The King's expression turned grave.
Logically, all Duel Monsters data in Domino City should have been handled by Kaiba Corporation.
So when such a large-scale anomaly appeared across the entire city, everyone immediately thought to ask Kaiba Corporation whether something had malfunctioned.
Of course, Kaiba Corporation was equally baffled and conducting an emergency investigation.
When they arrived outside Kaiba Corporation, they saw a huge crowd of reporters blocking the entrance so thoroughly that no one could get through.
Unable to get a reasonable explanation anytime soon, they could only return home first.
Inside the living room of Kame Game Shop.
"Next news report: Monsters known as Duel Monsters' stereoscopic holographic projections have appeared around the world. People have fallen into panic, transportation has been disrupted, and other disasters are escalating..."
The King and the other three gathered around the television, following the events of the day.
"This is happening all over the world!?"
"So it isn't just Domino City."
While the others were expressing their shock, the footage on-screen changed.
Seto Kaiba appeared on the television.
"This incident has absolutely nothing to do with our company's systems."
"After the incident occurred, I shut down the systems and conducted a complete overhaul."
"Yet during that time, the monsters continued to appear."
"In other words, the monsters are materializing through systems outside our company."
The President immediately chose to distance himself from the incident.
That left everyone's questions unanswered.
At that moment, the King rested his chin on his hand and pondered, "Just what is going on?"
"Other Me, do you think this could be the work of some existence that interfered with your attempt to recover your memories back then?"
The King considered Yugi's question, then nodded. "Most likely. This happened just as the God Cards were being interfered with.
