Traveling in reverse through the Yu-Gi-Oh! world with the MD system

"[Aviation Shark]'s monster effect activated! Use one Xyz Material to inflict 400 damage to your opponent for each card in your hand! I now have four cards in my hand!"

After revealing his hand, the shark pointed a finger at Soreva.

"Therefore, you are inflicted 1600 damage! [Aerial Torpedo]!"

Accompanied by the sound of sharks, the [Submarine Carrier Shark] flying in the air instantly launched four huge torpedoes. These four huge torpedoes quickly split in mid-air, each breaking into four smaller warheads, which landed next to Soreva, exploding into clouds of dust.

Soreva's LP also fell from 4000 points to 2400 points.

"Tch, you've got a knack for it."

"It's not over yet! Next, I'll activate the effect of [Silent Shark] in my hand!"

Amidst Soreva's complaints, the shark revealed another card.

"You can activate this during your Main Phase to Special Summon this card from your hand to your opponent's field!"

Then, Soreva was astonished to see a strange fish with a black back and purple belly appear on his field. Just as Soreva was wondering why the shark would send him such a monster, the shark's voice continued:

"When this card is successfully Special Summoned, the controller of this card can draw one card from their Deck, and the opponent who controls it gains 2000 LP!"

Although the shark's LP increased from 4000 to 6000 points, it also gave Soreva a free card, which made Soreva even more confused about the shark's purpose.

This should be of absolutely no benefit to the shark.

But then, a comment from the shark finally made Soreva understand his purpose:

"At the same time, as long as this card is face-up on the field, its controller's hand limit becomes 3! In other words, by the end of your turn, you must discard cards until you have only three cards left in your hand!"

Oh, I see. But as long as I have less than 3 cards in my hand before the end of my turn, or I stack this monster, wouldn't that be fine?

Upon hearing this, Soreva breathed a sigh of relief and watched as the shark ended its turn after placing two cards face down.

"Then, my turn, draw a card!"

Soreva's fingers slid heavily across the top of the deck, and as he looked at the cards that appeared in his hand, a slight smile appeared on his lips. After all, this starting hand was not bad.

After thinking for a moment, Soleva slammed the card onto his duel disk:

"My Normal Summon is [Micro Flame Star - Dragon Shi Jin]!"

As the light surged, a warrior clad in a dark green robe with gold trim, wielding a long staff, appeared on Soreva's field. At the tip of his staff, a cluster of golden flames burned fiercely, splitting into nine golden fire dragons that circled around him.

Immediately afterwards, Soreva affixed another card to the D panel:

"Then, I activate the Continuous Spell Card, [Flame Dance - [Celestial Pivot]]! As long as this Spell Card is in the Spell & Trap Zone, I can, in addition to my Normal Summon, Summon one Beast-Warrior monster during my Main Phase, just once!"

Upon hearing Soleva's voice, the shark's eyebrows shot up instantly. Just as he thought Soleva was about to summon yet another monster, Soleva's voice rang out again.

"At this moment, I activate the effect of [Micro Flame Star - Dragon Shi Jin]! Once per turn, if I activate a Spell/Trap Card with [Flame Dance] in its name, I can set one Trap Card with [Flame Dance] in its name from my Deck to my field!"

Instantly, a face-down card appeared at Soreva's feet. The next second, Soreva did something that astonished the shark:

"Next, I will stack the level 4 [Micro Flame Star - Dragon Shi Jin] and [Silent Shark] on the field! Xyz Summon!"

O dark, sinful dragon of the abyss! Now, raise your head from the depths of that abyss! Show yourself, [Abyss Lurker]!

Chapter 249 The Military Advisor of Liangshan Pavilion

As the two monsters on the field of Soreva transformed into two orbs of light, one red and one blue, and disappeared into the dark void, a jet-black dragon with a ghostly blue glow emanating from its entire body slowly raised its head, and the shark also realized that something was wrong.

If he remembered correctly, that guy called IV mainly focused on monster level changes and special summoning of high-level monsters, using high-level monsters for Xyz Summoning in duels.

He had anticipated that the person [Silent Shark] would be difficult to deal with, which was why he specifically activated this card.

Unexpectedly, the enemy in front of him used a level 4 monster to perform an Xyz Summon.

