"Four monster cards were banished with 'Treasure of Fate'? What a ridiculous combo from Goku and Shishi." Hayato grumbled about Odin's 'Treasure of Fate' plus 'Dimensional Fusion' combo, then took three cards from his banished cards, saying, "Since I have three empty slots on the field, I'll Special Summon these three from the banished monsters—"

"Come back! [Three Jade Crystals], [Azure Dragon], [Black Tortoise]!"

【Crystal Ingenuity - Three-Dimensional Jade Crystal】【DEF2000→2300】

【Crystal Ingenuity - Amethyst Azure Dragon】【DEF1500→1800】

【Crystal Intricacy - Green Crystal Basalt】【DEF2000→2300】

Hayato's field was now filled with the three monsters summoned by [Dimensional Fusion], but to be honest, Hayato didn't really want these three monsters to appear. Their presence was completely blocking his monster zone and preventing him from making any plays.

Hayato's field was blocked by the three monsters thrown out by [Dimensional Fusion], while [Supreme Holy Emperor - Odin] was able to expand further because he had replenished enough Synchro Material.

“The magic card [Angel's Charity] draws three cards from my deck and then discards two more.” After a round of card swapping, [Supreme Holy Emperor - Odin] sent two cards to the graveyard and said, “I choose [Polar Star Treasure - Ice Shield] and [Polar Star Heaven - Mimir].

"Then, I will continue the Synchro Summoning, Hayato Kobayashi!" [Supreme Holy Emperor - Odin] said, raising the spear in his hand, "Under my guidance, the most valiant warrior of Norse mythology will descend!"

"Send my Level 5 Tuner monster [Polar Spirit - Dark Elf], Level 1 [Polar Spirit - Dwarf], and Level 4 [Polar Beast - Cerberus], both non-Tuner monsters, to the Graveyard as Synchro Material. If this is satisfied, add one or more non-Tuner monsters to the Tuner monster!"

"When the Astral Gate opens, the ancient God of War will raise his demonic hammer and appear amidst the earth-shaking thunder!"

Thunder echoed through the air, lightning gathered in the clouds, and lightning serpents coiled around the giant hammer of [Thor, the Supreme God Emperor]. This valiant warrior stepped forward and stood beside [Odin, the Supreme God Emperor], intervening in the battle by using the rules of the duel!

"Summoning Synchro, Level 1☆+4☆+5☆=10☆!"

"Respond to my call—[Supreme God Emperor Thor]!"

[3500/2800]

However, upon seeing the arrival of [Thor, the Supreme God Emperor], Hayato couldn't help but complain, "When did the Norse god of war change from Tyr to Thor? I ask you, isn't it just an evolution of divine authority, or Odin taking over the role of the god of war?"

"And if I remember correctly, Tyr in Norse mythology died in a battle with Cerberus. Not only did you steal someone else's divine authority, but you also used the being that killed the other as material for your Synchro Synthesis? Then you're invincible." Hayato said, giving a thumbs up.

"You're invincible." The unsummoned [Ultimate God Emperor - Loki] repeated Hayato's words like a broken record, and also gave a thumbs up to [Ultimate God Emperor - Thor].

"Whose side are you on, you bastard?!" [Supreme God Emperor - Thor] roared at him.

【Odin, the Holy Emperor】 pointed to his graveyard and said, "When 【Polar Spirit - Dwarf】, which is face-up on the field, is sent to the graveyard, I activate its effect to add one 【Polar Treasure】 card from my graveyard to my hand. Although the previous 【Polar Treasure - High Throne】 was banished by your monster, I still have 【Polar Treasure - Ice Shield】, which I just sent to the graveyard with 【Angel's Charity】, to recover."

【Supreme Holy Emperor - Odin: 2000 LP, Hand cards 3→3→4】

"Next, I will continue to perform Synchro Summoning, and the Tuner Monster I will use is my Level 2☆ [Polar Spirit - Dark Elf]."

"But what about monsters outside of the Tuner?" Hayato raised an eyebrow, glancing at [Polar Star Spirit - Dark Elf]. As a seasoned card player, he usually has a certain understanding of the commonly used cards in most mainstream decks or popular fun decks. After all, there are all sorts of people among the card players, and no one knows what kind of strange cards their opponent might include in their deck.

