Chapter 77: Shaddoll Fusion
Dragon Master Gaia's long spear, with Attack Points reaching 7100, pierced through the dragon breath and charged towards the giant dragon in the sky.
"Chief Kaito!" The Resistance Army warriors below instantly grew anxious.
"Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon Emperor's Effect Activation!" Kaito reached out towards the Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon Emperor above him and clenched his fist. Golden specks of light slowly rose from his right hand, flying towards the giant dragon in the sky, and the golden orbs revolving around Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon Emperor instantly lit up.
"During damage calculation when this card battles, by detaching 1 Overlay Material from this card, this card's Attack Points increase by the combined Ranks of all Xyz Monsters on the Field x 200, but only during that damage calculation."
No.62: Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon Emperor Attack Points: 4500 → 6100
"Not enough! This isn't enough!" Leiser, who was charging alongside the Dragon Knight on the dragon's back, laughed maniacally. "Go to Hell with your dragon!"
"If 'Galaxy-Eyes Afterglow Dragon' used as Overlay Material is detached to activate an Xyz Monster's effect: You can choose 1 'Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon' from your Hand or Deck and attach it to an Xyz Monster you control as an Overlay Material. If this effect is activated during the Battle Phase, all 'Number' Monsters you control have their Attack Points doubled."
"What?!" Leiser, resisting the dragon breath mid-air, widened his eyes.
With a loud dragon's roar, Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon leapt out from Kaito's Duel Disk, flapped its wings, and flew towards the giant dragon in the sky, transforming into a golden orb that slowly rotated. The Phantom of Galaxy-Eyes Afterglow Dragon also appeared behind the giant dragon at the opportune moment. The dragon breath spewed by the giant dragon suddenly grew thicker.
No.62: Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon Emperor Attack Points: 6100 → 12200
Leiser screamed and was swallowed along with the Dragon Knight by the surging torrent of light. The violent dragon breath slammed heavily into the ground. The Obelisk Force soldiers in the rear, who hadn't yet entered the battle due to the narrow road, were affected by the explosion and suffered heavy casualties.
Of course, the most miserable was still Leiser, who thought he was capable and insisted on charging alongside the Monster. At this moment, he was violently slammed into the ground by the dragon breath, his fate unknown.
Leiser Life Points: 4000 → 0
As Kaito defeated the opponent's leader, the Resistance Army's morale was greatly boosted, forcing the opponent to retreat step by step. Moreover, due to the Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon Emperor's dragon breath just now, over half of the opponent's reinforcement troops suffered casualties, and the Obelisk Force, usually unstoppable, had to temporarily withdraw.
"Who's next?" Kaito, clad in white, coldly watched the stagnant Obelisk Force and said.
The Dog Walking Group, having lost their commander, exchanged glances, then all collectively took a step back, fearing they would be the next to follow in Leiser's footsteps if they were too slow.
This Battlefield fell into an eerie silence for a moment. The Resistance Army also got a moment to catch their breath, while Kaito simply sat cross-legged in the middle of the road. The situation fell into a stalemate.
On the other side.
Sugihara Yo's battle with his opponent had also begun.
"My Turn!" Sugihara Yo took the First Turn.
"I Attack Position Summon 'Cutter Shark'! Cutter Shark's Effect Activation!"
"Target 1 WATER Attribute Monster you control; Special Summon (Defense Position) 1 Fish-Type Monster with a different name from that monster, but the same Level, from your Deck."
"Targeting Cutter Shark itself, I Special Summon (Defense Position) 'Silent Angler', a Level 4 Fish-Type Monster, from my Deck!"
"I Overlay two Level 4 Monsters! Roar, unknown thunder! Emerge from the darkness of the Abyss! Xyz Summon! Rank 4! Bahamut Shark!"
From a light blue vortex, a shark-headed merman with dragon wings on its back leapt out and shielded Sugihara Yo.
Bahamut Shark Attack Points: 2600
"Bahamut Shark's Effect Activation! Once per turn: You can detach 1 Overlay Material from this card; Special Summon 1 WATER Attribute Xyz Monster of Rank 3 or lower from your Extra Deck. This card cannot Attack this turn."
"Appear! Rank 2! Toadally Awesome!"
A blue orb revolving around Bahamut Shark landed beside it and transformed into a pure white, adorable little frog.
Toadally Awesome Attack Points: 2200
"Continuous Spell, 'White Salvage' Activate!"
"Continuous Spell, White Salvage's Effect: Once per turn: You can Target 1 Fish-Type Monster in your Graveyard; add that Monster to your Hand."
"I add 'Silent Angler' from my Graveyard to my Hand."
"'Silent Angler' can be Special Summoned from your Hand if a WATER Attribute Monster exists on your Field!"
Silent Angler DEF: 1400
"I Set three Cards. Turn End." Having done this, Sugihara Yo looked at his opponent, a person completely shrouded in a black cloak. He felt as if he had seen this person somewhere before.
"A Duelist who battles with a Stall Beatdown Tactic?" From beneath the cloak, a husky female voice rang out. "Familiar Strategy. You're truly identical to that old geezer."
The cloaked woman's words made Sugihara Yo's pupils constrict. Due to being possessed by Orphion, fragmented memories slowly pieced themselves together in his mind.
That day, at the Four Major Academies exchange meeting held at Starlight Amusement Park, because Saionji Ryo insisted on eating ice cream from the amusement area, Sugihara Yo couldn't refuse her and had to go out to buy it for her.
But before Sugihara Yo could return, the invaders descended from the sky. Moreover, on his way back to the Theater in the center of the park, Sugihara Yo was entangled by an Obelisk Force squad.
After he dealt with that squad, when he desperately rushed back to the Theater, everything was already too late. The last message Liang sent him before her death was the image of Diamond Academy's Old Principal being turned into cards after losing a duel. And the opponent was precisely the cloaked woman before him.
"You killed the Principal and Liang?" Sugihara Yo gritted his teeth and growled, his expression ferocious, just like a beast.
"Not just them. Almost all of your so-called Diamond Academy Elites were wiped out by me alone." The woman in the black robe removed her cloak's hood, revealing a head of white hair and a mature, alluring face. She licked her lips. "Especially that red-haired girl, her screams were truly delightful."
"You fiend..." Sugihara Yo clenched his fists tightly, his whole body trembling uncontrollably.
"But it's a pity I couldn't find you that day, which left a blemish on my perfect record, Pamela the Shaddoll Rose. However, it's not too late to finish you off now," Pamela said, licking her lips.
Pamela's words struck Sugihara Yo's mind one by one. Just as Yo was about to lose his composure, the Matching Rings on his right ring finger and pinky finger flashed with a faint blue light, enveloping Sugihara Yo.
A cool sensation surged into Yo's mind, allowing him to calm down.
"Huu... huu..." A calm Sugihara Yo gasped for breath, looking down at the Matching Rings on his right hand, and muttered, "Thank you, Yūga Hōzumi."
He knew very well what the consequences would be if he couldn't remain calm in a top-tier duel like this.
After his breathing steadied, Sugihara Yo looked up and stared intently at the opponent, gritting his teeth and saying word by word, "Thank you for telling me all this. Otherwise, I wouldn't even know who to seek revenge from."
"Revenge? With just you?" Pamela sneered. "I'll send you to reunite with them shortly. My Turn! Draw!"
"Spell Card, 'Shaddoll Fusion' Activate!"
