Is this the poker world?Ada thief!

"The material requirement is one or more Tuner and non-Tuner monsters. I will send my Level 1 Tuner monster [Radiant Poem of the Prison God] and Level 6 non-Tuner monster [Radiant Moon Poem - Fortuna] from my field to the Graveyard. Level 1 + Level 6 = 7!"

"Pick up the two cards from the duel disk," Hayato shouted.

"Break all bonds, and use karmic fire to transform this radiant forest into a blazing sea of ​​flames, becoming a strange flower blooming from this purgatory!"

(The other prototypes of Yaosheng are easy to find, but this one is the only one I can't find. If anyone knows, please let me know.)
A rainbow-like flame rose, burning away the entire green world unfolded by [Radiant Saint ~ Homecoming Parallelism~]. [Radiant Saint Poem of the Prison Spirit] absorbed the flames, transforming into the bird-headed, human-faced monster that appeared in [Radiant Saint ~ Rhapsody of Madness~]. It spread its blackened steel wings and took flight, its originally gray metal armor plates now stained with color, like blooming flowers of purgatory!
"Synchronization Summon: [The Great Saint of Hellflowers - Strickia]!"

【The Great Saint of Hellflowers - Strickland】【7☆/Flame】

[Plant-based/Synchronization/Effect]

【? /3000】

The culprits who burned down the forest happened to be plant-based beings? Not only did Caesar and John find it strange, but even Hayato found the race of [Great Saint of Hellflowers - Strychia] somewhat ironic and laughable. However, for Caesar and John, they were more concerned about the fact that the attack power of [Great Saint of Hellflowers - Strychia] was only "?".

"【Radiant Saint】is a deck that values ​​the center position, not only because several 【Radiant Saint】 monsters have to compete for the center position to be Special Summoned, but also because this 【Great Radiant Saint of Hellflower - Strychia】summoned by Synchro Summoning is like that. The reason its attack power is '?' is because its power can only be released when it is in the center position - that is, the central monster zone."

Hayato snapped his fingers. "As long as [The Great Saint of Hellflower - Strickia] exists in the central monster area, its attack power would originally be 3000 points. But now that it is not in the center, its attack power can be considered as 0 points."

【The Great Saint of Prison Flowers - Strickland】【ATK? →0】

"In addition, the effect of 'Radiant Holy Poem of the Prison God' that was sent to my graveyard can be activated. This effect can be activated when this card is sent to the graveyard as Synchro Material. Add one 'Radiant Holy' card from my deck to my hand. I chose 'Radiant Holy Flower Poem - Lucina'."

[Hayato Kobayashi: 4000LP, hand 3→4]

“Because [Radiant Flower Poem - Lucina] was previously Special Summoned using the effect of a Continuous Spell Card, can it be Special Summoned again using its effect? ​​However, even if you place it in your central Monster Zone, the newly summoned [Great Radiant Flower of Hell - Strychia] will only have 3000 ATK.” John pointed to the monsters on Hayato’s field.

Hayato tilted his head and said, "Is 3000 attack power a lot? It's just a [Blue Eyes]. You don't actually think this is the strength a terminal should have, do you? In reality, [Great Saint of Hellflower - Strychia] is just a stepping stone, a stepping stone for my subsequent Synchro Summoning."

"First, I Special Summon Lucina, the Flower of Radiance, to my Central Monster Zone using its own effect. Then I use the second effect of Strychia, the Great Radiance of Hellflower."

"This effect can only be activated during the Main Phase for both players. Special Summon one Level 6 or lower [Radiant] monster from my hand or Graveyard. After that, you can reduce the Level of all Level 4 or higher monsters on the field by 3 until the end of this turn. This turn, I cannot Special Summon monsters from the Extra Deck except Synchro Monsters."

"And what I Special Summon is this [Radiant Tina] from the Graveyard, which was previously sent to the Graveyard, and it lowers the Level of all monsters with a Level of 4 or higher by 3!"

【Radiant Saint's Wave - Tina】【6☆/Water→3☆/Water】【DEF1800】

【Radiant Flower Poem - Lucina】【6☆/Fire→3☆/Fire】【DEF1800】

【The Great Saint of Hellflowers - Strickland】【7☆/Flame→4☆/Flame】【ATK3000】

Not only on Hayato's field, but also on Johan's field, the monster's level dropped.

【Ultimate Jewel God - Rainbow Dragon】【10☆/Light→7☆/Light】【ATK8000】

【Thunder Emperor - Hamon】【10☆/Light→7☆/Light】【DEF4000】

【Jade Beast - Cobalt Spinel Eagle】【4☆/Wind→1☆/Wind】【DEF800】

【Jade Beast - Azure Jade Pegasus】【4☆/Wind→1☆/Wind】【DEF1200】

"Although Synchro Summoning requires both Tuner monsters and non-Tuner monsters to gather enough materials, just like Fusion Summoning does not necessarily require a Fusion Spell Card, Synchro Summoning can be performed without Tuner monsters, or even with only Tuner monsters and no non-Tuner monsters."

