"My Turn, Draw!"
Drawing a card and adding it to his Hand, Hayato hadn't even played any cards yet, but the people in the Audience Seats couldn't help but recall the brief yet deeply impressive scene from the previous Grouping Match because of Hayato's words.
Mainly, what Hayato just said was exactly the same as what he said back then.
However, the Monster Hayato was about to Summon next was not the "Cyber End Dragon ATK 8000" they had anticipated, but another Monster that hadn't appeared in a long time.
"I Activate the Quick-Play Spell Card, **Ojama Magic Remodeling**," Hayato explained after showing the card he was activating. "This card's Effect is to reveal one Machine Type, LIGHT Attribute Fusion Monster from my Hand to the opponent, then Banish any number of **Ojama** Monsters from my Hand, Graveyard, or Field, and Special Summon from my Hand or Graveyard Fusion Material Monsters listed on that Fusion Monster equal to the number of Banished Monsters."
"The Monster I will reveal is **XYZ-Dragon Cannon**. Therefore, I Banish three **Ojama** Monsters from my Graveyard, and Special Summon the three Monsters **X-Head Cannon**, **Y-Dragon Head**, and **Z-Metal Tank**."
As Hayato inserted the card into his Duel Disk, the Phantom Images of **Ojama Yellow**, **Ojama Green**, and **Ojama Black**, which Hayato had previously sent to the Graveyard one after another, emerged from the Graveyard Zone. They all struck poses that, while cool, looked completely unsuitable for these three comedic characters, and a faint sound of "Ayi Ya Ya~" could even be heard.
The crucial point was that these three comedic characters, upon appearing, completely failed to notice what card Hayato had Activated to pull them out of the Graveyard. Upon seeing the top of **Jack's Knight**'s head on Yugi's Field, standing opposite Hayato, **Ojama Yellow** became particularly agitated.
"Tsk tsk tsk, I really didn't expect this. I thought only clowns like me would be Traitors, I never thought even a thick-browed, big-eyed guy like you, you Rainbow Bastard, would betray us!" **Ojama Yellow**'s tone was impassioned and stirring, enough to make one cry. It turned around and spoke righteously to Hayato, "Just for my sake, Aniki, Attack that Rainbow Bastard!"
Then, it saw itself struggling, tied to an experimental table on the card art of **Ojama Magic Remodeling**.
"W-What is this?!"
Just as **Ojama Yellow** and its two brothers hadn't reacted, **Ojama Magic Remodeling** began to take effect. A large amount of Armor appeared out of thin air on Hayato's Field, directly smashing onto **Ojama Yellow** and the others.
Hayato, who drew three Monster Cards from his Deck and placed them one by one on the Field, paid no mind to the miserable state of **Ojama Yellow** and the others. He casually stuffed their cards, which popped out of the Graveyard Zone, into his pocket.
Of course, when he drew, a **Cyber Petit Dragon** did not appear in his Hand.
The Armor that had smashed "killed" **Ojama Yellow** and the others began to combine with each other. Within a few breaths, the Armor pieces finished uniting, and the red, blue, and yellow Mecha Units were ready on Hayato's Field.
**X-Head Cannon** [Level 4 / LIGHT]
[Machine Type / Normal Monster]
[1800 / 1500]
**Y-Dragon Head** [Level 4 / LIGHT]
[Machine Type / Union / Effect]
[1500 / 1600]
**Z-Metal Tank** [Level 4 / LIGHT]
[Machine Type / Union / Effect]
[1500 / 1300]
"The gathered metal hearts will calculate a new possibility leading to the Future! I'll directly Overlay **X-Head Cannon**, **Y-Dragon Head**, and **Z-Metal Tank**!" Hayato raised his hand above his head and gestured. The three-colored Mecha on the Field began to combine and transform, stacking upon each other. "Come forth, my Tamashii, **XYZ-Dragon Cannon**!"
**XYZ-Dragon Cannon** [Level 8 / LIGHT]
[Machine Type / Fusion / Effect]
[2800 / 2600]
With **Z-Metal Tank** as the base, **X-Head Cannon** forming the head, and **Y-Dragon Head** serving as the awkwardly positioned Energy transmission core, **XYZ-Dragon Cannon** made a rare appearance. As soon as it appeared on the Field, it immediately condensed a Laser Sphere, locking onto **Jack's Knight** on Yugi's Field, which was equipped with **Rainbow Kuriboh**.
"I Discard one card from my Hand. I will use **XYZ-Dragon Cannon**'s Effect. Target one card on my opponent's Field and Activate this Effect; Destroy that opponent's card."
Hayato drew a card from his Hand and Discarded it to the Graveyard. It was **Swift Gaia the Fierce Knight**. Because of Yugi's **Card of Demise**, Hayato still had a full five cards in his Hand after Summoning **XYZ-Dragon Cannon**. While rich in Resources, this also meant **Swift Gaia the Fierce Knight** couldn't utilize its Effect at all, becoming a complete Brick.
