Yu-Gi-Oh! Starting from Duel City

Chapter 210: Old guy, why don’t you quickly explode the gold coins?
After walking along the corridors filled with various surveillance equipment for a few minutes, Yurei and his party, who were following President Kaiba, came to an extremely empty large room under Naia's surveillance. .

The scenery as far as the eye can see is almost infinite darkness.

At the other end of the room, one could vaguely sense the gloomy aura of multiple human beings gathered together.

It is obvious that Kaiba Naia specially allowed the duelists to come here, not for them to visit.

The reason why he did this must have his own intention.

"What is this place for?"

Not choosing to act rashly, You Ling stayed at the entrance and first tried to observe the surrounding situation. "It seems to be just a wide and useless room..."

"Hey, is there anyone here? If there is someone, please show up quickly! Stop pretending to be a ghost here, say what you have to say, and fart if you have any!"

While observing the surrounding darkness, Jonouchi made a slightly vulgar urging sound from his mouth.

Almost at the same time as his voice fell, a dazzling light suddenly lit up on the other side of the room.

As this light came on, the empty room was instantly occupied by white light, turning it into a dazzling, almost blinding light.

After that, multiple figures gradually appeared from the end of the light, appearing side by side within the sight of You Ling and the others who came here.

"Jie Jie Jie Jie... Kaiba Seto and his friends, long time no see..."

Appearing in front of everyone were five middle-aged and elderly comrades wearing various suits.

Occupying position C among the crowd, that is, the old man in the center is holding an ornately decorated crutch with one hand and looking at the visitors with a playful expression.

After scanning the crowd at the entrance, he finally fixed his gaze on Seto Kaiba, who had been silent at the front of the crowd, anticipating his reaction.

"With this voice and this arrogant tone of voice, is it possible for you guys to..."

As if thinking of something dirty, Kaiba looked at the people in front of him, and a look of astonishment suddenly appeared on his face: "...could it be the [Fifth Elder]?!"

"Huh? Five old people? Are they those old guys?"

"Oh? Listen to this tone... Yugi, do you know each other?"

Listening to the words coming from the mouth of the starfish-headed boy next to him, You Ling, who still didn't understand the situation, raised his eyebrows and asked him curiously: "Those old men with very weak voices, are you acquaintances? "

If so, then the origins of these guys who are obviously in the same camp as Kaiba Naia are quite interesting.

They are acquaintances, but they are on the opposite side, so they are the second and fifth boys?
"Yes and no... to be precise, they are important officials who betrayed Kaiba Company before."

His brows gradually knitted together, and Xiaobiao continued to explain in a serious tone: "These guys used despicable means to take away control of the company from Kaiba."

"However, they should have lost to the game they designed, and their spirits have been imprisoned in the virtual world of the computer. What is this scene now..."

What Xiaobiao said was the past that happened before Kaiba fully took control of the company.

After Kaiba Gozaburo, the founder, burped, Seto Kaiba at that time played a dangerous game of betting on the ownership of the company with the "Five Elders" who were the company's elders.

In that battle game, Wang Xiang and Kaiba, who came to assist, worked together to achieve the ultimate fusion of each other's trump cards, summoning the strongest [Ultimate Dragon Knight], completely smashing the five elders' [Five Dragon Knights]. Shenlong], and then shattered the conspiracy of this group of losers into nothingness.

After Kaiba and the others ended the game and returned to the real world, the five elders also lost consciousness due to the negative cost and became a vegetative state.

However, now, these old guys from the same era as Gozaburo suddenly appeared out of nowhere and blocked everyone.

Looking at these haunting old guys, the expression on Kaiba's face was also not very good-looking.

"After losing to you guys before, the five of us have been wandering in the computer world."

Looking directly at Kaiba's face, the fifth elder continued with a slightly proud tone: "In a world where even the consciousness of 'I am who I am' is about to disappear, relying on the resentment that must avenge you , we finally managed to persevere.”

After a pause, he raised a finger alone, and then an evil light flashed in the eyes of one of the five elders: "One year, do you know how we got through this year?"

"...Seto Kaiba, you are not the only one who makes us resentful!"

"That's right...How dare we, the noble ones, have such an unpleasant experience. Muto Yugi and all our companions are also guilty of the same crime!"

There was absolutely no sense of remorse for what they had done wrong. The five elders who had been killed by Kaiba and Yugi earlier blamed everyone for the resentment they had suffered during this period.

In short, whatever we nobles do is right, it is not us who are wrong, but you!

Waving the butcher knife of resistance against us is the biggest mistake of you guys!
"What? You old guys have the nerve to say this? We have no reason to be resented by you!"

Even the good-tempered Xiao Biao laughed angrily at the words of the fifth elder.

In an angry tone, he waved his arms and expressed his ridicule to the five people opposite.

Old guy... his skin is as thick as a city wall, right?

"Huh! It's been so long, and you guys still look so nonchalant. It seems like you really haven't learned your lesson!"

Clenching his right fist hard, Kaiba sternly yelled at the five elders: "How did you damn old guys wake up? Is this also the work of that brat Naia?"

The only possibility that can be thought of is Naia who has taken away control of the airship.

I don’t know why, but that kid has abilities beyond ordinary people in the virtual world. Even the professionals from the Haima Group are no match for him in this regard. They can only let him control the airship. Take away.

Considering this aspect, it is understandable that he is able to find the consciousness of the five elders lost in the sea of ​​data.

