The protagonist of the Yu-Gi-Oh! world might be the same person.

The energy explosion instantly engulfed both monsters, blasting them into dust.

A moment later, the light faded, and everyone opened their eyes to find that there were no monsters left on either side of the field.

"You actually defeated my Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon! Well done, Jaden Yuki!" Kaiba Kamen Rider changed the subject. "However, this means you have no monsters on your field, zero cards in your hand, and your life points are practically nonexistent."

"Next turn, as long as I draw a monster card, I can kill you."

However, Judai chuckled softly, "Unfortunately, you don't have a next round..."

"Nani?"

Seahorse Man paused for a moment.

"Don't forget, I still have a face card that I haven't used yet."

Jaden immediately pressed the button on the Duel Disk, "Open the face-down card, activate the Trap Card [Hero Mark]!"

"When a monster you control is destroyed by battle, you can Special Summon 1 Level 4 or lower Elemental HERO monster from your hand or Deck."

"I Special Summon Elemental HERO Skywalker from my Deck and activate its monster effect upon its appearance, adding Elemental HERO Bubbleman to my hand."

He picked two cards directly from his deck and placed one of them on the Duel Disk.

【Elemental Hero Sky Warrior: Attack Power 1800】

[Yuki Jaden's hand cards: 0 → 1]

Looking at the warrior with propeller wings mounted on his back, Seahorse knew he had lost.

"That's it! Skyman attacks Seahorse Man directly!"

Skyman's attack instantly wiped out Seahorse's remaining health.

[Seahorse Warrior: LP800 → 0]

"I won! What an interesting duel!"

When Jaden uttered this catchphrase, it also meant that Kaiba had already lost.

Upon hearing this, Seahorse Man snorted coldly, "Hmph, is it interesting? I'll remember this humiliation of defeat!"

'Next time we meet, I won't go easy on you again.'

As for whether he won or lost this time, Haima Xia didn't really care.

After all, the loser is Kaiba Man, what does it have to do with me, Seto Kaiba?

Kaiba didn't continue interacting with Jaden and the others. As he walked deeper into the cave, he said, "This world is connected to yours. Close your eyes, feel it with strong willpower, and the path will naturally open!"

As soon as he finished speaking, his figure vanished without a trace.

The group looked at each other for a moment, and finally followed his instructions, closing their eyes and reciting silently.

"Please let us go back!"

The next moment, everyone felt a dizzying sensation as if the world was spinning.

When they opened their eyes again, the scene before them had returned to the steaming hot spring resort.

They remained relaxed and comfortable in the water.

Everything that just happened felt like a dream, filled with an unreal feeling, but Jaden and the others knew it wasn't a dream.

Marufuji Sho said blankly, "That person just now wasn't one of the Seven Stars, was he?"

"of course not."

Judai shook his head. "If I'm not mistaken, he is..."

He stopped talking at this point.

Hayato asked curiously, "Who is it?"

Judai paused for a moment, then shook his head: "Never mind, I won't say anything more."

Let's save that person some face.

Although he didn't voice his guess, Manjoume, who was standing to the side, also came up with the most likely and most unbelievable guess.

Kaiba Man is Seto Kaiba himself!

However, Seahorse Man has long since disappeared, and his true identity is impossible to verify.

......

Several days passed after the duel with Seahorse Man, and there was still no news from the Seven Stars Organization.

However, something interesting happened regarding the compensation issue for Duel Academy.

The troublemakers are the two older brothers of Manjoume Lightning, who are delusional and attempt to rule the business, political, and dueling worlds.

During this period, it is unknown what methods the other party used to lead President Kaiba to agree to the ownership of Duel Academy. Perhaps there is some secret deal between the Kaiba Group and the Manjoume Group.

Ultimately, it was decided to determine the Duel Academy's affiliation through a duel, with Manjoume Inazuma as the representative. This was the opponent chosen by his two older brothers, who would pit him against the beginner Manjoume Chosaku in a love-hate relationship. However, it was also stipulated that Manjoume Inazuma could only bring monsters with an attack power of 500 or less.

Upon hearing this request, Judai couldn't help but curse it as 'shameless'.

Of course, this requirement is nothing to be afraid of for Judai, since in his mind, low attack power is often abnormal.

Dare to look down on monsters with low attack? Jaden can easily pull out a bunch of zero-attack monsters and teach them a lesson.

Unfortunately, most natives don't understand this point, and even Manjoume Lightning himself isn't very confident.

Nevertheless, he accepted the challenge.

To this end, he went to look for low-attack monster cards and, accompanied by Jaden, found a large number of low-attack monsters in a dry well on the island.

Incidentally, I encountered the brothers of Disruption Yellow, and the spirits of Disruption Black and Disruption Green.

Jaden also gave Manjoume advice on deck building, teaching him to play defensive decks and fun tactics that involve battling with monsters that have low attack and high defense.

Give him a bunch of cards that allow him to fight using defense, such as [D2 Shield] and [Cross Counterattack].

After being trained by Jaden, he completely outmaneuvered his older brother during the duel. In the end, by combining the combination of "right hand holding a shield and left hand holding a sword" and "Triforce", he boosted the attack power of a "Great Charcoal 18" to 4100 points, instantly killing it.

