Yu-Gi-Oh!: Starting with an Underworld Deck, Depressing the World
Jiang He also said with a smile.
He put the complete deck back onto his gold gem Duel Disk!
"Is Jiang He planning to continue using the same deck to deal with Yubel...?"
Upon seeing Alexis Rhodes couldn't help but say with some concern.
On the other side, Chancellor Sheppard, along with Tenjouin Atticus Rhodes, Chazz Princeton, and others, all wore solemn expressions.
Jiang He has never been defeated so far.
It has an even longer winning streak than Aster Phoenix holds the record for the most consecutive wins in professional dueling.
One reason is that Jiang He frequently changes his underworld deck!
Even if the opponent has some knowledge of his deck, it will be very difficult to completely counter him!
But now, the information about this Branded Despia Deck has been "completely" known to that Yubel.
If we use this against Yubel again, we might actually be targeted!
"Duel!"
"Duel!"
While Alexis Rhodes were worried, Jiang He and Yubel had already begun their duel!
As each player drew five cards from their deck, the same [4000LP] Life Points immediately appeared around them!
"If I let you go first, I'm afraid I'll be in the same situation as Adrian. So, I'll take the first strike!"
Yubel chuckled and placed its dragon claw directly onto its own Dragon Duel Disk deck! "My turn, draw!"
Since Jiang He is using the same Branded Despia Deck as before, it has nothing to worry about!
What Yubel didn't notice was the even happier smile on Jiang He's face!

"Since you have the potential to summon a monster with a limited card effect next turn, then I'll make good use of that on my first turn, when I go first!"
Across the distance, after glancing at the card he had drawn, Yubel chuckled and immediately showed it to everyone!
"Activate the special effect of this monster from your hand: [Grinder Golem] Special Summon it to your opponent's field. As a cost, you can Special Summon two Level 1 DARK Attribute ' Grinder Token ' with 0 ATK and DEF to your field!"
"Appear, [Grinder Golem]!"
"Roar!!"
As Yubel finished speaking, a faint light appeared on the ground in front of Jiang He, which instantly transformed into the figure of a huge mechanical monster with a bluish-gray body, clawed arms, and chains!
With a mechanical roar, it appeared on the field in front of Jiang He!
Grinder Golem
[Star Rating: 8]
[Attribute: Dark]
24 [Attack Power: 3000]
[Defense: 300]
"Buzz!!"
At the same time, two small, bluish-gray mechanical monster derivatives also appeared on the field in front of Yubel with a faint light!
He crouched down, appearing there in Defense Position!
[Grinder Token]
[Star Rating: 1]
[Attribute: Dark]
[Attack Power: 0]
[Defense Strength: 0]
"What?! He actually Special Summon a powerful monster with 3000 ATK that has no negative effects to Jiang He's field?!"
Seeing this, Chazz Princeton exclaimed in surprise from a distance.
Even those Jaden Yuki Bastion Misawa, and Johan Andersen), all wore expressions of surprise and doubt!
"What exactly does Yubel want to do?" On the other side, Kaiser Zane Truesdale also frowned in confusion.
Then, as if he had just realized something, he looked at the two [Grinder Token] on Yubel's field with a change of expression and exclaimed in surprise, "Masaka, it's preparing to use it as a tribute to summon 'the [Masquerade the Blazing Dragon]' that can target Jiang He!" Jiang He immediately guessed Yubel's purpose and what this yandere wanted to summon! "Hmph, it's that Masaka, using my two [Grinder Token] as tributes!" Almost simultaneously, hearing the surprised commotion from Kaiser Zane Truesdale, Yubel, far away on the opposite side, grinned and slammed a card from his remaining five cards onto his Crimson Dragon Duel Disk! "I summon 'Myself' in Attack Position!" "Hmph!!"
As a sacrificial glow appeared, the two bluish-gray mechanical [Grinder Token] instantly turned into particles and disappeared.
In the blink of an eye, a plume of dark, ominous smoke rose from the ground in front of Yubel!
Soon, a clone that looked exactly like Yubel appeared on the field, snorting and grinning crookedly at Jiang He!
However, there was no crimson dragon Duel Disk on its left arm!
[Yubel]
[Star Rating: 10]
[Attribute: Dark]
[Attack Power: 0]
[Defense Strength: 0]
"So it happened! That classic 'I summon myself' move..." Jiang He's face immediately showed an "I knew it" expression, which became somewhat strange!
However, he said that Yubel's "I summon myself" move didn't seem as classic as the Gravekeeper's, where he personally took to the field!
He simply separated a portion of his body and power to create a clone.
Otherwise, the "warm experience" he'd give her later might have been even more extraordinary! That is, Yubel's own card...?!
In the distance below the stage, Chancellor Sheppard, Professor Crowler, Big-Nosed Little Black Axel Brodie, and others watched this scene in astonishment.
"Huh? But if the attack power is only 0, it seems to be much weaker than the [Grinder Golem] with 3000 attack power that the other side gave to Jiang He for free, right?" The short Syrus Truesdale next to him quickly raised the doubts of a slacker.
"Hmph, naive! Is this the only level of naivety you're capable of when following the Jaden's underlings?"