"Damn it, has IV changed his tactics? Or... is the person I'm dueling with now not IV?"

Unfortunately, this thought was barely formed before it was suppressed by the red light filling his eyes.

"No, this person must be IV! I have to defeat him!"

Meanwhile, on Soreva's side, with the appearance of [Abyssal Lurker], its effect was immediately activated:

"Now, I activate the effect of [Abyssal Lurker]! Once per turn, remove 1 Xyz Material. This turn, your opponent cannot activate the effects of cards in their Graveyard!"

"not good!"

Upon hearing this effect, the shark's face instantly darkened. In his graveyard, there was a card that he had discarded as an over-limit material to remove [Aviation Shark] as a precaution, but now it seemed he couldn't use it.

A crimson super-material instantly flew into the mouth of the [Abyss Lurker], and as the red light shone brightly from its mouth, the [Abyss Lurker] also spewed out a mouthful of black mist, which spread around the shark.

Soreva then picked up another card from his hand:

"Now, based on the effect of [Flame Dance - [Celestial Pivot]], I will perform a normal summon once again! This time, I summon [Radiant Star - Clear Image] from my hand!"

Another card fell, and this time, what appeared in the light was a warrior dressed in a black undershirt, with a white robe and golden armor on top, and who was unarmed. As it threw a punch, a giant elephant made of white flames appeared behind it, and on the forehead of this white flame elephant was even an ancient Chinese character "俊" (Jun).

"If this card is Normal or Special Summoned, you can send one face-up [Flame Dance] Spell/Trap Card from your field to the Graveyard, and Special Summon one [Fire Star] monster from your hand other than [Elephant Clear]!"

I choose to send [Flame Dance - [Tian Shu]] to the graveyard! Come, [Dark Flame Star - Xiong Zhi]!

At Soreva's call, a warrior wielding a broadsword and clad in black armor with gold and red trim slowly appeared. Behind him, dark red flames gradually transformed into the shape of a giant bear, on whose chest was also engraved the character "Dark".

"Then, I activate another effect of [Elephant Clear]! Return one [Flame Dance] Spell/Trap Card from my Graveyard to the Deck, and you can add one Level 5 or higher [Flame Star] monster from your Deck to your hand."

I choose to return [Flame Dance - [Tian Shu]] from the graveyard to the deck, and add [Longevity Flame Star - Li Panda] from the deck to my hand!

Finally, all the effects that Soreva could activate on the field have been activated, and it's time to move on to the next step.

"Next, if we're going to perform an Xyz Summon..."

For a moment, looking at his extras, Soreva hesitated, even though his current situation was completely capable of transforming into [Twelve Beasts Boar Bow] for a direct attack and then into [Sky Thunder].

However, the two blocks from the backcourt still gave him an ominous feeling.

In this case……

"Now, I have two Level 4 monsters with [Flame Star] in their names on the field, so I'm going to stack [Elephant Clear] and [Bear Spirit] on the field!"

O strategist of Liangshan Pavilion, who commands wind and rain! Now come riding on the clouds! With your blazing fire, scorch the stars! [Xianyan Star - Red Crown Victory]!

As the two warriors' bodies turned into red light and disappeared into the dark void, a divine rooster made of flames, with a red crest and white feathers, flapped its blazing wings and flew out of the void.

On the back of the divine rooster, the strategist, dressed in white robes, holding a magic sword, and sporting a full beard, leaped down and landed on Soreva's field.

"Now, I'll activate the effect of [Red Crown Victory] again! Remove both of this card's Xyz Materials!"

In an instant, [Red Crown Victory] raised his magic sword high and pointed it straight to the sky. The two crimson orbs of light surrounding him also instantly merged into the magic sword, making the pale flames burning on the magic sword even more intense.

And then Soreva's voice rang out:

"...Choose two cards from your field or graveyard whose names contain [Fire Star] or [Fire Dance], and two cards from your opponent's graveyard or field that are face-up, and return them to their respective decks!"

I choose to return [Bear's Will] and [Dragon's Surge] from my graveyard, along with [Aviation Shark] on your field and [Killer Frilled Shark] from your graveyard, to the deck!

Upon receiving the command, [Red Crown Victory] brandished his magic sword, commanding the red-crowned flaming rooster to unleash a deluge of fire from the sky. When the flames subsided, [Aviation Shark] had vanished from the shark arena.

