[BRAZIL - RIO DE JANEIRO - 2011]

On a dark night, the favela is illuminated, in the background you can hear the sound of a dance taking place; Somewhere in the favela, some young college students are quietly getting high on drugs alongside two soldiers who are guarding the place.

(Soldier: In the language of Brazilian crime, a Soldier is the one responsible for defense and military attacks. He is always armed and ready to take part in any confrontation).

In the distance, there is an isolated student smoking marijuana, he is positioned in a strategic place to warn if the police appear. A rocketeer.

(Rocketeer: In the language of Brazilian crime, Rocketeer is the person responsible for alerting drug dealers that the police are coming by launching a rocket, usually located in strategic places)

Suddenly, the rocketeer is pulled from behind by a police squad, this is the BOPE. They cover the boy's mouth with tape to silence him and prevent him from alerting others. Two of the squadron officers numbered "05" and "06" stay with the rocketman while the rest of the officers prepare to attack. The officer with number "03" analyzes the place and gestures to the battalion captain, a muscular man in his 20s with a tall stature, intense eyes and black hair that falls in disarray over his forehead. So angry contrasts with the lightness of her skin tanned by constant exposure to the sun. On the back of his neck, there is a visible purple star mark under his uniform.

The gestures that officer 03 gestured to the captain translates to "There are two soldiers". The captain gestures back, which translates to "Finish them."

Then, two of the officers take their weapons, come out of their hidden positions and shoot the soldiers, scaring the students. The squad orders the youths to get down and begins questioning them.

"Where's the 'Vape'?"" - Says the squadron captain

(Vape: In the language of Brazilian crime, Vape is the person responsible for selling drugs and who does not carry a weapon)

"You're among them, captain!" Answers 04 to his captain, looking with disdain at the young people

"Oh yes?Align everyone here in front of me!" Orders the captain in a tone of extreme anger.

The other team members force the youngsters to stand in front of the captain in a horizontal line. The captain says in a serious, loud and hard voice: "I'm going to ask you just once: Who's with the load?!"

One of the young people responds with fear "'There's no one here, sir."

This sentence greatly irritated the captain, who asks loudly with extreme anger at the young man who responded to him "Who had the load?! Who had the load?!"

The young man responds more terrified: "I don't know, sir. I am a student."

The captain says angrily "You're a student, eh?!" While the other officers laugh and say in a mocking tone: "Look, he's a student, he can do it."

"Come here, student!" The captain forcefully pulls the student by the arm towards the body of one of the soldiers who were guarding the place and says to the student: "Get your face here! Get your face in here!" Joel forces the student's face against the soldier's bullet hole and asks him: "Do you see this?! Do you see this hole here?! Who killed this guy here?!"

With no response, the captain responds again: "Who killed this guy here?!"

The student responds full of fear: "I didn't see-"

The captain interrupts the student saying: "Didn't you see? Did you see!" And he hits the student in the face: "Who killed this guy here?! He can talk!" The captain continually hits the student in the face while ordering him to speak.

The student responds completely terrified: "F-It was one of you!"

This pisses off the captain, who punches the student hard in the stomach. "One of you, damn it! You were the one who killed this guy here! You're the one financing this shit here!" The captain pushes the student back towards the young people "We only come here to clean up the shit you do! Your dumbasses! Now tell me, where the fuck is Vape?!"

One of the young men stands up and looks at the captain with a defiant look, even though, in reality, he was filled with fear and dread inside. The captain looks at this young man and says in a fierce tone while the other officers in the squad point their weapons at him: "O, kid, stay on the ground or it will be worse for you!"

The young man responds, stuttering in fear, "I- I'm the Vape of this group,mas d- I doubt they can beat me! I now have a power that will certainly slicev- you!" The young man then summons his stand, a red and thin humanoid with several blades on his body "Meet my Devil's Bla-"

Before the young man finishes his sentence, he receives a strong punch in the face from the captain's Stand. "ORA!" The young man falls to the ground looking with extreme fear at it. Captain's Stand is a tall, muscular humanoid wearing a black military uniform, black boots and a black ballistic helmet that completely covers the stand's head and face, only being able to see the glowing red eyes of the stand

"So you're a stand user too, huh?" The captain looks at the young man and sighs again: "Good fucking grief, in this case, know my stand, Iron Army!" Iron Army then strikes a pose saluting the captain while saying a loud "ORA!". The captain says angrily: "Well, now I just have to beat you up and take you to the police station." He looks at Iron Army and says with a joking tone "Have fun."

