Yu-Gi-Oh!: Starting with an Underworld Deck, Depressing the World

Surprised? Unexpected?

"What?! How is this possible?! This is... [the Gravekeeper's Guard]?!"

The Gravekeeper's Elder stared in shock at the emerging bald figure in black robes, exclaiming in disbelief.

Especially seeing [The Gravekeeper's Guard], whose Field Spell [Necrovalley] also increased his attack and defense stats by 500 points, bringing his defense to 2400.

And I thought of the flipping effect of [the Gravekeeper's Guard].

His face turned green!

Even Alexis Rhodes, Banner, and Jaden Yuki were stunned for a moment.

To my utter surprise, the monster Jiang He summoned was also a member of the Gravekeeper Clan!

And it's exactly the same as the example the Gravekeeper Elder just mentioned. "[The Gravekeeper's Guard]!" The flip effect of "[The Gravekeeper's Guard]" allows you to return one monster from your opponent's field to their hand when it's flipped face-up!

Jiang He, with a gentle smile befitting his respect for elders, pointed to the Gravekeeper's Elder's hand in the distance on the Monster Field and said, "The one I choose to return to my hand is, of course, the Gravekeeper's over there who personally entered the field—you!"

"If you're too old, don't get involved in the game all the time. Go back to that stone pillar and continue playing cards slowly." As Jiang He finished speaking, a golden light suddenly shone on the Gravekeeper Elder who was originally on the field in the distance, forcibly teleporting him back to the stone pillar behind him!

The Gravekeeper Elder, who originally had only three cards left in his hand, immediately gained an extra card along with the same golden glow.

"..." The Gravekeeper's Elder stared at his own reflection reappearing on the cards in his hand, his face dark and filled with resentment.

[Ding! The Gravekeeper's Elder's Emotion Points increased by 500!]

Hearing the pleasant system notification, Jiang He smiled with satisfaction and said, "At the same time, [Gravekeeper's Spear Soldier] continues its attack on my [Gravekeeper's Guard]!"

"Let me see a battle between a monster with 2000 ATK and the monster with 2400 DEF that you, the Gravekeeper's, called a 'minion'!"

As soon as Jiang He said this, the dozens of bald, pot-bellied Gravekeeper Guard standing by the altar looked at their elder with a slightly unpleasant expression!

If they remembered correctly, the elder did say earlier that the monster summoned by that young man, Gai Fang, was just a weakling...!

Doesn't that mean they're talking about?!

The Gravekeeper's Elder's face darkened even further! "Hmph!!"

However, before he could even utter a sound of frustration, the Gravekeeper's Guard in front of Jiang He, who was crouching in a defensive posture, raised his spear with an angry snort and easily wounded and repelled the charging black-robed spearman!

This caused the opponent to fall awkwardly back onto the ground in front of the Gravekeeper Elder!

The impact caused the Gravekeeper's Elder to stumble and nearly fall!

The Gravekeeper's Elder, whose original health was [4000LP], also saw his health decrease by 400LP, becoming [3600LP]!

"Jiang He is using the same deck as the Gravekeeper Clan." Alexis Rhodes looked at Jiang He's outrageous moves with a strange expression and couldn't help but say.

The most outrageous thing is that this guy even took the opportunity to stir up some resentment among the Gravekeeper Clan's soldiers.

At this moment, all the Gravekeeper's Guard pretended not to see anything, and not one of them went to help the Gravekeeper Elder who had almost fallen...

"Young man, why do you have a card belonging to our Gravekeeper Clan?!" The Gravekeeper's Elder quickly regained his footing on the stone pillar, frowning seriously as he looked at Jiang He and asked.

Their Gravekeeper Clan's cards probably don't even exist in that real world!

Looking at the black-robed, bald, pot-bellied barbarian soldiers in front of Jiang He, he began to wonder if some bastard from the Gravekeeper Clan had betrayed them!

But the aura emanating from the other person definitely didn't seem to belong to his clan!

"As for why I have it, I'm still looking for the reason!" Jiang He said, feigning thought for a moment, before spouting a classic, nonsensical platitude.

You're standing here, standing here!

However, the Gravekeeper's Elder, along with the squinty-eyed Professor Banner and the others, immediately began to ponder the matter upon hearing this.

Could there be some hidden secret here?!

"Hey old man Gravekeeper's over there, your turn should be over by now, right?" Jiang He interrupted him before he could even think about it.

After the other party confirmed with a stern face, he also drew his card without hesitation. "Then it's my turn, draw your card!"

"One of the core cards I needed has finally arrived." After glancing at it, Jiang He smirked and placed the card he had drawn onto his Duel Disk. "Defense Position! End turn!"

With a loud "thud," another huge, horizontally placed card shadow appeared on the field in front of him!

"Could it be [the Gravekeeper's Guard] again?" The Gravekeeper Elder's expression froze upon seeing this!

For a moment, he was unsure whether he should personally step in for the next round...

We also see the monster that Jiang He summoned face down again, with the card's shadow on the back.

Jaden Yuki, Syrus Truesdale Sho, and Alexis Rhodes all suddenly had similar suspicions to those of the Gravekeeper Elder.

Could this monster, Defense Position (face down), also be a [Gravekeeper's Guard]?

Given their familiarity with Jiang He, it doesn't seem entirely impossible.

The scene of him repeatedly "torturing" the Gravekeeper's, personally stepping in and then being forcibly sent back to the underworld by Jiang He...

