"I Special Summon, the LV 4 Tuner Monster Ransha no Shama!"
"This guy filled the field in an instant..."
"These two are truly terrifying."
"They are using Synchro's characteristics to the fullest!"
Tenjo Hikari looked at the scene, unable to keep from frowning.
A Blackwing deck is indeed a former champion's deck, its Special Summon ability is truly exaggerated.
"Use the LV 4 Shama and LV 6 Simoon for Tuning!"
"The black whirlwind, commanding the wings of the sky!
Appear fully, with full armor!
Synchro Summon!
LV 10, Blackwing Full Armor Master!"
Click, the bullet was loaded, a black bird-man warrior silently loaded bullets into his handgun, then lifted a gigantic longsword, expressionlessly watching the opponent.
Blackwing Full Armor Master, LV 10, Dark Attribute, Winged Beast-Type, Attack Power 3000.
"Attack Power 3000! Just like Red Dragon Archfiend!"
"But... the aura is completely different!"
"Activate the effect of Shama in the Graveyard. While this card is in the Graveyard, if you control a Blackwing Synchro Monster or a Special Summoned Black-Winged Dragon, banish this card and target 1 Blackwing Monster in your Graveyard. Add that monster to your hand!
I'll add Gale to my hand."
"He also retrieved a card that can place Black Whirlwind?"
"It's really identical—"
"With this effect, I will take 700 points of damage—but the effect of Black-Winged Dragon states that if I take effect damage, I place a Black Feather Counter instead of taking the damage.
For every Black Feather Counter on Black-Winged Dragon, its Attack Power decreases by 700."
Black-Winged Dragon, ATK: 2800→2100.
"Activate the effect of Zephyros the Elite in the Graveyard, returning 1 face-up card I control to my hand. Special Summon this card, and take 400 points of damage. I'll return Black Whirlwind to my hand."
Black-Winged Dragon, ATK: 2100→1400.
"Activate Black-Winged Dragon's effect. Remove all counters, target 1 monster on your opponent's field, that monster's Attack Power decreases by the number of counters removed x 700 points, and inflict damage equal to the amount reduced!"
He pointed at Divine Bow: "I choose Divine Bow, reducing its Attack Power by 1400, and inflicting 1400 points of damage to you!"
Black-Winged Dragon's feather-like wings glowed red, and then they swiftly covered the queen bee, causing her Attack Power to plummet and inflicting damage to Shinji.
"These two, not only are their Synchro processes identical, but they're also dealing effect damage to each other, torturing each other madly..."
"Why is this happening, when both their duels are the same."
Shinji, LP: 4000→2600.
Divine Bow, ATK: 2400→1000.
"They reduced the Attack Power and Life Points!" Ushio calculated slightly and said, "If all attacks go through, then obviously Shinji loses—"
"Battle! Attack with Blackwing Full Armor Master!"
Shinji gritted his teeth and roared: "Don't even think about it!!!"
"Flip over the Set Card!"
"Urgent Tuning!"
"Activate during your or your opponent's Battle Phase! Synchro Summon 1 Synchro Monster!"
"I'll use the LV 6 Tuner Monster Divine Bow and the LV 6 Assault for Tuning!"
"The membrane wings and stinger carve out the path to reality!
Manifest as the ultimate weapon of rebellion, pave the way for us!"
"Synchro Summon! LV 12, Battlewasp - Ballista the Armageddon!"
A huge mechanical bee appeared in the sky, bending its neck, a gigantic ballista mounted on its stinger, aimed sharply at Crow.
Battlewasp - Ballista the Armageddon, LV 12, Wind Attribute, Insect-Type, Attack Power 3000.
"When Battlewasp - Ballista the Armageddon is Special Summoned, banish all Insect-Type monsters from the Graveyard to activate. All monsters your opponent controls lose Attack Power and Defense Power equal to the number of your banished Insect-Type monsters x 500 points!"
"I banished 6, so all your monsters lose 3000 Attack Power and Defense Power!"
Black-Winged Dragon, ATK: 2800→0.
Phantom Glimmer Token, DEF: 1400→0.
Zephyros the Elite, ATK: 1600→0.
"...Blackwing Full Armor Master is unaffected by other card effects!"
"Tch—" Shinji gritted his teeth and snorted coldly "But the Attack Power is the same!"
Crow wouldn't attack foolishly and continued: "So, the effect of Blackwing Full Armor Master, as long as this card is in the Monster Zone, every time a monster your opponent controls activates its effect, place a Wedge Counter on that opponent's face-up monster!"
Full Armor Master raised the handgun in his left hand and shot at the ballista, leaving a mark on its barrel.
"When that ballista is destroyed, you can Special Summon 3 banished LV 11 or lower Insect-Type monsters, pair with your Battlewasp, then search for a card and continue Synchro Summoning next turn, right?"
"You of course know—" Shinji did not refute.
This tactic had been seriously discussed between the two of them.
Back then, they prepared this tactic to resist the upper echelons together, just to lead the people of the Lower City Area to a better life.
However—
Unbeknownst to them, a rift had already formed.
"Then, I activate Blackwing Full Armor Master's third effect, once per turn, take control of 1 monster on the opponent's field with a Wedge Counter!"
The massive ballista bee was forcibly dragged by the Earthbound Immortal's power onto Crow's field: "Then, just don't let it get destroyed—the effect of Phantom Glimmer Token, Tribute 1 monster on your field, Special Summon 1 Phantom Glimmer Token to your field, then take 700 points of damage!"
Phantom Glimmer Token, LV 2, Dark Attribute, Winged Beast-Type, DEF 700.
Black-Winged Dragon, Black Feather Counter: 0→1.
The massive ballista slowly disintegrated, ultimately transforming into a small silver crow.
With this, Shinji's field was completely empty!
"Crow!!!"
"Shinji!!!"
"Why can't you understand me? To defeat the upper echelons, we must stop at nothing and eliminate all possible enemies!!"
"Let go of that thought, protect everyone, and ensure no one gets hurt, that's the right way!!"
Once again, they roared at each other, clashing with all their might.
Unbeknownst to them, they had already gone to extremes in two different directions!