Iron Army then makes a punching barrage on the young man, saying loudly "ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA!" Until making him unconscious.

The other students don't understand anything, just looking at the situation scared because they are not stand users. The captain says to his team: "Let's take Vape to the police station and then we can go to our homes, 06, you can let the rocketman go." One of the officers then catches the rocketman, removes the tape from his mouth and releases him to escape. The rocketman then runs away with tears of fear in his eyes.

The captain sighs: "Let's pay attention to the firecracker, they execute rocketeer who fucks up."

When the captain was about to leave, one of the students looked at him with fear and shock, trying to understand what happened and say "W-Who are you?! W-What Did you do with Roberto?!"

The captain stops and looks at the student who dared to raise his voice at him, but he tries to calm down: "... Kujo, my name is Joel Kujo, but my team and bums like you can- no, you must call me Captain Kujo, you broken-ins. I only did what I had to do with your friend, since he was a bum who thought that just because he was given a fishing rod he could catch a huge shark."

The officer with number "02" catches Joel's attention: "Captain, can you come here for a minute?"

Joel approaches 02 and asks in a softer voice: "What's up, 02? Any problem?"

"You know, captain, I wanted us to get out of the favela earlier today… please?"

Joel raises an eyebrow and asks with an air of suspicion "Okay… why exactly is there such a rush to finish this priest mission?"

02 then takes a deep breath and says: "I have some very serious matters to deal with… my wife said her water broke and I don't want to miss the birth of my-"

Before 02 finishes, Joel laughs and replies to 02 "Marcos, why didn't you say that before?" Joel looks at his team with a much more smiling face than before and speaks in a tone of joy and enthusiasm "Guys, let's stop wasting time here and go down the hill soon, because Marco's son is going to be born, dammit!"

The entire battalion celebrates the achievement of 02 with laughter, decorations and general happiness. They take the Vape, who is currently unconscious, to one of the vans and drive to the police station.


Arriving at the police station, they arrest the Vape and place him under the responsibility of the regular police. The squad members take off their uniforms and change into their casual clothes. The officer with number 02, called Marcos, goes to meet Joel "Hey, Captain-"

Joel interrupts Marcos: "Marcos, please, we finished our work, you can call me Joel."

Marcos smiles and says "Okay, Joel. I just wanted to say thank you for the support you guys have given me, this is really important to me."

Joel laughs again: "Marcos, there's no need to thank you, it was just our reaction to the news, besides, you're my best friend, I'd be an idiot if I didn't react like that, especially after the priest's mission. Now go to the hospital, your baby is about to be born, you idiot."

Marcos laughs and nods. He goes straight to the hospital.

Joel stretches and walks to his house. He summons Iron Army to chat with him.


On the way home, Joel passes through the dark and empty streets of Rio de Janeiro, they give a silence and peace that is only broken by the sound of steps and conversations of Joel and Iron Army. Joel goestalking with Iron Army, even though the stand can only say the word 'Ora', Joel understands it as if it were Portuguese.

"That last mission was hard, right? Like, what's all of this for? Just to ensure the safety of an idiot priest?"

"Ora!" Responds Iron Army.

Joel stops to think and responds to Iron Army "Yeah, you're right, he's an important religious figure and it would be REALLY bad if we let him get hurt." Joel smiles and laughs with Iron Army

Halfway there, breaking the silence of the night, Joel hears a slight noise coming from the alley along with grunts of pain: "Wryyy…"

Curious Joel goes to investigate to see what made this sound. Upon entering the alley, Joel is shocked to see what is happening: He sees a woman apparently in her 20s who displays intriguing beauty. Her red eyes shine with a supernatural intensity, contrasting with her long dark hair. The robust body reveals remarkable physical strength, while its pale skin seems to highlight a mysterious, charming and seductive nature. On the back of her neck, a star mark, just like Joel's, but yellow instead of purple. She is holding a man by the neck. Joel sees that the man appears to be already dead and appears to be having, in some way, his blood "sucked" by the woman's hands.

