Polpo appears in Vento Aureo as a prison inmate who serves as an unexpected gatekeeper to the mafia organization Passione. When Giorno expresses interest in joining the group, Polpo sets him a deceptively simple test: keep a lighter's flame burning for a full day and night. He hands over the lighter, making this bizarre ritual the first real hurdle in Giorno's criminal career. It's a brief but memorable introduction that establishes just how unconventional Passione's recruitment process can be.
