Yu-Gi-Oh! The Pitfall Hero

Zero combat damage not only means that Principal Samejima and Hell Caesar will not be harmed, but also that the two monsters engaged in battle will not be destroyed by each other's attacks.

After letting out a terrifying roar, a layer of golden light appeared on the surface of the [Electronic Ogre]'s solid, demon-like body.

Protected by its companion's effect, the Cyber ​​Ogre, which remained unharmed despite being bathed in the red flames of Cyber ​​Dragon Nova, absorbed the base attributes of Cyber ​​Dragon Nova after the battle, granting itself a massive 2100-point boost to its attack power!

(【Electronic Ogre】Attack Power: 1900→4000)

"Attack power of 4000?! Hmph! As expected of a teachers' college... So things weren't going to go so smoothly after all?"

Both attacks were thwarted by Principal Samejima. Hell Caesar smiled and wisely ended his battle.

He raised his arm and activated the effect of the monster in front of him: "Entering Main Phase 2, I activate the first effect of [Cyber ​​Dragon Nova], remove one Xyz Material from this card, and Special Summon one [Cyber ​​Dragon] from my Graveyard!"

Around the body of [Electronic Dragon Nova] are two golden orbs of light that resemble satellites.

After swallowing one of the orbs of light with its massive steel maw, Cyber ​​Dragon Nova flicked its tail and opened a portal to the graveyard beside it, pulling a Cyber ​​Dragon back to its field from Hell Caesar's graveyard.

After placing one of his cards in the back row, Hell Caesar calmly ended his turn: "Ambush a card, end of turn."

"Ryo! Remember the feelings you had when you trained here, caring for your opponents and your cards!" With his palm placed on the deck, Principal Samejima abruptly drew a new card: "My turn, draw!"

"At this very moment, I reveal the face-down card in my back row!" Just as Principal Samejima was preparing after drawing his card, Hell Caesar flipped over the card he had face-down the previous turn: "--Trap Card [Attack Reflector] activated! Based on this card's effect, I Tribute [Cyber ​​Dragon] on my field to the Graveyard, and then Special Summon [Cyber ​​Barrier Dragon] from my hand or Deck!"

"……Varied?!"

"Come out of my deck! I Special Summon—[Cyber ​​Barrier Dragon] (ATK: 800) in Attack Position!"

With Hell Caesar's shout, the Cyber ​​Dragon, which had been revived by the effect of Cyber ​​Dragon Nova, was once again enveloped in white light.

After the light faded, the monster that appeared in front of him transformed into a new electronic dragon with a reflective device on its neck and a body as solid as an iron wall, living up to its name, Barrier.

"When [Electronic Barrier Dragon] is in attack position, it can negate one of the opponent's attacks once per turn..."

Glancing at Principal Samejima's [Cyber ​​Ogre] with an attack power of 4000, Hell Caesar slowly curled the corners of his mouth: "In this way, you will be unable to use [Cyber ​​Ogre] to launch an attack and cause damage to me."

"...In this round, the attack of the [Electronic Ogre] with an attack power of 4000 was sealed, right?"

With a slight frown, Principal Samejima, whose actions had been anticipated, immediately hid a card from his hand in the back row: "Hid a card, end turn!"

Even if the [Electronic Ogre] launches an attack, it will be nullified by the effect of the [Electronic Barrier Dragon].

Instead of doing this futile work, we should prepare for the situation ahead.

Thinking about all this, Principal Samejima did not launch another attack, but instead ended his turn with a card.

"My turn, draw a card!"

Seeing the situation developing as he had imagined, Hell Caesar shrugged and activated the effect of the monster in front of him again: "[Cyber ​​Dragon Nova] effect activated! Remove 1 Xyz Material from this card and revive a [Cyber ​​Dragon] monster in my Graveyard!"

"Reappear before me once more, [Cyber ​​Dragon]!"

It roared to the sky, and after absorbing another supermaterial, a powerful pressure erupted from the red power reactor of [Electronic Dragon Nova].

Swinging its mechanical tail, it broke through the shackles of space and forcibly pulled the [Electronic Dragon] back from the graveyard.

"Another resurrection? But even so, Ryo! Your monster's attack power is still insufficient to contend with the [Cyber ​​Ogre]!"

