Seriously, the Joestar family is located in a bizarre universe filled with stands that grant mankind the ability to reach the ultimate physical summit, where time can be conquered and manipulated. And unfortunately, this ability is kept in hands of evil ones. Today we pick two of the most iconic time manipulator in Jojo series and offer them a chance to face off.

Dio Brando, the vampiric incarnation of bottomless evilness who holds a grudge against the Joestar family and will never quit until the last breed of Joestar is cleared from our universe.

Diavolo, the Passione mafia boss with personality disorder who corrupted the whole Italy and eliminate anyone that knows his true identity to wipe out all the traces of his past.

Both of these men are ruthless evil-doers, master planners and time manipulators, when they engage in a duel to death, who will stand out and reach the ultimate summit ?

DIO
"I reject my humanity, Jojo !"

- Dio Brando

Dio Brando was raised in a London slump, where his dad's abusive and alcoholic behaviors and treatments resulted in his greediness and twisted persona. Later he was adopted by the Joestar Family. He took it as a chance to become wealthy and powerful. He constantly taunted and tricked Jonathan Joestar, the family son, in an attempt to further his own plots.

Seven years down the line Dio attempted to poison his adopted father in order to gain the Joestar estate for himself, planning to kill Jonathan with a mysterious stone mask which he had been researching. Testing the mask on a random man he found that rather than killing him it instead turned him into a vampire who almost killed him, but he was saved by the sun rising and turning the man to dust. On his return to the Joestar mansion he was confronted by Jonathan who had found out about his plot and had alerted the police who were ready and waiting to arrest him. Cornered and left with nothing to lose Dio wore and activated the stone mask, turning himself into a vampire. After several battles with Jonathan and others, he was sent to the bottom of Atlantic Ocean by a dying Jonathan whose dead body also sank into the sea.

However, decades later, Dio resurrected himself by connecting his head to Jonathan's body and somehow ended up in Egypt, where he met an old lady named Enya, who was in possession of the bow and arrow, which granted him a stand that could stop time named the World. Now with his powers updated, DIO is ready to face any opponents.

Weapons
The World

A humanoid Stand, The World is tall and has a very muscular build. It wears a headpiece covering its face to below the place of its nose, slanting at a steep angle from the base of its forehead to a peak situated above the rear of its head by about half its height, leaving the face of an inverted triangle visible to the front; somewhat similar to the Red Crown of Lower Egypt.

It wears small, simple twin diving cylinders on its back, connecting via short, twin ridged cables to the rear of its mask; perhaps secured by thick, ridged or puffered straps running from the rear of its waist over both its shoulders to its front. The back of both its hands bear the shape of a simple clock face. Its chin, the base of its abdomen, its crotch and its knees are topped by heart shapes. Plates on its shins, its footwear bears curved, sharply pointed toes, similar to those of DIO's outfit in Part 3.

It's revealed in DIO's notebook that he intended to engrave 14 words on his Stand to remember them, although it's unknown if he actually does so before his death. (From JJBA wikia).

The world has several abilities.
 * Superhuman strength/speed/accuracy : The World can punch through a man with ease, and can catch up with the extreme speed of Jotaro's stand Star Platium.
 * Stopping the time : The World's key power is its ability to stop time, allowing only itself, DIO and anyone with the same power, to act within the duration of stopped time.  In the stopped time, DIO can move himself and any object he touches, allowing him to strike his defenseless enemies, move to a superior position, and toy with his victims. The objects DIO potentially throw can momentarily move in the stopped time before stopping, thus a flurry of thrown knives could fly for several meters before stopping near Jotaro. It is notable that DIO needs to consciously think of toggling the time stop, surprise attacks can prevent him from stopping time. Because of DIO's weakened state during Part 3, this ability only works for up to 5 seconds in DIO's frame of reference before time flows again. However, also due to DIO's immortality, the duration of stopped time increases as DIO becomes more accustomed to The World and the scar around his neck heals, reaching a seen maximum of nine seconds towards the end of Part 3. However, had he not died, the period during for which DIO could have stopped time would have continued to grow(From JJBA wikia).

Other Weapons

 * Throwing Knives : DIO carries at least 15 or more throwing knives with him.
 * Vampiric Abilities : Being a Vampire, Dio has superhuman strength, endurance, agility and regenerating ability. However heavy blows to brain or heart can also harm him and reduce his regenarting speed, or even kill him,while consuming fresh human blood can temporarily power him up.
