Chapter 1891 Warriors Should Be Ready to Die
"Truly...weak and useless." Unable to raise its head, the [Skull Priest] could only hear the cold voice of "Judai," "The 'Conqueror's Haki' of [E-hero Dark Knight] can reduce the ATK of monsters on the opponent's field by the total original ATK of the monsters used as fusion materials for this card."

(The simplified Chinese name is Dark Knight, but names like Dark Knight and Dark Earth Demon are too unrecognizable, so we will use the translation "Dark Knight" here.)

"I used [E-hero Fallen Claw Demon] with 2500 ATK and [E-hero Neos] with 2500 ATK as its Fusion Material. Therefore, the original ATK of its Fusion Material was 5000. As long as this card exists, the ATK of all monsters on your opponent's field will decrease by 5000."

"—However, with your strength, there is no difference between 3000, 4000 and 5000 points."

[Synthesized Werewolf] [ATK2400→0]

[Celestial Knight] [ATK3800→0]

【Rejection of God-Share】【ATK3000→0】

[Chaos Warrior - Messenger of the Beginning -] [ATK3000→0]

In just a moment, under the suppression of the power of [E-hero Dark Knight], all four monsters on the field of [Skull Priest] were turned into monsters with 0 attack power. No wonder they were all unable to move and were pressed hard to the ground.

With a cold voice, Judai declared that the battle phase had begun. "Next, because I have E-hero Dark Knight on my field that can only be Special Summoned by the effect of Dark Fusion, I Special Summon E-hero Death Prism Demon by its own effect."

"Next, I send one [Hero] monster from my Deck—this [E-hero]—to the Graveyard to activate the second effect of [E-hero] Death Prism. If I Fusion Summon a [Hero] monster this turn, the face-up [E-hero] Death Prism can also be used as a substitute Fusion Material Monster that has its card name listed. In that case, other Fusion Materials cannot be substituted."

【E-hero Death Row Prism】【4☆/Light】

[Rock Faction/Effect]

[1700/1100]

"Next, I will use the effect of [E-hero Fiend Corpse Demon] in my graveyard to banish this card from my graveyard and activate the effect. I will then Special Summon [E-hero] monsters from my Deck and hand, except for one [E-hero Fiend Corpse Demon]. I will then Special Summon [E-hero Hell Knight] from my Deck in Attack Position."

【E-hero Hellfire Knight】【6☆/Wind】

[Demon Race/Effect]

[2100/800]

"When [E-hero Hellfire] is Summoned or Special Summoned, its effect is activated. I add one [Dark Fusion] from my Deck or Graveyard to my hand. I choose the second [Dark Fusion] in my Deck."

【“**十代”：4000LP，手牌：6→7→6→5→4→4→3→2→3】

In the blink of an eye, Jaden had two more monsters on his field, but he still had three cards in his hand, unchanged from when he completed the Fusion Summon. And judging from the second [Dark Fusion] card he just retrieved, he's about to start another round of Fusion Summoning!
"Spell Card [Dark Fusion] activated! Send my Fiend-Type monster [E-hero Hellfire] and Rock-Type monster [E-hero Death Prism] as Fusion Materials to the Graveyard!"

"The storm of the Wild Hunt cannot blow away the despair within the locked prison; the darkness buried deep underground has become the power under my command!"

"Fusion Summon, Level 8☆!"

"Submit to me—[E-hero Dark Gaia]!"

【E-hero Dark Gaia】【8☆/location】

[Demon Race/Fusion/Effect]

【? /0】

The crystal cage surrounding [E-hero Death Prism Demon] shattered and transformed into armor, which was then worn by [E-hero Hell Rider]. On the "Judai" field, a pale rock demon appeared, its enormous wings billowing like a cape.

"The original ATK of [E-hero Dark Gaia] will be changed to the sum of the original ATKs of the Fusion Material Monsters used in this card. [E-hero Death Prism Demon] has an ATK of 1700 and [E-hero Hell Rider] has an ATK of 2100, therefore the original ATK of [E-hero Dark Gaia] will become 3800!"

【E-hero Dark Gaia】【ATK? →3800】

Although he still had two cards left, "Judai" did not pursue the matter further. Instead, he waved his hand and said, "I have demonstrated my power. Be destroyed before my domineering might—enter the battle phase!"

"First, use [E-hero Dark Knight] to attack [Synthetic Werewolf]. This card can attack twice during one Battle Phase!"

