The protagonist of the Yu-Gi-Oh! world might be the same person.

"I've sent [Guardian Priestess Mana] from my deck to the graveyard, and I'm Special Summoning [Magician Twin Souls] from my hand in Defense Position. Come on!"

As Atem slammed the card onto the Duel Disk, a burst of light appeared on the field, projecting the Dark Magician and his apprentice in their spirit forms.

[Magician's Dual Souls: Defense 0]

Atum's hand: 5 → 4

After that, he picked up two more cards, stared at them, and unconsciously curled his lips into a smile.

The gamer noticed the other person's expression and frowned slightly, sensing that the other person was thinking of something bad.

Atum inserted the two cards from his hand into the Duel Disk, saying, "Finally, I'll set two more cards face down, and then it's end of my turn."

Atum's hand: 4 → 2

"Two face-up cards..."

Staring at the card at Atum's feet, the game pondered for a moment, unable to think of any way the opponent could turn the tide.

So he temporarily ignored them and drew a card from his deck.

"My turn, draw a card!"

[Yugi Muto's hand cards: 5→6]

After this draw, the game retrieved four more cards from the graveyard.

"I will Special Summon 'Brick Dragon' from my Graveyard by expelling three EARTH monsters from my Graveyard: 'Magnet Warrior,' 'Green Part,' and 'Combineer.'"

Om-! !

A burst of light effects flashed across his field, and the figure of the Lego Dragon was projected once again.

[Block Dragon: Attack Power 2500]

"Then I took the cards from my hand..."

The player is holding a card in their hand, preparing to summon a second monster.

However, before he could finish speaking, Atum immediately interrupted him: "Don't rush, AIBO!"

"what?"

While Wang Yang was distracted by the game, he pressed the button to set the card and shouted, "Activate the Trap Card [Dark Magician Resurrection Coffin]. When your opponent successfully Normal or Special Summons a monster, send that monster and one Spellcaster monster on your field to the Graveyard. Special Summon one DARK Spellcaster monster from your Deck or Graveyard."

As soon as he finished speaking, a burst of light appeared on the Trap Card's artwork, and a magical coffin was projected onto the screen.

Then the coffin opened, and two beams of magical energy shot towards the monsters on both sides of the field.

Soon, the two monsters were sucked into the coffin and the lid was closed.

"Using the effect of [Dark Magician's Coffin], Special Summon [Dark Magician] from the Graveyard."

"Rise, Mahad!"

The coffin opened again, and the black magician Mahad jumped out.

[Dark Magician: Attack Power 2500]

"The Black Magician..."

Looking at this monster, the game dared not be careless at all.

"But don't forget, my other self can also activate the monster effect of [Brick Dragon]."

"If this monster is sent to the Graveyard, add three Rock-Type monsters with a combined Level of 8 from your Deck to your hand."

He opened the deck and, after searching through it, picked out three cards.

"I added one of each of the following cards to my hand: Level 3 [Electromagnetic Stone Warrior γ], Level 4 [Fossil Dinosaur Pachycephalosaurus], and Level 1 [Starry Key Beast].

[Yugi Muto's hand cards: 6→9]

The game was a delightful surprise as the three cards were handed to him.

However, at that moment, Wang Yang's smile gradually turned sinister, "This is the moment I've been waiting for, AIBO!"

"Nani?!"

He then pressed another button, "Open the face-down card, activate the Trap Card [Great Explosion]!"

This effect is activated when the opponent has 8 or more cards in their hand. The opponent adds their hand to their deck, shuffles it, and then draws 2 cards.

The game's pupils suddenly contracted, revealing a surprised expression. He muttered, "It's actually this card..."

He reluctantly put the nine cards in his hand back into the deck and shuffled them.

Game: This card must have been freshly printed!

"Oh no," Jonouchi said worriedly. "The advantage we worked so hard to build has been reversed in an instant."

Kaiba's president was also shocked, "To bring both sides to the same level in an instant, what a terrifying card."

"Amazing......"

Although this card has very low versatility, it is indeed very destructive in the current state of the game.

Shortly after, the game shuffled the deck and put it back into the Duel Disk.

Whew!

He took a deep breath and solemnly drew two cards from the top of his deck.

"Degeneration!!"

[Yugi Muto's hand cards: 9→2]

"This is!!"

After glancing at the cards in his hand, the game player's eyes widened in surprise.

"Ok?"

Seeing his expression, Atum raised an eyebrow, somewhat curious about what card he had drawn.

After a moment of contemplation, the game revealed one of the cards.

"I first activate the Spell Card [Sealed Golden Chest] from my hand. Banish one card from my Deck. During my second Standby Phase after activating this card, add the banished card to my hand."

[Yugi Muto's hand cards: 2→1]

A light emanated from the card, and a cabinet made of gold appeared.

Without thinking, he took a card from his deck and glanced at Jonouchi on the sidelines.

Then he put the card into the gold box.

Chapter 162 Divine Hand Shattering Fist

After the game player puts the card into the gold vault, the lid slowly closes.

Jonouchi asked curiously, "What kind of card was put in?"

Apricot: "That box..."

