Yu-Gi-Oh! Rise of a Legend

Chapter 4

The ship had arrived at the Kingdom. The participants were currently walking off of the ship, down on to the pier. Tea and Tristan was nervous as they were walking down since they wasn't supposed to be there, but tried to not look guilty in order to avoid suspicion.

Yugi looked around with a serious expression on his face, "So this is the Kingdom, we have finally arrived". Now he just needed to find out the rules for the tournament and win his way through it in order to get to Pegasus so he could win back his grandpa

However Yugi jumped slightly when he heard a loud sneeze behind him. He turned around concerned and looked at Joey who was drying his nose with the sleeve of his green jacket while Tea and Tristan was also looking at him concerned.

"I'm sorry Joey, if I hadn't been so foolish then you wouldn't have a cold right now". Yugi felt that it was his fault, because if he hadn't shown Weevil his Exodia cards then he wouldn't have been able to throw them overboard and Joey wouldn't have jumped in to the ocean.

Joey looked at Yugi with a smirk, "Don't worry about it Yug, I mean, you didn't do anything wrong". He then narrowed his eyes and got an angry expression on his face before he turned his head to his right, "It's that bastard's fault, who threw your important cards overboard".

Yugi followed Joey's gaze and saw how Weevil was looking at them with a satisfied smirk. Yugi narrowed his eyes and gritted his teeth, Weevil, I won't forgive you for what you did. Yugi thought to himself, determined to knock Weevil out of this tournament as soon as possible.

At that moment, a tall man with brown hair with his hair shaped in to a spike on his forehead with sunglasses and a black suit, "Welcome duelist, to the Kingdom, my name is Kemo. Now please, be kind and gather around the castle gate". He turned around and held out his hand towards the castle on top of s cliff.

Yugi narrowed his eyes, "So that's Pegasus's castle huh?"

Joey placed a hand on Yugi's shoulder and looked at him with a smirk, "alright, let's get going then". Yugi nodded his head with a serious expression and the gang followed the rest of the participants.

Yugi and Joey walked up the stairs towards Pegasus's castle with Tea and Tristan walking behind them. However Tea then noticed a boy with white hair in the forest, she stopped shocked and looked again but the boy was gone.

Tristan noticed that Tea had stopped and turned around and looked at her confused, "Tea? What are you looking at?" Yugi and Joey heard Tristan's question and turned around and looked Tea with wondering expressions.

Tea looked at the boys with a confused expression, "I could've sworn that I just saw Bakura in the forest, but now he's gone".

All three of the boys looked in the direction she had been looking, however they couldn't see their white haired classmate. Joey looked at Tea, "Maybe you just thought you saw him Tea. Anyway we should hurry up and get to the castle".

Tea got a confused expression on her face, she was sure that she had seen Bakura, however right now was not the time to think about it. She then followed the boys as they continued towards the castle.

A while later, everyone was standing outside the gates to the castle, two boys who was old friends was standing next to each other and was looking at the competitors and one of them noticed Weevil, "Wow, check it out, that's Weevil Underwood, he's the National Champion".

His friend then noticed Rex, "And there is Rex Raptor, the runner up in the championship".

The first boy then noticed a tall muscular boy without a shirt with black spiky hair and a spear in his hand, "And that's Mako Tsunami, he was third in the championship". He was amazed to see the top three of the National Championship in one place at the same time.

The second boy looked around, "Wow many strong duelists are here, however if Seto Kaiba wasn't in a coma and was here right now, then he would win no doubt, I mean he is the World Champion".

The first boy looked at him shocked, "Well he was, after he did get defeated by that guy Yugi Muto. He must've been invited to this tournament if he was good enough to defeat Kaiba. I just wish I knew how he looked, I would love to challenge him to see how good he really is".

The boys however had no idea that Yugi and his friends was standing not far from them and heard their entire conversation. Yugi had an embarrassed expression on his face while his friends just looked at him with smiles on their faces.

However at that moment Kemo appeared on the balcony over the castle gates, "Listen up duelists. Your host, the great Maximillion Pegasus will now explain the rules of this tournament for all of you". Everyone looked when they heard that and saw Kemo walk away.

Yugi narrowed his eyes when he saw Pegasus appear on the balcony while Yami appeared next to him and glared at Pegasus.

Pegasus looked down and immediately located Yugi and his friends, he silently chuckled for himself, Excellent, you're here Yugi boy, which means that the first part of my plan is now in motion. Pegasus thought to himself.

Pegasus held out his arms wide with a smile, "Welcome duelist, to the Duelist Kingdom tournament! Now allow me to explain the rules to you. You're free to use your Duel Monsters cards anyway you want during the tournament. The normal rules are still intact, each player will have 4000 life points and direct attacks are allowed if the opponent has no monsters on the field".

Pegasus then stopped talking for a second while he seemed to be picking up something and then held up the glove and the star chips they had received before arriving on the island, "Now, every duelist invited received a Duelist glove and two star chips in advance".

Pegasus then held out the glove before he continued, "Now, as you all can see, there is ten holes on the glove's ring in which you will be keeping your star chips". The duelists put on their gloves while Pegasus was talking and put their star chips in to the ring.

Pegasus then held up a star chip so that everyone could see it, "Now, these star chips are the proof as your status as a participant of this tournament, and during each duel, the duelists will be betting star chips".

Yugi narrowed his eyes, I see, in order words, the loser has to give the star chips that was betted to the winner of the duel, which means that the ones that loses all of their star chips are eliminated from the tournament.

Yugi looked at Joey and saw the nervous look in his eyes and he knew why, he and Joey had only one star chip each, which meant that they both had to win their first duels in order to remain in the tournament.

Pegasus then spoke again, "This whole island will be the battlefield for your duels, and the ones who manage to survive this battle royale and obtain 10 star chips will be allowed inside of the castle and take parts of the finals".

Pegasus then held up a finger and spoke with a serious tone, "However, you only have a 48 hours time limit to duel and win 10 star chips, and the tournament will be starting in one hour. Everyone who hasn't managed to gather 10 star chips after 48 hours is automatically eliminated from the tournament and will be sent away from the island".

Pegasus then continued, "Also, there is some special rules exclusive to this tournament that will test your knowledge of the game, also some of the rules can be used based on the star chips you're betting. I could tell you about them right now, however where is the fun in that? It's more fun to learn about them by yourselves through the duels, but don't worry, you will be informed when the special rules that is decided by the betting of star chips can be used".

Pegasus smiled at the duelist, "Alright dear duelists, I wish all of you the best of luck in your duels, now spend this next hour to get ready because after that, the duel begins".

Pegasus then walked away with a smirk on his face, Now fight Yugi boy, after all, if you want to save your grandfather, you need ten star chips in order to get in to the castle, and I'll be waiting for you, that is if you manage to get through all of the traps I have set for you. Pegasus thought to himself while he chuckled.

Yugi clenched his right fist with the glove, "Don't worry grandpa, we will win ten star chips and we will save you". Yugi looked at Yami after mentally saying that, "Right Yami?"

