Yu-Gi-Oh!: This is the real duel!

"I've heard there are scary people in prison..."

The calls of insects and moths faded into the distance, but the laughter of the crowd grew louder and louder.

"Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!"

"This guy will probably have to say goodbye to duels from now on!"

"However, given his personality, it's hard to say whether he might participate in an underground duel."

"By the way, will illegal immigrants be locked up in jail?"

"I don't know, it shouldn't be that bad, right?"

"Hahahaha! It doesn't matter anymore, anyway, that four-eyed guy is already scared to death! Hahahaha!"

After dealing with that scoundrel, everyone was in high spirits and strolled around the artificial lake in the park for a while. Dinosaur Ryuzaki knew that they didn't see eye to eye, so he chatted for a few minutes and then made an excuse to leave. Before leaving, he reminded everyone that there might be some park reward surprises in the drink bottles and snack bags.

Upon hearing about the chance to open card packs, Jonouchi's eyes lit up again: "Card packs?! There's such a good thing?! Hehe, Keihei, why don't you reveal some inside information~ Is it true that as long as you buy the coconut drink from Pot of Greed, you're guaranteed to get a card pack voucher?"

Kaiba Keihei shoved Jonouchi's head away in disgust: "No way! Jonouchi! But if we find out that you've let these things interfere with the game, you can forget about the prize money."

"No~ No!!" Jonouchi patted his chest to assure them. "Huh? Come to think of it, isn't the competition venue also at Hakuryu Park? We don't think we've seen it yet!"

Kaiba Guiping nodded in satisfaction: "Then I'll show everyone around the venue!"

As he spoke, he led the group toward a white arena shaped like a giant egg.

As night deepened, the entire arena appeared even brighter.

Even before the official competition has started, the dueling arena has become a stage for many children and duelists to have fun. In addition to standard one-on-one duels, KC Group has also designed AI opponents, so even if you come to the venue alone, you can duel with the system AI.

The crowd leisurely toured the arena, occasionally letting out a gasp of amazement.

As You Che's gaze swept around, he couldn't help but sincerely admire the building's magnificent design.

Just then, a slightly childish voice came from not far away. It was a cute little boy who slammed a monster card down from his hand and shouted out the card's name—"Sleeping Giant - Gudu"?!

In an instant, everyone's attention in the venue was drawn to it.

While Yu Che was filled with emotion, he was also secretly surprised. These days, it's not so easy to summon the Sleeping Giant. In addition, ordinary duelists don't have the cards "Sky Thunder" and "Immortal Class" in their hands. How did that child manage to do it?

The crowd unconsciously gathered around, eager to get a closer look at the Sleeping Giant, Gudu.

But when he arrived at the dueling platform, Youche, who was extremely familiar with the original work, suddenly froze.

That cute little boy with light pink hair is none other than Leon, the powerful and talented young duelist from the original story!

His opponent in the duel was a slender, elegant man with long hair and a suit.

The control is very clear.

This man is none other than Sieg Lloyd, the ultimate villain in the KC Grand Prix arc of the original work!

Chapter 261 Advanced Computer! Rapid Summoning—Five Divine Dragons!

"Wow, that's amazing! At such a young age, he can actually summon the Sleeping Giant, Gudu?!"

"Wait a minute?! Sleeping Giant Gudu?! Isn't that a God Card that only Duel King Yuche has?!"

"...You really are an out-of-touch guy..."

"Yes, it's no exaggeration to say that there are more Sleeping Giant Gudu than any other card right now..."

"What?! I absolutely have to get one for my collection!!"

Beneath the towering, majestic giant, a group of dueling enthusiasts were excitedly discussing something.

On the stage, the boy named "Leon" swung his arm and, with a loud shout, brought the duel to a complete end:

"Go! Sleeping Giant Gudu!! Attack the Goddess of Reversal!!"

"At the same time, the effect of Sleeping Giant Gooton is triggered: when this card battles an opponent's monster, its ATK becomes the opponent's monster's ATK plus 1000!!"

"Bang!"

A powerful punch was unleashed, shattering a faint silver-white moonlight. Faced with the Sleeping Giant Gudu's fierce attack, even the Goddess of Reversal couldn't withstand it despite using all her strength.

A staggering 1,000 points of combat damage were deducted from the pink-haired man's LP, and the moment the counter reached zero, the entertainment duel officially ended.

"Yay!! I won!!!" Leon cheered excitedly, but just as he was about to greet the man opposite him, he was stopped by an extremely distant and cold gaze.

"Slap slap slap ————————"

Sieg, exuding elegance and nobility, smiled and clapped his hands, congratulating him: "Really impressive! To actually be able to summon the Sleeping Giant Gudu using conventional methods, you're truly a gifted young man!"

Leon, who was originally excited, was as if he had been doused with cold water, and his enthusiastic smile became somewhat awkward and forced.

The crowd below the stage didn't seem to notice this detail; they were all gathered around the battle records, trying to figure out how Leon had managed to do it.

Only You Che was carefully observing the expressions of the two men.

"So... the relationship between these two isn't much different from the original story..." You Che stroked his chin thoughtfully.

In the original DM story, Leon and Sieg are brothers who both possess extremely high dueling skills. However, the difference lies in their approaches: the simple-minded Leon treats dueling as his greatest passion, while Sieg, who received an elite education from a young age, uses dueling as a tool for profit.

In the story, in order to destroy the KC Group and seize the game market from Seto Kaiba, Sieg personally participated in the KC Grand Prix and implanted a virus into the competition system. However, Seto Kaiba discovered it in time and stopped him.

