Chapter 570
The vacation time passed quickly, and Duel Academy ushered in a new school year again.
But this time, the Duel Academy in the new school year didn't just welcome cute junior students.
The azure sky, the sun penetrated the blue sky and cast mottled light and shadows, as if the world had been plated with a layer of warm and soft golden brilliance. The sparkling sea surface was like countless small blue sapphires inlaid, swaying under the gentle breeze.
The white passenger ship sailed slowly in the magnificent picture of the sea and sky meeting, riding the wind and waves towards the direction of Duel Academy.
"October 11th."
The red-haired man wearing glasses stood at the bow of the ship, speaking to the recording equipment in his hand as if talking to himself.
"The voyage to Duel Academy seems to be finally coming to an end.
Kaiba Corporation specially prepared a luxury passenger ship for this voyage of ours; it is said that it should have spent quite a lot of funds, but for such a ship, there are only a few five passengers."
The red-haired man—Ammon Garam, a young master from the world-renowned Garam conglomerate, looked around, then slowly pushed the bridge of his nose glasses.
Ammon Garam is a man who looks gentle and refined; the glasses on the bridge of his nose played a big role in shaping this image. However, if you have read the story of GX, you would know that this appearance actually carries some intentional misleading effects.
If anyone treats him as a young master who can't even truss a chicken and therefore underestimates him, they will definitely suffer for it. Hidden under this civilized appearance is actually a well-trained body; he has a muscular body that is not inferior to a mercenary, not only possessing powerful strength but also mastering top-notch fighting techniques. Even in terms of martial arts, he is confident that he will not lose to anyone.
"I have already understood the situation of all passengers. The first one is naturally me, Ammon Garam.
The second person is Jim Crocodile Cook..."
Saying that, he raised his eyes to look at the side of the swimming pool on the ship not far away.
The man wearing a wide hat and dressed like a cowboy was lying comfortably under the sun. But if you look closely, you will find that what he is pillowing under his head is not a pillow, but a green big crocodile with a terrifying appearance.
"Jim is the easiest member to see, because that deck is his favorite place. He is always in that place."
While Ammon was talking, Jim was yawning lazily under the sun. The eyeballs of the crocodile under his head seemed to move upward.
"The third and fourth people are Professor Cobra and Austin O'Brien respectively." Ammon said, looking back, "But these two people don't leave their rooms much..."
"..."
The dark-skinned mercenary O'Brien was in his room at this time, skillfully taking out the gun-like object from his waist. But when he wore that gun on his hand and deployed it, he found that it was a duel disk.
He is a mercenary, and this is a special duel disk. It can be used as a gun when needed, and can also transform into a duel disk when dueling.
A knock on the door of the room sounded.
"Who is it?"
O'Brien got up to open the door.
Professor Cobra's burly figure appeared at the door, looking down at O'Brien, and said indifferently: "Besides me, is there anyone else who would come to find you?"
O'Brien handed a file on the table to the professor upon hearing this.
"This person is inquiring about me." O'Brien said.
The professor took it, scanned the file, and frowned.
"Ammon... Ammon Garam. That Garam conglomerate's..."
Cobra put down the document and snorted lightly.
"So that's it, it seems like he also came with some purpose, seems like he will be a troublesome guy... well, don't worry about him for now. He can't cause us trouble yet."
O'Brien nodded: "Yes, Professor."
"Don't forget your mission." Professor Cobra said sternly, "I also found others to inquire about Duel Academy before, but the situation is not very good."
O'Brien's expression was serious: "Because it is the territory of the 'King'?" "Not bad."
Professor Cobra stood with his hands behind his back and nodded.
"Rumor has it that the 'King' of this generation is cunning and suspicious by nature; acting in his territory requires taking not small risks."
O'Brien opened his mouth, but hesitated for a moment and didn't speak.
"Why?" Professor Cobra said, "If you have any questions, just say it."
O'Brien thought for a while and said: "Then, why must it be at Duel Academy?"
"I mean, since acting here has such risks..."
"This is necessary."
Before he could finish, O'Brien interrupted.
"I am your commander, you only need to obey orders. You only need to know that this mission has a purpose that must be carried out at Duel Academy, understand?"

O'Brien bowed his head: "Yes, sir."
"Good." Professor Cobra turned around, "I heard you are the best, I hope you are at least better than the last guy I hired. Don't let me down."
O'Brien: "I won't, sir."
"..."
On the deck, Ammon paused for a moment before continuing to record.
"As for the fifth person, he is still a ghost so far."
"This person is clearly registered on the roster, but he hasn't appeared so far. I now suspect that he might not be on this ship."
"But it doesn't matter."
Ammon smiled lightly when he said this.
"Once we arrive at Duel Academy, he will appear no matter what. By then, the true identity will come to light."
"Compared to this, what worries me more about this journey is something else..."
Ammon Garam put down the recording equipment, his smile disappeared, and he looked at the direction of Duel Academy with some solemnity.
Looking from here, the outline of the Duel Academy island had vaguely begun to appear on the boundless sea. But even in this clear-sky weather, the island still looked a bit hazy, as if shrouded in a layer of invisible mist.
As if some kind of barrier, an ominous barrier, shrouded the entire island, warning any evildoers heading to this island.
"The territory of the 'King'." Ammon muttered, "Rumors in the underworld say that the 'King' is a treacherous and ruthless existence.
The only forbidden area in this world is the territory of the 'King'. The moment you land on the island with any extra purpose, you will be detected. The final result is either being expelled, or wandering in the abyss of nightmares forever."
"Legend has it that even the most dazzling 'Light' organization, its believed cosmic light was extinguished forever on this island, and countless believers of light fell into darkness forever..."
Saying that, he paused, and Ammon suddenly laughed, picking up the recording equipment in his hand again.
"Well, legends, all carry exaggerated components."
"I'm looking forward to seeing, the King's territory... whether it is as taboo as they say."