Joel pulls out his gun and points it at the woman and yells "You! Let go of this man and put your hands up immediately!"

The woman looks at Joel and sighs. She says "Sir, I am doing something that is none of your business. I beg you, don't make me have to kill you, sir, just go away and pretend you didn't see anything." She then throws the dead man's body on the ground like it was nothing.

Joel then shoots the woman in the leg, intending to make her surrender, however, to Joel's astonishment, the woman shows no reaction. The woman's leg begins to regenerate quickly. The woman sighs and says, "I didn't want it to be like this, but you made me do it." She starts walking towards Joel coolly and calmly.

Joel looks amazed and thinks "She expressed no reaction to being shot in the leg, did she not feel pain? And how is this woman's leg regenerating so quickly? This must be a stand ability, that's it!". He starts walking towards her to make her come into the Iron Army's range.

She laughs and says in a mocking way, raising her hands: "Oh? You're approaching me? Instead of running away, you're coming right to me? Even though I asked you to leave so I could spare your life and that I just killed a man in front of you, like a predator that alerts its prey to give the prey a chance to run and save its own life, you're still approaching me?"

Joel says with a serious expression: "I can't beat the fuck out of you without getting closer."

The woman replied, laughing: "Brave, bold and rude, just the way I like it~ Well, if that's the case, you can get as close as you like." And starts walking towards Joel.

They get close to each other, close enough for one to attempt an attack on the other. Garras emerges from the woman's hands and she hits the woman's , speaking loudly "USELESS!", making him grunt in pain, to defend himself, Joelsoca the woman heavily with Iron Army's fist, sending her flying towards a wall, breaking it.

Joel realizes that the wound has severe burns, as if her claws were as hot as fire, and that the attack was much more than a simple scratch.

Joel is confused, he has never seen a stand like this regenerate and alter the user's body to this level.

The woman is confused, she doesn't understand what was hit, she just felt as if the air had punched her.

They say at the same time in confusion "WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU?!"

The woman then gets up and moves forward to attack Joel. She manages to cause deep scratches on Joel's chest with her claws. Iron Army tries to punch her, but like instinct she dodges and jumps back. She speaks with a tone of arrogance: "You have a strange ability, you punched me without even touching me, but allow me to explain something to you: I don't care if you are strong or have some magical ability, this is all useless against me, useless, useless, useless. Therefore, I am sorry to inform you, but today you will meet your end."

Joel ignores her and goes after her. She jumps behind Joel and tries to attack him, Iron Army protects him with a barrage of punches to the woman and ends with a powerful kick to her back. The woman is thrown away, but quickly gets up and uses the remaining blood in the body of the man she killed to regenerate herself. When the woman takes a step, she realizes that there is something on her back, making a 'clunking' ' constant and emitting a flashing red light.

Joel sighs and speaks: "In addition to insanely high physical strength and speed, Iron Army has the unique ability to create a variety of weapons without the need for reloading. From pistols and knives to grenades and other firearms. But one curious thing is that in addition to conventional weapons, Iron Army also has the convenient ability to create explosives, just like the one I implanted in your back with that last kick." Joel then raises his hand and shows that he is holding a detonator.

He then activates the detonator, causing the bomb that was on the woman's back to explode, which destroys the woman's body and clothes and knocks Joel down due to the shock wave. Joel gets up, sighs, muttering to himself "good grief" and walks back home, he is unhappy that he had to eliminate a woman like that, but thinks that he did what he had to do and considers the act as 'justice', mainly because she was a dangerous stand user who It could have hurt even more people if he hadn't done it.

Without Joel noticing, the woman slowly begins to regenerate. When Joel is about to leave the alley, the woman attacks him from behind with a trip, causing him to fall. She pins him to the ground with supernatural strength, Joel tries to move but is unable to go, the woman then sticks her fingers into the captain's neck and begins to suck his blood

Joel says, full of pain and anger: "Damn! You! Argh... I... I don't accept dying here! Not for a murderer like you! Those who kill innocent people shouldn't even have the right to breathe the same air as innocent citizens-" Joel then feels the woman's hand over his mouth, preventing him from speaking.

"Can you please remain silent? It's very inconvenient to feed to the sound of a vigilante cursing me." She gets close to Joel's ear and whispers, "But let me tell you something..."

