Who asked him to play Yu-Gi-Oh!

Chapter 1706 The Shame of the Seafood Head

The next morning, just as dawn broke, You Xuan and the others quickly ate breakfast and left the camp.

Of course, the resistance would soon have to move on after they left. This area had clearly attracted the attention of the Academy, and another Academy crackdown was likely imminent; they had to relocate as quickly as possible.

Lingyi naturally joined Youxuan and the others' group for the time being, leading them towards the academy headquarters.

They traveled all morning, during which Lingyi shared some information about the past of this dimension with the group. This gave the Seafood Kings a better understanding of the past of this dimension, but there weren't any points that Youxuan was unaware of.

Anyway, it's probably still the same story: playing cards destroys the world, and then playing cards saves the world.

During the conversation, Zero also mentioned the name "Sakaki Yuya," which hadn't appeared in the stories the others had heard before. It was a pity that this boy, who was supposed to inherit the title of Seafood King and be a junior to the group, didn't live up to expectations. Even in the stories told by later generations, he was merely a footnote to Zack.

Zero didn't even elaborate on this person's life, only saying that this person was the last of the four Zack clones to realize that he was fighting against Zack's main body.

But all Yuya Sakaki left behind for posterity was the title of "the one who lasted the longest," and nothing else particularly noteworthy. Thus, these Seafood King predecessors only briefly marveled at the terror of the demon Zach before quickly forgetting their successor.
In fact, looking back now, Yu Xuan realizes that he had followed the Yu-Gi-Oh! series for ten years out of passion, and with the determination to appreciate its merits even if he knew it was a historical masterpiece, he had reluctantly finished watching Yu-Gi-Oh! Arc-V and even unlocked the legendary title of "Red Stone Hero".

However, after all these years, looking back at the Arc-V storyline now, it seems that Yuya Sakaki doesn't have any particularly memorable moments.

He is now trying hard to recall, and apart from the moment when the final boss Zack descended with overwhelming pressure, which was like the end of the world, there are only some famous scenes that have been repeatedly used as memes by card players.

As for Yuya Sakaki, in his impression, he seemed to be in a state of mental instability and madness throughout the entire series.

The screenwriter probably saw that Yuma's "soaring to the sky" cult was operating well in the first work, and it had a good reputation among the audience. It also sold like hotcakes on DogK, which can be described as a double success.

So the brilliant screenwriter, Masaru Ueshiro, had a sudden inspiration and, perhaps wanting to replicate the success of the previous generation, created the "Decisive Laughing" cult in Arc-V.

To summarize its main doctrine, it is "duel must be performed with a smile." If you only look at this idea, it is neither particularly ahead of its time nor particularly abstract in the Yu-Gi-Oh! series. If handled properly, it is perfectly plausible. However, given the background of the Arc-V dimensional war and the writer's bizarre descriptions, this doctrine has become rather abstract.

In the Arc-V universe, duels are the most powerful cross-dimensional military weapons. The Xyz Dimension is invaded by the Fusion Dimension, plunging the entire world into flames.

After everything was over, everyone else's Xyz Dimensional home was blown up, and all their friends and family were turned into cards. However, against this backdrop, the protagonist Tomato (Yuya Sakaki) actually jumped onto the faces of the Xyz Rebels and shouted something about "decisive laughter".

Honestly, if Tomato didn't get turned into a card by others, it can only mean either that the other person is very polite, or it's because Tomato plays cards by picking up cards everywhere without any regard for card etiquette, and even if the opponent is angry, they can't beat him.
In addition, tomatoes have contributed many more abstract and memorable scenes.

For example, if the other party doesn't accept his "smile and brainwash" approach, he will directly turn evil and go berserk, saying things like, "You don't want to smile and you don't want to die, which puts me in a difficult position."

For example, in the story of the lower-class slums of the same dimension, people are oppressed by the upper class and have no food to eat, and they are starving to death. At this time, Tomato jumps out and shouts slogans, saying that it doesn't matter if there is no food to eat, let's play cards and laugh together.

However, there are still some normal people in the human-synchronized dimension. Crow Hogan then jumps out and says, "Are you fucking insane? We're all starving, what are you laughing at?"

However, Tomato retorted confidently, saying that the joy of playing cards is more important than having a full meal. If you disagree, then let's have a match.
The most abstract part is that in the end, Crowe was actually convinced by Tomato and realized that Tomato's words made sense. Although we have a huge wealth gap and the lower classes are suffering, we still have cards to play!
Of course, Yuugen's memory of the Arc-V animation is not very clear anymore. After all, it has been many years since the original was released. He only has some vague memories now, which may just be some stereotypes.

But even based on these stereotypes, he hardly considered Tomato when forming his multiverse dueling team.

Now that we know the tomato from this dimension has long since died and been absorbed by Zack, it's hard to say whether that's a good thing or a bad thing for this world.
"We're almost in the city area," Lingyi said. At this moment, the group was crossing a mountainous area.

At that moment, Yubel suddenly appeared behind Judai: "Judai."

Judai glanced at her sideways and nodded: "Yeah, I noticed that too."

Not only Jaden, but Yugi in the group also said, "Someone is following us."

Yuma: "Then what should we do?"

"No rush, let's pretend nothing's wrong and keep going," Judai said.

You Xuan noticed it too. However, since there were many experts in the group, he didn't need to take action himself.

So everyone continued on as if they hadn't noticed anything. From the shadows on both sides, a group of people followed stealthily, keeping their distance behind cover, recording the whole thing as they went.

But the group was so engrossed in watching that they didn't notice a shadow silently approaching from behind.

Until a hand reached out and casually tapped one of the pursuers on the shoulder.

The man turned around blankly and was shocked to see a giant of light—no, it was the glowing "Elemental Hero Neo-Universe Knight"—standing behind them, arms crossed, coldly observing them.

"Ugh!"

The pursuer couldn't help but exclaim in surprise: "A spirit! A monster spirit!"

They shouted and quickly unfolded the Duel Disk.

But it was too late. A thunderous roar echoed through the valley, followed by an earth-shaking tremor.

Then Xinyuxia slowly flew over, carrying the few pursuers in his hand.

"what?"

Judai came up with his hands on his hips and looked them over. After observing their clothes, he asked curiously.

"I thought you were from the academy. Judging by your attire, aren't you from the academy?"

After several clashes with the academy, Jaden had learned that the academy's soldiers all wore standardized uniforms. The style of their uniforms was somewhat similar to that of the Duel Academy in their dimension.

Before the stalkers could answer, Ling Yi said strangely, "I might know these people."
