Chapter 1595: Reversal

Chapter 1595: Reversal

"At the end of the turn, ‘Cosmic Blazar Dragon' returns to the field." Yuei Vu said.

[Cosmic Blazar Dragon, ATK 4000 → ATK 4500]

"This is also a troublesome guy who won't stop until he dies." Nightshroud looked at the monsters on Yuei Vu's field with some impatience.

One was the final evolution of Stardust Dragon from Yusei Fudo, the ultimate Accel Synchro monster, "Cosmic Blazar Dragon". The other was the Soul Ace from Yuki Judai, the hero from outer space, "Elemental HERO Neos".

With these two monsters, it gave the feeling that Yusei and Judai themselves were standing on this field and fighting side by side with Yuei Vu.

"The power of bond?" Nightshroud said, "It's boring. Maybe the connection between you duelists can give you more power, but it means nothing in front of the ultimate darkness."

He laughed sarcastically again.

"Even if you beat me here, even if you really win this battle, it won't change anything.

The darkness in people's hearts is everlasting, and I am the embodiment of darkness! Therefore, I am eternal and immortal. In countless worlds and countless timelines, as long as there are humans, I will always be there.

From the beginning, the ending was determined. You never had any chance at all."

Yuei Vu frowned.

In fact, he had already realized this before the fight.

Indeed, Nightshroud was immortal in its essence. He was the embodiment of the darkness in people's hearts. As long as the darkness was not extinguished, he would not disappear.

And now, countless times and spaces were linked together by the Duel Link system, and there were his clones in all time and space. This made Nightshroud have infinite possibilities, and no matter how many times he had been defeated, it may be useless.

This was why Nightshroud said from the beginning that he was not afraid of even Holactie.

Even if the Creator God of Light reigned supreme over all Duel Monsters, even if she had the supreme power to kill everything in an instant once she appeared, she could not destroy Nightshroud.

To some extent, Nightshroud has become part of the world's laws, which is why even Z-ONE couldn't do anything to him.

But Yuei Vu quickly thought of what Holactie had said to him before the duel began.

She had said at the time that this would be a very difficult battle, and that Nightshroud could not be easily destroyed, but at the same time, she also said that this was not a no-way-out situation.

The key was on the card she handed to Yuei Vu.

And now, Yuei Vu seemed to have roughly guessed what that card was.

A card that could solve a problem that eventhe Creator God of Light could not solve, a card that could kill even Nightshroud, changing the world's law!

"My turn, draw!"

Here it comes!

The moment the card was drawn, Yuei Vu felt the power stirring. Extraordinary, powerful power, able to ignore or even rewrite the laws of the world, supreme power!

"What is that?"

Nightshroud sensed something from the card. He felt some extremely powerful force stirring, and it seemed as if his domain was shaken the moment the card was drawn.

The Great Evil God Zorc also felt something. His heart instinctively tightened, wondering if his old enemy was about to appear again, but then he thought it was unlikely.

He was too familiar with Holactie and could smell her from a distance.

So he was sure that it was definitely not Holactie.

But besides Holactie, who else has such a terrifying force stirring?

"I Normal Summon ‘Junk Synchron'."

[Junk Synchron, ATK 1300]

"Junk Synchron's effect – When this card is Normal Summoned: I can target 1 Level 2 or lower monster in my GY; Special Summon that target in Defense Position, but negate its effects.

I Special Summon ‘Junk Converter'."

[Junk Converter, DEF 200]

"Level 3, Tuner monster ‘Junk Synchron'!

Level 2, ‘Junk Converter'!

Tuning!"

[3+2=5]

"Gathering stars are galloping on the endless evolutionary road! Become the path that lights the way! Synchro Summon –

– Level 5, Junk Speeder!"

[Junk Speeder, DEF 1000]

"The effect of ‘Junk Speeder' – If this card is Synchro Summoned: I can Special Summon as many ‘Synchron' Tuners as possible with different Levels from my Deck, in Defense Position.

I Special Summon the remaining four ‘Synchron' monsters in the deck.

Level 1, Jet Synchron!

Level 2, Fleur Synchron!

Level 4, Stardust Synchron!

