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

"The trap card I want to banish is of course [Holy Life Shield]. [Trap in the Dark] gains its effect, and I will not take any damage this turn."

"Nani?!"

In this case, the effect of the Colossus will become ineffective again this turn.

However, although Atum cannot damage the game, he can still clear cards from the opponent's field.

So he revealed a magic card in his hand.

"I activate the quick-play spell [Godslayer's Smash] from my hand!"

You can activate this effect if you control a monster whose original name is "Obelisk the Tormentor". Target 1 Effect Monster your opponent controls, negate its effect, and destroy it. This turn, the effects of the monster destroyed by this effect, as well as those of monsters whose original name is the same as that destroyed monster, are negated. If this card is activated during your Main Phase, you can also apply the following effects.

● Destroy all Spell and Trap Cards on your opponent's field.

Atum's hand: 2 → 1

"The monster I want to destroy is of course [Electromagnetic Stone Warrior γ], and at the same time destroy all the Spell Cards and Trap Cards on AIBO's field."

As soon as Wang Yang finished speaking, the giant god swung his giant fist, and the shockwave of divine power instantly engulfed the cards on the game field.

boom--! ! !

Chapter 263 The Seal on the Golden Vault is Lifted

Under the crushing force of the divine fist, all the cards on the game field were destroyed by the tortoise, leaving it completely empty.

Artum had no intention of ending the round there.

"It's not over yet, I'll activate this card from my hand again..."

As he spoke, he revealed another magic card.

"Activate the Spell Card 'Foolish Zero Graveyard', send one Spell Card or Trap Card from your Deck to the Graveyard."

Atum's hand: 1 → 0

"I send the second [Servant of Souls] from my deck to the graveyard and activate its effect from there."

"By removing the [Servant of Souls] from the Graveyard as the activation condition, since there are two types of monsters, [Dark Magician] and [Guardian Priest Mana], on the field and in the Graveyard."

"Therefore, by using the effect of this card, I will draw two more cards from my deck."

Atum's hand: 0 → 2

After checking his hand, he immediately slammed one of the cards onto the Duel Disk, saying, "I summon [Magician's Staff] in Attack Position."

Om-! !

Another burst of light flashed, and the magician's staff, once again in hand, was projected.

[Magician's Staff: Attack Power 1600]

"And through the effect of this monster, the Trap Card 'Destiny of Confrontation', which contains 'Dark Magician', is added to the hand from the deck."

After that, Wang Yang drew another card from his hand.

"Obelisk, resurrected through [Monster Resurrection], returns to the Graveyard during the End Phase, so I'll activate this card before that..."

He immediately played the magic card he was holding in his hand.

"Quick-attack spell [Mysterious Chinese Pot] activated, offering up the gods on the field, my life points are restored to the amount of their attack or defense."

Atum's hand: 2 → 1

The giant warrior instantly turned into mist and dissipated.

Atum: LP1000→5000

"The last card is covered and the round ends."

Atum's hand: 1 → 0

Atum has finally finished his turn.

Whew!

The game player subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief.

"My turn, draw a card!"

[Yugi Muto's hand cards: 1→2]

I glanced at my hand and it seemed neither good nor bad.

Without any hesitation, he directly inserted the two cards from his hand into the duel disk.

"Cover two cards and the turn ends."

[Yugi Muto's hand cards: 2→0]

"It's time to end this, AIBO!"

Atum immediately drew a card.

"My turn, draw a card!"

Atum's hand: 0 → 1

After he drew his card, the other player immediately waved his arm and shouted, "Continuous Trap activated, [Liberation of Fossil Rock]!"

Special Summon 1 of your banished Rock-Type monsters to your field.

"Rise, [Electromagnetic Stone Warrior, Electromagnetic Berserker]!"

The one that was revived was, of course, the one that had made a proper appearance. So the trap card released a burst of light effects, and the figure of the Electromagnetic God was projected again.

[Electromagnetic Stone Warrior, Electromagnetic Berserker: Attack Power 3000]

President Kaiba crossed his arms and analyzed, "The game actually summoned a monster with an attack power of 3000 at this moment. If Atem doesn't have a countermeasure, the attack power of the [Dark Magician] won't be enough to defeat that monster."

Atum simply chuckled and said, "Too naive, AIBO! That kind of monster can't withstand the Black Magician's onslaught..."

As he spoke, he inserted the card in his hand into the duel disk.

"I activate the Spell Card [Heart Change] from my hand."

Choose 1 monster your opponent controls. Gain control of the chosen card until the End Phase of the turn you activate it.