Seeing this scene, Soreva couldn't help but grit his teeth:

"Damn! It's been so long since I played Flame Star. I only remember that [Red Crown Victory] can play cards, but I forgot that it can only play face-up cards!"

But, this situation shouldn't be too much of a problem for us to attack, right? Clinging to this hope, Soreva said:

"Then, attack! A direct attack from [Abyss Lurker] and [Red Crown Victory]!"

Despite having two cards face down, the shark didn't activate a single one, which greatly relieved Soreva. After being directly attacked by [Abyssal Lurker] with 2200 attack power and [Red Crown Victory] with 1800 attack power, the shark's LP dropped to 2000, and the advantage gained in the first turn vanished.

"Then, finally, I'll set one more card face down, and the turn ends."

Now that he had gained the upper hand, Soreva breathed a sigh of relief, completely unaware that the red light in the shark's eyes had also intensified considerably.

"My turn, draw a card!"

Upon seeing the card he had drawn, the shark instantly broke into a smile and slammed it onto his duel disk.

"My Normal Summon is [Hammershark]!"

As water splashed, a hammerhead shark, resembling one with a giant hammerhead on its forehead, appeared on the shark tank.

"Then I activate the effect of [Hammer Shark]! Once per turn during my Main Phase, I reduce my Level by 1 and Special Summon another Level 3 or lower WATER monster from my hand!"

Come on, [deep-sea dogfish]!

A small, slender deep-sea fish covered in tentacle-like tentacles suddenly appeared on the shark enclosure. The shark then raised its paw and opened a card at its feet.

"Now, I activate my Trap Card, [Super Pressure]! Destroy one monster on my field and send it to the Graveyard, then draw one card from my Deck!"

Chapter 250 The Ultimate Dance of Flames

Destroy a card on your field and draw a card from your deck?

Although Soreva didn't understand why Shark would give up a board state that could reliably create a Rank 3 Xyz Monster, sacrificing a monster to gain a hand card, it was better to nip the threat in the bud than to face an unknown threat directly.

"Counter Trap Card, [Extreme Flame Dance - [Chen Dou]] activated! If you control a [Fire Star] monster and a [Fire Dance] Spell/Trap Card, you can activate this card when it is activated. Negate that activation and destroy it!"

A burst of intense silver-white flames flew out from the card art of [Extreme Flame Dance - [Chen Dou]], immediately wrapping around the tip of the [Red Crown Victory] magic sword and merging into the body of the Flame God Chicken.

Immediately afterwards, the Flame God Chicken flapped its wings and flew up, piercing and shattering the [Super Water Pressure] that had opened at the shark's feet.

"Tsk!"

Seeing that his plan had failed, the shark clicked his tongue heavily. Now, he had no choice but to perform an Xyz Summon. However, Soreva's summoning was far from over:

"At this moment, I activate the effect of [Shouyanxing - Li Xiongmao] in my hand! This effect can only be activated if I activate the [Flame Dance] Spell/Trap Card myself. Special Summon this card from my hand!"

Amidst the scattering flames of the Flame God Chicken, a burly man clad in golden-red armor and wielding a longsword appeared. Behind him, on the black fur of the Flame Panda, a pure white "Longevity" character shone brightly.

"Furthermore, after a successful Special Summon based on this effect, you can Special Summon one [Fire Star] monster from your Graveyard, except for [Shouyan Star - Li Panda]!"

Reborn! [Junyan Star - Xiang Qing]!

The warrior who accompanies the White Flame Elephant has reappeared. It's a pity that there are no Spell/Trap Cards on Soreva's field to send it to the Graveyard, otherwise we could summon another monster.

As Soreva continued to call out, the sharks responded with an angry shout:

"Now it's my turn! I'll stack my Level 3 [Hammershark] and [Deepsea Shark] on my field! Xyz Summon!"

This malevolent deep-sea predator will become your eternal nightmare! Show yourself! [No. 47 Nightmare Shark]!

In an instant, the two strange fish on the shark field lost their shapes and turned into blue orbs of light that entered the dark void of the Xyz Summon.

Soon, deep blue seawater overflowed from the hole, and a strange fish quickly emerged from the turbulent water.
