Chapter 40 - Chapter 40: God!?

Star Platinum is a being that, aside from Stand Users, ordinary people cannot see.

But Ripple, anyone can see it.

With Ripple attached to Star Platinum's body, others can't clearly see Star Platinum's detailed appearance, but under the reflection of the Ripple, Star Platinum's burly figure reveals itself.

A human figure floats in mid-air, with countless golden sparks dancing over it. Golden light flashes like dazzling sunlight. This kind of color is the one ghosts hate the most, but in the eyes of humans, it is incomparably holy.

Matsumoto Jun widened his eyes, murmured for a long while, then finally spat out a word from his mouth, "!?... God!"

Only a divine miracle could explain this kind of phenomenon. The sound made by a Stand usually cannot be perceived by the outside world; ordinary people simply can't hear a Stand speak. But under the effect of Ripple, it's as if a bridge has been built between the Stand and the outside world.

"Ora ora ora ora!"

Everyone vaguely heard this kind of sound in their ears.

In Matsumoto Jun's view, this was entirely the sound made by a god. The sound was like a bell, echoing without end.

"Ora!"

The light on Star Platinum's fist grew intensely bright and directly pierced through the head of the demon.

After receiving the dual baptism of both the fist and the Ripple, the demon's torn body had not yet hit the ground when it was completely reduced to flying ash.

The remaining few demons all showed expressions of fear. Their companion had been crushed so effortlessly.

It must be known that the blue-faced demon ranked highly among them, and his Blood Demon Art was especially difficult to deal with.

But in front of this guy, he didn't even get the chance to release his Blood Demon Art. Could this guy possibly be a Pillar?

The moment the demon was destroyed, Star Platinum and the Ripple both vanished in mid-air.

Jotaro turned to look at the few remaining demons and calmly asked, "Where is Muzan? Hurry up and tell me!"

A burly man with a full face of bristling beard gave a coquettish female demon a signal with his eyes, then said with a flattering smile, "Boss, if we tell you the information, can you spare us?"

Jotaro didn't respond, but his gaze became sharper. The meaning was obvious, whether he spares you is uncertain, but if you don't speak, you will definitely die.

The bearded man gave an awkward laugh and said, "I know where he is."

"Oh?" Jotaro signaled him to go on.

"He's right…" he dragged the word out long.

But the next second, a flash of fierceness passed through his eyes.

Jotaro heard footsteps behind him and turned his head sharply, only to see Matsumoto Jun swaying as he raised a three-inch-long small knife and stabbed toward him.

His eyes were dull, his head tilted, the bones in his muscles creaked, and a strange aura emanated from his entire body.

'What was going on!?'

Jotaro reached out and grabbed Matsumoto Jun's wrist. With his other hand, he punched the opponent's face, sending him flying.

"Snap out of it!"

Matsumoto Jun landed head-first and slid several meters away. His whole forehead was a bloody mess, his entire face dyed red with blood. Even so, he instantly flipped up again, as if he couldn't feel pain, and rushed toward Jotaro again.

"This guy!" Jotaro frowned. Against ordinary humans, he wouldn't use his Stand to beat them.

One punch didn't wake him up, so he could only reach out to restrain the man's actions.

This guy had been fine just a moment ago, why was he suddenly going crazy and attacking him?

"Yare yare…"

Jotaro stared at the ghost slayer member's blurred face and roughly guessed that he had been controlled by someone.

At the same time, the bearded man also seized the opportunity to launch an attack on Jotaro.

"You brat! In your next life, don't show your back to the enemy!" He laughed loudly and charged at Jotaro at full speed.

He was confident he could decapitate Jotaro the moment he turned around.

But Jotaro never intended to turn around.

"Ora!"

Star Platinum instantly emerged from his back and delivered an uppercut to the demon's chin. His jaw fused instantly with his upper jaw, and sharp teeth shattered all over the ground.

Star Platinum seized him, and Jotaro turned around coldly and asked, "What's wrong with him?"

The punch Star Platinum threw just now wasn't heavy. In a moment, the demon's injuries had already healed.

Looking into those light green eyes, the bearded demon's body involuntarily began to tremble.

"It's from Yocai's Blood Demon Art! Her Blood Demon Art 'Blood Shadow Miasma', can create a blood mist that confuses vision. The blood mist can also enter the human body and control their actions." At a life-or-death moment, he did not hesitate to completely sell out his teammate's information.

Jotaro looked at him, and indeed there were wisps of blood mist drifting in front of his eyes. His entire body was already surrounded by the blood mist.

The bearded demon laughed wildly. "Ha ha ha! You've fallen for it too!! How does it feel? Can you not move your body anymore?"

Jotaro's face darkened, it was unclear what he was thinking.

The bearded demon roared, "You guys hurry up and kill him! Even if this guy is a Pillar, he's just one person! We have multiple demons! Join forces and kill him! That Lord will definitely be very pleased!"

"This is something only an Upper Moon could achieve!"

"Yare yare daze~" Jotaro muttered impatiently.

At the same time, he let go of Matsumoto Jun's restrained hands and stuffed them into his pockets.

Matsumoto Jun collapsed limply to the ground. The next second, he woke up.

"What happened to me?" he held his forehead, his hands covered in blood. "Ah ah ah!!! So painful!"

The bearded man's smile froze. He stammered, "Th-this… what's going on? Why can you still move!?"

Star Platinum released the restrained demon's hands and started throwing punches wildly in all directions.

"Ora ora ora ora ora!"

The fierce wind created by his fists blew all the surrounding blood mist away.

The bearded man was shocked. The surroundings were now empty, not even a ghost's shadow was left.

Jotaro calmly said, "She used the blood mist to block my vision, looks like she escaped."

The bearded demon's body stiffened. How could this be? His companion actually abandoned him.

Thinking of this, he no longer planned to stay. In an instant, he leapt up and dashed away in the opposite direction of Jotaro.

Star Platinum had incredible power and speed, but he had one fatal flaw, his range was too short.

Even if he realized the demons were escaping, he couldn't stop them all. Being able to keep one demon alive for information was already enough for him.

Still, to prevent other humans from being harmed by demons, he would try his best to stop as many as possible.

"Star Platinum!"

"Time, stop flowing!"
