"I'm really sorry that I couldn't let Fubuki use her full strength..."
How flamboyant she was in the duel just now, but now that she was defeated, Riki was in such a depressed state. She had a sense of déjà vu as a "screaming female brat was violently turned into a cream puff and only showed her ahem face".
From Rikki Mackenzie's point of view, she had tried her best to duel, but she couldn't even last a round in front of Fubuki. Even though she was much stronger than two years ago, she was still too weak.
No, no power.
What can I do with myself like this? Let alone prove my strength and growth in front of Fubuki, I can't even compare to him.
I can't do anything myself...
Such a self must be very disappointing to Fubuki. After all, this is the Duel Academy Exchange Tournament, which gathers the strongest students from Duel Academies from all over the world. It can be called the most valuable event among this age group, but he doesn't have it at all.
Let Fubuki enjoy herself...
"What an exciting duel, Mizuki-chan~"
"?"
Riki raised her head in confusion and looked at Fubuki, who was not in a hurry to leave after winning the duel, or to show off himself to the surrounding audience to attract fans. He was standing in front of her at the moment.
She was wondering if she heard something wrong. For example, what Fubuki actually said was "I have never felt happy dueling with you" and "I will probably never forget a weak duelist like you" or something like that?
"Although it has been two years, you have changed a lot, Mizuki-chan, but you haven't changed much at all." Facing Mizuki who couldn't get up on his knees, Fubuki showed his signature cowboy smile, "If you admire me, you can
It doesn’t matter if you say it directly, but your arrogance when you are arrogant actually scores very high on my side.”
"Who, who is the tsundere?!" Ricky Mackenzie panicked all of a sudden. Seeing Fubuki reaching out to her to take her hand, she hesitated for a while, then pushed Fubuki's hand away and said
, "Are you laughing at my weakness, laughing at me for not being as strong as you?"
"I know, for a powerful duelist like Fubuki, women are a big hindrance, right?" After a pause, without seeing Fubuki react, Mizuki herself revealed the truth in her heart.
With a frustrated expression, "I can't even be considered your opponent in a duel, right? What qualifications do I have to chase after your back, and what can I do?"
"I can't do anything..."
"For some duelists, 'I want to be the best duelist in the world, and women are in the way.'" Looking at the frustrated Mizuki, Fubuki did not deny her previous statement, but nodded.
He nodded and said, "That's true."
"But those are just ordinary people. I am 'Ten Join'-sama. I am different from ordinary people." Fubuki said with a smile after pronouncing his last name "Tenjoin" in strange English, "
Rather, compared to those who pursue powerful duelists, I am an outlier in pursuing a colorful but peaceful and stable life."
"Riki-chan, do you think that, like other duelists, I am also looking forward to a duel that is so intense that it makes my soul roar? That's why you have such a cold, irritable attitude during the duel, and you are also obsessed with defeating me.
?Mizuki-chan, who considers others so thoughtfully, is really cute.”
"I, I never considered your feelings!" After showing off her textbook arrogance, Riki said cautiously, "But, Fubuki, are you telling the truth?"
Fubuki nodded and said: "Because I think the most meaningful contribution in any relationship is to be willing, but loving yourself is the beginning of romance. This is my experience as a 'magician of love'. For those who are already soaked in the rain
Let me tell you, Rui Ji, there is no need to hold an umbrella for me, otherwise not only will I not be able to walk fast, but you will also get wet."
"It doesn't matter if you don't need to be obsessed with stronger power. If you have to be strong to form a bond with a strong person, doesn't it mean that all duelists can only go to the principal to fall in love?" It was a joke, but it didn't happen at all.
Fubuki, who realized that she had been stared at by Hayato who narrowed his eyes and didn't know what he was thinking, stretched out his hand to Riki again and said, "I wonder if Miss Riki Mackenzie is interested in going to the lake with me tonight?"
Eating egg tarts? I have a cat that can do backflips~"
"...You guy, you are still so unreasonable. Who would be fooled by that kind of excuse? The only person who would believe you is a lover who is willing to be deceived." After a moment of silence, Rui Ji held back a sentence, which sounded quite interesting.
There is some resentment in it.
Looking at Fubuki's hand stretched out in front of her, she subconsciously took it up and was helped up by Fubuki. With her cheeks flushed, she turned her head and looked elsewhere: "I'm not interested in cats that can do backflips - but,
I’m quite picky about the taste of egg tarts.”
