AU where Sale manages to get Polpo's money and gets Capo status and he and Zucchero have to take care of Trish
Sale, Zucchero and Polpo's fortune and how far it could actually go (with pictures*)
We're starting off with how they actually managed to lay their hands on the money, since it would require them to somehow force Bucciarati to retrieve it for them. Let's just say that their initial plan worked, Bruno didn't solve the mystery of Soft Machine, and the BucciGang was released after the two morons were already far away with all the goods.
Despite Zucchero's whines, Sale meets up with Pericolo and handles the fortune to the organisation.
But, there is one thing that blocks their way to endless bitcherity and prosperity with Sale's newly obtained Capo status- that thing is the Boss's daughter, of which the pair must now take care.
Sale agrees to fulfill Polpo's mission, and Zucchero does not object.
They transport Trish to seemingly the safest place they can think of, and, parralel to Narancia in canon, Zucchero gets send on a shopping mission.
During that time, Risotto Nero, the leader of infamous assassin team, gains awareness of their actions and sends one of his men to deal with them.
Formaggio hides in Zucchero's car, just like he did in canon, and surprises him during his route back.
Zucchero under attack does exactly what you would expect this man to do. He wrecks the car.
Both men get out ready to fight, but then something unexpected happens:
It turns out Mr. Sugar and Mr. Cheese were actually pretty good buddies back in the day. They joined Passione about the same time, but got separated after Formaggio was assigned to join the Execution Squad.
Instead of engaging in a combat, the two goes back to Formaggio's place for a couple of beers, and, in a long (and, after a while, also drunk) brainstorm, they conclude that their best option is cooperation. After all, wouldn't it make sense that the best moment to get rid of the Boss is when he meets Sale to pick up his daughter?
The next day, Zucchero comes back to (incredibly worried and incredibly furious) Sale, and presents him the new plan.
Sale is not happy about it at all, but the perspective of having to fight a group of deadly, professional assassins makes him permit to it terms.
Upon negotiation (involving a quite amount of money), Risotto even agrees not to harm Trish nor Sale and Zucchero in the process.
One day after gaining the status, the new Capo, his sidekick and the girl get a granted protection of the entire La Squadra di Esecuzioni.
Time passes, and finally there comes the day of meeting with the Boss.
Carefully watched by Squadra members, Sale quickly realises Boss's intentions and even manages to survive his attack thanks to Kraft Work's power.
Boss manages to flee, sending members of his Elite Guard after them. This didn't work out well. Only Squalo and Tiziano manage to get out alive after Sale's intervention. Trish gains ability of Spice Girl.
Upon getting to Colloseum (is that how you spell it in English or??), Risotto Nero acquires the Arrow and obtains Requiem of his Stand Metallica.
Risotto Nero effectively kills Diavolo/Doppio and becomes the new Don of Passione.
With the money acquired through his status, Sale buys a house and helps Trish accomplish her dream of becoming a fashion designer.
Mario Zucchero spends his share on a boat and becomes a sailor.
And, last but not least, Giorno Giovanna decides to assasinate the Narcotics Crew directly, convincing Bruno Bucciarati to go with him-
They both end up addicted to crack after being exposed to Nightbird Flying.
