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

Kaiba clenched his fist and said excitedly, "Well done, Game. This way, Dartz won't be able to revive [Orichalcos]."

Yugi nodded in response, then continued, "I will offer the [Sacrifice Kuriboh] as a sacrifice to seal the effects of your monster."

"And if [Kuriboh Sacrifice] is Tributed, its special effect is activated: Draw one card from your Deck."

As he spoke, the game drew another card.

[Yugi Muto's hand cards: 2→3]

After he finished, he turned his gaze back to the other side.

"AIBO, now's the time. This is our only chance to defeat that immortal monster."

"Ah."

After responding to the king's call, Yugi waved his arm and shouted, "Go! [Black Chaos Magician - Black Chaos Ultimate Magician] Attack [Orichalcos]!"

The Dark Chaos Archmage raised his wand, gathering chaotic power and attaching it to the blade.

Then, with a flick of his wrist, a jet-black energy blade shot forward.

Just as it was about to strike Qijias...

"Nani!?"

The seahorse stared in astonishment at the scene before it.

A wall of light suddenly appeared in front of Qijias, blocking the light blade.

"Orichalcos Second Barrier..."

That's right, if you look closely you can see that it's an obstacle formed by the second layer of barrier folding over.

Dartz then explained, "The second effect of [Orichalcos Aura] is to sacrifice one of your monsters to nullify your opponent's attack and destroy the attacking monster."

"What was destroyed was, of course, the [Dark Chaos Magician - Dark Chaos Ultimate Magician]!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the blade of light was reflected back.

"not good!!"

The game couldn't be stopped.

Bang bang——!

The Black Chaos Extreme Magic was instantly shattered, and at the same time, Qijias was also pulverized.

Miscalculated.

I didn't expect my opponent to be so tough; it seems I'll have to play more cautiously.

"Finally, I'll set two more cards face down, and the turn ends."

[Yugi Muto's hand cards: 3→1]

Chapter 133 The Third Layer of Barrier

"This is terrible, neither Yugi nor Kaiba have any monsters on their fields."

Seeing this disadvantageous situation, everyone couldn't help but worry about the two of them.

"My turn, draw a card!"

[Dazs Hand Cards: 0 → 1]

With Qijias gone, Dartz can finally draw cards normally again.

He then said, "During my preparation phase, I will pay 500 health points to keep the perpetual trap [Mark of Evil] alive."

[Dartz: LP5100→4600]

"But I have six monsters on my field, and thanks to the effect of [Orichalcohol Aura], my life points are restored by 3000."

[Dartz: LP4600→7600]

"why is it like this......"

"Dartz's health is increasing."

The crowd grew increasingly anxious.

At this moment, Dartz continued, "Yugi, Seto, let me show you the true power of the Orichalcos barrier, and make you sacrifices to our god!"

"The barrier of Orichalcos..."

"True power..."

The game and the seahorse suddenly realized something.

Dartz raised the card in his hand and shouted, "Yes, activate it! The third barrier of Orichalcos, [Orichalcos Toritos]!"

[Dazs Hand Cards: 1 → 0]

"With this card, the barrier of Orichalcos is truly complete."

As soon as he finished speaking, a third layer of ancient script appeared on the outer side of the barrier, slowly rotating.

The barrier only became complete when it completely stopped rotating.

"Orichalcos Tolitos..."

The game sensed a very ominous power emanating from the barrier.

"【Orichalcos Torritos】 has the ability to negate Spell Cards and Trap Cards activated on my monsters, so there's no obstacle now."

"Yugi, Seto, your little tricks are no longer effective against me."

““…””

Both Yugi and Kaiba fell silent.

This kind of formation is indeed a bit troublesome.

While it's far from despairing, the main problem is that there are just too many unfamiliar cards in the game, making it easy to fall into traps secretly set by Dartz, resulting in a complete first-time kill.

However, the game wasn't completely unprepared.

He then pressed the button and said, "Then I'll open the face-down card and activate the Trap Card [Dragon Storm Returns]."

You can target 1 banished monster (either yours or your opponent's). Special Summon that monster to your field. The monster Special Summoned by this effect returns to its owner's hand during the End Phase.

A whirlwind instantly swept across the game field.

When the whirlwind dissipates, a mechanical turtle with electrodes drawn on its abdomen and magnets attached to its tail appears.

