Yu-Gi-Oh!: This isn't a duel!

He examined the scene he had set up.

It possesses the negation of [Crimson Dragon Abyss], the ability to banish all cards without destruction, [Crimson Supernova Dragon], the backrow trap [Crimson Zone] which can be activated at any time, and the continuous spell [Crimson Hell Earth] which provides sustain.

For his deck, this board was perfect.

Even if You Yang is capable of clearing the field, he can still easily generate extremely high finishing damage in the next round thanks to the powerful sustain of the green and red arrays!

"Well then, it's my turn."

You Yang's voice rang out calmly, without the slightest hint of tension.

"Draw a card!"

Under the watchful eyes of Jord Rosen and Lilith, You Yang's fingers rested steadily on the deck, smoothly drawing a card.

When he saw the card he had drawn, a subtle look of understanding flashed in his eyes.

Isn't this coming?

The other side will not forget his "old friend," and naturally, he will not forget his own old friend either.

It's just that my "old friend" has slightly changed its name.

Without hesitation, You Yang revealed the card in his hand and slapped it onto the duel disk.

"The effect of the [Cyber ​​World Serpent] in my hand is—"

"If there is a monster on your opponent's field, this card can be Special Summoned from your hand."

"Come forth! [Cyber ​​World Serpent]!"

A crisp, metallic mechanical friction sound rang out, and a burst of orange data light suddenly erupted!

Amidst this light, a massive, silver alloy-made, sleek, and technologically advanced mechanical dragon suddenly descended upon the field!

【Electronic World Snake】【5 stars】

[Light/Mechanical Race] [Attack: 1000, Defense: 2100]

"Furthermore, at the moment when [Cyber ​​World Serpent] is successfully Special Summoned, its subsequent effects will activate!" Yu Yang's command continued without pause.

"After that, I can Special Summon 1 'Cyber ​​Dragon' from my Deck, or equip it to this card as an Equip Spell Card."

"After this effect is activated, you cannot Special Summon non-Machine-Type monsters until the end of the turn."

[Cyber ​​World Serpent] raised its head and let out a synthesized electronic roar. In response, Youyang's deck area automatically popped out a card and placed it precisely in his spell and trap area.

Looking at the mechanical monster specially summoned by You Yang, Jord Rosen dared not underestimate it in the slightest.

He knew that any seemingly weak monster could unleash astonishing power within the right system.

He seized the opportunity and decisively swung his hand forward, causing the backcourt player to flip over!

"Then, at this very moment, I'll open the card!"

"And activate the effect of the Continuous Trap Card - [Crimson Zone]!"

You can activate this effect by targeting 1 of your banished Dragon-type DARK Synchro Monsters.

"Special Summon that monster."

"I will Special Summon the Crimson Dragon that was previously banished by the effect of [Love-Infused Lupu]!"

The ground beneath their feet became scorching hot once more, and the familiar crimson magma erupted with a "boom"!

The majestic and ferocious figure of the Crimson Dragon tore through the scorching lava once more, leaping out of the surging magma with a deafening roar, and standing tall on Jord Rosen's field!

"Then, I'll activate the other effect of [Cyber ​​World Serpent] on the field!" You Yang was not disturbed and calmly continued to operate.

"Once per turn, you can return 1 'Cyber ​​Dragon' card from your field to your hand."

"Add 1 'Fusion' Spell Card from your Deck or Graveyard to your hand."

The orange data stream lit up again on the [Cyber ​​World Serpent], and Youyang's hand reached out to the Duel Disk, ready to perform a search.

Chapter 148 Everyone Except! A Supernova Unleashed!

But this was the opportunity Jord Rosen had been waiting for, and his voice immediately broke the chain:

"At this very moment!"

"I chain your [Cyber ​​World Serpent] effect to activate, immediately activating the other effect of [Crimson Zone] on the field!"

"If you control a 'Red Dragon' or a Synchro Monster whose name is mentioned in its card name—"

"When your opponent activates the effect of a Spell, Trap, or Monster, you can target 1 card on the field to activate this effect."

"That card is destroyed."

"I choose to destroy your [Cyber ​​World Serpent]!"

"Boom!"

As if it were alive, the red magma suddenly erupted violently from below the Youyang Field, instantly engulfing and crushing the silver mechanical giant snake [Electronic World Serpent]!

Amidst the deafening explosion, mechanical debris flew everywhere.

However, faced with this interference, You Yang's lips did not droop; instead, a faint smile appeared on his face, as if his plan had succeeded.

Great, I traded one card for one of the opponent's card-blowing attacks, so it's a win-win situation.

