I Play Yu-Gi-Oh! Card Game

Two months after Jack's trip to the Nazca Ruins ended.

The Dark Signers had been defeated, and other forces seemed to have temporarily ceased their activities.

Yusei, Crow, and Jack have to worry about their livelihoods while stepping up their training every day to improve their strength. Crow sometimes went out to work as a courier, and Yusei occasionally took on some technical work in mechanical repairs.

As for Jack…

…he sometimes went to a coffee shop.

Jack was quite picky about coffee, and he always went to the same coffee shop.

However, every time he went out, his old colleague from the Public Security Bureau, Sagiri Fukage, always appeared at the right time.

Although Jack had repeatedly reminded her that he was no longer the Duel King and had no connection with the Public Security Bureau, Sagiri still could not change the habit of respectfully calling him "Atlas-sama".

Then, from some point on, a reporter named Carly Nagisa also joined in, and she kept showing her presence around Jack every other day.

According to Jack, this was a reporter he met when he abdicated from the position of Duel King. After accepting her interview, they had a good chat, and he even let her stay overnight at his home.

But don't get me wrong, it was really just "stay overnight".

At that time, Jack was extremely yearning for the new realm of duels he had seen. He talked about his ideals and ambitions all night, saying how he would become stronger, reach the top of the world with his own strength, and win the real Duel King throne…

By the end, the reporter was so sleepy that she fell asleep.

There was also the coffee shop maid Stephanie, who would hide behind Jack and peek whenever he visited. She would blush from time to time, but she was timid and never dared to approach him to talk.

Until one day, she suddenly realized that there were two "rivals" around Jack. The possessive desire instantly overwhelmed the shyness of the little girl, so she mustered up the courage to join Jack's permanent harem trio.

It's a pity that the overturned king seemed to be unimpressed by the enthusiasm of the girls. Jack, who was originally full of thoughts about playing cards, now thinks about playing cards without distraction after seeing a higher level.

Thousands of words are gathered into that famous line–

–Women are a hindrance, I am a man who wants to become a world champion.JPG

Izayoi Aki and the twins both enrolled in the Duel Academy for further study. Yuei Vu estimated that the academy they enrolled in might be a branch of the academy he attended, because they also had a professor who used the "Ancient Gear" deck, and it was said that this deck was a rare card handed down from generation to generation in the academy.

Yusei had been to that school once, and as a backstage spirit, Yuei Vu also took the opportunity to observe it. However, he found that there seemed to be no familiar figures left in the academy, including the leadership, teachers, and students.

After Sister Aki untied her knot, she reconciled with her parents. Later, at Yuei Vu's suggestion, Yusei also contacted Izayoi's family and inquired about Izayoi Sakura in a roundabout way.

Later, he learned that Sakura might be Aki's aunt, that was, the sister of her father Izayoi Hideo.

But it was said that she had been developing abroad and had not had much contact with Aki and was not familiar with him.

After getting this news, Yuei Vu frowned and pondered for a long time.

He felt more and more strange.

But it's not just now that he felt strange, he had always had this feeling since he came to this era.

Not only did the news of legendary duelists like himself and Yugi Kaiba disappear completely, but even the students of the Duel Academy of the GX generation had no news. It was really strange.

He felt that there was a hazy black fog covering the sky of this era, obscuring a huge truth, making it impossible for him to distinguish what happened between the fault lines of the two eras.

But he felt that no matter what it was, it might be related to Nightshroud who had invaded this era, or to "Iliaster" led by Z-ONE.

But speaking of "Iliaster", it should be soon before they take action.

Late at night, Ushio Tetsu drove the new generation of D-Wheel equipped by the Public Security Bureau on the city's highways to perform routine patrol operations.

These days, their daily work as guards had become more and more arduous. The number of police patrolling every night had increased several times, and the coverage area had also increased significantly compared to the past.

Because there was a D-Wheeler named "Ghost" appeared in the city.

The Ghost only appeared late at night and targeted D-Wheelers speeding on the night road. He would attack in a duel, and the D-Wheelers he defeated seemed to be subjected to physical impacts beyond the scope of stereoscopic images, and eventually, all of them would roll over.

So far, several D-Wheelers have been sent to the hospital.

In the Neo Domino, which was now under reconstruction, the D-Wheel was regarded as a symbol of freedom. But the appearance of this ghost had made many people afraid, and they even dared not drive the D-Wheel at night.

The Public Security Bureau attached great importance to this matter and sent a large number of police forces to perform night patrols in an attempt to capture The Ghost.

For this matter, Ushio Tetsu had not slept for many days.

But he didn't mind working overtime.

One was because he also hoped to capture the guy called Ghost as soon as possible to maintain order in the city, and the other was because he had some sleep problems recently.

A few months ago, he had this problem after being rescued by the Signers from the old Momentum Research Institute.

He always had nightmares at night. The contents of his dreams were all kinds of strange, but most of them involved various kinds of dragons. He just couldn't remember the specific contents after waking up, and the appearance of the dragon in his dream was also hazy and blurred.

But every night when he woke up, he felt as if his body had fallen into an ice cave, and his whole body was dominated by a kind of fear from the heart.

At the same time, he remembered something.

About the night before the Zero Reverse sixteen years ago, his old classmate Murakami called him to surrender.

He was surprised at how he could forget such an important thing, until he returned from the old Momentum Research Institute recently, and these memories gradually awakened.

He immediately tried to find the blank card that Murakami entrusted to him, but found that he couldn't find it anywhere. He racked his brains, but couldn't remember where he put the card sixteen years ago.

These things made him a little anxious. He went home later and later every day after getting off work, and almost became a model worker of the new Public Security Bureau. But the truth was, he just didn't want to go back to face his empty house. Those memories and nightmares could drive him crazy.

In some ways, he was quite grateful to this bastard called "Ghost" for keeping him busy every night.

In this way, he could temporarily put those weird things behind him.

But it seemed that this mission was about to end.

Because tonight, he found the shadow of the guy called "Ghost" on his patrol route.

Ushio immediately perked up. The excitement of Riding Duel accelerated the secretion of adrenaline, and the cold wind at night made him extremely sober.

"Stinky boy, you are unlucky to be hit by your uncle Ushio. You can't run away this time." Ushio curled his lips and accelerated to catch up with the shadow riding the D-Wheel.

"The Field Spell ‘Speed World 2' is activated!"
