Fusion is the noblest form of summoning!.

Chapter 727 The Budding of Reincarnation (6K)

The Garden of the One began to crumble, the walls where Godwin stood began to collapse, the ground gradually rose, and finally, a huge ceremonial platform appeared before him.

He gave a low snort and then placed a deck on the dueling platform.

On the other side, Hikaru Amagi jumped off the car, and under everyone's astonished gaze, the D-Wheel gradually transformed into a skeletal warhorse. It carried the Duel Disk in its mouth, ran around Hikaru Amagi twice, and finally put the Duel Disk on Hikaru Amagi.

"Duel!" X2.
Now that things have come to this, there's no need to repeat the pre-war declarations.

Godwin, LP: 4000.
Amagi Hikaru, LP: 4000.
"Amagi Hikaru, this world can't withstand any more suffering, and you should be well aware of that."

Godwin looked down at Amagi Hikaru, his tone serious and solemn: "Compared to something that is ethereal and uncertain, and whose success is even unknown, creating a god for humanity can at least guarantee that humanity will never become extinct."

Just as the Synchro God is bound to the Synchro, the [Human God] will never abandon humanity, because once humanity becomes extinct, then the Human God will no longer be a god.

Therefore, the gods would instinctively create humans with good qualities, and remove those who are dirty, foolish, and greedy from the human race, thus establishing a beautiful human world. Naturally, there is no need to worry about the perpetual motion machine reversing.

This is a foolproof method that can absolutely protect humanity as it moves to the next future node!

Even people from the future would probably accept it!

"Accept? Will the world really be better under your rule?" Hikaru Amagi wasn't in a hurry. He took a breath and said leisurely, "When you were a police officer, what did you do? Did you change the status quo? The lower class was still being tortured, and the upper-class nobles still treated the lower class like garbage."

While Yusei, Kro, and Jack were working hard, you took advantage of the Fusion Army's defeat to purge the nobles and then became the president of this country. But what did you do after that?
WRGP, theoretically a competition that brings together people from all over the world, has restricted communication between teams, preventing them from talking to each other. Even though I've been in this dimension for a long time, my descendants who are searching for their relatives have not been able to contact their families.

Now, disregarding the wishes of the world, you want to seize the fruits of victory. How can someone like you be trusted?

Perhaps the most beautiful fairy tale in the world is trust.

Hikaru Amagi doesn't trust Godwin, but only Yusei.

In fact, many people were still a bit confused at this point.

The red dragon is out of their question; it's beyond their comprehension, so they can pretend it doesn't exist for now.

Godwin's sudden defection caught many off guard.

After all, Godwin was usually refined and easy-going, and very polite in his dealings with people. Many country leaders even thought that with Godwin in charge of the city, their countries might be able to get some benefits from this easy-going gentleman. They never expected that something like this would happen at this time!
After Amagi Hikaru recounted his past and present, they were shocked to realize that behind Godwin, there was also filth and darkness.

They quickly felt relieved.

Yes.

Which country's leader is truly an innocent and pure person?
The current Godwin is actually more in line with their ideas!

For the sake of the country and the interests of the nation, I'll do any dirty or hard work!
only--

Godwin's vision extended to the entire world!
“Heh…” Godwin wasn’t surprised to hear what Amagi Hikaru said.

"Naive, so naive. Whether it's you or Yusei." After hearing Hikaru Amagi's words, Godwin did not refute Hikaru's correctness, but shook his head. "I admit that both Yusei and you are noble duelists, but you are too naive and too self-righteous."

In your eyes, right is right and wrong is wrong, but the world is not so simple.

The name "The One True God" is not something to be taken lightly.

He raised his arms, purple and red light swirling around him: "You have seen countless lower gods and countless earthbound gods, some of whom claim to be able to contend with the Red Dragon, but none of these guys have ever truly witnessed just how terrifying the Red Dragon is now!"
If the One God is someone any earthbound deity can contend with, then where is this so-called "One" God?!

