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

Chapter 280 The Pharaoh's Black Magic
In the blink of an eye, countless changes had occurred on the battlefield known as the duel.

Light and darkness intertwined, a ritual site, but once the intense magic that emerged from the "Black Magician's" hands dissipated, all the changes vanished.

"Was the search blocked...?"

Calmly placing the ineffective spell card into the graveyard, Yumei narrowed his eyes.

"But then again, your knowledge of the 'Chaos Warrior' should only be limited to that Ritual Monster, right...? No, I do recall you having the 'Emperor of Creation'?"

Meeting the Pharaoh's gaze, which held both doubt and solemnity, You Ming couldn't help but scratch his cheek.

"But it doesn't matter. Since you're preventing me from adding ritual spells to my hand, it means you don't have any traps in your back row that target summons, right?"

"Could it be that you can still..."

"Activate the face-down card—'Rough Men in a Crowd'—target my Warrior-Type monster 'Knight of the Midnight' on my field, and Special Summon one EARTH monster of the same type and lower Level."

"But the 'Night Knight' is a lower-class monster."

"That's right, his level is 4, so I'll Special Summon his level 3 'Magic Attacker'."

"Magic Attack Warrior (lv3)"

"Attribute/Earth"

Race/Warrior

"atk/600 def/200"

"Attack power is only 600, and it's in attack mode... could it be..."

"Battle phase."

Meeting the Pharaoh's solemn gaze, Youming made his declaration.

"The 'Magic Attacker' attacks the 'Great Shield Guardian'!"

"The 'Giant Shield Guardian' has a defense of 2600, while your monster only has 600 attack power!"

Upon seeing this, Jonouchi couldn't help but shout.

He was puzzled by this, but the answer soon became clear through reality.

'boom'

Small bolts of lightning struck the defender's massive shield, but the thick barrier failed to mount any significant counterattack.

The lightning dissipated as if nothing had happened, and as for the reason...

"The damage I took from the 'Magic Attack Soldier' ​​was 0."

"I see, so this is your strategy: to launch an attack first using a 'magic attacker' that won't cause harm, and then..."

‘Kaka’

As if by some uncontrollable force, the once indestructible defender suddenly straightened up, exposing its vulnerable body from behind the giant shield.

"Giant Shield Guardian" - Although as a low-level 4-star monster, it possesses superb defensive capabilities that most high-level monsters can only look on with envy, it also has a fatal weakness.

"The 'Giant Shield Guardian' will abandon its defensive stance after being attacked."

"Giant Shield Guardian"

"atk/100"

"Then, the 'Night Knight' will continue its attack."

'Shua La'

1600vs100
The white horseman flashed past, and the black spearhead tore him to shreds.

The impact then spread.

Yugi Muto's LP: 4000 → 2500

"Well……"

Feeling the intense tremor, the Pharaoh instinctively clutched his chest, which was aching inexplicably.

But at this moment, he was not most concerned about himself.

"Partner, how are you?"

"I...I didn't feel anything, but you..."

"I am fine."

"Is it."

The voice that came from the depths of his heart relieved the Pharaoh.

"Then it seems he was right after all; this trial of duel belongs only to me!"

His expression hardened, and he waved his hand dismissively:
"And so, at this very moment, my final trap card was activated—'Dark Frontier'."

After fully digesting the shock of the battle, the Pharaoh loudly proclaimed:

"When I take damage, Special Summon a DARK Spellcaster from my Deck whose ATK is equal to the damage value!"

A witch slowly emerged from the pitch-black earth:
"With this effect, I Special Summon 'The Witch of the Dark Forest' in Defense Position!"

"The Witch of the Black Forest (lv4)" "def/1200"

"Tsk..."

Seeing the three-eyed witch with her arms crossed, You Ming frowned.

"So, in the end, they still couldn't resolve this issue..."

From a strategic perspective, he certainly wouldn't want any monsters remaining on the opponent's field—especially not such troublesome ones.

But now...

"That's probably the only way."

He glanced at the seemingly abundant but mostly cumbersome cards in his hand and frowned.

"I'll end this round now."

"Then, my turn, draw a card!"

Without any hesitation, the resolute Pharaoh quickly took control of the duel.

Then, he took a deep breath:

"I activate 'Soul Exchange' (original card), exchanging the souls of monsters in my Graveyard with those on the field (original effect)."

Of course, while it's called a soul exchange, in the language of composite rules, it means sending a monster on the field to the graveyard and Special Summoning a monster from the graveyard.

However, there should only be one monster in his grave now.

"So you want to resummon the 'Great Shield Guardian'?"

“No, my loyal servant was already waiting at the gates of the underworld via the ‘magical interference array.’”

As for the Pharaoh's strongest 'servant,' it should only be that guy.

"Dark Magician, appear! Dark Magician!"

Dark Magician (lv7)

Attribute/Dark

"Race/Magician"

"atk/2500 def/2100"

When the witch faded away, the most powerful wizard of the Black Demon Clan made his appearance directly through that unfathomable soul magic.

"Then, based on the effect of 'The Witch of the Dark Forest,' when she is sent to the Graveyard, I add a monster with less than 1500 DEF to my hand."

With a flick of the wand, a figure appeared directly from the converging magic circle, revealing a small, furry ball within it.

"With this effect, I'm adding 'Kuriboh' to my hand."

"A hand trap..."

"It's not over yet. The card I drew earlier symbolizes the bonds of the Dark Demon race—'The Bond Between Master and Disciple.' Activating it will allow me to summon the strongest wizard's only disciple!"

Speaking of her, probably everyone knows her.

With an unprecedented level of popularity throughout the entire series, she surpasses all the female characters!
"The Dark Magician Girl!"

"Black Magician Girl (lv6)"

Attribute/Dark

Race/Magician

"atk/2000 def/1700"

"Wow, we finally have a chance to get out... Wait, what are we facing?!"

Despite being incredibly lively at first, the priestess, still confused after seeing the situation on the field, couldn't help but lower her magic hat.

But soon, the magician, who was always protective of his own, reached out and blocked her behind him.

"master……"

"Calm down, Mana, the King still needs your strength."

"my power?"

"When the Dark Magicians gather, they will unleash destructive power—based on the effect of 'Master-Disciple Bond,' after summoning 'Dark Magician Girl,' I set 'Dark Magician Blast' from my deck onto the field."

That card...

"If I remember correctly, it's the exclusive magic of the 'Dark Magician Girl'?"

“That’s right, so with ‘Dark Magician Girl’ present, I’m activating this face-down card right now.”

Typically, the magic flips, and the dark magician girl on the field raises her slightly cute wand.

However, what it gathered was brutal black magic:
"Dark Magic Blast" - Destroy all face-up monsters on your opponent's field!

'boom'
