Fusion is the noblest form of summoning!.

Chapter 669 Trust Blossoms Like Hope (1 words, please vote for me!)

The purpose of Ryuki Takumi and Amagi Hikaru's group coming to this dimension is also related to the brothers Marufuji Ryo and Marufuji Sho.

Hikaru Amagi also learned by chance that the Cyber ​​Dragon series and the Dragonlight Takumi series are actually related series, and that "Birth of the Dragon" and "Cyber ​​Dragon Head" in Ryo Marufuji's deck are both related to Dragonlight Takumi.

Previously, when Marufuji Sho asked him for help, the "coordinate card" he showed him was the "birth of the Draco constellation" that he had obtained from his brother.

Therefore, neither Sho Marufuji, the duelist, nor the spectators watching the duel were too surprised when the electronic emergency call appeared on the other side.

The only unexpected thing is that this card was set to face down by "Starry Night" rather than being used by the Dragon Glory deck itself.

"Surprised?" Rose noticed Yuma Tsukumo's expression, her lips curling up as she spoke coldly, "Team duels are duels between two people, so naturally we have to trust each other. Although our army and the Dragon Radiance Army have been fighting, we won't trip each other up in duels against outsiders."

After hearing this, Yuma looked as if he had suddenly realized something.

The elves he had encountered before were all crazed elves under the control of the Fusion Army, and he could not see any cooperation between them. This was the first time he had encountered one.

He wasn't unfamiliar with elves; he knew that elf duels could cause real physical damage, so he summoned Hope the King right away instead of using his own onomatopoeic monster.

But since the other party said that, he could naturally understand.

After all, it's not that he's incapable of assisting others in duels; he just didn't do so in today's duel.

The warrior that Long Huiqiao dispatched was a dragon-shaped robot carrying two cannons, about the height of two people, and named "Tianbei Si Y".

After initiating an electronic emergency distress call, it began its duel.

"The effect of Cyber ​​Emergency Call allows you to add 1 Cyber ​​Dragon monster or a Machine-Type LIGHT monster that cannot be Normal Summoned from your Deck to your hand."

"I added Dragon Shining Takumi - Shangbi ζ from my deck to my hand. It is a monster that cannot be Normal Summoned, but can only be Special Summoned by the effect of Dragon Shining Takumi's cards."

Tianbei Si's voice was very clear and crisp, sounding unlike a mechanical dragon; in some ways, it even had a hint of holiness.

"To activate this effect, you can Tribute 1 Dragonlight Monster or Ritual Monster from your hand or field, other than this card. Special Summon this card from your hand or Graveyard in Defense Position."

During the turn this effect is activated, I cannot Special Summon monsters except those that cannot be Normal Summoned.

"Release the card from your hand, Long Yi Qiao - Tianlong Liuxing QUA, Special Summon Shang Bi ζ."

It picked up a blue monster card, a magnificent dragon flashed behind it, then turned into a shooting star and flowed into its graveyard.

Amagi Hikaru raised an eyebrow.

"Using this effect to Special Summon Shangbi ζ, you can add 1 Ritual Spell Card from your Deck to your hand."

The stars began to twinkle, and on the massive starship, brilliant rainbow light began to flow slowly, gradually entering its hand.

"Ritual Magic Card, Meteor Shower, added to hand."

The universe is adorned with dazzling starlight, and Hikaru Amagi feels a sense of exhilaration as he gazes at it.

"How beautiful!" Mizuki Kotori couldn't help but exclaim softly.

As for Tenjōin Fubuki—he's already started taking photos.

This beautiful scene is truly wonderful for the audience, but for the two duelists facing it, the feeling is completely different.

Marufuji Sho felt his body getting heavier and heavier, his breathing becoming heavy, and he felt that even lifting his arm was extremely difficult.

Gravity has changed!
His face was full of tension.

But no matter how tense it gets, the duel must continue!
"Activate my effect from my hand - Tribute to the card ζ Uesugi on the field, and Special Summon myself in Defense Position."

A smaller version of the robot was created on the field.

Long Huiqiao - Tianbei Si γ, Level 1, Light attribute, Mechanical race, Attack power 2000.
"After my effect successfully Special Summons, I can also Special Summon one other Dragon Summon with 2000 ATK from my Graveyard."

Special Summon Shangbi ζ.

