Who Let Him Play Yu-Gi-Oh! novel Chapter 1171

Chapter 1171: Chapter 1171 – The So-Called King

Z-ONE directly named Paradox, but Kira wasn’t surprised.

He’d guessed from the start that everything he did might be under Z-ONE’s surveillance.

Within the world of 5D’s, Z-ONE was the mastermind behind the entire plot. Rudger was consumed by the evil god’s power; Yusei and the others grew up in Satellite; the Signers defeated the Dark Signers and then formed Team 5D’s...

The entire storyline flowed within Z-ONE’s grasp.

Just as Z-ONE himself claimed in the final battle against Yusei: he was the god of this timeline. Everything and everyone’s fate danced to his will. Nothing in this dimension escaped his notice.

Kira’s bold theft of Paradox’s Duel Runner—using the enemy’s own device to barge into this dimension—had a high chance of being detected.

But Kira had considered this and didn’t care. If the enemy came to him, a direct conversation was probably even better.

He understood Z-ONE’s ultimate objective, and it was unlikely their interests conflicted directly. In fact, talking face to face could help him grasp the situation and maybe even cooperate.

It was just a pity the other side never reached out. Of Z-ONE’s subordinates, even Primo, one of the Three Pure Nobles, hadn’t been interested in real conversation—just yelled about anomalies and started fighting.

From what Kira could tell, the Three Pure Nobles didn’t even have the access to communicate with Z-ONE yet. Their memories were fragmented; all they’d been implanted with were their missions.

In the anime, the three never recognized Antinomy, who was supposed to be on their side. Most of Z-ONE’s commands reached them as oracles rather than direct orders, showing just how limited their authority was.

So being able to meet the mastermind himself at this moment was fortunate.

"Paradox—is he your companion too?"

Standing before Z-ONE, Kira dropped all pretense. A ripple of magic washed over him as he resumed his true appearance.

"I’m from another dimension. Your companion may have lost his way and wandered into my world. We had a bit of a conflict, but he’s fine—currently in my world.

I came here to prevent the destruction of two worlds."

Z-ONE peered long and hard at him, then spoke slowly.

"Yes, I know."

Of course. Z-ONE knew.

Again, Kira wasn’t surprised. Z-ONE’s technology transcended space-time; he was aware of everything in this dimension.

After a moment, Z-ONE exhaled softly.

"So—your dimension has already produced a King?"

"A King...?" Kira hesitated.

He sensed Z-ONE was talking about him—but he’d never revealed his identity. So how could Z-ONE know? Did he know that Kira was a Duel King from another world?
