Chapter 328

"Judai! Look behind the academy!"

Upon hearing Asuka's reminder, the others quickly looked out the window, where seven stone pillars suddenly rose from the distant desert.

"Isn't that the place where the Wicked God were sealed away before?"

Judai then suddenly remembered, "But weren't the Wicked God there already destroyed?"

Has anyone gone there?

"Could it be that evil thing playing tricks?"

Manjoume looked at Judai: "What should we do? Should we go to that sealed place first, or...?"

Before Judai could answer, John stepped forward and said, "Judai, you can go over there without worry. I'll go with the others to Misawa to receive the cards."

Jim: "Go ahead and don't worry."

O'Brien: "We will protect him."

Judai nodded firmly. "Okay, then I'll leave the rest to you!"

After saying that, he hurried out of the school.

Not long after, Judai arrived at the place where the Wicked God were sealed.

A crack is opening in the ground within the area surrounded by the seven stone pillars, connecting it to the underground.

At the same time, two figures, one tall and one short, were standing at the edge of the crack.

"Amon? And... what about Malden, whom Li mentioned yesterday who's missing? What are you doing here?"

Judai watched the two men warily; their presence in this place at this time was clearly unusual.

Upon seeing Judai's arrival, 'Malden' immediately displayed an infatuated yet frenzied expression.

Judai also saw a demonic claw peeking out from under 'Malden's' black robe. "That hand... could it be from back then...?"

"You've come, Judai, but it's too late..."

Before Judai could react, 'Malden' immediately jumped into the crevice.

"Wait! Are you going to run away again?"

However, just as Judai was about to give chase, Amon, who was waiting nearby, blocked Judai way.

"I won't let you disturb Him, Judai!"

"Amon?" Judai questioned him, "What do you mean? Why are you blocking my way?"

"For certain reasons, I accepted His invitation and joined His cause. For the sake of His plans, I will not let you pass."

Amon spoke, he revealed the Duel Disk on his left hand, "If you want me to step aside, you'd better defeat me first!"

"Ammon Gallum, so you're in cahoots with Him too... But do you know He's the culprit who brought us to this strange world? If we can catch Him, perhaps we can return to our original world."

Amon's eyes, hidden behind his glasses, calmly stared at Judai. "Yes, I know that all too well, but it doesn't matter. I'll defeat you!"

"Tch, are you really going to stop me no matter what?" Judai raised his Duel Disk with a disgruntled look. "I don't have time to play around with you, I'll finish you off quickly!"

The Duel Disk of the two quickly unfolded.

"Duel!!" ×2

[Yusei Fudo: LP4000]

[Ammon Gallum: LP4000]

Chapter 228 VS Cloudian

After the duel began, Amon made the first move.

"My turn, draw a card!"

[Ammon Gallum's hand cards: 5→6]

Amon knew very well that Judai was a formidable opponent far beyond his imagination.

Therefore, he was extremely careful, scanning his hand several times before cautiously playing a card.

"First, activate the Continuous Spell [Summon Cloud] from your hand."

As he placed the card into the Duel Disk's Spell & Trap Zone, a dark cloud appeared behind him, with a faint light cascading down from it.

"This card's effect is: Once per turn, when you control no monsters, you can Special Summon 1 Level 4 or lower monster with 'Cloudian' in its name from your hand or Graveyard."

"Using this effect, I Special Summon [Cloudian - Sheep Cloud] from my hand!"

Buzz!

A golden light flashed across the field, and a white cloud was projected onto the screen.

[Cloudian - Sheep Cloud: Attack Power 0]

[Ammon Gallum's hand: 6 → 4]

Judai frowned upon seeing this. "Cloudian deck... Most of its monsters have the characteristic of not being destroyed in battle. Are you planning to stall for time?"

When faced with Judai's question, Amon did not respond directly, but instead drew his third card and placed it on the Duel Disk.

"Next, I will sacrifice the sheep cloud on the field to summon [Cloudian - Rain Cloud Man] in Attack Position!"

Immediately, the white cloud disappeared from the field, and then a human-shaped rain cloud appeared.

[Cloudian - Rain Cloud Man: Attack Power 1000]

[Ammon Gallum's hand: 4 → 3]

"This card can be Summoned by Tributing any number of WATER monsters you control, and you place that number of Fog Counters on this card. For each Fog Counter on the field, Raincloud Man gains 500 ATK."

"Of course, I only used one water-type monster as a sacrifice, so I only placed one fog marker."

[Cloudian - Rain Cloud Man: Attack Power 1000 → 1500, Fog Indicator 0 → 1]

Although it only increased attack power by 500 points, Judai knew that Amon couldn't stop there.

As expected...

He then revealed his second Spell Card: "Activate Spell Card, [Cloudian's Cloud Core]!"

You can discard 1 [Cloudian] monster from your hand, then target 1 face-up monster on the field to activate this effect. Place Fog Counters equal to the target monster's Level.

"I discarded [Cloudian - Ghost Mist] and placed five Mist Indicators equal to the number of my own level on [Cloudian - Rain Cloud Man], which will increase its attack power by another 2500 points."

[Cloudian - Rain Cloud Man: Attack Power 1500 → 4000, Fog Counter 1 → 6]

After finishing, he immediately placed his last card in the back row. "Face one more card, end of turn."

[Ammon Gallum's hand: 3 → 0]

After Amon decisively used up all his cards and declared the game over, the control of the game shifted to Judai.

"My turn, draw a card!"

