Chapter 1563 Say Goodbye to Your Rainbow Dragon!

"Ahem, let's skip the previous topic for now." John chose to skip the embarrassing question about the [Rainbow Dragon] slate and looked at the six cards in his hand and said, "But no matter what, I have now completed the defense arrangement with [Ancient Rainbow City - Rainbow Ruins]."

"Now that I have three or more [Gemmon] cards in my backfield, I don't know what the cover cards in your backfield are, but I can be sure that they no longer have a chance to activate, because I already have three [Gemmon] on the field that can be used to negate them."

"Because this effect only requires three [Gem Beasts], I will use a [Rare Value] first, send a random [Gem Beast] in my Magic Trap Zone to the Graveyard, and draw two cards from the deck."

A jade stone on John's backcourt shattered, which was the green jade representing [Jade Beast - Jade Turtle]. John took out two cards from it and solemnly put the [Jade Beast - Jade Turtle] card into the graveyard for the time being.

"But John, if you use all your [Gemmon] to stop me from activating Spell and Trap Cards, how are you going to win?" Judai tilted his head, "I have powerful monsters like [E-hero Sunrise] on my field."

"There's a saying that goes 'soldier versus soldier, general versus general'. Against your powerful [E·hero], Judai, it would be better to use this card, right?"

John said, showing a card in his hand, "Send all three face-up Continuous Magic Cards on my field to the Graveyard, and Special Summon them!"

“The hidden demon god who knows the past and the future and plays with people’s hearts! The celestial phenomenon that controls thunder and ice has descended here - [Thunder King - Harmon]!”

The thunder from the sky crashed down to the ground, shattering the ice that had condensed into a large block. From the ice chips in the sky, a dark yellow figure descended behind John. The thin bony wings opened and fluttered, shaking off bits of ice chips.

The Ultimate Gem God - Harmon (confirmed), is here!

【Thunder Emperor - Harmon】【10☆/Light】

[Thunder Tribe/Special Summon/Effect]

[4000/4000]

Many years ago, Yami Bakuryo used the three phantom demon stone slabs that had been collected by Daitoku-ji at that time to copy and create the "Three Phantom Demons" cards, intending to use them in the Duel City to prevent someone from collecting the "Three Phantom Gods", but ended up failing and all the cards were delivered to Hayato.

Although An Moliang, who made the three "Phantom Demon" cards at that time, was the will of the Dark Evil God, he was surprisingly kind. He didn't even think of sacrificing other people's lives to make the more powerful "Three Phantom Demon" cards. The main reason was that the power he could release alone was enough to complete the "Three Phantom Demon" cards with the complete effect with the support of the stone slab.

Later, Kagemaru was almost there. With the power of "Darkness" and the energy collected by the "Seven Spirits Release Gate" on the Duel Academy Island for five years, he barely made three "Three Phantom Magic" cards through a duel with Hayato. Although the effects were still the original, the card illustrations were much worse and were far less detailed than the authentic ones in Hayato's hands.

After defeating Kagemaru, as an excellent young man with good qualities who is thrifty and cannot tolerate extravagance and waste, Hayato naturally displayed the virtue of thriftiness, took back several cards from Kagemaru and remade them. At this moment, the [Thunder King - Harmon] that John played was made based on those cards.

Although there is no real "Phantom Demon" boarding, it can barely be regarded as an outlet for the "Phantom Demon" to release its power. And it is precisely because there is no real "Phantom Demon" boarding that John does not need to be too cautious when using this [Thunder King-Harmon], and there is no risk of affecting the duel turning into a dark game.

In terms of the card illustration, Hayato reset it into a beautiful real card version illustration, but the effect was also reduced to a real card version effect because it was stripped of its magic, and it no longer has the common resistance of the "Phantom Demons".

"The cards I sent to the graveyard were [Gemmon - Amethyst Cat], [Gemmon - Amber Mammoth], and [Gemmon - Cobalt Spire Eagle]. When [Gemmon] is in my backfield, it is used as a continuous magic card. To some extent, the compatibility of [Thunder King - Hamon] and [Gemmon] deck is perfect."

"But it's also because the number of [Gemmon] has decreased that the effect of [Ancient City of Rainbow - Rainbow Ruins] has completely disappeared." After sending his [Gemmon] to the grave, John couldn't help but miss his family. "Then, the magic card [Pot of Greed] returns the five monster cards in my graveyard - [Proliferated G], [Gemmon - Jade Turtle], [Gemmon - Amethyst Cat], [Gemmon - Amber Mammoth], and [Gemmon - Cobalt Spike Eagle] to the deck and shuffle them. I draw two cards from the deck."

"Next, I will activate my second continuous magic card, [Gem Tree], and then activate this equipment magic card, [Golden Jade Strip]!"

The Super Expansion Card that John had taken out in the duel with France reappeared, and two more [Gem Beasts] that had just returned to his deck returned to the field. At the same time, a card in John's hand also lit up with seven colors of rainbow light.

"From my deck, I place [Gemmon - Cobalt Spike Eagle] and [Gemmon - Amber Mammoth] face-up as Continuous Magic Cards in my Magic Trap Zone, then I select a [Gemmon] in my hand with a different card name and Special Summon it, and equip it with [Golden Jade Strip]."

"And the one I want to special summon is this one——【Ultimate Gem Beast-Rainbow Dragon】!"

"【Rainbow Dragon】? Can it be done so soon?" Judai said with some surprise, because how long had the duel between John and him just begun?

"It seems that because the duel between you and me was too refreshing, the energy released by the [Gem Beasts] was almost unprecedented, which greatly advanced the progress of the [Rainbow Dragon]'s awakening. In addition, the already activated [Thunder King-Harmon] is also providing help." John said, raising his hand and said, "Then - let the seven kinds of light converge here and build a bridge of hope and miracles, Wagatamashi!"

"Special Summon, [Ultimate Gem Beast - Rainbow Dragon]!"

A silver-white dragon with a pair of angel-like wings on its back descended on the field, surrounded by the [Gem Beasts] that John summoned from the deck.

[Ultimate Gem Beast - Rainbow Dragon] (Golden Jade Bar) [8☆/Light]

【Dragon/Effect】

[3000/0]

Although it can be seen with the naked eye that the current [Ultimate Gem Beast - Rainbow Dragon] is still in an incomplete state, its wings are not strong enough, the scales on its body have not been completely formed, and even the gems inlaid on its body are not bright enough and are still a little dim. Compared with the expected [Ultimate Gem God], the current [Ultimate Gem Beast - Rainbow Dragon] can only be regarded as a "newborn" form.

However, this was still enough to make John's heart burn with joy, and Judai also felt a surge of excitement!

After all, they witnessed with their own eyes a card elf awakening from its ancient slumber, and the effect area of ​​[Ultimate Gem Beast - Rainbow Dragon], which originally had no words written on it, was now filled with words little by little, and the card was completely completed at this moment!

John and Judai looked at each other, not like rivals who were gambling on each other's qualification to continue to participate in the "Second World Martial Arts Tournament", and said in unison: "Ultimate Gem Beast-Rainbow Dragon, Gotcha!"

"It's worth it even if I lose the duel now to see the rare scene of the true birth of [Ultimate Gem Beast - Rainbow Dragon]!"

Hearing Judai's classic bloodthirsty speech, John smiled and said, "But if Judai really loses like that, you won't be happy."

"John, you really know me very well, because I still want to see what kind of exciting and interesting duel we can have if we continue to fight. Although the birth of [Ultimate Gem Beast-Rainbow Dragon] alone has already made me very satisfied, I am still greedily craving for more, such as - [Ultimate Gem God-Rainbow Dragon]!"

Judai raised his lips, "John, I'm doing something greedy, come and try to stop me!"

"Well, then you just wait and see, Judai!" Looking at his full monster zone and the backcourt with one spot left, John was not in a hurry to play more cards, but instead reminded, "Because [Golden Jade Strip] placed [Gemmon - Cobalt Spike Eagle] and [Gemmon - Amber Mammoth] as face-up Continuous Magic Cards in my Magic Trap Zone, the [Gem Counter] on [Gem Tree] increased by one."

