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

The Electronic Dragon Infinity slowly unfurled its enormous wings, and the dark red core in its chest generated an irresistible gravitational wave, as if a black hole had opened its greedy maw.

The [Bad Star Beast Shizchiel], whose size was as large as a mountain, was completely powerless to resist under the pull of this high-dimensional force.

Its massive mechanical body began to twist and stretch, unable to escape no matter how loudly the engine roared. In the end, it turned into a dazzling golden stream of light and was sucked into the core of the electronic dragon, Infinite, with a mournful cry!

In Slink's despairing gaze, the stream of light obediently circled around Cyber ​​Dragon Infinity, transforming into a brand new, shimmering Xyz Material Sphere.

As the rainbow light faded, the Electronic Dragon Infinity stood proudly, its starlight shining even brighter, as if mocking its opponent's powerlessness.

Thank you for your hospitality.

You Yang said coldly, his eyes like knives.

[Electronic Dragon - Infinite] [Attack Power: 2500 → 2700]

"Tch... So they do have a way to recycle it after all."

Seeing the [Bad Star Beast Shizchiel], which had once briefly belonged to him and possessed destructive power, now obediently transformed into a ball of light circling around the enemy's mechanical dragon, Slink gritted his teeth and spat fiercely.

Although he said he was "not surprised," the cold sweat on his forehead betrayed his inner panic.

That monster was originally You Yang's trump card to clear the field, but as expected, it became nourishment for the enemy.

He quickly forced himself to calm down, his triangular eyes, hidden behind thick-rimmed glasses, fixed intently on You Yang's hand of cards, trying to find a last chance for survival:

"However... you're already at your last gasp!"

"After removing the card you just used, you only have two cards left in your hand!"

"Now that the [Cyber ​​Dragon - Infinite] has already used its effect, I'd like to see what kind of trouble you can cause with just two cards in your hand!"

Despite Slink's blustering but cowardly shouts, You Yang's expression remained as cold as ice.

He slowly raised his eyelids, his silver eyes devoid of any emotional fluctuation, displaying only a cold, calculating quality like that of a sophisticated computer.

"What else can we do?"

You Yang's slender fingers pinched the leftmost card in his hand. With a slight movement of his fingertips, the card drew a sharp arc in the air before slamming heavily onto the duel disk.

"Just watch—this will be the final piece of the puzzle that buries you."

"I haven't performed a normal summon this turn."

"Come forth! — [Electronic Dragon Core]!!"

Sizzle—click!

Accompanied by a tooth-grinding mechanical whirring sound, a crack appeared in the ground beneath You Yang's feet.

A giant mechanical snake, entirely silver-white and shaped like the spine of some kind of creature, slowly crawled out.

Although its body is small, every bone exudes a cold metallic luster, and the core reactor in the center pulsates, emitting a dark blue data light.

[Electronic Dragon Core] [2-Star] [Light/Mechanical Race] [Attack: 400 / Defense: 1500]

"Next, I activate the effect of [Electronic Dragon Core]!"

You Yang waved his hand and said, "Activate this effect if this card is successfully summoned."

"Add 1 'Cyber' Spell/Trap Card or 'Cyber ​​Tech' Spell/Trap Card from my Deck to my hand."

The deck is automatically shuffled, and one card is ejected.

"I've decided to add the Continuous Spell Card, Cyber ​​Dark World, to my hand!"

The moment You Yang received the card, he didn't hesitate and immediately inserted it into the back slot of the Duel Disk. His movement was so fast that it left afterimages in the air.

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

Om-! !

In an instant, the originally dim alleyway seemed to be shrouded in some kind of eerie force field.

The air became thick and cold, and the surrounding light, which had been pure white "electron flow," was instantly tinged with an ominous dark green hue.

That was the realm of "internal electron flow," filled with an aura of erosion and darkness.

"And deal with the effects when it's activated!"

"As part of this card's activation effect, I can add 1 'Cyber ​​Dark' monster from my Deck to my hand if there is no copy of it in my Graveyard."

You Yang's voice echoed in the dark realm, carrying a hint of oppression:

"I've decided to add [Cyber ​​Dark Cannon] from my deck to my hand!"

As dark green lightning crackled above the deck, Youyang drew another card.

But he didn't even glance at the card, and shoved it into the graveyard with a decisive motion, as if it were worthless junk.