"Level 1 but with 2000 attack power." Yuma was quite surprised. "But I remember that ritual summons require reaching a certain level, right? The ritual monster we just sent to the graveyard was a really high level. How do we perform the ritual?"

His question is also the question of others.

"Hmph—" Rose sneered, but made no attempt to explain.

“Meteor Shower is a very special Ritual Spell Card,” a calm voice rang out from somewhere. Everyone looked over and saw that it was Hikaru Amagi. “Unlike other Ritual Spell Cards, Meteor Shower’s Ritual Summoning does not require a level, but rather… attack power. As long as the offering used for the Ritual Summoning is above the combined attack power of the Ritual Target, the Ritual Summoning can be performed.”

"I see." Tenjōin Fubuki suddenly understood. "So that's how it is. Combined with low-level monsters with high attack power within the system, it is indeed a very excellent ritual magic..."

He muttered to himself for a moment, and suddenly felt that it seemed quite suitable for his younger sister.

"So, we need to perform a ritual summon?" The astral body stroked its chin, looking at the other party's monster. Because of Marufuji Sho's previous actions, it realized that people from other dimensions might not necessarily perform an Xyz Summon. Therefore, seeing two 1-star monsters, it did not remind Yuma.

But he soon realized he was wrong—

"Construct a multidimensional network using two level 1 monsters!" Tianbei Si bent his body slightly, and the two cannons he was carrying instantly fired two beams of blue light. The light struck the two monsters, turned into meteors, and flew off the runway.

"Excessive!?"

"It was an excessive amount—"

Tenjouin Fubuki and Marufuji Sho exclaimed in unison.

"Xyz Summon, Aurora's Second-in-Command - Dragon Radiance Technician - Fukumasu 2μβ'"

The next second, a mechanical dragon, shimmering with blue light and possessing a dazzling silver-white streamlined body, appeared on the field.

Dragon Radiance Clever - Support Basket Increase 2μβ', Rank 1, Light attribute, Machine type, Attack 2000, Xyz Material 2.

"It's an Xyz Summon?" Marufuji Sho blinked, but then he immediately came to his senses.

Normal—Even Cyber ​​Dragons can have Xyz Monsters!

It seems quite normal for Long Huiqiao to have an excessive amount!
"It's an Xyz Summon, Yuma, watch out."

Ninety-nine horses responded with an "Oh!"

"This effect can only be activated if a Takumi x2 is successfully Xyz Summoned. Send 1 Takumi x2 from your Deck to the Graveyard. I send Takumi x2 from my Deck to the Graveyard."

"Then, the Ritual Spell Card—Meteor Shower!"

Upon seeing the card activate, Marufuji Sho swallowed hard, hesitated for a long time, and ultimately decided not to activate the overlay card.

It's not time yet.

The use of cards should be judged according to the situation.

"The effect of Dragon's Glow - Basket Plus 2 μβ allows you to remove the Xyz Material from this card when you perform a Ritual Summon."

"Wow! That's amazing!" Yuma exclaimed in surprise upon seeing this.

So that's how ritual summoning is performed!

“Using Xyz Monsters for ritual summoning is somewhat similar to Amagi’s Synchro Fusion tactic—” Marufuji Sho was also a little surprised when he saw this, but fortunately he had seen Amagi Hikaru use Synchro Monsters for fusion before, so he was not particularly surprised.

"Ritual of Meteor Shower... Tribute Machine-Type monsters from your hand or field until their combined ATK equals or more than the ATK of the Ritual Summoned monster, and Ritual Summon 1 Ritual Monster from your hand or Graveyard!"

"Use both of the overpowered materials as release materials for the ritual summon."

"Ritual Summoning of Ritual Monster from Graveyard: Dragon Art Takumi - Heavenly Dragon Meteor QUA!"

Two mechanical dragons flew out of the hatch and danced in the air, leading a huge mechanical dragon with wings as beautiful as glass, which flew in from the horizon.

Long Yiqiao - Tianlong Meteor QUA, Level 12, Light attribute, Mechanical race, Attack power 4000!

"Wow! So cool!" Yuma Tsukumo exclaimed first.

"This design is pretty good, except it's a bit too bright." Tiera kept nodding her head next to Amagi Hikaru.

