"He's floating away," Polnareff said smugly, "He sure talked up his stand's powers, but it looks like he wasn't all that strong."

I ran over to the railing and began reaching out for the girl.

"Y/N, what's wrong? Can you lift the girl?" Mr. Joestar asked.

My hand was shaking, and I couldn't move. I saw tiny things appear on the girl's leg and Chem R's hand.

"Damn it.. it's like I'm being pulled in or something," I groaned.

I felt shots of pain flash through my arms. I held up my hand to see blood shooting out of it.

"What the fuck?!" I yelled.

"These are acorn barnacles!" Kakyoin said.

Listen man, I don't need a marine biology lesson right now, I need these off of me!

"They're all over the side of the boat and Chemical Romance's arm!" Mr. Joestar cried.

"He's still planning on fighting," Jotaro said.

"He must've attached them to my arm when I hit him earlier," I hissed, "They just keep multiplying! Chem R's strength is being drained.. this isn't good."

"He just disappeared! The captain is nowhere to be found," Mr. Joestar said, "Y/N, bring in your stand!"

"I.. I can't," I breathed out, "I'm sweating way more than I want to right now!"

I suddenly tipped over the edge, and the girl and I fell into the water.

"Y/N!" the guys yelled after me.

Kakyoin sent Hierophant out to try and grab us. I used Chem R to toss the girl up. Hierophant grabbed the girl, and I was submerged underwater. I kept sinking. It was a good thing I used to stay underwater for massive amounts of time. Don't ask why, I just liked to do that. I could see Dark Blue Moon appear beside me. Chem R got ready punch, but the oceanic stand blasted water pressure our way. I was sent flying into the coral below me. I groaned, and a few air bubbles blew out of my mouth. I looked up to see the captain infront of me.

"Welcome dear, welcome!" he greeted, "So you've finally made it to where Dark Blue Moon reigns supreme, the undersea realm."

He grinned and licked the blood off his hand, "It's a bad idea to underestimate me, darling. Even in the ocean, our stand can still communicate, so go ahead. You aren't as cocky as the Joestar boy, but just try and sound confident. Go ahead darling!"

I hummed, "Tell me what you want to be."

The captain looked confused, "Whatever do you mean?"

"Tell me what fish dish you wanna be. Fish cakes? Sashimi? Oh, I love sashimi! I'll make a meal out of your stand." (Kinky... I'm so sorry I'll stop now)

"You fool... You're trying to sound tough, darling, but inside, this is what you're thinking: 'How long can he stay underwater? I can probably last about 2 minutes, but can he last longer than me?"

He laughed.

"Let me answer you. My lung capacity is three times greater than a normal person's! I've trained for this. My best time is 6 minutes and 21 seconds! I'm sure you're getting dizzy just hearing that number."

6 minutes and 21 seconds? That's about 2 minutes over me. My lung capacity is only two times greater than a normal human. My best time is about 4 minutes and 37 seconds.

"And!"

Dark Blue Moon swam up some more and a burst of pressure came flowing out from the stand.
