Sage: Hehe, apple pie, huh? Okay. I'll bake plenty and have them ready for you.

Nico: Thanks.

Bianchi: ... Jude, I have a favor to ask.

Jude: Just say the word, Bianchi. If it's your wish, I'll grant not just three, but however many you desire, no matter what it is.

However, I won't agree to any request that involves leaving your side.

Bianchi: ... I know.

This situation is right up your alley, isn't it? Take good care of our sweet Nico.

Jude: What about the Chocolate Mint Fair, though? Will that be alright?

Bianchi: We'll handle that ourselves. So you focus on doing everything you can on your end.
I'm counting on you, Jude.

Jude: That's quite a powerful request.

Leave it to me, Bianchi! I'll stop this mafia conflict even if I have to take down every last one of them!

Bianchi: Don't go overboard.

Nico: ? It's Theo.

Yes?

Theo: 「Aah~ Are you done with your talk, big bro? I have an urgent matter to discuss.」

Nico: ... You're watching us on the security cameras, aren't you?

Theo: 「No, I just checked your location 'cause it was urgent.」

Nico: What is it? Did you find the hideout?

Theo: 「Almost! I'm using the info I got from your apprentice and checking surveillance cameras and stuff to track them down.
And then I spotted someone who looks like a Mozzarella Family member. I listened in on their conversation and heard something crazy...」

Nico: What?

Theo: 「They say tomorrow they're launching a full assault on the Giorno Family, turning it into a Bloody Valentine...」

—Valentine's Day.

Executive: Bloody Valentine, you say? Guess we've got ourselves a full‑scale war!

Jude: Right, the only way forward is a full-scale war.

Theo: I found out the exact location of their hideout. We can storm it anytime. What's the plan?

Advisor: Why wait? We should strike first. We can catch them off guard.

Jude: Yeah, attacking is best. Waiting is boring anyway.

Executive: I've let our guys know to gear up. We can move whenever.

Jude: Then, make sure to tell them to go all out. Anyone who holds back won't be forgiven.

Executive: ... You sure know your stuff.

Advisor: As expected of the boss' right‑hand man... Excuse me, I mean, fall guy. You seem well‑versed in mafia tactics.

Jude: I don't know anything about mafia tactics. I'm just coming up with ways I can enjoy myself.

Theo: ... How is someone like this a hero?

Nico: Everyone, shut up.

Executive & Advisor: ... !

Jude: Oi, Nico, you can't just tell us to shut up in the middle of a strategy meeting.

Nico: I'll decide what we do. So be quiet… Especially you, Jude.

Jude: Me?

Theo: Duh? You're the craziest of them all.

Jude: I see. I thought I was helping, like Bianchi asked...

Well, whatever. Just tell me what you want to do, then.

Nico: Jude and I will settle things with the Mozzarella family. The rest of you do nothing.

Executive: Boss, they're coming to attack us. What do you mean, 'do nothing'?

Advisor: No one's going to sit still and get shot.

Nico: I'll talk to them before it comes to that. Jude, you're coming with me.

Jude: Just the two of us? Haha, that's way more fun.

Nico: I'd rather avoid whatever you consider fun...

We're heading out. Theo, take care of the rest.

Theo: Okaaay~ Good luck, big bro~

Executive: O- Oi. The boss really went to their hideout with just that Jude guy?

Advisor: Even if it's the boss' decision, I doubt the two of them will make a difference...

Theo: Oi, this is big bro's decision. Going against it is betrayal, got it?

???: ーOh? Betrayal, huh.

Theo: ...?

???: Mind repeating what you mean by betrayal?

Theo: Really... are you kidding me...

To Chapter 7 | Chapter 9

ーThe day before Valentine's Day.

Sage: Wow, you've got almost everything ready!

Bianchi: Right? I threw it together pretty fast, but it turned out pretty cute.

Sage: Yeah, the mint green looks really nice.

Jude: You said the costumes are in this color too, right?

Bianchi: Yes, I've got four costumes lined up, so look forward to tomorrow.

Jude: Ahh, I can't wait to put on Bianchi's costume.

Sage: Nico, let's do our best tomorrow~

Nico: .......

Sage: Nico?

