Yu-Gi-Oh!: Starting with an Underworld Deck, Depressing the World
"[Skull Dice]'s effect: When a monster attacks, banishing it as a cost can Null and Void that attack!"
"Skull Dice!"
As the Yuma Tsukumo raised their hands in a gesture of greeting...
Suddenly, an orange-yellow light shot out from his Duel Disk graveyard, transforming into a black pig-like monster phantom.
Then, as if he had sneezed, a small pig skeleton shot out to block the dark purple serpentine energy beam that was shooting towards him!
The attack was instantly blocked, and an explosion erupted in a burst of fire before both disappeared!
"Tch! You actually managed to block it by luck...!"
Seeing this, Vector, his dueling opponent in the distance, scoffed in annoyance and continued looking in Yuma Tsukumo's direction.
"However, given that we currently have no cards in hand and only one card on the field whose effect has been Null and Void..."
For someone with a mere 2300 attack power like [CNO.39·Hope Emperor·Utopia Ray V], it's just enough to last one more round!
"That's how I end this round!"
Upon hearing this, Yuma Tsukumo's expression turned even more serious, and he gritted his teeth!
The current situation is indeed quite dangerous for him!
"Yuma, the moment to test the bond between us has arrived...!"
Meanwhile, the Astral floating nearby also watched this scene with a solemn expression and said...
Given the current situation, it's clear that even in its current zexal state, formed by merging with Yuma,
Even a miraculous draw might not be able to reverse this terrible situation.
However, after it first entered its zexal state before Yuma, Jiang He mentioned that its zexal state with Yuma had not yet reached its most perfect state.
The stronger the bond, the greater the power you will gain!
Until Zexal reaches its perfect state!
"Understood!!"
Yuma Tsukumo immediately and solemnly responded!
Then, as if making a firm decision, he looked at Vector bewildered expression on the other side of the distance.
Under the dumbfounded gazes of Jaden Yuki, Chazz Princeton, and the others who were watching the battle alongside Jiang He,
Quickly, together with Astral, one of them raised both hands to the left and lifted one leg, assuming the stance of standing on one leg like a rooster!
The other one raised both hands to the right and also lifted the other leg!
Then, they quickly brought their hands together, each extending an index finger, and bent down to touch them together!
"Puff!!"
Upon seeing this ambiguous, seemingly inexplicable combination of movements, and wondering who had taught it to them, everyone stared wide-eyed in disbelief!
Jiang He almost spat out his water on the spot!
Then, suppressing a laugh, he watched this scene with a strange expression!
It was so hard to hold it in!
He was somewhat surprised; he had previously, in a mischievous way, told the lobster-headed young man Yuma Tsukumo, and Astral, about the "Super Saiyan fusion pose" for reference.
These two actually started using it with a real sense of ritual!
"Let's stack us up! Combine! Zexal II!"
"Buzz!!"
Meanwhile, in the dark red dueling space in the distance, as Yuma Tsukumo and Astral, both in shameful bent-over poses, finished speaking...
In the blink of an eye, the two figures transformed into two beams of light, one red and one blue, intertwining and flying upwards into the sky!
In the blink of an eye, it merged into a red X-shaped beam of light!
Soon, a figure named Yuma Tsukumo appeared in the spot, dressed in red and white armor and with an orange and red lobster head!
Compared to their initial Zexal state, their current self-proclaimed Zexal II clearly has more mechanical armor!
"Good heavens, it actually worked...!"
Seeing the figure of Yuma Tsukumo in his red and white armor, whose imposing presence was clearly stronger than that of the previous Zexal,
Jiang He couldn't help but twitch his lips and mutter a sarcastic remark.
0 ·····Requesting flowers····· ·
If we were to describe Zexal's previous red and yellow hairstyle as a spicy curry crayfish...
So, given its current orange and red color scheme, he'd call it Extra Spicy Curry Spicy Crayfish...!
"This is an even stronger zexal state...?!"
Seeing this scene as well, Jaden Yuki, Chazz Princeton, and the others nearby, as well as Alexis Rhodes and Akiza Izinski on the other side, all showed expressions of astonishment!
"Now it's my turn, draw a card!"
Soon, within the dark red sphere of the duel space in the distance, Yuma Tsukumo, now Zexal II, and the Astral could be seen.
In the blink of an eye, under the astonished gaze of the distant Vector "Nani," he immediately raised his hand and drew a card from his own Duel Disk deck!
After glancing at the card he had drawn, he immediately pointed it out and activated it!
"I activate the Spell Card [Pot of Greed] from my hand! You can draw two more cards from your Deck!"