Joel, thinking that that end of the alley would be the place of his death, suddenly feels that the woman who was attacking him has released him. He quickly tries to get up but falls to the ground due to weakness in his legs. He looks at the woman, she is staring and smiling at Joel.

"You're impulsive, you attacked me before knowing my reasons, you weren't exactly the most gentlemanly with a lady and you destroyed my clothes, but you have morals and I can respect that. You didn't attack me because you saw who I killed, on the contrary, you attacked me because you didn't see who I killed and thought it was an innocent person. I think we need more people like you in this country. Also, you owe me a set of new clothes." She giggles. She then walks into the shadows but she stops and looks at Joel again "I forgot to say, you can call me Daniela Brando. Nice star mark on the back of your neck by the way." And disappears into the shadows

Joel looks shocked at the place where Daniela disappeared. He then puts his hand over the star mark on the back of her neck. Her words echoed in Joel's mind, he began to think "Wait, she said something about WHO she killed…" Joel's curiosity gets the better of him and he goes to check the body of whoever that woman killed. He is surprised to recognize the victim as "Nartagman Wasley", a politician who was being accused of corruption and involvement in pedophilia. Joel analyzes the situation and begins to debate with himself whether he should really report the incident and turn the woman in or if he should pretend he didn't see anything. On the one hand, Daniela killed a man, on the other hand, she saved several children and ended up with a corrupt man... Joel sighs, takes a coin from his pocket and decides on the coin toss: if it comes up heads, he won't report it, if it comes down Damn, he reports her and goes after her.

The result of the coin is… heads.

Joel turns around and starts walking home "I'll give you the benefit of the doubt… you don't seem that bad, Daniela." Joel stretches and uses Iron Army's leg to propel himself off the ground and take a huge leap towards his house.

POWER: A

SPEED: A

It can generate weapons that do not need to reload ammunition. These weapons need to be real to be generated by Iron Army, for example, it could not generate a laser weapon. The more weapons Iron Army generates, the less firepower they have.


Arriving home, Joel enters the front door and quickly goes to the bathroom to treat his shoulder wound. He takes off his shirt, takes a first aid kit, disinfects the area where Daniela hurt with alcohol, applies antibiotics and put bandages to treat the wound. Iron Army helps him by applying antiseptics so the wound doesn't get infected. Joel thanks him with a nod and a slight smile. "Okay, what do you plan to do now?" He says this, not even worrying about the wound on his shoulder anymore, getting hurt is already common for him.

Iron Army thinks for a few moments before responding with a loud "ORA!"

Joel smiles and says lightly "I was hoping you would say that." He goes to the kitchen, takes two beers from the fridge and goes to the living room to watch something on TV. He hands one of the beers to Iron Army, Iron Army slightly lifts his helmet to allow passage to his mouth but without showing his face and they begin to drink together. Joel starts thinking while drinking with Iron Army "That woman… she hasn't seen Iron Army and barely deviated from his attacks... but she had those skills... could it be that she really isn't a stand user? And if she isn't, then what the hell is she?!"

Joel's thoughts are interrupted by an "ORA" from Iron Army, who looks at him asking him to stop thinking about the subject and enjoy the moment. Joel gets the message and takes another sip of his beer before deciding to stop thinking about it. He tells Iron Army "Thanks, man." giving him a punch on the shoulder... which passes through him, as Iron Army is not a tangible stand for physical matter.

They finish their drinks and Joel goes to take a shower before going to bed to go to sleep.


The next day, Joel is at the police station having a meeting with the other officers in command of the battalion, such as lieutenants, deputy commanders and the colonel.

Colonel Carvalho says to those present: "You already know that the priest is coming here and will stay in one of the favelas, but you don't know that he wants to sleep in the archbishop's house that is here" The colonel points out a place on the map of the Rio de Janeiro "on Turano hill." The other members of the meeting complain about this to the colonel and he responds: "We are the ones who will guarantee the sleep of his angels."

Joel asks indignantly: "Calm down, let me see if I understand, the priest not only wants to stay on Turano Hill, he also wants to stay in one of the places that is in the middle of the war?! Damn, it has to be bullshit! Turano at war and the priest wanting to be in the middle?! What is Carvalho? Tell him I'll pay for him a hotel in Copacabana!"

