Is This the Poker World? Ada Thief!

You know, until the story of Yu-Gi-Oh! GX happened in 2012, Ryo Maruto was only 17 years old, and now it is just 2000. Even the prodigy Ryo Maruto, who has shown extraordinary dueling ability since childhood, is only now. But five years old.

In this way, Hayato thought of Maruto Ryo's previous generation of electronic duelists, Maruto Ryo's teacher, and also the principal of the Dueling Academy—Principal Samejima.The "Samejima Iemitsu" in front of him seems to be in his early thirties, and he will be 40 years later. Although it is a bit miserable to be bald at the age of 40, it can indeed match the age of that "Principal Samejima".

"That, Mr. Shashima?"

"Oh, what's wrong, Hayato-kun?" Shashima smiled kindly.Like the future, Shashima is a very kind person, and he is very friendly to young duelists, otherwise Haima would not have appointed him as the principal of the dueling academy.

"The hat on your head is too tight. If you wear too much, you will easily go bald."

Hayato just finished speaking, and someone not far away said, "That guy, it doesn't matter if he is bald."

Turning his head to look, Hayato saw a guy who walked quite arrogantly and even had a match with Keith.Beside that guy, there was a girl dressed as a maid, carrying an aluminum alloy suitcase beside him.

As he walked towards Hayato, the arrogant guy kept his eyes fixed on Shashima: "Yako Shashima, didn't you think of it? I said, don't think it's over if you beat me once, you just Wait for my revenge."

Hayato turned to look at Peacock Dance, and she nodded: "I said yesterday, the eldest young master of the Garham Consortium, Ptah Garham. He lost to that Shashima over there once."

"Hmph, that's the past!" Apparently, Ptah Garham was a little embarrassed to hear about his not-so-glorious record.Staring at the innocent-looking Peacock Dance, Ptah walked away without turning his head, and at the same time annoyed in his heart why he had lost his mind yesterday and told the woman named Peacock Dance about him.

The game counts the number of people present silently: 'Peacock dance, me, Joanouchi-kun and Hayato-kun, there are four people, as well as Mr. Shashima and the thief Keith, plus the words of Ptah Garham just now. There are seven people.The words of the last duelist should be—'

"Oh, it's really lively, so everyone came so early." A voice suddenly appeared behind the game, startling him.Looking back, the guy who came to their table at dinner last night was standing behind the game, "I thought I would be the first to arrive."

"Lemuria." Hayato frowned and read out his name that the other party reported last night.

Among the top eight players, Rogue Keith is good at gambling cards and mechanical monsters, and the city is also good at gambling cards. Games, or king-like decks, pay attention to fetters and cooperation.

Peacock Dance's deck is proficient in backcourt destruction. Even if Shashima's card is not the invincible Seba Doragon, it is highly likely to be a mechanic. The only ones whose information is unclear are only that Prahe Garham and the one in front of him. of Lemuria.

And Hayato's sixth sense as a duelist has been telling him one thing - the Lemuria in front of him is the enemy.

"Oh, Mr. Hayato, your eyes are so scary." Lemuria noticed Hayato's gaze and pretended to say, "Or, you can't wait to fight me? It's a passionate duel. ."

In the hall, the thieves Keith and the castle were bickering with each other, Shashima and the game chatted about each other's understanding of dueling monsters, Peacock Dance looked at his nails bored, and Ptah took his hand from the maid. The deck, while Hayato was playing "whoever blinks first loses" with that Lemuria.

"Cough cough." An old voice came, and the deacon of the castle appeared at the entrance of the hall at some point, reminding everyone of his existence, "All duelists have arrived, then please follow me to the duel hall, Lord Bekas is waiting for you there."

Under the guidance of the old deacon, everyone followed obediently to the place where Haima and Bekas dueled yesterday.As the old deacon said, Bekas was still wearing the same red suit that has remained unchanged for thousands of years, and has been waiting here for a long time.

"Wel! All duelists~, welcome to Y Castle." One mouth is old Bekas, "First of all, congratulations to anyone, who passed the selection of the first level and became the top eight of the dueling kingdom, with competition Qualification for the title of 'Dueling King'."

"However, I believe anyone has seen it, and there are seven other players standing beside you standing in front of you." Bekas said with a smile on his face, "So it is announced that the trials for the top eight will begin! "

Chapter 73 Jonai vs Putah

"The selection for the top eight." Cheng Nai nervously looked around at the others, "I don't know who I'll face, I'm so nervous."

"I wish I met you sooner, kid. It's too easy to deal with you. I'm afraid I don't even need to expose my trump card. In this kind of trials, the deeper the hole card is, the better." Rogue Keith confronted Said in the city.

