Standing at the Duel Ring – where one of the players would stand – was a man that looked like Kaiba Seto. In normal human's eyes, they might believe that it was Seto, but because Yugi wasn't human, he immediately could tell that the Seto in there was a fake.
First, Yugi noticed that this Seto has a slight tan skin and there were some wrinkle below this Seto's eyes. Second, his way of standing was way too stiff for him to be Seto. Seto might be a strict business man with cold demeanor, but his way of moving always a regal one, not a stiff one. Third, this Seto has a malice aura surrounding him, while the real Seto would never have that kind of aura – even in anger. Last and the most important information, this Seto has a pair of Dark Blue – almost Black – eyes instead of piercing Ice Blue eyes like the real Seto.
"Yugi, now you will have to fight with Kaiba Seto." The man said before the fake Seto chuckled.
"Yugi." The fake Seto said darkly, "I will have my revenge".
Right after the fake Seto spoke up, the others – with the exception of Akefia – realized that this Seto was not Kaiba Seto at all. Mokuba and the rest – even though they only known Seto for a short time, again with the exception of Akefia – know that Seto would never talk to Yugi with that kind of face or tone, unless he was acting like that purposefully. Since there's no need for Seto to act like that at the moment though, the conclusion was clear, and that was this Seto was not the real Seto.
"Huh? Isn't he looks just like High Priest Seth?" Akefia commented suddenly, "Well, the ugly version I mean".
"High Priest Seth?" Mokuba and the rest, not including Yugi, asked in confusion with blinking eyes.
Akefia blinked as well – remembering that only Yugi knew what he was talking about – and looked at them, "No, it's nothing." He said simply as he put his hands in his pockets.
"Of course, I'm ugly, right?" The fake Seto asked with a dark chuckle, "Of course I would be ugly, for I'm Kaiba Seto's dead soul who had fallen into the Hell".
"What the hell do you mean by that?!" Mokuba yelled in outrage.
"Mokie." Yugi called out calmly using Mokuba's nickname, "Watch your language".
"Kaiba Seto had died, drowning in the Sea." The fake Seto answered, acting as if Yugi hadn't spoke at all, "And so I'm here to get my revenge – for it's because of you, Yugi, that I died".
"No! You are lying!" Mokuba yelled, looking at the fake Seto incredulously, "Nii-sama is still alive, moron!".
Yugi walked into the Duel Ring and get into the position. "Hey, imposter." He called out to the fake Seto, "According to the rule, every official duel has to bet Star chip. I see that you have 3 Star chips there, so we will bet 3." He said calmly with toneless voice as he placed three Star chips on the space beside his deck.
"Very well." The fake Seto answered as he placed three Star chips, "Yugi, you couldn't win against me, for I'm already dead".
Yugi stared at him blankly as he silently added another Star chip to bet, "If you want to die so badly, just kill yourself." He said emotionlessly.
"I already said to you, Yugi." The fake Seto said with a chuckle, "I'm Kaiba Seto, and I'm already dead, it's all because of you".
Yugi chuckled darkly, "You are so stubborn, aren't you?" He asked calmly, "Fine, if you are so insistent that you are Seto, can you show me the three Blue Eyes White Dragons?" He challenged.
The fake Seto chuckled, "You will see it, in our duel." He answered.
"Alright." Yugi shrugged nonchalantly, "Duel Start!" The Duel Ring activated and their LP appeared, "I will give you the first turn".
"That's fine by me." The fake Seto chuckled as he put a card down, "Cyclops in Attack Mode." He announced.
"That- it's really Kaiba's deck!" Jou gasped in shock when Cyclops appeared on the arena.
"It's Kaiba Seto's deck." The man who was holding Mokuba said, "Kaiba Seto is already DEAD!" He yelled the last word because his hand suddenly caught from behind.
"Didn't Yugi already say that the Seto over there is an imposter?" Akefia asked in a hiss as he moved his right hand to make the man pointed the gun at himself, "Shoot if you dare, you will only kill yourself." As the man's attention was focused on the gun, he used his left hand and grabbed the man's left hand and moved it away from Mokuba, "Boy, go to Jou." He ordered shortly.
Mokuba looked at Akefia in surprise, "Thanks." He said before running over to Jou, who pulled Mokuba to his back immediately – shielding the boy with his body.
