My anime-style card deck is fine!

The host couldn't help but cheer, "Explosive! Fierce! Intense! As always, Aiko's duel is full of explosive excitement from the very beginning, with a relentless offensive that never stops!"

"...These students nowadays are really something else." The commentator was also taken aback by the display of talent.

However, his professionalism compelled him to continue his commentary: "Aiko's combo may seem risky, but it's actually a very powerful first-encounter kill!"

"A normal card master's mental strength is around 4000-8000! (Additional setting)"

"But Ike has five cannons on the field!"

"Yes, after the two cannons destroy Amon's two minions, the remaining three cannons can be aimed directly at Amon!" The host's eyes lit up: "A full 6000 points of damage! Can Amon withstand that!"

"And that's not all! The next round will be another unstoppable five-shot barrage!" The commentator's eyes gleamed with anticipation as he said.

"Now, let's see how Amon handles this!"

How to deal with it?

The enemy attacked too many times, a full five shots. Even the invincible [Defend] couldn't stop five attacks. Two Pipi could only withstand four shots at most, but the fifth shot would land straight on Amon!

But is there really no other way for Amon?

of course not!

"Pipi, use [Look at Me]." Amon took a step back and gave the order.

At the same time, the instant Amon gave the order, one of the Pipi suddenly pushed away its companion, who had just been all lovey-dovey, and ran away without hesitation, leaving the other Pipi dumbfounded.

But the trainer had already given the order, so the Clefairy had no choice but to suppress its anger and suddenly shine brightly.

"Pi! Pipi!"

Filled with resentment, this Pippi's presence suddenly surged!

It immediately attracted the attention of everyone around.

—Including those five cannon salutes!

The five cannons went completely out of control, turning their muzzles and unleashing a barrage of fire on the poor Pippi, overwhelming it with their excessive saturation.

Eiko used up all her cards to get that one-hit kill, and it all went to waste!

The powerful wind from the explosion howled.

The deafening roar echoed in my ears.

But after sacrificing Pipi No. 1, Amon and Pipi No. 2, who stood triumphantly at Amon's feet, watched the explosion up close, completely unaffected!

"Pipi~"

Pipi No. 2 prayed with a sorrowful expression.

Meanwhile, Amon laughed and said, "Being ineffective doesn't mean being unable to have an impact—no matter how powerful the firepower is, it's meaningless if it can't hit."

Chapter 117: Playing Landlord!

Amon escaped Aiko's concentrated fire thanks to Pipi's [Look at me], while Wushanyu remained hidden to the side without making a move.

second round!

The three sides clashed intensely and unexpectedly, and each side advanced to the second round in less than a minute. A duel is a clash of minds, and when the card masters who are dueling together have the thought of 'ending' in their minds at the same time, the round will naturally end.

Just like in martial arts, some moves only require a punch, a kick, or a sword, while others can unleash a shower of flowers in an instant.

It falls under the category of free evaluation of judgment.

"Round 2!"

Eiko raised her hand again, and the cannon behind her, which was actually a tank but called a salute, was reloaded. The black animals struggled as they were thrown in by the white animals, emitting squeaks and screams that no one paid attention to.

The cannons are being loaded on site!

Amon, however, was unconcerned: "Once per turn, summon one [Clefairy] to the field—I choose to Special Summon the Clefairy that was destroyed last turn!"

"At the same time, activate the effect of [Moon Goddess Stone of Tsukimiyama] again and add one skill card to your hand."

Pipi, who had just been wiped out by concentrated fire, ran out of the cemetery.

She immediately went to settle scores with her best friend upon her arrival!

"Pipi!" The heartless Pipi tried desperately to run away, but was still pinned to the ground by her best friend Pipi.

"what?!!"

Ai Ke and Wu Shan Yu, who were hiding nearby, were both shocked when they saw the resurrected Pipi.

Pippi's resurrection means that Amon has once again built an insurmountable wall of sighs!

And there are actually two walls!

This means they would have to launch three consecutive attacks before they could attack Amon, despite Pipi's "Look at me!" blocking their way!

Simple cannon salutes are no longer enough to deal with Amon!

