Chapter 893: A Duel Monster's Performance Isn't the Key Factor Determining Victory or Defeat
Ignoring Keipei's comments, Hayato placed a purple-bordered card on his Duel Disk.
On his Front Row, vines broke through the ground and grew upwards, intertwining to form a giant plant.
Although it was a Plant-Type, and indeed had Insect-Eating Eriocaulaceae from the Eriocaulaceae family blooming on its back in the wind, the plant's true form was a fierce beast with sharp teeth and powerful crawling limbs. It looked very similar to the long-extinct Wanderer Whale.
**Predaplant Ambulobulba** [Level 5/Dark]
[Plant-Type/Fusion/Effect]
[1000/2500]
Seeing the full appearance of the monster Hayato Summoned, Alister, watching from off-field, couldn't help but exclaim, "Predaplant... that's a fitting name. Not only is the name fierce, but its image is also terrifying. But isn't that name a bit too long?"
"Compared to the name, aren't the pineapples and Insect-Eating Eriocaulaceae bigger points of ridicule? Although plants from both families do look similar, they are fundamentally different! While Insect-Eating Eriocaulaceae usually coexists with carnivorous pineapples, the appearance of having plants growing on its back looks way too much like Bulbasaur." Professional rant-er Keipei continued his steady performance.
Hayato said without turning his head, "You don't need to understand the matters of Duel Monsters too clearly."
Looking at **Predaplant Ambulobulba**, Tenma Yexing felt a moment of vigilance, but after seeing its ATK/DEF value, he relaxed again, saying contemptuously, "Huh? I thought it was something important. Turns out it's just a Small Fry monster with only 1000 ATK."
"It even destroys itself at this turn's End Phase. You spent 1000 Life Points just to Summon this trash, Hayato Kobayashi?"
"Haven't you heard that the pinker you dress, the harder you hit? Duel Monsters follow the same principle. Sometimes, the weaker the ATK, the more danger they pose," Hayato said, spreading his hands. "Although not as extreme as some 0 ATK/0 DEF Monsters, any Monster Summoned with Cup Noodles is worth being wary of."
Tenma Yexing was momentarily stunned, not understanding what "Cup Noodles" meant. But seeing Hayato Send the **Instant Fusion** Card to the Graveyard, he understood. The **Instant Fusion** Card, with card art depicting a cup of Cup Noodles printed with the Fusion symbol, was what Hayato meant by "Cup Noodles". He had to admit, it was quite apt.
"A **Predaplant Ambulobulba** Summoned by **Instant Fusion** is treated as a Fusion Summon. And when **Predaplant Ambulobulba** is successfully Fusion Summoned, I can add one Predaplant Monster or one Predaplant Spell/Trap Card from my Deck or Graveyard to my Hand."
"The card I add to my hand is this one, **Predaplant Ophrys Scorpio**."
After searching for the card and adding it to his hand, although there was now a Fusion Monster on the Field, Hayato's hand still remained at six cards. He drew a Spell Card and played it: "Next is this Quick-Play Spell Card, **Predaplanetation**. I reveal any number of 'Predaplant' cards from my hand to my opponent. I can activate this card by targeting face-up monsters on my Opponent's Field equal to the number of cards revealed."
"I reveal **Predaplant Ophrys Scorpio** and **Predaplant Drosophyllum Hydra** from my hand, and target your **Suppression Pluto** and **Despair Uranus** on your Field. I place one Predator Counter on each of those two monsters."
Two vines suddenly shot out from the card Hayato activated, spreading in an instant to Tenma Yexing's Field and wrapping around his two monsters. Just as Tenma Yexing was getting nervous, he found that his two monsters seemed like they weren't greatly influenced.
Their effects weren't negated, they weren't destroyed or banished, their ATK/DEF didn't decrease, and even their type didn't change.
So, what exactly was the use of that Predator Counter? Just as Tenma Yexing was searching for where his monsters had changed, he heard Hayato continue:
"Plants are greedy, constantly craving nourishment. And the fierce Predaplants will view everything before them as nourishment to plunder and absorb, allowing themselves to undergo evolution."
Looking maliciously at the two monsters on Tenma Yexing's Field, Hayato pointed to his **Predaplant Ambulobulba** on his Field. "**Predaplant Ambulobulba's** second effect activates! Activate it by targeting one monster on my own Field. I Tribute that monster to Special Summon a Predaplant Monster from my Deck."
Tenma Yexing glanced at Hayato's Field. "You're going to Tribute your monster with the long name? Heh heh, you're just squandering the monster you got for 1000 Life Points. You should have kept more Life Points so I could torment you longer."
