This Hextech Duel Master is a pro at getting targets.

Pegasus flipped over another face-down card on the field and laughed mockingly, "You Shuo Boy, I really like your way of using trickery to break trickery!"

"But as the father of Duel Monsters, I wouldn't be where I am today if I didn't have enough strength!"

"The Black Flame Dragon of Horus only sealed away the Spell Cards! My Trap Cards can still be activated!"

"Activate the Continuous Trap Card - Blood Sacrifice!!"

"As long as this card is on the field, I can perform another Normal Summon by paying 500 LP!!"

"Come on!! Blue-Eyes White Dragon!!!"

"Beep beep beep—"

[Pegasus, LP: 2000→1500]

Pegasus sacrificed his own life points to summon the strongest monster card in Duel Monsters - Blue-Eyes White Dragon!

The white dragon, possessing absolute power, appeared proudly and immediately launched an attack on Horus's Black Flame Dragon upon its arrival!

Two powerful dragon monsters clashed with each other, and in the end, they were both reduced to scattered fragments!

Standing amidst the dissipating light of the Blue-Eyes White Dragon, Pegasus once again revealed a smug smile:

"After launching the attack, I will use the Spell Card - Monster Resurrection! I will revive Blue-Eyes White Dragon from the Graveyard!"

"roar--"

The powerful roar of the dragon echoed across the battlefield once again.

Blue-Eyes White Dragon

[Eight Stars]

[Light Attribute/Dragon Race]

Attack/Defense: 3000/2500

Looking at You Shuo, Pegasus chuckled, "Horus Black Flame Dragon Lv8 is a monster that cannot be resurrected through Monster Resurrection, which means you've already used up this card's only chance to appear."

"Therefore, in the subsequent duels, the troublesome Black Flame Dragon will no longer be among the cards that can limit Toon Kingdom~"

"You Shuo Boy~ After activating the Combo of Left Arm Compensation and High-Speed ​​Chanting, you not only have a scarce hand of cards, but you also can't activate any Spell Cards next turn~"

"Originally, I wanted to have some friendly fun with you guys~ but since you're taking it so seriously, there's no need to hold back~"

"Continuous Magic Card activated—Toon Kingdom!!"

"Under this card's effect, all monsters on my field will transform into invincible Toon forms!!"

"You Shuo Boy~"

"At this moment, you will face a Blue-Eyes Cartoon Dragon that combines cuteness and power!!!"

Blue-Eyes Toon Dragon...

Attack power of three thousand...

While continuing to have the card spirits block Pegasus's mind-reading ability, You Shuo calmly pondered the situation.

You currently have one monster card in your hand and one face-down card left over from the last turn on the field.

Although that face-down card is a spell card and cannot be activated this turn, the effect of High Speed ​​Incantation will disappear when Pegasus's turn begins.

We should have no problem defending against this guy's next attack.

"Defense Position Summon - Demon Beast Spirit!"

"Round over!"

【Demon Beast Spirit】

【Seven Stars】

[Dark Attribute/Demon Race]

Attack/Defense: 2600/1900

Pegasus closed his eyes, recalling the information he had received through the Millennium Eye.

The last time he used his mind to probe You Shuo, he saw the combo that summoned the Black Flame Dragon of Horus and the cards in You Shuo's hand.

After activating Pot of Greed, Yu Shuo's hand consisted of: Foolish Burial, Level Adjustment, Left Arm Compensation, High Speed ​​Chant, Forced Transfer, Attack Nullification, and Forbidden Cloth.

At first, Pegasus thought that after Yushuo forcibly summoned the Black Flame Dragon of Horus, he would definitely try his best to protect the monster.

Therefore, the most likely outcome of Yu Shuo's three face-down cards at that time was: attack nullification, high-speed chanting, and forbidden Saint Cloth.

But to his surprise, You Shuo actually chose to place the Compensation, High-Speed ​​Chanting, and an unknown card on his left wrist.

When he tried to use Mind Reading again, You Shuo's inner world was already guarded by countless frog spirits.

