Chapter 33 As long as you are fully prepared, the god of death will not come
The original intention of the establishment of the Doma organization was to help Dazi gather enough power to revive the "Oliha Gang God" who was injured and fell asleep thousands of years ago, so as to start cleaning the earth again.
As for "Oliha Gang God", the power he needs is not heat energy, electricity or other ordinary energy sources, but the darkness in people's hearts, after all, he was born from it.
But even if the world is still full of wars, the darkness of the soul collected can only be a drop in the bucket for the need to awaken the "Oliha Gang God". However, if it is supplemented by the strong souls of the duelists,
, that’s a different matter.
It has nothing to do with the personal character of the duelists. The more powerful the duelists are because of their strong will, the more they can actually unearth considerable dark power. As long as they can be captured with [Oliha Gang's Barrier]
With the souls of the duelists, Dazi can use these sealed souls as sacrifices to speed up the recovery of "Oliha Gang God".
Although Hayato has won the Duel King, and Yugi, Kaiba, and Jonouchi are all from Toshinoichi, and they have completely conquered the top four in Duel City, but in terms of where to get the most high-quality duelist souls, it has to be
"The Father of Duel Monsters" Becca was the first to promote Duel Monsters, the United States has the most mature professional duelist system, and therefore the largest number of outstanding duelists.
Hayato knew that the destination of this trip was the United States, but he was a little surprised that the first target he found was his "acquaintance".
"Although the organization is ready to make enemies all over the world, we still need to keep a low profile without affecting efficiency. Compared with the star duels that attract attention in today's professional duelist circle
Or, the duelists who engage in illegal duels in the underground dueling arena are more suitable as our targets."
Rafiru explained to Hayato, "In terms of strength, some of them are actually not inferior to professional duelists, and even if they disappear, they won't attract much attention. The only trouble is
Most of the duelists in underground duels do not disclose their identities to avoid legal liability, so it is slightly difficult to find targets."
"However, because the real owner behind the 'black boxing' project in the underground duel arena is actually our Doma, so even this only trouble does not exist. Former United States Champion 'The Thief' Keith is our target." "It's very possible that Keith, the 'thief' who once stood at a very high level, can be persuaded by us to join Doma, but if he refuses, we will seal his soul." Rafiru paused at this point.
After a while, he looked at Hayato, "Also, do I need to give you a chance to do something?"
When Hayato heard this, the expression on his face remained unchanged, and he said coldly: "Keith? Hum, it's a perfect opponent to test my new power. Then leave it to me to try it out."<
/p>
As he said that, Hayato walked into the alley and walked towards where Keith was sitting without waiting for the three Rafilu who were accompanying him to say anything.
Behind Hayato, Amaluda looked at his back and frowned, opening his mouth to say something, but he saw Rafilu raising his hand in front of him, stopping himself from calling Hayato. p>
Shaking his head, Rafiru watched Hayato approach Keith, his eyes flashing and he didn't know what he was thinking.
Although Rafilu said that he wanted to invite Keith to join Doma first, as he walked towards Keith, Hayato had already inserted the card into the card slot and unfolded the duel disk with a "click".
This sound also attracted the attention of Keith, who was in a bad mood. He turned his head and looked at the figure who appeared in the alley. Although he was not drunk, the alcohol still had a certain influence on Keith, making him for the first time.
He couldn't recognize the identity of the person at first glance. After taking a few glances, Keith's eyes suddenly widened.
"Are you, Hayato Kobayashi?!"
"Hey, Keith, I really didn't expect to see you in such a place. I remember the last time we met was the last time." Hayato opened his mouth and started talking nonsense, with a sinister smile on his face illuminated by the dim street lights. "
Why do you look so decadent?"
"Hey, this isn't all thanks to you!" Keith stood up from the ground and looked at Hayato with an ugly face, "Because of the harm you did to me before Duel City, I ended up lying in the hospital for a long time.
In half a year, I completely missed the opportunity I originally wanted to use to make my name again in Duel City!"
"Being the duel king is quite impressive, Hayato Kobayashi! But what are you doing in front of me now?"
Keith was not a slow guy. Seeing Hayato approaching him step by step, the hairs all over his body stood up. He felt as if he was being targeted by some ferocious beast, and he had a sense of fatal crisis.
The only possible source of this feeling is Hayato Kobayashi, who is in front of something very wrong.
Before the duel city opened, on the day when Isis gave Kaiba the card of [Obelisk's Titan Soldier] that she brought to Doshino City from Egypt, Keith was kicked out by Bekas at that time.
