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

"At the same time, Special Summon Disruptive Blue from the Graveyard in Defense Position!!"

"Put two cards on the counter!!"

"Round over!!"

"Hmph~" Peacock Dance chuckled smugly, "A venue card? Planning to advance slowly with a steady tactic?"

"But unfortunately, I also got my ace in the first round, and it just so happens to be able to break your Disruptive Land!!"

"Field Spell Card activated - Harpie's Hunting Ground!!"

"According to the rules of the next-generation Duel City, only one Field Spell Card can exist on the field at a time. When the second card is activated, the first Field Spell Card will be replaced!!"

"Come on, let's turn this entire battlefield into a hunting party!!!"

"Bang!"

One by one, the cute little mushroom houses collapsed, exposing the troublemakers that had been hiding inside to the wilderness. A few feathers drifted down from the sky, and the mysterious harpy woman was watching her prey from somewhere.

"That card, does it depict disturbance...?" Otogi Ryuji asked, bewildered.

Jonouchi replied somewhat bewilderedly, "It seems so. So, the Harpie is the natural enemy of Disruption?"

In the duel arena, shortly after this field card is played, the Harpie, the Hunter, flies into the battlefield, her arrival accompanied by the destruction of a card in the back row.

Youche paid extra attention to his Pokémon.

Sure enough, the moment they saw the Harpie, the Disruptors became tense.

This seems to be a suppression stemming from bloodline.

Meanwhile, the duel between Yugi and Leon has begun.

Wang Yang did not intentionally reveal the truth; he hoped that Leon could make the choice himself.

Out of respect for the exceptionally talented young man before him, Wang Yang showed no mercy and used his full strength.

After struggling to hold on for a while, Leon suddenly drew the card his brother had given him—Golden Palace of Rapids.

Seeing the child's expression, Wang Yang knew what was going on. He encouraged Leon in his heart, praying that he wouldn't make a decision he would regret.

Staring at the card for a long time, recalling the memories he shared with his brother, Leon finally exhaled and shook his head firmly: "No... I can't do this!"

"Each card holds special significance for every duelist, and I cannot simply erase the bonds between them!!"

"The Lloyd family is indeed declining, but I believe there must be other ways!!"

"If... if dueling is the only way out, then let me shoulder this mission!!"

"I will definitely lead the Lloyd family to new heights, just like President Haiba led the KC Group!!"

Leon's performance pleased Wang Yang.

When Sieg Lloyd, who was temporarily under house arrest, noticed this scene, he showed a disappointed expression. Finally, he pressed the button on his watch, and Leon's Duel Disk automatically triggered the field card—the data of the Golden Palace of Rapids!

"What?! I didn't activate it at all! The card is still in my hand!!" Leon exclaimed in panic.

Behind him, endless radiance emanated, and a magnificent golden palace appeared out of thin air, enveloping the entire duel in an eerie, dark fairytale atmosphere...

Chapter 277 The Trap Shatters! A Banshee Storm Sweeps Through the Backfield!

"Leon..."

"You really have disappointed me..."

Inside the makeshift detention room, Zig Lloyd watched the live broadcast of the match in the corridor, shook his head, but soon a triumphant smile appeared on his face.

"However, I expected this to happen."

"So the card's information was pre-programmed into the Duel Disk, so no matter what you do, that card will eventually activate."

"Now it seems that your parents' unwillingness to raise you wasn't just because you're the second son. This incident shows that you have no determination to dedicate everything to the Lloyd family!"

"Hehehe, the magnificent palace has appeared!"

"Seto Kaiba, just prepare to watch your years of hard work be destroyed in an instant!!"

Hahahahahaha!!!

The sudden appearance of the golden palace stunned the audience. The extremely magnificent scene attracted everyone's attention. Because this card was produced very early and no more cards were issued afterward, ninety percent of people have never seen this Golden Palace of Rapids Mountain.

However, when Muto Sugoroku, a collector, and Professor Hopkins, who were in the audience, saw this, their expressions immediately fell.

“It’s this one…” Hopkins’ expression turned serious, his brows furrowed.

Sugoroku Muto responded in the same tone: "It seems the game is about to face a tough battle..."

