With two Slim Shady dupllicates jumping at his thoat, Josui had no idea of what to do about this. What could I use to make my escape?! Thought the frightened Josui as he felt his shock of a compound fracture taking his body. As the computed several ideas, he had to reject them all and rely on basic instinct over everything else he could think of. Taking a deep breath, he thought about what Avicii told him about getting stronger and then cleared his mind of all things except for one thing:

Beserker is going down.

Just as the thought passed through his mind, he felt a rush of adrenaline that he never felt before in his entire life. Blasting off like a rocket ship at Cape Canaveral, Josui quickly began to run faster than ever, as if someone hooked him to the back of a speeding car. But what was far more impressive was that he ran at Beserker and dodged an attack from multiple Slim Shady duplicates who were all armed with knives. Just as one was about to slice Josui in half, he jumped into the air and had his Stand, Mercury Vision grab the duplicate by the back of its neck and throw him into another duplicate. This would have been enough as Josui was so close to winning this battle, only for Mercury Vision to put its foot through both of the duplicates' chests, destroying them both. Running at Beserker, Josui finally felt something different about himself that increased his power and gave him the confidence that made him feel far stronger than ever in his life. Beserker summoned his Stand with the original Slim Shady behind him, showing that Josui's opponent was now at his weakest. Punching Beserker (who was far more focused on Mercury Vision and what he could do to him), Josui watched him fall to the ground, feeling pity on his fallen foe. Taking in a deep breath and letting it out quietly, he said to him, "You... I think you need to find someone... in prison... to talk to about your problems. This gold obsession you have needs... some help." Josui began to turn and walk away, showing mercy to his opponent, but then he felt his whole entire body begin to go numb as he fell to the ground. Beserker chuckled and said, "Your body's going into shock, ain't it?! Good. That's all I need to hear for this!" Beserker pulled out a very large knife with a blade that reflected into Josui's eyes, showing him how afraid he was. In a final effort, he decided to do everything he could to save himself from this horrifying madman.

Biting his bottom lip, Josui summoned all the adrenaline in his body and his Mercury Vision with all the remaining strength in his body. The real Slim Shady appeared, charging at Josui and his Stand while it threw its large fist though the air. Mercury Vision seemed to be throwing his own punch as it turned around and punched a manhole cover, destroying it. Josui slipped into the hole and Beserker realized his insane plan was not to just fight, but to use the sewer to defeat him! Running away, Beserker suddenly felt a pair of hands grab his legs and he looked down to see Mercury Vision busted a hole through the groud, leading to Josui grabbing both of his legs and panting very hard. That's when Beserker heard the sound of metal creaking, as if some thing or someone was attempting to rip through a sheet of metal with a blender. He looked around and saw a row of cars that had nothing happening to them until turned his head and saw what was making the horrendous noise. A fire hydrant exploded, blasting both Beserker into that same row of cars that he was looking at earlier and suddenly felt a fist punch him in the chest as Mercury Vision appeared for a second then disappeared as Josui lost consciousness, falling into the sewer. But just before he hit the water, he began to float up and out of the sewer to the street where he felt his jacket wrap around his body again with his arm was now healed. He felt a relief of energy as he looked up and saw his father standing proud with his son in his arms and his Crazy Diamond floating beside him. "So, you're Beserker Killshot? Well, looks like you got a few injuries from my son, not to mention you stole his jacket. There's also the fact that the police found out the people you were kidnapping to have your friend turn to gold so you could sell, right? But even if the police don't believe in Stands, those kidnapped people will certainly do you hard time in prison. But first..." Beserker began to stand up and felt his body change back to normal, thinking that he was healed by the power of what god he believed in. He started laughing and then felt something pull from his teeth and saw pieces of gold fly out of his mouth and into Josuke's hand. "Did you really think that my son or I would give you an advantage in this fight? I'm only making this fair." Josui stood up and took three steps towards his opponent then summoned his Mercury Vision at full strength.
