Chapter 1662 Yubel: Buhao!

"Seth, I'm doing something greedy." Standing in his office, facing the floor-to-ceiling window and looking at the scenery of the Duel Academy, Hayato, wearing sunglasses on his face, said, "If you can sense it, try to stop me."

On the wall of the office behind Hayato, Kaiba's image appeared on the video call, with an unhappy expression on his face.

"You suddenly called me on the video call just to say something like this?" Although he looked impatient, Kaiba did not hang up the call with Hayato, but continued the video call, while continuing the operation that was interrupted by Hayato just now, "I will Normal Summon [Legendary Shiraishi] on the field!"

"Next, take my..." Seeing that the values ​​displayed by [Blue-Eyes White Dragon] and [Legendary White Stone] in the instrument that has been monitoring the synchronous fluctuations between the monster cards on the field could not maintain a stable and consistent "synchronization", Kaiba frowned and spoke subconsciously, "Tsk——"

"Seth, are you trying to synchronize? Want me to tell you the trick?"

Hearing Kaiba's voice, Hayato said with a smile, but he had already guessed the answer before he asked.

"That's not necessary. I don't lack the power of the so-called 'Synchronous Summon'." As expected, Kaiba immediately rejected Hayato's suggestion stubbornly, "Even without the power of 'Synchronous Summon', my [Blue-Eyes] is still the strongest Dragon deck!"

"As long as enough adjectives are added in front, even [disturbance] can be the strongest." After complaining, Hayato could understand why Synchro Summoning, which became so popular decades later, could hold back Kaiba's progress for so long.

Although in the future, Synchro Summoning still has a certain learning threshold, at least among the many duelists who appeared in "5d's", almost everyone can synchronize. This does not mean that Kaiba is not as good as the weakest and dumbest among them, but there is something different between them.

That is, the planetary particle. Although this thing is a necessary condition for running the perpetual motion machine, it can also help the duelists to better complete the Synchro Summoning. After all, this is one of the basic settings of the planetary particle - an intermediary particle that can connect various elementary particles, that is, a universal repeater.

Not only can the high emotions of the duelists be transformed into unlimited energy for the perpetual motion machine, the Synchro Summoning between Duel Monsters can also be done more conveniently with the help of the active Wandering Particles in the atmosphere. In Synchro Summoning, the Tuner Monsters and the non-Tuner Monsters are like the positive and negative poles of a discharger, and the Wandering Particles are like the conductor that allows the current to pass through without damage. Now that there are no active Wandering Particles, Kaiba is like trying to use the current to break through the air and forcibly connect the two.

To put it another way - the magic web in DND, the duelists who will duel at high speed on D wheels in Shin-Domino City in the future are like spellcasters who can use magic relatively conveniently with the help of the magic web, while Kaiba does not have the assistance of the magic web and needs to learn magic bit by bit and then try hard to release it.

"That's about it anyway. So it's only natural that Sett can't successfully perform a Synchro Summon without Activated Planetary Particles. This is a limitation of the times."

Hayato said, raising his right hand and tapping his temple, "So, even if you create a blank white card that can accommodate a Synchro Monster, it will be useless."

——It’s not that he didn’t want to raise his left hand, but mainly because his left hand was still bandaged and hanging in front of his chest.

"What did you say 'in short'? You didn't say anything, did you?" Kaiba frowned. Hayato had just said that [Disruption] could also be the strongest in a certain field, and then he started to summarize as if he had just talked about a lot of knowledge related to Synchro. He couldn't help but complain, "And you said it was a limitation of the times, then what do you say?"

"Of course it's because my divine talent has left the times far behind!" Hayato said arrogantly and matter-of-factly, with one hand on his waist, "It's just that the conditions don't support it, otherwise I would have used Ultra and Link to make my opponents very happy."

"Hmph! Before you say that, take care of your hand injury first." Glancing at Hayato's left arm, which was quite conspicuous in the projection, Kaiba snorted, "Don't let it leave you with sequelae that prevent you from wearing the Duel Disk and dueling."

Finally, he added rather arrogantly: "Because if you can't duel, I won't be able to complete my revenge on you in the duel monster field. If that happens, I will never let you go! Remember, Hayato Kobayashi?"

