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

"However...right now, you probably don't have any chance left, Mr. Yufeng..."

"..."

Soon, after shaking his head with a slight smile, the blue-haired boy, Marufuji Ryo, immediately reached his finger onto his silver-white duel disk and made a card-drawing motion:

"Then I won't stand on ceremony, senior—it's my turn, draw a card!"

In an instant, as a card entered his hand, a smile immediately appeared on Marufuji Ryo's face:

"It seems that fate has indeed chosen me as the successor of the [Electronic School], Senior Yufeng."

Soon after placing his newly drawn card face-down in the back row, Marufuji Ryo immediately entered his battle phase:

"Then my [Chimera Fortress Dragon] attacks your face-up Defense Position [Chimera Fortress Dragon]!"

"Although I can't take you down in one blow, this is a blow to uphold the dignity of the [Tire Dragon]!"

In that instant, under the powerful declaration of attack, the crimson metallic dragon, with its body composed of numerous [fortresses], immediately unleashed a surge of immense electrical power, shooting towards Youfeng's field:

With a "bang," Su Ri'an, being a [Tire Dragon] with zero defense, was immediately destroyed by battle and sent to the graveyard.

Marufuji Ryo then ended his turn directly.

...

"Then, at the very moment this turn changes, my [Future Fusion] will activate its effect... Special Summoning one of the [Chimera Ender Dragon] cards I showed earlier to the field via Fusion Summon..."

"And because the moment it appears, it will destroy my [Future Fusion], and immediately destroy my [Chimera End Dragon] in the front row as well."

In the blink of an eye, the words "Preparation Phase" flashed on the silver-white Duel Disk worn by Yu Feng, and Yu Feng's "Continuous Spell" card immediately surged with powerful "Fusion" power. The power of the Machine-Type monster that had been chosen as material in the previous turn was instantly combined into a powerful "Chimera Fusion Overload Dragon".

But just like his calm voice as he explained, at that very moment, right beneath the feet of the grand hall where You Feng stood, a massive electric current surged, followed by another loud "bang."

At that moment, Youfeng's field was completely cleared, and his hand was also empty.

...

"In that case, there's absolutely no way out, Mr. Yufeng..."

"Next, we can only pin our hopes on this card draw... If we can draw Overload Fusion, which uses graveyard resources as Fusion Material, maybe we can turn the tide!"

Soon, in the auditorium, the black-haired Manjou Jun, with a slightly tense yet excited expression, clenched his fist.

Jaden Yuki nodded in agreement, saying:

"That's absolutely right..."

"However—Mr. Youfeng's deck has thus been compressed to an extremely streamlined level. If all the remaining cards are [Graveyard Fusion] type spell cards, then the probability is magnified infinitely..."

Soon, Jaden Yuki, equally serious, turned his gaze to the few main deck resources in Yuuki's silver-white Duel Disk.

On the contrary, Asuka Tenjouin, who had been somewhat silent, immediately turned her gaze to the mysterious face-down card that Ryo Marufuji had placed on the field at that moment:

"But... is it really okay? That card... knowing Marufuji's personality, he wouldn't just put a card down so easily for no reason..."

...

At that very moment, as Tenjouin Asuka hesitated slightly, Marufuji Ryo, who was on the field, immediately reached for the backrow card he had set face-down in the previous turn, the instant Yuuki entered the draw phase from the [Preparation Phase].

“Wait, Mr. Yufeng… Although this means I can’t demonstrate the ultimate technique of [Cyber ​​Dragon]—[Cyber ​​Termination Dragon]—in front of you, but…”

"At this very moment, I will immediately open and activate a [Continuous Trap] card, [Fusion Forbidden Zone]."

In an instant, a scene depicting a large net completely isolating the power from fusion appeared in the auditorium.

At that moment, You Feng's face also darkened.

Under everyone's watchful eyes, the crowd immediately realized what was happening and stared in astonishment at Marufuji Ryo who had performed this action.

At this moment, the blue-haired boy was still smiling and somewhat proudly introducing the effect of the card he had on the field:

"The effect of this [Fusion Forbidden Area] is very simple: as long as it exists on the field, neither player can perform a [Fusion Summon]..."

"Although Mr. Youfeng, you only have one more card draw phase left, I dare not gamble with your luck against the world champion's mastery of the deck."

"Therefore, this will be my final blockade against you!"

...

Soon, the tension that had been lingering on his face slowly transformed into complete confidence, and at this moment, a hint of absolute confidence in victory flashed in Marufuji Ryo's gray eyes.

Everyone sighed in dismay.

"Even though Mr. Yuuka has gone to such lengths, I never expected that Senior Marufuji would still manage to break through his desperate situation..."

