Chapter 227: Kaiba the Scum Who Forced a Draw
Seeing that after a wild spray, the [Gatling Ghoul] only managed to hit Pandora twice, [Sky Soaring Dragon Knight] and [Dark Knight] looked at it with disdain, as if questioning, "Hey little bro, what's up with you?"
Although its appearance was fierce, the [Gatling Ghoul] couldn't help but feel a bit awkward seeing its terrible aim.
"Next, [Gatling Ghoul], attack [Dark Magician]." Hayato also glanced at the [Gatling Ghoul], hinting with his eyes that he would give it one more chance.
The [Gatling Ghoul] nodded firmly. Then, to Hayato and the others' surprise, to prevent missing again, it actually swung the machine gun in its hand like a hammer, smashing it fiercely onto the [Dark Magician]'s face!
[Pandora: 600 → 200 LP]
"Ugh!"
Although Hayato hadn't activated a [Dark Game], the cumulative 3800 points of [Damage] dealt had left Pandora utterly exhausted from the impact simulated by the [Duel Disk]. Though panting heavily, a smile appeared on his face: "You've used up all your methods. Next [Turn], next [Turn] is when I win."
But Hayato shook his head: "No, you don't have a next [Turn]."
For a moment, both Pandora across from him and the three [Monster]s on Hayato's own [Field] thought of a possibility and panicked simultaneously.
"M-Masaka!" Pandora suddenly remembered that in Hayato's [Information], it was written that this guy's biggest characteristics, besides liking to suddenly say chuunibyou-like things during [Duel]s, using varied [Deck] series, and often setting a large number of [Trap Card]s himself after criticizing others for using too many [Trap Card]s, was one more thing: he seemed to have a fondness for [Tribute]ing his own [Monster]s?
[Soul-Eating Demon Blade], [Power of Heritage], [Mysterious Chinese Pot], [Spiritual Energy Absorption], etc. The [Deck] [Information] Hayato had revealed contained a large number of [Card]s that [Tribute] his own [Monster]s. So, after hearing Hayato's words, it was inevitable that Pandora would think of a possibility:
"Could it be, could it be that your last [Card] is [Spiritual Energy Absorption]?!"
"Huh? How did you know I have that [Card] in my [Deck]? But unfortunately, you guessed wrong."
Hearing Hayato say this, Pandora, [Gatling Ghoul], and the two [Gaia The Fierce Knight]s all breathed a sigh of relief in unison.
Then, with expressions of synchronized terror, Hayato revealed the [Card] in his [Hand]: "Ta-da! I activate the invincible [Thunder Light Crush]!"
"By [Tribute]ing all [Monster]s on my [Field], I inflict [Damage] to you equal to the number of [Tribute]d [Monster]s x 300!"
Ignoring the three [Monster]s' dying [Struggle], Hayato mercilessly swept them all into the [Graveyard], causing them to transform into dazzling thunder light on the [Field] and descend upon Pandora.
"Ugh ah ah ah!!!"
[Pandora: 200 LP → 0]
Almost at the exact same moment Hayato activated [Thunder Light Crush] to completely deplete Pandora's [Life Points], Kaiba on the other [Duel Arena] also decided the outcome of his [Duel] with Epimetheus.
"You played with my [Blue-Eyes], which I regard as my [Soul], and defiled my [Dignity]. I will make you pay for this sin with everything!" Looking at his three [Blue-Eyes White Dragon]s on his [Field], each bound by [Curse of Darkness], [Curse of the Six-Pointed Star], and [Torture Wheel], unable to [Attack], Kaiba glanced at his remaining 600 [Life Points] and drew a [Card].
Due to the [Effect] of [Torture Wheel], his [Life Points] were deducted again.
[Kaiba: 600 → 100 LP]
"Struggle in vain, Seto Kaiba, this is your final, pathetic end!" With a [Giant Dragon] on his [Field] that looked extremely similar to [Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon], except its skin was a moldy green color, Epimetheus laughed wildly, "Then I will step over your corpse and seize all your glory!"
"Delusional nonsense. You're just a fourth-rate [Duelist] with a third-rate [Deck]. If you took away the fake [Blue-Eyes White Dragon]s you made, you wouldn't even rank as a fifth-rate [Deck]!" Kaiba said, activating the [Card] in his [Hand], "[Spell Card] [Card of Demise]! I draw [Card]s from my [Deck] until I have 5 [Card]s in my [Hand]."
"As a condition, at the start of my 5th [Standby Phase] after this [Card]'s activation, I must send my entire [Hand] to the [Graveyard]!" Looking at the [Card]s he drew, Kaiba revealed a confident smile, "Hmph, it seems [Destiny] stands with me whenever I wish it. I will end this boring [Duel] this [Turn]!"
