Yu-Gi-Oh!: Starting with an Underworld Deck, Depressing the World
"The order in which both sides field their players has been determined!"
Soon, after Jiang He and the others had Bastion Misawa transmit the information via the computer he brought, they succeeded.
The host with the pompadour hairstyle on the central stage of the stadium in the distance also immediately shouted out with great enthusiasm.
"The order of appearance for the Duel Academy Team GX is: Hell Kaiser Zane Truesdale, a professional duelist with a 20-win streak, and Jaden Yuki from the Duel Academy."
And the ultimate winner of the previous Fortune Cup World Duel Tournament, Prince Jiang He!
As the host spoke, images of Jiang He and his two companions quickly appeared in sequence on the three upper squares of the oval light screen in the center of the venue.
"And the Team Unicorn's order of appearance is Andre, the strongest ace genius professional duelist with a record of 102 consecutive wins in the Western Kingdom's extra professional dueling world."
Alongside Bre o, a professional duelist known as a genius memory analyst, and the captain of Team Unicorn, a top professional duelist with the title of Strategic Duelist, let's...
As the host with the pompadour hairstyle finished speaking...
Below the oval light screen in the center of the stadium, three avatars quickly appeared in the three squares representing the Team Unicorn.
At the front of the line was a young figure with purplish-red hair and a single horn sticking up at the front; the second was a blond man with a center parting; and the third was a middle-aged man with black hair, holding a delicate pinky finger.
"Huh?! A professional duelist with a 102-win streak...?!"
Upon hearing the host's words, Jaden Yuki and the Chazz Princeton were immediately stunned and stared wide-eyed!
This outrageous data wasn't in the information Aster had collected before!
They only mentioned their winning streak!
Although it wasn't the more prestigious professional dueling scene in New Domino City, but rather a "wild professional duel" taking place in the Western Kingdom...
But this ridiculous winning streak is already quite astonishing!
Even Alexis Rhodes, Akiza Izinski, and Bastion Misawa all showed expressions of surprise!
Jiang He, however, was not particularly surprised.
While this record seems impressive, it pales in comparison to the current undefeated streak in orthodox professional duels between Kaiser Zane Truesdale and that little gray-haired Aster Phoenix.
Actually, it wasn't exaggerated by much.
However, it must be said that Andre of the Team Unicorn is indeed quite strong.
Even compared to Yusei Fudo hasn't yet gained new power and is still so upright and expressionless, he might be a bit stronger!
"Chi!!"
Just then, the sound of a D-Wheel rang out, and in the blink of an eye, a jet-black D-Wheel sped out from inside the arena and finally stopped in the waiting area of the dueling track in the distance!
Sitting up there is none other than Kaiser Zane Truesdale!
"Here he appears! First up is Hell Kaiser Zane Truesdale from the Duel Academy Team GX, along with his D-Wheel Hell Kaiser!"
"Whoa!!"
As the host introduced the man with the pompadour hairstyle, a burst of excited cheers immediately rang out from the large audience surrounding the venue!
As a professional duelist who has achieved a 30-fight winning streak in the professional dueling world of New Domino City, Kaiser Zane Truesdale can almost be considered to be fighting on home turf here.
However, soon after, another blue and white D-Wheel vehicle with a spiral unicorn decoration at the front sped out from the other side and eventually stopped not far away!
Above them sat a young figure with purplish-red hair, wearing a dark blue unicorn helmet, and a confident smile on his face!
"Hell Kaiser Zane Truesdale, I've heard of you. A former top graduate of the Duel Academy, a power-overwhelming professional duelist, you're a rather formidable opponent."
When Andre appeared, he immediately greeted Kaiser Zane Truesdale with a smile.
"However, one thing is certain: we will be the ones to win this duel!"
"Because your intelligence, and the order in which you selected your personnel, were almost entirely within our anticipated tactics!"
"What?!"
Upon hearing this, Kaiser Zane Truesdale frowned slightly, his expression shifting slightly.
But before he could say anything, the host with the pompadour hairstyle on the stage in the distance announced the start of the duel!

