Summary
The fishermen try to pry open the emerged steel chest, having presuming it to have treasure, and briefly taking note that the side of the box has the name "DIO" inscribed on it. Days later, the ship is discovered in the middle of the ocean with no one aboard. None of the equipment has been touched, and all that is left is the empty steel chest.

Joseph Joestar arrives in Japan with a mysterious partner and is greeted by Holy. The three head to the prison, where Joseph confronts Jotaro and asks him to leave the jail cell. Jotaro refuses at first due to his "evil spirit" and takes the pinky off Joseph's prosthetic hand. Joseph reveals his partner to be an Egyptian fortune teller by the name of Muhammad Avdol, whom also reveals a spirit of his own. Avdol's spirit manifests itself as a humanoid with a bird-like head and the ability to produce flames. The spirit launches a projectile of flames, pinning Jotaro against the back wall of the jail cell. Having no other choice, Jotaro releases his own spirit.
