Yu-Gi-Oh!: This is the real duel!

[Attack/Defense: 1500/1200]

After summoning the monster, Jonouchi launched a direct attack without hesitation!

The two monsters charged out together, dealing heavy damage to Youche, which had no monsters on the field!

"Bang—Bang—"

"Beep beep beep beep——————"

LP: 7700→5100→3600

"Jounouchi's strength... is really much stronger than before..." Even Honda, a complete novice, could see some of the difference.

However, Kyoko was still worried for Jonouchi: "But Yuzuru still has over three thousand health points, while Jonouchi only has three hundred left! What if he makes a mistake and...?"

After launching his attack, Jonouchi, who seemed to have the upper hand, ended his turn with immense tension. His fists were clenched, and he kept repeating to himself, "As long as Yuzuru can't summon a monster in the next turn, I can win by launching another attack! But... Yuzuru hasn't summoned a monster for a whole turn. With his strength, it's impossible for him to have two consecutive turns without summoning a monster, right?"

As Jonouchi was pondering, a face-down card was flipped over from the field.

“Jonnori,” Yuche said, “During your end phase, I will activate this trap card—Trinity!”

"During your opponent's End Phase, if your opponent has more cards in their hand and on the field than you do, you can Special Summon three Normal Monsters from your Graveyard!!"

"Furthermore, banish this Trap Card from your Graveyard, then target three monster cards on your field with different original names, and set one Spell/Trap Card with all three original names listed in it from your hand or Deck to your field!!"

"What?! It's Disruption!!" Jonouchi immediately realized the card's function.

This demanding effect is almost exclusively available from the Disruption series!

With a wave of his hand, a colorful whirlwind rose from the graveyard, and three Disruption Monsters gathered on the battlefield. At the same time, a Disruption Triangle Hurricane flew out of the deck and set Yuche's back row.

“Now it’s my turn,” Youche said. “I activate the Spell Card – Heavenly Treasure Card! Both players will replenish their hands to six cards!”

"Since I have Disruption Yellow, Disruption Green, and Disruption Black on my field at the same time, I can activate the Spell Card I just set—Disruption Triangle Hurricane! Destroy all of my opponent's cards!!"

The three brothers, known for their disruptive antics, roared in unison and, as they soared into the sky, their bodies radiated dazzling colors! They formed a triangular formation, unleashing a chaotic vortex of wind that swept towards the battlefield within the city!

Disruption Huang: "Disruption!"

Disrupting Green: "Triangle!!"

Disruptive Black: "Hurricane!!!"

Sweating profusely, Jonouchi gritted his teeth: "Destroy all the cards... then I won't have any monsters to defend with..."

Looking at the cards in Yu Che's hand, Jonouchi immediately realized something very dangerous!

He remembered very clearly that Yu Che had previously used Monster Swap to take Dark Magician back into his hand!

In other words, after causing destruction with the Disruptive Triangle Hurricane, he can summon a Dark Mage to guide him in a direct attack!

With only 300 LP, there's no way I can withstand 2500 points of combat damage!!

Looking at his only face-down card, Jonouchi gritted his teeth and shouted, "While you activate Disruptive Triangle Hurricane, I'll activate the Trap Card - Divine Life Shield!"

"Discard one card from your hand, and all damage dealt by your opponent this turn is reduced to zero!!"

"boom--------------"

The colorful dazzling light swept away all the cards on the field inside the castle!

Looking at the protective shield composed of shimmering blue energy, You Che frowned slightly.

Looking at the Dark Magician in his hand, You Che pondered for a moment, and finally decided to keep it: "In that case, I have no choice but to give up the attack."

"Set two cards face down, end your turn!"

Jonouchi, who had narrowly escaped defeat, breathed a sigh of relief. At the start of his turn, with six cards in his hand, he began to think things through.

In the last round, he already had one foot on the edge of the cliff.

These six cards are his only remaining hope!

but……

How can he defeat Youche without having any trump cards?

Suddenly, Jonouchi looked at a certain magic card in his hand, as if he had thought of something.

and many more!

Perhaps he doesn't have an ace up his sleeve, but Youche still has a Dark Magician in his hand!

If we can use that card for our own benefit, then perhaps there will still be a chance for things to turn around!

"My turn!" After a quick thought, Jonouchi decided to launch a counterattack centered around an anime card. "Activate the Spell Card - Puzzle!!"

"When this card is activated, your opponent cannot determine the cards in my Graveyard!"

"You must guess the name of the monster at the bottom of my graveyard. If you guess correctly, that card will be banished!"

"And if I guess wrong, that card will be Special Summoned to my field!!"

"What the hell!" Honda couldn't help but exclaim. "How could a duelist of Yuzuru's caliber not know which monster it is!"