Jou pulled out his Silver Bullet before pointing it at the man, "Don't move, or I will shoot you." He said seriously.
"There's no need for that." Akefia said with a smirk and snatched the man's gun, "He will just run with his tail between his legs." He said as he released his hold on the man, only to point the gun at the man's head, "I give you 3 seconds. If you don't run, I will shoot".
The man paled before running away like a kicked puppy, with his tail between his legs just like what Akefia said. Akefia laughed in satisfaction as he watched the man ran away before focusing on the gun in his hand, he took out the bullets before throwing the empty gun to a random direction. "That was fun." He said before looking at Yugi – who was grinning at him, "Kick this imposter's ass, Yugi!" He said with a wide smirk.
"Don't worry, I will!" Yugi answered before focusing on the fake Seto again, he pulled a Card from his hand. "Come forth, Dark Magician!" He placed the Card on the Field and Dark Magician appeared on the arena, "Dark Magic!" Dark Magician launched his attack and destroyed Cyclops, leaving the fake Seto with 700 LP left. "Cyclops is destroyed, what are you going to do now, Fake Seto?" Yugi asked with a raised eyebrow.
The fake Seto chuckled, "You're still that strong, huh?" He tried to taunt Yugi, who only smirked in response.
"A little advice, imposter." Akefia said as he put his hands into his pockets again, "You have to try harder if you want to make Yugi agitated. After all, what you're trying to do is like a Fisherman trying to call the rage of the sea, which is nearly impossible to do".
"Unless this imposter kept up with his arrogant attitude, right?" Mokuba asked cheekily.
"You got it, boy." Akefia said with a smirk, "But by then, he will be long dead".
"Not literally, right?" Anzu asked with a sweat drop.
Akefia's only answer was to widen his smirk before looking at Yugi, making the others followed his example.
"I know for a fact that it is – indeed – Seto's deck you have there." Yugi waved his hand dismissively, "But I also know for a fact that you stole it from him".
"I don't steal this deck, for I am Kaiba Seto and I'm already dead." The fake Seto still tried to convince Yugi, who only scoffed in answer, "I have a question though, Yugi." Yugi only raised his eyebrow questioningly, so he continued, "Can you win without Exodia?".

Meanwhile, inside the Helicopter, Seto was typing on his laptop – since even if he wasn't at his office, didn't mean that he didn't have work to do.
"Hey, Seto." Noah's voice rang out from his earring, "I found something interesting".
"What is it, Noah?" Seto asked before he saw that Noah sent something to his laptop.
"Open it." Noah said simply.
Seto opened it and raised his eyebrows in surprise when he saw that it was a data from one of Pegasus's Duel Ring. "Yugi is dueling against someone?" He asked curiously, he minimized it first in order to save all of his work, then he minimized all of his works to open the dueling data again, "Who is the opponent?" He asked before reading the name of the opponent, only to frown, "Who the hell uses my name?".
"Not only your name, Seto." Noah answered him, "The opponent is using your deck".
"That pervert, Pegasus!" Seto immediately caught on what Noah was hinting – Pegasus told one of his men to duel Yugi using his stolen deck. He didn't know why Pegasus did it, but he didn't like it one bit. "Any idea of why he did this?".
"I don't know if Pegasus has figured out your friendship with Yugi or not, but I think he sent the invitation to Yugi because he knew that Yugi is The Bridge." Noah voiced his opinion.
"But that impossible!" Seto gasped in disbelief, "We have made sure that The Bridge's identity is kept secret! Even Yugi came into the meeting in disguise!".
"Yes, but if Pegasus somehow got his fingerprints? Especially with the Big 5 has a deal with him? It's a piece of cake to put two and two together." Noah pointed out, "Let's say that he knew about Yugi's position in Kaiba Corp. and Pegasus want to have Kaiba Corp. so badly, so I think he has planned this beforehand. He wants to throw Yugi out of competition, to ensure that he will have your Company. After all, if Yugi lost against one of his men, Pegasus can just say that it is as good as his victory against Yugi".
"Yugi has Exodia though." Seto pointed out, "If Pegasus thinks that this bastard that uses my name can win against Yugi that easily, he is sorely mistaken".
"Ah, bad news for you, Seto." Noah replied after a few seconds of silence, "According to the database, Yugi doesn't include Exodia in his deck".
"What?!" Seto's eyes widened.