Level 5, Quickdraw Synchron! "

[Jet Synchron, DEF 0]

[Fleur Synchron, DEF 200]

[Stardust Synchron, DEF 1000]

[Quickdraw Synchron, DEF 1400]

"The effect of Stardust Synchron – If this card is Normal or Special Summoned: I can add 1 Spell/Trap from my Deck to my hand that specifically lists ‘Stardust Dragon' in its text. I add the Continuous Spell ‘Arrive in Light' from my deck to my hand.

Then I activate ‘Arrive in Light' from my hand. "

Another Continuous Spell for salvation appeared on the field.

"Level 1 Tuner ‘Jet Synchron', Level 2 Tuner ‘Fleur Synchron', Level 4 Tuner ‘Stardust Synchro', and Level 5 Synchro Monster ‘Junk Speeder', Triple Tuning!!!"

[1+2+4+5=12]

"It's actually the Triple Tuning?" Nightshroud said.

"The three sages welcome the King. The Red Star never perishes; it only crushes the foolish! Savage soul, mark the time of the creation of heaven and earth! Synchro Summon! Come forth, my new power –

– Red Supernova Dragon!"

The first Triple Tuning monster, the super-giant red dragon, appeared from the sky-high pillar of fire!

[Red Supernova Dragon, ATK 4000 → ATK 4500]

"This is Jack Atlas' trump card." Nightshroud said solemnly, "It is indeed a powerful monster, but what's the point of summoning it now?

In front of the infinite power of the Great Evil God Zorc…"

Yuei Vu ignored it at all: "The effect of ‘Red Supernova Dragon'. For each Tuner monster in my graveyard, its ATK increases by 500 points.

So far in this duel, there are 16 Tuners in my graveyard.

Therefore, the ATK of Red Supernova Dragon increases by 8000!"

[Red Supernova Dragon, ATK 4500 → ATK 12500]

"Twelve thousand five hundred?" Nightshroud said, "It is indeed a very impressive number. But as I said, it is meaningless in front of Zorc's infinite power."

"Arrive in Light's effect is activated. Once per turn, when I perform a Synchro Summon, I can draw a card from the deck."

Yuei Vu drew the card.

"Spell Card ‘Card of Demise', I can draw cards until I have 5 cards in my hand.

Then activate the Spell Card ‘Necroid Synchro' from my hand." Yuei Vu said, "Banish 1 Tuner and up to 2 non-Tuner monsters from my Graveyard, and Special Summon 1 Synchro Monster from my Extra Deck whose Level equals the total Levels of those banished monsters, but it has its effects negated!" (Animation effect)

Three cards popped out of the graveyard.

"Synchro Tuner ‘Formula Synchron'!

Synchro Monster ‘Junk Speeder'!

Synchro Monster ‘T.G. Hyper Librarian'!

Tuning!"

[2+5+5=12]

"When the gathering stars become one, a new bond will illuminate the future! Become the path that lights the way! Limit Over Accel Synchro! The light of evolution, Shooting Quasar Dragon!"

From the Accel Synchro in the graveyard, the dragon covered in white light descended like a miracle!

[Shooting Quasar Dragon, ATK 4000]

"This time it's Fudo Yusei's Limit Over Accel Synchro." Nightshroud was disdainful, "But it's still meaningless. The effect of Shooting Quasar Dragon summoned by ‘Necroid Synchro' is also negated, so it's not even a threat.

And because the number of Tuner monsters in your graveyard has decreased, the attack power of ‘Red Supernova Dragon' has also decreased."

[Red Supernova Dragon, ATK 12500 → ATK 12000]

"Activate the Spell Card ‘Monster Reborn'. The monster I want to revive is —

– Ultimaya Tzolkin!"

Red energy burst out from the vortex in the graveyard, and the flame-like brilliance gathered into the form of a burning red dragon!

[Ultimaya Tzolkin, ATK 0]

"Set a card on the field." Yuei Vu waved his hand and covered a card. "At this moment, the effect of ‘Ultimaya Tzolkin' is activated.

Once per turn, when a Spell/Trap is Set on my field, Special Summon a Level 7 to 8 Dragon Synchro Monster from my Extra Deck. The card I Special Summon is–

–Clear Wing Synchro Dragon!"

