If he erases the time shown during Epitaph's predictions, then Diavolo (and only Diavolo) becomes exempt from fate during that time. I'd say he's never shown to defy his own predictions. I also mentioned the example of GER. He does predict the stone GER threw was gonna pierce his hand yet he didn't erase time during that event (And RtZ has absolutely nothing to do with the wound he receives, that was just GER's sheer strength).

Doppio asks Diavolo if the future he sees is inevitable and he answers that's the truth (Although that only happens due to his madness). My point is that Diavolo should hardly ever receive a prediction as terrible as the ones he received there if he's fully capable to use both KC + Epitaph.