Judging from the result of Horus Black Dragon and Blue-Eyes White Dragon being destroyed together in the last round, Yu Shuo did not expect that Blue-Eyes White Dragon was in his deck, so he did not expect that he would destroy Black Dragon by battle.

Therefore, the mysterious face-down card on the field of Yushuo was not rendered powerless, otherwise Black Flame Dragon would not have been destroyed by Blue-Eyes White Dragon in battle. So the card that could stop the attack should have been banished from the duel by the Left Arm's Compensation.

Based on the information above, it can be inferred that You Shuo's only face-down card at this time is likely either a forced transfer or one of the forbidden Saint Cloths.

Since Yu Shuo was convinced that he had no monster with attack power that could surpass Horus the Black Flame Dragon, he would definitely try to find a way to counter the ability to destroy effects.

and so……

At this moment, the only face-down card on You Shuo Boy's field must be "Forbidden Cloth"!

Chapter Ninety-Three: Cartoon Kingdom

As for why You Shuo didn't use this card when the Dragon's Sealing Pot was activated?

The reason is very simple: the forbidden Cloths only prevent monsters from being destroyed by effects and from becoming targets of effects, while the activation of the Dragon Seal Jar targets all Dragon monsters on the field and does not select a target at all.

Even though You Shuo activated the forbidden Saint Cloth at that time, he could not change the result of Horus' Black Flame Dragon being sealed. Therefore, he chose to use the compensation of his left arm and a high-speed chanting combo to break the Dragon Clan's sealing pot.

"Hmph~ You Shuo Boy~" Pegasus revealed a smug smile, "You Shuo Boy~"

"Your final card is undoubtedly a forbidden Saint Cloth!"

"You thought that, protected by that card, I couldn't activate any effects on the Demon Beast Spirit, and therefore couldn't harm you by changing its form to start a battle or directly destroying it through its effects~"

"But~ have you forgotten that I have a Continuous Trap Card on my field - Blood Sacrifice~"

"As long as this card is on the field, both duelists can make an extra Normal Summon by paying 500 LP!"

"I now have three monsters on my field. If I summon two more monsters this turn, I can launch a full-scale attack on you!"

"And with your forbidden Saint Cloth, you are utterly powerless to stop my onslaught~"

"Looks like the duel's going to end rather abruptly, You Shuo Boy~"

Ultimately, it was your own cleverness that got you into this mess.

"My turn~ Draw a card!"

"Attack signal summons ~Mermaid~"

"Under the effects of the Cartoon Kingdom, she will transform into an adorable cartoon mermaid~"

A flash of light appeared, and a large, pale blue seashell floated out of the card. The seashell gently opened, revealing a lovely mermaid princess smiling as she held a bow and arrow in her arms.

Cartoon Mermaid

【Four stars】

[Water Attribute/Aquarium]

Attack/Defense: 1400/1500

Pegasus waved his arm and chuckled, "Activate Blood Compensation again, pay 500 LP, and summon an additional one~"

"Cartoon twin spirits ~also an attack symbol~"

As the stage lights shone down, two elven girls dressed in gorgeous gowns gracefully stepped out of the cards.

【Cartoon Twin Spirits】

【Four stars】

[Earth Attribute/Mage Race]

Attack/Defense: 1900/900

"Hehehe~" Pegasus chuckled smugly, "That's enough~ You Shuo Boy~"

"Change the Cartoon Pot Demon and Cartoon Dark Rabbit to attack stance!"

"Next, a full-scale attack will be launched by five monsters!"

"And your forbidden holy armor can't change anything!!"

"Go!! Cute cartoon monsters!!"

However, after Pegasus declared his all-out attack, the dazzling attack effects did not appear on the field...

"What?" Pegasus was taken aback. "Why is this happening? Is there something wrong with the dueling ring?"

You Shuo smiled slightly and revealed the only card he had. It turned out that it was not the forbidden Saint Cloth, but a forced transfer!

"No, Pegasus, the dueling arena is fine; it's your deduction that's wrong." You Shuo played the spell card that surprised everyone. "Before you can change the battle position of Pot Demon and Dark Rabbit, I activate the spell card - Forced Transfer!"

