Chapter 1783 Do you believe in gravity?
Although Caesar and Edward were searching for the Duel Academy after setting out, they encountered Kobayashi Hayato on the way, which was obviously better news.

As I said before, although Kobayashi Hayato is the biggest danger when there is no real danger, he gives people an unparalleled sense of security when real danger comes.

"I see. So they were transferred to this world because they stayed in the Obelisk-Blue dormitory." Hayato was also a little surprised when he saw Edward and Caesar from the sky. After all, the two of them would not have been affected by this transfer and entered the Spirit World, which led to the communication duel between Caesar and John to help him awaken the Rainbow Dragon.

As a result, although John has obtained the [Rainbow Dragon] card, he has not been able to fully utilize its power, which has made Caesar interested in it and stay at the Duel Academy. As a result, he was drawn into the "Great Transfer" incident by Yubel's power.

It has to be said that the butterfly effect has brought about really big changes. Hayato thought of this and took a special look at Edward. Besides wanting to learn and become stronger, Edward probably also had the idea of ​​defeating Caesar to avenge the "revenge" of being defeated by him in the very beginning.

"Speaking of which, didn't Prince Sai divine your fate this time?"

"The Diviner, King Sai, has lost that ability. It seems he was accidentally killed along with 'Light's' control over him." Edward shrugged helplessly.

Hayato remarked, "It's obvious that Saiou's ability to predict the future was originally his own, but it disappeared with the departure of the 'Light of Destruction,' making it seem as if his ability was bestowed upon him by the 'Light of Destruction.'"

“If that were true, at least Saiou could find a source of resentment for all his childhood experiences. But in reality, the object of his hatred was…” Edward didn’t continue. He was powerless to do anything about the “object of hatred” that caused Saiou’s childhood experiences—human society itself, which rejected the different and despised the extraordinary. After all, he was just a sixteen-year-old duelist.

Caesar wasn't particularly concerned about Saiou's matter; he was more interested in something else: "Hayato-sensei, how did you come to be in this world? And, Daitoku-sensei, who is..."

"Ah, I had forgotten about it if you hadn't mentioned it." Hearing Caesar's words, Hayato suddenly remembered that after switching to Crystal Wing Synchro Dragon, he had casually tossed Daitokuji's body onto the dragon's back. Although Hayato managed to stand firmly thanks to his strong body as a duelist, Daitokuji's body seemed to have been thrown out and crashed onto the sand by Crystal Wing Synchro Dragon's "Cute Star Flying Crash."

Looking back from Hayato's perspective, one can still see Daitokuji's body, its head embedded in the sand, motionless.

"Don't worry about me, meow. It's just an abandoned body anyway." Daitokuji's spirit floated out next to Hayato and explained to Caesar. However, he forgot that he was now a dead man without a body. What Caesar and Edward saw was just a strange ball of light floating around in the air.

“They can’t hear you.” Hayato glanced at Daitokuji’s body and shrugged at Caesar and the others. “Anyway, that’s just Daitokuji’s unwanted body. His soul is actually the luminous body in front of you.”

"Huh!?" Compared to Caesar, Edward was more surprised by the news he heard. "Does this mean that the teacher of Daitokuji Temple has died and 'become a Buddha'?"

"No, it's not that bad. This isn't the first time Daitokuji has been like this. He's already died twice before, and this is the third time. He could apply for a Guinness World Record for the most deaths." Hayato casually remarked, explaining, "If this were our original human world, Daitokuji's current state wouldn't last long before he truly 'vanished.' But the spirit world has some unique characteristics, so you can still see Daitokuji's soul lingering in front of you."

"However, Daitokuji Temple in front of you should only have the shape of a 'firefly' now, right? It seems that even in the spirit world, the ability of a 'spirit user' is still helpful in seeing the whole picture. Only those who can see spirits can see Daitokuji Temple's original appearance. After leaving the spirit world, I'm afraid ordinary people won't even be able to see Daitokuji Temple's light sphere form."

