The Pillar Man, Santana, Part 4 (Chapter)

JoJo vs. The Ultimate Life-Form 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 though 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 containing both he and Santana at Stroheim’s command. However, this does little more than tickle him and Soldier-Santana retaliates by pointing his finger like a gun at the other officers. This initially makes Stroheim believe Santana is only repeating information but this belief is shattered when Santana questions them about if they disturbed his sleep, reconfirming that he has high intelligence. Santana then actually shoots bullets from his fingers back at the soldiers, which he took from the ones lodged in his chest after the soldiers shooting him.

A myserious soldier then tries to aide Speedwagon's escape from the line of fire but when Speedwagon refuses his help the soldier laments he was always stubborn confusing Speedwagon. It is then that Santanna sheds the inflated soldier’s body which startles the other soldiers. The other strange soldier then proceeds to tear out the hair of a nearby officer. Using his hair the mysterious soldier then uses the “Ripple Hair Attack” revealing himself as Joseph to Speedwagon. Moreover, in using this attack Joseph deflects Santana's bullets that were coming straight towards him.
