Yu-Gi-Oh!: Starting with an Underworld Deck, Bringing Depression to the World, Part 665
Even if you don't believe in the existence of the Duel Monsters Scripture, you should at least have heard of it!
"It's that ghostly figure with the blue and white bean sprout hair floating next to you."
Jaden Yuki immediately gestured towards the lobster-headed young man Yuma Tsukumo, next to him and said...
"Huh?! Could it be that even you Jaden seniors can see Astral?!"
Upon seeing Jaden Yuki's gesture, the young man with the lobster-shaped haircut Yuma Tsukumo, exclaimed in shock.
"To be precise, including me, there are probably four people who can see this."
Jiang He shook his head and said directly.
"Uh, that's Astral, the astral being who suddenly merged with me one day before."
Upon hearing this, Yuma Tsukumo quickly explained the situation.
He then picked up the golden pendant hanging in front of him.
"It's currently inside this Emperor's Key."

"According to Astral himself, he seems to be an envoy from the Astral World with a mission, but when he was transported to Heartland City through the Emperor's Key left behind by my father..."
It possessed me after colliding with me, which also caused its power and memories to be scattered! It turned into some No-series numbered Darkness Card."
As Yuma Tsukumo picked up the golden triangular dart-shaped pendant hanging in front of him, he continued to explain the origin of the Astral!
"The Astral World...? Does such a realm exist in the world of Duel Monsters Spirit?"
Upon hearing this, Bastion Misawa asked with some confusion.
During the Yubel incident, he, Jiang He, and many others, along with a number of people from the Duel Academy, were teleported to a certain area in the Duel Monsters Spirit World.
I encountered many Dark Duel Monsters Spirit from the Dark World, as well as some Duel Monsters Spirit from other realms.
But within that realm, there seems to have never been any mention of a place called the "Astral World".
This prompted Bastion Misawa to look in Jiang He's direction inquiring.
Even those around him, including Jaden Yuki, Chazz Princeton, Jack Atlas, and others who were equally bewildered, as well as Alexis Rhodes and Aki Akiza Izinski sitting next to Jiang He, couldn't help but look at him.
To talk about understanding the Duel Monsters Spirit World...
Clearly, one guy is the most qualified to speak on this matter.
Putting aside Jiang He's knowledge of the Duel Monsters Spirit World, it seems he already had some understanding of it.
The mere existence of the King of the Netherworld's Mark, signifying his selection by the God of the Underworld, was enough for him to know many things they did not.
Jiang He didn't keep anyone in suspense about this.
He directly revealed some of what he knew, saying, "If what I know is correct, this Astral World should be one of the two special branch spaces of the Underworld in the Duel Monsters Spirit World..."
"Originally, the souls of some powerful duelists would enter the Underworld after death and transform into a form similar to the Duel Monsters Spirit."
"And those souls that are more powerful and pure, if they wish, may be able to ascend to a special place in the Underworld called the Astral World."
Jiang He stuffed a small shrimp ball into his mouth and said, his mouth bulging.
According to what he knew, the Underworld in the Duel Monsters Spirit World was the most unique extradimensional space in the entire Duel Monsters Spirit World.
It is also the most expansive area in the Duel Monsters Spirit World.
It's even the place with the most various forces and gods...
Those Egyptian God Cards, as well as the previous King of the Netherworld and the Earthbound Immortal, all came from that place.
"It's actually a special space within the Underworld..."
Upon hearing Jiang He's words, everyone, including Alexis Rhodes, Akiza Izinski, and the others, as well as Jaden Yuki Chazz Princeton, Bastion Misawa, and the others sitting on the soft cloth in the distance opposite, couldn't help but show a surprised expression!
There was one thing Jiang He didn't say, but they could guess at some of it.
Since some of the more sacred souls in the Underworld can travel to the Astral World, a special branch of the Underworld...
Therefore, it's highly likely that there's a corresponding alternate realm or something similar...!
As for the young man with the lobster-like hair, Yuma Tsukumo, who was the person involved in the possession of the Astral, he was stunned and stared wide-eyed!
My worldview has been completely shattered!
There's even Underworld, and Duel Monsters Spirit World...?!
"Based on the fragmented memories I've recovered, the Astral World should indeed be a special branch of the Underworld."
However, I will only be able to know about my specific mission, as well as other memories and powers, after I have collected enough No-series cards.
Just then, a blue and white bean sprout-shaped ghostly figure emerged from the "Emperor's Key" in front of Yuma Tsukumo and joined in.
Then he looked in the direction of Jiang He.
"I originally thought that you would have some of my scattered memories in your hands, Number Darkness Card would still exist, but it seems that you don't."
I'm sorry, I misunderstood you before.
He had previously noticed that Jiang He seemed to be able to see him as well, and assumed it was because Jiang He possessed the power of many of his NO series cards.
However, it seems that this is not the case.
Rather, this guy possesses other, far greater powers and insights...
"Uh... actually, I do have one here, it's most likely one of your Number Series Darkness Card."
Just as the Astral was thinking this, he suddenly heard Jiang He say something to him with a strange expression.
"..." Yuma Tsukumo and Astral were both dumbfounded and stunned on the spot.
"So, where is that No-series card now, senior? If we don't retrieve it soon, it could cause quite a stir!"
