Following the plane crash that occurred on the way to Egypt, Hayato also came to the isolated island now known as "Duel Academy Island" for the first time. After almost half a year, this once uninhabited island came to an end.
Thanks to the joint efforts of Haima Entertainment Group, Shadow Pill Pharmaceutical Group, and Anasis Shipping Company, it has already been transformed into a different look.
Unfortunately, when the Kaiba Group was planning Duel Academy, although it prepared a helipad for helicopters to lift off, it did not support the landing of passenger planes, making it impossible for Hayato to take his "Gel Tank" to overlook Duel Academy Island from the air.
The overall appearance is that you can only land on the nearby land and take the ship prepared by Anasis Shipping Company to Duel Academy Island.
This was also part of the original cooperation, not only for Hayato and Chronos now, but also every time when the duel academy starts vacation, or when there are supplies that need to be sent to the duel academy island, or when others visit the duel academy,
The transportation will be carried out by ships provided by Anasis Shipping Company.
——At least this is the current situation. However, as the Duel Academy continues to be held for a long time and other duel academies are opened, the Duel Academy will inevitably purchase its own long-term ships in the future, and the cooperation with Anasis Shipping Company will also change from leasing to
Order a ship. However, that is also a matter for the future. At least for now, the ship Hayato and Chronos are traveling on is leased by Anasis Shipping Company.
The ship that Hayato and Chronos boarded first arrived at a man-made piece of land next to the Duel Academy Island. It was built as a place that integrated the functions of a helipad and a dock. It can be said to be the only place where the Duel Academy, which is closed overseas, is open to the outside world.
When Hayato stepped off the ship and onto the pier, he found that someone was already waiting here.
Wearing a straight black suit and holding a heavy briefcase in his hand, the man waiting for Hayato and Kuronos looked like an ordinary office worker, but his energetic appearance could not hide his lack of motivation.
His temperament and slightly sunken eye sockets reveal a sense of exhaustion, and the number of white hairs visible to the naked eye between the dark hair makes the man look much older.
"Good afternoon, Mr. Hayato Kobayashi, and Mr. Kuronos." When Hayato and Kuronos arrived, the ordinary office worker subconsciously took out a business card, realizing that he seemed to be no longer a business card holder.
After the company employee arrived, he coughed a little awkwardly to cover up his mistake, and introduced himself to the two of them, "My name is Kira Aoki. After receiving the notice of your visit, I came here specially to wait for you.
Two people who serve as guides on Duel Academy Island."
"Ah, I recognize you, you are the champion of the gen competition, right?" Chronos seemed to have paid attention to the gen competition in Tongshino City, and he recognized it at a glance, and the dress on the duel field was not too big.
Kira Aoki's transformation, "That powerful bird and beast deck is impressive."
"My name is Cronos de Medici, and I should be a teacher in this school for a long time to come. We will be colleagues from now on."
Moving his eyes downward, Kronos noticed that on the chest of Kira Aoki's suit, there was a nameplate with his name and position written on it, which read the message "Kira Aoki: Teacher (Sun God-Yellow)".
Hayato also noticed the words on Kira Aoki's nameplate, and said with some surprise: "Although he is the champion of the gen competition, he chose not the Obelisk-Blue where the top students belong, but the Sun God in the middle.
-Is it yellow?"
Hearing Hayato's words, Aoki nodded and said patiently: "For a long time, I have always wanted to maintain a peaceful life, not obsessed with winning or losing, not obsessed with troubles, and not making enemies that keep me awake at night. This is
My attitude towards society also knows that this is my happiness. However, even when it comes time to take things seriously, I will not lose to anyone."
"I prefer the second or even third position to the most eye-catching first place. To do this, I need to ensure that I have the ability to be the dormitory teacher of that dormitory first, so I have to get serious in the gen competition.
."
Kuronos couldn't understand Kira Aoki's attitude towards life, but he did not reject Aoki's three views because of this. He just said with some confusion: "Obelisk Blue is the dormitory where the top students live.
, and Sun God Huang is in the middle?"