"Don't make it sound like you can't duel without a duel disk. Before you invented the duel disk, didn't everyone duel on the duel stage?" Hayato said nonchalantly. "Otherwise, you can duel with the D-wheel when you have it in the future."

"Hmm?" Kaiba raised an eyebrow, "Dueling with the duel disk on the D-wheel? How come I didn't know there were duel disks on the 'Dargon Wheel'?"

Hayato was also stunned when he heard what Kaiba said, and then he suddenly remembered something - that is, although most people's D-wheels have a standard duel disk, the D-wheel that Kaiba bought is the Truth of Paradox from the end of the world, which does not have a duel disk on it, but allows the duelists to continue playing cards while wearing the duel disk.

The duel system on the Truth can only complete the placement and exclusion of cards. Other operations such as drawing cards and sending them to the graveyard must be completed on the duel disk. Even Paradox, the user of the [Sin] deck and the most important [Sin] home field magic card, needs the help of the duel disk to activate.

Compared to Yusei and Jack's D-wheels which are complete duel systems in themselves, although Paradox's D-wheel can also participate in high-speed duels and synchronized summons, to a certain extent, his D-wheel from a destroyed future obviously cannot be connected to the perpetual motion machine that destroys human will to power it. Even with the additional ability to travel through time and space, it is still incomplete in the two aspects of the duel function that a regular D-wheel should have and the connection to the perpetual motion machine.

Thinking of this, Hayato suddenly felt that Kaiba was really scary for being able to reverse the technology based on this incomplete D-Ring and develop his own "Dragon Ring". Especially, the D-Ring of Paradox that Kaiba got was not a complete version, but a defective one that was damaged after the duel.

Even so, Kaiba has already tinkered with a perpetual motion machine that he cannot use due to synchronization and prerequisites that are not met. If it is really a normal D-wheel in its complete form, perhaps Kaiba has fully mastered the relevant technology and perfected it to the point where it can be put into practical use.

"I see, is it possible to equip D, 'Dragon Wheel' with a complete duel system?" Hayato just mentioned it casually, but Kaiba seemed to have suddenly had an inspiration, "This way, it can indeed greatly reduce the incoordination of synchronization between cards without activated 'Seahorse Particles', and improve the stability and power of energy transmission."

"Tsk, is it because of the ready-made template that my thinking has also fallen into stereotypes? Damn gravity!"

"No, it's more likely because your talent is too extraordinary, Kaiba?" Hayato stroked his chin. "Because you have seen too far, you naturally move forward to the place that your talent can reach, and naturally ignore the shortcuts that actually appeared on the way."

"Are you trying to say that I didn't take the shortcut, but took a long and unnecessary journey?"

"How could that be? I've always believed that 'taking a shortcut is taking a long detour, and taking a long detour is the shortest shortcut'." Hayato said with a smile. Looking at the screen, someone had already transported the D-wheel from the warehouse and loaded it on the universal platform, ready to start and speed around the room at any time. It seemed that he was going to try another Synchro Summoning with the D-wheel in the duel arena. Hayato seemed to remember something and said to Kaiba, "But then again, although it's a semi-finished product, it can't travel through time and space, it can't be Synchro Summoned, and it's even more impossible to contact the non-existent perpetual motion machine, but Kaiba, you only made one D-wheel before?"

"Even if there are any technological breakthroughs later, they will just be modified based on the original D round. This is not like you. I still remember that you made several versions of the duel disk alone."

Thinking of Kaiba's early version of the Duel Disk that was thrown like a spinning top, Hayato couldn't help but tease.

(Beyblade (sure), and Jonouchi's incredible finger strength)

Kaiba's face was full of gloom, not wanting to admit that he had indeed made a prototype Duel Disk that could only use one card at a time. The first person he met after arriving on the island in the Duel Kingdom was Hayato. At that time, he wanted to use him to test the effect of his new Duel Disk, but this guy directly refused and said that he didn't want to use that kind of castrated product. Just thinking about it made him angry.

Although he didn't want to admit it, Kaiba answered honestly after hearing Hayato say this: "If it weren't for the material limitation, do you think I wouldn't want to make a second one? That is, the prototype is large in size, and even if some parts are removed while maintaining the original function, a second test machine can be assembled, but that's all."

