Chapter 650: The Invincible Buff is Applied
After fully revealing its form, the emblem of the Seal of Orichalcos appeared on the forehead of Orichalcos Gigas, and its already terrifying ATK rose again.
Orichalcos Gigas [ATK 14000 → 14500]
"ATK 14500?!"
Looking at the giant monster before him, which had a rounded build and closely resembled the clay figures often seen in various ACG works, Joey Wheeler couldn't help but grumble before marveling at its exaggerated ATK: "What the heck, isn't that an Ancient God Beast!"
Dartz's smile froze for a moment, and he looked at Joey Wheeler with annoyance, correcting him, "It's Orichalcos Gigas!"
"What Orichalcos Gigas? It's clearly an Ancient God Beast, even if the color is a bit different, like bronze-green."
Hearing that Joey Wheeler seemed to be stubbornly insisting that Dartz had summoned the so-called "Ancient God Beast" because he had seen a similar image on television, a vein nearly popped on Dartz's forehead.
This guy named Joey Wheeler, putting aside his dueling skill in Duel Monsters, really had a knack for annoying people. Dartz felt like his stable composure of ten thousand years was about to be broken by Joey Wheeler. He finally understood the frustration Joey Wheeler always got when his name was mispronounced before.
Yugi, however, had some knowledge. He explained to Joey Wheeler that the "Ancient God Beast" in the TV anime "Digi-O-Mon" was designed based on clay figures discovered in archaeological ruins, which finally convinced Joey Wheeler that what was before him was indeed a Duel Monster and not "Digi-O-Mon" invading the Human World.
"But, that monster... that exaggerated ATK... what is it?" Looking at the giant Orichalcos Gigas, Yugi muttered to himself with a serious expression.
"What's there to be surprised about, Nameless Pharaoh? Isn't the powerful ATK of Orichalcos Gigas provided by you?"
Dartz heard Yugi's query and, as always, answered it, explaining, "Orichalcos Gigas is the next form of Orichalcos Shunoros. It cannot be Normal Summoned; it can only be Special Summoned by its effect when Orichalcos Shunoros is destroyed."
"The ATK of Orichalcos Gigas is determined by the total damage that Orichalcos Shunoros absorbed before," Dartz said, spreading his arms and laughing loudly. "The more you tried to destroy Orichalcos Shunoros with power, the more your hatred instead gave birth to this monster filled with evil power!"
"Tsk, talking about our hatred... Didn't you actively use Manju of the Ten Thousand Hands and Giant Spirit of Orichalcos for suicide attacks just now?" Joey Wheeler grumbled.
"The more you suppress the darkness, the stronger the darkness becomes..." Kaiba's brow furrowed tightly, his face looking very unpleasant.
It was precisely after Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon's triple attack at full power that this monster was summoned. None of them, not even Dartz himself, could withstand a single attack from this monster.
Not only that, Dartz raised the Duel Disk on his left hand, waved his right hand forward, and said, "Then, when Orichalcos Gigas was successfully Special Summoned, I activate its effect! From my Deck or Hand, I summon these two monsters to the Front Row in Attack Position!"
"Immortal Left Hand and Invincible Right Hand!"
Receiving Dartz's command, the single slit-like eye area of Orichalcos Gigas glowed with a green light. Immediately, its arms suddenly broke off from the shoulders and flew forward as two separate arms, hovering in mid-air.

"Orichalcos Left Arm is the strongest shield. As long as this card exists on the field in Face-up Position, opponent's monsters can only declare attacks targeting this card. Also, as long as Orichalcos Gigas exists, Orichalcos Left Arm cannot be destroyed. Its DEF only changes during the Damage Calculation Step to the attacking monster's ATK plus 300 points."
"And Orichalcos Right Arm is the iron fist that pierces everything. It also has the effect that it cannot be destroyed while Orichalcos Gigas is on the field. When it attacks a monster, its ATK only changes during that Damage Calculation Step to the attacked target monster's corresponding value based on its battle position plus 300 points!"
"Although these three monsters will cause Orichalcos Gigas's ATK to decrease by the corresponding value based on its battle position after battling other monsters, 14500 points is completely sufficient to deal with you."
"This power is invincible!"
Summoning three monsters onto the field at once, Dartz placed the Orichalcos Gigas card in the Spell/Trap Zone and only left the two "arm" monsters in the Front Row. He smiled proudly, looking at Yugi.
Yugi was indeed temporarily helpless against the three monsters that had appeared in a cluster. He said helplessly, "I set two cards from my hand. End Turn."
Hearing Yugi declare the End Turn, Dartz pointed at Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon and said, "Then, in the End Phase of the turn it made three attacks, Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon will be destroyed by its own effect."
"What did my Blue-Eyes ever do to you?" Kaiba glared at Dartz and then cast an annoyed glance at Yugi beside him. "Hey Yugi, it's your turn to make a move."
Yugi nodded at Kaiba's words. "Okay, then I activate the effect of Blast Sphere."
"When equipped to Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon as an Equip Card, Blast Sphere can be sent to the Graveyard as a substitute for destruction for Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon."
"Bang!"
The various enhancement devices equipped to Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon shattered to the ground due to overload. Blast Sphere took the place of Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon, accepting the destiny of self-destruction and being sent to the Graveyard, allowing Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon to remain on Yugi's field.
However, facing the exaggerated ATK of Orichalcos Gigas, even with the protection of Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon, Yugi's 4000 Life Points were like a flickering candle.

"My Turn, Draw." Dartz drew a card. Seeing the card he drew, the corner of his mouth couldn't help but curl up. "Heh heh, although I feel it's no longer necessary to use it, I will still show you the power of the final Orichalcos."
"On top of the Seal of Orichalcos and Orichalcos Deuteros, I activate the third Field Spell Card, Orichalcos Tritos!"
"Inheriting the power of the previous two domains, Orichalcos Tritos will also grant all my monsters the ability to be unaffected by opponent's Spell/Trap Card effects!"
With just one Field Spell Card, he easily granted his monsters all-around resistance. Dartz looked at Yugi and said coldly, "It seems the journey of the 'Nameless Pharaoh and his traveling group' ends here. Next is the time of judgment for you, Nameless Pharaoh."
"Enter my Battle Phase! And now, Orichalcos Right Arm attacks!"
"Ara Mitama!"
