If you're asking why I quit my 'Battle City 2' series - well, it's because I've instead decided to do a reboot of a former Yu-Gi-Oh! story series, but do my own spin on it. That series is the Team World series originally done by charizardag. Credit for the series goes to him, but I'm putting my own twists on it. You'll know them once you see them. As for the timeline - this will take place just after the Orichalcos arc, but the Legendary Dragons are still in their respective decks and Yugi still has the Legendary Knights and Legend of Heart. ROLL IT!

It was barely a month after the defeat of Dartz and his Swordsmen. Both KaibaCorp and Industrial Illusions were still dealing with some negative publicity and have yet to figure a way out. Inside the headquarters of KaibaCorp, we see top duelist and company President/CEO Seto Kaiba mulling his options with his top advisor and little brother Mokuba by his side.

"This is bad, Mokuba," Kaiba began. "We may have gotten our company back, but we still have the negative press from all those monster sightings. I don't know what to do at this point," he lamented.

"Why not bring Yugi in? Perhaps you two could come up with something," Mokuba suggested.

Kaiba sighed. "As much as I hate to admit it...you're right, Mokuba. If KaibaCorp is going to escape all this bad press, then I'll be needing help and our best option here may just be Yugi. Send for him at once."

Mokuba smiled. "You got it, big bro!"

Meanwhile, at Domino Arcade...

Yugi and Tea were in a dead heat on a Dance Dance Revolution game while Joey and Tristan were playing Counter Strike: Global Offensive, Serenity was playing MarioKart, striking everyone in her path with Blue Turtle Shells and destroying all challengers. Here is when Mokuba came in. He checked the Duel Monsters simulator first - no Yugi. First person shooter games - no Yugi. He then spotted Tea on the dance platforms and to his shock...there was Yugi right next to her! 'It's about time!' Mokuba thought to himself.

"YUGI!" Mokuba called out.

"Hey Mokuba!" Yugi greeted.

"Mokuba?" Everyone else said, surprised at the presence of Kaiba's little brother.

"What's up, Mokuba?" Tea asked.

"First off, I see you and Yugi finally got together!"

Yugi and Tea blushed at the statement. "Yeah...took us long enough," the duo said in unison.

"So what brings you here, Mokuba?" Tristan asked.

"Seto's still dealing with the negative press from all the monster sightings from when Dartz tried to take over KaibaCorp. He's asked for your help, Yugi."

"My help?"

"He wants all of you to come down to KaibaCorp as soon as possible."

"Well, what are we waiting for, guys? Rich Boy needs our help!" Joey said as they all followed Mokuba to the KaibaCorp limo.

Half an hour later, Yugi and co. found themselves at the top floor of KaibaCorp headquarters and there in his office was Seto Kaiba.

"Yugi and his friends are here, just as you asked, big bro!" Mokuba affirmed.

"Well done, Mokuba. Please sit down, you're just as much a part of this as Yugi and his dork patrol are," Kaiba told his younger brother. "Yugi, I've called you here because my brother told me that you may have an idea to help cancel out all the negative publicity that KaibaCorp has dealt with over the past few months."

Yugi smiled. "Well, Kaiba...you've called in just the man for the job! You put on a great tournament in Battle City, so why not put on another one...but with a twist?"

"What kind of twist?"

"Instead of Domino being the battleground, make it the entire world and make it constant tag duels!" Yugi proposed. "And make it tougher to get to the finals. For instance, it took 6 Locator Cards to get there in Battle City, but since it's a Team Tournament, the goal...will be 100 Locator Cards!"

"Hmmm...dueling in England, Paris, Madrid, Moscow and Sydney...that would be an amazing way to not just promote KaibaCorp but also bring hype to the upcoming Kaiba Lands I'll be putting in those cities. The Team Trial Tournament is a go!"

"It's time to put a call out to the best duelists in the world!"

"Well, of course, some of them are in this room right now...but we'll need much more for this to be a success. I just have one thing to say to you, Kaiba...IT'S TIME TO DUEL!"

The format and battleground are set! Now to put the call out! That will happen in the next chapter. Our first team is obviously Team Yugi and here's their lineup:
