Chapter 1564: The Ultimate Jade God

"Come to my side, [Ultimate Gem God-Rainbow Dragon]!"

At John's call, the [Ultimate Gem God - Rainbow Dragon], which looked similar but different from the [Ultimate Gem Beast - Rainbow Dragon], did appear above his head, but it only appeared for a moment and soon flew back into the card in John's hand.

"Huh? I thought you had successfully summoned the [Ultimate Gem God - Rainbow Dragon], why is it back in your hand?"

Facing Judai's question, John spread his hands helplessly: "There's nothing I can do. After all, the effect of [Ultimate Gemmon - Rainbow Dragon] is written like this. Just being able to Special Summon a [Gemmon] from the deck with its effect negated is already amazing, and then I can also add [Ultimate Gem God - Rainbow Dragon] to my hand."

"It seems so. If it can be transformed into two monsters unconditionally, [Ultimate Gemmon-Rainbow Dragon] should be your trump card, John, instead of [Ultimate Gem God-Rainbow Dragon]." Judai thought about it and nodded, "However, since [Ultimate Gem God-Rainbow Dragon] has been added to the hand, although I haven't seen its level, I think its level should not be low. After all, [Ultimate Gemmon-Rainbow Dragon] is already level 8☆."

"The summoning of a higher-level monster always requires a sacrifice, right? John, which monster on the field would you like to release as a sacrifice?"

[John Anderson: 4000LP, hand 5→6→7]

[Gemmon-Rubymon] [ATK 300]

[Gem Beast - Jade Pegasus] [ATK 1800]

[Gem Beast - Jade Tiger] [ATK 1600]

[Thunder King - Harmon] [ATK4000→2000]

[Jade Beast-Jade Turtle] [DEF2000]

Backfield: [Gemmon - Cobalt Spike Eagle] [Gemmon - Amber Mammoth] [Gem Tree] [Gem Counter 1→2]

Venue: [Ancient Rainbow City-Rainbow Ruins]

But after hearing Judai's words, John shook his head and said, "No, I've already said that the [Gemmons] are my family. There is no monster in my deck that needs to be summoned. Even [Ultimate Gemmon-Rainbow Dragon] was Special Summoned by the effect of [Golden Jade Bar], right?"

"This trump card I just completed - [Ultimate Gem God - Rainbow Dragon] is a special type of monster, a 'Special Summon Monster'. I can't Normal Summon it, but if its summoning conditions are met, I can Special Summon it directly from my hand. Now I'm going to activate the effect of [Gem Tree] and send it to the Graveyard. It's a bit wasteful, but there's no point in not using the card when it should be used."

After a pause, John took out a card retrieved from the Duel Disk, "From my deck, place the last [Gemmon - Amethyst Cat] face-up in my Magic Trap Zone as a Continuous Magic Card!"

"Then, John, before the number of [Gem Beasts] in your backfield is restored to three, I will also use up the cards in the backfield first." Judai pressed the button to activate the cover card and said, "Chain [Gem Tree], the quick attack magic card [Masked Transformation] is activated!"

Following the previous [Masked Transformation] Type 2, Judai played another card which was the original [Masked Transformation] "Type 1". As the card was activated, large pieces of rock appeared around the [E·hero Solid Man] on his field and wrapped it up.

"Just like [Masked Transformation Type 2], [Masked Transformation] is a quick-play magic card used exclusively for [M·hero] to appear on the field. It can only be activated by targeting a [Hero] monster on my field, confirming its attributes and sending it to the Graveyard, and then Special Summoning a [M·hero] with the same attributes from my Fusion Deck."

After a pause, Judai waved his hand, "I sent the Earth attribute [E-hero Solid Man] on my field to the graveyard with the effect of [Masked Change], and summoned her from my fusion deck!"

"When evil appears, put on your iron armor and slash the evil with your earth-shattering power!"

"Mask-Change! Level 8☆!"

"The shining crystal hero - [M Hero Diamond]!"

[M·hero Treasure Diamond] [8☆/land]

[Warrior/Fusion/Effect]

[2800/3000]

Seeing the appearance of the Tenth Generation's [M·hero Diamond], John couldn't help but take a closer look: "There are so many diamonds on his body. Rounding it off, isn't this the [Hero] of [Gem]!"

"Well, we can't let Juudai's cards take over the stage. Please respond to me again, Amethyst!"

