Chapter 443: The Tactics of Trade-Offs (5K for monthly tickets!)

"The turn continues. Before the turn ends, I will activate this card.

Equip magic cards, future fusion."

Amagi Hikaru did not end the turn immediately, but continued to operate: "Send the Fusion Materials in the deck to the graveyard, and Fusion Summon a Fusion Monster. That monster cannot attack during the turn it is Special Summoned."

"Oh..." This card?
Marufuji Ryo also has this card, so he knows how powerful it is.

For a fully fused Amagi Hikaru, there is no more convenient fusion than this card.

Even Ancient Mecha Fusion and Shaddoll Fusion pale in comparison to this card.

"I'm going to send the fusion materials in my deck, Shaddoll and Shaddoll Lizard, to the graveyard for a Fusion Summon!"

After hearing these two words, many people immediately knew what he was going to do.

Amagi Hikaru slowly clenched his fist, then raised his hand and said, "It's time!"

Purple light extended wildly from behind him, and a hint of purple light seemed to flash in Amagi's eyes. Tiera was beside him, gently raised her hand, and pulled out countless puppet strings.

"Listen!" Amagi Hikaru slowly placed a card from the extra deck on the field, "God's voice, God's words, understand and interpret this God's command!
Fusion Summon!

Come down!
"The Divine Shadow-I Midrash!"

Purple smoke emerged, and a puppet was pulled up from the dreamland by the puppet string and flew onto the spaceship.

Divine Shadow Yi Midrash, Level 5, Dark Attribute, Magician, Attack Power: 2200.
“It’s Midrash!”

"The blocked monster—"

"Amagi Hikaru's partner..."

Many people are already very familiar with this monster. Although Amagi Hikaru has not used this card many times, all of Amagi Hikaru’s acquaintances know that she is Amagi Hikaru’s most trusted "partner".

Even his enemies knew that Midrash was a spirit that appeared beside Amagi Hikaru almost every day.

"Then, you probably haven't forgotten the effects of Shaddoll monsters." Amagi Hikaru said, "Shaddoll monsters have the ability to activate monster effects when they enter the graveyard. Shaddoll monsters draw a card, and Shaddoll Lizard's effect sends a Shaddoll card in your deck to the graveyard."

"I choose to send Shaddoll Fusion to the Graveyard and draw a card."

"Cover a card and the turn ends."

In front of the TV, Judai crossed his legs, supported himself on the ground with his hands, and swayed from side to side: "Guang, you are so serious. You actually played this combination when you came up."

"Huh?" The two younger brothers were instinctively surprised.

Although it was a good start, with one at 2500 and the other at 2200, they were actually not that impressive among the finalists.

Everyone can find a way to deal with this situation.

"What a strong situation." Jim couldn't help but murmured when he saw it, "Midrash has the ability to block special summons. As long as Midrash is on the field, both sides can only Special Summon one monster per turn.

The big flower grass has the effect of reducing the opponent's attack power and increasing its own attack power. Unless the attack power reaches 4500 points, it cannot be destroyed by conventional means.

The Dreamland on the field can assist the scene. Even if Caesar uses cards to deal with monsters on the Amagi field, he can still draw a card.

Not only that, Midrash has the ability to retrieve Shaddoll Fusion after being sent to the graveyard, and keep it until the next turn to activate directly.

Misawa Daichi also nodded repeatedly, "Even if we don't consider Amagi's cover card, just these two cards, the field, and the graveyard are a headache. If we try to fuse a monster with an attack power greater than 2200, we must deal with Midrash before we can operate again. This will lose the battle phase, which can be said to be the biggest limitation of Cyber ​​Dragon."

Of course, in the eyes of some viewers who don't know the truth, if Caesar directly combines his power with the Electronic Terminator Dragon and then attacks Midrash, wouldn't he win?

But the same thing still applies. In Misawa Daichi's opinion, there is still a very serious problem, that is - Amagi Hikaru still has a coverage card.

Simply put, in their opinion, the scene of Amagi Light is very "three-dimensional".

"It's like this right from the start. You're worthy of me, Guang." Caesar smiled. "But it's good too. This way, it will be even more exciting."

It was a pity for Marufuji Ryo that he was unable to compete with Amagi Hikaru in the Duel Academy.

