Hello all Storm here with a new chapter! Here we'll be seeing Naruto and Rin working together to collect more Star Chips, along with getting to know each other better. We'll also be bringing in more characters to have them challenge, with both of them dueling in this chapter. So, without further ado.
I own nothing
After their encounter with the Ventriloquist of the Dead, and their deal to work together to defeat Pegasus, Naruto and Rin had set off, and began traveling the island, searching for other Duelists to face. Nero was also present, not that anyone but Naruto could see her, with the former Emperor wishing to learn more about her Praetor, by watching him duel.
So far though, they haven't come across any Duelists to challenge.
"What did you mean earlier? That Pegasus stole the souls of your sister and Yugi's grandfather?" Rin said, now registering exactly what Naruto had said, when revealing the reason he and Yugi were on the island, while Naruto mentally cursed, since he figured it would have been good to keep the more magical elements a secret, given how crazy it sounded.
But now, he didn't really have a choice, since something told him that Rin wasn't the type of person to let things go. Plus, she's basically involved now, with Pegasus having kidnapped her brother.
"It's exactly what I meant; Pegasus stole their souls. He did it with something, called the Millennium Eye, an Egyptian artifact, like Yugi's Millennium Puzzle. From what Yugi told me, it also allows Pegasus to look into a person's mind and know what they're thinking, something rather useful to have, when playing a game like Duel Monsters." Naruto explained, fully expecting Rin to think he was crazy for believing in something like that, but she deserved to know exactly what she was getting into.
"So, he actually has a Millennium Item." Said Rin, frowning, as Naruto looked at her in surprise.
"Wait, you believe me?" Naruto asked, having thought she'd think he was crazy, while Rin nodded.
"Yeah, I believe you. I actually suspected Pegasus might have come into possession of a Millennium Item, after learning about his trips to Egypt and creating Duel Monsters." Replied Rin, with this surprising the whiskered blonde, once again.
"How exactly do you even know about the Millennium Items?" Questioned Naruto, figuring they were supposed to be kept a secret, or passed off as myths.
"I've studied the occult and supernatural for nearly my entire life. And I came across information on the Millennium Items during my studies, as well as how they possess magical powers. Along with the fact Duel Monsters originated from Egypt, thousands of years ago, only they didn't use trading cards, but real monsters." Rin answered, having done her fair share of research into the origins of Duel Monsters, and the Millennium Items.
"I also know that ring of yours is another Millennium Item, but not an Egyptian one. It's from Rome, correct." Said Rin, looking Naruto's ring, while both Naruto and Nero looked at Rin in surprise at her knowledge.
"Yeah, it is. But how do you know that?" Naruto asked, since even Pegasus assumed his Millennium Ring was the Egyptian version.
"Just a hunch. Given it wouldn't be that strange, that after Rome conquered Egypt, they would have discovered the existence of the Millennium Items, and tried making their own versions." Replied Rin.
"This one is quite intelligent Praetor. I could have used her as an adviser, back when I was Emperor." Nero stated, impressed at Rin's intelligence, and pleased that Naruto had her as an ally.
"Huh. And what about your brothers, do they believe in all this?" Naruto said, figuring Kaiba wouldn't believe something like magic or real monsters, only to be surprised again, when Rin nodded.
"Yeah, they believe me, and know about my research. Though Seto is skeptical a bit it, but he's willing to accept it, if he sees proof." Answered Rin.
'This day is just full of surprises.' Thought Naruto.
"Okay. So, how exactly did you become interested in the occult and supernatural?" Asked Naruto.
"My parents, my birth parents. They studied it, wanting to unravel the mysteries of the past, and how certain things came about. Traveling all over the world, researching anything they could find." Rin answered, looking down with a sad expression.
"You don't have to tell me, if you don't want to." Naruto said, upon seeing the sadness in her eyes, while Rin shook her head.
"No, it's fine, it actually feels good talking to someone about this, besides my brothers. Anyway, my parents went on one of their usual trips, which I was able to go on, but there was an accident, and I never saw them again. It was after that, I was put into the same orphanage as Seto and Mokuba, all three of us growing close and becoming each other's family. After we were adopted by Gozaburo, I wanted to continue where my parents left off and continue solving the mysteries of the supernatural." Rin explained.