"Playing this card at this moment is practically a guaranteed kill, isn't it?!"

"..."

Soon, amidst the gasps of surprise from the crowd, even Manjou Jun, who was particularly attentive to this duel, clenched his fist slightly and frowned:

"So... the chance to defeat Senior Yuuka... was taken away by Senior Marufuji...?"

...

At this moment, in stark contrast to the helplessness and resentment on Manjou's face, Yuki Jaden, sporting a "jellyfish-head" hairstyle, immediately crossed his arms and sighed in admiration:

"Hmm... Marufuji-senpai... is indeed a very strong opponent..."

"It seems there's another formidable opponent entering the Duel Academy!"

"..."

While Jaden Yuki cares about winning duels, he values ​​the process of the duel even more and sees "defeat" as a way to improve himself.

Therefore, at this moment, there was no excessive frustration on Youfeng's "imminent defeat".

"Well done, Ryo... Come and show Mr. Yufeng that our Duel Academy's dueling philosophy is just as powerful!"

At this moment, Professor Chronos, who was still holding a grudge against You Feng for his previous direct attack, revealed a smug smile, quite invigorated.

...

At that very moment, Youfeng immediately shook his head:

"Caesar...it seems you do indeed possess a strong understanding of the [Cyber ​​Style] and my dueling style..."

"Yes, generally speaking, I would use the [Future Fusion] + [Overload Fusion] combo to create a [Chimera Overload Dragon] with over 10,000 attack power..."

"But as a precaution, I kept one Machine-Type monster card in the deck; it wasn't used as material for [Chimera Overload Dragon] and sent to the Graveyard by [Future Fusion]..."

At this point, a smile immediately appeared on Yufeng's lips, and his eyes shone brightly as he looked at Marufuji Ryo, who was momentarily taken aback:

"Admittedly... in my deck, there's currently only one card that can defeat you..."

"And with 5 cards left in my deck, my chances of winning this time are only 20%..."

"However, due to the synergy between me and the [Cyber ​​Flow] deck, this probability will be amplified to 100%! Because—"

"For duelists, everything is inevitable!"

...

Soon, along with Youfeng's excited voice, a surge of excitement and anticipation flashed in everyone's eyes:

"Wow! Mr. Youfeng has another trick up his sleeve?!"

But in that instant, faced with the expectant voices of the crowd, "Jellyfish Head" Jaden Yuki, whose face was also full of surprise, quickly shook his head helplessly:

"But even so, the most crucial point is that Senior Yuuka can only draw one card. Even if he removes the opponent's [Fusion Forbidden Area], or even completely destroys Senior Marufuji's field... he still wouldn't be able to win directly..."

At the very moment he murmured those words, Jaden Yuki instantly realized something and looked up in surprise, staring once more at Yuuki's silver-white Duel Disk:

"Could it be that Mr. Youfeng is going to turn the tide with a regular [Effect] monster?!"

...

And very quickly, at this very moment, everyone present, including Seto Kaiba who was "monitoring" the match, stared intently at Yuuki's finger, marveling at the method by which Yuuki had won.

Youfeng could only perform his card-drawing action immediately after the game was completed:

"My turn! Flash draw!"

Soon, accompanied by a surge of electricity flowing from Youfeng's fingertips, a uniquely designed Machine-type [Electron] monster card was instantly drawn into Youfeng's hand:

"YA-DA-ZE!"

After an excited exclamation, Youfeng immediately played the card onto the field:

"At this moment, I will use the special effect of this card directly: This card cannot be Normal Summoned. It can only be Special Summoned by banishing all Machine-Type and LIGHT monsters from your Graveyard and face-up monsters on your field."

"Since my deck only contains 5 Cyberse monster cards, I can banish a total of 25 cards from my graveyard that meet the requirements of this card and Special Summon them to the field in face-up Attack Position!"

In an instant, a powerful monster card with a star rating of 10 was also flashed and sent into the field by Yufeng.

In the grand hall that had been temporarily used as a duel arena, a huge electric roar immediately appeared in front of Marufuji Ryo's [Chimera Fortress Dragon] with 4000 attack power.

The next second, under this immense power, a gigantic, silver-white dragon-headed monster appeared before Youfeng. Around this massive dragon head, several smaller [Electronic Dragon] heads, resembling Medusa's snake hair, swayed.

[Electronic Terminal]

[Attribute: light]

[Race: Mechanical]

[Attack power:? 】

【Defense:?】

"What...what is this thing?!"

Soon, Wan Zhangmu Jun, who was the first to react, exclaimed in surprise with a bewildered expression and furrowed brows.

This uniquely shaped, bizarre monster also experienced an instantaneous surge in attack power:

[Attack power:? →12500]