"You know him as good as I do, Seto." Noah said calmly, and Seto just knew that Noah was shrugging there, "I think we know why Yugi doesn't include Exodia in his deck".
"Too easy of a victory will be boring." Seto sighed in resignation, "That teacher of mine".
"Must be because of his age, he hate to get bored." Noah piped in cheekily.
"Well, I don't know if he can win against my deck without Exodia." Seto rubbed his temple, "If he lose, our plan will be put in jeopardy." He said before looking at his laptop, "Noah, can you hack into Yugi's Duel Ring? It's not that I don't believe in his ability, but we need to ensure his victory in this duel".
"Alright, consider it done." Noah answered with a chuckle.
XXXXX
"What are you talking about?" Yugi asked in confusion, "I still have my Exodia, I just don't include them in my deck. Besides, if you're the real Seto, you should know that I can beat you just fine without Exodia".
"Yugi have Exodia?" Akefia asked to no one at that, "I thought Shimon- no, Sugoroku will have it".
"Grandpa gave his Exodia to Yugi." Jou explained to him, although silently wondering who this Shimon that Akefia was talking about, "About two months ago, Seto came into the Game Shop and found out that Grandpa has the fourth Blue Eyes white dragon. He wanted to have it so badly that he challenged Grandpa in a duel, but Grandpa appointed Yugi to duel in his place and then gave him the Exodia to help him win".
"I see." Akefia nodded in understanding before narrowing his eyes, he could feel That Guy was stirring awake. "I need to go. Talk to you later, kids." He then changed place with Ryou.
"What's happened?" Honda asked when he noticed the sudden change.
"Akefia has something to do." Ryou answered simply before looking at Yugi, "Gambatte, Yugi!" He cheered for his Little Cousin.
"Sure thing." Yugi answered with a grin.
"Yugi." The fake Seto called for his attention, so he looked at the imposter, "Now the dead one from Hell will claim revenge on you." He asked as he showed Yugi a Card, "Do you get it now, Yugi?".
"Quit with the act and just put that Blue Eyes White Dragon onto the field." Yugi answered in bored tone.
"As you wish." The fake Seto put the Card on his Monster field, "Blue Eyes White Dragon!".
"He really is using Nii-sama's stolen deck!" Mokuba gasped in shock, he then looked at Yugi, "Yugi! Don't lose to this imposter! You have to get Nii-sama's deck back from him!".
"Don't worry, Mokie." Yugi reassured him, "I won't lose to some imposter".
"I won't attack in this turn." The fake Seto said, "Instead, I will make sure you have nowhere to run." He announced as he set one Card on Spell/Trap field.
"Magic Card or Trap Card?" Yugi hummed as he drew a Card, "I changed Dark Magician into Defense Mode, and I place Curse of Dragon in Defense Mode as well." He announced as he did just that.
"Got you." The fake Seto said as he revealed his Reverse Card, "Stop Defense!".
"Oh dear." Yugi pouted as he saw both Dark Magician and Curse of Dragon were forced into Attack Position.
The fake Seto chuckled, "Go, Blue Eyes White Dragon!" He ordered Blue Eyes to attack, "Destruction Burst Stream!".
Curse of Dragon got attacked, leaving Yugi with 1000 LP left.
XXXXX
"Nee, Seto." Noah called after some time passed, "I need a bit of help here".
"What help?" Seto asked in confusion, "You're the best when it comes into hacking. Anything that I can do, you can do it yourself".
"Why, thank you for the compliment." Noah chuckled before the image in Seto's laptop changed into a building of some kind, "I found the Duel Ring, and Dark Magician has appeared in the arena. I need a password to enter though, I don't know what Pegasus is using. Any idea?".
"That Pegasus . . ." Seto chuckled in amusement as he looked at the image, "A prison island when you're unable to leave once you enter, huh?".
"But we will never let him has his way, will we?" Noah asked rhetorically as he chuckled as well, amused at how easily readable Pegasus was.
"The password is an easy one, Noah." Seto answered with a confident smirk, "Alcatraz".
"Okay! Password 'Alcatraz' is accepted." Noah informed Seto a second later, "Let's shows Pegasus the true strength of a Kaiba, shall we, Kaiba Seto?".
"You got it, Kaiba Noah." Seto answered with a smirk, "The true battle has begun now".
