Yu-Gi-Oh! The Pitfall Hero

“…Ah, that’s right! The trap card [Jurassic Impact] can’t be activated because it doesn’t meet the conditions, but…” He changed the subject and flipped over another face-down card behind him: “…But my preparations don’t stop there!”

As mentioned before, there are two face-down cards in the back row of Kenzan, and what Marufuji Sho confirmed earlier is only one of them. There is another one waiting to be activated!

Everyone: "That card is...?!"

"Hehehe... Right now, at the very moment you attack, the Trap Card [Absorption Shield] activates!"

"...What???"

Pointing to the trap card that was quickly flipped open in front of him, Kenzan continued to explain: "The effect of this card is - when an opponent's monster declares an attack, you can target 1 attacking monster. Negate that attacking monster's attack, and you gain Life Points equal to that monster's ATK."

A transparent, semi-circular energy shield appeared in front of Jian Shan, blocking the punitive iron fist unleashed by the [Super Transportation Robot - Mobile Base].

After that, it returned all the enormous power it had absorbed to Jian Shan himself.

This effect absorbs the attack power of the attacking monster, not its original attack power. Therefore, at this moment, Kenzan will recover 5000 HP at the same time as neutralizing the attack!

(Dilano Kenzan LP: 1600→6600)

"Phew~~~ That feels so good~~~"

Enveloped in a massive green light representing recovery, Jian Shan's health was instantly replenished and even showed signs of overflowing. After wiping the cold sweat from his forehead, he couldn't help but let out a sound of relief.

Thank goodness... thank goodness I had a backup plan, otherwise it would have been sent by now!

Kenzan's hand is currently 0, and Marufuji Sho has figured out his cards.

In this extreme state, the effect of the [Absorption Shield] was like a shot in the arm for him.

Even if he doesn't draw the card he wants in the next round, he no longer needs to worry about being taken down by a single attack from [Super Transportation Robot - Mobile Base]!

"Ughhhhhh...!!! A desperate struggle, Kenzan, are you some kind of unkillable cockroach?"

"Who are you calling a cockroach?! I'm clearly a dinosaur!"

Patting his chest muscles, Kenzan laughed smugly, "How about that! Senior Marufuji Sho... you survived the dinosaurs of the Ice Age, you won't give up so easily!"

"Gurgle... Round over!"

Having exhausted all his trump cards and tactics, Marufuji Sho, despite his deep resentment, could only helplessly end his turn.

However, to his relief, Jian Shan had already used up all his cards.

Unless he can unleash a powerful combo in the next turn to clear his own endgame, then... it's Marufuji Sho's victory!

With the combination of the Super Transport Robot - Mobile Base and the Extreme War Machine King War God Robot, how easy is it to defeat these two monsters?

"Heh... It's nothing, it just delays my victory by one round, there's no need to panic!"

Comforting himself with this thought, Marufuji Sho put down the Duel Disk in his hand and took a deep breath.

With favorable timing, location, and human factors, he had already given it his all.

The [Super Transport Robot - Mobile Base], which benefits from the Field Spell Card effect, will have its attack and defense reversed during battle, increasing from 0 to 5000...

The [Extreme War Machine King War God Machine] summoned through the [Transportation Machine Connection Zone] will not be destroyed by the effect, nor will its own effect be nullified!

If Yusei were here, he might be able to use the Rank 4 Xyz Monster Jenga to pull out Dynamax and defeat his monster head-on, but with Kenzan, it would be much more difficult!

Even if he could summon [Ultimate Transmission Terror Beast], he didn't have any other monsters that could be used as activation costs to consume them.

"Then, the chance for victory is at this moment!"

With his finger resting on the deck, feeling the strong bond between himself and the deck, and realizing that his chance of victory might only be this turn, Kenzan took a deep breath and suddenly drew the card: "My turn, draw!!!"

With a large swing of the arm, the card drew a bright, silvery-white arc in mid-air.

At this moment, everyone's eyes were drawn to Jian Shan's hand.

Will he be able to change the current situation and win the duel with this card?

"How's Sword Mountain?"

