Yu-Gi-Oh!: Starting with an Underworld Deck, Depressing the World
As for Dr. Stein, Bastion Misawa naturally knew that he had been "working" under Jiang He since before, because he lost to Jiang He in a duel with the laboratory as the stake during the World Duel Tournament during the Light of Destruction Sartorius incident.
Furthermore, it was learned that Jiang He had provided additional funding, enabling Dr. Stein to conduct further research!
I never expected that they would develop a machine that can open up the passage between the two sides so quickly!
"Um... I don't know exactly what kind of machine it is, but does that mean we just need to wait here for Dr. Stein to open the passage and transfer us back?"
After listening to Jiang He's words, Chancellor Sheppard summarized what he had roughly understood.
"That's about it. What we need to do now is wait here and deal with the food problem and any attacks from Duel Monsters Spirit in the meantime."
Jiang He nodded, giving his affirmative answer.
Then, with a playful expression, he added, "Of course, there's another major hidden danger." Jiang He hearing this, Alexis Rhodes, Jaden Yuki, Chazz Princeton, and the others immediately realized what he was referring to! The mysterious Duel Monsters Spirit who had previously instructed Professor Cobra to cause this situation...!
"But where exactly has the other party hidden now?" Kaiser Zane Truesdale frowned and asked thoughtfully.
Although Professor Cobra has disappeared after losing the Shadow Duel, the Survival Duel devices worn on their wrists still cannot be removed.
It will absorb their stamina as soon as a duel begins.
This is quite a difficult situation for them, as they constantly need to face attacks from Duel Monsters Spirit and fight back! If the mysterious dragon Duel Monsters Spirit hiding in the shadows continues to do something, it could very well put a significant strain on their bodies and have a considerable impact on them!
This is indeed a huge hidden danger!
Meanwhile, Jiang He's brother- Atticus Rhodes, looked at him with a resentful expression. Why was it that several other people's Survival Duel devices were modified, harmless versions, but his brother-in-law didn't get the same treatment?
Was it because he and Ryo lived in the Obelisk Blue dormitory and didn't hang out together...?
"Ahem... The other Professor Cobra's plan didn't fully succeed because of our premature intrusion, and they don't seem to have fully recovered yet."
Seeing the resentful look in his silly brother-in-law's eyes, Jiang He coughed awkwardly and changed the subject to continue talking about serious business.
"After using their power to transfer us to this Duel Monsters Spirit World, we should be in a weakened state and need to find a target to possess." "And the only place here where someone can possess us and hide to secretly recover is inside this Duel Academy building."

"Then, why don't we gather all the Duel Academy students who were transferred to this Duel Monsters Spirit World together and see if they're inside?"
Upon hearing Jiang He's words, Professor Crowler immediately offered a suggestion.
"That's right, as instructors, we should also take a headcount and check on the students' condition," Vice Chancellor Bonaparte nodded in agreement.
Although his main concern was whether his son had also been transferred to the Duel Monsters Spirit World...
What's the situation now?
Soon, Chancellor Sheppard used the Duel Academy building's public address system to notify all students to go to the dueling arena.
When Jiang He group arrived, along with the golden-haired mushroom-headed professor and his group, they found that there were already quite a few people in the venue, but most of them looked sickly and weak, sitting on the ground.
There were even a few students whose wounds were being treated with healing medicine by Teacher Kawa, who had a lot of hair, using cotton swabs!
"He must have been checking the situation outside and accidentally got hurt by some Duel Monsters Spirit." "Teacher Kawa, what are the results of the student statistics?" Chancellor Sheppard asked Teacher Kawa, who had quickly applied the medicine.
"It seems that not everyone has been affected by this incident. There are about a hundred students in the Duel Academy building, but most of the other students should still be on the island in the real world."
Nurse Fontaine answered quickly.
She had already learned the details from Alexis beforehand, having been notified first.
"So, was there anyone who received the notification but didn't come here?"
After looking around at the students sitting in the middle of the venue, Jiang He raised an eyebrow and asked Teacher Kawa a question.
He had already examined the students and found that none of them carried the "malicious intent" of Yubel.
Clearly, none of them were targets for Yubel's possession.
"Keli Keli."
