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

"This is... the energy left behind by Vector last time."

"Yes."

Nodding, [Hopleth] acknowledged Soreva's guess and immediately spoke,

"Moreover, I have just discovered that the power that man called the power of emblems, although it manifests differently from these powers, is essentially the same kind of power."

So I thought, if we could use the principle that they share a common origin, maybe we could fool that energy shield.

"real!"

Upon hearing [Hoples's] conjecture, Soreva's face immediately lit up with joy.

"So, I can now enter that energy shield to help Yuma?"

However, what responded to him was a soft cough from [Hoples] that seemed somewhat embarrassed:

"Ahem, well... that might not work. After all, there's not much energy left, so sending a whole person in might not be an option."

However, you can use this power to send him some cards.

"This……"

Although Soreva was somewhat disappointed to hear [Hoples] say that Vector's power was almost gone, he could still understand.

After all, these powers were just the remnants of Vector's power after he was expelled, and some time had passed since Vector tried to corrupt him. Soreva could understand why he only had this little bit of power left.

Of course, what Soreva didn't know was that, thanks to Hopeless's careful preservation, Vector's power was actually quite substantial, enough to barely send him inside.

However, this would leave Hopleth with insufficient power to create his own CNo. form.

So, [Hopleth] told a small lie for his own selfish reasons.

"Well then, that's all!"

Choosing the cards that shouldn't be banned from his deck, which were the enhancement cards for the [Hope] deck, Soreva, with the help of [Hopeles], gathered the gray power that originally belonged to Vector in his hand and enveloped those cards.

"Yuma! Accept these cards!"

Hearing the commotion behind him, and turning around to see Soreva making a throwing motion, the throne wanted to laugh, but what happened next made his eyes widen and he couldn't say anything to mock him.

The ball of gray energy that Soreva threw out passed through the energy shield as if it were not hindered at all, swept past the throne, and was caught by Yuma.

"these are……"

Catching these cards and seeing that they were clearly compatible with his deck, such as [AngryAngryAngry], [SwishLala], and [Onomatopoeia], Yuma immediately understood the purpose of Soleva throwing these cards to him.

Raising his hand to indicate to Soleva that he had caught the card, Yuma immediately called out to Soleva:

"Uncle! Thank you for the card!"

The only exception was the throne. Just moments before, he had declared his energy shield impenetrable, but the next second, Soreva successfully tossed the card to Yuma. Feeling utterly humiliated, he could only let out a cold snort.

"It's just a few cards! Do you really think you can win with that?"

"Then let's give it a try, Jade Throne!"

Facing the throne, Yuma immediately installed his D-Panel and D-Mirror, and added the card that Soreva had just thrown to him to his deck.

However, Yuma didn't notice that just as he was gesturing to Soleva, several cards from the deck Soleva threw to him were drawn by Astral.

Upon seeing these cards, Astral's eyes widened slightly in surprise:

"These cards are... the evolved form of [Hope]? Why are they in that man's hands?"

Despite his doubts, knowing that the duel was about to begin, he placed these cards, along with the [No.] cards that Yuma had helped him collect, into the card box where Yuma kept his Extra Deck.

Although he didn't know where Soleva got these cards from, he knew that Soleva gave them to Yuma to help Yuma win the duel.

And at this moment, the duel between Yuma and the Throne began:

"Duel!" ×2

Chapter 418: A dazzling Special Summon, along with Normal Summon, Set, and Pass!

"Then I'll take the first strike! Time to draw!"

Having seized the initiative, Yuma immediately added cards from the top of his deck to his hand. However, seeing the cards Soreva had thrown at him, Yuma, who hadn't been prepared, was immediately stumped.

"Um... I'll activate this Continuous Spell Card, [Onomatopoeia Selection], from my hand first! When this card is activated, you can add one [Onomatopoeia] card from your deck to your hand, except for [Onomatopoeia Selection]!"

Then……"

Looking at the two unfamiliar cards, [Onomatopoeia Link] and [Hopeful Emperor Onomatopoeia Utopia], displayed on his D panel screen, Yuma, perplexed, immediately sought help from Astral Sphere:

"Astral bodies..."

After the astral body floated to Yuma's side, it looked at the cards that appeared on the D-panel screen, immediately pointed to one of them, and offered Yuma a suggestion:

"Let's go with this one, [Hopeful Imperial Onomatopoeia Utopia]."

"it is good!"

Upon hearing Astral's suggestion, Yuma clicked on the card without hesitation. Only after the card bounced into his hand did Yuma remember to ask Astral a question.

"Astral Body, why did you choose this card?"

When faced with this question, Astral chose to remain silent. His real reason was simple: the card art for [Onomatopoeia] was closer to [Hope] and more likely to gain his trust.

As for Yuma, not having received a reply from Astral, he also began to examine the effect of this [Onomatopoeia Utopia]:

"Can this card be Summoned from your hand in Defense Position during your Main Phase by up to one each of the [Swimming], [GagGagGag], [RumbleRumble], and [RageRageRage] monsters other than this card?"

As for the self-restriction that prevents non-Xyz Monsters from being Special Summoned from the Extra Deck this turn after the effect is activated, Yuma brilliantly ignored it.