Yuma Tsukumo quickly realized what was happening and hurriedly asked Jiang He about the consequences.
"Those No series cards possess special power that amplifies the dark side and desires within the holder, and may even control the holder to do dark things!"
Chapter 1358 Jiang He: Let Me Show You the Dangers of the Human World [Please Subscribe]
"What?! The power and memories of that Astral, after being dispersed, formed the Number Xyz Monster Darkness Card?"
It can even affect the duelist who controls it?!
Upon hearing Yuma Tsukumo's words, Bastion Misawa, Yusei Fudo, Jack Atlas, and the others were immediately shocked!
Although they were unable to see the abilities of the Duel Monsters Spirit, the presence of the Astral, or hear the conversation between the other party and Jiang He.
However, based on the few words exchanged between Jiang He and the new student Yuma Tsukumo, one can roughly guess what the other said!
The information they gleaned from these words, in particular, shocked them!
"In other words, it's highly likely that a significant number of Darkness Card from Number Xyz Monster, Duel Monsters Spirit that can be materialized have ended up in the Duel Academy."
Would they really try to control the students of the Duel Academy...?!
Upon hearing Alexis Rhodes frowned and guessed, seemingly considering the matter.
This new student named Yuma Tsukumo and the Astral, specifically joined the Duel Academy to come here.
She could easily guess that 447 were the Number Series Darkness Card that had been scattered outside, and many of them had ended up at the Duel Academy.
If any student in the Duel Academy were to obtain a No. 1 Darkness Card, the entire Duel Academy would likely descend into chaos!
"It seems we need to find those Number Series Darkness Card before causing too much chaos!"
Akiza Izinski was standing next to him, also immediately thought of this and said something.
As for the Number Xyz Monster Darkness Card in Jiang He's hand, she was also a little curious about when he had obtained it, given that he had been with them almost the entire time.
But he wasn't worried at all about it affecting Jiang He.
After all, with all the powers Jiang He possessed that were chosen by Kami, let alone that NO series Xyz Monster Darkness Card,
Even before Astral power was fully dispersed, it's likely that it wouldn't be able to affect or control him at all...
Everyone else couldn't help but look at Jiang He.
I want to see what that Number Series Darkness Card that Jiang He mentioned earlier, which hasn't been taken back by Astral and Yuma Tsukumo, looks like!
Jiang He gestured to Camula, who was waiting nearby.
He had his vampire maid bring out the [No. 25·Heavy-Duty Optical Camera·Focus Power] that she had found.
"The power of the No-Monster on this card... seems to have been sealed away beforehand?!"
Upon seeing the jet-black Xyz Monster Card that Camula had taken out, Astral being floating beside Yuma Tsukumo on the soft cloth in the distance opposite, immediately exclaimed in shock as if he had discovered something!
Even after he retrieves the No series cards, because the other party has already developed its own will, he can only borrow, or rather control, the power of these Number Series Darkness Card.
It is not yet possible to completely Polymerization into oneself!
I never imagined that someone could seal away this Duel Monsters Spirit, [No. 25 Heavy-Duty Optical Camera - Focus Power], so easily!
"The power of the Xyz Monster Duel Monsters Spirit on this card initially had a slight effect on Camula, but it wasn't a big problem."
Jiang He also spoke directly to the blue and white bean sprout phantom, and the Astral said with a sigh.
"While returning it to you directly now wouldn't be a problem, sealing this card last night took a considerable amount of effort and was extremely taxing!"
As he spoke, Jiang He suddenly looked extremely exhausted, and even his face turned pale!
It was as if he had really expended a great deal of energy!
Seeing this, the vampire maid Camula behind them couldn't help but have a strange expression on her face!
If she hadn't seen the brat with her own eyes, last night it would have just been a moment of darkness before her eyes returned to normal.
She almost believed him if he had casually sealed away the Duel Monsters Spirit of the Xyz Monster [No. 25 Heavy Camera - Focus Power]!
Meanwhile, Tenjouin Asuka and Akiza Izinski, as well as Jaden Yuki and Chazz Princeton across the Alexis Rhodes, all looked on with strange expressions!
Although neither she nor they were eyewitnesses
But given their familiarity with each other's personalities and understanding of each other's abilities, they simply couldn't believe it.
Jiang He would need to expend a huge amount of energy to seal this No. series Xyz Monster Duel Monsters Spirit...
Only the young man, Yuma Tsukumo, with his lobster head on the soft cloth opposite, and the Astral of the world, remained.
And the green-haired girl Tori Meadows, who was next to Rei Saotome and seemed to understand only half of what she was saying, all of them couldn't help but believe Jiang He's nonsense with a mixture of belief and doubt!
"As a token of our gratitude, Yuma and I owe you a favor, which we'll definitely repay with other rare cards later!"
The Astral quickly and earnestly made a promise to Jiang He.
Putting everything else aside, this [No. 25·Heavy-Mounted Optical Camera·Focus Power] has already been sealed away in advance.
Even without him and Yuma engaging in Half Shadow Duel -like battle to defeat each other and then reclaim their loot, that would already be a significant help to them!
"Huh?! A rare, very rare card?!"
Upon hearing this, the young man with the lobster-shaped head, Yuma Tsukumo, immediately turned pale!
