Yu-Gi-Oh!: The journey of the Duel King from scratch!

Because he was met by Li Youfeng and accepted as his disciple when he was eight years old, Youcheng Judai has lived a happy life over the years. However, this does not mean that he can always live a carefree life!

A wise man once said, "Where there are people, there will be disputes. Once you are involved in this vortex, you will never be able to get rid of it!"

This is probably what human nature is all about. The ugly dark side will always exist in any world!

As he grew older, Yuki Judai gradually began to understand that if he wanted to become a duelist who could stand on his own, he must have the strength and awareness to solve problems!

"Humph, Yujo Judai, you think you are..."

Looking at Yuki Judai with contempt, just when Mackenzie was about to talk some trash, he suddenly felt a sense of incongruity, especially Yuki Judai's serious look, which made the Pathetic Demon, a dark monster, feel a little bit of fear.

"Why does this human boy give me the illusion that I'm being stared at by a ferocious beast? How could a mere human give me such a strong sense of oppression?!"

“Hey, didn’t you hear what I just said?” Seeing Mackenzie standing there in a daze, Yuujou urged impatiently, “That card is Manjome’s favorite card, so hand it over quickly!”

"Tsk~ Is this an illusion?"

Because Yuki Judai spoke, the invisible pressure dissipated and a layer of cold sweat appeared on his forehead. After thinking for a few seconds, Mackenzie smiled coldly.

"Do you want this card? Sure, but this card is my trophy. If you want it, you need to exchange it with the card!"

"Exchange with cards?" Yugi Judai frowned slightly. He didn't want to use his favorite cards as bargaining chips. "You bastard, you actually defiled the most precious cards of the duelists. Do you still deserve to be called a duelist if you do this?"

"Haha, duelist? Human, make no mistake, how can lowly creatures like you humans be compared to me?"

Gnashing his teeth at Mackenzie's stubborn attitude, Yuki Judai raised his finger and pointed at him, "In that case, I want to duel with you here. If you lose, you must return the card to Manjome!"

"Duel with me? Stop kidding!" Although he didn't understand where the pressure he just felt came from, for Mackenzie now, as he was about to be resurrected, he chose to play it safe for the time being.

Pretending to tear up the card in his hand, Mackenzie sneered playfully, "Yuki Juudai, I am only informing you! You should know that your friend's most precious card is in my hand now, so whether you are willing or not has nothing to do with me at all! You have to understand one thing, that is, you are not worthy of dueling with me right now. Since you don't agree to my conditions, then there is no need for this card to continue to exist!"

"Wait!" Knowing very well how much Manjome cherished the Dragon of Light and Darkness, Yuujo Judai raised his hand to stop Mackenzie, "I agree to your terms. Tell me, what card do you want to exchange from me?"

"Oh well!"

Because he was too excited and couldn't help laughing, Mackenzie said, "I want the Winged Kuroneko in your deck!"

"Winged Kuritama?! Damn it, this is the card my master gave me!"

Yuki Judai gnashed his teeth and dug out the Winged Kuriko Ball from his deck, his heart filled with reluctance and pain. He took a deep look at the scarred Manjomuzu, a hint of helplessness flashed in his eyes, but he eventually slowly handed the card over.

"Judai, I..." Seeing Yuki Judai's painful expression, Manjo Muzun's face was suddenly filled with guilt. He knew very well that this winged chestnut ball was of great significance to Yuki Judai, but the current situation was related to whether the Dragon of Light and Darkness would be torn apart. After all, he did not have the courage to speak out to stop Yuki Judai from handing over the card.

"Winged Kurikoku, I finally got it!" Mackenzie took the card from Yuki Judai and showed a proud smile on his face. All the conditions have been met. Now he can't wait to perform his own resurrection ceremony to let the Winged Kurikoku unleash its true power.

"Humph, this Dragon of Light and Darkness is of no use to me now, I'm giving it back to you!"

