Chapter 1732 Imperial Enterprise: Cuckoo Cuckoo Cuckoo!
Even without looking at the lit-up baobab tree icon representing Africa on the [Voyager and the Mysterious Map], most people would immediately associate the image of an ostrich with Africa. [Voyager x Ostrich] is naturally the creature that the [Voyager] encounters at their next stop after leaving London on their long journey.

However, while both [Wind-flying Bird x Robin] and [Wind-flying Bird x Bald Eagle] provide opportunities for development, [Wind-flying Bird x Ostrich] can be used to disrupt the opponent.

【Flying Migratory Bird × Ostrich】【1☆/Water】

[Bird/Beast Race/Effect]

[700/1100]

After successfully summoning [Wind-Traveling Bird x Ostrich], watching the coin flipped by [Face Bat] land tails without any pattern, Hayato said, "Then because of the effect of [Face Bat], [Holy Flame King - Great Phoenix] will change to face-down defense position."

[Holy Flame King - Great Roc Phoenix → Under-face Defense Position Monster] [ATK 2700 → DEF 1700]

"Hmph, whatever, as long as the effect of [Saint Flame King - Phoenix] is successfully activated, that's enough." Watching Hayato summon a new monster, [Priestess of Nephthys] felt like she had forgotten something. Although she had a bad feeling, she couldn't remember what it was, but she still took out a card from her deck. "The last thing to deal with is the effect of [Saint Flame King - Phoenix]. I will destroy this FIRE-attribute Winged Beast monster in my deck - [Flame Queen - Phoenix].

"However, the effect of [Fire Queen - Phoenix] will also trigger if it is destroyed and sent to the Graveyard! Special Summon one [Fire King Divine Beast - Roc Phoenix] from my Deck in Defense Position!"

C1 [Flame Queen - Fire God Phoenix]!
Seeing that [Nephthys' Priest] had its effect activated, Hayato followed suit: "You're not the only one whose effect has been activated, I have too. If [Wind-Walking Bird x Ostrich] is successfully summoned, you can target 1 card in either player's Graveyard to activate this effect. Banish it, and after that I can summon a Winged Beast Monster."

C1 [Empress of Flame - Phoenix of Fire] C2 [Wind-Traveling Bird × Ostrich], because of the chain's effect of being dealt with first, Hayato's [Wind-Traveling Bird × Ostrich] was dealt with first. He decisively pointed to the opponent's graveyard and said: "I will banish [Nephthys' Priest] from the opponent's graveyard!"

"Then, I Tribute Summon 'Giant Bird of the Valley of Mist' from my hand. However, due to the effect of 'Windwalker and Unknown Wind,' as a substitute for Tribute Summoning, I send 'Windwalker x Robin' from my field and 'Holy Flame King - Phoenix' from my opponent's field, which were changed to face-down Defense Position, to the Graveyard!"

It wasn't until Hayato mentioned it that the Priestess of Nephthys remembered something she had overlooked: when Hayato used the effect of [Wind-Traveling Bird and Unknown Wind], he never mentioned that its effect was limited to once per turn!

Your own card from your graveyard, 【Nephthys Priest】, is banished. 【Holy Flame King - Great Phoenix】, which you barely managed to summon on the field, is not only set to face-down Defense Position but is also instantly sent to the graveyard. Meanwhile, your opponent's 【Windwalker x Robin】 is banished due to its own effect, and 【Valley of Mist Giant Bird】 returns to the field!

Although Hayato emptied his hand, his monster lineup on the field was expanded again. On the other hand, although [Torchbearer of Nephthys] successfully Special Summoned [Flame King Beast - Phoenix] to the field, she now only had that one monster left on her field.

