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

"Then during your End Phase, activate the Trap Card 'Treating Reinforcements', and Special Summon 1 Level 2 or lower Warrior-Type monster from your Deck using this card's effect, and Special Summon 'Key Warrior', a Level 2 monster."

The next second, a card popped out of the deck. Yusei decisively drew it and slammed it onto the Duel Disk. Instantly, a warrior wearing armor and a shield made of chains appeared, wielding a key-shaped sword.

"Then it was my turn!"

Yusei glanced at his hand, then without thinking, picked up another card and threw it out: "Summon [Nitrogen Synchron]."

As the Nitrogen Tank Robot appeared, he pressed the button on the face-down card: "Then I activate the Continuous Trap [Angel Ascension], Special Summon 1 Level 2 or lower monster from my Graveyard in Attack Position, and Special Summon Level 1 [Harmonizer].

Seeing three monsters appear on the field in the blink of an eye, the black-robed man said with a contemptuous smile, "Heh~, a total of five-star material monsters. Synchro monsters summoned with such meager materials can't beat my Dark Synchro Monsters!"

"Not always!"

"what?"

Yusei calmly explained: "Another effect of [Synthesis Supporter] is that this card can be used as a Level 2 monster when used as Synchro Material."

"And I activate the monster effect of [Key Warrior] again, and once per turn, I can make this card Level 3 for this turn."

This allows for a Synchro Summon at Rank 7.

So Yusei raised his arm and shouted, "I'm using a Level 3 Key Warrior and a Level 2 Synchronizer to tune a Level 2 Nitrogen Synchronizer!"

'Mud!'

At this moment, the pressure gauge of the nitrogen tank quickly rotates to the far right, thereby initiating the adjustment force.

"May our gathered prayers become a new force, a path that shines with light!"

Synchro Summon! Burn, [Nitrogen Warrior]!

In an instant, a bright green light shone in the parking lot, and a giant-butt warrior burst through the light and landed in front of the star.

[Nitrogen Warrior: Attack Power 2800]

"If this card becomes material for a Nitrogen Synchro Monster and is sent to the Graveyard, you draw one card from your Deck. Combined with the effect of Synchro Supporter, you draw a total of two cards."

[Yusei Fudo's hand cards: 2 → 4]

Then Yusei waved his hand and shouted, "Battle begins! Use [Nitrogen Warrior] against [Fitzgerald the Frozen], Burst Fist!"

At his command, the Big-Butt Warrior leaped into the air and thrust out his fists, instantly conjuring a pair of enormous green energy fist shadows that smashed into the Ice Demon, shattering it into pieces with a loud bang.

"Hmph, a useless attack! [Fitzgerald the Frozen] will keep resurrecting!"

No sooner had the man in black finished speaking than Fitzgerald's body instantly reformed.

"This is the moment I've been waiting for. The monster effect of [Nitrogen Warrior] is activated. This card can only be activated after damage calculation when it destroys an opponent's monster by attacking. Target 1 of your opponent's face-up Defense Position monsters, change it to Attack Position, and let it battle again."

Fitzgerald the Frozen: Attack Power 2500

"[Nitrogen Warrior] Keep attacking, Bursting Fist!"

So the nitrogen warrior swung his fist again and shattered Fitzgerald once more.

"Hmm...!"

[Black-robed man: LP4000→3700]

Seeing Fitzgerald destroyed once again, the man in black showed no anger whatsoever. Instead, he laughed even more heartily, "Hmph, h ...

"Due to the effect of [Fitzgerald the Frozen], I will once again Special Summon it in Defense Position."

Fitzgerald the Frozen: Defense 2500

Yusei: "Isn't there a limit of once per turn...?"

The man in black robes sneered again, "That's not all. [Fitzgerald of the Frozen Realm] will destroy all the monsters that attacked it at the end of the battle phase."

"what?!"

The Ice Demon unleashed another barrage of ice arrows, instantly freezing and shattering the Nitrogen Warriors.

