Chapter 527: Ancient Antique from a Thousand Years Ago Steals Others' Results
Within the illusory sky projected onto the dome of Kaiba Dome, the clouds previously torn apart by Obelisk the Tormentor gathered once more. Unlike the somewhat gloomy clouds before, the clouds gathering this time were entirely dark storm clouds.
A few streaks of yellow lightning flashed within the storm clouds pressing down on the ground like a fortress. Noticing the faintly visible phantom, Kaiba's lips curved into a smile: "You really didn't disappoint me, Yugi!"
Yugi raised a Card from his Hand above his head. Amidst the flashing lightning, Yugi shouted the true name of the Card in his Hand—
"When the thunder of the heavens brings chaos, the ancient Spellbook is bound in chains, its power is said to be infinite!"
"Respond to my order and descent, Kami!"
"Slifer the Sky Dragon!!"
"Uwooooh!!!"
Slifer the Sky Dragon [10☆/Divine-Beast]
[Divine-Beast Type/Effect]
[?/?]
"Alright! Yugi has Summoned Slifer the Sky Dragon! With this, Kaiba isn't the only one with a God Card on the Field anymore!"
Beside Hayato, Joey Wheeler cheered excitedly because Yugi had Summoned Slifer the Sky Dragon. At the same time, he heard voices coming from behind him:
"Yosh, we made it!"
"He's already Summoned a God."
"At least we weren't too late."
"Yugi!"
Turning around, Tristan, Marik, Ishizu, and Téa had also arrived at Kaiba Dome. They arrived at a good time, having only missed the first three Turns, and at least saw the entire process of Yugi Summoning Slifer the Sky Dragon this Turn.
Looking at Slifer the Sky Dragon, whose massive dragon head emerged from the storm clouds above, even though they had witnessed the entire process, it didn't mean everyone understood exactly how Yugi had Summoned Slifer the Sky Dragon.
Joey Wheeler noticed the gazes of the people who had arrived a step late were directed at him, and quickly shook his head, indicating that he didn't actually know what was going on either, after all, he was Joey Wheeler.
However, Yugi on the Field took the initiative to explain his play just now.
"Chaining to your Ultimate Fusion, Kaiba, I just Activated this Quick-Play Spell Card, Swift Summon, from my Hand. Because of its Effect, I can Normal Summon a Monster that is Level 10 during either player's Main Phase or Battle Phase."
In a very Yugi style, the smoke kicked up by Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon's light blast hitting the ground slightly dispersed, revealing the Swift Summon Card Yugi Activated from his Hand. "Luckily, it was during my Turn, so I could Activate the Quick-Play Spell Card directly from my Hand. How lucky, Kaiba."
Looking at Yugi on the Field holding a Card whose Effect was so coincidental it was practically Card Printing on the spot, let alone Kaiba who was being provoked with sarcasm, even Hayato on the side felt like ranting a bit.
Although the Swift Summon Card didn't mention "God" anywhere except for the word "God" in its name, it was indeed a Support Card for the Three Egyptian Gods Series. Hayato also had one.
However, Hayato's Card was one he drew while trying to draw Horakhty, the Creator of Light, while Yugi's Card was clearly printed. He only got Slifer the Sky Dragon back a few Turns ago and he's already printing Cards? That's so you, Yugi.
"Hmph, I see. You used the Effect of Swift Summon to Tribute the three Cards on your Field that were targeted for Destruction by Ultimate Fusion's Effect? You truly are a troublesome yet exciting Opponent, Yugi!"
Kaiba's mindset was quite good. Although Slifer the Sky Dragon's appearance was in a way he didn't expect, the result of a "God" appearing was enough. He was somewhat satisfied with the Strength Yugi displayed; the only flaw was...
Slifer the Sky Dragon [ATK0]
"Although you Summoned Slifer the Sky Dragon to fight me with your full power, unlike Obelisk, Slifer the Sky Dragon's ATK isn't a fixed value."
Kaiba said with a sneer, "With an empty Hand, you don't even have the ability to Activate any Cards with effects that replenish your Hand. Summoning Slifer the Sky Dragon but being unable to unleash its power is truly disappointing, Yugi!"
"Heh heh, sore wa dou kana, Kaiba."
Yugi drew the Set Card in his Spell & Trap Zone and showed it to Kaiba: "Since I made the decision to Summon Slifer the Sky Dragon, it's naturally because I have a way to increase its ATK."
"The Card I Set in my Spell/Trap Zone is Graceful Charity. I Activate it! Both players draw until they have six Cards in their Hand!"
"Nani?!"