As he spoke, Yuma Tsukumo, now Zexal II, immediately drew another card from his Duel Disk deck, his hand glowing with golden light!
"For true duelists, everything is predetermined, even the gacha system!"
"Reconstructing Everything - Shining Draw!"
After drawing cards to replenish his hand to two, Yuma Tsukumo, the young man with the spicy curry lobster head who had become Zexal II, immediately took out a card and slapped it onto his Duel Disk!
"I summon in Defense Position, [Zexal Servant...
"Scold!!"
As a vortex of blue light appeared, a mage-monster figure clad in platinum and gold armor and wielding a staff quickly emerged from it!
He appeared in front of Yuma Tsukumo with a low shout!
[Zexal Servant - Phantom Sage]
[Star Rating: 1]
[Attribute: Light]
[Attack Power: 500]
[Defense Strength: 100] Evening.

"Zexal Servant...?! A new monster from the Zexal series?"
Upon seeing this unfamiliar monster, the cunning actor Vector, who was his dueling opponent in the distance, showed a surprised expression!
In the information it had previously extracted from Yuma Tsukumo, there was no mention of a monster with the name "Zexal Servant"!
Even those watching the Jaden Yuki alongside Jiang He, including Judai Yuki, Chazz Princeton, and Kite Tenjo, couldn't help but show expressions of astonishment!
"It's not over yet!"
The next second, in the distant dark red duel space, the young man with the spicy curry lobster head, now Zexal II, was...
Yuma Tsukumo and Astral, immediately raised their hands to indicate to "Six Seven Three" the area in front of them!
"Activate the special effect of [Zexal Servant - Phantom Sage] once per turn: Draw one card from your Deck!"
Yuma Tsukumo spoke, he immediately began drawing cards from his own Duel Disk deck with all his might!
After glancing at the card he had drawn, he excitedly pointed it out and activated it!
"Here it comes! The Reversal card that Astral and I needed! I activate the Spell Card [Monster Reborn] from my hand!"
A familiar Spell Card with a blue cross pattern suddenly appeared on the field in front of Yuma Tsukumo!
"This card's effect allows you to revive and Special Summon any monster from either player's Graveyard!"
As Yuma Tsukumo, now Zexal II, spoke, he immediately raised his hand and caught a card that automatically popped out of his own Duel Disk Graveyard, indicating it was his toy!
Then he casually slammed it onto his own Duel Disk!
"The one I choose to revive through Special Summon is, of course, the Reversal Hope that was previously sent to the Graveyard as Xyz Material!"
"Appear again, [No. 39, Emperor Utopia]!"
"Zha!!"
As a vortex of blue light appeared, a warrior-monster figure with platinum and white armor and golden mechanical wings quickly emerged from it once again!
He reappeared in front of Yuma Tsukumo, muttering a low shout!
Even if we revive one, there aren't Xyz Material to use it and activate its effect.
Moreover, what use is Hope the Utopia, whose attack power is only 2500 points?
Seeing this, Vector, his dueling opponent in the distance, immediately began to laugh mockingly with a wide, exaggerated expression.
Even those watching, including Jaden Yuki, Chazz Princeton, and Kite Tenjo, couldn't help but frown and show serious expressions.
Although that Vector was indeed despicable, what he said at that moment was also true.
Without even Xyz Material, Hope the Utopia, whose effect can Null and Void one of the opponent's attacks, is completely useless even if he is resurrected Special Summon back!
It can only be used as a defensive barrier to withstand one attack from the enemy...!
Only Jiang He had a slight smile on his face.
Because he knew about the "Reconstructing Everything - Shining Draw" ability that Zexal II.
But it can rewrite the card draw process, allowing you to draw Rank-Up-Magic that doesn't exist in your deck!
Of course, this "Reconstructing Everything - Shining Draw" doesn't actually allow you to change cards on the spot and get whatever card you want.
It simply rewrites a card drawn later into a card called [Rank-Up-Magic: Numeron Power] that wasn't originally in the deck!
Essentially, it's still a divine draw similar to Jiang Daishanren's "Top-Tier Clear Mind" divine draw ability.
However, he can draw any card that wasn't in his deck, and his deck is relatively full.
Now Yuma and Astral, who have transformed into Zexal II, can only draw [Rank-Up-Magic: Numeron Power], unlike the monster cards with "Zexal Weapon" in their names that they could previously draw.
And the new monster cards with "Zexal Servant" in their names that appeared after Tier 2!
Compared to the previous basic Zexal state, it can only be described as a slightly free expansion of the God Draw deck.
