Secrecy isn't an issue; at least, not with you. And the structure and operations of the Italian Mafia are ... well-documented, despite our best efforts to silence such well-meaning journalism. [ giorno leans forward, something a bit sharp and vicious entering his normally stoic facade as he talks about his own field. what is unsaid in the proceedings: you pose no threat to us. it is an assurance for rohan as it is for giorno, and it carries the weight of his trust as much as it carries a threat. that it has gone unsaid is his gift to him. ]
My problem is exposing you to threats that could potentially disrupt your quiet life here in Morioh. [ a concerned frown. he doesn't really know how rohan will take to his efforts protecting him this way; he is treating him with kid gloves and a glass case as he puts him on a high shelf, in his own way. ] I am not without my enemies, and sometimes they dare to move out of my web. This town has its own scars. I am aware of the Stand user with the ability to turn anything his Stand touches into a bomb - he is from this town, Rohan. You would not enjoy fifty or a hundred of him after yourself. Or the .... other Joestar in this town.
[ giorno is fairly sure he is giving a certain marine biologist some paranoic headaches by being here, after all, but he isn't coming here for business. only kishibe rohan would want him to come to morioh on business for the purpose of his art. it is a bit endearing, if a little alarming. ]
If you were nobody, this wouldn't be such a problem. [ he omits the part where even someone like koichi, who had barely known him before he was a boss, was also attacked, but then again rohan can probably wheedle those details out of him if he hasn't already. ] But you are Kishibe Rohan, and that is where the problem lies. [ a rather rueful smile. ] I can provide you a detailed account, if that's all you need, and I'm sure the others would also love to have you as a guest, but anything more than that .... you'll have to accept my rejection.