"Under the effect of this card, both players must permanently exchange control of one monster they control, and the monster exchanged cannot change its battle position this turn!"

"My Fiend Spirit is in Defense Position. No matter which monster you choose to trade with me, the Fiend Spirit that is in Defense Position and cannot change its form will become a monster on your field!"

"According to the rules of Duel Kingdom, the condition for launching a total attack is that you have five attack-position monsters on your field. The existence of Devil Zoa means that you only have four attack-position monsters on your field, so your declared total attack cannot be established at all!"

"Furthermore, because I activated this card before you changed the position of the Pot Demon, even if you give me the Pot Demon with the lowest attack and then attack with Blue-Eyes White Dragon, I will not take any battle damage since the Pot Demon is in defense position!"

"Pegasus, now choose the monster you wish to exchange for the Demon Beast Spirit!"

"But no matter what choice you make, it's impossible for you to defeat me in this one round!!"

"Funny!" Pegasus slammed his hands on the table in front of him, utterly bewildered. "Why?! Why didn't you set the card to Forbidden Cloth?! Aren't you worried that Horus the Black Dragon's effect will destroy it?!"

You Shuo smiled faintly: "No, compared to that, I'm more worried that you will take away the Black Flame Dragon of Horus, so I made two preparations."

"One method is to use the compensation of the left arm and high-speed chanting to activate a trap from the deck and destroy the Dragon's Sealed Pot!"

"Another method is to use those two cards to activate the Spell Card 'Mental Manipulation' from your deck, temporarily gaining control of your Dark Rabbit, and then using Forced Transfer to take over the only Pot Demon on your field!"

"The monsters summoned by the Pot Demon from the Dragon's Sealing Pot will be controlled by the Pot Demon's controller. So as long as I obtain the Pot Demon, even if the Dragon's Sealing Pot still exists, the Black Flame Dragon of Horus will still be my monster!"

“Pagodas, your combo against Horus the Black Dragon must consist of both Dragon Jar and Jar Demon, and my two preparations are precisely designed to target those two cards!”

"Pegasus, this is the possibility that exists between cards. Even if you knew all the cards in my hand, you couldn't immediately calculate all the possibilities!"

"Stop wasting time, the forced transfer has already been activated!!"

"Choose a monster to trade with the Demon Beast Spirit!!!"

At this moment, Pegasus's face was extremely ugly. He coldly shouted, "But this is all just a ridiculous trick! Since the demon beast spirit has become my monster, it will also become an invincible cartoon monster!"

"I can't defeat you this round, but I can launch a full-scale attack next round!"

"I choose to trade my Attack-position Totoro Twins for it, and then Blue-Eyes Totoro attacks it!!"

"Cartoon-style burst beam!!!"

Chapter Ninety-Four: The Ultimate Shift Between Offense and Defense!

"boom-"

Colorful vortex dragon breath surged out, and even in its cute cartoon form, the Blue-Eyes White Dragon's fighting power did not decrease in the slightest!

However, at this moment, Jonouchi couldn't help but feel puzzled by the situation on the field: "Wait! The twin spirits that Pegasus gave to Yushuo are also in cartoon form?! Does this mean that Pegasus's attack was completely ineffective?!"

The Cartoon Kingdom card on the Pegasus board is quite special; it's a unique animated version specific to our time, and the effect is roughly as follows:

When this card is activated, transform all monsters on your field into Toon forms. While this card is on the field, all monsters that appear on your field are transformed into Toon forms. Toon monsters cannot be destroyed by card effects; they can only be destroyed by battle. When this card is destroyed, destroy all Toon monsters on the field.

In other words, all monsters that have been transformed into cartoon forms by the Cartoon Kingdom will retain this special form as long as they do not leave the field, even if control is transferred.

However, things didn't go as Joey Wheeler had anticipated. Since Toon Monsters can be destroyed in battle, even if the Twin Spirits transformed into Toon forms, they would still be defeated by Blue-Eyes Toon Dragon.

"Bang!"

The card shattered, and a staggering 1100 combat damage was deducted from You Shuo's LP.

Despite the significant damage, this is already a very good result.
