"Draw card—"
Tenjo Hikari casually placed the drawn card beside him, his eyes gleaming with a faint purple light, and then said, "At this moment, Gem-Knight Prismaura's ATK becomes 0 due to Brilliant Fusion's effect."
"Ha, now it's even harder for you to defeat us this turn."
"As duelists, you guys are quite pure." Tenjo Hikari drew a card from his hand and held it in front of him, gently waving it. He glanced at the Set Card and chose not to use his previous strategy.
After all, these two opponents seemed like they could genuinely be won over to their side.
The two sisters exchanged puzzled looks.
What's going on?
What card is that?
Tenjo Hikari gently waved the card.
This card is one he acquired not long ago.
It's a "Polymerization" Spell Card.
Honestly, when he first saw this card, Tenjo Hikari was quite shocked—because he'd never seen this card before!
At least before he crossed into this world, he had never heard of this card.
But...
Super Polymerization granted him this card.
Just recently, after awakening Lapis, he acquired some Spell Cards from her, which under the power of Super Polymerization transformed into entirely new Fusion Spell Cards.
And at that time, he was also inspired by Yusei to enhance his alchemy abilities!
He could feel that his control over Super Polymerization had improved even further! Therefore, today he wanted to test whether he could use alchemy to increase the number of times Super Polymerization could consume "Duel Energy" daily!
This card is a symbol and experiment of that.
"Activate Fusion Spell Card, Gem-Knight Dispersion!"
"Eh?"
"A new fusion?"
"What effect does that fusion have?"
The Tyler Sisters, seeing Tenjo Hikari pull out a brand new Fusion Card, couldn't help but get excited.
This is exactly what they were hoping for!
"This card is a special Fusion Spell Card for Gem-Knights. You can use Fusion Monsters from your hand and field as materials to Fusion Summon one [Gem-Knight] Fusion Monster."
Is that all?
Isn't that just fusion...?
The audience, whose emotions had just been stirred, also felt a bit puzzled.
Is that it?
"But, when there is [Gem-Knight Fusion] in the Graveyard, this card will gain new power!"
What is it?
Everyone curiously stretched their necks.
"When there is Gem-Knight Fusion in your Graveyard, this card allows you to use up to two Gem-Knight Cards from your Deck and Extra Deck that are not Rock-Type as Fusion Materials to Fusion Monster Fusion Summon [Gem-Knight]!"
"What!?" Grace's eyes widened.
"Uh... Extra Deck?" Gloria couldn't maintain her expression, her mouth agape.
"What is going on???" exclaimed a student.
Mitsuzawa Daichi stood up: "What did Hikari say?"
"Wow!!! Such strong effects!" Judai excitedly stood up, "So cool, Hikari's [Polymerization] has taken a step further!"
"I'll send Gem-Knight Garnet from the Deck, and Gem-Knight Topaz from the Extra Deck to the Graveyard!"
"Fusion Summon!"
"Come forth, Gem-Knight Ruby!"
The crimson knight flicked his cape as he stepped onto the battlefield.
Gem-Knight Ruby, LV 6, Earth Attribute, Pyro-Type, ATK 2500.
"To fuse with monsters from the Extra Deck?"
"Not only the field, hand, Graveyard, Deck—now even the Extra Deck monsters aren't spared?"
"Fusion knows no limits!" Tenjo Hikari interrupted the girls' amazement, "Therefore—
The range of fusion is infinite!
Every position, every possibility, is [Fusion]!
It's not over yet!
My fusion!
Normal Summon, Gem-Knight Sapphire, then Spell Card, Particle Fusion!
This is a Gem-Knight Fusion that only fuses monsters on the field. I will fuse Gem-Knight Prismaura, Gem-Knight Ruby, and Gem-Knight Sapphire on the field!"
"Oh radiant king of light—absorb the strength of all your comrades and reveal your most genuine form!"
"Fusion Summon!"
"The king among Gem-Knights!"
"The true form of the Crystal Knight—"
"LV 9, Gem-Knight Master Diamond!"
Brilliant light shone as colorful gems emitted dazzling brilliance.
The courageous knight slowly raised his greatsword, which had swung against injustice and inequality many times before, bursting with a glare brighter than light itself.
Gem-Knight Master Diamond, LV 9, Earth Attribute, Rock-Type, ATK: 2900.
It was White Crystal's first time debuting in this form, and it felt a bit uneasy, because his status in the Knight Order wasn't high enough to become the "Knight King," although his Spirit strength was sufficient, it still felt odd.
"White Crystal's king form?" Judai exclaimed in surprise.
"Eh... Another form for Captain Crystal?" Mitsuzawa Daichi couldn't help but rub his head, "Eh, does that monster have so many forms?"
"But the attack power is only 2900 points—"
"For each [Gem-Knight] monster in the Graveyard, Master Diamond's ATK increases by 100 points."
Gem-Knight Master Diamond, ATK: 2900→3500.
"Moreover, Particle Fusion's ability; when this card Fusion Summons successfully, you can banish it and select one Fusion Material in the Graveyard to increase that monster's attack by that point value. My choice... naturally is Ruby."
Gem-Knight Master Diamond, ATK: 3500→6000!
"6...6 thousand!?"
"Exceeded Cyber End Dragon, exceeded Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon, and even... even surpassed the legendary Five-Headed Dragon!"
The two sisters gazed at this dazzling knight with a sense of wonder, especially Grace who seemed to be a bit captivated by this beautiful monster, while Gloria, who was more concerned with the duel, spoke up: "But its attack power is just 6000... Even combined with XZ, it cannot reduce our life points to zero!"
She punched the air excitedly: "You're strong, very interesting, Tenjo Hikari! But it seems your sisters are still invincible in team battles!"
"Haha... Indeed, you're right; if it's just this, I can't achieve victory."
Is there a twist?
Gloria hesitated for a moment.
"But!"
"Activate Master Diamond's effect: once per turn, banish one Gem-Knight Fusion Monster in the Graveyard with a level of 7 or lower to gain its effects!"
Such an effect exists!?
"Amazing, Master!"
"Hikari's alchemy has become stronger..." Mitsuzawa felt a bit dejected; his progress had been hindered, and he hadn't solved the issue until now.
"Using the power of all comrades, all fusions?" Judai was astonished by the underlying meaning.
The two sisters quickly looked towards Tenjo Hikari's Graveyard.
Prismaura, Ruby, Topaz...
Topaz!
Topaz that was sent to the Graveyard by Dispersion!
"I banish Gem-Knight Topaz, granting Master Diamond its special effect to attack twice per turn!"
Gem-Knight Master Diamond, ATK: 6000→5900.
Gained special abilities.
"No need for Thunder to make another move; he has already paved the way for me, solved the difficulties, crafted the perfect battle stage for me!" Tenjo Hikari raised his hand, "And now, it's about utilizing the advantage Thunder accumulated for me and making the final [Fusion]!"
While speaking, he clenched his fist, while Manjome laughed heartily, mimicking a punch in the void.
9250 life points?
200 life points?
Don't make a mistake, the one flickering like a candle in the wind is you!
"Master Diamond's direct attack on the opponent."
Tyler Sisters: 9250→3350→0.
Each sister took a sword, one half-knelt in thought, while the other collapsed on the ground, eyes glazed over.
Invincible as they were, they lost?
"Ohhhhhhh!!!!"
"Won!!"
"Fusion!!!"
"Tens, hundreds, thousands!!"
"The answer to fusion is Tenjo Hikari!!"