"This is one of the most brilliant technological achievements of our Longhui Qiao. Are you amazed? Nothing is more dazzling than this!" Tianbei Siyan boasted as soon as he saw his clan's super warship flying over.

It doesn't look like the more common mechanical elves; it seems quite intelligent.

"Dragon Meteor QUA, cannot be targeted by the effects of your opponent's Spell/Trap Cards. Then, if the monsters used in this card's Ritual Summon have a combined Level of 2 or less, you can activate this effect: Destroy all Spell/Trap Cards on your opponent's field!"

"!!" Upon seeing this, Astral couldn't help but praise the tactic. "Special Summon a monster that is immune to Spell and Trap Cards, then clear out the opponent's Spell and Trap Cards. With the same level of attack power, as long as they collide, Rose with 1900 attack power can directly finish us off. A very wise objective strategy!"

"Stop making sarcastic remarks, we're going to lose!!" Yuma retorted.

"Open your face-down card!!" Seeing this, Marufuji Sho knew he couldn't wait any longer—or rather, his face-down card was forced out. "Counter Trap, Red Machine Call. You can activate this when a monster's effect, spell, or trap card is activated while you control a Machine Fusion Monster. Negate that activation. Then, send all cards of the same name from the Duelist's Deck or Extra Deck to the Graveyard!"

"Phew—" Mizuki Kotori and Tsukumo Yuma breathed a sigh of relief.

Tianbei IV's deck began an automatic scan, shuffling and cutting through the cards in a flurry. A card popped out and flew into the graveyard. It glanced at it and said, "Dodged the attack, huh? But don't think it's that easy—"

"Activate the effect of Meteorite Surge in the Graveyard. If this card is in the Graveyard, you can target 1 Dragon Surge monster you control. That monster loses 1000 ATK, and this card is added to your hand."

Tenbei pointed to his secondary ship on the field, reduced its attack power by 1,000, and then added the Meteor Shower from the graveyard to his hand.

then……

"Ritual Magic Card, Meteor Shower!"

"Is it time for another ritual summoning...?"

Tenjouin Fubuki frowned: "Isn't this asking too much of Marufuji? Didn't we agree to choose an opponent of a similar level?"

The Queen of the Universe, acting as the referee, chuckled upon hearing his words: "The Great Leader's judgment is never wrong. It is the strongest spirit in this dimension... no, it is the strongest spirit in this universe and even the multiverse!"

Do not question the Great Leader's judgment, because his judgment is absolutely correct!

The strongest spirit?

What the heck? That's so exaggerated!
Tenjouin Fubuki strongly disagreed with this explanation.

But since the referee insists there's no problem, then there's no problem...

However, it seems that Xiang is a little overwhelmed.

"The ritual target is the Celestial Dragon Meteor DAD in the graveyard, with a combined attack power requirement of 5000. I release the 'Bag Gain 2' on the field and the Celestial Dragon Meteor QUA in my hand. Ritual Summon!"

"Memories sleeping amidst the stars!! Awakening moment!! A fleeting flash like a comet, a meteor's brilliance, dazzling!! Shaking the universe!"

Level 12, Long Yiqiao - Tianlong Liuxing DAD!

Welcome!

It was a colossal monster that resembled a cluster of stars. Under the twinkling of the stars, countless points of light converged from all directions, and a massive mechanical phantom slowly emerged on the warship.

boom--

The mechanical dragon gently flicked its tail, propped itself up on the deck with one hand, and watched the duel with curiosity.

Long Yiqiao - Tianlong Meteor DAD, Level 12, Light attribute, Mechanical race, Attack power 5000.
"Boss Long Shu, you've come in person—" Tian Bei Si looked at the huge mechanical dragon with great surprise.

“Tianbei Four, I’m also very curious about what kind of courage the duelists who dare to challenge us possess.” Long Shu glanced down at Marufuji Sho. “If you don’t have anything else to surprise us, you’re going to be defeated.”

A monster with an attack power of 4000 and a monster with an attack power of 5000, even if the monster with an attack power of 1900 doesn't attack, are enough to defeat Marufuji Sho!
Marufuji Sho's face darkened.

On the other side, Yuma belatedly gestured with his hands: "So there was another QUA in my hand. No wonder only one of my cards went to the graveyard... Uh, but if you think about it this way, wouldn't that mean I started with two Level 12 Ritual Monsters? What a terrible hand."