But Wang Yang suddenly said, "To be honest, I can't be sure which monster card is at the bottom of the graveyard."

"What?!" Honda was stunned, and Kyoko, who was standing next to him, was also dumbfounded.

Peacock Mai looked at the field and recalled briefly: "If I remember correctly, the first monster sent to the graveyard by Jonouchi was a sacrifice used to summon the Barbarian King."

"They are Earth Swordsman and Wyvern Warrior. Since both monsters were sent to the graveyard at the same time, it is impossible to tell which one will be at the bottom."

"Therefore, this riddle is not testing Youche's memory, but testing Cheng Nei's luck."

Upon hearing this, Honda's dueling enthusiasts suddenly realized what was going on.

As the Peacock Dance said, Youche was now faced with a choice between two options.

"Well? Yu Che, have you got any ideas yet?" Jōnei was covered in sweat, but he still smiled slightly.

After pondering for a moment, knowing he couldn't make an accurate judgment, You Che could only guess through psychological analysis: "I guess it's an Earth Swordsman."

However, the instant he finished answering, colorful light suddenly shone, and the Pterodactyl Warrior was resurrected on the field!

This proves that You Che guessed wrong!

【Pterodactyl Warrior】

【Four stars】

[Earth/Beast]

[Attack/Defense: 1500/1200]

“Heh…” Jonouchi smiled and said with a sigh of relief, “Yusho, although you really did your best to fight me, you still underestimated me in the end.”

"To be honest, Earth Swordsman is more likely, because that monster was the first one I summoned to the field."

"At that time, after I summoned the Wyvern Warrior, I immediately summoned the Barbarian Warrior."

"According to my habitual actions, I would insert the Wyvern Warrior into the Duel Disk and then immediately pull it out, and then pull out another monster as a tribute—Earth Swordsman. In this case, Earth Swordsman is definitely inferior to Wyvern Warrior!"

"However, Yuzuru, since I've included this spell card—Puzzle—in my deck, I'll take that into consideration when handling related actions!"

"To make the monster summoned when activating the puzzle stronger, I deliberately placed the Winged Dragon Warrior at the very bottom when sending those two tribute monsters to the graveyard!!"

Jōnei... This guy actually thought of this much?!

Youche was slightly taken aback.

He did guess wrong, but his line of thinking was actually different from what Jonouchi said.

But none of that matters anymore. After successfully reviving the Wyvern Warriors, the combo within the castle can finally begin!

"Activate the Spell Card - Silent Dead, Special Summon Armored Lizard from the Graveyard!" Jonouchi played the card that was the core of his strategy. "Then activate Summon Steal! This turn, I can Normal Summon one monster from my opponent's hand!"

"If I remember correctly, you should have a Dark Magician's Card in your hand! Yuzuriha!!"

"Now, that monster is mine!!"

"Use the armored lizards and pterosaur warriors as sacrifices!!"

"Superior Summoning!! Dark Magician!!"

"Activate the Spell Card again—Knight's Title—to change the Dark Magician from a Spellcaster to a Warrior!!"

"Equip it with the magic card—Lightning Sword! Increase its attack power by 800!!"

Chapter 132 Defeat! Katsuya Jonouchi!

Amidst the shouts from within the city, the two four-star monsters on the field simultaneously transformed into beams of light and soared into the sky.

A dark red magical energy descended from the sky, and a white-haired black mage holding a staff appeared proudly!

Dark Magician

【Seven Stars】

[Dark Attribute/Mage Race]

[Attack/Defense: 2500/2100]

Immediately afterwards, with the activation of the "Knight's Title" spell, the dark mage, now transformed into a warrior, flicked his wand, turning it into a sharp, spiraling spear!

"Since Dark Magician is now a Warrior-Type monster, I can equip him with the Spell Card—Lightning Sword!" Jonouchi shouted. "With the Lightning Sword, Dark Magician's ATK will increase by 800!!"

"Enter battle phase!"

"Dark Magician! Attack Disrupt Yellow!!"

A golden sword appeared amidst surging electricity. The Dark Mage, wielding a spear in one hand and a lightning sword in the other, charged towards the monsters on the field like a knight!

At this moment, his attack power reached a staggering 3300!

Enough to destroy a Disruption Yellow with only 1000 defense points!!

Facing the menacing Dark Magician, Yu Che waved his hand, flipped open the face-down card, and said: "Activate Magic Card - Capture Device!"

"What?!" The city was suddenly shocked.

He knew the effect of this card: it could only be activated when there was a Normal Monster on his field. Each player had to target one monster on their field and then exchange control of the targeted monster.

Yuchi used this card...

In other words, he has to return the dark magic he just stole immediately!
