Chapter 778

Paradox did not agree to gamble for Stardust Dragon with Fujiki You Xuan, which was a bit of a pity.

It was a shame, as Stardust Dragon was still quite overpowered in this early Synchro version environment. Unfortunately, it was a non-sale item from the outside world, exclusive to the Security Force, so it couldn't be bought even with money.

And with the effect of negating the opponent's monster effects, Fujiki You Xuan felt it was quite compatible with him.

But it was just a white monster, so it didn't matter. On one hand, Paradox might not have had a very good dueling experience after one match with Fujiki You Xuan and didn't want to duel him again. On the other hand, he didn't dare to gamble.

After all, Stardust Dragon was a special card for the Security Force, and its nature was similar to a police-issued firearm. Even if Paradox was thick-skinned, he wouldn't dare to gamble with such a thing. If he lost and it was lost, he would probably have to go to the detention center to be cellmates with Yusei.

Sure enough, Fujiki You Xuan soon found that his reputation in this duel hall was rising, and fewer and fewer people were willing to accept his card-gambling matches. Even when he entered and exited the venue, people began to point at him, saying things like "incarnation of the underworld" or "rising dawn," which were slanderous.

So Fujiki You Xuan quit while he was ahead, changing locations after one shot, and went to a duel hall in another area to continue playing.

He gained quite a lot in just one day. He traveled back and forth between various duel halls and card shops in each area, opening card packs, and then selling the cards he didn't need to exchange for new card packs.

His judgment of card value was not exactly the same as the outside market. He felt that some weak cards that most people thought were useless in the current environment were very valuable. There were also cards that the outside world thought were worth a fortune, but Fujiki You Xuan thought they were useless and sold them off at a high price.

In this way, he had already gained a lot in just one day.

For example, one card that caught his eye the most was this one.

【Fishborg Blaster

Level 1, ATK 100, DEF 200

Tuner/Effect: If you control a Level 3 or lower WATER monster, discard 1 card to Special Summon this card from the Graveyard. If this card is used as a Synchro Material, all other Synchro Materials must be WATER monsters.】

This is a true master; it is a forbidden card in reality even today. Modern card players can probably see its heaven-defying nature at a glance—it can actively revive from the Graveyard, and this effect doesn't even say "once per turn."

In the Yu-Gi-Oh! game that has developed to this day, things without a "once per turn" clause are already monstrous enough, and this thing doesn't even have a "once per turn" limit, so being banned seems to be a matter of course.

It is such a powerful card, but its value in the current world doesn't seem to be very high.

However, Fujiki You Xuan can probably guess why. With an ATK of only 100, it is easily categorized as "trash" in the anime world, which doesn't fit the values of anime duelists. And even if one wants to use it for Synchro, it limits the materials to all WATER monsters.

And as everyone knows, the WATER attribute has been a relatively unpopular attribute for many years in the early days, and it is not very favored compared to big attributes like LIGHT and DARK. Even in the anime, most duelists don't like WATER attribute decks, so it is reasonable for it to be treated coldly.

That makes it cheap for Fujiki You Xuan, and he gathered three Fishborgs without much effort.

And he happened to know a powerful WATER attribute deck in this era.

The deck that won the 2010 World Championship in Long Beach, USA: Frog.

A deck with Frog as the theme. At that time, Frog had super-high-speed operation ability, could easily search and dispatch almost any resource in the deck, had high-speed summoning and field-making ability, and was paired with the WATER-exclusive Tuner Fishborg Blaster that could revive infinitely, making its combat power extraordinary in the environment at that time.

However, it couldn't be said that it completely crushed other decks at that time.

For example, in the final of that championship, Frog encountered a powerful counterattack from the previous World Champion "Blackwing." That match could be said to be a battle to the edge of the universe where the avenues were worn away; both sides played all their trump cards and fought with all their might, and Frog finally won by a narrow margin, thrillingly taking the championship.

Fujiki You Xuan had already gathered most of the Frog deck before coming to this dimension, and after supplementing some components that were not in the previous dimension, another championship deck was basically formed.

And speaking of this, as the previous champion, Blackwing was also on his list.

Compared to Frog, Blackwing, which had the blessing of the anime, was undoubtedly more famous. Blackwing was a deck that represented super-high-speed deployment from the moment it was born, and it was the symbol of high-speed offense in the early Synchro era.

And in the anime, as the deck of Crow, who was also born in the slums of Satellite, the acquisition difficulty of most cards was not high. Fujiki You Xuan intentionally opened some related card packs and collected quite a few. In fact, the character setting background of 5ds determined that the entry threshold for the protagonist group's decks was not high. Yusei's Synchron, Crow's Blackwing, and Jack's Resonator. After all, their character settings were all born in Satellite, and except for the few dragons that would automatically seek their masters as Signers, it wouldn't fit their character settings if there were rare cards in their main decks, so their main decks were all relatively easy to obtain.

However, Fujiki You Xuan was always a bit curious about this.

Blackwing was a version-answer deck that won the World Championship in reality, and Yusei's deck was also a powerful mainstream top-tier deck of that period after being developed into a "Junk Doppel" build by card players.

It was unimaginable that a deck with such strength would be discarded into the trash heap of Satellite in the anime.

New Domino City, Security Headquarters.

Rex Goodwin, the highest official of the Security Bureau, stood in front of the window of the Security Bureau, his expression indifferent, but his gaze looked deeply at the bustling traffic in the city below.

The automatic door behind him opened, and his subordinate Lazar walked in, bowing respectfully.

"Director."

Goodwin glanced at him sideways and asked.

"Have you found out about Yusei Fudo's situation?"

"Yes."

!

Lazar said in a sharp voice, laughed a few times, and said.

"That Yusei Fudo has really suffered this time. I asked around, the warden over there is not someone to be trifled with, he will probably suffer a lot inside this time."

Goodwin narrowed his eyes and said nothing.

"Then Director, what's next?"

Lazar looked around and lowered his voice.

"That Yusei Fudo slipped out of Satellite and dueled our King in secret.

Although the news is currently blocked and no one knows about that duel, we all know that from the result, the King should have lost.

The King's undefeated myth has been broken, and if this gets out, it will be very unfavorable for us. What do you think..."

"Hmm."

Goodwin was expressionless and said indifferently.

"Then just finish him off."

"... That man named Yusei Fudo."
