Chapter 205. Raising the Fgs
---
Even though it felt like a slim hope.
After reading Sora's post titled "Is it possible?", even those who began seriously pting the question and actively searg for a way to defeat the [Cream] gradually came to doubt. Was the [Cream] truly uable?
But when the new episode of "Stardust Crusaders" aired, right on schedule, they immediately put on their full-dive helmets and clicked on the new tent.
And they all breathed a huge sigh of relief.
After seeing the [Cream] bee so overpowered, they had genuinely feared that Green Dolphin Studio would announething like, "The enemy was to, so DIO and the others win," leading to a rushed and disappointing ending.
After all, in their minds, the best possible oute was merely shifting the battle se from DIO's Mansion to that dark spatial tunnel mentioned by [Cream], whose destination remained unknown.
By coordinating with Avdol, who was ihe dark space, they could defeat Vanil, hiding in that very space, simir to how Kakashi and his team figured out Obito's Kamui phasing ability in "Naruto".
But if it were that simple, Vanil wouldn't have failed to know the weaknesses of his Stand, right?
So, as the viewers opehe test episode of "Stardust Crusaders" with a mix of hope and doubt, there was no questioest episode delivered a shht from the start.
Using Vanil's zombie and psychological weaknesses? Just like the approach to dealing with Obito's space-maniputing abilities in "Naruto"?
...All the methods that viewers had spent a full week ing up with, unsure if they would even work, were, in Polnareff's eyes, far too plicated!
He always had only ohod of dealing with Vanil and the [Cream]—
"It's impossible... Saying that you killed Avdol... Stop joking around!!!"
With Polnareff's furious shout in "Stardust Crusaders", the silver knight appeared instantly, passing through yers of spad desding behind the [Cream]!
—[Silver Chariot]!!
Everyone knows that [Silver Chariot] is almost a bnk Stand. pared to the simirly bnk Stand, "Star Ptinum", which has a full 5A1 its stats except for its retively weak rahe other attributes are almost super-standard.
[Silver Chariot] doesn't even have a sight. Without Polnareff trolling it, it's basically blind. Its only redeemiure is its A-rank speed.
However, even with that sole advantage in speed, it might not be faster than [Star Ptinum].
Because of that, the exact speed of [Silver Chariot] never made much of an impression on most viewers.
...No! To be more accurate, [Silver Chariot] itself never really left much of an impression on viewers!
Otherwise, why would the audience despair when they saw that it olnareff fighting the [Cream]?
It was because they had little hope in [Silver Chariot].
Although Iggy's [The Fool] had shown them a bck will in the fight against Pet Shop, Iggy's trembling at the appearance of Vanil and the [Cream] didn't inspire much fidence.
But now...
"What!?"
When [Silver Chariot]'s true speed was revealed—not fag another speed A-rank Stand, but rather slower Stands—the terror of a fast Stand was fully demonstrated to Vanil!
"It's unbelievable! I never expected Polnareff's Stand to be this agile, with such long attack range..."
Even Vanil couldn't rea time.
If Polnareff hadn't been blinded by rage and wao make Vanil feel the same helplessness Avdol had experienced, knowing someone was behind him but being powerless to stop them, and had simply pierced Vanil during his charge...
Vanil might have died just now.
Because...
Squelch—!!!
The [Cream] was injured by [Silver Chariot]'s thrust!?
This wasn't because [Silver Chariot] was so fast that it pierced spad attacked Vanil and the [Cream], who were protected by the dark space.
Even though near-light-speed [Silver Chariot] could theoretically spader the effects of retivity, that would be like saying DIO's time-stop affected the entire universe—essentially creating a bck hole that swallowed everything, which is impossible! Even for just five seds...
(PS: A fun fact about bck holes: there's a region called the event horizoime appears to stop from an outside perspective. It's literally a case of "one day in the heavens, a year oh," or even more exaggerated.)
So the reason [Silver Chariot] could nd a hit was much simpler.
Before [Cream] fully engulfed its body in the dark space, it wasn't invincible!
It had a body!
A body that other Stands could attack!
The bleeding wound roof of that!
Although Vanil quickly realized this after being struck by [Silver Chariot], causing [Cream] to rapidly retreat into the dark spad re-es invincible state...
But ohis was firmed—o was firmed that [Cream] wasn't invincible and couldn't outrun [Silver Chariot]'s speed—the previously pessimistic audience members immediately had their doubts cleared and regained full fidehat Polnareff and his team could defeat [Cream]!
The ao the question that had troubled them for a week was resolved so simply!?
"It's solid!"
"The Easter egg from the OP was real after all!"
"The story of Avdol, Polnareff, and the others isn't over yet!"
Almost all the viewers were excitedly vinced of this.
