After staying in the warehouse for a few hours, everyone more or less got the cards they wanted to strengthen and supplement their own decks.

As the host, Tenma Yako’s kindness was hard to refuse. In the end, even Yugi picked a few cards that he thought would be useful and made minor adjustments to his deck.

After finishing the work, Yugi and his friends went back to their respective hotel rooms to rest temporarily under the arrangement of Yako.

As for Yuei Vu, he followed Tenma Yako to the base of the Industrial Illusions’ fighting forces.

Back then, Pegasus was also the king who dominated an era. Bringing back the game of dueling monsters to the modern world and making this long-lost ritual become mainstream of Shadow Game again, Pegasus was also a legend at that time.

Before he was pulled down from the throne by Muto Yuki in the Duelist Kingdom, and then the Millennium Eye was taken away by an unknown person, he had supreme status among the Shadow Duelists all over the world.

It was conceivable that it is impossible for a king with such a huge power not to have his own organization of Shadow Duelists. Before the collapse of Pegasus, even Ghouls, which was also led by a holder of Millenium Items, had never dared to challenge the Industrial Illusions directly.

Even now, this organization was also one of the most powerful among the dark organizations in the world.

…So it’s not hard to imagine why their members felt dissatisfied when Tenma Yako introduced this “commander” who popped up suddenly.

It was true that Yuei Vu, who was a Duel King, could basically make a living by brushing his face in a world where card players were respected. It was impossible for all the Shadow Duelists to not recognize his handsome face.

But whether recognizing his face was one thing, and admitting his strength was another matter.

When Tenma Yako brought Yuei Vu to the headquarters and had just told the duelists to follow Yuei Vu’s command, some people immediately expressed their displeasure.

Anyway, Yuei Vu was also an outsider, who belonged to Nightcrawler World and Kaiba Corp, and had nothing to do with the Industrial Illusions. Not everyone would accept an outsider to rashly participate in this kind of battle that was related to the survival of their Industrial Illusions—and to play such an important role.

However, Tenma Yako said blankly at the time: “Yuei Vu was personally approved by Mr. Pegasus, and this is also my decision. If anyone finds it unacceptable…”

As he spoke, he raised the dueling disc on his arm.

“…Then you have to pass through me first.”

Yuei Vu: “…”

What should I say?

It is indeed the underground organization of the Industrial Illusions, and Yako is indeed the number one seed player under Pegasus.

…By the way, you usually don’t make all your decisions by playing cards, right?

Which department is the quarterly fund allocated to? Everyone plays cards to decide.

Do you want to buy stocks? Everyone plays cards to decide.

Salaries, benefits, and personnel decisions all depend on playing cards.

…It’s all about playing cards.

But Yuei Vu didn’t intend to let Yako solve this small problem for him. He stepped forward and patted Yako on the shoulder: “It’s okay, I’ll just come here by myself.”

Yako frowned: “But Mr. Yuei Vu…”

“It’s okay, I’ll take care of it soon.”

As Yuei Vu said, he turned his head and looked at the few who were clamoring in disbelief.

In fact, Tenma Yako’s prestige in the headquarters was still high enough, and Yuei Vu’s fame as the Duel King could not be understated, so there were not many people who stand up and express their dissatisfaction without concealment.

There were a total of three people standing here, a middle-aged man named Cedar Mill, a bespectacled guy named Kirk Dixon, and an unshaven uncle named Deschutes Lew.

The three were all masters in the Industrial Illusions known as “Card Professors” under Pegasus.

Speaking of it, it seemed natural for the Shadow Duelists to decide everything by playing cards, but now they really want to make a move, but the three look at each other, as if they are saying: Brother, hurry up! You were the bravest so you must go first!

After all, the opponent was the Duel King, and it was only human to be a little cowardly when it was time to be cowardly…

But Yuei Vu quickly and considerately helped them solve this small problem. He waved his hand: “Don’t worry about it, save time, you three go together.”