"Reality is far crueler than you can imagine!"

He felt the power in his hands, experienced the energy within them, and understood.

The power given by the Red Dragon has not dissipated.

It works!

If you have that capability, there's no problem.

He looked at Amagi Hikaru.

"During my turn, I banish the top 10 cards of my deck face down to activate the Spell Card, Pot of Greed. Draw two cards."

He slammed the magic card onto the table and then drew two cards from his deck.

"If you have more than five cards in your hand, you can Tribute Summon this card without Tributing it."

"Evil Priest Cheren Shaba".

Eight giant purple snakes emerged from the darkness, atop which sat a black dog-headed man with arms outstretched, looking incredibly fierce.

"Magic Cards, Treasures of Heaven and Earth—"

Godwin then used the cards.

"The effect of this card is that during the turn you summon a high-level monster, you can draw two cards from your deck. You cannot use these two cards, and one of them must be set."

Godwin drew two more cards from his deck.

He glanced at the cards in his hand, picked out two and showed them: "The effect of Arctic Bear - Grizzly Bear: Release another Evil Priest in your hand to Special Summon itself!"

"It's Polar Bear? Could it be that President Godwin is going to show us a series of Synchro Summoning gacha pulls?!" MC's plane was also flying in the arena, so the Red Dragon didn't control him and prevent him from moving. Since that was the case, he simply urged the pilot to go to Godwin and Amagi Hikaru's location to explain to all the spectators.

After all, no one can leave their positions at this time, so as the commentator, he naturally has to explain to everyone!

Godwin glanced at him, said nothing, sneered, and raised his hands: "The ceremony is ready. Let me show you the majesty of God!"

Perform a negative star adjustment using a level 8 Arctic Bear - Great Grizzly Bear and a level 8 Evil Priest Cheren Shaba!

Negative-tone star!?

Yusei Fudo blurted out, "In that case, wouldn't the level be 0!?"

"That's right, it's exactly... 0!"

Godwin raised his hands in a frenzy, and the dark markings and dragon marks on his body began to shine even brighter.

"The source of power that surges from the chaotic dimension is both the origin and the pinnacle of everything!"

Let us indulge in the boundless desires of this world for a moment!

The red dragon gently exhaled.

A huge crimson dragon mark flew out from behind Godwin, and then, under the energy exhaled by the red dragon, it transformed into a massive body!

"Synchronic Summon!"

"Ultimate God Ultraman Tzolkin!!"

A smaller red dragon flapped its wings and circled the city, its body encircling the entire city, while its wings acted as a shield, blocking the light from the city.

Ultimate God Ultra Maya Tzolkin, Level 0, Attack Power 0.
"Clad in crimson energy... how sacred, and... it feels no less powerful than the Crimson Nova..." Jack stared blankly at the tiny red dragon, unable to help but exclaim in amazement.

"What, what kind of monster is this?!" MC's lips trembled.

This was the first time he had ever seen a monster with such numerical values.

"Monster?"

Godwin's eyes widened.

"It's not a monster!"

"The Ultra Maya Tzolkin is a being beyond all levels; he is a god!"

Countless people stared at the dragon's shadow, speechless.

It doesn't use class distinctions like over-quantity, nor does it have star ratings—

A truly unique existence!

Godwin slowly picked up a card and placed it face down on the table: "Place a card."

"what!?"

"What--"

"what happened!?"

The moment Godwin placed the card, starlight spilled down, and endless light fell from the sky.

Suddenly, a giant dragon appeared on the field!
It was a dragon that shone with silver light, as sacred as a star; it was a magnificent dragon, a powerful dragon—of course, before the red dragon, it was still like a drop in the ocean.

Sky Dragon Soars, Level 10, Light Attribute, Dragon Race, Attack Power: ? → 3000.
"Hehehe, every time I set a card, the power of the ultimate god will activate, summoning a [Duel Dragon] directly from the Extra Deck!"