With a look of disdain, Mackenzie raised his hand and threw the Dragon of Light and Darkness to Wanzhangmuzhun. Then he turned his gaze to Yuki Judai, his eyes flashing with provocation and ridicule: "Boy, I guess you must be reluctant to hand over this card, right? However, if you really want to take your card back, just come to the storage warehouse next to the harbor to find me! Hahaha..."

Accompanied by a shrill laugh, Mackenzie gradually turned into a ball of black smoke and slowly dissipated on the spot.

"You bastard, good, you have completely pissed me off!!!"

Having lived with Li Youfeng for eight years, for the current Judai Youcheng, when has he ever suffered such injustice, except from his master and Yugi Muto?

(Note: Although Judai also lost to Kaiba Seto, in terms of duel style, Kaiba Seto gives people a sense of dignity. As everyone says, losing to a fierce attacker and losing to a ghost are two completely different feelings.)

"Judai, I'm sorry..." He knew very well how much sacrifice Yuki Judai had made, and Manjō Mizutsu's heart was filled with guilt at this moment.

"Huh? What nonsense are you talking about? Manjome, the word sorry doesn't sound right coming from your mouth!" Seeing Manjome Jun's guilty expression, Yuki Judai smiled with a relaxed look.

"You?! Tsk! Forget it! But I never want to owe favors to others. I will definitely help you get your Winged Chestnut Ball back!" He struggled to get up from the ground, but unfortunately, Manjomu Jun, who was defeated in the Dark Game, had already lost the physical strength to support his actions.

"Idiot, you are fighting with yourself!" Yujo Judai sighed with a smile, then squatted down and carefully helped Manjomu Jun who was lying on the ground up. "How is it? Can you still walk?"

At this moment, Wanzhang Muzhun's face was as pale as paper, without any blood, obviously due to the severe pain!

However, despite his own serious injuries, Wanzhangmuzhun still stubbornly snorted coldly: "Jiudai, you are too much of an understatement when you say this. This little injury is nothing to me, Wanzhangmu Lightning!"

Hearing this, Yuujo Judai smiled helplessly and responded, "Yes! Yes! You are the best, okay? Come on, I'll take you to the infirmary."

“Ouch! It hurts!” As if Yuki Judai had accidentally touched the injured part of his body, Wanzhangmuzhun immediately screamed like a pig being slaughtered, “You better be careful! Do you really think it’s okay just because I said it’s okay? Damn, my ribs might have been broken just now!”

"Blame me~!"

"Damn you! It's my bad luck to know you!"

They were still insulting each other as they walked. Just as Yuki Judai was carefully supporting Manjo Mizutsu and heading to the infirmary, Mackenzie also arrived at the warehouse at the Duel Academy port.

He had already planned to unlock the seal again at the Duel Academy, so when he set out from the Duel Academy in Country M, Mackenzie had already secretly sent the stone tablet that sealed him here.

At this moment, Mackenzie stood in the warehouse with a hint of excitement and madness in his eyes. A dark atmosphere began to spread in the warehouse, and an invisible force gradually gathered into a powerful energy wave.

As the darkness spread, the atmosphere in the warehouse became more and more depressing, making people feel uneasy. In the center of this dark atmosphere, a square stone slab unearthed from the ancient Egyptian Empire was slowly erected under Mackenzie's control.

This stone slab exudes an ancient and mysterious light, and seems to contain endless power. The surface of the stone slab is engraved with complex runes and patterns. These runes flicker with faint light, echoing with the dark aura, forming a strange and spectacular scene.

"Haha, it's been three thousand years. I have been sealed by those abominable priests for three thousand years. Today, I can finally be resurrected!"

In the world view of Yu-Gi-Oh, Pegasus originally believed that Duel Monsters should have originated from the ancient Egyptian Empire. Unfortunately, this inference was completely overturned because of the Atlantis civilization discovered by Professor Arthur on the west coast of Country M.

The appearance of Dazhi proves that the history of Duel Monsters actually dates back to long before the Ancient Egyptian Empire. However, due to historical research and other issues, the information related to Duel Monsters unearthed from the Ancient Egyptian Empire is the most comprehensive.

