Welcome to the Duelist Arena!

Cai Qiankui was stunned for a moment, then his blood immediately surged up, and he shouted in shame and anger: "Wait! Brother, how did you know about this? I obviously didn't disclose any information to you! Could it be that , it’s Playmaker and Revolver, no, with their personalities, it’s impossible for them to do this kind of thing! So, is it the AI’s fault?”

The AI ​​who was eating melon on the side saw that the flames of war were suddenly burning on him, and he immediately said dissatisfied: "Hey, Blue Angel, don't accuse me unfairly. How can I have time to do that kind of thing!"

"But among the people here, you are the only one who is likely to do such a thing!"

"Well, what you said makes sense? I can't even refute it?"

AI thought for a while and was speechless. It seemed that he was the only one here who would do that kind of thing, but he really wasn't the one who did it.

Akira Zaizen glanced at Aoi Zaizen speechlessly: "Aoi, can you look at the problem more comprehensively? We are not the only ones in this world."

Cai Qiankui was dumbfounded. Wait, could it be that her brother bought the information from duelists in other worlds at the end of the last round of the arena? This is too overwhelming!

Chapter 326: Chong Guojian’s traitor effect, nine duel cutscenes (two in one)

During the exchange between everyone in VRAINS, the text on the big screen stopped beating again, and the duelists for the eighth Bad Luck Cup duel were also determined, namely Minazuki and Jonouchi.

"In the city, be careful. Shui Wuyue is really strong. Even under the rules of the Bad Luck Cup, you must not be careless at all!"

Seeing Jonouchi bumping into Minazuki, Yami Yugi also reminded him seriously. After all, he won the team duel with Minazuki. He knew very well how powerful Minazuki was.

"I know!"

Jonouchi nodded seriously. In this arena, no matter who his opponent was, he had no right to be careless.

Shizuka was a little confused: "Obviously, Minazuki helped the game and our DM world win a victory before, but now we have to face off against my brother again?"

Jonouchi smiled and rubbed Shizuka's head: "This is a duelist! And we are just having a normal duel. This will not have any bad effects on our personal relationship, just like me and Yugi. We’ve had many duels, haven’t we?”

Peacock Dance whispered: "No, it would be better to say that the bad influence is not something that an ordinary duel can bring, right?"

Jonouchi was stunned for a moment, and then fell into silence.

Shizuka looked at Peacock Wu in confusion, then followed Peacock Wu's gaze to Rebecca and Kyoko, and also fell into silence.

Yami Yugi calmly looked away. This had nothing to do with him. It was Yugi who confessed to Kyoko, and what Rebecca liked was also Yugi. He was just a melon-eater. Well, at least he was. Think so.

On the other side, Minazuki decisively took away the dozen cards on top of the deck and put them away, then shuffled the deck again and put it into the duel disk.

Jack and others on the side were immediately filled with questions, and Long Ya was even more curious and said directly: "Mizunayuki, why did you take away the cards at the top of the deck?"

Master KD smiled and replied: "That's a waste piece."

"Scrap?"

Yusei couldn't help but frown.

Seeing Yusei's expression, Master KD also understood what Yusei was thinking, and laughed and said: "The scraps we are talking about are not the scraps you think of, but cards that can only play a specific role in specific situations. If those cards are added to the deck, the upper limit of the deck will be greatly enhanced, and there will be ways to deal with various difficulties, but the stability of the deck will be reduced, especially in such bad luck. In the cup, if the waste pieces are not removed, hand accidents will definitely occur due to the waste pieces.”

Jack looked at Yusei thoughtfully. So, wouldn't it mean that most of the cards in Yusei's deck are useless?

"Since we have already picked out the waste pieces from the deck, why do we have to wait until the duel is about to begin to eliminate the waste pieces?"

Crowe was still a little confused.

Master KD shrugged: "Although they are all scrap pieces, there are differences in the scrap pieces, so Minazuki was also hesitant about how many scrap pieces he should remove. But after seeing that his opponent was Jonouchi, he should have removed all the scrap pieces. All scraps were eliminated.”

Yusei, Jack and others are once again full of questions. Is Katsuya Jonouchi, a duelist, so threatening? So that Shui Wuyue didn't dare to take any risks and directly chose the safest way of playing?

