Chapter 313 The Legendary Dragon Timaeocritia, The Combined Strength of President Yuuki (Combined Chapter)
As soon as Yugi pulled out the legendary dragon card with not a single word on it, Kagura knew that Yugi was about to start using his cheat codes.
Sure enough, a giant blue-green dragon, somewhat resembling a lizard, appeared and roared, "I activate the effect of [Eye of Timaeus]!"
"The Legendary Dragon! Fusion with the [Black Magician]!"
The Black Magician, following orders, was drawn into a vortex of fusion with the legendary dragon. The two monsters merged and ultimately transformed into—
The Black Magician is standing on the back of Timaeus the Dragon.
Kagura Kiryu: ————
Yes, that makes sense. When one monster stands on the back of another, it becomes a completely new monster.
"Descend, Level 8 [Spell Dragon]!"
The legendary dragon roared and looked at Kagura with a completely unfriendly expression, saying, "So you're the spokesperson for Orichalcos, huh?"
[Cursed Dragon, Level 8, Dark Attribute, Dragon Type, Attack 2900, Fusion Monster.]
"Next, I activate the effect of [Spell Dragon]! When this card is Special Summoned, banish all Spell Cards in my Graveyard! This card gains 300 ATK for each Spell Card banished! (Original effect)"
Kagura tried hard to control the twitching at the corner of her mouth. The effect of this thing was not exactly the same as that of the physical card; it was completely unrelated.
After being made into a physical card, this card's effect changed to: When Special Summoned, banish any number of Spell Cards from both players' Graveyards, and gain ATK 100 times the number of banished cards.
The difference between increasing attack power by 100 and 300 is quite significant. In the original game, the attack power could easily reach four or five thousand, but this is not possible in the physical card version.
However, at least it has the ability to banish spell cards from the opponent's graveyard, so it's better than nothing.
A cold, furious glint flashed in Wang Yang's eyes: "I banish all nine Spell Cards from my Graveyard! Increase the ATK of [Spell Dragon] by 2700!"
[Spell Dragon, Attack Power 2900 → Attack Power 5600]
"Attack power 5600!?"
President Kaiba looked at the dragon covered in golden runes in surprise: "It's even stronger than [Ultimate Dragon Knight]!"
Is its attack power even higher?
"Game, you—"
In Seto Kaiba's memory, Yugi's duels were more about technique and he wasn't good at this kind of powerful, fast-paced attack.
"Kaiba, this duel is a duel that stakes the lives of all humanity!"
King Yang's gaze swept towards the throne in the great hall behind Kagura, and he seemed to see Dartz and the Serpent God sneering through him.
"Everything I care about is on the line for this duel! Kaiba, I'm begging you! Give me your all!"
President Kaiba's pupils widened for a moment, then he suddenly chuckled, "That doesn't sound like something you'd say! Game!"
"But! I won't accept it!"
"I will ascend to the pinnacle of the dueling path alone! Kagura is the mountain I must overcome! I am not here to help you! I am only here to defeat my enemy!"
The president, in his classic arrogant and stubborn manner, reluctantly agreed to Wang Yang's request for cooperation.
Wang Yang paused for a moment, then continued firmly, "Next... I'll activate this card! [Monster Resurrection]!"
In this duel, all the duelists used this legendary spell card, [Monster Reborn]!
It truly lives up to its reputation as the second epic masterpiece of Yu-Gi-Oh!. In the eighth season of Yu-Gi-Oh!, everyone was vying for the legendary card that supposedly had the power to destroy the universe. It was truly terrifying.
"Rise from the graveyard, [Dark Magician]!"
The resurrection symbol flashed again, and the magician who had just been sent to the graveyard stepped forward. It was unclear which one was the clone and which one was the original, the one standing behind the legendary dragon.
[Dark Magician, Attack Power 2500]
"Then! I activate this spell card! [Ace of Grails]!"
Everyone looked at Wang Yang in shock: "This card... could it be?!"
Wang Yang's gaze turned sorrowful for a moment, then was replaced by determination: "That's right, this is also a card entrusted to me by Jonouchi!"
"Kagura! You know the effect of this card, right? After this card is activated, I flip a coin. If it lands heads, I draw two cards from my deck."
"If it's the back side, the opponent draws two cards from their deck!"
"Kagura! Let this card represent Jonouchi's will and decide our fate!"
Kagura: ————
There were too many things to complain about, and he didn't know what to say first.
First of all, from a card player's perspective, this card should already be in the hand before the activation of [Heavenly Treasure], so why not set this card face down before using Heavenly Treasure to draw six cards?
