Yu-Gi-Oh!: Don't you have your own cards?

"It hurts! It hurts so much! My head hurts so much!"

You Tian clutched his head, grimacing as he awoke from his unconsciousness.

"Where is this?"

A cold sensation came from under his buttocks.

Looking around, he found himself sitting on a park bench. People were coming and going, but no one seemed to notice him.

The unfamiliar surroundings left him quite bewildered.

He vaguely remembered that before he lost consciousness, he seemed to be in a card shop, playing Yu-Gi-Oh!

That night, a new short-haired girl joined the shop and specifically challenged him to a duel...

You Tianxia subconsciously raised his left hand, wanting to rub his chin.

"Huh?! What's this?!"

Suddenly, he noticed that he was wearing something on his left arm that card players longed for!

"Hiss~ Isn't this the Duel Disk from Yu-Gi-Oh!?"

You Tian was somewhat surprised, but before he could do anything, a loud and somewhat familiar voice came from above.

"Welcome to Duel City, fellow duelists!"

You Tian looked up.

Holy crap, an airship?!

What shocked him even more was that a large screen was hanging below the airship. The voice he had just heard was coming from the person on that screen.

However, You Tian seemed to recognize the person on the screen as well.

With short brown hair and an anti-gravity cape, isn't that Seto Kaiba?!

Have I... been transported to the world of Yu-Gi-Oh! DM?!

Suddenly, a wave of memories, accompanied by a feeling of dizziness, washed over me.

Words like "traveler," "the three Phantom Gods," and "seize" echoed in his mind like ghostly whispers.

"Traveler from another world, go and seize the Three Egyptian Gods!"

"Once you have collected all three Phantom God Cards, He will send you back to your original world."

……

Wardfa?

You Tian looked completely bewildered.

The plot development was so bizarre that You Tian didn't know where to begin complaining.

After a period of time to process the information, he finally fully understood his current situation.

Now, I must have indeed traveled to the world of Yu-Gi-Oh! DM.

The current location, barring any unforeseen circumstances, is the famous Domino Town from Yu-Gi-Oh!, and the timeline is right at the beginning of Duel City.

As for why he traveled here, the reason is currently unknown.

But it seems that someone promised that if he could collect the three Egyptian Gods, he could return to his original world.

"Is this asking me to steal the three Egyptian God cards from Pharaoh and Seto Kaiba's mouths?"

If that's the case, then my Duel Disk and Card Deck were prepared by the owner of that voice in my mind.

"Who was that person again? I can't remember."

You Tianshi rubbed his temples, trying to recall more information.

"Hey! You over there, you're a duelist too, right?! Whoosh whoosh whoosh! Let's duel!"

Suddenly, a sleazy voice interrupted You Tian's thoughts.

He turned around and saw a guy dressed in green with thick-rimmed glasses holding a duel disk, looking at him with ill intent.

"An insect, a feathered moth?!" You Tian exclaimed in surprise.

That's right, standing in front of him is none other than the first king to be whipped in Yu-Gi-Oh! DM—the insect moth!

The moth was somewhat surprised that this guy actually recognized it.

No wonder, after all, he was a former All-Japan champion, so he should have some fame.

Judging from the surprised look on the other person's face, they are probably one of his fans.

Unexpectedly, he had only wanted to find a rookie to win Rea and the chip before waiting for Jonouchi to challenge him to a duel, and that's how he ended up meeting his own fan.

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh!" Yu Moth chuckled lewdly.

"So you're my fan. That makes things easier. Just hand over Leia and the chip, and I can even sign an autograph for you."

You Tian was somewhat speechless.

What kind of fan? This insect moth is just as narcissistic as it is in the animation.

However, this seems to be an opportunity.

Although the insect moth never won a single battle in the original story and its fighting style was somewhat despicable, it still possessed considerable strength.

It represents the dividing line between the strength of casual players and NPCs.

Currently, apart from the strange message in his mind, Yu Tian has absolutely no clue as to why he was transported to the world of Yu-Gi-Oh!

So he decided to act as the message suggested and participate in the Duel City Tournament to obtain the three Egyptian God cards.

Then we'll see if we can recall more details.

Why not give it a try and see the approximate strength of the duelists from the original work?

and many more!

You Tian realized a problem.

What is my deck?

He quickly took out the deck from the Duel Disk and started looking at it.

Oh, I see. They're all early-generation cards.

Come to think of it, even playing cards requires basic logic.

I'm not Uncle Paradox, how could I possibly use a ridiculous fake card from later generations to beat up the King of Nonsense?

You Tian looked through his initial deck and shook his head.

Look at these cards now, how simple and unpretentious they are!

He casually flipped through the cards in the deck.

【Earth Spirit Master Aus】

Effect: [If this card is flipped face-up, you can target 1 EARTH monster your opponent controls. While that monster is face-up, it gains control of the targeted monster.]

Oh, so it's a Spirit Envoy deck?

You Tian nodded and flipped over the next card.

【Wind Spirit Envoy Wei Yin】.

really!

He continued to look through the remaining cards.

The Substitute Colossus

Effect: [Flip: Your opponent selects 1 monster they are controlling. Trade the selected monster and the control of this card.]

Ok?

You Tian frowned.

He flipped over the remaining cards again.

[The Enchanting Giant Flower and Grass], [The Mind-Catching Demon], [The Possessed Blood Soul], [The Throne Invader], [The Alien from the Outside World]...

You Tian's expression gradually became strange.

The monsters in his deck are indeed some of the simpler effects from the original series.

But the effects of these cards seem to be of the same type.

In simpler terms, these cards all have the effect of controlling the opponent's monsters.

Players jokingly refer to these types of cards as: Minotaur!

"Hiss~" You Tian gasped again.

My deck seems pretty "powerful"!

"Hey, you!" Yu Moth, who was on the other side, was getting annoyed that Yu Tian was ignoring her.

He made up his mind: even if this guy was his fan, he would definitely teach him a lesson through a duel!

"Looks like you don't take me, the All-Japan Champion, seriously at all! Then let me teach you a lesson in how to show respect to a champion through a duel!"

With that, Yumo set up the Duel Disk.

You Tian also came to his senses.

Uh……

He smiled helplessly.

Okay.

Since things have come to this, let's duel first!

(A note beforehand: Due to numerous inconsistencies in the original Yu-Gi-Oh! storyline, I can only try to align it with the OCG. However, cards like the Egyptian God Cards, Orichalcos, and the Treasure Card from Heaven would be too weak if their effects were strictly based on the OCG. Therefore, for the sake of a compelling storyline, I will describe some card effects based on the anime or manga.)

(P.S.: The author doesn't know how to play Yu-Gi-Oh!, this is just something I wrote based on assumptions.)
