Is This the Poker World? Ada Thief!

While speaking, Rafilo looked away from Baron and met Hayato's gaze, and Hayato could feel a very strong sense of disapproval from Rafiru's gaze.

Baron recalled it for a while, and found that it was really as Rafilo said, "Hayato Kobayashi" as a duelist's style is indeed a "profit maximization"ist who sacrifices his own monsters.

"According to you?"

"What Rafelu means is that the higher a person stands, the more he is unwilling to go down. After all, he has to give up a lot of things in order to climb to the position of Duel King." Yameruda After being touched by Lafeilu, he seemed to have figured something out, with a clear expression, "Although we didn't see it directly, when we entered the palace, didn't we also hear the voice of the dueling monster?"

"Presumably Hayato Kobayashi fell into a disadvantage in the duel with Darzu-sama, that's why this guy needs strength in order to find a chance to defeat Darzu-sama as he said."

Rafilu also nodded, agreeing that Ameruda's analysis was consistent with his thoughts.

"Ah, that's right, so I said from the beginning, I need strength, more throwing tiles." Hayato fumbled for the "Olihagang Fragment" on his wrist and said, "Complete suppression, without any Beyond the possible back, this is the aesthetics of the 'chased' I advocate, and strength is a necessary existence."

Yameruda narrowed his eyes when he heard the words, and asked: "Even for this power, you may lose the friends who stood behind you before joining Doma's organization? You must know that for Master Dazi's plan, we will accept The purpose of coming down is to collect the souls of a large number of powerful duelists, and your friends are all indispensable and excellent resources."

"Friends? Hehe, those who stand behind the king are destined to be rejected. Friends are in the way. My goal is to become the strongest in the world."

Listening to Hayato plagiarizing the speech of a car-turning king decades later, Rafiru looked at the expression on Hayato's face, and seemed to confirm that Hayato should not have lied, he sighed and said: "Is that really the case? Like that?" If so, even if you and I stand on the same ground now, I still cannot agree with you, Hayato Kobayashi."

"However, for the sake of the organization, I will obey Darzi-sama's instruction and accept your joining."

Lafeilu has already made a statement. As one of the three Musketeers of Doma, he accepted Hayato's reason for joining Doma. Barong, who was almost the leader of the three of them, made a statement. In fact, He didn't care too much about Hayato, so he naturally nodded at Hayato, expressing that he also accepted Hayato.

On the contrary, Ameruda, even if he understands the reason why Hayato joined Doma, because he still thinks about the fact that Hayato defeated himself in a duel, he still resists Hayato's joining.

Baron also saw his dissatisfaction, and persuaded him as if joking: "Take it easy, Ameruda, at least Hayato has already accepted the 'Olihagang Fragment'."

He looked at the gemstone on Hayato's wrist, and said lightly, "Even if you don't use it, that gemstone will continue to discover the darkness in the owner's heart, and even give birth to a new monster from it."

"It just so happens that we came out to defeat powerful duelists and seal their souls. Should our Mr. 'in charge' also try to move around, and see if we can unearth the dark monster inside?"

What Baron said was not groundless. "Oliha Gang Fragment" really has the function of "discovering the darkness in the duelist's heart and giving birth to new monsters". Meluda has already bred her own darkness.

Hayato remained calm on the surface, and even showed an expectant expression: "Hmph, no problem at all, I am also looking forward to what kind of monsters I can summon from my heart in pursuit of power."

But in Hayato's heart, he was a little thankful for a certain deck he had obtained before.

'The appearance of these cards, not to mention the darkness in my heart, even if I kick Dazi now and claim to be the reincarnation of Oliha Gang, it's okay, right? '

-----

In a dim tavern, a man with a star-spangled turban wrapped around his head raised his neck and stuffed a large glass of wine into his mouth. The pungent smell of cheap and inferior wine made the man sober, but his nerves were anesthetized by alcohol. , like a half-dream and half-awake.

Slightly nodding his head, the man cast his eyes from the gap in the sunglasses to the TV screen hanging on the bar counter of the bar, and the finals of the recent duel monster professional competition were being shown on the screen.Due to the increasing popularity and popularity of dueling monster entertainment, even the football that most stimulates alcoholic wallets to empty their already thin wallets has been replaced by dueling monsters by bar owners.