On John's field, [Gemmon - Amethyst Cat] appeared in the magic trap area from the deck in the form of amethyst. The eleven positions on John's field, including the field area, were finally squeezed to only the last two magic trap areas available. But at the same time, John finally gathered the seven [Gemmon]s on the field again!

"Ada! They are finally all together again!" John said excitedly as he looked at all the [Gem Beasts] on his field. At the same time, a card in his hand also lit up. Needless to say, Judai could guess that the card in his hand must be the [Ultimate Gem God - Rainbow Dragon] that he had retrieved before.

However, it wasn't just John's cards that lit up, there was also light in Judai's graveyard.

"When [E. Hero Solid] is sent from the Monster Zone to the Graveyard by the effect of a Spell Card, I can activate its effect targeting a [Hero] monster in my Graveyard and Special Summon it to my field in Defense Position."

"The monster I want to special summon is this one——[E·hero Skyman]!"

John was also stunned when he heard the card name called out by Judai: "【E·hero Skyman】? When did you send that card to the cemetery, Judai?"

And Judai just pointed at [M.hero Gust of Wind] on his field: "John, what do you guess?"

Glancing at [M·hero Gust], John remembered that when [Masked Transformation Type 2] was activated, Judai did send a card to the graveyard. Was it [E·hero Skyman]?

"[E·hero Skyman] will be Special Summoned to my field in Defense Position, but since its attributes overlap with [M·hero Gust of Wind], both are wind attributes, the attack power bonus provided by [E·hero Sunrise] will not increase." [Yuki Judai: 5500 LP, 1 card in hand]

【E·hero Sunrise Man】【ATK3100】

[M. Hero Gust][ATK2800]

[M Hero Diamond] [ATK2800→3400]

[E·hero Skyman] [1800/300→2400/300]

Backcourt: [Cover]

After a pause, Judai pointed at the [E·hero Skyman] on his field and said, "But! When [E·hero Skyman] is successfully Special Summoned, I can choose one of his effects to activate!"

"I can add a [Hero] monster from my deck to my hand, or I can select and destroy a Spell/Trap Card on the field. I choose to activate the latter, and the number of Spell/Trap Cards that [E·hero Skyman] can destroy depends on the number of other [Hero] monsters on my field besides [E·hero Skyman]!"

[E·hero Sunrise], [M·hero Gust], and [M·hero Diamond]. There are three [Hero] on the Judai field except [E·hero Skyman], so there are a total of three Magic and Trap Cards that he can destroy!

And what a coincidence - John has exactly three [Gemmon] cards on the backfield at this moment!

"Although I really want to see the arrival of [Ultimate Gem God - Rainbow Dragon], as a duelist, I can't deliberately not use it when there is a way to prevent it from coming, and not use my full strength in the duel." Judai looked at John seriously and ordered, "Blinger Fan! Destroy all the cards on John's backfield, [E·hero Skyman]!"

A storm rose from the ground, and a huge tornado was created by [E·hero Skyman] with the cooperation of other [Hero]s, and rolled towards John's backcourt. Now that he had finally gathered all seven [Gemmon] on the field again, Judai scattered them again!

When the strong wind dissipated, all the [Gem Beasts] on John's backcourt had disappeared, and the [Ancient City of Rainbow - Rainbow Ruins] that had just recovered some of its effects lost its power again, even more thoroughly than before. This time it even lost its resistance to being destroyed by effects.

However, seeing this, John was not discouraged. Instead, he smiled and said, "No matter how much I look forward to it, it will not diminish my honor as a duelist. Duel with you is so fun, Juudai. That's how it should be. A wonderful duel that makes me feel relaxed and happy should be like this. Only the souls of duelists that collide fiercely like this can complete the stage for the [Ultimate Gem God-Rainbow Dragon] to descend!"

"This rainbow light is not the continuation of the rule of the ancient empire thousands of years ago, but a bridge of communication that brings together the cards that have been scattered for many years and builds a bridge of communication between the hearts! It cannot be blocked by the world, the field or the cemetery!"

John said, taking out a card, "Activate the Continuous Magic Card [Bridge of Heart]!"

John solemnly played a card and said, "The first effect of this card allows me to summon a [Gem Beast] in addition to the Normal Summon, but now I want to use its second effect - which can only be activated during my Main Phase, destroying the [Gem Beast] in my hand and on the field, and adding a [Gem] Spell Trap Card from my deck to my hand!"