He then said loudly:

"Then!"

"I activate the effect of the [Cyber ​​Dark Cannon] that I just added to my hand!"

"You can activate this effect by discarding this card from your hand."

Add 1 Machine-Type "CyberDark" monster from your Deck to your hand.

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

In just a few seconds, You Yang completed the resource transformation from the "surface" to the "essence".

The light of the electron flow and the shadow of the electron darkness blended perfectly in his hands.

Watching You Yang's dazzling skills, Slink felt like he could hardly breathe.

This boy's deck... is like a bottomless black hole; you never know what monster he'll pull out next.

However, You Yang's offensive will not stop in the slightest because of his reaction!

"Next, this chain will come to an end."

You Yang held up the card he had just retrieved and pointed it at the dark green area:

"I activate the second effect of the Continuous Spell Card [Cyber ​​Dark World] on the field!"

"This can only be activated during my main phase. Let me summon a 'Cyber ​​Dark' monster."

"Leveraging the power of this field—"

"Come forth! [Electro-Dark Chimera]!!"

roar--!!

As soon as he finished speaking, the [Electronic Dark World] card on the field suddenly burst out with a blinding, eerie green light.

The light gathered and twisted wildly in the void in front of You Yang, eventually tearing space apart.

With a terrifying roar that was a mixture of metallic scraping and the howl of a wild beast, an extremely ferocious monster burst out!

Its entire body is made of dark green bio-metal, with countless sharp rotating blades embedded in its torso, and several exhaust pipes that are spewing out exhaust gas trailing behind it.

It was like a colossal mechanical beast forcibly assembled for the purpose of slaughter, crashing to the ground with a heavy sense of oppression, raising a cloud of dust!

[Electronic Dark Chimera] [4-Star] [Dark/Mechanical Race] [Attack: 800 / Defense: 2100]

Chapter 272 The brilliance of electrons shines once more! Power combined! Come forth—Electron Terminator Dragon!

Before the echoes of the successful summoning had even faded, You Yang's expression suddenly hardened.

He didn't stop what he was doing; his right arm sliced ​​through the air like a sharp blade, suddenly thrusting forward.

This sudden action startled the girl beside him, who looked up in surprise.

In that instant, a familiar wave that made her soul tremble burst forth from the man's palm like a whirlwind!

"This is..." Her pupils contracted slightly, her gaze fixed on what was in front of You Yang.

As You Yang waved his hand, countless blue data streams converged wildly in the air.

A dazzling white square connection loop, constructed from high-density data, appeared out of thin air before him with a low "hum," dividing the battlefield into a completely new dimension!

You Yang's voice was deep and imposing, each word like a heavy tap on a keyboard:

"Verified!"

"The circuit that guides evolution—activated!"

"Arrow confirmed!"

The data flashed by in his eyes, and his gaze swept over the mechanical dragon on the field, which gleamed with a cold metallic luster.

"The summoning condition for this monster is—one Machine-type monster other than the Link Monster, whose original attack power is less than 1000!"

"I've set the [Electronic Dragon Core] with 400 attack power to the link marker!"

Its body instantly disintegrated, transforming into an extremely dazzling golden stream of light, which rushed into the pure white square connecting circuit in front of it with unparalleled kinetic energy.

"boom!"

The light precisely illuminated the connection mark at the very center of the left side of the circuit, and the originally gray arrow was instantly filled with crimson light.

"Connect Summon!"

"Show yourself, LINK-1!"

"【Mechanically Driven Knight】!"

A burst of pure white data light suddenly erupted, as dazzling as a supernova.

Deep within that light, the clicking sound of countless precision gears meshing and turning echoed clearly in everyone's ears.

Immediately afterwards, heavy footsteps sounded.

One by one, mechanical knights wielding enormous energy blades and clad in heavy silver-white armor stepped out steadily from the radiance with uniform and unwavering steps!

Steam billowed out, its cold light chilling.

【Mechanical Knight】【LINK-1 /←】【Earth/Mechanical Race】【Attack Power: 500】

"There's... a Link Summoning system?!"

The three brothers opposite were completely stunned, and even the girl next to them couldn't help but open her mouth wide.

They never expected that Youyang's deck, centered around "Cyber ​​Dragon," could so smoothly accommodate this new-era summoning method despite having strict self-restraint conditions.