XXXXX
"It's true that Stop Defense gives me a hard time now, but I won't lose that easily, you know?" Yugi asked rhetorically as he pulled a Card and placed it on his Magic/Trap field, "Magical Silk Hat!" He announced just before Dark Magician was hidden inside 4 hats with question marks on them, "Now you don't know where my Dark Magician is, do you? How will you attack him then?".
"Good one, Yugi!" Ryou cheered for him.
"That's Yugi for you!" Anzu cheered as well.
"Never give up until the end." Jou nodded proudly with his arm crossed, "That's my amazing teacher, Yugi".
"Yeah, now he can escape from Blue Eyes's attack." Honda said in relief.
"Do you see now, imposter?!" Mokuba yelled at the fake Seto, "An imposter like you won't stand a chance against Yugi! Only the real Kaiba Seto can stand a chance!".
"Hmph. You're just buying time." The fake Seto retorted, "What a stupid move".
"Say whatever you want, I don't care." Yugi answered dismissively, "It's your turn".
"I will just attack." The fake Seto said as he pointed at one of the hats, "Destruction Burst Stream!" Blue Eyes attacked the hat, and Yugi smirked when it missed Dark Magician. "It missed, huh?" The fake Seto hissed in annoyance.
"My turn." Yugi said simply before placing a Card, it was hidden inside Magical Silk Hat as well, "I play one Card there, so you better be careful. If not, you will get trapped." Yugi said in sing-song voice, "Your turn, Imposter".
"What is Yugi planning?" Jou asked as he looked at Yugi in concern.
"The chance of winning is only 1/3." Honda said in worry.
"Yugi will be alright . . . right?" Mokuba asked Ryou, who surely could tell what Yugi was planning, since the white haired boy was the reincarnation of Yugi's Older Cousin.
"Don't worry, he will be alright." Ryou reassured him with a smile, "After all, he is a great Strategist".
The fake Seto looked at the remaining hats seriously. "Alright." He said, "I will attack the middle one, Destruction Burst Stream!".
Yugi smirked when the hat destroyed, with a symbol inside the destroyed hat. "You got trapped." He announced cheerfully, "Activate Trap Card! Spell Binding Circle!".
"I knew it!" Ryou said smugly with a smirk, "It's a tactic that always go well with Dark Magician!".
"What's that Card for?" Anzu asked curiously.
"It lowers Attack Point of a Monster." Ryou explained, "Blue Eyes might be strong, but Dark Magician can win once Blue Eyes get trapped in Spell Binding Circle".
"That's right." Yugi confirmed it, "Now, Dark Magician!" Dark Magician came out of the hat he was hiding in and attacked Blue Eyes, leaving the fake Seto with 500 LP left.
"You forgot one thing." The fake Seto said as another Blue Eyes appeared on the field and destroyed Dark Magician, leaving Yugi with 500 LP left as well, "I have 3 Blue Eyes White Dragon".
"Yeah, I made a mistake." Yugi admitted with narrowed eyes, "I didn't count for you to draw a second Blue Eyes already, but regardless, I don't regret attacking the first Blue Eyes. I would have lost already if I didn't".
XXXXX
Seto noticed that Noah had gone quiet, "What is it, Noah?" He asked after he couldn't stand the silence anymore.
"It's bad, Seto." Noah said in worry.
"What?" Seto asked with a frown.
"I'm sending the image now." Noah said just before the image appeared on Seto's laptop, "From what I gathered, two Blue Eyes White Dragons have appeared on the arena. Yugi managed to destroy one with a combo of Dark Magician and Magical Silk Hat – along with Spell Binding Circle, but then Dark Magician got destroyed by the second Blue Eyes. Both of them have 500 LP left now".
"Hm, Yugi is really good to be able to destroy Blue Eyes without Exodia, that's Yugi for you." Seto commented on the situation, "But he is in a desperate situation now".
"Should we interfere?" Noah asked him.
"We shouldn't, because this is Yugi's fight, but we will still do it anyway." Seto answered him calculatively, "Send virus to decrease Blue Eyes White Dragon's attack".
"Is that alright?" Noah asked him in concern, "Kisara is your beloved Soul Card".
"I know, but I'm sure she would rather be destroyed than be used by an imposter, to attack someone important to her and me no less." Seto answered with a sigh, "Forgive me, Kisara." He then looked determinedly at the screen, "Attack with virus level maximum".
