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

You Yang raised his arm, holding a card exuding a dangerous aura between two fingers, and slammed it heavily into the magic trap area of ​​the Duel Disk, producing a crisp, decisive sound.

"I will bury all three of you completely!"

"I activate the Equip Spell Card from my hand—[Eternal Evolution Flame]!!"

Om-! ! !

As the card was activated, a high-frequency energy vibration suddenly exploded.

In the void, countless silver-gray nano-metal particles frantically converged, transforming into thick and precise reinforced armor, which, amidst a tooth-grinding mechanical grinding sound, layered over the massive body of the [Electronic Terminator Dragon].

The already imposing mechanical dragon was now even more heavily armored and armed, resembling a mobile steel war fortress. Its imposing size almost seemed to burst through the narrow alleyway!

"Depending on its effect, this card can only be equipped to Machine-Type Fusion Monsters."

"I'm equipping it on the [Electronic Terminator Dragon]!"

You Yang's eyes narrowed, and his arm swung down suddenly, like a scythe of execution:

"Battle has begun! Proceed directly to the battle phase!"

"Roar--!!"

The three mechanical heads of the [Electronic Terminator Dragon] rose simultaneously, emitting a deafening roar.

Its crimson electronic eyes blazed with red light, and its thrusters spewed out scorching flames as it instantly locked onto its first prey!

"First strike! I attack your Defense Position [Number 59, Rebel Chef] with [Cyber ​​Dragon]!"

You Yang pointed straight at Gustav, who was already slumped on the ground.

The moment the command was given, the central head of the [Electronic Terminator Dragon] suddenly opened its massive maw.

The free energy in the air collapsed wildly, converging into an extremely dazzling white sphere of light. The high density of energy even caused the surrounding space to be visibly distorted.

"Disappear in the light of evolution! Eternal flames of evolution!!"

boom--!!!

A pale, destructive beam of light shot out, instantly piercing through the battlefield.

The "Rebellious Chef," who claimed to possess all resistances, was as insignificant as an ant in the face of absolute power and was instantly swallowed up by the stream of light.

Together with Gustav behind it, it was completely engulfed by this destructive storm!

[Gustav: LP 6000 → 0]

As the light faded, Gustav's figure collapsed to the ground, unconscious.

"The small fry are all gone. One done."

You Yang's voice was so calm and even, as if he had just casually swatted a fly.

He didn't even glance at his fallen opponent; his icy gaze instantly shifted and locked onto Slink, whose face was ashen.

The moment that gaze was fixed on him, Slink felt as if his heart skipped a beat.

"It's not over yet."

You Yang flicks a card from the graveyard, holds it between two fingers, and shows it to his opponent:

"I activate the effect of the Equip Spell Card—[Eternal Evolution Flame]!"

"You can activate this effect by banishing 1 'Cyber ​​Dragon' monster from your Graveyard at the end of the Damage Step when the equipped monster attacks an opponent's monster!"

"In exchange, I will remove the [Cyber ​​Dragon] from the graveyard!"

As a card was sent into the banished zone by Youyang, the electronic eyes of [Electronic Terminator Dragon], which had been slightly dimmed due to overheating, lit up with a bloodthirsty red light again, and a stream of scorching steam spewed from the heat dissipation vents on its body.

"Effect applies! The equipped monster can continue to attack the opponent's monster!"

"Although during the turn this effect is activated, your monsters other than the equipped monster cannot attack, but..."

You Yang's eyes were cold, and there was not a trace of sympathy in his gaze as he looked at the three of them.

"I will continue the attack!"

"【Cyber ​​Terminator Dragon】! Launch a second attack on Slink!!"

The air was filled with the acrid smell of ozone, a sign of high-density energy compression.

【Electronic Terminator Dragon】The ferocious mechanical dragon head on the left lowered slightly, its jaws opened, and a pure white and scorching energy vortex gathered wildly deep in its throat.

The light was so intense that it seemed as if the surrounding space itself was being distorted and collapsed by this power!

Slink, who was being locked onto by that scarlet electronic eye, felt as if the blood in his body had frozen.

The shadow of death loomed over him, but his survival instinct as a duelist compelled him to react at the last moment.

