Yu-Gi-Oh! The Pitfall Hero

"Based on this card's effect, I destroy the [Cloud Monster - Eye of the Typhoon] on my field, and both players take damage equal to the destroyed monster's ATK!"

Manjoume: "...!!!"

Just as Manjoume had predicted, Amon's last move was a trap card that could damage both sides simultaneously.

During the entrance exam, Misawa Daichi defeated the examiner with the effect of this card, thus gaining the qualification to advance to the Apollo Yellow Dormitory.

When he saw him activate the card "Manjoume," he snorted disdainfully, thinking he could have done better. He thought his strength was just so-so.

Now, in the blink of an eye, Manjoume has also dramatically met his fate of being dominated by the [Destruction Wheel].

Up to 6000 points of effect damage...

Even if he had 4000 health points at full strength, let alone his current health of only 2800, he still wouldn't be able to withstand the damage from this attack.

“【Destruction Wheel】, I see… No wonder Amon didn’t show any despair even after the attack was blocked…”

Looking at the trap card flipped open in front of Amon, Yusei's face suddenly showed a look of realization: "So, he had been prepared to die trying all along..."

"Hmm, given that Amon is capable of making that kind of desperate attack, I wouldn't be surprised if he pulled out a card like this..."

"You really can't tell from his appearance, this guy... is he really this crazy?"

Asuka and Saotome Rei both noticed Amon's last resort.

After understanding Amon's plan, the two girls simultaneously showed a wary expression towards this scheming guy.

This young master of the Gallamy Corporation is a complete lunatic!

"...Manjoume?!"

"Amon Garlem... what a formidable fellow!"

Realizing the outcome of the duel, Jaden Yuki and John reacted differently at this moment.

At the same time, the eye of the storm, the Giant on the field, exploded under the effect of the trap card, turning into a huge shockwave that blasted Amon and Manjou off the glass platforms they were standing on, causing them to fall into the lake below.

(Manjoume Lightning LP: 2800→0)

(Amon Garham LP: 1600→0)

"Are you alright, Manjoume?"

"...It's so noisy! I just suddenly wanted to go swimming!"

Seeing that the duel had ended in a draw, Jaden Yuki, who had walked to the lakeside, asked Manjoume with concern.

Feeling somewhat embarrassed, Wan Zhangmu twitched his lips and stubbornly expressed his rebellious sentiments.

Then, he struggled to swim to the shore by paddling with all four limbs.

Although he didn't win the duel against Amon Garlem, he didn't lose either!

Next time, this will never happen again!

"...A draw? Ha."

On the other side, Amon also quickly left the water and came ashore.

At that moment, he was trying to squeeze the water out of his clothes.

At that moment, a light suddenly flashed from the energy absorption device on his arm, completely absorbing the energy generated in his duel, along with his own physical strength.

"Although the energy was still absorbed, it wasn't at a level that could take a life... It seems my plan has succeeded..."

Feeling as if his body had been hollowed out in an instant, Amon involuntarily knelt down, holding his head.

Opposite him, Manjoume, whose energy had also been drained, lost consciousness and collapsed face-first onto the ground in front of him...

693 Ultimate Jewel God, and Super Fusion

As the duel ended, Amon and Manjoume collapsed uncontrollably because their energy was absorbed by the devices worn on their arms.

The students who were dueling in the banquet hall of the Obelisk Blue dormitory also collapsed one after another due to exhaustion.

"Gulp... So many students have collapsed?"

"While we were watching the duel between Manjoume and Amon, this actually happened...?!"

"So that device really is faulty? Anyone who engages in a duel while wearing that thing will face this situation!"

As the two fell one after the other, Yusei and the others who were watching the match quickly contacted the teachers at Duel Academy and asked them to come and handle the situation.

Back in the hall, they noticed that a large number of students had collapsed.

Upon hearing the news of the students fainting one after another, Kronos from the Obelisk Blue dormitory, Coach Napoleon, Professor Kabayama from the Sun God Yellow dormitory, Ms. Ayukawa from the girls' dormitory, and some other teachers contacted the rescue team and rushed over.

Under such circumstances, it was impossible for Principal Samejima, the bald-headed headmaster of the Duel Academy, to remain aloof from the world.

He was in a great hurry and rushed here almost immediately.

"After the dis-duel, so many students have collapsed, and Professor Cobra... is he no longer going to pretend?"

"...Gulp! All of this is Principal Samejima's fault. If he hadn't let the wolf in, the students wouldn't have received such treatment!!"

"That's right! It's all the principal's fault! That bald guy who won't listen to anyone... he's practically senile!"

"The previous acting principal was so much better! She was beautiful and reliable, practically the perfect principal! Putting everything else aside, at least back then, there was no way that Prince Zhai, who controlled a large number of students, could have done something so outrageous under her nose!"

Despite the sweating principal standing right next to them, the teachers and students who had long held opinions about his series of foolish actions still made no attempt to hide their true thoughts.

If it weren't for his leniency, how could Professor Cobra have had the authority to do such a thing, affecting so many students?

Although the students did not lose their lives, but were in a weak and unconscious state, who can guarantee their safety in the long run?

Principal Samejima, what are you planning to do?

How do you plan to bear the consequences of this incident?