Yami looked at him with a determined expression on his face, "No doubt about it, we will take down anyone who tries to stop us from saving grandpa". Yugi smiled at Yami and nodded his head.

Tristan around and saw how everyone was leaving the castle yard, he then looked at his friends, "Alright, we should get out of here and check the island, to see if he can find out anything about these special dueling rules Pegasus talked about, I mean it will be useful if we can learn a little about it before the duels begins".

Yugi and the others nodded their heads and then all of them left the castle yard.

Almost an hour later, Yugi and the others was standing in a meadow field. They had searched most of the island, however they hadn't found any clues about the new rules.

Joey stood in front of Yugi while he was holding his star chip with a troubled expression, "I'm sorry Yugi, you gave me one of these important star chips, which puts you in a difficult situation since it means that you can't lose your first duel, I don't think that you are gonna lose, but still…" Joey still felt troubled and wondered if he should give it back to Yugi.

However Yugi just shook his head with a smile on face, "Don't be sorry Joey, I gave it to you since I have faith that you will do well in this tournament, not only that, but you have a reason to be here, and that reason will give you strength". Just like Yugi's mission to save his grandfather would give him strength, Joey's desire to get the money to save his sister's eyes would give him strength and motivate him to fight harder and get better.

Joey smiled at Yugi with a grateful expression on his face, happy not only that Yugi was giving him this chance, but also that he had that much faith in him.

Tea looked at Joey with a supporting smile, "We know that you two will do well, just take it slowly Joey and don't face too experienced players too early".

Tristan nodded his head, "Yeah, face some of the less experienced players first and work your way up. Remember, we will be here to support you the whole time".

Joey looked at them with a touched expression, "You guys…" He was so happy that he had such great and supporting friends. He then turned towards Yugi with a determined expression on his face, "Alright Yugi, we must win the first our first duels, to save gramps and to save my sister's eyes". Yugi nodded his head with a determined expression on his face.

They then suddenly heard bangs and saw how fireworks got fired up in to the sky, which signaled the start of the Duelist Kingdom tournament.

Yugi and the gang walked through the meadow field, Joey looked at Yugi, "So what are you planning Yug?" He had an idea of what Yugi was planning, but he still asked in order to be sure.

Yugi narrowed his eyes as he continued walking, "You know what I'm going to do Joey, after what happened on the boat, I plan on facing Weevil first and knock him out of the tournament".

He took out two cards from his pocket and looked at them, it was the ruined Exodia cards that Joey had managed to get his hands on. While they were really damaged by the water and not that useful without the other three, Yugi refused to get rid of them.

Joey got a cruel smirk on his face, "Yeah I suspected that you were going to say that, and let me tell you, I'm looking forward to seeing that little bug get knocked out of the tournament after what he did". Tea and Tristan nodded their heads with angry expressions. Yugi and Joey had told them that it had been Weevil who threw Yugi's Exodia cards overboard and so they also wanted him to pay for that.

Yugi put the Exodia cards in to his pocket again and looked up in time to see Weevil at the edge of the forest, causing him to stop in his tracks. The gang had also seen him and glared at him with angry expressions.

Yugi opened his mouth to call out a challenge to Weevil. However to his shock so turned Weevil around and ran in to the forest.

Joey got an angry expression on his face, "That coward, he's just planning on running away scared now after what he did on the boat?"

However Yugi had a feeling that Joey was wrong, he had seen the expression on Weevil's face before he ran away and he had had a confident smirk on his face, he knew that Weevil expected him to follow him. He knew that Weevil most likely was leading them in to a trap, however he didn't plan on letting him get away.

Yugi started running towards the forest with Joey, Tristan and Tea not far behind him. Once they got in to the forest they saw Weevil a bit ahead of them, Joey gritted his teeth, "Damn it, he might get away if this keeps up. Damn that Pegasus, why did he decide to make the whole island the battlefield?"

Yugi narrowed his eyes. That was something he had been wondering about himself since Pegasus mentioned it, why would they need an whole island as a battlefield just for a card game?

Yugi's eyes widened when he remembered when Weevil had asked him if he knew about the special rules that would be exclusive on this island. As they had walked across it, he had noticed the different sceneries on it.

Yugi narrowed his eyes, So that's it! That's what you meant, isn't it Weevil? He believed that he had figured the main reason for why they had decided to host the tournament on this island in the first place.

They soon reached a clearing and saw Weevil standing near the middle of it waiting for them with a smirk on his face. Weevil pointed at Yugi, "Alright Yugi, it's time for us to settle this, prepare yourself because I'm gonna take you down".

Yugi narrowed his eyes, "Think again Weevil, you're gonna pay for what you did on the boat. Now let's stop talking and let's just get this duel started".

Weevil chuckled , "I couldn't have said it better myself, it's time… to DUEL!" The ground began to shake after he said it. The gang then got shocked as they saw how a dueling arena appeared out of the ground.

Joey had a shocked expression, "Are you trying to tell me that they have dueling arenas spread out all over the island?"

Weevil just stared in to Yugi's eyes with a smirk, "Now let's do this Yugi". Weevil then ran over to the red platform and jumped up on it and it got lifted up to the dueling table.

Yugi then walked over to the blue platform and got up on it and it got lifted up to the dueling table.

Weevil chuckled as he stared at Yugi, "I noticed that you only have one star chip left Yugi, so I guess that means that I'll get the pleasure of eliminating you from the tournament, and once you're gone, the other's chips will be easy picking". Weevil said while he grabbed one star chip in the ring of his glove in order to pull it out.

Yugi however held up his star chip, "Not if I take both of yours first". Weevil stopped shocked and looked at Yugi for a few seconds before he started laughing, "And why would I bet both of my star chips while you only have one?"

Yugi narrowed his eyes while he opened his deck box, "Because if you do, I'll bet my life as a duelist". He then held up his deck, "My whole Duel Monsters deck".

A cruel smirk appeared on Weevil's face when he heard that, "Oh really? How interesting, alright I accept that deal, however it's a shame, if I had known this would happen, I wouldn't have gotten rid of Exodia".

Joey, Tristan and Tea got angry expression when they heard that part and Joey held up his right fist, "Crush him like the tiny little bug he is Yugi!" He really wanted Weevil to be put in his place.

Weevil put down both of his star chips on the table while Yugi put down his one. Weevil then looked at the side of the table with a smirk and pressed a button, "And since I betted one more star chip than you, I choose that we will use the first of the special rule based on the star chips".

Yugi narrowed his eyes, "And what rule is that?" However he could tell from the tone of Weevil's voice and his expression that he had no intention of telling him.

Weevil chuckled, "Oh, you'll find out soon enough Yugi, now let's begin". Yugi narrowed his eyes since he suspected that Weevil would do this.

Joey gritted his teeth, "So he really knows what the special rules are, and by not telling Yugi, he will get an advantage from the beginning". Tea and Tristan got troubled expressions since they knew that he was right.

Yugi and Weevil placed down their decks and both drew their first five cards and the holographic display system got activated and Yugi narrowed his eyes when he noticed that the field they were playing on looked exactly like the surrounding area, which confirmed his suspicions.