"What!?" Jack listened to this in disbelief, feeling as if his ears had been damaged.

"No need for synchronization, just go straight in!?" Harald stood there dumbfounded.

While people in this dimension are going to great lengths to gather materials, upgrade levels, and collect both Tuner and Non-Tuner monsters, Red Dragon only needs to set one card to summon Synchro Monsters at will!?
This is a 10-star Synchro Monster!
"This is only a small fraction of the Red Dragon's power!" Godwin's previous fervor had vanished, replaced by a calm, even somewhat resentful, demeanor. He clenched his fist, staring at his right knuckles, and said, "No extra steps are needed. Just set one card, and you can directly summon a Synchro Monster. This is the power of a god!"

And this is merely half... no, perhaps even less than half the power of a red dragon!

He gazed at the real red dragon in the distance, then at the red dragon beside him, and realized with a profound understanding that even though he had tried very hard to imagine the existence of the red dragon itself, it was still not enough. Although a red dragon capable of covering an entire city or a country was already enormous enough, its true form could easily hover over not only cities and countries, but even planets.

And this is very likely not the Red Dragon's full strength!
He is not the god of this planet, but the god of this dimension and this universe!
"Besides the Red Dragon, who else can summon Synchro Monsters so easily and casually? Even the strongest Earthbound God has to sacrifice himself and the Crimson Demon to summon the True Crimson Nova Dragon."

This is the difference between gods and mortals.

Despite being called a "mortal," Crimson Star, unusually, did not refute it. Instead, she clenched her fists in anger, her whole body trembling.

He finally realized that what he had been facing in the past was never the complete red dragon, but only... a part of the red dragon.

Godwin looked at Yusei Fudo in the distance: "Yusei, do you understand now? Compared to the power of the Red Dragon, how weak are ordinary Synchro? As the only god of Synchro, how could the power possessed by the Red Dragon be something that other beings could ever hope to achieve?"

Without the power of a true, one God, even if everything were to return to its origin, this gap would be insurmountable.

Yusei did not respond; his gaze was firm, and he believed that Amagi Hikaru would definitely defeat Godwin.

"Have you finished talking nonsense?" Amagi Hikaru gave Godwin a cold look.

"Such unwavering spirit and determination, truly worthy of being the strongest Fusion User... When the Ultimate God is present, both sides can only overwrite one card per turn. I end my turn." Godwin himself still admired Amagi Hikaru, and rather than actually taking Amagi Hikaru's life, he hoped that Amagi Hikaru could understand his decision.

Yusei's dream was wonderful, but reality was too cruel.

Rather than the few impractical possibilities, he preferred the more stable and realistic "human god" concept. At least in this way, he could recreate humanity, get rid of those stupid, disgusting, crazy, and evil humans, and create a beautiful new world.

"My turn, draw a card!" Hikaru Amagi drew a card from his deck.

"Field Spell Card, Dreamscape." Hikaru Amagi glanced at his hand and held up one.

A book appeared behind him, and then its pages unfolded into an island. On the island, palaces, forests, and hills, like a fairyland, emerged.

"Magic Card, Magic Toy Addition: Fusion add Sharp Imp Chain and Magic Card from the deck to your hand."

"Magic Card Fusion—"

"At this moment, I activate the effects of the G-rank monsters that have multiplied in my hand."

!! ?
Hikaru Amagi's hand paused for a moment.

"During your or your opponent's turn, you can send this card from your hand to the Graveyard to activate this effect. Each time your opponent Special Summons a monster this turn, you draw 1 card."

Sky Dragon, ATK: 3000 → 2000.
"The Sky Dragon's attack power is 1000 points equal to the number of cards in your hand," Godwin explained with a cold laugh.

Hikaru Amagi frowned, looked at the cards in his hand, and shrugged.