On the screen, a blond woman commanded her [Harpies] to fight with a flying dragon, and was about to attack a huge monster on the opposite field, but the power of the birds was in the past. In front of the overlord of the planet, it is still not enough to look at. The birds and beasts and the flying dragons were forced back by the aura of the tall and terrifying beasts, and they were covered back to the defensive display.

The man recognizes the duelists on both sides of the battle. They use the [Amazon] card group and the [Harpy] card group, Peacock Dance who is good at backcourt destruction tactics, and specializes in dinosaur monsters. The duel style is rare The straight-forward "dinosaur" Ryuzaki.

"Heh, Peacock Dance and Ryuzaki, even a brat of this level can be arrogant in the circle of professional duelists?"

Seeing Ryuzaki's attack, but being blocked by Peacock Dance's [Itakua's Storm], the man commented disdainfully, and he almost said "I can do it myself", and raised his glass subconsciously He brought it to his mouth, only to find that the wine glass had been emptied by himself just now.

This makes the man a little less interested.Instead of staying in front of the bar, he took out a few green bills tied with rubber bands from his pocket and threw them on the wine table, without waiting for the bartender to return the change, he left the bar.

In this remote tavern, there are many poor people who are shy and ask the bar to pour more wine, but very few are willing to give a tip, not to mention that the man throws out a Franklin, the bartender will naturally not refuse For this extra money, he rarely showed a sincere smile and sent the man away from the bar.

Stepping on the moonlight in the alley, the man who was obviously not drunk staggered forward and moved forward silently.After taking two steps, he slammed his fist hard on the concrete walls on both sides of the alley. The rough walls rubbed against the skin of the man's hand, and blood flowed out.

"Asshole, asshole, asshole!"

As if he was cursing someone, or complaining about himself, the man slammed down on the wall until the pain in his palm overwhelmed the anesthesia of alcohol. He tore off the scarf and wrapped it casually around his trembling left hand, panting heavily. .

Not caring at all that there was no one cleaning this secluded alley so that the garbage on the ground was scattered, the man sat down against the wall and took out a deck of cards from his pocket with his right hand that hadn't hit the wall just now.The card at the front of the deck is a [Revolver Dragon].

The man who looks down on Peacock Dance and Ryuzaki, isn't it because he won the title of "thief" by winning the bounties of various competitions, entered the top eight in the Duel Kingdom but was defeated by Hayato, and was almost killed by Bekas? Throwing off the island, and then being manipulated by Malik as Keith who attacked the traveling exhibition hall of Egyptian cultural relics, but was defeated by Hayato again!

Clutching his own deck with his fingers, Keith muttered angrily with resentment on his bearded face.

Maybe at other times, after swearing to himself, Keith would get up again after venting his anger, go back to his house and sleep, and come to the tavern the next day to buy drinks to relieve his worries.

But perhaps driven by fate, a person that Keith could never forget appeared in front of him.

Thank you for the reward of 500 points from the book friend "Jia Jianqing", thank you

As a result, I slept all day yesterday and couldn't code at all, but I feel much better today.

Chapter 33 Death will not come as long as you are fully prepared

The original intention of the establishment of the Doma organization was to help Dazi gather enough power to revive the "Olihagang God" who was wounded and dormant thousands of years ago, so as to cleanse the earth again.

But for "God Aurihagang", the power he needs is not heat energy, electric energy or other such ordinary energy sources, but the darkness in people's hearts, after all, he was born from it.

But even if there are still wars in the world today, the darkness of the heart collected can only be regarded as a drop in the bucket for the need to awaken the "Olihagang God".However, if it is supplemented by the tough souls of the duelists, it is another matter.

It has nothing to do with the personal character of the duelists. Because of their strong will, the stronger the duelists, the more they can actually unearth a considerable amount of dark power. With the souls of the duelists, Dazi can use these sealed souls as sacrifices to speed up the recovery of "God Olihagang".

Although Hayato, who won the Duel King, and Yugi, Kaiba, and Jouchi, who have won the duel city's top four, are all from Toshino City, but if you want to say where you can get the most high-quality duelist souls, you have to be "Father of Dueling Monsters" Bekas was the first to promote dueling monsters, and the United States has the most mature system of professional duelists and thus the largest number of outstanding duelists.

