Divine Wrath!
The opponent faced is Dartz, who has merged with the Evil God, leaving no room for Youyu to hold anything back.
He felt the stir of power the moment he drew a card, an impulse to destroy eagerly waiting to burst forth. He could feel his blood boiling, every cell in his body excited by the uncontained power.
The moment the card was drawn from the top of the deck, it seemed to unleash an invisible shock in the air.
Dartz's expression changed slightly: "That power..."
"I activate Magic Card - Foolish Burial from my hand! Send one monster from the deck to the graveyard," Youyu revealed the monster card he searched from the deck, "I send 'Hero Kid' to the graveyard."
Dartz was unfazed: "Sending such a weak monster to the graveyard, what's the point?"
"Next is the Magic Card - The Shallow Grave!" The new magic card projection appeared beside Youyu, "Each player selects a monster from their graveyard and special summons it in defense position!" (Animation Effect)
The graveyard of the Duel Disc flashed gold, and the recently sent Hero Kid bounced out instantly. With a special effect of gold light accompanied by a gust of wind, the hero dressed like an astronaut, with a small body, appeared in a half-squat on Youyu's field.
[Hero Kid, Defense Power 600]
Dartz's Duel Disc graveyard also flashed with golden light and released a monster card.
"Then I special summon 'Air Fortress Ziggurat,' in defense position," Dartz said lightly, "Come back to serve as a wall!"
The commotion on Dartz's side was much greater. The massive steel construct returned to the field with grand momentum, engines roaring violently, like iron clouds looming over the field.
[Air Fortress Ziggurat, Defense Power 2000]
"Then at this moment, the effect of the surviving treasure trove!" Dartz said, "Since a monster resurrected from the graveyard, I draw three cards from the deck."
"Then the effect of Continuous Trap - Appropriate," Youyu also said, "I draw two cards from the deck."
"Next is Hero Kid's effect!" Youyu waved his hand, "When Hero Kid is special summoned, any number of cards with the same name can be special summoned from the deck.
Come, Hero Kid!"
Two beams of golden light shot out from the deck at the call of their companion, landing half-squatted on the field. Three small apprentice heroes squatted alongside each other, like an iron wall protecting Youyu.
[Hero Kid, Defense Power 600] x2
"Three monsters on the field..." Dartz narrowed his eyes slightly, "So you're preparing to summon after all?"
"I use the three 'Hero Kid' monsters on the field as tribute..."
A whirlwind rose, swirling around the bodies of the apprentice heroes in a tornado shape. Three figures vanished into golden light in succession, soaring into the sky, escaping the confines of the green barrier, heading high above the sky.
Dark clouds gathered without notice. As the black clouds rolled and the three beams of golden light disappeared beyond the clouds, an entity of immense power descended.
"Blazing winds scour the earth, suppressing everything with absolute divine power! Descend—
—Obelisk the Tormentor, the Destruction God!"
The massive blue giant appeared on the earth, towering like a mountain. Its crimson eyes seemed to contain an uncontainable rage, ready at any time to become a scorching storm that incinerates all opponents!
Destruction God, descend!
[Obelisk the Tormentor, Attack Power 4000]
Dartz raised his head to face the descending Egyptian God, his clothes and blue hair fluttering in the fierce wind.
"Finally here, Egyptian God." He said calmly, "Rightly so. You should have your part on the closing stage."
Yet even so, Dartz appeared seemingly unperturbed.
"But now, even the appearance of an Egyptian God cannot change anything."
Youyu paid no heed: "Magic Card - The Warrior Returning Alive, recover Warrior-Type monster from the graveyard to the hand. I choose to recover Elemental Hero Shadow Mist."
Youyu picked up the Shadow Mist that bounced out from the graveyard and added it to his hand, simultaneously revealing three cards in his hand.
"Magic Card - Polymerization, activate!"
The Fusion Magic Card floated before Youyu, releasing vast magical power that transformed into a spinning vortex.
"Fusion Elemental Hero Shadow Mist from hand, along with Destiny Hero Malicious of Dark Attribute!
Fusion condition: Elemental Hero with any Dark Attribute monster. Fusion Summon!