"Huh? Your 'Dragon' is made of parts from the Truth?" Although Hayato has always known about the research progress of Kaiba's D round, after all, Kaiba has a brother who cares a lot about whether the company's R&D investment can get a return and he will complain to others, but this is the first time Hayato has heard that Kaiba has to rely on "taking money from one pocket to pay for another" to build the D round.

"When did the Haima Group become so poor that it couldn't even afford to buy materials?"

"Humph, if it was a material that could be purchased simply by spending money, then it wouldn't be a problem. But the core driving component of the D-wheel is a material that cannot be matched by existing elements at all." Kaiba said unhappily when he heard Hayato talk about this, "It can't even be said to be a material that has not yet been discovered, but a material that cannot exist in theory, which is the so-called 'unknown material'."

"If you hadn't said that this was technology from the future, I would have suspected that it was technology from another world, so it needed certain particles that were not active in this world and used substances that did not exist in this world."

"It doesn't exist? That's impossible." Hayato said strangely, "Let me think about the core driving component of the D wheel. I remember that thing was made of dyne ore, right?"

"Before you throw out a new term, why don't you tell me what the 'dyne ore' in your memory is and where it is produced from." Kaiba, who was just planning to ride on the D-wheel to continue trying to synchronize summoning, is no longer in a hurry and is patiently waiting for Hayato to tell him his information.

Although he never knew where Hayato got so much information from, he had known Hayato for ten years since high school, and his information was never wrong. Kaiba naturally trusted Hayato - of course, he would not believe Hayato's lie that he could easily Synchro Summon by tattooing a red dragon on his back.

"Because it is a story related to the popular character Gui Liu, I remember it very clearly. Dyne ore is a kind of golden rock excavated from the mines around Conflict Town. The materials extracted from it can be used to make the driving parts of the D-wheel."

Hayato spoke to Kaiba nonchalantly, and Kaiba naturally filtered out the parts of Hayato's words that he didn't understand, and asked, "Conflict Town? I've checked it online, and there is only one town called Conflict Town on the interstate highway between California and Oregon in the United States."

"But even though there are many mountains nearby, no special geological surveys have been conducted to confirm whether there are mineral deposits."

"California, and Oregon?" Hearing these two familiar place names, Hayato couldn't remember why he felt familiar with that location, but still said, "Maybe it's not there? There can't be only one place in the world called 'Conflict Town'."

However, after hearing Hayato's words, Kaiba gave him a subtle look: "For someone's own reasons, that place is indeed the only place in the world called 'Conflict Town'."

As he spoke, Kaiba operated something in the air in front of him, and used the interactive projection to grab a piece of news he had found and threw it to Hayato. The video screen on Hayato's side automatically popped up the news that Kaiba wanted Hayato to see.

"'The Duel King personally named the new town "Conflict Town", and Paradis' new town has become a popular tourist attraction'?" Looking at this news report from six years ago, Hayato suddenly remembered the reason why he was familiar with that location.

——When I first joined Doma, I went with Baron to "hunt" Jonouchi, who possessed one of the "Nameless Dragons". In order to ambush Jonouchi and his men, Baron used the resources of Paradis Company to build a small town in just one day. He named it "Conflict Town".

At the time, I just thought the location looked like a western movie, so I named it that. Did it really become "Conflict Town"? Or was the original Conflict Town renamed because there was already a famous scenic spot with that name?

Although he didn't know what Hayato was thinking, Kaiba continued, "I don't know whether there is the 'dyne ore' you mentioned under the nearby mountains, but I have already bought the Conflict Town scenic area that was taken over by the International Illusion Society as one of Doma's heritage, and the geological survey team is on the way."

"What a quick move!" Hayato complained, "It's nothing to be rich. As a major shareholder of the International Illusion Society, I haven't even agreed yet."

"But the Conflict Town Scenic Area, as an asset of the American region, was later bought privately by Becas and became his own property. I just bought it from Tianma Yuexing, who helped Becas manage his assets. It actually has nothing to do with the International Illusion Society."

Hearing this, Hayato gnashed his teeth and said, "You sold Conflict Town so easily. This is unforgivable, Bekas!"

"Hmm?" At this moment, a light suddenly came on in a device in Hayato's office. He turned his head sharply and looked towards the auditorium where the students were gathered. "Is this feeling the duel energy?"

"How dare you attack me on my territory, Yubel?!"

I wish you all a happy Dragon Boat Festival (although it should be Dragon Boat Festival when you read this chapter
