Chapter 174 - Chapter 174: Trace On!

"However, that boy walking so carelessly on the street seems quite confident."

"Although I can understand that confidence, it's not clear yet if he's a Stand User."

Never expecting to encounter a new Master and Servant pair here, Kishibe Rohan, Jotaro, and Amber were discussing countermeasures.

After all, even as Stand Users, the scene they saw today was too shocking for them.

You have to know, that was Son Goku!

Even looking at so-called "Fame," after becoming a Servant, he would be incredible.

The possibility of defeating him head-on...

Kishibe Rohan couldn't imagine it at all.

Even if Heaven's Door's ability was special, whether he could get close enough to touch the opponent was a question.

Or before touching him, he might be beaten to a pulp by a single punch.

Son Goku's punch...

Swallowing hard, Kishibe Rohan dared not imagine if he could take it safely.

One had to know, according to the Dragon Ball worldview description, a farmer with a gun only had "5" combat power.

And Son Goku at his debut with "10" combat power could already tank handgun bullets with his flesh without injury.

Let alone Goku after successful training...

Even with just over "100" combat power, tying everyone in Morioh together might not be enough for him to fight.

If being "Ora-ed" continuously by Star Platinum might kill you, then being punched once by Son Goku was the same.

The difference in physical quality was too vast.

But precisely because of this, Kishibe Rohan was very excited.

As a manga artist, Kishibe Rohan wanted to know!

Could that so-called "Ki" cultivation method be learned?

After all, Bukujutsu (Flight), Explosive Ki, Kamehameha and such were super cool, okay!

Even disregarding convenience and practicality, the symbolic significance was huge!

The "charm" within... presumably anyone who understood would know its value.

Just imagining Jotaro using Star Platinum to blast out a Kamehameha... it would probably be truly "invincible."

"Hm... the good news is, Son Goku doesn't have the power to break through Time Stop."

"Then as long as we target his Master, it should be easy to solve."

Jotaro looked at the back disappearing around the corner, then spoke.

"Is that so..."

"Then let's just use Time Stop to knock that boy out and take the Dragon Ball."

"He's not a local, he should be carrying it on him."

Thinking of a coping method, Kishibe Rohan also felt this was the most appropriate solution.

The best way was even to write the setting "Cannot attack our side" on that boy and Son Goku.

"Then I'll leave it to you, Amber."

Getting out of the car with Jotaro and looking at that corner to chase, Kishibe Rohan spoke.

"Understood..."

...

Akemi Homura walked on the road holding Miyu's hand, looking at the stopped time around her, thinking.

This time stop wasn't caused by that maid.

Although she could roughly guess that this war involved more than one Servant or Stand User capable of Time Stop.

But for so many time-type ability users to clash together was truly a rare occurrence.

"Is this a Time Stop?"

Miyu looked around curiously, holding Akemi Homura's hand tightly without letting go.

Originally, she didn't possess the ability to move in stopped time.

But because of contact with Akemi Homura, she gained the possibility of movement.

Just as when Akemi Homura herself activated Time Stop—once she made contact with someone else, it would grant the opponent the "defect" of being able to move.

So often, Akemi Homura would avoid touching others.

This could be considered one of her weaknesses.

"It's incredible, isn't it?"

"In stopped time, you can do many things."

"For those who want to learn or want to do something, this might be a dream ability."

Looking at Miyu's curious gaze, Akemi Homura said softly.

"I have to thank you, Miyu."

"Without you, I'm afraid I wouldn't have obtained this unique opportunity."

Recalling her initial goal, Akemi Homura brushed her long hair with her free hand and sighed.

Summoned here only to encounter the greatest obstacle, causing her Time Stop to lose its former efficacy.

And because of the Stand Miyu obtained, she was one step closer to the possibility of victory.

No matter what, this girl really provided everything she lacked.

"No, actually, I don't understand the reason I was chosen either."

"If we talk about wishes..."

"It's complex for myself too..."

Shaking her head, Miyu knew how strong the person before her's obsession with saving her friend was.

That was a pursuit with no end, spanning who knows how many loops.

And now seeing hope, naturally, she would work even more "crazily."

Even as the former "Child of God," it was hard for Miyu to grant her wish.

And what could be entrusted was nothing but a new "Wish Granter."

"Came on their own initiative?"

Without continuing the conversation, the figure appearing ahead made Akemi Homura look over.

"Approaching while blatantly radiating magical energy..."

"Such a flagrant invitation to battle, how could I ignore it?"

Taking out knives from somewhere and holding them, Sakuya looked at Akemi Homura and the girl beside her.

"Brought the Master this time too?"

"Really..."

"Quite bold."

Being ridiculed like this, Akemi Homura didn't care.

Bringing Miyu out this time was because Akemi Homura had the confidence to protect her.

Just then, the effect of Time Stop was lifted.

"Lifted?"

Sakuya looked in a certain direction, knowing who released the Time Stop.

But turning around, she couldn't be bothered to think about the situation there, instead focusing on Akemi Homura ahead.

Knives threw out, then imbued with "New" properties.

*Swish swish!!*

"?"

Holding Miyu to avoid the suddenly multiplying knives, Akemi Homura was slightly stunned.

"Magecraft?"

Realizing the opponent started to get serious, Akemi Homura let Miyu stand behind her and spoke.

"..."

With no intention of replying, Sakuya had already decided how to attack next.

She would finish the opponent here.

Using the Magecraft called "Spell Cards."

*Zip zip zip zip zip!!*

Throwing six knives into the air with both hands, they suddenly differentiated. For a moment, it was like fission—a dense swarm of knives appeared before her eyes.

Akemi Homura glanced at the knives ricocheting from the sides and behind, still impressed by this maid's fine manipulation ability.

That dragnet-like attack left her no possibility of dodging.

"But..."

"What a pity."

"These ordinary knives are easily neutralized..."

But strangely, Akemi Homura showed no sign of care or panic. Instead, she was that calm.

The Stand lurking in her body began to exert its efficacy.

"Then... let's begin."

"Trace On!"
