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

"Duel!!" ×2

[Yujo Judai: LP4000]

Anasis: LP4000

As soon as the two began their duel, the images inside the sphere instantly shut off, and the environment suddenly went dark.

Jaden: "So the dark duel is about to begin, the atmosphere is really getting intense!"

Anasis looked puzzled: 'A Dark Duel?'

"Alright, what exactly are you going to bet on?"

"Didn't I tell you? It's the Three Phantom Demon Cards!"

"No, what about the rules of the Dark Duel? Do you lose and become a puppet or get sealed into a card or something?"

The navy man's tone suddenly softened: "There are no such rules for ocean duels."

"But it exists in the darkness!"

"But it's not in the ocean!"

Jaden felt like he was having a cross-server chat with the other person, so he asked with a strange expression, "Um, just to confirm, could you say it again, it's darkness, right?"

The man retorted loudly, "I already said it's the ocean—!"

Judai: I dried up my silence, and regretted my impulsiveness so much!

The air suddenly became quiet, and the atmosphere became quite awkward.

Chapter 82 Sea Dragon God - Neotelrus

Asuka, Manjoume, and Misawa burst into laughter as they watched Judai and Anasis awkwardly chatting on the screen.

"I was completely dumbfounded, like an idiot."

"How stupid of us to confuse the ocean with darkness!"

Misawa: "But how do you explain that the two of them were surrounded by darkness at the very beginning of the duel?"

Just after he asked that question, a crew member ran over from the side.

"The power outage at the dome has been fixed!"

"Thanks for your hard work!"

Hearing the crew's conversation, the three fainted again.

......

"Does that mean even if I win this duel, I won't get the Three Phantom Demon Cards?"

Anasis's eyes widened, and he realized the problem.

Judai scratched his cheek with his fingers, replying awkwardly, "That's how it is..."

"How could this happen!?"

"Now that the misunderstanding has been cleared up, it's alright if we don't continue the duel."

Anasis: "Who said we weren't going to continue?"

"what?!"

The naval officer continued, "You just said what we'd bet on in this duel, and I've decided to bet on you!"

Judai was completely confused upon hearing this. "Huh?"

"Why?"

The other party explained, "Because I've always dreamed of spending money to build a new dueling academy underwater, and for that I need a symbol of the academy."

"One is the Three Phantom Demon Cards, and the other is you, Jaden Yuki!"

"me?"

"That's right, because you won against your opponents in the competition against northern universities, I've taken a liking to your skills!" The naval officer changed the subject, "So, what's your price?"

Judai was stunned for a moment: "Huh? My price?"

"Yes, is it one million? Or ten million? Or perhaps one hundred million?"

To be honest, I was a little tempted when I heard '100 million'.

However, he couldn't just agree to it so easily.

So he replied, "You said this duel would be a wager on me, right?"

"Correct."

"Since you're so wealthy, your wager is to let me and my companions leave this place and give me this 100 million as living expenses, how about it?"

Upon hearing this, Asuka and the others fainted again.

"I never expected that Judai would have such a greedy side."

"He's really down-to-earth."

"Are you serious...?"

Seeing that Judai had agreed, Anasis readily agreed as well: "Alright, I'll grant your request."

As Judai said, he was extremely wealthy and powerful; 100 million was nothing to him.

"Great, this 100 million is mine!"

The tenth generation suddenly became motivated.

The duel begins again!

"My turn, draw a card!"

[Anassis' hand cards: 5→6]

Looking at the deck of cards in his hand, Anasis grinned: "Looks like you're going to lose to me, Jaden Yuki."

Judai raised an eyebrow slightly. "Oh? So confident?"

"Just you wait and see..."

With that, Anasis drew two cards from his hand and threw one of them into the graveyard.

"Activate the Spell Card [Cost Reduced] by discarding one card from your hand!"

[Anassis' hand cards: 6→4]

"By the effect of this card, the monsters in your hand are reduced by two levels this turn."

