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

"These are the rules of our duel. You must use these cards in combination with other cards to form a completely new deck and duel me. If I lose, I will, of course, accept the consequences."

But if you lose, this body will belong to me forever!

Upon hearing the wager proposed by [Cyber ​​Beast System Destroyer], Kaito didn't speak, but his fists clenched. Noticing Kaito's movement, Soleva immediately placed his hand on Kaito's shoulder.

"Calm down, Kaito! What we need to do next is to use a duel to take back Orbit Seven's body. Besides, this [No.] is not simple. If we don't stay calm and fall into its trap, it will be really bad."

Having said that, Soreva turned to the [Cybermon System Destroyer] that had taken over Orbit 7's body and asked for confirmation.

"You wouldn't tamper with the cards we're going to use, would you?"

In response, the [Computer Beast System Destroyer], which clearly exists within machinery and data, immediately let out a cold snort:

"Hmph! Don't worry, I wouldn't do such a thing. As long as the card is recorded in this robot's database, you can retrieve and use it!"

"Oh? Is that so..."

Dragging out the words, Soleva tentatively typed "machine cutter" into the search box. Soon, the data for the [block machine cutter operator Laplace] that Soleva had used when facing Yuma last time was clearly recorded in the file.

A slight smile appeared on Soreva's face:

"It seems we're not without a chance of winning. Let me see which cards we'll be forced to use."

However, when Soreva saw those cards, cold sweat instantly beaded on his forehead.

"This deck series called [Super Defense Robot]... isn't it a bit too bland?"

However, Kaito was very perceptive and realized exactly what kind of cards these were:

"These are... cards from Orbit 7? I see. In that case, I'll use these cards that originally belonged to Orbit 7 to deal with you!"

"Hmph! If you can do it, then give it a try!"

Chapter 321 Forbidden Cards and the Exorcism

However, just as they were building this deck, Soreva and Kaito suddenly had a disagreement.

"Kaito, I'm begging you, please play fewer of these [Super Defense Robot] cards. They're really not very effective. Play fewer of them and include more cards from other decks. That way, we'll have a better chance of winning..."

"Since this guy dared to take over the body of Orbit 7, I will definitely use Orbit 7's cards to defeat him fair and square!"

"But even if you play all three copies of each card from Orbit 7, it still won't meet the deck's requirements! Wake up!"

Ultimately, what emerged from the argument between Soleva and Kaito was a bloated deck that mixed together cards with the [Super Defense Robot], [Ancient Machine], and even some [Mech Force] elements, as well as some general-purpose cards.

With the two finally reaching an agreement, Soreva's finger touched the confirmation button on the tablet screen, and the voice of [Cyber ​​Beast System Destroyer] slowly sounded:

"Then, let the duel begin!"

Immediately, the screen on the tablet changed to a standard Yu-Gi-Oh! battle interface, and the voice of "[Cyber ​​Beast System Destroyer]" rang out.

"Well then, I've got the first strike, time to draw cards!"

Seeing [Computer Beast System Destroyer]'s hand increase from five to six cards at the top of the screen, Soreva's face instantly darkened:

"You're going straight for the first strike? You're using a computer now, can't you at least use a coin or dice to be fair?"

After complaining, Soreva looked at the cards in his hand and let out a sigh.

"Sigh, this hand... I knew it. A deck with 60 cards would definitely end up like this. Only one card in each slot is in hand, making synergy difficult..."

Fortunately, there's still one [Famous Mystery] card we can use.

However, the voice of [Cyber ​​Beast System Destroyer] that followed immediately made Soreva somewhat uneasy:

"I can activate the effect of [Water Dragon - Flowing Dragon] in my hand by discarding this card and one WATER monster or Dragon monster to Special Summon one [Waterfall Dragon - Tide Dragon] from my Deck!"

???

What's going on? Dragon Slayer? Isn't that a banned card? How did it appear now? Even if you activate its effect, do you really think you can summon the giant dragon?