[Clear Wing Synchro Dragon, ATK 2500]

"What exactly do you want to do?" Nightshroud frowned.

So what is the point of summoning so many monsters?

No matter how many monsters you summon–even if the Crimson Dragon herself comes out, she can't be the opponent of the Great Evil God Zorc.

Yuei Vu paused for a moment and slowly showed a card in his hand.

Zorc and Nightshroud both realized that this was the card he had drawn this turn.

The card made them feel extremely bad and surged with something beyond the scope of conventional understanding.

Contains the power to turn the world around and rewrite everything!

"Open the set card: Spell Card – Double Summon!" Yuei Vu pointed to the card that had just been set, "! In this turn, I can conduct the second Normal Summon.

So I release the ‘Shooting Quasar Dragon', ‘Clear Wing Synchro Dragon', and ‘Ultimaya Tzolkin' on the field!"

Zorce x Nightshroud: "!?"

Release the Crimson Dragon, Clear Wing, and Shooting Quasar Dragon?

What needs such a summoning condition?

"A great old one who is older than the gods, the supreme being who rewrites the rules and reverses everything, the one who was born at the origin of all dimensions –

– VICTORY DRAGON!!!"

The golden light rose from the ground, dispelling the darkness, breaking through the sky, crossing the universe and the galaxy, penetrating the sky, flying out to all dimensions, awakening the king who lived in a long-forgotten corner.

A golden glow appeared on the field. The soft but majestic glow condensed into a golden skin-like armor, then a shining dragon appeared on the field, its green eyes flashing with the luster of emerald.

Victory Dragon, an eternal legend in the entire Yu-Gi-Oh system!

It had the most powerful and practical effect in the entire card pool!

Victory Dragon: This card cannot be Special Summoned. To Tribute Summon this card, you must Tribute 3 Dragon-Type monsters. If this card attacks your opponent directly and reduces their Life Points to 0, you win the Match.

Almost all new players of Yu-Gi-Oh will be confused when they see this card in the banned card list – if you attack directly and reduce the opponent's LP to zero, isn't it a win? What kind of useless effect is this?

Actually, it's not.

The description of Victory Dragon is that when you attack directly and reduce the opponent's LP to zero, you will directly win the entire game, whether it is a best-of-three or best-of-five game, not just one duel.

In other words, this is an effect that goes beyond the rules of this duel and can affect the ability of the entire game. It is commonly called "MATCH KILL" by Yu-Gi-Oh players, rewriting the game at the rule level.

Of course, some people think that Victory Dragon requires three dragons to appear, and must attack directly to trigger the "MATCH KILL" effect, so it is actually not practical.

But all such doubts have been dispelled by the gorgeous record of Victory Dragon in real card competitions since its birth.

Back when Victory Dragon was not banned, it once dominated the entire competitive environment. Because of its ridiculously powerful effect, it seriously interfered with the competitive environment. It was put on the banned card list in the early years and never came out.

With the change of versions, the environment is constantly accelerating. Naturally, many people began to question that even if Victory Dragon is still there, it may not still have the former glory in the current version of rock-paper-scissors.

But then a duel match of "allowing all banned cards in Yu-Gi-Oh" once again proved that your big brother is still your big brother.

In a game where all prohibitions were lifted, Victory Dragon once again proved that the glory of the king is still there. Now this ever-accelerating duel environment has given Victory Dragon more room to play. The actual game has once again proved that the winning rate of a deck without Victory Dragon when facing the enemy's Victory Dragon is not optimistic.

Many card masters even believe that "Victory Dragon" and the "MATCH KILL" effect series it represents are the strongest banned cards in the entire Yu-Gi-Oh system!

And if we look at it from the perspective of duel monster spirits, this is also the highest-level ability, which belongs to the effect of interfering with any other dimensions and parallel time and space, and can erase all possibilities in countless different times and spaces!

This is something that even the Creator God of Light cannot do.

Holactie the Creator God of Light's effect was "The player that Special Summons this card wins the Duel", but it was only a victory in a single duel.

So even if Holactie could easily win this duel and eliminate Nightshroud in this duel and this time and space, it was only on the surface. Nightshroud was immortal and would be reborn from the possibilities of other time and space, never truly eliminated.

But Victory Dragon was different.