Yugi placed his fingers on his deck, "I'll go first". Weevil just shrugged his shoulders, not caring and Yugi drew his next card and looked at it. He then looked at his hand before he had placed the card he had drawn in his hand before he grabbed another one.

"I place one monster face down in defense mode and end my turn". He placed a monster face down in defense mode and a spot in front of him lit up.

Weevil chuckled as he drew his next card, "That's all? I expected more from the great Yugi Muto that defeated Kaiba. I guess you really aren't much of a threat without Exodia". Yugi tried to keep himself from smiling.

Weevil then revealed the card he had drawn and it was a golden ladybug with zero attack and defense points, "First, since it's my standby phase, I can reveal the Golden Ladybug I just drew, you see, once per turn I can reveal Golden Ladybug during my standby phase in order to gain 500 life points, also this card will remain revealed until the end phase of my turn". Weevil LP: 4000-4500.

Weevil then placed Golden Ladybug in his hand with the image towards Yugi and then grabbed another, "And next, I summon Dungeon Worm in attack mode". A large brown worm appeared with spikes surrounding its head and had a large round mouth with sharp teeth in it appeared on the field, Atk: 1800.

Yugi narrowed his eyes, "Hold on, Dungeon Worm is a level 5 normal monster. How did you just summon him like that?" However he had a feeling that he knew how.

Weevil chuckled, "It's simple Yugi, the rule that I activated since I offered one more star chip is that all level 5 or higher monsters we summon needs one less sacrifice than normal, which means that level 5 and 6 monsters can be normal summoned directly to the field".

Weevil then pointed at Dungeon Worm, "And not only that, based on the field your playing on, the monster that belongs to the field will gain a field power bonus of 30% of their attack and defense points, and since we're in the forest, Dungeon Worm now gets a field power bonus". Dungeon Worm, Atk & Def: 1800-2340/1500-1950.

Joey gritted his teeth when he saw this, "Are you serious? So that's why that little bug brought us all in to the forest, so that his monsters would get a power boost from the forest". He was troubled since he knew that Yugi barely had any monsters that belonged to the forest field.

Weevil chuckled as he looked at Yugi, "Yugi, if you had been smart enough to find out about the new rules ahead of everyone else like I did, then you might not have fallen in to my trap again, and now…" Weevil pointed at Yugi's face down monster, "Attack his face down monster Dungeon Worm".

Dungeon Worm took and dug itself down in to the ground. A few seconds later the ground underneath Yugi's defense position monster and Dungeon Worm appeared out of the ground and caught Yugi's monster that got revealed in his mouth.

Weevil had a confident expression on his field until he saw that Dungeon Worm was struggling, then a large stone creature with a weapon that was a long staff with a bent hammer on each side of it slowly moved out of his mouth.

Weevil looked on shocked until he heard Yugi chuckle. He looked at Yugi who had a smile on his face, "You should take a closer look on this field Weevil, because a small piece of it is wasteland, and rock monsters, like my Sentry Soldier of Stone, feels right at home in the wasteland, which means that he gains a field power bonus as well". Sentry Soldier of Stone, Atk & Def: 1300-1690/2000-2600.

Weevil then watched how Sentry Soldier of Stone got out of Dungeon Worm's mouth and jumped off of him and then slammed him with his weapon, sending him flying back to Weevil's field, Weevil LP: 4500-4240.

Weevil gritted his teeth and glared at Yugi while Sentry Solder of Stone landed in front of him and then went down on a knee, "Don't tell me that you figured out about the field power bonus when you saw this field?"

Yugi smiled at him, "Well, I had been wondering why the tournament was being held on an island instead on the mainland, however after remembering what you said to me on the boat, as well as seeing the different sceneries, I figured that the rule Pegasus mention must've been that the different types of monsters would have some kind of advantage on a field that they belonged to. Like the forest for your insects, and the wasteland for my Sentry Soldier of Stone".

Weevil lowered his head and chuckled. He then looked up at Yugi with a smirk, "You're really clever to have figured that out like that, however it won't help you, I will still defeat you".

Weevil then grabbed Golden Ladybug and turned the card I around, "I end my turn now, your move Yugi".

Yugi placed his fingers on his deck and drew his next card and looked at it, a smirk appeared on his face. Yugi looked up, "Weevil, thanks for showing me that we can just summoned level 5 and 6 monsters without sacrificing anything".

Yugi turned around the card he was holding, "I summon Chaos Command Magician in attack mode". A magician dressed in green and yellow with a hat with a bent spiky top as well as a spiky back with a staff in his right hand appeared on the field, Atk: 2400.

Weevil gritted his teeth when he saw the high level spellcaster appear. Yugi then grabbed another card in his hand, "And next, I equip him with Big Bang Shot, which means that not only does he gain 400 attack points, but he can now also inflict piercing damage". Chaos Command Magician spun his staff before he held it in front of him, Atk: 2400-2800.

Weevil gritted his teeth, "You're magician has 2800 attack points now?" Chaos Command Magician would've been able to destroy Dungeon Worm anyway, but now he would take more damage.

Yugi grabbed Sentry Solder of Stone's card, "And next, I switch Sentry Soldier of Stone to attack mode". Sentry Solder of Stone stood up and grabbed his weapon with both hands.

Yugi then pointed at Dungeon Worm, "Now Chas Command Magician, attack his Dungeon Worm with Chaos Blast". Chaos Command Magician pointed his staff at Dungeon Worm and fired a blast of dark energy towards him and destroyed him, which caused Weevil to shield his face, Weevil LP: 4240-3780.

Yugi then pointed at Weevil, "And next, I attack your life points directly with Sentry Soldier of Stone". Sentry Soldier of Stone swung his weapon and hit Weevil's platform, making him shield his face again, Weevil LP: 3780-2090.

Joey got a huge smile on his face, "Alright! Yugi has just taken a big lead". Tea and Tristan also had smiles on their faces and nodded their head excited.

Yugi looked at his hand before he looked at Weevil, "I now end my turn, so let's see what you can do Weevil".

Weevil narrowed his eyes and drew his next card and looked at it, a smirk appeared on his face, he then grabbed a card in his hand and revealed it and it was Golden Ladybug, "Now by revealing Golden Ladybug, I once again gain 500 life points". Weevil LP: 2090-2590.

Weevil then placed Golden Ladybug back in to his hand revealed while he showed that the card he had just drawn was Mystical Space Typhoon, "And next, I'll use my Mystical Space Typhoon to destroy your Big Bang Shot".

Weevil's smirk grew bigger when he saw the troubled expression on Yugi's face, "I see that you know what this means. When Big Bang Shot leaves the field, the monster it was equipped to is removed from the game".

Yugi gritted his teeth troubled and placed Big Bang Shot in to his graveyard before he placed Chaos Command Magician next to his graveyard.

Weevil then grabbed another card in his hand and placed it face down in defense mode, "And next, I place one monster face down and end my turn". A spot in front of him lit up and he turned Golden Ladybug around again.

Yugi placed his fingers on his deck and drew his next card, he narrowed his eyes as he looked at Weevil's face down monster, he knew that Weevil had monsters that could destroy his Sentry Soldier of Stone, but he didn't attack him, could it mean that he only had monsters with low attack points or was he after something else?

