Chapter 1044

"It looks like I won the bet."

Fujiki You Xuan looked at the fake Zone and chuckled.

"What did I say?"

Fake Zone: "..."

Indeed, judging from the results, it seems Fujiki You Xuan was right.

Even if Copy Yusei's realm was far higher than his, even if the copy had the top-tier Clear Mind, had Delta Accel Synchro, Cosmic Blazar Dragon, and the existence of Meklord Emperor that absolutely restrained Synchro...

Even with all these things, even if it looked like a completely crushing situation on paper, Fudo Yusei still fought without fear and won.

"This is unscientific, Fudo Yusei does not have this level of strength according to calculations," fake Zone said, "Data..."

But before he could say more, Zone interrupted him: "It is precisely because you are always too obsessed with data that you cannot see it..."

Fake Zone: "What?"

"What I am looking for, the things that can truly bring change to the future," Zone said lightly, "Perhaps at the beginning of this duel, Fudo Yusei was indeed not as good as your copy version.

But is it still the case now?"

Fake Zone's gaze moved slightly, staring at Yusei on the projection screen for a moment, and then he seemed to understand something.

"Duelist level... Breaking ten?"

His tone was full of surprise.

"The realm of the King?"

"It seems so."

Zone's usually calm tone could not hide that trace of a smile at this time.

This incident was indeed an accident for Zone. The copy 5D's group from another dimension had a significant impact on the WRGP and his plan.

However, in terms of results, this wave of challenges from otherworldly copies actually promoted Fudo Yusei to evolve faster, much faster than Zone had expected.

Fudo Yusei has become the King.

The true Duel King in this dimension and this timeline. This is exactly what Zone has always wanted to see, and it is also the evolution he tried to stimulate in Yusei through the series of trials that followed, the WRGP and the Ark Cradle.

But now, under the actions of these otherworldly copies, this goal has actually been achieved in advance, and Zone is naturally gratified.

Perhaps this development is also part of that Fudo Yusei copy's plan?

That Copy Yusei challenged the real Yusei with several plans in mind.

On one hand, this duel itself was to test the strength of Yusei in this dimension, allowing Copy Yusei to judge the strength of both sides.

If he won, then Copy Yusei would probably replace Yusei to fight, challenge Zone on the final battlefield of the Ark Cradle, and stop Zone's plan to destroy New Tongshiye.

And if he lost, it probably meant that through this duel, Fudo Yusei had also awakened new power and touched a higher realm.

So no matter the result, this duel was acceptable to him.

And at this time, this Copy Yusei had already overturned on the duel overpass.

Thick engine oil meandered into glowing snakes on the asphalt road, the twisted frame of the D-Wheel was stuck in the isolation belt ten meters away, still spraying electric arcs. Copy Yusei lay on his back in the center of the oil stain, the artificial skin on his right cheek peeling off like cracked pottery, and the exposed metal cheekbone was splashing orange-red sparks. The sparks fell on his leather jacket, burning out black holes with a burnt smell.

The circuits in his neck were broken, and when his mechanical pupils dilated, the shattered lens array inside the iris could be clearly seen, refracting chaotic colors like a broken kaleidoscope.

When he tried to lift his left hand, the hydraulic tube in his forearm suddenly burst, and the splashed light blue liquid was like the blood of an alien race under the moonlight.

Yusei stopped the D-Wheel and rushed over with long strides.

"Are you okay!"

But of course, it could be seen from this tragic scene that he was obviously not okay.

Copy Yusei didn't mind, still smiling reluctantly: "I'm fine..." Yusei leaned over and picked up his upper body, letting his half-body, which seemed on the verge of breaking, lean on him: "Don't talk, I'll find someone to fix you..."

"No need."

Copy Yusei smiled, smiling very frankly.

"It's enough. What I wanted to do... has already been completed..."

Yusei was stunned: "What?"

"In the past, I thought I was the real Fudo Yusei."

The copy said with difficulty, his voice a bit hoarse, occasionally with buzzing electronic interference sounds.

"Accel Synchro, Delta Accel Synchro, top-tier Clear Mind... buzz..."

Copy Yusei said with some difficulty.

"And our bonds... the bonds of the 5D's. I have always been supporting each other with my companions and fighting side by side. Having all of this... buzz... I originally thought... I was no longer inferior to you..."

Yusei's expression was complex: "You..."

He wanted to say something, but Copy Yusei interrupted him again: "Until today, meeting you again, the real original, I realized that your strength is not just in the bonds with your companions, nor is it just powerful cards.

Even with similar cards and similar partners, I... have never been able to become you. No matter how advanced the technology, no matter how perfect the craftsmanship, it is impossible... impossible to create a second Fudo Yusei..."

Yusei was silent for a moment, then looked up and said: "Yes, you are not me."

But after a pause, he continued: "But you don't have to become me either. You are you, I can tell, you are a truly proud duelist who fights together with your companions for unwavering beliefs.

Even if you are artificial, through this duel, I felt your heart."

He clenched his right fist and placed it horizontally on his chest.

"I can feel your sincere soul, a noble soul belonging to a true duelist."

Copy Yusei was silent for a few seconds, then smiled with relief.

"To be able to be said so by the original, it's probably... buzz... the best evaluation I can get..."

He seemed to use the last bit of strength in his whole body, raised his hand, and handed over a card.

Yusei took the card, and then his expression changed suddenly.

What was handed to him was exactly the "Cosmic Blazar Dragon" that appeared in the duel just now.

"This..." Yusei said in surprise, "Isn't this your Delta Accel Synchro, the most important one..."

"Yes, the most important card, but it should have belonged to you, the real Fudo Yusei."

Copy Yusei said.

"My mission has been completed... or rather, it should have failed. My timeline has been destroyed, my world has long ceased to exist, and the mission for which I was created has not been completed.

And now, the future of this world has been entrusted back to your hands, Fudo Yusei. With you now, I am sure you will be able to do it, to stop this world from repeating the same mistakes.

So I have no reason to exist anymore."

When he said this, a cold electronic sound had already come from the D-Wheel that had overturned beside him.

"Self-destruct program has been activated, entering countdown."

Yusei's expression changed suddenly.

"What are you going to do?"
