Chapter 330

Amon: "Tsk! It's already out of control...?"

"The final blow!" Judai shouted, flicking his hand. "Chaos Neos attacks the player directly! Dark Neo-Spacian Fury!"

Under his command, Dark Neos slashed at Amon with another claw, instantly depleting his health.

"Hmph!!"

[Ammon Gallum: LP1500→0]

Chapter 231 Accepting the Challenge

As the duel ended, the Death Bracelet on Amon's wrist instantly drained the energy from his body, causing him to collapse weakly before Judai.

"Is there nothing I can do to stop you? What a pity... But it's probably too late for you to get there now..."

The Judai was well aware of this, but how could he miss this opportunity when he had finally met Him?

So he ignored Amon's words and rushed into the underground.

On the other side, a hundred meters underground where Judai and Amon were fighting.

Malden, clutching three cards in his hand, sneered in the dim space, "Finally, I've obtained these three cards. Although they only contain the residual power of the Wicked God's Grudge, enough for me to use once, it's sufficient. Perfect for settling things with Judai, so that you will forever remain mine."

Then He vanished in a flash, and naturally, when Judai arrived, He was nowhere to be found.

"Damn it! That slippery thing..."

Left with no other choice, Judai had to turn back and rush back to the Duel Academy.

As soon as Judai emerged from the ground, he saw a beam of light descend from the sky in the distance, which quickly disappeared, while a shooting star flew away to one side.

"John and his team seem to have succeeded..."

So he quickened his pace and returned to the Teaching Building.

Not long after, Judai and John ran into each other on the Tennis Court in the Teaching Building.

Judai quickly asked, "How is the situation, everyone?"

Misawa stepped forward and explained, "John fought a duel with Kaiser from the Real World. After unleashing enough energy, he briefly opened a portal, and the Doctor took the opportunity to teleport the Rainbow Dragon card over. Now we need to go to where the card fell to find it."

John exclaimed excitedly, "I'm finally getting my hands on the Rainbow Dragon! I'm so thrilled!"

Judai nodded upon hearing this, "Then there's no time to lose..."

"Yusei Fudo!"

Just then, the college's loudspeakers suddenly came on.

"That voice is!"

Judai immediately thought of that short figure from before.

At that moment, 'Malden' was sitting in the Announcing Room, microphone in hand, announcing, "Announcement for Yusei Fudo!"

The voice echoed through the corridors and every corner of the academy, "I know you're listening. Let's settle this, Judai."

"If I win, you will become my servants forever; but if you win, I will spare you. The Duel Arena within thirty minutes, I will wipe out all the students hiding in the Duel Academy!"

Malden's expression instantly turned incredibly ferocious, and he crushed the microphone.

"To wipe them all out...?"

"Judai, are you going?"

Judai frowned. "Hmm, the fact that He dared to challenge me directly this time means He has probably obtained the power of the Wicked God."

"Three Phantom Demons?" Asuka asked doubtfully, "Haven't the original three cards been destroyed by you?"

Judai shook his head and replied, "They weren't completely destroyed. I heard from Teacher Daidouji that the Wicked God still harbor resentment. If it's triggered, those three cards can still unleash tremendous power."

"If we ignore this, it could endanger everyone's lives, so I have to go and settle things with Him!"

"Wait!" Misawa seemed to have thought of something. "Dr. Frankenstein just told me that to awaken the Rainbow Dragon's power, it needs to absorb a huge amount of energy."

Upon hearing this, Judai realized what the other person wanted to say, "Misawa, could it be that you intend to...?"

Misawa nodded and replied, "Yes, just as you thought. Perhaps the collision of the powers of the Wicked God and the Rainbow Dragon will generate the power to fully awaken the Rainbow Dragon."

"I understand now." John looked at Judai. "Judai, I'm going to find the Rainbow Dragon card right away. Wait for me, I'll be back."

"John, I understand. I'll stall until you get back."

O'Brien: "Then the task of protecting John is mine."

"Okay, then I'll leave John to you from now on. Let's split up and get started."

It's a pity that Judai didn't have the Wicked God with him, otherwise it wouldn't have been so troublesome.

Once the decision was made, both groups immediately took action.

"Is that the Duel Arena?"

When did that thing come about?

Not far from the Duel Academy's Teaching Building, an altar had appeared out of nowhere.

Without much hesitation, Judai and the others quickly climbed onto the altar.

"Judai ..." The moment 'Malden' saw Judai, a look of long-awaited joy spread across his face. "I've finally waited for you..."

After standing on the altar, Judai looked at the enemy opposite him. "As agreed, I came to Malden... No, I should say you are not Malden. Who exactly are you who possessed him? Weren't you the one controlling Cobra before?"

"Yes, that's exactly it." 'Malden' held up the mutated arm to show Judai, and at the same time, his voice changed to that of the alien figure from that time. "That man certainly put in a lot of work to revive this left hand."

"What is your purpose? And why did you bring us into this world?"

"That's because I want to repay the love you once gave me, Judai!"

"Love? What are you talking about?" The person opposite him was expressing love to him using a boy's body; it just didn't feel right.

"Hehehe, how outrageous, Judai." 'Malden' said, his voice then strangely transformed into that of an adult male. "You actually forgot me? But it doesn't matter. Through this duel, I'll soon make you remember me, my past, and how you knew me... This time, I'll do the same thing for you."

"Judai, I love you, more than anyone else in the world..."

"This is incomprehensible!"