Nico: Ah, sorry. I spaced out.

Sage: Are you okay? You seem tired lately.

Nico: ... Really? I feel the same as always.

Sage: No, I'm pretty sure you're tired. You barely ate any omelets yesterday...

If something is bothering you, don't hold back.

Nico: ... I know.

Jude: ? Nico, you haven't told Sage about that thing?

Nico: ... Something like that.

Sage: 'That thing'? Jude-kun...?

Jude: If you don't know, ask him directly. I don't know if I'm allowed to talk about it.

Nico: ... It's fine. I figured I should tell him anyway.

Sage: Um...

Nico: My old man was shot and killed. And after a bunch of stuff happened, I ended up leading the Giorno family.

Sage: What!?

Jude: And I've been appointed as a fall guy.

Bianchi: ... Do you even understand what that means?

Jude: No, not really. What does a fall guy do, Bianchi?

Bianchi: ... You're better off not knowing. Though it might be the kind of job you'd like.

Sage: Nico, could you tell me a bit more about it? Only what you can share, of course...

Nico: The thing is—

Sage: I see... so that's what happened...

Nico: Sorry for keeping quiet. I didn't want you worrying about weird things.

Sage: No, it's okay... I don't really understand the underworld anyway.

Bianchi: But if the mafia goes into an all-out war, we won't be able to stay uninvolved.

Sage: Yeah, civilians could get dragged into it.

Nico: I'll make sure that never happens.

Sage: ... Hey, is there anything I can do? I'll help with anything.

Nico: ... I want you to wait, Sage.

Sage: Just wait?

Nico: Yeah. With Licht...

Oh, and I want to eat your apple pie.

Sage: Hehe, apple pie, huh? Okay. I'll bake plenty and have them ready for you.

Nico: Thanks.

To Chapter 6 | Chapter 8

Nico: As for you guys...

Advisor & Executive: ......

Nico: You'll get executive treatment. I need you to help keep the family together.

Advisor: Thank you, boss.

Executive: ... Understood, young master Nico.

No, boss! I'm really glad you came back!

Nico: ... Is that right.

Jude: They wrapped that up pretty swiftly. A bit anticlimactic.

Theo: Big bro's the eldest son. He's been groomed as the heir way more than me.

Jude: Groomed? You can fight too?

Theo: I'm not a fighter, alright? I mean, come on, using violence to solve problems nowadays is just ridiculous.

Jude: I see. Then I have no interest in you.

Theo: W- What's with the attitude... Well, I'm glad you're not interested in me anyway.

Nico: Alright, I'm going to go negotiate with the Mozzarella Family. Can you tell me where their hideout is?

Advisor: Their hideout is in Red South—

Theo: Ah~ I looked into that earlier. Seems they already moved.

Nico: Where to?

Theo: That's what I can't figure out. I checked every suspicious registration record and every chat that looked like they were discussing something shady, but nothing.

I think they're probably laying low and avoiding the internet because they're wary of me.
When we were attacked, my phone was the first thing they destroyed.

Nico: I see. So they're hiding the old‑fashioned way now.

Theo: Exactly. Well, even then, you can't erase all traces. Give me about a month and I can track them down.

Nico: We don't have all that time.

Theo: I don't want to do it either, honestly.

Nico: ... Guess I'll have to rely on my apprentice.

Theo: ... Apprentice? You mean that guy, Billy?

Nico: Yeah. He's good at digging things up without relying on the internet.

Theo: Why not just use our underlings instead?

Nico: If they get caught, it'll inevitably lead to a clash. Billy can handle it quietly.

Jude: Billy...

Nico: The rookie with the goggles who also works as an informant.

Jude: Ah, that guy. Yeah, he was good at gathering intel.

Theo: Well, if big bro, the boss, says so, I don't care either way.

Jude: So, once we find the hideout, what then?

Nico: Isn't it obvious?

We storm in and sort things out.

Nico: Phew... we're here.

Jude: Your brother didn't come with us, huh.

Nico: That might have looked like a dump, but it's home to him.

And he said he's way too sleepy to move around.

Are you sure you don't want me to send you home?

Jude: If we stopped by my place, I'd have to feed you before sending you off.

Nico: ... You know me well.