However, while the popularity of the Polar Star deck is higher than that of bottom-tier decks like Dust Fairy and Chain due to the "Three Extreme Gods" bonus, it cannot compare with truly popular decks like Hero and Cyber ​​Dragon. In terms of strength, even the three strongest terminal "Three Extreme Gods" are difficult to summon in the real card version, their effects are not powerful enough, and none of them can be activated during the opponent's turn. Even the resurrection effect has a cost.

It got stuck in the middle, so much so that even Hayato, who had seen countless cards, couldn't remember what the effects of the [Polar Star] cards were. "The effect of [Polar Star Spirit - Dark Elf] is that when this card is used as Synchro Material, the other Synchro Material monsters must be two monsters from my hand whose names contain [Polar Star]," explained [Polar God Emperor - Odin]. "This effect initially seems like a restriction, but it actually means—I can Synchro Summon it using those two cards from my hand!"

"Send the Level 4☆ [Polar Spirit - Light Sprite] and the Level 4☆ [Polar General - Tyr] to the Graveyard along with the Tuner Monster [Polar Spirit - Dark Sprite] for my third and final Synchro Summon!"

【Supreme God Emperor - Odin】 glared at 【Supreme God Emperor - Loki】 on the field with one eye, which also let Him know that He really had to work hard, and reluctantly walked onto the field.

[Polar General - Tyr], stripped of his title of "God of War" and demoted to the rank of "General", and [Polar Spirit - Light Elf] flew out of [Odin's] hand and entered the two adjustment rings set up by [Polar Spirit - Dark Elf], transforming into eight shining stars, which then suddenly expanded into a pillar of light that pierced through the heavens and the earth!

"Born of the stars, you capricious god, display your absolute power to all living beings and mock the world!"

"Summoning Synchro, Level 2☆+4☆+4☆=10☆!"

"Show yourself—[Loki, the Supreme God Emperor]!"

(Note: This is, of course, the animated version.)

【Loki, the Supreme God Emperor】【10☆/God】

[Phantom Beast Race/Synchro/Effect]

[3300/3000]

The last pillar of the "Triads of the Astral Realms," the god of "mischief and lies"—Loki, the Supreme God-Emperor—finally descended upon Odin, the Supreme God-Emperor!

Although Odin used overly powerful cards like "Fate's Treasure" and "Dimensional Fusion" to "cheate" during the process, he still managed to Special Summon all three "Gods" in a single turn!
"My effect is that during my attack turn, I can 'prank' one card in my opponent's Spell & Trap Zone, negating its activation and effect and destroying it." [Loki, the Supreme God Emperor] sneered, tossing and playing with a black magic bullet he conjured in his hand. "In other words—an ability specifically designed to counter you, Kobayashi Hayato, who likes to use Spell & Trap Cards to aid in battle!"

Hayato's [Crystal Machine - Quantum Cardinal White Crystal] has been targeted by Him. After all, when He fought Hayato last time as [King's Shadow - Lopto], He was ultimately defeated by the red-clad and rather "destroying" [Kusha Wrathful Fenrir Wolf], who also participated in the kill.

—【Crystal Mechanism - Quantum Red Sparrow White Crystal】is both red and mechanical, so of course 【Ultimate God Emperor - Loki】would want to take revenge on it for the humiliation of being defeated in the past.

"My power is to negate the effects of one of the opponent's monsters once per turn and give it the same effect." [Emperor Thor] explained his own power, tapping the ground with his massive hammer. "Warriors should face death without fear!"

With an attack power of 3500, He stared intently at Hayato's [Crystal Machine - Central Serpent], wishing he could immediately engage in a fierce battle with it.

Odin glanced at the last two cards in his hand. One was the trap card "Polar Star Treasure - Ice Shield," which he had just recovered with the effect of "Polar Star Spirit - Dwarf." There wasn't a suitable opportunity to play the other card for the time being. However, in his view, he had already Special Summoned all three "Polar Gods" in one go, and victory was already on his side.

"My magic and traps against the gods will be nullified by me. Even cards that temporarily enhance power will be destroyed by Loki, and the effects of monsters will be stolen by Thor. Utter fear and despair—this is the end that humans like you deserve!"