"Whoosh————————————————————"

A waterfall shimmering like jewels cascaded down from the heights of the Golden Palace. Standing in that magnificent yet eerie fairytale palace, Leon was so anxious he was almost in tears: "I really didn't do anything! The card is still in my hands!!"

"Brother!" Kaiba Keipei rushed to Kaiba Seto's side and said, "Leon is innocent!"

Seto Kaiba crossed his arms and said calmly, "I know the surveillance footage shows that he didn't use that card. However, when that card appeared, the duel couldn't be stopped."

Kaiba Keihei was taken aback when he saw the word "Error" displayed on the control panel screen.

Seto Kaiba continued, "I understand your sympathy for that child, and for us who were prepared, the biggest loss is just the backup system specifically designed for defense."

"However, I'm really looking forward to seeing how the game will handle such situations."

"Although Leon ultimately chose to give up that card, that card only appeared because of him. If the game cannot resolve that card, then the shadow in that child's heart will still not be erased."

During the match, Leon kept waving to the referee, signaling to stop the duel, but Isono could only respond helplessly, indicating that the event organizers' system had been hacked.

"How could this happen..." Leon's eyes were filled with tears. "If only... I should have made the decision sooner!"

"It's all my fault for not being firm enough in my determination to duel..."

"Otherwise, this terrible thing wouldn't have happened!"

"It's over... it's over..."

"Leon!!" Wang Yang's voice suddenly came from the other side, "Don't give up the duel! You've come this far for your dream. The match isn't over yet, there's still room for maneuver!!"

Leon said with a sob in his voice, "But! This card's data has been... modified. Once activated, it cannot be destroyed by any other means, not even by replacing it with another field card!"

"Plus the exaggerated abilities that have been altered... the outcome of this duel is already decided..."

"When the holder of the Golden Palace of Rapids Mountain wins, all data in the dueling world will be erased!"

"It's all my fault, it's all my fault..."

The audience erupted in uproar upon hearing these words.

But King Yukio still firmly encouraged him, "Leon, do you believe in duels?"

Leon was stunned.

Wang Yu smiled confidently: "As long as you believe in duels and cards, they will respond to you in the same way!"

"In a duel, nothing is ever completely impossible!!"

"Leon, this isn't your fault; you were just being used!"

"As long as we can get rid of this card, nothing has changed!"

"Come on, let's work together to take down this weird card!!"

Wang Yang's words inspired Leon, who wiped away his tears and resolved to use all his strength to change everything.

Sieg Lloyd overheard their conversation as well, and upon learning that Yugi Muto and Leon were going to join forces to destroy the Golden Palace of Rapids Mountain, he smiled contemptuously:

"Useless~ The modified effect is practically invincible~"

"Even if my foolish brother misses every turn, the Golden Palace of Rapids Mountain alone is enough to win this battle!"

Youche and Kongquewu are still fighting.

But the striking scene beside it was hard not to notice.

Kong Quewu's gaze darkened: "So you've finally come?"

Gazing at the magnificent palace that was slowly taking shape, I recalled the plot of the original work in my mind.

As an early experimental card of Pegasus, the Golden Palace of Rapids had an extremely exaggerated ability. Sieg Lloyd further improved the original by changing the cost of maintaining the card to be paid by the opponent.

Therefore, most duelists simply have no way to deal with this card.

However, Yugi is Yugi; he will definitely be able to work with Leon to solve that terrible card.

"Youcha!!" Mai Kongque shouted, "Before worrying about others, take a good look at your own game!!"

"Attack signal summoned—Harpie Girl: Electronic Bodysuit!!"

"At the same time, Harpie's Hunting Ground effect is triggered. When Harpie is successfully Normal or Special Summoned, you can destroy one Spell/Trap Card on your opponent's field!!"

"I want to choose the card on your far right!!"

"In addition, the Harpie Girl monster will also gain a 200-point boost to both attack and defense!!"

"Liao——————————————————"

A sharp eagle cry rang out, and a harpy woman clad in electronic armor, wielding a long whip, descended from the sky. With a single lash, she shattered one of the Gadgetzan's cards. The Disruptor Blue, crouching on the ground, trembled at the sight of its natural enemy, momentarily forgetting that it was a modified, enhanced Disruptor—Ojama!