His words were immediately met with ridicule from Yubel, who was in a yandere mood, in the distance.
"My own special effect cannot be destroyed by combat, and all combat damage I suffer will be borne by the opponent," Yubel chuckled, looking at Jiang He as he continued.
"In other words, whether it's the 3000 ATK [Grinder Golem] that I Special Summon to your field, or the ace monster you might summon later, [Masquerade the Blazing Dragon], they will only become tools for me to inflict damage on you!" "What?! It's a similar underhanded trick to [Amazoness Swords Woman]!" Upon hearing this, Bastion Misawa, who was watching from a distance, immediately showed a shocked expression.
If that's the case, then it would indeed be quite effective against Jiang He's [Masquerade the Blazing Dragon]! Yubel only needs to use itself to continuously attack the monsters on Jiang He's field, and it can reduce Jiang He's Life Points to zero within two effects!
The "problems" I mentioned earlier are indeed starting to emerge!

"I'm not interested in you. You should leave this kind of love-hate relationship to that hot-blooded idiot, Jaden."
Jiang He simply shrugged, completely unconcerned, when Yubel boasted about the effects of his product.
Yubel's self-reflecting damage effect is indeed quite troublesome, but his Branded Despia Deck isn't just limited to [Masquerade the Blazing Dragon].
Jiang He stated that the deck he used against Adrian Gecko only represented half of its essence!
"Hmph, let you keep being stubborn for a while."
Upon hearing Jiang He's words, Yubel immediately snorted coldly.
Immediately, it took one card from its remaining four cards and placed it on its own Dragon Duel Disk to activate its attack!
"Next, I activate the Spell Card [Graceful Charity] from my hand! Draw three cards from your Deck, then discard any two cards from your hand to the Graveyard!"
A familiar Spell Card, depicting a golden-haired angel holding a giant card image in both hands, instantly appeared on the field in front of Yubel.
"I choose to discard this Level 1 monster from my hand, along with another card, to the graveyard."
After drawing three more cards from his deck, Yubel quickly put two of them from his hand into the graveyard!
"That Level 1 monster is... [Samsara Lotus]?" Jiang He immediately recognized the Level 1 monster that Yubel, that yandere, had abandoned to go to the graveyard.
Isn't that one of the core cards he used in his underworld "World Lock Deck" when he dueled with that old Sartorius, the Light of Destruction, and brought warmth to him? It's the Samsara Lotus!
Even those watching from a distance, including Alexis Rhodes, Chancellor Sheppard, and Jaden Yuki, immediately recalled what had happened!
At that time, Jiang He used the [Samsara Lotus], which could be continuously resurrected from the graveyard, as a sacrifice required as a price when the Arcana Force XXI - The World continuously skipped the opponent's turn effect.
Could it be that Yubel now also needs to pay the price of becoming a constant sacrifice?!
"Oh? So you also know the effect of this 1-star monster [Samsara Lotus]~."
Seeing Jiang He's reaction, Yubel, the yandere who was his duel opponent, quickly guessed what was going on and took out two cards from her four-card hand and placed them on the Duel Disk!
"Finally, I'll bury two more cards, then activate the effect of [Samsara Lotus] in my graveyard."
"At the end of the turn, it exists in the Graveyard and can be resurrected Special Summon to your field!"
"Phew!!"
As a faint orange-yellow light appeared, a small green plant figure sitting on a lotus flower suddenly materialized.
He appeared on the field in front of Yubel with a grotesque laugh!
[Samsara Lotus]
[Star Rating: 1]
[Attribute: Dark]
[Attack Power: 0]
[Defense Strength: 0]
"After that, I activate the negative effect of 'Myself,' meaning that at the end of each turn I must sacrifice one monster I control as a cost, or destroy myself." Yubel immediately raised his hand, gesturing towards the [Samsara Lotus] that it had just resurrected Special Summon from the Graveyard. "To maintain my existence, the sacrifice I choose is, of course, this [Samsara Lotus]."
As its words fell, the newly summoned [Samsara Lotus] instantly turned into a burst of shimmering particles, disappearing once more as the price! "How cruel! Such a weak little monster, barely resurrected, is used as a sacrifice." Jiang He shook his head in strong condemnation.
"..." This immediately left Chazz Princeton, Bastion Misawa, Atticus Rhodes, and the others who were watching from a distance speechless.
If I hadn't seen someone before, in a mad inhuman act, sacrificing two [Samsara Lotus] monsters as tribute to skip the opponent's turn.
They almost believed it!
Upon hearing this, Yubel's yandere expression darkened slightly. "~Let's end this psychological warfare here!" "Now, it's my turn, draw a card!"
Jiang He smiled faintly as he drew cards from his gold-plated Duel Disk.
After glancing at the card he had drawn, a smile immediately appeared on his face.
The card that can bring "joy" to Yubel, this yandere, was actually drawn in the first round?
He then added the card he had drawn to his hand, and then pulled out another card to show it off! "Activate Quick-Play Spell from my hand, [Branded Opening]!"
A Quick-Play Spell with a blood-red chaotic battle pattern suddenly appeared on the field in front of Jiang He! "Is this Quick-Play Spell we haven't used before?!" Yubel frowned, surprised.
