Yu-Gi-Oh! The Pitfall Hero

Although his attack power couldn't surpass that massive spaceship, the hero wasn't about to just sit and wait to die.

Even if he is destined to fade away, he will still bloom with his fleeting beauty before he withers away...

517 Beloved Contact, Shining New Universe Wingman!

"Hmph! Useless action... Vanish! Giant battleship laser!!!"

"Flame Winged Man, don't be afraid, push back... Take this, Lightning Wing Shatter!!!"

As Silver Meteor and Jaden Yuki simultaneously shouted out the names of their attack moves, the bodies of the two monsters on their respective fields collided in mid-air as they rushed towards each other in opposite directions.

Not intending to sit idly by and wait for death, Jaden Yuki aimed at the core of the warship he had seen earlier and instructed the Flame Wingers on the field to raise their fangs in a counterattack against the massive warship.

Silver Meteor, equally unwilling to be outdone, dealt a merciless blow to the fool who dared to challenge its power.

Thus, with the boost from the Field Spell Card, the [Giant Battleship Cannon Core], whose attack power surged to 3000, clashed head-on with the Flame Wingman, whose attack power was only 2100, who charged towards it without hesitation.

Naturally, unlike the stalemate scenes in shooting games, the Flame Winged Man, whose attack power was still insufficient, was unable to penetrate the invincible defenses of the giant warship.

After managing to create a small but significant gap in the warship's protective shield, the Flamewing Man was engulfed in destructive energy by the laser beams fired at it from the massive warship, turning into golden particles of light...

"Hmm... Flame Winged Man!"

The monster was destroyed by the laser, and then Jaden Yuki suffered a backlash from the monster's attack. He instinctively raised his arm to protect his face.

As he felt the oppressive force of the wind whistling through the air, his health points were also reduced.

(Yujo Judai LP: 3700 → 2800)

"...Hmph! Foolish fellow...the light of a firefly dares to compete with the bright moon!"

Witnessing the Flamewing Man's self-destructive path, Silver Meteor sneered disdainfully while raising his arm, instructing another monster on the field to launch a direct attack on its opponent: "Attack continues! [Giant Battleship Quadruple Arms] (Attack Power: 2300) launches a direct attack on Jaden Yuki! Take this..."

"...Wait! At the very moment you attack, I activate the effect of [Elemental HERO Neos Elf] in my hand. If my opponent attacks directly, I Special Summon this card from my hand! This card Special Summoned by this effect cannot be destroyed by battle!"

Seizing the opportune moment, Jaden Yuki waved away the smoke emanating from his body and placed a monster card from his hand face up on the Duel Disk deck.

Silver Meteor: "...What?!"

"...Appear! [Elemental Hero - Neo-Elf] (Attack Power: 2500)!"

As Yuki Jaden finished speaking, Shin-Uchi, whose body appeared somewhat ethereal, appeared in front of him with his arms crossed.

The [Elemental Hero Neo-Elf] with an attack power of 2500 naturally adopts an attack stance when facing the [Giant Battleship Quadruple Arms] with an attack power of 2300.

The monster that blocked the path of the giant battleship to Jaden Yuki gave its wielder, Jaden Yuki, a great sense of security.

"Tsk... Attack canceled!"

Since the number of monsters on the field has changed, Silver Meteor can now retract its previous attack declaration.

Realizing that his monster was no match for the Neo-Elf, he decisively canceled the self-destructive attack, ordered the giant warship to withdraw its offensive, and hovered above his head again.

"The second effect of [Elemental HERO Neos Elf] is activated! If this card is Special Summoned, add one Spell/Trap Card with the [Elemental HERO] name from my Deck to my hand, or one [Fusion] card..."

Raising his arm, during his opponent's turn, Jaden Yuki triggered the effect of his monster: "...Based on the effect of [Elemental HERO Neos Elf], I add the Spell Card [Hero's Heart] from my Deck to my hand."

The indicator light on the Duel Disk flashed and automatically ejected a card.

As Jaden Yuki reached out and took the card, he displayed a highly fashionable pose, drawing a perfect arc in front of himself with the card.

The Heart of a Hero

(Spell Card)

Effect: Target 1 face-up "Elemental HERO" monster you control. This monster's ATK is halved this turn, and it can attack twice during the same Battle Phase.

-

"Well then, Silver Meteor... if there's nothing else, then you may end your turn!"

Looking at the spirit of the new universe warrior guarding him, Jaden Yuki smiled faintly and then urged his opponent on.

With the arrival of the [Elemental Hero - Neo-Elf], who is undamaged by battle and boasts an attack power of 2500, Silver Meteor can no longer inflict any damage on him.

"Hmph! Judai Yuki... Although you have a calm expression on your face, you're actually panicking to death inside, aren't you?"

Instead of ending his turn, Silver Meteor, entering Main Phase 2, put one hand on his hip, and after stylishly adjusting his bangs, pointed with another finger in the direction of Jaden Yuki.

Yujo Judai: “?”

Not knowing why Silver Meteor suddenly said that, Jaden Yuki slowly typed out a question mark.

The reason he reacted this way was not because he had a problem, but because he felt that the Silver Meteor on the other side had a very problem.

Whether in terms of thought or behavior.

"Hmph! No need to explain, I understand! I understand everything!" Silver Meteor waved his five fingers in front of his eyes, and replied on behalf of Jaden Yuki in an extremely exaggerated tone: "Right now, you must be thinking about how to break my invincible tactics, right?"

