Chapter 846: Who is the pawn?
"So you're not dead."
Yu Yu stood at the door, just a few steps away from Chairman Kagemaru, looking at that grotesquely young face.
"Obviously." Kagemaru smiled, "That monster from ancient times... is it called 'Tragodia'? use my resources to achieve its ambitions.
But do you know what the truth is? He's an idiot, with the power to shake the world, the ability to shake the world, but no ability to use them effectively. "
After a pause, he added sarcastically, "Like a child wielding a submachine gun."
"Tragodia thinks he used you, but the truth is the other way around, right?" You Yu said, "You lost to him in the duel, became his pawn, and was used as a puppet by him... .but that is not you at all.
What you sacrificed to Tragodia was originally your puppet—a husk you abandoned long ago because of old age and sickness.
Tragodia thinks that he is controlling 'Chairman Kagemaru', but it's just an empty shell left after your transformation. "
Yu Yu narrowed his eyes.
"'Human body refining', a taboo chapter in alchemy, artificially creates a body that can carry the weight of the soul, and realizes the migration of the soul."
Kagemaru laughed dryly.
"Looks like you've talked to Daitokuji."
He didn't deny it, it looked like the kind of villain who had succeeded in his trick and felt that he had stabilized and no longer needed to hide.
Now that he has passed the stage where he needs to hide behind the scenes and work hard, he can't wait to find someone to tell his evil plans, to share his "genius" concept with others, like showing off his own pranks.
"Yes, even I have to admit that Daitokuji played a vital role in my plan. I invested a huge sum of money in his alchemy project that the average person might not even dream of to believe in his life, But it was worth it."
He spread his hands, showing off his young, strong, energetic body with smugness.
"Look, the miracle of alchemy, the combination of magic and technology by intelligent people, a young and perfect body.
The technology at Daitokuji has made things a lot easier. Alchemy has allowed me to extend my life and buy the necessary time - otherwise I might have died before I got to this point in my plan.
It also provides cover for me. Tragodia is an idiot, but his short-term purpose is the same as mine - to take the Three Phantoms from you and Seahorse Seto. So I let him do the high-profile work, and I can hide behind the scenes and avoid the unwanted attention...
...... Just like Mr. Yu Yu, the attention of troublesome people like you. "
"So you took the plan and let Tragodia take your past body as a puppet." You Yu said, "Tragodia thinks that you and your Tiandi Video Society are his pawns and his hands. Sword, but in fact he is your shield."
"That's right." Kagemaru said, "Thanks to his cover, I was able to do some necessary actions without attracting any attention. And everyone including you, Duel Wang Youyu, you even thought I was dead.
I know you will think that the 'Seven Stars' were sent by Tragodia, and you and the people from the D department, you all feel that the slate of the 'phantom' fell into Tragodia's hands.
But Tragodia was nothing but a miserable creature kept in the dark. In fact, that's what I did. Speaking of which, I have to thank that idiot in Tragodia, and I probably wouldn't have gotten this far if it wasn't for him attracting attention. "
"Seven Stars...you sent them to attack the students of the Dueling Academy, what's the reason?" You Yu asked.
He really couldn't see the point of it.
After all, although Seven Stars may belong to the mid-to-upper level among Dark Duelists, in You Yu's eyes, they are nothing more than scumbags. They lined up to give free money just like the gourd baby saving grandpa, and they didn't see any meaning.
"Of course I didn't expect the 'Seven Stars' to be of any use. Their level would not make a difference in front of you, Mr. Yu Yu, I understand." Kagemaru smiled, "But have you ever thought that maybe the duel itself is the goal? "
Yu Yu remembered.
It seems to be the case in the original. The so-called "seven keys to seal the phantom demons" are actually just a pretense, and the process itself is actually the purpose of sending seven stars to **** the keys through a dark duel.
Even Chairman Kagemaru made a plan when the academy was completed.
The Three Phantom Demons are demons that feed on the energy of dueling monster spirits, and the energy generated by the duelists in the duel can become the food of the Phantom Demons to a certain extent.
When he sent Seven Stars to attack the students, Kagemaru didn't actually expect them to win. In fact, it doesn't matter who wins or loses to him, he just wants to provide enough energy for the three magic demons sealed on the island through the dark duel.
Therefore, at the end of the animation "Three Phantom Demons", although Judai and others successfully defeated all the Seven Stars members, the seal was finally lifted, and the three Phantom Demons still reappeared in the world.
The only difference here from the animation is that Kagewan missed a small detail...a fatal detail.
"The Three Phantom Demons were not sealed on the island at all." You Yu shrugged, "Perhaps the purpose of sending the Seven Stars to attack is to replenish the Three Phantom Demons so that they can break the seal on their own, right? But you must be disappointed."
Kagemaru smiled: "Yeah, I already know. Your vigilance really surprised me, Mr. Yu Yu. I didn't expect that the seal on the island was actually a cover. The three phantom demons were not sealed there at all, but were You keep it close to your body.
I must admit that I was once again commanded by the First Army in this regard, and the plan of the 'Seven Stars' was a complete failure. "
Despite what he said, Kagemaru kept a calm smile from beginning to end. Combined with the sense of oppression that he felt when he stepped into the building, this gave You Yu an ominous premonition.
"The three phantoms you are holding now were obtained after the entity of the phantoms appeared in chaos and were sealed into cards, right?" Kagemaru asked suddenly.
Yu Yu did not deny it.
"But have you ever thought... The world has yet to discover the slate of the phantom demon?"
Yu Yu's eyes turned cold.
"Could it be that you..."
"That's right." Kagemaru laughed, "Fate made me discover them, in a forgotten corner of the world, the 'Magic' slate that was sealed in ancient times!
The phantom recognized me, accepted me, allowed me to have that power...and finally gave me this! "
He showed three cards that were apparently already prepared.
The red, yellow, and blue cards have no stars and no attributes on the card, and the cards are painted with hideous and arrogant monsters.
It is the three phantoms!