The colonel replied tiredly: "Unfortunately he doesn't want to, I spent a month trying to convince the security secretary, but not even God changes the priest's schedule. He'll sleep there and that's it. And there's one more thing: We have six days from today to try to appease Turano. What we are going to do will be daily raids."

Joel says, already upset: "Sir Colonel, may you forgive me, but do you agree with the daily incursion? That's right? We're going to go up at night, we're going to go up without the surprise effect, we're going to go up under fire, people are going to die, Colonel!"

The Colonel says in a stern tone: "Kujo! This is what will be done, the first operation starts tonight. Am I clear?"

All the members of the room say quietly "Yes sir…"

The Colonel sighs and dismisses them from the meeting.


Joel goes to the bathroom to wash his face. He punches the bathroom wall in anger and mutters to himself "Fucking grief! This shitty operation is going to go fucking wrong! Even though all of our soldiers are stand users, there might be enemy stand users there, you never know! Fuck, there could be dozens, if not hundreds of them!"

In the middle of his murmurs, he feels a hand caress his injured shoulder from behind and one by one warm breath along with a seductive feminine voice close to his ear "I thought I hurt you here last night, or am I wrong?" ?"

Joel turns around in a hurry and sees Daniela, the woman he faced last night.

"You?! What the fuckyou what are you doing here?! And how did you know where I was?!" Joel asks with indignation and confusion

Daniela sighs and says: "I came to see how you are, besides, I want to talk to you a little. And about the second real question, because I don't consider 'You?!' as a question, I followed you from the moment you took that huge leap, you blockhead." She says in a playful tone "You should praise me, it wasgoodIt's hard to follow you here, I think I deserve a reward, don't I?"

Joel looks her up and down, she's wearing a white black skull t-shirt that's obviously bigger than her, black sweatpants that fit loosely on her and black high heels. He sighs and says calmly "...did you get these clothes from my closet?"

She looks with a pleading look: "Come on, you destroyed my clothes with that explosion, what did you want me to do?!"

Joel then remembers this and sighs saying "... Good grief…okay, you can keep those clothes now'to your small on me anyway… But enough with the games, what do you want with me?"

Daniela looks at Joel and responds with a curious and seductive air "I wanted to know a few things, including, why did you let me go unharmed? You didn't tell on me to your people, even after seeing that I killed that man… why?"

Joel looks at her and then looks at the floor and mumbles "Because you were right…"

She says teasingly, "Excuse me, I didn't hear."

Joel repeats slightly louder, "You were right."

She laughs and whispers to Joel in his ear, "Louder."

Joel gets angry and shouts at her: "You were right to end that guy, okay?! He was a son of a bitch who deserved to die for being a fucking pedophile! Cum! Are you happy?!"

Daniela laughs and says calmly: "I liked you. Now, my second question:" She says in a more serious tone: "Where did that star mark on the back of your neck come from?"

Joel calms down and takes a deep breath before saying, "I don't know how it started, but my mom told me before she died that my dad had one like it on the back of his head, so I guess I got it from him."

"And who is your father?"

"He's a very famous marine biologist, I think his name isJotaro or something like that, it doesn't matter, he was never part of my life, so it doesn't matter who he is." Joel says with contempt

Daniela looks at his face and slowly calms down and says again in a playful tone: "Well, I completely forgot to ask your name, so would you be so kind as to tell me? Please?"

Joel hesitates to say it, but ends up saying it anyway: "My name is JoelKujo, nice to meet you, Daniela." He extends his hand for a handshake

Daniela looks at Joel's face and starts to think "Joel... KujoJoJo…" She suddenly smiles and squeezes his hand tightly and says "Nice to meet you too, JoJo!" And laugh lightly

"I should have stayed quiet… okay, can you leave now?"

"No thanks, I still have questions and an idea." Daniela says, with a seductive and calm tone

"... Ugh... okay, tell me what you want before pissing me off."

"Hehe, okay. So… are you single?" She asks, looking up and down Joel's body and placing a hand on his chest.

"If I say no, will you leave me alone?" He says, trying to get her to back off and stop bothering him.

She steps back and says with an air of disappointment, "Come on, you really don't want to hang out? And here I thought that men only think about 'that', or are you an exception?"

