Chapter 361
"What's going on? This memory...?!"
A special memory awakened in Yusei's mind, containing information on tens of thousands of cards and a large number of dueling tactics. Moreover, he sensed that a certain power hidden within him was awakening.
However, this sudden inspiration distracted him for a moment, and he didn't notice that the cops had caught up with him.
"Hey! You D-Wheel over there, running away won't help, stop right there!!"
With a roar, the lights of the helicopter in the sky shone on Yusei, and behind him were a police D-Wheel and a police Yusei come to his senses.
"They've arrived...!"
After driving the D-Wheel forward for a while, Yusei suddenly turned a corner and stopped at the entrance of an alley.
Seeing that Yusei had stopped, the cops who had been chasing him naturally stopped as well.
Tetsu Ushio then stepped off the D-Wheel, his back to the light, and asked, "Where did you steal that D-Wheel from?"
Faced with Commander Ushio's questioning, Yusei stared at him expressionlessly, without saying a word.
Ushio then looked at Yusei's face, put his hands on his hips and laughed, "Hahahaha, no mark? Heh, just bait. Do trash protect each other?"
"Since you harbored a criminal, your arrest is perfectly justified... We also need to find out the origin of that D-Wheel..."
At that moment, Yusei finally spoke, "Hey."
"Um?"
"Let's duel!"
"Huh? This trash from the satellite zone wants to duel me? You don't even have a card, don't make me laugh..."
Ignoring the other's taunts, Yusei held up a deck of cards and calmly replied, "I picked up a Junk Warrior."
As he set up his deck, he said, "If I win, we'll pretend today never happened."
"You, how could you possibly do something like this..."
Before his subordinate could finish speaking, Officer Ushio reached out and stopped him.
"You're quite the talker. I agree to your terms."
"Mr. Ushio, this won't do!"
"I'll take the blame. You can go back now."
Clearly, Ushio's words had piqued Yusei's card-playing addiction, and he naturally wouldn't refuse the challenge. Here, duels trump everything, even the law.
"Mr. Ushio..."
"Hurry up, do you think I'll lose?"
So the extra reluctantly explained the situation to the others and went back. Once they were all out of sight, Yusei continued, "You're an interesting man."
What are you trying to say?
"I don't trust the guards, but duelists are a different story."
"Ugh, this nagging guy is infuriating..."
As he spoke, Ushio turned around, mounted his D-Wheel, and rode onto the same line as Yusei.
"Ready to go! Field Spell [Speed World], set up!"
As the two pressed the start button, the Duel Disk set on the D-Wheel unfolded.
'Duel Mode, Autopilot Ready!' x2
"Duel!!" ×2
[Yusei Fudo: LP4000]
[Tetsu Ushio: LP4000]
With the sound of engines revving, the two D-Wheel shot off instantly, galloping away like wild horses.
Chapter Two: Was Your Deck Really Picked Up Off the Pickup?
Two D-Wheel vehicles sped along the dilapidated streets like lightning.
The Ushio, running ahead, seized the first round, exclaiming, "I get the first attack!"
[Tetsu Ushio's hand cards: 5→6]
Ushio glanced at his hand and laughed loudly, "What a perfect hand!"
He grabbed three cards and threw them into the graveyard one by one, shouting, "Ora ora ora!"
"Special Summon [Chimeratech Dragon] by sending three monster cards from your hand to the Graveyard!"
As the three cards entered the graveyard, three more cards appeared around him and were revealed in Yusei's eyes.
These are the Level 5 [Handcuff Dragon], the Level 4 [Assault Dog], and the [Hell Highway Patrol].
The next moment, the power of the three cards combined into a three-headed blue dragon wearing a white mask.
'Roar--!' x3
"This guy's attack power is 300 times the combined Levels of the monsters sent to the Graveyard by this card's effect."
[Chimeratech Dragon: Attack Power 3900]
"Hahaha, it's not over yet..." Ushio continued his actions, excitedly picking up another card from his hand. "By banishing [Hell Highway Patrol] from my Graveyard, I can Special Summon a Fiend-type monster with 2000 or less ATK from my hand. I Special Summon another [Hell Highway Patrol]!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a demon riding a motorcycle appeared.
[Hell Highway Patrol: Attack Power 1600]
"Next, Tuner monster [Jutte Samurai]!"
"Let this ignorant piece of trash from the satellite region see my Synchro Summon!"
"..." Yusei watched coldly without saying a word.
At that moment, Ushio shouted in a high-pitched voice, "It's about to start! A level 4 [Hell Highway Patrol] is using a star-shifting attack on a level 2 [Jutte Samurai]!"
"Synchro Summon, [Royal Guardian]!"
In an instant, green light burst forth, and a figure dressed as a kabuki performer emerged from the light.
[Royal Guardian: Attack Power 2800]
"See? This is a power you can't resist. My round is over."
[Tetsu Ushio's hand cards: 6→0]
After the turn of the Ushio Tail ended, Yusei finally reacted.
"My turn, draw a card!"
[Yusei Fudo's hand: 5 → 6]
(Yusei Fudo SPC1, Tetsu Ushio SPC1)
If there is only one Speed Counter, the Speed Spell cannot be used temporarily.
