Yu-Gi-Oh! The Pitfall Hero

I almost forgot about the important matter. Before meeting Hayato, Jaden Yuki was planning to go directly to Obelisk Blue to challenge Ryo Marufuji!

After saying that, Yuki Judai immediately ran towards the Obelisk Blue boys' dormitory.

"Um...aren't you tired?"

Yusei didn't choose to follow Yuki Jaden anymore, but instead crossed his arms and watched Hayato, who had been hanging in the tree since earlier.

For him, the scene before him seemed far more interesting than running around with the goofy Jaden Yuki in the duel.

"What is Judai planning to do?"

Upon hearing Jaden Yuki's unhesitating words, Hayato's face showed a big question mark.

"He's going to challenge Ryo Marufuji."

Yusei calmly answered Hayato's question.

"Wh...what did you say!?"

Hayato, who had repeated a year, had naturally heard of the name "Kaiser".

Yuki Judai, who had just enrolled in school, actually overestimated himself and went to challenge that man!

Upon hearing this shocking news, Hayato instinctively loosened his grip on the tree trunk.

And so, Hayato's koala-like, obese body quickly made intimate contact with the ground...

Yusei initially wanted to reach out and catch Hayato, but after thinking for 0.01 seconds, he decisively abandoned the idea and chose to avoid touching him.

"That's so mean... Yusei."

Hayato, lying on the ground, couldn't help but complain as he watched Yusei decisively avoid his body.

"Ha ha……"

Yu Xing smiled without saying a word.

Are you kidding me...? What the hell are you going to catch that for?!

If such a huge lump of flesh fell down, it would probably break an arm...

If she's a pretty girl who's light and agile, then I might consider it...

"Should we chase after them and see?"

After picking up the cards scattered on the ground and returning them to Hayato, who had gotten up, Yusei made a suggestion.

Jaden Yuki's current behavior is just like that of a young star who has just arrived in this world.

At the time, he was also thinking about whether he should just challenge Seto Kaiba.

However, after meeting Miss Yui and obtaining admission to the Duel Academy, he abandoned this plan.

Now that I think about it... ten years have passed since the first Yu-Gi-Oh! game, and he's almost thirty. As a very busy person, President Kaiba probably doesn't have time to duel with himself for the time being.

It's a real shame that I couldn't witness the majestic appearance of the Blue-Eyes White Dragon in person!

144 Tonight, Young Master You will be paying!

"Yes! I want to go!"

Hayato nodded vigorously at Yusei's suggestion.

Although somewhat shocked, he was indeed very interested in the duel between Jaden Yuki and Ryo Marufuji.

One is a dark horse who defeated Professor Kunonos in the entrance exam, and the other is "Kaiser" Marufuji Ryo, who reigns supreme as the No. 1 in Duel Academy.

What kind of sparks will fly between these two?

……

"piss off!"

"What are you dreaming about?"

Jaden Yuki, who charged headlong into the Obelisk Blue boys' dormitory with the intention of challenging Ryo Marufuji to a duel, was quickly grabbed by two people dressed in Obelisk Blue uniforms and thrown out of the dormitory.

"I've come to challenge Caesar to a duel!"

"What are you two strangers planning to do...?"

Sitting on the ground, Yuki Judai rubbed his aching buttocks and questioned the two people who had thrown him out.

The two students, who had been mocked as "passersby" by Yuki Judai, this Osiris Red guy, couldn't help but bulge veins on their foreheads.

"Have some self-awareness! You're a poor student from Osiris Red!"

Do you think we'd tolerate someone like you getting close to Caesar?

Two students dressed in Obelisk blue uniforms stood in front of Yuki Judai, looking down at him on the ground.

You could sense a strong disdain in their tone, just like the trio of Manjoume when you first met them.

In Oberliscre, people as easy to talk to as Asuka are a minority.

Most of them still consider themselves superior and look down on Osiris Red's poor students from the bottom of their hearts.

Yuki Judai wanted to say something more, but he was met with a bucket of cold water.

"Hum hum……"

"Ha ha ha ha……"

The two who splashed water on Yuki Jaden ignored him and turned back to their dorm.

"It must be very cold..."

Yusei and Hayato, who had just arrived, immediately saw this scene.

"...Let's leave here first."

Yusei glanced at the students watching the show in the Obelisk Blue dormitory, then reached out and helped Yuki Jaden up from the ground.

It's obviously impossible to run into a celebrity like Caesar so easily!

Given the current situation, it would be better to go back first.

……

"You really are being reckless..."

Hayato took a dry towel from the public bathroom and handed it to Yuki Jaden.

"Those arrogant guys... they're infuriating!" Jaden Yuki, who had followed the two back to Osiris Red, couldn't help but complain as he dried his hair with a towel.

Having spent a few days with Asuka, Jaden Yuki forgot the true nature of Obelisk Blue and his gang.

"Our plans have been interrupted twice in a row. What should we do? Should we give up?"

Yusei then asked Yuki Jaden a question.

"Who would give up so easily! I absolutely must duel Caesar!"

Jaden Yuki's eyes seemed to burn with fire. After experiencing setbacks, he not only did not choose to give up, but became even more determined!

If the previous duel proposal to Ryo Marufuji was just a proposal, then now Judai Yuki is determined to have a duel with Ryo Marufuji no matter what.

"Speaking of which... it seems that Xiang has returned to the dormitory..."

The group, chatting away, soon arrived at the dormitory entrance.

At that moment, Hayato suddenly spoke up.

"That's it..."

Upon opening the door, Yuki Judai immediately noticed the bulging blanket on Marufuji Sho's bed.

"Hey... Sho! If you keep going like this, you'll soon turn into Hayato!"

With his eyes half-closed, Yuki Judai walked somewhat helplessly toward Marufuji Sho.

"Pfft..."

Amused by Jaden Yuki's words, Yusei couldn't help but burst into laughter.

"You two! How rude of you!"

Hayato, who was innocently caught in the crossfire, couldn't help but start complaining.

Am I as lazy as you say?

Have it?

Okay... yes, there is...

"Hey!"

Yuki Judai walked to the bedside and yanked off Marufuji Sho's blanket.

However, there was no one under the blanket.

Marufuji Sho, who was originally curled up on the bed, was nowhere to be seen.

"What happened? Where's Xiang?"

Feeling somewhat puzzled, Jaden Yuki looked towards Yusei and Hayato for help.

"what is this!"

Hayato, who found a piece of paper on the table, screamed after reading what was written on it.

This piece of paper appears to be a farewell letter left by Marufuji Sho...

"?"

Yusei and Jaden Yuki exchanged a glance, then moved to either side of Hayato to examine the message left on the note.

[Dear Sir/Madam... Sho is leaving this island...]

Don't stop me! Everyone! My mind is made up!

Everyone has to say goodbye in life!