Appear, Elemental Hero Escuridao!"
The pitch-black Elemental Hero and the demonic Destiny Hero respectively appeared, and the two figures flew into the sky, merging into that vortex. The dark waterfall descended from the heavens, transforming into an armored Fusion Hero returning to the field.
[Elemental Hero Escuridao, ATK 2500]
"Hmm, a monster whose attack power rises with the number of Elemental Heroes in the graveyard." Dartz said, "Are you swiftly summoning the strongest lineup for a counterattack?"
"Shadow Mist's effect! When sent to the graveyard, add a 'Hero' monster from the deck to the hand. I choose the other 'Elemental Hero Liquidman' from the deck."
Youyu drew this handsome Liquidman from the deck, displayed it, and added it to his hand, then continued the operation.
"Next is the effect of 'Destiny Hero Malicious' sent to the graveyard as Fusion Material!"
A golden light shone from the graveyard, and Youyu took out the card that was ejected from the graveyard and returned it to the card box behind him.
"By banishing Malicious from the game, I can Special Summon a card with the same name from the deck! I Special Summon a second 'Destiny Hero Malicious'!"
A beam shot out from Youyu's deck, transforming into a second demonic hero appearing on the field.
[Destiny Hero Malicious, ATK 800]
"To unfold to this extent in a single turn..."
Saying this, Dartz's expression slightly changed.
"Could it be you're going to..."
"Exactly!" Youyu raised his hand, pointing to the Tormentor, "Obelisk the Tormentor, activate the effect! Sacrifice Destiny Hero Malicious and Elemental Hero Escuridao!
Destroy all monsters on the opponent's field and deal 4000 damage to the player!"
Dartz squinted his eyes, "Tch, Obelisk the Tormentor... What a troublesome ability."
At this moment, the two heroes had already simultaneously transformed into golden light, merging into Obelisk's body. The Destroyer Egyptian God absorbed the power of the two heroes, causing blue light to flood into his forehead like a torrent along his huge arms, and the eyes of the Egyptian God God seemed to have turned deep red.
"Obelisk!" Youyu shouted, "Fist of Fate Shock Wave!"
The Destroyer God delivered a powerful punch.
The world-ending blue light, like raging waves, submerged Dartz's entire field. All cards including Mirror Knight, Call of the Grave, Spirit Reaper—immune to battle destruction—were swept away by the Divine Strike.
One punch, like mountains collapsing and earth cracking. The indestructible barrier of Orichalcos emitted a nearly mournful sound, the ground shook, and rocks rolled off the mountain as if about to collapse.
However...
[Dartz, LP 10600]
Youyu furrowed his brow slightly.
"That was dangerous indeed, Obelisk's strike... Truly worthy of an Egyptian God's power, definitely effective."
From the scattered dust, Dartz's figure gradually emerged.
Before him seemed to appear...
...a pitch-black rectangular slate!?
He stood there, smiling calmly, pointing to the Trap Card overturned beside him.
"But at that instant, I activated the Set Card, Trap Card - Energy-Absorbing Monolith. This trap allows any effect damage received this turn to be turned into LP recovery.
Therefore, I regained the 4000 LP dealt by 'Fist of Fate Shock Wave'."
After a pause, he pointed to his front field, "At this moment, the effect of Orichalcos Gigas continues to activate. Gigas will revive again."
The indomitable Gigas returned to the field once again, roaring fiercely at Youyu and the Tormentor on his field, seemingly unfazed even by an Egyptian God.
But this time, Dartz apparently didn't intend to use it as a shield anymore. This time, from the graveyard, Gigas was moved by Dartz to the Magic Trap Zone, essentially a defensive position.
[Orichalcos Gigas, ATK 1900 → ATK 2400]
"The effect of Jar of Greed." Dartz said, "Draw three cards."
"Appropriate's effect!" Youyu exclaimed as well, "I draw two cards."
"Then, at the moment you destroyed 'Orichalcos Chidalla', its final hidden ability also activated." Dartz raised his arm high, "When 'Orichalcos Chidalla' leaves the field, the final Orichalcos Idol descends upon this field!
Special Summon from the deck, Orichalcos Sinolos!"
