When Joseph and Lisa Lisa caught up with Caesar, all that remained was a bloodstained bubble containing Wamuu's antidote ring, Caesar's headband, and a large cross-shaped rock. Touching it, Joseph was not only filled with an incredible amount of Hamon, but understanding of his friend's passing. Allowing themselves a single moment of mourning, they pushed on into the hotel. In Kars and Wamuu's inner chamber, the two very quickly found themselves surrounded by the pillar men's vampire army, forcing them to bluff regarding a supposed bomb attached to the Red Stone of Aja that, without being reset or disarmed, would destroy is enough to make using it to become the ultimate lifeform impossible. Instead, they would only give up the stone if they were defeated in two one-on-one competitions, with the pillar men declaring the nearby Skeleton Heel Stone arena to be the ideal location. In the first competition, Joseph and Wamuu engaged in a chariot race to the death lead by a pair of vampire horses. After seemingly making the wrong choice at every turn, but then using said choice to turn the tables on Wamuu, they were left without their horses in the middle of the arena, Wamuu without his arms and Joseph unable to move and low on Hamon without the time to regain it due to Wamuu's Atmospheric Rift. Throwing a Molotov cocktail he had prepared before the race, Wamuu quickly destroyed the projectile, allowing Joseph to throw Caesar's headband, causing the oil-soaked shreds to be sucked into Wamuu's body and burn him apart from the inside. While Wamuu was an honorable warrior to the end, Kars immediately resorted to trickery in his duel with Lisa Lisa, using a vampire disguised as him to get the drop on her. Before could land the killing blow, however, Stroheim, Speedwagon, and a platoon of UV soldiers arrived, obliterating Kars' vampire army and forcing him to retreat with Joseph's help. As Kars lay in a pit of spikes, Speedwagon revealed Lisa Lisa's true name to Joseph; Elizabeth Joestar, Joseph's mother, forced into hiding after killing the RAF commander and zombie minion of Dio responsible for the death of his father, George Joestar. As the Speedwagon Foundation forces crowded around the pit to finish off Kars, however, he revealed the true intent of his plot; he had already taken the red stone. Using the UV light and his stone mask, Kars ascended to the state of the ultimate lifeform. Holding no animosity to the humans that had allowed him to achieve his dream, he focused his full attention on Joseph, the one who killed his comrades. Snagging the Aja, he used his secret technique, knowing that his friends and family weren't targets, climbing aboard a plane with Stroheim. Pursued by Kars aloft powerful wings firing beasts of all sort to consume the plane, Joseph found his target, a volcanic island just off the coast. Taking a hard landing, the crust of the island cracked, plunging Kars into the magma below, but even this couldn't kill the ultimate lifeform, who ascended clad in crustacean armor to sever Joseph's hand before finishing Joseph off with a Hamon-infused strike. Unconsciously, Joseph raised the red stone, sending a blast of Hamon into the volcano, forcing an eruption. As the pair rose into the atmosphere, small rocks pelted Kars out of orbit, with Joseph making one final attack; claiming that he had planned it all along. Miraculously, Joseph survived falling from orbit due to the large chunk of rock he was on descending slowly with air resistance, though every bone in his body was broken for weeks. After being nursed back to health by Suzie Q and outfitted with a robotic hand by Stroheim, he crash his own funeral, shocking everyone. The next 47 years of Joseph's life would be fairly peaceful, marrying Suzie Q, becoming a wealthy world-wide real estate agent, and doting on his daughter, Holly Joestar, though he would never respect her husband, Sadao Kujo, for leaving her at home while traveling as a musician. Still, this would not spell the end for Joseph's adventures. Variant: Chariot WeaponryDuring his chariot race against Wamuu, multiple sets of weapons were laid out, granting Joseph the following actions: Multiattack.
