Chapter 881: So Strong, Too Strong!
"My Turn ends."
[Hayato: 4000 LP, Hand 1]
[Statue of the Silver City] [ATK 0]
[Armored Cyberdark End Dragon] (Mezuki) [ATK 5000]
[Imperial Order] [Set Card]
After Hayato declared his End Turn, before starting his own Turn, Hiroya Misawa looked at Hayato and Kaiba and suddenly laughed.
"Although you are powerful Duelists, Hayato Kobayashi, Kaiba Seto, there's fundamentally no cooperation between the two of you. You're simply fighting individually."
Placing his finger on the Top of his Deck, Hiroya Misawa arrogantly said, "Your Duel gave me the feeling that, although your powerful aura did bluff me at first, now it's my turn to counterattack! The dissatisfaction of being suppressed since just now, and the humiliation of being defeated by Kaiba Seto before!"
"My Turn, Draw!"
Drawing a card from his Deck, Hiroya Misawa, who was already quite proud, became even more arrogant upon seeing the card he drew: "Here it comes, my perfect offensive strategy. Now I have grabbed the core card in my Hand!"
"Activate Quick-Play Spell Card [Mystical Space Typhoon]! I will use this card's effect to destroy that [Imperial Order]!" Reaching out a finger towards that Continuous Trap Card [Imperial Order] on Hayato's Back Row, Hiroya Misawa had been enduring that card for a long time. A Mystical Space Typhoon swept towards it.
Hearing this, Kaiba gave a cold laugh. He fundamentally had no idea of activating his Set Card to assist Hayato, but instead said contemptuously, "Want to dispel the seal on your Spell/Trap Zone cards? You can only see the cards on your Field and are immersed in the past. After all, you're just a third-rate Duelist."
"Exactly, unlike you, Seto, who looks ahead a thousand years and thinks about the Future of humanity, like Mufti."
"Hmph, even I'm not that idle. Also, don't compare me to fictional characters." Hayato's words earned him a roll of the eyes from Kaiba. And amidst their conversation, [Imperial Order] was destroyed by [Mystical Space Typhoon]. Yet, neither Kaiba nor Hayato reacted to this.
The attitude of the two made Hiroya Misawa somewhat angry: "Damn it, you two guys fundamentally don't take me seriously!"
"That condescending attitude of looking down on others, I'll correct you with my Set Card that had its seal broken, and let you witness my amazingness!" Pressing the Activate Set Card button, Hiroya Misawa revealed a card that could be activated because [Imperial Order] was destroyed. "I activate this Quick-Play Spell Card, [Destruction Swordsman's Fated Duel]!"
"Activate by targeting up to three monsters of the same Type in the Opponent's Graveyard. Banish those monsters, and increase the ATK/DEF of one "Buster Blader" monster or "Destruction Sword" monster on my Field by the number of those banished monsters X 1000 points until the End Phase!"
"What I choose are cards in your Graveyard, Kaiba Seto. Because of the effect of [Infernoid Tierra] before, you sent that [Blue-Eyes Steel Armor Dragon] which can negate monster effects to the Graveyard, right? The monster I will banish is that one! Furthermore, I think there must be other Dragon-Type monsters among the Fusion Monsters you sent from your Fusion Deck to the Graveyard before!"
Hearing Hiroya Misawa's words, Kaiba's expression turned cold: "You dare banish my [Blue-Eyes]!?"
"Hmph hmph, even if you glare at me with those fierce eyes, what can you do? Can you kill me with your eyes?" Hiroya Misawa said, meeting Kaiba's gaze. "The reason I banish the Dragon-Type monsters in your Graveyard instead of Hayato Kobayashi's monsters is, firstly, because your Dragon-Type monsters can provide the biggest boost."
"Secondly, in my eyes, Hayato Kobayashi will be defeated by me in this Turn immediately. Whatever cards are in his Graveyard are fundamentally not worth my attention!"
"Reveal your Graveyard, Kaiba Seto!"
When Hiroya Misawa said this, Kaiba instead showed a cold laugh. Looking at Hayato beside him, he surprisingly and rarely teased, "You're being looked down on like this, Hayato? Going to be taken out in one Turn by someone else? Although having my [Blue-Eyes] banished makes me very annoyed, if I can see you suffer a setback, I feel like [Blue-Eyes] would also be willing to endure it a little, after all, that's too rare."
Just like Joey Wheeler and Alister were very much looking forward to seeing Kaiba suffer a setback, the possibility of seeing Hayato suffer a setback was also a rare experience for Kaiba.
This time it was Hayato's turn to give Kaiba a roll of the eyes: "Oh please, you actually became so wicked. Who led you astray like this?"
While speaking, Kaiba also took out several cards from his Graveyard and held them in his Hand. When he looked at Hiroya Misawa, his expression changed again to an arrogant one: "In my Graveyard are these monsters: [Blue-Eyes Steel Armor Dragon], [XY-Dragon Cannon], [XZ-Tank Cannon], [YZ-Tank Dragon]."
