Is this the world of card dealers? Yada thieves!

"How is that possible!?"

"Ha, there are differences between the suns. Do you think you can withstand the midday sun just because you face the setting sun? Fool!" Hayato said without changing his expression. "My power surpasses yours; it's as natural as exhaling after inhaling!"

Bakula frowned: "Tch, what are you so smug about? You've only gained a slight advantage. Don't forget what I just said: my [Diabund] has completely adapted to your attacks, so they won't cause any damage!"

As Bakula finished speaking, Diaband, which was enveloped in the flames of Ra's Winged Dragon, shook its wings, and the flames that were wrapped around its body were suddenly dispersed and fell onto the surrounding rocks. The scorching sun fire easily burned through the solid rocks, but Diaband, which had just been completely enveloped in flames, was completely unharmed.

If we were to record [Diabund]'s ability as a monster effect on a card, it would likely be that if this card is destroyed, it is Special Summoned back to the field, and the same effects on it are permanently negated.

Unless it is killed completely in one fell swoop as Bakula said, just like Yami Yugi did with Ra's Winged Dragon before time reversal, Diaband is practically immortal.

Even though Hayato's Ragnaros seemed to be wielding even greater power than the Ragnaros summoned by Yami Yugi, it still couldn't break through Diaband's defensive resistance!

"You've already attacked, haven't you? Now it's my turn, Hayato!" Bakura said with a wicked grin, pointing at Hayato. "Go and take revenge on that incarnation of the sun, [Diabund]! No need to defend, unleash the full power of Spiral Wave!"

Diaband, upon receiving the order, concentrated all his strength and prepared to attack Ra's Winged Dragon. Although it wasn't a stone monster summoned using the power of the Gladiator's Disk, since it was a spirit directly summoned by Hayato from the card, if Ra's Winged Dragon were injured, the impact on Hayato would be even greater than if it were wearing the Gladiator's Disk.

If Ra's Winged Dragon of Ra is killed by Diaband, Hayato's situation will be even worse than having all his "Souls" on the Gladiator's Disk completely wiped out!

—Of course, all of this is hypothetical.

Just as Bakula gave the order that Diaband should not make any preparations, a phantom suddenly leaped out from the dispelled flames of Ra's Winged Dragon and rushed straight towards Bakula. In the blink of an eye, the attack closed to within ten meters of Bakula!

That was Hayato's [Spiritual Exophysis]. He summoned it simultaneously with Ra's Winged Dragon of Ra, concealing it within Ra's flames to hide its presence, and now it charged straight at Bakura.

Although Bakula immediately had Diaband change the direction of its attack, the impact of the "Spiral Wave" passed directly through the body of the "Spiral Exophysis" and had no effect on it at all. At this moment, the distance between it and Bakula was less than five meters!

"Tch, the old man's memory of you being a spirit awakened from within? You actually awakened a spirit using a card you stole from me, and the disgusting nature of your ability is just as awful as yours." Bakura remained unfazed. "However, I was prepared all along. I knew you were not the type to fight someone head-on!"

"With the 'transparency' effect obtained from Mahad's [Shadow Ghoul], and the blessing of the [Millennial Wisdom Wheel], you still won't be able to touch me!"

A burst of light erupted from the [Millennial Wisdom Wheel] on his chest, and the next moment, the ethereal [Spiritual Exophysical Body] touched Bakura's transparent body.

Then, to Bakura's astonishment, the Millennium Wisdom Wheel lost its light in an instant. Its transparency was instantly dispelled as soon as it was completed. The Spirit Exophysical Body, whose face was identical to Hayato's, revealed a mocking smile, grabbed the Millennium Wisdom Wheel, and then kicked Bakura right in the center of his chest!

Chapter 755 The Millennium Wisdom Wheel Likes Me, Hayato Kobayashi!

"boom!"

Bakula, who had just been so arrogant, was kicked in the chest and sent flying backward, crashing into the rock wall.

Although Hayato only jokingly refers to his [Spiritual Exophysis] as a "stand-in," the two do indeed share many similarities. The very characteristic that "only Hayato can attack others, and others cannot attack the [Spiritual Exophysis]" is enough for him to create all sorts of fun.

Even someone as powerful as Diaband, who has acquired enough power to resist or even suppress "gods," is still unable to touch the psychic exosome and can only let it approach Bakura at will and succeed in attacking him.