Cheng Nai also did not show weakness: "Hmph, I should say that, right? To deal with a despicable villain like you, I don't even need 1% of my strength, I can defeat you easily."

"Oh, the city boy and Keith boy seem to be looking forward to the trials."

Bekas noticed the thieves Keith and Cheng Nai who were interacting with ruthless words: "You are quite moved by your enthusiasm for duels. But," after a pause, Bekas made a helpless expression, spread his hands and shook his head, "For the sake of To be fair, it's not yourself, it's not, it's this!"

He snapped his fingers, and the old deacon who returned to his place was signaled and pressed the button of a remote control beside him.A door suddenly cracked on the wall opposite the auditorium of the duel hall, and a large screen was pushed out from the wall.

On the big screen are the eight avatar frames that light up in the same style as yesterday. The only difference is that the avatars in the avatar frame are also lit up today, and the faces of Hayato, the game, and the city are all recorded.

The picture on the big screen began to change, and the eight avatars disappeared one by one, leaving only two blank avatar frames, symmetrical on both sides of the screen.The avatars in the avatar frame kept changing, and after a short while, its changes slowly stopped, and the last ones that appeared on the screen were the avatars of Cheng Nai and Ptah Garham.

"This uncle is actually the first to appear?" Ptah glanced at the castle next to him, then left it behind, staring straight at Shashima sitting next to the game, "Hmph, Shashima Kamitsu , you're lucky you didn't face me. Give me a good win, then wash your neck and wait for me to kill you!"

Cheng Nai was a little angry: "You are too complacent, aren't you? The only person who will win the duel is me, but I have a reason why I can't lose."

"As you can see, the two sides of the first tryout are the boy in the city and the boy in Ptah~" Bekas raised his hand and applauded, but no one cooperated with him, he stopped after two shots.He didn't feel embarrassed at all, he still had a smile on his face, "Then, after ten minutes of the match, you two should prepare well~"

Under the guidance of the old deacon, a group of people went to the auditorium that they had been to yesterday, and each chose a suitable place to be seated, while Cheng Nai and that Ptah Gallum followed the old deacon to the backstage for the next duel. prepare.

"Mr. Shashima, I heard from Mai-san, that Ptah Garum seems to have duel with you once." The game sitting next to Hayato asked Shashima next to him.

Shashima took off his hat, revealing his lush hair, and nodded: "Well, we met on the island yesterday afternoon. At that time, he seemed to have won seven duels in a row in one breath. It was one star chip away from entering the castle, so after seeing me he challenged me."

"Although the duel was very dangerous, I finally won the duel. Although we only bet one star chip, it seems that because I ended his winning streak, he seemed to hate it. Me, hahaha."

"It's just that you can't underestimate him just because he lost to me once." Shashima said seriously, "If you let me duel with him again, I can't guarantee that I will win again."

"The deck used by that guy seems to be a super rare card. Although it is not as scary as [Blue-Eyes White Dragon], it seems that only a few people around the world use it."

Ten minutes passed in a flash, and after a while, the passages on both sides of the duel ring that had been arranged earlier opened up, and Cheng Nei and Ptah took the elevators that moved forward from their respective passages to the duel arena.Putting their respective card groups on the dueling platform, the old deacon confirmed that both players were ready, and said loudly:

"I announce that in the first match of the Duel Kingdom's quarterfinals, the player from Kyoujo Nekaya will play against the player of Ptah Garham."

"The game officially begins!"

"Duel!" X2

[Ptah: 4000LP, hand card 5]

[Within the city: 4000LP, hand card 5]

"The first attack is mine! Draw the card!" The action was one beat faster than Cheng Nai, and Ptah took the lead by drawing five cards in his hand and won the first attack, "The kid on the opposite side, let me show you what belongs to me Master's gorgeous duel!"

"First of all, I have to activate the magic card, [The Sealed Mantra]!"

Under the action of the virtual projection system, a quaint wooden box appeared on Ptah's field. The four corners of the box were fixed with solid screws, and it seemed that something extraordinary was being held in the box.

"[The Sealed Mantra]?! Could it be that deck!" Although Ptach only played one card, the well-informed game had already recognized the true body of the deck he was using.On the side, Shashima nodded, confirming the game's guess: "Ah, it's the [Sealed Beast] deck."

"With the [Sealed Mantra] magic card as the core, summon a large number of [Sealed Beasts] monsters to form an army to defeat the enemy. This is the duel method of that Ptah Gallum." Shashima looked serious, "Even if you defeat a few [Sealed Beasts], it will not help. As long as [Sealed Mantra] is still on the field, Ptah can summon a large number of [Sealed Beasts] again at any time."

