Walking off the duel stage, Samejima exhaled, adjusting his mentality and relaxing from the fierce duel. What was displayed on the big screen were the heads of Samejima Iemitsu and Lemuria, only Lemuria's.
The avatar has dimmed, leaving only Samejima's avatar still lit.
The old deacon glanced at Lemuria who was leaving the duel with a strange smile. He didn't take it seriously, but began to announce: "The fourth game of the Duel Kingdom's quarter-finals selection has ended, and the winner is Samejima Iemitsu.
At this point, all the contestants who have qualified for the semi-finals have been decided!"
The image displayed on the screen changed, showing the heads of four people one by one, namely Jonouchi Katsuya, Muto Yugi, Kobayashi Hayabusa and Samejima Iemitsu, and there was a line between the two duelists side by side.
The avatars are connected together.
"What on earth did Hayato go to do? He hasn't come back since he went there." Seeing Hayato's avatar appear on the screen, Jonouchi looked around, but still didn't see Hayato.
From the moment Yugi came on stage to duel, Yugi defeated Maiko, Samejima Iemitsu came on stage to duel, until now Samejima defeated the guy named Lemuria, Hayato has never returned to the audience.
There was some worry on Tapirang's face: "Has something happened to Hayato-kun? It's too worrying that he hasn't come back."
"Don't worry, Tapira. That guy Hayato is really good at fighting, at least half as good as me." Jonouchi boasted, "However, it's really worrying that this hasn't happened all the time. Wait, it's time
It’s not like he ate the food prepared by Becas and was poisoned!”
"Although I know you don't like that guy Bekas, don't forget, we also ate the food, right?" Peacock Dance looked at Jonouchi speechlessly and complained, "If you are thinking about this, you might as well worry about it.
You yourself, you have to duel with the game tomorrow, in the idiot city."
"Although duels are important, I think friends are equally important." Yugi smiled and expressed his opinion, "Today's game is over. Even if we are preparing for tomorrow's duel, there is still a lot of time.
, I think it’s better to go find Hayato-kun.”
Hearing Yugi's words, Peacock Wu curled her lips imperceptibly and said nothing more. Although she is getting along well with Yugi and the others now, Peacock Wu knows very well in her heart that whether it is Jonouchi, Yugi or Hayato, she and them
The three views between them are not consistent.
Regarding the dueling monsters, Peacock Dance thinks it is a tool to help them improve their lives. They think it is a game that places their souls on the game. Peacock Dance pursues the material reality and the victory of the result, while they enjoy the process of dueling in the game and prefer games without substance.
"Friendship" and "family affection".
Even though she had dueled with Hayato, Jonouchi, and Yugi one after another, and had seen their decks respond to their hearts, the fog that enveloped Peacock Dance's heart still hadn't dissipated, and the dark cloud called "confusion" still shrouded her heart. "What is a duel monster?" and "For what purpose?" Hayato once asked her two questions that have not yet been answered. But...
Glancing at Jonouchi who was fighting with Honda and Tairyo, Maura Wu couldn't explain what he thought about Jonouchi. He was obviously just a half-assed duelist, and he was obviously a guy with nothing but good luck. Katsuya Jonouchi
,What exactly has been supporting him in the duel until now?
"Who is looking for me?"
A familiar voice came to the ears of Yugi and the others. They looked towards the direction from which the voice came, and saw Hayato holding the handrail of the stairs with one hand and returning to the auditorium with steady steps, with an embarrassed look on his face: "Oh,
I'm really sorry. The castle is so big that I couldn't find my way back. I almost got lost and couldn't come back."
"What, Hayato, you are too inferior. Not to mention the duel between Yugi and Miss Mai, even Mr. Samejima's duel is over."
"Sorry, sorry." Hayato walked towards a few people with an apologetic look, and glanced at the big screen not far away, "Oh, oh, oh, have you actually decided on the arrangements for tomorrow's duel opponent?" p>
"If Yugi and Jonouchi face off, then my opponent," Hayato turned his head and looked at Samejima Iemitsu, who had a serious look on his face, "is Mr. Samejima, right? What a pity, I originally wanted to take a look at you.
I tried to modify my deck for the duel, but I completely missed it."
"Well, in this regard, I do have a certain advantage." Samejima Iemitsu scratched the back of his head with an embarrassed look and acknowledged Hayato's statement, "But Hayato-kun, I have seen your duel twice, I agree.
You are a powerful duelist. So even if I am a little embarrassed, I will not let you down in tomorrow's duel."
Hayato responded with a smile: "Isn't that what it should be, Samejima School... Mr. Iemitsu."
"Only a duel in which one's own body and mind are fully devoted can be regarded as respect for other duelists."
Looking at Hayato, the others didn't notice anything was wrong at all, but Yugi frowned with concern.
‘Aibo, have you also noticed the aura on Hayato’s body?’
In Yugi's heart, "Another Yugi" said. Yugi nodded: 'Well, although Hayato-kun looked as if nothing had happened, the dark power in him was really obvious. He just walked away from me.
I noticed it when I passed by.'
'The other me, do you think Hayato-kun...'
"Another game" - Wang Xiang shook his head: "Hayato's willpower is one of the best among the people I have ever met. Even the [Millennium Artifact] that looks quite ominous should not be that easy."
Control him.'
‘Rather than being affected by the power of the [Millennium Artifact], I think Hayato must have just come into contact with something rich in dark power, right?’
Wang Xiang's intuition was indeed correct. The almost invisible dark aura on Hayato's body that ordinary people could not detect did indeed come from a prop rich in dark power. Not only that, this dark prop was still lying on the ground at this moment.
In the [Warehouse] of Hayato System.
It was a golden ring, roughly the size that could be put around a person's neck and used as a collar. There was also an "Eye of Ugato" engraved on the front of the ring, the same style as the [Millennium Artifact].
" pattern. If this collar were placed in Hayato's previous life, many people who have watched the "Yu-Gi-Oh GX" animation would probably recognize it at a glance:
Isn't this thing the dark prop worn by the vampire in Seven Stars?