Jude: We've sparred countless times. You pick things up when you fight someone long enough.

Nico: You can't remember people's faces, but you notice stuff like that.

Jude: ... Faces, huh.

Nico: What? Why are you staring at me?

Jude: No, I just thought you had an interesting look today. I've known you for quite a while, but I've never seen that expression on you before.

Nico: ... What expression?

Jude: Look in the mirror. You look like a cold‑blooded commander standing on a battlefield.

Nico: ......

Jude: Well, today was pretty fun. Let me know when you find the enemy hideout.

Nico: ... Got it.

Nico: ......

To Chapter 5 | Chapter 7

Advisor: Master Theo and… Master Nico?

Theo: Ah~ I'm just kind of tagging along, so don't mind me.

Advisor: A boy under house arrest and a traitor who abandoned his family... what business do you have here?

Nico: We're here to stop the retaliation.

Executive: Hah! That's a funny joke. This is a family matter. You left, you have no authority in this!

Nico: If you retaliate, it'll turn into a full‑scale conflict. Civilians will get dragged in.

As a hero, I can't ignore that.

Executive: What...!?

Advisor: You may be a hero, but we are mafia. Honor is everything to us.

Regardless of the situation, our boss was shot. We can't just sit quietly.

Nico: Still the same, obsessed with rules and keeping up appearances.

Advisor: That's why you left, isn't it?

Nico: ... Something like that.

Executive: Come to think of it, you left the family without permission too, didn't you? And now you come crawling back... don't complain about what happens next.

Hey! Give these guys a taste of our bullets!

Mafiosi: Yes, sir!

Theo: Ah~ I'll just sit this one out.

Nico: Jude, go ahead.

Jude: It's finally my turn, huh.

Mafioso A: Another hero?

Mafioso B: Hmph, I'll turn you into a beehive!

Jude: Haaaah—!

Mafioso A: Guh...!

Nico: Huff!

Mafioso B: Gah—!

Jude: Oh come on, is that all? Entertain me a little more!

Executive: Wh‑ What's with this guy!?

Jude: Hey, you, the pompous guy. Arm every grunt you've got and send them into this room. Then maybe I'll have some real fun.

Executive: ...!

Nico: What's your move? If you want more injuries, go ahead.

Executive: Tch...

Advisor: ... Very well. We'll take young master Nico's opinion into consideration.

Executive: Oi!

Advisor: But if you're going to interfere with family decisions, you'll need an appropriate position to speak from.

Nico: Position?

Advisor: I mean you can no longer remain a civilian.

Nico: That was never my intention to begin with.

Advisor: Remember what you just said...
So, I have a suggestion about the family's future.

With the boss gone, young master Theo was the most likely successor, but he's under house arrest and, frankly, he's partly responsible for this situation.

Theo: I won't deny that.

Advisor: Therefore, I nominate Nico Giorno as the new boss of the Giorno Family.

Executive: WH‑ WHAT!?

Nico: ... Me?

Theo: Why not? Go for it, big bro.

Nico: No, I doubt the rest will agree? I've beaten up half the grunts here.

Advisor: The only one who can lead this family now is someone with the boss bloodline and the strength to defeat the Mozzarella Family.

And that person can only be you, young master Nico.

Nico: ... If Dad were alive, he'd never allow this.

Advisor: The boss has passed away.

Nico: ... Right.

Theo: ... Big bro, what are you going to do? With no boss, even if you say 'don't retaliate,' no one will listen.

Nico: ... Fine.

Theo: Eh? So that means—

Nico: From now on, you'll obey my orders without question.

Theo: Big bro ♪

Nico: First, Jude will be my right‑hand man. And I'm lifting Theo's house arrest and appointing him as my advisor.

Theo: Advisor, huh. Reasonable choice.

Jude: Oi, I'm not planning on being anyone's right‑hand man except Bianchi's.

Nico: ... Then what?

Jude: Find me a position that brings some thrill.

Nico: You can be a fall guy.

Jude: What does that mean?

Nico: ... Once you go, you're gone for good.

Jude: Heh? That sounds pretty interesting. I like it.

Theo: (Ahh, whatever... It basically means he's just a disposable hitman...)
