The heavens and earth seemed to change color in an instant as pitch-black energy shot into the sky. Ancient power awakened deep within the earth's crust, and a gigantic hand burst from the ground.
A massive fissure split open across the ground as an enormous figure slowly rose from beneath the earth. Its skin resembled bronze, every muscle like metal forged through countless hammerings. The giant's body swayed unsteadily, as though it were still asleep.
The giant seemed almost large enough to blot out the sky. Its boundless shadow covered the arena, and every step seemed to make the earth tremble. Its eyes slowly opened, revealing golden pupils that seemed to reflect the entire Duel Arena Venue.
Slumbering Giant Goo-Don, summoned!
"Y-Y-Y-You really summoned it!"
Lua was practically incoherent.
Even Glasses Honor Student was so shocked he could not speak for a long while. Only after quite some time did he mutter, "G-Goo-Don... the real Goo-Don..."
It was not some Rare Card, but a monster known to everyone in this era and dimension. Almost everyone had seen what it looked like, though usually not in an official duel. They had only seen its summoning effects and animation through the Stereoscopic Projection System.
Almost no one had not fantasized about truly summoning this monster in a duel and using it to sweep through everything.
Of course, everyone who had fantasized about it also clearly understood how unrealistic that fantasy was.

Goo-Don was widely acknowledged as something that was almost impossible to summon. Its power made many people feel that successfully summoning it was equivalent to winning the duel itself, but its absurdly demanding design practically screamed that it did not want to be summoned at all.
A Level One Normal Monster had to remain On the Field
