Yu-Gi-Oh! Heroes

Asuka: "Could it be that Yusei is planning to...?"

“…That’s it!”

After calming himself down, Youxing raised his arm and looked forward. "I will stack the 4-star [Phantom Knights Dark Cloth Mask] with the 4-star [Entertainment Mage Trickster] to perform an Xyz Summon!"

426 This Phantom Demon is Not That Phantom Demon

A black vortex representing the Xyz Summoning suddenly appeared in front of Yusei as he finished speaking.

The human-faced armor with blue flames burning all over its body and the magic clown playing with the balancing ball and the round-headed staff suddenly turned into two silver-white lights and plunged into the black vortex together.

After that, a brilliant golden light burst out from the center of the vortex.

The fourth-level super monster is about to reveal itself!

“…My battle begins from here!”

"Place your hope on the white wings. Appear! The incarnation of light - [No.39 Hope Emperor Hope]!"

The golden royal key was born from the black vortex!

It slowly unfolded and eventually turned into a warrior wearing golden armor.

That sacred figure is the proof of being a warrior of light!

“…【No.39 Hope King Hope】!”

"Ahhh! It's Hope!!! Yusei... is really getting serious!"

In just the first round, Yusei demonstrated two completely different operations: fusion and hyper.

In the absence of a universal auxiliary connection card like the "Water Machine Hundred Dragon", he calmly pretended to be good at comparing! He also mobilized everyone's confidence.

"...Ambush two cards, end of turn."

After completing the fusion and the Xyz summoning, Yusei originally planned to do a second round of deployment on top of it.

However, after thinking for a moment, he finally gave up the plan.

Because he suddenly remembered something.

That is... this [Three Phantom Demons] is not that [Three Phantom Demons].

Unlike the three phantom magic cards that are very salty after being OCG-ized, these cards in the original animation have extremely strong abnormal resistance. They are not affected by the effects of trap cards or the effects of magic cards that are not activated in this turn.

If you continue to deal with it according to your previous thinking, you will most likely be the one who suffers.

“Hehehehe… Next, it’s my turn!”

Waving his mechanical arm, Yingwan drew a card from the deck, and then... he directly ambushed his three cards in the backcourt: "I will ambush three trap cards from my hand."

"Ah? This guy... why did he specifically mention the types of cards?" Everyone looked puzzled and couldn't help but raise a questioning voice: "There is obviously no need to reveal your own card information?"

Judging from Yingwan's behavior, if he builds an [Ancient Relic] monster in the backfield, wouldn't that directly expose his purpose?

"Heh...what do you know?"

Disdaining everyone's doubts, Yingwan responded: "This is the summoning condition required for the phantom demon!"

"...Nani?!"

"The summoning conditions of the phantom demon???"

"Heh... all of you guys, watch out! This is the true form of the Phantom!" His eyes suddenly widened, Yingwan raised his arm, and called out loudly: "I send the three trap cards on the field to the graveyard for special summoning!"

"Come out! The First Phantom Demon——【Divine Flame Emperor Uriah】!!!"

As Yingwan finished speaking, three trap cards were turned over one by one in front of him.

These cards that were released as sacrifices to the phantom demon suddenly turned into three golden beams of light and fell into the obelisk behind Yingwan.

Then... a burst of flames suddenly ignited into the sky, dyeing the entire sky red.

From the flames all over the sky, a huge red dragon, circling its body, appeared in front of everyone, releasing unstoppable world-destroying pressure.

"What's this?!"

"A dragon born from flames?"

“Divine Flame Emperor… is this the Three Phantom Demons? This aura… ahhhhh… this is really not good!!!”

Fierce gusts of wind shook the earth, and with the appearance of one of the three phantom demons, an aura that could not be ignored began to spread around.

【Uriah the Flame God】(Animation)

(Flame Clan/Flame/10 Stars/Attack Power: 0/Defense Power: 0)

effect:

This card cannot be Normal Summoned, and can only be Special Summoned by sending 3 Trap Cards on your field to the Graveyard.

