Dio sends a zombie named Doobie to attack Peggy after she refuses to join his legion. Jonathan and the others arrive in time to save her. Doobie delivers a few bites on Jonathan with the poisonous snakes in his head, but neither the venom nor Doobie stands up to Jonathan's power. Poco and his sister reunite. Dire launches an attack on Dio, but he is caught by Dio's freezing ability and is shattered into pieces. Jonathan slices his sword straight through Dio's body, but Dio freezes his sword and attacks Jonathan's neck. However, Jonathan thaws himself by heating the sword with a torch. Jonathan sets his fists on fire to counter Dio's freezing, and breaks through Dio's defenses with an Overdrive attack. As his body melts and he falls into the abyss, Dio launches a final attack which pierces Jonathan's hand, but does little more than that.
