Yu-Gi-Oh!: Worldwide Mix, the Ultimate Necromancer Duel

Chapter 77 The Undefeated Caesar! Yu Chen VS Marufuji Ryo!!

As You Chen stepped into the castle hall, he realized that he was not the first person to arrive.

The dome is high and wide, the candlelight flickers, and the ancient murals are faintly visible in the dim light.

Several duelists were already standing in the hall, scattered in twos and threes in the corners.

He even saw several familiar faces.

Yugi Muto stood beside a stone pillar, and his eyes lit up slightly when he saw him enter.

Marufuji Ryo leaned against the opposite wall, arms crossed, expressionless, as always, keeping to himself. He glanced at Yu Chen but said nothing.

There were a few unfamiliar people crouching in the corner, who looked like survivors who had fought their way out of the battle royale.

"Wandering Dust Lord!"

Yugi Muto walked over quickly, a gentle smile on his face.

"I knew you could get here."

You Chen looked at him, and his heart skipped a beat.

Is this going to be a duel?

The last person he wants to touch right now is Yugi Muto. That guy is the ancestor of god-tier draws, the pioneer of card printing; he could easily mess things up.

At a crucial moment, he'll pull out a card you've never seen before and pull off a miraculous comeback.

Fortunately, Yugi Muto just smiled and didn't continue.

"Same here! I was still a step slower than you."

You Chen secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

He would never go out of his way to get close to his cousin unless she took the initiative.

Marufuji Ryo remained leaning against the wall, silent, like a silent sculpture.

The atmosphere was somewhat awkward.

Just then, a light suddenly shone on the wall directly in front of the castle hall.

A giant screen slowly appeared.

On the screen, Pegasus's mocking face appeared before everyone. He crossed his legs, swirled a glass of red wine in his hand, and wore his signature mysterious smile.

"WelI—!"

His voice was languid and drawn out, echoing in the empty hall.

"Welcome to the castle."

He took a sip of red wine, his gaze sweeping across everyone present through the screen.

"Next, I will match you with opponents."

You Chen frowned.

Matching opponents?

Isn't this just randomly selecting people to fight?

On the screen, Pegasus glanced down at the list in his hand, his smile widening.

"Wandering Dust Boy"

'

He looked up, a hint of amusement flashing in his eyes.

"Who is your opponent in this duel?"

He paused, as if enjoying the suspense of the moment.

"Marufuji Ryo!"

You Chen's brows furrowed even deeper.

Nima.

How did I suddenly end up facing Ryo Marufuji?

Caesar! The pinnacle of Duel Academy, known as "Invincible Caesar," his strength is unwavering. Pegasus, that old fox, really loves to stir things up.

But since things had already come to this point, neither of them could refuse.

Marufuji Ryo turned his head to look at Yu Chen.

A hint of expression finally appeared on that usually stern face.

"Alright."

His voice was calm, yet it carried an undeniable air of authority.

"Perfect timing, let me see your strength."

He paused.

"Let's also consider this the prelude to our academy's duel."

You Chen understood.

Marufuji Ryo meant that the two of them were bound to clash sooner or later. Since they'd run into each other today, they might as well have a friendly scout beforehand, as a warm-up.

"Just what I wanted!"

You Chen remained calm, and with a flick of his wrist, the duel disk unfolded.

The deck is inserted, and it locks in with a click.

"Come on—the duel begins! DUEL!"

The two shouted at the same time, and the duel disks were activated in sync. Metal chains popped out from both sides of the disks, colliding, entangled, and locked in mid-air.

A forced duel is hereby established.

Yugi Muto's interest was immediately piqued.

He stepped aside, his gaze sweeping back and forth between the two men.

The two before us are a dark horse who has never lost since entering the academy and boasts an outstanding record, and a legend known as "Caesar" who sits firmly at the top of the academy. It's really hard to say who is stronger.

He stared intently, afraid of missing a single detail.

A coin is tossed into the air, flips, and falls.

front!

You Chen goes first!

"first-

—

You Chen drew a card and scanned his hand with his eyes.

"I Normal Summon—[Mech Skeleton]—from my hand!"

The moment the card was struck, a burst of light erupted in front of him.

An orange mech soldier glided out from the light. Its body was slender and long, like a walking metal skeleton, with intricate mechanical structures exposed at the joints of its limbs.

[Mecha Mechanical Skeleton]

Earth Attribute/Four-Star/Mechanical Race/Alliance Attack Power: 1800

"Activate effect!"

You Chen raised his hand.

"When this card is successfully summoned: You can activate this effect. Add 1 'Machine' monster from your Deck to your hand, except 'Machine Skeleton'."

He drew his deck, quickly scanned it, and took out a card.

"I choose to add [Mech Fortress] to my hand."

The card was put into his hand.

"then--

'

He drew another card and slapped it onto the duel disk.

"Activate the Spell Card from your hand—[Reorganization of the Mech Force]!"

The moment the card was flipped over, the area was illuminated. Countless phantom images of mech units appeared, tanks, fighter jets, and armored vehicles, densely packed together, as if the place had transformed into a large-scale military battlefield.

This card can activate 1 of the following effects.

You Chen's voice was neither hurried nor slow.

"Discard 1 card from your hand, and add 2 'Machine' monsters from your Deck to your hand."

He chose a card from his hand and threw it into the graveyard.

"I choose to discard one card, then E"

'

He drew his deck and selected two cards.

Add two "Mech" monsters to your hand.

My hand is full again.

Ryo Marufuji stood opposite him, his brows slightly furrowed.

Youchen's mech deck is already quite mature.

The retrieval, filtering, and stacking processes are all completed in one smooth, seamless process.

But it's not over yet.

"Not only that."

You Chen's voice rang out again.

He held up one of the cards in his hand.

"I also need to activate the effect of [Mech Fortress] from my hand!"

His voice rose a few decibels.

"This card can be Special Summoned from your hand or Graveyard by discarding Machine-Type monsters whose total Level is 8 or higher!"

He chose two cards from his hand.

"Just throw both [Mech Fortress] cards into the graveyard!"

Swish—two cards were sent to the grave.

"Then"

He waved his hand.

"Revive the [Mech Fortress] from the graveyard!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the ground in front of You Chen suddenly cracked.

The ground cracked open, and a deafening rumble came from underground. A colossal machine slowly rose from the cracks—a massive fortress forged from steel, with thick armor, massive cannons, and tracks grinding against the ground, producing a piercing metallic scraping sound.

Mech Fortress

Earth/Seven Stars/Mechanical race attack power: 2500

The dark muzzle of the cannon was aimed at Marufuji Ryo on the other side.

A sense of oppression washed over me.

"It's not over yet!"

You Chen's movements became faster and faster.

He drew another card from his hand.

"I'm throwing the [Mech Colonel] into the graveyard!"

The card fell into the graveyard.

"Continue with Yashu's Summoning—the second [Mech Fortress] from the Graveyard!"

The ground cracked again.

Another [Mech Fortress] rose from the ground, standing side by side with the first one. The two steel behemoths had their cannons pointed in the same direction.

Thus, on Youchen's field—

[Mecha Mechanical Frame], Attack Power 1800.

[Mech Fortress] x2, Attack Power 2500.

Three monsters stood side by side.

The muzzles of cannons were like a forest.

You Chen withdrew his hand, looked at Marufuji Ryo, who was still expressionless, and smiled slightly.

"Round over."

His voice was calm, but it sounded exceptionally clear in the empty hall of the fortress.

Marufuji Ryo remained leaning against the wall, his arms crossed.

But his eyes were different now.