I feel... it's not that impressive.

“Roar roar roar—” Hearing this, Long Shu could not pretend not to hear it. “Tianbei Si is just a contestant of our clan in this generation. He is still very inexperienced.”

We can't let others look down on our younger generation!

"Battle has begun, Boss Long Shu! Attack that robot!"

Long Shu gently raised his right arm, and a series of floating cannons flew out from the ship on his right arm, then aimed at the War God robot.

"The effect of 'Giant Machine City': When your Machine Monsters are used in battle damage calculation, you can send 1 Machine Monster from your Deck to the Graveyard to activate this effect. That Machine Monster's original ATK and DEF are only swapped during that battle damage calculation."

I sent the second kite-shaped figure to the cemetery—ughhhh—

Long Shu was a high-level elf, and the energy it unleashed was enough to sweep across the entire harbor deck. Countless floating cannons carrying energy shattered the War God robot, while the massive laser beams also swept across Marufuji Sho.

"Sho!?" Yuma Tsukumo shouted Marufuji Sho's name anxiously as he watched the billowing smoke.

Long Shu looked down and observed.

It had long sensed that, compared to other humans, this person named Marufuji Sho not only had average physical abilities but also lacked sufficient "energy." Under these circumstances, he actually dared to attempt to touch the dragon among their stars—

Is it courage or ignorance?
The Elf Dimension is not something you can explore at will. As elves in the "universe," they strive for a more powerful future under the guidance of their Great Leader, and this is no joke.

With its strength, even a Pokémon of the "Five Divine Dragons" level can only stand on equal footing, but it is still in this dimension, precisely because this dimension is powerful enough!
Not only can it be convenient to teach the younger generation of its own tribe, but more importantly, it can also learn a little bit about the great leader here.

Of course.

In addition, there is an even faster way to evolve, which is to have a sufficiently good duelist partner.

As humanity's journey to explore the Elf dimension began, the elves gradually became aware of these things. As the highest-level mechanical monster, it was naturally aware of these matters as well. Sometimes it even considered initiating its own "Mechanical Realm." However, it then realized that it already had a "Training Ground," where the Elf races were diverse and more suitable for the growth of their descendants. In addition, there was a distant relative of the Arctic Bear, so it abandoned the idea.

Of course, more importantly, it met the [Great Leader], that invincible being.

It believes that even the "red light" is enough to contend with it, and therefore it is very interested in "interstellar competition".

As a result, during this period, two humans unexpectedly broke through the Great Leader's blockade design.

At that time, it realized that this was definitely a very suitable situation for the younger generation to gain experience.

Unfortunately……

This human is too weak.

As the smoke cleared, Marufuji Sho lay on the ground, his body riddled with bullet holes and covered in wounds. It took all his strength to barely stand up.

Human group, LP: 2300 → 1300.
"Oh no..." Tenjouin Fubuki's face turned pale.

This is going to be a problem!
“It seems that this is all you’re capable of—” Long Shu shook his head.

"Yes, boss, then, QUA, attack directly!"

Seeing this, Tianbei Si commanded the other monsters.

Seeing the attack about to land, Yuma Tsukumo was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan: "Sho, quickly activate my monster effect—"

What are your monster effects?

Do you still have any cards left unused?

Many elves raised the same question.

"I...I know..." Marufuji Sho seemed to have guessed what he was going to say, "Activate the effect of Rainbow Kuriboh in the Graveyard. If this card is in the Graveyard, you can activate this effect when your opponent declares a direct attack. Special Summon this card. If this card Special Summoned by this effect leaves the field, banish it!"

"There's even a card like this? Why didn't I use it last turn?" Rose was very surprised. On one hand, she was surprised that Yuma still had monsters in his graveyard that he could use. On the other hand, she was also puzzled as to why Yuma lost so many life points last turn.

There are still monsters available.

"After all, I was the one who upset you first..." Yuma scratched the back of his head.

This human...

However, there is another reason, which is that the roaming horse tactic is inherently about "losing health points", and it is best to lose only 1 health point, which suits his wishes, so he is not so worried.

He hadn't completely lost 100 health points because he was worried about affecting Marufuji Sho's duel. Now it seems that was the right thing to do; otherwise, Marufuji Sho wouldn't have been able to activate the Demon's Dressing Room.