Hayato knew that the destination of this trip was the United States, but he was a little surprised that the first target he found was his "acquaintance".

"Although the organization is ready to fight against the whole world, it is still necessary for us to keep a low profile as long as it does not affect efficiency. Otherwise, the duelists who engaged in illegal duels in the underground dueling arena are more suitable as our targets."

Rafilo explained to Hayato in this way, "In terms of strength, some of them are actually not much inferior to professional duelists, and even if they disappear, they won't attract much attention. The only trouble is Most of the duelists in the underground dueling field will not participate in public to avoid legal liability, and it is a little difficult to find a target."

"However, because the real master behind the 'black boxing' project of the underground duel field is actually our Doma, so even this only trouble does not exist. The former national champion 'Rogue' Keith is our goal."

"The 'thief' Keith, who once stood at a considerable height, is very likely to be persuaded by us to join Doma, but if he refuses, his soul will be sealed." Rafilu paused when he said this. For a moment, I looked at Hayato, "Also, do I need to give you a chance to do it?"

When Hayato heard this, the expression on his face remained the same, and he said coldly: "Keith? Huh, it's a perfect opponent to test my new power. Then leave it to me to try it out."

As he spoke, Hayato entered and left the alley without waiting for the three fellow Laferu to say anything, and walked towards where Keith was sitting.

Behind Hayato, Ameruda looked at his back and frowned, and opened his mouth to say something, but Rafilo raised his hand to block himself, preventing himself from calling Hayato.

Shaking his head, Rafilo watched Hayato approaching Keith, his eyes flickering and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Although Rafeel said that he wanted to invite Keith to join Doma first, but while walking towards Keith, Hayato had already inserted the card into the card slot, and opened the duel disk with a "click".

And this sound also attracted the attention of Keith, who was in a bad mood, and he turned his head to look at the figure appearing in the alley.Although he was not drunk, the amount of alcohol still had a certain influence on Keith, making him unable to recognize the identity of the person at first sight.After taking a few glances, Keith suddenly widened his eyes.

"You are, Kobayashi Hayato?!"

"Yo, Keith, I really didn't expect to see you in such a place. I remember the last time I met you was the last time." Hayato opened his mouth to talk nonsense, with a grin on his face illuminated by the dim street lights, " Why do you look so decadent?"

"Hey, it's not thanks to you!" Keith stood up from the ground and looked at Hayato with an ugly face, "Because of the damage you left me before Duel City, I was lying in the hospital for a long time. For half a year, I completely missed the opportunity of Duel City, which I originally wanted to use to make a name for myself!"

"Being the Duel King is quite impressive, Hayato Kobayashi! But what are you doing in front of me now?"

Keith was not a dull guy. Watching Hayato approaching him step by step, his hairs stood on end, and he felt as if he was being targeted by some ferocious beast, with a deadly sense of crisis.

The only possible source of this feeling is Hayato Kobayashi who is very strange in front of him.

On the day before the opening of Duel City, Isis handed the card of [Obelisk's Giant God Soldier] she brought from Egypt to Tongshiye City to Haima for use. At that time, Keith was driven out by Bekas. The island of the Duel Kingdom accidentally fell into the hands of Malik, who was still the leader of Gurus. He was used as a pawn and cannon fodder for sacrifice, and was controlled by the [Millennium Scepter] to attack the Egyptian Cultural Relics Touring Exhibition Hall.

At that time, although Keith was completely reduced to a puppet controlled by Malik at will, he was not unconscious. He was very aware of his experience at the time, and was controlled in an abnormally sober state.At that time, Hayato was Keith's opponent, and it was the second duel between Hayato and Keith after Duel Kingdom.

And that time, Keith had already lost to Hayato, and what was even more humiliating was that Hayato used a set of infinite loops with [Iron Knight-Kia Freed] as the core, which was shaved by infinite damage Although Keith with a basic score managed to get rid of Malik's influence, he was also sent to the hospital and lay there for more than half a year, completely missing the duel city afterwards.