The emergence of seven thousand-year artifacts made the ancient Egyptian Empire prosperous. These high priests used the thousand-year artifacts to control powerful duel elves to fight for them. Unfortunately, not all duel elves were willing to be enslaved by humans. Because of the appearance of the thousand-year artifacts, some monsters born in darkness were awakened.

Because they were unable to completely destroy these powerful monsters, the high priests of ancient Egypt could only use the power of the thousand-year-old artifact to seal these monsters called "Ka" in stone slabs.

In the original work of Yu-Gi-Oh, because the king returned to the underworld and took away all the thousand-year-old artifacts, this gave the powerful monsters that were originally sealed in the stone slabs a chance to escape!

What we have to say here is that there is definitely a reason why the ancient Egyptian Empire rose and fell, and this setting where the predecessors dug holes and let the later generations fill them is really quite ridiculous!

"Strange, why does this winged chestnut ball give me the feeling that it is a dead thing? Aren't there spirits living in the white feathers? Forget it, this card can't be faked anyway, as long as it is enough for me to revive, it will be fine!"

Looking at the Winged Kuriko Ball in his hand, an indescribable sense of disharmony surged into Mackenzie's heart. However, after thinking that it was impossible for the Winged Kuriko Ball to have a copy card, he quickly felt relieved.

Mackenzie took out all the planetary series cards from the deck of the duel disk, and placed them into the stone slab along with the Winged Chestnut Ball.

The cards of the planet series formed a huge cross shape around the winged chestnut ball. As the stone slab broke, a dark and beating heart suddenly appeared in the stone slab.

"Haha, as expected, this white feather is a genuine card. Come on, wake up from your slumber!"

The breath of darkness began to burst out from the stone slab, and even the sky of the Duel Academy was covered with dark clouds. Amidst the lightning and thunder, the stone slab that sealed the Demon of Sorrow shattered, and a lobster-like monster broke free from the stone slab!

The original form of crayfish!

At the same moment when the Demon of Sorrow escaped, Atum, who was far away in Country M, suddenly had a strange premonition. When he looked at the distant sky through the window, Winged Kurikoku appeared beside him.

“Kuri~Kuri~!” (Lord Pharaoh, I feel like a powerful monster seems to have escaped from the stone slab!)

"What did you say?" Atum's face instantly turned ugly because of what Winged Kuritama said.

Having also noticed the noisy Tsubasa, Yugi Muto, who was working at his computer desk, turned his attention to the former, "Hmm? What happened to the other me? Why is Tsubasa so nervous?"

"A monster has appeared!" With an unspeakable feeling on his face, Atum gritted his teeth and said, "This monster escaped from the stone slab. If my feeling is correct, this monster should be a relic that was sealed in the temple three thousand years ago. Unfortunately, I can no longer pick up the duel disk, so if I want to seal this monster again, I can only ask you, aibo, to help me!"

"Hey, what am I doing?"

Putting down the work in his hands, Yugi Muto strode to Atum and gently took his hand. He consoled him kindly: "My other self, I have decided since the moment you came back that your business is my business. There is no need to make such a clear distinction between you and me!"

"But I always feel like I'm causing you trouble."

"How can you say that? Didn't I cause you trouble all those years ago?"

"aibo!"

"another me!"

"Curry~!"

(Translation: Mr. Pharaoh, Mr. Yugi, don't worry. I can feel that my clone card has appeared in this world, and the place where the monster appeared is the Duel Academy in Sakura Country!)

"aibo!!!"

"another me!!!"

"Kuriri!!!"

(Translation: Hey, Mr. Pharaoh, Mr. Game, are you two listening to me? Oh~shit! I've had enough! I want to find a chance to leave this damn place!)

Ignoring the crazy screams of Tsubasa Kuritama, Yugi Muto and Atemu forgot about their work and business and just looked at each other lovingly!

Silence is better than words at this time, although this is really Yu☆Ji☆King!