"It's also why I got so angry, after learning that Pegasus kidnapped Mokuba, I'm not losing anyone else that I care about, not if I can save them." Said Rin, now even more determined to save Mokuba from Pegasus, with the knowledge he had the Millennium Eye, and what he could do with it.
But also, now worried that he'll take Mokuba's soul, and do who knows what with it.
"I know the feeling. After learning what happened to Shio, I just…I wanted to find Pegasus and rip that eye from his head, before beating him within an inch of his life." Naruto said, still angry at what happened to his sister, and swore he'll make Pegasus pay for what he did.
"You really care about your sister, don't you." Rin said, with a small sad smile, with Naruto nodding.
"More than anything, I promised myself I'd always keep her safe. But now, I have to worry about people with magical artifacts that could hurt her, just because of I have this." Said Naruto, as he looked at his Millennium Ring, while giving Nero an apologetic look, since he didn't mean any offense to her, which Nero merely waved off in understanding, know that being the owner of a Millennium Item was a heavy burden.
"That's the burden of being an older sibling. We do everything we can to keep them safe, and hate ourselves for when we fail." Rin muttered, with Naruto looking at her, and saw the sadness in her eyes.
"You…didn't just lose your parents, did you." Said Naruto softly, with Rin nodding her head.
"My little sister was with us. I tried saving her, but I couldn't. Now I'm worried that I'll fail again." Rin revealed, not wanting to fail to save Mokuba, like she did with Sakura.
Rin then looked at Naruto, when he put a hand on her shoulder.
"We will save them, Shio, Mokuba, and Yugi's grandfather. We'll save all of them, and stop Pegasus." Said Naruto, with determination in his eyes, surprising Rin at the conviction in his voice, before she nodded in determination, as well.
"Right." Rin replied, before the two continued searching for Duelists to face.
"And for the record, despite how you present yourself as a prim, proper, and stoic girl, along with our first meeting. I can tell that you're actually a very warm and kind person, Rin." Said Naruto, smiling at the ravenette, with Rin freezing in place before glaring at Naruto.
"Wh-what are you talking about?! I-I am not warm, or anything like that! I'm merely showing concern for our respective siblings being held captive, and-and…sh-shut up!" Rin said, before looking away, when she saw Naruto was still smiling at her, along with a light blush on her cheeks.
"Umu, if you are seeking to court this one Praetor, I highly approve of your choice. If she had lived during my reign, I would have sought her as my bride, as well." Said Nero, nodding in approval of Naruto courting Rin, her words making the Uzumaki blush and look away from Rin.
After shaking off their embarrassment, the two continued on their way to search for Duelists to challenge.
Unfortunately, they were soon able to find a Duelist, with Rin groaning in annoyance at who it was.
The Duelist was a teenager with short curly blue hair, that looked like seaweed, grey blue eyes, and pale skin. With his attire consisting of a white and black jacket, a black shirt, blue jeans, and dress shoes.
"Ah, my dear Rin, how lovely to see you." Said the guy, with a smug smirk on his face.
'Wow, I literally just met this guy, and already I want to kick his ass.' Naruto thought, before looking at Rin, who was covering her face and shaking her head.
"Of all the Duelists, this moron has to be here." Rin muttered, wishing they could have found anyone, literally anyone, else except this person.
"I take it you know him." Naruto stated, with Rin nodding reluctantly.
"Unfortunately. This is Shinji Matou, I had the misfortune of having to duel him in a past tournament, I entered." Replied Rin, as Shinji's smirk grew.
"Not that it's any of your business, commoner. In fact, why don't you leave now and leave this tournament to the real Duelists. After all, you being invited to participate must have been a mistake, if you don't recognize one of the top Duelists in the world." Shinji sneered at Naruto, who clenched his fists, now really starting to hate this guy as much as Weevil.
"Yeah, one of the top Duelists in the world, right below the three hundred other Duelists that could beat you, with their eyes closed." Stated Rin, smirking, before looking at Naruto.
"Just ignore everything he says, or even consider him actual competition, since even a toddler would be a better challenge than him. He's nothing but a lecherous playboy, with a superiority complex and an inferiority complex. He's also obsessed with making me into one of his girls, thinking I'll swoon over him. Like the other airheaded barbies, he surrounds himself with." Rin said, with Shinji's face turning red in anger.
"How dare you! I am one of the strongest Duelists in the world, I have girls lining up, just for the hope of looking at me! You should be honored I even consider you worthy of being mine!" Shinji shouted, though it was more of a whine, if anything, even stomping his foot like an overgrown man child, much to Naruto and Nero's disgust.