Minazuki: What can I do? She is Jonouchi, the mistress of the goddess of luck. Although it is said that all luck has been removed in the Bad Luck Cup, but who knows if Jonouchi's luck can break through the limit?

DM everyone: Wait, Lady Luck’s concubine? So Lady Luck is actually?

Peacock Dance:? ? ?

...

"Duel!!!" X2

After the pleasantries, Minazuki and Jonouchi started the duel directly.

Then, the two of them shed cold sweat while looking at their cards.

Minazuki: Dalingfeng Xiangjianmen, Xiangjianshi-Tai'a, Jet Synchronizer, Stationery Cyborg 001, Advertising Slogan

Within the castle: Ruby Treasure Notes, True Red-Eyed Young Dragon, True Red-Eyed Evil Star Dragon - Meteor Dragon, Cyborg - Telekinesis Shocker, True Red-Eyed Teeth with Chains

Although the cards in both hands are not as extreme as the two Judai, but have both magic trap cards and monster cards, and the cards in their hands are not completely devoid of monsters that can be summoned, but neither of them can move very much. .

‘Damn it, luckily I removed all those waste pieces in advance, otherwise I would have been stuck! ’

‘Hiss, it’s a good thing that I didn’t add all the cards that Becas gave me to my deck at once, but I made a selection. Otherwise, I might have started as high as that guy from Kaiba. ’

"Um, you come first?"

"Okay, I'll go first and draw a card! I summon a monster in face-down defense position, then cover it with two cards to end the round."

[Within the city: Hand cards: 5 cards → 6 cards → 3 cards, cover cards: 2 cards, health value: 4000]

"My turn, draw a card! Uh..."

Jonouchi simply stacked three cards and ended the round. Then, it was Minazuki's turn to be in trouble. His hand of cards was a bit tricky. If he could send a few of them to the grave, things would go smoothly, but if Just like Jonouchi, the card is over. He is worried that he will not be able to last his next turn. After all, there are still two cards in Jonouchi's backcourt. This means that although Jonouchi is also stuck, he may still be better. Does he want to be better?

"Then, I summon the swordsman Tai'a in attack position! Entering the battle phase, use Tai'a to attack the monster on the inside in defense position!"

"Bang!!!"

Under Minazuki's order, Tai'a struck down with his sword, splitting the guarding monster inside the castle into two halves, and then exploded.

"Are you using a synchronized deck this time? Then I would like to thank you for your help!"

"What?!"

"The monster defeated by your Swordsman Tai'a is the Red-Eyes Drake. I activate the effect of the Red-Eyes Drake. This card can only be activated when it is destroyed by battle and sent to the graveyard. I will remove a level 7 card from the deck. The following red-eyed monster is Special Summoned, and this card in the graveyard is used as an equipment card with an attack power increased by 300 to equip that monster! I special summon a level 4 red-eyed monster, Red-Eyed Wyvern, from the deck in attack position, and equip it to that monster. The true red-eyed baby dragon equips the true red-eyed flying dragon!"

"Red-Eyed Young Dragon and True Red-Eyed Flying Dragon, are these some of the cards Bekas gave you? Then, I will end the combat phase, cover a card, and end this round."

[Mizunazuki: Hand cards: 5 cards → 6 cards → 4 cards, cover card: 1 card, life value: 4000]

Looking at the red-eyed flying dragon in the city with higher attack power than Tai'a, Shui Wuyue breathed a sigh of relief. If the red-eyed flying dragon defeated Tai'a, he could activate the effect of the Great Spirit Peak Sword Gate to revive Tai'a, and then use Tai'a. Except for the Great Spirit Peak Xiangjianmen, it can be deployed, and the cards he covers on the field can still be used to retrieve one advertising slogan when the opponent searches for it. As long as Jonouchi uses another effect of the Red-Eyed Young Dragon to retrieve the corresponding one card, he can also retrieve one from the deck, and he can successfully deploy it no matter what.

Then, Jonouchi offered the Red-Eyed Flying Dragon as a sacrifice, and his superiors summoned the artificial man-Psychic Shocker, which made Minazuki feel a little numb.