Not only these three people but everyone present at the base was shocked.

One versus three? Are you so confident?

Duel Monsters was like no other game. One versus three meant that the opponent has three times your resources, and three times the field area. With such a huge disadvantage, very few people could win.

Tenma Yako was also startled in his heart, but he soon came back to his senses.

Since Mr. Yuei Vu said he wanted to play 1 vs 3, then he must have considered it in his heart.

So he also said: “Okay. If there is no objection, the duel will be between Mr. Yuei Vu and the three Card Professors, and it will follow the latest rules of the Tag Team battle.

Mr. Yuei Vu is a team of one person, while Card Professors are a team of three. Both sides will have one turn, and the team with a large number of players must replace one player every time it is their turn to play cards.

Then the same team shared 4000LP, the graveyard area is shared…”

In fact, it was basically a version of “Yu-Gi-Oh! 3D Bonds Beyond Time”, in which Paradox fought against three generations of protagonists. Just that fact was enough for him to be the most courageous villain in the history of Yu-Gi-Oh!

Such rules smooth out the difference in LP and the number of turns caused by the difference in the number of duelists, and to a certain extent reduced the difficulty of one-vs-many.

However, the glasses guy named Kirk seemed to think that this was not enough, he pushed his glasses and said in a deep voice, “I have a presumptuous request. Why don’t we conduct our duel according to the Battle Royal rules?”

Tenma Yako frowned.

Battle Royal rules were different from Tag Team rules.

According to the Battle Royal rules, all duelists in the area fought independently, each had 4000LP and their own turn in a round.

This meant that Yuei Vu must use 4000LP to fight the three Card Professors with a total of 12000LP.

And that’s not the biggest problem. This kind of battle rule also meant that after Yuei Vu’s turn was over, he must go through three consecutive rounds of the opponent’s operation before he could play his cards again.

With such an absolute disadvantage, even if he is a Duel King, it is impossible, right?

By the way, in the decisive battle in the Walking the Dragons arc, Dartz fought Yugi and Kaiba alone using such Battle Royal rules.

Dare to accept a duel under such conditions, Dartz was really confident in the cards printed by himself.

“Normally, I wouldn’t make such a request. But if the opponent is the Duel King…” Kirk pushed his glasses, and the reflection of the mirror covered his eyes, “I think It’s not a big deal, is it?”

Tenma Yako frowned.

Using the rules of Battle Royal to fight against three, was already an undisguised unilateral rule suppression. It could be said that the advantage of three against one has been expanded to the maximum, and it was no longer a fair duel at all.

He felt ashamed when his subordinates made such unreasonable demands.

Even the other two Card Professors expressed dissatisfaction and were not very satisfied with the plan proposed by their companions.

Even if they beat Yuei Vu in this way, they would not feel any sense of accomplishment.

However, to everyone’s surprise, before anyone else had time to raise objections, Yuei Vu shrugged indifferently: “What you said is indeed reasonable. Well, let’s use the Battle Royal rules.”

As soon as this statement came out, everyone in the room was stunned.

Even Kirk, who proposed this proposal, was a little surprised.

He said this just to frustrate the opponent’s spirit, and he didn’t think Yuei Vu would accept.

Under such unfavorable conditions, was it really possible to win the duel?

Tenma Yako was a little surprised: “Mr. Yuei Vu… are you sure? According to the rules of Battle Royal…”

“No problem.” Yuei Vu waved his hand generously, and said casually, “After all, I was the one who said that three of them could go together. It would be petty to go back against my own words.”

The other two Card Professors originally felt that such a victory was useless, but after hearing Yuei Vu’s words, they felt that they had been greatly underestimated, and they couldn’t help feeling angry for a while.

Even if you are the Fuel King, how can you beat the three of us by yourself?

“Okay, since you’ve said that, then we don’t need to pretend.” Deschutes opened the Duel Disk and said in a deep voice, “Then come on, let the three of us experience the strength of the Duel King !”
