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

[Earth Attribute/Warrior Race]

[Attack/Defense: 900/0]

"Go! Mysterious swordsman! Attack the Red-Eyes Black Dragon!!" Jonouchi shouted loudly, full of momentum.

But both the onlookers and the dinosaur Ryuzaki found the scene hilarious.

"Are you crazy?" Dinosaur Ryuzaki sneered. "You actually let a monster with only 900 attack power attack my Red-Eyes Black Dragon?!"

"While Lv monsters are powerful, their strength lies solely in their ability to continuously evolve!"

"To launch an attack in a mere Lv2 form is nothing short of suicide!!"

Facing the short swordsman charging towards him, the Red-Eyed Black Dragon took a deep breath and prepared to launch a counterattack!

Just as it was about to unleash another black flame projectile, a dark blue tome appeared out of thin air, and as a ray of moonlight shone down, it transformed into an inside defense position!

"Whoosh————————————"

The enigmatic swordsman, only at level two, swung his sword with a flourish, an arc of light flashed, followed by a deafening explosion!

"boom!!!!!!!"

Everyone was shocked to see this.

in the end……

what happened?

"My Red-Eyes Black Dragon...?!" Looking at his shattered ace, Ryuzaki, the dinosaur, stared wide-eyed, unable to believe that it was all real.

Chapter 44 A Duel of Unity

The outcome of the duel between the king and the insect moth can only be one.

In the end, the insect moth lost all its star chips and, just as Yu Che had predicted, became the first player to be eliminated from the island, while Wang Yang's chip count increased from one to three.

After the duel ended, Chiyo was taken offline, and the gentle Yugi Muto regained control of her body.

"Huh? Kyoko, didn't you find Jonouchi?"

"No, I've been waiting there for a long time."

"Oh no, could it be that we got lost because we didn't have a map card?"

The group was somewhat worried, so they began searching for him within the city.

They searched the entire forest but couldn't find any trace of the creature.

The three, panting, rested under a large tree after regrouping.

Just when they felt helpless, a duelist who was being forcibly dragged away by men in black said with dissatisfaction, "Hey! Even if I'm eliminated, there's no need to be in such a hurry!"

"At least let me watch that duel!"

"I don't even know how the mysterious swordsman destroyed the Red-Eyes Black Dragon!"

A mysterious swordsman?!

The three of them immediately grasped the key information!

When he first arrived on this island, Jonouchi obtained a Level 2 Monster Card through an NPC event, which was none other than "Mysterious Swordsman Level 2"!

Yugi quickly caught up and asked what was going on. After learning that the duel was taking place in the wilderness, the three of them immediately left the forest and headed towards the direction where it might be located within the city...

"N-N-what?! What on earth happened?" Dinosaur Ryuzaki was completely stunned by the sword strike.

Before he could react, a violent impact struck, deducting nearly a thousand of his LP!

"Beep beep beep beep————"

Ryuzaki Dinosaur, LP: 5000→4100

"What on earth is going on?!" The bewildered dinosaur Ryuzaki was somewhat enraged.

Yu Che smiled slightly and revealed the card he had just activated: "At the moment the Mysterious Swordsman Lv2 launched its attack, I used the Spell Card - Book of the Moon to turn Red-Eyes Black Dragon into face-down Defense Position!"

"And the effect of Mysterious Swordsman Lv2 is that when this card attacks a face-down Defense Position monster, it can be destroyed directly without damage calculation!"

"Since this is an effect disruption, you will also suffer backlash damage equivalent to 30% of the Red-Eyes Black Dragon's attack power!"

"Dinosaur Ryuzaki! Jonouchi is definitely not the kind of person who's holding us back that you're making him out to be!"

"No matter how many more LPs you have than us, we will join forces to defeat you!!"

"Tsk! How awful..." Ryuzaki the dinosaur gritted his teeth.

That attack just now greatly boosted Jonouchi's confidence, and with his confidence restored, he began to actively think about tactics.

Although the Red-Eyes Black Dragon was successfully defeated, the opponent still has the Two-Headed Dinosaur King on the field. If the Two-Headed Dinosaur King, empowered by the Field buff, launches a counterattack against the Mysterious Swordsman, it will suffer severe damage...

At this moment, a trap card in his hand caught Jonouchi's attention; it was a card he had traded for in the dormitory on the cruise ship.

He initially looked down on this kind of trap card, but the game told him that it was actually a very useful card and that he had to find a way to get it.

“Then… let’s set this card face down on the field.” Jonouchi’s smile gradually spread across his face. “My turn is over. It’s your turn, Ryuzaki the Dinosaur!”

