Chapter 108
"My turn!"
[Kajiki Ryota's hand cards: 3→4]
Looking at the cards in his hand, Kajiki Ryota sorted out his thoughts and then inserted a card into the Duel Disk.
"First, I activate the Spell Card [Monster Reborn] from my hand, and then Special Summon [Sea Dragon God] from my Graveyard."
After a flash of light, Leviathan reappeared before him.
[Sea Dragon God - Leviathan: Attack Power 2000]
[Kajiki Ryota's hand cards: 4 → 3]
"And once again activate the special effect of [Sea Dragon God - Leviathan], adding [Diving Strike II] from the deck to your hand."
Kajiki immediately played the card that had been added to his hand.
"Since you sealed my Field Spell, I'll use this card as a substitute."
"Continuous Spell [Diving Strike II] activated: This card's name is treated as [Sea] while it is on the field or in the Graveyard, and your WATER monsters cannot be targeted by your opponent's monster effects other than WATER!"
As the card was activated, a surge of churning seawater suddenly appeared beneath their feet.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh--!!!
The two monsters on Kajikiba immediately dived into the sea.
"Experience the terror of the ocean once again, Yugi!"
As he spoke, he picked up another card from his hand and played it, "I'll activate the Spell Card [Fish Finder] from my hand again."
Add 1 Level 7 or lower monster with the [Sea] title or a WATER Normal Monster from your Deck to your hand. If there is a [Sea] monster on the field, you can Special Summon 1 WATER Normal Monster from your Deck.
"I add [Deathsquid] to my hand from my deck and Special Summon [Half-Fish Beast]."
As soon as he finished speaking, a light suddenly shone from the seabed, and a green fish-man covered in fins poked his head out of the water before diving back into the sea.
[Half-Fish Beast: Attack Power 2400]
Kajiki chuckled, then continued, "It's not over yet. I'll activate the [Deathsquid]'s special effect again!"
If [Sea] is on the field, you can target 1 WATER monster you control (other than [Deathsquid]) and 1 monster your opponent controls to activate this effect. Special Summon this card from your hand, return the targeted monster to its owner's hand, and destroy the targeted opponent's monster. This effect can also be activated during your opponent's turn.
"My chosen targets are, of course, [Electric Jellyfish] and [Gaia the Dragon Champion]."
However, at that very moment, Yugi immediately picked up a card from his hand and shouted, "At this instant, I activate the monster effect of [Dark Magician Knight Gaia] from my hand!"
You can activate this effect by Tributing 1 Dragon- Fusion Monster you control. Special Summon this card from your hand. This effect can also be activated during your opponent's turn.
"I offer [Gaia the Dragon Champion] as a sacrifice!"
The moment he finished speaking, the dragon knight vanished from sight.
Seeing this, Kajiki's smile widened even more. "Hey, this is the moment I've been waiting for! I'll activate the other ability of [Electric Jellyfish] now!"
This effect can be activated when [Sea] is on the field and your opponent activates a Spell/Monster effect. Negate that effect. After that, this card gains 600 ATK and DEF.
[Electric Jellyfish: Attack 1400→2000, Defense 1700→2300]
"I expected this..."
The Yugi player calmly placed the card back into his left hand.
Then, a slight smile played on his lips as he chuckled, "But that's also my purpose."
As he spoke, he immediately tapped the face-down card, "Chain activation of the Trap Card [Spiral Rebirth]!"
You can activate this effect by targeting 1 Level 7 or lower Dragon-Type monster in your Graveyard; Special Summon that monster. If this effect Special Summons [Dragon Knight Gaia], that monster cannot be targeted by your opponent's card effects or destroyed by their card effects.
"What did you say!?"
Kajiki's face immediately froze.
"Rise, [Gaia, the Gaia the Dragon Champion]!"
As the Yugi's audio faded, the Dragon Knight reappeared above the sea.
[Gaia the Dragon Champion: Attack Power 2600]
Unable to be targeted by effects, and unable to be destroyed by effects, coupled with the field effect of invincibility during battle rank, Kajiki is completely immobilized when a Dragon Knight is present.
"This situation is really troublesome... but it would be too boring if we didn't do it this way."
So he continued his chain, "Then, because of the effect of [Deathsquid], I will Special Summon myself to the field."
"Then, return the [Electric Jellyfish] in your hand and summon it again in Defense Position."
Two more beams of light flashed across the seabed.
[Deathsquid: Defense 1600]
[Electric Jellyfish: Defense 1700]
[Kajiki Ryota's hand cards: 3 → 2]
"That concludes my turn."
Since he had no way to attack, he simply ended his turn.
The Yugi then draws a card from the deck.
"My turn, draw a card!"
[Yugi Muto's hand cards: 3→4]
After glancing at it, he ignored the card.
His gaze shifted to the field, and he said, "I activate the effect of the Field Spell [Gaia the Force Breaker] once more, revealing [Dark Magician Knight Gaia] in my hand, and selecting a Level 5 Dragon monster from my Deck."
Just then, Kajiki shouted, "Don't even think about it! I'll activate the monster effect of [Electric Jellyfish] again, negating the effect of Spell Card!"
[Electric Jellyfish: Attack 1400→2000, Defense 1700→2300]
"And the effect of the Continuous Trap [Submarine Ambush] is activated!"
Listening to Kajiki's words, Yugi briefly recalled the effect of this card.
If [Sea] is on the field, this face-up card gains the following effect.
●Once per turn, you can banish 1 face-up WATER monster you control until the End Phase. During this turn, face-up Spell/ Trap Card you control cannot be destroyed by your opponent's card effects.
