I just realized something…. At the end of Part 1 of JoJo, Dio's casket was deep in the sea by the Canary Islands, but based upon the time period and when Dio attacked Johnathan they shouldn't been terribly far from England as it had been less than a day from what I remember that he attacked so he should have only been barely outside of English and French territory and fought in the English Straight so that made sense in my head as I wrote it that way that his casket was there instead.
Am I gonna change it? No but if anyone ever did get hypercritical about that this would be my chapter about why I made that change in the original worlds story, but seeing that nobody said anything after well over a few months of starting this fic either nobody cared about that detail or just like me you guys forgot about it as well, but oh well.

The Blade that Muzan was wielding was genuinely making me nervous, something about it wasn't right, ignoring the fact that it was made of flesh, bone, teeth and eyes that stared at me, no not the physical appearance of it.
No that sword, it was alive, and it had a soul…. One that was even darker than what I had seen the Darkness Devil.
I have seen Evil and as someone who is considered to many to be Pure Evil myself, at least in my younger years as with over 40 years trapped in a coffin my views on things changed, I'm still evil, extremely evil, but I can't confidently call myself that anymore, but that swords corruption and pure Evil unnerved even me as I realized that blade was even more dangerous than the blade I was holding right now.
A blade that's a perfect counter to immortals with instant regeneration and my blade paled in comparison to his, I wouldn't be surprised it does the same thing physically by hampering my healing speed as a result of taking damage, but the danger I feel is what else it could possibly do.
After a quick analysis that ran through my brain, I came to realize what it was just because of what he said when he summoned his own personal blade, "So, you bought your own Zanpakuto, just to prepare for the day you had to deal with me huh? And not just a normal one it seems, but one that can hurt living beings and not just Spirits."
"Very observant of you Dio, yes I, along with my demons, were causing massive chaos and fear all across Japan just to help empower me so I could buy this to help me deal with you, feeling such a looming threat it finally answered my call! Now I really do have a way to kill you!" Muzan says triumphantly as he holds his sword hilt near his face as he holds it in the Ko Gasumi stance as he stares me down with a smirk on his face.
"Heeeeeh, you almost make me think I might actually need to use Time stop to deal with you, but your still not worth it." I say with a smirk and put the sword back into its sheath as I hold the sword in the Iai style as I got serious.
Hearing that made him frown because he was being so underestimated, damaging his Ego, but this played to his favor, "Your going to regret looking down on me Dio!"
*BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMM!!!*
Both of our oppressive auras clashed with one another as we held our blades while spiked tentacles came out from behind his back as the bladed tips pointed right at me.
*Kuuuuuuuuuuuuuuooooooooooohhhhhh*
I began to channel my Hamon to the highest degree as my body began to glow not just in the golden color of Hamon but the glow of what is Ultimate Hamon as my body was surrounded in a rainbow of colors from all parts of the light spectrum.
Then my body was reinforced with Armament Haki as Singularity: The Sun, circulated out from my hands and covered my blade, I had to get serious here or else I could get severely injured, or worse be permanently damaged by that blade so I have to go all out in this fight as I was able to also summon the Worlds arms beneath my own to be another hidden defense of mine.
"This Ends Now!" (x2)
We then launch at one another as we both unleash a full on assault on one another as our blades clashed while The World deflected the attacks of his whip spines.
His mouths across his body tried to use some massive suction force to pull me away but my feet stayed firmly on the ground as my shadow was locking me to where I was at unless I wanted to go somewhere of my own will.
It was a flurry of clashing blades that were sending shockwaves throughout the entirety of the Infinity Castle itself as both Kokushibou and Akaza looked on in awe at the majesty of the fight and the strength of their Lord.
"Black Blood: Brambles!" Muzan decides to send out a wave of black tendrils in the form of spiky brambles that increased the number of things attacking Dio Simultaneously but even with those getting past his Stand and attacking his true body it only caused sparks to fly with none actually causing any true damage besides ruining his yukata as a result.
"Cheap Tricks! Then how about this!" I shout out as I use a move I haven't used in years after claiming my new current body, but after becoming the Ultimate Lifeform and having enough time to acclimate to once more I decided to use it as game changer.
My eyes quickly glow which makes Muzan try to duck his head out of the way but is two slow as two layer beams come right out of my eyes with one piercing through his left eye and out the back of his skull.
"Guh! Bastard!" He grabs at the side of his face as his face itself was burning as those laser beams were empowered by the sun themselves so his regeneration was slowed as a result.