"Ahhh... I'm so nervous! Did I get it or not?!"

"……Well!"

Urged on by the crowd, Kenzan, who was also feeling nervous and couldn't help but grit his teeth, slowly turned his arm and flipped the card over.

then……

"...Yosh! Here it is! This is exactly the card I've been looking for!"

Marufuji Sho: "Wh...!!!"

Under everyone's watchful eyes, his expression shifted rapidly, from initial tension to excitement, and then to ecstatic joy. He immediately inserted the card he had drawn into the back row of the Duel Disk and activated it in one fell swoop: "...Spell Card [Fossil Investigation] activated! According to this card's effect, I can add one Level 6 or lower Dinosaur-Type monster from my Deck to my hand!"

Marufuji Sho: "Below 6 stars... Ha! I thought it was something else..."

"...Don't rush! My story hasn't even started yet! If you want to laugh, you can wait until the end! Marufuji Sho-senpai!"

He waved his hand, interrupting Marufuji Sho's taunts, and activated the Spell Card Sword Mountain. Then, using the effect of that card, he precisely searched his deck for a Dinosaur-Type monster: "I choose to add a Level 4 Dinosaur-Type monster to my hand—[Soul Eater Oviraptor]!"

"...I Normal Summon this card to the field and activate its monster effect to search my Deck for the Dinosaur-Type card 'Phantom Hybrid Dinosaur'!"

As Jianshan moved, a small carnivorous dragon, holding a Soul Egg in its hand and with eerie blue flames emanating from its back and head, appeared on his field accompanied by light.

Meanwhile, Kenzan also added a new dinosaur monster to his hand.

"Next, I discard the [Hybrid Dinosaur of Creation] from my hand and activate its effect, granting my Dinosaur-Type monsters on the field resistance to other card effects during the Main Phase."

As was his habit, Kenzan sent the tool dragon to the graveyard and once again waved his arm, activating its second effect: "Activate the second effect of [Phantom Creation Hybrid Dinosaur], banish this card from the graveyard, and Special Summon Level 1 [Jewel Beast - Calculation Dragon] (Dinosaur/LIGHT/Level 1/ATK: 0/DEF: 0) from the Deck!"

Formed from blue and gold orbs, it appears to be a small crocodile, but is classified as a monster of the dinosaur race. It appeared beside Kenzan amidst the waves.

This means that Kenzan now has two more dinosaur-type monsters on his field that possess temporary all-resistance attributes.

"...Specially summoning a monster with 0 attack power? Does it have some special effect?"

"Yes, that's right!"

Nodding, Kenzan continued, "The effect of [Jade Beast - Computational Dragon] can only be activated if it is successfully Normal or Special Summoned. Destroy 1 Dinosaur-Type monster from your hand and face-up monsters on your field, except for [Jade Beast - Computational Dragon]. Then, add 1 Reptile, Seadragon, or Winged Beast monster with the same Level as the destroyed monster, or 1 [Evolution Potion] Spell Card from your Deck to your hand."

"...I destroy my [Soul Eater Oviraptor] on the field, thereby searching my deck for one [Evolution Potion] Spell Card!"

"The [Evolution Medicine] Spell Card I chose to search is—[Ultimate Evolution Medicine]!"

-

Ultimate Evolution Drug

(Normal Spell Card)

Effect: You can only activate 1 card with this name per turn.

①: You can activate this effect by banishing 1 Dinosaur-Type monster and 1 non-Dinosaur-Type monster from your hand or Graveyard. Special Summon 1 Level 7 or higher Dinosaur-Type monster from your hand or Deck, ignoring its Summoning conditions.

-

As he said this, Kenzan took his deck from the Duel Disk, spread it out in his palm, and then selected a Spell Card.

He added his own cards to the deck, then shuffled the deck again and put it back into the Duel Disk.

"...[Ultimate Evolution Drug]? You're an Ultimate too?"

Upon hearing the name of the magic card that Kenzan mentioned, Marufuji Sho was momentarily stunned.

Why are there so many Ultimate series cards today?

