Not only the three Card Professors, but everyone present at headquarters was shocked at this moment.
Did the Duel King just say that the battle would be resolved this turn...?
Not to defeat just one person, but all three of them!?
That's a total of twelve thousand Life Points!
From the perspective of Duelists in their era, even if the opponent stood still and let you attack, it's impossible to deplete a full twelve thousand Life Points in just one turn, right?
"Well, let's get started."
Youyu first revealed the Magic Card retrieved during last round's special summon of "Elemental Hero Blazeman".
"Magic Card - Polymerization activate!" The Magic Card appeared before Youyu, "Fusing the Wind Attribute 'Elemental Hero Featherman' and 'Elemental Hero Sparkman' in my hand!
The fusion conditions are: Elemental Hero plus any Wind Attribute Monster!
Fusion Summon! Elemental Hero Great Tornado!"
Green and golden light shot into the magical vortex, blending and nurturing a new force. A storm swept across the field, as if a deity was roaring in the wind. The imposing Hero hovered in mid-air, his cloak flapping loudly in the wind.
[Elemental Hero Great Tornado, ATK 2800]
"Great Tornado's effect activates!" Youyu declared, "Upon successful Fusion Summon, all monsters on the opponent's field have their Attack and Defense halved!"
[Giant Orc, ATK 2200 → ATK 1100]
[Alien Shocktrooper, ATK 1900 → ATK 950]
Enoch instinctively raised his arm in the illusory gale, gritting his teeth, "Our monsters are being..."
"Next, I switch 'Elemental Hero Blazeman' from Defense Position to Attack Position, then activate its effect!"
Youyu opened his Card Deck, drew a card from it, and flipped it between his fingers.
"Once per turn, Blazeman can send an Elemental Hero Monster from the Deck to the Graveyard, and until the end of the turn, gains the same Attribute, Attack, and Defense as the sent Monster.
I send 'Elemental Hero Edgeman' to the Graveyard, making Blazeman's Attribute Earth Attribute, boosting its Attack to 2600 until the end of the turn."
Blazeman let out a clear shout, the flames surrounding him subtly changed to the color of the earth, and his power seemed to increase.
[Elemental Hero Blazeman, ATK 1200 → ATK 2600]
Disius's expression shifted slightly, "To summon four monsters so easily, and have mighty Heroes with Attack 2600 and 2800..."
"Battle!" Youyu waved his hand, "First, I'll deal with you! Great Tornado, attack Castle Gate!"
For Youyu, whose LP was only 1100, the greatest threat was naturally that pesky gate. That thing can sacrifice monsters of Level 5 or below once per turn for direct effect damage. If it wasn't dealt with first, it might be troubling if dragged into the next turn.
However, in order to activate its effect, the Castle Gate with 0 Attack had to remain in Attack Position. Thus, it inadvertently exposed its weakness.
The storm unleashed by Great Tornado hit the red gate directly, shaking the iron behemoth. The gale pierced through the door and continued its assault on Disius, the controller.
"Ughhhhh!!!"
[Disius, LP 4000 → LP 1200]
"Ugh... Damn," Disius gritted his teeth, "Castle Gate cannot be destroyed by battle..."
"But you still have to take battle damage," Youyu smiled slightly, "I'm sorry, but you'll need to exit now. Elemental Hero Liquidman, attack Castle Gate!"
The liquid hero leaped up, striking with his right palm, sending a torrent swirling towards the gigantic door. The surge pierced the gate, hitting Disius directly.
"Damn it ahhhh!!!"
[Disius, LP 1200 → LP 0]
With an unwilling cry, the uncle Card Professor was the first to exit.
Enoch swallowed, feeling a bit of fear.
Are all three of us really going to be taken down this turn...?
No, it shouldn't be possible.
Two of the heroes on the field have already attacked, no matter what, the remaining attacks can't possibly take them all down, can they?
No matter how you think about it, a triple kill in one turn is simply absurd.
As if seeing through his thoughts, Youyu's gaze landed directly on him.
The bespectacled guy felt his heart skip a beat, letting out an "ah" almost jumping in fright.
"Don't worry, you're next." Youyu revealed the card he had retrieved earlier in the turn, "Quick-Play Magic - Form Change! Send Elemental Hero Shadow Mist on the field to the Graveyard, Special Summon the same Attribute Masked Hero!
Masked transformation! Masked Hero Anki, summon!"
