Is this the poker world?Ada thief!

Although it was confirmed that the cards sold in the store were all genuine and no pirated cards appeared, Hayato did not let go of his suspicions about this "Black Scorpion Card".

The confession of Light and Dark Mask, the past deeds of the card store, and the five store employees who were suspected of being the "Black Scorpion Robbery Group" made Hayato more and more convinced that something was wrong with this store.

Just a little superficial appearance to make Hayato take it lightly?That was really looked down upon, it was simply an insult to him!

"Thank you very much for your business." The beautiful clerk smiled softly. After confirming that she had received the digital currency transferred from Hayato, she handed a card to Hayato.

"Mr. Hayato, what are you doing! Mr. Hayato!" Tenma Tsukiyuki whispered in Hayato's ear, "Why are you waiting in line too!"

"Although I originally wanted to say that, their prices are really good." After hearing Tenma Tsukiyuki's words, Hayato looked at the card he bought, "A card with a rarity of UR [Bitter Choice] ] It’s only 250 yen, the price of a tamashi, who can resist this?”

"This price is indeed cheap." Tenma Tsukiyuki couldn't say anything to refute, "But it doesn't mean that Mr. Hayato, you will go out of your way to line up to buy it, right?"

Although Hayato could easily buy high-rare cards on the market for his own use if he wanted to, spending money to buy bargains is a special pleasure. He really did not think about the so-called "rare cards" of "Black Scorpion Cards" in advance. Promotion" actually gave such a big discount.

"You don't understand, of course I do this with my deepest intentions." Hayato looked at the card in his hand, "The so-called 'rare card promotion' seems to be the biggest advantage of this newly emerged 'Black Scorpion Cards' With the means of attracting customers, even I can’t help but want to buy two cards at such a favorable price. It is natural to attract a large number of customers to stay here and buy cards.”

"But the problem is that this is no longer a method that can be explained by 'losing money to gain publicity' or 'spending money to buy reputation'. The prices of high-rare cards have been pushed so low. Let alone making money, they are not even cost-priced. It’s almost impossible to take it back. It would be fine if it was just one or two at a time, but they can easily take out a whole box of cards..."

"To put it this way, it is indeed unreasonable. The business that can be attracted by this method is not worth the effort required to purchase rare cards." Tenma Tsukiyuki looked at Hayato's hands, "So Mr. Hayato, what do you want? …”

"It turns out that I seemed to have guessed wrong. Even these cards are genuine and not pirated fake cards." Hayato shook his head and put the [Bitter Choice] into his card box, "As a A duelist's instinct tells me that there is definitely something wrong with these cards, not with the cards themselves, but with the source behind them."

"And if you want to know the answer to your question, you just have to ask—"

Before Hayato finished speaking, the silver-haired one-eyed store manager Zarug came to Hayato and Tenma Tsukiyuki at some point and said mysteriously: "These two customers look very kind~"

"I'm a popular person." Looking at Zarug who was leaning to the side, Hayato took a step back and asked, "What's the matter with you?"

"Haha, because I think the customer seems to have some doubts about our store, and answering the customers' doubts is one of my responsibilities as the store manager. Only by providing better services to the guests can we bring more customers to the store. Customers stay in our store." Zarug narrowed his only eye and said, "Don't you think so, Mr. Duel King?"

Although Hayato did not use the cognitive interference ability of [Quantum Cube], he also made a basic disguise to hide his identity. He did not admit his identity, but looked at Zarug in confusion: "Duel King? He is here. ?"

"Don't deny it, Mr. Hayato Kobayashi. In fact, I recognized you from the moment you walked in. An outstanding person like you is so dazzling no matter where you are. I will never admit your mistake." Zarug said as he looked at the countless powerful elves behind Hayato who were invisible to ordinary people but could be clearly seen by him.

With that said, Zarug walked away from Hayato and returned to the cashier. He picked up the microphone again: "Dear customers, I want to announce good news to you here: that is the legendary duelist, the most powerful person in the world. The strong man, the master of monster liberation, the man who defeated the father of duel monsters, the surrenderer of the three phantom gods, the born of the storm, and the duel king Kobayashi Hayato also came to our Black Scorpion Cards!"

"When did so many people come to the store?"

The porter, Gao Ge, scratched his head and was a little confused. Cliff, the man with glasses, heard this and said angrily: "That's all the same person."

"Then his name is too long, right?"

Ignoring the Black Scorpion Card store clerks for the time being, the customers in the store immediately became excited after hearing the words of the store manager Zarug. They were even more excited than before when Black Scorpion Card started a rare card promotion.

