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

Noon the next day.

You Qing slowly opened his eyes.

The profound exhaustion and anxiety about the future made him feel as if a huge rock was pressing on his chest.

The complex and intertwined timeline has made it impossible for him to predict the future.

From the moment I stepped into this WRGP competition, the ripples completely disrupted everything that was foreseeable.

All You Qing knows right now is that the "Taiyi" organization's current plan is still to complete the loop and trigger the Arc Cradle.

As for what they will do next, You Qing can only speculate.

"Now that the ghost has appeared..."

"Therefore, the goal of completing the loop can be determined."

"However, Antinomi's actions are still unknown..."

Knowing that he couldn't get a concrete result yet, You Qing had no choice but to take the new deck and prepare to leave.

In the afternoon, he was going to visit the team.

Shirley LeBlanc has already joined his team, and he needs to help with the introduction.

Once he, Yan Chenghai, and Shirley Lubrin's team complete their registration, they will be heading to the WRGP tournament opening ceremony that evening.

You Qing quickly packed up, then put on his new racing uniform and left home with Yan Chenghai.

The afternoon's procedures went very smoothly. There weren't many records of Shirley Leblanc's duelists, but her stats were excellent. Combined with You Qing's influence, the team manager quickly approved and was about to sign the contract.

However, Shirley LeBron's manager, Mizoguchi, rejected the two-year contract and high commission. He stated that Shirley LeBron did not need any signing fee, but the team could not prevent them from leaving after the WRGP tournament.

Even though her family had fallen on hard times, Shirley LeBlanc's fanny pack was still very full.

Upon hearing about this great opportunity, the team manager immediately went to register the team without hesitation.

It should be noted that the team members are not only duelists, but also include members with other roles.

For example, the 5Ds team, which consists of Yusei Fudo and others, includes not only the duelists who will participate—Yusei Fudo, Jack Atlas, and Cro Hogan—but also the twins who are in charge of logistics—Ryua and Ryuko.

The team that Youqing is in – “Fire&Flowers&Clear”, or “FFC” for short – is also equipped with D-round engineers like Hanster, as well as several logistics support personnel carefully selected from professional teams.

Since being severely injured by the Ice Barrier's Zero Dragon Trident Dragon, Hanster has recovered for a long time and is finally able to move freely. However, due to the sealing of his mental and spiritual power, he has completely bid farewell to his identity as a duelist and officially become a D-Wheel Engineer.

night.

The Daedalus Bridge was illuminated with dazzling starlight.

Several spiraling, silver-white roads encircle the building, eventually leading to a magnificent, standalone structure.

This is a venue specifically for high-speed business duels. Tonight, the opening ceremony and announcement for the WRGP competition will be held here.

With some time to spare before the ceremony began, the arriving duelists and teams engaged in friendly exchanges and gave interviews to various media outlets.

"Yuqing, it seems your team is already assembled." Fudo Yusei greeted Yuqing with a smile.

Yu Qing nodded and responded with a smile. But at that moment, relying on his power to communicate with the spirits, he sensed that a new power seemed to have appeared in Fudo Yusei's deck.

That power was different from synchronization; it was more like fusion, yet it didn't seem like a true fusion.

You Qing was stunned.

Is it...

It's a Wave Dragon Knight?!
Yu Qing looked at Fudou Yusei, whose eyes flashed with surprise, but it quickly disappeared.

Now, You Qing can be basically certain—the paradox has already made its move.

Whether it's the second or third timeline, Paradox basically started his plan during this period, and it seems that his mission remains unchanged in this fourth timeline.

Paradox is one of the future four. His mission is to destroy Duel Monsters from the root and kill Pegasus, the father of Duel Monsters, in the earliest time.

The deck he possesses is the extremely powerful Sin deck.

Unfortunately, his opponent was someone whose power was immeasurable.

Because he was facing the protagonists of the Yu-Gi-Oh! series, and not just any protagonist, but three at the same time—Yugi Muto, Jaden Yuki, and Yusei Fudo!!

The defeat of the paradox is already certain.

Having learned a lot from Jaden Yuki, Yusei Fudo has also begun to incorporate the Fusion system into his decks in an attempt to counter the Ghosts, who have been active recently.

Since the last ghost was defeated by Enjo Mukuro, a new ghost has quickly appeared, and many high-speed duelists have taken notice of this.

On one occasion, Kro Hogan was attacked by a ghost while delivering takeout. Fortunately, his Blackwing deck was strong enough that he managed to turn the tide and win despite the disadvantage of his Synchro Monster being taken by Machine Emperor.

After defeating a ghost, Cro Hogan returned home and recounted the duel. It was through this account that Yusei Fudo and Jack Atlas learned that there was such a terrifying Synchro Killer as the Machine Emperor in the world.

At this moment, Enjo Mukuro walked over and chatted with Fudo Yusei and the others. Sherry Leblanc and Izayoi Aki were classmates at Duel Academy, so the two were finally able to catch up.

Gazing at the boundless starry sky and the lights outside the window, You Qing was still pondering in his mind.

The Ghost was a plan implemented by one of the "Three Emperors of Taiyi" to facilitate the completion of the circuit.

Based on the previous timeline, forcing duelists to fight using dueling machines to stimulate power and form circuits was not successful.

But now, Taiichi still did it.

So there are two possibilities. One is that the combined entity of the three emperors, Apollia, still acts like a subordinate, serving Zone and only completing tasks without delving into the purpose of the plan, while Zone obeys the orders of a higher-level boss behind the scenes.

The second possibility is that their plan has changed, and the ghost's role is completely different from before...

You Qing knew very well that Project Ghost could only be fully activated by the program designed by "Bruno," also known as "Antinomi."

While it's unknown whether Antinomi will design a duel program that perfectly fits Ghost's operations, judging from the timing, Antinomi will probably appear at this party very soon.
Even in the third timeline, this guy finally showed up.

You Qing waited quietly, envisioning countless possibilities in his mind to face the unpredictable future.

Just then, the roar of a heavy D-wheel rang out, followed by the sound of shattering glass, as a punk-styled super-heavy motorcycle crashed directly into the clubhouse!

"Splash splash ...
