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

“Boom——————————————”

“Beep beep beep————————”

【Gandora X, the Destroyer Dragon, Attack Power: 0 → 4000】

[Halald, LP: 4000→0]

This is……

Is that the strength of the first Duel King?!

As the smoke cleared, Halad, lying sprawled on the ground, stared in astonishment at the pitch-black dragon!
There have been many rumors that the true King of Duels was an unnamed king who had lived for three thousand years, and that Yugi Muto was merely a vessel for his soul.

But ever since the "Dark Side of the Dimension" incident ended, everyone has acknowledged Yugi Muto's strength, including Seto Kaiba, who used to look down on him the most.

Halad felt sore all over and couldn’t stand up for a moment.

He possesses the power of the Rune's Eye, yet he was defeated to this extent...

This is enough to show that even though Yugi Muto's body is currently weak, his mental and spiritual power is incredibly strong, almost to the point of materializing the impact of battle!

"Hallad, are you alright?!" Dragan's voice came through the smoke and dust.

"Don't worry about me! Block the attack first!!" Halad shouted. For the sake of their misunderstood path to salvation, they had to win this duel.

However, even if Dragan hadn't been distracted, he absolutely couldn't have stopped the attack from the Destroyer Dragon Gandora X.

"boom----------------"

With Yugi Muto's shout, the Destroyer Dragon Gandora X, whose attack power had increased to 4000, unleashed its devastating demonic flame breath, emptying Dragan's LP!
With just two cards, he defeated two of his three opponents.

Now, only Braver remains as a duelist with any health points. He grits his teeth and stands trembling in the shadow of the dragon.

Yugi Muto finally turned his gaze to him, and a card was drawn from his hand.

"So...they still have other tricks up their sleeves..."

Braver was desperate.

They couldn't even defeat Yugi Muto, the gatekeeper, so how could they possibly defeat Atem, the true duelist behind the gates of Hades?!
however……

The last card was not drawn from Yugi Muto's hand.

“Crash————————”

"Boom..."

The cards scattered, and that card was ultimately not played. Exhausted, Yugi Muto collapsed heavily to his knees, then his body gave way and he slumped down.

Lying on the scorching ground, Yugi Muto could hear his own heart pounding. His vision blurred rapidly, and in the flickering firelight, he seemed to see the duel from decades ago...

"Mr. Yugi Muto!!"

The last member of Ragnarok's team, Braver, exclaimed and immediately ran over.

The duel was over the moment Yugi Muto fell.

Ragnarok knew that they had absolutely no chance of defeating Atum; this path was simply impassable for them.

Just as Brave stepped onto the altar of the gate where Yugi Muto was, in an instant, the gate to the underworld shone with an immortal, bright golden light!
The three members of the Ragnarok team retreated simultaneously, and Braver quickly pulled himself down from the steps.

“Another me…” Yugi Muto’s voice was barely audible, and hot tears slid down his cheeks.

The elderly man gazed at the familiar figure that appeared in the light.

That person still looked like a teenager.

However, Yugi Muto himself is no longer young.

The king's unyielding majesty was like a real force; under the golden light, the Ragnarok team could only muster the courage to look, but dared not meet the king's gaze.

Wang walked step by step to Yugi Muto's side, his gaze incredibly gentle. The two looked at each other, their eyes filled with smiles.

Yugi Muto's breathing grew weaker and weaker. He knew his life was about to end. Years ago, the doctor had given him an ultimatum. Today's duel was the last light and heat of his life.

Atum bent down and gently lifted Yugi Muto from the ground, then turned and walked step by step toward the Gates of the Underworld.

Halad and his two companions were extremely unwilling, but dared not stop it.

Seeing that Atum was about to disappear again, Halad finally mustered up his courage and shouted:
"King! The true King of Kings!!"

"This world is about to..."

But before he could finish speaking, the king's glance back rendered him speechless.

Atum quietly surveyed the three of them, then placed one hand on Yugi Muto's shoulder, letting him lean against his shoulder, while extending his other hand forward.

Halad and the other two stared wide-eyed, their hearts filled with fear.

But Atum did not harm them. Three beams of divine light of different colors descended from the sky and struck the ground, then transformed into three cards that floated in mid-air.

Those three cards are none other than the three Egyptian God cards from the ancient Egyptian dueling civilization—Ra the Winged Dragon, Obelisk the Tormentor, and Osiris the Sky Dragon!!!

Halad and his group understood perfectly well that they, who worshipped the Eye of Rune, were completely unable to control these three cards.

"Your Majesty...we understand..."

Braver reacted quickly.

"We... will definitely find a duelist who can shoulder everything!!"

"Then……"

"Bring the three Egyptian God cards to them!!!"

Wang Jingjing glanced at them, then said nothing more, and disappeared step by step with Muto Yugi into the Gate of the Underworld.

The light faded, leaving only three God Cards floating in the tomb.

After the duel, Halad and the others understood Atem's meaning: by returning the three God Cards to the world, he was lending his dueling power to help the Duel World overcome its final crisis.

Halad and his two companions' "Twilight Ritual" plan could no longer continue, but seeing the miracle and hope in Yugi Muto, their fighting spirit was rekindled.

After a long period of contemplation and rest in the tomb, Halad and Dragan finally regained their strength and stood up. They respectfully approached the three Egyptian God cards and dealt with them with the utmost reverence.

But in that instant, the immense pressure, like Mount Tai, forced them to their knees.

“Huh…Huh!!!”

Those three cards were incredibly heavy; to be precise, they could barely withstand the pressure of carrying two different systems of God cards at the same time.

"But even so..."

"We must also bring these three cards back..."

Harald struggled to his feet, bearing the weight of a thousand pounds, and walked step by step out of the tomb.

"But can the Dragon Markers control the Three Egyptian Gods?!" Braver asked through gritted teeth, bracing himself against the divine might.

Halad shook his head, his eyes seemingly reflecting a familiar figure—the only answer in his heart.

"No... not the Dragon Seal bearers..."

"But there is one person who can!!"

"He is a duelist who transcends light..."

"at the same time……"

"A duelist who has transcended dimensions!!" (End of Chapter)