Looking at the third [Electronic Ogre] card in his hand, Principal Samejima revealed a faint smile.

Even if the opponent summons an even stronger monster, and even if he is attacked again, he can still use the same trick to block the opponent's offensive and further enhance the attributes of the [Cyber ​​Ogre].

Destroying this monster won't be so easy!

"Heh...is that really true?"

Extending his arm, Hell Caesar continued, "I Normal Summon [Cyber ​​Dragon Core] in Attack Position and activate its effect to search for one [Cyber] or [Cyber ​​Tech] Spell/Trap Card from my Deck... I choose to search for the Trap Card [Cyber ​​Revolution]."

"...Next, I activate the second effect of [Cyber ​​Dragon Nova]: Once per turn, you can banish 1 'Cyber ​​Dragon' from your hand or face-up monsters on the field. This card gains 2100 ATK until the End Phase. This effect can also be activated during your opponent's turn."

"As long as the card name of [Cyber ​​Dragon Core] exists on the field or in the Graveyard, it can be used as [Cyber ​​Dragon]. I banish it to activate the effect of [Cyber ​​Dragon Nova], increasing its ATK by 2100!"

(【Electronic Dragon - Nova】 Attack Power: 2100→4200)

He absorbed the [Electronic Dragon Core] into his body in one go, expanded his wings, unfolded his body into the [Electronic Dragon Nova], and a crimson light appeared on the surface of his body.

After breaking through the limitations and entering berserk mode, the attack power of [Electronic Dragon Nova] also surged to an extremely terrifying 4200 points!

Now it possesses the ability to kill gods, enough to crush a Colossus with an attack power of 4000!

"...Battle begins! I'm attacking the Cyber ​​Ogre (Attack Power: 4000) with [Cyber ​​Dragon Nova] (Attack Power: 4200)!"

Under the command of Hell Caesar, the rampaging [Cyber ​​Dragon Nova] spread its steel wings and pounced on the [Cyber ​​Ogre].

It looked like it was about to be shattered in one fell swoop.

570 The End and Eternity

"...Disappear! [Cyber ​​Dragon Nova] (Attack Power: 4200) Attack [Cyber ​​Ogre] (Attack Power: 4000)! Nova Blast!!!"

Waving his arms, Hell Caesar raised his rebellious fangs without hesitation towards his former mentor, unleashing the rampaging Xyz Monster to attack his monster.

If all goes well, this attack will successfully destroy the seemingly indestructible [Electronic Ogre], which appears to be welded to the field.

"Don't even think about it! At this very moment, I discard the [Cyber ​​Ogre] from my hand and activate its effect!"

Faced with the onslaught, Principal Samejima, who was already prepared, immediately took corresponding countermeasures.

Facing the crimson electronic dragon that charged towards him with overwhelming power, Principal Samejima's eyes narrowed. He discarded the third [Electronic Ogre] from his hand and activated its effect without hesitation.

"...The damage from this battle is negated, and after the battle, the attack power of [Cyber ​​Ogre] will increase by the attack power of [Cyber ​​Dragon Nova]!"

Having received his companion's message, the [Cyber ​​Ogre] immediately stretched out his thick arms and pounced straight at the oncoming red dragon—[Cyber ​​Dragon Nova].

Without any fancy moves, the two powerful beings, whose attack power had reached the realm of gods, clashed directly with each other like barbarians, without any strategy whatsoever.

As they moved, a tremendous explosion, seemingly shaking the entire universe, erupted within this arena of electronic flow.

Logically, given that the attack power of both sides is not equal, this battle should end with a narrow victory for [Cyber ​​Dragon Nova].

However, with the added buff from the same-named card, the Cyber ​​Ogre successfully withstood the onslaught of Cyber ​​Dragon Nova.

Whether the steel dragon with outstretched wings in front of it rammed into it with its body or hurled crimson flames from its mouth to continuously burn it, it could not destroy or eliminate the [Electronic Ogre], whose attributes were slightly lower than its own.

Realizing its attack was ineffective, [Cyber ​​Dragon Nova] could only shake its body and return to Hell Caesar's front with regret.

After that, the [Electronic Ogre], which had blocked the attack, once again broke through its limits in the fierce battle, stretching its body wildly and causing its attack to surge to an extremely terrifying 8200 points!

