Who Let Him Play Yu-Gi-Oh! novel Chapter 334

Chapter 334: Chapter 333: The Academy’s Kaiser (Bonus)

"Seriously, this is supposed to be a major Doma base, and this is all they had?"

Kira walked out of the dimly lit base, stepping back into the sunlight as he counted the loot he’d confiscated from this raid.

To be honest, he wasn’t too impressed.

It wasn’t that there weren’t any rare cards, but most of the rare cards these people had were the kind that were considered powerful and valuable among the local natives, but to him, they were pretty much useless.

Take, for example, the "Chainsaw Insect"—a four-star monster with an impressive 2400 attack points, but its minor drawback was that whenever it battled, the opponent drew a card.

Well, at least it could fetch a good price.

With this, the Doma forces stationed here in Domino City were basically wiped out.

"But... is this really okay?" Jaden sounded a bit worried.

He’d been so caught up in the duel just now that he hadn’t thought much of it, but now that it was over and he recalled the intel they’d overheard, he couldn’t help but feel uneasy.

"They just said something about headquarters having already arrived in Duel City or something, right?" Jaden glanced at Kira. "Sounds like some pretty tough people are coming?"

He was reminded of Shell—one of the New Doma Three Swordsmen. Back then, it took both of them together to defeat him.

If it was someone like that, the threat level would be on a whole different scale compared to the grunts they’d just faced.

"Who knows, maybe." Kira shrugged. "Anyway, we’ve done what we could for now. Whatever comes next, we’ll deal with it as it comes. How’s your puzzle card collection?"

"Oh."

Jaden fished out a handful of puzzle cards from his back pocket.

"Four pieces," he said. "Still missing two."

"Hah, I’ve already got five." Kira pulled out five pieces.

This raid on New Doma not only cleared out the threat and grabbed some cards, but both of them also won quite a few puzzle cards. After all, there were only a handful of qualified duelists in such a huge base; the rest of the cannon fodder didn’t even have puzzle cards.

"All right, time to find the last opponent," Kira waved his hand and smiled. "See you at the finals—though we’d better hurry. It’d be a joke if we didn’t even qualify for the playoffs in the end."

The two bumped fists and then split up.

"So it’s just the last match left..."

Kira wandered the streets, glancing around.

Honestly, with duelists scattered throughout such a large city, it wasn’t that easy to bump into one.

Especially since most duelists made an effort to hide themselves. If you walked around Duel City during the tournament blatantly wearing a duel disk, it was like declaring yourself open prey. Anyone could instantly tell if you were a participant and decide whether to challenge you.

But if you hid and observed from the shadows, you became the hunter. You could watch for easy prey to make your move—or keep hiding if you thought you’d lose against someone.

So, Kira and Jaden managing to farm five puzzle cards each at a duelist hotspot was already pretty fast. For others, just wandering the streets wasn’t likely to net them opponents quickly.

Not to mention, 90% of duelists—even if they got the chance—would have a hard time winning all their matches. The higher-ranked and more famous the duelist, the more likely they were to face opponents just as strong or even stronger. Others who recognized them would avoid them entirely.

So even though it seemed like he only needed one more win, finding that last opponent might not be so easy.

After walking down another street without seeing any duelists, Kira realized he was getting a bit hungry after a morning’s activity, so he decided to grab a bite to eat.

And as luck would have it, just as he pushed open the door to a restaurant, he bumped right into someone.

It was Duel Academy’s Kaiser, Zane Truesdale.

Both of them froze in surprise.

Their eyes met—yes, it was the right person.

Half a second later, Kira smiled. "What a coincidence. You here for lunch too?"

"Yeah." Zane smiled and casually asked, "How many pieces do you have?"

"Five."

Kira showed his puzzle cards.

"Missing just one."

"What a coincidence."

Zane smiled as well, pulling out his own pile.
