Even though he was missing the most important part, his head, he couldn't gather the Seal of the Orichalcos to achieve a special victory.

However, the Treasure Panda's monster-pulling effect could still be used normally, so Yugi took a card from his graveyard and said, "I'll banish Hand Destruction from my graveyard to special summon the Level 1 Normal Monster, Right Arm of the Forbidden One, from my Deck."

With a flash of light, a giant yellow right hand was projected onto Yugi's field.

[Right Arm of the Forbidden One: DEF 300]

Seeing this, Seto Kaiba crossed his arms and said, "Hmph! Are you out of options? You're trying to bolster your defenses because you don't have any cards in your hand that can defeat me?"

"You're too naive, Yugi! My Blue-Eyes Twin Burst Dragon has the special ability to attack twice, and I can tear through your flimsy shield in an instant!"

Hearing this, Yugi chuckled, "You're the one who's naive, Kaiba. Who said I was trying to strengthen my defenses..."

"Nani!?"

The President lowered his arms and frowned.

At this moment, Yugi inserted another card into his Duel Disk: "Before I use that card, I'll send the Right Arm of the Forbidden One on my field to the graveyard and activate the Spell Card, Cost of the Skeleton Horse, from my hand."

"You can activate this card by sending 1 face-up monster you control that is not an Effect Monster to the Graveyard. Draw 2 cards from your Deck."

The newly summoned Left Arm instantly vanished.

"Fallen!!"

[Yugi Muto Hand: 2 → 3]

Yugi glanced at the two cards he drew and ignored them. Instead, he inserted the card he drew at the beginning of his turn into his Duel Disk: "I'll activate the Spell Card, Magical Fusion, from my hand."

"Banish Fusion Material Monsters from your side of the field or Graveyard that are specified by a Magician-type Fusion Monster Card, and Fusion Summon that Fusion Monster from your Extra Deck."

[Yugi Muto Hand: 3 → 2]

"A Fusion Spell Card from the Graveyard!?"

The President's frown deepened. He didn't know what would be summoned next.

At this moment, Yugi took out four cards from his graveyard: "I'll banish Left Arm of the Forbidden One, Right Arm of the Forbidden One, Left Leg of the Forbidden One, and Right Leg of the Forbidden One from my graveyard, along with Ultimate Seal God Exodius on my field, a total of five Magician-type monsters, as Fusion Materials."

Seto Kaiba's pupils contracted: "It's using five monsters for Fusion? What kind of Fusion Monster requires this many Fusion Materials?"

While he was still wondering, a gate inscribed with a magic circle appeared on Yugi's field.

"Descend, the highest-level magician who reaches the pinnacle of legend and arrives in the realm of the gods!"

As soon as Yugi finished speaking, a magician in a blue robe emerged from the otherworldly gate.

"Fusion Summon, Five Array Magician!"

[Five Array Magician: ATK 4500]

Seto Kaiba subconsciously muttered, "This is the highest-level magician, with an ATK that surpasses even the gods, just like Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon..."

However, this didn't mean the President was afraid. On the contrary, it ignited his fighting spirit.

"Hehehe, hahahaha, ahahahaha, hahahahaha..."

"I'm so excited, I'm trembling all over!"

"Only when dueling you do I feel this way, this kind of battle filled with wisdom and will, pushed to the limit, makes my blood boil!"

"Come on, attack me to your heart's content! No matter how powerful your monsters are, I'll take them all!"

Since he said so, Yugi didn't hold back: "Then take this, Kaiba! I activate the special ability of Five Array Magician!"

"If this card is Fusion Summoned using 5 different types of Magician-type monsters as material, you can activate this effect. Destroy all cards on your opponent's field."

Five Array Magician swung its staff, and five magic circles appeared behind it. A large number of magic bullets were summoned from the five magic circles and shot forward.

Seto Kaiba was shocked: "All the cards on my field are destroyed!? A terrifying ability that even gods cannot avoid..."

"But I'm still superior!"

Saying that, he quickly pressed a button and flipped over the card he had set last turn: "Feel the invincible might of Blue-Eyes! I activate the Trap Card, Tough! Invincible! Strongest!"

"You can activate this card by targeting 1 '[Blue-Eyes]' monster on your field. This turn, that face-up monster is unaffected by the effects of cards other than its own, cannot be destroyed by battle, and any monster that battles that monster is destroyed at the end of the Damage Step."

Blue-Eyes Twin Burst Dragon then opened its mouths and sucked in all the magic bullets, completely nullifying their destructive power.

Seeing this, the King's brow furrowed: "Kaiba is really troublesome, AIBO."

Yugi nodded: "Yeah..."

However, he still didn't care and turned the monster card on his Duel Disk: "I'll change Dark End Dragon to Defense Position."

[Dark End Dragon: DEF 1200]

He then inserted another card from his hand into his Duel Disk.

"Finally, I'll set one card face-down. My turn ends."

[Yugi Muto Hand: 2 → 1]

"Hmph! Just as I thought, Yugi, you're still helpless against the invincible Blue-Eyes..."

Seto Kaiba was not surprised at all. After all, with Twin Burst Dragon having full immunity and battle resistance, there was no way to deal with it except for eating it or effects that targeted the player.

Chapter 71: Stirring up the Grass to Catch the Snake

"My turn, draw!"

[Seto Kaiba Hand: 1 → 2]

Looking at the card he drew this time, Seto Kaiba's lips curled up. "Yugi, by now, neither of us has many cards left in hand, right?"