What is your crime?!

"How...how could this happen? Why would that guy, Professor Cobra, do such a thing?"

With so many students falling in the duel, the incident, which could no longer be concealed, unsurprisingly caused a huge uproar throughout the school.

Upon hearing of this incident on the main island, President Kaiba was filled with thunderous fury after learning the whole story!

Faced with a torrent of protests and accusations, Principal Samejima, who had engaged in such an act that could be described as inviting trouble, had no choice but to apologize, bear the consequences, resign, and return to his "Electronic Flow" dojo, becoming his Samejima Master again...

Having previously served as the interim principal and possessing experience in this area, Tengu Yui once again came to Duel Academy at President Kaiba's request, tasked with resolving this incident, and officially assumed the position of principal.

After learning the whole story through Yusei's explanation, the first order Yui gave after taking office as the principal of Duel Academy was to cancel Professor Cobra's temporary teaching position and the dis-duel tournament he was organizing.

Then, with the help of Haima Company staff, the devices on the students' arms were removed one by one, restoring them to their previous state.

From then on, Professor Cobra completely lost the means to use his students as tools to extract energy.

In any case, he can no longer use this method to recklessly toy with the lives of students or use them as leverage to make demands.

"Then, the next task is to deal with Professor Cobra himself."

"Regarding this, please rest assured and leave it to us!"

"That's right, Headmaster! With us in charge, Professor Cobra is finished!"

Inside the principal's office, they arrived once again. Tengu Yui, who had shouldered the heavy responsibility in this crisis, gathered here a group of duelists with formidable strength, including Yusei, Yuki Jaden, Asuka, Saotome Rei, and John.

Addressing the group of outstanding young duelists before her, especially Yusei, with whom she had a close relationship, Amamiya Yui explained the background and then requested their assistance.

After realizing the seriousness of the problem, Yusei and his friends took on the task without delay and planned to form a team and head towards Professor Cobra's hideout after making full preparations.

After extracting so much energy and affecting so many students, Professor Cobra, knowing he couldn't explain the anomaly, simply went into "retreat mode," disappearing from everyone's sight and hiding inside the research institute.

During the period when the plan was being carried out, Professor Cobra had already transformed the research institute into his private fortress, setting up a large number of traps and mechanisms inside.

If nothing unexpected happens, Professor Cobra, the mastermind behind this incident, has already gained enough power to carry out his plan.

Whatever he intends to do with this energy, now is a critical moment that is imminent.

Miss Jie, who has located Professor Cobra through the intelligence network of the Kaiba Group, also plans to take advantage of the time to drag Professor Cobra out of his hiding place and end this riot completely.

In this state, Kenzan, Jim, Manjoume, and Amon, among other combatants, fell into a coma one after another.

O'Brien, who came to investigate the research institute based on the information found in the office, was also temporarily trapped in a trap and lost his freedom because he accidentally triggered a mechanism.

Having just taken over as principal, she had to stay behind with the teachers and professors to oversee the overall situation.

Therefore, Yusei and his group are among the most powerful fighters in the Duel Academy. It is perfectly reasonable for these elite individuals to carry out the operation against Professor Cobra.

"...By the way, John, before I came here, Chairman Pegasus asked me to give this to you."

"Hmm? President Pegasus?"

Gazing at the group of duelists before her, Miss Yui suddenly remembered something, beckoned John over, and personally handed him a card box-like object: "What he said is that inside are the new [Sapphire Beast] cards. It seems that Chairman Pegasus discovered the Rainbow Dragon's Tablet and, with the help of Professor Tubein, the authority on physics, sealed the power within the tablet into the cards."

"Oh?! I see! So the new Gemmon card has finally arrived? It's something I promised Pegasus!"

John, his face beaming with excitement, took the card box from Miss Jie's hand and immediately took out the cards.

The crowd, equally curious about this new power, quickly gathered around to appreciate the new [Jade Beast] cards with him.

"【Ultimate Jewel God Rainbow Dragon】, 【Ultimate Jewel God Rainbow Bridge Dragon】, 【Ultimate Jewel God Rainbow Dragon - Beyond】... These three are undoubtedly Rainbow Dragon, representing its three different forms..."

"【The Guide to Jewel】 and 【The Transcender of Jewel】, these two pendulum cards have the effects of granting resistance, searching, and increasing attack power. They are used to coordinate with 【Jewel Beast】..."

"Next up are [Bridge of the Heart], [Jewel Awakening], [Golden Jade Strip], [Rainbow Path], [Miracle of the Jewel], [Gathering of the Jewel], [Ultimate Jewel Array]... these are the magic trap cards..."

"Tsk tsk tsk..."

Looking at the effects of these subsequent [Jewel Beast] Spell & Trap Cards, Yusei couldn't help but let out a "tsk tsk" of admiration.

These effects, if applied to any mainstream deck, would instantly elevate it to a super-mainstream level.

However, when it comes to the [Jade Beast]... well, it can only be described as a major buff.

"Principal, John got a new card? What about us?"

Seeing John receive an epic buff, feeling the pressure, he pointed to his own Jaden Yuki with an expectant look and asked Yui-san this question.

"Of course, I have prepared special new cards for each of you."
