Yu-Gi-Oh! 5Ds: The Path of Evolution

A dazzling card holder floated on the blue-glowing panel.

What is this?

Guan Bai opened the card pack description.

【Crimson Stardust Special Card Pack】

[The card, derived from the afterglow of the Red Dragon, may contain magical power.]

Guan Bai understood immediately; this stemmed from the influence of the Red Dragon's power!

The power of the Red Dragon that Kanpaku encountered up close in the stadium was captured by the system and turned into a card pack!

He looked at the card holder, feeling a surge of excitement.

Red Dragon Printing Factory is world-famous.

It's not unreasonable for me to benefit from this and get some good cards, right?

Radiant Change, Flowing Sky? Or perhaps the Waste Accelerator, the Curator?

Regardless of the type of card, whether it's real or fake...

Open it!

A dazzling flash of colored light, and five cards flew out!

Five cards were placed side by side in front of Kanpaku.

Guan Bai's gaze was immediately drawn to two of the cards.

Shining Dragon Stardust, Crimson Demon Dragon!

This is the ace up from the manga Yusei and Jack.

While the effect of the Shining Dragon is not as good as that of the Stardust Dragon, it is still a decent 8-star white dragon for staying on the field.

However, the effects of Yanmolong and Honglianmolong are quite different in their own way.

With these two cards, plus the Allied Lamp Monster I drew before, Kanpaku now has three usable eight-star general-purpose cards!

It was like rain after a long drought.

The Dragon Rider deck, in particular, is like a fish in water!

With the addition of the qualified extras, its eight-star synchronization system can finally unleash its full power!

The changes to the system are not just limited to adding a card pack.

After analyzing part of the Red Dragon's power, a new function has been added to its section.

That's the card wishing function.

The name sounds like a gacha system in some games, but it's not.

Its foundation lies in the system's own duel incentive mechanism.

Therefore, this feature remains as simple and straightforward as ever.

It can be described in just two sentences.

Choose any card as your wish card.

If you win three consecutive duels, you will receive three of the selected wish cards.

In other words, now, if you win a duel with Kanpaku, in addition to winning a card pack, you can also choose a card to have three of each after a three-win streak!

It can bypass the card pack mechanism and directly specify the required key card or general-purpose card.

This feature will greatly accelerate the card collection speed of Kanpaku!

The faster you collect cards, the stronger your deck becomes; the faster you achieve a winning streak, the faster you collect cards.

This is a positive cycle!

As long as you fight enough duels, you can get card freedom!

Of course, this is a vision for the future.

It's not possible for Kanpaku to assemble a strong modern deck through prayers anytime soon.

After all, a well-functioning Yu-Gi-Oh! 2.0 deck requires a significantly higher concentration of its own archetype and a much wider range of versatile cards compared to decks from the old era.

Therefore, in order to better strengthen himself, Kanpaku still needs to make a plan for the next card collection.

Therefore, he thought he should first complete the Dragon Rider deck and then get the "Water Sword" Ice Barrier.

When the Dragon Ancestor of Ice Spirit Mountain appears, which expert in the world will be able to defeat him?

Therefore, Guan Bai decided to first adapt the Dark Steel Dragon small shaft to the Dragoon Regiment.

Several cards featuring Red-Eyes Wyvern and Dark Steel Dragon.

It can be added to the Dragon Rider deck to supplement Special Summon points.

The True Red-Eyes Wyvern has impressive attack power and a revival effect; the Dark Steel Dragon is a renowned Dragon Fist component.

Before it was incorporated into Dragon Fist, it was censored because its effects were too overpowered.

Kanpaku made a decision.

He chose Red-Eyes Dark Steel Dragon as his first wish card.

After building his deck for a while, Kanpaku closed his eyes, lay down on the bed, and drifted off to sleep.

……

Early the next morning.

Yu Xing bid farewell to Long Ya and his sister.

Kanpaku also took the opportunity to say goodbye to the two children.

Longya looked at Guan Bai and Youxing with reluctance, his voice trailing off with a drawn-out tone of unwillingness.

"Oh—you're leaving so soon?"

He had originally planned to have a good chat with Kanpaku and Yusei about Duel Monsters!

Meet fellow duelists you encounter on a narrow path, duel together, grow together, defeat powerful enemies, and embark on the path to becoming a legendary duelist.

—Did such a beautiful dream die on the very next day?

Longya was feeling down when he suddenly remembered something.

He ran to a cabinet, opened it, and took out a blue duel disk.

"Come and duel with me, shall we?"

This was the last resort Longya could think of!

He had heard from his friends that duelists never refuse a duel invitation!

"If I win, you can stay, okay?"

He waved his arms, and the dueling disk he was wearing almost fell off his arm because it didn't fit properly.

Yusei was touched by Ryua's serious expression.

This kind of passion between duelists is what moves him the most.

Moreover, Longya's appearance reminded him of his childhood—the time he spent with Crow and Jack.

He crouched down and carefully adjusted the size of the duel disk for Longya.

Looking at Yusei's serious expression, Ryuya felt as if she had caught a cool breeze on a hot day.

My initial anxiety gradually subsided.

Ryuya was touched by Yusei's gentle actions.

Despite his seemingly carefree attitude, he is actually exceptionally sensitive in this regard.

His parents were busy, and he lived with his younger sister for many years. He actually longed for the care and attention of his elders.

Although his younger sister Long Ke is more mature than him, she sometimes gives him the feeling of being an older sister.

His sister will always be his sister, someone he, as her older brother, needs to protect.

If Long Ke always takes care of him, then Long Ya himself will become disappointed in himself.

But Yusei is different; he's a reliable adult.

Therefore, Ryuya inevitably developed a brotherly dependence on Yusei.

Coming to his senses, Long Ya exclaimed excitedly.

"So, you've agreed to my request, right?"

Yusei nodded affirmatively at the determined boy.

He stood up, looked at Guan Bai, and smiled.

"Then let's have a duel!"

Kanpaku was somewhat surprised, not expecting Yusei to give him this duel opportunity.

However, given this situation, he wouldn't refuse the opportunity to earn cards.

Longya excitedly led the group outside to the rooftop garden.

There is a medium-sized swimming pool here, and a few green trees dotting the landscape.

Kanpaku and Ryuya stood facing each other by the pool.

"Duel!"

【Longya LP: 4000】

[Kanpaku LP: 4000]

We'll let Ryuya have the first attack; even the Kanpaku is the kind of person who lets the kids have the first chance.

"You really want me to go first? That's great!"

Longya grinned and laughed happily.

He swung his right fist in place, striking a pose he had conceived that looked cool.

"My turn, draw a card!"

"My Normal Summoning: Transformer - Cellphone!"

A gold-plated phone flew out of the dimensional portal, transformed and reformed above Longya's head, and with a clang, it became a warrior in a battle stance!