Yugi revealed the card he had drawn, "Next, I summon my Curse of Dragon in attack mode". A yellow dragon with a long tail without arms or legs appeared on the field with a screech, Atk: 2000.

Yugi looked at the face down monster, it might be a trap, but he still had to attack in order to win, Yugi then pointed at the face down monster, "Now Curse of Dragon, attack his face down monster with Dragon Flame!" Curse of Dragon screeched again before he unleashed a stream of flames from his mouth which enveloped the face down monster.

However after a few seconds, a green monster with red eyes and horns with fangs, and claws on its hands and feet, the bug monster clung to Sentry Soldier of Stone who struggled against it for a few seconds before both of them disappeared.

Yugi had a shocked expression on his face, "You're face down monster was a Man-Eater Bug?" Weevil didn't answer him and just chuckled.

Tea looked at Joey, "What does Man-Eater Bug do?" Tristan also looked at Joey with a confused expression on his face. However Joey just looked at them and shrugged his shoulders, he had no idea either.

Yugi looked at them, "When Man-Eater Bug is changed from face down to face up, you can destroy one monster on the field". The gang got a look of understanding on their faces.

Yugi looked at the cards in his hand before he grabbed one of them, "I end my turn by placing one card face down". The slot behind Curse of Dragon lit up. Yugi then look at Weevil, "It's your turn now Weevil".

Two of the cards in his hand were Silent Swordsman as well as a spell card that could only be used with him, which meant that he couldn't use them right now. He also had the equip spell card Sword of Dark Destruction in his hand and he had just placed the trap card Disgraceful Charity face down. He couldn't use it right now, however he needed to draw just one of three cards he had that would allow him to use it.

Weevil took and drew his next card before he once again grabbed and revealed his Golden Ladybug, Weevil LP: 2590-3090. Weevil then placed Golden Ladybug revealed in his hand and looked at the card he had just drawn.

Weevil revealed the card he had drawn, "Now I summon Armored Bee in attack mode". Armored Bee then appeared on the field, Atk: 1600.

Weevil then pointed at Armored Bee, "And now, he gains a field power bonus from the forest". Armored Bee, Atk & Def: 1600-2080/1200-1560.

Weevil then grabbed another card in his hand and revealed it, "And next, I equip Insect Armor with Laser Cannon to my Armor Bee". The Insect Armor with Laser Cannon then appeared on the Armored Bee, Atk: 2080-2780.

Yugi gritted his teeth, this was the combo that Weevil had used against Rex in the final match of the National Championship, which meant that Yugi knew what Weevil was about to do next.

Weevil then pointed at Curse of Dragon, "And next I activate Armored Bee's special ability, which means that your Curse of Dragon's attack points are cut in half until the end phase of this turn". Armored Bee fired a stinger at Curse of Dragon and it got stuck in his body, caused the dragon to screech in pain, Atk: 2000-1000.

Weevil then held out his hand with a smirk on his face, "And now Armored Bee, attack his Curse of Dragon with your Laser Cannon!" At Weevil's command, Armored Bee aimed his laser cannon at Curse of Dragon and then fired a beam from it that hit the dragon and destroyed him, causing Yugi to shield his face, Yugi LP: 4000-2220.

Joey gritted his teeth when he saw this, "Damn it, that bastard Weevil managed to turn things around".

Tea looked at him, "He might have the advantage right now, however I know that Yugi will beat him, he has to if he's going to save Mr Muto".

Weevil looked at Yugi while he turned around Golden Ladybug, "I end my turn now, now make your move Yugi, even though it won't help you".

Yugi looked at his deck, He's wrong, I believe in my deck, and I know that it will help me now. Yugi thought to himself while he placed his fingers on his deck.

"My turn now, I draw". Yugi drew his next card and looked at it. He then revealed the card to be a spell card with the image of an angel with three glowing cards in her hands, "I activate the spell card Graceful Charity, which means I can draw three cards as long as I discard two from my hand".

Yugi drew three more cards and looked at them, he narrowed his eyes, he then grabbed one of them and one of them he had drawn and placed them in his graveyard.

However Yugi then grabbed his face down card and flipped it face up, "And next, I activate Disgraceful Charity, which means that every card was discarded this turn is returned to our hands".

Yugi then grabbed the two cards he had just discarded. He then placed one of them in his hand before he revealed the other card, "And next I summon my Giant Soldier of Stone in defense mode".

A giant stone monster that looked pretty similar to Sentry Soldier of Stone appeared on a knee on the field with his right arm in front of him, Atk & Def: 1300-1690/2000-2600.

Yugi then took and grabbed Sentry Soldier of Stone that were in his graveyard and revealed it, "And next, I activate Sentry Soldier of Stone's special ability! Once per turn, if I only have rock monsters on my field, I can special summon Sentry Soldier of Stone from my graveyard".

Sentry Soldier then appeared on a knee next to Giant Soldier of Stone, he then pulled out two stone axes and slammed the handles together. The handles joined together and formed a staff and the blades changes shapes to a bent bow shape, Atk & Def: 1300-1690/2000-2600.

Yugi then looked at his hand and grabbed a card in it, "Now I end my turn by placing this card face down". He placed it face down after saying that and the spot behind Giant Soldier of Stone lit up.

Weevil chuckled, "What's this? Is defending yourself the only thing you can do? Oh well, then I guess that this duel won't last much longer, it's my turn, I draw".

Weevil drew his next card before he once again revealed Golden Ladybug and placed it back in his hand revealed, Weevil LP: 3090-3590. Weevil looked at the card he had just drawn, "I activate Pot of Greed which lets me draw two more cards".

Weevil drew two more cards and looked at them. A smirk appeared on his face, "I have been waiting for this moment". Weevil then placed them in his hand before he grabbed another card in his hand, "Now I activate the spell card Worm Bait, which lets me special summon two Worm Tokens in defense mode". Then two small black and red worms with white faces appeared on the field next to Armored Bee, Def x 2: 0.

Weevil then grabbed one of the cards he had drawn and held it up, "The side effect of Worm Bait is that I can't summon level 3 or 4 monsters, however that's not what I've planned. I now sacrifice one of my Worm Tokens in order to summon my Insect Queen".

One of the tokens disappeared and an insect with a large red lower half and a smaller upper body appeared on the field, Atk: 2200.

Weevil chuckled, "Say hello to the queen of all insects, and thanks to the forest, she's even stronger". Insect Queen, Atk & Def: 2200-2860/2400-3120.

Weevil's smirk then grew bigger as he continued, "And not only that, but she also gains 200 attack points for every insect monster on the field, which means she now gains 600 more points". Insect Queen, Atk: 2860-3460.

Joey gritted his teeth troubled when he saw Insect Queen's attack points, "That freak has 3460 attack points?" That meant that meant that Weevil would be able to destroy both of Yugi's Stone Soldiers.

Weevil then pointed at Sentry Soldier of Stone, "And now, Insect Queen will attack your Sentry Soldier of Stone, however in order for her to attack, I need to sacrifice a monster, so now I sacrifice my Worm Token so my Queen can attack".

