Yu-Gi-Oh! Starting from Duel City

Just as Yu Ling guessed, Naia, who had an inexplicable obsession with the fairness of the duel and Kaiba himself, took the initiative to show up and exposed the cheating methods of the five elders, and indirectly helped Jonouchi. The focus was again on the Kaiba brothers.

At this time, Kaiba and Wang Xiang also defeated their respective opponents and opened the door to the next space.

As the members of the Five Elders were repelled one by one by You Ling and Wang Yang, they completed their mission and took away the lunch boxes. The people who were scattered in this virtual world finally gathered together from different roads.

And when everyone advanced and gathered together to reach the final virtual space, Naia, the mastermind behind the scenes, also took the initiative to show up and appeared in front of everyone with arms folded.

Like the previous five elders, Naia also blocked everyone's path as the boss at the end of the level.

It is not enough to defeat Naia's five elders. Only by defeating Naia himself can everyone in this virtual space truly leave safely and go to the island where the duel tower is located to participate in the duel. The final four in the second half of the city.

"Bang bang - bang! Welcome, Seto... and the other duelists who successfully passed the test. As I expected, you defeated the five elders' gang and arrived here safely. Woolen cloth."

The gates that appear in various places all connect to the place where Naia is.

His eyes swept over the people who came out of different doors and appeared in front of him. Naia finally stopped at Kaiba who was among the crowd.

President Kaiba, who was being stared at by Naia, also snorted habitually, then turned his gaze back without hesitation, and looked at Naia who was looking at him.

"Naia, you guy... what is your purpose?!"

Since being forced to come to the interior of this maritime fortress, Kaiba has been in a relatively passive state.

He was forced to accept Naiya's conditions, forced to fight against the five elders who were the undead of the past, and then at this moment, he was forced to face Naiya again. This appearance was very different from that of his young self. Highly similar opponents.

This made Kaiba, who had originally planned to win the final victory in the Duel Tower in one go and prove that he was the strongest, feel a sense of dissatisfaction from the bottom of his heart.

If Naiya, the "Cheng Yaojin" who came out halfway, hadn't been in the way, according to Kaiba's pre-arrangement, he would probably have defeated all his opponents by now and become the final "Duel King"!

"Huh...you ask me about my purpose? My purpose is very simple, that is to prove that I am better than you and more qualified than you to inherit the Kaiba Company!"

He pointed at himself and then at the seahorse in the crowd. Under everyone's gaze, Naia, who stood at the end of the last virtual space and stopped in front of everyone, smiled and said: " Let’s not talk about this for now, Seto, why don’t you take a look at the surrounding environment? The scenery here is beautiful, isn’t it?”

"……view?"

Hearing Naia's voice, Kaiba, who was eager to leave this space, had time to observe the surrounding environment.

The scenery as far as the eye can see is like a desolate scene after a volcanic eruption. The sky is also obscured by thick smoke and dust, losing its blue color.

In this space, there is no scenery that can be called "beautiful".

If I had to describe it, it would be better to say that this place should be called the end of the world.

"Is it beautiful... here?"

He also scanned the surrounding scenery, and saw Yu Ling with the same astonished expression on the faces of everyone around him, and finally turned his attention to Naia, who had his arms spread out.

From Naia's face, You Ling did not see a mocking or teasing look.

This also means that what he said just now is exactly what he really thinks in his heart.

In Naia's eyes, he did think that the scenery in front of him could be called "beautiful", even if the last space was actually just a wasteland.

"What are you kidding me, guy?"

Walking out of the crowd and confronting Naia who was standing opposite, President Kaiba, who looked not very good-looking, retorted without any scruples in the direction of Naia: "Don't you guys have eyes? Here. Is there any scenery worth looking at? Or are you deliberately teasing me?"

"Here is what the newly born primitive earth looked like."

Not paying attention to Kaiba's taunt, Naia pointed around: "As long as we have Kaiba's technology, we can easily create the vast universe or the barren land like now."

"As long as we make good use of this technology, even wars or revolutions of consciousness...even things that drastically change human history can be easily accomplished, right?"

Seeing the essence through phenomena, Naiya feels that the beautiful things may not be what ordinary people understand, but the future with infinite possibilities hidden behind these scenes.

The current scene may indeed be desolate, but it is also a man-made scenery, created by the technology of Haima Company.

Technology with this ability can already be called beautiful.

"You guy, stop being the Riddler for me!"

President Kaiba, who was not interested in listening to Naia's talk about the pros and cons of virtual space and other uses, waved his arm vigorously: "If you have anything to say, please explain it clearly to me!"

"Ha, I'm very unwilling, Seto..."

Naia snorted indifferently at President Kaiba's rebuke, raised her palms, and slowly closed them: "With such an excellent technique, you only use it in games and duels." Go up?! Isn’t this too much of a waste of natural resources?”

"Seto, let's make a final decision right here, shall we? Let's see who is truly qualified to be the commander-in-chief of Kaiba Company!"

Pointing at himself with his thumb, Naia continued: "I, Naia Kaiba, am the biological son of Gozaburo Kaiba... Seto, the Kaiba Company in your hands should have been my property, but now Here, I will take back what is rightfully mine with my own hands!"

