Narancia Ghirga is an alternate take on the original Passione gunman, pulled from the 37th universe of the light novel JORGE JOESTAR. Loyal to the gang, he is teamed with Joji Joestar to hunt down the Boss, and he fights with a Stand his mainline self never carried.
This incarnation keeps the same fluffed hair and familiar clothes worn by the mainline gunman, so a casual glance would not tell the two apart. A few touches set him apart, including the dark bands he wears around his wrists. For a weapon he carries a blade whose handle bears the crest of Passione.
Rather than the original's Aerosmith, this version commands a Stand named U-Boat, a living colony vessel. The ship travels only by moving through muscle and tissue inside a person, or by burrowing into another Stand, yet it comes armed with mounted guns and heavy artillery that reach across long distances. It can also glide freely through open air. Because U-Boat is able to pass through Narancia himself, he can shelter it within his own body and let its hull act as a shield. During the story its blueprint is lifted and duplicated by Kars, who uses a DISC to forge an upgraded model of his own before handing the original craft over to Joji.

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....
He serves under the wing of Passione and takes his orders from the version of Giorno Giovanna who leads the gang in this world. When Joji Joestar is contracted to locate the syndicate's hidden Boss, Giorno pairs the two together, making Narancia the partner who accompanies Joji on that search.