Now, half a year has passed, and they meet again, and are fighting against each other at the top of this world. Caesar is of course extremely excited.

The spaceship moved forward slowly. Caesar looked at the card in his hand and slowly raised his head.

"If your opponent has a monster on the field and you don't, you can Special Summon this card - hehe, come on, Cyber ​​Dragon!"

Buzz.

A silver-white mechanical dragon appeared on the field after a flash of strong light.

Cyber ​​Dragon, Level 5, Light Attribute, Mechanical, Attack Power 2100.
As this monster appeared, a string of purple puppet strings swept from the surroundings of the spaceship to Caesar's side, entangled Caesar's Duel Disk, and prevented him from Special Summoning monsters again.

Many viewers know that in this way, Caesar will not be able to special summon monsters.

"Then, magic card, evolve light flame!"

"Evolution Flame..."

"As I recall, it's a magic card that can destroy a card on the field, but it's useless. I remember that Midrash can't be destroyed by effects."

The confident smile on Caesar's face never faded: "There is no need to destroy the Midrash - what I want to destroy is the future fusion!"

Smile.

"The effect of Future Fusion is that as soon as it leaves the field, the monster you Fusion Summon will be destroyed. Even Midrash can't avoid this effect."

"Go ahead, Cyber ​​Dragon, evolve into Flame!"

The silver-white mechanical dragon twisted its body and sprayed streams of light towards the equipment magic cards on the Tiancheng light field. After a while, the future fusion was destroyed and dissipated on the field.

"But, the effects of Midrash and Dreamland are activated - I fuse the Shaddoll in the graveyard into my hand, then draw a card."

Amagi Hikaru took a look at the card he had drawn.

Dragon Mage Guardian.

come yet.

Amagi Hikaru looked across again.

The Midrash was dealt with, but what about the Chimera Grandiflora?
"There is a monster on the opponent's field. Activate the effect of Cybertron Snake to Special Summon - Cybertron Snake!"

Once again, the strange electronic dragon card that Amagi Hikaru had never seen before appeared on the field. It twisted its body and spun in the air, moving along with the spacecraft.

Cyberworld Snake, Level 5, Light Attribute, Mechanical, Defense 2100.
"Based on this effect, Cyberworld Snake can Special Summon 1 [Cyber ​​Dragon] Equipment from your Deck. This turn, you cannot Special Summon a non-Machine-Type monster."

Another electronic dragon comes on stage.

"There are three level 5 monsters!"

"Could it be that it's coming?"

Xyz Summoning, the Xyz Summoning that only Marufuji Ryo can perform, is it going to appear at this time?
"Until then, Normal Summon, Cyber ​​Dragon Core." Caesar Normal Summoned a card casually.

The little purple mechanical dragon danced its body, landed on the electronic world snake, and flew in the sky with it.

Electronic Dragon Core, Level 2, Light Attribute, Mechanical, Attack Power 400.
"Effect of Cyber ​​Dragon Core: When this card is Normal Summoned, activate. Add 1 [Cyber] Spell/Trap Card or [Cybertech] Spell/Trap Card from your Deck to your hand."

He picked up his deck, which scattered in the air. He himself was not worried at all that the cards would be blown out of the spaceship due to the strong storm. He accurately found a card from the deck and took it out instantly.

"I'm adding Cyber ​​Dark Invasion to my hand!"

"Then, activate the effect of Cyber ​​World Snake, return the Cyber ​​Dragon Core on the field as a [Cyber ​​Dragon] to your hand, and add a [Fusion] from your deck to your hand."

"Finally..." Caesar looked to his left, "Light, I will use this card to respond to your [Fusion] - Equip Magic Card, Future Fusion!"

“It’s the same card!”

"Sure enough, Caesar must have this card in his hand."

When Amagi Hikaru saw the card, he was not surprised at all.

This is too normal.

It's basically a matter of course that Caesar has this kind of card.

After all, this card was used by him in the original game.

"According to the effect of Future Fusion, I send the Cyber ​​Dark Claw, Cyber ​​Dark Cannon, Cyber ​​Dark Blade Wing, Cyber ​​Dark Magic Horn, and Cyber ​​Dark Dragon Bone in my deck to the graveyard!"

