Yu-Gi-Oh! The Pitfall Hero

"Things seem to be getting interesting!"

As the duel between Yusei and Daiyama was about to begin, Jaden Yuki, who had consciously stepped aside, couldn't help but show an excited expression on his face.

Although he also wanted to duel with this guy who claimed to have mastered the secrets of gacha, he decided to give the opportunity to Yusei for now!

After all, he was the one who took care of all the events that happened tonight.

The fact that we were able to intercept the Savage Mountain was largely thanks to Youxing leading the way.

Logically and emotionally, I shouldn't have taken away Yusei's chance to show off.

"Let me show you the results of my cultivation!"

With a confident expression on his face, Daiyama, who had retrieved the Duel Disk from the pile of junk, walked up to Yusei and put it on his wrist.

"Well, let's get started!"

Nodding at the mountain, Yusei raised the Duel Disk in his hand.

Jaden Yuki, the "God-Draw Prince," is getting a bit tired of playing Yusei.

Yusei is now very interested in seeing if this senior student named Daiyama, Obelisk Blue, has surpassed Yuki Jaden in terms of gacha luck and, as he said, touched the threshold of the realm of gods.

267 The Newspaper Duelist Who Brings Xiao Rong

Under the moonlight, beside the waterfall.

Surrounded by Yuki Jaden, Asuka, Aunt Tomi, and others.

The duel between Yusei and Daiyama has officially begun!

On one side is Obelisk Blue student, Ōyama Hei, who came to verify the results of his year-long training.

On the other hand, there was Yusei, who initiated the duel specifically to vent his anger at not winning the Golden Egg Bread.

And so, with the sound of the waterfall crashing down, the two men facing each other from afar simultaneously raised their duel disks!

Yusei: "Duel!"

Daiyama: "Duel!"

(Yusei's LP: 4000)

(Dashan's LP: 4000)

"Since you have no intention of making the first move... then I'll strike first in this duel!"

"My turn... Draw a card!"

Seeing that Yusei didn't make any move, the mountain of Duel Disks was raised, and he quickly seized the first attack.

After saying that, he quickly drew a card from his deck.

"Ah! Let me see your secret to gacha pulls!"

Nodding to the mountain, Yusei was fully prepared for the duel.

Looking at the [G-type] card in his hand, which allowed him to draw cards like crazy, Yusei couldn't help but smile with pleasure.

Alright! Hurry up and perform a Special Summon so I can draw cards like crazy!

"I summon [Thunder King] in attack stance (Thunder Clan/Light/4-star/Attack 1900/Defense 800)!"

A blue humanoid mechanical creature, riding on lightning and with limbs made of conductive materials, emerged from the light and appeared on the dueling field, accompanied by the call of the mountains.

To Yusei's surprise, the mountain, which looked like a Tarzan and a brute, did not launch its attack in the first turn as Yusei had expected. Instead, it chose to Normal Summon a hard-working monster from the underworld deck—Rai-Oh.

"Hmm...??? Thunder King is alright... Is he going to recruit Gluttonous Beasts next...?"

Looking at this hardworking monster that often appears in the newspaper's deck along with "Surf Prosecutor," Yusei couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.

The monster 【Thunder King】is a 4-star monster that can be directly Normal Summoned, and its attack power of 1900 points is considered the ceiling for this level.

In addition, it also has the effect of restricting the opponent's card draw and negating one of the opponent's Special Summons at its own cost...

In some ways, it is a rather troublesome monster.

"[Thunder King]... It's actually this monster! Yusei's in trouble now!"

Seeing the monster appear in front of the mountain, Jaden Yuki couldn't help but show a worried expression.

If this Rai-Oh isn't dealt with, Yusei won't be able to add cards from his deck to his hand through any means other than drawing cards. Spell cards with search effects, such as [E-Emergency Call] and [Reinforcements], will become unusable.

Even if a high-level monster is Special Summoned, it can be directly negated by the effect of [Thunder King]...

