Nut King Call is the close-range Stand of Joshu Higashikata in JoJolion. By embedding nuts and bolts into targets, it can take bodies apart painlessly, fuse separate objects together, and even detach and control its own user's parts, all keyed to how the hardware is turned.
Nut King Call belongs to Joshu Higashikata and appears in JoJolion, standing about as tall as its user. Screws sit in the sides of its head and along its thin arms, its two shield-shaped eyes recall an insect, and a ruff of nuts and bolts rings its neck beneath a large V on its forehead. Ridged texturing runs over its face and arms, while a pattern of tessellated triangles covers its torso. Capable of a rapid flurry of strikes, it is best known for what its hardware can do to objects and bodies.
The Stand drives nuts and bolts into a target to form working artificial joints. Backing a nut off its bolt, which can be done almost instantly, causes the object to come apart at that seam, and when the subject is a person the dismantling of body parts is painless. These separations tend to reverse themselves once the target leaves the Stand's range, as one thug discovered when his hands reattached, if crookedly, after Joshu fled.
The power also works in reverse, fastening together whatever lies between a nut and its matching bolt. Joshu has bound the bodies of a bar owner and his men into a stumbling mass to escape, and later fixed a cursed bill from Milagro Man onto Zaihei Nigatake's bottle to hand off the curse. The Stand can even remove pieces of its own user, such as a tongue, and Joshu keeps command and sensation over the detached part.

Naruto vs Luffy with the twist nobody asked for: Luffy tickled Hinata on date night, and she kind of liked it. We break down the whole fight and commit to a winner....

There are no women on Namek. That isn't an oversight, it's the biology. Why we handed Piccolo the one thing his own species rules out, and why it had to be trap soul....
Nut King Call takes its name from Nat King Cole, the American jazz singer, following the JoJo's Bizarre Adventure tradition of naming Stands after musicians.
