Is this the world of Yu-Gi-Oh? Ada thief!

Just when Hayato was worried about his physical condition, Tapiryo, who had been thinking for a long time, came to him and bowed to the dazed Hayato very solemnly: "Thank you very much, Hayato-kun, thank you for saving me." .”

"Ah? Oh. If that's the case, do you remember it, Tapiraka?" Hayato raised his head, glanced at Tapiroshi, and thought to himself: 'The rabbit-eared demon king in the previous duel is completely different from the shota now. Well'

After the dark game was launched, "Dark Tapirang" completely gave up on hiding the fact that he was not the original Tapirung. Not only did his face become ferocious and distorted, but his hair also became frizzy as if it hadn't been taken care of for ten days. There are two particularly long ones that look like rabbit ears.

In front of him was the real Tapiriang who was seriously thanking him. He had a beautiful face and skin so white and tender that he could squeeze out water. Her white broken hair falls down her shoulders, her two big watery eyes cast a weak gaze, and her slender figure is full of people————

What are you thinking!

Hayato pinched his thigh quickly, his eyebrows furrowed, and he complained in his heart that Jonouchi must have infected his strange thoughts to himself.

Tairiang didn't notice Hayato's unusual behavior, but said apologetically: "I'm sorry, Hayato-kun, my body has been controlled by that demon all this time. I can't resist him at all, and I have done many things I shouldn't have done." Things. I even almost hurt you."

Hayato waved his hand: "That doesn't matter, as long as you have the skills to beat the rabbit-eared devil. Compared to that, what I care more about is your mental state?"

"Well, my head hurts a lot, but I don't have the groggy feeling before. It's like a river without a filter. The originally blocked thoughts are unblocked." No matter what, I can't realize the existence of the other me. Even if it is controlled, I can only look at it. After waking up, I will forget everything."

While Tairiang was talking to Hayato, the bushes not far away were pushed aside, and several staff members dressed in black came out, people from the International Illusion Society. Seeing Hayato and Tairyo sitting together, several people were stunned for a moment, but then stepped forward.

One of them said hello to Hayato: "Mr. Hayato, we are here to take away the player Tapirang who has lost the qualification for the competition." The other people gathered next to Tapirang and pointed to him politely. The direction to go next. However, if Tapiryo showed any resistance, Hayato had no doubt that they would use force.

"Let me ask you, how did you confirm that Tapiryo was disqualified?" Hayato was a little confused.

The man in black explained: "That's it, Mr. Hayato. We have hidden exclusive information in each star chip, and when the chip is embedded in the dueling gloves, the gloves will activate this information and feed it back to the host server .”

"While preventing cheating and counterfeiting chips, can we also make timely statistics on which duelists deserve attention and which duelists have lost all their chips?" Hayato easily understood the logic behind the star chips.

As for how chips and gloves achieve this function? Hayato doesn't care, because the authentication system used by the Duel Monster cards themselves is even more outrageous than the star chips.

Seeing that several men in black were about to take Tapi Liang away, Hayato thought for a while and said, "I remember, my special invitation qualifications should not be used up yet, right?"

"Uh, yes, Mr. Hayato. Three of your special invitation qualifications have been used, and there is still one quota that has not been used." The man in black recalled it and replied.

"In that case, let's give the last spot to Tapirang. He is my classmate. But since he has lost his duelist qualifications, you can take back his duelist gloves. Is that okay?"

"...Well, no problem, Mr. Hayato." The man in black just thought for a while and then agreed. Although the temporary addition of special invitation qualifications is not in line with the work process, Hayato is Bekas's special invitation player this time and is still a very important celebrity. His request is not too excessive and can be completely satisfied.

Watching the men in black leave with their dueling gloves, Tairiang looked at Hayato who was resting leisurely against the tree trunk, and thanked him again: "Thank you very much, Hayato-kun."

"Don't be so polite. I mainly think it's boring to be alone when I'm free, so I just want to have someone to chat with." Although he has almost recovered, the side effects of summoning the [Earth Spirit God] have left Hayato still a little bit tired until now. Can't cheer up. He shook the [Millennium Wisdom Wheel] that was worn on his chest, "But as a reward, please leave this with me for the time being."

"Hayato-kun, you must be careful." Seeing Hayato playing with the [Millennium Wisdom Wheel] nonchalantly, Tapirang couldn't help but think of his past experiences, and reminded Hayato worriedly, "This is something ominous."

"Unknown thing?! Where is it!"

It was not Hayato who was leaning on the tree trunk who responded to Tairiang, the voice came from behind him. The two of them looked around and saw a bearded man about 1.9 meters tall running towards this side with excitement on his face, still shouting: "Where is there something ominous!!!"

"Boss!!!" Behind the bearded man was a man in a suit, carrying a backpack that was almost larger than the whole person. He also carried a briefcase in each hand, closely following the running bearded man. Behind him, "Boss! Please slow down!"

The excited bearded man in the front turned a deaf ear to the shouts of the man in a suit behind him, and just ran to Hayato and Tapira. His face was flushed from exercise or excitement, and he shouted with a loud voice: "Unknown." Where is the thing!"

"Uh...probably, maybe, here?" Hayato was a little confused. Who is this person? Subconsciously, he raised the [Millennium Wheel of Wisdom] he was playing with.

"Oh oh oh! This is it! It just looks like something ominous!" The bearded man looked at the [Millennium Wisdom Wheel] with his eyes gleaming and said excitedly, "Young man, I will buy this————!"

"Please wait!"

The man in the suit finally arrived in front of the bearded man, holding two briefcases in one hand, and inserted his free hand between Hayato and the bearded man. First, he nodded and apologized to Hayato and said, "Please forgive me." Then he immediately took the bearded hand and said, "Boss, please stop buying those weird things!"

"Haha, that's not possible." The bearded man laughed boldly, pulled aside the man in a suit who was blocking the way, and continued to Hayato: "Young man, how much did you pay? I bought this 'unknown thing' !”

"Well, I'm sorry, uncle, this is not for sale." Hayato scratched the back of his head and looked at the strange bearded man in front of him.

"Don't be like this, little brother, the price is negotiable." The bearded man did not give up easily, and was about to continue talking when he saw the dueling gloves on the hand that Hayato raised to scratch his head.

I don't know what the bearded man was thinking, but Ti suddenly laughed, startling Hayato: "Hahahahaha, I see, that's how it is, I understand!"

"Now that our eyes have crossed, let's have a duel, unknown duelist!"