This way you can draw one more card.
Moreover, the rules for this battle are now in full swing, so the other side can point at President Kaiba, not just me!
Even if you're unlucky, your teammates can still draw two cards, so you won't lose out either way.
Well, it's not entirely incomprehensible. After all, in anime duels, the impact of overwhelming the opponent in terms of momentum is far greater than the loss of one or two cards than simply having some resources.
This kind of fateful showdown is obviously more melodramatic, but also more cool.
The coin fell, and under everyone's tense gaze, it landed heads up. Wang Yang's serious expression finally softened into a slight smile.
"I'm drawing two cards from my deck!"
Two cards were added to his hand. Holding three cards, King Yu pondered for a moment, then immediately commanded, "Enter the battle phase!"
"[Cursed Dragon], attack [Red-Eyes Dragon Knight]!"
"Magic Destruction!"
The legendary dragon, its body wrapped in golden runes, opened its mouth and unleashed a shockwave infused with the magic of the Dark Magician, turning its own kind against the Red-Eyes Dragon Knight, who was also a Dark Magician.
The Red-Eyes Dragon Knight let out a muffled groan and vanished into specks of light, but the spreading shockwave failed to harm Kagura in the slightest.
The big, prickly chestnut-shaped eye, which looked like a weakling, absorbed all the impact and loyally protected its new master.
"What?!"
President Wang and the other person were both shocked. Kagura said coldly, "The effect of [Orichalcos Kidara] is that as long as this card is on the field in Attack Position, the damage caused by monster battles is 0 to me."
"It's an effect of immunity to damage?"
Wang Yang's surprise lasted only a short time. He continued, "So, [the Dark Magician], regarding […]…"
[Orichalcos Chidara] Attack!
"Dark Magician!"
The Black Magician, who was transformed from the King's most loyal servant, raised his staff and sent a stream of purple magic toward the big eye.
Kagura reacted swiftly, waving her hand; "Activate the face-down card! Continuous Trap [Dimensional Guardian]!"
"Target an Attack Position monster to activate this effect. As long as this card is in the back row, the targeted monster cannot be destroyed by battle or effect!"
"I choose my player, [Orichalcos Chidara]!"
The green protective charm resisted the onslaught of destruction, while the large eye absorbed all the shockwaves.
In short, they were completely unharmed.
"So that's how it is. This is the shield that provides complete defense?"
Wang Yang's expression grew even more solemn. He drew a card from his hand: "Set one card face down, end of turn."
The card is placed face down, and the turn's operation is now in the president's hands.
"My turn, draw a card!"
President Kaiba pulled out a card, holding a full seven cards, and said that he had never fought such a wealthy battle in his life.
Shouldn't we immediately launch a relentless, resource-intensive, and overwhelming offensive?
"Hahahahaha!"
The president let out his classic three-part laugh and drew a card from his hand: "If you have no monsters on your field, you can Special Summon this card directly from your hand!"
"Come forth! [Bloody Orc Emperor]!"
A blue-skinned orc, wielding a jagged giant blade in both hands and wearing a spiked helmet, appeared on the field with his white teeth protruding like a zombie.
[Bloody Beastman Emperor, Level 5, Dark Attribute, Beast Warrior Race, Attack Power 1900, Effect Monster.]
Kagura raised an eyebrow in surprise. The president had really struck it rich. After receiving the future card data from Kagura last time, the deck had improved significantly.
This card is the one used by the president in the Dark Side of Dimensions. It is the evolved form of the Classic Monster, a Level 4 Normal Monster with 1900 ATK, called "Bloody Beastman" (also known as "Bloody Axe Beastman").
Not only does it have the ability to summon itself, but it also has the ability to increase the attack power of an opponent's monster by 500 after it is destroyed in battle, and decrease the attack power of that monster by 500 when it is destroyed in battle, which is quite good for this era.
Kaiba's president continued, "Next, I'll summon my ally for justice! [Ally of Justice. Kaiba Man]!"
A confident man who looked remarkably like President Kaiba jumped onto the Duel Disk, revealing his gleaming white teeth.
【Ally of Justice. Seahorse, Level 3, Light Attribute, Warrior Type, ATK 200, Effect Monster.】
Everyone looked at Kaiba Man, then at Kaiba President, and had a complex expression that said, "You finally printed yourself as a card."
But President Kaiba showed no shame at being surrounded by onlookers, and was full of satisfaction with his card.
