Duels should be played with a smile.

As we all know, even though some monsters are very difficult to summon, they have been eaten as sacrifices or cost items when necessary, which is not a one-off occurrence.

If even gods can be cooked and eaten, it's perfectly reasonable for a Dragon with a Link 4 rank to be used for gacha pulls!

Moreover, there was another reason for doing this—to bring a smile to Jack's face later.

"Oh no! Player Leyu has made a rather incomprehensible move! He sent both of his powerful monsters, which he had spent a lot of effort creating, to the graveyard! Even if they are negated, the monsters can still act as walls to block damage! Could it be that Player Leyu, who only has 2000 LP, has forgotten that he is actually in a very dangerous situation?"

The commentator's voice represented the thoughts of most of the audience. As a celebrity, Jack's attack was known to many viewers. Now, Leyou only had a Meteorite Derivative with 600 attack power on the field. As long as Jack summoned his Tamashii, his ace monster, Leyou's LP could be easily depleted.

"Now, Leyou only has one card left in his hand. It seems he's going to trust in his bond with the deck! He's putting his hopes of surviving this turn on the cards he draws next!"

"But at the same time, we should also note that Jack only has one card left in his hand! Could it be that Leyou is actually betting that Jack won't be able to set up his combo?"

As everyone knows, commentators often talk nonsense, and as someone who has experienced the feeling of professional commentators manipulating matches, Leyou naturally hopes that the commentator will give him a few more "good luck" moments.

If you say a few more words about your disadvantages, how you're on your last legs, or how you're about to die, you might just draw a few cards later and defeat Jack in this turn.

"Do you have any chain stores selling Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring? I want to draw 4 tickets this time."

With his arms crossed, Leyou, who didn't need to drive the D-Wheel, leisurely watched Jack ahead from behind, his face full of amusement.

Jack only has one card in his hand now, and regardless of whether that card is Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring or not, Leyou is still not at a loss.

So what if I draw 4 fewer cards? If it really is Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring, are you, Jack, going to give me a demonstration of a 0-card hand setup with all cards revealed? Do you think you're some kind of player who can change cards on the spot?

Jack was now in an awkward position. As a former Duel King, he naturally knew how important hand card resources were, but now he could only watch helplessly as Leyou had a great time drawing cards.

"Hmph! Send all your powerful monsters to the graveyard. Even if you draw a card, you won't survive this turn!"

Is that really the case?

The curve of Leyou's lips made Jack's heart skip a beat again. You're already like this, what else can you do?

"If you draw too few cards in one go, you might not survive, but if you draw enough, you'll be fine!"

"C8, activate the last face-down card! [Hope for Survival]! I'm starting my struggle ahead of time!"

“Pay 1000 LP, and based on our current LP difference of 7000, I can draw 3 more cards!”

[Leyou LP: 2000 → 1000]

In card games, there's nothing that a large hand of cards can't solve.

If drawing one card doesn't work, then draw ten or eight cards!

Leyou no longer has any other cards that can be chained. After the chain is completed, the effect will begin to process, and he has already placed his hand on top of the deck to draw cards twice.

Leyou took a deep breath and closed her eyes.

There is a card in my hand that can bring a smile to Jack's face, but in order to ensure that I can activate this card, I must draw a card that will allow me to survive!

Leyou believes that his deck will answer his call!

"I feel it! Now!"

The deck is pulsating! The card in your hand is resonating with another card in the deck!

The card in the deck sensed the call of its sister!

"For true duelists, everything is inevitable!"

"And! As long as I draw enough, I'm sure I'll get it!"

"Seven consecutive flash draws!"

A deep and ethereal aura flashed from Leyou's hand, and he drew a total of seven cards.

Jack was taken aback by this display of power—mainly because drawing seven cards at once was simply outrageous, not to mention that he only had one card left in his hand.

Sometimes, it's just that comparisons are scary.

"It's not over yet, let's continue processing the effect! Now that I have 8 cards in my hand, Dragon Abyss's effect activates normally, banishing your Sword Finger! And dealing you 1200 damage!"

[Jack LP: 8000 → 6800]

“Then comes my Sword Finger. I will negate your Sword Finger by removing the second Sword Finger from my deck!” Jack retorted, not to be outdone.

Leyou shrugged indifferently: "My sword finger was nullified by you, so I don't need to banish the forbidden drop. Then it's your drop's turn, but since there are no effect monsters on the field now, your drop is also useless."

"However, since you sent the Hundred-Headed Dragon to the grave, there are no monsters in my Dragon Abyss that can be excluded, so you don't need to deduct 1200 here."

"But..."

As he spoke, Leyou placed his hand on top of the deck again, causing Jack's eyebrows to twitch.

"C1 effect processing, but don't forget, my field can draw 2 more cards~ Wow, now I have a full 10 cards in my hand~"

With a slightly cheeky tone, Leyou was incredibly happy. With 10 cards in hand, if he were in T1, he could have easily crushed Jack!

But it's not a big problem. It'll be the same when we get to T3. He doesn't believe that Jack, who only has one card, can do anything special.

What else can you possibly pull out with a Tamashii deck?

"Alright, I'm done. You can go now."