The reason why Marufuji Sho knew about this card... is just as he claimed. As a "gravekeeper," he couldn't be ignorant of the graveyard. When he checked the monsters in the graveyard during his turn, he knew that Yuma hadn't done nothing.

"The effect of the monster in the graveyard? Interesting, but..." Ryuuju casually swatted Kuriboh away.

"I can activate this effect up to twice per turn when an opponent's monster's effect is activated, by banishing a Dragonlight Trickster monster from my Graveyard whose total ATK equals or more than that monster's original ATK. Negate that activation and destroy it."

"Unfortunately, human children are not elves I can easily deal with!"

Such powerful effects!
Almost everyone was surprised.

Not only does it possess an attack power of 5000 points, but it also has a powerful effect that can nullify monsters twice!
Marufuji Sho's face paled, then he raised his hand again: "Then, the effect of the kite robot, excluding the one in the graveyard, will reduce the damage of direct attacks to 0!"

"I can use the effect a second time!"

"Then let's go with the second kite-shaped figure!"

Marufuji Sho gritted his teeth and screamed at the top of his lungs.

A small, transparent kite appeared before him, refusing to yield an inch in the face of the enormous mechanical dragon. At the same time, Tianbei Si and Shangbi also disappeared.

"They actually made it through?" Tianbei Si's head was spinning, and the LED lights on his body were flashing wildly—they actually managed to hold out against both the Dragon Pivot Boss and the Quadrant Instrument Boss??
"But don't forget, I can also attack." Rose said leisurely, perhaps worried that others might forget her existence.

Its 1900 attack power is indeed nothing compared to the two enormous dragons.

However, a human with only 1300 health points would lose if touched even slightly. Marufuji Sho's forehead was covered in cold sweat. After being bombarded repeatedly, his physical condition couldn't withstand it at all. He felt like there was draft everywhere, and while he was freezing cold, his internal organs were burning with pain.

“It’s right.” Tianbei nodded, calmed down, and said, “Next, do you have any direct attacks left? Do you have any defensive measures? — Use Rose to attack directly.”

"Open the overwrite card!"

Just then, Marufuji Sho suddenly opened his face-down card: "Trap Card, Born of the Dead!"

"what?"

"What card!?!"

"Why are the dead born?!"

Not only were those who didn't recognize the card taken aback, but even Long Shu, who did, was astonished.

Why would it be born from the dead?
It had considered that Marufuji Sho's cover card might be an offensive debuff, a support card, or another trap for the robot, but it never expected it to be... Born from the Dead!
"The turn a monster is destroyed by battle, send 1 Monster Reborn from your hand or Deck to the Graveyard, then target 1 monster in your or your opponent's Graveyard; Special Summon that monster to your field as if it were Monster Reborn's effect."

I choose... No. 39, Hopeful Hopp!

Tianbei stared blankly at this scene.

"Why, why?" Its processor couldn't understand this scene.

Even the user of the "Hope" Astral Body couldn't help but ask, "Why? Why not just use the effect of the dead to resurrect the War God mech in the graveyard?"

If you Special Summon Mech in Defense Position, Mech with 4000 DEF can defend against QUA's attack!
Moreover, even if Hope really needed to be resurrected, couldn't she be resurrected during a QUA attack?

“Because…because I want to make sure that Hope can really be safely resurrected.” Marufuji Sho forced a smile and said, trying to stay calm.

"You could have revived your own ace, but you revived your teammate's monster instead?" Tianbei stared into his eyes, incredulous.

Marufuji Sho looked at the monster on the field, hesitated, thought, and finally continued, "I am... the representative of the Fusion Division. The mistakes that the Fusion Army made in the Xyz Dimension cannot be ignored."

The past haunted him like a nightmare, and even though he and Jaden had gone through many events, none of the members of the Union Club had returned.

He was like a lonely gravedigger, always guarding the junction, yet seemingly waiting for no result.

But this waiting has blossomed today.

In a distant, otherworldly place.

In the world that the Fusion Army once invaded, there was a “dimensional friend” who was willing to believe in him and in the goodness in people’s hearts!
He absolutely did not want to lose this duel, as it could be crucial to his brother's memory recovery.

But what he couldn't accept even more was that he had let down his friends from another dimension!

