Duels should be played with a smile.

Her power was never meant for fighting.

But precisely because of this, she relinquished the power to harm others, and in return, gained terrifying abilities.

"This is your trump card monster?! You..."

The seahorse paused, wanting to say something more, but forcibly held back. He had now learned that when he saw a monster, he would not first consider its attack and defense stats, but rather what effects the monster had.

"That's right, this is my trump card monster, specially prepared for you. However, to unleash its terrifying power, we'll need to wait a little while. Before that... let's activate its other ability first."

"Once per turn, target 1 face-up monster you control and gain Life Points equal to half of that monster's ATK. I target Dagini on the field and gain 1350 LP."

"The Light of Redemption!"

Shadi Mi raised her four arms high, and the red cloak behind her, symbolizing her status as a powerful figure, moved without wind, fluttering in the breeze. A pale red beam of light, guided by her, connected Leyou and Dajini.

[Leyou LP: 8000 → 9350]

"So strong! So many LP, and it still survived being attacked twice by the Titans!" Jonouchi clenched his fist in the audience. He was happy whenever he saw Kaiba's opponent gain an advantage.

But his joy didn't last long, as a new question arose: "How can Leyou defeat the Giant Warrior? How can he win?"

"Seahorse! Are you thinking about how I'm going to win? Don't panic, I'm about to show you!"

"I'm going straight to the combat rank!"

With a wave of his hand, he announced the start of the battle. Leyou, along with three monsters whose combined attack power was no match for the Giant Warrior, prepared to launch an attack on the invincible God Card.

"Seto Kaiba! Do you know the simplest way to defeat a god?"

The three weak monsters were not only inferior in attack power, but also several levels smaller in size.

Standing behind them, Leyou did not appear to be a weakling at all, but rather a confident rebel.

“The simplest... is nothing more than the same tricks you used before.” Kaiba replied after a moment’s thought. He was initially a little worried that Leyou would use those tricks again, but he relaxed after seeing Leyou enter the battle.

The God Card has strong resistance, but it's not too difficult to deal with as long as you bypass the resistance.

"Then you're sorely mistaken!" Leyou waved his hand with a smile. "The simplest and most direct way is always: combat destruction!"

"Tajini! Attack the Titans! The war to slay the gods begins now!"

Raising his hand and pointing at the giant warrior guarding the seahorse, Leyou issued the order to attack.

"Are you crazy?! The Titan has a whopping 4000 attack power, while your monster only has 2700, and you're ignoring all my other monsters and going straight for the Titan... Do you have some other tricks up your sleeve?!"

"Of course!"

The electronic angels, descending in the name of demons and gods, are ready to fight against the gods with their still weak bodies and not-so-sharp weapons.

If we go there now, we will never return.

However, behind every Duel Monster, there is always a duelist who trusts her!

"Kaiba! My monster may not have the power of a god, but as long as I haven't fallen and I still have strength left, I will do everything in my power to support them, even if it costs me my life, to seize victory!"

"Go forth, Dagini! I swear by my blood! You will return victorious!"

"I activate a Quick-Play Spell Card from my hand!"

"【Souls colliding】!"

"This can only be activated during damage calculation when my attack-stat monster battles an opponent's attack-stat monster with a higher attack value!"

"The monster with the lower attack power in a battle can pay 500 LP to increase that monster's attack power by 500 during damage calculation!"

"This effect can be activated an unlimited number of times until both parties stop paying!"

"Seahorse! Do you dare to do what I did and offer your life and soul in this battle between mortals and gods?!"

"I'll drink first!"

"I'll pay 500 LP! To increase Dajini's attack power by 500!"

"Because even after the payment, Dajini's attack power is still lower, I can pay again until Dajini's attack power is higher!"

[Leyou LP: 9350 → 7850]

[Dajini's attack power: 2700 → 4200]

"Come on, seahorse! Burn with your life!"

"Come on, Kaiba! Is your proud spirit enough to sustain you until the end of this battle?!"

At the top of the Duel Tower, the blade of the demon god was already stained with blood, having been stained with the blood of its own master before drinking the blood of its enemies.

I swear by my blood! We will surely return victorious!

Against the backdrop of blood, the spirits and deities seemed to gain even greater power.

Without batting an eye, Leyou paid 1500 LP to increase the power of his monster.

However, in stark contrast to the surging momentum of Leyou, the situation on Haima's side was eerily quiet.

Haima LP: 2900

[Giant Warrior Attack Power: 4000]

No matter how much Kaiba longed to fight Leyou, how much he wanted to risk his life and burn his soul in battle, he had to forcibly suppress the boiling passion in his heart.