The only regret is that [Summoning Exophysis] is not a monster card but a spirit awakened from a magic card. Its attack power is limited to Hayato's own power limit, so being able to beat up Bakura is already the limit.

If this were Honda or Jonouchi's awakened [Summoning Exophysis], it would be a fatal blow. Not to mention a fancy three-page barrage of Ora Ora Ora, a single punch through the chest wouldn't be out of the question. Unfortunately, it can't be replaced.

However, it doesn't matter anymore, I've already achieved my goal.

The [Spiritual Exophysical Body] returned to Hayato's side and handed him the [Millennium Wisdom Wheel] that it had taken from Bakura's chest. Looking at the golden disc in his hand, Hayato smiled with satisfaction.

Hayato was satisfied, but Bakura, whose proud ability had been inexplicably broken and who had been kicked around, was not satisfied at all.

As soon as he got up, he immediately brought Diaband back to his side to prevent him from being ambushed again like before. At the same time, he looked at Hayato, who was receiving the Millennium Wisdom Wheel from the Spirit Apophysis.

"What on earth is going on?!"

Bakula's voice was filled with incomprehension and resentment.

Hayato weighed the Millennium Wisdom Wheel in his hand and said with a relaxed expression, "This is a spirit that I awakened from my Spirit Aspect. It is the embodiment of my soul. External attacks cannot interfere with it in the slightest, but I can let it attack others freely."

"I've heard about that blatant double standard before, but did anyone ask you about it?!" Bakura suppressed his anger, glaring at the Millennium Wisdom Wheel in Hayato's hand. "I clearly used the power of 'invisibility' just now, so why was that power suddenly deactivated? What did you do to my Millennium Wisdom Wheel, Kobayashi Hayato?!"

But faced with Bakura's rage, Hayato calmly said, "What nonsense are you talking about? What do you mean by your 'Millennium Wisdom Wheel'? Isn't this clearly my 'Millennium Wisdom Wheel'? This is utter nonsense; I can't understand it."

As he spoke, Hayato tied a knot in the rope that had just been torn, and put the Millennium Wisdom Ring around his neck, saying, "Just now, the Millennium Wisdom Ring sensed the bond and connection between us, so it refused to be used by you."

"【Millennial Wisdom Wheel】, you like me, Kobayashi Hayato!"

Imitating a man who lost because of a gust of wind, Hayato gave Bakura a thumbs-up, but with the thumb pointing downwards, "Alright, enjoy your journey to hell."

“How could such a stupid thing happen!” Bakura said angrily, completely disbelieving Hayato’s reasoning.

[Millennial Wisdom Wheel] You like Hayato Kobayashi, so you refuse to be used by me? That kind of thing…

"I can not accept!"

As Bakula shouted angrily, Diaband beside him attacked again to vent his user's anger, spreading a spiral wave. However, Ra's Winged Dragon beside Hayato immediately spat out flames in retaliation.

At the same time, a power that Bakura was extremely familiar with spread from Hayato, who had put on the [Millennium Wisdom Ring]!

In an instant, as Hayato opened a barrier encompassing dozens of meters around him, both Diaband and Ra's Winged Dragon disappeared from everyone's sight.

"This is... Mahad's move!?" Bakula recognized the move. It was a trick Mahad had used to ambush Bakula in the underground magic training ground, but Bakula had learned it after obtaining the [Millennium Wisdom Wheel]. It was a technique that pushed the power of the [Millennium Wisdom Wheel] to its limit.

But how come Kobayashi Hayato was able to learn how to use it so quickly after just wearing it? Could it be that, as he said, the "Millennium Wisdom Wheel" likes him?

"I never expected the [Millennium Wisdom Wheel] to have such a move. Although it's a little difficult, it's still very easy for someone with divine talent like me to learn it!" Hayato said proudly. "Without [Diabund], Bakura, you're just an ordinary person."

"There's only one person on the other side, let's charge together!"

As the power of the Millennium Wisdom Wheel was unleashed, the power of the surrounding spirits was dispelled, leaving Bakura alone to face the menacing crowd, including the agile Priest Set, and the nimble Honda and Jonouchi, who looked like formidable fighters.

A bead of cold sweat trickled down Bakula's forehead.

My teeth are so white! Until just now, this was clearly my advantage. I didn't mess around at all. How come I feel like I'm doomed again in the blink of an eye?

Damn it, hand-to-hand combat with these brutes is not my forte at all. Last time, I only managed to kill Mahad thanks to the Time Stop Camp's gadgets, but even if I had another Time Stop, I still couldn't take down so many people here!