"Merge the predatory plant glandular hair grass wasp in the hand card with the sharp little devil chain in the hand card."

"The fusion condition is that the monsters are plant-eating monsters and dark-attribute monsters."

"bring it on!"

"Fusion Summon, Level 7, Predatory Plant Chimera Flower!"

The earth churned, and vibrant flowers rose from the track, like the only stars amidst the mud.

Predatory plant Chimera Flower, Level 7, Dark attribute, Plant race, Attack power 2500.
Godwin casually drew a card, and at the same time, the Sky Dragon's attack power was restored to 3000.
"The effect of Dreamscape: If you control a Fusion Monster, or if a monster in your hand or on your field is sent to the Graveyard by a card effect, you can activate this effect. Draw 1 card from your Deck. The effect of Sharp Imp Chain: If this card is sent to the Graveyard from your hand or on your field by a card effect, add 1 Magical Toy card from your Deck to your hand. The effect of Predatory Plant Glandular Wasp: If this card is sent to the Graveyard, add 1 Predatory Plant monster from your Deck to your hand."

I added the predatory plant bottle ant and the magic toy patch to my hand, and then drew a card.

Hikaru Amagi glanced at the card he had drawn, then looked at his opponent.

"Great! Chimera Flower has the effect of banishing monsters on the field with a lower level than itself! We can just use Chimera Flower's effect to banish the Ultimate God monster—" Jack naturally knew about Chimera Flower's effect, and when he saw this, he shouted excitedly.

"Hehehe..." As if hearing Jack's voice, Godwin chuckled, "I told you, Ultimate God isn't a monster, it's a god—"

Putting aside the question of whether Ultimate God could be banished by such a monster... as long as I have other monsters on my field, Ultimate God cannot be targeted by attacks or effects. Furthermore, Ultimate God can only be banished once per turn and cannot be destroyed. Your attempt to banish a god is simply impossible!

"...Then let's fight!"

Amagi Hikaru commanded the Chimera Flower and Grass: "I know nothing of fear. No matter what we face, I and my fusion will face it together and move forward together!"
Just like this chimera flower!
Chimera Giant Flower attacks Sky Tyrant Dragon!

"Chimera Giant Flower can only be activated when an opponent declares an attack against a monster. Until the end of the turn, that opponent's monster loses 1000 ATK and this monster gains 1000 ATK!"

Chimera large flower, ATK: 2500→3500.
Sky Dragon, ATK: 3000 → 2000.
bang——

Godwin, LP: 4000 → 2500.
"Great! We've taken down the Sky Dragon, so now we can use the Chimera Flower's effects..." someone exclaimed excitedly.

"Naive!" Godwin was not annoyed at all by the damage and monster destruction. Instead, he turned around and opened a face-down card, "Trap Card Reincarnation Sprout!"

When a monster on your field is destroyed, you can set one Spell/Trap Card.

I'm covering one card!

The card has been overwritten!
So, at this moment—

"Awoooooooo!!!!"

Hikaru Amagi's eyes widened.

A massive, pitch-black gate opened before him, and with a roar, the gates of the underworld shattered, revealing a dragon with a body made of bones on Godwin's field!
"The Sigh of the Turbid Dragon of the Underworld!"

The Turbid Dragon of the Underworld, level 10, dark attribute, dragon race, attack power 4000.
"The Sigh of the Turbid Dragon of the Underworld!?" Jaden asked instinctively upon seeing the monster.

"Isn't that... the Netherworld Dragon?!" The dimensional fusion partners instantly realized.

Isn't this the Netherworld Dragon Death that Amagi really likes to use?!
Dragon's one-shot kill ability is extremely powerful.

Of course, that's not the point. The point is... isn't this Ah Guang's card?!

Amagi Hikaru wasn't surprised to see the monster, but the trembling of his right hand revealed his anger.

"The Wrath of the Netherworld Dragon is a further form of the Dragon's Death you possess; it is its true appearance." Godwin looked at the dragon beside him and chuckled.

