Vento Aureo (2001)
Introduced as one of the pursuers of Polpo's treasure, Zucchero attacked the boat that Buccellati's gang was on before deflating everyone except Leone Abbacchio and Buccellati with his Stand.

He is soon defeated by Buccellati after getting his head "zipped off" in a ranged surprise attack. Later, Buccellati's gang tortures him by hanging his head off a fish hook while having his eye roasted by a pair of spectacles to interrogate him on the whereabouts of his partner.

Thanks to Abbacchio's Stand, the group learned that Zucchero has already given off their location and the rest of the plan involving Capri Island. After Sale's defeat he was left unconscious on the boat.