The result of the last round undoubtedly confirmed this. For Eiko, who had no cards left in her hand, the existence of those two Clefairy cards was an insurmountable obstacle!

but……

"But it doesn't matter, they're just some pink minions! I'll wipe them all out after this turn!" Aiko suddenly drew a card from her deck: "Second turn, draw!"

"Trying to turn the tide with a lucky draw? That won't work!"

Amon held a card in his hand, his fingertips twitching slightly. The card flipped over, revealing the Blazing Roaring Tiger: "In the name of the Blazing Roaring Tiger, I command you to step down!"

"[High-Five Surprise Attack]!"

The figure of the red-muscular tiger appeared abruptly in front of Eiko the instant the command was given.

Just like the card masters in countless duels before, in Eiko's confusion and helplessness, the Blazing Roaring Tiger slapped the cards out of her hand.

The card was knocked away and fell to the ground, then was immediately slapped back into the deck.

Aiko didn't even have time to see what kind of card it was!

"[Five-Up Shot] effect: The card player's current action fails, and the card player gains one [Coward] counter - the card player holding this counter cannot perform a Normal Summon this turn!"

Amon's declaration came late.

It wasn't that he spoke too slowly, but that the Blazing Roaring Tiger spoke too fast!

With the unique card-drawing self-check effect of Pokémon combined with Fake Out, Incineroar can practically slap the opponent at the start of any turn.

This completely stunned Aiko.

"What the heck! How could it have such a bizarre effect?!"

Having lost her last card, Eiko was immediately alarmed—the action failed. Unlike effect destruction or resistance, this was an effect targeting the card master!

Conventional countermeasures are completely ineffective!

But now is not the time to think about these things. Amon's Blazing Roaring Tiger is right in front of us. If we can't find a way to deal with it, I'm afraid I'll lose after just a few slaps.

Although Eko had no followers, she was not without a fighting chance!

"Fire!" The loaded cannons whirred rapidly, their dark muzzles aimed directly at the Blazing Roaring Tiger.

But Amon issued the order earlier:

"Pipi, look at me!"

Having been prepared all along, Pipi grabbed her scumbag best friend Pipi by the back of the neck.

Just as it was about to kick out, it was grabbed by the backhand by the scumbag and thrown over the shoulder—the scumbag's eyes widened immediately, and then its body began to glow uncontrollably at Amon's command.

Look at me!

The dazzling light shone brightly once again!

The cannons instantly turned, uncontrollably focusing their fire on the poor Pippi once again, blasting it into dust.

"Skin~"

The remaining Pipi breathed a sigh of relief and gave a bright smile.

I didn't pay attention to the two kids' playful fighting.

—Anyway, as long as the skills can be used, that's fine.

"It's not over yet!" Amon immediately ordered the Fiery Roaring Tiger, "You have no minions left on the field to block—Fiery Roaring Tiger, attack the card master directly!"

"Roar!"

The Blazing Roaring Tiger showed absolutely no mercy and slapped her across the face.

“…No.”

A faint voice drifted over.

At the same time, the Blazing Roaring Tiger, which had just slapped Ike, suddenly missed its target this time.

Despite being torn apart by the claws, Eiko maintained her surprised expression, but then vanished like mist, leaving only Wushan Yu's voice echoing beside her.

"If you want to eliminate Eiko first, you'll have to ask me for my consent first, Amon."

Wu Shanyu's figure appeared and disappeared in the mist: "This is a three-way duel, so don't forget about me."

A thick fog blanketed the area.

Along with them came a horde of mist beasts.

However, unlike the previous duel at the gathering, the Mist Beasts that appeared this time were much more uniform in appearance. They were no longer a jumble of all sorts of animals, but rather a combination of dogs and wolves, densely clustered around Wushan Yu.

"Go on, my little darlings."

Wu Shanyu, holding a slender pipe in his hand, pointed it at Amon: "Tear him to pieces!"

"Woo~!"

The wolf pack, formed by the mist, suddenly howled.

Because it was made entirely of mist, the wolf pack, ignoring the collision volume, surged forward like ocean waves, rushing towards Amon.