"Mr. Hayato actually appears here? Hasn't the Kame Card House always said on its sign that it is more popular with legendary duelists?"

"I originally liked the Black Scorpion card, but I like it even more now."

"Hahaha, I'm so excited that I'm about to pull up the flag!"

Unexpectedly, Zalug unexpectedly revealed his identity decisively after discovering himself, and the excited customers quickly noticed that Zalug was wearing a pair of sunglasses even when he was indoors, following his one-eyed gaze. Hayato could only helplessly take off his glasses, crush them, and wipe his hair with his palms.

"I am the second Duel King, the only one who exists now."

Using Aizen's movements to recite Kenji's lines, Hayato revealed his true appearance to the customers.

"Wow! He's really the duel king!"

"I'm going to have a rough time with him!"

"Wuhu, take off!"

"Mr. Hayato, can you perform that again? That's it."

Although some inexplicable people seemed to be mixed in among the excited customers, Hayato still put on a serious face when he heard the words of the customers who suddenly gathered around him. He took out a card at random and faced the person in the card. [Disturbing·Huang] said: "Dedicate yourself to the cause of justice!"

"This is it, this is the taste!"

"That's great. This is what I want to see!"

Seeing that Hayato was surrounded by customers in the store, Zarug's single eye showed a sense of pride, and he took the opportunity to add fuel to the fire: "Mr. Hayato Kobayashi rarely comes to our store. You must not miss such a good opportunity." After all, this is a rare opportunity to get up close and personal with the duel king and even have a duel. Mr. Hayato Kobayashi will definitely not have the heart to refuse a duel invitation from fans who love him so much, right?"

After finishing speaking, seeing that the customers were indeed getting ready to move as he had seduced and aroused the desire to duel with the duel king, Zarug immediately quietly said to the clerks behind him: "Everyone pack your things quickly and prepare to run away. Stop Kobayashi Hayato while he is delayed!"

"Yes, store manager." The four store clerks said in unison.People who come to the card shop to buy cards, even if they are not professional duelists, are fans of dueling monsters.Although Hayato has a very high reputation in the Duel Monsters world, even higher than the "Father of Duel Monsters" Becas, it is not enough to say that all the customers in the store are his fans.

More often than not, they are just ordinary passers-by who join in the fun after seeing a rare big shot. It’s like people who don’t listen to Jay Chou’s songs suddenly find that he is having noodles with them in the same store and on the same table. How is this? You also have to come and ask for an autograph.

Hayato also somewhat understood Zarug's thoughts. I'm afraid this guy didn't discover him and recognize his identity from the moment he and Tenma Tsukiyuki entered the store. I'm afraid he deliberately started a rare card promotion after he entered the store. The purpose is to attract as many customers as possible in a short period of time, and then delay himself after his identity is exposed.

Seeing the shop assistants next to Zalug leaving one by one, and Zalug seeming to want to escape, Hayato said decisively: "That's right, I do want to duel you all one by one. After all, I like fan service the most."

Tenma Tsukiyuki, who was squeezed away by the crowd, raised his eyebrows. He couldn't help but think of the so-called "fan service" duel he performed on himself after he said he was a fan of Hayato. So where was the duel?It was clearly a massacre, so brutal.

Without waiting for the excitement of the customers beside him, Hayato changed the topic: "But, there are too many people in the store. No matter who I choose, I'm afraid the people I didn't choose will not be satisfied. I can't favor one over the other." .”

"So although I'm very reluctant, I can't duel with you." Hayato paused and then said, "But my appearance here may have caused a lot of trouble to the store manager's business, and I must find a way to compensate. He’ll do it in one go.”

Hearing Hayato's words, Zarug's heart skipped a beat and he suddenly felt bad. He sped up a bit and walked out of the checkout counter towards the small door leading to the rear warehouse.

However, his movements are still to fight for the effect of timing in duels. Hayato speaks faster. Before he left, Hayato said: "Therefore, why don't you let me talk to the store manager, Mr. Zarug?" Let’s have a duel.”

Zaruge, who tried to drag down Hayato by coercing public opinion, suffered the consequences. In just a moment, the crowd between Hayato and Zaruge gave way and all turned their attention to him who was tiptoeing and preparing to run away. Hayato and him The visual interaction between them suddenly became unobstructed.

'Zarug, you are a very good store manager, but your store is not good, hahahahaha'

'Kobayashi Hayato, you plotted against me! '

He wanted to take off the blindfold and throw it on the ground to vent his dissatisfaction, but Zarug's superficial skills were perfect. Although he was obviously unhappy, he looked at Hayato with a happy face and said: "Really? , Mr. Hayato? Can I, a layman in dueling monsters, fight you in a duel?"