"Well now, I can definitely see why I haven't heard about you; nobody likes talking about a bad joke!" Said Naruto, shaking his head, that someone like this could be considered a professional Duelist.
If so, then he had new sympathy for Kaiba and Rin, if they had to deal with idiots like these, at the tournaments they enter.
"He would not even be fit to be a cupbearer for my servants!" Nero shouted, wanting nothing more than for Naruto to strike Shinji down, so he may never insult them again with his presence.
"Yeah, you have girls lining up, alright. Lining up to buy plane tickets, so they can get as far away from you, as they possibly can." Stated Rin, with Shinji's face turning even redder in anger.
"That's it! I challenge you to a duel, and once I win, you will be mine!" Shinji shouted, with Rin looking with a bored expression, before sighing.
"Fine, I suppose I could use a warmup, for when the real competition arrives." Said Rin, figuring this way, she could begin collecting Star Chips, and have to deal with one less idiot on the island.
The two then travelled to a Dueling Arena, with Rin going on the red side and Shinji on the blue side.
"DUEL!"
Rin-2000
Shinji-2000
'This one's a Forest and Wasteland Duel Field.' Naruto thought, seeing the field they were dueling on, so he doubted there'd be a Field Power Bonus.
"I believe I'll start things off." Shinji said, smirking as he drew a card.
"I'll set a monster facedown, and put one card facedown as well. I end my turn." Said Shinji, crossing his arms, with Rin shaking her head, as she drew a card.
"Okay, first I play Pot of Greed to draw two more cards." Rin said, while drawing two more cards.
Pot of Greed
Card Type: Normal Spell
Effect: Draw 2 cards.
"Now I play the Spell Card, Frontline Base." Said Rin, while playing a second spell card.
Frontline Base
Card Type: Continuous Spell
Effect: Once per turn: You can Special Summon 1 Level 4 or lower Union monster from your hand.
"Now I summon to the field, Dark Blade!" Rin said, while summoning the black armored warrior to the field.

Card Type: Normal Monster.
Monster Type: Warrior
Card Text: They say he is a dragon-manipulating warrior from the dark world. His attack is tremendous, using his great swords with vicious power.
ATK/1800 DEF/1500
"But that's not all, because now I activate Frontline Base to special summon, Pitch-Dark Dragon!" Said Rin, while summoning Dark Blade's dragon mount.
Pitch-Dark Dragon
Attribute: Dark
Level: 3
Card Type: Effect Monster.
Monster Type: Dragon/Union
Effect: Once per turn, during your Main Phase, if you control this card on the field, you can equip it to your "Dark Blade" as an Equip Spell Card, OR unequip the Union equipment and Special Summon this card in face-up Attack Position. While equipped to a monster by this card's effect, increase the ATK/DEF of the equipped monster by 400 points. When it attacks with an ATK that is higher than the DEF of a Defense Position monster, inflict the difference as Battle Damage to your opponent's Life Points. (1 monster can only be equipped with 1 Union Monster at a time. If the equipped monster is destroyed as a result of battle, destroy this card instead.)
ATK/900 DEF/600
"Now I equip Pitch-Dark Dragon to my Dark Blade, increasing his ATK and DEF by four hundred." Rin said, as Dark Bladejumped up and landed on Pitch-Dark Dragon's back, increasing his power, while the dragon growled at the terrified Shinji.
Dark Blade: ATK/1800 DEF/1500 – ATK/2200 DEF/1900
Shinji gulped at the sight of the powerful monster, before quickly regaining his smirk.
"It doesn't matter, how powerful your monster is, my dear Rin; it can't do anything, thanks to my face down." Said Shinji.
"Oh really? Thanks for the tip, I activate another Spell Card, Mystical Space Typhoon! Destroying your facedown!" Rin said, smirking as she played another spell, as tornado appeared and swept past Shinji's field, destroying his facedown.
Mystical Space Typhoon
Card Type: Quick-Play Spell
Effect: Destroy 1 Spell or Trap Card on the field.
"Now, Dark Blade, attack his facedown monster!" Rin said, as Pitch-Dark Dragon roared and flew across the field, with Dark Blade slashing his swords right through Shinji's monster, revealing it to be Djinn Disserere of Rituals.

Card Type: Effect Monster.