"You left yourself wide open!" I shout out as I shoulder tackle him, forcing his arms upward to leave his chest open as I used the Iai style and faster than the eye could see cut straight across his chest leaving a deep bloody wound on his body.
"UUUGGGGHHH!!!! No! I refuse to go down like this!" Muzan quickly grabs at his chest using his Blood Demon Art to forcibly close the wound with his brambles as he pulls back his sword as it glows in an ominous aura.
"Hyakki Yagyō: Shi Yagyō!" (Night Parade of 100 Demons: Deaths Night Parade!)
He shouted out as he used one of his ultimate moves of his Zanpaktou as it launched a wave attack right at me.
'TIME ACCELERATION!' I internally shout out in fear as I see the monster that he had unleashed with that attack.
But even as my body was moving faster than normal time causing everyone besides myself to be slowed considerably the attack that was in my eyes the actual Personfiaction of death was barreling towards me but at a speed I could keep up with in this mode.
'Singularity! I am-
*Clash!* but it still reached me and was only being blocked by both the World and the Darkness Sword working in tandem.
"UGGGGGHHHHH!!!!" I had to grit my teeth as I felt an immense pain ripping through my body as I could see The Worlds hands beginning to crumble and break apart.
'Damnit!!! It's attacking my soul directly! Shit! Shit! SHIT! SINGULARITY! FOR I AM THE CENTER OF THE WORLD!!!!' I shouted out the last part of the chant internally.
*Crack! Crack! BOOOOOOM! Whoosh!*
All that happened in a blink of an eye though Muzan did witness defend he grinned when he saw his attack go straight through his body as he watched Dio topple and fall over to the ground as all the energy faded from his body and his dreadful sword dissipated into crumbling Darkness.
"HuhuhahahaHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! I did it! Your own arrogance lead you to your own end DIO!" Muzan laughed maniacally as he felt nothing was left inside of DIO with no breath or heart beat as all the energy seeped out of his lifeless corpse signifying he was truely dead from that attack.
"Now I'll be taking your body as compensation to allow me to finally conquer the sun!" He said as he stood over Dio's body as he lifted his arm for the final strike upon Dio's body to assimilate him into himself.
But as he was about to prepare for the final strike he noticed something that he was ignoring the entire time, his two useless subordinates who only worth was buying him time, but what made him stop was what he saw.
Their bodies weren't regenerating and-
*Crush! Crack! BOOM!!!!*
Before Muzan could even react a fist pierced him through his chest that cause his body to begin to burn from the inside out.
"DIO!!! YOU BASTARD!!!!" He shouted out as he was only able to realize now that the body before him was none other than just a copy of him made of darkness that faded into nothingness.
"HOW?! HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE?!?!" Cried out as he felt his body being disintegrated from the inside out, but-
*Shink! Shink! Shink!*
-all he got were several fingers stabbed into the back of his skull.
"Unfortunately for you I side stepped my own fate, For this is Your End and My Beginning, Muzan!" I said back in response as the life began to drain out of him.
"NO!!! YOUR GOING DOWN WITH ME BASTARD!!!!!" Muzan shouted out as he refused to die like this, so with his remaining strength he turned his blade on himself and plunged it into himself in a desperate attempt to Kill Dio for good.
"NOT A CHANCE!!!" I use my left arm, which was still piercing his chest with all my strength to stop his blade, but unfortunately side stepping fate has heavy drawbacks.
"UUUGGGGGHHHHH!!!!!" I screamed out in pain as the blade pierced my hand and went straight through cutting right through to my forearm only being halted by the strength in my arms muscles to stop the blade from going any further as I pulled more and more of Muzan's authority and Lifeforce from his body.
But soon enough Muzan lost strength in his arms as his body began to completely collapse as his sword began to shatter and break before both he and his blade disappeared into nothingness right before me.
I soon fell to my knees and gripped at my mangled arm as I thought to myself, 'Those rewards better be worth it….'
Dio vs Muzan (Winner Dio, Cost for Victory, Partial destruction of The World, Soul Severing of the left Arm, Extreme Spritual Energy Exhaustion, Singularity: For I Am the Center of The World, Cooldown of 1 Year.)
Victory, but at a heavy price.
*****
Before anyone complains, no this isn't a permanent nerf so I don't want to hear anyone crying about it alright?
This is the cost of underestimating someone who will do everything possible to kill him while he decided to nerf himself for more benefits, but obviously good benefits that at the time he saw they were and for the most part still are worth it.
Also Waifu(s) Alert, this is your mandatory Waifu(s) Alert, thank you for your patience.