"I activate the [Effect] of [King of the Swamp] from my [Hand]! By [Discard]ing it from my [Hand], I add the [Fusion] [Spell Card] from my [Deck] to my [Hand]!"
"Then, I activate [Fusion]! Return once more, Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon!!!"
Epimetheus smirked: "Oh? Are you summoning [Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon]? You really haven't learned your lesson, Seto Kaiba. Have you forgotten that your [Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon] was easily [Destroyed by Battle] by my [Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon] just now?!"
On Epimetheus's [Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon], an [Equip Spell Card], [Fighting Spirit], was equipped. Not only could it increase [Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon]'s [Attack Points] by 300 for each [Monster] on the opponent's [Field], but it could also be used as a substitute when the equipped [Monster] was [Destroyed by Battle].
Just now, after Kaiba [Summon]ed [Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon], Epimetheus also [Summon]ed his [Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon], and then used this [Card] to make his [Ultimate Dragon]'s [Attack Points] surpass Kaiba's. If Kaiba hadn't set a [De-Fusion], he might have already lost.
And now, a vortex appeared on Kaiba's [Field], sucking all three [Blue-Eyes] into it. [Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon] reappeared on Kaiba's [Field].
"This is the most dazzling light of the strongest [Dragon]! Watch closely, you scumbag, and engrave the glory of the true [Blue-Eyes] into your [Soul]!" Kaiba said, giving the command, "[Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon], [Attack] that imposter across the way!"
"Hahaha, Seto Kaiba, have you lost your mind from the continuous setbacks?" Although his [Hand] and [Back Row] were empty except for [Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon] and [Fighting Spirit], Epimetheus was still quite confident, because he believed his [Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon] was [Invincible].
"Although the number of [Monster]s on your [Field] decreased because [Blue-Eyes] was used for [Fusion], my [Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon]'s [Attack Points] are still higher than your [Blue-Eyes]!"
[Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon] [ATK 4800]
[Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon] [ATK 4500]
Watching the white [Dragon Breath] spewed by the two [Monster]s collide, with the point of collision slowly pushing towards his side, Kaiba's face showed no sign of panic.
"Hmph! Fool, with such limited vision, this is all you'll ever amount to!" Kaiba said, playing the [Card] in his [Hand], "[Quick-Play Spell Card], [Duel Fusion]! Can be activated when my [Fusion Monster] battles your [Monster]!"
"Increase the [Attack Points] of [Blue-Eyes] by the value of your [Monster]'s [Attack Points]!"
"Nani!"
The opposing [Dragon Breath]s, which had been clashing, suddenly merged together as Kaiba activated the [Card]. [Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon]'s [Attack] completely awakened the "feminine" within [Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon], making even its [Attack] weak and powerless. It was swallowed by [Blue-Eyes] and surged back towards its owner!
[Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon] [ATK 4500 → 9300]
"Impossible! I am the [White Dragon Master] of the [Ghouls]! I am the strongest [Dragon] user!" Under Epimetheus's disbelieving gaze, [Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon]'s breath engulfed [Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon] and then struck him directly. The [Ultimate Power] that surpassed a [Duelist]'s [Life Points] hit him squarely, sending him flying!
[Epimetheus: 4000 LP → 0]
On the two [Duel Arena]s, the images of the [Duel Monsters] slowly disappeared almost simultaneously. Hayato and Kaiba exchanged glances:
"Too bad, I got a point first."
"Where did you learn math? That's clearly a draw!"
These two [Duel]s theoretically didn't contribute much to the plot's progression, but they served more to show what kind of broken [Card]s, I mean, new [Tamashii], the protagonist's [Deck] gained during these "blank few months".
Also, to improve his favorability with Kaiba, preparing for new [Card Creation].
Also, by the way, the [Female Lead] is definitely Ishizu, Ishizu is my wife.
Also, there's another chapter below.
Also, also, how about some [Recommendation Ticket]s?

Looking at his three [Blue-Eyes White Dragon]s on his [Field], each bound by [Curse of Darkness], [Curse of the Six-Pointed Star], and [Torture Wheel], unable to [Attack], Kaiba glanced at his remaining 600 [Life Points] and drew a [Card].
Due to the [Effect] of [Torture Wheel], his [Life Points] were deducted again.
[Kaiba: 600 → 100 LP]
"Struggle in vain, Seto Kaiba, this is your final, pathetic end!" With a [Giant Dragon] on his [Field] that looked extremely similar to [Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon], except its skin was a moldy green color, Epimetheus laughed wildly, "Then I will step over your corpse and seize all your glory!"
