Chapter 875
"Won..."
The duel ended, the burning Nazca lines in the sky disappeared, and the huge spider portrait turned into nothing.
Dark Signer leader Rudger knelt on the ground, his eyes a little lost, as if he had been beaten to lose his luster.
After a long while, Leo was the first to cheer.
"Won!"
The faces of the others also showed joy, and a sense of relief.
Yes, it seems like they really won.
Since learning about the fate of each Signer, the battle with the Dark Signers has become the biggest stone in their hearts. Although the time of this battle is not long, the several Signers have all experienced life-and-death tempering during the period, and each person's duel was incomparably dangerous, and the one who might be defeated and die if they made a slight mistake was themselves.
Now seeing that the opponent's leader was indeed defeated, and the Dark Signer force finally retreated, the big stone in their hearts finally fell. At this time, looking at the straight back of Director Goodwin, a sense of security that had never been felt before rose from the heart.
Indeed too strong.
Even Yusei, the strongest among the Signers, secretly admired him in his heart.
Effect burn damage, in fact, Yusei himself also likes to play. Yusei is probably the generation of Yu-Gi-Oh protagonists with the most ink on the talent and specialty of 'tactical layout'. In the play, he has designed many one-hit kill burn-flow red trap combinations, and even appeared anime original infinite loops.
Maybe it's also because of the factors of the anime Riding Duel rules, Yusei himself is also a heavy lover of red traps.
And although Yusei also likes big monster fights like previous protagonists, he didn't show the 'soul player's obsession with using both sides' ace monsters to fight and decide the winner'. He uses red traps that directly pit monsters, banish, and bounce hands, and there are not a few self-sealing and burn damage ones.
In general, Yusei should belong to the type of balanced duelist who can perfectly control any style from frontal fighting to self-sealing and burn damage. And the style switching here doesn't mean changing decks, but that he can adjust the tactical type in time according to the different characteristics of the opponent in the same duel with the same deck, and his top-level Fate Power level as a Yu-generation seafood head is also fully displayed.
Precisely because of this, compared to Judai when he first met Fujiki You Xuan, Yusei felt more identified with this person's duel when he saw this 'Goodwin', because he indeed felt similarities with himself from the opponent's duel.
After all, the duel environment of 5D's as a whole was not as 'sunny' as GX.
"So that's it..."
Rudger, who was kneeling on the ground, had scattered eyes at this time, muttering in his mouth.
"Am I still... not qualified..."
Now it seems, perhaps it really is.
Back then, he was also one of the core members of the first perpetual motion machine research institute. But later he was eroded by the evil god and lost himself. At that time, he was shocked by the power of the evil god, thinking that it represented the peak power of the world.
But now the fake Lei Kesi Goodwin in front of him defeated himself easily, and the powerful Earthbound Immortal was regarded as nothing in the eyes of the opponent. Since a person with such power asserts this, it may indeed be that he is sitting in a well and watching the sky.
He thought he had come into contact with the most top-level power, not knowing that in the eyes of a truly strong person, a mere Earthbound Immortal might not be worth mentioning at all.
"Seventeen years ago, you single-handedly triggered the 'Zero Reverse', tearing Domino City to create the 'Satellite'."
Fujiki You Xuan said.
"Countless people died because of this, and countless families were broken because of this. Is this your so-called fate?"
As soon as this was said, the other Signers who were approaching were also shocked.
Zero Reverse triggered single-handedly?
The Zero Reverse seventeen years ago, the out-of-control of the first perpetual motion machine, were those not accidents!?
"It was you!?"
Yusei, who had always been calm and spoke little, had signs of emotional breakdown at this time.
"Did you create the Zero Reverse?"
Rudger knelt on the ground, raised his head weakly and glanced at him.
"Dr. Fudo's son, a nostalgic old friend..."
Rudger said leisurely.
"Yes, it was me."
Yusei was shocked.
He knew that his father died because of the Zero Reverse, and knew that the Satellite was born because of the Zero Reverse.
Jack, Crow, and almost all the companions he knew growing up in the Satellite, they all became orphans and became the dregs of the Satellite because of the Zero Reverse. If there was no Zero Reverse, they might all have had happy and complete families, and their lives would be completely different from now.
"Why!?"
Yusei was angry.
"Just because of you... because of the Zero Reverse, countless people's lives have been disturbed."
"If it weren't for my father's research, if it weren't for the perpetual motion machine, there wouldn't be a Zero Reverse, and if that were the case, everyone wouldn't have become orphans, and wouldn't have lost everything."
"But it was clearly like this, they clearly knew these, why did everyone never have any dissatisfaction with me, and could recognize me as a companion and show me a smile without saying anything?"
"You tell me how I should face them, how to compensate them! Rudger!"
Until now, this has always been the deepest darkness in Yusei's heart in his life. He felt guilty for all the companions around him and the people in the Satellite, feeling that all this had something to do with himself, and that he was an ominous child born carrying the curse of the perpetual motion machine.
Even Jack, who grew up with him, was surprised at this time: "Yusei, you..."
He never thought that Yusei had been carrying such thoughts all along.
Rudger was silent for a moment: "Is this the darkness in your heart, Yusei Fudo."
He smiled lightly and shook his head.
"We are just a pawn on a chessboard called 'fate'. The same was true when I pulled the trigger of the Zero Reverse back then, and the same is true for leading the Dark Signers to fight you now. Simply... no choice at all..."
Yes, it's all fate's teasing. The Zero Reverse was not his original intention, and Rudger back then had also resisted and fought against the erosion of the evil god. It's just that he failed in the end and cut off the arm that housed the power of the Dragon Mark.
At least before he completely lost his mind, he entrusted the broken arm with the Dragon Mark power to his younger brother Lei Kesi Goodwin, and let his brother gather the remaining Signers to stop himself no matter what in the future.
This is all he could do.
At least his last wish back then was realized. Now he has completely fallen into darkness and become a servant of the evil god, but the Signers have indeed successfully gathered, and the Dark Signer force has indeed been defeated.
It's just that...
He finally looked at Lei Kesi Goodwin in front of him with difficulty, and there was still regret in his heart.
This person who replaced Lei Kesi and stood here, who... is he?
That powerful existence that stuffed another soul into his body, what kind of person is it?
His life felt as if he had fallen into the center of a huge vortex, and all directions of the vortex were strong people from all sides, and he was unfortunately in the middle of the chessboard of the strong people's game.
The legendary Red Dragon, the evil god of the underworld, the mysterious organization called 'Iliaster' in the dark, the dark existence behind the scenes, and now there is this unknown strong man who replaced Lei Kesi...
Too many, there are too many strong people playing chess.
At this time, he deeply felt his own weakness, so weak that he was manipulated as a pawn among these strong forces, and spent such a miserable life.
Forget it, who are these people, what is the point now?
From now on, let them kill each other. He is tired, and finally can exit from this chessboard.
Rudger closed his eyes, and his body dissipated with the wind.
No answer was given to Yusei's questioning.
A moment of silence in the field.
Then Fujiki You Xuan looked at Yusei and suddenly said: "Do you know why your name is 'Yusei', Yusei Fudo?"