Monster Type: Fiend
Effect: When you Ritual Summon a monster, you can banish this card from your Graveyard as 1 of the monsters required for the Ritual Summon. The monster Ritual Summoned using this card is unaffected by Trap effects.
ATK/200 DEF/200
"S-so what?! My monster was facedown, so I don't lose any life points!" Shinji shouted, still confident he could win, while Rin merely smirked.
"You never even stood chance. Because you see, when Pitch-Dark Dragon is equipped to Dark Blade, and he attacks a monster in Defense Mode, the difference is taken out my opponent's life points. And given Dark Blade's ATK went up to 2200, while your Djinn only had two hundred DEF…" Rin trailed off.
Shinji-2000 – 2000 = 0
"That was…can that even be considered sad?" Naruto asked, not sure what else to think, at just how one-sided that was.
"Pathetic, the word you're looking for is pathetic, Praetor." Nero deadpanned, as Rin exited the Dueling Arena, and approached Shinji.
"I'll be taking my Star Chips, now." Said Rin, with Shinji glaring at her hatefully, before shouting as he charged her, refusing to give up his Star Chips.
With Rin not all perturbed by this, in fact fully expecting Shinji to be a sore loser and try something. So, Rin was ready, and slammed her foot into Shinji's stomach, making him double over in pain at the hit. With the girl then following up, by grabbing him by the back of his jacket, and kicking his legs out from under him, before flipping him over her shoulder onto the ground.
"I'll be taking these." Rin said, while taking Shinji's Star Chips, and putting them in her own gauntlet.
'Four down, six to go.' Thought Rin, pleased that she only needed to win a few more Star Chips.
"Give me those back!" Shinji shouted, while getting up to charge Rin again.
Or he would have, had Naruto not grabbed him by his shoulder, and turned him around, before punching him square in the jaw. Knocking Shinji down again, with the blue-haired boy being knocked unconscious by the hit.
"Thanks, but I could have handled him myself." Said Rin, not wanting Naruto to think she needed his help, while Naruto nodded at her words.
"Given what I saw, I'm sure you could. But I also really wanted to punch this asshole." Naruto said.
"Fair enough." Stated Rin, while nodding in acceptance.
With that, the continued on their way to find more Duelists, leaving the unconscious Shinji to be picked up, and taken off the island.
*Later*
After some time, Naruto and Rin exited the forest, and came out into a large field.
"I may hate Pegasus right now, but you can't deny, he definitely knows a good place to hold a tournament." Rin said, amazed at the beauty the island had, with Naruto nodding in agreement, willing to admit that Duelist Kingdom was an amazing island.
"Umu, we should take this island as our spoils of war, once we crush Pegasus." Said Nero, with Naruto glancing at her and shaking his head, not wanting to have an island, and in fact, wanted to leave as soon as they saved Shio, Solomon, and Mokuba.
"Hey!"
Pulled from their thoughts, Naruto and Rin looked to see a Duelist running towards them.
"Hey, you're Naruto Uzumaki, right? The guy with the fourth Blue-Eyes White Dragon?" The Duelist asked, with Naruto immediately on guard at the mention of his Blue-Eyes, not feeling very trusting after what Weevil tried pulling.
"Yeah, who wants to know?" Questioned Naruto, as the Duelist smirked.
"I'm Kiba Inuzuka, and I wanna challenge you to a duel." Kiba said, wanting to see how his deck stacked up to the Blue-Eyes White Dragon.
"Oh, well alright then." Said Naruto, smirking as well, glad for the chance to duel as well.
The three then went over to a nearby Duel Arena, with Naruto and Kiba taking the blue and red sides, respectively.
"DUEL!"
Naruto-2000
Kiba-2000
"I'll start things off." Said Naruto, drawing a card and adding it to his hand, looking to see what he had, before looking at the field.
'Grassland and Mountains.' Thought Naruto, smirking, since the latter field would be good for his monsters.
"First, I'll start by activating the effect of the Thunder Dragon in my hand, by discarding it, I get to add two more Thunder Dragons to my hand. And I'll be summoning one of them, right now." Said Naruto, discarding one Thunder Dragon and drew his other two, before summoning one to the field.
Thunder Dragon

Level: 5
Card Type: Effect Monster.
Monster Type: Thunder
Effect: You can discard this card; add up to 2 "Thunder Dragon" from your Deck to your hand.