Chapter Thirty-Six: One-Punch Man

Seeing his monster being destroyed again, Yusei's expression changed slightly. "Does infinite resurrection destroy monsters?"

"That's right, this is the power of the Dark Synchro Monster. The Dark Signer can never be defeated, and will continue to revive along with the Black Mark!"

You mean the Darkmarkers?!

The man in black robes sneered, "The red marks you possess will soon be stained black as well."

"What do you know?"

"That's what this duel powerfully tells us: all those you rely on will disappear from this world, just like the monsters on your field."

"Still unwilling to talk? Then I'll defeat you first and then force you to answer..." Seeing that the other party was still a riddle, Yusei was too lazy to continue asking questions. "Set a card down, end of turn."

[Yusei Fudo's hand cards: 4 → 3]

"My turn!"

[Black-robed man's hand cards: 4 → 5]

After glancing at his hand, the man in black robes said, "Change [Fitzgerald of the Frozen] to attack position... Battle begins! Direct attack on the player! Blizzard Strike!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the Ice Demon fired out a large number of ice arrows again, which then poured onto Yusei.

"Uh-huh...!"

[Yusei Fudo: LP 4000 → 1500]

After finishing, the man in black grabbed four cards and set them to the back row. "I'll set four more cards face down. End of turn."

[Black-robed man's hand cards: 5 → 1]

Seeing the other person slap down four cards in one go, Yusei's eyes sharpened. "Four cards slapped down? Then..."

"My turn!"

[Yusei Fudo's hand cards: 3 → 4]

After glancing at the card he had drawn, Yusei immediately grabbed another card from his hand and slammed it onto the Duel Disk: "Summon Tuner Monster [Junk Synchron], and Special Summon [Key Warrior] from the Graveyard through its effect."

"Another Synchro Summon? You really don't learn your lesson..."

Ignoring the opponent's taunts, Yusei continued his operation: "Then, if I have a Tuner monster on my field, I Special Summon [Push Warrior] from my hand in Defense Position, and according to its effect, all Warrior-Type monsters I control gain 300 ATK while [Push Warrior] is on the field."

[Scrap Synchron: Attack Power 1300 → 1600]

[Advance Warrior: Attack Power 300 → 600]

He then pressed the button to set the card, "Activate the Trap Card 'Lost Stars', Special Summon a Synchro Monster from the Graveyard in Defense Position. Monsters Special Summoned by this effect lose 1 Level, have 0 DEF, have their effects negated, and cannot change their battle position."

"Come on, [Nitrogen Warriors]!"

With a burst of light, the Big Butt Warrior reappeared.

[Nitrogen Warrior: Attack 2800→3100, Defense 1800→0]

"Then I activate the Spell Card [Resonance Device] from my hand. I select two monsters on my field that have the same Type and Attribute. The Level of one of these monsters becomes the same as the Level of the other monster this turn."

"Both [Propulsion Warrior] and [Nitrogen Warrior] are fire-attribute warrior-type monsters, thus [Nitrogen Warrior] becomes a level one monster."

With that, Yusei's preparations were complete, and he shouted, "I'll use my level 2 Key Warrior to tune my level 3 Junk Synchron!"

"Let the gathered stars awaken new life and become a shining path!"

"Synchro Summon! Appear, [Scrap Warrior]!"

The moment the sound faded, a beam of synchronized light shot out, and the Split Warrior immediately emerged from the light.

'drink--!'

[Scrap Warrior: Attack Power 2300 → 2600]

"[Scrap Warrior]'s monster effect: If this card is Synchro Summoned, this card's ATK increases by the sum of the ATKs of Level 2 or lower monsters you control."

[Scrap Warrior: Attack Power 2600 → 6300]

"Using those low-level monsters, the attack power actually reached 6300 points!?"

The man in black robes opened his mouth slightly, clearly surprised, but he didn't panic, because his Geka wasn't just for show...

However, at that moment, Yusei threw out his last card, "It's not over yet, I'll activate the quick-play spell [Scrap Fist] again!"