"Sorry, but my Life Points are mine to use however I want, it has nothing to do with you." Hayato looked at Tenma Yexing, who seemed to be showing an arrogant expression, and put on a surprised expression. "Oh dear, I almost forgot. Besides the monsters on my Field, I can actually Tribute monsters on my Opponent's Field that have Predator Counters on them too~"
"Nani!?" Tenma Yexing heard Hayato's words. He fundamentally didn't believe that Hayato had actually forgotten his monster's effect. This guy definitely did it on purpose, saving the effect until the end and saying it in one go just to mess with his mindset! "Is that how the Predator Counter is used?"
"Which one should I choose, which one should I choose?" Humming a strange tune, Hayato pointed at **Despair Uranus**. "You're the one! That **Despair Uranus**, what class are you? Sphere Mode just like Ra?"
"I Tribute **Despair Uranus**, and then I Special Summon **Predaplant Banksiogre** from my Deck!"
Beside **Predaplant Ambulobulba**, another plant quickly grew out. Like **Predaplant Ambulobulba**, although it carried the "Plant-Type" name, **Predaplant Banksiogre's** appearance resembled an ancient Pterodactyl, while also fitting the appearance of the "Pitcher Plant", arguably the most famous Predaplant.
**Predaplant Banksiogre** [Level 3/Dark]
[Plant-Type/Effect]
[300/2100]
"You Tributed my **Despair Uranus** just to Summon that kind of Small Fry monster with only 300 ATK?" Tenma Yexing was very angry. It wasn't just because Hayato brought out a monster of that caliber, fundamentally looking down on him, but also because his incredibly strong and invincible **Despair Uranus** was exchanged for just a Small Fry.
Hearing that his opponent was still only looking at the monster's ATK and not its other abilities, Hayato also said helplessly, "You really are stubborn, aren't you? I mean, a Duel Monster's performance isn't the key factor determining victory or defeat. What's important isn't ATK, but the effect."
"**Predaplant Banksiogre's** second effect: Once Per Turn, you can activate it by targeting one monster on your Opponent's Field with a Level less than or equal to this card's Level. You gain control of that monster until the End Phase."
As Hayato spoke, the **Predaplant Banksiogre** on his Field opened its massive mouth. The mere movement of inhaling stirred up a gale.
But Tenma Yexing heard Hayato's words and laughed, saying contemptuously, "Idiot, can't you remember your own monster's effect? That monster with an effect similar to **Change of Heart** only has Level 3, but the Level of my **Suppression Pluto** on my Field is as high as 8, huh!?"
Casually glancing at his only remaining **Suppression Pluto** on his Field, Tenma Yexing suddenly discovered that his **Suppression Pluto's** Level had somehow abruptly become Level 1!?
"Heh heh, Predator Counters aren't just for show. Monsters with Level 2 or higher that have Predator Counters placed on them will have their Level forcibly become Level 1, becoming material for the Predaplants." Hayato waved his hand. "Your monster is pretty good, but the next moment, it's mine! Go, **Predaplant Banksiogre**!"
Although **Suppression Pluto** put up a strong resistance, under the use of the Predator Counters wrapped around its body, it fundamentally couldn't resist the airflow released by **Predaplant Banksiogre** and was forcibly dragged onto Hayato's Field, causing Tenma Yexing's Field to become completely empty in an instant!
Having his monster NTR'd by Hayato right in front of him, Tenma Yexing was already extremely angry. But the next moment, Hayato surprisingly said quite skillfully, "Next, I activate **Suppression Pluto's** effect. Once per Turn, I declare one card name. If my opponent has the declared card in their hand, I can obtain control of one card on my Opponent's Field."
"Wait, wait a moment!" Tenma Yexing's eyes widened as he looked at Hayato. "That monster's effect, why are you using it so easily? Why are you so skilled at it!"
*He* was the master of **Suppression Pluto**, wasn't he? He was clearly using this monster for the first time in a Duel, so why wasn't *he* the first person to use its effect, but Hayato Kobayashi opposite him instead! And why did he look so familiar with **Suppression Pluto**!
Hayato didn't know what Tenma Yexing was thinking wildly about. He picked his ear. "Why are you shouting so loudly? Doesn't this card have its effect written very clearly? Your card doesn't have that weird restriction where only people who understand specific text can use the effect."
"Besides, who said this is your monster? This is clearly my monster, isn't it?"
Looking at Hayato, the 'NTR Enthusiast' Kobayashi, Tenma Yexing felt his fist clench. What was even more infuriating was that Hayato continued, "Although the ability to successfully use the effect by guessing the hand correctly sounds useless, what you can't deny is that just now, a certain someone used **Painful Choice** to make me personally select a card to add to your hand, and you didn't play it last turn."