No, I can't stop here. As long as I keep moving forward, I still have a future. Although this scheme has backfired, as long as I'm alive, I can always make a comeback!

"Hmph, Hayato Kobayashi, you're lucky this time. You won't be so fortunate next time!" Seeing Seth and Jonouchi approaching, Bakura, despite having decided to run away, still stubbornly retorted, "You got lucky with your life!"

Then, Bakula turned and ran away without looking back. The more arrogant he was when he made those threats, the more pathetic his escape was.

The group was about to give chase, but just then, Hayato breathed a sigh of relief the moment Bakura disappeared from sight and sat down on the ground, panting heavily.

From the very beginning, Hayato's confident demeanor was all an act. Don't forget that he used the power of Ra's Winged Dragon of Ra without the Gladiator's Disk. Even if Ra's Winged Dragon of Ra itself didn't mind being used by Hayato, the burden of that power was unavoidable. It can be said that just summoning Ra's Winged Dragon of Ra to clash with Diaband's energy was already quite exhausting for Hayato.

However, Hayato had to appear completely at ease and simultaneously operate multiple systems, sending the [Spiritual Exophysis] to ambush Bakura and steal the [Millennium Wisdom Wheel]. Only in this way would Bakura truly believe that Hayato still had the power to control the [Ra's Winged Dragon].

As for the nonsense that "[Millennium Wisdom Wheel] likes Hayato," it's just Hayato talking nonsense. Bakura's "invisibility" ability suddenly disappeared because Hayato already knew that [Ra's Winged Dragon] had the ability to passively nullify the power of "invisibility." He had read the script.

It's impossible that the [Millennial Wisdom Wheel] actually likes him.

Unaware that the Millennium Wisdom Ring on his chest had flashed with golden light, Hayato, who was wearing the Millennium Wisdom Ring, also blinked at the same time.

Chapter 756 Seahorse: This is very scientific

"Mr. Seahorse, breakfast is ready!"

A voice reached the seahorse's ears, waking him from his sleep. As soon as he opened his eyes, the seahorse saw a chubby face close to his side.

If it were anyone else, they might be startled to see such a dark face appear before them as soon as they were woken up, thinking they had been transported to a cotton garden. However, the seahorse remained calm as always, looking at the chubby guy in front of it with a blank expression.

"What did you just say, Bobasha?"

“Bobasha just said, ‘Mr. Seahorse, breakfast is ready,’ right?” The chubby face shrank back a little, repeating what he had just said, and as if showing off his morning’s achievements, he raised the pile of fruit and bread he was holding in his arms a little, his mustache twitching with the movement.

Ignoring the seahorse's cold attitude, the chubby man named "Bobasa" placed the food he was carrying on a stone table nearby and picked up a piece of bread, putting it in his mouth. "Eat up, Mr. Seahorse~"

Bread that most people would need to slice and bite into, was devoured in one bite by Bobasha's enormous mouth, which was commensurate with his size. He swallowed it without even chewing and was ready to eat the next serving. Although the large amount of food Bobasha brought filled the entire table, it was hard to say how much would be left over at the speed of his eating.

Therefore, the seahorse had no choice but to come to the table and start eating, eating a piece of Bobasha bread with a few pieces of fruit and filling its stomach with a bite of bread.

Holding a grape in front of him, the seahorse said with a touch of emotion, "It's amazing that I can touch a grape from thousands of years ago in this state."

"Huh? What does 'this state' mean?" Bobasha patted his stomach as if he was full, but then picked up a whole bunch of grapes and put them in his mouth. When he pulled them out, only the stems were left. He swallowed the grape flesh, skin and seeds, in one gulp.

However, the seahorse only glanced at Bobasha's unique way of eating, put a grape in its mouth, and said, "Hmph, need I say more? The reason I can appear in this ancient world, which is probably from who knows how many years ago, is because when I used that thing called 'D Wheel' before, it malfunctioned and made me enter a state of quantum entanglement."

"It's normal that the rules of time in the quantum realm are different from those in the normal world. I, who entered the quantum realm from the future, left the quantum realm at this point in time because of my quantum entanglement. Theoretically, as long as I create a device that can untangle my current entanglement, I can return to the point in time when I entered the quantum realm."

The seahorse used the most accessible language it could muster to describe the scene, completely ignoring Bobasa's cryptic explanations that made her eyes practically spin like mosquito coils.