The former, even if he himself is no longer useful, can still trust Tenjouin-senpai and Amagi-kun, whom he can absolutely trust; the latter, if he is wrong, then his life is over.

Because he couldn't see any meaning in continuing.

“If Yuma-kun is willing to believe in them, and willing to believe in me… then I must ensure that he can have a successful duel.”

"You came to this dimension to obtain the Dragon Radiance Skill Card, didn't you?" Ryushu looked down at Marufuji Sho, even leaning down to scrutinize him. "But now, you're putting your hopes on someone else?"

Tsukumo Yuma's first round was so disastrous that Marufuji Sho, who had his own agenda, actually willingly relinquished his "glory"...

Marufuji Sho leaned back and sat on the ground, letting out a "ha!"

"What kind of duelist are you if you don't even trust your own comrades?"

……

Look at them with new eyes.

Long Shu had to admit that this so-called "tomb keeper" didn't seem to be waiting alone, but was genuinely filled with hope.

"That kid Sho..." Tenjouin Fubuki sighed.

Perhaps loneliness is the best way to grow. Marufuji Sho endured so much pain and pressure, yet he still held onto hope, which is truly remarkable.

"...Then, I'll set one card face down and end my turn."

Currently, Tenbei Shi's perception of Marufuji Sho has completely reversed.

In fact, at the beginning, it had no interest in this human with low dueling energy. During the duel, some of his comments about Yuma Tsukumo also made it very unhappy.

Because the two suddenly started arguing halfway through the duel, it felt that Marufuji Sho, as a warrior in a team duel, was not worthy of their "Dragon Light Takumi" use.

After all, while Dragonlight Trickster is a ritual deck, the most important thing to use it properly is "cooperation".

Otherwise, it would lead to the awkward situation of having a Ritual Monster stuck in your hand this turn.

"Alright, here we go, Yuma—"

"Oh! Astral, get serious!" Yuma responded to the astral body's words, preparing to soar into the sky, but just then...

"Cuckoo-"

"Eh?"

Yuma bent over, clutching his stomach: "Ugh, I'm so hungry... I really want to eat rice balls."

"Bear with it, Yuma. We've already finished the Duel Rice Balls. Let's leave later." Kotori Mizuki couldn't help but clutch her stomach, but she still bravely told Yuma.

The prolonged hiding in this dimension left Yuma and his companions physically and mentally exhausted, especially the two humans who were starving. Yuma, who already had little strength, also struggled to muster the energy for the duel, which was one of the reasons why his performance in the first round seemed so poor.

"No rice balls, how about instant noodles?" Seeing their starving appearance, Amagi Hikaru couldn't help but smile and said to them.

"Eh, really!? Thank you so much—"

Hikaru Amagi looked at the Queen of the Universe: "Is it alright, Your Majesty?"

It glanced at the two dueling spirits and nodded: "Heh, your opponents have no objections."

So, Hikaru Amagi returned to the Ugly Ship, prepared some hot water and instant noodles, quickly made them, and pushed the cart to the dueling arena.

The little bird that watches the moon has been hungry for a long time, but it still maintains its composure, while Yuma, without a second thought, grabs a cup and gulps it down.

"Wow...so delicious..." Mizuki Kotori took a couple of bites, her eyes suddenly flashing with golden light, and she exclaimed in surprise in a low voice. Then she ate even faster with her fork.

"Wow, delicious!!" Yuma downed a glass, chewing and swallowing rapidly, then exclaimed in surprise, "Thank you so much!!"

“Of course, ha—” Tiera nodded, hands on her hips, as she watched the two humans eating with gusto.

This is a 99% replica of the original cup noodles, certified by the God of Creation!
After wolfing down more than a dozen cups of instant noodles, Jiujiu Yuma jumped up again, not caring at all about how much he had eaten. Then, he did a 180-degree backward jump, put his hands on the ground, and jumped back up again. He did this three or four times in a row, until he was at the back of the deck. He pointed to the opposite side and shouted, "I have the strength! So, let's go!"

"My turn—"

"Flash Draw!"

He leaped high, drew a card from his deck, and held it up high. The card emitted a brilliant golden light, as if it were truly a "flash".

This scene left everyone, including the elves, dumbfounded.

"Here it comes—Normal Spell Card, Flash Draw!"

He laughed heartily and showed it to his opponent: "A true duelist can even create his own card draw!"

