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

Chapter 310 Seto Kaiba's Intervention! Fierce Battle Against Bakura!

"Go!! Diaband!!"

"Deliver the final blow to the Pharaoh!!"

"Explosive Gale Bullet of Destruction!!!"

"boom------------------"

In the dimly lit basement, Bakura's rampaging roar echoed as three afterimages of Diaband simultaneously unleashed their most powerful attack skills. That despairing white light reappeared, and amidst the deafening booms, the terrifying offensive blasted towards Yugi!

Faced with this fatal blow, Wang Yang had no choice but to use the special item he had obtained earlier. On the sand table, he revealed the golden mask in his hand, while in the basement, a powerful golden light shone, and a guardian deity radiating powerful energy appeared out of thin air, completely blocking the three attacks!

"Hassan!!!"

Hassan was the guardian deity of the pharaohs throughout history. As a god, his power was no less than that of a mortal kingdom. Therefore, even though Bakura destroyed the pharaoh's statue, it had no effect on his power.

"Boom!!!!!!!!!"

Hassan crossed his arms, his entire body radiating energy as a solid shield. The three explosive gusts that struck him vanished as if they had sunk into the sea.

Bakula roared menacingly, "You nuisance!!"

"But once you combine Diaband's power, there's no way you can stop him!!"

"Diaband!! Dispel clone form!! Use your strongest attack to crush the Pharaoh!!"

"Explosive Gale Bullet of Destruction!!!"

"Boom!"

The terrifying attack came again, but this time Hassan blocked it with all his might, and everyone who hid behind him was not harmed at all.

“Tsk…” Bakula said viciously, “Three thousand years ago, this wretched thing didn’t exist. I really underestimated its power!”

"However, heh heh, Pharaoh, do you really think this dragging on will be to your advantage?"

"Indeed, your souls are slowly recovering, but my plan continues to move forward!!"

"Soon, I'll obtain the second Millennium Item—the Millennium Key!!!"

Both the priest Mahad and Youche were greatly alarmed.

How can it be? !

The Millennium Key and its guardian priest, Shada, should both be in the royal city. How could Bakura have taken them?!

"Hehehe~" Bakula laughed contemptuously, "You still don't believe me, do you?"

"I noticed that one of the millennium artifacts was missing when you came charging in with such ferocity!"

"Therefore, from the very beginning, I gave orders to my clone hidden in the Valley of the King's Long Sleep, instructing him to first destroy the Pharaoh's statue, and then go to the royal city to seize the Millennium Key!!"

"Now that he has arrived in the royal city, your weak Priest Xia Da has no chance of stopping him!"

"What did you say? The Valley of the Royal Slumber?!" Wang Yang's face paled. "That's where my partner is!!"

Bakula grinned maliciously: "That's right, the vessel is fighting desperately to reclaim your name, but judging from the current situation, he should die before you~ Hahahahahahaha!!"

Wang Yang clenched his fists.

On the sand table, he looked at Yugi Muto, who was fighting a hard battle.

At this moment, he is engaged in a fierce duel with Bakura's clone!

Yugi believes in the power of his partner; he is certain that Yugi Muto will defeat Bakura and reclaim his title as king!

but……

What about the Millennium Key?!

Wang Yang noticed that another clone of Bakula had entered the royal city and was rushing towards Xia Da's location.

Xia Da's fighting strength isn't particularly strong. If Bakula really succeeds, everything will be terrible!

Suddenly, Yugi spotted Seto Kaiba wandering through the royal city. He pinned all his remaining hopes on Seto Kaiba; if he could intervene, perhaps he could stop Bakura's actions...

"Well……"

Seto Kaiba opened his eyes in a daze, only to find that everything around him had transformed into Egypt three thousand years ago. He looked around with a cold gaze.

"Is this... the memory world of the game?"

"Although I don't know what Bakura's purpose was in luring me here, the world has already undergone some drastic changes since I arrived..."

"I'm afraid it's related to this world of memories..."

The moment Bakura and Yugi began this dark game, the world was shrouded in endless darkness, and terrifying natural disasters such as earthquakes, tsunamis, and volcanic eruptions occurred all at once.

If this duel drags on, or ends in Bakura's victory, then the Great Demon King Zorc can still fulfill his three-thousand-year-old wish and turn the entire world into a terrible hell!

Seto Kaiba didn't hesitate for long. He glanced at the tall palace in the distance, then strode quickly through the streets to get there.

He knew that another game was intricately connected to the Pharaoh.

Since it's a pharaoh, the probability of finding him in the palace is much higher!

Seto Kaiba walked step by step to the gate of the palace. When the two guards saw that the newcomer was dressed so strangely, they immediately blocked him with their spears. But when they saw Seto Kaiba's face, they were shocked and hurriedly made way for him.

"Lord Set?! What brings you back?"

Seto Kaiba frowned. He didn't know why these guards recognized him (Seto and Seito sound the same), but he didn't care. The important thing right now was to find another game.

Not long after Seto Kaiba entered the royal city, Bakura's clone, who had been hiding in the shadows, emerged with a cold laugh. Taking advantage of the two guards' questioning glances at Seto Kaiba, he killed them and then followed him in...

