"It's my turn, draw a card."
Yugen glanced at the card he drew and immediately revealed it.
"Activate the Magic Card 'Adversity's Treasure Scroll.' If there is a monster on the opponent's field and no monsters on my field, draw two cards from the card deck." (Original Card)
Yugen drew two cards.
DD remained expressionless, cautiously watching the next move of his opponent.
Although the previous turn's attack didn't achieve the desired effect, the limited damage was done, yet the advantage was still his. Despite his opponent's fierce offense, summoning numerous upper-level monsters in one turn for suppression, he managed to counter it flawlessly.
DD glanced at his hand, unconsciously clenching his fist, as if to feel the power surging within him now.
The current self, now possesses a power he could hardly imagine before. Thanks to the man he met a few days ago, the man in the white suit with a cane, meeting that person unlocked the shackles from years past, allowing him to embrace his true and most perfect self.
Now, he is truly invincible!
"Activate the Magic Card 'Price Reduction Shopping.'" Yugen declared, "Discard a Level 8 monster from your hand, and draw two cards from the deck.
I discard the Eight-Star 'Chaos Warrior' and draw two cards from the deck."
"Chaos Warrior." DD narrowed his eyes, immediately displaying a hint of anticipation, "The strongest warrior in the Duel King's legend, interesting... heh heh, the strongest warrior, or the ultimate hero, which one is stronger?"
"Well, I don't know. But..." Yugen smiled slightly, "I guess it's probably the side with the better duelist that's stronger."
DD burst into laughter.
"I have to agree with that one thing." he grinned savagely, "But that person is going to be me."
Yugen did not respond, simply inserting another Magic Card into his Duel Disc.
"Ritual Magic - Super Warrior's Bud.
The combined level up to eight, send a Light or Dark Attribute monster from the hand, and an opposite Light/Dark Attribute monster from the deck to the graveyard as the ritual tribute, to perform a Ritual Summon for the 'Chaos Warrior' Ritual Monster in your hand or graveyard!"
"Is the ritual for the Chaos Warrior about to begin?" DD appeared frenzied, "Very well, come on! Summoning the legendary warrior, it must have the strongest power to be meaningful!"
Yugen revealed the ritual duo exclusive to the Chaos Warrior.
"From the hand and deck, Light Attribute's 'Pioneer Knight,' Dark Attribute's 'Knight of the Night,' these two monsters will be offered as tributes!"
A black and a white young knight appeared on the field, looking young but sharing identical features as if carved from the same mold.
The two knights each wielded long swords, one transforming into light, the other into darkness, with two beams interweaving and converging into a deep vortex. A chaotic storm erupted in the field, as if a massive door had been blown open by a wild wind in the void.
"One soul guides light, one soul guides darkness, the gate of chaos opens here! Ritual Summon—
—Chaos Warrior!"
Chaos was cleaved open by the Sword Qi, and the swordsman, as if crossing the river of time, descended on the field with a domineering aura.
"When Pioneer Knight and Knight of the Night are used as ritual materials to summon the Chaos Warrior, the Chaos Warrior can gain special abilities from them."
Yugen said.
"Both ritual materials allow the Chaos Warrior to gain the ability 'once per turn, remove an opponent's monster from the game.'"
Thus, the Chaos Warrior summoned through these two as a ritual can remove up to two opponent's monsters from the game in one turn."
"Quite a terrifying ability, indeed."
DD adjusted his glasses again.
"I have heard about the Chaos Warrior's iconic skill, 'Dimension Slash,' which seals any blocking enemy into a Dimensional Rift. However..."
He paused, then burst into a triumphant laugh.
"But unfortunately, 'Chaos Hunter' is exactly the worst type of opponent!
The effect of Chaos Hunter, as long as this card exists in the Monster Zone, the opponent cannot remove cards from the game by any means!"
The Chaos Hunter gently flicked its long whip, enveloping the entire field with an invisible barrier, like an unseen cage. Any dimensional-related skills became prohibitive in this domain, even the Chaos Warrior could not break through.
"I know, but the signature move of the Chaos Warrior isn't just Dimension Slash."
Yugen lifted his hand and declared.
"Chaos Warrior, attack 'Netherworld King Dragon - Divine Punishment.'"
The legendary warrior drew his long sword, and the sword's radiance cleaved forward. The enormous black Netherworld Dragon was slashed down from the head by the long sword, a long sword scar appeared on its body, and its body split in two along the scar, exiting with a vague wailing.
[DD, LP2000→ LP1800]
"At this moment, another effect obtained by the Chaos Warrior from the 'Pioneer Knight' ritual material is activated." Yugen said, "When this card sends an opponent's monster to the graveyard by battle destruction, it can attack again once."
He then locked onto the second monster on the opponent's field.
"Attack 'Chaos Hunter'!"
The Chaos Warrior's long sword was unsheathed again, this time the sword's glow seemed to split into countless sword shadows, overwhelming the Hunter. Chaos Hunter shouted, swinging the long whip to defend with all her might. But the sword shadows were too dense, many still broke through her defenses, piercing her like a thousand piercing blades. Chaos Hunter also shattered into fragments and exited the field.
[DD, LP1800→ LP1300]
"With Chaos Hunter defeated, the ban on removals is lifted." Yugen said, "I then activate another effect from the Chaos Warrior obtained from the 'Knight of the Night' ritual material.
Once per turn, during my Main Phase, randomly select an opponent's card from their hand, remove it face-down from the game until the end phase of the next opponent's turn."
The young Knight of the Night briefly flickered and vanished as if transforming into power infused into the Chaos Warrior's sword. The Chaos Warrior swung its long sword again, the piercing sword light struck a card in DD's hand, an Other Dimension's vortex opened at that card's location, sucking the card into oblivion.
"Wiping out my monsters, not even sparing my hand cards... tsk, a really ruthless knight."
DD muttered.
"Finally, set one card on the field, the turn ends."
"My turn, draw a card.
Activate the Magic Card 'Pot of Greed,' draw two cards from the deck."
DD slowly drew cards, added them to his hand, and seemed to stare at his hand for quite a while,
before finally raising his head slowly.
The eyes behind his glasses seemed to have turned dark red at some point, as if soaked in blood.
"Very well, very well... legendary warrior, is it? Perfect, right now, this turn... the ultimate hero's power will be unleashed!"