Hayato recalled a deck he had recently found in a shop called "Killer Melody" and casually remarked, "Demonstrating exceptional cases right before Synchro Summoning has become widespread might be a bit unfair, but as the Duel King, my power is limitless!"

"I will send two Level 3☆ [Radiant Saint Tina] and Level 4☆ [Great Radiant Saint Strychia] from my field to the Graveyard as Synchro Material. The monster I Synchro Summon next can also be used as a Synchro Summoning card from my Central Monster Zone—[Great Radiant Saint Strychia]."

(The picture is so beautiful, so gorgeous)
"To fulfill the Synchro Material requirement of a Tuner monster plus two other non-Tuner monsters—Tenchi Muyo! Embrace evolution under this pure light, unite, my representative!"

"Summoning Synchro, Level 4☆+3☆+3☆=10☆!"

"Tune the sounds of purgatory, sing the hymns of praise to the god of purgatory—[Junora, the Goddess of Purgatory]!"

Similar to Nerva, the final monster in the [Divine Arts] deck that once existed in the hands of "Light of Destruction," Hayato's [Radiant Saint] deck, which evolved from the [Divine Arts] deck, is also a monster with the name [God of Hell].

The steel-woven fence forms a straitjacket, binding the ghostly aura that resembles a veil, creating a huge gown that looks like the wings of a dead, pale angel. But the owner of this gown and wings is a demon with six arms and a ram's horn mask.

【Junora, the Goddess of Hell】【10☆/Flame】

[Demon Race/Synchronization/Effect]

[3100/3800]

"This exaggerated size is clearly just a monster with an attack power of 3100 points." Looking at the [Prison Goddess - Junora] in front of him, whose aura completely suppressed his side, John felt his heart stop for a moment, as if he had seen something extremely terrifying.

"Junora, the goddess of ancient Roman mythology?" Caesar felt an unusual pressure. The monster before him had the word "god" blatantly written in its name, making it no ordinary dueling monster. Its terrifying aura was almost suffocating just by its appearance—but the more oppressive it was, the more excited Caesar became. "Based on Hera of Greece and Juno of Rome, [Junora, the Goddess of Hell] is the ultimate ace of the [Radiant Saint] deck, embodying beauty, gentleness, and compassion. However, you may only feel terror, coldness, and cruelty, right? Because at this moment, she is your enemy."

Hayato grinned wickedly: "This effect can only be activated when [Junora] is Synchro Summoned. It negates the effects of all face-up cards on your opponent's field!"

"The Precepts of June!"

From the white giant's body, iron bars like thorns grew straight towards all the cards on John's field, indiscriminately targeting all cards to negate their effects. This attack fully unleashed the oppressive aura of [Junora, the Goddess of Hell], like a goddess in fury about to punish the world.

"Hey, Johnny!" shouted the [Jade Turtle] from Johnny's backcourt, "Use us before that ominous power descends!"

“Otherwise it will be too late!” John’s [Jade Beast - Azure Pegasus] in the front field also said.

"Everyone, I understand. Thank you for your help." John nodded, and under pressure, he quickly activated the card. "The effect of [Ultimate Jewel God - Rainbow Dragon] is not limited to being activated only once per turn. Before Hayato-sensei negates its effect, I will use it one more time!"

"Send all seven of my [Crystal Beast] cards to the Graveyard, and then [Ultimate Crystal God Rainbow Dragon] gains 7000 ATK!"

Because [Junora the Prison God] can negate not only monster effects, but also the effects of all Spell & Trap Cards. In fact, according to Hayato, this negation doesn't just last for one turn, but is permanent as long as the card is on the field.

As a result, John's current main cards on the field—[Thunder Emperor Hamon], which has a taunt effect in defense position, [Rainbow Ancient City - Rainbow Ruins], which can interfere with the opponent's activation of Spell & Trap Cards and halve battle damage, and [Ultimate Gem God - Rainbow Dragon]—will all become vanilla cards.

Unfortunately, John didn't have any way to defend against this attack. All he could do was further increase the attack power of [Ultimate Gem God - Rainbow Dragon] so as not to waste the power of the other [Gem Beasts] - and even if he didn't use it, the [Gem Beasts] cards on his field would be destroyed by the effect of [Counter Gem] at the end of the turn.

