Starving Venom Fusion Dragon, LV 8, Dark Attribute, Dragon-Type, Attack Power 2800!
"Fusion Dragon!"
"Long time no see."
"But... even if it's fused, it's still Dark Attribute, right?"
Some spectators were discussing the effect of the Fusion Dragon: "Fusion Dragon can copy the effect of one monster on the opponent's field; if it can copy the effect of Clear Vicious Knight, it could indeed ignore the effect of Clear World.
But—Clear Vicious Knight has Safe Zone, so Tenjo can't copy that effect, right?"
That's right.
Although Fusion Dragon can copy monster effects, if it can't target them, even Fusion Dragon can't copy the effect.
"Fusion Dragon's effect. Activates when this card is successfully fusion summoned. This card's attack power increases by the attack power of one Special Summoned monster on the opponent's field until the end of the turn.
Clear Vicious Knight's attack power is 2300 plus Fusion Dragon's 2800 points, so the attack power is 5100 points, and Fusion Dragon increases by 5100 points, making the attack power 7900!"
"7900!"
"Hiss, it's almost catching up with Ryo's Power Bond Cyber End Dragon."
"But still can't attack..."
Yeah, no matter how high the attack, if it can't attack, it can't attack...
"7900? That's quite an attack power, but, Tenjo Hikari, that attack power is useless." Fujiwara Yusuke confidently crossed his arms, looking completely unconcerned, "Why not abandon your so-called fusion and join darkness instead."
"Yusuke!" At this moment, Fubuki, who was watching Fujiwara Yusuke's performance, got angry and shouted, "You're underestimating him too much, Tenjo Hikari is the greatest pride of Duel Academy, our pride, and the absolute Fusion Master, don't think he will give up!
Don't say anything insulting to Tenjo Hikari!"
Fujiwara Yusuke was stunned, looking at Tenjouin Fubuki in disbelief.
The friend he remembered, would say such things to him?!
Fubuki actually somewhat blamed himself.
He hadn't arrived at the school in time, and as a senior, he didn't help his juniors, causing Tenjo Hikari to have to seek him out; he cursed himself for not discovering the secret of darkness earlier, resulting in many juniors falling unconscious, unable to wake up until now; he couldn't accept that, despite vaguely remembering Fujiwara Yusuke, he didn't save him, and let him start dueling with Tenjo Hikari.
All of this was his failure as a senior.
As a result, Tenjo was now in a tough battle.
"Senior Fubuki, don't worry—" Tenjo Hikari sensed Fubuki's emotional change, realizing that Fubuki wasn't someone who easily got angry, and now he even scolded an old friend, showing clearly his inner sadness and grief.
"No matter what difficulties, obstacles, or threats, I will not fear—I will continue with my fusion."
Then, he smiled, as if to encourage his classmates, seniors.
"After all...
Fusion is the noblest method of summoning!"
Just one sentence, and Fubuki felt the shadows in his heart were suddenly cleared away.
Hearing this sentence, even Amon, who had never seen Tenjo Hikari say this, couldn't help but show a "we all understand" smile.
Only Fujiwara Yusuke, upon hearing this sentence, was clueless and completely dismissive: "What do you mean fusion is the noblest summoning method, you can't do anything now—"
"No, I still can." Tenjo Hikari directly interrupted his opponent's speech.
"Watch carefully, my chosen [future], my chosen [possibility].
Activating the effect of Fusion Substitute from the graveyard, returning Invoked Mechaba from the graveyard to the deck, banishing this card, and drawing one card."
Tenjo Hikari placed his right hand on the top of the deck, and the card automatically emitted a faint glow, appearing in his hand.
Oh—
Is it this?
Tenjo Hikari raised an eyebrow.
"Activate the set card!"
Set card...
Set card?!
Fujiwara Yusuke looked at Tenjo Hikari's other set card.
There's another one, what does this card do?!
"Trap Card, Fusion Reserve! Reveal one Fusion Monster from the extra deck for the opponent to see, and add one Fusion Material Monster listed on that monster's card name from the deck to the hand. Afterwards, you can add one Fusion from your graveyard to the hand.
Of course, I don't have a Fusion in my graveyard right now.
I reveal the Fusion Monster from the extra deck... Dual Avatar - Empowered Mitsu-Jaku!"
...Who?
Next to Tenjo Hikari, a warrior full of Chinese spirit gently shimmered and appeared, standing there.
"I add its Fusion Material, Dual Avatar Feet - Kokoku to my hand!" Tenjo Hikari raised his hand, and a card automatically flew out from the deck, appearing in Tenjo Hikari's hand.
"Then, Spell Card—Dual Avatar Invitation!
Discard one card from your hand, and Special Summon as many Light Attribute, Warrior-Type, LV 2, Attack Power 0, Defense Power 0 Dual Avatar Spirit Tokens as possible. This turn, unless performing a Fusion Summon, you cannot Special Summon from the extra deck, and Tokens on your field cannot be released and will be destroyed at the end phase.
Afterwards, I can apply this effect twice: send the Fusion Material decided by a 'Dual Avatar' Fusion Monster Card from your hand or field to the graveyard and Fusion Summon one Fusion Monster from the extra deck!"
"Ah?"
This one card serves as both Fusion Material and Fusion Spell.
"Sacrifice, Aleister the Invoker, come, summon the power of the Dual Avatar!"
As Tenjo Hikari moved, countless stars fell from the sky into this clear world, transforming into blue and purple spirit bodies.