"Next, I activate the effect of [Ally of Justice - Kaiba], Tribute this card, and Special Summon 1 [Blue-Eyes White Dragon] from my hand!"
"Come! My soul! My pride! [Blue-Eyes White Dragon]!"
The president's ace monster, the Blue-Eyes White Dragon, makes a reappearance, letting out a majestic roar.
Blue-Eyes White Dragon, Attack Power 3000
"Hahaha! Now I'll cover up a card!"
The club president inserted a card into the duel disk, then raised another card: "Come! [Fang of Critia]! Lend me your power!"
"I activate the effect of [Fang of Critia], fusing it with my face-down Trap Card [Tyrant Wing]!"
Kaiba's Legendary Dragon is the most unique of the three Legendary Dragons, as it can be fused with Trap Cards to create a completely new monster, making it extremely powerful.
"Come on! Level 8! [Tyrant Storm Dragon]!"
With wings of light and protruding fangs, the dark brown dragon swung its forked tail, and a gem that seemed to emit a blue glow was embedded in its forehead.
[Tyrant Storm Dragon, Level 8, Light Attribute, Dragon Race, ATK 2900, Fusion Monster.]
The two legendary dragons stood side by side, both originally possessing an attack power of 2900, which truly shows they were of the same origin.
"【Tyrant Blast Dragon】Can attack each of the opponent's monsters once!"
Kaiba, the company president, shouted, "But I'm going to activate another effect of this card! I'll equip this card to a monster on my field as an Equip Card!"
"I'll equip this card to the [Blue-Eyes White Dragon] on my field!"
The bodies of the Blue-Eyes White Dragon and the Tyrant Storm Dragon merged, and their wings transformed into wings of light.
"Monsters equipped with [Tyrant Blast Dragon] gain 400 ATK and DEF, and can attack 3 times during the same Battle Phase!"
[Blue-Eyes White Dragon, Attack Power 3000 → Attack Power 3400.]
Later, a card was even printed specifically for this form, called "Blue-Eyes Tyrant Dragon," but now it's just a simple piece of equipment.
"However, that monster in the Kagura arena can defend against battle damage, so even if it can attack three times—"
As one of the cheerleaders with a high level of fighting skills, Peacock Dance immediately saw the problem.
But President Kaiba burst into laughter: "Hahahaha! I saw through the flaw in that effect a long time ago."
"【Orichalcos Kidara】is only immune to battle damage between monsters! But this card I'm activating can bypass that effect!"
"Quick-Play Spell! [Energy Reflection] (Original Card)! Tribute 1 of your monsters! This turn, your monsters can attack your opponent directly!"
"I unleash [Bloody Orc Emperor]! Activate this effect!"
A small dart grazed Kagura's body and landed on the floor of the main hall behind her, its tail slowly opening up as if sending a signal like a spy.
"Hahahaha! At least if the Blue-Eyes White Dragon aims its attack at that spot, I can defeat you! Kagura!"
In the original story, the president also activated this card, and was immediately affected by the effect of the second layer of Orichalcos's barrier, instantly falling into a trap.
But Kagura clearly didn't want Kaiba to fall into this small pitfall; instead, she prepared a big one for him.
"Enter battle—"
"This moment!"
Kagura suddenly interrupted him in a low, cold voice: "I activate the Trap Card, [Taunt]!"
"During the first phase of your opponent's turn, you can target 1 monster you control. As long as that monster is on the field, your opponent must attack that monster this turn!"
President Kaiba exclaimed in surprise, "Wh-what!?"
His carefully laid-out tactics were so easily neutralized?
That damned Kagura! Did she really plan all this all along?
After a moment of wild imagination, President Kaiba clicked his tongue and inserted his last card into the Duel Disk: "I activate Continuous Spell, [The Card of Lamentation]! (Original Card)"
"When your monster attacks but fails to destroy your opponent's monster, draw 1 card from your Deck!"
"Entering battle phase!"
Kaiba Corporation President Kaiba gave the order: "Blue-Eyes White Dragon, attack Orichalcos Chidara!"
"Destructive Explosive Gale Bullet!"
A gust of wind was launched, its destructive power was neutralized by the amulet, and the shockwave was absorbed by the big eye.
That perfectly negated the effect, but President Kaiba continued, "I activate the effect of [Lamentation Treasure] and draw one card from my deck."
"Then comes the second shot, and the third shot!"
After firing two Gale Bullets, President Kaiba replenished his hand with two more cards, glanced at them, and clicked his tongue: "Face three cards, end turn!"
