Summary
Having made a mould of the Boss' face and fingerprints from the negatives, Team Bucciarati leaves the beach while Giorno researches the fingerprints. Although Trish realizes that the Boss was nearby, Bucciarati is against seeking him at the moment as new enemies must be gathering and they still aren't certain of the Boss' identity. However, the team's every effort to investigate all possible databases of fingerprints, from criminal records to death records, come empty.

Suddenly, someone directly calls the team through the laptop, declaring that they're allies both trying to defeat the Boss of Passione: Diavolo. Proving that they are actually working against Diavolo, the caller then invites Team Bucciarati to meet in Rome, showing a picture of the Arrow and claiming that there is another hidden potential that can be acquired, the likes of which could defeat King Crimson. Bucciarati accepts the deal and the team leaves Sardegna on boat. However, Diavolo has been observing the team and notes the air of determination around them. Telling Doppio to investigate the coast, he discovers the stela and sees the negative of his face. Frustrated about his past that keeps reemerging, Diavolo orders Doppio to call for the worst Stand Users he has left: Cioccolata and Secco.

Meanwhile, Team Bucciarati's mysterious ally explains the origin of the Arrow. The Arrows are made from a meteorite that has crashed in Greenland, which was rediscovered in 1987 by a team of surveyors. Despite the frozen climate preventing bacterias and viruses alike from proliferating, the team all fell ill, developed tumors and died. More importantly, one of the victims displayed extrasensorial powers, shooting electricity from his fingers. A virus contained within the meteor killed the men, but in turn could grant power if the host survived, leading to a man creating the Arrows and letting Stands proliferate in the world. However, the caller then refrains from revealing the hidden potential of the Arrows. When Bucciarati where they should meet precisely, the caller tells them to go to the Colosseum.

Night has fallen as Team Bucciaratis arrive at a small coastal village near Rome, Mista and Narancia on the lookout while everyone else are in Coco Jumbo. Seeing some drunkards on the seaside promenade, the team prefers to hide and observe for the time being. Two drunk men argue, one wanting to piss in the public fountain, the other prefering to do it in a letterbox. The first man clings to the fountain as his friend tries to pull him, but his body suddenly is split in two as a strange substance eats at his body. Seeing the grey goo eating at all the people nearby, Mista understands that they are under attack. However, when he draws his gun, Mista's hand is also attacking by the substance.

Cioccolata's character is explored in detail. Cioccolata, age 34, is a murderous former surgeon obsessed with observing the death and suffering of others. He notably modified doses of anesthetics so that patients would awake in the middle of the operation. Moreover, he has a history of tricking people into getting operated and even treated old people he seemingly took care of as guinea pig. Meanwhile, Secco is the insane and human pet of Cioccolata. Back to the present, Doppio has boarded a plane toward Rome and is instructed by the Boss to carefully watch Cioccolata and Secco. Despite his disgust, the Boss is sure that their combination is extremely powerful and now must be restrained afterward.

Meanwhile at the village, Team Bucciarati notices that the whole village is being devoured by a strange mold. Unable to detect the enemy, Narancia jumps down to the boat but then becomes infected by the mold too alongside everyone in the turtle. Despite their condition, Giorno guesses that the Stand attack is triggered by downward movement, being inspired by existing types of mold that specifically prefer lox altitude and keep spreading there. Narancia sees his whole body decomposing at high speed and tries to throw Coco Jumbo to Mista but his hand falls apart. Fortunately, Mista shoots at the boat's engine and makes it explode, sending Narancia up to the shores and saving the team. Bruno gets out to replace Narancia and sends him to the turtle to be treated by Giorno. Deciding that the priority is to reach Rome, Bucciarati and Mista choose to ascend some stairs to reach a parking lot.

Unbeknownst to the Team, Cioccolata and Secco are filming them from a vantage point. Seeing the team, Cioccolata is astonished that someone could survive his Stand Green Day, if only for a moment.
