Yu-Gi-Oh! The Pitfall Hero

Daichi Misawa, who had previously joined the Society of Light, was also among this group.

Even though he didn't belong to any group, he still couldn't gain recognition from others after joining.

Therefore, he has always been eager to find other opportunities to make a name for himself.

The GX conference being held at this moment perfectly met his expectations.

This is a great opportunity for everyone to witness the strength of Misawa Daichi!

With this thought in mind, Misawa Daichi, lost in the crowd, silently clenched his fist.

"Lord Saiou, please rest assured that our members of the Society of Light will collect a large number of badges."

"...This is a golden opportunity to make the Society of Light famous throughout the world!"

Standing at the very front of the crowd alongside Asuka, Manjoume, as a member of the leadership, bowed slightly to Saiou before him, expressing his resolve.

In his view, even if outsiders participate in this competition held on the island, the ultimate winners will inevitably be those of the Society of Light.

Those so-called professional duelists are no match for Lord Saiō.

Even they could not change their predetermined fate of defeat.

"Ah... yeah, I see. I'm looking forward to your activities."

He waved dismissively at Manjōmu, and the expression on Saiō's face at that moment showed that he was thinking about something.

Judging from his attitude, he didn't seem to care much about the badge.

After saying that, he got up and left for the Duel Academy headquarters, leaving Manjoume and Asuka, who were looking puzzled, behind.

Everyone: "...?"

Seeing the strange behavior of the King of the West, everyone couldn't help but show a look of doubt on their faces.

Asuka: "I feel like Lord Saiou isn't as domineering as he usually is today."

Manjou: "Perhaps, but in any case! Our primary task now is to turn this academy, and even the world, white. As for other things, they are not things we should consider right now."

After the figure of the Prince of Sai disappeared, Manjoume turned around and looked at the crowd behind him, saying, "Listen up, everyone! You all need to keep winning and collect a lot of badges!"

"Use this method to prove your strength to Lord Sai-ō!"

_.【..

"Oh!!!"

"Lord Saiō, Lord Manjōme, please entrust them to us with peace of mind!"

"Hmph! It's time to let the rest of those guys taste fear!"

Responding to this lofty goal were raised arms and a tidal wave of shouts.

Those who were affected by the Light of Destruction and joined the Society of Light have a fanatical obsession and devotion to Saiou.

Therefore, even without supervision, they will spare no effort to fulfill their mission in the upcoming duel.

"Hahahaha!!! Great! Very energetic!!!"

Nodding in satisfaction, Wan Zhangmu immediately began to arrange the detailed work.

While he was doing this, Saiou had already quickly arrived at the Duel Academy and headed to the principal's office.

……

Principal's room.

The automatic door, equipped with sensors, opened automatically upon the arrival of the Prince of Zhai.

What appeared before Yu Zhaiwang was the figure of Principal Samejima, who was surrounded by various reports and dealing with matters related to the competition.

"Hmm? You are... Saiō Takuma, right?"

Raising his head to look in the direction of the newcomer, Principal Samejima stopped what he was doing and asked, "What brings you here?"

"Yes, Principal Samejima, you've really worked hard to organize the GX competition."

Nodding politely, Zhai Wang Zhuomo then continued with a smile, "I came here to inquire about the matter I contacted you about, regarding having someone come here."

"Ah, the person you're talking about is a prince from a small country. Inviting him here is indeed not an easy task..."

King of the West: "..."

At this point, Principal Samejima frowned, looking somewhat troubled.

Seeing this reaction, the Prince of Zhai subconsciously narrowed his eyes and frowned.

"...However, after I told him that the duelist who possessed the legendary D-HERO card, which controls the power of the whole world, would also participate in this tournament, he immediately changed his mind and accepted my invitation."

"Ah……"

The tone shifted abruptly, and Principal Samejima uttered words that were completely different from his previous reaction.

Upon hearing this, Prince Zhai smiled knowingly and slowly relaxed his brow.

……

Above the clouds, a private plane is flying rapidly through the stratosphere.

Its destination was the small island in the sea where the Duel Academy was located.

Inside the private jet, which was emblazoned with the "World Serpent" design, the prince, who had been invited by Principal Samejima, was also playing with the badge in his hand with an expectant expression.

Drawn to the ultimate D card, he yearns to have a proper match with the world champion and determine the true victor.

"...The GX tournament, is it? I wonder how powerful the duelists will be."