"When the number of monsters reaches a certain level, it is difficult for ordinary duelists to hold on for even a single round." Shashima looked at the duel arena, "Although there is a weakness that is relatively weak when there is no [sealed mantra], but no Thinking of drawing the core of the deck in the first round."

"Your friend in the city is in danger. The only thing to be thankful for now is that Ptah can't attack because he is the first striker."

Ptah's operation didn't stop because of the [Sealed Mantra], just as Shashima Iemitsu said, his summoning has just begun——

"Because there is [Sealed Mantra] on the field, all [Sealed Beast-Enun] and [Sealed Beast-Nunurao] in my hand can be Special Summoned directly!"

Saying that, Ptah played two hand cards on his field at the same time.

.

Chapter 74 I saw the security

Two strange-looking monsters were summoned to the field by Ptah. Judging from their appearance, the city didn't pay much attention to them.The two monsters don't have any special features other than the special summoning effect. Both their attack power and defense power are quite weak, and there is nothing to be concerned about.

【Sealed Beast-Nunurao】【2☆/Light】

"Is it just a monster of this level?" Cheng Nai looked at his hand and couldn't help but feel a little proud, "What, it seems that the top eight is still very simple, I feel that I am super brave now."

"Your expression doesn't seem to look down on the [Sealed Beast] on my field?" Ptah noticed the disdain in the city, and the corner of his mouth twitched, "Then let you see, my strongest [Sealed Beast]. All right!"

"Offer the two [Sealed Beasts] on the field as sacrifices! The power of combining light and darkness is coming!"

"[Sealed Beast - Baolong]!"

The two [Sealed Beasts] were liberated as sacrifices, and floated in the field as mysterious characters. The characters were combined and arranged to form a whole new monster, which appeared on Ptah's field.With a furious roar, a monster named Bronze with the appearance of [Nunurao] and [Inun] was summoned.

"Roar!!!"

"The eight-star monster was summoned in the first round!" Cheng Nai was shocked, "and the attack power is as high as 2700 points!"

"Hmph, the power of the [Sealed Beast] is more than what you have seen." Ptah was quite satisfied with the performance in the city.What he likes to see the most is the admiration and shock of others, so he will play duel monsters, "Next round, you will see the horror of my [Sealed Beast]."

"Ambush a card in the backcourt and my turn is over."

[Ptah: 4000LP, hand card 1]

【Sealed Beast-Baolong】【ATK2700】

【Gai Card】【The Sealed Mantra】

"Tsk, it's a bit difficult now." Cheng Nai glanced at his hand card with some annoyance.In the first five cards in his hand, he drew the monster with the highest attack power in the deck, the [Red-Eyed Black Dragon] obtained from the dinosaur Ryuzaki.However, even True Red Eye's attack power is only 2400 points, which is not as good as [Baolong]'s 2700 points.

"In that case, I can only ask for the next draw. My turn!"

Taking a look at the card, Cheng Nei looked happy, and glanced at Ptah on the opposite side with some pride: "A monster with a mere 2700 ATK, my deck is not just good-looking, let's see how I defeat it!"

"Activate a magic card, [Devil's Dice]." After playing a card in his hand, the city was a little proud, "Its effect is to select a monster on the field, and then roll a dice. The monster's attack power is up to At the end of the round, it will become the value divided by the dice points."

But the expectant eyes in the city were in vain.Obviously he played the card, but nothing happened on his field, it was still empty: "This is, what's going on?"

"Hmph, hahaha, the mere commoners actually want to use that kind of luck-based gambling card to attack my [Sealed Beast - Baolong]?" There is no reason for it to take effect, "As long as there is [Sealed Mantra] on my field, [Sealed Beast - Baolong] will be protected by [Mantra], no matter magic, trap or monster effect, even if it is used as the object of action Can't do it."

"Is it a noble non-target effect?" Hayato looked at the [Sealed Beast - Baolong] surrounded by mysterious runes, "[Devil's Dice] is a magic card that requires the selection of one monster to take effect. On the field It can't be activated when only the [Sealed Beast - Baolong] exists, and it is fortunate that the monsters were not summoned first in the castle."

"If you have monsters on your field, because you can't choose [Baolong] as a target, you will forcefully weaken your own monsters." The game looked at the field with some worry, "In the castle..."

"Not only does the attack power reach 2700 points, but it also has such a troublesome effect." The castle felt extremely troublesome. "In that case, I usually summon the [Black Panther Warrior] in my hand, then cover the two cards, and the round is over."

The black panther warrior with a machete appeared on the field within the city, looked at the [Sealed Beast - Baolong] on the opposite field, and let out a low roar without fear.According to the translation of [Rainbow Chestnut Ball], it seems to be saying something like "I saw the security guard".

Covering the two cards in his hand, the castle ended his turn just like that.