"However, the problem is that before I break free from the state of quantum entanglement, I do not belong to this era, nor to the future. I am in the past, but people in the past cannot contact me or see me. I also cannot interact with things in this era. I spent the whole day yesterday confirming this."

The seahorse calmly said, but he sealed away the look of shock he had when a running child walked right through his body after he entered the royal city yesterday, preventing himself from recalling it. Then, he looked at Bobasha, who had a silly look on her face, and his expression became serious. "But you can see my presence."

"Not only that, but you, like me who is in a state of quantum entanglement, will not be seen or touched by people of this era. If that were all, I would at most suspect that you are someone who accidentally entered a state of quantum entanglement like me. But you can take things of this era at your own will and even make them into a state that I can touch."

The seahorse stared at Boba, paused, and asked, "Bobasha, who exactly are you?"

Although the seahorse had built up the atmosphere to a rather serious level after a series of build-ups, and with his questioning, someone with poor mental fortitude would probably have already honestly revealed everything.

However, when Boba heard the seahorse finally finish its incomprehensible explanation and ask a question, she just smiled foolishly and said, "Hey, Boba doesn't know."

As she spoke, Bobasha opened her mouth again, scooped up a lot of food from the table and put it into her mouth, leaving the table spotless.

In fact, Seahorse had already asked Bobasha this question yesterday, and he had used the exact same method to get away with it. Unable to tell whether Bobasha was genuinely stupid or pretending, Seahorse snorted coldly, didn't press the matter, and sat down again.

Yesterday, after arriving in this era, he finally managed to get food to fill his stomach after meeting Boba. Although his intuition told him that this guy must have some important information that he didn't know about but hadn't revealed, Kaiba was actually a cold-faced but warm-hearted person and couldn't bring himself to force Boba, who had been kind to him, to confess.

Since Bobasha wouldn't tell him, he might as well let him be. Anyway, once he resolved the "quantum entanglement" state in his body, he would be able to return to the real world. What secrets Bobasha held was none of Kaiba's business.

As for the idea of ​​finally arriving thousands of years ago and wanting to see the many unsolved mysteries of the ancients, it wouldn't pique Kaiba's curiosity at all. After all, Seto Kaiba has always been someone who looks to the future rather than dwelling on the past. He finds even tightening a few screws on a new invention more interesting than collecting antiques.

Thinking of this, Seahorse walked to the window and glanced at the weather outside. Strangely enough, just when Boba had woken him, the sky was full of dark clouds, but now it was clearing up again. It was quite peculiar.

The seahorse rubbed its eyes and looked at the Winged Dragon Ra, which was gradually disappearing in the direction outside the city, incredulous at what it had just seen.

That's right, it's Ra's Winged Dragon, isn't it? I shouldn't be so tired as to be hallucinating, which means there was just a Ra's Winged Dragon outside. Ra's Winged Dragon, one of the "Three Egyptian Gods" that Kaiba only saw in Kobayashi Hayato's hands!?

Could it be that Duel Monsters exist in this era? I've suddenly changed my mind!

Kaiba suddenly abandoned the idea of ​​returning to the modern era. If he used this era to train his monster-fighting skills, wouldn't he have gained a few more years of dueling experience than Hayato and Yugi, who should be traveling the world with Pegasus, the gullible guy?

Once I return to the modern world, won't I be able to slaughter everyone in sight? The advantage is on my side!

The excited seahorse thought to itself, then turned back to eat a couple more bites of bread, only to find the table so clean it reflected light, and Bobasha sucking on her fingers.

Chapter 757 My Heart and My Actions Are as Clear as a Mirror

After Bakura escaped, since Yami Yugi, Hayato, and the others were not in good condition, the rest of the group did not give chase.

Hayato and Shada are alright; they're just a little exhausted from overusing their spirit powers.

Xia Da's [Anka Kuriboh] was a newly awakened Pokémon, but the battle forced her to repeatedly squander its power. Hayato was also using the power of [Ra's Winged Dragon] alone for the first time without the support of items such as [Millennium Wisdom Wheel]. Moreover, it was not in the form of a stone tablet, which was the mainstream of this era, but in the form of a card. The conversion efficiency was too poor, so it was temporarily put on hold.

The biggest problem is with Yami Yugi. In his battle with Bakura, his "Souls" were reduced to zero in one fell swoop, which is much more serious than losing all his Life Points in a duel. Even if we don't compare him to Dark Yugi, whose soul is erased by darkness if he loses, the situation is almost the same.