Because the original version of the Android-Psychic Shocker can not only invalidate all trap cards on the field, but can also use the effect called 'Trap Search' to destroy the trap cards on the field. Therefore, even if Jonouchi uses the Red-Eyed Young Dragon's third The two effects retrieved the Black Dragon's Hatchling from the deck and added it to the hand. Minazuki was unable to use the advertising slogan and retrieved it. On the contrary, the advertising slogan was directly destroyed by the effect of the Cyborg-Psychic Shocker.

And that's not all. In the next turn, Minazuki used the effect of the Great Soul Peak Sword Gate to resurrect Tai'a, and then used Tai's effect to specially summon the Xiangjian derivative. He planned to synchronize Summon Xiangjian with Tai'a and the Xiangjian derivative. When Sword Master - Akashi, Jonouchi suddenly used the chain of another chance (original card) and the red-eyed tooth with a chain, directly turning Tai'a into the equipment card of the red-eyed flying dragon that was resurrected from the cemetery, so , Shui Wuyue was completely numb.

Although he still has two adjustment monsters, Jet Synchro and Stationery Cyborg 001, the Xiangjian derivatives specially summoned by the effects of Xiangjian series cards have special restrictions. As long as the Xiangjian derivatives exist , you can't special summon monsters other than synchro monsters from the extra deck, so Minazuki was tricked to death by the Xiangjian derivatives.

After the duel, Jack and Crowe looked at Minazuki who returned to the audience speechlessly.

"So why do you want to change the deck back to a synchronized deck? Under the rules of the Bad Luck Cup, the XYZ deck that already has the Assault Raptor - Necronomicon Vulture can play its best role, right?"

Master KD touched his chin: "Maybe he is worried about encountering the same situation as Kurosaki Hayabusa with a hand full of upgrade magic. After all, the main focus of the Assault Raptor deck is upgrade. If Minazuki uses those upgrade magic If you remove it, the Assault Raptor deck will be completely useless, but if you don't remove the upgrade magic, the chance of getting stuck is too high, so I chose a synchronized deck that seems more stable."

Shui Wuyue said without tears: "No, you are wrong. The deck I just used is not a pure synchro link deck. My extra deck also contains XYZ monsters. Even I also considered the role of elves and added the Assault Raptor-Necrovulture to the main deck, but I had no chance to use those things.”

Yusei and the others fell into silence. The restriction on the Sword of Aspects derivatives was indeed a bit confusing. If the Sword of Aspects derivatives did not have that restriction, Mizunotsuki could directly link summon Crystal Artifact - Inherited Fiberglass, and then take off in one go.

KD Master couldn't help but reveal a sad () expression: "So why did you think of adding Chongguojian to the deck? Now it's good, you're eliminated in the first round, and you can't even participate in the semi-finals, haha."

Mizunotsuki's face darkened. He couldn't predict the future, so how could he have thought that he would be trapped by the restriction on Sword of Aspects derivatives.

"Huh! It's okay! Even if I advance to the semi-finals, I can't win the championship. If I don't win the championship, then it doesn't matter whether I'm eliminated in the first round or get the runner-up! Anyway, there's no reward! And I still have a ring challenge to participate in this round!"

Mizunotsuki could only comfort himself in this way.

Master KD curled his lips. Although he didn't think he could win the championship under the rules of the Bad Luck Cup, after all, bad luck under the rules of the Bad Luck Cup is far more decisive than strength, but the dream should still be there.

Then, the first round of the Bad Luck Cup continued.

In the ninth game, Peacock Dance played against Yusaku and Ai. There was really nothing to say about this round. After adjusting the deck, the monsters in Yusaku's deck were either monsters below level 4 or monsters that could be special summoned above level 4. He even exchanged monster cards such as Priest with card drawing effects. Yusaku also put three cards in the deck, plus a series of magic cards to supplement the hand, so Peacock Dance could only lose the duel again.

In the tenth game, Xiang Lu played against Qiu. Although Qiu, who was stuck in his hand, summoned a lot of monsters, he was completely unable to get the level required for synchro, and lost the duel helplessly.

