Faced with Bucciarati's Stand, Sticky Fingers, Giorno desperately uses Gold Experience to defend himself.

Giorno is interviewed by a strange man to enter the Passione gang and achieve his dream of becoming a "Gang-Star".

After apparently failing Polpo's test, Giorno is attacked by his stand, Black Sabbath, who tries to pierce his soul with a stand arrow.

News of Polpo's death reach the organization, along with word that he had a huge fortune hidden somewhere. Meanwhile, Giorno meets Bucciarati's gang.

Bucciarati and Abbacchio are the only members of the gang left in the yacht. They have to find out where the enemy stand is hiding and how does it work.

After defeating Zucchero, the gang realizes that he has already told someone else where they were going and why.

Mista chases a Passione member named Sale to stop him from finding Polpo's treasure.

After being promoted to capo, Bucciarati and his gang are tasked to protect the boss' daughter.

Narancia discovers that he is slowly shrinking due to the wound Formaggio's stand, Little Feet, had inflicted on him.

Formaggio traps the now miniature Narancia beneath his foot and attempts to interrogate him, but Narancia resists. A flashback shows Narancia's early life on the streets and his rescue by Bucciarati.

In order to protect Trish from the Hitman Team, Bucciarati and crew's second mission from the boss was to go find a key in Pompei for some kind of vehicle that should aid them later on. Following orders, Giorno, Abbacchio, and Fugo head to Pompei to retrieve the key. When they get there, Fugo notices a suspicious shadow reflecting in a mirror that happened to be placed on one of the pillars there...

The person hiding in the mirror was Illuso from the Hitman Team. Fugo ends up being dragged into the mirror by Illuso's Stand, Man in the Mirror. Fugo then summons his own Stand, Purple Haze. Despite Giorno wanting to find Fugo, Abbacchio decides to go look for the key, since that was their mission. However, once Abbacchio finds the key, he also gets dragged into the mirror world...

"Take Trish to Venice." With their next order from the boss, Bucciarati and his crew head to Naples Station. "Use the key at the water fountain with the turtle on the 6th platform." They find the water fountain, but can't find the place to use the key. Meanwhile, Proscuitto and Pesci from the Hitman Team follow Bucciarati and the others to Naples Station. Bucciarati figures out the mystery behind the key and gets on the express train to Florence, and Proscuitto and Pesci follow.

The Grateful Dead slowly begins to age everybody on the train. With his teammates affected, Mista goes alone to confront the enemy, only to encounter Pesci and his Beach Boy.

Number Six from Sex Pistols manages to warn Bucciarati about the enemies and fights back, but The Grateful Dead's powers are taking a toll on him. Bucciarati steels his resolve and throws himself out with Prosciutto out of the train that's going 150kph. Barely hanging onto life, Prosciutto uses The Grateful Dead again. Pesci decides to take Prosciutto's resolve to heart and attacks Bucciarati.

After defeating Proscuitto and Pesci, Bucciarati and the others head to Venice in a car. Melone from the Hitman Team finds some of Bucciarati's blood at the scene where the train had stopped and then activates Babyface. The powerful remote-control Stand created by assaulting a woman on the train then goes after Bucciarati.

Using Babyface's Stand's ability to turn human parts into other things, Giorno uses his Golden Wind to make parts for the human body. He rebuilds his own body and fights back. Meanwhile, another member of the Hitman Team who's also after Trish, Ghiaccio, was trying to regroup with Melone and was driving to Giorno's location.

Ghiaccio's Stand, White Album is able to envelop him like a bodysuit and able to freeze everything around him to extremely low temperatures. Giorno and Mista somewhat make it to Venice, despite being partially frozen by Ghiaccio. But in order to try to get away from Ghiaccio, Giorno drives their car into the canal and they get stuck. Mista tries to sacrifice himself, but Giorno tells him that what's important right now isn't for him to sacrifice himself but for him to have resolve.
