Yu-Gi-Oh!: Holding Ruri Kurosaki, I'm invincible!

Yu Ming held the pages of "The Complete Collection of NO" in his hands, his fingertips repeatedly rubbing the words "Galaxy Eye Photon Dragon" under his breath, his brows furrowed in worry.

If you want to break through your strength by relying on the Dragon Emperor, you can't avoid Kaito Amagi.

If you want to follow the path of Lightwave Dragon, it's still Kaito's signature deck.

He searched through the entire list of duelists in the library, but still couldn't find Kaito's contact information.

In the end, he could only close the book in frustration, thinking to himself: when I encounter Kaito in the future, I must find a way to get a Galaxy Eyes card.

He remembered that Kaito in ARC-V didn't only have one Light Wave Dragon card.

If you can build good relationships, there may still be opportunities.

As he stepped out of the library, a cool evening breeze brushed against his neck, and You Ming realized that the sky was overcast and looked like it was about to rain.

He took out his phone to see if Uncle Zecheng had sent a message, but a chat window with Ruri Kurosaki popped up on the screen first.

Just one simple word: "Want to come?"

Upon seeing those words, You Ming stopped in his tracks. Elder Jin Sen's words suddenly boomed in his ears: "Stay away from the Kurosaki family, and keep your distance from Kurosaki Ruri!"

Before he transmigrated, he was a seasoned veteran in the workplace, so how could he not understand the implied meaning in his words?

Something must have happened to the Kurosaki family, and it must be something serious.

As a direct descendant of the Kurosaki family, Kurosaki Ruri was born and bound to the family's war machine, with no way to escape.

For him to approach at this moment would be tantamount to jumping into a whirlpool.

Moreover, he remembered the ending of the anime, in which only Kurosaki Ruri and Kurosaki Hayato remained in the Kurosaki family.

It is clear that they have suffered considerable losses.

Once you're in this mess, it's hard to get out.

Two paths lay clearly before them: either completely sever ties with Ruri Kurosaki and watch her be swept up in the family turmoil, facing an unknown fate.

We must either rush to Kurosaki's house, adapt to the situation, and do everything in our power to protect her.

You Ming leaned against a pillar in the library, tapping his phone case with his fingers.

But I already have the answer in my heart.

He chuckled and punched his fist in the palm: "Hey Kurosaki, you've had your meal! Let's go mooch off this guy!"

What's there to hesitate about?

Ruri Kurosaki is such a blockhead, her personality is as straightforward as a string.

If he doesn't go, who knows what stupid things those old foxes in the family might drag him into doing.

Besides, she'll need to give herself red envelopes in the future, so this "mobile treasury" can't be allowed to fall into disrepair.

Most importantly, in the anime, both she and Kurosaki Hayabusa survived.

This suggests that she may not be implicated in this incident.

Even if there are any entanglements, with his strength, protecting her alone is more than enough.

He hailed a taxi, gave the address of the Kurosaki family's villa area, drove through the bustling city, and entered a villa area surrounded by dense forest.

You Ming sent Kurosaki Ruri a message saying "Arrived".

In less than half a minute, a slender figure strode quickly from the direction of the main villa.

Ruri Kurosaki was dressed in a pure white dueling outfit, the close-fitting fabric outlining her slender yet upright figure.

Her cheeks were flushed a light pink, and even the tips of her ears were red, clearly indicating that she was practicing a duel.

She was interrupted by his message.

Her fingers were still unconsciously gripping the edge of the duel disk.

"You have so many servants, why don't you just have them show you the way? Why do you have to come all the way here yourself?"

You Ming's gaze swept over the surrounding bridges and streams, and he couldn't help but click his tongue in amazement: Damn, rich people are just different.

This isn't a villa; it's a castle built in the forest.

Ruri Kurosaki walked up to him, stopped, and looked up at him: "Friend."

Just two words, yet they warmed You Ming's heart slightly.

He could see the thought in her eyes—because they were friends, he had to come to pick her up in person; it wouldn't be proper for someone else to do it.

You Ming smiled and followed her, saying, "Thank you for your help."

Ruri Kurosaki didn't say anything more, but her steps were a little lighter than before.

The sound of footsteps landing on the ground carried a subtle, almost imperceptible lightness.

The two walked through the courtyard and into a villa that had been converted into a dueling arena.

The temperature inside the gym was a few degrees warmer than outside, and various training equipment was placed around the room, with a row of dumbbell racks in the corner.

You Ming took off his jacket and draped it over his arm, revealing a short-sleeved shirt underneath.

"The weather has been really strange lately. It was so hot a few days ago that I was sweating, but now the temperature has dropped sharply and it looks like it's going to rain soon."

As You Ming casually spoke, he walked to the dumbbell area and picked up two unremarkable dumbbells.

I wanted to stretch my muscles, but as soon as I grabbed it, my arm suddenly felt heavy and I almost lost my grip.

"These dumbbells look ordinary, so why are they so heavy?"

You Ming raised an eyebrow, clearly feeling an invisible force suppressing the flow of qi and blood within his body, making even raising his hand difficult.

"This was made using special star iron from the Hyperdimensional Dimension."

Ruri Kurosaki stepped forward and explained, "During training, the natural flow of qi and blood within the body is suppressed. Long-term use can force out the potential of qi and blood within the body, allowing qi and blood to circulate faster, thus better activating the body during duels."

This allows for faster blood and qi circulation, enabling better activation of the body during combat.

You Ming's eyes lit up, and he became instantly interested: Goodness, isn't this the same principle as the super weightless suit in "Dragon Ball"?

The world of Yu-Gi-Oh! is very mysterious. The duels here seem to be about deck building, but in essence, they are also about physical strength and mental power.

There's a special concept here called "Elves".

To bear the power of the spirits, one also needs sufficient physical strength.

Moreover, A5's duels are action-based, and the physical demands on the characters are self-evident.

This thing is simply a magic weapon for forging the body!

"If you like it, I'll give it to you." Kurosaki Ruri said without thinking, seeing the light in his eyes.

You Ming quickly waved his hand to refuse: "No, no, no, how can I accept something so valuable? This dumbbell must be worth a fortune."

"Not expensive." Ruri Kurosaki shook her head, her face straightforward. "The market price is 2000 yen."

"Oh, that's really not expensive. The Star Iron dumbbells that can accelerate blood circulation are only 2000 yen. That's such a good deal..."

Yu Ming was speaking when he suddenly realized something, his smile froze, and he asked, "Wait, the 2000 yen you mentioned, is it... is it sold by the piece?"

Ruri Kurosaki shook her head again, her tone flat: "By weight."

"By the pound..."

These three words exploded in You Ming's ears like thunder, echoing repeatedly.

His brain worked at lightning speed, instantly calculating the price: 2000 yen per kilogram. According to the label, each of the two dumbbells in his hand weighed 40 kilograms, so the two of them would weigh 80 kilograms.

That's 160 million yen!

Looking at the dumbbells in his hands, You Ming felt as if he were holding two mountains of gold.

His hands were trembling. After a long silence, he suddenly cried out in anguish to Ruri Kurosaki:

"I'll fight you rich people to the death! We're all duelists, so why is there such a huge difference in skill level?!"

Ruri Kurosaki looked at his money-grubbing appearance, a faint smile flashing in her eyes.

So fast it was almost impossible to catch her; she asked softly, "Do you really like money?"
