Chapter 721: Nothing Left to Fear
"Obelisk, God Hand Crusher—Shockwave!"
The wild wind roared, the overbearing blue shockwave stirred up suffocating wind pressure, and even the thick darkness in the entire area was swept away.
That was a blow from the God of Destruction; in terms of pure destructive power, even the highest of the Egyptian Gods, The Winged Dragon of Ra, would feel inferior. Where the fist power reached, space was almost torn apart, the eruption of the overbearing fist power set off an unprecedented storm, and the wind pressure surged like a tide, turning everything in its path into powder.
Even the body of the Wicked God was fragile and vulnerable in front of that power, and the power at the center of the storm was like a dragon going out to sea. The black human figure projected by the Wicked God was swept into the vortex, letting out a series of heart-piercing roars, not knowing if they were screams or roars.
"Ahhhhhhh—"
The Wicked God's voice trembled in the wind.
"Obelisk..."
"Damn Obelisk!"
"Why is it you guys again?"
"Why can't you Egyptian Gods just obediently go to die with the Pharaoh!?"
At this very moment, the Wicked God truly felt fear. Even more fear than when he knew You Xuan and the others were coming to their territory and knew a decisive battle was imminent.
This reminded them of their last defeat, also facing the Egyptian Gods. Under the Pharaoh's control, they were blasted to pieces.
The world says that the Wicked Gods possess evil power that even surpasses the Egyptian Gods. But whether that is true, it's hard to say.
"Seto Kaiba... Damn Seto Kaiba," the Wicked God roared, "Is it you? Is it you who brought this card back to this world?"
"Is this your so-called 'Futurism'? Immersing yourself in the dead past all day, chasing those things that have long since passed?"
Kaiba sneered.
"A hateful guy once told me that those who cannot look directly at the past have no future. Although that guy is hateful, it seems he might be right."
"Besides..."
Kaiba proudly raised the arm wearing the Duel Disk. The Duel Disk seemed to respond to his words, suddenly blooming with blue divine radiance. That light gathered behind him, turning into the phantom of a blue giant, majestically towering, its scarlet eyes looking down at the dissipating shadow of the Wicked God.
"... It's not that I'm chasing, I was the chosen one from the start!" Kaiba shouted, "No matter what, Obelisk will always return to my hands in the end!"
Obelisk the Tormentor, the Egyptian God that Seto Kaiba first obtained and was most closely bound to. This is also why, when fighting Aigami, the CEO drew from the floor and patted it down, and what came out wasn't Slifer or Ra, but Obelisk.
From that time on, Kaiba realized that what went back to the Underworld with the Pharaoh were the God Cards, and only the God Cards. Just like the situation with these three Wicked Gods now, the cards disappeared, but it didn't mean the power of the gods no longer existed.
With Seto Kaiba's personality, it was impossible for him not to have thoughts about resetting the Egyptian Gods.
It's just that this matter was by no means easy, even for CEO Kaiba, who had the world's top card-printing technology and the solid background of being the reincarnation of a priest, it was also very difficult.
The first production of the three Egyptian God cards was a matter of luck. At that time, Pegasus personally handled it, and Pegasus still possessed the power of the Millennium Eye. And according to Pegasus, he couldn't resist the temptation of the Egyptian Gods and completed it while under mental influence.
To some extent, the birth of the Egyptian God cards at that time was the intention of the three Egyptian Gods themselves. Although Pegasus's own power and skills were also very important, what he actually played was just a medium tool for the Egyptian Gods to appear in the world.
But the situation of Kaiba wanting to remake the Egyptian God cards this time was different. At this time, the three Egyptian Gods had returned to the Pharaoh's side, and although they still obeyed his summons, they didn't have much enthusiasm for being remade into the world. The remaking work basically depended on the CEO's own ability, and now the CEO didn't have the assistance of the Millennium Items, so the difficulty was much higher than when Pegasus first released them.
Fortunately, the CEO has always had enough perseverance and resilience in card printing, and his black technology is like a Saiyan's combat power, the more stimulated, the stronger it gets. After years of hard work, the CEO finally completed the remaking of the Egyptian God cards recently. However, it is a pity that there is only this one, Obelisk. Perhaps he didn't hold the other two Egyptian Gods at the beginning, had no connection, and the technical difficulty was higher.
But Kaiba was quite satisfied with the current results. In the end, he himself agreed that Obelisk was his god and was the easiest to use. Back then, he spared no effort to hold the Battle City just to collect the three Egyptian God cards, thinking that collecting three cards would make him legitimately stand at the pinnacle of duelists, but now that thought has faded.
The reason he reproduced Obelisk was just because he felt that this card had a connection with him and should be a part of his strength. As for the thought that collecting the three Egyptian Gods would make him invincible, it had long been shelved.
So what if there are three Egyptian Gods? Even the Pharaoh, who collected the Egyptian Gods, was defeated by a mortal boy.
The strong one is the duelist, not the card. No matter how strong the card is, it's just an aid. If you have to rely on the suppression of God Cards to reach the top, what's the point?
At this moment, the Wicked God's human image had dissipated, and the cards used fell to the ground.
Kaiba pondered for two seconds and went up to check. But after searching for a while, the most critical card was missing.
Wicked God - Root of Fear.
Kaiba frowned. At this moment, a voice sounded in the air, weak, but vaguely the voice of the Wicked God who had just fought him.
"It is I... who lost. But this isn't over, Seto Kaiba..."
"You know nothing... about the truth of the world. Your world, all worlds, are already on the verge of destruction, the future... belongs to us."
!
The black shadow dissipated completely.
Kaiba got up and frowned.
All worlds...
What does that mean?
The deepest part of the Dark Realm.
A dark light seemed to shoot back from the edge of this realm, attached to the black shadow in the center of the realm, and was absorbed into its body.
And the black shadow in the center, Wicked God - Avatar, slowly opened his eyes.
"I didn't expect that the first one to fail would be you."
The voice of Root of Fear sounded, saying: "I was careless. That Seto Kaiba, I originally thought he was just a loser to us, but he is indeed more difficult to deal with now."
The Avatar said: "The impact just now, that aura... is it our old friend?"
Root of Fear said hatefully: "That's right. It's Obelisk. That guy Seto Kaiba actually summoned the power of Obelisk again."
The Avatar said in a deep voice: "Since there is Obelisk, we must be prepared for the worst. It wouldn't be strange if the other two guys returned at any time."
Root of Fear said worriedly: "If all three of them return..."
"It doesn't matter."
The Avatar snorted and laughed.
"Now, I have nothing left to fear."