"Hmm? These are [XYZ]!?" Hiroya Misawa was startled when he saw the cards Kaiba took out. "Why would you send these monsters to the Graveyard?"
"Hmph, you know the answer and yet you ask. When did you get the illusion that I would do something as despicable as actively sending monsters to the Graveyard for victory, like you?"
Kaiba's chin lifted, and he said arrogantly. But Hayato always felt that this guy was definitely hinting at him.
"Tsk, even if that's the case, I select and banish these three Machine-Type monsters: [XY-Dragon Cannon], [XZ-Tank Cannon], and [YZ-Tank Dragon], to increase Buster Blader's ATK by 3000 points."
Hiroya Misawa briefly weighed his options. Although he really wanted to banish Kaiba's [Blue-Eyes Steel Armor Dragon], in the end, for victory or defeat, he chose to banish the three Machine-Type monsters. "Although I've given you the opportunity to recycle that [Blue-Eyes Steel Armor Dragon], that's a matter for the next Turn. But in this Turn, I will eliminate Hayato Kobayashi!"
[Buster Blader] [ATK 2600→5600]
Although Buster Blader's effect was negated due to [Blue-Eyes Steel Armor Dragon]'s effect, preventing it from increasing its ATK based on the number of Dragon-Type monsters in the Opponent's Graveyard and on the Field, under the effect of [Destruction Swordsman's Fated Duel], its ATK has already increased to a degree that surpasses [Armored Cyberdark End Dragon].
Although [Armored Cyberdark End Dragon] has quite powerful resistance, there's a saying that goes, the most useless resistance is battle destruction immunity, and the most useful removal method is battle destruction. In front of Buster Blader with 5600 ATK points, even if it's [Armored Cyberdark End Dragon], it can only be battle destroyed. Its powerful resistance is fundamentally useless.
But what's more important is that, besides [Armored Cyberdark End Dragon], another monster exists on Hayato's Field, which is [Statue of the Silver City]. Furthermore, [Statue of the Silver City] in Attack Position was still in a state where its ATK became 0 due to the effect of [Guardian of the Golden Land] in the previous Turn.
If it were selected as the attack target by Buster Blader, it would be no different from a direct attack on Hayato. Under the ATK points as high as 5600, even if Hayato's Life Points are still at their full value of 4000 points, it's completely insufficient!
Seeing Kaiba banish three Machine-Type monsters, Hiroya Misawa was still not satisfied. He looked at Kaiba and said, "With Buster Blader's power, eliminating Hayato Kobayashi is already more than enough. Then, you are next, Kaiba Seto!"
"I said just now, didn't I? There's fundamentally no cooperation between you and Hayato Kobayashi. The reason I said that is naturally because, compared to the two of you, our Tag Duel cooperation is more suited." While speaking, he looked at the Mysterious Person on the other side and said, "Hey, I'm going to use your Set Card. Is that okay?"
The Mysterious Person didn't speak either. He just reached out a hand towards the two Set Cards on his Back Row, indicating to Hiroya Misawa to use them freely.
"Then I will activate the one on the left."
Hearing Hiroya Misawa's words, the Mysterious Person also pressed the button to open the Set Card, revealing a red Trap Card, [Scarlet Sanguine Elixir of the Golden Land].
"[Scarlet Sanguine Elixir of the Golden Land], this card's effect is to select one Zombie-Type monster from the Deck or Graveyard and Special Summon it. However, if there is no [Eldlich] monster on the Field, you cannot Special Summon a monster that is not an [Eldlich] monster. Furthermore, after this card is used, until the End Phase, you cannot Special Summon monsters that are not Zombie-Type monsters."
The Mysterious Person's words were impatiently interrupted by Hiroya Misawa: "But because [Eldlich the Golden Lord] exists on your Field, the restriction is gone. I can directly Special Summon one Zombie-Type monster from the Deck or Graveyard onto the Field."
"I Special Summon this monster from the Graveyard. Come forth, [Gozuki]!"
[Gozuki], which was tributed and sent to the Graveyard before, returned to Hiroya Misawa's Field through reanimation. It was still holding that large wooden mallet in its hand and bravely chose Attack Position. However, upon seeing its old partner [Mezuki] equipped to [Armored Cyberdark End Dragon], [Gozuki] was startled for a moment and chose to pretend not to see it.
"Activate [Gozuki]'s effect! Once per Turn, send one Zombie-Type monster from my Deck to the Graveyard. I will send [Yoko, the Graceful Mayakashi] to the Graveyard. Then, I activate another Set Card, [Call of the Haunted], to Special Summon [Yoko, the Graceful Mayakashi] that was sent to the Graveyard!"
