Chapter 1695 Like kicking a stray dog ​​to death on the roadside

"Don't even think about it!" The Shadow of Karma immediately drew one card from her remaining four cards and revealed it. "I'm chaining that monster's effect to activate the effect of this [Black Feather - Snowstrike Chinuk] card in my hand!"

"You can activate this effect by sending this card from my hand or field to the Graveyard and targeting one face-up monster on your opponent's field. If there is a DARK Synchro Monster on my field, you can also activate this effect during your opponent's turn."

Sending the card in his hand to the graveyard, Oboro no Karma took out another monster card from his Extra Deck and sent it to the graveyard as well, saying, "I send one [Blackwing] Synchro Monster from my Extra Deck—this [Blackwing Bird Trainer - Black Hawk Craftsman Joe]—to the graveyard. The targeted monster loses 700 ATK and its effects are negated until the end of this turn!"

While the attack power of [Earthbound Squid] in its defense position is not very significant, the main advantage of this card is that it can negate the effects of a targeted enemy, just like [Effect Veiler].

The wall of tentacles that had burst forth from the ground surrounding the Shadowless Wind and his monsters suddenly stopped, and the thick arms and legs began to shrink, wither, and crumble before disappearing into nothingness with the wind.

"You actually have a hand trap? You've got some skills." Hayato paused, then looked at the Continuous Spell Card [Blackwing Whirlwind] still on the back row of Shadowless Karma Wind. "But, after using so many cards with the [Blackwing Dragon] name clearly written on them, why do you claim you don't know [Blackwing Dragon]?"

"I see. The being known as 'Black Wing' in our Black Feather clan is the Black Feather Dragon you mentioned?" Hearing Hayato mention this, and considering the cards he had played so far, Oborogane no Karma realized, "But unfortunately, we do not possess the power that does not yet belong to Black Feather, otherwise there would be no need for this duel ceremony at all."

When [Blackwing - Raging Star Sword Bird] was successfully Synchro Summoned, Oboro no Karma could Special Summon any Level 4 or lower [Blackwing] monster other than a Tuner. However, with three cards left in his hand, he had a gut feeling that he shouldn't play the card in this situation, so even if he wasted the effect, it didn't matter. This gut feeling had helped him avoid being hunted by high-level monsters countless times in the past when [Blackwing] had not yet awakened the power of "Synch".

“There is a difference between Synchro Summoning and Synchro Summoning! Compared to you, who refuse to let go of the power of 'fusion' and use the so-called [Interdimensional Resonance - Synchro Fusion], we [Kuroba] are completely devoted to the power of Synchro, because this is the only way we can grasp to become stronger! This is the difference in purity between you and me!”

Hearing Oboro no Kage's words, Hayato scoffed: "Purity, what use is it?"

"But from what you're saying, is it that? Hmph, then bring it up, a further step in harmony."

"I don't need you to tell me!" A storm gathered around Oboro no Karma again, even more violently than before, almost pushing away the other [Black Feathers] behind him. In this storm, the two Synchro Monster cards on Oboro no Karma's Duel Disk seemed to lose their anchor, detaching from the disk and being swept up by the rising air currents!?

"The [Strike Blackwing - Thunder Cutter Bird] that was Synchro Summoned using [Blackwing] monster as material will be used as a Tuner. Now I will use my Level 7 ☆ Synchro Tuner monster [Strike Blackwing - Thunder Cutter Bird] and Level 5 ☆ Synchro Monster [Blackwing - Radiant Star Rage Bird] to Level Tune!"

"To meet the Synchro Material requirements, you need at least one Tuner monster plus one non-Tuner monster!"

"Level 5☆ plus Level 7☆, the total level is a whopping 12☆!?" Startled by Oboro's actions, the [Hawk Queen] watching from behind Hayato exclaimed in astonishment, "The power of Synchro has actually given birth to such a powerful being of such a high level for [Black Feather]?!"

"Dark wings, harbor the power of thunder, roar fiercely!"

"A leap to Synchro Summoning! Level 5 + 7 = 12☆!"

In the sky, beside the two Synchro Monster cards swirling in the tornado, the black-winged Silver Knight and the white-winged Black Knight stood facing each other, suddenly charging towards one another.

The moment the two touched, the body of the Synchro Tuner monster [Strike Blackwing - Thunder Cutter Bird] transformed into seven green Tuner rings, while the non-Tuner monster [Blackwing - Radiant Star Rage Bird] transformed into five shining stars. Following the direction of the airflow in the storm, the seven Tuner rings were not arranged in a straight line as in a normal Synchro Summon, but instead were arranged at equal intervals to form a larger closed ring.

And these five shining stars, which are like particle accelerators, took advantage of the storm's continuous acceleration and were restrained by the star-tuning ring to transform into a huge ring of light that almost cut off the storm. At the moment when the shining light was brewing to its extreme, it suddenly burst out!
Suddenly, everything vanished during the storm!?