However, as [Cyber ​​Beast System Destroyer] sent a small blue dragon and another large dragon named [Flame Dragon - Explosive Dragon], which was mainly in the color scheme of red and black magma with bright yellow as an embellishment, to the graveyard, a huge flying dragon with flowing blue and white colors actually appeared on its field.

"Oh my god! Someone's playing with banned cards!"

After nearly transforming his face into a replica of the famous painting "The Scream," Soreva suddenly remembered something.

"Uh...it seems that the [Dragon Conqueror] series came out when Z4 was airing? So, it's reasonable for them to release [Dragon Conqueror] at this time?"

However, [Cyber ​​Beast System Destroyer]'s actions did not end there:

"Immediately afterward, I activate the effect of [Storm Dragon - Gale Dragon] in my hand! Banish two WIND or Dragon monsters from your hand or Graveyard, and this card can be Special Summoned from your hand or Graveyard!"

Therefore, I will banish [Water Dragon - Drift Dragon] and [Fire Dragon - Blast Dragon] from my Graveyard and Special Summon [Storm Dragon - Gale Dragon]!

Seeing the same level 7 dragon, the one controlling the storm, arrive next to the dragon controlling the water, Soleva could only say, "I'm speechless."

He knew a little about [Cyber ​​Beast System Destroyer], which could be Xyz Summoned by using two Level 7 monsters, and all of its effects were related to banishment.

It has strong synergy with the [Kusha Wrathful Race], which is also a Level 7 monster and a Level 7 Xyz Summon, and whose effect is also characterized by banishment.

Together with the Divine Monument deck, which also has a powerful banishment effect, these two are known as the two major banishment decks in the OCG.

Soreva's previous nonchalant attitude towards [Cyber ​​Beast System Destroyer] was largely due to the fact that in this world, there shouldn't be any good Rank 7 decks that could synergize with [Cyber ​​Beast System Destroyer]'s combo.

Until he saw [Zhenglong].

Right after [Bai Long] appeared, the voice of [Cybermon System Destroyer] rang out again:

"Since [Flame Dragon - Explosive Dragon] is banished, I activate its effect: when it is banished, add a Dragon-type FIRE monster to my hand."

The card I chose to add to my hand is [Flame Dragon - Burning Dragon].

With the addition of another card, [Cyber ​​Beast System Destroyer]'s hand size returned to 4 cards, and at that moment, its electronic voice began chanting:

"Then, I will stack my Level 7 [Tide Dragon] and [Soaring Dragon] on the field to form a stacking network of two monsters and Xyz Summon them!"

"Appear, my true form! [No. 89 Computer Beast System Destroyer]!"

Since it was on a tablet, the appearance of [No. 89 Cyber ​​Beast System Destroyer] was simply a card animation before it appeared on its own field as a card.

However, even those few seconds of animation were enough for Soreva and Kaito to remember its appearance.

The main body is a ghost constructed from red, misleading blocks of color, but on this ghost's body are solid black and dark gold armor and weapons. A pair of solid crimson wings unfold behind it, and on the right wing, there is the number "89".

"Next, I activate my own effect! Once per turn, remove one Xyz Material, check your opponent's Extra Deck, and banish one of its cards face down."

Immediately afterwards, a [Storm Dragon - Soaring Dragon] was sent to the graveyard from under [Cyber ​​Beast System Destroyer], and another card flew from the inside of Soreva's Extra Deck to the area where the banished card was located.

Soreva quickly checked which card had been excluded, and his face immediately darkened:

"[Galaxy-Eyes Lightwave Dragon] has been banished? Damn it, this means the [Lightwave Dragon] derivative series in the Extra Deck is now unusable."

However, even as Soreva was complaining, [Cyber ​​Beast]'s actions were not yet over:

"According to my other effect, if an opponent's card is banished face-down, you can banish cards from the top face-down position of their deck equal to the number of cards banished face-down. This effect can only be used once per turn."

Since you currently only have one card excluded from the inside, I can only exclude one of your cards from the inside as well.

