really what he wants? Kaiba is slightly irritated and realizes that he hasn't thought about what Mokuba actually wants for a long time.
Yuki kept a close eye on him. "You claim that you only want the best for your brother, and believe it or not, I want that too! I want Mokuba to finally get his real brother back. I want you to be like you used to be! As Noah told me about you and what had happened between you and what he wanted from you, then I knew that I could not only get a better system, I also saw the opportunity to finally do something of that well again, what I had done. It was clear to me that I would make sure that you became sensible again and that Noah got his new body! "
Kaiba jerks up. "Forget it!", He clarifies, "I definitely won't construct a new body for this guy!" "But he's yourbrother, Seto!", Yuki throws back, "You were always one Exemplary brotherhood. You were the best brother Mokuba could wish for. Why can't you be that for Noah too? "" Because I don't want anything to do with the guy! ", Kaiba hisses," Besides, he's just mine[ i]stepbrother[/i]. "
"Mokuba had no problem accepting him as a brother, why you?", Yuki wants to know excitedly "Whether you want it or not, by joining the Kaiba family, you are now related to him too, Seto Tejima. He's your brother and he needs your help. And that's why he deserves your compassion and support! "
"The only thing this digital smartass deserves is to be deleted on the spot!", says Kaiba darkly. Yuki is about to give a snappy answer when Noah interrupts her.
"You are right, Seto, I deserve it!", He looks over at the others with a sad look, "And it was basically clear to me from the start that you would never construct a new body for me. I know I was really mean you and the other and I'm ashamed of it, but at least I had to try.
"I had hoped, with Atsumi's help and with the help of Yugi, that I would still be able to convince you, but as I immediately thought it was hopeless. I will never be able to leave this virtual prison, I have come to terms with that in the meantime. It was too good to be true.
"But since the explosion at that time, this existence has become absolutely unbearable for me. If you don't want to construct a body for me, then I have at least one last request for you, Seto!" Kaiba looks at him with folded arms: "And she would?"
Noah swallows hard once. "Please delete my matrix! I cannot bear to continue to exist merged with my father for a day. The very thought of it makes me shudder far more than the possibility of my sudden end to my existence. In no case do I want to go on living like this!
"But Gozaburo is right, I cannot be deleted. Due to the transfer error, the deletion process is no longer possible in the normal way. My father's fragments defend themselves with all their might, he just won't let me calm down!", In Noah's eyes it shines damp. A tear slowly rolls down his cheek, but halfway through it, it melts back into his face. A prismatic flicker flickers across its appearance.
"I may have become a superhumanly intelligent being through virtual reality, but I am completely powerless on this point. But you are one of the most capable computer specialists there is, Seto. I'm sure you could untangle my data salad and make sure that you and I finally find our peace. "
A thin smile wraps around the corner of Kaiba's mouth. "Finally an idea that I could make friends with," he says sardonically.
"Oh no, that is out of the question!", Yuki gets excited now, "I definitely won't let that happen, Seto, understand? You can't get away from me that easy! Youwillyour brother Build a new body! "Irritated, Kaiba turns to her:" I'm sick of you constantly thinking you have to make me rules. If the only way I can get out of this cyberspace is to get into this little failure Shipped beyond, then I'll do it, and with pleasure! "
"You can't be serious, Kaiba!", Yami intervenes indignantly, "I don't think that even you are capable of such a thing. We didn't always agree, but I know you well enough to know that something like this just doesn't suit you.You would never commit a murder, I just can't imagine that! "
"Have I already said that I will do that?", Says Kaiba disparagingly, "Apart from that, it was his own wish. However, the thought of his current state somehow gives me satisfaction. Basically I don't care what he becomes. Let him decide for himself. "
Now there is movement in Yuki. With a few steps she is with him. She energetically grabs his shirt. "I won't accept that!" She sparkles. Kaiba roughly sweeps her hand away. "Don't touch me! Just put up with it! There's nothing that can change my mind."
