Chapter 123 The Eight People Who Advanced!
The fierce competition for puzzle cards in the preliminary round has basically come to an end. You Yu placed the six puzzle cards he collected on the duel plate. The projections of the six cards pieced together the projection of the map in mid-air, which seemed to indicate a specific coordinate in Tongshiya City.
Following the guidance of the map, You Yu quickly found the location pointed by the coordinates, which was also the starting point of the Duel City finals.
The reason why it is said to be the starting point is because You Yu knows that it is not the real final venue. Kaiba Company will wait there for the first eight duelists to arrive. After gathering eight people, the organizer will send out a floating duelist speedboat to welcome everyone on board.
Next, they will fly to the real final venue while dueling in the air to complete the elimination of the top eight and determine the final place that can advance to the semi-finals.
You Yu seems to be the second person to come to the final venue. The first person to arrive was of course Seto Kaiba, the boss himself as the organizer of the competition.
By the way, You Yu actually secretly thought about whether the organizer would really eliminate his boss if Kaiba really failed to grab the top eight spots to advance.
I always feel like there might be something shady...
Ahem, of course the butt determines the head. Now You Yu is considered half of the organizer of the competition, so even if there is a shady story, he will naturally have no objection.
Speaking of which, he flew over in the same helicopter as Kaiba...
Although both of them had collected six puzzle cards after defeating the Mask of Light and Darkness, it is not difficult to imagine that Kaiba would never take the initiative to invite others to fly on his plane.
The Haima Group's helicopter landed. The president turned around, swung his windbreaker and strode toward the plane. Then You Yu followed him up very "consciously"...
...Sure enough, the president only glanced at him and said nothing, which was regarded as acquiescence.
At this point, the onlookers could no longer keep up. However, after seeking permission from the president himself, You Yu authorized his tool Miss Yuehua to keep up.
After all, the latter is equivalent to his mobile camera, and he plans to take the anchor lady on board the duel boat to live broadcast the entire process.
And she is still holding the Gurus Duel Plate that You Yu grabbed in her hand...
Strictly speaking, when You Yu asked for the president's opinion, the president didn't say anything, he just turned his head and said "hum". So You Yu acquiesced that this meant permission.
Miss Yuehua's mood at this moment can no longer be described as excited. She felt like there were a hundred and eight deer scurrying around inside her...sounds like a car accident?
Sharing the same cockpit with Yu Yu and President Kaiba!
Can anyone else get this treatment?
Can't?
The helicopter arrived at the designated location for the rematch as the sun was setting.
Sure enough, they were the first two players to arrive.
The third competitor appeared about twenty minutes later.
He was a slender, dark-skinned player with handsome white hair and flashing eyes...
...isn't it Malik?
According to the animation, Malik concealed his identity when boarding the ship, but now he did not. He held the thousand-year-old tin stick in his hand and stood there openly, which was equivalent to directly stating clearly, "I am Malik who has the guts to chop me down."
Kaiba waved his hand: "Malik! As the organizer, I can announce your disqualification right now, but as a duelist, I will at least give you this chance! I will defeat you fair and square and win your hand. The card of God inside!”
Malik smiled and didn't answer with a confident look, as if everything was under his control.
You Yu glanced at him and said nothing.
In fact, how could he not know the little Jiujiu in Malik's heart? Malik came here mainly to seize the God Card. In addition, he was also planning to find an opportunity to use the Thousand-Year Tin Staff to wash the mind of the horse, seize the Titan Soldier, and obtain the secrets of the seahorse.
If Malik's crude plan could succeed, then You Yu felt that he could change his surname to Ma on the spot.
Not to mention President Kaiba's temperament, Malik may have to wait until the next life to deceive his trust and find an opening to attack. And to say the least, even if Malik really seizes this opportunity, this plan may not come true.
To be fair, You Yu really wanted to see what it would be like to see Malik brainwashing the president. The true identity of Kaiba is the reincarnation of the priest Seth three thousand years ago. The Thousand-Year Tin Staff belonged to the priest Seth three thousand years ago. On the stone slab of the century battle unearthed in Egypt, the Thousand-Year Tin Staff was also held by the priest Set.
Moreover, in the anime, at the critical moment of Kaiba's duel, the thousand-year-old tin staff in Malik's hand even turned his elbow outwards despite his instructions, secretly helping Kaiba to escape and forcibly rewrite the fate of defeat.
It can be seen that this thing is still more partial to the old owner and is not very interested in the new owner.
If Malik, who knew nothing, had stupidly taken the Thousand-Year Tin Staff to brainwash Kaiba, the tin staff would have been betrayed on the spot and went to Kaiba's hands, helping Kaiba even get back the priest's memory of his previous life before the game, the full-level large player would be directly It will be funny when it goes online...
Arriving after Malik was Tapirang, a vessel possessed by the great evil god Sok.
Speaking of which, this guy is really capable. It was almost dark when he started to participate in the Duel City Competition. He actually managed to collect six puzzle cards in such a short time.
According to the original plot, Malik should have sent his big guy Lishid to pretend to be him to participate in the competition, but he didn't come at this time.
You Yu speculated that it might be because Lishid had met him before and his identity was exposed, or it might be because the big guy was robbed of a "Wang's Temple" by him and the whole person was autistic...
After a while, the next one to appear was a mature and slender woman wearing a white robe and a veil.
She and Malik have the same dark skin, elegant and confident steps, smart and intellectual eyes, as if covered by a layer of light water curtain, as if she can see through everything.
That is Isis Ishdar, Malik's sister.
Malik's heart skipped a beat when he saw his sister, and his eyes instantly became sharp. However, before he could say hello, his sister walked past him as if she hadn't seen him, and took out six puzzle cards to show them to Kaiba, the organizer.
Kaiba snorted and nodded, and Isis immediately put away the puzzle cards and stood aside.
She never looked up at Malik from beginning to end.
Malik was bored, and although he wanted to ask her questions, he held back and stood aside without saying anything.
In this way, there were already five contestants on the scene: Youyu, Kaiba, Malik, Bakura, and Isis, and there were only three places left.
Although President Kaiba said nothing on the surface, he actually began to worry about someone he was paying attention to.
What are you hesitating about? Games? Why don't you come over?
You can't be the kind of duelist who can't even reach this step, right?
......So what is Yugi doing now?
So many people have collected all six puzzle cards, and Yugi Muto, as the real protagonist, is no exception.
He has already got six puzzle cards in his hand, and he met up with Mamoru Konoha and Jonouchi, who also collected all the puzzle cards, on the way. The three of them are now rushing to the semi-finals together.
......But there were some accidents on the way.
A foreign uncle in a white suit suddenly appeared out of nowhere - it is said that he seems to be a Hollywood movie star, pestering Mamoru Konoha and insisting that she go back with him to be his wife...
The uncle said that he fell in love with Wu at first sight and wanted to challenge her with her best duel. If Wu loses the card game, she has to go back with him to be his wife...
Sister Mamoru Konoha rolled her eyes and was ready to refuse without thinking.
Are you kidding? Why should I be your wife if I lose?
Besides, Sister Wu’s mind is full of Jonouchi, and she has no interest in Hollywood stars...
"So handsome, Wu! There is actually a Hollywood star chasing you!" Jonouchi looked excited, "I think it would be nice for you to marry him, so that I can brag to others that my best friend’s husband is a star, hahaha!"
Wu: ".................."
