I'm in Yu-Gi-Oh!, but I'm also in Machine Ascension.

Amidst a collective gasp of surprise, even Katsuya Jonouchi's expression turned somewhat tense this time:

"I just remembered... Youfeng said that if using [Power Welding] can double the attack power... wouldn't that mean it could directly surpass the [Dark Dragon] in the arena?"

...

Soon, amidst Jonouchi Katsuya's expression of "something terrible is about to happen," after the [Fusion] was completed, the [Power Welding] in the magic trap area on the field quickly flashed and activated its effect:

[Armored Prison Dragon-Electronic Dark Dragon]

[Attack power: 2000→4000]

[Defense: 2000]

At the same time, You Feng, his eyes tightly furrowed, immediately clenched his fists, preparing himself to bear this psychological burden, but the next second—

"Bang~"

With a resounding thud of a heartbeat, the pain Youfeng was enduring was instantly relieved, and a faint electric current even seemed to flow through his body...

"Um?!"

After letting out a puzzled hum, Youfeng immediately saw the [Cyber ​​Dragon] card in his hand flashing with light.

"I see... Thank you... old friend..."

...

Then, seeing that Yuufu's [Armored Dragon - Cyber ​​Dark Dragon] had indeed increased its attack power to a level surpassing his own, Jonouchi was also shocked, but quickly rubbed his palms together vigorously:

"Although Yuuki, you're very strong... it seems I can still handle you... Next, all I need to do is draw a [Time Magician] card and blow up your monster... The dice are also a good option..."

"Hmph... Later, I'll find an opportunity to revive the [Red-Eyes Black Dragon] in the graveyard, and then I can win directly..."

"..."

Meanwhile, the "yellow-haired boy" looked at the high-star monster in the arena with a defiant expression, as if he were plotting something.

Yugi Muto and Mai Kongzak, sitting in the audience, shook their heads.

"If you had actually withstood it, Youfeng should have died from the backlash of [Power Welding] without you even needing to do anything further..."

"In other words, the moment Youfeng plays this [Power Weld], he must secure victory within this turn."

As the two spoke in unison, analyzing the situation, the short-haired girl, Masaki Kyoko, frowned slightly as she sized up Yuuki.

"But... Yuuka, how are you going to win? Even if your attack power doubles, you can only deal 800 damage to Jonouchi-kun..."

...

At the same instant, Seto Kaiba, who was watching the match on the monitor, was slightly impressed that this charismatic young man dared to use [Power Welding] to force himself into a "dead end." He then shook his head slightly and looked at Yuuki with great curiosity.

"Yeah, Yufeng, how exactly are you going to win...?"

...

But in that very instant!

You Feng smiled slightly at the crowd, who were finding the situation increasingly difficult to assess.

"Yes, my current attack power is indeed insufficient to directly eliminate you along with your [Dark Dragon] in the front row..."

"But—if you add your [Red-Eyes Black Dragon], the power will be enough!"

At this moment, as You Feng spoke, the corners of his mouth turned up slightly as he looked at the "yellow-haired boy" in front of him.

"Youfeng, what do you mean by this... Don't joke like that..."

Faced with Yuufu's "open threat," Jonouchi immediately protected his Duel Disk with both hands...

"It's too late, Nokia~"

Accompanied by the soft, melodious voice of the wind, he pointed a finger directly at the [Armored Dragon - Electronic Dark Dragon] he had just fused into in the arena, activating its effect:

"Then activate the effect of [Armored Dragon - Cyber ​​Dark Dragon]: If this card is Special Summoned, you can activate this effect. Equip 1 Dragon-Type monster or Machine-Type monster from your Graveyard to this card as an Equip Card."

"Furthermore, based on the effect of [Cyber ​​Dark World]: when a [Cyber ​​Dark] monster is successfully Summoned/Special Summoned, its effect can be activated to equip a monster from your own Graveyard, and it can also be used to equip a monster from your opponent's Graveyard instead."

"Hey Nokia, I'll just bring you that [Red-Eyes Black Dragon] from your graveyard!"

[Armored Prison Dragon-Electronic Dark Dragon]

[Attack power: 4000→6400! ]

[Defense: 2000]

"roar~"

Accompanied by an electronic roar, Yufeng looked at Jonouchi Katsuya, whose face was contorted with exaggerated facial expressions, and smiled with amusement:

"Look, this is enough for me to kill you!"

A single shot dealing 40.6400 attack power—is this the power of the corrupted electronic dragon?!

Soon, witnessing the Red-Eyes Black Dragon, which was being used as fusion material for the Dark Dragon in its own graveyard, being directly pushed into the opponent's field by Yufeng's Armored Dragon - Cyber ​​Dark Dragon.