ATK/1600 DEF/1500
"And because we're on the Mountains Field, my Dragon gains an extra two hundred ATK and DEF." Naruto said smirking, as his Thunder Dragon grew stronger.
Thunder Dragon: ATK/1600 DEF/1500 – ATK/1800 DEF/1700
"Then I'll put two cards facedown, and end my turn." Said Naruto, putting two cards on the field, and ending his turn.
"Nice move. But it's my turn, now!" Kiba said, drawing a card, pleased at the card he had.
"Alright, first I'm gonna activate the Spell Card, Spiritual Forest." Said Kiba playing his spell card.
Spiritual Forest
Card Type: Continuous Spell
Effect: Each turn, the first face-up Beast, Beast-Warrior, or Plant-Type monster you control that would be destroyed by battle, is not destroyed.

Monster Type: Beast-Warrior
Effect: During battle between this attacking card and a Defense Position monster, whose DEF is lower than the ATK of this card, inflict the difference as Battle Damage to your opponent.
ATK/1700 DEF/0
"And just like how your dragon gets a boost from the Mountains, my Wild-Horn gets a boost, while being in the Grassland." Said Kiba, as Wild-Horn's strength increased.
Phantom Beast Wild-Horn: ATK/1700 DEF/0 – ATK/1900 DEF/200
"Now go Wild-Horn, take out his Thunder Dragon!" Kiba said, as Wild-Horn let out a battle cry, before charging Thunder Dragon.
"Not so fast! I activate my face down, Reinforcements! Boosting my Dragon's ATK by five hundred!" Said Naruto, while activating his trap.
Reinforcements
Card Type: Normal Trap
Effect: Target face-up monster gains 500 ATK until the End Phase.
Thunder Dragon: ATK/1800 DEF/1700 – ATK/2300 DEF/1700
Thunder Dragon roared, as it unleashed a blast of lightning at Wild-Horn, consuming it in an explosion, while Kiba's life points went down.
Kiba-2000 – 400 = 1600
Naruto was pleased at taking the lead, and saving his monster, only to frown when he saw Wild-Horn hadn't been destroyed.
"Surprised? It's thanks to Spiritual Forest, each turn the first Beast, Beast-Warrior, or Plant-Type monster I have that's attacked, is saved from being destroyed. And while my life points weren't saved, I still have my monster. Now I'll put a card facedown, and end my turn." Said Kiba, placing a facedown, since his attack failed, while Thunder Dragons ATK points returned to normal.
Thunder Dragon: ATK/2300 DEF/1700 – ATK/1800 DEF/1700
"Alright, my draw then." Naruto said, drawing a card and adding it to his hand, while frowning at what he had.
"I play the Spell Card Polymerization, fusing the Thunder Dragon on my field, with the one in my hand, to summon Twin-Headed Thunder Dragon!" Said Naruto, as his two dragons fused together into the larger red and purple two-headed version.

ATK/2800 DEF/2100
"No go Thunder Dragon, attack Wild-Horn!" Said Naruto, as his dragon roared, before both heads unleashed blasts of lightning at Wild-Horn.
"I activate my facedown! Horn of the Phantom Beast! This not only boosts Wild-Horns ATK by eight hundred, so I don't take much damage, but Spiritual Forest still keeps him from being destroyed." Said Kiba, while activating his trap.
Horn of the Phantom Beast
Card Type: Normal Trap
Effect: Target 1 Beast or Beast-Warrior monster you control; equip this card to that target. It gains 800 ATK. If the equipped monster destroys your opponent's monster by battle and sends it to the GY: Draw 1 card.
Phantom Beast Wild-Horn: ATK/1900 DEF/200 – ATK/2700 DEF/200
While Kiba was able to keep his monster from being destroyed and prevented himself from taking massive damage, his life points still went down a little.
Kiba-1600 – 100 = 1500
"I end my turn." Said Naruto, after seeing there weren't any other cards, he could use.
"Then it's my draw, again!" Kiba said, drawing a card and adding it to his hand, before smirking at the cards he now had.
"Oh, you're in trouble now. Because I'm bringing out, Behemoth the King of All Animals!" Said Kiba, summoning forth the large purple beast to the field, Naruto's eyes widening in surprise at the large monster
Behemoth the King of All Animals
Attribute: Earth
Level: 7
Card Type: Effect Monster.
