"What a pity." Kira chuckled. "If you had destroyed my materials before I performed the Synchro Summon, I probably wouldn't have been able to gather the materials for Brionac, Dragon of the Ice Barrier again."
Nor would I have been able to dodge the Giant Bomber Air Raid's effect with Synchron Return.
You misjudged the situation, Bommer. That made the Giant Bomber Air Raid's effect this turn completely meaningless."
Bommer gritted his teeth. "You damned bastard, Godwin."
Outside the field, Yusei said gravely, "Even so, given the situation just now, without knowing that Godwin had Set Synchron Return in his Back Row, the most likely choice for Bommer was indeed to wait until Godwin performed a Synchro Summon before using the bomber's effect.
And while Godwin's earlier Taunt had seemed like an attempt to bait Bommer into impulsively using the bomber's effect early, it now seemed that Godwin might have used that Taunt to make Bommer think that was his intention.
He had anticipated that Bommer, being cautious, would instead hold back the bomber's effect and save it for the Synchro Summon."
As the saying went, what seemed real was false, and what seemed false was real. Bommer thought he had seen through the opponent's Taunt from the third layer, never realizing that even his belief that he had seen through it had been anticipated.
Judging purely by the result, using the Giant Bomber Air Raid's effect before the Synchro Summon would actually have been more worthwhile. If Godwin had not had another Level 4 Monster in hand, it would have truly prevented Brionac, Dragon of the Ice Barrier from appearing.
Jack said blandly, "It isn't just the Duel. That Duelist called Bommer has had even his thoughts completely seen through by Godwin. He has been played in the palm