"Disappeared!?" In perfect harmony, the Harpy Queen uttered a famous line that perfectly matched the situation.

"boom!"

The storm was suddenly sliced ​​horizontally by a silent slash and abruptly dissipated. The airflow, unrestrained by the storm, exploded, and a golden figure rode the raging wind of death, soaring freely and appearing in the sky!

"This is the rebirth we [Black Feather] have long awaited! It is also the limit of our power!!"

A card appeared on the duel disk, and the Shadowless Blade shouted, "Slice through—"

"【Strike Blackwing - Godly Onimaru Sword Bird】!!!"

【Strike Blackwing - Godly Onimaru Sword Bird】【12☆/Dark】

[Bird/Beast Race/Synchro/Effect]

[3000/2000]

As a Synchro Monster summoned by Synchro Summoning with [Strike Blackwing - Thunder Cutter Bird] as the lead, [Strike Blackwing - Divine Onimaru Bird] retains many design elements similar to [Strike Blackwing - Thunder Cutter Bird], such as half of its body being covered in armor and the other half being naked, and also having half of its wings modified and made metallic.

The word "Kamitachi" in its name can be translated as "thunder" in the Japanese language. As for Onimaru, it goes without saying that, just like the previous [Strike Black Feather - Sudden Rain Raikiri Sword Bird] whose name was taken from the famous sword "Raikiri", the "Onimaru" in the name of [Strike Black Feather - Kamitachi Onimaru Sword Bird] also refers to a famous sword.

—In other words, Onimaru, named after the first regent of the Kamakura Shogunate, Hojo Tokimasa, who famously beheaded a demon king in a dream, was not only a family heirloom of the Hojo clan, but also held by prominent figures such as Oda Nobunaga and Toyotomi Hideyoshi after the fall of the Hojo clan. It was even posthumously honored as a sword of immense power, earning the title "Kunitsuna" (National Treasure). And to be named after it, the [Strike Blackwing - Divine Onimaru Sword Bird] undoubtedly represents the ambition and aspirations of the [Blackwing] clan to conquer the world!
"The power to Synchro Summon with Synchro Monsters is the true reliance of us [Blackwing], and power is the reason for becoming king!" Oboro no Kara explained proudly. "[Strike Blackwing - God-Standing Onimaru Blade Bird] possesses the power to dominate the world. Not only is it unaffected by effects, but when it is Synchro Summoned using only Synchro Monsters as materials, it gains a whopping 3000 ATK during the Damage Step!"

"That's why I said that increasing attack power is meaningless in front of us [Black Feather], because no matter how much you increase your strength, your [Star Wind Wolf - Wolfra Leaf Wolf]'s attack power cap is only a mere 4000 points, while my [Strike Black Feather - Divine Onimaru Blade Bird]'s attack power can reach as high as 6000 points!"

Seeing the confident Oboro no Kage, who seemed to have already secured victory, Hayato sighed helplessly: "It doesn't even have resistance to targeting, it's just that it can't be destroyed by effects. Does such resistance really qualify it as a terminal? The reason why the main [Slash] is so arrogant is not only because it can deal double damage, but more importantly because it has a kind of pseudo-all resistance."

"And you insist on comparing attack power with [Starwind Wolf - Wolfra Leaf Wolf]? If its attack power hadn't reached 4000 points, then comparing attack power would have been worthwhile, but now that you've allowed its attack power to rise to 4000 points—" He paused, then suddenly waved his hand, "How can the light of a firefly on rotten grass compare to the bright moon in the sky?"

"Moreover, your faint radiance is not even comparable to that of a firefly, and what the [Starwind Wolf - Wolfra Leaf Wolf] is eyeing and plotting to devour is not the moon, but the blazing sun!"

"I summon [Strike Blackwing - Godly Onimaru Blade Bird] through a chain, and activate the second effect of [Starwind Wolf - Wolfra Leaf Wolf] on my field, which can only be activated if its ATK is 4000 or higher! This effect can also be activated during your opponent's turn!"

"Devour that dying sun, that final cave that has transformed into a ravenous beast!"

Since being summoned by Hayato, it has been constantly absorbing the power of its surroundings to increase its attack power. However, [Starwind Wolf - Wolfra Leaf Wolf] never intended to use that power for attack. Instead, after receiving Hayato's order, it unleashed its full power to increase its speed.

Compared to the tornado that swept across the land when [Strike Blackwing - Godly Onimaru Blade Bird] was summoned by Synchro Summon, [Starwind Wolf - Wolfra Leaf Wolf] instantly accelerated to a speed that left no afterimage. Only the impact of its high-speed movement accumulated at a single point on the field, gradually distorting the surrounding space and even gravity.

"Um, could it be [Black Hole]!?" Seeing the effect that was exactly the same as when [Black Hole] was activated, Oboro no Kage was so shocked by the sense of danger that his heart was pounding, but he still forced himself to say, "But [Strike Black Feather - Godly Onimaru Sword Bird] won't be destroyed by the effect!"