"Alright, allow me to state the rules: this 'WRGP' World Duel Tournament will adopt a normal elimination team relay battle format!"
The host with the pompadour hairstyle quickly and passionately announced into the microphone.
"In other words, even if the first duelist is defeated, all of his power on the field will still be retained."
The second teammate to fight can then inherit and use it! This is the essence of team battles that embody bonds!
"Now, the duel begins! Both of you, please activate the special Field Spell developed specifically for normal duels, [Speed World - New Type]!"
As the host with the pompadour hairstyle finished speaking...
Kaiser Zane Truesdale and Andre from the Team Unicorn also immediately pressed the buttons on their respective D-Wheel!
"Duel mode activated, entering autopilot mode, activating the Field Spell [Speed World - New Type]!"
"Duel mode activated! Field Spell activated! [Speed World - New Type]!"
"Buzz!!"
Almost simultaneously with the electronic sound emanating from the D-Wheel, a shockwave of gray energy emanated from the two individuals 'D-Wheel and rapidly spread outwards!
In the blink of an eye, it enveloped the entire massive dueling track like a protective shield!
Jiang He immediately recognized the difference between this [Speed World - New Type] and the [Speed World] Field Spell used in Turbo Duel.
At least the spreading energy shield changed from its original purple color to a nearly negligible gray!
"Duel!"
"Duel!"
The next second, as Kaiser Zane Truesdale and Andre spoke at the same time, the D-Wheel they were driving sped out of the waiting area!
After each player drew five starting cards from their D-Wheel Duel Disk deck, the same [4000LP] appeared next to them!
"I'll accept the first attack, draw a card!"
After dashing out, Andre immediately smiled confidently and deliberately seized the first move (affb), drawing a card from his own D-Wheel Duel Disk!
Then he slapped the card he had just drawn onto his own Duel Disk!
"I summon the Tuner Monster [Unicorn Familiar] in Defense Position!"
"Rua!!"
As a vortex of blue light appeared, a small, blue, one-horned demonic monster emerged from it!
With a strange cry, it appeared in a defensive stance in front of Andre on the field, with the shadows of horizontally placed monster cards below it flying along!

"Next, activate the special effect of this Level 3 monster in your hand, [Unicorn], and at the cost of banishing one Spell Card from your hand, you can Special Summon it!"
As Andre spoke, he immediately revealed two cards from his remaining five cards!
"I choose to banish this unused Spell Card from my hand!"
"Appear, [Unicorn]!"
"Moo!!"
As a vortex of blue light shone again, a massive, monstrous bull-shaped creature with an extremely long single horn emerged from it!
It appeared on the field in front of the opponent, bellowing and adopting a defensive posture!

"A Level 2 Tuner monster and a Level 3 Normal monster... that professional duelist named Andre, he's really going to Synchro Summon right off the bat!"
Seeing the two monsters that the opponent summoned in an instant, Bastion Misawa couldn't help but guess aloud!
Even Jaden Yuki and Chazz Princeton, among others, showed similar expressions.
Jiang He, however, revealed a playful expression in response.
He guessed that Andre, the one-horned guy with purplish-red hair, probably wouldn't perform Synchro Summon!
The next second, very quickly, they could see the dueling arena track in the distance...
After summoning two monsters to defend, Andre showed no intention of Synchro Summoning and simply smirked as he placed his remaining three cards onto his D-Wheel Duel Disk!
"Next, I'll lay three more cards in ambush! End of turn!"
With a series of "thump-thump" sounds, three huge hidden cards appeared one after another on the field in front of the opponent's D-Wheel!
Then the round ended abruptly!
"Oh my god! The genius ace duelist Andre has failed to summon his ace Synchro Monster despite having the ability to perform Synchro Summon!"
At the same time, on the stage in the distance, the host with the pompadour hairstyle immediately spoke up in a surprised tone, giving a loud commentary!
"Is there some special tactic involved?"
"What?! They didn't even perform Synchro Summon...!"
Upon seeing this from the dark D-Wheel behind, Kaiser Zane Truesdale also revealed a look of surprise and doubt!
Even in the rest area, Jaden Yuki, Chazz Princeton, Aster Phoenix, and the others all looked utterly astonished!
Only Jiang He's face showed an expression of "I knew it!"
He remembered that in the original playthrough, the opponent used a similar tactic against Jack Atlas, who also used a power-type deck and was known for his frequent mishaps!

"It's your turn, Hell Kaiser Zane Truesdale!"
Soon, on the dueling arena track in the distance, Andre confidently smiled and spoke to Kaiser Zane Truesdale behind him on the D-Wheel.
"Hmph, so you prepared a special ambush to lure me into attacking! But whatever, I'll crush you all with a combination of strength and skill!"
Upon hearing this, Kaiser Zane Truesdale snorted coldly and immediately frowned as he drew a card from his own D-Wheel Duel Disk!
"Then it's my turn, draw a card!"