"Fusion Summon!"

His momentum suddenly changed, and with his movements, the sky seemed to darken, and countless blue electric currents visible to the naked eye surged and pulsated in the sky. "Wow--" Fubuki, who was watching the live broadcast in a wheelchair in the hospital, saw the flashing snowflakes on the screen and couldn't help but smile, "That's great..."

"See for yourself, this is my struggle, my dignity, my duel!"

"Integrate the inner and outer, and become an absolutely powerful being!"

"Fusion Summon!"

A huge, ferocious mechanical monster slowly descended from the black cloud, accompanied by evil claws and cannons, and the monster let out a shrill and loud roar.

"Level 10!"

"Armored Prison Dragon-Electronic Dark Dragon!"

"Oh! It's the Cyber ​​Dark Dragon!" Seeing this monster up close, Misawa Daichi could finally understand what it felt like when Fubuki faced it up close.

"This monster appeared in the duel with Senior Tenshoin. In the last duel, Caesar didn't even use this monster..." Wanzhangmu looked at the manic monster and couldn't help muttering, "In the duel with Senior Tenshoin, I only know that this monster can equip the mechanical and dragon monsters in the cemetery and gain attack power. Other than that, I don't know anything..."

He watched the duel carefully.

Although there is no duel yet, he has only one goal, and that is to win the championship, so he must figure out the effects of the trump cards of both contestants.

Armored Prison Dragon - Cyber ​​Dark Dragon, Level 10. Dark attribute, Mechanical type, Attack Power 2000.
"Effect of Cyber ​​Dark Dragon: Activate when this card is Special Summoned. Select 1 Dragon-Type or Machine-Type monster in your Graveyard and use it as an Equip Card, and equip it to this card.

I will equip the electronic dark cannon."

Caesar had an excited smile on his face: "The Cyber ​​Dark Dragon's attack power increases by the attack power of the monster equipped with its effect."

Cyber ​​Dark Dragon, ATK: 2000 → 3600.
"3600?"

"Normally, it has surpassed Chimaera, but... Chimaera has the effect of reducing the attack power of the opponent's monster and increasing its own attack power. Unless the attack power reaches 4500, it will be useless, right?"

Some viewers were not happy with the move.

"Heh, what a waste of future fusion." Some soldiers in the fusion army couldn't help but sneer when they saw this, "Amagi Hikaru won't be defeated by this card."

"Oh, really?" Youli heard the soldier's words and turned around. When the soldier saw this, he suddenly felt like he was facing a great enemy and lowered his head tremblingly.

"Hahaha, you're so funny. Can you continue analyzing?" He chuckled and joked.

So he listened with a smile as the soldier explained in his own understanding what Caesar should do.

Yuri, on the other hand, listened to his words unchanged as if he were a statue.

"It's almost time—" Caesar said as a white light flashed on his body.

His clothes began to change color slowly. The originally black coat soon turned into pure white, and even his eyes showed a slight change of color.

"Appeared!"

"It's the photonization of the X dimension—"

Countless audiences became excited.

"Use the level 5 Cyber ​​Dragon and level 5 Cyber ​​World Snake on the field to stack Hyper Network!"

The two mechanical monsters turned into balls of light and merged into the black vortex that suddenly appeared on the earth. As the two balls of light poured in, a huge metal dragon with black wings slowly rose from it.

"Super Summon!"

"Level 5!"

"Cyber ​​Dragon Nova!"

Another ace-level monster was Special Summoned by Caesar.

Unlike the "Armored Dragon" which has epoch-making significance for Caesar and electronic dragons, in the eyes of more people, the excessive number of electronic dragons is more surprising and more surprising.

Cyber ​​Dragon Nova, Rank 5, Light Attribute, Mechanical, Attack 2100, Xyz Materials: 2.
"The effect of Cyber ​​Dragon Nova removes the Cyber ​​Dragon on the field and increases its attack power by 2100 points!"

Cyber ​​Dragon Nova, ATK: 2100 → 4200.
He glanced at the Chimera Grandiflora and raised the corner of his mouth: "Battle phase - Cyber ​​Dragon Nova attacks the Chimera Grandiflora!"