"Don't get cocky!" Being defeated by an amateur like Jonouchi was undoubtedly an insult to Ryuzaki, the national runner-up. He shouted angrily, "My offensive hasn't even begun yet!"

"Draw! Summon in Attack Position! Evil Knight Dragon!"

A hideous dragon, resembling a ghost, flew out from the black mist emanating from the card. Its ferocious appearance was worlds apart from the majestic and imposing Red-Eyes Black Dragon.

However, as a Dark-attribute Dragon monster, Evil Knight Dragon can also be blessed by the Claws of Dark Dragons. Ryuzaki Dinosaur will use it as a substitute if he doesn't get Red-Eyes Black Dragon.

【Evil Knight Dragon】

【Seven Stars】

[Dark Attribute/Dragon Race]

[Attack/Defense: 2350/2400]

"Enter battle mode!" Dinosaur Ryuzaki shouted. "Evil Knight Dragon! Two-Headed Dinosaur King! Attack!!"

In order to avenge the death of the Red-Eyes Black Dragon, Ryuzaki the Dinosaur prepares to vent his anger on the seemingly weak but mysterious swordsman.

The evil knight dragon opened its jaws, and dark purple dragon breath began to gather!

But just then, Jonouchi suddenly flipped open the card: "The instant you attack, use the trap card - Chained Boomerang!"

"This card has two effects, I choose to activate both!"

"Force Evil Knight Dragon to Defense Position! Equip this card as an Equip Card to Mysterious Swordsman Lv2!!"

"Boom!!!!"

Dust billowed up, and the tall, evil dragon knight tripped over his chains.

The dashing, enigmatic swordsman pulled hard, retrieving the boomerang and merging it with the lightsaber in his hand.

"Beep beep beep beep————"

Mysterious Swordsman Lv2, Attack Power: 900 → 1400

"Ha!" Dinosaur Ryuzaki sneered, "But I still have a two-headed dinosaur king! Go! Kill that wretched mysterious swordsman!"

"Due to the effect of the wilderness terrain, the Two-Headed Dinosaur King's attack power will increase by 30%! Reaching 2080!!"

"Beep beep beep beep——————"

Two-Headed Dinosaur King, Attack Power: 1600 → 2080

"Oh no..."

A bead of sweat rolled down the forehead of the man inside the castle.

His Mysterious Swordsman is different from other Level 5 monsters. While other monsters can evolve for the first time by surviving for one turn, the Mysterious Swordsman must destroy a monster in battle.

The Mysterious Swordsman's attack power is currently 680 less than that of the Two-Headed Dinosaur King. If his attack power were higher, he might be able to evolve into a stronger form this round!

Jōnei was somewhat helpless, but his mindset was quite good at the moment.

For a beginner like him, as long as he doesn't hold the team back and can make some contribution, that's enough.

Although the Mysterious Swordsman can be destroyed, he still has other cards to use.

Losing a monster is not a big deal.

Just as Jonouchi was about to abandon his newly summoned main monster, Yusuke revealed his last face-down card: "Spell Card activated - Rush! Increase the ATK of Mysterious Swordsman Lv2 by 700 until the end of the turn!!"

Crimson flames ignited from the mysterious swordsman's weapon, and with this renewed power, he gained the strength to turn the tide of battle!

"Beep beep beep beep————"

Mysterious Swordsman Lv2, Attack Power: 1400 → 2100

"Youche!" The city was overjoyed.

"I told you, summon the Mysterious Swordsman, and leave the rest to me!" Yu Che's eyes shone with confidence. "Although the wilderness is disadvantageous to us, as long as we protect the Mysterious Swordsman, with his special effects, we can destroy any dinosaur monster, no matter how powerful it is!"

Chapter 45 Ancient Brachiosaurus

"Whoosh——————————"

"Bang!!!!"

In the end, the Mysterious Swordsman Lv2 defeated the Two-Headed Dinosaur King by a mere 20 points.

Ryuzaki Dinosaur, LP: 4100→4080

Looking at the two smug guys opposite him, Ryuzaki, the dinosaur, felt a tickle in his teeth.

However, he still holds a huge advantage, both in terms of the current situation and the LP (Limited Partners).

Although the Evil Knight Dragon's attack power is 50 lower than that of the Red-Eyes Black Dragon, its defense power of 2400 is something that the Red-Eyes Black Dragon does not have.

The Moon Book of the Wanderer has already been used.

As long as they cannot change their monsters to face-down defense position, Evil Knight Dragon will remain invincible!

The round ended with the dinosaur Ryuzaki.

Just as he announced the end, a dazzling light shone from the Mysterious Swordsman Lv2.
