Chapter 433: Betting on the World War
Curipo!
Chestnut Ball, who is known as a loyal hero, jumped out onto the field at the critical moment. His small figure expanded rapidly and became huge like an indestructible shield that blocked all the vines shot by Yubel.
"Very good!" Keppei couldn't help but cheer, "Even Yubel's attacks were blocked! Yu Xuan's duel was really flawless, no wonder even my brother..."
When the words came to my lips, I suddenly realized something was wrong. He quickly turned to look at Kaiba, and sure enough, he saw Kaiba smiling and approving for a second, but when he said this, his smile immediately disappeared and his face turned serious.
"Have you blocked Yubel's attack?" the judge said coldly, "Then the battle phase is over. But it would be too optimistic to think that we have survived this way."
He showed another card in his hand.
"Activate the magic card - Lightning Strike!"
Keppei was shocked: "Lightning strike. That's a tournament ban card!"
Lightning Strike is one of the few cards that, like Chaos Emperor Dragon, is explicitly banned in the competition in the anime. However, the prohibition of lightning strikes was mentioned during the DM period. Also banned at that time were cards that "can directly inflict effect damage to duelists at no cost." From this, we can also see that although there are no banned cards in the animation, they are not banned at all. In reality, even the prohibition standards at the same time are different.
However, nowadays, cards that "give damage" have been proven to have mediocre actual combat effects, and have been lifted in the GX era. This is a violent table-turning lightning strike, and the banned card was naturally not released.
It stands to reason that using banned cards to participate in the competition should be deprived of the qualification. In this duel city, the referee should already rule the defeat.
But everyone also knew at this time that this was no longer as simple as the outcome of the game. This duel was already a bet on the future fate of the world. There can be no prohibitions or restrictions on gambling on life cards.
The heavy leaden clouds are like a precursor to the wrath of the gods. The dark clouds are rolling with lightning and thunder, like thousands of thunder snakes dancing wildly in the clouds, intertwining into an airtight power grid.
The thunder pierced the sky, like the wrathful whip of a god, and struck the earth with destructive power. Dazzling brilliance illuminated the world, and thunder came one after another, tearing the air like a sharp sword and penetrating down.
Lightning strikes, destroying all monsters on the opponent's field. It's simple and crude, but it contains the ultimate power, sweeping the entire place in an instant. Both the Chaos Warriors and the Dragon Warriors were annihilated in the lightning.
"Hey, it's so despicable to use a banned card!" Keppei couldn't help shouting, "You're disqualified from the competition!"
The judge's face remained calm as usual. Obviously, he didn't care about the competition at first. After all, for a demon who wanted to destroy the world, a false name was meaningless. The only things that need to be followed in a dark duel are the rules of the duel itself, and that's all.
"It doesn't matter." You Xuan was calm, "This duel is about the future of the world, so it is natural for both sides to use all means."
"Oh? You can still be so calm. Does that mean, even so, do you still have the composure to win?"
You Xuan was noncommittal.
The judge pondered for two seconds.
"You know, we don't have to fight." He narrowed his eyes and looked at You Xuan, "Although I still can't see clearly where you are from, I think the current human world is not too different from you. Big connection, right?”
You Xuan: "."
The lazy snake probably felt that this person was probably not as sinister as a serious duelist, and that he was probably some kind of evil monster or dark being residing in this young man's body. They may not necessarily have a reason to be hostile, and there may be opportunities to win over.
But You Xuan was speechless for a moment.
No, you just expelled me from my membership with just a few words?
It's simply slander. There is no other duelist as upright as himself in this world.
"Darkness has been spreading from the moment humans gained wisdom." The judge said lightly, "I have existed for endless years, and what I have seen is far beyond ordinary people's imagination.
Because of this, I was able to witness this firsthand.
The destruction of the once powerful Atlantis empire, and then the birth of a new civilization that has developed to this day
Over the endless years, groups of people have changed, different regions, different tribes, different cultures and different roots. But all human beings are not surprised. They are forever repeating the cycle of war, hatred and plunder, and constantly hurting each other.
What I bring is the darkness they have created with their own hands, and it is destiny. Even if you stop me, new manifestations of darkness will still appear, and this chain of hatred will continue forever. "
"Is it like the hatred of those Doma swordsmen?" You Xuan said lightly.
The judge frowned slightly.
You Xuan didn't elaborate, but his meaning was made very clear.
Whether in the past or now, Doma Swordsmen regard loyalty to the organization as the ultimate meaning of life, and it is the never-ending hatred that drives them to fight.
But ironically, their hatred is sown by the very organizations they are loyal to. The tragedy they experienced and the darkness in their hearts were all caused by Oliha Gang behind the scenes.
If the lives of swordsmen are like this, who can tell how much hatred and darkness in history was created by this person?
"Indeed, sometimes in human history I am not just a spectator." The adjudicator admitted frankly. "Sometimes I also participate in it, but the role I play is nothing more than a gentle nudge behind someone.
If humans did not have darkness and evil thoughts in their hearts, they would not have evolved to where they are today. "
"That's what you say." You Xuan chuckled.
Referring to the life changes of the Three Musketeers of Dorma, you call that "a gentle push", right?
Okay, you are invincible, and everything you say is right.
"Well, it's a pity that we can't reach an agreement." The Judge said in a deep voice, "At least as a duelist, you do have extraordinary strength. Maybe we don't need to stand on opposite sides.
But since you insist on this choice, don't think that I am afraid of you."
He waved his hand.
"Then set another card to the backfield."
As he said this, a burst of golden light burst out from the backfield, and a group of strange shadows rose from the ground, like a lotus blooming from the abyss.
"When the 'Continuous Magic' was activated, I discarded the 'Sacrifice Lotus' from my hand." The Judge said coldly, "When the Sacrifice Lotus is in the graveyard during the end phase of your turn, it can be special summoned to the field in attack mode." (Original effect)
In the animation, this card is the golden partner of the combination with Yubel. But after the card was made real, the restriction of "this effect can only be activated when there is no magic trap in the back field" was added, which made it far less useful than the original version.
Of course, no one could have imagined that although this card was castrated when it was made real, K-Company actually gave this flower a new vest after 20 years, and it was a Yubel exclusive auxiliary card, and its strength was instantly more than one dimension stronger than the original.
"Then there is the effect of 'Yubel'. If Yubel does not sacrifice a monster at the end of the turn, it must be destroyed.
Therefore, sacrifice 'Sacrifice Lotus' to keep Yubel on the field."
The Sacrifice Lotus disintegrated and dissipated under the golden light, and energy poured into Yubel's body to keep it on the field.
"The turn is over."