Insect Queen then lowered her head and grabbed the Worm Token with her mouth and then to the gangs shock and horror began to slowly devour it, Insect Queen, Atk: 3460-3260.

Insect Queen then unleashed a purple blast of energy towards Sentry Soldier of Stone.

However Weevil then noticed the smirk on Yugi's face. Yugi then grabbed his face down card, "Weevil, by declaring your attack, my face down can be activated".

Weevil got a horrified expression on his face, "No, not another trap card".

Yugi's smirk only grew as he flipped his face down card face up, "That's right, say hello to my Blazing Mirror Force trap card!" A red force field appeared in front of Sentry Soldier of Stone and Insect Queen's attack hit it.

Yugi looked at Weevil who had a worried expression, "Now this card stops your attack and then all your monsters in attack mode will be destroyed and then both of us takes damage equal to half of your destroyed monsters original attack points".

Insect Queen's attack got absorbed by the red barrier before two red beams shot out from it and went straight through Insect Queen and Armored Bee, destroying them both. Yugi LP: 2220-320. Weevil LP: 3590-1690.

The gang had shocked expressions on their faces. Tea then looked at Joey and Tristan, "Why would Yugi use a trap card that took away most of his remaining life points?"

Tristan shrugged his shoulders, no idea either. Both of them then looked at Joey who looked at Yugi while he narrowed his eyes, "I have no idea, but I know that Yugi wouldn't do something like this without a plan in mind". Tea and Tristan calmed down a little when they heard the confidence in Joey's voice and nodded their heads.

Weevil gritted his teeth and looked at his hand before he grabbed a card in it, "I place one card face down and end my turn". He placed it face down on the table and a spot in front of him lit up.

Yugi drew his next card and looked at it before he revealed that it was Pot of Greed, "Now it's my turn to activate Pot of Greed, which means I can draw two more cards".

Yugi drew two more cards and looked at them. He narrowed his eyes before he placed them in his hand before he grabbed another one while he looked at Sentry Soldier of Stone, "I'm sorry about this Sentry Soldier of Stone, but don't worry, you will soon be back".

Yugi revealed a spell card with the image of a massive wok, "Now I activate Mystik Wok, and so by sacrificing my Sentry Soldier of Stone, I'll gain life points equal to his attack or defense points, and I choose his 2600 defense points".

Sentry Soldier of Stone then shattered and Yugi was surrounded by a blue aura, Yugi LP: 320-2920. Yugi then pointed at Giant Soldier of Stone, "And next, since I have Giant Soldier of Stone, I can bring back Sentry Soldier of Stone in attack mode". Sentry Soldier of Stone then once again reappeared on the field and joined together his axes once again, Atk & Def: 1300-1690/2000-2600.

Yugi then grabbed Giant Soldier of Stone's card, "And next, I switch my Giant Soldier of Stone to attack mode". Giant Soldier of Stone then rose up on his feet next to Sentry Soldier of Stone.

Yugi narrowed his eyes while he looked at Weevil's face down card, Weevil only has 1690 life points left, which means that either of my Stone Soldiers will be able to wipe out his life points, which means that his face down card will activate the moment I declare an attack, that I know. So if it is a card that will destroy all of my monsters, than I should wait to summon another monster until after I know what it is. Yugi had drawn another monster that he could summon, but decided to play it safe for now.

Yugi pointed at Weevil, "Now Sentry Soldier of Stone, attack his life points directly!" Sentry Soldier swung his weapon at Weevil's platform.

However Weevil flipped his face down card face up and it was a trap card with the image of three dark spiders coming out of a large white egg, "Not so fast, I now activate my trap card Spider Egg! Now if you declare an direct attack while I have three or more insect monsters in my graveyard, I negate the attack and then I can special summon three Spider Tokens in attack mode". A large white egg appeared in front of Weevil and blocked Sentry Soldier of Stone's attack and then it got divided in to three pieces and became three spiders, Atk x 3: 100.

Yugi raised an eyebrow, he had expected it to be a card to either prevent him from attacking or that it would destroy his monsters. However not only could he still attack, but Weevil had just summoned three weak tokens in attack mode.

Yugi then pointed at Weevil's first Spider Token, "Giant Soldier of Stone, attack his first Spider Token". At Yugi's command, Giant Soldier of Stone pulled out the stone sword he had on his back and slashed the first Spider Token and destroyed it, Weevil LP: 1690-100.

Yugi then looked at his hand and then grabbed one of the two cards he had just drawn, "I end my turn by summoning Komori Dragon in attack mode". Komori Dragon then appeared on the field with a roar, Atk: 1500.

Weevil looked at his hand troubled since he only had two cards in his hand right now, one being Golden Ladybug and the other one he couldn't even use right now, which meant that unless he drew a monster or a spell or trap that could save him, he would have to summon Golden Ladybug to defend himself.

Weevil moved his hand towards his deck with a nervous expression on his face, however his hand stopped over it when he heard Yugi's voice, "I expected more from you Weevil".

Weevil looked up with a shocked and angry expression on his face and saw that Yugi was looking at him with a confused expression on his face, "And what's that supposed to mean Yugi?"

Yugi just slightly narrowed his eyes before he spoke with thoughtful tone, "Well, I just think that you should be stronger than this if you are the National Champion". Weevil gritted his teeth when he heard that.

Joey narrowed his eyes thoughtful when he heard what Yugi said, "You know, Yugi is right, I mean, he recklessly attacked even though Yugi had placed a card face down just the turn before, even an amateur like me would've at least suspected that it was a trap card, and I doubt that the National Champion would do such a simple mistake".

Yugi looked at Weevil with a suspicious expression, "You always seemed to have a pretty good counter for any of your opponent's deck, which made me think that you had a deck that prepared for most opponents, however, could it be that you managed to learn what your opponent would use, and then either prepare your deck or mess with their decks?" The frustrated expression that appeared on his face told them that Yugi had hit the bullseye

Joey got a frustrated expression on his face, "Hold on, you mean he won most of those matches by cheating? I should've guessed that considering what he did on the boat".

Weevil looked at Joey with a smirk, "I don't think of it as cheating, to me, it's more like preparing ahead of time". Tea, Tristan and Joey gritted their teeth in anger after hearing Weevil say that.

Weevil then looked at Yugi who glared at him and continued, "Now that this annoying conversation is over, let's continue, it's my turn". He then drew his next card before he once again revealed Golden Ladybug before placing it revealed in his hand, Weevil LP: 100-600.

Weevil looked at the card he had just drawn, he then placed it face down in defense mode, "Now place one monster face down in defense mode and then I end my turn by switching both of my Spider Tokens to defense mode". The spot next to one of the Spider Tokens lit up and then both of the Spider Tokens went in to defense mode, Def x 2: 100.

Yugi narrowed his eyes, "It's my move then, I draw". Yugi drew his next card and saw that he had drawn his Swords of Revealing Light. He knew that he didn't need it right now since Weevil didn't have anything strong enough to attack him.