[Yusei Fudo's hand cards: 4 → 0]

"This card can select one 'Junk Warrior' on your field. Depending on its effect, if 'Junk Warrior' battles an opponent's monster this turn, your opponent cannot activate the effects of Spells, Trap Cards, or Monsters until the end of the Damage Step."

"Nani?!"

This meant the black-robed man couldn't open his card during battle. "There's nothing I can do..."

As the man in black robes spoke, he quickly pressed a button on the duel disk.

"Activate the Quick-Play Spell Card [Extravagant Food], send any number of Spell/Trap Cards other than yourself to the Graveyard, recover 1000 Life Points equal to that number, and send the remaining three face-down cards to the Graveyard..."

The remaining three face-down cards were revealed before Yusei's eyes: [Ice Mirror], [Ice Mirror], and [Explosive Armor].

That was close! If Yusei hadn't activated [Scrap Fist], he would have been blown up by [Explosive Armor] if he had attacked rashly.

At that moment, as the three face-down cards disappeared, the black-robed man's health points instantly increased dramatically.

[Black-robed man: LP3700→6700]

Watching his opponent's life points change, Yusei remained calm. "It's useless. [Scrap Fist] has more than one effect. When [Scrap Warrior] battles an opponent's monster, the opponent takes double battle damage."

"What did you say?! So that means the harm I'm going to suffer is..."

6300 minus 2500 equals 3800, and double that is 7600 damage. That's what you call One-Punch Man! (Smug face)

Then Yusei waved his hand and shouted, "Battle begins! Use [Scrap Warrior] against [Fitzgerald the Frozen], Scrap Fist!!"

Under his command, the thrusters on the back of the Split Warrior propelled it into the air, and then it swung a punch at the enemy.

The next second, the power of this punch transformed into a massive energy fist shadow, instantly shattering Fitzgerald into a large number of ice blocks, all of which poured onto the black-robed man.

"Gurgle... Ugh... Ahhh!!"

[Black-robed man: LP6700→0]

Chapter Thirty-Seven: The Dragon Markers and the Dark Markers

As the man in black robes was thrown to the ground, the surrounding purple flames quickly disappeared.

Yusei rushed over, grabbed the other person by the collar, and lifted him up: "Hey! Get up and answer my question!"

"Uh... Ahh..." The man took off his hood, revealing the face of a background actor who had just woken up.

"What exactly will happen in the satellite region? Answer me!"

"You mean the satellite area...?" Faced with Yusei's question, the man looked completely bewildered, then his expression changed: "Ouch! How did I get this injury...? What exactly is this place?"

"You don't remember anything?"

Just as Yusei was wondering what was going on, he suddenly noticed a spider crawling out of the man's neck.

Just as Yusei was about to grab it, the spider suddenly disappeared, along with the spider mark on the man's right arm.

'The mark has disappeared?! Was it being controlled?'

Just as he was making this guess, a woman's voice suddenly came from behind him: "Dick? Aren't you Dick Peeta? Why would a street duelist like you duel the new king?"

At that moment, a girl with mosquito coil-shaped glasses walked up from behind Yusei, and the Dick she had just mentioned was clearly the black-robed man in front of Yusei who was being controlled by someone.

"you are?"

Upon hearing Yusei's voice, the woman turned around with great interest, pointing a recording pen at him: "I'm reporter Carly, um... New King Fudo Yusei, regarding the duel just now, could you please tell me what exactly happened? Why did it have such a realistic impact, and..."

Piyu Xing remained expressionless and did not reply, instead turning his gaze to the Duel Disk on the ground.

He instinctively reached out and took the deck off to check, only to find that two cards were missing!

'Dark Tuners and Dark Synchro Monsters have disappeared... What exactly is a Darksignor?'

"Oh right, I think I saw a line, and then my consciousness suddenly became blurry." This was Dick's last memory.

"Six. That spider's thread just now, so you were definitely being controlled by someone."

"What's going on?" Just as Carly was wondering what Yusei meant by those words, a police siren suddenly sounded outside.

"Huh?! A guard?!"

4 “It seems the duel just now alerted them…” Yusei said as he stood up.
