Duels should be played with a smile.

"Because the original number spirit summoned by the effect of the original number chaos ritual has an attack power of 10000 and a defense power of 1000, and those five cards will all be used as its Xyz Material."

"Now, are you ready to accept your punishment, Jaden Yuki?"

Chapter 114 This is...destiny! And 16...

The Phantom God stands in the EX zone on the left, with the four Gates of Origin positioned in positions 1, 2, 3, and 5 respectively. This frees up a normal monster zone while also providing cover for the Sacrifice Demon Anima. This is the current situation for Mr. Phantom Thief.

He used to be a duelist who randomly positioned his monsters, but after being taught a lesson by Anima, by not having enough Link Arrows, and by all sorts of strange situations, he has learned to habitually adjust the positions of his monsters.

"Chaos No. 1000, with an attack power of up to 10000 points, what terrifying effects does this powerful monster possess?"

For some reason, the Duel Disks for Yugi and Jaden are not the new models that will be released after today, but rather the universal model from the normal timeline and the universal model from the GX timeline. Unable to know any information about the monster, and having never seen this monster before, the two of them can only guess.

As for Yusei, the corner of his mouth twitched slightly, unsure of what expression to make.

"Don't rush to think about how you'll die, because even more enjoyable things are waiting for you!"

"I activate [Memory of Hope] again! And because I currently have 5 numbered Xyz Monsters on the field, I can draw five cards!"

It was already the fifth round, and everyone had basically discarded all their hand traps, so the trio could only watch helplessly as Mr. Phantom Thief drew a large number of cards in one go.

Looking at the cards he had drawn, Mr. Phantom Thief felt a little disappointed because he hadn't drawn a Numbered Awakening or Starlight Hope. Otherwise, he really wanted to draw a Gun King directly.

I also didn't draw the ultimate dragon from the Great Star, otherwise when it appeared, it would have declared itself a dragon, and we would have seen Crab Bro's wonderful expression in the next round.

Furthermore, both the Origin Lineage and Origin Chaos Ritual after Originization have a very stupid self-restraint effect. Even if you actually draw them, you can't perform a special summon. It's a pity, ah, a pity.

"Your luck is alright, but that's all. Let me put an end to this boring duel!"

"Enter battle phase!"

Four Source Gates with 1000 attack power each, one Dream God with 10,000 attack power, while Jaden's side only has a weak, pitiful, and helpless Apollosa.

Although Apollossa can negate one monster effect, the cricket has 800 attack points, so you can just kick it to death first.

"Gateway Number One, go! Don't be shy, give her a kick!"

Unbridled in indulging his perverse pleasures, Mr. Phantom Thief is unafraid of any outrageous or chilling behavior.

Just strike hard!

The enormous gate crushed towards the weak Apollos. Even though the divine bow, whose brilliance had dimmed, fired many arrows with all its might, it was unable to break through the Gate of Origin, which was far more solid than any copper or iron wall. With just a light bump, the goddess who came from the Moon Palace returned to the heavens.

[Travel LP: 1000 → 800]

Having successfully defeated the only monster on the field for the trio, the four Gates of Origin also activated their abilities, doubling the attack power of all Origin Monsters—only these four gates, because the fields for the Dream God are 【Chaos No.】 and 【Origin Celestial Spirit】, a difference of only one word, which means that He is not an 【Origin】 monster.

Fields, aren't they amazing?

"Now, nothing can stop me anymore!"

"Dreamlike God, grant the end of nothingness to these arrogant fools!"

"Return to nothingness!"

It was just a backrow face-down card that hadn't been activated yet, and Mr. Phantom Thief didn't care at all. "You, Jaden Yuki, if you're so capable, pull out a Magic Cylinder and kill me instantly! Then I'll just eat this D-Wheel right here!"

The Dream God, a monster representing the power of the source, spread its black wings, powerful enough to block out all sunlight. Within its wingspan, all the source power scattered across the area was absorbed, and the gathered energy was transmitted to the very center of its body, blasting towards the three defenseless individuals.