"During your draw phase, this card is continuously revealed through a normal draw. During Main Phase 1 of that turn, you can target 1 'Hope of the Rising Sun' monster you control and activate 1 of the following effects."

1. Select any number of "Different Heat Weapons" monsters with different names from your Deck or Extra Deck and equip them to the target as Equip Cards.

2. Special Summon 1 Hope's Xyz Monster (different from the name of the monster you are targeting) from your Extra Deck as an Xyz Summon over that monster.

"This……"

Doesn't this card picture look like that human?

The two fighting elves looked at each other, both somewhat dumbfounded.

"Then... upgrade the magic - Power of Different Heat and Unity!"

Yuma's smile was so bright it made people question reality, as if he were the one with the advantage.

"A Rank-Up Magic Card!?" Marufuji Sho and Tenjouin Fubuki were both taken aback.

Isn't this one of those particularly dangerous magic cards?

"Target 1 Xyz Monster you control. Special Summon 1 [Hope Royal Hope] monster or [Heat-Soul Weapon] monster that is 1 Rank higher than that monster from your Extra Deck by Xyz Summoning over the targeted monster. Place 1 Heat-Soul Weapon or Heat-Soul Servant Monster from your Deck on top of your Deck."

"I'm using Hope Royal Hope as supermaterial for upgrading!"

"Chaotic Hypertransformation!"

Hopefully, Emperor Hopp discarded his weapon, his body began to transform, and under the influence of crimson blood, he gradually became an even taller warrior.

"Beast Suit Fusion Lion Hope!"

Beast Armor Fusion Lion Hope, Rank 5, Light Attribute, Warrior Race, Attack Power 2500.
"Beast Armor Fusion? Not the Hope Emperor..."

"The card name 'Lion Hope' is used as 'Chaos No. 39: Royal Hope' according to the rules!"

"Next, use the flash draw effect!"

He laughed and opened his deck.

It's clear that his current state corresponds to what he just said about "being too hungry and not performing well," rather than him stubbornly claiming that the network was lagging, he was in poor form, or he had a bad touch.

"I'm giving the following weapons to Beast Armor Hope: Pegasus Twin Wings, Wild Eagle Claw, Thunder Tiger Sword, and the Extra Deck weapon, Beast King Lion Armor, to Beast Armor Hope!"

Clang clang clang clang—

Four weapons flew out of Yuma's Extra Deck and were all equipped to Hope at once. Some were held in his hand, some were equipped on his arm, and some were even transformed into mounts, carrying the lion Hope.

"Equip 4 monsters at once?"

"But what's the use of that..."

The elves seemed to think it was nothing special, but Yuma didn't care about those voices at all.

“Hey——————Tianlong Meteor DAD————” he shouted, trying to get Long Shu’s attention.

"What's wrong?" Long Shu asked.

"If we win, will you let Xiang get Long Huiqiao's card?"

"Hmph, that depends on whether he can gain the approval of my juniors... Besides, you haven't won yet, you're far from winning."

"So that means there's a chance?" Yuma asked with a smile.

"……Yes."

"Then, I'll leave it to you!"

"I already told you, you haven't won yet—"

"We're about to win!" Yuma laughed heartily. "Hope is always there. Since Xiang has placed his hopes in me, I must repay him with victory!"

He's quite happy now, after all, he's made new friends in an unfamiliar place, and they're such "loyal" friends at that.

Abandon your ace, revive his Hope—

"Go for it, Hope! Let us bring hope!"
Activate Lion Hopley's effect once per turn: Deliver 1 Xyz Material to activate this effect. Equip 1 Zealot Weapon Monster from your Deck or Extra Deck as that Effect Equip Spell Card to this card.

"Then, I'll activate Dragon Pivot's effect, banishing Dragon Meteor from the graveyard with its QUA, negating and destroying your effect!"

“I’m sorry—” Yuma replied, “the activation and effect of this effect cannot be nullified.”

what?
It actually has an immune-ineffective effect!

"I've equipped the Extra Deck's Heroic Weapon - Heavy Armored Dragon King's Halberd to Lion Hope! Based on its effect, Hope's ATK is increased by 3000!"

A huge dragon beast flew out from the extra horse, then transformed into a giant halberd, which landed in the hands of the Emperor of Hope.