In the eleventh match, Manjome fought against Reiji. Although Manjome had tried his best, the ARC-V World, which focused on Pendulum Summoning, and VRAINS, which focused on Link Summoning, did have a little more advantage under the rules of the Bad Luck Cup. In addition, Reiji's strength was not weak either, so Manjome was unfortunately defeated in the end.

In the twelfth match, Yusei fought against Kuro. It was another civil war, but this time, Kuro won. There was no other way. There were too many meaningless cards (junk pieces) in Yusei's deck that could only play a role under certain conditions. Although he had specially adjusted the deck, there were still many meaningless cards left. Then Yusei was beaten by Kuro and became the second protagonist to be eliminated after the tenth generation.

In the 13th match, Caesar played against Kusanagi. Although Caesar's card drawing ability was sealed, Kusanagi's deck had more advantages under the rules of the Bad Luck Cup, but Kusanagi's strength was not particularly strong, so Kusanagi still lost, and Caesar became the only duelist in the GX world to advance to the semi-finals, leaving Manjome and Judai speechless. Caesar, whose card drawing ability was sealed, advanced, but they, whose strength was intact, failed to win the duel. This was really shameful.

In the 14th match, Marufuji Ryo played against Ryoga. The Cyber ​​Dragon deck was really stuck, and Ryoga had already received a lot of enhancements, so Marufuji Ryo was taken away by Ryoga in one wave.

In the 15th match, Kaito Amagi vs. Aoi Zaizen. Because the opponent was not a ghost, Miss Idol did not take out the new deck that had been prepared, but was prepared to continue to use the Naughty Star deck to deal with it. However, the level of Miss Idol's Naughty Star deck was also well known. Although Miss Idol was also working hard to learn during this period, the new deck took away Miss Idol's energy. Coupled with bad luck, Miss Idol, who took the first attack, was directly killed by Kaito Amagi who did not hold back at all, and was killed instantly.

In the 16th match, Jack fought against Serena. Adhering to the style that women are very troublesome, Jack did not hold back at all like Kaito Amagi. After a difficult one-on-one draw, he directly took out the Savior Dragon and directly defeated Serena, who was also in the one-on-one draw state and could not even summon the ace monster.

In the 17th match, Manjomujum vs. Kaito. After winning two consecutive rounds, Manjomujum finally tasted the taste of defeat, but Douzi's undefeated myth continued.

Match 18, ARC-V Civil War, Yuya vs. Yuto!

Chapter 327: A novel way to play, get the power of Zac for free (two-in-one)

Audience seats, ARC-V area, Yuya and Yuto looked at each other in bewilderment. In the end, only the two of them were left. This was really unlucky. Although it was the Bad Luck Cup, it shouldn't be unlucky from the moment of selecting the opponent.

"I remember that Mr. Xingyuan said that it's best not to duel with people who look like us, right?"

Yuya spoke with a somewhat tangled look on his face.

Yuto said helplessly: "It's not that it's best not to, but that you must not."

"That is to say, we can't continue this duel, right? Only one of us can admit defeat..."

"Forget it, I'll admit defeat."

Yuto was too lazy to argue with Yuya. Anyway, his brother-in-law Kurosaki Hayabusa had successfully advanced, and his deck was not very suitable for the rules of the Bad Luck Cup, so he just gave the promotion quota to this naive guy.

"Ah, this..."

Youya was stunned. Was he going to give the spot to him directly? This made him feel a little guilty!

"Ahem, don't rush to admit defeat. I have a suggestion."

At this time, Xingyuan suddenly spoke, attracting everyone's attention.

"Since neither of you has much in mind for promotion, then let's say you are both eliminated in this match. As compensation for being eliminated at the same time, I can let you participate in a new way of playing."

"New way of playing?"

"Yes, a new way of playing. I will use my power to help you isolate the negative effects of the existence in your body, and you will fight with all your strength. How about that?"

Hearing this, Yuya and Yudou were puzzled. Since both of them would be eliminated, what was the point of isolating the negative effects and fighting a duel?

On the side, Ling'er's eyes suddenly lit up: "Mr. Xingyuan, since you said that you would help them isolate negative effects, does that mean that there are also positive effects?"

