Chapter 80 Hayato VS Keith
The first game is over, but the rest of the game has to go on. On the way to the auditorium from Jonouchi, the old deacon had already started the process and began to make arrangements for the players in the second game.
In the two portrait frames, the portraits of Jonouchi and Putah Gallem no longer appeared, and the portraits of the other six people changed rapidly and soon stopped.
It's Hayato, and the thief Keith.
"Hey, it's really unlucky that it's this guy." Sitting at the top of the auditorium, the thief Keith saw his own avatar appear on the screen and glanced at Hayato not far in front of him unhappily.
Because of the demonstration duel at the opening of Duel Kingdom, almost all the contestants were deeply impressed by Hayato who defeated the Japanese national champion, Insect Feather Moth. [Holding a sword in the left hand and holding a shield in the right hand] the permanent version of [Disturbed Land], the [Disturbed Yellow] that repeatedly jumped across the graveyard and the field, and was even fired, and the tricky effect of [Rainbow Chestnut] ball】.
Although he believed that he would not lose to a "kid" like Hayato, it did not affect Keith's regard for Hayato.
‘It’s just that the composition of that brat’s deck has almost been exposed in the previous battle, and no one who has witnessed my duel is here. From this point of view, it is obvious that I have a greater advantage. ’ Keith stood up, planning to take the first step and go to the player preparation area in the background to modify his deck, especially to put in a few cards targeting the warrior type.
But Keith, who was walking backstage with his back to everyone, didn't know that. Hayato also glanced at him and thought:
‘I remember that the monsters that Thief Keith is good at using seem to be gambling monsters, and they seem to be mainly mechanical ones? How about I put a few [System Crash] in there? ’
Ten minutes passed quickly. Hayato and Keith each prepared their decks for the duel and stood on the elevator that automatically went to the duel stage.
Looking at Hayato across from him, Keith felt quite unhappy: He was young, had good dueling skills, and was handsome. This kind of brat was too annoying. And I heard that he was specially invited by that bastard Becas?
"Hey, kid."
Hayato had just stood on the duel stage and was about to take out the deck and put it on the duel stage when he heard Keith's voice and looked up at him: "What are you doing, uncle?"
"No, it's nothing. It's just a kind reminder from an adult." Keith showed a mysterious smile, "Although you have some ability in dueling monsters, the water here is very deep and you can't control it."
"Especially, the ideas of adults are much more profound than those of you ignorant brats."
Hayato looked at the proud smile on Keith's face and was a little confused, but he also smiled back: "Then, uncle, please give me some guidance?"
The old deacon stood by the duel stage and said: "The players on both sides are all ready. I announce that the second match of the Duel Kingdom's quarter-finals will be between Hayato Kobayashi and Keith Howard."
"The game officially begins!"
"Duel!" X2
[Hayato: 4000LP, 5 cards in hand]
[Keith: 4000LP, 5 cards in hand]
"I get the first strike. It's my turn to draw a card!" Hayato grabbed the first strike with great momentum and drew a card from the deck. Looking at his perfect red and green ☆ hand☆ cards, Hayato smiled and said, "The so-called duel means wearing a smile. Uncle Keith, let me bring you happiness through duel!"
"Summon a monster in inner defense position, and then cover three cards." After covering the only monster in his hand, Hayato skillfully placed three cover cards in the backcourt, "My turn is over. "
[Hayato: 4000LP, 2 cards in hand]
[Defense on the inside]
[cover card] [cover card] [cover card]
‘Do you want to lay down your defense first to survive my first round of attacks, and then plan to counterattack me in the next round? ’ Keith glanced at the monsters on Hayato’s field and smiled, ‘But, I’ve already considered this situation! ’
"My turn, draw a card!" Drawing a card from the deck and adding it to his hand, Keith played a card from his hand, "Summon [Double-Barreled Pistol Dragon] in attack position!"
A four-legged, hound-like mechanical beast appeared on Keith's field, but although its body was roughly bionic, the head of this [Double-Barreled Pistol Dragon] looked like a pistol. . As soon as it appeared on the field, [Double-Barreled Pistol Dragon] fired a red laser from its head, aiming at the monster guarding the inside of Hayato's field.
"When [Double-barreled Pistol Dragon] is summoned to the field, you can choose a card on your field to activate and destroy it." Thief Keith explained, "It's just that the barrel of [Double-barreled Pistol Dragon] There's only a 1/2 chance that it's loaded, so the chance of it activating the effect is also 1/2."
"In other words, it's also a gambling card. It's a pity that I'm not facing you Jonouchi. I really want to watch the Gambling King Contest." Hayato shrugged indifferently, as if he didn't care about Keith's monster effect at all. Shrugging, "However, I think my luck is quite good."
"Haha, let's see who has better luck." Keith ordered, "[Double-Barreled Pistol Dragon], shoot the monster in defense position on the inside!"
"Kakakaka!"
With a command, the mechanism on the head of [Double-Barreled Pistol Dragon] deformed and made a "click" sound. The two barrels that were originally lined up one above the other were assembled end to end and turned into a long It has a long barrel, and a magazine pops out from the rear and is connected to the barrel.
Under the expectant eyes of everyone, the trigger connected to the gun barrel was pulled.
"Bang!"
The firing pin detonated the gunpowder, and a bullet shot out from the barrel, destroying the monster covered by Hayato in an instant. Obviously, the effect of [Double-Barreled Pistol Dragon] was activated successfully.
"No, in that case there won't be any obstruction on Hayato's field?" Jonouchi in the audience said with some worry, "It would be bad if he was attacked directly."

Seeing that the monster on Hayato's field was destroyed, although he couldn't see clearly what it was, it didn't look like his most feared [Rainbow Chestnut Ball]. Thief Keith said proudly: "In this way, I can attack directly."
"[Double-barreled Pistol Dragon], attack the duelist directly!"
[Double-barreled Pistol Dragon] had just folded the mechanism on its head when it received the command from the controller again. Because it's a machine, I won't complain. [Double-barreled Pistol Dragon]'s head was loaded with bullets, and a bullet was shot out of the barrel.
But in the unexpected look of the thief Keith, the bullet hit a wall that suddenly appeared, making a "ding" sound, without breaking the defense at all. A palm stretched out from the wall made of sand and stone. After grabbing the bullet that hit it, it let out a howl like a creature, threw the bullet back to the thief Keith's field, and launched the attack. Double-barreled Pistol Dragon] was destroyed by the bullets it fired.
Even Keith himself suffered battle damage as a result.
[Keith: 4000LP→3700LP]
"What! Where did that monster just come from!"
Looking at the surprised expression of the thief Keith, Hayato explained: "The effect of [Sand Swamp Monster] is that when it is destroyed and sent to the cemetery in defense position by means other than combat, the attack power and defense power are exchanged. Special summons on the field.”
"Weapons and guns are always double-edged swords, so don't suffer the consequences, Uncle Keith?"