The Sphere Kuriboh little guy also materialized and appeared, nodding in agreement and letting out a cry.
It was as if Jiang He was asking Teacher Kawa a question.
"Those who received the notification but didn't gather here?"
Upon hearing Jiang He's words, Alexis Rhodes, Jaden Yuki, Chazz Princeton, and others, as well as the bald-headed Chancellor Sheppard and Professor Crowler on the other side, immediately showed a change in expression.
I understood the meaning behind his words.
The mastermind behind the Duel Monsters Spirit didn't possess any of these students! Meanwhile, the large-haired Nurse Fontaine, looked on with a thoughtful expression, trying to discern if there were any students he'd seen before who weren't currently present.
"Speaking of which, there really was a student Ra Yellow transferred to the Duel Academy around the same time as Rei Saotome's batch of specially recruited students. I saw him once before, but he doesn't seem to be here anymore."
At this moment, Alexis's two close friends, Jasmine and Mindy, who had been helping Nurse Fontaine, suddenly seemed to remember something and said in a daze, "I think her name is Kano Malden...?" "Marcel Bonaparte!"
Seeing that Jasmine looked like she couldn't quite remember the other person's name, the short, chubby coach suddenly shuddered and called out.
"Ah! That's right, it seems to be Marcel Bonaparte!" Jasmine and Mindy nodded repeatedly in confirmation upon hearing this!
Because that obviously very young freshman seemed so withdrawn, had no friends, and appeared quite gloomy... Requesting 0 flowers...
They only vaguely remembered it!
"Waaaaah...! How could it be that Marcel was possessed by that Duel Monsters Spirit?! There must be some misunderstanding here!" Upon hearing this, Vice Chancellor Bonaparte almost collapsed to his knees, comically pounding the ground with his short fists and crying out.
"Um... Vice Chancellor Bonaparte, does that Ra Yellow named Marcel have some special relationship with you?" The bald-headed Chancellor Sheppard and the blond-haired mushroom-headed professor were all taken aback and tried to ask Vice Chancellor Bonaparte.
"No... there's no special relationship! I just really care about every student!"
...0...
The short, chubby coach hurriedly and comically cried while waving his hands in denial.
If it were known that Marcel was his son, then his secret to getting his son into the Duel Academy would be exposed!
"..." Jiang He couldn't help but feel a twitch at the corner of his eye.
I really have something to complain about!
If only the short, chubby coach had shown a little less distress and tearful expression, he might have almost believed him!
Alexis Rhodes, along with Chazz Princeton, Bastion Misawa, and the others, couldn't help but be speechless with exasperation.
This lie is just too easy to see through.
If she/they believed it, they would feel like their intelligence had been insulted!
"Although Vice Chancellor Bonaparte doesn't acknowledge that this new student named Marcel Bonaparte is his son, if there aren't any other students who deliberately didn't show up after hearing the summons, then the person controlled by that Duel Monsters Spirit should be him."
Jiang He shook his head, directly pointing out the situation of the short, fat coach.
He remembered that in the original timeline, the person Yubel chose to temporarily possess and control in order to restore was also Vice Chancellor Bonaparte's "watermelon-headed" son...! 4.

"So, that Marcel was Vice Chancellor Bonaparte's son...?"
Upon hearing Jiang He's words, Chancellor Sheppard and Professor Crowler and the others all gave strange looks.
The focus has strayed to other things!
The short, fat coach, who had been exposed, immediately froze, and sweat poured down his face!
Then he slumped to the ground in despair, admitting it outright!
"Marcel is indeed my son. Due to family reasons, he has been very withdrawn since childhood, which is why I wanted him to make some friends at the Duel Academy and change this problem."
"I never expected this to happen. Waaaaah! 303!"
"The reason your son was targeted by that Duel Monsters Spirit is probably because he's withdrawn, gloomy, and dark-hearted." Seeing the short, fat instructor start crying again at the drop of a hat, Jiang He couldn't help but sigh and revealed some of what he knew.
"So where is Marcel hiding now?" Chazz Princeton asked, puzzled.
