Funny nodded. "In other words, we passed through thirty- seven universes and looped back to our world." "Which means the universe I was born in is the world's final universe..." The Funniest paused, and looked at Cars. "And the one you come from is the first." Cars grinned back, but said nothing. "And Dio Brando has closed the loop (...)"
"I see," The Funniest said. "Then we can use that Stand to speed time up again and go to the universe where Dio is. If only we knew where...or when...that is." "We know that," Cars said. "My Standremembers when Dio left it. One universe after this one." Funny thought for a moment. "Then we can use the Stand above us to speed up time and catch up to Dio?" "Yes. But why would we do that? (...) Not like your history changes." "No, it changes to a spiral staircase..." "Only on the universal level," Cars said, dismissively. "I'm speaking on the world level. This world is a string of thirty-seven universes, which form a loop. If you look at each universe, then a similar but distinct history repeats itself thirty-seven times, and then the exact same thirty-seven histories happen again."
"So catching up to him by speeding up time is no good. You can't change history by following the axle of time. If you want to change history you can't chase him to the future, you gotta go back and fix things. That's just how time works." Cars laughed. "What's the difference between going forwards and backwards in time?" "...I dunno? But consciousness and space time are closely intertwined. The power of human consciousness...even Stands are not just like, weapons we pick up, but a power we make inside ourselves. And they can be so strong they control the flow of time in the entire universe! (...) So like, if everyone on an island with lots of people living on it like Great Britain thinks about turning back time or denies a fact of history Then it will have an effect, right?" I really had no basis for this, or I sort of did but I couldn't explain it logically and I'd never tried to tell anyone about anything like this.
"Hmph, but if we are to go back, how would we do it? We have a way to go forward, but have you thought of a way to get back? (...) So?" "I'm not sure, but I do have one thing worth trying. You've heard of the Bermuda Triangle?" (...) I realized, "Are those the two Singularities? Nishi Akatsuki and the Bermuda Triangle." Cars grinned. "Anyone who doesn't notice that will never be able to get to Heaven. (...) And look," Cars pointed to a photograph Narancia had sent to the pebble phone. "The modern Bermuda Triangle is right in front of where Great Britain is, outside Manhattan Island's armor." Liberty Island, where the Statue of Liberty stood. "But this Bermuda Triangle is also very close to the Trinity Church on Manhattan Island. And they just checked the facility underneath that church and found the body of the holy man was gone. They don't know when it vanished, but it might not have been somewhere in the last thirty-six histories of the universe; it might have been just a few moments ago. Thirty-six universes ago the Bermuda Triangle and Manhattan were on the same continent, but quite far apart. Now they've moved very close together, and only the Bermuda Triangle is exposed...doesn't that worry you at all? Can't you feel the vampire's unconscious glee as he waits for you to plunge into the trap he prepared?"
"How do we outmaneuver Dio?" Don't rush me, I thought, but I had already outmaneuvered Dio once, right? When I brought us back from the parallel world. "Um, OK...but...?" I said. "Spit it out." "I only know one Stand that goes back in time." "...and?" "Could Kira Yoshikage's Killer Queen's Bites the Dust help us out here?" That only took people back an our. But Cars grinned at me. "Explosions are hardly a threat to me." "Whaaaat? But we're trying to get back thirty-six universes ago!" "Time is also not a problem for me."