"what?"

"That's not right!"

"Even if the attack power is increased by 2100 points, it is impossible to surpass the Chimera Giant Flower Plant!"

Yes--

Many people know that the effect of Chimera Grandiflora is specifically aimed at monsters that rely on attack power, and it can even collide with monsters with up to 4500 attack power.

Although Cyber ​​Dragon Nova easily reached 4200 attack points, it is still a bit too much to think that he can fight against Chimaera Giant Flower, right?

"What is my brother thinking about?" Maruto Sho scratched his head, unable to figure it out.

How could his brother do such a suicidal thing?

Marufuji Ryo had a smile on his face as he commanded the monsters to move forward. Amagi Hikaru frowned, thought for a moment, and shook his head: "I won't activate the effect of the Chimaera Giant Flower."

What! ! !
"Why!!" Even Manjomu and Misawa Daichi couldn't help but blurt out.

Whether it was the audience in this dimension, the audience on Earth, the elves, or even the fusion army, this question almost came out at the same time.

Why! ?

No matter how you look at it, you have the advantage!
"Hahaha - wise move!" Caesar laughed. "In a duel, you must not only gain an advantage, but also choose to give up something when necessary."

He praised Amagi Hikaru and was impressed by his excellence.

At the same time, he was thinking in his heart.

Sure enough, Tiancheng had thought of it a long time ago.

As expected of Amagi Hikaru who pursues ultimate fusion, he must know the effect of [Armored Prison Dragon].

The Cyber ​​Dragon Nova vibrated its wings, reducing its own flying speed, and as the spaceship moved forward, it aimed a pair of wings at the flowers and plants, instantly slashing past them, painlessly cutting them in half.

Amagi LP: 4000→2300.
"Cover two cards and end the turn."

"My turn, draw a card——"

After drawing the card, Amagi Hikaru immediately spoke: "During the Standby Phase, if this card is sent to the Graveyard by the effect of Chimaera Grandiflora, activate it during the next Standby Phase. Add 1 Spell/Trap Card with [Fusion] in its name from your Deck to your hand.

I added the magic card simple fusion to my hand!"

"Then - when your opponent controls a monster that is Special Summoned from the Extra Deck, this card can use the monsters in the Deck as Fusion Materials - I activate the Spell Card, Shaddoll Fusion!"

"Don't even think about it. Activate Cyber ​​Dark Dragon's effect. When your opponent activates a Spell, Trap, or Monster effect, activate by sending an Equip Card on my field to the Graveyard. Negate that activation and destroy it!"

"what!?"

"hiss--"

"Wow, what a terrifying effect!"

The cannon on the Electronic Dark Dragon's back was aimed at the magic on the Sky City light field. It focused for a moment, and then a black electric current rushed out, instantly blasting the card into pieces.

"I'm so..." Countless people looked at this scene in shock.

Even Misawa Daichi couldn't help swallowing.

What a terrifying effect!

At this time, they came to their senses and thought about it again, and suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.

If they were contestants, and they were in Amagi Hikaru's position and foolishly activated the effect, it seems like they would have already lost! ?
If the effect of Chimaera Grandiflora was activated in the previous turn, it will be negated and destroyed by the effect of Cyber ​​Dark Dragon. At that time, the number of monsters on Amagi Hikaru's field will change, so Cyber ​​Dragon Nova's attack will be rolled back. At that time, Cyber ​​Dragon Nova can attack directly!

That's right, when attacking, if the number of monsters on the opponent's field changes, you can choose to roll back the attack and reselect the target of attack. If 1 monster suddenly becomes 0, it can become a direct attack!
A direct attack of 4200 points is a loss that cannot be borne at all! Because once you bear it, you will lose!

Did Amagi Hikaru even prepare for the effect of a card that was just created?!

"As expected of you, the absolute fusion master who pursues the ultimate fusion..."

"You're even prepared for something like this!?"

The soldiers of the fusion army opened their mouths wide, and only then did they realize how powerful the future fusion of Kaiyulong would be and how wise and reasonable the choice of Amagi Hikaru was!
Many people realized belatedly that in the last round, Amagi Hikaru's decision to give up on activating the effect was not stupidity but great wisdom!
This is the decision to make!