With his hands outstretched, Leyou leaned back comfortably in the seat of the D-wheel.

Leyou was quite relaxed, but Jack was having a hard time. He looked at his last card, closed his eyes, and silently recited a name.

A few seconds later, Jack reopened his eyes, his expression resolute.

"A fine duel!" he praised sincerely. "To be so bold as to entrust your victory or defeat to your deck, you are a true duelist!"

"Therefore, I will also defeat you with the utmost seriousness!"

"And...your boldness did indeed save your life!"

While Leyou was still pondering what it meant to have his life saved, Jack had already played his last card.

"Magic Card [Triple Warrior]! Based on its effect, I draw 2 cards!"

Le You was slightly taken aback. After thinking about it carefully, it seemed that if he didn't eat the self-aware Panlong to draw cards, he would really end up like Jack said—his self-aware Panlong would be overpowered in the third battle, and then he would be kicked into the meteorite that attacked the table.

He might just kick himself to death.

maybe.

"The effect of [Crimson Resonator] in your hand can only be activated if you control no monsters; summon this card from your hand!"

[Dark 2★ Demon 300 Defense]

"During the turn this card's effect is activated, you cannot Special Summon Synchro Monsters that are not Dragon-Type DARK monsters from your Extra Deck."

"Such strong self-restraint... please continue your performance~" Leyou held the target card in his hand, just waiting to throw it out once the conditions were met. "My Normal Summon is still available. To be honest, if this monster of yours were in Attack Position, and you sent another monster with over 800 ATK, I might just get kicked to death~"

"Hmph! Just because I acknowledge your abilities doesn't mean your poor acting skills can fool me!"

Jack simply didn't believe that Leyou's hand of cards didn't even have a single card to shield him from attack.

"Moreover, my duels won't be that simple! My deck is with me!"

"Spell Card [Pot of Greed and Greed]! Banish 10 cards from the top face of your deck! Draw 2 cards!"

Ten cards were discarded in a flash, and Jack pulled two cards in one draw.

To this, Leyou can only say, "Easy to pay!"

Your deck is with you, which means you're incredibly good at drawing cards, right?

However, what Leyou can't understand is why the Tamashi deck would include a strong Greedy Pot. If a key card is banished, wouldn't it be a disaster?

Oh, no, as long as the synergy with the deck is high enough, then the excluded cards will just be useless.

Got it, the King's Duel actually refers to the Dog-Taking Showdown, oh well then.

Jack's ability to snatch the dog drew Leyou's attention, but Jack's dog-snatching behavior continued.

He showed Leyou a card, which made Leyou click his tongue in disbelief, and for a moment he didn't know what to say to complain.

"The effect of [Diviner Witch Little Earth] in your hand: When you draw this card, you can reveal it to your opponent to activate this effect; summon this card from your hand!"

[Earth, 6★, Mage, Defense 0]

"Then there's the second effect: if this card is successfully summoned from the hand, this effect can be activated, and both players draw one card from their decks!"

Allowing the opponent to draw cards is obviously a major side effect, but for Jack right now, having both of them draw cards together is clearly more beneficial than harmful.

Leyou drew a card as well, but didn't get a card like Meteor, G, or Ash that could stop Jack's game. However, he wasn't thinking about the duel at the moment, but about the fortune-telling witch's spirit standing on Jack's shoulder.

Why would a Tamashi deck include this thing? But in Jack's case, it can be reasonably explained as his wife's card.

Jack's character is modeled after Kaiba's wife, Card. It's reasonable for Jack to use his wife's Card!

However, what Leyou really wants to complain about is why Jack recruited Crimson ahead of time.

Crimson's Special Summon requires an empty field, while the Divination Witch's Special Summon must be performed immediately upon drawing the character. If you don't perform the Special Summon beforehand, you'll be stuck and unable to escape.

It's impossible that you foresaw in advance that you would draw the fortune-telling witch next.

That just goes to show how strong the synergy is in the deck.

Chapter 74 What?! This thing's defense is below 1500?!

"It's just that my deck isn't compatible with Firewall Dragon, Despair God, and Snow Woman, otherwise I would have added them! And then played them in duels!"

"It's just showing off your love! Anyone can do that!"

"Just you wait... I'll give you your precious little one later!"

Leyou muttered to himself quietly. He wasn't a flashy person, so there was no way he would say something that even social terrorists might not say in front of so many people.

"The conditions have been met! Your duel was quite good, but that's all. Now, all I need to do is summon my Tamashii to defeat you!"

Jack was in high spirits at the moment. Using his wife's card to summon his own Tamashi and then defeating his opponent was indeed very satisfying.

"Really? I just drew so many cards, plus the one you gave me. Are you sure I'll be defeated so easily?"

"Hmph! Enough said. Watch closely, this is the king's synchronization!"

With a cold snort, Jack was about to call out to his Tamashi, but was interrupted by Leyou.

"Wait! I forgot to activate my effect while we were chatting. I have an effect to activate after your Witch's card draw effect is processed!"

Under Jack's bewildered gaze, Leyou smiled and tossed out a handkerchief.

A hand-shaped pit that many people actually know about but haven't seen much of.