Beast Armor Fusion Lion Hope, ATK: 2500→5500
"Attack power of 5500, surpassing Boss Long Shu!?"

“Attack power 5500…” Rose looked nervous.

If it gets attacked, it's all over.

"Should we attack Rose?"

"How could that be? I'll definitely fight the strongest monster! Lion Hope's effect: Once per turn, if this card is equipped with a Zealot Weapon Monster Card, target 1 Effect Monster your opponent controls, halve its ATK, and negate its effect!"

"Wait, this effect can be negated now, right? I'll activate Dragon Pivot's effect, banishing the last QUA, to negate and destroy your effect!"

"Of course it can be negated, but—when this card is equipped, once per turn, when the effect of a monster effect activated by your opponent on the field is resolved, you can negate that effect!"

Done!

Long Shu could no longer maintain its previous composure; its body was shrunk to the size of a normal ship.

Long Yi Qiao - Tianlong Meteor DAD, ATK: 5000 → 2500.
"If we get attacked now, we've won!" Marufuji Sho couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Perhaps he had been hanging on by a thread, but seeing this situation, he finally felt a little relieved.

But because of this, he felt his vision go black, and the world spun around him. He instinctively knelt on the ground.

"Battle! Beast Armor Hope attacks Dragon Art Takumi - Heavenly Dragon Meteor DAD!"

"Activate the face-down card, trap card, Divine Shield - Mirror Power -"

"what!"

"Then, I'll activate the effect of the Wild Vulture's Divine Claw!"

Sure enough there is!

Long Shu guessed that these weapons probably each had their own effects, but he didn't expect them to appear so quickly.

"When this card is equipped, once per turn, negate the effects of trap cards activated by your opponent!"

Chain Trap activation is indeed a card designed to counter traps!
The light of the Mirror's power shone on the Hope Emperor's body, but the claws on its wrists merely touched it lightly, easily shattering the so-called holy light.

"In this way, the battle continues, let us soar to the heavens! May Emperor Hope be upon us!"

Hopley spun around, and the halberd in his hand began to transform wildly. He leaped into the air and cheered, hoping that the Emperor would follow closely behind and pierce through the shrunken mechanical dragon spike.

Boom boom boom——

Pokémon group, LP: 2000 → 0.
The Dragon Meteor DAD slowly flew away from their port, gazing at the humans on the port from afar. The humans who arrived later were relatively peaceful and breathed a sigh of relief, while the green-haired female human from the first group jumped up and down with joy.

Lost?
It seems that these two humans are not entirely without merit.

and……

From this perspective, the "equal strength" mentioned by the great lords does not seem to correspond to what they believe.

The proportion of human children named Yuma is even higher!

But regardless—

Speaking solely of this duel, Marufuji Sho is worth the investment!

　　My Cards Refresh Infinitely

　　Summary:
　　[Card Battles] [Brand New Gameplay] [Original Turn-Based System]

　　This is a world where playing cards reigns supreme, and human card players were created to fight against alien monsters.

　　To acquire stronger cards and build a stronger deck, you have to keep working hard.

　　Skeleton King + Sorrowful Frost = Death Lord, 9% success rate
　　[Phoenix IV] + [Eastern Core] = [Earth-Shattering Strike], Success Rate 3%
　　[Millennial Stone Monkey] + [Golden Essence Cudgel] = [Fighting Monkey King], success rate 1%
　　One day, Shi Li, a senior high school student, suddenly discovered that he could refresh the card-making results indefinitely.

　　Thus began the rise of a legendary poker master.

　　Some years later.

　　Standing before everyone now is: Shi Li, the first Grand Slam winner in the league, the MVP of the regular season in the entire region, the FMVP of the finals in the entire region, the record holder for the number of floors reached in the Hell Dungeon, the record holder for the number of Abyss monsters killed, the first person in history to bravely venture into the God Realm, and the strongest transcendent rank recognized in the entire region!
　　Reporter: "Mr. Shi Li, please give your acceptance speech."

　　Shi Li: "A successful poker player is 99% skill plus 1% skill."

　　Reporter: "...So it's all about pure ability, isn't it?"

　　Shi Li: "That's right."

　　Reporter: "But you once said in that crucial match that you got to where you are today entirely because of incredible luck."

　　Shi Li: "No, you actually believe what's said at the card table?"