"Alright." Noah answered him, "I hope she won't hold a grudge against me".
XXXXX
Now, what to do? Yugi asked himself as he looked at Blue Eyes, I don't have anything in my hand to defeat Kisara. "I don't have any choice." Yugi sighed as he placed a Card on the field, "Gremlin, Attack Mode".
XXXXX
"What the-?!" Seto gasped when he saw Gremlin appeared on the field, "Gremlin in this time? He will lose if that Imposter attack him!" He noticed in worry, "Still no change in Blue Eyes's attack?".
"Not yet, be patient." Noah told him, "Patience is virtue. Besides, you have to believe in The Heart of The Cards".
"You want to try and pulling Yugi on me?" Seto asked with a twitch on his eyebrows.
"Well, only to remind you." Noah answered, and Seto could just tell that the other Kaiba was smirking when he said that, "Wish it on Blue Eyes and the attack will change, she will respond to your Will, you know it".
"I know." Seto said simply and closed his eyes, hoping that – even with the distance between them – Kisara would be able to sense his feeling.
XXXXX
"It seems that this is the end, huh, Yugi?" The fake Seto asked smugly.
"Damn, is there nothing we can do but watch?" Jou asked as he balled his hands into fists, feeling frustrated that he couldn't do anything to help.
"Yugi." Anzu and Mokuba called out in worry.
"Now, attack him, Blue Eyes!" The fake Seto ordered.
Yugi gritted his teeth, preparing to lose, but then gasped when light burst Blue Eyes's body.
"What?!" The fake Seto gasped in shock, "What's going on, Blue Eyes?!".
"Blue Eyes's Attack Point keep decreasing . . ." Yugi said in wonder as he watched Blue Eyes slowly melt, "Virus?".
"Virus?" Anzu asked in confusion.
"Isn't it obvious?" Mokuba asked smugly with a big grin on his face, "This is the proof that Nii-sama is alive! Only he can do this! It's a virus sent by Nii-sama to help Yugi win against Blue Eyes!".
XXXXX
"Good, it's working." Seto said in relief.
"Blue Eyes's Attack Point is reaching 2300 currently, and it will continue to reduce." Noah told him, "Do you want me to prepare attacking on the third Blue Eyes?".
"Might as well." Seto answered him, "I know that Yugi can win, but I don't want to take any chance".
"Alright." Noah said his understanding, then suddenly he cursed. "Crap, Pegasus is interfering with us." Just as he said – actually, hissed – that, many pink bunnies appeared on the screen and kept saying 'Hello, Kaiba-kun'.
"Calm down, Noah, we can handle this." Seto scolded him calmly as he pulled off his earring, he pushed up a hidden button and a USB head appeared from the earring. "I'm connecting you directly to the Network." He said as he plug the USB head to his laptop, "Get rid of Pegasus's virus and connect the microphone to the speakers in the Duel Ring." He then pulled a headphone from under his seat and plugged it into his laptop as well, "Also, use this opportunity to hack into Pegasus's main database. If you see anything important, that can help us in any way, copy it. Make sure Pegasus don't catch you though, I want to catch him off guard".
An image of a boy who has Seto's face – but with Turquoise hair instead of Brown, and darker Blue eyes than Seto – appeared on screen. "Sure, Seto." The boy – who was actually Noah – answered with a smirk, "I'm off." He waved to Seto before running to the Globe image on the screen, he disappeared the second he touch the Globe.
"Now, let's show that Imposter just who he's up against." Seto said with a smirk as he put the headphone on his head.
XXXXX
"Damn, Blue Eyes's Attack is only 2000 now." The fake Seto hissed at the number on his screen before looking at the melting Blue Eyes, "Launch attack, Blue Eyes! Destruction Burst Stream!".
"Oh no!" Jou, Ryou, Mokuba, Anzu and Honda gasped in shock, knowing that Yugi would lose if he was attacked now.
Yugi narrowed his eyes – angry at himself that he couldn't defeat the Imposter, even though he had promised Mokuba.
Then, something unexpected happened. "Protect Yugi, Kisara!" From the speakers on the Duel Ring – the ones used to give sound effect during a duel, Seto's voice rang clearly and firmly.
