Chapter 61

Bandit Keith left screaming.

"So you went to the Fairy Realm?"

A few minutes later, Mokuba Kaiba came to the ruins and looked at Fujiki You Xuan in surprise.

After winning the duel against Keith, the Orichalcos barrier immediately shrank and sucked away Bandit Keith's soul. And immediately after, the surroundings turned upside down, and after a journey like riding the clouds and mist, Fujiki You Xuan quickly returned to the ruins.

Fujiki You Xuan let out a long sigh of relief when he landed.

Finally back.

So close, so close. Fortunately, he was quick and nimble just now, and before being teleported away, he snatched the Duel Disk from Bandit Keith's hand and held it tightly in his arms when he was teleported away. Even he couldn't help but admire his reflex-like speed of pulling the Duel Disk. If he had reacted a little slower just now, he might not have had time to lick the package before being teleported away, which would have been a huge loss...

And Mokuba also came over in person to confirm the situation after hearing that something had happened at the ruins.

"Seems so."

"And then you met people from the New Xin Xin Duoma?"

"So they are called New Xin Xin Duoma?" Fujiki You Xuan supported his chin. "What does it have to do with the old Xin Xin Duoma?"

Mokuba said: "No direct connection has been found in the investigation so far, only that they also use the 'Orichalcos Barrier' and hunt the souls of duelists through duels."

Fujiki You Xuan understood: "So, the 'Judge' that President Kaiba was investigating before, was it them?"

He instantly seemed to understand why there was an organization worthy of President Kaiba going to such lengths to track down in person.

Eight years ago, Kaiba had personally felt the power of this organization called Xin Xin Duoma, and had also seen with his own eyes what kind of power that God of Orichalcos had. Now that the Three Phantom Gods were gone, if that evil god woke up again, he would naturally become the main line of defense to protect this world.

And even if not from this perspective, for Kaiba himself, this must be an unforgettable hurdle in his career as a duelist.

Because when facing Dartz, the leader of the former Xin Xin Duoma organization, he didn't hesitate to fight side by side with his old rival Yami Yugi, two against one, but still lost the duel, and his soul was almost swallowed by the God of Orichalcos. Later, it was Yami Yugi who took a blank card and printed it on the spot to win back the victory thrillingly.

So in the end, it was Yugi who turned the tide and destroyed Xin Xin Duoma. Now that Atem was gone, if there was a chance to get back at the God of Orichalcos, the President would definitely not miss it.

"Then the 'Judge' mentioned by President Kaiba before, is it the leader of New Xin Xin Duoma? Is it Dartz?" Fujiki You Xuan probed.

Mokuba shook his head: "The identity is currently unknown, only this code name is known. But I don't think it's him, it's someone else who awakened the power of Orichalcos sealed by Yugi—I mean, by the Pharaoh—through some unknown way."

Fujiki You Xuan tried to recall the plot of DM. Atem finally used his "container of the heart" to seal the God of Orichalcos, who represented the dark will of this world. After Dartz saw that the situation was gone, he sank into the bottom of the sea with the ruins of ancient Atlantis and disappeared. Although he seemed to have left the stage, he didn't die after all, so the possibility of him coming back to life couldn't be ruled out.

"But even that Keith joined New Xin Xin Duoma, I didn't expect them to be attacking the Fairy Realm now..." Mokuba said. "It's really amazing that you could beat him."

Fujiki You Xuan nodded deeply: "Yeah, yeah, it was extremely thrilling, and winning in the end was purely lucky. Thinking about it, I think it's because my deck isn't strong enough. If I could have more rare cards..."

Mokuba scratched his head: "But the inventory of cards in the branch here has already been shown to you last time... Oh, right!"

He slapped his forehead and suddenly thought of something: "You are already a student of the Duel Academy, right? Then showing you 'that' shouldn't be considered a violation."

"What?" Fujiki You Xuan was stunned.

"It's the latest powerful rare cards that the company has just completed and haven't been released yet." Mokuba smiled. "According to the original plan, they were to be transported to the Duel Academy.

However, the quantity of this batch of cards is limited. Once they really arrive at the academy, they will probably be snatched up very fiercely. It would be good to be able to buy one or two packs. Anyway, you are also a student of the academy, so selling them to you first shouldn't be a violation of the rules."

Powerful rare cards expected to be transported to the Duel Academy, could it be...

Fujiki You Xuan immediately thought of the plot of the first few episodes of the GX anime.

It seems there was an episode where not long after school started, a naval fleet sailed majestically towards the Academy Island, and there was a fighter formation escorting it in the sky. The captain looked like he was facing a great enemy, carrying a briefcase with the Kaiba Corporation LOGO on it, saying something like "no matter what, this thing must be delivered safely".

At that time, his first reaction was that it was too ridiculous, a whole fleet and fighters escorting a box of cards, is that okay?

After thinking about it carefully, it felt even more ridiculous. Because if any expert really had designs on that box of cards, the fleet and fighters seemed to be of no use.

After all, no matter how awesome aircraft carriers and cannons are, can they beat those who play cards?

However, it seems that no students bought that box of cards, because they were all intercepted by Professor Chronos before the students finished class. He bought all the cards and gave them to Manjoume, and then let Manjoume take this box of rare cards to sanction the poor student Judai Yuki.

Manjoume's famous VWXYZ series later came from that.

Thinking of this, Fujiki You Xuan's eyes lit up.

Manjoume's VWXYZ series is actually quite fierce in this environment. In the anime, Manjoume showed many powerful support cards that were not made into physical cards. For example, the more representative one is the Continuous Spell 【Union Hangar】 he used in the TV show, which looks a bit like the prototype of the powerful new card 【Union Hangar】 that came out more than ten years later in the physical card environment.

Although the GX anime limited version of VWXYZ shouldn't be as powerful as the physical version reinforced by K-Company's new cards more than ten years later, it should also belong to a relatively prominent series in this environment.

As for what Manjoume, whose deck was intercepted, should do...

Well, that's not a problem he needs to consider.

Although this series is rare, it shouldn't be as rare as some characters' signature cards. When Manjoume drifted to the North Academy of the Duel Academy in the anime, his original deck was all damaged in the shipwreck and couldn't be used, so he had to temporarily piece together a new deck at the North Academy.

So theoretically, the VWXYZ that Chronos gave him should have been scrapped.

Later, there was a period of time when he didn't use this series again, but one day in the middle and late stages of the plot, he suddenly took out this deck again. So either he didn't happen to bring this deck when he left the academy, or he later used the money power of the Manjoume Group to buy a new one.

"Then I'll notify you to come and see it when the cards arrive in two days." Mokuba smiled.

"Many thanks."

"Hey, you're welcome, you're welcome. Compared to this, you'd better worry more about the competition." Mokuba smiled happily. "If you can become stronger as soon as possible, my brother should also be happy.

If you are solved by him in a few moves when you get to the competition field, my brother might be very angry."

Fujiki You Xuan: "..."

As soon as this was mentioned, he immediately felt the pressure again.

Indeed, although theoretically there was no mandatory requirement for him to win the competition, if he lost too ugly, the President would probably be angry.

"Oh, right, the head of the research group here said there are still some questions he wants to ask you."

"Research group?"

"Yeah, it's the team responsible for the ruins research." Mokuba said. "The development of Black Luster Soldier has been stuck in a bottleneck in the academic world for a long time. The head said he felt this opportunity is great.

Maybe you will be the first duelist to assist in developing the new power of Black Luster Soldier."