After the Duel Kingdom Island, it accidentally fell into the hands of Malik, who was still the leader of Gurus. He was used as a sacrificial pawn and cannon fodder, and controlled by the [Millennium Scepter] to attack the Egyptian Antiquities Touring Exhibition Hall.
At that time, although Keith was completely reduced to a puppet controlled by Malik at will, he was not unconscious. He was very aware of his experience at the time and was being controlled in an unusually sober state. At that time, Hayato was
Keith's opponent is also the second duel between Hayato and Keith after the Duel Kingdom.
But that time, Keith had already been defeated by Hayato, and what was even more humiliating was that Hayato was using a set of infinite loops with [Iron Knight-Kia Fried] as the core, which was eroded by the infinite damage.
Although Keith, who had a basic score, successfully got rid of Malik's influence, he was sent to the hospital and lay there for more than half a year, completely missing the duel city that followed.
Although duel monsters are becoming more and more popular nowadays, large and small events are being held all over the world, but the most valuable event so far is still the original Duel City, and the Keith people who missed that event are lying in the hospital, only
Being able to watch one duelist after another come from behind to surpass him.
Of course, Keith naturally hated Hayato.
"Don't be so wary, Keith, come and have a duel with me." Hayato walked to a certain distance from Keith and stood still. After leaving enough space, he threw something he was carrying towards Keith.
He walked over and was caught by Keith.
Keith looked down and saw that it was a duel plate sold by the Kaiba Group. It looked ordinary.
"Duel?" Keith held the duel plate in one hand and the card deck he had taken out before but not taken back in the other. The corners of his mouth curled up, whether it was contempt or self-deprecation, "How did you think of coming to duel with me?
Hayato Kobayashi?"
"A duel is a duel, do you need any more reason?" Hayato said, raising the unfolded duel disk on his left hand. Only then did Keith realize that the duel disk used by Hayato was not the one he threw to him, but the duel disk he had thrown to him.
It is a dark green disc, and the unfolded duel disc is in the shape of a blade, which looks more handsome. "However, in order to match the atmosphere here, what follows is not an ordinary duel,"
"It's a dark duel that puts your soul on the line."
As soon as Hayato finished speaking, without waiting for Keith on the opposite side to react, the "Oliha Gang Fragment" on his exposed right wrist burst out with green light, filling the alley with green light. Keith was horrified.
Under their gaze, everything around them was replaced by a turbid darkness!
Keith took a step back to distance himself from Hayato, but found that the escape route behind him that should have been air was an air-like wall, and he couldn't leave.
"Dark games or something like that, another way to control the mind!"
Unlike Kaiba, who is stubborn and stubborn to the point of insisting on his own way of doing things, he has a superstitious attitude towards science. Although Keith uses a mechanical deck, he is quick to accept dark games. Perhaps he was also attracted by two players, Bekas and Malik.
[Millennium Artifact] The relationship between the holder and the mind that has been controlled by it is in it.
Becas humiliated him by reading his mind and almost killed him by controlling his mind. Malik also used a dark game to seize control of his body. He was unwilling to be reduced to this point.
Never want to be manipulated again!
Keith gritted his teeth, and the anger in his heart was about to overflow. He glared at Hayato fiercely, "There is a limit to how I can look down on people, you bastard!"
"Don't think that I'm still the same person I was in Duel Kingdom, Hayato Kobayashi! Anyway, as long as I defeat you, it won't matter!"
Keith said, putting on the duel disk and inserting the card deck into the duel disk, "It just so happens that I have wanted to take revenge on you for a long time, Duel King!"
"Duel!"
【Keith:4000LP】
When Hayato saw Keith taking over the duel, he nodded with satisfaction: "Hmm, this is the kind of momentum you want, Keith. This makes him look like the 'thief' guy in my impression who obviously has no ability but looks like a 250-year-old."
Si ah."
"Use your full strength to fight me, but remember to be cautious, otherwise, the flames of my demon deck will engulf you in an instant."
"Duel."
【Hayato:4000LP】
Seeing Hayato draw five cards, out of pressure, Keith grabbed the initiative and drew a card without any sense of martial ethics: "Don't be arrogant, Hayato Kobayashi, I will take the initiative, draw the card!" Looking at the card he drew, Keith said: "First, I activate the continuous magic card [Second Chance]. This card can cause the effect of my coin toss to start from scratch once per turn."
"Then I summoned [BM-4 Bomb Spider] in face-up defense position, and finally covered all four cards in my hand!"
On the Keith field, a spider-shaped chariot appeared with its metal limbs folded in a defensive state. Although it was a level 4 monster, it had an excellent defensive power of 2200 points, and there were many rocket nests on its back.
