Chương 657: Chapter 657 The League's Clash of the Century
Duel Academy.
"My turn—draw!"
"I activate 'Neo-Spacian Aqua Dolphin'! Discard 1 card, select a monster in your opponent's hand; if I control a monster with higher ATK, destroy that monster and deal 500 damage!" 1
"Aqua Dolphin isn't once per turn. I discard another card and destroy another monster in your hand!" 1
"I contact fuse Aqua Dolphin with Elemental HERO Neos—Form Change! Elemental HERO Marine Neos!"
"Marine Neos's effect: once per turn, destroy 1 random card in your opponent's hand." 1
"…Excellent! That means you're out of cards, Misawa!"
Misawa: "…"
After a "fun" casual duel, Misawa looked skyward and exhaled.
He'd been working himself to the bone—living in the lab, developing new cards and tactics. He believed he'd improved greatly; compared to last year he was a new person. Maybe not on the absurd outlier level of Kira, but among students he should be top tier.
Then Jaden shattered his dreams without mercy.
And judging by observation, Jaden didn't even study, let alone do R&D.
But the guy's luck shone like a mirror—without working, one day a bunch of aliens fell from the sky: "Kid, your bones are amazing—perfect to become the Light—uh, the Darkness. Hop in and help us save the world!" 1
So Jaden got a new deck, with that signature hand-shredding cursed dolphin like breathing.
Yep, dropped from the heavens.
Misawa looked to the sky.
Not salty. Not salty at all. 1
"Misawa? Misawa?"
Jaden waved a hand before him.
Misawa snapped back.
"Hm? Oh… I'm fine," he said. "In any case, this duel gave me good data… but really—aliens."
He glanced at Jaden's deck and couldn't help sighing.
"Incredible."
"Right?" Jaden beamed, struck his trademark pose.
"Victory! That was a fun duel!"
Misawa: "…"
Fun?
Maybe. The Dolphin certainly had fun.
"Big bro!"
Syrus rushed in from outside, out of breath, clutching a flyer.
"What's the rush, Sy?"
"Big brother—my big brother!"
Syrus unfurled the crumpled flyer. It was a pro league poster, with everyone's familiar Kaiser Zane Truesdale at center, his iconic Cyber Dragon looming.
"Oh, Kaiser photographs well."
Jaden grinned.
"But he's in black now—feels weird."
Zane had graduated and joined the pro league, trading his Obelisk Blue tails for a black coat—his aura quite different from his academy days.
"Yeah, but it suits him," Misawa said.