After all, his Extra Deck only has Xyz Monsters, so how can that be considered self-restraint?

However, after looking at his hand, Yuma made a bitter face.

The reason is simple: ever since he listened to Soreva's advice, he has almost completely transformed his original deck, which was a mix of four onomatopoeic characters, into the [I-I-I] deck, which has the most cards he can find and is the most flexible.

As a result, the only monster in his collection that now has any other field is the [Shua Lala Bancho - I I I Coat] that Soreva just gave him.

Although [Shalala Bancho - Ga Ga Ga Coat] does indeed have the [Shalala] keyword, it also has the effect of being able to Special Summon a monster other than [Shalala] or [Ga Ga Ga] from the hand if there is one on the field.

In other words, using the effect of [Onomatopoeia Utopia], his limit is to Special Summon three monsters on the field that can be used as Rank 4 Xyz Material.

But that should be enough, right?

"Now, I will Normal Summon [Hopeful Royal Onomatopoeia Utopia] from my hand!"

As Yuma played his card, a monster remarkably similar to [Hope of the Emperor], almost like its juvenile form, appeared on Yuma's field, wielding a single sword.

"Then, I activate the effect of [Hopeful Emperor's Onomatopoeia Utopia]! It can only be activated during my Main Phase. I can Special Summon up to one [Shrug], one [GagGagGag], one [RumbleRumble], and one [RageRageRage] monster from my hand in Defense Position!"

As he spoke, Yuma picked up two cards from his hand and displayed them before the throne:

"I choose to Special Summon [Gagaga Caster] which has the [Gagaga] field and [Shurala Bancho - Gagaga Coat] which has the [Shurala] field!"

In an instant, two monsters appeared on Yuma's field: one dressed in black delinquent school uniforms, wielding a serrated sword, and the other dressed in crisp black clothes, wearing a black and red cloak, holding a thin sword upside down.

And they are all level 4 monsters.

"Now, I'm stacking my Level 4 [Shua Lala Bancho - Ga Ga Ga Coat], [Onomatopoeia Utopia], and [Ga Ga Ga Caster] on my field! I'm building a stacking network with three monsters! Xyz Summon!"

Appear! [No. 16, the Ruler of Color]!

Seeing [Color Dominator], a card that is still a banned card even though it was weakened in the OCG, come onto Yuma's field, Soreva's lips twitched immediately.

Yuma knew that Yuma would use this card, and he had heard Kaito mention it before. So later, when he dueled with Yuma, he would try to limit Yuma from summoning a third Level 4 monster when he went first.

It's to avoid being blocked by this enhanced forbidden card!

Yuma, naturally, wouldn't waste the [Ruler of Color] that he had summoned after consuming three of his Level 4 monsters, and immediately raised his hand to activate its effect:

"Then, the effect of [Ruler of Color] activates! Once per turn, remove 1 Xyz Material, declare the type of 1 card, and until the end of the second turn after this effect is activated, negate the effects of any cards of the opponent's declared type!"

Although Yuma doesn't possess the same X-ray vision as Sei, after so many duels, he understands which cards should be blocked by this effect first.

"The card I want to negate is a monster card!"

At Yuma's voice, the three-piece character block [Ruler of Color] with dark red and black stripes flew out and transformed into a sealing barrier on the throne field.

And the jade throne, observing this strange phenomenon, murmured to itself:

"Two rounds? That's a powerful effect! If I had a card like that, taking down that guy Fica would be a piece of cake!"

As she spoke, the look in the Jade Throne's eyes towards the [Ruler of Color] was filled with an emotion that was hard to tell whether it was anticipation or desire.

Yuma, after the effect of [Ruler of Color] was activated, placed one of his cards face down:

"Finally, I'll set one card face down, and the turn ends!"

"Well then, it's my turn. Draw a card!"

After adding the top card of his deck to his hand, Yuzao looked at the cards on the field and feigned helplessness.

"Oh dear, all the monster effects are nullified, that's really troublesome! So..."

He slammed a card onto his D-pad, and a dragon, seemingly clad in pale armor over a black and purplish-red body, appeared on the field of the throne:

"I Normal Summon [Abercombe Dragon] from my hand!"

Immediately afterwards, the Jade Throne picked up two more cards and attached them to his D-plate.

"Then, I place two cards face down, and that ends the round."

There were no unnecessary movements, which surprised Yuma. After all, duelists he had faced before, such as Kaito and Soleva, would definitely do whatever it took to eliminate [Color Dominator] at this time, preventing it from having a second chance to activate its effect.

The throne, with its simple act of summoning a monster and then setting a card to the back row to end the game, gave Yuma a feeling of seeing his past self.

Chapter 419 The Ultimate Defense of Emblems

"Well then, it's my turn again, time to draw a card!"

Having replenished his hand to three cards, Yuma looked at the two cards face-down behind the throne and immediately made his choice.

"Then, I'll activate the effect of [Ruler of Color] once more! This time, I'll seal away your Trap Card!"

"Oh? A sealed trap card? That's a wise choice. But..."

He raised his hand and activated a face-down card from his back row, a sinister smile appearing on the throne's face.

"How could I let you succeed? Counter Trap Card, [Emblem Record]! This card can negate effects that use Xyz Materials!"
