"Set a card face down, my turn ends." After ending his attack, Youyu said calmly, "Due to the opponent's Monster reduction, Masked Hero Koga's attack power drops to 3000."
The Nightwalker's crowd was boiling with excitement at this moment.
"A Monster with 4800 attack points was easily taken down!"
"No need to say it, look who that is! That's the Duel King! Our organization's first-ever Duel King!"
President Mukuro, who was just vomiting blood, staggered to his feet and yelled, "Well done! Well done... cough cough..."
The old man shouted a few words and spat out blood, prompting a group of men to rush forward to catch him.
Gasper took a deep breath.
Calm down, there's no need to be nervous.
It's just a small setback, nothing significant.
Indeed, the pressure from the Duel King seemed too much for him, even though the advantage should still be on his side. To panic after only one Monster is taken out is truly unreasonable.
Gasper snorted and chuckled.
The power of Orichalcos is much more than just this!
"My turn, draw!" Gasper revealed the card he drew, "Magic Card - Pot of Greed, I draw two more cards."
Upon drawing two more cards, Gasper's pupils contracted, and he couldn't help but laugh heartily.
Youyu frowned slightly.
It seems he drew that card?
Indeed, the next moment Gasper raised the card he had just drawn.
"O great god! Grant your faithful disciple the supreme power!"
The side slot of the Duel Disc popped open, and the green Magic Card was placed on it and pushed into the Duel Disc. Suddenly, electricity surged from his Duel Disc, and a visible burst of energy erupted, spreading out from his feet.
"Field Magic, The Seal of Orichalcos, activate!"
With the energy burst, the pendant on Gasper's chest shone brilliantly. A massive pillar of light shot into the sky, as if borrowing part of the authority from a great being beyond the horizon.
The green pillar of light erupted with Gasper at its center, and a hexagram array unfurled beneath his feet, quickly expanding to encompass both fighters.
Simultaneously, Gasper's own power soared suddenly. As a Dark Duelist, his energy level skyrocketed to a terrifying height, and his aura soared like a giant, a quality shift that everyone present could clearly perceive.
"This... what is this?" Kusunoki Manager asked in surprise, "To elevate someone's power level so dramatically in an instant... does such a dark power exist?"
President Mukuro's expression was likewise complex, muttering, "So, up until now, he hasn't been serious?"
"Hahaha!"
The power surged continuously through the barrier into Gasper's body, roaring like a torrent through his veins, flowing between his organs.
Now he felt omnipotent!
"Regret now, it's too late," Gasper laughed triumphantly, "Once 'The Seal of Orichalcos' is activated, no one can escape before a victor is decided. Only the soul of the defeated as an offering to the great God of Orichalcos will allow the winner to leave unharmed."
He drew another card from his hand and inserted it into the slot on his Duel Disc.
"I activate Magic Card - Bronze Knight Order! Sacrifice any number of hand cards, Special Summon the corresponding number of Bronze Knight Tokens. (Anime card)
I sacrifice two hand cards, Special Summon two 'Bronze Knight Tokens'!"
As the two hand cards were sent to the graveyard, two knights in white armor holding bronze longswords appeared on his field. The Orichalcos symbol quickly appeared on the helmets of the knights, granting them corresponding power.
[Bronze Knight Tokens, attack power 500 → attack power 1000] x2
"Hehe, next is this card," Gasper sneered confidently, "You can open your eyes wide. The ultimate power acquired by the wanderer Doma, a power even gods must kneel to and heed!
I offer the two 'Bronze Knight Tokens' and 'Gilasaurus' as tributes!"
A white whirlwind rose, enveloping the three Monsters on Gasper's field. Dark clouds gathered in the sky, seemingly anticipating the arrival of a magnificent being.
"Descend, god!" Gasper fervently pressed down the card in his hand, "Obelisk the Tormentor!"
The earth moaned, as if torn apart by an irresistible force. The blue giant's body slowly rose from the fissure, with scarlet eyes reflecting this small arena, the towering body like a majestic blue mountain.
Obelisk the Tormentor, summoned!
[Obelisk the Tormentor, attack power 4000]
Youyu furrowed his brows.
Taken from Yugi's hands... and actually in this guy's possession?
That was unexpected. He originally thought Gasper was just a weakling, but Doma chose to entrust the Tormentor to him to cause havoc, which means his standing and power within the organization should not be low either.
Indeed, from his performance so far, Gasper's power is already notably high in the current DM environment.
The Nightwalker crowd was even more astonished.
Ruler at the pinnacle of Duel Monsters, legendary Egyptian God, even standing outside the barrier observing, they could feel the divine oppression emanating from it.
"Obelisk..." Kusunoki Manager murmured, "But the Divine Card isn't something everyone can use, right? Those who misuse the Divine Card will incur divine punishment..."
"Not at all." Gasper laughed proudly, "Behold, this is the great power of Orichalcos!"
The power of the barrier flowed into the Tormentor's body, seemingly beginning to erode this destructive god's consciousness. The Tormentor roared angrily, its eyes turning crimson, pounding its huge fists on its forehead, but all to no avail.
The hexagram Orichalcos symbol stubbornly appeared atop the Egyptian God, signifying that even this Egyptian God fell under the control of the barrier's power.
[Obelisk the Tormentor, attack power 4000 → attack power 4500]
The sacrificial Monsters disappeared, and now all that remained on Gasper's field was "Obelisk the Tormentor," therefore Koga's attack power could only rise by 500.
[Masked Hero Koga, attack power 3000]
[Youyu, LP 1200]
"Damn, if this attack goes through, Youyu will..." Kusunoki Manager gritted his teeth, "Monster effects and traps are useless against divine beings..."
President Mukuro said nothing, but his eyes were red, trembling as he tried to stand.
It's all because of him.
If he, this old man, wasn't so useless, Youyu wouldn't have started with only 1200 LP.
If Youyu fails because of the god's strike, it will be entirely his fault.
"This is the end, Duel King." Gasper's eyes glinted green, filled with madness, "Shatter under the god's strike, hand over your soul and the other two Egyptian God Cards!
Obelisk! Deliver the final blow – Divine Strike!"
The controlled Obelisk unwillingly raised its fist, roaring furiously, and swung its gigantic fist at Youyu. Unending blue godly energy surged forward, like mighty waves...
BOOM!!!
