Chapter 358 Yusei's Defeat
In the end, the Nitrogen Warrior walked onto the enemy's field amidst Yusei's tearful gaze and raised his iron fist at Yusei.
[Nitrogen Warrior, Attack Power 2800]
"Furthermore, monsters equipped with this card will gain 1000 ATK and DEF!"
[Nitrogen Warrior, Attack Power 2800 → Attack Power 3800]
"Attack power—3800!?"
Yusei never expected that his monster would become even stronger after the cow took it away. This gave him a strange sense of resentment, as if his wife had run off with someone else and was living a better life than before.
Yusei Fudo couldn't help but slap his own face, stopping this strange way of thinking.
Is this the king's method? It's infuriating and leads to misjudgment; it's a truly terrifying tactic.
However, Yusei, being a cold and expressionless man, would never show any signs of losing his composure.
Kagura: "Then I activate the equipment spell! [Steal]!"
The Tauren three-piece set has made its debut in the game; this is truly a cause for celebration!
However, our future human Yusei clearly did not recognize the card, but just from the name, he inexplicably felt a very bad premonition.
Kagura: "I'm equipping this card to your [Junk Berserker]! Gain control of that card!"
Yusei: ————! ?
He knows it!
Yusei's expression involuntarily darkened further, but he waved his hand: "At this very moment! I activate my Trap Card! [Synchro Barrier]!"
"Tribute 1 Synchro Monster you control to activate this effect; all damage you take becomes 0 until the End Phase of your next turn!"
Yusei gritted his teeth: "I'll unleash my [Junk Berserker] on the field! This will prevent me from taking damage for the next two turns!"
This is Yusei's last resort to save his life, but this card requires the release of a Synchro Monster, making it a desperate last-ditch effort.
However, it's always better to be free than to be bullied.
[Scrap Berserker] vanished as a sacrifice, and Yusei finally breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that at least he had survived this round.
Next round —
Yusei suddenly looked up and met Kagura's slightly teasing gaze, and his heart skipped a beat.
Kagura waved her hand, and the face-down card at her feet immediately flipped open: "Counter Trap, [The Thief's Seven Tools] activated!"
"When a Trap Card is activated, 1000 Life Points must be paid to activate it; that activation is negated and destroyed!"
"I will pay 1000 HP to nullify and destroy your Synchro Barrier!"
[Kagura Kiryu, LP1200→LP200]
Yusei's expression shifted from surprise to dejection in an instant, before he finally put down the Duel Disk.
It’s over.
The cards on the field crackled with electricity and exploded with a bang.
Kagura waved her hand: "Enter battle phase!"
"First up is [Summoned Beast. Merkaba]! It attacks the enemy directly!"
The mechanical angel, wielding a staff and a longsword, swooped down again, raising its sword to slash at Yusei. A flicker of light crossed Yusei's eyes, but he resolutely opened his palm: "Activate the face-down card! Trap Card! [Scrap Scarecrow]!"
"When your opponent's monster declares an attack, target that attacking monster and negate that attack. After activation, this card is not sent to the Graveyard, but is Set immediately!"
The scrap metal cross scarecrow bounced up again, blocking [Summoned Beast. Merkaba], sparks flying from the friction of metal.
The [Scrap Iron Scarecrow] fell down again and transformed back into a card.
The summoned beast, Merkaba, was parried and took a step back.
Kagura waved her hand dismissively: "Next up is the [Nitrogen Warrior]! Attack your former master!"
"Explosive Fist!"
[Nitrogen Warrior] raises his flaming fists, looking full of energy.
I will strike my master! I will transform into Fire Fist Ace!
Yusei: ?
As the [Nitrogen Warrior] charged toward him with nitrogen-fueled acceleration, countless thoughts flashed through Yusei Fudo's mind, ultimately culminating in a deep sigh.
Tired, destroy it.
[Nitrogen Warrior] punched Yusei, sending him flying several meters backward. Lying on the cold ground, he looked at the azure sky, feeling as if a surge of anger was trapped in his heart.
So this is what duels in the Duel King competition are like? Combining brute force with underhanded tactics, always winning by surprising the opponent?
This tactic felt strangely familiar, and Yusei quickly realized why: it was a tactic he was good at.
Facing this Duel King is like encountering a larger version of yourself in the underworld; in the same field, the stronger one is always the fastest to subdue the weaker one.
Fudo Yusei finally understood why he lost. On one hand, the king was too strong, and on the other hand, he was too impatient and lost some of his former composure.
Well, to put it simply, they didn't dig enough pits; they should have dug more.
Fudo Yusei suddenly had a sudden realization and rediscovered his true self.
Soon, a shadow fell upon him, and the white-haired boy smiled gently, tilted his head, and extended his hand in a friendly manner: "Are you alright?"
Fudo Yusei: ————
Isn't it obvious whether he's alright or not just by looking at him?
Even though Fudo Yusei saw Kagura Kiryu's face, he reacted as if he had PTSD.
But he managed to suppress the urge.
He could tell from the duel just now that although this king was—well, a little bit—he was definitely not a particularly vicious or evil character.
They just like to outmaneuver their opponents tactically. While this isn't good, it's not a major problem, except that it can easily leave psychological scars on their opponents.
With that thought in mind, Fudo Yusei finally made up his mind, grasped Kagura's hand, and slowly stood up.
He looked at Kagura, whose gaze held a hint of curiosity, and bowed deeply: "I'm so sorry, Mr. Kagura!"
Kagura was startled, mainly because she didn't really like the Japanese habit of bowing so often. She jumped aside a little and subconsciously said politely, "It's alright, it's alright."
Yusei Fudo showed no intention of getting up. This protagonist of the third part was remarkably composed and willing to admit his mistakes: "No, this is my fault. Releasing anger and malice towards an innocent person like you was because I was blinded by the hatred in my heart!"
"From the duel just now, I have sensed your true feelings, Mr. Kagura. You are not a bad person. I apologize to you again."
Kagura: ————
He was so embarrassed by this cringeworthy scene, which he'd only ever seen in TV dramas, that he practically dug a three-bedroom apartment out of his toes on the spot.
Kagura managed to persuade Yusei to stop bowing, thus saving his toes.
Yosaki Mio looked at Kagura, then at Yusei, and inexplicably felt a sense of chemistry between them.
No way, how can a man compete with me? Kagura and I are definitely a better match!
Jaden Yuki stood happily with Kagura: "Hehehe, the misunderstanding is finally cleared up, that's great!"
As soon as he finished speaking, his stomach started growling.
Jaden Yuki scratched his head sheepishly: "Um, Kagura-san, would you mind if I mooched a meal?"
Kagura Kiryu: ————