Just when everyone thought the farce was over and the match would proceed as normal, Leon, Sieg's brother, plunged the dueling world into crisis once again with a modified commemorative card—Golden Palace of Rapids...

In Zieg's plan, he and Leon must hide their brotherly relationship from the outside world. Only in this way can Leon, their trump card, come into play at a crucial moment.

Perhaps this is why Leon tried to interact with Sieg enthusiastically, but was coldly rejected?

"But... why did Zieg arrive at the competition venue so early?" You Che frowned slightly, not quite understanding the young master's actions.

"Game!! Look, this kid is really skilled!!" Jonouchi exclaimed, "This special combo built with ordinary monsters is so compatible with Sleeping Giant Gudu?! He summoned Sleeping Giant Gudu in just four turns!!"

Wang Yang nodded, looking at the battle records and smiling approvingly: "Yes. In this version, Sleeping Giant Gudu is triggered based on the number of turns. The combination of high defense and a weak-but-weak tactic, along with the time leap and card recycling system, is indeed perfect."

"Yugi?! Is that Yugi Muto who fought to a draw with Duel King Yugi in the Duel Kingdom tournament?!"

The two's conversation in the crowd immediately attracted the attention of all the children around them. As soon as they heard the name "Yugi Muto," they gathered around just like they had when they first gathered around the dueling ring.

"Huh?! It really is Yugi Muto!!"

"Hey!! Over here!! There's another Duel King Yugi here!!!"

Enthusiastic dueling enthusiasts flocked over, and even some tourists who were no longer in the arena came after hearing the news.

Since transmigrating to this world, although Yu Che's achievements in dueling have been steadily improving, this was the first time he had encountered such a "fan meeting". He was a little flustered and couldn't help but blush. However, after dealing with it for a while, he quickly got used to it and started signing autographs and taking photos with everyone.

Not long after, a little boy approached Yugi with a deck of cards.

"Hey gamer, can you take a look at my deck?!"

The enthusiastic King Yu naturally wouldn't refuse such a request. He carefully took the child's deck and looked at it seriously. But he soon realized that there seemed to be no need to look at it seriously at all, because the child's deck didn't have any Spell/Trap Cards at all, and was almost entirely composed of Dragon-type Normal Monsters.

Jonouchi stood there, drooling with envy, speechless.

Dragons are arguably the most expensive monsters on the market right now. This kid not only has more than forty Dragon cards, many of which are extremely rare foil cards. Don't let his young age fool you; he's a powerful whale (a player who spends a lot of money on the game).

Wang Yang flipped through the entire deck, then said in confusion, "Huh? There aren't any spell or trap cards in your deck?"

The child nodded innocently: "Yes! Because I really like dragon monsters, so my deck is full of those kinds of cards."

Wang Yang's gaze finally settled on one of the monsters called Soul Dragon, then he took a card from his pocket and handed it to the child with a smile: "Your deck is full of your favorite monsters. It seems you really love your deck~"

"In that case, I'll give you this card."

"With this card, your deck will be much stronger!"

Amidst the envious gazes of the children, King Yu gently handed over a Continuous Magic Card.

In an instant, exclamations of surprise, jealousy, and envy rose and fell.

After excitedly accepting the gift from the king, the child inserted the card into his deck and ran back to the dueling ring to battle the AI.

This familiar scene reminded You Che of something. He looked around and glanced at Zig, who was leisurely resting not far away. Sure enough, Zig had a smile on his face as if he were watching a good show.

Oops……

Could this be the scene from the original story?!

but……

How can I get everyone evacuated from here?!

If I do that, will it alert Sieg and cause him to change his plans at the last minute?!

Youche began to plan in his mind.

"Brother Youche!!!"

Suddenly, several more children ran over, interrupting Youche's thoughts.

"Ah, hahaha, do you want autographs or photos?" You Che could only continue to pretend that nothing was wrong, smiling and lowering his head.

One of the kids grinned and said smugly, "What? Brother Yuche, you don't recognize me anymore now that you've become the Duel King? I'm the one who borrowed your deck!!"

You Che was stunned for a moment, and then finally remembered that the boy in front of him was the one he had met when he first transmigrated.

When I first arrived, I was feeling lost. It was this child who picked up the Armored Dragon from the ground and handed it to me. Later, in order to help him get revenge, I even borrowed cards from him and his friends to temporarily build a deck to duel the dinosaur Ryuzaki.

Looking back now, although only a few months have passed, it feels like a lifetime ago.

"Hahahaha! I remember now!" You Che laughed. "You're Yu Tai's younger brother, right? Before the Duel Kingdom finals, you even secretly came over to cheer me on~"

"Hehe! That's right! It's me!!" The child looked smug, clearly these memories were the most honorable things he had ever experienced growing up.

While laughing and interacting with the children, Yu Che looked towards the gate in the distance of the arena, where he saw Kajiki Ryota, the former third-place winner of the National Duelist Tournament, standing there with a helpless smile.

Also.

Although Kajiki Ryota is also a strong duelist, the title of Duel King is simply too dazzling.

It's not entirely incomprehensible that children at this age like to idolize others, so it's understandable that they might admire someone else instead of their own brother.

"Boom!"

Kajiki Ryota, who was standing at a distance, waved a few times. He was about to walk over when a sudden loud noise came from behind him, startling him.

The crowd in the arena was startled and looked in the direction of the sound, only to find that the arena gates were tightly shut!

"Sizzle sizzle ——————————"

Several electrical hissing sounds rang out, and the lights in the arena flickered a few times before going out one by one, leaving only the overhead light on one of the dueling platforms still lit.