If a hero deck can't retrieve materials from the deck itself, that's a bit tricky...

unless……

"...Unless I perform a multi-stage special summon, is that right?"

As if in response to Jaden Yuki's thoughts, Yusei uttered these words.

[Rai-Oh]'s self-destruct effect can only be used once. If Yusei performs multiple special summons in one turn, he can naturally avoid the interference of this effect.

only……

Will things really go that smoothly?

Will the mountain that summons the Thunder King really just do nothing and end its turn directly?

"Oh? So you know about the effects of Thunder King... In that case, you probably know what I'm going to do next, right?"

With a smug look on his face, Da Shan said this and then immediately covered all five cards in his hand: "I've buried five cards. End of turn!"

Yusei: "Σ(⊙▽⊙"a……Holy crap!"

"What exactly is Da Shan planning to do?"

"Wasn't he supposed to be testing the secrets of gacha pulls? What is he doing...?"

"He just smothered all his cards at once, could he be planning to..."

"Could it be... that his hand contains only one monster card, and all the others are trap cards?"

"No way! No way! There can't really be such a weird deck..."

The crowd couldn't help but show various expressions in response to Da Shan's bizarre actions.

This was the first time they had ever seen such a move, covering the entire backcourt at once.

For Yusei, this familiar scene reminded him of his dueling experiences before coming to this world.

Newspaper deck...!

This is to give back to society and bring everyone Xiaorong's ultimate underworld deck...

The deck itself is designed to counter decks and to annoy opponents.

When playing against this kind of deck, you have to be prepared to have a completely ruined gaming experience and be constantly countered until you're at your wit's end...

"Dashan... I never imagined you were a member of the newspaper party..."

Looking at the savage man in front of him, with long hair reaching his waist, unkempt appearance, wearing only a pair of tattered shorts, and thick eyebrows and big eyes, Yusei couldn't help but feel a hint of surprise in his eyes.

You can't tell just by looking at your appearance. I never imagined you were so vicious!

Five cards were suddenly laid in the back row, which could very well be a major trap...

Fuck you!

"Hahahaha... Come on! Use whatever tricks you have up your sleeve!"

With a broad smile, Daiyama extended his right hand and beckoned to Yusei with his finger: "Five face-down cards... I won't hide anything, I'll just tell you directly, these are all trap cards!"

"I'd like to see what tricks you can pull under these circumstances!"

"Letting me seize the initiative was your biggest miscalculation! Now that I've mastered the art of card drawing, I can draw all the cards I want right away..."

"Hahahaha... I'm so strong now, even I'm scared of myself!"

Everyone: "..."

"It feels... a bit like cheating..."

Asuka unconsciously murmured something to herself, her gaze lingering on Yusei.

Yusei...

How do you plan to counter the mountain's tactics...?

"A second pit, huh..."

Since coming to Duel Academy, the parade has rarely used such underhanded tactics.

After all, as a top OCG player, he is practically a god to the characters in the original work.

Normally, you can just play cards as usual; there's no need to deliberately act like a ghost and lower your own standards...

However, just when Yusei was about to turn over a new leaf, he encountered Daiyama, the duelist from the underworld, once again...

"...Since you're so heartless, then don't blame me for being ruthless too!"

Trying to play dirty tricks in front of me, the hero of the heavy pit? You're asking for trouble!

It seems I have to let you experience what it's like to "smile through your teeth"!

"..."

Yusei placed his palm on his deck, closed his eyes, and then drew a new card from it: "My deck! Answer my wish... send that removal card into my hand!"

The card that was drawn drew a bright arc in front of Yusei, then followed his arm and came to rest on his upper right.

Everything will change at this moment!

He flipped the card over so that it faced him, looking at the card he had just drawn.

—【The Harpy's Feather Duster】!

It was exactly the card I wanted.

Like Jaden Yuki, Yusei's will also manifested as a tangible bond...

Yusei's deck answered his call, delivering the card he needed most in this situation to his hand.
