Who asked him to play Yu-Gi-Oh!

Chapter 1416 Hero
"Heroic Challenger - Double Pikeman!" Ghosh laughed. "Double Pikeman is a card that allows one monster to be used as two when performing an Xyz Summon! (Animation effect)"

Therefore, I can use two spearmen as two monsters.”

“Sorry, that won’t work.” You Xuan chuckled and pointed to the face-down card on his field. “The moment you summoned your two spearmen, my face-down card was already activated.”

Trap card 'Electric Net Pitfall'.

This card can be activated when your opponent Special Summons monsters from their Deck or Graveyard. Banish those Special Summons monsters face-down from their deck!

Ghosh: "!"

One of them can be used as two Xyz Materials, basically transforming into an Xyz Monster with just one card, making it one of Ghosh's favorite heroes. However, this time the Twin Spearmen met their match, falling directly into a deep pit upon landing and being sent to another dimension.

"cut"

It was like getting one Xyz Monster killed right after landing, so Gorsh was naturally unhappy, but he still continued to operate.

"Stack up Heroic Challenger: Thousand Blade Soldier and Assault Halberdier! Use two monsters to build a stacking network, then Xyz Summon—"

—Heroic Champion, King of the Archers!!!

Two monsters vanished into the overlapping network of light, transforming into beams of light. A dazzling golden light suddenly erupted from the vortex, and the Heroic Archer King descended onto the battlefield, riding on molten energy ripples. The Heroic Champion was clad in black and gold armor, his face completely obscured by a horned helmet. His warhorse seemed to shatter spatial ripples, its hooves ablaze with pale white flames. Its white tail swept across the ground like solidified moonlight, the resulting wind pressure swirling rubble into spirals. The Heroic Archer King raised his massive steel bow, the bowstring vibrating with a dragon-like hum.

[Heroic Champion - King of the Bows, Attack Power 2100]

Heroic Champions, that's Ghosh's Ace Series.

The Heroic Champion deck has left a significant mark on real-world card battles. Firstly, Ghosh's ace in the anime, "Heroic Champion: Steelbreaker King," served as a versatile attacker during the Xyz era, appearing as a guest in countless decks.

Although the Steelbreaker Sword King is only a Tier 4 Xyz with a base attack power of 2000, its attack power can be doubled by removing Xyz materials. This means that duelists can easily obtain attack power equivalent to Obelisk's, which was quite popular in the Xyz era.

Although the Steel Sword King was quickly phased out with each version update, a new big brother card from the Heroes series soon caught the attention of card game enthusiasts years later, and even became a popular meme in the card game community, gaining a lot of popularity.

Hero Champion Legendary Big Brother, No. 86 Hero Champion - Gun King Annihilation.

The Summoning condition is a maximum of five Level 4 Warrior-Type monsters with a base ATK of 1500. This card gains the following effects depending on whether it has one to five or more Xyz Materials.

It cannot be destroyed by battle, gains 1500 attack and defense, is unaffected by any card effects, prevents the opponent from summoning or special summoning monsters, and can destroy all cards on the opponent's field once per turn without conditions.

In short, it can be summed up in two words: invincible.

Firstly, it is unaffected by any card effects, and secondly, it cannot be destroyed in battle. This level of resistance is practically invincible. Even the anime effect "Blue-Eyes Light Dragon," which fans often refer to as the ceiling of resistance, only had absolute effect resistance; as long as the attack power exceeds its, it can be defeated.

But not with the Gun King. If a monster only has the resistance to "cannot be destroyed by battle," it's generally considered trash by experienced players, one of the most useless resistances. But if a monster is both "unaffected by effects" and "cannot be destroyed by battle," then its value skyrockets.

What? You mean eat it with the all-powerful Lava Demon or the sea turtle?
Sorry, but even the omnipotent turtle is powerless against the invincible Gun King this time. Because the Gun King's effect clearly states, "The opponent cannot summon monsters."

You've been stripped of even the right to summon monsters, yet you still dare to dream of using a sea turtle to devour the noble Gun King?

Of course, Yu-Gi-Oh! has been around for so many years, and with its massive card pool and complex K-language rules, even the seemingly invincible Lancer King isn't completely unbeatable; there are ways to counter it. But this is already a monster in the Yu-Gi-Oh! universe that's almost invincible.

However, the Gun King has been imprisoned for many years and has long been a banned card.

Although this card hasn't appeared in the anime, Gun King is clearly the card that Ghosh is currently holding, or rather, a card that Ghosh might possess in the future. Since Ghosh has delivered this opportunity to his doorstep, Yu Xuan naturally won't let it slip by. He not only wants to seize this opportunity but also tries to win him over, hoping to create a Gun King card himself.

At this moment, Ghosh had no idea what You Xuan was thinking. He only felt that the other person's gaze, which seemed to be filled with some kind of expectation and appreciation, made him feel a little uncomfortable.

"Tch, what's wrong with this guy?"

Ghosh frowned.

"Attack with Heroic Champion - Archer King, attack 'Ravenous Insect Bewitching Demon'!"

The King of England drew his bow and nocked an arrow, the bowstring taut, golden arrow crackling with arcs of electricity, seemingly poised to be released at any moment.

However, Yu Xuan snapped his fingers: "Then activate the face-down card, the trap card 'Piercing Trap Hole'!"
When an opponent's monster is Summoned or Special Summoned this turn declares an attack, destroy that attacking monster and inflict damage to your opponent equal to half of the destroyed monster's original ATK!

Ghosh: "Nani!?"

At that moment, the King of England's bowstring was fully drawn, and the arrow seemed ready to be released. But in that instant, his horse suddenly lurched to the side, its hooves sinking into a gaping hole in the ground. The hole was already riddled with sharp steel blades, which instantly pierced him and his horse, leaving them riddled with arrows.

boom!

"Mr. Ghosh's reckless attack won't touch my lovely trolls," You Xuan smiled.

The bewitching girl on the field seemed quite pleased with herself, lying on the ground with her two snow-white legs dangling in the air, her expression mocking.

"Tch, it's just a trap that worked," Ghosh said unhappily. "Then face down three cards, end of turn."

“Then it’s my turn, draw a card,” You Xuan said. “Activate the spell card ‘Angel’s Charity’, draw three cards from the deck, and then discard two cards from your hand.”

He changed his hand, then surveyed his opponent's field: "There are no monsters on the field, but judging from the looks of it, they probably have defensive cards hidden in their back row."
You Xuan: "I usually summon the 'Fly Hell Insect Bewitching Demon'!"

A new bewitching loli has appeared. This one looks smaller, barefoot and with bare legs, and has an innocent and adorable appearance.

[Fly Prison Insect Bewitching Demon, Attack Power 1700]

Yu Xuan: "The effect of Fly Prison Trap Monster: When this card is successfully Summoned, you can Special Summon 1 Trap Monster from your Graveyard to the field in Defense Position."

"The effect of a Special Summon, huh? Then at this very moment, my face-down card is activated too!"

Ghosh waved his hand.

"Activate the face-down card, Trap Card 'Xyz Resurrection'!"
Revive one Xyz Monster from your Graveyard to the field, and then place this card under that monster as Xyz Material!

"The effect of Super Regeneration has brought 'Heroic Champion - King of the Bow' back to life from the graveyard!"

A vortex of revival opened up on the ground, unleashing a domineering aura. The heroic warrior, riding a warhorse and wielding a bow, reborn once more, his bow whistling through the air as it circled twice. The already activated trap card was quickly enveloped in golden light, transforming into Xyz Material that flew and swirled around the Heroic Champion.
