Looking at Jonouchi's obviously somewhat comical expression.
Judai Yuki knew that Jonouchi had already started regretting underestimating him.
However, his current hand was already enough to defeat the opponent...
"[Elemental HERO Solid Soldier]: When this card is successfully Normal Summoned, you can Special Summon 1 Level 4 or lower 'HERO' monster from your hand."
"Eh? He can still summon?"
Seeing Judai Yuki place a hand card into the Monster Zone, Jonouchi's eyelids twitched violently.
"I Special Summon, [Elemental HERO Stratos]."
A ball of blue air current surged in front of Judai Yuki.
A blue hero with two wings on its back appeared on Judai Yuki's field.
[Elemental HERO Stratos]
[Level: 4]
[ATK: 1800, DEF: 300]
Good, it's just a HERO with 1800 ATK... It's still far from enough to face my Gearfried the Red-Eyes Iron Knight, which has 2400 ATK.
Jonouchi breathed a sigh of relief, secretly feeling lucky.
"When Stratos is Normal or Special Summoned, you can add 1 'HERO' monster from your Deck to your hand."
Judai Yuki spread his deck, scanned it, then selected a card.
"I add [Elemental HERO Liquid Soldier] to my hand."
"Then."
Judai Yuki revealed a card in his hand.
"Activate Spell Card, [Polymerization]!"
It's coming!
Outside the glass window, the spectators who were watching the duel perked up.
Fusion.
The soul card of the HERO deck!
The HERO deck was known as a deck with infinite possibilities.
And the infinite possibilities of HEROes were contained in this small Polymerization card.
It could even be said that the core of the entire HERO deck was this seemingly unremarkable "Polymerization" card!
"I will Triple Fusion Summon, using [Elemental HERO Solid Soldier] and [Elemental HERO Stratos] from the field, and [Elemental HERO Liquid Soldier] from my hand!"
A fusion vortex soared on the field.
The figures of three heroes appeared behind Judai Yuki.
They leaped high, plunged into the colorful light, their figures continuously stretching until they disappeared.
"Triple Fusion?"
"Fusing three monsters at once?"
Outside the window, a small discussion erupted among the audience.
On the duel arena, Jonouchi swallowed, nervously watching what was about to happen.
Boom!
Accompanied by a flash of fire-like light.
The vortex instantly produced a colorful explosion.
Amidst the exclamations of the crowd.
A hero clad in snow-white armor, with red jewels embedded in his forehead and chest, appeared behind Judai Yuki.
He stood with his arms crossed, slowly descending from the air.
A strong, silent aura of majesty radiated from him, creating visible ripples that spread through the air.
"!"
"So strong..."
"This HERO..."
Whether it was Kaiba and Pegasus, who were watching the duel on screen, or Yugi Mutou, who was watching from below the duel arena.
They were all slightly shocked by the figure that appeared before them.
They could more or less feel it.
The power contained within this HERO monster.
It was like solid ground, unfathomably deep.
"[Elemental HERO Terra Firma]."
Judai Yuki slowly spoke the name of this Fusion Monster.
[Elemental HERO Terra Firma]
[Level: 9]
[ATK: 2700, DEF: 2200]
"Hiss, so powerful... another card I've never seen before."
"Judai Yuki's new HERO?"
"How many HERO monsters does this boy have hidden...?"
Outside the window, everyone gasped in surprise.
Many also took out their phones to take pictures, recording the moment the "new HERO" appeared.
"Attack power... 2700, it's indeed a very strong monster."
Jonouchi glanced at "Gearfried the Red-Eyes Iron Knight" on the field.
Although his monster's ATK was completely incomparable... as long as he survived this turn.
He still had a chance to counterattack.
After all, his deck also held some incredible guys.
"It's not over yet."
Judai Yuki smiled, interrupting Jonouchi's fantasy of victory.
Looking at Jonouchi's somewhat surprised expression, Judai Yuki said: "When [Elemental HERO Solid Soldier] is sent from the field to the Graveyard by a Spell Card's effect, you can target one 'HERO' monster in your Graveyard and Special Summon that monster in Defense Position."
"Furthermore, when [Elemental HERO Liquid Soldier] is used as a Fusion Material, you can draw two cards from your Deck and discard one card from your hand."
Judai Yuki looked at the duel disk and set the chain order for the two monsters' trigger effects.
"First, activate [Solid Soldier]'s effect: Special Summon [Elemental HERO Stratos] from the Graveyard in Defense Position."
"Then, according to [Elemental HERO Liquid Soldier]'s effect, I draw two cards from my Deck!"
"Due to chain rules, [Elemental HERO Liquid Soldier]'s effect will activate first."
Saying that, Judai Yuki drew two cards from his Deck.
"Eh? Why is this Judai Yuki making it so complicated?"
Outside the window, many spectators and duelists looked at Judai Yuki's operations with confusion.
"Exactly, chaining is basically just a very basic principle of 'later activation, earlier resolution', right? Whether [Liquid Soldier] draws cards first or [Solid Soldier] Special Summons from the Graveyard first, there's no need to follow such a specific order, right?"
"Hmph, this brat really likes to do things rigidly. It doesn't matter who chains first anyway."
"Hahaha, in the end, he's just a kid."
Many duelists also scoffed at Judai Yuki's actions.
They thought it was just a child's stubbornness about the order in which heroes appeared.
"Hey, you amateur duelists, can you shut up?"
At this moment, a young man standing in the front row watching the duel frowned and glared at the noisy people behind him.
"If you don't understand dueling, don't talk nonsense here, okay?!"
"You bastard, what are you talking about! You dare say I don't understand dueling? I'm a professional duelist!" The duelist who was retorted glared.
However, just as he was about to get angry, his companions around him immediately pulled him back.
"Hey, hey, don't cause trouble. He's President Kaiba's younger brother, Mokuba Kaiba," a companion whispered into that person's ear.
"What?"
Hearing that name, the duelist's heart skipped a beat, and he instantly closed his mouth.
Seto Kaiba's younger brother?
The second-in-command of KaibaCorp...
Why would he be in a place like this?
"Hmph, as a professional duelist, do you not even understand the most basic chaining and card effect activation timing?"
"How shameful. He's not even as good as a twelve or thirteen-year-old kid."
The young man snorted coldly, his hands behind his back, looking at Judai Yuki on the duel arena.
"Also."
"This Judai Yuki..."
"Are you really a child...?"