Everyone gasped when a transparent Blue Eyes – looking more like a Spirit than a hologram, unlike the Blue Eyes that was on the fake Seto's field – appeared in front of Gremlin and block the attack. With Yugi safe, the transparent Blue Eyes disappeared again. The melting Blue Eyes let out a roar before disappeared from as well.
"I- Impossible." The fake Seto stuttered as he gaped at what had just happened, "What the hell is going on?".
"Let me explain it to you, oh the ugly one who dares to impose as me." Seto's cold voice rang from the speaker again, "This is called The Heart of The Card. Blue Eyes is mine, not yours, so she won't attack Yugi unless I want her to".
"You heard him, Imposter." Yugi smirked at the fake Seto, "Now show us your real identity, Oh Fake One".
"That's right." The real Kaiba Seto said in agreement, "I won't allow you to fool around with us anymore".
"Damn!" The fake Seto's disguise destroyed, he became big and fat guy whose face was like a frog. "Well, this outfit is the most comfortable for me." He said with a creepy chuckle, "I'm the 'Dead One's Substitute' sent by Industrial Illusions".
"Creepy." Yugi stared at the guy's face with a grimace.
"How disgusting." Anzu said with a shudder.
"Yugi! Don't hesitate to annihilate him!" Jou said in disgust.
Meanwhile, Honda and Ryou could only stare at the real face of the fake Seto, too stunned to speak.
"Ha! Too bad for you, ugly!" Mokuba sneered at the frog-guy, "Nii-sama's deck can't be used by anyone but him!".
"Miracle won't happen the second time." The frog-guy answered as he draw a Card, "Grappler in Defense Mode!" He said as he placed a Card on the field.
"I see, then I will play Elven Swordsman in Attack Mode." Yugi answered as he placed the Card on the Field, "Attack Grappler!".
Elven Swordsman attacked Grappler, but since it was on Defense, the frog-guy's LP was intact.
"You got me." The frog-guy said calmly, as if he didn't think that he could lose, "I play Kentaurus in Defense Mode, and set one Card on the field".
"Ngh, Magic or Trap, I wonder?" Yugi asked to no one as he draw a Card, "Well, I will also set one Card face down, and play Mystical Elf in Attack Mode. Also, I use Magic Card the Writings of Secret Arts to increase her Attack and Defense by 300 Points".
"Well, this is just what is expected from Yugi's duel." Ryou commented with a smirk, "So intense".
"But it will end here now." The frog-guy chuckled as soon as he draw a Card, "Blue Eyes White Dragon!" He announced as he put the Card on the field.
"What?!" Mokuba gasped, "He got the third Blue Eyes?!".
"Should I interfere?" Seto's voice asked from the speaker.
"No, it's alright." Yugi answered him.
"Because there's nothing you can do!" The frog-guy laughed creepily, "Destruction Burst Stream!".
"Moron." Seto scoffed with a chuckle.
"Yup." Yugi said with a grin, "Trap Card activated! Mirror Force!".
"I won't let you, Negate Attack!" The frog-guy retaliated. The attack that was reflected by Mirror Force was negated, so he was safe. "You think I'm a moron? You're the moron, I have seen through your trap".
"Are you sure about it?" Yugi asked with a chuckle, "You may have seen through my trap, but can you win simply by relying on Blue Eyes? Seto's strategy when facing me is more complicated, you know".
"What?" The frog-guy asked in confusion.
"That means that you are a loser, moron." Seto's voice answered him, "Yugi always has his Trump Card ready for anything, especially against some low-rank Duelist like you who rely on someone else's deck".
"Trump Card?" Honda asked as he looked at Ryou for explanation.
"What do you think can win against Blue Eyes in this situation?" Ryou asked him back with a raised eyebrow.
"The only one would be Blue Eyes White Dragon as well." Mokuba answered him, "Which means his Trump Card is . . ." He raised an eyebrow expectantly.
Jou looked thoughtful before snapping his fingers in triumph, "Monster Reborn!" He said excitedly.
"That's right." Yugi said with a chuckled, "I borrow your Card, Seto".
"Sure, I will lend you a hand." Seto's voice answered him from the speakers, "Come, Blue Eyes! Assists Yugi!" Blue Eyes White Dragon appeared on Yugi's side of the Field and roared loudly, louder than the roar of the Blue Eyes on the frog-guy's side when it appeared.
The frog-guy looked shocked for a second before he cover it with a chuckle, "But their Attack Point is equal." He pointed out.