[Nephthys' Priestess: 4000LP, Hand 2 → 1]

【Eirin God Beast - Roc Phoenix】【8☆/Eirin】

[Bird/Beast Race/Effect]

[2700/1700]

Even though I have [Fountain Beast - Phoenix] on my field with a built-in "Deathrattle" effect, and even though I have [Ancient Forest] in my hand that can replace my opponent's field spell card and change my [Fountain Beast - Phoenix] from Defense Position to Attack Position, I still can't win, right?
The opponent is too strong. Before today, even the Priests of Nephthys, who had gathered the power of the Flame King, thought that Nephthys was the most skilled elven tribe in the world at resource recycling and recovery. No one knew better than them how to fight a war of attrition. But in front of these seemingly cute Wind-Walking Birds...
I'm truly sorry that I didn't let [Traveler] have a good time.
However, I still want to try one last time and struggle to the very end!
Thinking of this, [Nephthys' Priestess] would play the last card in her hand, [Ancient Forest], to change her [Flamingo Beast - Roc Phoenix] from defense position to attack position, at the very least dragging down the opponent's [Windwalker x Emperor Penguin] to a mutual destruction.
"I activate—"

"I don't understand, damn it!" Hayato didn't even give [Nephthys' Priestess] a chance to finish speaking, waving his hand and saying, "[Giant Bird of the Valley of Mist]'s effect doesn't have a one-turn limit, she can activate the effect again now that she's back on the field!"

"Whether it's a spell/trap or a monster effect, recall my [Giant Bird of the Valley of Mist] to my hand, negate its activation, and destroy it!"

The Field Spell Card [Ancient Forest] has the ability to change all Defense Position monsters on the field to Attack Position after activation. It can not only change the position of [Flame King Beast - Phoenix] on [Nephthys Priest]'s field, but more importantly, it can also change several Defense Position monsters on Hayato's field, such as [Windwalker] and [Face Bat], to Attack Position.

Although [Ancient Forest] has the effect of destroying the attacking monster at the end of the battle phase, for [Flame King] and [Nephthys], this effect destruction is not a disadvantage but a great advantage—but the problem is that [Ancient Forest] was negated by Hayato before it could even be successfully deployed!

Its only achievement was replacing Hayato's Field Spell Card "Wind-Walking Bird and Mysterious Map" when it was activated, thanks to the current rules of Duel Monsters.

Having emptied his last hand and failed to eliminate even a single monster on Hayato's field, [Nephthys Priestess] could only helplessly declare the end of his turn.

"I end my turn."

[Nephthys the Priest: 4000 LP, 0 cards in hand]

【Eagle King Divine Beast - Roc Phoenix】【DEF1700】

【Hayato Kobayashi: 4000LP, hand 0→1】 【Migratory Bird x Emperor Penguin】【ATK2700】

【Flying Bird × Ostrich】【DEF1100】

【Face Bat】【DEF0】

Backcourt: [Migratory Birds and Unknown Winds] [Given Card]

However, although the lineup on the field looked pitiful and rather shabby, [Nephthys Priestess] was still somewhat confident that she could withstand Hayato's attack for one turn.

If the [Flame King Beast - Phoenix] on your field is destroyed by battle, you can Special Summon other [Flame King] monsters from your Deck. If the [Holy Flame King - Phoenix] in your Graveyard is destroyed, you can Special Summon yourself. In other words, as long as Hayato doesn't start by Tributing [Windwalker and Unknown Wind] to Summon [Mist Valley Giant Bird] again, there's a high probability that he can survive another turn.

However, hoping that the other party's scumbag tactics will leave them a chance of survival is unrealistic.
“My turn, draw a card.” Hayato glanced at the card in his hand, added it to his hand, and then said, “Next, during my Standby Phase, I open the face-down card on my back field, the Quick-Play Spell Card [Wind-Traveling Bird and Travel Preparation]. I banish one Bird-Beast monster from my hand and face-up monsters on the field to activate this effect. The monster I banished is [Wind-Traveling Bird × Ostrich] on my field.”

Remove the cards from the field and banish [Windwalker x Ostrich] after it leaves the field. Hayato now has a card he just searched in his hand. "I add one [Windwalker] monster or one [Windwalker] Field Spell Card from my Deck to my hand. After that, my Life Points are restored by 500."

"I'm adding [The Wandering Bird and the Mysterious Map] to my hand."

"Next is the second effect of my [Wandering Bird and Unknown Wind], which can only be activated during my Main Phase. I select up to two Winged Beast monsters from my hand to show to my opponent, return them to the bottom of my Deck in any order they like, and draw the same number of cards from my Deck."

Hayato flipped over the two cards in his hand, besides the newly added [Wind-Traveling Bird and Mysterious Map], and said, "I will show [Gale Emperor - Raiza] and [Giant Bird of the Valley of Mist], then return to the bottom of the deck and draw two cards."

