Chapter 100: Unforgivable, Pegasus
" Joey Wheeler ! Tristan !" Throwing away the Taser he had taken, Kaiba stood up. Before he could check on the condition of his long-worried-about younger brother, Mokuba Kaiba, he heard the voices of a man and a woman from a distance.
Turning his head to look, what entered Kaiba's sight was a dazzling starfish—I mean Yugi. He and Téa had just arrived. Seeing Joey Wheeler and Tristan lying on the ground, they anxiously called out, not even having time to greet Kaiba.
"Yu- Yugi..." Téa went to check on Tristan 's condition. Yugi came to Joey Wheeler 's side and helped him turn over. Looking at Yugi before him, Joey Wheeler endured the pain coming from all over his Body, forced a smile, and asked, "Mokuba, you weren't taken away, were you?"
"Yeah, Kaiba arrived here and saved Mokuba." Yugi said, glancing at Kaiba nearby and giving a friendly smile as a greeting. But Kaiba didn't appreciate it. He just looked at Joey Wheeler and Yugi, muttered "Boring Friendship," and walked towards Mokuba.
"Kaiba, you ran too fast~" In the woods, Bakura's white long hair was full of broken leaves and small branches. He ran out, panting heavily and looking disheveled. Seeing Yugi, Joey Wheeler , and the others, he paused slightly, then smiled and greeted them, "Oh, Yugi, Joey Wheeler , I didn't expect you guys to be here too~"
"Bakura?" Yugi and the others were also surprised. They didn't expect Bakura, whose presence in class could rival Yugi's, would actually come to the Duelist Kingdom.
Kaiba checked Mokuba's condition. Although there was a lot of commotion around, it seemed the Anesthetic used by the two Staff was very effective. Even after being thrown to the ground a second time, Mokuba was still sleeping soundly.
"Mokuba, I won't let anyone Damage you again." Kaiba picked up Mokuba. Looking at the small wounds on his brother's Body from falling to the ground and scraping against branches, he said with heartache. His gaze gradually shifted to the two Staff lying on the ground. How dare they treat his brother Mokuba like this? These two are unforgivable!
Téa and Yugi helped Tristan and Joey Wheeler respectively to lean against a large tree nearby to rest. But what Kaiba, who was still watching the two Staff, didn't notice was that the Finger of the Staff who had "taken down" Tristan moved almost imperceptibly. On his forehead, pressed against the muddy ground, a golden Eyeball pattern slowly appeared.
"Damn, the path here is too difficult to walk." Because of his large size, Hayato, who couldn't stand the forest, was struggling to walk through the jungle. After organizing his Cards, he followed the tracks left by Kaiba and Bakura. "Next time, no matter what, I'm taking the main road. If I take a small path again, I'm a pig."
From a distance, through the gaps in the branches, he saw Yugi and Téa concerned about Joey Wheeler and Tristan , as well as Kaiba standing up holding Mokuba, and Bakura standing on the other side tidying his long hair. Hayato opened his mouth, just about to call out a greeting, but suddenly, a wave of Power that Hayato was quite familiar with swept over him.
"This Power is!" Before Hayato could recognize the source of this Power, his head began to ache faintly, and his Body gradually became sluggish and unable to move. Hayato, who had once fought against this Power, recognized it. "It's Pegasus's Millennium Eye!"
"Kuriii~" Rainbow Kuriboh timely appeared, Spirit Power protecting Hayato's body. Although it couldn't allow him to move freely, it somewhat restored Hayato's gradually slowing thoughts. Immediately after, the Millennium Ring on Hayato's chest emitted a golden Light. Hayato felt his Body regain its ability to move under the illumination of this Light.
"Oh~ Hayato boy, I didn't expect you would also obtain a Millennium Item~"
Who else could speak with such broken English and also release the Power of the Millennium Eye besides Pegasus? Hayato looked up and saw one of the Staff who had been lying on the ground slowly getting up. With empty eyes, he looked towards Hayato and revealed a strange smile. On the forehead of this Staff, a golden Eyeball pattern was emitting Light.
"You are Pegasus, right?" Although it was a question, Hayato's tone was very certain. "I always thought the organizer of the Duelist Kingdom shouldn't interfere with the progress of the Match."
"You're wrong about that, Hayato boy~" The Staff, or rather, the Puppet controlled by Pegasus, raised a Finger and shook it. "Kaiba boy and Mokuba boy are not participants of the Duelist Kingdom Tournament. Strictly speaking, they are all guys disturbing the Match order. As the organizer, I have sufficient reason and qualification to deal with them."
Hayato smiled. "The 'dealing with' you mentioned, you wouldn't be referring to using the Power of the Millennium Eye to strip the Soul of one of the two Brothers, just like you stripped Grandpa Solomon 's Soul, and then using that to threaten the other, would you?"
"How long are you going to keep playing with people's Hearts, Pegasus!"
"Oh~ Hayato boy, are you Angry? Angry isn't good for a person's Body." Facing Hayato, Pegasus seemed quite composed. "However, you really do understand me. I did have that Plan. Brothers turning against each other, and then both falling into the abyss of defeat because of their feelings for each other, that truly is the Best drama in the world~"
"I won't agree to something like that." Hayato's hand, hidden behind his back, suddenly whipped out. The Card of Gaia The Fierce Knight spun out like a ninja's shuriken, flying straight towards the face of the Staff controlled by Pegasus. On the Card, the figure of Gaia appeared, riding his War Horse at full speed, thrusting the Gun in his hand along the position of the Card.
The Power of Card Spirits is divided into multiple stages. As the strongest Card Monster in Hayato's hand currently, although it has the restriction of needing to use the main Card to Attack, there is no doubt that the current Gaia The Fierce Knight can barely interfere with physical reality.
The illusory long Gun flew straight towards his face, but the Staff calmly extended his hand. The golden Eyeball on his forehead—the Eye of Udjat, symbolizing "punishment"—shone brightly. Upon touching the insubstantial Light, Gaia The Fierce Knight's long Gun seemed to hit something and couldn't advance an inch. Even Gaia The Fierce Knight's main Card was caught between Pegasus's Fingers.
"Last time we met, Hayato boy, your Gaia The Fierce Knight hadn't reached this stage yet, right? You're growing really fast, it makes me feel like I'm already old~" Glancing at the Gaia The Fierce Knight at his Fingertips, Pegasus smiled and threw the Card back. "Duel Monsters Cards that have awakened Spirit Power must be properly taken care of. Don't throw them around anymore, Hayato boy~"
As powerful as Gaia The Fierce Knight's Attack was when it launched, it was just as powerful when Pegasus threw it back. Accompanied by dazzling golden Light, Hayato caught the returning Gaia The Fierce Knight Card, but his entire Body was directly knocked back into the trunk of the large tree behind him.
By the time Hayato raised his head, the Staff controlled by Pegasus, as well as his companion, had disappeared. Mokuba, whom Kaiba was holding, had also disappeared with them.
What remained at the scene, audible to everyone who had escaped the Power of the Millennium Eye, was a sentence from Pegasus: "Yugi-boy, Hayato boy, and Kaiba boy, you'd better speed up~ Just now, the First Top 8 Duelists have been born."
"If you want to get back what you lost, come to my Castle. I've been waiting for you~"
It was because it was a notebook that he escaped a disaster, but it's still unforgivable, Pegasus!
