So uh this was my idea for the plot and characters of Part 9.

It would take place in the main universe and it would start at Joseph Joestar's funeral, where you would see characters like Smokey, Polnareff (with Giorno holding his turtle body), Josuke... The main character would be Shizuka Joestar who would be suddenly left with no parents ( assuming Suzie Q dies soon after Joseph) and Josuke would offer to her come back and stay with him  (shizuka would be 17'ish ?) with his family back at Morioh. Back at Morioh Josuke would tell the story of how Joseph and him found her when she was a baby (Jospeh never told Shizuka how they found her) and after this Shizuka would go and search for her real parents (this section of the plot would be filler and fan-service at Morioh with old characters like Okuyasu appearing but not take too much of the story) until she finds out that her mother was murdered by a stand user (Kira killed her ) and her dad was just a drug addict that had begun a new family and forgotten about Shizukas existance.

After this Shizuka would say her goodbyes and would go back to America to her old house by boat (this is because Suzie Q always insisted in going on boats instead of planes when with Joseph, and she was taught this since little) but during the trip the boat would be assaulted by a gang of pirates as they had the mission of stealing an important suitcase that was brought by one of the passengers aboard. In the confusion the gang would see the potential of Shizuka and her stand and after defeating her would then invite her on their crew, which she would accept.

This would become her main team and from this point onwards you have lots of posibilites to develop the story, characters and the main JoJo villain in a setting of piracy and anarchy.

The main theme would be that of IDENTITY as Shizuka searches for a place to belong and to discover her own identity. Is she a Joestar ? Is she a (Biological moms surname) ? Whos is Shizuka ?

What you all think ?
