Yu - Gi - Oh ! Duelist - Duel 022 " The Invisible Cards " is the twenty - second chapter of " Yu - Gi - Oh ! Duelist " and the eighty - first chapter of " Yu - Gi - Oh ! " . Summary . Dark Yugi and the Player Killer enter the Battle Box to start their Duel . Mai warns Dark Yugi that his opponent is a Player Killer , who roams the island taking Star Chips from the tournament Duelists . Dark Yugi ' s opponent asserts that Mai is correct . He says that Industrial Illusions sent him , but he is not just any Player Killer , he is the Player Killer of Darkness . Since the tournament rules require Duelists to win Star Chips from each other , Dark Yugi wonders why Pegasus would hire someone to interfere with the game . The Player Killer of Darkness explains that Duelists who collect ten Star Chips can advance to Pegasus Castle for the final rounds , but there can only be four finalists . Dark Yugi recalls that there are forty participants , each of whom were given two Star Chips . This is a total of eighty Star Chips , only forty of which are needed for the finals , so Dark Yugi deduces that it is the Player Killers ' mission to take the other forty Star Chips . The Player Killer of Darkness says that he has taken the Star Chips from eight Duelists so far tonight , but Pegasus ' most important command is to take out Yugi . He is shocked that there is such a reward on the head of a little child , but is certain he is going to claim it . Dark Yugi knows the reason is that Pegasus will gain control of KaibaCorp if Yugi is defeated . The Player Killer says that if he beats Yugi now , the tournament may as well end and explains that Pegasus can afford to pay the prize money , but if his plan works he will not have to . Mai is shocked to hear that they are just Pegasus ' guinea pigs . The Player Killer continues and explains that if Yugi is defeated , Pegasus ' plan is then to have the Player Killers eliminate the remaining participants and win the tournament . After that Industrial Illusions will have no more competition and no more masters like Yugi will arise . Dark Yugi laughs that the Player Killer is dreaming if he thinks he can win . Dark Yugi vows to beat Pegasus with his bare hands and cards . The Player Killer thinks that Dark Yugi is a fool for thinking he can win , as nobody can defeat his " Darkness " . The Player Killer laughs that night falls quickly on the island , but there is no sleep for Duelists ; while they lie in their beds with their guards down , his darkness creeps in and destroys them , like Mai . Mai thinks that having lost , she is now disqualified and will have to leave the island , ending her dream of Dueling Yugi . However Dark Yugi tells Mai not to worry as he will win her Star Chips back . Mai is surprised and wonders why Yugi would do that for her . Dark Yugi tells the Player Killer that attacking under the cover of the night is the act of a coward . He does not consider the Player Killer to be a Duelist , but sees him as a thief . He vows to teach him that a thief cannot take the life of a real Duelist . Dark Yugi says that he will bet all six of his Star Chips and the Player Killer will bet the eight he took from Mai . To make up for the difference , he says that he will bet his life . The Player Killer likes the offer but is skeptical , so in lieu of a guarantee , he shoots a wire out of his Duel Disk , which wraps around Dark Yugi ' s neck . He laughs that some Duelists try to run out of fear , but that wire is used to make sure they cannot get away . He says that if he wins , he will choke Dark Yugi to death and maybe twice to get his two Star Chips worth . This worries Anzu and Mai asks how low the Player Killers can be . Dark Yugi is fine with the conditions , but adds that the Player Killer will have to face a Penalty Game if he loses . Anzu begs for Dark Yugi to win . Mai is no longer concerned about herself and thinks that Dark Yugi has to win . The Player Killer comments on Dark Yugi having a crowd to cheer for him and says that he has a friend too ; the darkness itself . The Player Killer of Darkness goes first and Summon s " Castle of Dark Illusions " . The castle hovers over the field and causes the Player Killer ' s side of the field to become engulfed in darkness , preventing Dark Yugi from seeing any of the Player Killer ' s cards and makes it difficult to even see the Player Killer . Mai warns Dark Yugi to watch out as the Darkness is what defeated her " Harpie s " . The Player Killer laughs that Dark Yugi ' s monsters do not get their Field Power Source at night , but his dark cards get infinite strength . He urges Dark Yugi to play any card and says that the darkness will bury him . Not knowing what the Player Killer is planning , Dark Yugi decides to be cautious and Summons " Celtic Guardian " in Defense Mode . The Player Killer Summons a card , which hides in the darkness . It attack s and destroy s " Celtic Guardian " with its " Dark Absolute " attack . Mai grits her teeth and comments that his technique is so dirty . Dark Yugi thinks to himself that the obvious way to get rid of the darkness is to remove the " Castle of Dark Illusions " . However he does not have anything to break through its 2500 DEF . He thinks that there has to be a way to defeat it and plays " Winged Dragon , Guardian of the Fortress " in Defense Mode . Rather than attacking , the Player Killer Summons another monster , which hides in the darkness . All that Dark Yugi can see are its gleaming eyes . Dark Yugi thinks that there might be a way to shine light on the situation . He is unsure if it will work , but thinks he must try . He switches " Winged Dragon , Guardian of the Fortress " to Attack Mode and has it attack into the darkness with " Fireball Barrage " . This briefly lights up the field giving him a glimpse of the Player Killer ' s monsters , " Barox " and " Dark Chimera " . Dark Yugi can light up the field for an instance , but cannot attack at the same time , the Player Killer explains . Dark Yugi sees that he is right ; he cannot aim at what he cannot see . The Player Killer gets one of his monsters to attack and destroy " Winged Dragon , Guardian of the Fortress " with a " Dark Absolute " attack , dropping Dark Yugi ' s Life Points to 1600 . He says that Yugi is as good as dead , the darkness is his home and while he is in it , he is invincible . Dark Yugi laughs that the Player Killer may be happy to be in the darkness now , but doubts he would like to be in it forever . Even though the darkness covers the Player Killer ' s evil face , Dark Yugi says that he will have to see it again , when he shuts down his game . He smiles that he has found a way to beat the darkness . Holding " Swords of Revealing Light " , Dark Yugi says that that card is the key and the Player Killer ' s life ends in five turns . He warns him to get ready as he will show him the true darkness he will wish he never knew . Featured cards . The following cards appeared in this chapter . Cards in italics debuted here .