As the card was placed into the Graveyard Zone of the Duel Disk, **XYZ-Dragon Cannon** on Hayato's Field, having accumulated enough Power, fired fiercely. A beam of Laser rushed towards **Jack's Knight**.
Facing the incoming Attack, **Rainbow Kuriboh** slyly jumped away from **Jack's Knight**, leaving **Jack's Knight**, which was restrained by **Rainbow Kuriboh**'s Effect and unable to move, to face **XYZ-Dragon Cannon**'s Attack directly.
However, the competition of Duel Monsters is not limited to just Monster versus Monster. What truly determines the outcome of the Battle depends on both players.
"You won't Destroy my Monster!" Yugi flipped over a Set Card in his Backrow. "In Chain to **XYZ-Dragon Cannon**'s Effect, the Set Card I Activate is the Quick-Play Spell Card, **Forbidden Chalice**!"
"Until the End Phase, increase **XYZ-Dragon Cannon**'s ATK by 400, and as a cost, its Effect is Negated!"
As Yugi's Set Card was Activated, a golden cup filled with a scarlet, blood-like liquid appeared above **XYZ-Dragon Cannon**'s head on Hayato's Field. As the golden cup gradually tilted, the blood-red liquid seeped into **XYZ-Dragon Cannon**'s mechanical body, causing a series of electric sparks. The Laser beam shot from the mouth of **Y-Dragon Head**, which formed the crotch area, disappeared before hitting **Jack's Knight** due to running out of Power.
**XYZ-Dragon Cannon** [ATK 2800 → 3200]
"Tsk, how troublesome." Vaguely hearing the gasps from Joey Wheeler and others in the Audience Seats, "Its ATK has already surpassed **Blue-Eyes White Dragon**," Hayato frowned slightly, feeling helpless.
Because **XYZ-Dragon Cannon**'s Effect didn't have a Once per turn restriction, Hayato had originally planned to use the five cards in his Hand to snipe and Destroy all of Yugi's cards on the Field one by one, then Direct Attack to bait out Yugi's last card in Hand—though it was likely **Kuriboh**, since **Rainbow Kuriboh**, that spy, had just told him so.
But now, not a single card was Destroyed, and **XYZ-Dragon Cannon**'s Effect was Negated.
However, the Winning Equation Hayato had prepared wasn't just one.
"Normal Summon **W-Wing Catapult**."
Under Yugi's grave expression, Hayato used his Normal Summon for this Turn. A completely blue Flying Vehicle with a groove in the center for placing something appeared on Hayato's Field.
**W-Wing Catapult** [Level 4 / LIGHT]
[Machine Type / Union / Effect]
[1300 / 1500]
Yugi, who was quite familiar with the Deck Hayato used, was wary of **W-Wing Catapult**, but then seemed to remember something and his brows slightly relaxed: "Hayato, are you trying to Summon **VW-Tiger Catapult**? But unfortunately, **V-Tiger Jet** was sent to the Graveyard in the previous Battle."
"Don't underestimate me, Yugi. Reviving a Monster from the Graveyard isn't a difficult thing." Hayato drew a card from his Hand and placed it into the Duel Disk. "I Activate the Spell Card **Call of the Haunted**. If I have a Machine-Type Monster on the Field, Target one Level 4 or lower Machine-Type Monster in my Graveyard."
"Special Summon that Machine-Type Monster with its Effects Negated, and Destroy it and Send it to the Graveyard during the End Phase."
A card popped out of the Duel Disk's Graveyard Zone and was placed onto the Field by Hayato: "Regenerate, **V-Tiger Jet**!"
The yellow tiger-shaped Flying Vehicle, the Partner of **W-Wing Catapult**, regenerated from Hayato's Graveyard. Although it would be sent to the Graveyard during the End Phase, couldn't he just Banish it from Play before then?
Without even needing to hear Hayato's explanation, Yugi already knew the Monster Hayato was about to Summon, which was **VW-Tiger Catapult**. The two blue and yellow Flying Vehicles split their structures and pieced together, completing a much larger mechanical flying wing combination.
**VW-Tiger Catapult** [Level 6 / LIGHT]
[Machine Type / Fusion / Effect]
[2000 / 2100]
Similar to **XYZ-Dragon Cannon**, **VW-Tiger Catapult**'s Effect also didn't have a Once per turn restriction, and the Activation Conditions were the same, requiring discarding a card from the Hand. Hayato still had two cards in his Hand, which could be used to Activate their Effects, but **VW-Tiger Catapult**'s Effect was much more useless compared to **XYZ-Dragon Cannon**'s, merely allowing the change of a Monster's Battle Position.
Looking at the last Set Card in Yugi's Backrow, Hayato hesitated slightly.