Yugi placed his Sword of Revealing Light in his hand, he then pointed at one of his Spider Tokens, "Now Komori Dragon, attack his second Spider Token". Komori Dragon opened his mouth and unleashed a stream of flames that hit the Spider Token and destroyed it.

Yugi then pointed at the third Spider Token, "And next, Sentry Soldier of Stone, attack his final Spider Token". Sentry Soldier of Stone slammed his weapon in to the third Spider Token and destroyed it.

Yugi then looked at Giant Soldier of Stone, "Alright Giant Soldier of Stone, attack his face down monster now". Giant Soldier of Stone lifted his sword and slammed it in to the lit up spot. However what looked like a leech appeared and then jumped up and wrapped itself around Giant Soldier of Stone before it took and pushed the top of its tail in to his head.

Weevil chuckled when he saw Yugi's shocked expression, "The face down monster was Kiseitai, if this card is attacked while face down, it becomes equipped to the monster that attacked it, then during each one of your standby phases I'll gain life points equal to half of the equipped monster's attack points".

Yugi gritted his teeth frustrated. He knew that unless he got rid of Giant Soldier of Stone, Weevil would just keep gaining life points from him. Yugi looked at his hand, the only two cards he could use right now was Swords of Revealing Light which wouldn't help him that much right now, after that he had the ritual monster Magician of Chaos in his hand, which he couldn't use right now anyway.

Yugi looked at Weevil, "I end my turn, now make your move Weevil". He didn't like the situation he was in right now, if Weevil drew a card that was powerful enough, he would be in trouble.

Weevil then placed his fingers on his deck, "It's my turn, I draw". Weevil drew his next card before he once again revealed Golden Ladybug and placed it back in his hand revealed, Weevil LP: 600-1100.

Weevil looked at the card he had just drawn and a smirk appeared on his face, "Alright, now I summon my Petit Moth in defense mode", a small green larvae then appeared on the field, Atk & Def: 300-390/200-260.

Yugi narrowed his eyes, He just summoned a Petit Moth? Anyone of my three monsters can easily crush it and then the other two can wipe out the rest of his life points.

Yami appeared next to Yugi with a cautious expression on his face, "Don't let your guard down Yugi, I'm sure Weevil has something else planned in mind since he also knows that you can easily destroy his Petit Moth". Yugi looked at Yami slightly and saw the cautious expression on his face. He looked at Weevil and nodded the confident expression on his face. Yugi narrowed his eyes and realized that Yami was right, Weevil had something else planned as well.

Weevil grabbed the remaining unknown card in his hand, "And next, I equip my Petit Moth with the terrifying Cocoon of Evolution". Yugi and the others then watched in shock as Petit Moth wrapped itself inside of a pink cocoon, Def: 2000-2600.

Joey narrowed his eyes, "Hold on, what's going on? Why did Petit Moth get wrapped in to that cocoon?" Tea and Tristan looked at each other, neither of them had no idea either.

However at that moment they heard a confident laugh behind them. All three of them turned around and both Joey and Tristan blushed when they saw Mai Valentine coming towards them.

Mai looked at the duel with a smirk, more correctly, she looked at Yugi, "Well well, it looks like little Yugi is in trouble now, after all, if he doesn't destroy Cocoon of Evolution soon enough, then he'll have to face Weevil's strongest monster".

Tea gritted her teeth over the flirty tone Mai had used when she said little Yugi, however she ignored that since she was concerned about what had said after that, "What do you mean his strongest monster? What kind of monster is that?"

However Mai didn't answer and just walked past Tea and looked at Yugi with interest, "If we're lucky, maybe we'll get to see it". Tea, Tristan and Joey looked at each other, because unlike Mai, the three of them hoped that Weevil WOULDN'T be able to summon the monster she was talking about.

Weevil chuckled when he saw Yugi's concerned expression, "I can see that you knows what this means, and you're right Yugi. After now six turns has passed, I can special summon my Perfectly Ultimate Great Moth".

Yugi gritted his teeth and narrowed his eyes, If he managed to summon his Perfectly Ultimate Great Moth, or even just its fourth turn form, I'll be in trouble, however in order to summon either form of his Great Moth, he needs to draw them first.

Weevil then grabbed Golden Ladybug and turned it around, "I end my turn, it's your now Yugi".

Yugi gritted his teeth since he knew what would happen the moment after he drew his next card, however he couldn't do anything about it. Yugi then took and drew his next card and looked at it, then he heard a groan from Giant Soldier of Stone as Kiseitai drained him of some energy, Weevil LP: 1100-1945.

Yugi narrowed his eyes, the card he had drawn was Polymerization, which was useless for him right now, Yugi placed the card in his hand, "I can't do anything, so I end my turn".

Weevil chuckled satisfied when he heard that and drew his next card before he once again revealed Golden Ladybug in his hand, Weevil LP: 1945-2445.

Weevil looked at the card he had just drawn, before he placed it in his hand, "Now there is only four turns left before I can summon my Perfectly Ultimate Great Moth, so prepare yourself to face a monster unlike anything you have ever seen before".

Weevil then grabbed Golden Ladybug and turned it around, "I end my turn, so make your move Yugi".

Yugi was troubled, he knew that Weevil was trying to make the turns go so that he would eventually draw either forms of his Great Moth, Yugi knew that he had to destroy that Cocoon of Evolution soon or he would be in serious trouble.

Yugi drew his next card and Giant Soldier of the Stone groaned in pain as more of his energy was drained, Weevil LP: 2445-3290.

Joey gritted his teeth, "Damn it! That damn bug Weevil has almost regained all of his life points due to his two monsters abilities". He hoped that Yugi would be able to get rid of Giant Soldier of Stone since that would also get rid of Kiseitai.

Yugi looked at the card he had drawn and a smile appeared on his face, "Alright, now to the special rules, I summon my Catapult Turtle in defense mode without sacrificing anything".

A large mechanical looking turtle with a launching pad on his back appeared on the field, Def: 2000.

Yugi looked at Giant Soldier of Stone with a troubled expression, "Sorry about this Stone Soldier, but I can't let him gain more life points by draining them from you".

Yugi grabbed Giant Soldier of Stone's card and held it up, "Once per turn, I can sacrifice one monster on my field in order to inflict half of that monster's attack points to my opponent as direct damage, and by sacrificing my Giant Soldier of Stone, I'll also get rid of your Kiseitai".

Giant Soldier of Stone then vanished for a second before he appeared on top on Catapult Turtle. Catapult Turtle then growled as the launch pad was activated and sent Giant Soldier of Stone who turned in an orb of energy towards Weevil and hit his platform, sending him flying in to the railing behind him, Weevil LP: 3290-2445.

Yugi then grabbed both Komori Dragon and Sentry Soldier of Stone, "Next I put both my Sentry Soldier and Komori Dragon in to defense mode". Sentry Soldier of Stone went down on a knee with his weapon in front of himself and Komori Dragon lowered his head, Def: 1200.

Yugi looked at Weevil, "And with that, I end my turn, so make your move Weevil".

Weevil narrowed his eyes before he drew his next card before he once again placed Golden Ladybug revealed in his hand, Weevil LP: 2445-2945. Weevil looked at the card and then placed it face down, "I place one card face down and then I end my turn". The spot behind Cocoon of Evolution lit up and Weevil turned Golden Ladybug around.

