Yu-Gi-Oh!: This isn't a duel!

Five warriors, each with a distinct style yet equally filled with heroic spirit, formed an invincible hero squad and once again appeared on Youyang's field with an unparalleled and powerful presence!

Awaken your elemental heroes! [★10]

[Light/Warrior/Fusion/Effect] [Attack: 2500 / Defense: 2100]

Looking at this familiar yet unfamiliar scene on the field, You Yang's approach this time was completely different from the last time!

Are they a group of heroes? What kind of powerful abilities do they possess?

Just as the man with the bull horn mask was thinking this, You Yang's voice rang out!

"At this moment, the first effect of [Awaken Your Elemental Heroes] activates!"

"This card gains 300 ATK for each monster used as Fusion Material for this card!"

"Furthermore, during the same battle phase, you can launch attacks against monsters up to the number of monster types for which you used fusion materials!"

"I just used nine different kinds of monsters as fusion materials!"

"Therefore, the attack power of [Awaken Your Elemental Hero] will increase by 2700 points in one go!"

Eight different phantom images of heroes appeared simultaneously behind the five heroes, giving their bodies a faint, dazzling golden light that represented the power of "bonds"!

[Awaken Your Elemental Heroes] [Attack: 2500 → 5200 / Defense: 2100]

"Is it just about increasing my attack power?"

The man in the bull-horned mask spoke with a hint of relief, then said:

"But don't forget, your [Miracle Fusion] card's effect is to banish all monsters from the graveyard!"

"In other words, your grave is now completely empty!"

"The effect of your [Destiny Hero Destroyer Phoenix] lowering the attack power of my monsters will also be nullified!"

As his words fell, the two [Predatory Plant Rhinoceros Dragons] on the field shuddered violently, shattering the dark flames that had surrounded them, brought by the [Destiny Hero Destroyer Phoenix]!

[Plant-eating Rhinoceros Horn] [Attack Power: 1100 → 2700]

[Plant-eating Rhinoceros Horn] [Attack Power: 0 → 1350]

A slight smile played on You Yang's lips beneath the mask as he calmly said:

"Of course I know that!"

"Therefore, in order to deal with this situation, I will activate this card!"

You Yang slowly revealed his last card!

"I activate the effect of [Elemental HERO True Neos] from my hand!"

"You can discard this card from your hand, then target 1 'HERO' monster on the field to activate this effect."

"That monster's attack power will increase by 2500 points until the end of the turn!"

"I activate this effect targeting the [Awaken Your Elemental Hero] on the field!"

"Please accept this final bit of help!"

"—My heroes!"

As Youyang sent the card in his hand to the graveyard, behind each of the five heroes on the field, a pair of pure white wings made of pure light simultaneously materialized!

Their aura surged wildly once again!

[Awaken Your Elemental Heroes] [Attack: 4900 → 7700 / Defense: 2100]

"Attack power... 7700 points?!"

"That's not all!"

Yu Yang's voice rang out again, "Now that [Elemental HERO True Neos] has been sent to the Graveyard, my Graveyard once again contains a 'Hero' monster!"

"Therefore, the effect of [Destiny Hero Destroys the Phoenix] will apply again!"

"The attack power of all monsters on your field will decrease by 200 points again!"

Chapter 118 A desperate struggle! A direct attack of 7200!

Dark flames surged again, and the monster on the field was once again surrounded by flames!

[Plant-eating Rhinoceros Horn] [Attack Power: 2700 → 2500]

[Plant-eating Rhinoceros Horn] [Attack Power: 1350 → 1150]

That's enough damage!

"The battle has begun!"

"I'm entering combat mode!"

You Yang suddenly waved his hand, and the five heroes on the field were ready to go. The powerful pressure made the man with the bull horn mask hold his breath!

The man in the horned mask glanced subconsciously at his duel disk, looking at the mere 6000 health points displayed there.

For the first time, a slightly panicked expression appeared on his face.

This value represents the price he paid to activate the [Transcendent Fusion] effect.

At this moment, if You Yang uses [Awaken Your Elemental Hero] with an attack power of 7700 points to attack his [Predatory Plant Rhinoceros] with an attack power of only 1150 points.

Then he's doomed to lose!

We must never let this happen!

Just as You Yang was about to give the attack order, the man in the bull horn mask waved his hand, and his long-silent graveyard lit up with an eerie dark purple light once again!

"I activate the effect of the [Plant-eating Hydra] in the graveyard!"