Hearing this line, Yugi's DNA stirred. "Huh!? Could it be..."

His tone suggested he'd drawn a windfall, and now Yugi was about to gain five cards for free.

Of course, he also had to be wary of the President's next attack.

At this moment, the President had already inserted his card into the Duel Disk. "I'll take the lead now. I activate the Spell Card [Card of Demise] from my hand!"

"Draw cards from your Deck until you have five cards, fall!!"

The President grabbed four cards from his Deck.

[Seto Kaiba Hand: 2 → 5]

Yugi was stunned for a moment. "Huh!?"

Yugi: "If only you can draw, then what's the point of that ridiculous line?"

He thought he was going to draw cards too, but it was a false alarm.

Of course, Yugi hadn't lost his composure yet; he still had a trap waiting for the President to step on.

As expected, the opponent stepped on it, and Yugi's chance to turn the tables arrived.

Seto Kaiba first glanced at his hand, then picked up one card and said with a smile, "Yugi! You still have one face-down card on your field. I know that card must be a Trap Card. With your personality, you wouldn't set a card that's not very useful, am I right?"

Yugi subconsciously nodded.

The President's expression became even more confident. "As expected, that's why I've already prepared a countermeasure to eliminate that card."

Saying that, he inserted the card into his Duel Disk. "I activate the Spell Card [Memory Swing] from my hand."

"Target 1 Normal Monster in your Graveyard; Special Summon it. That monster, Special Summoned by this effect, is destroyed during the End Phase of this turn."

[Seto Kaiba Hand: 5 → 4]

"[White Spirit Dragon], which is in the Graveyard, is treated as a Normal Monster. Therefore, revive, [White Spirit Dragon]!"

Projected by the equipment, a pure white giant dragon appeared on the President's field.

[White Spirit Dragon: ATK 2500]

"And at this moment, the Special Ability of [White Spirit Dragon] activates!"

"When this card is Normal Summoned or Special Summoned: You can target 1 Spell/Trap Card your opponent controls; banish it."

At this, White Spirit Dragon flapped its wings, and several wind blades shattered Yugi's face-down card.

Seeing that Yugi hadn't revealed his face-down card, Seto Kaiba was overjoyed. "Hahaha, without your face-down card, you can't stop my attack anymore, Yugi!"

At this moment, Yugi's lips suddenly curved upwards. "Heh, you fell for it, Kaiba."

"What!?"

The President's smile froze. Then, seeing what was before him, his pupils suddenly constricted.

Because he saw the face-down card that had just been destroyed, and then Yugi flipped it over, revealing the card art.

Yugi continued, "The effect of this Trap Card [Stirring up the Grass to Catch the Snake], which you banished, activates."

"If this face-down card is sent to the Graveyard or banished by an opponent's card effect while on the field, you can activate it. Special Summon 1 monster from your Deck or Extra Deck."

"From the Deck... no way!?"

Seto Kaiba was suddenly shocked.

"It's exactly that 'no way'! The monster I'm going to Special Summon is [The Winged Dragon of Ra]!"

"This is bad!!"

At some point, Yugi's gaze suddenly turned sharp. The Pharaoh was being used as a tool by Yugi again to summon a God Card.

Pharaoh: ...

He was somewhat helpless, but he went along with the arrangement.

The Pharaoh didn't take out his Deck to search; instead, he used his intuition to perform a divine draw, pulling a card from his Deck and holding it.

Then he began to chant the ancient incantation, activating the power on the card.

"Summon [The Winged Dragon of Ra]!"

The air suddenly became scorching hot, and an immortal bird made of flames appeared in the sky.

[The Winged Dragon of Ra: DEF 0]

"It's actually the God... Phoenix..."

The President instinctively took a step back.

The Pharaoh ignored the President's reaction and continued, "By paying 1000 Life Points, I activate the Special Ability of the God Phoenix. Destroy all monsters on your field, and this card cannot be destroyed by battle or affected by card effects this turn."

[Yugi Muto: LP 4000 → 3000]

The phoenix's overflowing divine flames instantly incinerated the two White Dragons on the President's field.

"Damn it! Was all of this in your calculations?"

King: It wasn't me, it has nothing to do with me, he did it all (referring to Yugi).

The President was indeed too careless; did he really think blowing away Yugi's Set cards would be safe?

Truly too naive.

Yugi, having guessed that the President had White Spirit Dragon, had anticipated that the President would use White Spirit Dragon to clear his back row. That's why Yugi deliberately set a trap that could only activate its effect when blown away by wind.

But how could the President have imagined Yugi could be so devious? Thus, he foolishly fell right into it.

King & President: The hearts that play tactics are truly dark.

Of course, the President quickly composed himself and continued his turn.

He inserted another card into his Duel Disk and said, "Then, I discard the Level 8 monster [Blue-Eyes White Dragon] from my hand as a cost, activate the Spell Card [Bargain], and draw two cards from my Deck."

Let's get rid of two cards first.

"Fallen!!"

After glancing at the cards he drew, the President's expression eased slightly. "Hmph! It seems the goddess of victory will ultimately come to my side..."

He inserted one of the cards into his Duel Disk. "I'm not the only one who can Fusion Summon from the Graveyard. I activate the Spell Card [Dragon's Mirror]."

"Banish the Fusion Materials described on a Dragon Fusion Monster Card from your field and/or Graveyard, then Fusion Summon that Fusion Monster from your Extra Deck."