“Last year, I used special means to give you the Netherworld Dragon because it was my brother’s keepsake, and I hoped it could find a suitable owner. But to my disappointment, you still haven’t awakened its true power.”

"Longwang doesn't want to return to this dimension. What Longwang prefers is its fused identity." Tiancheng Guang's tone was calm, but the anger beneath that calm was palpable to everyone. "I know it has a stronger form that can provide more spirit power, but I respect it, so I have never tried to awaken it in this dimension, because it was its choice—"

But you, Godwin, you don't care at all what anyone thinks! You're just satisfying yourself!

Whether in the past or present, Godwin talks about the world, but in essence, he is just satisfying himself.

To satisfy his own ideas.

"...I don't trust humans. In these five thousand years, I've seen far too many foolish and ridiculous people." Jian Longtan didn't cause Amagi Hikaru to lose his composure; Godwin's manic smile gradually faded.

"Five thousand years?" Jack was stunned.

"As expected, the Godwin brothers are not from this era!" Harald finally understood.

The Godwin brothers are survivors of the last "War of the One God"!
They don't know how they got through those 5000 years, and then they awoke again a little over a decade ago.

Unfortunately, it seems that only Reske Godwin succeeded.

"In the last great war of the One God, my brother and I witnessed the most greedy and despicable people in this world. They frantically fought for power and profit, pleasing the gods, acquiring privileges, ruling humanity, and then waging war against each other. Through a special secret technique, he and I were reincarnated into this era together, and successfully relied on our previous experience and performance to gain the support of the Earthbound God and the Red Dragon. We became Dark Signers and Dragon Signers."

"But humanity is so disappointing." Godwin's tone was icy. After activating the Dragon Mark and the Dark Mark, he fully recalled the memories of 5000 years ago. "War, famine, plague, there are endless disasters in the world. And if those at the highest levels just stopped their greed and gave away a little of their wealth, the world could become a better and more peaceful place."

but--"

He stretched out his hand and pointed around: "Look at these idiots!"
In the city, the nobles, the upper class, and the lower class were filled with oppression and greed.

Beyond the City, countless nations covet its wealth and wisdom!

These countries also have their strengths and weaknesses, and their rivalry with each other creates this greedy world!
How could I possibly believe that these things could explain true collaboration?

He finally voiced his thoughts.

“Godwin…” Yusei rarely showed a hint of sadness.

He took a deep breath and said, "But even so, that's no excuse for you to deceive everyone and the world!"

"Perhaps. But it doesn't matter anymore." Godwin sneered. "I am destined to do what I believe in."

He had long been utterly disillusioned with humanity and genuinely did not believe in Yusei's ideals.

"Overwrite one card." Hikaru Amagi looked at his hand and selected one to overwrite.

Because of the Red Dragon, you can only set one card per turn, so there's not much to choose from.

"Speaking of which, it seems to be a cycle of change." Godwin chuckled as he watched Amagi Hikaru's actions. "Half a year ago, if I hadn't witnessed your duel with Akaba Zero and seen the new possibilities, I probably would have carried out my plan back then."

"However, at that time, I realized that the power of those beings beyond this dimension was not weak either. If accumulated, it could become the pillar of the new gods—at that time, I did not have the right to use the Negative Red Dragon, nor could I find such a good opportunity."

I should be thanking you, Hikaru Amagi.

"Is that so? If that's the case, then it seems that it was destined for me to stand here and duel with you. Just like when you gave me the Nether Dragon through the Skeleton Knight... Now it seems that the one I was truly connected with at the beginning was actually you?" Hikaru Amagi examined the card in her hand. "Very well—since the possibility arose because of me, it would be best if I were the one to end it."

　6K briefly touched on Godwin's backstory, but removed most of the character's background from the comics because the comic book Godwin was a bit...unrefined, almost entirely driven by women.
