Chapter 795: If One Shot Isn't Enough, Take Another
Like Hayato and Bakura, Dark Yugi, also a game player, had his GM items. However, because his starting position was as a Subordinate of the Pharaoh in a nation, Dark Yugi only had two GM items.
One of them was the **Millennium Rod**. Although originally one of the **Millennium Items**, the **Millennium Rod** as a GM item had the ability to connect with the **Millennium Puzzle** outside the Memory World. This was why Yugi and Joey Wheeler were able to successfully arrive in the Memory World.
The second GM item was the "Hasan, the Stone Tablet Spirit" that Dark Yugi had summoned at this moment. Its ability was said to be powerful: it could imitate the three phases of the sun's change – rising sun, midday sun, and setting sun – granting immunity to death twice.
To put it simply, it increased the number of HP bars. Even if Dark Yugi's HP was depleted, he wouldn't die. Like spending a revival coin, using one usage count of "Hasan, the Stone Tablet Spirit" would allow him to continue living until he cleared the stage.
Not long ago, when Bakura used the "Time Reversal" GM item to scheme against Dark Yugi, depleting the soul gauge of Dark Yugi who had summoned **The Winged Dragon of Ra**, Dark Yugi had actually passively used the power of "Hasan, the Stone Tablet Spirit" once. The memory he recovered while unconscious was also thanks to its remaining power.
Currently, although Dark Yugi had summoned "Hasan, the Stone Tablet Spirit," he didn't plan to spend its last chance to use it just like this. Besides its ability, "Hasan, the Stone Tablet Spirit" also possessed a certain combat power, which was the hidden card Dark Yugi had kept hidden until now.
Looking at the spirit appearing from the Millennium Stone Tablet continuously attack the barrier released by "Hasan, the Stone Tablet Spirit," Dark Yugi had no time to explain more to the others. He quickly said, "Mahad, Mana, Hayato, Hassan can't hold on for too long. Let's quickly leave here!"
"This guy Seto, of all times, he becomes a burden now," Hayato complained helplessly, looking at the unconscious Seto, but his movement wasn't slow at all. He lifted him up and carried him on his back. "Yosh! Let's run away immediately, I can't wait!"
Hayato wasn't resistant to the suggestion of running away at all. Actually, if he hadn't been constantly held back by **Diabound** before, Hayato would have wanted to use the "Let's Run Away!" technique. However, the intrusion of Dark Yugi's party added too many incidents, and until now, it had unexpectedly evolved into a situation where that guy Bakura had already collected six **Millennium Items**.
Hayato could only be thankful that he had been quite foresighted before and had Kaiba and Malik take Isis and Karim away first. Isis's **Millennium Necklace** should still be in her hands, avoiding the appearance of the worst situation.
As for Karim, he ultimately perished in the resistance against the Dark Forces, just as Hayato remembered his destiny. The only blessing Hayato could give for the deceased Karim was to wish that his last battle during his life was a worthy death.
In just these few breaths, the spirit from the Millennium Stone Tablet smashed two more heavy punches onto the barrier. The cracks on the barrier spread again, and Hassan, who wasn't originally meant for this purpose, also flickered uncertainly.
The party naturally no longer delayed and quickly stepped onto the stairs created by Hassan leading to the surface. Dark Yugi had Mana walk at the very front, followed closely by Hayato carrying Seto on his back, and then himself and **Dark Magician**. Just before leaving, however, Dark Yugi still had **Dark Magician** bring along Aknadin, who was also unconscious, using magic to lift his body and keep him floating.
It was an undeniable fact that the opponent wanted to put Dark Yugi to death. Even if Dark Yugi ignored Aknadin and left him here for the evil will inside that Millennium Stone Tablet to deal with however it pleased, no one would think what Dark Yugi did was too excessive.
But before Aknadin died, Dark Yugi felt that the opponent could still be of some use. At least he had just now proven that there were many extremely important things in his head, such as the dark alchemy that created that Millennium Stone Tablet and the **Millennium Items**. Maybe there would still be a time to use him later, so temporarily sparing his life and considering execution later wasn't too late.
Before, it took Dark Yugi nearly a minute to fall from the surface into the underground. Although about half of that time was spent riding on **Winged Dragon, Guardian of the Fortress** to decelerate and descend, this distance was not short at all when walking from bottom to top. Halfway up, **Dark Magician** personally took action to slightly lift Dark Yugi's body and speed up his steps.
Mana, who also thought of this idea but was preempted by her master, somewhat dejectedly had **Dark Magician Girl** also grab onto her body to help. As for Hayato, even more so halfway up, he handed the unconscious Seto over to **Dark Magician**'s magic and seriously climbed the stairs himself.
Although the stairs were very long, they were still too far off compared to those terrifying stairs in front of Pegasus's Castle on Duelist Kingdom Island. Before long, they could see that the few people were about to successfully reach the surface.
But at the same time, intense trembling and a roar came from beneath their feet, followed by the sound of glass shattering. Even without turning back to look, everyone knew clearly that was definitely the spirit from the Millennium Stone Tablet breaking through Hassan's obstruction.
The stairs beneath their feet also flickered uncertainly because of Hassan's disappear. Hayato turned back to look. That unobstructed spirit was stepping on the pillars inside the underground shrine and quickly climbing towards them. And as the opponent approached, the darkness from the underground also spread out towards the surface, causing the stairs behind them to be all swallowed by the darkness.
"The opponent is catching up!" Mana, walking at the very front, stepped onto the ground, suddenly turned around and shifted position, clearing the way for the few people behind. At the same time, she and **Dark Magician Girl**, who also had free hands, simultaneously raised their wands and aimed at the spirit below, chanting, "My Master, sacred as the sun... and then, situation urgent, subsequent parts all omitted... Mana Mana-chan's Gaia Destruction Cannon!"
"Boom!"
The magic cannon released by Mana and **Dark Magician Girl**, pouring in mystical power, fired instantly, giving no time for reaction. However, when it bombarded the spirit chasing after everyone, although an explosion sound was clearly heard, even the firelight was swallowed by the darkness on its body, failing to slow down the opponent's speed by even a single bit.
"You're kidding?!" Mana was also stunned, but then gritted her teeth and cast a spell again, "There's nothing a magic cannon can't solve! If there is, just fire another one!"
"Maximum Spark!"
"Double Spark!"
"Ultimate Spark!"
"Easy Result Maximum Spark!"
Although Mana and **Dark Magician Girl** continuously released one magic cannon after another, they seemed to have no use at all against this spirit before them. Seeing that the opponent was about to reach the surface and attack the few people, more importantly, because of that spirit's approach, Hayato and Dark Yugi, who hadn't reached the surface yet, felt the ground beneath them give way, and they were almost falling into the underworld.
"Be careful!" Throwing Seto and Aknadin onto the ground, **Dark Magician** took action immediately and in time, pulling back Hayato and Dark Yugi. But also because of this, that spirit was now less than ten meters away from the three, with its wide-open pitch-black mouth as if about to pounce and swallow the few people into the darkness within its belly!
Just then, a voice rang out:
"Kaiba———Kick!"
A white color figure rushed from a distance in time, maintaining a cool flying kick movement, and fiercely kicked the mouth of that spirit!
