Yu-Gi-Oh! The Pitfall Hero

Meanwhile, Yuki Judai, standing to the side, held his breath in tension.

Both sides seemed to have exhausted all their last means.

Now, it's time to truly determine the winner... right?

"【Red-Eyes Black Dragon】and the face-down card in your back row will be destroyed by the effect of 【Guardian Chimera】."

"You lost this duel!"

Yusei made this announcement to Tenjōin Fubuki, who seemed to be standing there in a daze.

In the duel arena, the fleshy wings of [Guardian Chimera] have already blocked the black flame bullets of [Red-Eyes Black Dragon].

Then, [Guardian Chimera] once again stretched out its thick arm, ripped the enhanced black dragon down from mid-air, and rubbed it against the energy platform.

At the same time, one of its three heads also shot out a white stream of energy towards Geka in Tenjōin Fubuki's back field.

"At this moment... if only I had the [Red-Eyes Recoil Dragon]!"

The effect of 【Red-Eyes Rewind Dragon】is to negate the destruction of Red-Eyes monsters and bring them back to the field from the Graveyard as they were, making it a true time-reversal.

"Originally, I didn't want things to come to this!"

With a sigh of helplessness, Tenjouin Fubuki finally made a move, revealing the face-down card in the back row before the Chimera's torrent arrived.

"At that very moment, the Trap Card—[Red-Eyes Incinerate]—activates!"

"Red-Eyes... burned out?!"

"This card's effect is—when a face-up 'Red-Eyes' monster you control is destroyed by battle or card effect, you can target that destroyed monster; both players take damage equal to that monster's original ATK."

Simply put, it's a Destruction Wheel exclusive to Red-Eyes monsters, usually used to finish off enemies.

Of course, it can also be used to perish together with the enemy.

……

(Yusei's LP: 1700)

(Tenjōin Fubuki's LP: 2400)

Due to the effect of the trap card, both sides will then receive damage equal to the original attack power of [Red-Eyes Black Dragon], which is 2400 points.

Feeling hopeless about victory, Tenjōin Fubuki ultimately chose to end the duel by taking everyone down with her.

A draw means that both sides will be swallowed by darkness!

What Yusei and the others didn't know was that there was more than one soul inside his body.

When the time comes, I'll just let that guy take my place and get sealed away!

Anyway… I still have another puppet named Fujiwara Yusuke…

Darkness, possessing Tenjōin Fubuki, couldn't help but have this thought flash through his mind.

"This guy actually plans to die together with us?"

"Yusei!!!"

Seemingly sensing its master's thoughts, the Red-Eyes Black Dragon, which was being held down by the Guardian Chimera, began to emit a continuous red glow from its body.

Under everyone's watchful eyes, the Red-Eyes Black Dragon chose to self-destruct, engulfing the entire platform area.

The residual force of the self-destruction caused significant turbulence in the sea of ​​lava beneath the platform.

"One for three... After you, perhaps the strongest among these people, leave the field, our righteous cause will be free from all gloom!"

"The Seven Star King... was there then, is there today, and will live on forever!"

As she uttered her farewell words, Tenjouin Fubuki, about to be engulfed by the explosion, revealed a crazed expression on her face.

That was a 1-for-3 trade! I'm totally in the winnings this time!

"...Ambush Card activated! [Rainbow Life]!"

However, just when Tenjōin Fubuki thought her long-cherished wish had finally come true, Yusei, with a calm expression, slowly opened the card in front of him.

That was another face-down card he had deliberately laid in ambush, besides the [Mark of He].

After anticipating Tenjouin Fubuki's strategy of reducing the opponent's health, he had been making thorough preparations for it.

Everything was for the purpose of giving him a huge surprise at this moment...

-

The Life of the Rainbow

(Trap Card)

Effect: You can activate this effect by discarding 1 card from your hand. Until the End Phase of this turn, you recover the amount of Life Points that you would have lost in battle or due to card effects.

-

"Based on the reversal effect of [Rainbow Life], I will restore [Red-Eyes Black Dragon]'s original attack power to its life points..." Sending a card from his hand to the graveyard, Yusei then put down his Duel Disk and accepted the restoration effect brought by [Rainbow Life].

Enveloped in this light, Yusei's wounds began to heal at a visible speed.

"Unfortunately, you are the only one who will be swallowed by darkness, darkness!"

In Yusei's pupils, which were empowered by the spirit's power, the black mist enveloping Tenjōin Fubuki's body remained visible.