[Yusei Fudo's card pack: 5→6]

Unlike Judai, Amon knows exactly how to play his cards as soon as he gets his hand.

Without hesitation, he slammed a card onto the Duel Disk, "I summon [Elemental HERO Flame Man] in Attack Position!"

Buzz!

A flash of golden light, and a warrior engulfed in flames appeared on his field, wielding a fiery fist.

[Elemental HERO Flame Man - Attack Power 1200]

"When this card is successfully Normal or Special Summoned, add one [Polymerization] card from your Deck to your hand."

He quickly took a card from his deck and then threw it out along with another card from his hand.

"I Polymerization the Spell Card [Polymerization] from my hand to fuse [Destiny HERO - Disk Guy] in my hand with [Elemental HERO Flame Man] on the field, two HERO monsters with different attributes."

Judai immediately waved his hand and shouted, "Fusion Summon! Appear, [Elemental HERO Sunrise]!"

In an instant, the two heroes from different classes were swallowed by the Polymerization vortex, releasing a dazzling flash. A crimson warrior with a cloak billowing behind him descended through the light and stood before him.

[Elemental HERO Sunrise: Attack Power 2500]

[Yusei Fudo's card pack: 6 → 4]

"Is it coming? Your most celebrated Polymerization tactic...!"

Amon only had one card, so he dared not be careless in the slightest.

Judai then pointed to the warrior beside him and said, "Sunrise Warrior's special effect: for each attribute on your field, all monsters on your field gain 200 ATK."

[Elemental HERO Sunrise: Attack Power 2500 → 2700]

"And when this card is successfully Special Summoned, add one [Miracle Fusion] card from your Deck to your hand."

[Yusei Fudo's card pack: 4→5]

After obtaining the card, he didn't rush to use it. Instead, he first drew another card from his hand and played it.

"I activate the Spell Card [Monster Reborn] from my hand, and Special Summon a monster from my Graveyard."

"Awaken, [Destiny HERO - Disk Guy]!"

The next moment, a beam of white light shot out from the entrance of the Judai Duel Disk graveyard, and a warrior with discs floating on his body leaped out of the light and landed in front of him in a defensive stance.

[Destiny HERO - Disk Guy: Defense 300]

"At this moment, when the Disk Guy is successfully Special Summoned from the Graveyard, draw two cards from your Deck."

[Yusei Fudo's card pack: 5→6]

After replenishing his hand, he still didn't use the card he had just retrieved. Instead, he revealed the other Spell Card: "I activate the Spell Card [Neo-Fusion] from my hand!"

[Yusei Fudo's card pack: 6 → 5]

"Send [Elemental HERO Neos] and [Neo-Spacian Dark Panther] from your deck to the Graveyard, and Special Summon [Elemental HERO Dark Neos], ignoring its Summoning conditions!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a rainbow-colored radiance shot into the sky, and a jet-black Ultraman with sharp claws on his limbs and a pair of demonic wings on his back appeared from the light.

"Due to the increased number of attributes on their field, Sunrise Knight and Dark Neos's attack power has increased."

[Elemental HERO Sunrise: Attack Power 2700 → 2900]

[Elemental HERO Dark Neos: Attack Power 2500 → 2900]

"After [Neo-Fusion] is activated, I cannot Special Summon any more monsters until the end of this turn, but that should be enough..."

However, at that moment, Amon pressed the card-covering button without hesitation, "Since that's the case, I'll open the card now!"

The only face-down card at his feet instantly flipped open. "Activate Trap Card, [Torrential Tribute]!"

Chapter 229 Eye of the Typhoon

"The effect of the Trap Card [Torrential Tribute] is to target one of your [Cloudian] monsters and reduce its ATK to determine the effect."

"When a monster's ATK drops by 1000, it can destroy one Spell/ Trap Card on its opponent's field; when a monster's ATK reaches 2000, it can destroy any two cards on its opponent's field."

After explaining the effect, Amon pointed to the humanoid cloud in front of him and said, "The Rain Cloud Man's attack power is reduced by 2000 points, destroying your Sunrise Knight and Dark Neos!"

[Cloudian - Rain Cloud Man: Attack Power 4000 → 2000]

As soon as he finished speaking, Rain Cloud Man disintegrated into a dark cloud, drifted over the field of Judai, and created a fierce tornado that struck the two superior heroes.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh...!!

In the blink of an eye, Sunrise Knight was shredded to pieces by the Mystical Space Typhoon.

"At this moment!" Judai raised his Duel Disk, and a card popped out of the Graveyard: "When Fusion Monster on your field that used [Elemental HERO Neos] as Polymerization Material is destroyed or returned to the Extra Deck by its own effect, you can banish [Neo-Fusion] from the Graveyard to replace it, thus negating the destruction of Dark Neos."

As the tornado dissipated, Dark Neos reappeared before Amon's eyes.

"Couldn't they have defeated this monster..." Amon clicked his tongue inwardly, then said, "However, since Sunrise Warrior left the field, Dark Neos's attack power returned to normal."

[Elemental HERO Dark Neos: Attack Power 2900 → 2500]

"Furthermore, Raincloud Man cannot be destroyed by battle, and since you no longer have [Neo-Fusion] in your graveyard, Dark Neos will return to the deck during the End Phase, which is advantageous to me."

"That's not necessarily true!"

"What?"

Judai pointed to the black Ultraman standing to the side and explained, "Dark Neos's monster effect is activated!"