With another card at the top of the Soreva deck being banished, [Cyber ​​Beast] finally seemed ready to stop.

"So, I'll set two cards face down to end the turn."

"Tsk, so it's finally our turn? Well then, it's my turn, draw a card!"

Seeing that he had successfully obtained the [Planetary Transformation] card, Soreva breathed a slight sigh of relief and immediately played the [Planetary Transformation] card.

"Then, I activate the Spell Card [Planet Transformation]. This card can add one Field Spell Card from your Deck to your hand. I choose to add [Gear Street] to my hand."

However, just as Soleva was about to select [Gear Street] on the tablet, Kaito suddenly reached out and grabbed Soleva's wrist:

"No, don't choose this card."

Chapter 322 Mechanical Dance

After grabbing Soleva's hand, Kaito quickly slid his hand across the tablet and soon found the card he thought was better:

"Wouldn't it be better to use this [Robot Circus]? It would pair perfectly with the [Super Defense Robot Electric Elephant] you have, wouldn't it?"

"Well... I don't mind using this card's Special Summon to get rid of this useless card in my hand. However, this might put a bit of pressure on the [Ancient Gear] deck to summon Level 8 monsters..."

After some deliberation, Soreva finally agreed with Kaito's suggestion.

"Alright then, I'll add this [Robot Circus] to my hand. Then, activate [Robot Circus]!"

With a flick of his finger, Soreva instantly created a Field Spell Card on his and Kaito's field. However, whether it was a design by [Cybermon] or not, after this Field Spell Card was activated, the border of the entire screen actually changed to a circus-like color scheme.

After fulfilling Kaito's wish, Soreva's finger also touched the [Famous Mystery] card:

"Now, I activate the Spell Card [Name Deduction]! After this card is activated, your opponent declares their level, and then you flip over the top cards of your Deck until a monster that can be Normal Summoned appears!"

If a monster's Level is the same as its declared Level, all revealed cards are sent to the Graveyard; if a monster's Level is different from its declared Level, that monster is Special Summoned, and all remaining cards are sent to the Graveyard!

Soreva quickly saw the level that [Cyber ​​Beast] had declared for this card.

"Level 4? Well, it's a versatile but useful level..."

As he muttered to himself, Soreva watched as the computer-controlled deck began sending cards one by one into the graveyard.

"One [Gear Street], one [Ancient Mechanical Fortress]... Can you please put one in the graveyard? Uh... [Supercritical Mech Force]? Never mind then, and then a monster card..."

Having muttered this to himself, Soreva finally perked up and began to pray silently:

"Please! It can't be a Level 4 monster! Special Summon one for me! Oh, I don't mind if it has a Graveyard effect."

Soon, the card revealed its true nature, and the excited expression that was about to appear on Soreva's face instantly froze.

"Uh... [Mech Squad Colonel]? Can't recruit all of them? Fine, let's keep stacking them!"

Then another card appeared, and this time, Soreva was finally able to cheer:

"[Ancient Mechanical Dragon]? Alright, Special Summon! Come, [Ancient Mechanical Dragon]!"

Instantly, a huge, turquoise mechanical dragon appeared on Soreva's field. Although, due to its Special Summon, this [Ancient Mechanical Dragon] could not activate the effects of Spell/Trap Cards when it attacked, which was unique to the [Ancient Gear] deck.

However, as a Level 8 high-level monster, its level and Blue-Eyes White Dragon's 3000 attack power are already its greatest value.

Immediately afterwards, Soreva's finger touched another card in his hand:

"Then next, I'll choose to summon an [Ancient Mechanical Dragon] using the normal summoning method!"

As Soleva swiped his finger, a mechanical dragon identical to [Ancient Mechanical Dragon] appeared on his field, but several sizes smaller. Soleva then activated its effect.

"When this monster is Normal or Special Summoned, you can add one [Ancient Gear] card other than this card to your hand from your Deck. However, after this effect is activated, you cannot set any cards this turn!"
