Summary
Rock Human females are identical to human women and human men can reproduce with them. Rock Human mothers birth during the warmer seasons and pregnancy only lasts six months. The mother leaves the child in the forest after being born. Life expectancy is very low of newborn Rock Humans hence they are extremely small.

When attacked by Asian giant hornets, the child latches onto them without being harmed. When finally in the nest, the child will seek the queen and take refuge in the soft part of her body. For seventeen years the young Rock Human survives this way and learns about the world around it. The Rock Human will grow suddenly, kill all the wasps and venture out into the world. Tooru has firsthand experience of this since he is a Rock Human.

Four billion years ago when life was based on carbon, some based on silicon and were able to develop seamlessly alongside carbon based organisms. Rock Humans are what will remain if humans fall. Rock Humans do not experience love and find the earth's formations to be blessings. They create homes from various stones that supplies them with more power.

In a flashback, Mamezuku is at his father's funeral. He hugs Norisuke and tells him about his father's pear orchard. They talk about the strange bugs that would eat all the pears. At the funeral, Mamezuku notices a man he doesn't recognize, but couldn't ponder on it.

Presently Mamezuku realizes that man was Akefu. Akefu reveals he is a stand named Wonder of U. Dododo De Dadada appears behind Josuke while he is attacked with the crane. When he goes to use Soft & Wet, a weird liquid begins seeping from his body. This must be the Rock Insect's attack. Turns out the landslide that took Mamezuku's father was caused by Wonder of U.
