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

Chapter 48: An Alternative Five-for-One
I don't know who made this rule, but it seems that all duelists in the underworld carry "Life-Destroying Treasure Notes" as a powerful way to replenish cards.

But if you look closely at the setting, this kind of thing does make sense.

After all, in this hellish place called the underworld, there seem to be only two ways to get cards:

One is modern self-developed:
Representative figure: Hippocampus

Representative works: Mecha Troops, Gear

Although You Ming didn't understand how he managed to pull together a large army of mechas with nothing, his achievements were there.

The other is the traditional school:

Representative figure: Hades
Representative works: Demon deck

Compared to Hipponea's approach of building a modern city in a fantasy world, although Hades was once the King of Hell, the origin of his deck is not only clear, but also relatively easier to understand.

For example, his monsters are his army and his subordinates, and the setting seems to be summoning, while those magic cards and trap cards are other magics he masters.

After all, under such a "world view", the meaning of "taking one's life" seems to be purer than the "heavenly drop" that emphasizes adventure and the uncontrollable "fate".

"I'm paying the price of running out of magic power and being unable to use spells in the future in exchange for the power to cast a large amount of magic now!"

Then, the card that should have been one of Seto Kaiba's symbols in the original work became popular in a weird way. After all, who can blame this world for not having so many fancy ways to pull monsters?
However, this is actually one of the few advantages here.

At least, in such an environment, the effect of the virus can be maximized!

"According to the effect of 'Death Deck Destruction Virus', I will check your hand."

The purple-red liquid flowed, covering the flames gushing from the guillotine, depicting the contents of the four drawn cards.

"Demon Queen of Hellfire"

Dark Bishop Demon

Sudden Return

"Foolish Burial"

The virus passed through without taking any cards with it.

When the scarlet wind dissipated, You Ming saw a smug old face.

"A spell that overdrafts life and sacrifices the future won't be broken so easily by you."

"You blame me for bringing Chess Devil along even though he's such a badass?"

"I will now cast the Burial spell, sending the Demon General Star on standby to the graveyard, and then cast the Fusion spell I set up earlier!"

Hades waved his hand, and the soldier demons on the field jumped directly into the vortex without thinking.

Then, the fifth card in his hand that had never been shown before appeared.

"A cunning demon, huh?"

"The demons, guided by the humiliation of the virus, will awaken the sleeping devil—the Duke of the Dead!"

"Duke of the Dead (lv6)"

Attribute/Dark

"Race/Demon"

"atk/2000 def/1700"

Well, although it looks like a zombie, it is actually a member of the demon clan, and it is also a very old-school member. After all, Tapirara used this card in the animation.

However, the focus now is not on it.

"When the 'Devil of Trickery' is sent into the Abyss, it can cast a spell and send a 'Demon' into my hands!"

"The third one..."

"Then, the Duke of the Dead needs to be in the cemetery to play its role, so I will strip it of its flesh and blood."

The card that can achieve this effect is...

"'Sudden Return' - Through this spell, I sent the 'Undead Duke' into the netherworld, and used its flesh and blood to shape the 'Demon Summoning'!"

"Demon Summoning (lv6)"

Attribute/Dark

"Race/Demon"

"atk/2500 def/1200"

"The Duke of the Dead will carve a path through the cemetery, sacrificing himself (except for the demons) to deliver demons (4 stars and above) that would otherwise require sacrifices to summon into my hands."

Of course, for further operations, he has only one choice:
"Come on, Demon General Star, join my army and destroy your fragile compatriots on the field!"

"Demon General Star (lv6)" "Attribute/Dark"

"Race/Demon"

"atk/2500 def/1200"

'boom'

An almost identical demon returned from the grave and appeared directly on the scene. It destroyed the previous one and stuffed the remains onto the altar of the Pantheon.

"Then, I reshaped the remains of the Demon General Star into the Shadow Knight Demon in my hands."

"Four... No, it's already five."

On the field, the "Demon General Star" stood there.

When You Ming came back to his senses from the casual game of 'counting demons', he saw shadows appearing one after another behind the powerful demon.

"'Shadow Knight Demon', 'Infernal Queen Demon', 'Dark Bishop Demon', and 'Hell Soldier Demon', now I have all four cards in my hand."

Hades showed the cards in his hand one by one.

"I think you must be curious about why I have to collect them all."

"No, I'm not curious at all..."

"This is the magical research I've been conducting, a masterpiece I was able to complete only after my resurrection."

Having said this without paying attention to the people around him, Hades took a deep breath.

"I had intended to use it to challenge that Paladin's rule, and you were the first to witness its gesture."

“I’ve actually seen it…”

"Now, the ceremony is ready. It's time to unveil the hidden card that has been hidden since the beginning."

"never mind……"

Seeing Hades's obviously excited look, You Ming sighed.

Anyway, we have finally reached this step.

"The spell I initially set up was—"Preliminary Preparations for the Ritual." Now that everything is ready, I will use it to perform the "Evil Dragon Resurrection Ritual"!"

Flames spread everywhere, and the blue flames gradually gathered in front of Pluto, forming a pentagram.

"Shadow Knight, your life will turn into a raging wind!"

'whoosh'

"Queen of Karma Fire, your life is ablaze!"

'boom'

"Dark Bishop, Hell Soldiers, your power will bring me flowing water and earth!"

Before they knew it, the four demons had occupied the four corners of the pentagram.

Now, there's only one left...

"Demon General Star, your dark power will lead to true destruction!"

'boom'

The five elements gathered together, and angry cries came from the center of the altar.

The vibration and the sand brought up by the strong wind made You Ming rub his eyes.

Obviously, this is a powerful monster, at least so far it looks very impressive.

"O evil dragon that once destroyed the world, transcend the five elements and appear on this battlefield."

So the question is, does Yu-Gi-Oh have ritual monsters that have a very complicated summoning process and require five exchanges for one?
In fact, it really exists. At least it not only exists in the animation, but also has a familiar name.

"F.G.D..."

Gazing at the faint blue emerging from the pentagram, You Ming narrowed his eyes.

"Five Emperor Dragons!"

　There is indeed something wrong with what I have written recently. I had to entertain relatives a few days ago and didn’t have much time to write.

　　The result is basically what I thought was right. Not only are there many mistakes in the structure and details, but it is also too slow to write as you all said.

　　I'm already trying my best to adjust my condition, and I'll try to speed up.

　　PS: I won’t write about the demon field anymore. This shit not only has no animation reference but is also so salty.