Caesar has some knowledge of Daitokuji Temple's past, since the "Seven Stars" incident occurred during his school years. Although two years have passed, he hasn't forgotten it so quickly, and he hasn't forgotten that the alchemy circle left behind by Daitokuji Temple caused the disappearance of two of his classmates. However, his knowledge of Daitokuji Temple is not extensive, unlike Jaden's comprehensive understanding.

Not to mention Edward, who only enrolled after Daitokuji's death and had never experienced the "Seven Stars" incident. Although he had seen Daitokuji in the Red Dormitory as a non-employee, he had no idea that the person in front of him was someone who had died and taken a new body.

Hayato didn't intend to explain the details to them. He simply gave them a brief overview, letting them know that Daitokuji had previously changed bodies to prolong his life. This time, he was protecting the students in the Red Dormitory, which caused his body's lifespan to run out, leaving him to remain in the world as a soul.

"Though I hate to admit it, it's all because of mistakes made in my youth." Hayato casually murmured, gazing at the full moon, about why he was in this world. It was afternoon in the human world, but late at night in the spirit world.

Hayato spent half a day just finding two dormitories. Time flew by so fast that it felt like he hadn't done anything yet and the holiday was over, and he had to go back to work or school. It was so disorienting that it made him feel dizzy and confused.

"Who can understand what you're saying?" Edward complained, and Caesar also pouted helplessly, "Hayato-sensei, you're always saying things that are hard to understand."

"In short, all you need to know is that I, your teacher, will be transferred to this world, and the person who did it is the same person who sent you to this world." With a clap of his hands, Hayato hastily ended his topic about himself and was about to introduce the situation of Daitokuji Temple, but then he suddenly realized something.

"By the way, Daitoku-ji Temple, why are you here?"

"It's a question asked on the spot?"

"Nonsense, I never cared how Daitokuji ended up here." Hayato shrugged and looked at Daitokuji's spirit. "If I remember correctly, you haven't appeared since the start of this semester, Daitokuji. At least until I left the human world and came to the spirit world, you didn't come to school. So, if you weren't affected by the 'Great Transfer,' how did you get to the spirit world?"

"Good question. I don't know why I still have to work at a school even though I don't have a teaching position or salary, meow." The spirit of Daitokuji poked at the crux of Hayato's words, looking troubled and unsure where to begin. "Well, it all started with last year's 'Second World Martial Arts Tournament, meow.'"

"We've gone back too far in time, so let's keep it brief."

"In short, among the people you invited to the island, Hayato, isn't there a doctor named Bein Stein? Although his theory of the unification of duels is not the same as alchemy, there are many similarities. For people like us who have gone far in our respective fields, it is possible to achieve 'learning by analogy' by exploring other knowledge with similar aspects, meow."

Because Hayato requested a brief explanation, Daitokuji omitted a large portion of the original explanation regarding the mutual corroboration of "alchemy" and the "unified theory of duels," and went straight to the conclusion: "In short, Dr. Stein and I went to his research institute and spent the entire vacation there researching and verifying together. We were so engrossed that I forgot to go back to school, meow~"

(The largest dimensional transfer point in Duel Academy is the main campus, and the second largest is the gate to the Royal Valley.)
"But it was there that Professor Bein Stein shared with me the gravitational anomalies he had collected on Duel Academy Island at the school. In the 'Duel Unification Theory,' Dr. Bein Stein regarded gravity, which is commonly known as 'gravity,' as a special force that transcends time and space. Anomalies in gravity are often accompanied by special phenomena, and conversely, anomalies in gravity can be observed at the locations where special phenomena occur."

"And coincidentally, there is also a special concept of 'ley lines' in the philosophy of alchemy. As for the past of Duel Academy Island, Hayato, you know, meow. Anyway, those gravitational anomalies that were discovered were compared by me and Dr. Byin Stein."

"Out of curiosity, we conducted an experiment in the research institute to see if we could reproduce the special phenomena by artificially simulating the gravitational anomalies on Duel Academy Island in the laboratory through the combination of alchemy and the theory of the Duel Unification. So I personally presided over this experiment not long ago."