[Yugi: Hand 0 → 6]
[Kaiba: Hand 0 → 6]
As Yugi drew six Cards, Kaiba, though slightly surprised, also immediately drew six Cards. And as Yugi's Hand increased, the lightning surrounding his Slifer the Sky Dragon on the Field also became thicker.
Slifer the Sky Dragon [ATK0 → 6000]
Seeing the increase in Slifer the Sky Dragon's ATK, Dark Yugi couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief, saying to Yugi Mutou inside the Millennium Puzzle: 'Thank goodness for you, aibo.'
In the Turn before, when Kaiba used Negate Attack to skip Yugi's Battle Phase, Dark Yugi had Graceful Charity in his Hand and hesitated whether to Activate it during Main Phase 2, but Yugi Mutou advised him not to use it.
In the next Turn, Kaiba actually used Graceful Charity himself, and after Summoning Obelisk the Tormentor, he even used Power Balance to halve Yugi's Hand to replenish his own.
It was also fortunate that Kaiba used that Power Balance at that time, otherwise, Dark Yugi could completely imagine what kind of situation would occur if Kaiba were to Attack Obelisk the Tormentor with Slifer the Sky Dragon.
If he were to Attack Kaiba with six Cards in Hand, the Effect of Power Balance would cause him to directly Discard three Cards from his Hand, resulting in Slifer the Sky Dragon's ATK decreasing. The "God" unaffected by Traps would thus fall into the Trap Kaiba had laid.
"Enter my Battle Phase! Here I come, Slifer!" Yugi glanced at the Cards in his Hand and directly declared his Battle Phase, completely disregarding the Set Card in Kaiba's Spell/Trap Zone. "Attack Obelisk the Tormentor!"
"Superconductive Wave - Thunder Force!"
Not using the upper mouth, which is most commonly used for "Thunder Force," Slifer the Sky Dragon uses its lower mouth when performing a formal Attack. Lightning converged into its mouth, transforming into a pillar of light like heavenly thunder that fell, aiming directly at Obelisk on Kaiba's Field!
Although it is the God of Destruction, under such a powerful Attack like a divine wrath, even Obelisk cannot escape the fate of being destroyed!
The blue giant god raised its fist and swung it down towards the falling lightning, attempting to resist it. But mere will could not have the slightest impact on the ATK clearly written in the Duel Monsters Rules. The iron fist of the giant god, which was invincible in the past, now showed the same effect it would normally have on its targets, gradually cracking and shattering!
In the Spectator Area, Tristan and Téa looked at Yugi's Slifer the Sky Dragon gaining the upper hand and couldn't help but beam with joy: "Yosh, the advantage is on Yugi's side!"
Honda wanted to share this joy with Joey Wheeler, but when he turned his head, he saw that neither Hayato, Ishizu, Marik, nor Joey Wheeler showed any happy expression because of Yugi's temporary advantage.
"With this, it should be Yugi's victory, right?" Tristan's excitement was slightly dampened, and he spoke with some uncertainty. Joey Wheeler beside him heard this and shook his head: "I'm not as naive as you think, Tristan."
The Joey Wheeler of the past had grown and matured somewhat after so many Duels. "If Yugi really had the advantage, do you think that guy Kaiba would still have that expression on his face?"
Hearing Joey Wheeler say this, Tristan and Téa couldn't help but look towards Kaiba.
Kaiba's face showed neither sorrow nor joy. In the clash of Gods, his Obelisk the Tormentor was suppressed by Slifer the Sky Dragon and fell into a disadvantage, but Kaiba just watched in silence.
Suddenly, he spoke: "Indeed, relying solely on the power of God Cards, I have no possibility of defeating you, Yugi."
As if reaching a conclusion, or perhaps lamenting something, Kaiba pressed the button to Activate Set Card: "In the countless Duels until now, I have discovered that the power of God Cards from the past, while strong, is limited. The more one relies on these things of the past to create the future, the more one will lead themselves to a losing ending."
The Card in Kaiba's Spell/Trap Zone opened. The moment Dark Yugi saw the Card Art of that Card, his heart tightened as if it were being squeezed, his pupils constricted, and the voice of Yugi Mutou came from within the Millennium Puzzle: 'That Card is!'
The Card Art of that Card depicted a Pyramid emitting radiance. Although it should have been a Card filled with the radiance of hope, at this moment it gave off a suffocating sense of despair!
"Kaiba, you—"
Yugi spoke, wanting to stop Kaiba's next move, because he suddenly realized that he and aibo had come to Duel Kaiba to stop the vision-like illusion from before, but instead, they were moving step by step towards that predicted future!