Yugi placed his fingers on his deck, "It's my turn then". He drew his next card and looked at it, a smile then appeared on his face, "Now I sacrifice my Komori Dragon in order to summon Dark Magician in attack mode". Komori Dragon then vanished and Dark Magician then appeared, Atk: 2500.

Weevil got a shocked expression on his face for a second before a smirk appeared on his face, "You have a Dark Magician huh? That's quite a powerful rare card, I can't wait until it's mine".

Yugi narrowed his eyes and grabbed a card in his hand, "Not gonna happen! Next I equip him with the spell card Sword of Dark Destruction., which will increase his attack points by 400 but also decrease his defense points by 200".

A demonic looking sword with a red blade appeared in Dark Magician's left hand, Atk & Def: 2500-2900/2100-1900.

Weevil widened his eyes in shock, "2900 attack points?! He's stronger than my Cocoon of Evolution now!" Yugi however ignored Weevil and just looked at his face down card, he was sure that it were a trap card that would stop his attack, however he had no choice but to try and attack.

Yugi pointed at Cocoon of Evolution, "Now Dark Magician, attack his Cocoon of Evolution". Dark Magician crossed his staff and the Sword of Dark Destruction while dark energy gathered around the red blade while magical energy gathered at the top of the staff.

However Weevil flipped his face down card face up with a smirk, "Not so fast, I activate my trap card Nightmare Wheel". Suddenly two cuffs got wrapped around Dark Magician's wrists and pulled him up on a wheel with a large skeleton head behind it with its jaws opened.

Yugi got a shocked expression on his face before he looked at Weevil who chuckled, "Now as long as your Dark Magician is trapped in my Nightmare Wheel, he can't change his position or attack, also during each one of my standby phases, you'll lose 500 life points. However if your Dark Magician leaves the field, then Nightmare Wheel will be destroyed".

Yugi gritted his teeth when he heard that, he looked at the cards in his hand, he didn't have anything that could destroy the Nightmare Wheel right now, he could use Catapult Turtle's special ability to destroy Dark Magician in order to get rid of Nightmare Wheel and to inflict 1450 points of damage to Weevil, however he didn't want to do that to his Dark Magician.

He then looked at his Magician of Chaos, he wanted to try and summon him, however he needed another card before he could do that, which meant that he needed to wait.

Yugi then grabbed and held up Sentry Soldier of Stone, "Now I activate the special ability of my Catapult Turtle once again, so by sacrificing Sentry Soldier of Stone, you'll take damage equal to half of his attack points".

Sentry Soldier of Stone then disappeared and then reappeared on the launching pad on Catapult Turtle's back before it launched him and he turned in to an orb of energy that then hit Weevil's platform, forcing Weevil to grab a hold of the platform in order to endure the shockwaves, Weevil LP: 2945-2100.

Yugi then looked at Weevil, "And with that, I end my turn, so make your move Weevil".

Weevil narrowed his eyes, "It's my move then, I draw'. He drew his next card and looked at it, then he once again placed Golden Ladybug revealed in his hand, Weevil LP: 2100-2600.

The Wheel that Dark Magician was pinned to then began spinning against his back, causing him to groan in pain, Yugi LP: 2920-2420.

Weevil looked at the card he had drawn, he narrowed his eyes before he looked at Yugi, "Now it's only three turns left before I can summon my Perfectly Ultimate Great Moth, but for now, I'll just wait, so I end my turn". After saying that, Weevil turned Golden Ladybug around.

Yugi placed his fingers on his deck, "Alright, I draw". Yugi drew his next card and looked at it, "Now I summon my Big Shield Gardna in attack mode". Big Shield Gardna then appeared on the field with his shield at his side, Atk: 100.

Weevil narrowed his eyes, "Why would you summon such a weak monster in attack mode?" Weevil was feeling really suspicious about this.

Yugi then grabbed another card in his hand, "Next, I sacrifice my Big Shield Gardna in order to special summon Silent Swordsman in attack mode". Big Shield Gardna disappeared and a warrior with blue and silver armor with a large sword appeared on the field, Atk: 1000.

Yugi then grabbed one of his remaining three cards in his hand and placed it face down, "Next, I end my turn by placing one card face down". The spot behind Silent Swordsman then lit up as his turn ended.

Weevil looked at Silent Swordsman with a suspicious expression on his face, he was sure that Silent Swordsman must have some kind of special ability, however he wasn't sure what it was.

Weevil then took and drew his next card before he once again placed Golden Ladybug revealed in his hand, Weevil LP: 2600-3100. The Nightmare Wheel then began to spin once again, Yugi LP: 2420-1920.

However at that moment, Silent Swordsman got surrounded by a bright aura, Atk: 1000-1500.

Weevil got a shocked expression on his face before he looked at Yugi, "Why did your Swordsman just gain attack points?"

Yugi got a smirk on his face, "During each one of our standby phases, Silent Swordsman gains 500 attack points". Weevil gritted his teeth troubled when he heard that, that meant that during Yugi's standby phase, Silent Swordsman's attack points would become 2000, then during his next standby phase, he would have 2500. After Yugi's second standby phase from now Silent Swordsman would be powerful enough to destroy his Cocoon of Evolution, which meant that he wouldn't be able to summon his Perfectly Ultimate Great Moth.

Weevil looked at the card he had just drawn, "Now I summon my Leghul in attack mode". A small purple centipede appeared on the field, Atk & Def: 300-390/350-455.

Weevil then grabbed the other remaining unknown card in his hand, "And next, I activate the equip spell Lev. 2 Power Boost to my Leghul in order to increase his attack by 1200 and his defense by 200". Two turbines then appeared on the back of Leghul, Atk & Def: 390-1590/455-655.

Weevil then pointed at Yugi, "And next thanks to Leghul's special ability, he can attack your life points directly, now go Leghul". Leghul then jumped up in the air above Yugi's monster and unleashed strong winds from the turbines on his back that hit Yugi's platform, Yugi LP: 1920-330.

Weevil let out a chuckle as he looked at Yugi with a confident smirk on his face, "Now you're in trouble, unless you either get rid of my Nightmare Wheel or your Dark Magician, you'll lose the rest of your life points during my next standby phase, I end my turn now". He turned around his Golden Ladybug as his turn ended.

Tea got a worried expression, "Oh no! Yugi must get rid of Dark Magician as soon as possible". For her, the best way she could see would be using Catapult Turtle to get rid of Dark Magician and inflict some more damage.

However Joey shook his head, "I don't think he's gonna do that. I can tell by looking at his face that he's got something planned, only he's not able to do it right now, I guess he's missing a card or something like that, however as long as he believes in his deck, I know that it will answer him and give him the card he need".

However they heard a mocking laugh next to them after he said that. They looked at Mai who looked at them with a mocking smirk on her face, "You can't be serious, by believing in his deck, it will answer him? Drawing cards are just based on luck".

However Joey just narrowed his eyes and turned back to the duel, he couldn't wait to see Mai's expression after Yugi proved her wrong.

