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

As the "click" sounded, Yuzuru prepared to put away his Duel Disk, while Yugi on the other side was also ready to end the battle. He swept all three monsters on his Duel Disk into the Graveyard, then slammed down a God Card and loudly called out the name of that Phantom God.

"Then it's my turn! Draw a card!"

"Use the three Knights JQK on the field as sacrifices!!"

"Superior Summoning - God Card!!"

"Obelisk the Colossus!!!"

Chapter 218 The Call of the Card Spirit

"Boom!"

A deep blue light emanated from the God Card in Yugi's hand, and the figure of Obelisk the Tormentor appeared in the night sky. However, just as Yugi was about to sacrifice three monsters to summon this phantom god, a deafening thunderclap rang out and suddenly exploded on the card!

It was an extremely pale, serpentine bolt of lightning. The moment the raging lightning struck, the divine image of the Titan of Obelisk vanished in an instant!

"Bang!"

Large plumes of grayish-white smoke billowed outwards from the surrounding panels. The intense pain emanating from the cards caused Wang Yang to bend over, his nearly numb wrists gripped tightly as he gritted his teeth.

"Tsk!!" Large beads of cold sweat rolled down Wang Yang's forehead. "How could this be... how could this happen? The Titan of Obelisk cannot be summoned?!"

Everyone stared in utter shock at this scene.

Even You Che, who had just finished the battle, couldn't help but widen his eyes.

In the end what happened?

Logically, the summoning of God Cards shouldn't be negated!

But why can't we summon Obelisk the Tormentor, and why have all three monsters that were sacrificed disappeared?!

Standing on high ground, the Four Swordsmen of Dorma, watching all this with smug satisfaction, let out a contemptuous laugh:

"Pharaoh, from the moment you tried to awaken your memories with the Egyptian God cards, you had already fallen into Lord Daz's trap!"

"What's sealed away isn't just the ancient stone tablet, but also those three monster cards bearing the name of Phantom Gods!!"

Upon hearing this, Jonouchi couldn't help but recall the events that had occurred not long ago: "Sealing the God Card? Could it be that you are also involved with the Pyramid of Light?!"

Rafiru crossed his arms and said in a calm tone, "No, even if we trace the origins of the Pyramid of Light, it is only a product of a few thousand years ago."

"And our Doma Organization and the Light of Orichalcos are an eternal power that has existed for tens of thousands of years!"

"The Three Phantom Gods are merely deities from three thousand years ago. Compared to a god named 'G' who has lived for ten thousand years, they are ultimately just lowly, mediocre, and weaklings!!"

Tens of thousands of years?!

This staggering number caused everyone present to change their expressions drastically.

In most people's minds, the power of cards dates back to ancient Egypt three thousand years ago, so how could this so-called Doma and Orichalcos be tens of thousands of years old?!

“If that’s the case, then the timeline will probably be different from the original story…” Yu Che frowned, pondering to himself, “It seems that even if the God Card is in Yugi’s hands, he can’t fully unleash the power of God unless he defeats Doma and Daz…”

"Hahahahaha!" Seeing Pharaoh suffer a setback, Rafiru's last servant in the duel couldn't help but laugh wildly, "Pharaoh, since you can't do anything, you can only end your turn, right?"

"Summoning the God Cards was your biggest mistake!!"

"If I offer my soul as a sacrifice to Orichalcos, Lord Raferul and Lord Daz will reward me handsomely!!"

"My turn! Draw a card!!"

"Activate the Spell Card - Warrior's Survival!!"

"Add the Warrior-Type monster, Charge Captain, from the Graveyard to your hand!!"

"Summon the Charge Captain in Attack Position from the Spell & Trap Zone, then summon another monster from your hand in Attack Position!!"

"Next, activate the Continuous Spell Card—Allied Forces!!"

"For every Warrior or Spellcaster monster on my field, all Warrior monsters gain 200 ATK!!!"

"Smack!"

The moment the card was played, the attack power of those rows of Warrior-type monsters instantly surged!

At this moment, Rafael's servant has seven monsters on the field, and with the added boost from the Orichalcos Barrier, each Warrior-Type monster has an attack power exceeding 2000!

As for Yugi, he had nothing except a face-down card in the back row.

"Heh~" Rafiru's servant sneered, "Pharaoh, until now, you haven't used your Divine Power: Reflecting Mirror Wall. To prevent you from using that card to ambush my army, I must destroy it beforehand!!"

"Quick-Play Spell Card activated - Whirlwind!!"

"Destroy your only face-down card, then enter the battle phase!!"

"All monsters, launch a direct attack on the Pharaoh!!!"

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

Amidst the raging storm, seven high-attack warriors charged simultaneously. Each of their weapons shone with dazzling light, and each of them had a dark green six-pointed star pattern on their foreheads!