It can be seen that what needs to be guarded against is its attack performance.
【BM-4 Bomb Spider】【4☆/Dark】
【Mechanical family/effect】
【】
But what deserves more attention is the row of four cover cards in Keith's backcourt. The only exposed card back is so plain and unpretentious, but it is difficult to ignore.
What a standard "T" word expansion!
Hayato twitched the corner of his mouth and said helplessly to Keith: "When you said 'not the same person you were in the Duel Kingdom', is this what you are referring to?"
"Hmph, how about it, Hayato Kobayashi, you always like to lay a lot of pits for others to step on, and now you see a row of cover cards on the opposite field, how do you feel?" Keith said proudly, "You gave it to me back then.
I can’t wait to return those bad memories to you.”
"My turn is over."
After laying such a simple but impressive venue, Keith declared that his turn was over.
[Keith: 4000LP, 0 cards in hand]
【BM-4 Bomb Spider】【DEF2200】
【Second Chance】【Add Card】X4
I have to say that Keith's move did make Hayato a little panicked, but it wasn't completely panicked. Keith's backcourt was full of cards, why don't I quickly draw a [Feather Sweeper] to kill him?<
/p>
Hayato put his finger on the duel plate and drew a card: "My turn, draw a card."
After pulling out the card, before Hayato could confirm it, he heard Keith on the opposite side say: "At this moment, I am going to activate a set card in the preparation phase of your turn, and then activate another set card in the chain!" As he spoke, Keith pressed the card-blocking button on the duel plate one after another. The two cards in his back field were opened one after another, revealing a red border. One of the cards showed a man holding a scythe.
The God of Death, and Keith's ace monster [Revolver Dragon] is clearly printed on the other one.
"The Continuous Trap Card [Death's Parade], during the preparation phase of the opponent's turn, you can throw a coin to apply its effect." Keith said, raised his hand and snapped his fingers.
An illusory coin appeared. On the obverse side was the image of [Blue Eyes White Dragon] full of Kaiba's private goods, while on the other side was a skull on the reverse side.
The coin was automatically thrown up without being touched, spinning in the air, tumbling and landing on the ground, revealing the pattern of [Blue Eyes White Dragon].
"Haha, the result is positive. In that case, due to the effect of [Reaper's Parade], you will not be able to Summon or Flip Summon monsters until the end of this turn. Without the monsters, even you will not be able to escape defeat, Xiaolin.
Hayato."
As Keith spoke, he glanced proudly at the card next to [Death's Parade], "My second card is also a permanent trap card, [Guns Bombardment]. It has the effect of tossing a coin once per round.
When activated, the effect can be applied based on the number of times the face appears."
"Because [Death's Parade] rolled once, it will give you 500 points of effect damage!"
"See my revenge, Hayato Kobayashi!"
Keith's finger made a pistol movement, and in sync with his movement, the barrel of a loaded [Revolver Dragon] protruded from the [Guns fired] he opened in the back.
There was a "bang" sound, and a beam of impact was sent out, passing through Hayato's body.
【Hayato:LP】
The gunshot directly hit Hayato. Keith thought about the painful expression on Hayato's face, but what he didn't expect was that Hayato just lightly dusted the dust on the hit spot and said lightly.
: "Is the revenge you're talking about this kind of attack that's not even touching?"
"What a shame for my $20,000 coat."
After provoking Keith with words, Hayato had time to check what cards he had drawn, but perhaps because it was his first time to use this deck, his starting bonds this time were a bit insufficient.
In other words, he seems to be stuck. He didn't even draw a single monster card, only red, green, and green cards.
Well, where is the perfect ☆hand☆ card~
It can be said that Keith's [Reaper's Parade] restricted Loneliness, because Hayato had no monster card in his hand at all, and he couldn't summon it even if he wanted to, but on the other hand, Hayato couldn't draw it either.
Now is almost the best time to use [Harpy’s Feather Sweep].
However, it’s understandable that he couldn’t draw it, because the deck Hayato used this time was not the regular 40 cards but the ultimate 60 cards, and there was only one [Harpy’s Feather Sweep] in his deck.
That’s all, I won it from Peacock Dance during the Duel Kingdom.
Sometimes you can’t even draw one out of 40 cards, let alone one out of 60 cards.
Seeing Hayato confirming the cards in his hand, Keith calmed down a little, raised the corner of his mouth, and pressed the button to add cards again: "Kobayashi Hayato, the number of cards in your hand is 6 right now, right?