Yuki clenched her teeth, then straightened up. "Well, Seto, then different! You don't give me a choice!" "What do you want to do?", Kaiba asks mockingly, "Forcing me?" "No!", Says Yuki firmly, "I'll challenge you to a duel ! "Kaiba raises her eyebrows in surprise:" You challenge me? And what if I may ask? "" Well, you can guess three times! ", Yuki replies," Your supreme discipline! ]Dueling monsters[/i]of course! "
"I think I misheard", says Kaiba, "You are challenging me in all seriousness? Have you become completely megalomaniac? You know very well that you don't have the slightest chance!" But Yuki is not deterred: "We'll see! Here's the stake: If you win, Kaiba-Corp will get the unrestricted rights of disposal for our new virtual reality! Do what you want with it! In addition, I will completely stay away from you and you in the future never bother again, you'll never hear from me again.
"But if you don'tdefeat me, then you will build Noah his new body and make sure that it is transferred in undamaged. I think that's a fair offer!"
"So, do you think?", Kaiba replies, unmoved, "You seem to be very sure of your business. Why don't you also offer your company when you are already at it? Offer everything you have, then you can do exactly that like your father lose everything. "
“No, don't!” Yami yells, “Don't get involved, Yuki! I'm sure you're good, but you're risking too much here. Kaiba is really an excellent player, I can judge that. You have no chance! You would lose everything that you worked so hard for. "
"At least on this point I have to agree with Yugi," adds Kaiba disdainfully, "You have no chance! You can't be serious about this ridiculous challenge!" Yuki glared at him resolutely. "You will see how serious I am! It counts! You will also get my company if you win! But if you fail to defeat me, you will help Noah. That is the deal!"
"Yuki, think again!", Yami implores her, "The risk is too great! I think it's admirable how much you stand up for Noah, but do you really want to risk everything for it?There is very little chance that you will win. If you agree, I'll duel with Kaiba. If he wins, he will get his title back as world champion, that alone should be enough for him. "" Do you really think I'm that simple, Yugi? ", says Kaiba," I'm disappointed in you! "
But Yuki fends off. "Thank you for the offer, Yugi! But I have to clarify this with Seto myself. The mission remains!", She looks firmly at her childhood friend. For a moment, Kaiba seems to think about it, then he says: "You seem to be really serious about it, don't you?" "You will soon find outhowserious!" Finally, Kaiba shrugs. "As far as I am! I will accept your silly challenge! You really seem to want to lose everything. Defeating yourself should be a piece of cake." Yuki snorts with contempt: "Don't be so sure about that! In the event that you should also have forgotten that:Itaught you this game,megave you your very first cards! So don’t imagine that you’re so easy with me You may have gotten better, but so have I! "
"I don't think so until I see it!" Says Kaiba contemptuously. "So be it!", Yuki looks determinedly at him, "This duel will decide everything, but I'll tell you right away: You definitely won't win!"

"Man, that's awesome!" Exclaims Jonouchi. Excited, he jumps up from his chair. Anzu tries to calm him down again, Jonouchi. "I can't!", Jonouchi wailed jitterily, "Kaiba is about to get his listening spoon bent! Oh man, I definitely don't want to miss that! It's better than the cinema here, all that's missing is popcorn and cola!"
"Now do it halfway!", Says Anzu, "You know how good Kaiba is yourself. Even Yugi has a hard time against him, and you lost miserably to him last time." "Maybe so," says Jonouchi to, "but I have the feeling that this Yuki is not completely without it. Real top players recognize their own kind, you know?" "And why do youthen think that Yuki Atsumi is good?", Honda teases his friend.
But Jonouchi does not go into it at all. "The fact is that she apparently doesn't let Kaiba tell her anything. I haven't seen anyone who has given this guy such an open opinion ... except maybe Yugi."
“I still wonder if Kaiba is right after all,” says Anzu. “The whole thing looks like an act of revenge for her father to me.” “But she said she blames herself for his death ", Honda objects," All she wants is for Kaiba to be the same as it used to be: the nice boy next door! "" But why? ", Anzu asks back," Why does she want him to be a nice guy again do?Why is she making such an effort? "
"You heard her," said Jonouchi, "She wants to help Noah and that would only work if Kaiba got off his high horse." "But she hardly knows Noah," says Anzu, "and yet she challenges Kaiba out and risking everything she has to lose. I'm sure she knows that Kaiba is in a different league. Then why is she risking her company just to help Noah? "
Jonouchi says, planting himself back on the chair, "Maybe the boy did it to her in his new look. Honestly, do the girls like that?" Anzu looks thoughtfully at the monitor. Maybe there really is something true about it, she thinks. Maybe Yuki really has something for Noah. That would at least explain a lot.
"I will