"I don't need God Cards anymore, Yugi!" Kaiba's Hand shot up and pointed towards the sky. "My future will be created by my own hands! For victory, I am willing to give up Obelisk the Tormentor!"
"Activate Continuous Trap Card, Pyramid of Light!"
"Bury the God from the past, and with this, open up my future!"
From the Set Card that opened in Kaiba's Spell/Trap Zone, a pillar of blue light shot up into the sky, hit the dome of Kaiba Dome which was projected to look like the sky, and then reflected, casting down four walls of light from above. Besides surrounding Yugi and Kaiba, it also separated the two Gods who were just fighting from the Field!
"Cough!!"
As the four triangular light walls formed a blue Pyramid, Dark Yugi heard Yugi Mutou's voice filled with pain coming from the Millennium Puzzle.
"Aibo!" More concerned about Yugi Mutou's condition than the abnormal situation of the two God Cards being isolated, Dark Yugi saw sparks inexplicably start flashing on the Millennium Puzzle and Yugi Mutou's figure turn into a phantom beside him. Dark Yugi anxiously called out to his friend.
"The... The Other Me!"
A suction force appeared on the Millennium Puzzle, targeting Yugi Mutou's soul right beside Dark Yugi. Only managing to call out to the other party once, Yugi Mutou couldn't resist this power and turned into golden radiance, being pulled into the Millennium Puzzle!
"Aibo!"
"Aibo!"
The abnormality that appeared on the Millennium Puzzle after Kaiba Activated Pyramid of Light made Dark Yugi very anxious. He called out again to the friend who had disappeared from his side, but the two, who could always connect heart-to-heart instantly in the past, now received no response no matter how Dark Yugi called out, like a stone sinking into the sea.
"Aibo, I can't hear your voice anymore, there's no echo from the Millennium Puzzle." Holding the Millennium Puzzle, which now felt like a truly ordinary golden pendant with no abnormalities whatsoever, Yugi couldn't get a response, and anger gradually rose in his heart. "What... What happened!"
"Hmph, although it's a Trap Card, Pyramid of Light's ability to Banish God Cards is independent of the Duel Monsters Rules. Even a God cannot break free from this power." Kaiba wasn't concerned about what was happening to Yugi at the moment. With his arms crossed over his chest, he looked at the furious Yugi. "Now, let us engage in battle once more with the power of our own Monsters, Yugi!"
"Hmph hmph, heh heh, heh hahahaha!!"
Kaiba's answer, completely off-topic and not on the same wavelength as him, made Yugi's already bad mood even more irritated. He looked at Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon on Kaiba's Field and Dark Magician on his own Field, changed Dark Magician to Defense Position, and then drew three Cards and Set them: "Tsk, in that case, I can only see Aibo again by defeating you, Kaiba."
"Change Dark Magician to Defense Position. I Set three Cards. End Turn."
[Yugi: 1600 LP, Hand 3]
[Dark Magician] [ATK2500 → DEF2100]
[Set Card] X3
"My Turn. The Card Pyramid of Light was originally something I specifically prepared for Hayato Kobayashi, but using it in a Duel against you isn't a waste. Draw!" Kaiba's finger rested on his Deck, and he sharply drew a Card. Looking at the Card he drew, Kaiba's lips curved into a smile. "Then next, I'll let you witness another Card I've prepared that surpasses the Gods, Yugi!"
"I Tribute Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon on my Field, and from my Hand—"
"That troublesome Card, I can't let you Summon it..."
Kaiba hadn't finished speaking when a third person's voice suddenly echoed within this "Pyramid of Light" where only Kaiba and Yugi were present.
Kaiba hadn't even had time to see who had interrupted him when he was suddenly grabbed by the neck and lifted by a Hand.
"Ki... Kisama!"
Dark Yugi looked at the muscular man who suddenly appeared in this "Pyramid of Light" and lifted Kaiba, just as seen in the vision Yugi Mutou had witnessed before. He was on high alert.
The man who had suddenly attacked Kaiba and stopped him from Summoning the Card in his Hand laughed wildly: "Heh hahahaha, I sense the aura of a God, such powerful power!"
"I, Anubis, have returned!"
Within the illusory sky projected onto the dome of Kaiba Dome, the clouds previously torn apart by Obelisk the Tormentor gathered once more. Unlike the somewhat gloomy clouds before, the clouds gathering this time were entirely dark storm clouds.
A few streaks of yellow lightning flashed within the storm clouds pressing down on the ground like a fortress. Noticing the faintly visible phantom, Kaiba's lips curved into a smile: "You really didn't disappoint me, Yugi!"