He then opened the arena area on his Duel Disk and casually set a card there.

"Then, I activate the field spell [Legendary City of Atlantis]!"

As the site magic was activated, the surrounding scenery rapidly transformed into the ruins of an ancient city sleeping on the seabed.

"Because of this card's effect, both players' hands and the WATER monsters on the field are reduced by one level."

"In this way, I won't need to use sacrifices to summon monsters that were originally level seven."

He then placed a card from his hand onto the Duel Disk: "I summon [Sea Dragon - Tidarus] in Attack Position!"

Om-! !

In a flash of light, seawater suddenly gushed forth, and a gigantic sea dragon roared into view.

【Sea Dragon - Teldras: Attack Power 2600】

[Anassis' hand cards: 4→2]

"Due to the effect of the Field Spell, the ATK of all Water-type monsters on the field increases by 200 points."

[Sea Dragon - Tidarus: Attack Power 2600 → 2800]

Seeing this, Jaden nodded. "Impressive. You summoned a high-level monster with 2800 attack power right off the bat. But can you be sure you can beat me with just this one monster?"

"Of course, that's not all!"

Anasis revealed another monster card: "This card requires one [Sea Dragon - Tidarus] on the field to be Special Summoned."

"Appear, [Sea Dragon God - Neotidalus]!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the seawater surged up again, obscuring the sea dragon's figure.

Hua Hua Hua——!

The next second, the sea dragon reappeared before them, now with a dragon head on its upper body, making it even more majestic.

【Neo-Tidalus, the Sea Dragon God: Attack Power 2900 → 3100】

[Anassis' hand cards: 2→1]

Jaden looked at the sea dragon god, cold sweat dripping down its face. He knew the effect of this card: "This is bad. Are they going to play this big right from the start?"

Just then, the navy uncle removed the field spell and threw it into the graveyard, shouting, "Activate the monster effect of [Neo-Tidalus]!"

"Send the card whose name is [Atlantis], which is considered [Sea] according to the rules, to the graveyard. Send all other cards in both players' hands and on the field to the graveyard."

【Neo-Tidalus, the Sea Dragon God: Attack Power 3100 → 2900】

Left with no other choice, Judai had to follow his opponent and put all his hand cards into the graveyard.

[Yuki Jaden's hand cards: 5 → 0]

[Anassis' hand cards: 1→0]

"That concludes my turn."

"Hahaha, now you're mine! Mine, mine!"

The navy man was gesturing wildly, as if victory was already in his grasp.

Daichi Misawa covered his forehead and sighed, "Has Judai gone too far?"

Asuka looked worried: "Jūdai's hand has been reduced to zero, and the opponent has a monster with 2900 attack power on the field. He's already in dire straits in just the first turn."

However, Wan Zhangmu Lightning said, "But it's really infuriating that guy can draw cards at will. Even if you don't have a single card in your hand, he can still draw a card in the next turn that can turn the tide of the battle in an instant."

Let's wait and see!

Judai had no choice but to take it seriously, thinking, "I'll give it my all for this 100 million yen living expenses!"

He gritted his teeth and then forcefully drew a card from the top of the deck.

"My turn, draw a card!"

[Yuki Jaden's hand cards: 0 → 1]

Chapter 83 The Hero Arrives

"I believe in my deck. Please help me, I need it to support myself!"

The tenth generation prayed softly.

Then he looked at the card in his hand.

At the same time, everyone was also nervous about the cards that would appear next.

"The card I drew is..."

With that, Judai tossed out a card.

"Spell Card [Hero's Arrival] activated!"

If you control no face-up monsters, you can activate this effect by paying half of your Life Points. Special Summon 1 Level 4 or lower Elemental HERO monster from your Deck.

[Yujo Jaden: LP4000→2000]

[Yuki Jaden's hand cards: 1 → 0]

"They actually paid out 2000 health points in one go?!"