"The Card Name I Declare is, **Laval Cannoneer**."
There wasn't even a need to confirm. That card was practically a revealed card in Tenma Yexing's Hand, allowing **Suppression Pluto's** effect to successfully resolve. Hayato could freely select one card on Tenma Yexing's Field to take control of. This effect could not only obtain control of Monster Cards, but also Spell/Trap Cards that were already activated or Set, with no exception.
Therefore, Hayato decisively selected **Nightmare's Mirage** on Tenma Yexing's Field, which was already in an activated state. "Next Turn, you definitely wouldn't want to discard the hand you finally drew, right? I'm kind-hearted and can't stand to see others suffer, so I'll just take your **Nightmare's Mirage**. Go, **Suppression Pluto**, Dark Water!"
Watching his monster, **Suppression Pluto**, help Hayato NTR another one of his cards under Hayato's nonsensical attack name, Tenma Yexing's expression twisted. He gnashed his teeth and said, "Onore, Hayato Kobayashi!"
But his curse couldn't change anything. Only to see **Nightmare's Mirage** transfer to Hayato's Field under **Suppression Pluto's** power. Tenma Yexing's own Field was left with just a single Set Card.
Even if it's Hayato Kobayashi, first taking my monster to Tribute, and then stealing two cards, this should be his limit, right?
Just as Tenma Yexing was thinking this, Hayato took out another card and said, "I haven't performed a Normal Summon this Turn, have I? I Tribute **Suppression Pluto** on my Field to Tribute Summon."
"Neptune, who holds infinite potential but had his Future blocked by a flying bird, Step on Pluto and declare who is the strongest planet card!"
"**The Tyrant Neptune**!"
The vines on the pitch-black Pluto loosened, but **Suppression Pluto** no longer had the remaining strength to return to its original owner's Field. Stepped on by a heavy foot, it couldn't even turn over before being killed by the monster on its body, which was like a nightmare and a tyrant, as it swung its scythe.
The monster with flames burning in its eyes appeared.
**The Tyrant Neptune** [Level 10/Water]
[Reptile-Type/Effect]
[?/ ? → 2600/2000]
"**The Tyrant Neptune**? You actually put that card in your Deck?" Tenma Yexing glanced at Hayato, recalling what Hayato had said before the Duel about the so-called "evolutionary strongest dragon". As expected, that was just bluffing.
"To deal with you, this card is probably better. But I'm not entirely sure if you know this card's effect, so I'll repeat it first." Hayato glanced at the **The Tyrant Neptune** on his Field that he had obtained from Kobayashi Hiroyuki. Since Tenma Yexing had taken action against Kobayashi Hiroyuki, As expected, he still had to use Kobayashi Hiroyuki's cards for retaliation.
"Although it's Level 10, **The Tyrant Neptune** can be Tribute Summoned by Tributing just one monster. Its ATK/DEF will increase by the total value of the original ATK/DEF of the monster Tributed for its Tribute Summon. Furthermore, when it is successfully Tribute Summoned, it can obtain everything from one Tribute, whether it's the Card Name or the Effect."
Under Tenma Yexing's gaze, **The Tyrant Neptune's** Card Name changed, surprisingly, it became **Suppression Pluto**.
"**Suppression Pluto's** Effect doesn't have a Once Per Turn restriction on its Card Name. Therefore, **The Tyrant Neptune**, which obtained its Card Name and Effect, activates its Effect. Declare one Card Name. If the opponent has the declared card in their Hand, obtain control of one card on the Opponent's Field. I Declare **Laval Cannoneer** again."
"That Set Card of yours, bring it over to me!"
Hearing that Hayato had surprisingly used **Suppression Pluto's** Effect again, and that neither the first nor the second time was by himself, Tenma Yexing was filled with grief and indignation. For some reason, he had a feeling that his emerald green hair was becoming even more vibrant.

Tenma Yexing was momentarily stunned, not understanding what "Cup Noodles" meant. But seeing Hayato Send the **Instant Fusion** Card to the Graveyard, he understood. The **Instant Fusion** Card, with card art depicting a cup of Cup Noodles printed with the Fusion symbol, was what Hayato meant by "Cup Noodles". He had to admit, it was quite apt.
"A **Predaplant Ambulobulba** Summoned by **Instant Fusion** is treated as a Fusion Summon. And when **Predaplant Ambulobulba** is successfully Fusion Summoned, I can add one Predaplant Monster or one Predaplant Spell/Trap Card from my Deck or Graveyard to my Hand."
