Chapter 44: Following the President to Check the Water Meter
You Xuan watched the duel silently, holding his chin and thinking.
This is the duel of Seto Kaiba eight years after the DM. It basically represents the ceiling level among the known duelists in the card world today.
In the GX anime, the president never directly fought, and the only close fight was the duel between Judai and "the righteous partner Kaibaman". But that one looked more like a card sprite printed out by Kaiba based on his own model, and Judai lost that fight, so it's hard to say how serious the opponent was.
Judging from the duel in front of him, it is no wonder that everyone in the dueling world now says that Kaiba is the best duelist today. Even if we put aside his unique skill of "floor card drawing", the strength of his current Blue-Eyes deck is indeed ahead of its time and different from others.
Even the friends of the GX protagonists have just come out of the "you hit me" environment in the early stage of the plot, and they are still at the stage of "they can actually summon a 2,000 attack monster in the first round". In the early stage, even the tenth generation of duels often pass the game without summoning a mortal bone cover card. And the students in the duel academy are already first-class duelists in the overall environment.
In comparison, the president's attack was really a dimensionality reduction attack.
It's true that having money and technology is good. He does his own research and prints his own cards. His deck is naturally at the forefront of the times. Or it should be said that if even a hacker like Kaiba, who has almost infinite resources, still has a deck that is on the same level as others in the environment after so many years, it would be too unreasonable.
"I won. You really are worthy of being my brother. But it's not a big surprise." Keipi wiped his nose with a smile and walked up to Kaiba.
The president, having satisfied his card addiction, then turned to look at You Xuan.
"Fujiki Yugen, right?"
He narrowed his eyes.
"I have something to say, but wait until I take care of the rat problem first."
You Xuan raised his eyebrows.
Do you have something to tell me?
Hiss~ Are you going to play cards?
Considering that it was the president of Kaiba, it might be possible. Maybe he was upset after seeing himself beat up his AI in the Kaiba Paradise, or maybe he was just addicted to playing cards.
You Xuan thought about it, thinking that if this really happened, he could just make the appointment, since it wasn't a life-or-death bet. If he couldn't win, there would be no loss. He could even consider charging a playing fee, one rare card per game. If he won by chance, he might be able to get the rare card for free.
At this time, the entourage of Kaiba also got off the helicopter. Someone picked up Fujimoto, who was knocked unconscious by the breath of the Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon.
Fujimoto opened his eyes with difficulty, adjusted to the glaring sunlight, and then blinked blankly.
"Huh? I'm still alive."
"It's useless for me to take the life of a rat like you." Kaiba crossed his arms and said coldly, "Compared to your worthless life, you have something I want."
Apparently his new Duel Disk not only gave the Duel Monsters a three-dimensional image of actual quality, but also adjusted the energy output. He limited the output to a non-lethal level and spared Fujimoto's life.
"I know you have a base. Tell me the location." Kaiba said coldly.
Fujimoto had recovered his breath by this time. He gritted his teeth and groaned twice: "Oh, so this is your purpose. You want me to betray the organization? Bah!
Everyone in the organization is my brother, my family, and we are all like brothers."
Then he caught a glimpse of Kaiba's sneer from the corner of his eye, which seemed a bit weird to him.
In a trance, he seemed to see an illusory giant shadow emerging behind the seahorse, transforming into the image of a flying white dragon. Some kind of terrifying pressure made it almost impossible for him to breathe.
The scene of the duel just now, where he was knocked unconscious by the 13,500 HP, appeared in front of him again. He was still in burning pain all over his body.
Fujimoto shrank his head and didn't dare to look him in the eye: ".Actually, we're not that familiar with each other."
He suddenly thought about it carefully and felt that his best buddy in the organization was actually only Onizuka. Now Onizuka was gone, and his relationship with the rest was really average.
Thinking of this, Fujimoto suddenly felt a little more at ease.
I am the meat of others. I don't blame him for selling out his teammates. It's really that Kaiba Seto is cheating and he is forced to do so. I believe his teammates will understand.
"I can tell you the address," he said.
"No need." Kaiba waved his hand, "Lead the way."
Fujimoto:"!"
Judging from the situation, does he want to take him there personally?
Fujimoto immediately began to sweat again. Revealing information was one thing, but personally leading the way was another.
"What?" Kaiba narrowed his eyes, "Any opinions?" "No, nothing."
Fujimoto stood up with difficulty.
At this moment, he felt that his battle-hardened legs were shaking uncontrollably.
"I'll go too!"
Guiping followed his brother, uttered "ah", thought of something, and turned to Yuxuan.
"I'm sorry, it looks like we'll have to wait a little longer before we can take you to the company. Why don't you wait a little longer, or I can arrange for a driver to take you to the branch first."
"It's okay, I'm not in a hurry." You Xuan waved his hand.
He naturally couldn't miss this rare opportunity to watch from the front row. Especially when he just realized that Fujimoto seemed to have approached Ryuzaki because of some unknown misunderstanding, and his actual target seemed to be him.
Speaking of which, Ryuzaki ran really fast. He disappeared in the blink of an eye while the president was playing cards.
Although this organization didn't seem to realize who actually killed their brothers, it was still a potential threat. Kaiba was planning to raid their house, so if he could kill this gang, it would undoubtedly remove a hidden danger for him.
So Youxuan and Keipi continued to follow Kaiba, chatting and laughing, to the organization's base to check the water meter.
After more than ten minutes' journey.
It’s still that hidden alley, it’s still that mysterious bar.
Fujimoto appeared in the bar again with a pale face. He sat down at the bar with a dull expression like a dead person.
The best friend with the middle-parted hair sat next to him and looked at his face: "What's wrong? You look like someone in the family has died."
Fujimoto turned his head expressionlessly and looked at his so-called family members who were like brothers to him.
"Not yet, but it should be soon."
Middle-parted hair: “?”
"Didn't you go to Long Qi to seek revenge? What happened?"
Fujimoto still shook his head with a dull expression.
"I bumped into Kaiba Seto."
The brothers nearby were all shocked when they heard this and came over.
"I'm so awesome, did you guys duel?"
"Is it really as great as it's said?"
Fujimoto shook his head again.
"You should know soon enough."
He said woodenly.
"He's waiting outside for you to come out."
Everyone: "?"
The next moment, there was a bang and the door was violently kicked open from the outside.
Under everyone's shocked gaze, Kaiba strode to the center of the bar and the duel disk unfolded.
"Come on, rats. Duel!"
