The Pillar Man, Santana, Part 9 (Chapter)

The Spaghetti Battle (The Pillar Man: Santana - Part 9 in the JoJonium release) is the sixty-second chapter of the JoJo's Bizarre Adventure manga. It is also the eighteenth chapter of Part II: Battle Tendency.

Summary
Santana, having been turned to stone, is taken by the Speedwagon Foundation to their headquarters in Washington D.C. There, his corpse is maintained using a new ultraviolet light technology and kept under heavy surveillance. After careful experimentation, Speedwagon and the scientists discover that Santana is not dead, but merely preserved in a stone-like state. The scientists seem relieved, but Speedwagon shares the information he had obtained from Stroheim and a picture of the cave where Santana was initially discovered. On one of the walls, four Stone Masks could be seen, indicating that were three more Pillar Men in Europe. Using the inscriptions on the wall, and a conversion of the Mexican calender, they discover that the other Pllar Men would be awakening in the current year.

Having flown to Rome, Joseph is seen enjoying an Italian dish "Spaghetti Di Nero", but not before being interrupted by a man serenading a women at another table. In utter disgust at couth men like that, Joseph infuses some of the noodles from his pasta with the Ripple and flings it towards the other guy. The man catches the noodles with his own fork and pasta and quickly redirects the noodles back to Joseph. Joseph holds his wine glass up and the noodles pierce straight through it. Joseph is left in awe as a member of the Speedwagon Foundation walks in. He later discovers that theman across the room is none other than Caesar Anthonio Zeppeli, the man they traveled to Rome to meet.
