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

Chapter 353 The Chaos Dragon
As one of the earliest animated works, many of the popular elements in DM are destined to be paid tribute to by later works.

For example, there's the classic character design of a proud nemesis who quickly usurps the second male lead's position, the fixed template of "protagonist-level ATK," and of course, there's the indispensable element of reusing monster images.

In the original game, after the card game route was given a positive turn due to popularity issues, the three Egyptian God cards, which appeared throughout the entire series starting from Duel City, gained unimaginable popularity.

Even though only Obelisk appeared in the original manga, the anime redesigned and restructured the story so that all three Egyptian God cards would appear one by one.

While there were some aspects worth criticizing, that battle did indeed elevate the character and enrich the value of Yugi Muto's (the main character's) sparse achievements.

So much so that even the sequel, whose plot was actually incredibly bad, tried to pay homage to this point—GX.

Corresponding to the three Egyptian God cards, the one that appears in the sequel is this thing:

""Three Phantom Demons". "

However, compared to the meticulously designed and interconnected backstory of the original author in DM, the Three Phantoms themselves lack a detailed background.

Given GX's fragmented storyline, its treatment is naturally hard to describe.

The opening was indeed very high-class, saying that some kind of medicine could only break the seal by absorbing the life force of all the elves in the world. But in the end, he turned into the Star Wrath of a certain yandere dragon. After the other party found true love again, he disappeared again, seemingly eating sand in some corner of another world.

But of course, no matter what, You Ming only wants to ask one question right now:
"What exactly is the connection between this thing and 'chaos'?"

"Those are angels."

"what?"

The voice that reached his ears startled You Ming. In the surging flames, he saw the dark magician beside him with a solemn expression:

“It… no, those three were supposed to be powerful angels, but now their forms have been twisted, turning them into the monsters they are today.”

"what?"

Listening to the black magician's words, Yu Ming could only feel this absurdity:

"...So the Three Phantom Demons didn't just use angel names to look cool?"

"what are you talking about."

Perhaps it was that sudden, interrupting comment that momentarily swayed the Black Magician's thoughts.

but……

"But no matter what, although they are completely unconscious, they are definitely formidable enemies. If we don't find a way to break this situation..."

'Boom'

Suddenly, a thunderous roar resounded.

The sound interrupted the magician's voice and brought a new wave of pressure.

"what is this?"

"It's anger."

Meeting the black magician's wary expression, You Ming merely scoffed:
"Although a certain idiot has fallen into my hands, it has never been willing to put in its best effort because of some conflicting issues."

The duelist glanced at the faintly glowing deck reel on his body, and his expression gradually became strange:
"Now, I think it should be unable to hold back any longer."

'boom'

Finally, the surging golden lightning directly shattered the super-fiery flames that seemed to be burning everything.

By the time the dark magician came to his senses, another crimson figure had already spiraled upwards:

"That's... a god of the present world?!"

"Just a traitorous dragon"—that's what Yu Ming wanted to say, but it seems a bit out of place now?
So……

"Go, Osiris."

Amidst the roar, the gods symbolizing the sky and the underworld spread their wings, and fierce thunder unleashed the fury of the genuine product against the counterfeit.

Without a doubt, compared to the three Phantom Demons who need to absorb life force to unleash their power in the setting, the Sky Dragon, as a vessel for the 'manifestation of the gods' and as the original 'authentic' version, is clearly superior to the replica of the Divine Flame Emperor.

In just a few exchanges, the superconducting wave had already torn the super flame wave to shreds, and the Divine Flame Emperor was torn apart and wounded all over by the enraged Osiris.

But the next moment, a giant golden hand struck directly, grabbing the head of the phantom god before he could react.

At that moment, after the smoke and dust from the explosion had completely dissipated, an even larger phantom appeared—it was unknown when, but the Divine Flame Emperor had been reduced from a main body to some kind of pieced-together component.

The dragon's head, which should have been ferocious, was instead attached to the twisted left arm, while the strong right hand gripped the sky dragon's head tightly.

"that is……"

"That's the 'Chaotic Illusion Demon,' a product of the fusion of three angels, the 'source of life for the elven realm' envisioned by Senior Sister." "Chaotic Illusion Demon - Amitair"—come to think of it, the prototype for this thing's name does indeed seem to be the angel in charge of childbirth?

However, including other phantoms, the appearance of these things is completely unrelated to the conventional understanding of things with pure white wings.

"I wonder what Michael would think if he saw this."

Then, his gaze shifted downwards.

"Is there any other way?"

"If this continues, we should attack first..."

Meeting the gazes of the black magician and his disciple, You Ming simply sighed.

"I think it's probably gone."

'boom'

With a muffled thud, Osiris's body fell from the sky like a kite with a broken string, eventually turning back into a card and falling into the Duel Disk.

"..."

At that moment, time seemed to stand still.

Sensing the god's almost humiliating rage, You Ming's expression gradually became strange:

"If you're going to put it in the deck, then please don't block my hand when it comes out."

Osiris: ?
Randomly, the global battlefield where the struggle for dominance finally came to an end.

[Witch LP: 4000]

【Youming LP: 4000】

As Yu Ming took the first five cards into his hand, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

Although I hate to admit it, given the current situation, even if he attacks first, he probably won't gain any advantage.

'boom'

A violent, muffled thud echoed. The duelist looked directly upwards, where, in the completely floating universe, the Heavenly Demoness standing before the Chaos Illusion Demon merely raised her arm:

"First move - draw a card."

Her crimson eyes swept over the card in her hand, and she narrowed them:

"I have mastered the power of time—the Continuous Spell 'Future Fusion,' which sends two Normal Monsters from my Deck to the Graveyard as Fusion Materials, and after two turns, Fusion Summons—'The Ultimate of Nothingness.'"

Amidst the interplay of black and white, the illusory image of a peacock spreading its tail feathers flashed by, but the ethereal aura emanating from it sent chills down one's spine.

"This is the embodiment of my senior sister's ultimate philosophy, which is that everything will eventually return to nothingness."

"But even in nothingness, possibilities are hidden..."

In layman's terms:
"Whether it appears or not is not important; what is important is what she actually piled up."

"Then, I activated 'Magic Flowerpot,' sending the Continuous Spell 'Future Fusion' to the Graveyard, drawing two cards from my Deck (original effect), and then..."

Suddenly, a sinister howl echoed throughout the universe.

Amidst the interplay of light and darkness, a ferocious behemoth—a dragon—gradually reveals its form.

"Speaking of which, I think there's one question I haven't asked yet."

"what?"

"If the 'Chaos Phantom' merely symbolizes the origin, how can she restore the world to its original state?"

"It is still the power of chaos."

"That's what the black magician replied."

"Your world has warriors who created the heavens and the earth, while the elven realm has legends of dragons that are the pillars of the world."

So... is it that one?

"I will Special Summon this creature, excluding the Light-attribute 'Little Angel' and the Dark-attribute 'Summoned Demon' from my graveyard."

The interplay of black and white light formed a jet-black sphere, and then, a robust monster, a colossal dragon, revealed its ferocious form:
"The Chaos Emperor Dragon - Messenger of the End!"
