I'm playing cards in Yu-Gi-Oh!

"So you're not dead."

Youyu stood at the door, just a few steps away from Chairman Kagemaru, looking at the grotesquely young face.

"Obviously." Kagemaru smiled, "That monster from the ancient times is called 'Tragodia', right? It thinks it controls everything. It thinks it can control the business I founded and use my resources to realize it. It's ambitious.

But do you know what the truth is? He is an idiot. He has shocking power and the ability to shake the world, but he does not have the ability to use them effectively. "

After a pause, he added mockingly: "Like a kid wielding a submachine gun."

"Tragodia thought he took advantage of you, but the truth is actually the other way around, right?" You Yu said, "You lost to him in the duel, became his pawn, and was used as a puppet by him, but that one is not you at all. .

What you sacrificed to Tragodia was originally a body of your puppet that you had abandoned long ago due to aging and illness.

Tragodia thought he was controlling 'Chairman Kagemaru', but in fact it was just the empty shell left behind after your transformation. "

You Yu narrowed his eyes.

"'Human Refining', a taboo chapter in alchemy, artificially creates a body that can carry the weight of the soul and realizes the migration of the soul."

Kagemaru laughed dryly.

"It looks like you've already talked to Daitokuji."

He didn't deny it, he looked like the kind of villain who had succeeded in his plot and felt that he was secure and no longer needed to hide.

Now that he has passed the stage where he needs to hide behind the scenes and work hard, he can't wait to find someone to tell his evil plan and share his "genius" idea with others, just like showing off his prank.

"Yes, even I must admit that Dade Temple played a vital role in my plan. I invested a huge amount of money in his alchemy project that ordinary people may not even dream of believing in their lifetime. But it's worth it."

He spread out his hands, proudly showing off his young, strong and energetic body.

“Behold, the miracle of alchemy, the creation of a combination of magic and technology by intelligent people, a young and perfect body.

Daitokuji’s technology makes things a lot more convenient. Alchemy allowed me to stay alive, buying me the necessary time otherwise I might have died before my plan got this far.

It also gave me cover. Tragodia is an idiot, but his short-term goal is the same as mine to steal the 'Three Phantom Demons' from you and Seto Kaiba. So I let him do the high-profile work while I stayed behind the scenes and avoided unwanted attention.

Just like the attention of troublesome people like you, Mr. Youyu. "

"So you used your trick and let Tragodia take your past body and use it as a puppet." You Yu said, "Tragodia thought that you and your Tiandi Imaging Club were his pawns and in his hands. Sword, but in fact he is your shield."

"That's right." Kagemaru said, "Thanks to him as a cover, I was able to carry out some necessary actions without attracting any attention. And everyone including you, Duel King Yuyu, you even thought I was dead.

I know you will think that the Seven Stars were sent out by Tragodia. You and the people from Department D also think that the slate of the Phantom Demon fell into Tragodia's hands.

But Tragodia is just a poor guy who was kept in the dark. In fact, I did all of that. Speaking of which, I have to thank that idiot Tragodia. If he hadn't attracted attention, I might not have made it this far. "

"Qixing, why did you send them to attack the students of Duel Academy?" You Yu asked.

He really couldn't see the point in it.

After all, although Qixing may generally be at the upper-middle level among Dark Duelists, in You Yu's eyes, he is just fighting against the fifth scum. They lined up like Calabash Boys to save grandpa and gave them away for free, without seeing any meaning.

"Of course I don't expect the 'Seven Stars' to be useful. Their level will not matter in front of you, Mr. Yuyu, I understand." Kagemaru smiled, "But have you ever thought that maybe the duel itself is the purpose? "

Youyu remembered.

It seems to be the same in the original work. The so-called "seven keys to seal the phantom demon" are actually just a cover. The process of sending Seven Stars to snatch the keys through a dark duel is actually the purpose in itself.

Even Chairman Kagemaru had made a plan when the academy was completed.

The three phantoms are demons that feed on the energy of duel monster spirits. The energy generated by the duelists in the duel can become food for the phantoms to a certain extent.

When he sent Nanahei to attack the students, Kagemaru didn't actually expect them to win. In fact, it doesn't matter who wins or loses to him, he just wants to provide enough energy for the three magic demons sealed on the island through the dark duel.

So at the end of the anime Three Phantom Demons, although Judai and others successfully defeated all the members of the Seven Stars, the seal was finally lifted, and the Three Phantom Demons still reappeared in the world.

But the difference here from the animation is that Kagemaru missed a small detail and a fatal detail.

"The three phantom demons were not sealed on the island at all." You Yu shrugged, "Maybe the purpose of you sending Qixing to attack was to replenish energy for the three phantom demons so that they can break the seal on their own? But you will be disappointed."

Kagemaru smiled: "Yes, I already know. Your alertness really surprised me, Mr. Youyu. I didn't expect that the seal on the island was actually a cover. The three phantom demons were not sealed there at all, but were Keep it close to you.

I must admit that I was defeated again in this regard. The "Seven Stars" plan was a complete failure. "

Despite what he said, Kagemaru maintained a calm smile from beginning to end. Combined with the pressure he felt from the moment he stepped into the building, this gave You Yu an ominous premonition.

"The three phantoms you are holding now were obtained after the phantom entity appeared in chaos and was sealed into cards, right?" Kagemaru suddenly asked.

You Yu did not deny it.

"But have you ever thought that no one in the world has ever discovered the phantom stone?"

You Yu's eyes turned cold.

"Don't tell me you"

"That's right." Kagemaru laughed loudly, "Fate made me discover them, in the forgotten corner of the world, the 'Phantom Demon' stone slabs that were sealed in ancient times!

The phantom recognized me, accepted me, allowed me to have that power and finally gave me this! "

He showed three cards that he had obviously prepared.

Cards of red, yellow, and blue colors have no stars or attributes on the card, and there are ferocious and arrogant monsters painted on the card.

It's the Three Phantom Demons!