The ultimate mobile fortress, the ultimate heavy machine god, and the ultimate evolution potion... Next up, is the ultimate dinosaur going to appear? Hahahaha...

"Yes, it's what you think!"

His pupils instantly transformed into vertical, dinosaur-like pupils. Suppressing the primal instincts rising within him, Kenzan abruptly inserted the spell card into the back row of his Duel Disk: "Spell Card [Ultimate Evolution Medicine] activated! I banish [Archaeopteryx - Ancient Bird] from my Graveyard and [Dark Tyrannosaurus] from my Dinosaur-Type, and Special Summon my Tamashi (Soul Card) - [Ultimate Conduction Terror Beast] from my Deck, ignoring its Summoning conditions!!!"

Everyone: "...!!!!"

The [Ultimate Transductive Terror Beast], carrying a powerful surge of electric light and boasting an attack power of 3500, descended from the sky and crashed into this futuristic mecha city.

Even the entire earth trembled violently due to this impact.

It was as if I had stepped onto the set of a tokusatsu movie. The giant dinosaur dragged its body and strolled around the city as if no one else was there. As it took its steps, the surrounding buildings, unable to withstand the pressure, began to collapse in a chain reaction.

A series of rumbling sounds began to echo continuously in the surroundings.

"Aaaaaaah... My territory, my giant robot city!!! Kenzan, look what you've done!!"

Seeing his future city destroyed, Marufuji Sho felt heartbroken and pained, and couldn't help but let out a cry of regret.

Although this was just a virtual image generated by the Duel Disk, and a new, intact city could be created again in the next duel, he was still unable to remain indifferent to the sight of dinosaurs causing destruction everywhere, as he was experiencing it firsthand.

"Hmph... This incessant chatter is so annoying! Senior Marufuji Sho, let me, Dilano Kenzan, end this boring farce!"

"Boring? Farce? You're clearly just putting on an act..."

If Marufuji Sho hadn't merged with the enemy and had attacked directly instead, the story might be very different now!

"Hmm, I don't deny that. Although I almost sent it, I've already won in this situation!"

Raising his arm, Kenzan activated the effect of the monster on the field: "Activate the effect of [Ultimate Conduction Terrorbeast], Tribute [Jewel Beast - Operational Dragon], and force all monsters on your opponent's field to face-down Defense Position without targeting!"

Under Kenzan's command, [Jewel Beast - Computational Dragon] transformed into a sky-blue energy wave and injected it into the body of [Ultimate Conductor Terror Beast].

After that, the [Ultimate Conductor Terrorbeast], which had received the effect bonus, simultaneously raised its large foot, then slammed it down, stomping on the concrete ground beneath its feet.

Along with its actions, strange phenomena such as building collapses, train derailments, and tower swaying occurred continuously.

A powerful earthquake struck again, with irresistible force, knocking the mobile fortress and the Ultimate Robot to the ground, changing their attack status to an unavoidable defensive status.

"...Battle has begun! [Ultimate Conduction Terror Beast] attacks all of Marufuji Sho's monsters! This card has the ability to attack all monsters, and when it attacks, at the start of the Damage Step for a Defense Position monster, you can send that Defense Position monster directly to the Graveyard and inflict 1000 effect damage to your opponent!"

The effect of [Ultimate Transmission Terror Beast] is similar to the direct grave-sending effect of [Skybreaker - Azeus].

Aside from its all-resistance attribute, which is unaffected by other card effects, no other monster can effectively counter this.

,[【|

It cannot be destroyed by combat, it cannot be destroyed by effects, it cannot be the target of effects, and its effects cannot be nullified...

These seemingly powerful resistances are completely useless against the [Ultimate Conduction Terror Beast]!

"...It's over. I, Dilano Sword Mountain, have claimed victory in this duel!"

As Kenzan made this announcement, the Ultimate Transducer Beast also arrived at the two Ultimate Machines displayed on the inside.

As Kenzan's words fell, the [Ultimate Conductor Terror Beast] once again raised its massive foot, crackling with lightning, and trampled the two paralyzed Ultimate Robots, along with their controller, Marufuji Sho, under its feet!
