How come the Ace of Cups isn't considered the Holy Grail?

By taking the card that was discarded as a cost when activating [Emblem Beast Stad Whale] from the graveyard, Kyoko inserts it into the Duel Disk, adding another face-down card to her field, thus truly ending her turn.

"My turn, draw a card!"

Two monsters and three face-down cards...

Yuto looked at the scene with Kyonobuko and pondered for a moment.

It looks like there will be a lot of Conan, which is really unfriendly to Hope players!

Hmm... let's test the waters first!

"I activate the effect of [RageRageRage Warrior] from my hand, sending 1 'RageRageRage' monster from my Deck to the Graveyard, and Special Summon this card from my hand!"

Kyoko & Ayaka Sajou: ?

The continuous barrage of the word 'anger' seemed to transform into a barrage of bullets aimed at the two women, causing them to momentarily freeze in shock.

Is this... a stutter?

Under the astonished gazes of the two, Yuuto calmly drew one [Rage Rage Rage Dwarf - Rumble Rumble Glove] from his deck.

You're right, but that's the charm of our onomatopoeia deck—it can turn a normal person into a stutterer in an instant...

"I send [Rage Rage Rage Dwarf - Rage Rage Glove] to the Graveyard and Special Summon [Rage Rage Rage Warrior] from my hand! However, this card Special Summoned by this effect will become a Level 4 card and its ATK will become 1800!"

A horned dwarf, clad in heavy bronze armor and wielding an axe and a heavy-looking round shield, strode heavily before Youdu.

【Rage Warrior】

[6 stars → 4 stars]

[Warrior Race/Land]

[Attack power: 2300→1800]

Chapter 258 "Unknown"

"At this very moment, the monster effect of the [Rage Rage Dwarf - Rumble Rumble Glove] that was sent to the graveyard activates!"

Yutari's voice continued to ring out, and Ayaka Sajou looked at the scene before her with a sense of déjà vu.

Yes, very similar!

"If this card is in my Graveyard, and I control any 'Rumble' monster or 'Rumble' monster other than 'Rumble Rumble Dwarf - Rumble Rumble Gloves', I can Special Summon this card from my Graveyard!"

The passage to the cemetery opened, and a dwarf with empty hands and cast-iron gloves on his arms crawled out and stood beside the [AngryAngryAngry Warrior].

【Angry Dwarf - Rumble Gloves】

【4 stars】

【Rock Tribe/Earth】

[Defense: 1800]

There are two 4-star monsters coming!

Yuto slightly raised his chin, and golden particles surrounded him, but they did not gather on the ceiling. Instead, they condensed into a nebula-like vortex around the center of the space between him and Kyoshino.

"I'll use the 4-star [Rage Warrior] and [Rage Dwarf - Rumble Gloves] on the field as materials to stack them!"

"Construct a superimposed network using 2 monsters, XYZ Summon!"

"Come to my side! Rank 4! [I I I I Girl]!"

Several chains with small skulls hanging from their ends were wrapped around her entire body, and a pink ribbon with a girlish touch was tied into a large bow at her back. The edges of her jet-black magic robe were plated with an orange-gold color that resembled flames.

The blonde girl dressed like this is holding a touchscreen phone. She looks like a 'bad girl', but her youthful face makes her look unexpectedly cute.

【Me, me, me, me, a young girl】

【Level 4】

[Excess Material: 2]

[Mage/Xyz/Dark]

[Defense: 1800]

"The effect of 【Me Me Me Me Girl】 activated!"

"If any one of the following cards is used as Xyz Material: 'Shua Lala,' 'Gama Gama,' 'Rumble Rumble,' or 'Rage Rage Rage,' you can detach 1 Xyz Material from this card to activate this effect!"

"Add one of the following cards from your deck to your hand: 'GagGagGag', 'Onomatopoeia', or 'Xyz'!"

"I'm adding the Continuous Spell [Onomatopoeia Selection] to my hand!"

【Me, me, me, me, a young girl】

[Excess Material: 2 → 1]

A ball of light surrounding "I-I-I-I Girl" flew into her phone, and "I-I-I-I-I Girl's" fair fingers immediately began to tap rapidly on the phone screen, even taking a picture.

This familiar process made Youdu somewhat suspicious that she was posting on social media.

So this is how you use this effect?

While Kyoko didn't know anything about social pinging, she understood the principle of not letting her opponent have their way.

"Activate the effect of [No. 69 Emblem of the Gods - Gods Smash]!"

"When a monster on your opponent's field activates its effect, Special Summon 1 [Number 69 Crest of the Shield - Wrath of the Gods] from your Extra Deck as an Xyz Summon to this card on your field!"

"After that, destroy that one of the opponent's monsters!"

The [No. 69 Herald Shield - God's Smash], resembling a giant axe blade, transformed back into a golden ball of light and flew into the vortex that appeared on the ceiling.

Golden light burst forth, tearing apart the nebula-like vortex with immense power. A serpentine being twisted its thick, long body covered in black and gold armor, its sharp lances with cannon muzzles protruding from its conch-shaped gauntlets.