"What's the matter? Are they going to perform a 'fusion' or something like that on the duel field?" Jonouchi raised his eyebrows and looked at Fubuki and Mizuki who had somehow joined hands on the field, and said,
"I came here to watch the duel. What are they doing?"
"Although I don't want to admit it, this may be the fate of [True Eyes] that makes him tightly bound by the blonde's gravity." Hayato sighed casually, "While his mind is full of duels, he only thinks about falling in love; while playing [True Eyes]
The one with red eyes is playing Birdman on the other side. If they match up, they all match up."
"Can this also be matched? Isn't it a bit too far-fetched?" Yugi complained, "Although I want to say this, but after thinking about Jonouchi and Mai-san's past... it was just a short distance away.
The dragon has come to stir up trouble."
"Yes, that David Rabb from before is a machine race player like Baron, and he also wants to get entangled with a certain [Red Eye] user." Hayato looked at Jonouchi in the back row dancing with peacocks.
With a sweaty look under his gaze, he continued to say, "What can I say?"
"This seems to be a coincidence. But does this mean that Jonouchi is actually the same playboy as that kid named Fubuki?" Not only Hayato, but also Yugi said in a wicked way, "Are you going to repeat it again?
This cycle of despair."
During the few words between Yugi and Hayato, Peacock Mai, who was successfully aroused to be jealous, suddenly became a little unhappy. She glared at the person beside her, clearly remembering that she had done nothing wrong, but she was a little inexplicably nervous.
Within the city.
"Hey! Don't weigh it, Wu!"
"Those two are such good mother-in-laws, but they are still my brothers. Now they are so bad." Asuka complained as she looked at Fubuki and Mizuki walking down the duel field together.
"To a certain extent, isn't this kind of talent more terrifying than the strength of dueling? Tensouin Fubuki, I have the urge to find him as a disciple." Wan Zhangmu said casually, "It's a pity that there is nothing that can do it.
The woman who caught my eye has appeared. And before I became the number one in the Duel Academy, I didn’t spend any time on such boring things as falling in love.”
"But Fubuki's duel was also great. The battle ended in two rounds just like me." Judai said with a smile, "It makes me look forward to it. Can I use it in the semi-finals?"
We faced Fubuki again with a different [Smurf] deck."
"By the way, Asuka, you haven't played yet, right?"
"Well, it's either this one or the next one." As one of the only four remaining contestants, Asuka was not nervous because it was going to be her turn soon. Instead, she looked at Judai's face with confidence.
Ahead, I met the eyes of Wan Zhangmu who turned back.
"Hoo? Don't you feel nervous? You know that there is at least a one-third chance that your next duel will be with me, Mr. Banzhangmu, but you don't feel scared?" Banzhangmu provoked Asuka, "You even dare to
Look at me with that provocative look?"
"Don't forget, you never defeated me when I was in the junior high school, Tenjoin Asuka."
"The past was before, and the present is now. Is it possible that you haven't made any progress during this period of time in Duel Academy?" The competitive Asuka heard Wan Zhangmu's words and responded tit-for-tat, "Be careful of being defeated by me on the field.
Cry loudly."
"You really dare to say that, Tianshangyuan, I should be the one to say that." Wan Zhangmu frowned, "I quite want to face you in the first round, otherwise, if I get to the second
It would be bad for students from other colleges to find out during the round that one of the top four contestants actually made the cut by fishing in troubled waters and having such weak strength."
"Do you think you are the only one who has become stronger? During this year in Duel Academy, my strength has grown to at least 1000% of what I was a year ago!"
"Oh, your deck has become stronger, and the swords of our monsters are not at a disadvantage!"
Looking at Asuka and Manjome who were about to start a fight before the names for the next duel were announced, Maeda and Marufuji Sho quietly moved their seats, a little away from the center of the storm, and whispered.
He said: "Why is it that the Tenshangyuan Alumni Association and Wan Zhangmu don't deal with him so much? He obviously has a good temper at ordinary times."
"Tenjoin is known as the 'Ice Queen' in the blue dormitory, and Banjomu is also a very proud person. Their tempers are not good, they just become better in front of us." Maeda also followed.
Sho Marufuji whispered, "To be precise, it was in front of Judai who was recognized by them and regarded as an important existence."
