Chapter 650

~7 min read 1,332 words

Off the coast of Duel Academy, underwater.

The submarine from the Garlem conglomerate was still parked here.

"Sir."

A soldier of the conglomerate reported to Echo.

"Still no contact today."

"I know."

Echo waved her hand somewhat listlessly.

They had been on standby here for several days. What the progress of this mission was, or even whether this mission was still being carried out, or whether they needed to continue to stay here, they didn't know at all.

A few days ago, people from the Kaiba Corporation came, which basically meant taking over the case.

Professor Cobra had been exposed, and it seemed that he had been dealt with by the Duel King himself. The Garlem conglomerate came here for Cobra, but now the primary target had disappeared.

As for the spirits in Professor Cobra's hands...

Even the Kaiba Corporation was alarmed, so it probably had nothing to do with them anymore.

But even so, they hadn't received any notification of the mission being canceled until now. No, or to be precise, they hadn't received any notification for many days.

Their main task here was actually to support Amon; the one truly responsible for intelligence gathering and specific execution was Amon. Directing actions and notifying them to enter the field were originally Amon's responsibility.

But the problem is that the leader is now AFK...

This was the first time Echo had seen such a situation in her many years of cooperation with Amon.

As the conglomerate's hidden ace agent, Amon's past work had always prioritized the conglomerate, always charging at the forefront. He could always make the best judgments and give the most accurate instructions.

However, until now, Echo almost felt that Amon had become completely indifferent to the mission... no, it even seemed that the entire conglomerate had become irrelevant to him.

She couldn't even be sure if the other party was still executing the mission.

Now Amon was often unreachable all day long. According to Echo, it seemed that he spent large chunks of time with that Duel King. The two would lock themselves in a room, tossing and turning for most of the day, not knowing what they were doing inside.

For the first time in history, Echo, as the person who knew Amon best, couldn't help but start to doubt.

Could the young master have been abducted from the conglomerate by someone?

At this very moment, Yubel was looking at Fujiki You Xuan with a strange expression.

"Can you stop staring at me like that?"

Fujiki You Xuan said indifferently: "What's wrong with looking? Don't be so stingy."

Yubel: "Haven't you heard that it's very rude to stare at a lady?"

Fujiki You Xuan: "Ah? Are you considered a lady?"

Yubel: "."

"Seriously, this has been my doubt all along," Fujiki You Xuan shrugged. "Besides, I didn't look at your body, I'm just studying your cards."

Yubel: "That is my body."

Well, that's right, Fujiki You Xuan was currently in his personal laboratory, with Yubel's deck spread out in front of him.

The three cards in the center were Yubel's core: Yubel, The Ultimate Nightmare, and The Ultimate Nightmare.

"I've cooperated with you on the tests that needed to be done, and you've collected the data that needed to be collected, what else do you want?"

Yubel was very unhappy.

She was starting to suspect that she had been fooled. Maybe this guy never intended to let her see Yugi, just using flowery words to confuse her into working for him, while actually harboring evil intentions...

Well, after thinking about it a little, she immediately felt that this idea couldn't hold water.

Because no matter what, she had indeed lost the duel just now. If the other party wanted to, he wouldn't need any flowery words, he could easily pose her in eighteen different ways, and she wouldn't be able to resist. But this person didn't do that after all.

"What exactly do you want?" Yubel asked depressedly.

"Nothing, just seeing if you're growing up healthy," Fujiki You Xuan said casually.

Yubel: "!"

"I'm talking about the cards."

Fujiki You Xuan smiled.

"Have you ever thought that maybe your evolutionary direction is fundamentally skewed?"

"Perhaps these second and third stages are not your correct evolutionary direction at all, but monsters born from the interference of some evil spirits outside the system?"

Yubel frowned: "I don't understand what you're talking about."

Fujiki You Xuan supported his chin and looked at her again for a moment.

It seemed that Yubel didn't realize that she had been possessed by the light of destruction.

Don't miss a single word of the content!

Fujiki You Xuan had tried to clear the light of destruction from her body with the power of the dark duel, but failed.

But this was also within Fujiki You Xuan's expectations. The light of destruction in Yubel might be stronger than any he had encountered before, because she had personally gone to space to be infected, and had coexisted with the light of destruction for a longer time.

It was the same in the anime. Although Saiou, the chapter boss, had also been possessed by the light of destruction for many years, after Yugi defeated Saiou with the power of Neos, the light of destruction was cleared, and Saiou's original personality successfully returned.

But at the end of the other-dimensional chapter, Yugi used "Super Polymerization" to fuse his and Yubel's souls, giving Yubel the ultimate dark power of the Supreme King, which completely cleared the influence of the light of destruction. This behavior also led to the complete fusion of their souls, transforming into the final form known as the 20th generation.

After the duel just now, Fujiki You Xuan could feel that the evil fluctuation of the light of destruction should have been suppressed, but it was just in a dormant state and still remained in Yubel's body.

Even with Fujiki You Xuan's current ability, it wouldn't be easy to eliminate it, and the simplest and most direct way would be to finish off Yubel along with it.

Although it's not impossible to consider doing so, Yubel is also a very powerful potential combat force for their camp, so Fujiki You Xuan still wanted to keep her if he didn't have to.

But he wouldn't have a headache over this tricky problem himself, and he would leave it to Yugi next. As the true protagonist of the "You" generation, whether it's awakening the soul with card power or using mouth escape, he believes Yugi must have a way.

And the reason for studying Yubel's cards was also for the potential of this deck.

Yubel's deck is different from most of the decks he had collected and studied before.

If Yubel's deck evolves to its complete form, it is a real big killer in the current environment. The reinforced Yubel is a real, genuine modern Yu-Gi-Oh top-tier deck, whether it's system stability, operation speed, or the strength of end-field resistance, it already belongs to the three-body level combat power compared to past decks.

Fujiki You Xuan put away the deck on the table.

Forget it, research is not a matter of a moment, and Yubel still needs to cooperate voluntarily. After Yugi handles Yubel, he's not afraid she won't cooperate.

"Let's not think about these for now, let's solve your body problem first."

Fujiki You Xuan thought. Yubel seems to need to swallow duel energy and the darkness in the hearts of duelists to accelerate her resurrection.

Then now, Amon is fighting in the other dimension all day long, conquering all directions. Sending Yubel to help out and pick up kills, the resurrection speed on the battlefield should be very fast...

Seeing that he seemed to be really considering her, Yubel's cold expression loosened slightly.

Her tone also softened, and she said: "Actually, there is something you might want to know."

"What?"

"On your island," Yubel said, "there is another guy with ill intentions hiding."

"Oh?"
