Diavolo smiled, and as if a demon was transforming, his bones made a cracking sound, and his muscles slowly began to grow.
Illuso's eyes widened in disbelief as he watched him transform from a timid youth into a distinguished middle-aged man.
He casually took off his rose-colored sweater, and the moment it came off, his pink hair spread out, covered with strange purple-green spots, revealing a hollow black lace-patterned undershirt.
His pupils instantly changed into astonishing double pupils of green and yellow.
This was a devil-like existence.
Illuso took a deep breath, convincing himself that this was the true face of the Boss.
This was the Boss who controlled the entire "PASSIONE", this was the answer they were searching for.
Illuso calmed down, analyzed carefully, and got the answer: the look in his eyes and everything he revealed just now were real.
He was well-versed in the art of assassination, yet he couldn't tell that the previous youth was actually this man's disguise.
Is this a dual personality? That answer is too absurd.
He didn't have Risotto's long-term observation and perception of Diavolo from the original work, so he couldn't confirm whether he had a dual personality or not.
At this moment, Diavolo's mindset was completely different from when he killed Risotto in the original work; it was the Diavolo personality from the very beginning, and Torbio was just a small disguise for a short time.
Compared to the possibility of being killed, what Illuso was thinking about was how to spread the word about the Boss's true identity that he had already seen.
"Quick, tell me, who told you about my daughter!" Diavolo demanded sharply.
Illuso calmed down and couldn't help but feel a little strange, wondering why the Boss didn't know about his daughter's information.
He had actually been suspicious for a long time, but due to saving face and avoiding trouble, he had never said anything.
That is, since Mista's message even knew the name of the Boss's daughter, it meant the Boss also knew his daughter's name, and coupled with the information exposed by the facial features at the beginning, the Boss should have known about Trish much earlier than them.
They simply didn't have time to reach Cagliari and find Trish.
Unless the Boss didn't know his daughter's name at all, or the facial features hadn't had time to mention that they were looking for the Boss's daughter, but this was impossible, because the facial features had time to summon the Bodyguard Team to stop them at the port, so how could they not have told the Boss the information?
Then there's only one answer: the Boss didn't know his daughter's name at all; he only found out recently, at least around the same time as them.
So how did Mista know?
Johnson said Mista learned it from Bucciarati; how could Bucciarati know something the Boss didn't... Wait!
Johnson said?!
It was Johnson who said it, not Mista; the Boss's daughter, the Boss's hometown, the Boss's past, he said it all.
Could this all be part of his plan? His father is still a vampire, and he has a connection with Kujo Jotaro of the SPW Foundation.
Illuso seemed to understand a startling piece of news.
"How could you possibly know about me?" Diavolo said angrily.
His target was not only the Assassination Team but also Heaven's Whisper, who knew his past, and the person who provided information to the Assassination Team.
'Polpo' could not have sold two pieces of information at the same time, both to himself and to the Assassination Team, and the Assassination Team could not have afforded to buy it.
Moreover, from 'Polpo's tone, deciphering Heaven's Whisper was not easy.
Excluding the Heaven's Whisper as a source of information, Diavolo was even more concerned about where the Assassination Team got its information.
"I'll say it again, if you tell me the source of your information, you will be the only one from the Assassination Team to survive and become an executive."
Illuso roughly understood Johnson Joffrey's 'conspiracy'—to use their Assassination Team to get rid of the Boss and then completely become the new Boss.
But if he revealed this now, the Assassination Team would also be finished; they had already embarked on this path of betrayal, so he could only gamble on Johnson Joffrey's character.
Unbelievable, that I would actually trust the descendant of a vampire and a human.
Diavolo's long hair fluttered slightly as he saw the future, then he frowned.
Is this the future? I've seen it clearly, so there's no point in persuading him further.
"But you're right, I used to admire you." Diavolo said slowly.
Illuso knew that things had come to this; he had never considered betrayal.
Illuso suddenly pulled out a mirror from his embrace—
"mirror man!!"
The mirror was instantly smashed to the ground, and countless mirrors immediately appeared, each one a portal to the mirror world.
A gray Stand suddenly reached out its hands from the mirror, attempting to pull Diavolo into the mirror world.
Diavolo subtly curved his lips, even mockingly closing his eyes—
"King Crimson!"
Like the striking of a heavy drum, the world began to decompose; he began to transcend dimensions, surpassing the flow of time, everything within the scope of his foresight—
During this period, everyone had to act according to the predetermined facts he had seen, but only he could change things at will.
"He's been pulled in! I won!"
Illuso couldn't help but say with joy.
"People always say that when they think they've won, and at the same time, they lose their composure, like you."
"Pfft—"
Like the sound of a fruit being crushed, Illuso suddenly felt a numb sensation in his chest. He looked down and saw his chest pierced by the hands of a red and white Stand.
Wh... What?!
What's going on?! Why, I was clearly about to touch him.
"This is the fact I erased, the fact that you caught me." Diavolo stood behind him, one hand on his hip, leaning diagonally behind him.
Erasing facts?! Illuso violently spat out a mouthful of blood, his mind filled with disbelief that such an invincible existence could exist.
Diavolo walked in front of him, looked down at him, and shook his head, his gaze actually tinged with a sense of loss. His objective was not achieved, but he had known in his foresight the fact that he would be pulled into the mirror world in the future. He erased the future he saw, and in that erased period of time when only he could act, he went around behind him.
"Life is so fragile; it only follows its predetermined future. Only the future I see through can transcend everything."