[Hayato Kobayashi: 4000LP, hand 3→3]

The newly drawn card seemed to suit Hayato's tastes very well. He played one of them and said, "Next, I will activate the second Field Spell Card in my deck, [Windbird and Mysterious Map], and use its effect to reveal one Level 1 [Windbird] monster in my hand—this [Windbird x Toucan]—to my opponent, and banish [Windbird x Snowy Owl] from my deck."

"After that, use the effect of [Windwalker and Mystery Map] to Normal Summon [Windwalker x Toucan] in Defense Position."

【Flying Migratory Bird × Toucan】【1☆/Wind】

[Bird/Beast Race/Effect]

[500/1300]

The three Migratory Birds carried Hayato back to the Migratory Birds and the Mysterious Map on his head. The Amazon River icon, representing South America, was also lit up. Now, all five marked locations on the Migratory Birds and the Mysterious Map are lit up, except for the North Pole, which represents the starting point. The new monster that appeared on Hayato's field is none other than a toucan that lives in the Amazon rainforest.

Although its official name is "鵎鵼", it is too obscure, so the more descriptive name "巨托鸟" (giant toucan) is much easier to remember.

"If 【Windwalker x Toucan】 is successfully summoned, I will target one of my banished 【Windwalker】 cards, add it to my hand, and perform an additional Normal Summon of a Winged Beast Monster. The card I choose is the 【Windwalker x Snowy Owl】 that was just banished."

After a pause, Hayato retrieved another card, "and the effect of the banished [Windwalker x Robin]: if I summon a Winged Beast monster on my field, activate it and add it to my hand."

Hayato did not use all three of his banished "Windwalker" lower-level monsters to recover them all at once with their respective effects. Instead, he only retrieved one of them. This is also a way for "Windwalker" to protect the chain, that is, to use the effect of the banished "Windwalker" to clear the chain and avoid important effects being negated.

Hayato completed the summon using the effect of the Field Spell Card [Wind-Traveling Bird and Mysterious Map], but he retrieved two banished monster cards in quick succession. However, this time, instead of playing [Wind-Traveling Bird x Robin] first, he played the last monster, [Wind-Traveling Bird], which hadn't yet appeared.

"Under the effect of [Windwalker and Unknown Wind], I send my [Windwalker x Toucan] and my opponent's [Teammon - Roc Phoenix] to the Graveyard. Tribute Summon!" Hayato pulled out a pair of sunglasses from somewhere. "I sense the potential of a new human in Snowcat—she could be the mother of our [Windwalker]!"

【Migratory Bird on the Wind × Snowy Owl】【10☆/Water】

[Bird/Beast Race/Effect]

[2900/800]

Finally, the original [Flying Bird] monster appears. On [Flying Bird and the Mysterious Map], the cedar icon representing the Arctic, the original departure point of the three [Flying Birds], lights up. Appearing on Hayato's field is a snowy owl that provided the three terns with clothing, food, and even a map for their long journey, truly deserving to be called their "mother." It looks quite gentle.

"The effect of 【Wind-Traveling Bird × Snow Owl】 is that if this card, which was Tribute Summoned, is on my field, I can activate it once per turn, allowing me to perform up to three Normal Summons this turn." Despite saying this, Hayato had no intention of activating its effect, since he had already created a kill field on the field and could secure victory without any further development.

The reason he took the photos of the "Wind Migratory Bird × Snowy Owl" was simply because he wanted each of the "Wind Migratory Birds" to make an appearance, like stamping a commemorative document to light up all the "Wind Migratory Birds and the Mysterious Map".

—It's like having three monsters on the field, a copy of "Obelisk the Tormentor" in your hand, and not having made a Normal Summon this turn. Who could resist the temptation to play "Obelisk the Tormentor" and utterly crush their opponent?
"That's it, let's enter my battle phase, then all forces attack!" With a wave of his hand, Hayato issued the first and final command of this duel, his hand pointing directly at [The Priestess of Nephthys]!
First came the blizzard whipped up by the wings of the [Wind-Traveling Bird x Snow Owl], followed by a slap from the [Wind-Traveling Bird x Emperor Penguin] with its "coo-coo-coo-coo" sound. Under these two direct attacks, the [Priestess of Nephthys]'s life points were wiped out in an instant, and she fell down!
