The Pillar Man, Santana, Part 4 (Chapter)

JoJo vs. The Ultimate Life-Form (The Pillar Man: Santana - Part 4 in the JoJonium release) is the fifty-seventh chapter of the JoJo's Bizarre Adventure manga. It is also the thirteenth chapter of Part II: Battle Tendency.

Summary
Stroheim and Speedwagon, both shocked by Santana's escape, resolve to destroy Santana somehow before he reaches the outside world. Stroheim is especially concerned, knowing that Santana could reach them in the observation room through the air duct. Suddenly Santana dives through the nearby grate and into the closest soldier’s body, inflating him to almost double the soldier’s original size.

Without hesitation the rest of the soldiers open fire on their Nazi comrade's body, at Stroheim’s command. However, this does little more than tickle him and Soldier-Santana points his finger like a gun at the other officers. This makes Stroheim believe that Santana is only repeating information, but this belief is shattered when Santana asks if they disturbed his sleep, confirming that he has high intelligence. Santana shoots bullets from his fingers back at the soldiers, which he took from the ones lodged in his chest after the soldiers shot him.

A myserious soldier tries to aid Speedwagon's escape from the line of fire, but when Speedwagon refuses his help the soldier laments that he was always stubborn. Santana sheds the inflated soldier’s body, startling the other soldiers. The other strange soldier tears out the hair of a nearby officer. Using his hair, the mysterious soldier uses the “Hamon Hair Attack”, revealing himself as Joseph to Speedwagon. Using this attack Joseph deflects Santana's bullets that were coming straight towards him.