Yugi looked at his deck with a serious expression, he knew that unless he drew Chaos Form or one of his spell or trap destruction cards he would have to use Catapult Turtle's effect on Dark Magician. However he had faith, I know that my deck will answer me, come on heart of the cards, guide me.

Yugi placed his fingers on his deck and slowly drew his next card and Silent Swordsman was once again surrounded by a bright aura, Atk: 1500-2000.

Yugi then looked at the card he had drawn. A smile appeared on his face, he then turned around the spell card and it was a spell card with the image of chains coming out of an orb of dark energy, "Now I activate the Ritual spell card Chaos Form, so now by sacrificing my Dark Magician, I can Ritual Summon Magician of Chaos in attack mode".

Dark Magician then broke free from the cuffs around his hands and then jumped in to a magical circle that appeared on the ground, chains then flew down in to the magical circle and up came a magician in dark blue and purple robes wrapped in chains, Atk: 2500.

However Magician of Chaos then got surrounded by a purple aura before he snapped the chains surrounding him.

Yugi looked at Weevil, "By tapping into the power of chaos, Dark Magician has reached a new level of power, also since Dark Magician has left the field, your Nightmare Wheel is also gone". Weevil gritted his teeth and then placed his Nightmare Wheel in his graveyard.

Yugi then pointed at Leghul, "Now Magician of Chaos, attack his Leghul with Chaos Force".

Magician of Chaos held out his want while a magical circle appeared around his feet, dark blue energy gathered at the top of his staff and he unleashed a magical blast from his staff that hit Leghul and destroyed him, Weevil LP: 3100-2190.

Yugi then looked at Weevil with a smirk, "And with that, I end my turn, so make your move Weevil".

Weevil narrowed his eyes with suspicion, Why didn't Yugi use his Catapult Turtle to sacrifice one of his monsters in order to inflict more damage to me? He didn't understand why Yugi hadn't since he would've sacrificed Magician of Chaos in order to inflict more damage if he had been in Yugi's situation.

Weevil placed his fingers on his deck, "It's my move now", he drew his next card before he once again placed Golden Ladybug revealed in his hand, Weevil LP: 2190-2690. Silent Swordsman then once again got surrounded by a bright aura, Atk: 2000-2500.

Weevil looked at his hand and gritted his teeth, the card he had drawn was his Flying Kamakiri #1 which wouldn't help him, which meant that he only had once choice to make now if he wanted to have a chance to win this duel.

Weevil grabbed a card in his hand, "Now since it's been four turns since my Cocoon of Evolution appeared, I can sacrifice it in order to special summon Great Moth from my hand".

The cocoon then cracked opened and a massive green moth with a horn on its head appeared out of it, Atk & Def: 2600-3380/2300-2500-3250.

Joey got a worried expression on his face, "His Moth didn't reach his final evolution but it still has 3380 attack points thanks to the field power bonus?" If Weevil attacked either Yugi's Silent Swordsman or his Magician of Chaos, Yugi would lose the rest of his life points.

Weevil chuckled with a cruel smirk on his face, "Well, this wasn't the way I planned to win, however I guess this will have to do, "Now Great Moth, attack his Silent Swordsman with Moth Hurricane". Winds started gathering at Great Moth's wings.

However Yugi flipped his face down card face up and it was a spell card with an image of Silent Swordsman slashing with his sword.

"Not so fast, I activate the spell card Silent Sword Slash! Now a Silent Swordsman monster on my field gains 1500 attack and defense points and he's also unaffected by card effects during the turn I activate Silent Sword Slash".

Weevil's eyes widened in shock when he heard that and saw Silent Swordsman slash with his sword a few times, Atk & Def: 2500-4000/1000-2500, "No! Now he's more powerful than my Great Moth!"

Yugi narrowed his eyes, "That's right, and while I could allow him to destroy your Great Moth, I had a plan for this situation. Now I activate Magician of Chaos's special ability, once per turn if a spell, trap or monster's special ability is activated, I can target one card on the field and destroy it, and I choose your Great Moth!"

Magician of Chaos then unleashed a blast of dark blue magical energy that hit Great Moth and destroyed him.

Weevil's arms fell to his sides, he was in a state of shock, "No way, my Great Moth, my previous Great Moth was…"

Weevil then looked at his hand, "I… I summon my Flying Kamakiri #1 in defense mode". A large green insect with four wings, four arms and two legs that appeared on a knee with its arms crossed, Atk & Def: 1400-1820/900-1170.

Yugi placed his fingers on his deck, "It's my turn, I draw". Yugi drew his next card and Silent Swordsman got surrounded by a bright aura, Atk: 4000-4500.

Yugi looked at the card and narrowed his eyes, he knew that he could end this by simply attack with his monsters, however he wanted to make Weevil pay for what he did on the boat.

Yugi then pointed at Flying Kamakiri #1, "And now I activate Magician of Chaos's special ability! Since my Silent Swordsman's special ability was activated, I can destroy your Flying Kamakiri #1". Magician of Chaos then unleashed a blast of magical energy towards Flying Kamakiri and destroyed him.

Weevil lowered his head, "If Flying Kamakiri #1 had been destroyed in battle, I could've special summoned a wind type monster with 1500 or less attack points in attack mode from my deck".

Yugi looked at him with a serious expression, "It wouldn't have saved you anyway Weevil, now Silent Swordsman, attack his life points directly with Silent Sword Slash". Silent Swordsman swung with his sword before he rushed towards Weevil and slammed his sword in to his platform, Weevil LP: 2690-0.

Weevil sank down on his knees with a disbelieving look in his eyes, "I can't believe this, I refuse to believe that I lost".

However Joey, Tristan and Tea was cheering loudly while Mai stared at Yugi with a shocked expression since she hadn't believed that Yugi would be able to defeat Weevil.

A while later Yugi and the gang was standing in front of Weevil who still had a expression of disbelief on his face, "But I'm the National Champion, the National Champion! I'm supposed to win this whole tournament and get the glory of being the first one to beat the creator of Duel Monsters".

Yugi looked at him with a serious expression, "And that's where we're different, you only fight for yourself, however we're fighting for people we care about, and that gives us strength". Yugi then revealed the three star chips in his hand, his own plus the two he had just won from Weevil before he began placing them in to his glove.

Weevil looked at Yugi with a look of despair on his face, "No, this can't be happening?" He just refused to believe that he had lost.

Joey who had had enough walked over to Weevil and looked down at him, "Stop complaining Underwood, you lost! Now get away from here and prepare to be sent home, but before that…"

Joey grabbed Weevil's glove and pulled it off of his arm before he placed it on his right arm, "I'll be taking this glove". He then placed his star chip in it.

A while later Yugi and the others got out of the forest, Yugi then stopped and looked at the castle, "We now have three star chips, but we still need to win seven more in order to get in to that castle".

Yami appeared next to him and also looked at the castle, "We will get ten star chips and get in to the castle and then we will win our way through the finals and face Pegasus, and once we beat him, grandpa will be back". Yugi nodded his head in agreement since he wasn't going to let anything stop him from saving his grandfather.
