Officer Fujino, with his hands behind his back, was very satisfied with the current situation.
Although it seemed that the gap in LP was only 500, the LP value of 1500 was already like a candle in the wind in front of the Volcanic deck that mainly focuses on burning LP, and it could went away at any time!
Just hold on until the next turn!
The poor soldier who was dueling in the arena obviously didn't know that his boss had planted death flags all over his body.
As the old adage goes: some people are walking, but they are already dead.
The moment the death flag was in place, this guy had already gone far.
The first person to notice this should be President Kaiba, who was watching the battle from the sidelines.
He glanced at Fujino with arrogant eyes, his appearance was as badass as ever, and he was a little complacent, and then his eyes quickly returned to Yuei Vu.
Alright, Yuei ↑ Vu ↓, let them see it!
What is the duel of the Duel King!
"I activate the effect of 'Fusion Substitute' in the graveyard!" Yuei Vu said, "Banish this card from my GY, and return the Fusion Monster 'Elemental HERO Gaia' in the graveyard to the deck, and then draw a card!"
Two cards popped up from the grave area. Yuei Vu put away two cards, drew a card from the deck, and added it to his hand.
The next thing was the real game.
"Summon 'Elemental HERO Liquid Soldier'!"
Water streams emerged, splashes splashed, and the hero in bright blue tights came to the field with a "hey" and posed a handsome pose.
[Elemental HERO Liquid Soldier, ATK 1400]
"Liquid Soldier… the card that was added to the hand by the effect of Stratos last round." Fujino muttered to himself, "Did the Duel King already calculate the arrangement for the next turn at that time?"
Kaiba seemed to have heard it, squinted at him, and pretended to be careless but snorted heavily.
Calculate to the next turn?
He calculated the victory of this duel from the very beginning!
"The effect of Liquid Soldier!" Yuei Vu said, "When this card is Normal Summoned: I can target 1 Level 4 or lower 'HERO' monster in my GY, except 'Elemental HERO Liquid Soldier'; Special Summon it. Let's resurrect, Elemental HERO Stratos!"
The blue water spray seemed to burst out from the cracks in the ground, and the white gusts rolled up. Brother Sky, dressed in a high-tech uniform, returned to the field again, hovering in mid-air under the thrust of the turbine with a clear cry.
[Elemental HERO Stratos, ATK 1800]
Fujino groaned: "Tch, it's this guy again…"
Even if it's the first time he has seen Brother Sky, now he's starting to find this hero a bit annoying…
Now Ueno's front row was empty, and the only things that could protect him were the Continuous Trap "Firewall" and two set cards. Then there was no doubt about what effect Brother Sky would activate here.
"The effect of Stratos is activated!" Yuei Vu said, "Destroy Spells/Traps on the field, up to the number of 'HERO' monsters I control, except this card!"
Realizing that he might not be able to keep his set cards, Ueno immediately chose to activate them: "Open the set card! Trap Card – Volcanic Force!
There's another one, Trap Card – Just Desserts! "
The two set cards were flipped open, one on the left and one on the right, standing in front of Ueno.
"The effect of Volcanic Force!" Ueno said, "Send 1 face-up 'Tri-Blaze Accelerator' on my side of the field to the Graveyard, Special Summon 1 'Volcanic Doomfire' from my hand, Deck, or Graveyard, ignoring the Summoning conditions!"
"Then comes the effect of Just Desserts!" Ueno continued, "Inflict 500 damage to the opponent for each monster they control.
Now you have two monsters, 'Elemental HERO Liquid Soldier' and 'Elemental HERO Stratos' on your field, so the damage is 1000 points! "
Fujino, who was watching the battle, shrank his pupils, his heart was ecstatic, and he felt as if his heartbeat had missed a beat.
We won!
Volcanic Doomfire was the ace monster of the Volcano Deck, its attack power was as high as 3000. And its effect was that the opponent must forcibly attack this monster during the battle phase. Also, when the Volcanic Doomfire destroyed an opponent's monsters by battle, all monsters on the opponent's field would be destroyed, and the opponent was dealt 500 points of damage for each one destroyed.
If the damage from Just Desserts was passed, and the Duel King's LP was only 500 left!
Then according to the effect of the Volcanic Doomfire, the opponent was forced to attack, and Yuei Vu's remaining LP would be directly cleared.
Little did he know, the moment he thought this way, he planted a bigger death flag on the heads of his subordinates who were struggling to play cards…
"But before that effect is resolved, I want to chain this card to it."
As Yuei Vu spoke, he drew a card from his hand.
"Quick-Play Spell – Mask Change!"
Ueno's eyelids twitched.
Appeared!
The symbol of the Duel King, the key card of Masked HERO!
