TJL Chapter 4

The Villa on Hawaii Island, Part 2 (ハワイ島の別荘 その②) originally named Vs. Rohan Kishibe (Vs.岸辺露伴), is the fourth chapter of The JOJOLands and the nine hundred sixty-first chapter of the JoJo's Bizarre Adventure manga.

Summary
Rohan Kishibe seems to think something suspicious is up, which he is correct on as Jodio Joestar is currently watching him from his hiding place on the back porch. Jodio desperately tries to contact his team and inform them that Rohan can detect their abilities, which can only mean that he's a Stand just like they are. His message doesn't get through though as Paco Laburantes and Dragona Joestarare both fighting their hardest to get free from this strange new ability. Paco demands that Usagi give him the scissors that he had earlier so he can cut himself free, realizing that this new stand is somehow tightening even further and has already cut through the leather of his boot. Usagi then turns to Dragona and asks if she needs a pair of scissors as well, offering to use his stand, THE MATTEKUDASAI to create a set for her. Paco desperately attempts to free himself with the scissors, but the strange rope is too strong, and the scissors shatter under duress. Paco cries out in pain as the rope tightens. He says that it feels like ordinary material, but is as strong as stainless steel. Dragona still believes this to be some security system, but Usagi tells them that it's a Stand Ability. Dragona asks whose ability it could possibly be, and Usagi points to the strange cat wandering the mansion. Paco believes this to be a preposterous idea, but Usagi holds tight to his theory. At that moment, Dragona hears Jodio over the radio, warning them that Rohan is coming their way. They panic and raise their masks, trying to decide if they should focus on the string, or trying to escape. They surmise that if they wait and escape instead that they'll be leaving limbs behind, so they attempt to get the string off other ways. Dragona utilizes their Smooth Operators to reposition their thumb and pull the rope off that way. The rope then disappears once it's off, confirming it to be a Stand Ability. Paco then decides to use his ability, The Hustle to quickly cut the rope, which he manages to succeed in doing, freeing himself. The team prepares to escape when Dragona realizes Paco's backpack is open and the diamond has fallen out. Dragona is sure they closed it, but believes that they must have been wrong and attempts to pick it up at the exact moment that Rohan appears around the corner to grab it.

Rohan informs Dragona that if they pick up the diamond again that they'll be in danger. Dragona pulls back. Rohan asks if they're scared now, but Dragona responds that they're just feeling bad for Rohan, who will now need to be tied up. It is then that Paco and Usagi realize what is happening. Suddenly, Rohan uses his ability to open up their hand into a manga and begins to read their information, from their name to their age to their objective. Rohan tells them that they're not in trouble. Though they destroyed a priceless painting and broke into a safe, he disregards this so long as they allow him to take the information stored in their bodies, particularly the information of how they came to learn of the diamond and anything else they might know about it. As he approaches, Paco threatens him, but this doesn't stop Rohan as he summons his stand, Heaven's Door. Paco avoids this with his own stand, which attaches him to the air vents on the ceiling by his flesh. He grips Rohan by the head and commands the others to tie him up as the Diamond falls into Dragona's possession. Usagi attempts to tie up Rohan, but is knocked back by Heaven's Door, his face opening up into the pages of a book. Usagi falls unconscious. Paco is the second to be touched, resulting in the same effect. Rohan proceeds to read the pages of their body and discovers their names and ages, as well as who they're working for, Meryl Mei Qi. Rohan discovers that the info was leaked when the diamond came through customs and that their goal is simply to get a share from selling it. Rohan is relieved that this was all it was, though the Joestar team are all still in an unsavory position. Suddenly, Dragona realizes that the diamond has somehow slipped through their hands, hinting that there is more than meets the eye in regards to this Diamond...