Monster Type: Beast
Effect: This card can be Normal Summoned or Set with 1 Tribute. In that case, the original ATK of this card becomes 2000. When this card is Tribute Summoned, you can return from your Graveyard to the owner's hand a number of Beast-Type monsters equal to the number of Tributed monsters.
ATK/2700 DEF/1500
"Sure, Behemoth isn't strong enough to take out your Thunder Dragon, but you also can't destroy him, thanks to Spiritual Forest. So, I'll put one card facedown and end my turn." Said Kiba, before putting one card on the field, with Naruto narrowing his eyes.
'He's planning something, and I bet it has to do with that facedown.' Naruto thought.
"I draw." Said Naruto, adding a card to his hand, knowing he's a tricky situation.
He can't attack, since while he'll deal damage, Kiba's monsters won't be destroyed thanks to Spiritual Forest, and he can't just keep whittling away at his life points. Along with that facedown he just put on the field, which Naruto was sure is a trap to increase the power of his monsters.
'What do I do? What can I do?' Thought Naruto, looking at his hand, only to be surprised at what he had, before he smirked, as a strategy began forming in his mind.
"Okay, first I play the Spell Card, Card of Sanctity. Refreshing both of our hands." Said Naruto, playing his spell as he and Kiba each drew, until they had six cards.
Card of Sanctity
Card Type: Normal Spell
Effect: Each player draws until they have 6 cards in their hand.
"Then I play another Spell Card, Fusion Sage, allowing to add a Polymerization card to my hand." Naruto said, playing another spell, and drawing another Polymerization.

Card Type: Normal Spell
Effect: Add 1 "Polymerization" from your Deck to your hand.
"Then I equip my Thunder Dragon, with Mist Body." Said Naruto, knowing this way, his dragon was at least safe from being destroyed by battle.
Mist Body
Card Type: Equip Spell
Effect: The equipped monster cannot be destroyed by battle.
"Now attack Behemoth!" Naruto said, as his dragon roared, and fired dual lightning blasts at Behemoth.
"Not so fast, I activate my Trap Card, Beast Rising!" Said Kiba, while triggering his trap.
Beast Rising
Card Type: Continuous Trap
Effect: Once per turn, you can remove from play 1 face-up Beast-Type or Beast-Warrior-Type monster you control to select 1 other face-up Beast-Type or Beast-Warrior-Type monster you control. The selected monster gains the original ATK of the monster removed from play for this effect.
"Now by removing Wild-Horn from play, I can add his original ATK to Behemoth's own, making him stronger than your dragon. But while Mist Body prevent Behemoth from destroying your Thunder Dragon, your life points aren't safe." Kiba said smirking, as Wild-Horn dispersed into particles of light, that were absorbed into Behemoth, who roared as its power shot up.
Behemoth King of All Animals: ATK/2700 DEF/1500 – ATK/4400 DEF/1500
Behemoth roared, as it charged right through the lightning and through Thunder Dragon's now mist body, right towards Naruto, damaging his life points exponentially.
Naruto-2000 – 1600 = 400
Naruto panted at the damage his life points just suffered from that one attack, but knew he needed to risk it, in order for Kiba to reveal his facedown.
"I place one card facedown and end my turn." Said Naruto, while setting one card on the field, and ending his turn.
"Then it's my move again." Kiba said, before drawing a card.
"And I reveal my face-down! Phoenix Wing Wind Blast!" Naruto said, triggering his trap.
Phoenix Wing Wind Blast
Card Type: Normal Trap
Effect: Discard 1 card, then target 1 card your opponent controls; place that target on the top of the Deck.
"Now by discarding one card, I can select one of your cards and place that on the top of your deck. So, say goodbye to Behemoth." Said Naruto, as Kiba's eyes widened at the loss his Monster.
"Damn. Well I still have Spiritual Forest protecting my monsters from being destroyed. So, for now, I'll summon Gazelle the King of Mythical Beasts." Said Kiba, summoning his monster to the field.
Gazelle the King of Mythical Beasts
Attribute: Earth
Level: 4
Card Type: Normal Monster.
Monster Type: Beast
Card Text: This monster moves so fast that it looks like an illusion to mortal eyes.
ATK/1500 DEF/1200
"I end my turn." Kiba said, knowing his Gazelle will likely be destroyed, but he'll managed to survive long enough to redraw Behemoth and use Beast Rising to power up Behemoth again
"Then I draw, and now I'll end this duel." Said Naruto smirking, while Kiba became worried of what cards he now had
"First, I'm using Mystical Space Typhoon, to destroy Beast Rising." Naruto said, with the trap card being destroyed by a swirling cyclone of air.