"It's normal for you to find it strange, but who allowed this academy to be established by Seto Kaiba, who had held [Obelisk's Titan Weapon]?" Hayato spread his hands and said helplessly, "Don't say it was
The one who was supposed to be the strongest [La] was placed in the middle. If he thought about it, the three dormitories from lowest to highest would be called 'Jouchi', 'Third-rate Duelist' and 'Blue Eyes White Dragon', it doesn't matter."
"He didn't do that in the end, probably because he didn't want other students to call themselves 'Blue Eyes White Dragon' and give away this exclusive name to him."
However, as for Hayato's slander against his future boss, or perhaps it was the truth, neither Chronos nor Aoki agreed, because they had both heard that Seto Kaiba was a very mean-spirited person, and anyone who had offended him would
He will definitely look for opportunities to put small shoes on the opponent, and even if there is no chance, he will try every means to create an opportunity. This rumor was spread by a user on a duel monster enthusiasts forum whose ID is "True Red Eyes Must Second Blue Eyes". It makes sense.
Well-founded and highly credible.
They can accept leaving Duel Academy because of their lack of ability, but they don't want to be expelled for the reason of "walking into the classroom with the left foot first".
Looking at the watch on his wrist, Aoki chose to skip this dangerous topic: "It's almost time. Let me take you two to the academy together."
The overall area of Duel Academy Island is very large. Even though the entire island was not included in the renovation scope when Duel Academy was built, less than one-fifth of the area was opened up for the construction of the academy and ancillary buildings. However, even so, the area is still small.
Aoki was not too young, so Aoki couldn't let Hayato and Chronos walk slowly to school. Instead, he drove the two of them in a four-seater car, which was originally
It was Aoki who drove to the pier.
After starting from the pier, you first have to cross a bridge to reach the island, and then you need to cross a road in the forest specially built for vehicles to reach the Duel Academy. However, on the way, Hayato and Kuronos saw this
The road branched off and led directly to a two-story building located in a clearing on the edge of a cliff.
Noticing that the roof of the unusually familiar building was painted red, Hayato guessed: "Could that be Osiris-Red's dormitory?"
"Yes, Mr. Hayato, according to Mr. Kaiba Seto's design, the students of this Duel Academy are divided into three dormitories according to their abilities, and the Osiris-Red students are placed in that dormitory.
"Aoki introduced, "Although it looks very simple, the configuration in Osiris-Red Dormitory is actually above that of ordinary star-rated hotels. In addition to being a multi-person dormitory, it is even better than the environment at home of most ordinary people.
It's a lot better, but it's just a little shabby compared to the other two dormitories."
"Mr. Seto Kaiba believes that external conditions can motivate people to work hard and improve."
Hayato nodded: "That's true. Kaiba is qualified to say that. After all, his previous environment was better than that of a beggar. His current status is indeed earned through his own efforts."
When he thought about the dormitory he once lived in in high school, even the air conditioner was installed just before graduation, which perfectly complied with the law of "good things in school only appear after graduation", Hayato suddenly felt that Osiris -
Hong’s conditions aren’t that bad either.
After driving through the curve leading to the Osiris-Red Dormitory, there was another fork in the next curve. This was the path leading to a lake on the island of Duel Academy, but it was more attractive than visiting the scenery.
You can still see the front entrance of Duel Academy by looking along the straight road. After stopping the car at the entrance, Aoki led Hayato and Chronos through the long road of the main entrance of Duel Academy.
On both sides of the road, there are pieces of stone cones for decoration. The flat stone cones are decorated with reliefs of four kinds of duel monsters on the four sides. Each stone cone is different, from [Baby Dragon] to [Charging into the Battle].
Captain] to [Dark Knight-Gaia], [Dark Magician] and other powerful monsters.
"This is the Duel Academy. I really look forward to how many outstanding students will graduate from here in the future." Chronos looked at the tall Duel Academy headquarters building in front of him and said sincerely.
"Duel Academy is different from ordinary colleges and universities. It no longer compels students to study subjects such as foreign languages and mathematics. Although these courses are still available, they are elective courses that interested students can take and are not included in the assessment. Duel Academy's
The most important courses for students are dueling theory classes and dueling practice."