Although now due to the increasing popularity of duel monsters, large and small competitions are held all over the world, but the most valuable competition so far is still the original duel city, and the Kiss who missed that competition are lying in the hospital. I can watch one duelist after another come from behind and surpass myself.

As a matter of course, Keith naturally hung his hatred on Hayato.

"Don't be so vigilant, Keith, have a duel with me." Hayato walked to a certain distance from Keith and stood still. After leaving enough space, he threw an object he was carrying at Keith. Passed over and was caught by Keith.

Keith looked down and saw that it was a duel plate sold by the Haima Group, which looked ordinary.

"Duel?" Keith held the duel disk in one hand and the card group he had taken out and not taken back in the other. Hayato Kobayashi?"

"A duel is a duel, do you need any reason?" Hayato raised the duel disk in his left hand and said, and Keith realized that the duel disk used by Hayato was not the one he threw to him. It is a dark green disc, and the part of the duel disc that unfolds is in the shape of a blade, which looks more handsome. "However, in order to match the atmosphere here, the next duel is not an ordinary duel,"

"It's a gamble of your soul, a dark duel."

As soon as Hayato finished speaking, without waiting for Keith on the opposite side to react, the "Olihagang Fragment" on his exposed right wrist burst into light. The alley was filled with green light, and Keith was horrified. Under the gaze of the two of them, everything around the two of them was replaced by a turbid darkness!

Keith took a step back and wanted to distance himself from Hayato, but found that there was an air-like wall behind him, which was supposed to be an air retreat, and he couldn't leave no matter what.

"The dark game or something, is it the set of manipulating the mind again!"

Different from the stubborn and stubborn Hippocampus who is superstitious about science, even though Keith is using a mechanical deck, he quickly accepts the dark game. [Millennium Artifact] The relationship between the holder's controlled mind is inside.

Bekas humiliated him with mind reading and almost killed him with mind manipulation, and Malik also used dark games to wrest control of his body.He is already very unwilling to be reduced to this point, and he will never be manipulated or anything!

Keith gritted his teeth tightly, the anger in his heart was about to overflow, he glared at Hayato viciously, "I have a limit for looking down on people, you bastard!"

"Don't think that I'm still the same as I was in the Duel Kingdom, Hayato Kobayashi! Anyway, it doesn't matter as long as I beat you!"

Keith said, put on the dueling disk, and inserted the card group into the dueling disk, "It just so happens that I have wanted to avenge you for a long time, Duel King!"

"Duel!"

【Kess: 4000LP】

Seeing that Keith took over the duel, Hayato nodded with satisfaction: "Hum, that's what I want, Keith, this is what I remember as the 'thief' Kis who has no ability but looks like a [-]." Si."

"Use your full strength to fight me, but remember to be careful, otherwise, the flames of my demon deck will swallow you in an instant."

"Duel."

【Falcon: 4000LP】

Seeing that Hayato drew five cards, out of pressure, Keith took the initiative and drew out a card very unscrupulously: "Stop being arrogant, Kobayashi Hayato, I will take the first attack, draw a card!"

Looking at the card he had drawn, Keith said: "First, I activate the continuous magic card [Second Chance]. This card can restart the effect of my coin toss once a round."

"Then I summon [BM-4 Bomb Spider] in face-up defense, and finally cover all four cards in my hand!"

On the Keith field, a spider-shaped chariot with its metal limbs folded in a defensive state appeared. Although it is a level 4 monster, it has an excellent defensive power of 2200 points, and the multiple rocket nests on its back are also It can be seen that what needs to be guarded against is its attack performance.

【BM-4 Bomb Spider】【4☆/Dark】

【Mechanical family/effect】

[1400/2200]

But what is more worthy of attention is the entire row of four block cards on Keith's backcourt. The only card back that is revealed is so plain and unpretentious, but it is hard to ignore.

What a standard "T" word expansion!

Hayato twitched his mouth, and said to Keith helplessly: "What you mean by 'not you in the Kingdom of Duel' are you referring to this thing?"

"Hmph, how's it going, Hayato Kobayashi, who always likes to bury a pile of holes for others to step on, how do you feel now that you see a row of cover cards on the opposite field?" Keith said proudly, "You gave me I can't wait to give you back those bad memories I left behind."
