It narrates the clash between Bucciarati and the Boss, whose King Crimson's time erasure power overwhelm Bucciarati, and his eventual forced escape.

Summary
Bucciarati tracks the Boss to the basement, and a fight ensues. The Boss reveals his Stand King Crimson and his power of time erasure. Overwhelmed by King Crimson's power, Bucciarati is fatally injured while the Boss isn't even wounded but manages to escape with Trish and joins Giorno.
