Chapter 377: Card-Playing Exchange

"So that's it, this kind of thing actually happened in Shimizu Town..."

Mokuba muttered.

"Yeah, an ancient monster has been resurrected and is currently collecting nutrients everywhere." Fujiki You Xuan said.

"What kind of ancient monster is it again..."

Mokuba rubbed his temples.

"Again?" Fujiki You Xuan heard that this kind of thing didn't seem to have happened only once.

"Yeah." Mokuba said helplessly, "With the advancement of Duel Monster development over the years, not only are more and more stone tablet ruins being excavated everywhere, but all kinds of ancient monsters and demons are also popping up.

Just two months ago, the Greek branch reported that they dug up some god who claimed to be Hades, saying he was in charge of the underworld or something, and seemed to have formed a force by parasitizing a local official..."

"Underworld Monarch Hades?" Fujiki You Xuan asked.

"Uh, maybe about the same, do you know him?" Mokuba asked.

"No..." Fujiki You Xuan's expression was complex.

It wasn't a question of knowing or not knowing, that was also a Yu-Gi-Oh card.

6-star Fiend-type, 2450 ATK, effect is to negate the effects of monsters destroyed in battle by Fiend-type monsters on your field. He even felt that this thing was a bit of a salted fish...

"And then?" Fujiki You Xuan asked.

Mokuba shrugged: "Nothing special. The Duel Mobile Team of Kaiba Corp was dispatched and surrounded that organization. However, it is said that the monster called Hades took quite a bit of effort, and later it was a two-on-one by the mobile team members that barely passed the duel to take it down..."

That 6-star salted fish could actually become a climate?

Although he hadn't seen it directly and didn't know how strong the spirit was, Fujiki You Xuan estimated that if it was that "Dark Ruler Hades" card, even if it came to his spirit team, it would probably only be at the bottom.

"Didn't find Jonouchi?" Mokuba asked.

Fujiki You Xuan shook his head: "I think he probably went there, but he was already gone when I arrived."

"So that's it... Alright, then thank you for your hard work." Mokuba nodded, "We already know the situation, you don't have to worry about the rest, we will have people to handle it."

Fujiki You Xuan didn't ask any more questions. But he thought that the Little Lobster's clone in Shimizu Town had already been handled by him, and the remaining mess, although not small, was nothing more than a bit more effort, which shouldn't be a problem for the power of Kaiba Corp.

"But be careful about that monster." Fujiki You Xuan said, "I think the one this time is probably not just any ordinary Shadow spirit. This one is probably not something an ordinary duelist can handle."

Mokuba smiled: "Don't worry. The members of the mobile team are also elites in the dueling world, all with professional standards."

Professional standards...

Fujiki You Xuan pondered for a moment.

He felt that this was a bit hard to say, but now the so-called professional duelists were basically equivalent to the Jonin in the neighboring ninja village in his eyes. It was okay to hang on the mouth as a background board, but if they really did it, forget it...

"How come, is it not right?" Mokuba noticed his abnormal expression.

"Well... it's not that I'm saying, but I think this monster, in Kaiba Corp... is probably only Seto Kaiba himself who can deal with it."

"So powerful?" Mokuba was surprised.

Fujiki You Xuan nodded seriously.

He really wasn't exaggerating.

The upper limit of The Tragoedia's strength was unknown, because it was plot-killed by Yugi, who was granted supreme authority by the priest Maat at the end of the GX manga, and before that, it showed overwhelming power that was completely on a different level from all the characters who appeared in the plot, but it hadn't directly collided with legendary duelists, so its strength level was unknown.

But just from its background, its origin was really not small.

Three thousand years ago, when the astrologer possessed by The Tragoedia was caught by the priests, it revealed the darkest secret hidden by the priests, which even the Pharaoh didn't know.

That was the secret about the birth of the seven Millennium Items, the ancient Egyptian royal family slaughtered all the residents of Kul Elna village and used the blood of all the villagers as a sacrifice for the Millennium Items.

The final boss of DM, Zorc the Dark, had the Thief King as his container in the human world, who was the only survivor of Kul Elna village. The Thief King, who was a child at the time, witnessed the slaughter of the villagers with his own eyes, and very powerful darkness was bred in his heart.

And in the extension of the GX manga, it was supplemented that the survivors of Kul Elna village were not just the Thief King.

In the ancient Egyptian palace, an astrologer under the Pharaoh was also a hidden Kul Elna villager. He escaped a disaster because he was working in the palace far away from the village, and after learning the truth about the slaughter of his compatriots, he fell into extreme despair, and only then was a terrifying monster like The Tragoedia bred in his heart.

This was also why The Tragoedia drove powerful darkness that could directly confront the Millennium Items.

"I know, since even Fujiki You Xuan says so..."

Mokuba nodded solemnly.

"I will tell the investigation team to be careful, and I will also pass it on to my brother. Thanks."

While the two were talking, they had already crossed the hall of Kaiba Corp and arrived at the entrance.

"The tournament resumes today, but looking at this progress, the top eight should be decided within today, right?" Mokuba said.

"Oh? How many are there now?"

Fujiki You Xuan had already collected the puzzle cards and obtained the qualification for promotion before the suspension of the tournament, but at that time, except for him and Seto Kaiba who had already promoted without accident, the only ones who successfully promoted were the user of the world's strongest hero Deck, Hibiki Koyo.

"There are already five... Oh, speaking of which, your good buddy has also promoted." Mokuba smiled, "As expected of the person recommended by Fujiki You Xuan, I was a bit surprised when I heard he was a student of Osiris Red, didn't expect him to be unexpectedly strong."

"Judai?"

Fujiki You Xuan wasn't very surprised.

After all, Judai had brushed the New Doma club with him, and he was only two cards away at that time.

"Oh, speaking of which, something interesting seems to be happening at the gathering point of the promoted players, it just happens to be your good buddy. Interested in going to see?"

"What?"

Fujiki You Xuan was stunned.

But after following Mokuba to the gathering point, Fujiki You Xuan understood.

At the location along the coast of the city, two people were standing on the left and right, and they were actually playing cards.

On one side was the classic Osiris Red school uniform with a jellyfish head, obviously Judai.

And on the other side...

"Hibiki Koyo?"

Fujiki You Xuan was surprised.

Judai had already clashed with the world champion?

"But didn't they both already promote?"

Fujiki You Xuan asked Mokuba.

"Yeah." Mokuba shrugged and smiled helplessly, "But your classmate enthusiastically recognized his idol as soon as he came up, and then the two of them chatted enthusiastically, the more they chatted, the more excited they got, and then they seemed to say they couldn't wait for the tournament or something, and they started doing it without saying a word..."

Fujiki You Xuan: "..."

What kind of card-playing exchange conference is this?