"Next, I play Polymerization, fusing together my Blue-Eyes White Dragon and my Hunter Dragon, to fusion summon, First of the Dragons!" Naruto said, as his two monsters appeared and fused together, forming the gigantic serpentine dark blue dragon
First of the Dragons

"And thanks to the Mountains field, my dragon becomes even stronger." Said Naruto, as First of the Dragons roared as its power grew.
First of the Dragons: ATK/2700 DEF/2000 – ATK/2900 DEF/2200
"Then I activate the Spell Card Silver's Cry, bringing back one of the monsters I just used. Rise, Blue-Eyes White Dragon!" Naruto said, as Kiba's eyes widened in shock and a little fear, as the legendary dragon appeared on the field.
Silver's Cry
Card Type: Normal Spell
Effect: Target 1 Dragon Normal Monster in your GY; Special Summon that target. You can only activate 1 "Silver's Cry" per turn.
Blue-Eyes White Dragon
Attribute: Light

Card Type: Normal Monster.
Monster Type: Dragon
Card Text: This legendary dragon is a powerful engine of destruction. Virtually invincible, very few have faced this awesome creature and lived to tell the tale.
ATK/3000 DEF/2500
"And just like with my other dragons, Blue-Eyes gets a power up, too." Said Naruto, while smirking.
Blue-Eyes White Dragon: ATK/3000 DEF/2500 – ATK/3200 DEF/2700
"Oh…I'm fucked, aren't I." Kiba stated, knowing he's just lost the duel.
"Right in the down under. Go, First of the Dragons, attack his Gazelle!" Naruto said, as First of the Dragons roared, before unleashing a blast at Gazelle, who survived thanks to Spiritual Forest, but still damaged Kiba's life points.
Kiba-1500 – 1400 = 100
"Now Blue-Eyes, attack Finish off his Gazelle, and end this! Burst Stream of Destruction!" Said Naruto, as Blue-Eyes roared unleashing a powerful blast of energy at the King of Mythical Beasts, this time destroying the monster and taking out the last of Kiba's life points.
Kiba-100 – 1500 = -1400
"Ah man, I was so close." Kiba said, as they exited the Duel Arena.
"Don't beat yourself up too bad, that was a really close duel. I just managed to get the luck of the draw. If I hadn't been able to take out your Beast Rising and Behemoth, I'm sure you would have won." Said Naruto, having gotten very luck, with the cards he drew.
"Thanks, and here you go." Kiba said, handing Naruto his Star Chips, which Naruto took gratefully, at now being more than halfway to ten.
"Good luck in the rest of the tournament. Though I hope we'll be able to have a rematch, where I will win next time." Said Kiba, while smirking, which Naruto returned as they shook hands.
"We'll see." Naruto replied, before he and Rin parted ways with Kiba.
"I see you've made some upgrades to your deck." Stated Rin, knowing Naruto must have added more cards to better suit the addition of the Blue-Eyes White Dragon.
"Yeah I have. I'm just glad to see the changes have worked well with Blue-Eyes." Naruto replied, since that was the first time he's tested out the new cards, since getting the Blue-Eyes.
"When this over, we are definitely having a rematch." Rin said, eager to duel Naruto again, along with seeing about making her own upgrades to her deck.
"Anytime, anywhere." Said Naruto, as the two smirked at each other.
With that done, the two set off to continue exploring the island, and collecting Star Chips.
So, what did you think, good. Yep we learn Rin is a researcher into the occult and supernatural with her being aware of the Millennium Items, along with Kaiba being more accepting of magics existence, along with learning more about her backstory as well. Along with her and Naruto bonding over their desire to protect their siblings. We then see the first Duelist they'll challenge, with it being Shinji Matou, who's just as arrogant as his Fate-self along with obsessing with making Rin one of his girls, leading to him challenging her to a duel. But Shinji's skill as a Duelist is the same as his skills as a Master, which is to say terrible and pathetic as Nero put it. We then go on to Naruto's own duel against Kiba Inuzuka, with Naruto just managing to pull out a win, wit Kiba being a better sportsman than Shinji was. So, review if you liked go away if you didn't.
Storm out