But there's no Kansai...
Yusei looked at his hand, recalled his previously awakened memories, and quickly came up with a plan.
"Go! I Special Summon the Tuner monster [Quickdraw Synchron] from my hand by sending one monster from my hand to the Graveyard."
As Yusei slammed the card onto the Duel Plate, a robot dressed as a Western cowboy was projected onto the screen.
"Then I summoned [Junk Synchron] from my hand..."
Seeing two more monsters suddenly appear on the Yusei, Ushio scoffed dismissively, "Haha! Trash is trash. Two Tuner monster can't be Synchro Summon, you know...!"
"You talk too much nonsense."
"What did you say?!"
Ignoring his opponent's annoyance, Yusei continued his maneuver, "[Junk Synchron]'s monster effect activated. When this card is successfully Summoned, negate the effects of 1 Level 2 or lower monster in your Graveyard and Special Summon it in Defense Position."
"Come on, [Junk Warrior]!"
The next moment, a figure on roller skates sped out.
[Junk Warrior: Attack 900, Defense 400]
"And when a monster is Special Summoned from your Graveyard, activate the effect of [Doppelwarrior] from your hand; Special Summon this card from your hand."
In the blink of an eye, four monsters appeared on Yusei's field.
[Yusei Fudo's hand: 6 → 2]
Without further ado, he raised his voice and shouted, "A level two [Doppelwarrior] is tuning a level three [Junk Synchron]!"
"Let the gathered stars awaken new life and become a shining path!"
"Synchro Summon! Appear, [Junk Warrior]!"
As soon as Yusei finished speaking, a beam of synchronized light shot past, and the Split Warrior immediately emerged from the light.
'Drink--!'
[Junk Warrior: Attack Power 2300]
Ushio was utterly astonished upon seeing this, exclaiming in disbelief, "How is this possible!? This trash from the Satellite District Synchro Summon!? But, with that little attack power, it can't compare to mine..."
However, before he could finish speaking, Yusei continued, "[Junk Warrior]'s monster effect: When this card Synchro Summon, this card gains ATK equal to the combined ATK of Level 2 or lower monsters you control."
"[Junk Warrior]'s attack power is 900, which means [Junk Warrior]'s attack power has increased to 3200 points...?"
"Of course, it's not just that..."
Just then, two small soldiers suddenly appeared on either side of Yusei's D-Wheel.
[Doppel Token: Attack Power 400] ×2
Yusei: "At this moment, another effect of [Doppelwarrior] activates. If this card is sent to the Graveyard as Synchro Material, Special Summon two [Doppel Token], thus increasing [Junk Warrior]'s total ATK by 1700."
[Junk Warrior: Attack Power 2300 → 4000]
Sweat finally started to bead on Ushio's face. He gritted his teeth and said, "Attack power of 4000!? This mere trash... Don't be ridiculous!?"
"Preparations for the battle aren't over yet..." Yusei's lips curled into a slight smile.
This is just the beginning! The power of the "Junk Warrior- tier" deck is only just starting.
Although Yusei hasn't acquired many important cards yet, the strategy of the "Junk Warrior" deck is still worth considering.
"[Quickdraw Synchron] can replace other [Synchron] for tuning when used in Synchro Summon... I used a level 2 [Junk Warrior] and a level 1 [Doppel Token] to tune a level 5 [Quickdraw Synchron]!"
"May the gathered hope lead to a new horizon, and become a path of shining light!"
"Synchro Summon! Transcend, [Stardust Warrior]!"
In an instant, the road was filled with the light of harmony, and a knight who looked like he was wearing a crown flew over.
[Stardust Warrior: Attack Power 3000]
"It's not over yet! [Stardust Warrior] monster effect activated!"
"Once per turn, during your Main Phase, Special Summon 1 Level 2 or lower Warrior-type or Machine-Type monster from your Deck, and Special Summon the Tuner monster [Jet Synchron] from your Deck."
"Again!?" Ushio was completely dumbfounded. "Did you really find your deck by chance?"
Chapter Three: One Kill
Upon hearing Ushio's question, Yusei simply smiled and remained silent.
The deck was indeed found, but not today; it was all picked up when I was collecting junk before.
Moreover, it seems that before his memories were awakened, Yusei instinctively built his main deck into a Junk Warrior- card deck, but his Extra Deck lacked many important Synchro Monsters, such as The Curator, Speedster, and some powerful Synchro Terminals.
Of course, he did have a Stardust Dragon, but it was taken away by Jack two years ago through underhanded means, and Jack went to the city to become the so-called king.
If it were a duel, Yusei couldn't possibly have lost to Stardust Dragon to Jack, since this so-called king has never beaten Yusei.
It's probably the dueling instinct brought about by that memory; it's just that now that I've awakened, the way I use combinations has become clearer.
Putting his mind at ease, Yusei continued his actions, "I'll use a level 1 [Doppel Token] to tune a level 1 [Jet Synchron]!"
"Synchro Summon! Come forth, [Flame Purple Dragon Giant Firebug]!"
In an instant, a green light shone, and a lizard engulfed in purple flames flew along the road on D-Wheel.
[Flame Purple Dragon Giant Firebug: Attack Power 800]