"Isn't it obvious? If there is no positive effect, I would not say that I would help them isolate negative effects, but would I say that I would help them isolate effects? So, do you want to accept it? As long as I help you isolate negative effects, you can continue to use the power in your body to print cards under certain conditions. It is equivalent to a card printing rule that can be used many times in a duel without paying any price. Of course, the cards printed in this way basically have no elves."

"I accept!" X2

Yoya and Yuto made their choices without hesitation. They can continue to use the power in their bodies without paying any price. Isn't this free? How can you miss the opportunity to get something for free!

The duelists in other areas fell into silence. They always felt that the existence in the bodies of these two people was a bit miserable, which made them feel a little sympathetic to that existence, well, a little bit.

"Then you can start adjusting your decks. After all, this is a novel way of playing that does not belong to the Bad Luck Cup, and of course you don't have to follow the rules of the Bad Luck Cup. In this case, the decks you prepared for the Bad Luck Cup are not quite appropriate."

As he said this, Xingyuan waved his hand, and the portal to the special space appeared in front of the two again.

Seeing this, Yuya and Yudou walked into the special space one after another after explaining a few words to Yuzu and Liuli, which made Yuwu on the side smack his lips. According to what Akaba Linger and others said, he should have the same characteristics, right? It's a pity that he hasn't got the status of an official member yet, otherwise, this duel might be a three-person melee, what a pity.

While Yuwu was sighing with emotion, the smart people in the audience were all in deep thought. Suddenly taking out this novel way of playing, Mr. Xingyuan might be a little tired of watching the Bad Luck Cup duel, so he wanted to change his taste?

......

"Duel!!!" x2

After drawing the top five cards of the deck, Yuya and Yuto looked at their own cards and felt relieved. The normal cards were not affected by the rules of the Bad Luck Cup.

"It seems that the first attack is assigned to me, so I won't hesitate to draw a card! Uh..."

Then, Yuya fell into deep thought again. Under certain conditions, the power of the existence in the body can be used to print cards, but what are these so-called specific conditions?

Is it the same passionate emotion and strong desire for victory as the rules of printing cards? Let's try it!

"Although this duel has nothing to do with the Bad Luck Cup, since it is a duel, the goal is to win! I set the pendulum scale for the Star Reading Magician at scale 1 and the Time Reading Magician at scale 8! This way I can summon monsters from level 2 to level 7 at the same time! Swing, Soul Pendulum! Draw an arc of light in the sky! Pendulum Summon! Appear! My monsters!!"

"Are you starting with Star Reading and Time Reading?"

Under Yuto's solemn gaze, two streams of orange-yellow light also descended from the hole and transformed into the figures of two monsters.

"The effect of Entertainment Partner Jelly Bean Runner (original card) can only be activated when this card is successfully Pendulum Summoned. I draw the number of Entertainment Partner monsters that can be Pendulum Summoned at the same time from the deck! The monsters I Pendulum Summon are Entertainment Partner Jelly Bean Runner and Entertainment Partner Mechanical Eye Lizard, so I draw two cards, draw cards! Very good, I will activate the effect of Entertainment Partner Mechanical Eye Lizard (original version) again. Once in the turn when this card is successfully summoned or special summoned, you can activate it by declaring the card name of a different-eyed monster, and use the card name of this card as the declared card name! I declare Different-Eyes Pendulum Dragon, so that Mechanical Eye Lizard can be used as Different-Eyes Pendulum Dragon this turn!"

As Yuya explained, the shadow of Different-Eyes Pendulum Dragon also appeared behind Mechanical Eye Lizard.

"Change the card name to Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon, and plan to perform a Fusion Summon?"

"As you said! I summon Entertainment Partner Poker Witch in Attack Position, and activate the effect of Poker Witch. You can activate this card by releasing it, and choose a card from my deck or graveyard to add to your hand! I release Poker Witch and add Fusion from the deck to your hand! Then, activate the magic card, Fusion! Fusion the Jelly Bean Gallop on the field with the Mechanical Eye Lizard used by Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon! Come on, the unknown existence in my body, if you want to taste the taste of victory, give me the power!"

Zack: ? ? ? Am I being threatened? And you guys don't even want to borrow the word?