看着身边的秘书和保镖，王子的脸上露五~加&１#0=>1@>7+4&$5&*9一~零#*①%{⑦%④~$五&酒||④|⑨*⑧$>4>9{=8*一@七~%八+八*+零{七>|n*{j六{|一出了玩味的笑容。

Although he spoke of anticipation and such, his tone carried a distinct air of contempt.

Clearly, with some kind of advantage, he didn't take those so-called powerful duelists seriously.

"Oh ho ho ho... How could anyone possibly be able to contend with Prince Aukin of the Serpent God Kingdom!"

"Yes, that's right. No matter who challenges me, I will send them on their way with an invincible one-hit kill! No one can survive this move!"

Prince Auchin, quite pleased with his secretary's compliments, put away the badge and lay down again in a more comfortable position.

As his body sank into the soft sofa, his thoughts began to wander uncontrollably.

Hmph hmph hmph~~~

Unfortunately, I was born too late and missed the golden age of duels.

Otherwise, the one who would be the Duel King now wouldn't be Yugi Muto, but me, Prince Okin!

Yugi Muto, Seto Kaiba, Malik Ishtar... these old-time celebrities with only empty names have long been abandoned by the times!

Fate may have taken away ten years of my life, but it cannot take away the innate strength I possess!

Now is the time for me, Aukin, to become famous throughout the world!

"...Hahahahaha!!!"

Imagining the upcoming scene of him showing off and getting humiliated, Prince Aujin couldn't help but let out a smug laugh.

……

"...I summon [Jetman] in Attack Position. End of turn!"

In front of the Osiris Red Dormitory, Marufuji Sho, who had been trying to sneak away, was finally cornered at the dormitory entrance by the crowd.

Since he couldn't refuse the first challenge of the day, he had no choice but to accept the challenge and engage in a duel.

Fortunately, Kenzan, who wasn't interested in the chase, was drawn away by others along the way.

At this moment, Marufuji Sho's opponent is a fellow Osiris Red Passerby who is wearing the same uniform as him.

In terms of strength, both were equally bad, falling into the category of the pot calling the kettle black. Therefore, the duel quickly became a strange tug-of-war.

The opponent summoned a monster with 2000 attack power and then ended their turn.

Next, when it was Marufuji Sho's turn, Marufuji Sho looked at the [Magic Cylinder] in his hand, smiled slyly, and summoned the [Jetman] monster with 1200 attack power from his hand.

The effect of [Jetman] is that when attacked by an opponent's monster, you can activate a Trap Card from your hand.

As soon as the opponent launches an attack, Marufuji Sho will immediately activate the [Magic Cylinder], reflecting the damage back at the ineffective attacker!

"Huh? Marufuji Sho-senpai? Why did you specifically summon a monster with 1200 ATK in Attack Position? Wouldn't Defense Position prevent battle damage?"

The junior student crossed his arms and laughed, saying, "Was it because you were nervous that you made a mistake? Hahaha... I won't let this opportunity slip by!"

"Hmph! Say what you want! Round over."

Provoked by the other party's words, Marufuji Sho forcibly suppressed the anger rising in his heart.

You foolish first-year student! Let me, your senior, teach you the true meaning of dueling!

A duel isn't something you can win just by attacking; you also need brains. You need to think, you know?

You think you're invincible just because you have high attack power? How naive!

"It's my turn, draw a card!"

Drawing a new card from his deck, the junior student then Tributed the monsters on the field for a Tribute Summon: "I Tribute my monsters to Tribute Summon [Junko - Psychic Shocker] (ATK: 2400)!"

Marufuji Sho: "What... a cyborg???"

【Junkman - Psychic Shocker】This card is the bane of trap cards, as it can negate the activation and effects of all trap cards on the field. After the opponent summons this monster, Marufuji Sho's tactics will naturally break down without a fight.

Although [Magic Cylinder] is in Marufuji Sho's hand, it is also placed on the field when activated, and therefore can be affected by the effects of the Android.

In this sense, high attack power is indeed impressive...

"Battle has begun! [Android - Psycho-Shocker] attacks [Jet Man], Psycho-Shock Strike!!!"

With his hands gathered at his chest, the [Homunculus - Psychic Shocker] casually conjured a red ball of electricity the size of a watermelon.

With its arms outstretched, it threw the electric ball directly towards the [Jetman].

With a loud explosion, Marufuji Sho's monster was destroyed, and he himself was blown away by the blast's force, landing hard on his backside...

"【Homunculus - Psychic Shocker】can seal trap cards... How come I didn't think of that..."