At this critical moment, a purple fluffy ball jumped out of the game's graveyard.

"The instant the Phantom God launches a direct attack on us, I banish 'Cleanse Kuriboh' from my Graveyard! At that moment, I can draw a card from my Deck. If the card I draw is a monster, I can Special Summon that monster. After that, the attack target changes to that monster."

The power from Aibo protected the Pharaoh once again.

"Mudamudam! Nameless Pharaoh, even if you summon a monster and block the attack of the Dream God, the attacks from the remaining three Gates of Origin are enough to wipe out all your fragile LP!"

You think you can summon a Titan? Even if you summon all three Egyptian God cards this time, I'll kick them all back!

"Solvadoran!" Faced with the forbidden words of a candle flickering in the wind, the first Duel King uttered the most appropriate response.

"I don't have any cards in my deck that can solve this situation, but I'm not fighting alone!"

"Judai! This time it's all up to you! Draw that card from your deck! Draw the card that guy entrusted to you!"

The pure purple Kuriboh came from Yugi's side to Jaden's side, gently tapped the top of his deck, and began to wait for Jaden's fateful draw.

"Oh! Game-san! I've felt what you conveyed to me! And this time, I'm sure I can do it!"

Jaden placed his finger on top of the deck, a smile inexplicably rising in his heart. He felt the pulse from his fingertips and looked at the opponent with a smile.

"Because...this is...destiny!"

"Answer my call, Aibo! If I'm not mistaken, you also want to come to my side!"

"Do-ro!"

Without even needing to see what was drawn, Jaden immediately placed the card in Defense Position into the Monster Zone.

The crisp laughter that came from beside me said it all.

"Curry, Curry—"

"I Special Summon Winged Kuriboh. Based on the effect of Cleanse Kuriboh, the attack target is transferred to it."

"Thank you for your hard work, Aibo, but I think you don't mind this time, right?"

"Curry, Curry—"

Winged Kuriboh happily flapped its wings. Even when it was still in the deck, it could already feel the persistent wickedness of the guy opposite it. When Jaden called it, it responded to the call without any hesitation.

And the first thing it did after appearing was to quietly give the middle finger to the other side.

"As expected, Jaden, you are a duelist capable of creating miracles!" Yugi praised with a smile. He was pleased to see how well Winged Kuriboh and Jaden got along, and also felt relieved for his partner who was not present, after all, it was he who had given Winged Kuriboh to Jaden.

If he saw that this winged Kuriboh helped him and Jaden at such a crucial moment, he would probably be very happy, right?

The attack from the Dream God finally landed, striking the tiny winged chestnut ball. Once again, the little winged chestnut ball bore far more damage than it should have, but this time, it did not complain.

It thoughtfully left a gentle breeze to protect its current owner from harm before returning safely to the cemetery.

They could then relax and enjoy the show.

One of the best things about partnering with this owner is that you won't have to work overtime—at most you'll have to work once per duel, and you'll never be dragged out to work overtime by some heartless white furball.

"The effect of 【Winged Kuriboh】: If this card on the field is destroyed and sent to the Graveyard, all battle damage I take becomes 0 until the end of this turn. I'm sorry, but our fragile LP is just that resilient!"

Yugi looked pleased, Jaden had a big smile on his face, and Yusei also had a faint smile on his face.

Only a certain phantom thief is currently contemplating life.

He wasn't surprised by the appearance of the Cleanse Kuriboh, but he really didn't expect to be ganked by his own teammate—no, by his own Kuriboh.

How am I supposed to play this game?! I can't play anymore!

"Consider yourselves lucky to have escaped with your lives, but it's all in vain."

Despite spouting threats, the Phantom Thief was actually terrified inside.

He just hopes the other side doesn't know how powerful this big oaf is, otherwise he's really likely to die instantly.

"The battle phase has ended, and at the same time, the effect of the Dream God has been activated."

