Manjome, Judai, Fubuki, Dinosaur Lyuzaki...
Everyone is waiting for Tenjo Hikari's return.
They didn't ask why Tenjo Hikari went to the 5DS Team during this time, nor did they doubt him. When Tenjo Hikari arrived, they quietly welcomed him.
Tenjo Hikari paused briefly, then waved to everyone with a smile.
No matter where Tenjo Hikari is, the place where Fusion Dimension and Duel Academy folks are is his warm "home."
After a brief reunion with everyone, amid friends' jokes or complaints, Tenjo Hikari gradually shared the information he gathered during this period and what Shun told him today with everyone. Knowing that Mitsuzawa Daichi is actually in the City Hall Team, many in the group were excited.
Amnesia isn't scary. As long as he's here, it's fine.
Moreover, based on Mitsuzawa Daichi's presence, everyone increasingly believes that Polari might really be Marufuji Ryo.
But whether it is or not, no one can guarantee until the mask is taken off.
Even if the face under the mask is truly Ryo's, there's a small chance that it's actually a "Parallel World counterpart."
Such things, though unlikely, are not impossible.
Regardless, knowing this news provides a bit of relief to the friends from Duel Academy who are here searching for him.
The special card of Marufuji Shou was studied by Tenjo Hikari for a while.
In Tenjo Hikari's experience, this card is definitely a coordinate card, but it contains some peculiar aspects that are hard to explain. It requires specific tools for experimentation, which made Marufuji Shou somewhat anxious, but hurriedness can't conjure answers.
Fortunately, Tenjo Hikari mentioned that one or two days are sufficient to research detailed results. On the third day of the recess period, he would meet Shou and perform the card summoning.
Coincidentally, Tenjo Hikari was also researching the final "El Shaddoll"—El Shaddoll Apkallone during this time. He could test this card while trying to create this final El Shaddoll.
Although Tenjo Hikari estimates there might be more El Shaddolls in the "future," at least from his knowledge, this is the last one.
Meanwhile, while he was gathering with friends, on the other side, someone's matters had also concluded.
In the base of the Nordic Trio, the trio solemnly faced Fudou Yusei.
After a day of interaction and a simple "spar" at the card table, they clearly realized—
He is a terrifying opponent, even without relying on "power," just with skills!
Even though everyone used pre-constructed decks for dueling, Fudou Yusei's duels were quite astonishing.
They couldn't help but carefully scrutinize this guy.
When they learned that this guy came to visit, hoping to "become friends" with them, the trio was quite surprised.
After all, their relationship with the 5DS Team is actually quite bad, and Dragan's hostility towards Jack Atlas is well-known.
But Fudou Yusei acted as if this matter didn't exist, chatting with them.
And the topic was Fudou Yusei's own... creation ideology!
He hopes to gain everyone's recognition, receive support from all existences, allowing the Synchro Dimension to return to a state of harmony and cooperation among all things, collaboratively creating a perfect future—the "Synchro Coexistence" state, achieving victory in the ultimate God battle as a human.
To increase his credibility, he even disclosed where this idea originated—Tenjo Hikari's dueling made him firmly believe his dimension's summoning methods have significant value.
The Nordic Trio possesses the Rune's Eye, enabling them to see through things ordinary people can't, so they immediately noticed Fudou Yusei's body modification.
Because of this, they were more astonished when they heard Fudou Yusei's words.
His creation ideology and duel philosophy merged, not only that, but he even sacrificed his most prestigious "identity" to achieve this.
One must know, the "Power of the Red Dragon" in this world isn't some trivial status, but a position sharing the glory of "The One God"!
If Yusei retained the status of "Signer," after the Red Dragon becomes The One God, he could at least ascend to the status of Subordinate God or Human God, possessing immense power beyond ordinary human imagination.
His descendants, friends and family, could all enjoy endless wealth in the "new era," possibly becoming "nobles," enjoying thousands of years of everlasting victory glory.
This is a legacy more enduring and vast than ancient dynasties, and yet Fudou Yusei abandoned it all, not even for himself, but for... others?
The trio exchanged glances, Brever was somewhat skeptical, while Dragan, due to his "grudge" with Jack Atlas, also doubted Fudou Yusei.
"If you want us to believe, then show us your true skills—"
"Indeed, words alone won't suffice!"
Their Rune's Eye began to change; runes gradually emerged, evidently preparing to duel with Fudou Yusei before the competition.
But—
"Wait."
Harald suddenly interrupted his two companions.
He stood directly across from Fudou Yusei, exchanging a gaze, and the Rune's Eye revealed a peculiar brilliance.
