Chapter 415 Great power comes with risks
True Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon, summon!
"True Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon attacks 'Chaos Warrior: Messenger of the Opening'!" Kaiba shouted, "Ultimate Explosive Gale Bullet!!!"

The three mouths of the Ultimate Dragon opened at the same time, and white light was like a torrent of destruction.

"Then activate the cover card at this moment." You Xuan said, "Trap Card 'Sacrificial Treasure Card'.

If the total attack power of all face-up attack position monsters on your field is lower than the lowest attack power monster on your opponent's field, draw two cards from your deck. However, during the turn this card is activated, you cannot summon monsters in any form or change the position of monsters. "(Original effect)

The effect of this card after it is realized is basically the same, with the only restriction that you need to have at least two monsters on the field. However, its practicality is greatly reduced.

"You only have 'True Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon' on the field, so the Ultimate Dragon is the monster with the lowest attack power. The attack power of the pioneer is lower than that of the Ultimate Dragon."

You Xuan draws cards from the deck.

"So I draw two cards."

The Ultimate Dragon's attack swept in, and the terrifying impact was so powerful that even the Chaos Warrior was powerless to resist. His shield only lasted half a second before it shattered in the white light, and then he was swallowed by the light and left the stage.

[You Xuan, LP 4000 → LP 2500]

You Xuan raised his arms to block in front of him, and the incandescent energy and shock waves rolled over him domineeringly.

"As expected of President Kaiba, he's not that easy to stop."

"That's right!" Judai thought of something, "A true Ultimate Dragon can attack three times in one round, so that means..."

The venue was cleared once again, and You Xuan had to face two consecutive attacks from the True Ultimate Dragon!

Even the invincible Kuritama could only block one attack and was powerless in the face of the might of the Ultimate Dragon.

Kaiba waved his hand.

After his evolution, he has even surpassed that small monster, Kuritama!
"Is this the only Duelist you can be? Is this the limit?"

The seahorse raised his head and shouted.

"True Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon's direct attack! Ultimate Exploding Wind Bullet, second consecutive attack!"

The devastating impact and the flashing light in the white dragon's mouth seemed to be announcing the final outcome of the battle.

You Xuan showed a card.

"Then the effect of 'Kite Robot'," You Xuan said, "discard this card from your hand to make the battle damage of a direct attack become 0."

The invincible kite appeared on the field, and its translucent body turned into a barrier blocking the front. Even the shock wave from the Ultimate Dragon could not shake it at all.

"Then the third combo!" Kaiba shouted.

"Kite Robot activates its second effect from the Graveyard." You Xuan said, "While this card exists in the Graveyard, it only has one chance to reduce the battle damage of a direct attack to 0." (Original effect)

One card can block two attacks. What is the value of this artifact?
"Heh, you managed to hold on by relying on continuous defense." Kaiba sneered.

"It's not just defense, President. Defense itself is a way of attacking." You Xuan also smiled, "I haven't forgotten the side effects of the True Ultimate Dragon."

"Hmph↓." Kaiba said lightly, "The effect of the True Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon's continuous attack can only be used once in a duel. And at the end of the battle after using this effect, the True Ultimate Dragon itself must be destroyed." (Original effect)

After saying that, the True Ultimate Dragon was covered in white light and gradually turned into countless white light spots that slowly dissipated from the field.

The kite-bot killed the Ultimate Dragon alone, I can brag about this for the rest of my life.

"Give me a card, and the turn is over." Kaiba said.

"My turn, draw a card."

You Xuan took a look at the card he drew and then showed it directly.

"Magic Card 'Pot of Greed', draw two cards from your deck."

He added two cards to his hand, and then he directly took one of them.

"Summon 'Magic Warrior Destroyer'!"

[Magic Warrior Destroyer, Attack Power 1600]

A warrior in red armor followed the summons and landed on the field, holding a long sword and a shield in his hands. The magic indicator light on the shield lit up as soon as he landed. Kaiba narrowed his eyes slightly.

This monster just happens to be "that guy".

Red Armor was the monster in Atum's deck back then, and is well-known for contributing to the famous scene of "Berserker's Seven Consecutive Attacks". It can be said to be the psychological shadow of the insect Feather Moth.

It seems like a coincidence, but the monsters used by You Xuan and the tactics he chose seem to have many similarities with the guy in Kaiba's memory.

"When the Magic Warrior is successfully summoned, a magic counter is placed, and the attack power increases by 300 points." You Xuan said, "However, I will immediately remove this magic counter and activate its second effect.

Magic Warrior Destroyer can destroy any Magic or Trap Card on the field by removing its own Magic Counter.

Youxuan pointed to Kaiba's backcourt, which seemed to be the only cover card that could serve as his defense now.

"Destroy that Gefuka."

The magic warrior swung his sword and slashed, and the crescent-shaped magical sword energy was stimulated towards Kaiba's backcourt.

"Activate the Gaka."

Kaiba directly activated the locked cover card, which was activated before the magic swordsman's sword energy swept through it.

"Trap Card 'Messenger of Peace'. Monsters cannot be destroyed by battle during this turn, and the battle damage taken by your allies is reduced to 0."

Several blue-robed messengers appeared on his field, and as they chanted spells, they released transparent shields, forming a hemispherical cover to protect him.

The surging sword energy cut the trap in two, but it was unable to stop the effect from being activated.

You Xuan: "Then I will cover two cards and the turn is over."

The people outside the venue were so shocked that they dared not even breathe.

"Even if we fail to kill the real Ultimate Dragon, we have already arranged a defensive backup plan in advance." Marufuji Ryo pondered, "But now the situation has turned into a favorable situation for Youxuan."

"That's hard to say." Judai continued to be excited, "The next time you draw a card, the world might change because of this. Isn't this the charm of duels?"

".Too."

Marufuji nodded.

For these two people, this is just the beginning.

"My turn, draw a card!"

Kaiba waved his hand.

"Gaifu a card.

Then activate the magic card 'Life-Destroying Treasure Card'. Draw cards from your deck until you have five cards in your hand.

The president's signature card replenishing weapon instantly replenishes five cards of ammunition.

"However, during the preparation phase of your fifth turn after activation, all cards in your hand must be discarded."

You Xuan shrugged.

It is true that great power comes with risks.

But to be honest, this side effect did occur in the original work, but only once, in the theatrical version of Pyramid of Light.

It was also the performance of that movie that resolved the controversy over the effect handling of this card's animation effect before - whether the preparation phase after five turns is counted according to both sides' turns or only according to one's own turns.

The performance in the Light Pyramid confirmed that it was the "preparation phase for the fifth round", in other words, if it was calculated based on the rounds of both parties, it would be the next ninth round.
The grass on the grave is several feet high.

"You have at least grown into a decent duelist in the past six months," Kaiba said, "but this level is not enough to satisfy me.

Watch out, You↑Xuan↓, the real battle is about to begin!"