The black mist released, the armor was donned, and Shadow Mist quickly transformed through a series of gloomy special effects, turning into the pitch-black Masked Hero Anki.
[Masked Hero Anki, Attack 2800]
The remaining two were shocked: "Summoned another monster with 2800 attack power!?"
"The battle continues, use Masked Hero Anki to attack the Giant Orc with halved attack power!" Youyu shouted, "Knight Kick!"
Anki jumped with astonishing agility, spinning in mid-air, then diving down with a powerful kick to the white orc's forehead.
The latter let out a dull scream, and under the hero's kick, exploded into dust, along with the Goblin Assistant equipped on it.
[Enoch, LP 4000 → LP 2300]
Enoch gritted his teeth: "Damn it, my Giant Orc was so easily..."
"At this moment, Masked Hero Anki's special effect activates!" Youyu continued, opening his card deck, "When a monster on the opponent's field is destroyed in battle, add a 'Transformation' Quick-Play Magic from the deck to the hand."
He revealed the dazzling Magic Card with a bright card image.
"Quick-Play Magic - Form Change, added to the hand."
"Battle continues!" Youyu added the searched Magic Card to his hand and shouted, "Elemental Hero Blazeman, attack directly!"
[Elemental Hero Blazeman, Attack 2600]
Blazeman let out a shout, leaping into the air, mimicking Edgeman's stance, trailing two long tails of flames behind as he sped forward like a flying missile.
The flame on his arm transformed into a blade, slicing through Enoch with its high-temperature edge. The bespectacled guy let out a scream, and the burning impact knocked him to the ground.
[Enoch, LP 2300 → LP 0]
Instantly reducing the opponent's side by two. Now there was only one person left on the Card Professor's side.
Watching his companions fall one after another, the remaining Dippler swallowed hard, his face stricken with fear.
...No way?
This guy... is he really going to take us all down in one turn!?
When Youyu shifted his smiling gaze to him, Dippler was so startled he almost shouted out loud.
Funny thing is, the person's warm smile seemed friendly enough, yet meeting his eyes sent chills down one's spine.
It felt... felt as if facing a doctor walking over with a syringe, smiling as he coaxed: "Be good, lift your bottom, it'll be over quickly and won't hurt a bit..."
"Quick-Play Magic - Form Change." Youyu played the Magic Card that he just searched from the card deck, "This card allows a Hero Fusion Monster on the field to return to the deck, then Special Summon a Masked Hero with the same level but a different name.
I return 'Masked Hero Anki' to the deck! Form Change!
Masked Hero Dian, summon!"
The armor disintegrated, black mist surrounded Anki, and the transformation effect gradually shifted from black to a brilliant blue, the sparkling like diamond armor re-donned on the hero, transforming into a new Masked Hero.
[Masked Hero Dian, Attack 2800]
Dippler was almost numb, mumbling like a robot: "Another hero with 2800 attack power..."
"Battle continues, Masked Hero Dian!" Youyu pointed at the pitiful Alien Shocktrooper on the opponent's side, whose attack had been halved, "Attack the Alien Shocktrooper!"
Dian flew out, the blue cape fluttering like a flag. The sword left a blue arc-like trail in the air, dazzling like a diamond, easily slicing through the soldier's body, blowing it into pieces.
[Dippler, LP 4000 → LP 2150]
Dippler took the hit, gritting his teeth as he watched the diamond-like hero retreat back to his field.
Stay calm, now the opponent's attack should be completely over, he still has a chance...
But he did not. Youyu flipped over the next card in his hand and shattered his illusion: "Then Quick-Play Magic - Mask Change! In the sparkle of the diamond, put on the mask and transform again!
Send Masked Hero Dian to the graveyard, Mask Change! Return once more to the field, Masked Hero Dian!"
The transformation effect enveloped the diamond hero again, a splendid light transforming into brand new armor, with the cerulean cape fluttering, the newly transformed Dian descended anew!
[Masked Hero Dian, Attack 2800]
The field was empty, and Dippler stared blankly at the hero who made a reappearance: "No... can't be..."
"The final battle!" Youyu waved his hand, "Masked Hero Dian, direct attack!"
The Masked Hero leapt, the sword swishing out a dazzling trajectory. The sword light became a soaring dragon, outrageously surging past Dippler.
[Dippler, LP 2150 → LP 0]
"..."
A triple kill in one turn!