If you have more than 6 cards in your hand and I have less than 2 cards in my hand, I will activate this cover card."
Keith revealed the third cover card in his backfield, which was another trap card. In the picture of the card, a palm was about to throw a coin.
"Trap card, [Gamble], after activating, toss a coin, and I will predict the result." Keith, who was empty-handed, crossed his arms in front of his chest and said confidently, "If I guess right, I can predict the result in one breath.
I will draw cards from the deck until I have 5 cards in my hand, and if I guess wrong, my next turn will be skipped."
"Hoho, powerful cards are often accompanied by huge risks. As always, I like to use this kind of gambling cards to gain high profits, Keith."
"Hmph, as long as we can get good results, there will be no side effects." Keith snorted coldly, stretched out his hand and declared, "The result I predict is of course positive!"
As Keith made his judgment, the coin flew into the air. Perhaps it was the previous [Death Parade] that used up part of Keith's luck. Now this more critical toss of the coin, the coin rolled and fell to the ground.
The skull is facing upward.
The result was the back, and Keith's guess was wrong.
"Hey, it doesn't matter. As long as you are fully prepared, death will not come. The [Second Chance] I activated before is not only beautiful."
Keith anticipated the current situation and decisively activated the effect of [Second Chance]: "Because of the continuous magic card [Second Chance] on my field, I can re-flip the coin once this round.
”
"The future changes here! The result is——"
The coin that had fallen to the ground returned to the state of rolling in the air as if going back in time, and then fell to the ground again, but this time the result changed. What appeared above was the pattern of [Blue Eyes White Dragon].
"——It's the front!" Keith said proudly, putting his hand on the duel plate, "Then, with my bare hands, I can draw five cards in one breath, Draw!"
[Gamble] If this card guesses wrong, it will directly skip the user's next entire turn. The risk is extremely high, but it is also accompanied by extremely high returns. Keith, who had an empty hand in the previous round, is now playing again.
A full five cards have been replenished, and resources have become abundant again.
On Hayato's side, because there is no monster in his hand of cards, he can't do anything...
...?
"Yeah, yeah, yeah, I have to say that you have definitely improved compared to before, Keith." Looking at Keith's operation, Hayato nodded approvingly, "Let me give you a little thumbs up."
"I activate the permanent magic card [Nightmare Mirage]. This card allows me to draw cards during your preparation phase until the number of cards in my hand reaches four, and then discards the number of cards drawn from my hand during my preparation phase.
card. Then, I cover three cards and the round ends."
[Hayato: 3500LP, 2 cards in hand]
[Nightmare Mirage Tower] [Gai Ka] X3
In Keith's view, because of the effect of his own [Death God's Parade], the suspected monster card in Hayato's hand was successfully blocked and unable to be summoned, and he could only deploy defense by covering the card. Other than that, there was nothing else
If you can't do it, simply end the round.
"Ha, [Nightmare Mirage Tower], in that case one of your three cards must be [Very Food], right? That kind of old-fashioned boss has long been out of date, Hayato Kobayashi!"
Keith's finger pressed the button to activate the block card, and opened the last block card on his back field, "In your end phase, I want to activate this card, the trap card [Sand Tornado]
!"
"Activate the [Nightmare Mirage Tower] on your field as a target, destroy that card, and then I can cover up another magic/trap card from my hand!"
Hayato didn't draw a card that destroyed the backcourt, but Keith did cover one. The tornadoes of the sky moved towards the [Nightmare Mirage Tower] in Hayato's backcourt, but it failed to have any effect. This card
The card was destroyed by the storm and sent to the graveyard. At the same time, Keith also put a card he had drawn previously into the backfield.
Keith and Hayato were dueling, but Baron, who was hiding and watching the two of them, frowned strangely: "That 'thief' Keith, I don't remember it being mentioned in the intelligence, because he was frustrated many times.
Is he basically just a guy hanging out in underground duels?"
"Now it seems that I am surprisingly strong. I was able to suppress Hayato Kobayashi for a while."
Amaluda looked at Keith and said faintly: "This is the power of 'hate', Baron. When people vent their resentment, they can perform beyond their level and achieve what they originally couldn't do."
It’s not surprising.”
"The power of a duelist's heart can create miracles, but for that 'thief' Keith, that's all." Rafilu reached into his arms and touched the card deck placed next to him.
"The cards told me that the flow of the field has changed. That guy Kobayashi Hayato seems..."
"My turn!" Keith didn't know what Rafilu and the others who didn't show up were saying about the situation on the field. He looked at the cards he drew and showed a proud smile, "Humph, I drew a good one.