Furthermore, Cyber ​​World Serpent and Cyber ​​Dragon ended up in the graveyard as a result... For the Cyber ​​Dragon deck, sending Machine-Type monsters to the graveyard is as convenient as going home!

Immediately, You Yang revealed another card in his hand and declared:

"Then, I will activate the effect of [Cyber ​​Dragon - Sub-Star] in my hand."

You can activate this effect by discarding 1 other monster from your hand to the Graveyard.

"Special Summon this card from your hand."

"I send [Cyber ​​Dark Dragon] from my hand to the Graveyard to Special Summon [Cyber ​​Dragon Next Star]!"

A small, entirely black mechanical dragon with a pair of pure white wings slowly descended, accompanied by a gentle stream of data light.

Its blue electronic spots flicker orderly on its surface, giving it a mysterious and futuristic appearance.

【Electronic Dragon - Next Generation Star】【1 Star】

[Light/Mechanical Race] [Attack: 200, Defense: 200]

“And, at this very moment,” You Yang declared seamlessly.

"[Cyber ​​Dragon - Next Generation Star]'s appearance effect activated!"

"If this card is Normal or Special Summoned, you can target 1 Machine-Type monster in your Graveyard with 2100 ATK or DEF."

"Special Summon that monster."

"I Special Summon Cyberse, which has a DEF of exactly 2100, from my Graveyard!"

"After this effect is activated, you cannot Special Summon non-Machine-Type monsters until the end of this turn."

"However, I already consumed this self-restraint when my [Cyber ​​World Serpent] appeared, so it doesn't matter now."

As You Yang spoke, he looked up at Jord Rosen, his tone calm yet tinged with a hint of mockery.

"Just like the self-restriction of the 'DARK Attribute Dragon Synchro Monster' in your Crimson Dragon deck, I'm used to it."

Jord Rosen, who was just about to activate the effect, was stunned by what he heard, and a strange, indescribable sadness welled up in his heart.

He glanced instinctively at the monsters on his field.

Yeah... why does my Crimson Dragon deck have so many self-restrictions?

I can still perform a Synchro Summon right now, but I can't find any monsters in my Extra Deck that fit the current conditions and can handle the situation...

A strong sense of frustration suddenly welled up in his heart, making him feel extremely sad.

But then he thought about it again and realized that Youyang's [Cyber ​​Dragon] deck seemed to be facing a similar self-imposed dilemma, which made him feel a little better.

More importantly, I currently hold an absolute advantage in the situation and will absolutely not allow You Yang's effect to pass smoothly!

"Chain with the effect of [Cyber ​​Dragon - Next Generation Star], I activate the effect of [Crimson Lotus Demon - Abyss]!"

Jord Rosen suppressed his distracting thoughts and declared in a loud voice, while pointing towards Youyang's venue.

"During your turn or your opponent's turn, you can target 1 face-up card on your opponent's field."

"That card's effect is negated until the end of the turn."

"I will target your Cyber ​​Dragon: Next Generation Star and negate its effect!"

【Yan Demon Dragon Crimson Lotus Demon Abyss】 let out a deep roar and slammed the huge, chain-bound blade in its hand into the ground!

A deep red, corrosive, and eerie energy rapidly spread along the ground, instantly enveloping and eroding the [Electronic Dragon - Next Generation Star] on the Youyang Field, causing the shimmering data light around it to dim instantly.

Is this another instance of ineffective impedance being forced out?

You Yang calmly calculated in his mind.

So, let's activate this card next.

With a flick of his arm, he smoothly inserted another card into the Spell & Trap zone of the Duel Disk.

"I activate the Continuous Spell Card—[Cyber ​​Dark World]!"

A phantom of a magic card, radiating a deep blue data stream and a dark metallic sheen, unfolded on the field.

"As part of the effect processing when this card is activated, you can add 1 'Cyber ​​Dark' monster with the same name that is not in your Graveyard from your Deck to your hand."

"I've added [Cyber ​​Dark Chimera] to my hand from my deck!"

As he spoke, You Yang's deck responded again, and a card popped out automatically, which he caught steadily and held in his hand.

Now, the only remaining resistance point for Jord Rosen on the field is the field-wide banishing effect of [True Crimson Supernova Dragon].

If you can successfully bring out that effect, then the scales of victory will tip in your favor.

For the Cyber ​​Dragon deck, the method to force out that effect is quite simple and direct.

You Yang suddenly waved his hand, and a pure white, square halo made of data appeared out of thin air in front of him!

"Verified!"

"The circuit that guides evolution!"