In the vast palace, only one priest remained—Shada—who closed his eyes and silently prayed for the king's victory.

He heard footsteps and opened his eyes alertly, exclaiming, "Lord Seth?! You...that outfit...How is the Pharaoh? Why did you come back alone?!"

Seto Kaiba couldn't answer those questions, but he didn't intend to explain. He simply asked, "Where is the Pharaoh now?"

Priest Shada sensed something was amiss. He suspected that the strange Seth before him was Bakura in disguise using some evil magic. Just as he was about to reveal the Holy Duel Disk to summon a monster, he suddenly saw a familiar figure walking behind Seth—it was none other than the Thief King, Bakura!

"Tsk!!" Priest Xia Da instinctively stepped back and summoned his strongest monster. "You, you really are a spy!!"

"Bakura!!"

"I will absolutely not hand over the Millennium Artifact to you!!"

Seto Kaiba frowned and turned around to see Bakura Ryo appear out of nowhere. Compared to his current self, Bakura Ryo's skin was even darker, and his body was covered with horrific scars!

"Hahahaha!!" Bakula laughed maniacally. "Shada, you didn't really think you could defeat me with your strength, did you?! While destroying the Pharaoh's statue, I also obtained this thing~"

Bakula revealed the arm he had been hiding behind his back—it was the former king's Sacred Duel Disk!

Because the Pharaoh took as many troops as possible out to fight a decisive battle, the defenses of the Valley of the King's Sleep were withdrawn, thus giving Bakura an opportunity to take advantage of the situation.

The two shouted at the same time, summoning monsters from the stone temple.

Seto Kaiba was startled and immediately stepped back.

Explosions echoed through the palace, and the scene of their battle was virtually indistinguishable from a real-world card duel!

Seto Kaiba was utterly astonished, only then realizing that the seemingly cryptic words spoken by Pegasus and Yugi Muto actually held a special purpose!

"boom!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Amidst the violent tremors, the priest Shada was exhausted and defeated. Compared to Bakula, his strength was far inferior, and this gap was not only in their souls but also in tactics and skills...

Xia Da collapsed to the ground, the energy bar on the Sacred Duel Disk gradually dimming. He gritted his teeth, trying to fight back with his last ounce of strength, but in the end, he only coughed up a few mouthfuls of blood.

"Law, Pharaoh..."

"I'm sorry to disappoint you..."

"I... I failed to protect... the Millennium Artifact..."

Bakula walked over laughing: "Hahahaha! You're really incompetent! I took you down in just a few moves!"

Just as Bakura was about to rush over and take Shada's Divine Duel Disk and Millennium Key, Seto Kaiba suddenly rushed forward and put the Divine Duel Disk on his own hand: "Bakura!!"

"Although I don't know what your purpose is, you are, after all, an enemy of the game!!"

"The only ones who can defeat this game are me and Youche!!"

"Now, I will crush you!!!"

The moment the Sacred Duel Disk was equipped, a powerful golden light reverberated throughout the palace—a testament to immense soul power!

Just now, Seto Kaiba had already grasped the characteristics of dueling in this era by watching the matches. For a top duelist like him, learning this kind of thing was extremely easy. If he had a Duel Disk, he would never have let Shada carry the team alone!

The dying priest Shada paused, blood already staining his face and chest: "You are not... Lord Set... but you are not Bakura's assassin either..."

Seto Kaiba stood protectively in front of him, and said in a deep voice, "Don't worry! I will absolutely not let this evil guy lay a finger on what you're protecting with your life!!"

Priestess Xia Da forced a smile: "Please, please..."

As soon as he finished speaking, the priest Xia Da collapsed completely.

"Summon the monster—Dark Clown Zachi!!" Seto Kaiba roared in a deep voice, "And at the cost of soul power, activate its special ability—Evil Thought Expansion Technique!! Triple its combat power!!!"

A blinding light emanated from the temple, and an evil clown was summoned into the palace. It twisted and curled into a ball, its body tripling in size under the influence of dark energy. Then, it roared and unleashed an astonishing aura!

Bakula shouted irritably, "You're getting in the way!!"

"But arrogance will only ruin you, Seto Kaiba!!"

"This is a dark game; anyone who is defeated will die!!"

"It seems Pegasus's lesson to you wasn't enough. Well then, let me teach you a lesson you won't forget!!"

"Headless Horseman!! Kill that piece of trash blocking your way!!!"

A light shone, and a supernatural monster clad in armor appeared, wielding a sword and shield. It clashed its weapons together a few times before charging towards Seto Kaiba.

"It's no use!!" Seto Kaiba shouted, "Dark Clown Zachi is stronger than your power!! Counterattack!! Dark Spell!!!"

"boom--------------------"

A burst of dark purple light shot out and blasted towards the charging headless knight.

Bakula grinned slyly: "Heh! Too naive! The Headless Horseman's special ability—Undying Defense!!"

"At that moment, the headless knight's defense will increase dramatically!!"

Your attack was completely ineffective!