Everyone had just witnessed Yugi's duel and understood the cost of defeat within the Orichalcos Barrier. Now, with Yugi suffering such a terrifying attack, everyone felt a chill run down their spines.

"A game!!!" Kyoko exclaimed in alarm.

Just as the seven warriors were about to attack Wang Yang, a beam of holy light descended, and three messengers emerged from the light, stopping the attack.

"While you were destroying my face-down card, I chain-activated a Trap Card—Peacekeeper!!" Yugi shouted gravely. "Whirlwind can destroy Spell & Trap Cards, but it can't negate the effects of the destroyed cards! Therefore, under the effect of Peacekeeper, all battle damage I received this turn is reduced to zero!!"

“Damn it…” Rafiru’s servant sneered, “But so what, Pharaoh?”

"Without the God Cards, you can't possibly break down my board!!"

Even if you manage to escape this round, I will still defeat you in the next round!

"Hurry up and begin your final round!!"

"Whoosh——————————————"

Yugi drew a card from the deck, staring coldly at his opponent. The green light emanating from Orichalcos made his serious expression appear even somewhat frightening.

"I have no idea what you mean by Dorma and Orichalcos!"

"However, you sealed the God Card with your conspiracy, blocked my path to regaining my memories, and even brought disaster to the world. This is already unforgivable!!"

"Those guys standing up there who call themselves the Four Musketeers, you're the next ones I'm going to defeat!!"

"My turn, draw a card!!"

"Spell Card activated - Monster Resurrection, reviving the Dark Magician from the Graveyard!!"

Dark Magician

【Seven Stars】

[Dark Attribute/Mage Race]

[Attack/Defense: 2500/2100]

"Pay another 2000 LP to activate the Spread Wave. This turn, the Dark Magician can launch one attack on each of the opponents!!"

"But that alone is not enough to defeat you, so I'll add this card—Dark Magic Missile Barrage!!"

"Increases the attack power of Dark Magicians by the combined attack power of Dark Magician Girls in both graveyards!!"

"The duel is over!! Go, Dark Magician!!!"

"Splash splash ...

The silver Anka Cross rose from the ground, and the previously fallen Dark Mage was resurrected from it, gaining power from the Dark Magegirl. Terrifying magical power poured out, and a dark rainbow swept across, pulverizing all seven Warrior-type monsters and completely depleting the enemy's LP!

"What?!" The duelist, who had been so smug just moments before, was shocked as the unstoppable attack came crashing down on him. Before he could even react, massive combat damage had already pierced through his body!

As punishment, Orichalcos descended upon the barrier, sealing his soul within the card.

"Boom..."

The unconscious duelist collapsed to the ground, his cards scattered in his hands.

Seeing that both duels ended so quickly, even the arrogant Four Swordsmen of Dorma couldn't help but nod slightly.

"From this perspective, both the Pharaoh and the Duel King are indeed as powerful as outsiders claim."

"This time, consider it a simple greeting."

"But next time, your opponent will be us!"

As he spoke, the slender and tall "swordsman" swiftly swung the card in his hand and stuck it into the duelist who had just been defeated by Yugi. It was the super rare card that had just been taken away by these four people - Blue-Eyes White Dragon.

"Boom boom boom!"

The roar of the motorcycle engine resumed, and the four mounted their vehicles, ready to leave.

As the wheels kicked up clouds of dust, You Che quickly stepped forward and shouted, "Since we're going to be rivals, leave your names first!!"

As he said this, You Che could feel his hands trembling slightly.

He knew the names of those three people very well; what he wanted to know was the identity of the fourth person!

"Heh~" The red-haired boy wearing goggles chuckled as he held the helmet he was about to put on, "My name? I might as well tell you."

“My name is Baron, and his name is Ameruda.”

As he spoke, he pointed to the thin boy who had just returned the Blue-Eyes White Dragon, and then to the strong Rafael and the mysterious duelist who was nearly two meters tall, and continued to introduce them.

"You should already know this person, he is Rafael."

"As for the last one..."

Before he could speak, the fourth mysterious duelist suddenly turned his gaze to Youche and said coldly, "My name is—Antied Duroch."

"Youche, there's a card that rightfully belongs to me that you've had for far too long."

"Next time, I will take that card back completely through a duel!!"

After saying that, the roar of the engine echoed through the night, and the four of them disappeared from everyone's sight at lightning speed.

The pitch-black night enveloped Domino City, with the roars of the rampaging Card Spirits occasionally echoing from nearby.

“Baron? Why does that guy seem a little familiar…” Jonouchi said blankly, staring in the direction the group had left.

Honda and Kyoko picked up the Blue-Eyes White Dragon and returned it to King Yu, carefully examining the injury on his arm.

As for Youche, he stood there feeling relieved, but at the same time his mood gradually became complicated.