①: This card is not affected by the effects of Trap Cards, and the effects of Spell Cards are only effective during the turn they are activated.

②: This card's ATK and DEF become the number of Trap Cards in your Graveyard x 1000.

③: Once per turn, you can destroy all Trap Cards on your opponent's field (turn over the covered cards to confirm).

④: If this card is in the Graveyard, you can send 1 Trap Card from your hand to the Graveyard, and Special Summon this card from the Graveyard. During this turn, if you have a monster other than this card on your field, this card cannot attack.

-

"The attack and defense of [Divine Flame Emperor Uriya] will become the number of Trap Cards in the Graveyard * 1000 points. Since there are three Trap Cards in my Graveyard, her attack and defense will also increase to 3000 points!"

(【Divine Flame Emperor Uriah】Attack Power: 0→3000)

Red fighting spirit spread all over his body, and the attack power of the Divine Flame Emperor also skyrocketed to 3000.

"3... 3000... Summoning a monster with 3000 attack power right at the start???"

"No! Not only that... Shen Yanhuang's attack power will increase with the number of trap cards in her graveyard... In other words, as long as there are enough trap cards in Yingwan's graveyard, her attack power will also rise to a very terrifying value!!!"

"The most annoying thing is... this effect is permanent. It will change automatically without being activated..."

"Yuxing...what are you going to do?"

Shocked by the figure of the Divine Flame Emperor, everyone couldn't help but feel worried for You Xing.

Even though they were so far away, they felt an overwhelming pressure.

It is really hard to imagine what it would feel like to be in the center of a vortex...

"Um..."

"Um, I've been wanting to ask this since a while ago..."

His pupils turned golden, and he used the power of the spirits to directly counteract the pressure from the phantom demon. Yuxing showed a puzzled look on his face: "Using she instead of it to describe the Divine Flame Emperor, does that mean... this phantom demon is a female?"

There was no abnormal reaction like everyone else. Youxing, who was in the center of the vortex of oppression, was just like in normal state, with no sign of discomfort on his face.

Not only that, he also asked a tricky question.

Everyone: “Uh…”

Yingwan: “???”

I was a little confused by Youxing's unique ideas, and the surroundings fell into silence in an instant.

Not only the people behind him, but even his opponent Yingwan, couldn't help but beaded with sweat on his head.

Yingwan: "What's the male and female thing... What does this have to do with the duel?"

Youxing: "It's okay, I just mentioned it casually..."

"Hmph! What are the young people of today thinking about? Instead of worrying about these unimportant things, they might as well focus on the duel!"

Shocked by Yusei's unconscious words, Kagemaru snorted coldly, then waved his arm and placed a monster in his hand on the Duel Board: "Normal Summon [Dark Summoning God] (Demon-Type/Dark/2*/Attack: 0/Defense: 0) and activate its effect. When this card is successfully summoned, add one of "Flame God Emperor Uriah", "Thunder Emperor Hamon", "Phantom Demon Emperor Labiere" or one card with any of those card names other than "Dark Summoning God" from your deck to your hand."

A small alien demon, waving its bat wings, appeared under the God Flame Emperor.

Although its attack power is 0, this demon with purple aura surrounding it also gives off an uncomfortable atmosphere.

"Hahahahaha... I know! Summoned Beast Merkaba can negate the effects of corresponding Magic, Trap and Monster Cards and banish them by discarding cards from its hand... This effect is really tricky!"

Shaking his arms, Yingwan uttered a mocking voice: "But... do you dare to use it? Let me remind you... the effect of the Divine Flame Emperor has not been activated yet!"

"...Tsk!"

Indeed... Yusei was thinking whether to activate the effect of Merkaba at this time to fight against the monster [Dark Summoning God] which served as the starting point.

But...if it is invalidated and excluded at this time, then the Divine Flame Emperor who has lost his restraint will be able to directly overturn his backcourt.

If it is not activated... then Merkaba, who is in a stalemate with the Flame God, will not be able to have any impact on the deployment of the Shadow Pill...

This is a bit difficult...