A duel can be exhilarating, but sometimes, to achieve victory, it must be made cold.

Only by discarding unnecessary emotions, weighing gains and losses in the calmest way, and making the best choice in every decision, can we ensure that we get closer to victory.

"Come! Seahorse! Offer your blood, offer your soul, give your life for your Titan Warrior, and fight with all your might!"

"This is not just a battle between monsters, but a clash between duelists!"

Leyou's impassioned speech not only stirred up Haima's emotions, but also attracted and inspired everyone who watched the live broadcast of him challenging God with his life.

But no matter how passionate Leyou's words were, the seahorse remained unmoved.

“I will not pay LP.”

Words, calm to the point of being cold, came from the seahorse. Unable to get support from its master, the Titan could only watch helplessly as its opponent slowly grew stronger, stronger than itself.

Powerful enough to pull himself, the god, down from his pedestal.

"What a pity." Leyou shook his head. "In that case, just watch as your Colossus is defeated by mortals!"

"Dajini! Bring me victory!"

The electronic angel's blood-stained weapon radiated endless killing intent. She leaped high into the air, reaching a height even greater than that of a god, before descending from the sky.

She transformed herself into a shooting star, and from the moment her weapon was drawn, she never thought of looking back.

She forged ahead relentlessly.

She returned victorious.

The three weapons were thrust into the body of the Colossus, and the blue Colossus shattered like fragile glass, disappearing from sight.

"The follow-up effect of 【Colliding Souls】 is that the battle damage for both sides in that battle becomes 0, and after damage calculation, all cards on the field of the player whose monster was destroyed in that battle are sent to the Graveyard."

With a sigh of regret, Leyou casually explained the subsequent effects.

His previous impassioned demeanor wasn't entirely an act, but at least half of it was.

The goal is to get Haima all excited and involved, and to make him pay LP along with Leyou – after all, Leyou has over 9000 here, so he's bound to win no matter what.

Kaiba didn't have much LP left to begin with. If he got carried away and followed Leyou's lead a few times, by the time the battle ended and the effects were cleared, Kaiba's field would be completely empty, and he would only have a maximum of 400 LP left. As long as Satemi kicked him, Kaiba would be gone.

It's a pity, it seems his acting skills are still lacking.

Indeed, to be a qualified duelist, one must also be an excellent actor!

The effects of the magic cards continue to be processed. Since the battle damage is 0, Kaiba's LP remains at 2900. The monsters left on Leyu's field only have 1200 ATK, and Egg Angel is in Defense Position, so Leyu cannot win directly.

Just before Kaiba's cards were about to be sent to the graveyard, Kaiba suddenly flipped over his last face-down card.

"The instant the Titan was destroyed, my face-down trap card, Desperate Hope (anime card), was activated."

"When a monster on your field is destroyed, you can activate this effect to choose a player and recover Life Points equal to that monster's ATK."

"My LP restores the attack power of the Colossus."

[Haima LP: 2900→6900]

Seeing that Haima's LP had also increased by 4000 in one go, Leyou felt a little uneasy.

How about we change the name of this giant soldier to medic?

Look, He punched over and added 4000 to Leyou, then got chopped to pieces and added another 4000 to Haima. All those LPs combined are like two lives!

Forget about calling him the God of Destruction; from now on, he'll be known as the "God of Gourmet Food, the Battlefield Medic of Obelisk"!

"Although your LP has replied, your field is now empty, and the battle phase is not over yet."

"Shatimi, attack directly!"

The healer, wielding a long whip, finally did what a support should do and kicked the seahorse.

After all, the best way to support your teammates is to take out all the enemies.

[Haima LP: 6900→5900]

"My turn is over. Now, let's begin your performance again and see how much skill you can still display without God."

[Leyou Hand Cards: 2]

"Hmph! Don't forget! My power never came from the God Cards! Even without the God Cards, I am still the strongest duelist!"

"My turn, draw a card!"

[Seahorse's hand: 3]

"They are both really strong. Even with such an intense battle, their LP (Limited Points) are increasing."

"Yes, this is the kind of duel that gets people excited and makes them want to watch it!"

"I've made up my mind. I'm going to study hard and strive to become a duelist as cool as them!"

A variety of voices from all over the world entered Philvo's information hub via the internet. Sensing these vibrant words, Philvo smiled.

If more people can participate in Duel Monsters, the collective will will be stronger, strong enough to change some of the previously predetermined course of events in this world.