"The effect of Mask Change – Send 1 'HERO' monster I control to the Graveyard, then Special Summon 1 'Masked HERO' monster from my Extra Deck with the same Attribute."
Yuei Vu pointed to Stratos on the field.
"I sent Stratos to the GY!"
The lonely hero puts on the mask of vengeance, and turns into a cutting wind to tear the evil!
Transform! Masked HERO Blast!"
The green whirlwind wrapped Stratos, and with the special effects of transformation, he was dressed in green armor. The red scarf fluttered in the wind, and the hero rode the whirlwind, spinning lightly and landing on the ground.
[Masked HERO Blast, ATK 2200]
"At this moment, Stratos's effect is processed, there are Liquid Soldier and Blast on my field. A total of two heroes." Yuei Vu said, "So, I choose two magic trap cards to destroy.
I destroy the Continuous Spell "Volcanic Wall" and the Continuous Trap "Firewall"! "
Stratos, who had already left the field, appeared as a phantom. The turbo hummed behind him, and the hurricane rolled up, tearing the two cards into pieces in an instant, and at the same time completely broke the position of Ueno's back row.
At the end of the last turn, Ueno's back row was packed full of five cards. So far, there was no one left. There was only Volcanic Doomfire left as the last line of defense.
"Just Desserts resolved!" Ueno still hadn't given up, "Give 1000 points of damage!"
[Yuei Vu, LP 1500 → LP 500]
It's a violent impact, puncture-like touch. Yuei Vu staggered back two steps, feeling a burning tingling sensation spreading along his internal organs.
"Then Volcanic Force resolved!" Ueno continued, "I Special Summon 'Volcanic Doomfire' from the Deck!"
The erupting flames wrapped the silver-white three-barreled cannon, melted it, and swallowed it underground. The lava erupted, and the burning red and sharp claws tore apart the fire curtain, and the huge body of the demon emerged from it.
It raised its head and hissed and roared, and the invisible sound waves spread out, shaking the soaring pillar of fire to explode in all directions.
[Volcanic Doomfire, ATK 3000]
"The Volcanic Doomfire's attack power is as high as 3000!" Officer Fujino continued to plant death flags for his subordinates, "This attack power cannot be defeated easily!
And according to the effect of the Volcanic Doomfire, the opponent must attack this monster with any Attack Position monsters they control! And when this card destroys a monster and sends it to the Graveyard, destroy all monsters the opponent controls and inflict 500 damage to the opponent for each monster destroyed by this effect!
As long as the battle is established, it is still our victory! "
Unfortunately… he would be disappointed.
"The effect of Masked HERO Blast!" Yuei Vu said, "When this card is successfully Special Summoned, the attack power of an opponent's monster will be halved!
Halve the Volcanic Doomfire's attack power! "
The green gust rushed forward, enveloping the demon's body, greatly restricting its activities and reducing its combat ability.
[Volcanic Doomfire, ATK 3000 → ATK 1500]
"Oops…" Fujino realized that he might tempt fate too much.
But he still didn't give up: "No. Even if this battle is established, it will only cause 700 points of damage, which is not enough to cause a defeat. The Duel King only has 500 LP left, as long as it reaches the next turn…"
"Activate Equip Spell – Favorite Hero!" Yuei Vu kept operating, "Equip to 'Masked HERO Blast'! Then at the start of the Battle Phase, the effect of Favorite Hero is activated! I can activate 1 Field Spell directly from my hand or Deck.
Bring it on! Field Spell – Skyscrapers! "
The moon hanging high in the sky, the skyscrapers soaring into the sky. The Gale Hero in green armor stands on top of a skyscraper, with his back to the bright moon, and his bright red scarf flutters under the moonlight.
"If there is a card in my Field Zone, the equipped monster gains ATK equal to its original DEF!" Yuei Vu said, "so the attack power of Blast is…"
[Masked HERO Blast, ATK 2200 → ATK 4000]
Officer Fujino was now completely sure that this duel has been turned over by himself: "Attack power… four thousand!?"
"It's so handsome!" Mokuba happily waved his little fist, "Go! Masked HERO! Finish him!!!"
President Kaiba was also laughing at first, but seeing Mokuba's excited look, he suddenly couldn't help thinking that there was a time when Mokuba was only so excited when he was watching himself duel.
So after thinking about it, the president's smile gradually disappeared, and he let out a heavy "hum" again.
"Masked HERO Blast!" Yuei Vu issued the final command, "Attack Volcanic Doomfire!
Hurricane Slash! "
Sprinting like a gust of wind, the hero turned into an invisible afterimage, cutting the demon's body with the green whirlwind. The volcanic demon screamed sharply, its solid body was cut open by the blast, and its body was pierced through it, like a flame erupting from hell, swallowing it whole and crushing it into pieces.
[Ueno, LP 2000 → LP 0]