If he were to Attack with the two Monsters now, if he was lucky and Yugi didn't have **Kuriboh** in his Hand, he could likely Deplete Yugi's remaining 1400 Life Points. However, if Yugi had Set an Attack Declaration Trap in his Backrow—like the Power of Hano's Sublimity, for example—then the one who would lose would be Hayato himself.
After a brief moment of thought and consideration, Hayato resolutely ordered: "If I don't do this, it really won't work."
"I Banish **XYZ-Dragon Cannon** and **VW-Tiger Catapult** from my Field! Accel Fusion Summon!"
As everyone knows, Accel Synchro Summon is when a Synchro Monster and a Synchro Monster Synchro Summon, so Accel Fusion must be a Fusion Monster and a Fusion Monster... Logically completely correct!
**XYZ-Dragon Cannon** and the newly appeared **VW-Tiger Catapult** immediately executed Hayato's command, dismantling into incredibly fragmented parts and beginning to piece together. The Mobile Firepower and Aerial Fortress combined with each other, and a tall humanoid form quickly took shape!
"Limiter Release, Level 8! Main Bass Booster Control, All Clear! Infinite Power, now released here, rush towards the other side of dimensions! GO! Accel Fusion! COME ON! **VWXYZ-Dragon Catapult Cannon**!!"
After stealing Yusei's lines, Hayato finally went after Yusei's close friend, shamelessly "borrowing" someone else's Summoning chant.
However, Yugi and the others didn't know that Hayato's lines were swiped from someone else. Leaving others aside for now, Kaiba, upon hearing Hayato's long string of technical terms and English in his Summoning chant, his eyes lit up, looking quite interested.
Although his facial muscles were still so stiff they could be used as a cutting board for ribs, Kaiba was probably thinking hard at this moment about what kind of cool and stylish lines he should use next time he Summons his wife, **Blue-Eyes White Dragon**.
And Yugi, looking at the giant robot standing tall behind Hayato, had a grave expression: "**VW to Z**, huh..."
The **VWXYZ** Deck was most active during the Duelist Kingdom. After that, **Ojama** and **Armed Dragon** could occasionally still be seen in Hayato's Deck, but **VWXYZ** rarely appeared.
However, this didn't mean **VWXYZ** wasn't strong enough. On the contrary, the ultimate monster of the **VWXYZ** Deck—**VWXYZ-Dragon Catapult Cannon**—could be said to be quite Powerful in both size and stats.
**VWXYZ-Dragon Catapult Cannon** [Level 8 / LIGHT]
[Machine Type / Fusion / Effect]
[3000 / 2800]
"**VW to Z** is the Decisive Battle Weapon formed by the combination of **XYZ-Dragon Cannon** and **VW-Tiger Catapult**, inheriting the Effects of both Monsters," Hayato said, pointing his hand towards Yugi's last Set Card in the Backrow. "Target one card on the opponent's Field and Banish that card directly!"
"However, because the power has been increased from 'destroy' to 'banish', this Effect can only be used Once per turn by **VW to Z**."
Along with Hayato's Commentary, the tall mechanical humanoid behind him raised the arm composed of **Z-Metal Tank** and shot out an extremely thin red Laser, effortlessly erasing the Set Card in Yugi's Backrow in the blink of an eye.
Before the card was Banished from Play, Hayato also saw Yugi's Set Card. Just as he had guessed earlier, it was indeed **Mirror Force**—the Power of Hano's Sublimity.
Fortunately, Hayato wasn't greedy for "defeating Yugi this Turn" and instead Summoned **VWXYZ-Dragon Catapult Cannon**, cautiously clearing the last Set Card in Yugi's Backrow.
Now, Hayato could feel relieved and confidently launch an Attack against Yugi, whose Backrow was now empty!
"Then, entering my Battle Phase! Use **VW to Z** to Attack **King's Knight** on your Field, Yugi!" Hayato waved his hand and ordered, "Style, Undefeated of the East! Super Overlord Film Bomb!"
The name of the move Hayato shouted was one thing, but **VWXYZ-Dragon Catapult Cannon**'s Attack method was another. After all, it was just a combined machine, not a Super Robot Gundam. **VWXYZ-Dragon Catapult Cannon** couldn't shoot energy waves from its hands out of thin air. Instead, all weapons on its entire body activated simultaneously. Missiles, autocannons, Energy beams, and Lasers instantly engulfed **King's Knight** on Yugi's Field!
"Boom!"
With a loud bang, the Virtual Projection System's Simulation even Recreated the Vibration that the Attack should have caused. The Smoke and Dust stirred up when **King's Knight** was Destroyed even engulfed Yugi's figure.
Drawing a card and adding it to his Hand, Hayato hadn't even played any cards yet, but the people in the Audience Seats couldn't help but recall the brief yet deeply impressive scene from the previous Grouping Match because of Hayato's words.
Mainly, what Hayato just said was exactly the same as what he said back then.