The power of Victory Dragon could erase Nightshroud in all other time and space, even the laws of the world could be rewritten, and even the possibility called "Nightshroud" could be erased!

Nightshroud obviously realized this.

Since the duel, the goat-headed demon showed fear for the first time.

"Impossible!" he said in astonishment, "That was a Great Old One that appeared even before the birth of the Creator God, a rebellious Elder God who had long since disappeared in the long river of history!

How could you… How could there be such a thing…"

Up to now, he had never thought for a second that he might really die.

Because he was Nightshroud, the immortal darkness itself. Even if there was a tiny chance that he would lose this duel, he would not die…

…It should be so.

But now, Nightshroud may have felt the fear of "death" for the first time since his birth.

But the premise was that Yuei Vu must use the effect of Victory Dragon to win this duel.

"It's not over yet." He said in a deep voice, "I still have ‘Zorc Necrophades the Great Evil God of Darkness' on my field. Even Victory Dragon can't break through the Great Evil God…"

"Quick-Play Spell ‘Reflect Energy'." Yuei Vu said calmly, "Tribute 1 monster. This turn, monsters I control can attack the opponent directly." (Animation card)

He pointed to the last remaining Tuner on his field.

"I release the ‘Quickdraw Synchron' and grant the ‘Victory Dragon' the authority to attack directly." Yuei Vu said calmly, "At the same time, the attack power of ‘Red Supernova Dragon' increases."

[Red Supernova Dragon, ATK 12000 → ATK 12500]

Nightshroud's eyes flickered, and he seemed to be even more frightened.

"…But even so, the attack power of Victory Dragon is only 2400, and even with the Field Spell's enhancement, it can only reach 2900." Nightshroud said coldly, "My LP value is 9100, so even if you use Victory Dragon to attack directly, it can't be reduced to 0!"

Yuei Vu smiled and looked at the final set card at his feet.

It was the unknown-meaning card that Yusei entrusted to him before he left.

"Open the set card: Continuous Trap —

– Trust Chain!"

This was the card used by Yusei in the 5DS animation when fighting Aporia, a card that linked together the power of Yusei, Crow, and Jack's respective trump cards "Shooting Star Dragon", "Black-Winged Dragon", and "Red Nova Dragon".

A card that symbolized the bond between Yusei and his companions!

"This card can be activated by selecting a monster on my field." Yuei Vu said, "It gains ATK equal to the combined ATK of all face-up Synchro Monsters I control!

Of course, I'm going to choose ‘Victory Dragon'!"

As if connecting people's hearts, Planetary Particles appeared on the field, stringing together the monsters on Yuei Vu's field one by one. Jack's Red Supernova Dragon and Yusei's Cosmic Blazar Dragon, the power of the two dragons was linked by this card and transferred to the body of the Victory Dragon!

[Cosmic Blazar Dragon, ATK 4500]

[Red Supernova Dragon, ATK 12500]

[Victory Dragon, ATK 2900 → ATK 7400 → ATK 19900]

"Attack… 19,900!?" Nightshroud lost his voice.

"It's not over yet." Yuei Vu continued to snap his fingers, "Trap Card ‘Neos Spiral Force'! When I have ‘Elemental HERO Neos' on my field, target 1 face-up monster I control, except ‘Elemental HERO Neos'; double its ATK until the End Phase!

Use the power of Neos to strengthen it again, and the attack power of Victory Dragon… will be doubled again!"

[Victory Dragon, ATK 19900 → ATK 39800]

Nightshroud's goat-headed head had eyes full of disbelief.

Victory Dragon with an attack power of 39,800!?

Are you kidding me???

"Battle!" Yuei Vu waved his hand, "Victory Dragon, attack directly!"

Victory Dragon flapped its wings, flew high into the sky, and opened its mouth.

Tens of thousands of feet of golden light were released in an instant!

It was a brilliance that even eclipsed the sun god. The moment it bloomed, even the dark world composed entirely of darkness seemed to be filled with brilliance. The burning breath burst out from the mouth of the ancient dragon, which contained not only destructive power, but also the power and authority to subvert everything, and the power that transcended this world!

"Uh ah ah ah ah!!!"

【Nightshroud, LP 9100 →LP 0】