Pointing at the mask worn by Tenjouin Fubuki, Yusei called out the name of the person behind Fubuki's body.

Tenjoin Fubuki (darkness): "...!!!"

"Oh no! This platform is going to disappear!"

"That sphere of light over there is the same! They both originate from the same source!"

As the energy platform gradually faded in color, Jaden Yuki couldn't help but gasp in surprise.

When they arrived, they were transported by light.

But if I go back... what should I do?

"Don't worry...it's already here to pick us up."

Looking towards the horizon, a glimmer of hope flashed in Yusei's eyes.

Before the explosion caused by the burning of the Red-Eyes Black Dragon could reach everyone, a sudden burst of seven-colored light enveloped their bodies, carrying them away from the interior of the volcano and to its foot.

Yusei, Jaden Yuki, Asuka Tenjōin, Hayato Maeda, Sho Marufuji... even Darkness Tenjōin was brought out by this light.

While still in mid-air, Tenjouin Fubuki (Darkness)'s body was already subjected to the baptism of [Red-Eyes Burn], suffering 2400 points of effect damage, and her health points were reduced to zero.

(Tenjōin Fubuki (Darkness) LP: 2400→0)

According to the rules of the Dark Duel, his soul will now be sealed into a card...

Of course, what will be sealed away at this moment is the soul of darkness...

……

Shortly after Yusei and the others left, the energy platform also quickly dissipated into nothingness in the aftershocks of the explosion.

At this moment, beyond the sky, the enormous, snow-white, and awe-inspiring phantom of the [Ultimate Treasure Rainbow Bridge Dragon] seemed to faintly appear.

Drawn by the light of the Rainbow Life, it saved everyone's lives from the dark duel.

After doing all this, its figure gradually disappeared in the seven-colored light, seemingly returning directly to the Elf Realm.

"The seven-colored rainbow dragon... what kind of being was that phantom that just saved us?"

Gazing at the distant night sky where the light had faded, Jaden Yuki, standing at the foot of the mountain, couldn't help but mutter to himself.

Just now, he seemed to have resonated with that great being.

A premonition suddenly arose in Yuki Judai's heart.

Perhaps, at some appropriate time in the future, I will meet it again.

"Don't worry... you'll find out later."

Yusei patted Jaden Yuki on the shoulder, a mysterious smile flashing across his face.

[Ultimate Gem Rainbow Bridge Dragon]...

That's a disguised version of the ace monster in the [Crystal Beast Deck] owned by John Anderson, Jaden Yuki's future best friend—[Ultimate Crystal Rainbow Dragon], a Fusion Monster with a speed-two field-clearing effect.

The true forms of these monsters, known as Jewel Beasts, are all extremely rare gemstones.

As for the ultimate gem, Rainbow Dragon, which unites the seven rainbow rays, its true form is currently sleeping in a stone slab of a ruin in this world, waiting to meet its master in the future.

One day in the future, Jaden Yuki will finally choose to confront his own heart and reunite with all the ties of the past...

After overcoming countless difficulties, he will eventually grow into Yuki Nijuku, and together with Yusei, become a ray of dawn that pierces through the long night...

……

"Yusei! Jaden! Are you alright?!"

"Big brother... Yusei!"

Behind Yusei and Jaden Yuki, the voices of Hayato Maeda and Sho Marufuji suddenly reached their ears.

Having been rescued by Rainbow Bridge Dragon, they are now heading towards Yusei and the others.

"Sho, Hayato! You two are alright...that's so great!"

Seeing that his three roommates had survived the Dark Duel unharmed, Jaden Yuki couldn't help but show a relieved expression.

Whatever happens with that rainbow dragon...

Anyway, according to Yusei, he will meet it again in the future.

Now, we should be celebrating our victory in the duel!

“话说回来五#一|一<}零%@①>⑦/*④+}五#|酒%%④/@⑨/+⑧七}八-八$零{七+%六#+一…加}1-N<$J0%１~7*4<5#9#%4*9>*8…明日香呢？”

Watching Yuki Jaden, Sho, and Hayato celebrate so enthusiastically, Yusei couldn't help but turn his head and start looking for Asuka's figure.

If I remember correctly, she seemed to have been teleported to Tenjōin Fubuki's side just now...

"Oh? There..."

Just as Yusei saw Asuka's figure not far away and was about to greet her, Asuka, who was in his field of vision, suddenly picked up a card from the ground.