"If this card is on the field or in your Graveyard, you can banish 1 other 'Predator Plant' monster from your Graveyard, then target 1 face-up monster on the field. That monster loses 500 ATK."

"This effect can also be activated during the opponent's turn."

"I'm excluding the predatory bottle ants from the cemetery!"

"Target your [Awaken Your Sleeping Elemental Hero] on the field and reduce its attack power by 500!"

A jet-black, ominous-looking leech suddenly leaped out of the horned masked man's grave and, like a ghost, attached itself to the five heroes.

[Awaken your sleeping elemental heroes] [Attack Power: 7700 → 7200]

Looking at the [Awaken Your Sleeping Elemental Hero] on the field, whose attack power was still as high as 7200 points, the man with the bull horn mask knew that this was still not enough.

So he shouted again:

"Next, I activate the effect of [Predatory Planet] in the graveyard!"

A strong emerald green light suddenly burst forth from the grave of the man with the bull horn mask!

The phantom of a trap card slowly rose from the light!

"You can activate this effect by banishing this card from the graveyard."

"Send the Fusion Material Monsters listed on a Fusion Monster Card from your hand or field to the Graveyard, and Fusion Summon that Fusion Monster from your Extra Deck."

"When this effect is used for Fusion Summoning, monsters other than 'Predator Plant' cannot be used as Fusion Material."

"I'm sending the two [Predatory Herbivorous Rhinoceros] on the field to the Graveyard as fusion materials!"

The man in the bull-horned mask removed two monsters from his Duel Disk and sent them to the graveyard.

"Let the two ultimate predators devour each other, and from that endless hunger and killing intent, the most perfect monster be born!"

Fusion Summon!

"Show yourself! Level 7! — [Predatory Plant Chimera Flower]!"

Green vegetation spread wildly, and a bizarrely shaped, primal, and perfect ultimate predatory plant descended onto the field!

Its main body is a huge and flamboyant flower, like a giant hibiscus.

The edges of the petals were covered with countless crystal-clear, yet deadly, viscous droplets.

On either side and behind that giant flower, several ferocious heads, covered with sharp teeth, grew out!

[Predatory Plant Chimera Flower] [★7] [Dark/Plant/Fusion/Effect] [Attack: 2500 / Defense: 2000]

That should allow me to survive, right?

The man with the bull horn mask was secretly making plans.

The newly arrived [Predatory Plant Chimera] was immediately surrounded by the ominous dark flames of [Destiny Hero Destroyer Phoenix], and its attack power began to decline.

[Predatory Plant Chimera Flower] [Attack: 2500 → 2300 / Defense: 2000]

Even so, the man in the bull-horned mask wasn't worried at all.

Because the [Predatory Plant Chimera Flower] has a crucial and powerful effect that can turn the tide of battle!

That is—this card can only be activated when the opponent declares an attack to battle a face-up monster.

Until the end of the turn, the opponent's monster's ATK decreases by 1000, while this card's ATK increases by 1000!

Therefore, there are only two ways for You Yang to kill him in this round.

Alternatively, use the [Destiny Hero Destroyer Phoenix] with 2500 attack power to attack his [Predatory Plant Chimera Flower].

Although the attack power of the Predatory Plant Chimera Flower appears to be weaker than that of the Predatory Plant Chimera Flower due to the effect of the Destiny Hero Destroying Phoenix.

However, the predatory plant Chimera will only reveal its deadly fangs when the attack is declared.

Instantly boosting attack power to 3300 points, while suppressing the attack power of [Destiny Hero Destroyer Phoenix] to 1500 points, thus easily disrupting its battle!

Alternatively, you could use the [Awaken Your Sleeping Elemental Hero] with its 6900 attack power to attack, and then use [Destiny Hero Destroy Phoenix] to finish off the remaining damage.

However, at that moment, the attack power of [Awaken Your Sleeping Elemental Hero] will drop to 6200 points due to the effect of [Chimera Flower].

Meanwhile, the attack power of the [Predatory Plant Chimera Flower] will also increase to 3300 points.

In that case, the attack from 【Awaken Your Sleeping Elemental Hero】 will only deal 3000 combat damage to him.

Even if the [Destiny Hero Destroys the Phoenix] continues to attack, he will still have a full 500 health points left!

And those last 500 health points are all he has to turn the tide in the next round!

Perhaps to those low-level duelists, having their health points drop to 500 is a terrifying prospect, almost equivalent to defeat.
