Yu-Gi-Oh!, the Roar of the Weak

Chapter 68: A Thrilling Read

"Find me?"

"Yes, you're my formidable rival! That wretched bald wolf dared to ambush you, and now I haven't even been able to play my cards for you!" Nami said angrily, clenching her fists.

"I've plucked all the remaining hair from his head through a bet-based duel, but unfortunately, I can't bring him to justice."

Lunya forced a smile. "It's nothing. Thank you so much for doing so much for me."

"But I didn't come here to talk to you about that. You'll have to avenge yourself against that bald wolf. I came here for this."

"Ta-da!" Nami took out some cards from her pocket.

"So few? Only about 20 cards, enough for only half a deck."

As a seasoned card player, Di Xing could tell the number of cards at a glance.

Nami pointed a slightly guilty finger at Lunya and said, "You know my situation at home isn't very good. I went through a lot of trouble to find these cards. I think you'll like this series, but it's really not enough to build a deck. I hope you won't..."

Before Nami could finish speaking, Lunya rushed up and hugged her.

"Thank you," Lunya sincerely expressed her gratitude, never expecting that her former rival would help her so much.

"No, you're welcome. Just hurry up and build your deck so we can have a duel," Nami said, her face slightly flushed.

Di Xing wasn't interested in the pretty girl stickers; instead, he took the cards from the now-frozen Nami and started looking at them.

It turned out to be a Revolver Dragon deck; no wonder I couldn't assemble a complete set. Just then, a sound came from outside.

"You old bastard, pay me back right now, or I'll tear this whole hotel down!"

"Go ask that brat for it. I broke off all ties with that gambler a long time ago."

"Hmph, we can't find that kid anywhere. Maybe you're the one who hid him."

"Bullshit! I'd love to beat him to death!"

"Enough, Old Liu, stop putting on an act for us. We don't care whether you hid the little one or not. You have to pay back the money today."

Di Xing and the others quickly opened the window and looked out. They saw a group of thugs standing opposite the hotel owner, who was sticking his neck out and saying, "What if I don't give it to you?"

"You won't give it to me? Brothers, let's smash this lousy hotel to pieces!"

The owner quickly stood in front of his prized inn, shouting, "Let's see who dares!"

The thug sneered, "What wouldn't the Leppard family dare to do?"

"Officer Ming will not let you get away with this."

"Him? He's in big trouble soon too. The Wolf family holds a grudge against him, and he might not even be around tomorrow."

The gang leader fell silent, waved his hand, and his henchmen were about to go upstairs when Di Xing leaped from his room on the second floor, landing gracefully beneath him. Yang Yun, who had been cushioning his fall, thought, "In the end, I bore the brunt of everything."

"You bunch of thugs, if you're so tough, don't bully the old folks. I'll be your opponent!" Di Xing said righteously. Of course, he wasn't planning on hand-to-hand combat. He wasn't Crab Brother, and he didn't know how to use the Natural Fist. He saw that the thug leader was also carrying a Duel Disk, so he showed off his own Duel Disk. "Dare to duel with me?"

"Heh, you dare to challenge me? Well then, I, Erhu, will teach you a lesson today."

"duel"

The duel began, with Di Xing attacking from behind.

"My turn! I summon this super-powerful monster! Come forth, Enhanced Gargoyle!"

"Wow, that's amazing, bro!"

"It's actually a powerful monster with a four-star attack power of 1600 points?"

"As expected of the eldest brother, the eldest brother is mighty!"

"I'm ending my turn, how about that? Scared you? Holy crap, you cried?"

Di Xing was moved to tears. He had finally encountered such a classic plot twist. Heaven knows how long he had waited for these standard scenes in other novels! Damn it, he could fill the board in one turn even when he encountered a robber, but now he had finally encountered a plain axe king. He could finally show off properly!

The thug continued, "Crying won't do you any good. Blame it on you for actually trying to be a hero. It's too late to regret it now. But since you cry so much, I might go easy on you later, hahaha."

Di Xing wiped away her tears, which she felt were pathetic, and said thank you.

"My turn, activate the Spell Card 'Neighborhood Grass Cut'."

So 15 skeletons entered the cemetery.

"I summon the Bone King"

White Bone King's attack power

"Holy crap, that's attack power!" The thugs were all stunned.

"The Bone King Attacks"

Erhu was sent flying by the blow, embedding himself in the hole in the nearby wall where the soft, sticky material had been used to pull out the iron block the night before.

Di Xing breathed a sigh of relief. That felt great!

The thugs were stunned, terrified by the White Bone King. At this moment, a particularly strong man walked out from behind the crowd and pulled Erhu out of the wall with one hand. "Who bullied my brother?"

A thug stepped out from the crowd, pointing at something and stammering, "B-B-Brother, this, this, this..."

He actually wanted to say that this kid was no ordinary person and that his older brother shouldn't mess with him, but he was too shocked to utter a complete sentence. So the big guy looked at Di Xing and said, "My name is Long Yi. Are you the one who bullied my brother? I'll avenge him. Let's duel!"

Still Di Hou attacked

"My turn! Come on, Axe-wielding monster! This is an extremely rare monster!"

Wow, that's the Axe King himself! No wonder it's a UR card, its aura is just too strong.

"See? You get it now? I'm going to be 1000% stronger than you. I'll change one more card and end this turn."

A thousand riders! ?? But they are indeed stronger than his underlings, and they even know how to play the game.

"On my turn, I activate Hand Elimination, sending all cards in both players' hands to the graveyard. I then draw the same number of cards. Next, I Normal Summon Singing Zombie and activate its second effect, sending Bone King to the graveyard from Kazu. Singing Zombie gains one star. Then, I add Bone Prince and Bone Lord to my hand, discard Bone Prince, and its effect activates, sending Bone Couple to the graveyard."

"Activate the effect of Singing Zombies again, send the Bone Prince from your hand to the graveyard, and the Bone Couple also go to the graveyard. Discard the Bone Lord from your hand. There are 10 Bone in the graveyard, so give 10 cards. If there is a Bone Prince, give 1 more cards. There are now 19 Bone in the graveyard. Activate Monster Resurrection to revive the Bone King. Exclude the Horse-Headed Ghost to revive the Bone Lady."

"What attack power?!" Long Yi was so shocked that his mouth dropped open, while his underlings looked like they'd already heard him say something but were constipated.

"I'm only 100% stronger than you, Jacques Basen," Di Xing said with a smile. "The Bone King attacks the Axe King."

"I activate the invincible explosive armor!"

"With Lady White Bone present, there's no way to compete."

"Boom!"

Long Yi was also sent flying, his enormous head embedded once again in the hole.

Ah, that feels so good!

Di Xing clapped his hands, gave the little karaomis a friendly smile, and then uttered a single word: "Get lost."

The thugs immediately fled in a panic. I have to say, it's really satisfying to act out this kind of wish-fulfillment plot.