"Hmph! Based on the effect of [Dark Summoning God], I added the Continuous Magic Card [Seven Stars' Spirit Gate] from the deck to my hand, and then activated it directly!"

Seeing that Yusei didn't interrupt, Kagemaru retrieved a card from his deck, and then placed it directly on the Duel Board: "As the effect of [Seven Stars' Essence] when it is activated, I can add one of [Divine Flame Emperor Uriah], [Thunder Emperor Hamon], [Phantom Demon Emperor Rabiel], or a monster with any of those card names from my deck to my hand."

"...I choose to search for [Summoning God of Darkness]."

After one round of search, there is a new round of search.

As the continuous magic card was activated, Yingmaru, with a smile on his face, took a new Demon monster in his hand.

"According to the second effect of [Dark Summoning God], as long as this card exists in the Monster Zone, you can Normal Summon it only once, and during your Main Phase you can Summon 1 Demon-Type monster with 1 ATK and DEF."

Replacing the original [Dark Summoning God], Yingmaru placed the card he had just retrieved on the duel disk: "I release [Dark Summoning God] as a sacrifice and summon... [Dark Summoning God] (Demon/Dark/5 Stars/Attack: 0/Defense: 0)!"

The red wings spread out, and the humanoid demon appeared in front of Yingmaru with a hypocritical smile, accompanied by the light of summons.

Everyone: "...Two summons? And they're both monsters with 0 attack power?"

"Now is the point!" Satisfied with everyone's surprised expressions, Yingmaru continued, "Activate the effect of [Dark Summoning God]! Release this card, and then I can Special Summon one of [Divine Flame Emperor Uriah], [Thunder Emperor Hamon], or [Phantom Demon Emperor Rabiael] from my hand or deck, ignoring the summoning conditions..."

Everyone: "It's actually... a special summon that ignores the summoning conditions???"

Kagemaru: "...But, during the turn when the effect is activated, your monsters cannot attack."

"Chain the effect of [Dark Summoning God]... I activate the effect of [Summoned Beast Merkaba] and discard [Shadow Mist Lady] from my hand to negate the effect of [Dark Summoning God] and banish it!"

Just when the new phantom demon was about to appear, Yusei finally activated the effect of Merkaba and stopped Yingmaru from launching the next move.

The Silver Knight driving the God's Chariot swung the sword in his hand, punishing the alien demon and sending it directly to the other side of the dimension.

"Humph! You finally can't help it?"

Kagemaru, whose monster was banished, immediately responded, "Then I will also activate the effect of [Divine Flame Emperor Uriya], once per turn, to destroy all the face-up cards in your backfield! Trap Destruction!!!"

As Yingwan's words fell, a powerful ultrasonic shock was generated from the mouth of Shen Yanhuang.

As a result, the cards on the star field were forcibly turned over, and then destroyed and sent to the graveyard.

He stretched out his arm towards Youxing, activated the effect of Yingwan, and the corners of his mouth hidden under the ventilator slightly curled up.

This one-for-two exchange is a sure win for him!

Although he failed to successfully summon the second phantom demon, it was still a major blow to Yusei.

"Destruction? That's great!"

"...Nani?!"

Yusei, whose Gakuga was knocked over, did not show any despair as Yingmaru had expected. Instead, he said something that surprised Yingmaru as if his plan was in place.

"The two cards I just destroyed... are [Holy Shield - Mirror Force -] and [Stirring Up trouble]."

Noble Power is useless against the three phantom demons that are not affected by trap cards, but [Provoking Snakes by Provoking Grass] is different!

"At this moment, the effect of [Stirring Up Trouble] will also be activated. This can only be activated if this Set card leaves the field due to an opponent's effect, is sent to the Graveyard, or is banished. Special Summon 1 monster from your Deck or Extra Deck!"

427 Golden Crispy Chicken

"What...it's actually [stirring up trouble]!!!"

Looking at the trap card he had just destroyed, Yingmaru's face suddenly showed an ugly expression as if he was constipated.

This is... it's like giving a big monster to the opponent for free!

Why can't I control my hands?