●Activate at the start of the Damage Step when your own WATER monster (originally Level 5 or higher) battles an opponent's monster. Destroy that opponent's monster.
"Only the first effect can be activated, so is he trying to save Leviathan?"
As Yugi was thinking this, he saw his opponent take a card from the Duel Disk.
"I banish the WATER monster [Sea Dragon Leviathan]. This turn, my Spell Card and Trap Card cannot be destroyed by my opponent's card effects."
Not yet, Kajiki opened another face-down card and continued, "And if [Sea] is on the field, activate this Continuous Trap [Tornado Sea Wall]!"
"As long as [Hai] is on the field, all combat damage I receive will be reduced to zero!"
Chapter 151 The Legendary Fisherman
"Kajiki is still so strong."
Looking at the other party's chain of moves, King couldn't help but sigh.
Yugi nodded slightly. "Indeed, but that way, without Leviathan, I can temporarily summon a second monster."
So he pressed the button on the Duel Disk, "Open the face-down card, activate the Trap Card [Heaven and Earth Creation]!"
Reveal three or more Warrior-type monsters from your Deck, including one or more [Chaos Warrior] or [Dark Magician Knight Gaia] monsters. Your opponent then randomly selects one of those monsters. If it is a [Chaos Warrior] or [Dark Magician Knight Gaia] monster, add that monster to your hand and send the rest of your cards to the Graveyard. If it is not, send the revealed card to your opponent to the Graveyard.
"I've chosen these three cards."
Before Kajiki Ryota's eyes, the images of the three cards he was holding in the Yugi appeared.
--[Chaos Warrior - Messenger of the Black Luster Soldier - Envoy of the Beginning -],[Gravekeeper's Guard],[Gravekeeper's Guard].
"What's going on? Two of them aren't [Chaos Warrior] monsters or [Dark Magician Knight Gaia] monsters, so the probability of being selected is only one-third?"
In Kajiki's opinion, the odds are so low that it's better not to gamble at all. Do you think you're Jonouchi?
The Yugi developer shrugged indifferently; he certainly had his own reasons.
Soon, Kajiki randomly picked one of the shuffled cards with a puzzled look.
After seeing which card was chosen, the Yugi automatically sent all three cards to the graveyard. "The chosen card is [Gravekeeper's Guard], therefore all three cards are sent to the graveyard."
However, at that moment, he changed the subject, "But I activated the effect of the Trap Card [Reborn Super Warrior] from the Graveyard."
During your Main Phase, you can banish this card from your Graveyard, then target 1 [Chaos Warrior] monster in your Graveyard; add that card to your hand.
"The card that returned to my hand was, of course, [Chaos Warrior - Black Luster Soldier - Envoy of the Beginning -]."
[Yugi Muto's hand cards: 4→5]
"What?! You can do that?!"
Kajiki was immediately shocked.
From the beginning, the Yugi wasn't going to rely on luck. When he used the effect of [Spiral Spear Strike] to discard cards, he threw this Trap Card into the graveyard to match with a face-down card.
He has a 100% chance of getting the card he wants, and he also ends up with two extra cards in the graveyard.
"It's not over yet. At the cost of one Light Attribute and Dark Attribute Monster from my Graveyard, Special Summon this card."
"Come, [Chaos Warrior - Black Luster Soldier - Envoy of the Beginning]!"
As Yugi slammed the card onto the Duel Disk, the Great Opening traversed the chaos and arrived before Yugi.
[Chaos Warrior - Black Luster Soldier - Envoy of the Beginning -: Attack Power 3000]
[Yugi Muto's hand cards: 5 → 4]
"Because of the effect of the Continuous Spell [Diving Strike II], my monster cannot target your Water-type monster, therefore..."
The Yugi immediately enters the combat phase.
"Battle has begun! [Gaia the Dragon Champion] attacks [Half-Fish Beast], Spiral Spear Strike!"
The Half-Fish Beast emerged from the seabed, and Gaia immediately rode her dragon forward, piercing it with a single spear thrust.
Bang--!
"Wow, you're really something, Yugi! But thanks to the effect of the Continuous Trap [Tornado Sea Wall], I'm not taking any damage!"
"And can you find the other two monsters hiding in the sea?"
Kajiki attempted to mislead the Yugi with empty promises.
But the Yugi won't fool you.
Yugi: Don't try to fool me!
"It's useless, [Chaos Warrior - Black Luster Soldier - Envoy of the Beginning] has the effect of multiple attacks!"
This card can only be activated when its attack destroys an opponent's monster. This card can only attack once more.
"What did you say!?"
"Although I can't find those monsters, it will be enough if the Chaos Warrior attack the entire sea."
Yugi immediately swung his right arm and shouted, "Go! [Chaos Warrior - Black Luster Soldier - Envoy of the Beginning- ], attack [Electric Jellyfish] and [Deathsquid], unleash the Opening Dance Slash!"
A massive blade of sword energy shot out into the sea.
Bang! Bang!
Two muffled popping sounds came from the sea.
This means that the remaining two aquatic creatures have been punctured.
Kajiki's frontcourt was cleared in an instant.
"That concludes my combat phase."
Immediately after, Yugi played a card from his hand, "Then I activated the Spell Card [Super Rejuvenation] from my hand, sacrificing [Chaos Warrior - Black Luster Soldier - Envoy of the Beginning- ] as a tribute, and then drew two cards from my deck."
Since the Yugi requires sending a monster to the graveyard after Leviathan returns, he might as well make use of it.
"Degeneration!"