"We just used up all the [Gem Beasts] in the backfield, and now we're about to gather three [Gem Beasts] in the backfield?" Seeing this, Judai pressed the button to activate the cover card before John activated the first-speed effect of [Gem Tree] and said, "Then I'll take this opportunity to activate one of the covered cards first!"

"Quick-Play Spell Card [Masked Transformation Type 2]! Discard one of my hand cards and target a face-up monster on my field. Send that monster to the Graveyard, and Special Summon a [M·hero] monster with a higher Level than that monster and the same Attributes as [Masked Transformation] from my Fusion Deck!"

Facing John who was holding the old [Gemmon] deck, Judai pulled out [M·hero] without holding back, "The monster I chose is the wind attribute [N·Sky Hummingbird]! Although they don't have a [Hero] field, they are also space heroes from the 'New Space'!"

After a pause, Judai waved his hand and shouted, "Form-Change! Cyclone!"

"Black haze rolls, green wind rolls! Gain the will of steel and the speed of light, and evolve!"

"Special Summon, Level 6☆!" A rising gust of wind surrounded Judai, and he raised the card in his hand and shouted the card's name, "Attack! [M·hero Gust]!"

The black combat suit was inlaid with dark green armor and light green color separation, which made the overall look not too monotonous. The wind-like hero also had a red scarf around his neck, with the extra ends fluttering in the wind. No one could tell that he had just transformed from [N·Sky Hummingbird].

[M·hero Gust][6☆/Wind]

[Warrior/Fusion/Effect]

[2200/1800]

Although [N·Sky Hummingbird] left the Judai field, the [M·hero Gust] that replaced him is also a wind-attribute monster. The attack power bonus provided by [E·hero Sunrise] remains 600 points without change, increasing the attack power of [M·hero Gust] to 2800 points.

【E·hero Sunrise Man】【ATK3100】

[M. Hero Gust][ATK2200→2800]

【E·hero Solid State Hero】【ATK1900】

Backcourt: [Cover] x2

Of course, Judai is not without [M·hero] with higher attack power to choose from, such as [M·hero Kamikaze] which he used in the duel with Ed before. Not only will it not be destroyed by battle, but it can also limit the opponent to attack with only one monster during the battle phase. In terms of defensive performance, it far exceeds [M·hero Gust of Wind], and is suitable for resisting attacks from [Ultimate Gem God, I mean [Thunder King - Hamon] with an attack power of up to 4000 points and [Ultimate Gem Beast - Rainbow Dragon] with an attack power of 3000 points.

However, the key to winning a duel does not lie in the attack power of the cards, but rather the compatibility between the cards.

For example, if John always has three or more [Gemmon] in the backfield, Judai won't be able to activate any of his face-up cards in front of him who has enough [Gemmon] monsters on the field. However, while [Ancient City of Rainbow - Rainbow Ruins] has not yet recovered its suppression effect on Magic and Trap Cards, Judai decisively activated [Masked Transformation] to Special Summon [M. Hero Gust]. The purpose is -

It is different from the defensive [M·hero Kamikaze] of the same attribute, which has a strong ability to resist monster attacks, and has an offensive effect that is extremely restraining against Spell and Trap Cards!

"When you Special Summon [M. Hero Gust], you can activate its effect by targeting a face-up monster on your opponent's field, and halve that monster's attack power. I chose [Thunder King - Harmon]."

After a pause, Judai linked up with another effect of [M·hero Gust], "And during both turns, pay 500 Life Points and target a Spell/Trap Card on the opponent's field to activate the second effect of [M·hero Gust]! Return the target card to your hand!"

[Yujo Judai: 6000 → 5500 LP, 1 cards in hand]

The ability to bounce back cards to the hand instead of destroying or sending them to the graveyard is the most powerful strength of [M. Hero Gust]. However, although this effect can effectively restrain [Rainbow Ancient City - Rainbow Ruins] which is resistant to being destroyed by the effect, it is meaningless to bounce it back to John's hand.