"The Three Stages of Ignorance!"

"...How...how could this be? Such power is terrifying." The Skeleton Priest's head couldn't be pulled off the ground; he even felt his tongue and teeth being pressed into the earth, making it extremely difficult to speak. "Impossible...how could any creature in this world possess such power?"

"'Overlord'. Yes, only the 'Overlord', only the legendary 'Overlord', could possess such terrifying power, right?"

The two consecutive attacks of the [E-hero Dark Knight] with 1600 ATK, plus the attack of the [E-hero Wilder] with 1800 ATK, are enough to wipe out the [Skull Priest]'s field of Attack Position monsters with 0 ATK in an instant, dealing a full 5000 battle damage!
Not to mention that "Judai" also "unnecessarily" summoned a [E-hero Dark Gaia] with an attack power of 3800 points!
With difficulty, he turned his head to look at the monsters on the field of "Judai". Despite his reluctance, [Skull Priest] still moved his hand to the Spell & Trap Zone of the Duel Disk, preparing to activate a card.

"—But even if I am a 'tyrant,' I am absolutely unwilling to die like this!"

Just as [E-hero Dark Knight] raised his sword, ready to attack the defenseless [Synthetic Werewolf], [Skeleton Priest] overcame the difficulty and activated the last face-down card he wanted to play!

"Chain with the opponent's attack declaration of [E-hero Dark Knight], I activate this Trap Card in my back row!"

Upon hearing the Skeleton Priest's words, "Judai" remained expressionless: "It's meaningless. The E-hero Dark Knight and E-hero Dark Gaia summoned by Dark Fusion will not be the target of the opponent's effects during the turn they are summoned."

"Heh, of course I know that. Besides, targeting only one of your monsters won't stop the other two. Using a Trap Card on your monsters is useless now—but my Trap Card is used on my monsters!" The Skeleton Priest said, actually breaking free from the oppressive force field continuously exerted by the E-hero Dark Knight and standing up again: "Normal Trap Card: Desert Light! This card can change all the monsters on my field to face-up Defense Position!"

"The effect of [E-hero Dark Knight] is 'reduce the ATK of monsters on the opponent's field,' but my monsters' DEF remains unchanged. That means what will collide with the 1600 ATK of [E-hero Dark Knight] is the 1800 DEF of my [Synthetic Werewolf]!"

[Synthesize Werewolf] [ATK0→DEF1800]

[Celestial Knight] [ATK0→DEF2500]

[Rejecting God-Share][ATK0→DEF2800]

【Chaos Warrior - Messenger of the Beginning-】【ATK0→DEF2500】

With the Skull Priest's monsters all switching to Defense Position, they no longer had to directly confront Jaden's monsters with their attack power, which was continuously reduced by 5000 points and could almost be considered forcibly reduced to zero. The Skull Priest's monsters also recovered some of their fighting power.

The synthetic werewolf, when faced with a blade swinging down at it, suddenly opened its mouth wide, precisely biting the blade, and then swung its claws to repel the E-hero Dark Knight!

【"**Tenth Generation": 4000→3800LP, Hand: 3→2】

Seeing that Jaden's Life Points had finally decreased due to battle damage from a low-ATK monster attacking a high-DEF monster, [Skull Priest] excitedly exclaimed, "At this very moment, the effect of [Werewolf Synthesis] will also take effect, inflicting additional damage to the opponent's Life Points!"

"I have four Normal Monsters in my Graveyard, so inflict 800 Effect Damage on your opponent!"

["**Tenth Generation": 3800→3000LP, Hand: 2]

Although this effect is due to the fact that in the "Junior" series, only one monster on the field has an attack power lower than the defense power of "Werewolf Synthesis," and even "Werewolf Synthesis" has its attack power increased by 300 points due to the powerful effect of "Werewolf Synthesis," becoming 1800 points, which is equivalent to the defense power of "Werewolf Synthesis."

However, at this point, the Skeleton Priest wants to say "but": doesn't the decrease in the opponent's base score also represent a glimmer of hope for victory?
The 【Synthetic Werewolf】 has a defense of 1800, which means that even 【E-hero Wilder】 cannot destroy it. While 【E-hero Dark Knight】 can attack twice in one battle phase, once all of 【Skull Priest’s】 monsters are in defense position, there will be no monsters that can be destroyed by it.

