"Green Day" and "Oasis"
With much difficulty, the gang manages to steal a car, Bucciarati exploiting his immunity to the mold and knocking Secco whose Oasis allows him to swim in the ground and protects him, out.
In the road to Rome, the gang realizes that Cioccolata's Green Day has spread its mold into Rome and they are forced to get out of the car. Seeing that Cioccolata is operating from an helicopter and Secco diving into the streets to fight them head on, Giorno and Mista immobilize the helicopter at the top of a tower, and go confront the mad doctor while Bucciarati takes care of Secco.
At the top of the tower, Cioccolata almost kills Mista. Giorno then manage to kill Cioccolata after a long clash. However Cioccolata heard that the gang is headed toward the Coliseum to get an unstoppable power, and has informed Secco upon his death.
In the streets, Bucciarati is physically bested by Secco. The fights transforms into a race toward the Coliseum, the third party being eventually revealed to be Jean Pierre Polnareff.