"Emerald, you should go to the backcourt and take a rest first." Looking at the [Jade Beast - Jade Turtle], John took out another card, "Then, I will add this [Jade God Awakening] from the deck to my hand!"

[John Anderson: 4000LP, hand 7→6→7]

As John showed the card, Judai saw the image of the [Ultimate Gem God - Rainbow Dragon] with its wings spread out moving on the card image and finally freezing. The background behind it was also fixed, just in time to capture a part of the Duel Academy teaching building. It can be seen that this card was also completed with the awakening of John's [Ultimate Gem God - Rainbow Dragon]. Until just now, even the card image was blank.

After taking a look at the cards he added to his hand, John looked at his field again. In the magic trap area, the [Jade Beast - Jade Turtle] turned into emerald and stayed, but the [Bridge of Heart] card lit up.

"After [Gemmon - Jade Turtle] was destroyed in the Monster Zone, it was placed in my Magic Trap Zone as a Continuous Magic Card. Because it left the field, [Gemmon - Jade Turtle], which was originally invalidated by [Ultra Gemmon - Rainbow Dragon], also regained its power." After a pause, John pointed to the Judai field, "But more importantly, when the [Gemmon] card is placed in my Magic Trap Zone, the third effect of [Bridge of Hearts]!"

"Target a card on your opponent's field! Return that card and this card to their owner's hand!"

"The same effect as [M. Hero Gust]? What a coincidence, it seems that even fate is making your [Gemmon] and my [Hero] keep showing similarities." Judai raised the duel disk, "So, John, which card of mine do you want to return to your hand?"

"【E·hero Sunrise】? 【M·hero Gust】, 【M·hero Diamond】 or 【E·hero Skyman】?"

Hearing Judai's question, John said without hesitation: "Of course - it's your backfield cover card, Judai! What if that card is an attack trap like [Holy Shield - Mirror Power -] or a summon trap like [Pitfall]?"

"Why do you think that, John? Did I set so many traps?" As he spoke, Judai himself became a little unconfident, because after thinking about it, he found that there seemed to be a lot of trap cards in his deck, so that he often drew trap cards - but, wasn't this what Mr. Hayato taught him? He had been dueling like this since he was a child, and what was wrong with using trap cards to protect [Hero]?

My heart and my actions are as clear as a mirror, and everything I do is just!

After realizing this, Judai picked up the cover card on his backfield and said confidently, "Look, my last card is clearly not a trap card!"

However, John took a look at Judai's card and couldn't help but complain: "I suddenly wish that card was a trap card. After all, Judai, you actually put [Miracle Fusion] on the backfield, trying to use it to trick a [Whirlwind]? Isn't this even more sinister than a heavy trap!"

"Don't worry about anything else for now. Just tell me whether my decision is wise or not." Judai picked up the [Miracle Fusion] card and added it to his hand, proudly putting his hands on his hips, "I didn't expect that I could actually trick you, John, into using the [Bridge of Heart]."

"Because you still have a card in your hand, Judai, I subconsciously thought that was the [Miracle Fusion]. Because [Rainbow Dragon] is coming soon, I didn't perform well." After a brief self-examination, John patted his cheek and regrouped, "But no matter what, at least a danger has been eliminated - and next, this card that you and I have been looking forward to for a long time, Judai, will make its grand appearance!"

"Please lend me your strength, everyone!"

After taking back the [Heart Bridge] card, John raised the card in his hand that had been lit for a long time and shouted, "If there are seven types of [Gem Beasts] on my field or in my graveyard, Special Summon this card from my hand!"

"The bonds that gather together will become a bridge of miracles, and a rainbow of seven colors will become a shining road! The light of hope will bloom, and the light that leads the world will shine here!"

"Special Summon, Level 10☆!!"

"Awaken! [Ultimate Gem God-Rainbow Dragon]!!!"

Valentine's Day is here, happy everyone, whether you have a lover or not

Speaking of Rainbow Dragon, in the original work, in order to make John, who only appeared in the third year, quickly feel like the second male lead, the Gem Beast deck has a lot of effects that can counter Hero, but the most obvious one is that the tenth generation has four letter cards H, E, R, O and a hero flash, and John also has a set of G, E, M and the combination of "GEM"

The most common problem is that GEM is the field of Gem-Knight. The reason is probably that if Gemmon wants to play letters, it has to be "Crystal", and there are too many letters.

Also, I'm going to take a day off tomorrow. Don't ask if it's because of Valentine's Day. If you ask, I'm going to play Civilization 7 (laughs