Since that's the case, Judai had no choice but to reveal his Duel Disk: "I don't know what you're trying to say, but if I defeat you, all the questions, including your identity, will be answered, right?"

"Heh heh heh, just as you said. It's about to happen, Judai..."

Judai deployed the Duel Disk, and at the same time, Malden's demonic left arm suddenly transformed and grew a wing-like Duel Disk.

"Duel!!" ×2

Chapter 232 The Awakened Wicked Gods, The Glorious Neo-HERO

After the duel began, 'Malden' took the initiative to make his move.

"My turn, draw a card!"

['Malden' hand cards: 5→6]

After scanning his hand, 'Malden' quickly played his first card.

"First, I summon [Darkness Summoning God] in Defense Position!"

Roar!

With a roar, a demonic dragon possessing the red, yellow, and blue colors of the Wicked God Demons appeared on the field.

[Darkness Summoning God: Defense 0]

"When this card is successfully summoned, you can add one card from your deck to your hand, except for [Sacred Fire Emperor Uria], [Hamon Lord of the Heavenly Prison], [Raphiel, Soul of the Wicked God], or [Darkness Summoning God] which lists any of these card names."

"Using this effect, I add [Chaos Summoned God] to my hand."

Swish!

After retrieving the card into his hand, 'Malden' explained, "While [Darkness Summoning God] is on the field, you may summon one more Fiend -Fiend-type monster from your hand, except for one Normal Summon."

"I am summoning the [Chaos Summoned God]!"

Buzz!

Amidst the flickering, deep purple light, a pitch-black demon with a withered, slender upper body and a dragon's tail suddenly appeared.

[Chaos Summoned God: Defense 0]

As the monster appeared, 'Malden' grinned and revealed a card from his hand. "I can offer this monster as a tribute to Special Summon any one of the Wicked God from my hand, ignoring the Summoning conditions."

"Appear, [Hamon Lord of the Heavenly Prison]!"

Rumble!

The once clear green sky was suddenly covered with dark clouds, and the rumble of thunder echoed across the desert. An exceptionally thick bolt of lightning struck down from the clouds, and a colossal figure nearly a hundred meters tall descended onto the field. A massive, dark-gold demon composed entirely of bones appeared before everyone's eyes, its overwhelming demonic power sweeping across the entire area.

[Hamon Lord of the Heavenly Prison: Defense 4000]

['Malden' hand cards: 6→4]

Everyone was shocked by what they saw.

Asuka said with a solemn expression, "You summoned the first Phantom Demon so easily..."

Manjoume: "This is bad. That guy's strength is on a completely different level from Kagemaru's."

Jim: "Unbelievable! Judai is going to face such a terrifying opponent?"

Misawa: "This is troublesome!"

Faced with the arrival of the Phantom Demon, 'Malden' was far less fanatical than Kagemaru had been, so his actions were not wasteful at all. "I activate the other effect of [Chaos Summoned God] from my graveyard, banish this card from my graveyard, and add one [Paradise Lost] from my deck to my hand."

"Then, I'm going to activate this Field Spell directly—[Paradise Lost]!"

Swish!

As the card was placed on the field, the surrounding environment was quickly enveloped in darkness, transforming into a desolate land that rejected the living.

"[Paradise Lost] effect activated: While you control a Phantom Demon, you can draw two cards from your Deck."

['Malden' hand cards: 4 → 6]

'Malden' glanced at his hand, sneered, and picked out two cards to place in the Spell & Trap Zone, burying two cards in the back row.

"Finally, set two cards face down. End of turn."

['Malden' hand cards: 6→4]

Now, it's finally the Judai's turn to operate.

"My turn, draw a card!"

[Yusei Fudo's card pack: 5→6]

As Judai Kazuku scanned his hand, he considered for a moment, 'Since we're waiting for John 2, we can't let the 9 defeat the 0 so quickly...'

After thinking for a moment, he played his first Spell Card: "I activate the Spell Card [Transmigration Contact] from my hand!"

"When you have no monsters on your field, send one [Neo-Spacian] monster from your hand and one from your deck to the Graveyard, and draw two cards from your deck."

"I send [Neo-Spacian Dark Panther] from my hand and [Neo-Spacian Flame Scarab] from my deck to the graveyard, and draw two cards!"

After exchanging two cards, Judai then played another card. "Activate the Spell Card [Contact Gate], banish two [Neo-Spacian] monsters with different names from my Graveyard, and Special Summon two more [Neo-Spacian] monsters from my hand, Deck, and Graveyard."

[Yusei Fudo's card pack: 6 → 5]

'Malden' quickly flicked his right hand, and a face-down card on his right opened. "Before that, activate the Continuous Trap, [Awakened Wicked Gods]!"

Gain the following effects based on the number of [Sacred Fire Emperor Uria], [Hamon Lord of the Heavenly Prison], and [Raphiel, Soul of the Wicked God] on your field.

● 1 or more types: Each time your opponent successfully Normal or Special Summons a monster, you gain Life Points equal to the ATK of that monster.

● 2 or more types: Negate the effects activated by monsters on your opponent's field.

●3 types: Monsters sent to the opponent's graveyard are excluded if they do not go to the graveyard.

"I only have one [Hamon Lord of the Heavenly Prison] on my field, therefore I receive the effect of restoring HP."

"To avoid the possibility of being instantly killed by me..." Judai didn't care about that. He was just stalling for time anyway, so there was no need to defeat his opponent so quickly.
