Who asked him to play Yu-Gi-Oh!

Chapter 1328 Number
NO.17 Sea Dragon, Summon!

[NO.17 Sea Dragon, Attack Power 2000]

Sea Dragon, while not a particularly powerful Xyz Monster, is still a monster of special significance. After all, it was the first major obstacle encountered by the anime's protagonist, Yuma Tsukumo, and also the first numbered monster to appear in anime history.

The Xyz Monster descended into this dimension for the first time. At that moment, the number 17 appeared on Mr. T's body, and the few people present who all possessed extraordinary powers could immediately sense that his aura had surged.

At this moment, Jaden's eyes had already transformed into the golden eyes of a tyrant, through which he could see the Sea Dragon continuously channeling its power into Mr. T's body. In Jaden's vision, Mr. T appeared to be burning all over.

"What's going on?" Jaden asked in surprise. "What kind of Xyz and what kind of number is this? And this power..."

He frowned slightly.

It's not that this mere sea dragon is ridiculously powerful; Jaden has seen even stronger bosses, so he's quite the weatherer.

However, this numbered monster seemed to contain something else within it, not pure power, but some peculiar attribute that he had never seen in any person or elf before.

This attribute made him instinctively feel that something was wrong.

"Then let me borrow the power of an Xyz Monster right now! Activate the effect of NO.17 Sea Dragon!"

Mr. T shouted.

"Once per turn, Sea Dragon gains 500 ATK by removing one Xyz Material from this card!"

Unlike Synchro and Fusion, the monsters used as summoning materials for Xyz Monsters are not immediately sent to the Graveyard, but continue to overlap at the bottom of the Xyz Monsters.

Furthermore, Xyz Monsters can activate specific abilities by removing the Xyz Material beneath them.

The sea dragon bit off one of the two orbs of light surrounding it, and the dissipated orb immediately transformed into energy that surged into the sea dragon's body. The sea dragon's power instantly increased significantly.

[NO.17 Sea Dragon, Attack Power 2000 → Attack Power 2500]

"Battle!" Mr. T shouted. "NO.17 Sea Dragon, attack 'Jetman'!"

The sea dragon suddenly raised its head, and a ghostly blue bioluminescence shone deep within its throat. With a high-frequency, trembling roar, compressed liquid energy burst forth from between its serrated teeth, like an annihilating torrent from the abyss.

"Feel the power of NO, and then destroy!" Mr. T laughed.

"No, the animated version is indeed a bit tricky." Yu Xuan smiled.

The anime features a rule that "NO can only be defeated by NO," meaning that all monsters with numbers in their names cannot be destroyed by monsters with numbers other than their assigned numbers.

If it's just a simple resistance to battle damage, it's not that remarkable. But if it's a whole series of group resistances, then it's like an extra bonus, which naturally makes it more troublesome.

However, this only applies to combat damage resistance; the card's effects still need to be accepted.

Yu Xuan snapped his fingers: "Activate the face-down card, Trap Card 'Causal Cut'!"

Judai's eyes lit up: "Oh, it's here! Yugen's causal severance!"

“By discarding a card from your hand, you can banish one face-up monster from the game,” Yu Xuan said. “Vanish the Sea Dragon!”

A transparent gap suddenly appeared in the sky, and endless gravity drew the sea dragon into it, as if an invisible hand was trying to pull it in.

“Even numbered monsters can’t resist traps, right?” You Xuan chuckled.

Mr. T frowned slightly.

This guy... This dimension should be the first time the concepts of overcapacity and numbering have appeared, so why does Fujiki Yugen sound like he knows it all?
But Mr. T was not afraid and said, "Then activate the face-down card at this moment, and the trap card 'Trap Powerless'!"
Once this card is activated, all other Trap Card effects are negated until the end of the turn!

Mr. T pointed directly at Yu Xuan's field. "Negatively activate that Trap Card 'Causal Break'!"

The trap shattered, and the vortex that had opened in the sky immediately contracted and vanished without a trace. The gravitational pull disappeared instantly, and the sea dragon's attack was no longer hindered, hurtling straight towards You Xuan's arena.

"You've got some skills," You Xuan smiled. "However, the trap can only be ineffective after 'severing causality' has taken effect. But this chain isn't over yet."

Mr. T's expression changed slightly, and he said in a deep voice, "That's right, if you continue to chain 'Trap Incapacity' to activate traps, then the subsequent traps can indeed continue to function without being affected. However..."

He grinned as he spoke, his tone defiant.

"You don't have a single face-up card on the field right now, so you should consider the situation before bluffing, right?"

The implication is, do you think you can pull a trap out of your crotch and let me kill you?
However, the next moment You Xuan told him, "Hello, it's possible."

"Activate the Trap Card 'Roar of Pride' from your hand!"

You Xuan immediately played a card from his hand, and Mr. T's expression changed drastically: "What?!"

A trap can be triggered from your hand?
"When the Jetman becomes the target of an attack, he can activate a Trap Card from his hand."

You Xuan explained, while the little jet on the field also showed a smug look on its face.

"Tch, that kind of petty cleverness again," Mr. T said, annoyed.

"The effect of Roar of Pride is activated when, during battle damage calculation, if your monster's ATK is lower than your opponent's monster's, you pay Life Points equal to the difference in ATK. Only during damage calculation, your monster's ATK increases by 300 for the difference between your monster's ATK and your opponent's monster's ATK."

Mr. T: "The Sea Dragon's attack power is 2500, while the Jet Man's is 1200."

“Not bad,” You Xuan said. “Therefore, I will pay the difference in attack power between the two sides as health points to increase the jetpack’s attack power!”

[Yu Xuan, LP4000 → LP2700]

[Jetman, Attack Power 1200 → Attack Power 2800]

They overtook them in one fell swoop!

The jet-powered man's attack power instantly surpassed the others. The small jet suddenly straightened its back and fired two missiles back, which exploded on the sea dragon with a loud bang. The exploding fireballs immediately engulfed the sea dragon, making it look as if the sea dragon had been blasted into pieces inside.

[Mr. T, LP4000 → LP3700]

"very good!"

The Ten Generations of Dao.

"That will defeat that ominous monster!"

However, upon hearing this, Mr. T only chuckled strangely.

Mr. T: Is that really the case?

"what?"

The next moment, they all saw that after the smoke cleared, the sea dragon behind the smoke was still standing, as if it had not been injured at all.

Fubuki: "Why? I should have fallen into Yuugen's trap."

Mr. T laughed heartily: "Then let me mercifully tell you! 'NO' monsters can only be defeated by 'NO' monsters, and cannot be destroyed by any other monsters in battle!"