"But I don't think that's good. I like Duel Monsters very much, but I didn't become a duelist because I didn't have enough ability. I just opened a card shop like this to help those who are fighting as much as I can. It is not my wish for young people who are capable to play duel monsters and become stronger together with me, to duel with a legendary duelist like you."

Who doesn’t know how to say something nice?Hayato can naturally bring the topic to Zarug and make the target of his duel Zarug. Zalug himself will also tell a few lies to cleverly reject Hayato's duel.If others don’t know, he doesn’t know?Kobayashi Hayato is capable of playing dark games. If you fight him in a duel, your outcome will be "death".

"Oh, it's okay. You're welcome, Manager Zarug."

"Oh, you really don't have to. Mr. Hayato, you are too polite."

Seeing that Hayato still refused to let him go, Zarug realized that he might not be able to survive without a duel, but even if he was forced to duel, he still had an escape route and did not have to face Hayato.

Focusing on Pegasus Tsukiyuki not far away, Zarug said: "Mr. Hayato, you are so enthusiastic, I'm afraid I can't refuse you anymore, but in a duel with you, I will definitely defeat the stone with an egg, and I can't do anything to the customers in the store. To put on an interesting show, why not let me have a duel with the young man who came to the store with you?"

"Oh, Tsukiyuki? Manager Zarug, you want to duel with the young man, okay, no problem, then you can start now." Hayato looked back at the confused Tenma Tsukiyuki, Pulling him out from the crowd and standing in his position, he said, "As for me, I will be the commentator and referee for this duel."

"By the way Yue Xing, you brought your own deck of cards, right?"

Although he didn't know why the target of the duel with Mr. Zalugo suddenly changed from Mr. Hayato to himself, after hearing Hayato's inquiry, Tenma Tsukiyuki nodded, took out a deck of cards from his waist and said, "Well, As a duelist, it should be a basic quality to never leave your deck."

As mentioned before, although there are Hayato fans among the customers, in fact, most of them are just those who join in the fun. This special hobby is a characteristic shared by all human beings regardless of nationality. Although I did not see the duel of the Duel King , but watching the show is enough. Besides, they might not be able to understand the Duel King's duel. Instead, it would be more interesting than the duel between the manager of the card shop and an ordinary-looking young man.

The shelves in the store were moved, and the customers consciously made a large space for the duel between Zarug and Tianma Yuexing. Both sides wore duel disks prepared by themselves, and the duel was about to begin.

"Duel!" X2
[Zarug: 4000LP, 5 cards in hand]

[Tianma Yuexing: 4000LP, 5 cards in hand]

"I'll get the first attack!" Taking the lead in drawing out a card, Zarug turned his head and glanced at the clerks who returned to the store loyally because he couldn't run away, with a slightly ferocious look on his face. With a bright smile, he played a card in his hand and said, "Activate the magic card [Rough Man's Prediction]. When there are no monsters on my field, I will special summon a normal monster with level 4☆ or lower from the deck. I will special Summon [Sapphire Dragon]!”

"Then, normally summon [Alexandrite Dragon], and after placing three cards, the round ends!"

On the Zarug field, two sparkling gem dragons appeared. Just looking at the appearance, they were extremely gorgeous, and they were not weak in stature either. They were both noble dragon monsters that were both handsome, gorgeous and powerful. Tianma Yuexing immediately noticed that the two monsters had special effects when they appeared on the stage. It was obvious that they were very rare cards.

However, although the card looks good and the monster is handsome, I can't help but that the two monsters are actually just lower-level monsters. Although they are good-looking, they are just like that. As Zarug himself said, he has no duelist talents.In a duel with ordinary people, this level may be enough, but at this moment, Zarug's opponent is Tianma Yuexing.

[Zarug: 4000LP, 1 cards in hand]

【Alexandrite Dragon】【ATK2000】

【Sapphire Dragon】【ATK1900】

【Cover】X3
"Two excellent dragon-type normal monsters are a good choice to start. But my angels are not worse than your monsters." Tianma Yuexing calmly drew a card, "My turn, draw a card .”

"Then I activate the magic card [Planet Transformation], add the field magic card [Sanctuary of the Sky] from my deck to my hand, and I activate it immediately!"

When I opened the Writer Assistant and started typing, I suddenly found that there was already a scheduled update. Yesterday I set it to update at 7 a.m., but it was not this morning but tomorrow morning. I almost lost all my attendance this month.
In short, happy Double Festival everyone, although the Mid-Autumn Festival has passed