In this state, even the [Electronic Terminator Dragon], summoned by [Power Fusion] and possessing a doubled attack power of up to 8000 points, would no longer be its match.

(【Electronic Ogre】Attack Power: 4000→8200)

"Tsk... You have a third card with the same name, huh?"

Due to the effect of [Electronic Ogre], all damage in this battle will be nullified.

Therefore, even if the attack of [Cyber ​​Dragon Nova] is blocked by the opponent, it is not destroyed by counterattack damage as it would in a regular battle.

After clicking his tongue in slight impatience, Hell Caesar then placed his cards face down in the back row and waved his hand to end his turn: "Two cards are buried, turn over!"

On Hell Caesar's field, there is an [Cyber ​​Barrier Dragon] used to restrain the [Cyber ​​Ogre].

As long as this monster exists, which can negate the opponent's attack once per turn, then [Cyber ​​Ogre] cannot effectively damage Hell Caesar's side.

Even if its attack power doubled, it would be meaningless!

"My turn! My turn! Draw a card!"

After glancing at the Cyber ​​Barrier Dragon, Cyber ​​Dragon, and Cyber ​​Dragon Nova on the field of Hell Caesar, Principal Samejima then drew a new card from his deck.

He then activated the card immediately: "Spell Card [Pot of Greed] activated! Based on this card's effect, I draw two cards from my deck!"

A large green jar with Professor Chronos's handsome face printed on its surface appeared in front of Principal Samejima as the magic card was activated.

After he drew two cards from his deck, the green pot, having completed its mission, automatically disintegrated, turning into golden specks of light and disappearing from the field.

"Then, I'll activate my face card too!"

Seeing that Principal Samejima had added two more cards to his hand, Hell Caesar stretched out his arm and immediately opened a face-down card in the back row: "...Quick-Play Spell Card [Scrap Fusion] activated! According to this card's effect, I can banish the Fusion Materials of a Fusion Monster from my opponent's Graveyard to perform a Fusion Summon!"

"Using the effect of this spell card, Samejima Master, I banish the two [Cyber ​​Ogre] cards from your Graveyard!"

"...Fusion Summon! Come forth! [Cyber ​​Ogre 2]!!!"

-

Electronic Cannibal 2

(Mechanical/Earth/7-star/Attack: 2600/Defense: 1900)

Fusion/Effect: "Cyber ​​Ogre" + "Cyber ​​Ogre".

This monster can only be Fusion Summoned using the cards mentioned above. When this card attacks, its ATK increases by half the ATK of the monster attacked.

-

Its face was fierce, its body covered with golden barbs, and its overall color was sky blue.

The fusion monster appeared amidst the light, its powerful arms as firm as mountains, standing firmly on the floor.

The monster that appeared with the shout of Hell Caesar was a blue demon whose body was much larger than the [Electronic Ogre].

It only unleashes its true power during battle!

Principal Samejima: "...Ryo! You actually!"

As his fused monster appeared on his opponent's field, Principal Samejima's lips twitched involuntarily as he felt this subtle minotaur-like sensation.

In fact, for the Electronic Terminator Dragon, the Electronic Ogre 2 is like a nemesis.

This monster is also the trump card that Principal Samejima used to deal with Hell Caesar: the "Electronic Terminator Dragon".

However, at this moment, it has taken a different stance, standing on the opposite side...

"Hahahaha!!! If I become a demon, I'll definitely see a whole new horizon!"

"Samejima Master, your trump card monster... I'll take it!"

With a twisted expression on his face, Hell Caesar once again opened the face-down card in front of him: "It's not over yet... Next, the second face-down card will be activated!"

"...I activate the Trap Card 'Cyber ​​Revolution'! I Tribute 'Cyber ​​Dragon' on my field to activate this effect, Special Summon 1 Fusion Monster from my Extra Deck using 'Cyber ​​Dragon' monsters as Fusion Material. The monster Special Summoned by this effect cannot attack directly, and is destroyed during the End Phase of the next turn."

"...Special Summon directly from the Extra Deck?! Are you planning to summon [Cyber ​​Ender Dragon]?" Hearing Hell Caesar's explanation, Principal Samejima subconsciously took a half step back.