If you were to ask what your first impression was when you saw it, Ayaka Sajou's answer would only be two words.

Alien.

【No. 69 Heraldry and Shield - Wrath of the Gods】

【Level 4】

[Excess Material: 4]

[Psychokinesis/Overpower/Light]

[Attack power: 3100]

Without a word after landing, the Wrath of God sent several golden lightning bolts down from the sky, striking directly at [MeMeMeMeGirl].

Amidst the flashing lightning, the blonde girl tragically perished, but her effect... or rather, the post she made on the social media platform, was successfully sent out. Yuuto silently drew the selected card from his deck.

Immediately afterwards, the dwarven warrior's rough roar echoed from his grave.

"Another effect of the [Rage Warrior] in the graveyard has activated!" The Duel Disk on Yuuto's arm made a 'swish swish' sound.

"If this card, which is used as Xyz Material, is removed to activate the effect of an Xyz Monster, I add 1 'Shalala' monster from my Deck to my hand!"

"I choose to add [Sweat Lalala Knight] to my hand!"

Seeing that the newly appeared God's Wrath on the field of Kyoshinoko did not make any moves, Yuuto drew [Shuffle Rider] and then inserted the previously retrieved [Onomatopoeia Selection] into the Duel Disk.

"Continuous Spell [Onomatopoeia Selection] activated! As part of the effect processing when this card is activated, I can add 1 'Onomatopoeia' card other than [Onomatopoeia Selection] from my Deck to my hand!"

There's no need to hesitate. When activating this card, Yuuto had already decided which card he would use its effect to search for.

"I'll add [Onomatopoeia Link] to my hand and use its effect directly!"

"Send 1 card from your hand to the Graveyard, and add 1 each of the following monsters from your Deck: 'Switch,' 'Gag,' 'Rumble,' and 'Rage Rage', up to a maximum of 2 monsters in total to your hand!"

"The cards I chose are [Shua Lala Bancho - Me Me Me Jacket] and [Rumble Rumble Goblindberg]!"

After exchanging 2 cards for 2, Yuuto put the cards he obtained through effect search aside and took 1 card from his initial hand of 4 cards.

"The effect of 'I-I-I-Go-A-Knight' in my hand activates! I reveal 'I-I-I-I-Magician' from my Extra Deck to you, and Special Summon this card from my hand!"

"After that, I can Special Summon 1 'GagaGaga' monster from my hand! I Special Summon 'Shuffle Bancho - GagaGaga Coat' from my hand!"

A heavily armored knight wielding two tower shields descended from the sky, crashing into the ground and creating a cloud of dust before steadily joining the two shields together to protect Youdu behind him.

【I, I, I'll give it my all, knight】

【4 stars】

[Warrior/Light]

[Defense: 1800]

At the same time, another warrior wielding a spiked iron rod followed him onto the field.

The jet-black armor couldn't conceal his well-defined muscles. The collar of his coat was connected by an iron chain, and a red scarf was tied around his neck, fluttering behind him like a cape.

[Brush Lala Bancho - Me Me Me Jacket]

【4 stars】

[Warrior Race/Land]

[Attack power: 1800]

"Activate the monster effect of [Shua Lala Bancho - Ga Ga Ga Coat]!"

Just as Yuwatari was about to activate the effect again, Kyoko, who hadn't reacted at all since then, spoke up.

"Wait, chain the effect of your [Shua Lala Bancho - Ga Ga Ga Coat] on the field, and I'll activate the effect of [No. 69 Emblem of the Aegis - Wrath of the Gods]!"

An extra-material surrounding him detached from its orbit and entered the muzzle of the cannon on the arm of the Wrath of God, like a loaded bullet. A beam of light shot out from the cannon and hit [Shua Lala Bancho - I I I Coat].

Now they're really in a tough spot.

Chapter 259 You can't have all three of them, can you?

"Once per turn for either player, detach 1 Xyz Material from this card, target 1 face-up monster your opponent controls, and treat that monster's name as 'Unknown'!"

"Furthermore, as long as [No. 69 Aegis of the Gods - Wrath of the Gods] exists in the Monster Zone, any 'Unknown' effects activated by the opponent will be nullified!"

Golden lightning struck again, but this time it did not directly shatter the monsters on the field. Instead, it made [Shalala Bancho - Ga Ga Ga Coat] look much weaker.

Even though he was still carrying that thick iron bar, he looked somewhat listless.

The effect was nullified...

You Du frowned, then relaxed.

No problem, he had anticipated this level of hindrance.

Changing the card name is a bit of a hassle.

"In that case, I usually summon [Rumble Goblindberg] from my hand!"

buzzing-

The sound of a propeller spinning filled the indoor space. A green-skinned goblin pilot, dressed in thick clothing, flew over Youdu's head in a red propeller plane and landed in front of him.

[Rumble, rumble, rumble, goblindberg]

When I summon [Rumble Goblindberg], I can Special Summon 1 non-Warrior-Type "Rumble" monster from my hand, Deck, or Graveyard!
