Red Hot Chili Pepper, Part 7 (Chapter)

Red Hot Chili Pepper (7) (レッド・ホット・チリ・ペッパー その⑦), originally in the WSJ release, is the three hundred thirteenth chapter of the JoJo's Bizarre Adventure manga. It is also the forty-eighth chapter of Diamond is Unbreakable.

Summary
On his way to the boat, Okuyasu is still anxious not to have spotted Red Hot Chili Pepper, and there are now only 25 seconds for Akira to kill Josuke and Koichi before he can catch up to Jotaro. Having no other choice, Akira releases his Stand's full power, to the point where it emits waves of energy that are bright enough to blind onlookers, at the cost of depleting Red Hot Chili Pepper's energy. It attacks Crazy Diamond, who tries to retaliate, but after a small moment, Red Hot Chili Pepper punches Crazy Diamond and Josuke with it across the marina, then punches them into a forklift truck. When Red Hot Chili Pepper advances toward Josuke to gloat and finish him off, Josuke reconstitutes a rubber tire which was destroyed earlier and traps Chili Pepper inside of it. Akira panics, but soon reveals that his Stand still has enough power to punch through the tire. However, when it does so, the tire flies toward the ocean with Red Hot Chili Pepper still in it, and the water disperses the electricity which has been fueling the Stand. Akira loses consciousness and stands still in the middle of the marina.