"Since they haven't fully recovered yet, their primary goal is definitely to incite chaos, forcing those of us who can't remove the Survival Duel device to engage in continuous duels. This will generate duel energy and stamina, which will then fuel their recovery," said Big-Nosed Little Black Axel Brodie, immediately drawing on his former mercenary analytical skills to pinpoint the crux of the matter. "And in this Duel Monsters Spirit World, there are two main factors that could cause chaos..." "Food, and security!"
Upon hearing this, Jaden Yuki, Bastion Misawa Daichi, and the young Jim all immediately thought of the same thing. "Actually, I've already checked the situation nearby, because Aunt Dorothy's shop hasn't been moved here. There's only a small warehouse storing some supplies and Duel Disk, located on the second floor of the Duel Academy building here," the big-haired Nurse Fontaine chimed in, explaining what he knew.
"There's some simple food like bread and water, and some basic medical supplies like gauze." "But that bread and water should only last a few days at most!" Hearing this, Chancellor Sheppard's expression immediately turned serious. "If something happens to that small warehouse, then the situation will be serious!"
"At that point, the students here might very well start all sorts of duels with stakes over even the smallest amount of food they're carrying!"
In contrast, the threat of Duel Monsters Spirit that may attack from the outside requires them to summon Duel Monsters to fight back, or even to duel with them, resulting in their own physical strength and the Duel Energy they generate being absorbed by the device.
On the contrary, they are relatively less of a threat!
"Then I, Chazz Princeton Thunder, will be the guardian of this important warehouse! If we encounter that Duel Monsters Spirit possessing Marcel, I'll defeat it in the Shadow Duel!"
Upon hearing Chazz Princeton immediately volunteered with a confident expression.
"..." Jiang He's expression turned strange upon seeing this.
He had a feeling that this guy was probably setting a flag, essentially handing over his head to that yandere Yubel...
He remembered that the yandere Yubel also possessed control abilities very similar to those of the old, sinister Sartorius Light of Destruction.
Although it's not as outrageous as Sartorius's use of the power of the Light of Destruction to directly Brain Control and turn them into fanatics...
However, it can also use its own dark power, formed from the energy fluctuations of the Light of Destruction absorbed by the Duel Monsters Spirit, to turn the defeated target into a "zombie" that only knows how to challenge others to duels.
Jiang He prefers to call it a "ruthless card-playing machine"...
Moreover, the targets defeated by those Brain Control by the power of the Light of Destruction will also be infected Brain Control.
Yubel's dark control power, that of a yandere old man, also has the ability to spread!
Jiang He remembered that in the original timeline, Chazz Princeton, that idiot, seemed to be the first among the more capable people on this side to give up his own life...
"Besides Chazz Princeton, let's arrange another partner for him, two people per group, taking turns guarding him every now and then."
Jiang He shook his head and added another suggestion.
"Otherwise, if something like what happened with the Light of Destruction during the Sartorius happens again, it will be troublesome."
"..." Upon hearing Chazz Princeton froze, an embarrassed expression appearing on his face.
Then, even with 0.4 busy, he wanted to refute, saying that this time such an accident would definitely not happen again.
However, he suddenly seemed to have thought of something terrifying, and quickly raised his hand to agree with Jiang He's suggestion!
Chazz Princeton was thinking was, what if he encountered some kind of mishap and got controlled by the other party again, like during the Sartorius incident with the Light of Destruction? Wouldn't he be driven to absurd depression by Jiang He again...?!
Thinking of the psychological trauma he had suffered in the past, Chazz Princeton shuddered and immediately dismissed all thoughts!
Even if he were Chazz Princeton Thunder die, he would never, ever again, fight Jiang He, even once in his life!

"Then let's arrange it this way, as Jiang He proposed."
Seeing that almost everyone agreed with Jiang He's words, Chancellor Sheppard quickly nodded and said so as well. After the groups were finally divided, it immediately became a pair of Chazz Princeton and the silly dinosaur little brother Tyranno Hassleberry, who were to guard the warehouse where the supplies were stored.
Then, every few hours, the other people would take their place.
Professor Crowler and Vice Chancellor Bonaparte were also assigned to guard the supply warehouse.
The situation is rather unique in Jiang He's case!
Since there are only 17 people who can guard the area, no matter how they are divided into pairs, there will always be one person left over. In addition, some of them are obviously weak.