In short, it was a trivial matter that was quickly resolved, and a few days later, the third Seven Stars finally arrived.

......

"Oh no! A tiger has appeared in the academy!"

Hayato the koala rushed into the principal's office, completely ignoring the principal, and instinctively looked at Jaden beside him: "What should we do, Jaden? It looks like everyone is being chased by tigers!"

Upon hearing this, Principal Samejima abruptly stood up. "Tiger?! How could there be a tiger?! The academy has already scouted this island; there shouldn't be any tigers around!"

Jaden immediately realized, "Since there are no tigers on the island, there's only one answer."

Asuka suddenly realized: "So, that tiger is a spirit, and the Seven Stars might have appeared!"

"There's no time to lose, Hayato-kun! Take us there to rescue them!"

"Oh, oh, okay!"

Judai and Asuka then left with him, leaving behind a pleased principal: 'Not bad, it seems Judai enjoys quite a high reputation at school.'

......

Before long, Jaden and Asuka followed Hayato into the forest, where a building resembling an ancient Roman amphitheater came into view.

The tiger Hayato mentioned was inside, and when they arrived, they saw Misawa looking miserable while he was carrying bricks.

Moreover, there are quite a few people here, many of whom are students who have inexplicably skipped class. Even Professor Chronos is working here, seemingly having been recruited by the owner of this place as a laborer.

Seeing Misawa working, Judai called out to him, "Mizawa!"

"Judai? Asuka?"

"What's going on here?"

In response to Judai's question, Misawa replied with a dejected look, "I'm sorry, Judai, I lost."

Roar--! !

Suddenly, a roar rang out, and a tiger with one eye blind appeared out of nowhere.

Misawa suddenly turned his head, looking at the direction the tiger had come from with a face full of shame and love. A muscular woman with dark skin slowly walked out.

Judai glanced at Misawa's expression, then sized up the newcomer, and muttered to himself, "Holy crap, I didn't expect Misawa, with his thick eyebrows and big eyes, to like tigresses? Does that mean he's a masochist?"

At that moment, the tiger ran over, intending to bite Judai and the others with its gaping maw.

The quick-thinking Jaden immediately kicked the tiger.

Ouch——!

The tiger was sent flying by Jaden's kick, which was imbued with the power of a spirit.

"Bass!"

The tigress rushed over to check and found that the tiger was not injured, so she breathed a sigh of relief.

Then she questioned Judai, "Who exactly are you?"

"Yujo Judai."

"Oh, so you're the strongest in the academy! I've heard so much about you! Let me introduce myself. My name is Tania, from the Amazon clan, and one of the Seven Stars!" Tania showed off her muscular arms. "Hmph, you're strong. I've set my sights on you. Come, be my man and conquer me!"

Chapter Seventy-Seven: Stealing a Man?!

Upon hearing that a "muscle Barbie" was proposing to Judai, the latter immediately got goosebumps.

"Ten generations!"

Upon hearing this, Asuka immediately hugged Judai's arm tightly, as if to assert her ownership.

Judai shook his head helplessly. Did he look like the kind of person who liked muscular women? He wasn't a masochist like Misawa.

So he directly rejected the other person: "Sorry, you're not my type!"

"Hey! How could this be?"

Tania deliberately adopted a affected tone, appearing coy and hesitant, which, combined with her muscular body, looked awkward no matter how you looked at it.

The Judai got goosebumps when he saw this: Don't touch me!

Meanwhile, Asuka pouted and whispered, "If I'm to your liking, will you leave me?"

"Uh... how could that be!"

Judai felt ashamed and offered some words of comfort to Asuka, who was acting like a little girl.

He coughed and turned his gaze back to the other side: "Tanya, after Misawa lost to you, the key to the Seven Star Gate is in your hands, right?"

Upon hearing this, Tania abandoned her frivolous demeanor and smiled, "That's right."

After receiving confirmation, Jaden immediately raised the Duel Disk in his left hand, "Then let's duel! I'm going to take back the key that Misawa lost!"

"Hahaha! Very good, you really are a man!"

Tania didn't care that her 'confession' was rejected. Perhaps the concept of love didn't even exist in her mind. As long as she won the duel, she would find a way to kidnap him.

"Then bring it on, you little man!"

"Uh... a little man?!"

Upon hearing this address, both Judai and Asuka felt awkward, their lips twitching involuntarily.

However, Asuka released Jaden's hand and stepped back to watch the duel from the sidelines.

Shortly after, Jaden took out a deck and set it on the Duel Disk.

At this moment, Tania held up a deck in each hand and said, "Here are two decks that will determine your fate: one is the deck of wisdom, and the other is the deck of courage. Choose one."

Judai, who suffers from decision-making difficulties, didn't want to choose at all and waved her hand, saying, "Choose whichever you're good at, I'm fine with either!"

"Then I'll use the Wisdom deck..."

4. As she spoke, she also set one of the decks to the Duel Disk.

"Oh right, I forgot to mention, this duel is not a Dark Duel."

Er: "What? What happened?"

Tania, adopting a affected tone and wiggling her hips, replied, "I don't want to waste you~, I want you yourself~."