Even though fear was making his fingers spasm, he still drew a card from his hand with unprecedented speed and roared hysterically:

"Don't...don't underestimate me! I'm activating the effect of [Warbreaker]!"

At that moment, this card was his only lifeline!

Slink's bloodshot eyes widened, his voice sharp and shrill from extreme tension:

"This can only be activated when the opponent's monster declares a direct attack!"

"Special Summon this card from your hand. After that, you are forced to end the Battle Phase!"

He held the card high, as if it were a get-out-of-jail-free card, and a hint of elation at surviving a close call even appeared on his face:

"As long as the battle phase ends, I will survive! Come on—[Warbreaker]!!"

However, reality is often crueler than nightmares.

Just as Slink was about to place [Warbreaker] onto the Duel Disk with great anticipation, the familiar summoning light did not appear.

Chapter 274 Battle Rank Lockdown! The Triple Strike of Eternal Evolutionary Flame!

Instead, the Duel Disk emitted an extremely piercing "buzzing" electrical sound!

"D--! ERROR!"

A cold, red error message flashed wildly before his eyes; the duel system had rejected the summoning request without any emotion!

"what?!"

Slink's smile froze instantly, then crumbled into unbelievable horror.

He frantically pounded the duel disk, like a drowning man trying to grasp at a piece of driftwood.

"Move! Why aren't you moving?!"

"What's going on?!"

In the instant he was completely bewildered and his mind went blank, the destructive light descended.

"boom--!!!"

The energy cannon in the mouth of the [Electronic Terminator Dragon] spewed out like a flood bursting its banks.

Before Slink could even let out a complete scream, he was completely engulfed by the dazzling white light, and his questions vanished without a trace!

A crisp beeping sound rang out from the Duel Disk, and Slink's health points instantly dropped to zero!

[Slink: LP 8000 → 0]

The terrifying shockwave swept through the entire alley, sending dust flying everywhere.

"Big...Big Brother! Second Brother!"

Seeing his two older brothers killed by the steel monster in an instant, even the usually dim-witted and slow-witted third brother, Burke, finally realized that something was wrong.

A chill called "fear" ran up his spine and straight to the top of his head, making him shiver uncontrollably.

As the smoke cleared, You Yang stood before the enormous mechanical dragon, his expression as indifferent as ever, as if he had merely brushed away a speck of dust.

He looked at the panicked Bock and spoke coldly, his voice like the pronouncement of death:

"Still don't understand? You're too slow."

You Yang raised his hand and pointed to the colossal dragon behind him, radiating boundless pressure, and the shimmering armor covering its body:

"【Eternal Evolution Flame】has another crucial effect."

"As long as this card is in the Spell & Trap Zone, your opponent cannot activate the effects of Spells, Trap Cards, or Monsters during your Battle Phase."

These words struck Bock like a hammer blow, shattering his last shred of hope.

"In other words, in the face of the light of evolution, any obstruction is futile."

You Yang's eyes sharpened instantly, and he pointed his finger sharply at the last survivor, shouting:

"So, you should go down and keep them company too!!"

"Eternal Evolutionary Flame - Final Strike!!"

"Roar--!!!"

【Electronic Terminator Dragon】The rightmost dragon head suddenly rose up, and its scarlet electronic eyes instantly locked onto Bock, who was already paralyzed with fear on the ground.

The dragon's mouth suddenly opened wide, and destructive photon energy once again gathered wildly, then transformed into a pillar of light that pierced through the heavens and earth, pouring out!

"Waaaaah!!"

Burke stared at the overwhelming light that was so intense he couldn't open his eyes.

The immense fear completely robbed him of his ability to think, and he even forgot his instinct to escape.

The burly man slumped to the ground like a helpless child, tears and snot streaming down his face, crying out in despair:

"Mom~ Help!!"

Rumble—!!!

The cries were instantly drowned out by the roar of the energy explosion. A flash of white light, and everything vanished into nothingness.

[Blog: LP 8000 → 0]

All three brothers were killed.

With the three brothers' complete defeat, the oppressive mechanical pressure that had been pressing down on everyone dissipated.

In that desolate ruin, a crisp thud broke the silence.
