TJL Chapter 7

Jungle Warefare (Part 2) (ジャングルの攻防 その2) is the seventh chapter of The JOJOLands and the nine hundred sixty-fourth chapter of the JoJo's Bizarre Adventure manga.

Summary
Jodio, still suspended in mid-air by string. As he hangs there, he wonders why cats of all things would be attacking them. All the while, down below, Dragona and Paco are on the ground, being assaulted by these strings, their bodies sewn together. They tell Jodio that he needs to break the branch with his stand, but Jodio says that it's too far away. It's out of his range, and he begins to wonder if somehow the cats took that into account when they launched the attack. Paco says they need to get up against the tree trunk, but Jodio warns them that they need to stay beneath him. They do as commanded, slowly working closer to the tree trunk. Paco then uses his stand to slowly climb up the tree trunk to hand a pair of scissors to Jodio, but just then, they notice the tree is full of cats. Jodio makes the horrifying discovery that the cats know distance and understand their ranges. Dragona further elaborates that they don't need to work with the wind, as the strings are now coming down vertically. Slowly, Dragona and Paco are getting the life squeezed out of them. Jodio manages to move his position slightly, which allows him to brind one of the cats into his range. He uses his stand to shoot one of the cats out of the tree, which causes one of the sets of string to go limp. However, this angers the remaining cats, whose attacks intensify. Paco suggests they get into the cleft in the tree to hide. As they do this, Jodio is caught in a net and being strangled by the wire. Dragona attempts to free Jodio to no avail. Suddenly, out of nowhere, a vehicle smashes into the tree, causing the cats to lose balance and slide out of the tree. The wires go limp due to this. It is revealed that Usagi didn't abandon them. Usagi proceeds to explain that he had already won, as he had swiped some caviar from Rohan's home and mixed it into some hamburgers he had and fed it to the cats. He explains that the caviar was very expensive, and that these cats are being drawn to the most valuable thing. They go to attack Usagi, but he drops the Lava Rock which bounces into the grass, causing the cats to almost slip and fall off of him, proving his point. They're after rock. He then asks Dragona to ask THE MATTEKUDASAI for the net, which Dragona does. With that net, they catch the cats. All the while, the true value of the Lava Rock is slowly becoming more and more aparent, and Jodio remembers the words of Rohan, informing him to be careful who he tells about the rock, and to not trust anyone, even his own friends...
