Yu-Gi-Oh!, the Roar of the Weak

The duel begins in Chapter 2.

Di Xing, unable to contain his joy, hurriedly shouted, "Activate Magic Card Three: White Bone Zone!" Instantly, countless white skeletons crawled out from the wreckage and scrambled onto the shredder.

Even this enormous crusher was instantly overturned and submerged in the sea of ​​skeletons by the overwhelming tide of bones.

Seeing this, Di Xing finally breathed a sigh of relief, but before he could finish, a loud shout rang out, and Zhuang Sini actually jumped out of the pile of bones.

"Hmph, child's play. The weak are still weak no matter how many chances they have. While it might destroy a lifeless shredder, it's useless against me. But I didn't expect you to be a graphics card engineer."

"But one star is one star. Even if you're a graphics card engineer, it doesn't change the fact that you're trash."

As he spoke, Johnny pulled a pistol from his pocket, the dark muzzle pointing directly at Di Xing. Upon seeing this, Di Xing's mind raced. A plan formed in the next instant, and he practically blurted it out.

"Heh, you call me trash? I think you're the trash! If you weren't born into a good family, how could you have your current status? My card-playing skills are a million times better than yours!" Upon hearing this, Zhuang Sini's veins bulged on his forehead. "Fine, I'll show you my dueling skills, kid!"

Heh, the fish has taken the bait. Now, as long as I win the duel against this bald guy, I'll be out of this predicament. My Soul Deck might not be able to beat Arena decks, but it should be no problem against a native.

Thinking this, he reached for his card pack. "Huh? Where are my cards? Where's my invincible deck?" Di Xing then remembered that he hadn't taken any cards when he ran away to avoid Wang Dazhuang's attack, so his card pack was now empty.

Seeing this, Johnny couldn't help but burst into laughter. "Trash is trash after all. You don't even have a deck and you dare to spout nonsense. Well, how could low-level players possibly have the money to buy a deck? You should just work honestly and turn into corpses so I can fill your power furnace. That's your only value."

"Shut up!" Di Xing gritted his teeth, wishing he could tear the bald man's mouth apart. This world revered duels, but a commoner could toil his entire life and still not afford a deck of cards, with no chance of ever turning his life around, just like Xiangzi who couldn't afford a rickshaw. This world was utterly rotten, but even so, even in such a hopeless world...

The inhabitants of this world, being from lower planets, are also struggling to survive. What right do you, you bald bastard, have to call them trash?!

With Di Xing's roar, the skeletons that had been scattered by Zhuang Sini regrouped behind him. "We lend you our power to help us defeat him and avenge us!"

As the voice spoke, the skeletons transformed into countless points of light, gathering in Di Xing's left hand, where a simple duel disk made of bones slowly appeared.

Seeing this, Johnny revealed a playful smile. "Heh, interesting. These people have lent you their only remaining energy after death. So let the duel begin, duel."

Instantly, an invisible barrier rose around the two of them. At the same time, three cards—rock, paper, scissors—appeared in front of Di Xing. He chose rock without hesitation. The result was announced: Zhuang Sini had chosen paper.

"Hahaha, I get to go first!" Johnny drew five cards from his deck, glanced at them, and said, "You're lucky, kid. I actually had a bit of a bad hand, hehehe. But it's more than enough to deal with you. I'll use this low-star card I just grabbed as cannon fodder. I'll Normal Summon [Banshee of the Corpse World] (Banshee) ATK: 1800 DEF: 200. Then I'll set three cards face down and end this turn."

A beautiful young woman with white hair and golden eyes, her eyes blurry with tears, appeared in the arena. She wore a pure white dress and sat pitifully on the ground, her hands and feet shackled.

"Holy crap, is this holographic projection really that good? But I remember Banshee from the Corpse World wasn't wearing shackles in the picture," Di Xing thought, looking at Banshee's bare feet. The black shackles made Banshee's small feet look even whiter. "That bald guy just said he 'just caught' something. Does this mean that wild Duel Monsters can be captured in this world?"

Searching through Di Xing's memories in this world, Di Xing confirmed his suspicions: in this world, Di Xing had also tried to catch a fairytale animal, a rabbit, only to be kicked half to death.

"Thank goodness it didn't turn into the Thunderstorm and crush you," Di Xing thought to himself. After looking at the five cards he had drawn, his lips twitched involuntarily. Sure enough, it was the White Bone deck.

Others who time-travel use the Pearl Tear, the Wrath of the Absolute, and the icy water to beat up the natives' White Bone (mortal bone) decks. But here I am, using White Bone myself. However, thinking about it, these are all manifestations of the resentment of the dead around me, so it's only natural that I'm using a White Bone deck.

Di Xing couldn't help but feel a little nervous. He was well aware that his dueling skills in his original world weren't particularly high, and he didn't know what the dueling level was like in this world. Damn it, because his level was too low in this world, Di Xing hadn't been exposed to many duels, so his memories weren't very reliable.

Now that things have come to this, I have no choice but to bite the bullet and go for it. Fortunately, as a casual player of the Souls series, I have studied the Bone deck. However, I don't know if I have that card. If I do have that card, then I can still put up a fight.

Seeing that Dixing was staring intently at Bansie on the field, Johnny couldn't help but reveal a lewd smile. "You've got your eye on this weakling, haven't you? Well, this weakling is only decent-looking. It's a pity we used a trap to catch her, and she turned into a card before we even had a chance to taste her. How about this, you materialize her so I can have some fun, and after I'm done, I can let you have some fun too."

"Shut up!" Di Xing's expression instantly turned cold. "I challenge you to a card duel. Do you dare?" From Di Xing's memories of this world, he knew that in a card duel, the winner could take the loser's card. He absolutely couldn't let Bansi remain in this guy's hands.

"Whatever, you can't win anyway. Besides, I have no use for those trash cards of yours. If you lose, I'll take your life."

"Okay, my turn. Draw a card, Set one monster, Set two cards, End this turn." Damn, this setup looks like I'm just cannon fodder!

Johnny let out a maniacal laugh. "Hiding like a coward, just as you'd portray a rat. But don't rush to end your turn. During your end phase, I'll activate the trap card 'Soul Reincarnation' to send this weakling to the graveyard, and I'll draw two cards."

"Then it's my turn. I draw a card, activate the Discount Shopping effect, discard Magera from my hand, draw two cards, hehehe, I've drawn them! Your death is imminent! I'll activate this weakling's effect again, banishing her from the Graveyard, and activate [Undead World] from my Deck."
