fight like a warrior, but you are way to cocky." Wamuu said sending wind at Hope.

"Bubble Cutter!" Caesar shouted blocking the attack for Hope. "Stay out of this!"

"I told you, I cant!" Hope said. "Jonathan and Will were always like family to me too. That doesnt mean im responsible for killing him! I'm trying to prove I was on his side and not on the-" Hope said before being pushed aside.

"This is not a game!" Caesar said. "Rolling Bubble Cutter!" he shouted as rolling cutters hit Wamuu.

"Yes. I think we've had enough of playtime." Wamuu said pointing both arms out.

"The Divine Sandstorm." Hope said in shock.

"Not so fast. Take a look!" Caesar said showing all of the Bubble Cutters in the room. "My cutters have now become lenses, and with the hole you broke in…"

Light shined inside, reflecting off the bubbles as they all pierced through Wamuu.

"Youre totally exposed!" Caesar said leaping into the air. "Watch me, Hope! I'm going to finish him with a direct Hamon Blast!"

"No, wait!" Hope said.

Hope was right. One moment, that single moment as Caesar leapt through the air, his body created a small shadow. Wamuu did not waste any time as he counter attacked.

"Divine Sandstorm!" Wamuu said starting up the wind.

Hope ran to Yumi, Johnny and Hiroki as he shielded them with his body as the full force of the attack ripped apart the building. When it subsided, it was all a wreck as Hope's back was scratched up, but Caesar was far worse. He bled all over as he stood there.

"Yove grown so much. I havent had a fight like that in ages." Wamuu said as he looked at hope. "You took the attack for them."

"I dont think this a game. If you know what happened to my friends back in Metal City, you'd know how I feel." Hope said.

"Yet, if Lord Kars had battled this one, he would be in far worse shape than I would be." Wamuu said as his body was repairing itself.

Hiroki then noticed it.

"Hey! That Caesar guy… he's still moving!" Hiroki said.

Caesar was bleeding all over, but was walking up the steps to keep fighting Wamuu.

"You are wasting your lingering energy. You can no longer use Hamon. My Divine Sandstorm as ripped you apart inside and out. You will not last long." Wamuu said turning to leave only for Caesar to leap and rip his lip ring off as he fell to the floor. "My antidote ring. But why?"

"I'll tell ya why." Hope said. "My words did reach him after all."

"It wasn't your words." Caesar said. "My father, he gave his life to save mine. My grandfather, he gave his like to save Jojo's grandfather. I have to do something. I cannot just let my lifes flame just sputter out to darkness. This is Zeppeli family spirit! Handed down from the past to ensure the Zeppeli's family future. Its the human spirit!" Caesar shouted as the roof was crumbling above him. He removed his bandana and put the ring on it. "JOJO! This is the last of my Hamon! So please, take it all!" he shouted before the roof completely collapsed.

"CAESAR!" Joseph could be heard yelling outside as a stone completely crushed him. But a single blood bubble remained with the ring and bandanna in it.

"He used up the last of his Hamon to make this." Wamuu said. "I will leave it, but not out of sentiment. It is out of respect for a warrior." he said making his leave. "I will remember our battle for years to come, Caesar."

Hope huffed as Wammu nearly went out.

"And you, one who bears light. Though I may not know your past, you will do great things with your future. Do not die so young yet." Wamuu said before finally leaving.

"Count on it." Hope said. "My friends...Mary...Ricardo. I promise, I'll come home and make things right one day."

The heroes barreled in with Joseph.

"What the hell happened here?" Jexi said. "Wait, this blood...is this…"

"It's Caesars." Hope said. "Sorry. You never got to meet him."

Joseph was the one most distraught as he looked at Caesar's spot while crying. "CAESAR!" he shouted.

"Sorry you guys had to see that." Hope said.

"That was...terrifying…" Johnny said.

"I never wanna see something something like that again." Yumi said.

"He aint comin back. We stopped the comet, but it wasnt us." Natsu said.

"Aelita came back into reality. XANA only wanted her, not the supercomputer. He shot the comet with the laser again. He gave up on his plan." Twilight said.

"Sometimes a loss can teach you more than a win." Hope said. "That's something you told me once Jexi." he said getting up. "I won't let Caesar's death be in vain like this."

"Got that right." Joseph said. He grabbed the bandana and put it on and put the antidote in his pocket.

"What are you doing? That's the antidote!" Hope said.

"No. I won't take it...not until I finish Wamuu. The ring...is now a promise between me and Caesar." Joseph said.

"We need to buy you more time then." Hope said.

"I don't think that will be something to worry about." Joseph said watching as the large dome of light approached them.

"What is that?" Hiroki asked.

"RTTP once again." Hope sighed as he stretched out his arms as the dome enveloped all of them.

Back in the past…

Joseph had made a makeshift grave for Caesar in the forest as he prayed for a moment. "My friend….thank you for everything."

"A warriors burial. That is something I can respect." said a voice as Blaziken approached. "I saw that battle with that monster. I am sorry for your loss."

"Thank you. But I won't feel right until I battle Wamuu myself." Joseph said before he suddenly fell unconscious It was revealed that Blaziken kicked him out.

"I hope you'll forgive me, but Wamuu has mentally scarred Yumi. I cannot forgive him for exposing her to such a gruesome death. Therefore...I will end him myself!" Blaziken said.
