Yu-Gi-Oh! Your Friends Are Fighting Out of the Underworld

Chapter 18 Kaiba Corporation's Masterpiece

"Start Admiral Destroyer Spinner (lv8)"

"Attribute/Earth"

Race/Mechanical

"atk/2500 def/2500"

There were no special effects or projections. In this simplest competition, there was only the sound of cards hitting the table.

But You Ming felt a burning pain on his face, as if the robot in the card picture had stretched out its big hand and slapped him in the face.

"Gear Monster..."

"What's wrong?"

"...No, it's nothing."

Although I really want to complain about something, but after thinking about it carefully, I can only swallow my anger and accept the current situation.

After all, no one stipulates that the eldest son of the Haima Group must use the "Creation of Heaven and Earth" set, right?
And if I had to say something...

“I don’t think I’ve seen this card before.”

Although the gear (parts) monster has existed since the DM era, I believe most people's impression of it remains on the three red, yellow and green gears.

After all, Xiaobiao contributed to a wonderful duel with it, and mutual retrieval also gave birth to things like blood-generation gears.

But not to mention the fact that in reality, dog cards are used to cheat people out of money, in fact, in the animation timeline, it was not until the movie Dark Dimension that gold and silver parts and classic trap monsters appeared.

If we apply this logic...

"Isn't this the International Illusion Society's card?"

"Yes."

Noa said with a smile.

"In order to have enough power to fight against the harsh environment here and to have the power to protect ourselves, we can't just rely on those old-fashioned cards, so we have to focus on developing new cards with various effects."

Well...how should I put it, this sounds a bit like an arms race.

But putting this point aside, Noah mentioned a key fact.

"So, this is the card you made?"

"Well, I believe you have seen the 'motors' used by Keith. They are also our work, but most of them are still in the testing phase and are not very stable yet."

"I see. So that means you have a lot of new cards here..."

In response, Noa just smiled.

Although he did not respond directly, he slowly showed a card.

"Now I activate the effect of this card."

That's a monster.

"[Legion Command Spinner]—This card can equip a previously consumed "Gear" monster and then..."

Noah took a picture of it slowly.

"Special summons."

"Start the Captain Command Spinner (lv4)"

"Attribute/Earth"

Race/Mechanical

"atk/0 def/2000"

Then, he moved the two monsters that had been thrown into the Graveyard area and placed them in the Magic Trap area.

"Equip the Gear Warrior and Green Gear in my Graveyard as Equipment Cards. Each time a Gear Monster is absorbed by Starter Soldier, its attack power increases by 1000 points, so its attack power is 2000."

"Start the Captain"

"atk/0→2000"

Just like that, in just the first round, two monsters were already standing on Noa's field.

But precisely because it was the first round, he would never waste a lot of resources on piling up monsters.

"Both monsters have high attack power. It would be a shame if they were to be eliminated like this."

"Yes, so I need to strengthen my defense—with this card."

'patta'

The card slowly fell down. Although there was still no special effect, You Ming couldn't take his eyes off it.

That card is...

"Permanent magic 'Mecha unit's defensive circle'."

Although it was just a card, You Ming always felt that he could see a steel cannon rising up and clearing out a vacuum zone with lasers.

"As long as I have a Level 7 or higher Machine-Type monster on my field, you cannot target a Level 6 or lower Machine-Type monster on my field with your attacks or effects."

"Mecha..."

Looking at the familiar field, You Ming's expression inevitably became a little subtle.

"Is this also the work of Kaiba Corporation?"

"Yes, I think you should know that our Haiba Group is originally an arms company."

It sounds like there is nothing wrong with an arms company making mechas, but You Ming just feels like there is something stuck in his throat.

And in the inexplicable silence, Noah continued his operation:
"I haven't Normal Summoned this turn, so I'm going to summon 'Red Gear' from my hand in Defense Position." 'Red Gear'

"Attribute/Earth"

Race/Mechanical

"atk/1300 def/1500"

After taking down the third horizontal monster, he picked up his deck.

"When Red Gear is successfully summoned, I can add a Yellow Gear from my deck to my hand."

Now, his chance to be summoned has been used up.

With that, excluding the "Yellow Gear" that was practically an open card, he only had one card left in his hand.

And that last card is...

"Perpetual Magic: 'Mechanical Night'."

'patta'

'Crack'

When the card fell, You Ming seemed to hear the sound of gears meshing, and a huge factory was running.

"As long as this card is on the field, the face-up monsters on the field will be transformed into Machine-type monsters, and this card will then support our battle situation."

As for how to support, there is a simplest rule in the card game.

"The attack and defense of our Machine-type monsters increase by 500 points, while the monsters you summon decrease by 500 points."

Red Gear

"def/1500→2000"

"Start the Captain"

"atk/2000→2500"

"Start the Admiral"

"atk/2500→3000"

Holding the only remaining card in her hand, Noa smiled slightly.

"That's the end of my round."

In the end, three monsters stood on the opposite field, and none of them had an attack or defense power lower than 2000. At the same time, there was a joint defense of magic cards in the backfield.

"Can you show me the card effect?"

"please."

You Ming picked up the "Start-Up Admiral" on the field. The effect text was the same as he knew - whether it was an equipment card or a monster card, as long as there was a "Gear" monster on the field, this card would not be destroyed by battle or effect.

That is to say...

"At that time, if I think from a conventional perspective, I can only choose to attack it or target the effect at it, but it will not be destroyed by the battle or the effect. Even if it is destroyed..."

You Ming picked up the "Mecha Unit's Defense Circle"

"This card can also quickly retrieve monsters from the graveyard."

"Yes, this is me... no, I should say the defense circle that Kaiba Group has established now."

Looking at Noa's confident smile, You Ming's expression became subtle.

He suddenly had a feeling that his identity as a time traveler was fake.

System, the cards used by others are better than the ones you sell, do you have any idea about this?

"Are you bothered?"

Noah seemed to have noticed something.

When You Ming put the "Starting Admiral" back, he saw the boy's apologetic expression.

"Life here doesn't allow us to unfold slowly and test each other like in real life. This dark game will torture our spirit and will, so we have become accustomed to giving it our all from the very beginning... I hope you won't regard this as an insult."

Oh, you also know that using this kind of thing is a dimensionality reduction attack?
Not only does it directly throw 2 to pull out a big guy with 2500 points and a card-blasting effect, but it also limits the attack and effect targets, and raises the value to 3000 points.

but……

"Of course not. Rather, this is what makes it challenging."

Glancing at his hand card, You Ming laughed.

"Only by defeating a strong enemy can you feel a sense of accomplishment, right?"

"It's great that you think so."

"Well, without further ado, I'll get started."

Facing Noa's gaze, You Ming reached out towards his deck.

"My turn, draw a card."

After glancing at the card he had drawn, he added it to his hand.

then……

"I cover three cards, then activate the magic card."

He snapped a card.