"At the end of the Battle Phase, all other monsters on the field are destroyed. After that, you can Special Summon 1 monster from your opponent's Graveyard in Defense Position."

“I destroyed all the Source Gates on my field, but because of the self-restriction of the Source lineage, I cannot make a special recruitment.”

Otherwise, Mr. Phantom Thief would really like to rescue Red Dad from the graveyard across the street.

Although the Red Father who is directly resurrected cannot be sent to the grave to burn blood, the one-turn hard counter plus the majestic resistance makes him stronger than the big, dumb Dream God.

"I've covered three backcourt balls, end of round..."

"I'm going to activate my effect before the end of your turn!" King interrupted the Phantom Thief's actions and revealed his last card.

"The effect of [Magic Kuriboh] can be activated during the Main Phase and Battle Phase of the turn you take damage from battle or an opponent's card effect. Send this card from your hand to the Graveyard. Special Summon 1 [Dark Magician] or 1 [Dark Magician Girl] from your Deck or Graveyard. This effect can also be activated during your opponent's turn."

"I will Special Summon the Dark Magician Girl from the graveyard!"

A small magic circle flashed in front of Magic Kuriboh, and Kuriboh, dressed as a dark magician, began to cast a spell to summon the dark magician girl in the graveyard.

Mr. Phantom Thief had only one thought about this.

Are you having a meeting in these chestnut-shaped balls?! There are already several chestnut-shaped balls here!

At the same time, he was also puzzled by the game's resurrection of the Dark Magician Girl, because from any perspective, the Dark Magician Girl was not very suitable for the current situation.

After all, if you add a Black Magician and a Dragon-type Effect Monster, that's Red Daddy - Shadows Die Twice.

As for Dragon-type Effect Monsters, Jaden might only have Albus, but Yusei has countless of them!

You can't expect Crab Bro to release a 2-star Adjuster, and then use the 6-star Dark Magician Girl to release Stardust Dragon, right? That wouldn't be appropriate.

The well-behaved and adorable black magician girl, dressed in a revealing outfit, once again came to oversee the battle. With nothing left to do, the phantom thief could only end the round.

Finally, it was Yusei Fudo's turn to play Yu-Gi-Oh!, after observing the entire game.

"My turn, draw a card."

Crab Bro calmly drew a card, and holding seven cards in his hand, he appeared unfazed, displaying the demeanor of a ruthless card player.

"Preparation phase, I'm going to activate the card-closing move!"

The phantom thief smiled and revealed a card that no normal person would put in their Origin deck.

"Quick-Play Spell Card [Sky Striker - Tiger Shark Cannon]"

A normal person wouldn't put that card in, but Mr. Phantom Thief is clearly not a normal person either.

"If there are no monsters in your Main Monster Zone, you can target 1 monster in your opponent's Graveyard. Banish that monster. If you have 3 or more Spell Cards in your Graveyard, you can Special Summon that monster to your field without banishing it. Monsters Special Summoned by this effect cannot attack."

"I activate this effect by targeting [Super Magical Dragon Knight - Red-Eyes Dragon Rider] in your Graveyard, and since I have more than 3 Spell Cards in my Graveyard, I can Special Summon it directly to my field."

"So, is it a chain?

Currently, Mr. Phantom Thief only has one Dream God in the EX zone on the field, which undoubtedly meets the requirements—his previous positioning wasn't just to defend against Anima.

I specifically kept two cards, one of which was for Red Daddy's COST.

This unexpected move by the Minotaur completely baffled the trio. They truly hadn't expected that someone would use this method to take away Red Daddy.

Aside from Sky Striker Princess, who would use Sky Striker's own magic cards?! Even if they did, it would be Bumblebee to reach the link value!

In short, Yusei stared at the Monster Resurrection card in his hand and fell silent.

Without interrupting the operation, Yusei shook his head, watching helplessly as Mr. Phantom Thief turned his own Red Dad into the opponent's Red Maggot.
