Who Let Him Play Yu-Gi-Oh! novel Chapter 1147

Chapter 1147: Chapter 1147: I Knew Your Father

Yusei was caught off guard and looked at "Goodwin" in surprise, not expecting such a question.

"Years ago, Dr. Fudo developed the ’Ener-D’," Kira began slowly. "The key to it was a mediating particle called the ’Yusei Particle.’ (TL: English is Planetary Particle but in literal meaning in JP is Yusei Project. So I combined it to Yusei Particle for the sake of context.)

Dr. Fudo discovered this particle had unique properties; it could combine with all other elementary particles and act as a mediator between them.

Later, he named his son after this particle."

Kira gave Yusei a meaningful look.

"You understand what he meant by this, don’t you?"

Yusei’s heart shook. "Yusei Particle... Yusei..."

Being a techhead, having once hand-built a Ener-D from scrap, he was familiar with the theory—he knew about the Yusei Particle, and had thought about the coincidence with his own name.

But nobody had ever said it out loud before, so he hadn’t dwelled on it.

But now...

"Yes, I think you understand," Kira said. "Your father’s hope was that you would become like the Yusei Particle.

Someone who could build connections between people, inspire mutual understanding, foster real bonds—what you call ’kizuna.’

The power of bonds can transcend all barriers and bring hope."

This, too, was the main theme of Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D’s—and the main reason Yusei kept getting stronger and more "overpowered" as the plot progressed.

If you put it in fantastical terms, "kizuna"—the power of bonds—is Yusei’s "Will."

The power of friendship and trust let him break through limits, draw miracle cards, and even shatter Z-one’s perception to create a brand-new future unknown to all timelines.

This path was Yusei’s origin. With Kira’s help pointing this out, his own evolution could accelerate.

"But..." Yusei said, "If there had been no Ener-D to begin with—"

Jack, who’d kept silent, suddenly snapped and grabbed Yusei by his collar: "How long are you going to show this pathetic side, Yusei!?"

Yusei: "Jack..."

He’d just beaten Jack at the Fortune Cup, regaining the King title. Though childhood friends, the tension had them at odds, and Jack hadn’t wanted to talk to him. But this, he couldn’t hold back.

"Listen up, Yusei—I, and everyone else, never once blamed you, or your father! My life—Jack Atlas’ life—is in my own hands! Every road I walk is one I cut for myself! If I have a destiny, it’s to surpass you and become the greatest King—nothing more!

So don’t act like this. Stand tall, like my worthy rival, Yusei! No point dwelling in the past—our only goal is the future, and that’s enough!"

Yusei’s heart trembled, moved. "Jack..."

Jack’s words were rough and almost provocative, but Yusei knew this was his comrade’s way of comforting him.

Kira added: "The Ener-D’s creation was inevitable for humanity, Yusei Fudo.

Whether Synchro Summoning, or the Engine itself—even without them, humanity’s progress would have produced other advances. If we can’t face the future rightly, it’ll always fall into darkness, no matter what."