"Hmph... Let me tell you the truth, this cannot be reversed! Now that my final act has been completed, it is already my victory! Even if the old god were to be reborn, he could not change this inevitable outcome!"

"..."

You know nothing!

Sighing helplessly, Yuki Judai, feeling utterly speechless at Gin Meteor's behavior, paused for a moment, then raised an eyebrow and said to Gin Meteor, who was engrossed in his own world, "...Have you always been dueling like this?"

"...Huh? Using a BOSS character to defeat the trash, there's nothing more fun and enjoyable than that, right?"

Unable to understand why Jaden Yuki would say such a thing, Gin Ryusei paused for a moment before instinctively revealing his true thoughts.

Having experienced few setbacks and had a relatively smooth life, he naturally couldn't understand what Yuki Jaden and Yusei were thinking at this moment.

"Really? So that's what you thought?" After carefully considering her words, Jaden Yuki continued with a smile, "Well... I can only say that people are all different, and everyone has their own unique ideas."

"What...you idiot, just say what you want to say, stop playing the riddle game! I have no idea what you're trying to say!"

Frowning, a deep sense of doubt appeared in Silver Meteor's eyes.

If you have something to say, just say it directly to my face! What's the point of deliberately beating around the bush like that?

Jaden Yuki: "You... do you have absolutely no idea what the fun of dueling is?"

Seeing that Gin Meteor said this, Jaden Yuki stopped trying to get to the bottom of things and directly expressed his true opinion.

Silver Meteor: "...?"

Jaden Yuki: "Hmm... You don't understand, do you? Well... In my opinion, dueling is something much more profound, not something that can be compared to a shooting game."

"...Holy crap! I actually heard the word 'profound' from that single-celled organism, Jaden Yuki?!"

Seeing Jaden Yuki do something out of character, Manjoume, who had maintained a cheerful expression, couldn't help but let out an out-of-control shout.

This scene is almost like a sow climbing a tree...it makes people applaud in amazement.

"...This is completely inappropriate! These words are absolutely not suitable to come out of my older brother's mouth...I don't know anyone named Yuki Judai!!!"

With his right hand covering his forehead, Marufuji Sho, feeling somewhat embarrassed by his older brother, decisively adopted a posture of pretending not to know him.

Call me Big Brother when you need something, otherwise call me Tenth Generation...

This is the nature of Marufuji Sho, which has never changed and cannot be changed.

Having already seen through this, Yusei merely pursed his lips slightly after hearing Marufuji Sho's words of disassociation, and said nothing more.

"Ahem! In short... what I'm trying to say is that you've never experienced the joy of a duel!"

With a smirk, Jaden Yuki extended his right index finger and pointed it at the bewildered Gin Meteor, seizing the initiative for the turn. He said with a smile, "Now, let me show you what the coolest and most fun duel is all about!"

"Varied……"

"My turn, draw a card!"

Glancing at the stunned Silver Meteor opposite him, Jaden Yuki suddenly waved his hand and drew a brand new card from his deck.

At the same time, he also activated the effects of the monsters on his field.

"First... the third effect of [Elemental HERO Neos Elf] activates! During my Main Phase, return this card to the Deck, then Special Summon 1 [Elemental HERO] Normal Monster from the Deck!"

"...Come on! Neos!"

As the New Universe Spirit, in its spirit form, departed, Ultraman, with his silver-white streamlined body, also broke through the boundaries of space and appeared on Yuki Jaden's field.

Although Neo-Universe is just an ordinary bone monster with no real effect, it possesses infinite potential and can fuse with other monsters to summon many fusion hero monsters with special abilities.

(【Elemental Hero Neos】Attack Power: 2500)

"Ha... A normal monster with an attack power of 2500? This is the cool and fun duel you talked about, this is the ace monster you pinned your hopes on?"

Seeing the Neostalker standing in front of Jaden Yuki, hands on hips, Silver Meteor raised an eyebrow and couldn't help but utter a series of questioning sounds: "...That's it? Are you kidding me?"

"Don't rush! This is just the beginning!"

Unfazed by Silver Meteor's words, Jaden Yuki waved his hand and smiled as he flipped over the face-down card he had been hiding in the back row: "Next, I'll open the hidden card in the back row and activate the Trap Card [Beloved Contact]!"

"...You can only activate 1 card with this card name per turn. Return the Fusion Material Monsters listed on a Fusion Monster Card to the bottom of their Deck in any order from your hand, field, Graveyard, and banished monsters. Special Summon 1 Fusion Monster that used a 'HERO' monster as Fusion Material from your Extra Deck, ignoring its Summoning conditions. If 'Elemental HERO Neos' is returned to the Deck, neither player can return any monster Special Summoned by this effect to their Extra Deck."

"I will send the [Elemental HERO Flamewing Man] from my Graveyard and the [Elemental HERO Neos] from the field back to my Deck as materials for a special Fusion Summon!"

"...Beloved contact! Appear! [Elemental Heroes: Shining Neo-Cosmic Knight]!!!"

A warm, pure white light emerged from the merging vortex.

Similar to the [Elemental Hero - Flash Flame Winged Man], white iron wings spread out and were embedded behind the hero.

Within this space fortress where massive warships are docked, Jaden Yuki's past and present ace monster forms intersect and merge into one, becoming a completely new being.

This new hero, who possesses the physical characteristics of both a Flame Winged Man and a Neo-Universe, appears in a radiant display. He raises the blade on his arm, slicing through the despair that permeates the surroundings and revealing the dawn of victory to everyone.