While [E-hero Dark Gaia] does have high attack power, its own monsters are all in defense position. No matter how high the attack power is, it is meaningless if it cannot deal damage!

Of the monsters on my field, let's ignore [Synthetic Werewolf] for now. Both [Chaos Warrior - Messenger of the Beginning -] and [Celestial Knight] have a defense of 2500 points, and [God of Repulsion - Shared Responsibility] has a defense of 2800 points and cannot be destroyed by battle!
Even if [E-hero Dark Gaia] can attack each of [Skull Priest]'s monsters once, it won't matter, as I won't take any damage from them. Furthermore, [Reject God - Share the Burden] will act as the final shield, protecting me from all harm. In my next turn, I just need to find a way to deal with [E-hero Dark Knight], which has lost the resistance granted by [Dark Fusion], and a fierce attack might just be enough to turn the tables and defeat the opponent!
Overall, the advantage lies with me!
However, the Skeleton Priest never expected that what he would receive was the cold voice of "Ten Generations".

"Defense is meaningless before me, just as meaningless as your weak power." Calmly watching [Desert Light] take effect, calmly watching his Life Points drop one after another, "Judai" remained expressionless, as if he could not feel the pain that would accompany the drop in Life Points, or as if he had expected the current situation. "Next, I will use [E-hero Dark Gaia] to attack [Reject God - Fellow Bearer].

"Dark Calamity!"

"Heh, are you stupid? You actually attacked my [Reject God - Fellow Supporter]?" The [Skeleton Priest], whose mentality had become a little arrogant after hearing "Ten Generation's" declaration of attack, mocked.

As "Ten Generations"'s [E-hero Dark Gaia] slammed into [Reject God - Fellowship], [Skull Priest] was still saying: "I told you before, [Reject God - Fellowship] cannot be destroyed by battle. Even if you choose to attack three other monsters and they can't cause me battle damage, at least they can reduce the number of monsters on my field."

"But attacking [Reject God - Fellow Fan]? You can't destroy him, nor can you inflict any harm on me through him—"

Just before the iron fist was about to strike, the [Skeleton Priest] was still speaking, but to its astonishment, [Reject God - Fellow Bearer], who should have taken the full force of the attack without retaliating, instead moved when faced with [E-hero Dark Gaia]'s attack, raising its sword in an attempt to counterattack!?
This means that instead of facing the opponent's attack with 2800 defense points, it is now using its attack power, which has been reduced to 0 points, to withstand the 3800-point attack from [E-hero Dark Gaia]!

"Buga—!"

In an instant, [Reject God - Share the Burden] was heavily knocked away. Although he himself was not injured or destroyed in the battle, the [Skeleton Priest] behind him was hit and knocked down again after finally standing up!

Skeleton Priest: 4000 → 200 LP, Hand: 3 → 2

The base score, which was originally 4000 points, instantly plummeted to 200 points. The Skeleton Priest clutched his shattered skull mask, his horns all broken off, but he still couldn't understand what had just happened: "W-What happened? What happened!"

"Why can't my invincible [Reject God - Fellow Fan] block the attack?!"

"When [E-hero Dark Gaia] declares an attack, its second effect can be activated - 'A warrior should die for his cause'." Only now did Jaden reveal the effect of his monster. He glanced at the monster card on the Duel Disk, "Change the battle position of all the opponent's Defense Position monsters to face-up Attack Position. In this case, the effects of Flip Monsters will not be activated."

"In other words, when [E-hero Dark Gaia] attacks, your monsters are not allowed to remain in defense position. Not only is your [Reject God - Shared Resist] changed to attack position, but the same applies to your other monsters."

[Synthesize Werewolf] [DEF1800→ATK0]

[Celestial Knight] [DEF2500→ATK0]

【Rejecting God-Share】【DEF2800→ATK0】

[Chaos Warrior - Messenger of the Beginning -] [DEF2500→ATK0]

The Desert Light card activated by the Skeleton Priest was rendered useless. Under the effect of the E-hero Dark Gaia card, all of his monsters were put back into attack position. And on Jaden's field, there are still two monsters, E-hero Dark Knight and E-hero Wilder, that can attack!

As the two monsters, under the command of "Judai," launched their final attack and lunged towards him, the [Skull Priest] felt only helplessness, despair, and deep fear before losing consciousness and dying.

'What kind of monster is this? We can't possibly beat it!'

Is this what "Overlord" is like?

Skeleton Priest: 200LP → 0