"Use [Thor] to first nullify the effect of [Crystal Machine - Central Serpent] on your field, then enter my battle phase. [King of the Gods - Loki] attacks [Crystal Machine - Quantum Red Sparrow White Crystal]!"

"First and foremost, my power—the Effect Absorber!" A preemptive strike sealed the effect of [Crystal Mechanism - Central Serpent], but [Emperor Thor] belatedly realized that he hadn't actually absorbed any power. "Aside from the banishing effect upon entering the battlefield, it seems there aren't any effects that can be activated under normal circumstances? Hmph, pure power, just what I wanted, Jormungandr!"

"You can have whatever kind of fight you want, but I'm going to make the first move. To your left!" [Loki, the Supreme God Emperor] gathered magic bullets at his fingertips, completely unconcerned that the attack would harm [Thor, the Supreme God Emperor]—or perhaps he felt it wouldn't matter if he did? In any case, a thick magic cannon was launched from [Loki, the Supreme God Emperor]'s fingertips, striking [Crystal Machine - Quantum Red Sparrow White Crystal], whose attack power was only 3100 points even after the field's enhancement.

"Void Bullet!"

At that moment, Hayato pressed the button to activate the face-down card, saying, "Spell and Trap Cards that affect [Extreme God] will be negated, so I'll use this card—Quick-Play Spell Card [Limit Removal]! Double the ATK of all Machine-Type monsters on my field until the end of this turn!"

The monsters of the 【Crystal Machine】 series are often simply referred to as "Water Machine". This is not only an abbreviation of their name, but also a concise description that they are all WATER-type Machine monsters. Since they are Machine monsters, it is only natural that this versatile card, which can be used in all Machine decks that need to boost their attack, should be included in the deck!
Not to mention that the side effect of destroying boosted monsters during its final phase can, to some extent, help [Crystal Machine] monsters activate their effects, its ability to double attack power might also play a crucial role, just like it does now!
"Fool! Didn't I tell you my effect? ​​Under my power, be nullified and crushed, [Limit Release]!" [Supreme God Emperor - Loki] glared at the card Hayato was about to flip open, nullifying and destroying its activation and effect. The magic cannon continued to advance towards [Crystal Machine - Quantum Red Sparrow White Crystal], which had failed to receive a power boost.

However, at that moment, the other three monsters on Hayato's field, besides the two Synchro Monsters, vanished without a trace. Although attacking Hayato's Crystal Machine - Quantum Red Sparrow White Crystal, it didn't mean Loki hadn't noticed his surroundings. He immediately exclaimed anxiously, "Vanished!? Where did your monsters go, Hayato Kobayashi!"

"Accelerated Synchro Summoning, even surpassing Light!" Hayato replied with a cryptic statement, pointing to another card on his back row, "Just as [Limit Removal] activated, I also activated this card, but you were completely distracted by [Limit Removal]!"

"Only with a powerful enough card to draw your attention can you ignore the activation of this Trap Card, [Emergency Synchro]. This card's effect is to activate during both players' Battle Phases and Synchro Summon a Synchro Monster!"

Hayato knew that activating [Emergency Synchronization] directly wouldn't be able to trick [King Loki] into negating its effect, but it was definitely not Hayato's style to just watch his monster be destroyed by [King Loki]. After all, Hayato was known for his kind heart, and there was no duelist more compassionate than him. How could he bear to watch his monster be destroyed?
While enduring Loki's attack and then unleashing the "Limit Release" during Thor's or Odin's subsequent attacks could certainly result in a spectacular counterattack, the problem is that Hayato dislikes Loki the most. He'd rather delay his victory than not beat Loki up first—and that's exactly what he's about to do!
"I'm sending my Level 2☆ Tuner monster [Crystal Machine - Trinity Crystal], Level 3☆ Non-Tuner monster [Crystal Machine - Amethyst Blue Dragon], and Level 2☆ Non-Tuner monster [Crystal Machine - Green Crystal Black Tortoise] to the Graveyard as Synchro Materials!"

"Spread those beautiful and majestic wings and vanquish the enemy at the speed of light!"

"Summoning Synchro, Level 2☆+3☆+2☆=7☆!"

"A dazzling debut—[Phantom Wing Synchro Dragon]!"