The same goes for the [Gem Beasts] as continuous magic cards. If one card is missing, John can quickly replenish it with the [Gem Tree] present. And the [Gem Tree] that only has one [Gem Counter] is just making room for John. In this case, the most suitable card to be bounced back by Judai's effect is——

"【Golden Code and Jade Rule】!?" John showed a surprised expression when he saw that the equipment magic card on his backfield was chosen by Judai.

"The attack power of [Thunder King - Harmon] will soon be reduced to 2000 points. It is [Ultimate Gemmon - Rainbow Dragon] with 3000 attack points that is still a big pressure for me." Judai explained, "I heard it clearly when we were fighting just now, John. When [Golden Jade Bar] leaves the field, the monster equipped with it will also be destroyed, right?"

“Although it’s a bit regrettable to let it retire now, John, say goodbye to your Rainbow Dragon!”

[M·hero Gust] summoned a gust of strong wind, blowing sand and rocks everywhere. The sandstorm seemed to completely cover the Colosseum where the two were at the moment. In this strong wind, the power of [Thunder King - Harmon] shrank. Not only could he not release the "thunder" in his name, even his best frost attack was much weaker.

But more importantly, accompanied by the sound of breaking glass, the [Golden Jade Bar] card was blown back to John's hand by the storm. The [Golden Jade Bar], which had the restriction of "only one card name can be activated per turn", could not be activated again even after it returned to John's hand. Moreover, the [Ultimate Gem Beast - Rainbow Dragon] that appeared with the [Golden Jade Bar] also roared softly, became transparent and shattered into diamond stardust.

However, even Juudai had not expected that, the moment after [Ultimate Gem Beast - Rainbow Dragon] was shattered, the rainbow light that had been accumulated in his body seemed to take the opportunity to break through the shackles and restraints, rising into the air and turning into a rainbow beam of light! ?

"Oh, what a mistake. Why didn't I think that [Ultimate Gemmon] was also a [Gemmon]?" Judai said with some annoyance, "The destroyed [Ultimate Gemmon-Rainbow Dragon] appeared in the backfield as a continuous magic card like the other [Gemmon]?"

"Because of your interaction, Judai, another [Gem Indicator] has been added to my [Gem Tree], but that's not all! What's more important is that I saw it, Judai!"

[Gem Tree] [Gem Counter 1→2]

Looking at the Continuous Magic Card transformed from [Ultimate Gem Beast - Rainbow Dragon] on his backcourt - the pillar of light that reached the sky, John's cheeks flushed slightly due to excessive excitement, "I see the right position! The rainbow bridge leading to the other side!"

"Years of accumulated power awakened [Ultimate Gem Beast - Rainbow Dragon], and then [Thunder King - Harmon] brought it enough energy to activate its second effect of turning it into a continuous magic card. Finally, under the pressure of [M·hero Gust], its third effect was also completed!"

"I banish the Continuous Magic Card [Ultimate Gem Beast - Rainbow Dragon], activate its third effect, and Special Summon a [Gem Beast] with a level 4☆ or lower from my deck with its effect negated, and add this card from my deck to my hand!"

"【Hojomon】, 【Ultimate Hojomon】, and" reaching into the rainbow-like beam of light, John suddenly pulled out the card, "Draw!"

Imitating a certain president's floor card drawing, John performed a light column card drawing for the ten representatives on the spot, and suddenly pulled out a card from the dissipated rainbow light - a card image was very similar to [Ultimate Gemmon - Rainbow Dragon], but one looked like a mature stage and the other looked like a complete form!

"You traveled through time and space, and came to my side with all your strength! The stage for you to descend is about to be completed! Wake up! Wagatamashi!!"

"【Ultimate Gem God-Rainbow Dragon】!!!"

The growing stage of the Gemmon Rainbow Dragon, the mature stage of the Gem God Rainbow Dragon, the mistakenly evolved Rainbow Dark Dragon, the perfect form of the Rainbow Bridge Dragon, and the ultimate form of the Rainbow Dragon Beyond, the Rainbow Dragon Digimon theory is established