Atum's hand: 1 → 0

The Electromagnetic Mad God moved uncontrollably onto King Yang's field.

Jonouchi: "Oh no, the game is empty again!"

Anzu: "Game..."

Looking at the Electromagnetic Berserker who had come before Atum, he laughed and said, "Now, the Electromagnetic Stone Warrior Electromagnetic Berserker will become my servant for this round."

"AIBO, I won't let you have any monsters on the field!"

"This time it's really over, AIBO!"

The game shouted, "It's not over yet! My battle isn't over!"

"I activate the effect of the Trap Card 'Magnetic Shift' from my Graveyard!"

You can banish this card from your Graveyard, then target 1 of your banished Level 4 or lower Magnet Warrior monsters; Special Summon that monster.

Atum's eyes widened in disbelief. "Impossible?! When was that document placed in the cemetery?"

"Have you forgotten, my other self? One of the three cards that [Card Gunner] put in the graveyard was one that you didn't confirm."

"Could it be that!?"

Yugi nodded and continued, "That's right, that card is [Magnetic Transformation]. With its effect, I Special Summoned the banished [Electromagnetic Stone Warrior γ] in Defense Position."

Om-! !

After a flash of light, the Electromagnetic Stone Warrior γ reappeared.

[Electromagnetic Stone Warrior γ: Defense 2000]

"Impressive, AIBO. You managed to summon a shield monster at such a crucial moment, but one monster alone can't block all the attacks."

The game didn't take that statement seriously.

He calmly waved his left hand and lifted the cover card next to his left foot.

"Activate the trap card, [Half-damage, Unbreakable]!"

You can activate this effect by selecting 1 monster on the field. This turn, the selected monster cannot be destroyed by battle, and battle damage to yourself from that monster's battles is halved.

"Now, you can no longer defeat [Electromagnetic Stone Warrior γ] in this round, as it is the other me."

The game survived another round.

"As expected of you, AIBO! You still won't give up even now, but defeating me won't be that easy..."

As he spoke, Atum spun the deck on the Duel Disk.

"Change [Magician's Staff] to Defense Position, End Turn."

[Magician's Wand: Defense 100]

The game quickly said, "Since the other me's turn has ended, the effect of [Heart Change] has also ended, and [Electromagnetic Stone Warrior Electromagnetic Berserker] has returned to my field."

The Electromagnetic God then floated back to his front.

Then it was his turn.

"This is the final round, my other self."

Atum was startled upon hearing the game's declaration.

"What did you say?!"

He glanced instinctively at the floating gold cabinet opposite him, thinking, "Could it be that card...?"

At this moment, the game finally drew a card.

"My turn, draw a card!"

[Yugi Muto's hand cards: 0→1]

After glancing at his hand, he continued, "During my preparation phase, the seal on the Golden Vault was broken, and the cards that had been sealed for two rounds were added to my hand."

[Yugi Muto's hand cards: 1→2]

Chapter 264 The Birth of the Crouching Dragon

As soon as the player receives the card, the golden chest floating on the field opens its lid.

The card hidden inside slowly rose, releasing a golden light powerful enough to illuminate the temple.

"The sealed card is about to be released..."

Everyone stared intently at the card on it.

Even the Seahorse Brothers standing at the back couldn't help but step forward a few paces, wanting to see what the card looked like.

Before long, the card floated out of the gold cabinet, and the golden light on it dissipated, revealing the card's true form.

It was a Fusion Spell Card, with an image of a red-eyed dragon and a demon printed on it.

Atum paused for a moment upon seeing the card before him, "Red-Eyes Fusion... that's Jonouchi's..."

Seeing this, President Kaiba scoffed disdainfully, "Hmph, boring! I didn't expect it to be a mortal card. You've wasted my expectations of you. Game!"

"Hey, Seahorse, don't underestimate my cards!"

"Hmph~, then tell me, does Red-Eyes have any powerful fusion monsters that can decide the outcome?"

"Uh......"

This question stumped Jōnei, who stammered and couldn't answer; he genuinely couldn't think of a solution.

The seahorse crossed its arms and said coldly, "I knew you couldn't answer that with your mortal bones. What a waste of my time..."

Instead of refuting his usual sarcastic remark, Jonouchi calmly replied, "Perhaps it's true, but I believe in the game. He will definitely be able to unleash the full power of that card."

"Hmph, you have a lot of confidence in him?"

Jonouchi nodded, replying with a proud look, "Yes, of course! After all, the game just said that this is the last round. Since he said that with such confidence, he can definitely do it. After all, he never makes empty promises."

Kyoko agreed: "That's right, that's how games have always been."