After entering the Duel Academy, Aoki led Hayabusa and Kuronos to the principal's office, saying that the principal would handle the appointment matters for Kuronos here. While passing several empty classrooms, he
He introduced the two of them, "In addition, the teachers of Duel Academy can also create interest courses for students to take as electives based on their personal preferences. These empty classrooms are interest class classrooms for teachers to freely decorate."

"For example, Osiris-Red's dormitory teacher, Teacher Hugo of Daitokuji, offers an 'alchemy' course. The reason is that the ancient 'alchemy' is very close to the 'fusion' in Duel Monsters. The students
You can learn by analogy and master the use of [Fusion] more skillfully."
Hayato was not surprised that "Alchemy" would pop up in the Duel Academy, a course that had nothing to do with Duel Monsters. In the original plot, Daitokuji Temple actually opened such a course, and the people who took it were pretty good.
Quite a few, the key is that his alchemy theory is really helpful in fusion summoning in duel monsters - although he himself does not use fusion summons at all.
At the same time, Hayato was a little curious: "Does it mean that the opening of interest courses also requires the consent of the principal? What about Mr. Aoki, do you offer any courses?"
"As we all know, drawing cards is a very important process in Duel Monsters, which can directly affect the progress of the duel, and the most basic thing for drawing cards is hands." Aoki said seriously, "So I am going to open a course about hands.
The course on personal care allows students to know how to protect their palms, relieve finger fatigue and maintain the suppleness of their skin."
"It fits my stereotype of your surname." Hayato complained, and then said, "It's a shame that Principal Samejima would agree to these weird applications."
"Samejima, principal? Are you talking about Mr. Samejima Iemitsu? He's not." Aoki felt a little confused when he heard Hayato's words, but he thought of a special instruction he received when he received the message from Seto Kaiba.
, suddenly understood something, and instead of continuing, he changed his words and said, "No, I remembered it wrong. Mr. Samejima is indeed the principal."
Although his reaction to Aoki was a bit strange, Hayato did not think about it carefully. Instead, he followed Aoki and Chronos to the top floor of Duel Academy. The principal's office is located on this floor. In the corridor leading to the principal's office, Hayato, he
I happened to meet an old acquaintance - Samejima Iemitsu, whom he just mentioned.
"Hey, Samejima Normal School, it's been a long time." Looking at Samejima wearing a peaked cap on his head, Hayato said hello, and then changed his words, "No, I should call you Principal Samejima now, right?" Hayato didn't think it was strange that Samejima Iemitsu was not in the principal's office but in the corridor. What if he was going to the toilet? There is no need to study this kind of issue in detail.
After seeing Hayato, Samejima also pulled the hat on his head and replied: "Long time no see, Hayato. I heard that you recommended me to Mr. Seto Kaiba as the principal? Hahaha, you really gave it to me.
I found an interesting job."
When he said this, Samejima turned sideways, and the nameplate on his chest only showed the word "Principal". Although the length of the nameplate felt a bit strange, Hayato didn't pay much attention to it.
As he spoke, Samejima had already opened the door to the principal's office and stood at the door to signal Hayato and the others to walk in. Aoki and Chronos glanced at Hayato, waiting for him to go ahead.
Hayato walked into the principal's office nonchalantly and said as he walked: "The principal of Duel Academy has a very heavy responsibility in this position."
"Indeed, this is a very important position, so it cannot be filled by someone who is not capable." As Hayato walked into the principal's office, Samejima and Aoki held back Chronos who was about to follow them.
, closed the door gently, and Hayato didn't notice what the people behind him were doing.
"Mr. Samejima, won't your conscience hurt if you lied to Mr. Hayato like this?" Lowering his voice, Aoki asked in a low voice, while Samejima waved his hand, "How did I lie? The vice principal is not the principal?"
Pulling open the collar that was blocking the nameplate, another word "vice" appeared before the word "principal" on Samejima's nameplate.
In the principal's office, before Hayato could turn around and look at the people behind him, a huge screen in the principal's room suddenly lit up, revealing the image of Kaiba sitting in his office.
A few minutes later, Hayato's angry voice came from the office: "Sett, you plotted against me!" End of chapter