"My turn, draw a card!"

After frowning and hesitating for a moment, the Gravekeeper Elder, who was his duel opponent, also decided to draw a card from the top of his own deck first to see how things went.

However, upon seeing the card he had drawn, a confident smile immediately returned to his face.

"Young man, it doesn't matter if the monster you release this time is still [the Gravekeeper's Guard]!"

Let me show you that when it comes to understanding our Gravekeeper Clan deck, you can't beat me!

Immediately, the Gravekeeper's Elder spoke, and immediately showed the card he had just drawn!

"I summon [The Gravekeeper's Assailant] with an attack!"

"Ho!!"

As a flash of light appeared, a familiar figure emerged—a masked female assassin in black robes and a hood—with a low shout!

They appeared in the arena next to the Gravekeeper Spear Soldier.

[The Gravekeeper's Assailant]

[Star Rating: 4]

[Attribute: Dark]

[Attack Power: 1500]

[Defense Strength: 1500]

"Go! [Gravekeeper's Assailant], attack [Gravekeeper's Guard]!"

After summoning the Gravekeeper Assailant, the Gravekeeper Elder immediately waved his hand to give the order.

"How could this be?!" Alexis Rhodes exclaimed in surprise upon seeing this.

The [Gravekeeper's Assailant] has an attack power of 1500, which increases to 2000 even with the buff from the Field Spell [Necrovalley].

However, when facing Jiang He on the field, who can also use the opponent's Field Spell buff to increase their defense to 2400, [Gravekeeper's Guard] should still only get hurt himself!

"[The Gravekeeper's Assailant]'s special effect allows you to change the attack and defense status of your opponent's face-up monsters when she attacks, provided [Necrovalley] is on the field."

The Professor Banner immediately explained.

"Jaden's ace monster, Flame Wingman, was easily destroyed by this Gravekeeper Assailant."

Not far away, Jaden Yuki, upon hearing this, also stared solemnly at Jiang He's duel arena and said, "That Gravekeeper's is probably trying to change Jiang He's [Gravekeeper's Guard] to attack stance to disrupt him!"

"Hmph, that's right, exactly!"

The Gravekeeper's Elder smiled and looked at Jiang He.

"Activate the special effect of [Gravekeeper's Assailant] to change the [Gravekeeper's Guard] on your field to Attack Position, then attack and destroy it!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the Gravekeeper's Assailant leaped into the air, his body instantly glowing with a dark purple energy!

The dark purple energy instantly acted on the Gravekeeper's Guard in front of Jiang He.

The bald, pot-bellied soldier in the black robe seemed to be controlled by the dark purple energy, forced to stand up from his half-crouched defensive position.

The one wielding the spear has now adopted an attack stance!

"[The Gravekeeper's Guard] only has 1000 attack power. Even with the added effect of your free use of my Field Spell [Necrovalley], it only has 1500 attack power, which is easily destroyed by [The Gravekeeper's Assailant], which has 2000 attack power! Go, Shadow Backstab!"

The Gravekeeper Elder's face immediately broke into a smug smile as he clenched his fist and said...

He has made thorough considerations.

Even if the other monster on Jiang He's field is Gravekeeper's Guard, it can return one of his monsters to his hand in the next turn.

Even after that, he was still able to easily eliminate the enemy by relying on the Gravekeeper's Assailant effect!

In particular, the trap card he lurks on the field can revive monsters in the graveyard and is unaffected by the graveyard closure effect of [Necrovalley].

It's sufficient to handle all kinds of situations!

"Hey, Gravekeeper's over there, you seem to be treating my three Ambush cards in the back row as nothing at all."

Just as the Gravekeeper's Assailant appeared behind the Gravekeeper Guard, his curved serpent blade about to stab them in the back.

Jiang He remained completely calm as he spoke, raising his hand to indicate one of the three hidden cards on the field in front of him!

"Activate the ambush card, a perpetual trap [Necrovalley Temple]!"

A Trap Card with an ancient temple design was suddenly flipped open!

"The Necrovalley Temple?!" The Gravekeeper Elder exclaimed in surprise.

Looking at the trap with the ancient sacrificial temple pattern that had been lifted on the ground in front of Jiang He!

It was as if I were seeing it for the first time.

Because of this Trap Card, it seems that his authentic Gravekeeper Deck, belonging to this elder of the Gravekeeper Clan, indeed doesn't have...

This caused the Gravekeeper's Elder to fall silent for a moment.

Some began to doubt the meaning of life.

Between him and the boy named Jiang He opposite him, who is the true Gravekeeper Clan?

Why does this boy possess Trap Card from the Gravekeeper Clan that even he doesn't have?!

"This card's effect only applies when there is a ' Gravekeeper's ' monster on the field and [Necrovalley] is active. Your opponent's monsters lose 500 ATK and DEF!"

Jiang He then delivered another, rather painful blow, to the Gravekeeper's Elder on the other side.

"Although I don't have the [Necrovalley] Field Spell, luckily, the old man Gravekeeper's over there does!"

"Even the monsters with 'Gravekeeper's' in their names—they meet all these criteria perfectly!"

"..." The Gravekeeper's Elder and the Gravekeeper's Assailant.

Even Alexis Rhodes, her Professor Banner Jaden Yuki fell silent upon hearing Jiang He's words.

A bead of cold sweat trickled down their faces as they looked at Jiang He...

At this moment, all they wanted to say to Jiang He was, "Please, have some decency!"