All seven gems on [Ultimate Gem God - Rainbow Dragon] lit up, and its attack power, which had already increased to 8000 points, surged again. Moreover, the attack power increase of [Ultimate Gem God - Rainbow Dragon] was not a temporary increase from cards like [Limit Removal], but an attack power bonus that could be maintained as long as it was on the field. Now, the attack power of [Ultimate Gem God - Rainbow Dragon] has skyrocketed to a full 15000 points, equivalent to five [Blue-Eyes White Dragons]!
【Ultimate Jewel God - Rainbow Dragon】【ATK8000→15000】

However, in the next moment, the rain of iron spikes fell, piercing through the remaining three cards on John's field. [Ultimate Jewel God - Rainbow Dragon], which had been full of vigor just moments before, suddenly looked severely injured and listless; [Thunder Emperor - Hamon] was also silenced, its bones broken and it could only lie on the ground; and [Rainbow Ancient City - Rainbow Ruins] was more than half demolished, becoming pineapple-pineapple (completely dilapidated).

“Rainbow-Dragon!” John looked at his own [Ultimate Jewel God - Rainbow Dragon] with some concern, then turned to Hayato, “The sheer scale of this power is terrifying, a truly frightening effect. But thankfully, that monster itself doesn’t possess very strong attack power.”

"My [Thunder Emperor - Hamon] effect was negated, and I lost the effect of forcing the opponent to only attack in defense position. However, [Ultimate Jewel God - Rainbow Dragon] now has 15000 attack power, which should be enough to withstand your attack this turn, Hayato-sensei."

“So, you’re so cute~” Hayato held up a finger and wagged it. “I just used the effect of [Junora] to make your card stop getting in the way, but I never said that my turn’s development was over.”

"First, I activate this [Angel's Charity] to draw three cards from my deck and then discard two cards from my hand."

"Next, I will use the effect of my Continuous Trap Card [Radiant Saint ~Rhapsody of Rhapsody~] on my back field - I can send one monster card from my hand or field to the Graveyard, and then target a [Radiant Saint] monster in my Graveyard with a different Attribute than that monster, and Special Summon it to the field."

Hayato pointed to the monsters on his field and said, "I'm going to send my WATER 'Radiant Wave Tina' to the Graveyard, and then Special Summon my FIRE 'Radiant Wave Prison Spirit' from the Graveyard."

【The Prison Spirit of Yao Sheng Hymn】【DEF200】

"Because a monster was Special Summoned from my Graveyard and the effect of [Doppelganger Warrior] in my hand was activated, I Special Summon it to my field."

After playing a card, Hayato waved his hand, "Then comes the effect of [Radiant Holy Spirit of the Prison God]. During both players' Main Phases, target one monster in my Central Monster Zone and raise its Level by 3 stars. Then you can Synchro Summon one [Radiant Holy] Synchro Monster or [Prison God Junola]. Here, I simply raise the Level of [Double Warrior] that was Special Summoned to the Central Monster Zone."

【Double Body Warrior】【2☆/Dark→5☆/Dark】

[Warrior Race/Effect]

[800/800]

"Send my Level 1☆ Tuner monster [Radiant Hymn of the Prison] and Level 5☆ Non-Tuner monster [Dual Warrior] to the Graveyard as Synchro Materials to satisfy the material requirement of adding a Tuner monster to a non-Tuner monster."

"A coral dragon that roams the deep sea has appeared here. Synchro Summon, Level 1☆ + 5☆ = 6☆!"

"【Coral Dragon】!"

【Huzhilong】【ATK2400】

Not long ago, the [Coral Dragon] appeared in the field controlled by Yubel, and was summoned by Hayato as a fairly versatile Synchro Monster Card. However, at the same time, the [Double Warrior], which had just been sent to the Graveyard as Synchro Material, "returned" to Hayato's field and even split into two.
"When 'Doppelganger Warrior' is sent to the Graveyard as Synchro Material, activate its second effect to Special Summon two 'Doppelganger Tokens' to my field in Attack Position." Hayato explained the origin of the two monsters on the field.

【Doppelganger Derivative】【1☆/Dark】

[Warrior Race/Derivative]

[400/400]

"Next, I activate this [Pot of Greed] to return five monster cards from my graveyard to the deck and shuffle them."

After playing a card, Hayato retrieved five cards from his graveyard: [Radiant Moon Poem - Fortuna], [Radiant Wave Poem - Tina], two [Radiant Flower Poem - Lucina], and [Double Warrior] into his deck. He then drew two cards. "After that, I drew two cards from my deck."

"Use the effect of [Coral Dragon] as the cost of one card from my hand to discard this [Exploding Sniper] from my hand, then target one card on your opponent's field and destroy that card." Hayato pointed to John's most prominent monster on the field.

"What I'm going to destroy is—[Ultimate Jewel God - Rainbow Dragon]!" (End of Chapter)