Joel gets angry and leaves the bathroom, Daniela follows him. The other members of the battalion look at them curiously, not knowing where this beautiful woman came from and why she was in the bathroom with Joel.

One of the officers, Felipe, arrives at Joel to warn him of something: "Oh, Captain Kujo, the Colonel told you to tell you that you will be the one who has to look for the priest."

This irritates Joel even more "Why the fuck ME?! What the fuck is the need for ME to go get that priest from the Festa Junina?!"

Felipe shrugs and says: "I don't know, the priest just demanded that you pick him up, the rest is no longer my problem." Felipe leaves, but not before taking a good look at Daniela and receiving a stern look from Joel

Joel murmurs to himself "Good grief."

Daniela looks curiously at Joel and curiously asks "Wait, what are you talking about? Who is this priest?"

Joel looks at Daniela, surprised that she doesn't know about the matter: "Didn't you hear? The priest Pucci is coming to Brazil… you know… Enrico Pucci, that renowned priest around the world… the one who went and visited and was referenced by the Pope himself for his dedication to religion…? Don't you know him?"

Daniela shakes her head in denial and shrugs: "I'm not very informed about this religion thing and I'm not even interested in it, because if it exists I'll go to hell, otherwise I'll just die."

Joel looks at her with uncertainty "... okay... well, tell me, what is your stand's ability?"

Daniela raises an eyebrow and asks in confusion "I don't know what that is, could you explain to me?"

The uncertainty only increases in Joel "... stand... this ability you have is a stand... You know, it usually manifests as an object or an entity that is usually humanoid... you know, most of the time only stand users see others stands… your ability is a stand… no?"

They look at each other for a moment. Joel makes Iron Army create a pistol and he points it at her head, almost touching her forehead. The other BOPE police officers look surprised and shocked. Officer 04, Olivia asks Joel in a worried voice "J-Joel, what the fuck, put that gun down! Are you going to shoot her in the head?!"

Daniela looks at Olivia and slowly asks with her head tilted to the side "... what are you talking about? What gun are you talking about?" She looks at Joel "And why are you making that hand gesture at me?"

Joel looks completely shocked. He lowers the gun and stares at it, almost as if he's seen a ghost... although he usually sees creatures that are practically ghosts. "...if you're not a stand user…what are you?"

Daniela laughs and says provocatively "Isn't it clear? Changing my body, me sucking blood…I'm a vampire, silly!" She laughs again

Joel looks at her more shocked than he's ever been before, and that's insane because he's faced every type of enemy stand user, but he's never seen a vampire.

"... ah... I... I don't even know what to say... but... tell me: Why did you suck my blood before letting me go last night?!"

She laughs: "I was hungry, and I thought a big strong man like you would handle it if I sucked a little blood, hehe."

"... alright... if that's so..." Joel opens his bag and starts looking for something. He then pulls out a small bag of blood and hands it to Daniela "We keep this with us in case we need an emergency transfusion as our service is quite… dangerous. You can take it, my blood type is AB positive, so I can receive blood of any type."

Daniela looks surprised and happy. She takes the gift and awkwardly says "T-Thank you."

Joel eases his seriousness a little and laughs: "Hey, weren't you the one who was so confident in yourself? Why are you so shy now?"

She blushes a little and says irritably "I- I didn't expect a gift, you useless idiot!"

Joel laughs: "Okay, okay, don't worry… now, I have a proposal to make, do you want to hear it?"

"Sure, why not?"

Joel clears his throat and says in a more serious tone: "I'm going to have to face a daily operation to protect Father Pucci, who will arrive here in six days. We will have to carry out suicide tasks every day until Turano Hill is appeased, but our soldiers will be very exposed to death... if possible, I would love for you to help us. You fought me in the alley yesterday, I saw what you're capable of... and I'd love for you to help us do this operation... Can you help us? Understand that you will be at great risk of being shot and injured, and you will have to receive and obey my orders, are you okay with that?"

Daniela looks at Joel in silence thoughtfully. After a few moments, she smiles and raises her hand offering a handshake. "You can count on me, Captain Kujo."

Joel grins and shakes her hand tightly: "Then welcome to the battalion, Officer Daniela!"