"Don't even dream about it." Yugi moved his finger from side to side, "Remember the Magic Card I played on Mystical Elf? It's effect is not only to increase her power, but to assist her in lending her power to another Monster".
"You- you're lying!" The frog-guy looked really scared now.
"Blue Eyes White Dragon's attack is great, as is obvious, but that number isn't definite. I learnt it from Seto." Yugi told him with a smirk as his Blue Eyes's Attack Point increased to 4100 points, "Prepare yourself, Creepy Guy, for you will face the rage of Seto and Blue Eyes." He then crossed his arms, "Your call, Seto",
"Thank you, Yugi." Seto's voice range from the speakers again, "Deliver our wrath to the Imposter, Kisara. Destruction Burst Stream!".
"Noooo!" The frog-guy screamed when Yugi's Blue Eyes attacked his Blue Eyes, destroying his Blue Eyes as the outcome and his LP dropped to 0.
"Don't think this is over, Creepy Guy!" Yugi called out to get his attention, "Seto's rage might be satisfied, but my rage has yet to calm down".
"What?" The frog-guy asked in fear.
The Millennium Ring glowed and Ryou changed place with Akefia again, "Oh, this is interesting." He said in anticipation, causing the others – minus Yugi and the frog-guy – to look at him. "I wonder what Yugi will do?".
"You said earlier that you had fallen into the Hell?" Yugi asked the frog-guy with a smile, but his aura was dark. "Let me show you what Hell really is, since you dare to steal Seto's Card and saying that he had died." He said with a sickly sweet voice as he pointing his hand to the man and a glowing Eye appeared on his forehead, "Mind Crush!".
The frog-guy gasped in fear before collapsing.
"Mind Crush?" Akefia laughed at that, "That guy will be seeing Hell for real! No wonder, for he dare to make Yugi mad like that!".
"How come you laugh like that?" Mokuba asked like he was crazy.
"I told you, I'm also known as the Thief King." Akefia answered with a shrug, "For me, who had killed so many in the past, this kind of situation is funny".
The group paled hearing that.
"Papa." Yugi called softly, making them looked up to Yugi – who somehow was already standing on the imposter's side of the Ring and took Seto's deck and the 3 Star chips. "Don't scare my friend like that, you are not the Thief King anymore now".
"Fine, I won't scare them." Akefia said with a sigh, "But I'm still the King of Thieves no matter how long the time passed." He said with a wave of his hand, "Since the problem solved, I'm going to sleep. See you." He said before changing place with Ryou again.
Ryou sighed tiredly, "I apologize for his behavior, he was just in his Crazy Mood because he was having fun seeing Yugi won like that." He said with a smile to them all.
"Crazy Mood?" Yami asked from beside Yugi. Actually, he had been standing beside Yugi the whole time, but he stayed quiet since he didn't want to distract Yugi from his duel.
'Papa was the King of Thieves. Sometimes, because I restricted his movement and behavior, he need a stress release, and he would do something crazy then. When he was like that, we called it Crazy Mood.' Yugi explained as he looked through Seto's deck to inspect them for any damage. Fortunately, none was found, so he put them in his pocket to keep them safe. He then took the Star chips and put them into his Glove. 'Some other time, he would go into Crazy Mood because he was happy. So Crazy Mood is when he was happy or wants to have fun'.
"Seto, thanks for the help." Yugi called out after that, "I won't win in this duel if not for you".
"You're welcome." Seto's voice answered from the speaker, "I'm on my way to Illusion Island now".
"Really?!" Mokuba asked excitedly, "Then we will wait for you, Nii-sama!".
"Alright." Seto answered with a chuckle, "Well, now that the duel is over, I'm off." With that, the Duel Ring de-activated.
The group was silent as they wait for Yugi to walk over to them. "So, what are we going to do now?" Ryou asked, since he didn't have any plan outside of finding Yugi and catching up with the Vampire.
Yugi smiled at him, "Well, night is approaching, so it would be best if we find someplace to camp. We have to keep our guard up though, after all, we have to protect Mokuba until Seto arrives." He said calmly as he ruffled Mokuba's hair.
"Hey, stop doing that." Mokuba pouted at him as he tried to fix his hair into a tamer style, since his hair was wild styled to begin with.
"No promise." Yugi grinned at him, causing Mokuba's pout to deepen and the others to laugh.