Amidst the shocked expressions on everyone's faces, "Yellow-haired boy" Katsuya Jonouchi himself was instantly thrown into a state of utter disbelief and disbelief.

"Ahhhhh!@＃￥%……!"

"Youfeng, what are you doing? Give me back my [Black Dragon]..."

At that instant, both Yugi Muto with his "starfish head" hairstyle and the hot lady Mai Kongzak instinctively protected their decks with strange expressions.

"It seems that Yuufu can directly boost the attack power of monsters that are [Equipment Spell] cards...but—"

"Choosing a partner from someone's grave is just too shameless!"

"..."

After a burst of heartfelt complaints, Yugi Muto and Mai Kujaku immediately exclaimed, "Thank goodness I'm not a dragon!"

...

But at this very moment, Seto Kaiba, the president's veteran dragon cancer patient who was watching the match on the monitor, clearly felt his blood pressure rise as he watched the scene unfold before him:

"...They actually managed to defeat the dragon-type monsters..."

"I actually tried to attribute this thing to the dragon race before..."

"Now it seems you Mech players are truly wicked, all you do are minotaurs and tire-rolling nonsense—this isn't a fair fight at all..."

But soon, after letting out a low growl of displeasure, and seeing that the attack power of [Armored Dragon - Cyber ​​Dark Dragon] on the field had soared to an incomprehensible 6000 points, Seto Kaiba immediately turned off the monitor in front of him:

"However... an attack strength of six thousand points... has indeed completely exceeded my expectations..."

"To fight this guy, it seems I'll have to use Kamida's power directly..."

...

And very soon, at this very moment, facing the "distorted" faces of the Minotaur city, who even demanded that Youfeng return the monster to him.

Youfeng immediately smiled and nodded:

"Well~ Nokia, you asked for this yourself, so don't blame me~"

"Come on, at this very moment, I will transform your [Red-Eyes Black Dragon] into my [Armored Dragon - Cyber ​​Dark Dragon]'s powerful projectiles and attack!"

"Cyberdarkness-Dragon! Attack the opponent's [Dark Dragon]!"

In an instant, to everyone's astonishment, the [Red-Eyes Black Dragon] that had been dragged from the cemetery within the city let out a hesitant roar, then reluctantly transformed into a stream of power, which was channeled into the cannon on the back of the [Armored Dragon - Cyber ​​Dark Dragon] in the Wind Arena. The attack command was then issued directly to the massive dark dragon in the opponent's arena:

"fire!"

Soon, at Youfeng's command, the [Armored Dragon - Cyber ​​Dark Dragon] instantly lunged forward with its entire dark metallic body, aiming the cannons on its back at its opponent—

After a loud "bang".

The fiery power of the [Red-Eyes Black Dragon] instantly surged forth, directly shattering the [Dark Demon Dragon] with 3200 attack power in Jonouchi Katsuya's arena. The overflowing 3200 points of fire damage continued to shoot backward, aiming at the panicked Jonouchi Katsuya.

"Ughhhhh~"

With a panicked scream, the "yellow-haired boy" was also knocked to the ground with a heavy blow.

[Jouchi Katsuya: 2400 → 0! 】

...

The next second, everyone immediately smelled a burnt smell.

"elder brother!"

"Jonouchi-kun, are you alright?!"

"Norwegian!"

Soon, amidst the worried voices of the crowd, Katsuya Jonouchi, who had been knocked down and lying sprawled on the lawn, slowly sat up, his face filled with resentment.

"What... Even though the effects are different, you still managed to bombard me in the end... and the cannonball was even my own card..."

"This feeling is truly unbearable..."

"Youfeng, can I understand it this way: the corrupted [Electronic Dragon] is roughly equivalent to the [Catapult Turtle]!"

"..."

[Electronic Dragon]: Mortal, are you still going to curse me?

...

Ultimately, the duel ended with Youfeng's undisputed victory through a counterattack and a lock-on kill.

Everyone patted Jonouchi on the shoulder to comfort him:

Yugi Muto: "If the opponent's strength reaches that level, then Jonouchi-kun is just an ordinary duelist, so losing once isn't a big deal..."

—Jounouchi: ? ? ? Are you saying I'm just a mortal?!

Mai Kongjaku: "It seems there's still a big gap between me and a true duelist~ Although this was expected..."

—Jounouchi: Thank you... If you don't know how to comfort someone, you don't have to say anything...

Kyoko Masaki: "Even Tamashi got taken by a cow? So pitiful... *sigh*..."

——Jouchi: ....

Soon, amidst the cacophony of "comfort" from the crowd, the "yellow-haired boy's" face grew increasingly dark, and he finally clenched his fists.