(Scientists never disappoint when it comes to creating outrageous content.)

"So, because it resonated with a gravitational anomaly of the same magnitude as the one on the island, Daitokuji-sensei was also brought to this world." Listening to Hayato's retelling, Edward nodded. "I see. But does that also mean that we can try to travel back to our original world by tracing back Daitokuji-sensei's journey?"

“Good idea, we can include it in the options. Let’s try it again after John fails to succeed. After all, Daitokuji’s ability to travel through time was just an accident.” Hayato didn’t dampen Edward’s enthusiasm for his idea, but instead gave it serious consideration.

He wasn't really worried about not being able to return to the human world like everyone else. To be honest, if he couldn't return to the human world, the person who would be most anxious wouldn't be him, or even Isis, but that guy Kaiba.

The reason why Hayato was thinking about the possibility of returning to the human world with Jaden and Edward was precisely because Hayato believed that Kaiba's talent would definitely allow him to invent the black technology to bring Hayato and the others back from the spirit world. However—doesn't anyone think that the expression on Kaiba's face would be interesting when he was about to use his invention to bring Hayato and the others back, but Hayato and the others had already returned to the human world by their own power?

So, after we find the Sun God-Yellow Dormitory, we need to put some pressure on John to develop the power of the [Ultimate Jewel God-Rainbow Dragon] as soon as possible. It's been almost a day since we came here. If they are a few days slower, who knows if Kaiba will be able to successfully make the invention?
“John Anderson? Does he also have a way to take us back to our original world?” Caesar, who had always been very interested in John, asked after hearing Hayato’s words. “Even you, Hayato-sensei, don’t have a way.”

"After all, most of my cards are good at destruction, and it's easy for me to travel through the world alone, but how to accurately move so many people and so many buildings back to their original islands intact, that can only rely on John's [Ultimate Jewel God - Rainbow Dragon] - it's just a pity that he's still too slow in developing the power of that card."

Upon hearing this, Caesar immediately became interested: "So, to develop a duelist's abilities, it really is through duels, right? Hehehe, I think [Cyber ​​Dragon] would be perfect for stimulating John Anderson's growth."

Edward glanced at Caesar and scoffed, "Still saying you're not addicted to cards?"

However, Caesar ignored him, pretending not to hear what Edward was saying, and just stared at Hayato.

"I get it. After all, I know someone even more addicted to cards than you, and that guy gets incredibly excited playing against the AI, even losing feels like winning." Taking advantage of Kaiba's silence, Hayato continued his tirade, pulling out his ever-useful Millennium Wisdom Wheel and looking around. He pointed in the direction indicated by the pendant on it. "That's Duel Academy. But are you two going alone? Aren't you going to bring the people from the Blue Dorm?"

"I almost forgot about those guys in the Blue Dorm." Hearing Hayato say that, Edward, who was actually planning to go ahead with Caesar to the Duel Academy headquarters to play cards with John Anderson, scratched his head awkwardly. After remembering that, it was indeed a bit difficult for Edward, who was also a hero lover at heart and had a sense of justice, to ignore the others.

"But Hayato-sensei, are you really so confident in having just two students like us lead the team?"

"Are you two really that strong as ordinary students?" Hayato pointed to the [Sleeping Giant - Gudu] behind him, which was dissipating very quickly but was still not completely gone due to its large size. "Although I ended up beating its head, you two could have taken it down even without me, right? So there shouldn't be many monsters in this desert that could pose a significant threat to you two."

"Besides, even if the students in the Blue Dormitory are weak, they're still stronger than those in the Red Dormitory and can be of some use. So, I'm entrusting this important task to you." Hayato let [Crystal Wing Synchro Dragon] pull Daitokuji's body out of the sand and put it back on his back, then he parted ways with them with peace of mind. "As for me, I still have to go find the Sun God - Yellow Dormitory."