[Super Electromagnetic Turtle: Defense 1800]

The strategy for the game is simple: since the Mirror Knight's attack power is determined by the opponent's monster, you can completely defend by making your monster's defense power higher than its attack power.

The Electromagnetic Turtle, with its zero attack power, made it impossible for Dartz to break through its defenses, which was quite awkward.

So Dartz set his sights on the company president.

"Go, Mirror Knights, attack Seto directly!"

At his command, the four Mirror Knights charged toward the president and slashed at him one by one.

The president also wanted to open his card, but in the end he hesitated and didn't press the button.

"Ugh—!!"

The president was then slashed four times by the opponent, taking most of the damage.

Seto Kaiba: LP 4000 → 2000

"End of round."

After finishing the treatment, Dartz had nothing left to do.

At the same time, the Electromagnetic Turtle on the field returned to the game's hands.

[Yugi Muto's hand cards: 1→2]

Immediately afterwards, the seahorse eagerly drew out a card.

"My turn, draw a card!"

Seto Kaiba's hand cards: 2 → 3

Looking at the card, he clicked his tongue and muttered, "Tsk! [Wheel of Destruction]... This is really bad timing..."

"There's no other way but to take a gamble."

Without further hesitation, the president pressed the button on the duel disk.

"Open the face-down card, the Trap Card [Gamble One, Gamble Eight] is activated!"

This effect can only be activated if your Life Points are lower than your opponent's. Reveal the top card of your Deck to both players. If it's a Level 1 or Level 8 monster, add that monster to your hand or Special Summon it. Otherwise, your opponent can choose one of the following effects to apply.

●The controller of this card has 1000 base points.

●The opponent's base score, as seen from the controller of this card, is restored to 8000.

Dartz looked amused. "Holy crap, entrusting your life to luck?!"

However, even if you don't draw a monster, you won't lose out. After all, if the president's life points become 1000, it's equivalent to losing 1000 of his own life points. Similarly, if Dartz's life points become 8000, it only gives the opponent 400 life points. The impact of both is not significant.

Of course, the president urgently needs to draw a level 8 monster and doesn't want to make a mistake.

"I'm betting everything on this gacha pull..."

As he spoke, he placed his fingers on the card deck.

"Degeneration!!"

The president forcefully pulled out the card.

When he looked at the card, a slight smile appeared on his lips. "Hmph, it seems that Lady Luck has finally come to my side."

The club president slammed the card onto the duel disk, exclaiming, "Yay! [Blue-Eyes 3D Dragon]!"

With a flash of light, a giant silver-white dragon with wings resembling a duel disk and radiating colorful light was projected.

Blue-Eyes Tri-Dragon: Attack Power 2500

Then, the seahorse pointed at the sea urchin and shouted, "And at this moment, the special effect of [Blue-Eyes Dragon] activates, nullifying the effect of [Orichalcoatl]!"

As a monster that received special attention, Dartz certainly wouldn't sit idly by and let it be sealed away.

So he quickly said, "It's no use, I'll activate the effect of the Trap Card [Skill Imprisonment] from the Graveyard!"

You can banish this card from your Graveyard, then target 1 card on your field to activate this effect. This turn, negate the monster effects activated by the targeted card.

A shield of light then appeared in front of the sea urchin.

"The final effect of [Skill Imprisonment] has been used up. Now is the best time to deal with [Mirror Knight's Call], Kaiba-kun!"

"No need for you to remind me, the game is starting!"

"Can it be done?"

"Hmph, who do you think I am?"

With the seahorse's inherent pride, it cannot allow itself to fail.

So he picked up a card from his hand and inserted it into the Duel Disk. "I will activate the Spell Card [Advanced Draw] and offer up the Level 8 [Blue-Eyes 3D Dragon] on the field as a tribute to draw two cards from my Deck."

boom!

The instant the 3D Dragon shattered and disappeared, Kaiba drew two cards from his deck.

Chapter 134 Destroying Dragon

"Degeneration!!"

Seto Kaiba's hand cards: 3 → 4

The moment he drew the card, Seto Kaiba's aura surged.

"Hahahaha, ahahahaha~! Here it comes, here it comes~! The Reversal card that's been sleeping in my deck!"

He laughed loudly as he held up a card and shouted, "Come on, legendary dragon Critia!"

Suddenly, an unnamed wind rose beneath the seahorse's feet, and divine light burst forth from the card.

As the light faded, a colossal black dragon appeared above him.

"Critics..."