[Gozuki], which summons the souls of the recently deceased, sent a monster from Hiroya Misawa's Deck to the Graveyard. But this monster, named after a Yokai from the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons, was Special Summoned onto the Field in Attack Position by the effect of [Call of the Haunted], breathing blue flames from its mouth.
[Gozuki] [ATK 1700]
[Yoko, the Graceful Mayakashi] [ATK 1200]
"The Deck I use is a 'Yokai' Zombie Deck based on the Yokai from the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons. Although I had to remove some cards like Buster Blader to counter Kaiba Seto's [Blue-Eyes White Dragon], I deliberately kept some. This way, you can know that I'm using a 'Yokai' Deck."
Hiroya Misawa, who only now began introducing his Deck, placed his finger on the Top of his Deck. "And as Yokai, they naturally embody the special characteristics of the Zombie Type. The Graveyard is like their core existence."
"When [Yoko, the Graceful Mayakashi] is Special Summoned from the Graveyard, I draw a card from my Deck. Draw!"
Drawing the card, Hiroya Misawa looked at it and revealed a very proud expression: "It's here, the strongest monster in my Deck, and an important link in That Individual's plan. I haven't performed a Normal Summon this Turn yet. At this moment, I will tribute [Yoko, the Graceful Mayakashi] on the Field!"
"The legendary giant also known as Tatara Mage, and an unparalleled Great Yokai, descend!"
"[Daidarabotchi]!"
The purple flying bird born from the resentment of the recently deceased transformed back as its resentment dispersed, disappearing from Hiroya Misawa's Field. In its place, a pitch-black giant rose from the Earth, standing tall upon the Earth, corresponding from afar with Kaiba's [Blue-Eyes White Dragon] and Hayato's [Armored Cyberdark End Dragon] on the opposite side!
[Daidarabotchi] [Level 10/EARTH]
[Zombie-Type/Effect]
[2900/2500]
"A Level 10 monster? Hmph, I feel... it's not as good as [Blue-Eyes White Dragon]." Kaiba said casually, but then frowned. "However, when Tribute Summoning a monster Level 7 or higher, the required number of Tributes should be two. Has the Duel Disk system been hacked?"
"No, the reason [Daidarabotchi] only used one Tribute when Tribute Summoned is because of its own Summoning Condition. This card cannot be Special Summoned, but when Tribute Summoned, it can be tributed with only one Zombie-Type monster."
Saying this, Hiroya Misawa waved his hand again. "As for not being as good as [Blue-Eyes White Dragon]? Heh heh, then let me show you, Kaiba Seto. Let you see how terrifying I am when I get serious!"
"[Daidarabotchi]'s effect: This card gains ATK equal to the number of Zombie-Type monsters on your Field, except this card, X 200 points. And on my Field, there are a total of four Zombie-Type monsters: [Gozuki], [Eldlich the Golden Lord], [Guardian of the Golden Land], and [Conquistador of the Golden Land]."
"Therefore, [Daidarabotchi]'s ATK increases by 800 points!"
[Daidarabotchi] [ATK 2900→3700]
"This way, [Daidarabotchi]'s ATK will be even higher than [Blue-Eyes White Dragon], right?"
Seeing [Daidarabotchi] on his Field raise its hand, several wisps of power from the other Zombie-Type monsters on the Field gathered on the giant's body, causing its ATK to be increased. Hiroya Misawa said arrogantly, "Enter my Battle Phase! I will first take out Hayato Kobayashi, and then eliminate you, Kaiba Seto, using these two powerful monsters on my Field!"
"[Buster Blader], attack that [Statue of the Silver City] with 0 ATK! Destruction Sword Flash!"
Although Buster Blader, with an ATK points as high as 5600, felt something was wrong, it was forced by its controller who had already declared an attack. It could only helplessly raise the long sword in its hand towards the seemingly powerless [Statue of the Silver City] on Hayato's Field.
Seeing the opponent so easily declare an attack, without even clearing his Spell/Trap Zone Set Cards, Hayato was also somewhat helpless.
However, what he said wasn't like that: "A Buster Blader with 5600 ATK points attacks my [Statue of the Silver City]? That means I'm about to take 5600 Battle Damage!? Oh my, my Life Points are fundamentally like a flickering candle!"
"So Strong, Too Strong!" While saying this, Hayato pressed the Activate Set Card button without hesitation. "Therefore, I activate the invincible [Magic Cylinder]!"
"Witness the top-tier understanding of Duel Monsters from Leader Zuo!"
End of Chapter
"My Turn ends."
[Hayato: 4000 LP, Hand 1]
[Statue of the Silver City] [ATK 0]
[Armored Cyberdark End Dragon] (Mezuki) [ATK 5000]
[Imperial Order] [Set Card]
After Hayato declared his End Turn, before starting his own Turn, Hiroya Misawa looked at Hayato and Kaiba and suddenly laughed.
