Yu-Gi-Oh! 5Ds: Duelists Beyond Light

Chapter 265 Speed ​​264 The Dark Seal——Keiyanagi Kyousuke

Just when Ryuya was clamoring to go out and play every day and wanted to participate in the dueling tournament, an invitation actually arrived.

Longya was overjoyed, Long Ke looked confused, and Hanster's feelings were complicated. He couldn't say whether he was happy or troubled, but since he had already made a promise to Longya, he had to keep it.

Following the date and time on the invitation, Long Ya, dressed in his finest attire, led Hanster and Long Ke to the competition venue. However, what was rather strange was that the competition was not being held in the arena, but rather next to a hotel.

"Huh? Why would you choose a place like this to hold the competition?" Long Ke asked, somewhat puzzled.

Hanster couldn't figure it out either, but he had previously investigated the organizers of the competition and found no problems: "Maybe it's an indoor venue?"

"Oh my gosh!" Ryuuya exclaimed excitedly, spinning his arms like a wheel. "Don't be so paranoid! We're here! Now, watch Ryuuya's performance, duelist!! I'll definitely defeat my opponent with the most spectacular combo!!"

As they spoke, the group arrived at the location where the competition was being held.

The players' lounge they arrived at turned out to be an exquisitely decorated restaurant, with sumptuous and delicious food laid out on burgundy tablecloths. Judging from its layout and size, the lounge seemed to be prepared individually for each player.

"They really have deep pockets..." Long Ke sighed. She still couldn't understand why they had to invite Long Ya to a competition of this scale.

Could it be that……

Was this a surprise arranged by Mom and Dad in secret?!
Maybe I'll see my parents, whom I haven't seen in a long time, soon!

Long Ke thought this way and stopped doubting it, but Hanster became wary.

As a member of a professional dueling team, he had considerable experience in major tournaments, but he had never seen such a large-scale reception before. He was certain that something was amiss!

Longa was about to tear off a chicken leg and start eating when Hanster immediately stopped him: "Let's go!"

Longya asked in disappointment, "Huh?! Why...?"

Long Ya, who had finally gotten this opportunity, was naturally unwilling, but seeing Hanster's serious expression, he hesitated for a moment and became obedient, no longer touching the food on the table.

Hansfield took the two children's hands and walked towards the door.

But it was all too late.

They turned the doorknob and found that the door had been completely locked at some point, and no matter how much they shouted outside, it was to no avail.

Hanster's expression turned extremely serious as he pulled out his car repair tools from his pocket, preparing to break the lock.

Just then, a faint wisp of smoke drifted in from the ventilation ducts, and soon drowsiness overwhelmed their minds, causing them to drift off into a deep sleep...

When Hanster and Long Ke woke up again, they found themselves in a completely unfamiliar place. It was like some kind of special experimental base. Not far ahead was a transparent glass wall, and a familiar girl was quietly watching the commotion in the dueling training arena outside.

Hanster and Long immediately recognized the girl as the legendary Black Rose Witch—Izayoi Aki!

Their hearts sank, but they could also tell that Izayoi Aki was somewhat different from before.

"You're awake?" Aki Izayoi said calmly, pointing to the training ground behind the glass. "Your companions are over there."

The two people who were worried about Longya rushed to the glass. They were shocked to see that Longya was actually tied to a special device and was fighting a duel with a somewhat unfamiliar man.

“What is this?!” Hansster shouted.

Izayoi Aki answered calmly, "Experiment." Hanster was furious. He was about to make a move when he discovered that everything on his body, including his card deck, was gone. Although Izayoi Aki's personality had changed, her destructive power as the Black Rose Witch remained. She simply turned her head and gave Hanster a cold look, stopping him from making any moves.

Hanster gritted his teeth. Reason told him that now was definitely not the time to act recklessly. This place must be a paradise-like base. If he made any rash moves, these people might very well target Longya and Longke...

He really wanted to pass this message on to the Public Security Bureau and You Qing.

However, he had nothing left except his clothes.

"Tsk..." Hanster clenched his fists tightly, constantly thinking of countermeasures in his mind, and hoping that Longa would not get injured in the duel.

In the training grounds of this idyllic paradise, Long Ya slowly awoke to find himself standing in a dueling arena. He thought it was just a dream and that the match was about to begin, but the shackles on his wrists and ankles immediately reminded him that he had probably gotten into trouble...

Across from them, a strange man named "Dewayne" smiled mysteriously: "You're awake, Longya. Let your uncle use this duel to unlock your potential~"

"Your sister is a Dragon Signer, and she can see card spirits~"

"As the older brother, you must be quite something too~"

"By the way, your original deck probably can't unleash your true power."

"So, I'm returning your uncle's deck to you."

"Now, do everything you can to defeat me!"

The next day.

Before dawn, You Qing woke up. In fact, he hadn't rested for long, but too many things were keeping him awake.

When he woke up from his bed, he found that Yusei Fudo and Jack Atlas were gone, and the person guarding the computer was none other than his opponent from the Satellite District High Speed ​​Duel Tournament, "Bullet Raven" - Crow Hogan.

"You're awake?" Crowe Hogan's fingers tapped on the computer keyboard, seemingly adjusting the D-Wheel's system. You Qing noticed that the D-Wheel Crowe Hogan was now piloting was the Blackbird, just like in the original story, indicating that the timeline was gradually converging.

"Where are they?" You Qing sat up in bed, his body still aching.

"Yusei and Jack have gone to win over that outcast Dragon Signer, the woman named Izayoi Aki. They're on their way to the Paradise Base now," said Kro Hogan.

You Qing nodded and put on his clothes.

Right now, it's the time for the Dragon Markers to gather and the Dark Markers to awaken one after another, with both factions constantly expanding their strength.

There was still some time before the battle that would determine the fate of the world. You Qing was worried that Decade, who had been corrupted by the Demonic Beast, would become the next Darkmarker. So his next task was to find Decade.

Several kilometers away, Yusei Fudo and Jack Atlas were speeding along on their D-Wheels.

Suddenly, the sky turned cloudy, and dark clouds gathered.

A familiar figure blocked their way, and both Yusei Fudo and Jack Atlas showed extreme shock.

Because the attacker who had been afflicted by the Dark Mark was none other than their deceased old friend—Kiryu Kyosuke!