"Does a black hole formed from the collapse of a star after its complete death really only possess the destructive power found in Duel Monster cards? The power of [Starwind Wolf - Wolfra Leaf Wolf] is not the kind of power that Pegasus imagines—just a [black hole] that simply destroys everything!" Hayato snapped his fingers. "This is the ultimate power that creates everything yet ends everything. Under the effect of [Starwind Wolf - Wolfra Leaf Wolf], return this card and all monsters on your opponent's field to their respective decks!"

"Original Darkness: The End of the Universe!"

The distorted singularity created by [Starwind Wolf - Wolfra Leaf Wolf] suddenly expanded, instantly enveloping [Strike Black Feather - God-Standing Onimaru Blade Bird], who had only appeared for a minute on the Oboro Shadow Karma Wind Field, yet seemed to have reached the pinnacle of power and was being given infinite hope by Oboro Shadow Karma Wind. Then, with Hayato snapping his fingers, the expanding gravity field suddenly contracted and disappeared without a trace.

Along with them, the [Star Wind Wolf - Wolfra Leaf Wolf] on Hayato's field, the [Strike Black Feather - God-Standing Onimaru Blade Bird] on Oboro no Karasu's field, and the ground beneath their feet, which had been shattered on the surface by [Strike Black Feather - Sudden Rain Thunder Cutter Bird], then further damaged by [Earthbound Captive - Earth Painting Squid], and finally swallowed up and completely annihilated, leaving only a huge hemispherical crater as proof of what had just happened.

Oboro's breathing almost stopped, not only because his hard-won ace was instantly destroyed by Hayato as if he had kicked a stray dog ​​to death, but also because Hayato remained calm even when he saw this scene. He was indifferent to such a shocking scene and the sacrifice of his monster, and he could even laugh.
"Who exactly are you?" For the third time, Oboro no Kage asked Hayato the same question that had been asked three times before.

"You don't believe I'm just a duelist passing by? But I'm too lazy to rattle off a long list of titles like Daenerys Targaryen, especially since the arena's been destroyed and I don't think I can fit that many people here." Hayato looked troubled. "Or, how about you just think of me as the Demon Lord? The kind who 'destroys the world and creates it'?"

"The hero is not a demon king!" emphasized the [Water Spirit of the Temple] standing to the side.

"It's not uncommon for heroes and demon kings to share the same origin, and before you say that, don't come over and touch my abs!"

Undistracted by Hayato's playful antics with his spirits, Oboro no Kage could only focus on the word "Demon King" that Hayato casually mentioned.

"Demon King. Yes, even we [Black Feather] who have obtained the power of synchronization cannot resist you. You truly are a Demon King—no, it should be said that only someone like you can be a Demon King!" It's unclear what Oboro no Kage was thinking, but he suddenly looked at Hayato with murderous intent and said, "The 'Overlord' destined to appear in this world according to the prophecy of fate, dragging countless lives into the vortex of death, is definitely you, who is calling yourself a Demon King right now!"

"But our struggle is not over! The spirit of [Black Feather] remains even after you extinguished our hopes of reaching the pinnacle. My comrades are calling out to me not to give up, so 'Demon King'! This is no longer about the continuation of our race, but about the future of the world. I will defeat you!"

Having conjured up a whole bunch of inexplicable ideas in his head, Oboro no Kage suddenly started calling Hayato the "Demon King" he'd casually mentioned, and also casually brought up the "Overlord" that Hayato was somewhat concerned about. With only one used [Black Feather Whirlwind] card remaining on the field, Oboro no Kage drew one card from his remaining three hand and played it, saying: "I'll begin my second battle with the power of the first victim you killed—[Black Feather - Poisonous Wind Simon]!"

"If there are no monsters on my field, I can banish another [Blackwing] monster from my hand to activate this effect, place one [Black Whirlwind] from my Deck face-up in my Spell & Trap Zone, and either summon [Blackwing - Simon of Poison Wind] from my hand without Tribute or send it directly to the Graveyard!"

"Come forth, [Black Feather - Simon of the Poisonous Wind]!"

The Purple Winged Raven that Hayato previously used as a speed bump to kill—[Black Feather - Simon of Poisonous Wind]—reappeared after the card was played by the Shadow of Karma!

【Black Feather - Simon of the Poisonous Wind】【6☆/Dark】

[Bird/Beast Race/Effect]

[1600/2000]

　Indra has been released in FGO, but no matter how you look at it, it's basically a dark version of Bancho from Persona 4.
　　Lazy personality, good at being handsome, special skills are lightning, white hair, voice actor is Inoue, identified as Kakashi.

　　And—1302 added a new alias for the Shadow Lizard, an onomatopoeic lizard. The card name is also used in the rules as "Shua Lala," "Wo Wo Wo," "Long Long Long," and "Nu Nu Nu Nu," making a card with five fields of text—that's amazing! (Hot Hot: What about me?)