"Jiejiejiejie... When a few of us were wandering in the computer world, there was an adult who sympathized with our plight and took the initiative to lend a helping hand to us."

After a pause, the five elders continued: "Yes, that person is the Lord Kaiba Naia you mentioned. While he saved us, he also made a condition for us."

"That is, if we still want to rule the Kaiba Company as the top five elders, we must defeat you people in an orthodox duel!"

"A duel with us?" Listening to this speech that was very consistent with the world view of Yu-Gi-Oh and turning all conflicts into a game of cards, Yu Ling immediately shrugged his shoulders.Well, all in all, as long as we kill these old guys from Kaiba Company through a duel, we'll be considered a pass.

"Although we really want to take advantage of this great opportunity to kill all of you, we cannot resist Master Naia's order."

Sighing regretfully, the five elders simultaneously looked at where You Ling and his group were: "Anyway, if you guys want to go back safely from here, you will have to defeat us in a duel."

"A duel, right? That's just right!"

After experiencing the elimination rounds of Duel City, the level of card playing in Huangmao Youth City has shown exponential growth.

Although he was still not as good as You Ling, a despicable foreigner, he didn't have any fear in his heart when facing these old people who had been abandoned by the times.

If it were just a duel, Jonouchi would have absolute confidence that he would not lose to the five elders in front of him!
"Jiejiejiejie... In that case, let us entertain you all and go to the duel world we live in."

At the same time as the words fell, the old man from the Five Elders Center tapped his cane hard.

Following his movements, everyone's figures also shifted, being forcibly teleported from the room originally illuminated by light to another strange place.

"here is?"

After looking around the surrounding environment, Xiao Biao regained consciousness and couldn't help but asked curiously: "Why did we appear in the jungle? What happened just now?"

The last thing I remember is the action of the five elders tapping their canes.

Then the next second, they appeared in this brand new space.

As for the five elders who originally appeared in front of them, they have already disappeared.

"Hmm...virtual space, right?"

After observing carefully for a while, Kaiba was keenly aware of the situation around him: "Those old guys are specially waiting for us to come in the projection room!"

"Don't worry, no matter how scary these images are, they are just virtual images!"

"But... not only the color and shape, but also the smell is the same as the real scene..."

"These guys...even the vibrations in the air have been completely reproduced..."

Shocked by the work of Goudao and Naia Kaiba, Keihei Kaiba, who was standing next to his brother, couldn't help but frown and let out a heartfelt sigh.

Although I really don't want to admit it, it is an extremely amazing thing to be able to simulate the virtual space to this extent.

If someone dies in this virtual world, maybe the person whose brain was deceived by the virtual scene will also die on the spot in the real world simultaneously, right?

--Roar! ! !

Just as everyone was observing the unfamiliar environment around them, they seemed to notice the sudden appearance of prey. A huge Tyrannosaurus Rex suddenly appeared and charged towards everyone's location with a fierce face.

Looking at the beast, which was several stories tall at least, Jonouchi swallowed his saliva immediately and comforted himself by saying to himself: "It doesn't matter, this is just a virtual image, it's all fake!"

Although he said that he did not believe in these virtual images, after feeling the sudden increase in pressure that seemed to be real, Jonouchi still followed his instinct and dodged aside.

Looking at You Ling who was still standing there, Jonouchi, who was running away with his sister, quickly exclaimed to him: "Hey! You Ling, stop standing there stupidly, that guy is about to rush over. Get out of the way!"

As Jonouchi said, the Tyrannosaurus Rex, who discovered the traces of everyone, rushed towards them.

Facing You Ling, who was still standing still and seemed not to notice him at all, the Tyrannosaurus rex angrily waved its sharp claws that could cut through gold and jade.

"You Ling!"

"……Danger!!!"

Thinking of the tragedy that followed, everyone with their mouths wide open couldn't help but close their eyes.

However, the Tyrannosaurus rex's claws passed straight through You Ling's body and did not cause any corresponding damage to him.

"Sure enough, there is still no way to reproduce the feeling of touch?"

After personally experiencing the upper limit of the virtual world, You Ling raised his arm to observe his own condition, and sighed as if talking to himself.

Seeing that it failed to threaten You Ling, the Tyrannosaurus rex lost interest in him. After letting out a muffled groan, he turned around and left the place on his own initiative.

"Huh, that's true! In the final analysis, these scenes are just imitating the three-dimensional images I developed, and they have not reached the point where they are fake and real."

Witnessing Yu Ling's attempts, President Kaiba narrowed his eyes and carefully looked at the surrounding environment.

"It's true, including the flowers around them, they are actually just false projections, not real objects..."

Walking casually to the grass beside the road, Kyoko squatted down and tried to touch the flowers blooming on the roadside.

Seeing her arm pass through the projection of the object smoothly, a look of surprise flashed across her face simultaneously.

However, just when she raised her head and planned to inform everyone about her discovery, another figure of Seto Kaiba suddenly appeared in front of her.

To be precise, it was Seto Kaiba when he was still a wayward young master.

"--what?!"

Kyoko was startled by the sudden appearance of Kaiba, and feeling the strong aura on his body, Kyoko subconsciously hid behind Xiaobiao.

Glancing back and forth between the Kaiba on her side and the Kaiba that appeared later, Kyoko couldn't help but have a big question mark on her face.

What the hell is going on here?

Is this also Kaiba-kun's projection?