Honda: "It's almost exactly the same as the box where the Millennium Puzzle was placed in the game."

At this moment, Yugi takes four more cards from the graveyard and says, "Next, I will banish [Electromagnetic Stone Warrior α], [Electromagnetic Stone Warrior β], and [Electromagnetic Stone Warrior Electromagnetic God] from the graveyard as a price to Special Summon [Brick Dragon] from the graveyard."

As the card was knocked onto the Duel Disk again, the Block Dragon reappeared on his field.

[Block Dragon: Attack Power 2500]

Then Yugi swung his hand and shouted, "I'll open the face-down card again, and activate the Continuous Trap [Transforming Clay Fortress], summoning it as a Trap Monster!"

You can target 1 Level 4 or higher monster you control to activate this effect. After activation, this card becomes an Effect Monster (Rock/EARTH/Level 4/ATK 1000/DEF 1000) and is Special Summoned to the Monster Zone. Then, equip the targeted face-up monster to this card as an Equip Card.

At the moment the card is activated, a fortress-shaped clay giant slowly rises from the ground.

【Transforming Clay Fortress: Attack Power 1000】

The next second, the block dragon jumped onto the fortress.

"The attack and defense of 【Clay Fortress】 are each increased by the attack value of 【Brick Dragon】, which is an Equip Card."

【Transforming Clay Fortress: Attack 1000→3500, Defense 1000→3500】

President Kaiba exclaimed, "A monster with an attack power of 3500 points! If this attack passes, we will win the game!"

However, at that moment, Atum chuckled, "Heh~, it was definitely the right choice to save the card's effect for now."

Upon hearing this, the game's brows furrowed slightly. "What do you mean, the other me?"

"Have you forgotten, AIBO? There's still a [Magician's Doorway] in my grave."

Upon hearing this, the game suddenly realized: "Oh no!!"

Wang Yang took this card from the graveyard and said, "I activate the effect of the Trap Card 'Magician's Guiding Array' from the graveyard. If 'Dark Magician' is on my field, I can negate one Spell Card or Trap Card on my opponent's field until the end of the turn by banishing this card from the graveyard."

"Although [Clay Fortress] is played as a monster, it still has the attributes of a Trap Card. Therefore, it can be negated by the effect of [Magician's Guiding Gate] and transformed back into a Trap Card to be placed in the Spell & Trap Zone."

The clay giant of the fortress, having lost its monster attributes, melted instantly, and the block dragon, having lost its foothold, fell to the ground and shattered into pieces.

boom--!

Without an equipped target, the Block Dragon can only be sent to the Graveyard. Its Last Word effect cannot be activated again this turn due to turn restrictions, and there are not enough EARTH monsters in the Graveyard for it to respawn.

Since the deformable clay fortress has already been opened, it can only be set up in the rear field in the form of a surface display and cannot be activated again.

Motokita: "That way, the monsters on the game field are gone again."

Guiping: "This is bad, brother, we're doomed this game."

"Um......"

Of course, Atum still dared not relax, thinking to himself, "AIBO's fighting spirit has not disappeared, so we cannot be careless."

Then Yugi took two more cards from the graveyard and said, "It's not over yet, another me. I'll activate the effect of 'Displacement Fusion' from the graveyard again, and by banishing this card from the graveyard as a condition, I'll return 'Superconducting Fighter Imperial Magnet Cannon King' from the graveyard to the Extra Deck, and then draw a card from the Deck."

"Degeneration!!"

[Yugi Muto's hand cards: 1→2]

After glancing at his hand, he didn't hesitate to put it on the Duel Disk, "I summon [Electromagnetic Stone Warrior γ] in Defense Position."

Om-! !

After a flash of light, a copper-green electromagnet warrior was projected onto the game field.

[Electromagnetic Stone Warrior γ: Defense 2000]

[Yugi Muto's hand cards: 2→1]

"End of round."

Malik: "No, the game with only one shield monster left can't withstand the Pharaoh's next strong attack."

Looking at the situation before him, Atum smiled smugly. "What's wrong, AIBO? Is this the end of it?"

"Alright, my other self, the duel isn't over yet."

Upon hearing this, Wang Yang raised an eyebrow, thinking, "Is AIBO bluffing, or has it set a trap...?"

Neither situation could stop his offensive.

"My turn, draw a card!"

Atum's hand: 2 → 3

After drawing the card, Yugi played Monster Resurrection without hesitation: "Activate the Spell Card [Monster Resurrection]!"

"Rise, God of Destruction, Obelisk!!"

Atum's hand: 3 → 2

The azure giant tore through the earth once more, its massive form slowly rising from the ground.

Obelisk the Colossus: Attack Power 4000

Atum is looking to press his advantage.

However, at that moment, Yugi waved his arm and shouted, "At this instant, open the face-down card, activate the Trap Card [Trap in the Dark]!"

If your Life Points are 3000 or less, you can pay 1000 Life Points to target 1 Normal Trap Card in your Graveyard, except for "Trap in the Dark". This card's effect becomes the same as the effect of that Normal Trap Card when it is activated. After that, that Normal Trap Card in the Graveyard is banished.