"Just like now, although it seems that they are fighting over the victory or defeat in the past and the outcome of the next duel, in fact, what they are really arguing about is the outcome in the 'future', that is, who can become
The winner will be the one who stands on the opposite side of Judai and fights against him."
"Why does it sound like you are jealous?"
"Love is a war, and a duel is a war, so the disputes in a duel should be similar to the jealousy in love? That's probably it."
Just as the two lowered their heads to communicate, Misawa, who was sitting in his seat, frowned and looked at the people in front of him: "What's going on? This uncomfortable feeling that I am the only one being excluded."
It’s okay that Banjomu and Asuka, who were provoking each other and making cruel remarks before the duel, didn’t come to him. He didn’t understand what was going on. In short, Judai was just watching the show. How could he even whisper and gossip?
Maeda and Sho Marufuji both formed a small group, but he was the only one who was forgotten?
Others always call him by the wrong name. After calling him by the wrong name, not only Misawa is embarrassed, but others are also embarrassed, so that gradually other people "isolate" Misawa - not in the bullying kind, but in the presence of others.
During some group activities, in order to avoid embarrassment, other people just pretended to have forgotten Misawa and did not try to call him by his name - after all, if you don't call his name, there is no possibility of calling him wrong.
In the yellow dormitory, I was isolated, but when I got to the audience in the red dormitory, I was still isolated. Didn't I come here in vain?
Frowning, Misawa wanted to refresh his presence, stood up from his seat and tried to talk to Judai: "Judai, I am also very confident in my deck——"
"The players in the third game have been divided into groups and completed Na Nuo Nie!"
The sudden voice of Professor Kronos startled many people, and also interrupted Misawa's unfinished words. The audience turned their attention to the position of Professor Kronos, and even Wanzhang glanced at him.
And Asuka is no exception.
"Although I had expected this situation when I knew that there were only two exchange students from other branches in the top eight, but it is really confusing to watch the students fighting among themselves."
He whispered to himself quietly, but because of the microphone at hand, Professor Chronos's voice was clearly heard by the audience, "Ahem, the contestants in the third game are third-year students from the Duel Academy headquarters.
Student, Ryo Marufuji from the Obelisk Blue dormitory.”
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "And the first-year students who are also from this department——"
Hearing that Caesar would appear in the next scene, Wan Zhangmu, Asuka and Misawa all fell silent, waiting for Professor Chronos to announce their names.
Although various circumstances indicate that Tenjoin Fubuki is as strong as Marufuji, but due to the different personalities and daily performances of the two, it will never be too big for them to duel with Tenjoin Fubuki.
There is pressure, but when it comes to a duel with Ryo Marufuji, even the arrogant Manzōme must take the challenge seriously.
And the names reported next will not only determine who will duel with Caesar, but also reveal the grouping of the final fourth game in advance, so that the remaining two people who are not participating immediately can start thinking in advance how to deal with their opponents next.
Under the gaze of the audience, Professor Kuronos announced his name with some regret:
"—Also a classmate from the Obelisk-Blue dormitory."
Seeing other people's eyes converging towards him, they paid attention to him who was about to join the battle, and Wan Zhangmu walked towards the duel without saying a word.
'I beat Caesar...eh! Is it true or not?'
That was by no means an unexpected line. He was more surprised in his heart that he had faced off against Caesar so early. In his expectation, it would be better for him to duel with Caesar when he reaches the semi-finals, because in that case, in the end
The finals can be left to myself and Judai Yujo.
However, although the plan could not keep up with the change, Wan Zhangmu did not care. On the contrary, he became excited because he met Caesar who he had long wanted to defeat.
Standing on the duel field earlier than Caesar, Wan Zhang ignored the referee Professor Cronos on the side, posed as if no one else was around, stretched out his finger and pointed to the sky: "One!"
"ten!"
"Hundred!"
"thousand!"
Just as Wanzhangmu was "reporting the numbers," Judai and the others noticed that the group of blue dormitory students who usually liked to crowd around Wanzhangmu and flatter him and took the initiative to act as their younger brothers had gotten a banner somewhere, along with Wanzhangmu.
The purpose expanded as he counted, and was fully revealed when he shouted "thousand".
A dozen people from ten generations subconsciously read out the words on the banner, which sounded at the same time as the shouts of other students——