"Hmph! What you're talking about makes no sense at all."

"……What did you say?"

Disdainful of Naia's speech, Kaiba said to him who still looked like a child: "Naia, you are dead. On the way here, I have learned the truth of everything in the world of memory. , due to a car accident when you were a child, you died long before I was adopted!"

The truth of the matter is just as Kaiba said.

While Yu Ling was busy saving the world, Kaiba was not idle either. Instead, he and Keipei explored various parts of the virtual space here, and found Naia's past in a hidden corner. Information.

Naia, who was born as the biological son of Kaiba Gozaburo, was given great responsibilities from birth.

He was originally meant to compete with Kaiba, his adopted son, but due to a traffic accident while growing up, he died before he could compete.

Later, Seto Kaiba took control of Kaiba Company from Gozaburo Kaiba, abandoned all military industries, and turned to the field of game development. This is how Kaiba Company is today, and Duel prospered in the world. The phenomenon.

The game industry that Gosaburo dismissed at the beginning as just children's play house has now become popular all over the world and has become a pillar industry of the Kaiba Group.

On the other hand, Gosaburo, who said he wanted to conquer the world with military force, not only failed to achieve his goal, but ended his sinful life at the speed of light.

"Haha...so you've already seen that record? That's easy to say."

After experiencing a brief moment of astonishment, a look of understanding appeared on Naia's face.

After getting the information she wanted from Kaiba, Naia put her palm on her chest calmly and responded calmly: "Yes, Seto... the body you see now , it is indeed a virtual image, something that does not exist, but only this place is different."

Naia, who said this, pointed at his brain with the finger of his right hand: "My brain and my consciousness are all hidden in this undersea fortress built with the technology of Kaiba Corporation... Even if my body dies due to an accident, my consciousness can survive forever in this way."

"Seto, even if you die of aging one day in the future, I will not share the same fate as you."

Just like Naia said, after he died young due to an accident, Kaiba Gozaburo used his last resort to preserve Naia's consciousness and connected him with the man who was originally intended to be used in the military. The two giants are combined together, allowing him to live in the virtual world in this special way.

If Naia had not had an accident, President Kaiba and his younger brother Keipei would not have been adopted by Gozaburo who lost his beloved son, and naturally nothing would have happened next.

If I have to say it, all of this may be an arrangement of fate.

"Seto, in fact, you are not qualified to inherit Kaiba Company. After all, you are just my replacement found by my father Gozaburo."

Smiling slightly, Naia turned her gaze in the direction of Kaiba, who subconsciously squinted his eyes after hearing these words: "But, if I just declare the end to you directly, and then take away your body by force If so, it would be a bit unfair.”

"So here, let us use your best duel method to draw the final conclusion."

"A duel? If that's the case..."

Although he was extremely unhappy with Naia's words, if it was a duel, that would have to be discussed separately. At least Kaiba had no intention of losing.

"That's right. If you lose to me in a duel, you probably won't have anything to say."

Having said this, Kaiba Naia stretched out her left arm in front of her body.

The next moment, a ray of light automatically gathered on his arm and transformed into a duel disk.

Looking down at the duel plate on his hand, Naia immediately unfolded it and pointed it at Kaiba: "Seto, my next opponent will be you. If you plan to save your companions, If you plan to leave here safely with your brother, then defeat me in a duel!"

"Hmph, from the time I was born until now, I have not lived for other people for even a moment! If anyone wants to tarnish this path of glory that continues to my future, no matter who it is, I will not Wouldn’t forgive easily, but crush it with these hands!”

Refuting Naia's words, Kaiba stretched out his arms in synchronization and unfolded the duel disk in his hand: "Let's duel! Naia, my deck leader has been chosen, it is the monster with the same name as me——[ Imperial Seahorse]!”

As Kaiba finished speaking, the 4-star light-attributed sea dragon that he chose as the leader of the deck, a humanoid monster with 1,700 attack points, also appeared next to him in the next moment.

"Hehehehe... I have been looking forward to this moment for a long time. Okay, now let's have a showdown! Seto!"

"——Duel!"×2

As the duel began to sound, the two people facing each other were ready for the duel at the same time.

At this time, everyone including Yu Ling, Jonouchi, and Wang Xiang tacitly stepped aside to witness the duel that followed between Naia and Kaiba.

(Seto Kaiba LP: 4000)

(Kaiba Naia LP: 4000)

"I'll attack first! I'm going to attack, Naia!"

Taking the lead in the duel, Kaiba waved his arms vigorously in this apocalyptic virtual world and pulled out the card at the top of the deck: "My turn, draw a card!"

"I summon the [Giant Virus] in my hand in attack position (attack power: 1000), then ambush a card, and the round ends."

After summoning a monster, it is followed by a cover card that lurks in the backfield.

Kaiba, who ended the first round in this satisfactory way, handed over the initiative to Naia on the opposite side.

Full of confidence in this duel, he immediately turned his attention to the card in his backfield... that terrifying trap card with the ability to destroy the opponent's deck!

——

[Death Card Destruction Virus]

(Trap card)

It can be activated only when a dark monster with an attack power of less than 1000 on your field is destroyed by battle. Destroy all monsters with an attack power of 1500 or more on the opponent's field, hand, or deck.
