They haven't tried anything because they can't!
They don't have the conditions!
"Ha... Then I'll use——this!"
Tenjo Hikari suddenly held up two cards from his hand, showing them to everyone.
Predaplant Bufolicula, Predaplant Triantis!
"Eh?"
"Me?"
Among the observing Spirits, some creatures that looked similar to the images on the cards instinctively pointed to themselves.
They never imagined that as [Ordinary Spirits], they could appear on the cards.
No—
No way!
A clever mantis quickly realized.
It's not ordinary, it's just that they haven't found a suitable vessel yet!
"Set P-Scale with scale 0 Bufolicula and scale 8 Triantis!"
Tenjo Hikari directly placed them in the Pendulum Zones on both sides of the Duel Disk, and instantly, two massive light pillars emerged around him, with the figures of the toad and mantis gradually appearing.
"Wha-what... what's that?" The three heads of the Three-pronged Flower God were speaking incoherently, their mouths wide open in panic.
What did it see!?
A new... Predaplant!?
No—
A new Predaplant Card!?
Even... an unknown card that was different from what they knew.
"Pendulum Monster, this type of Monster doesn't go to the Graveyard when it leaves the field but enters into the Extra Deck face-up," Tenjo Hikari explained with a smile, "And as long as the scales are suitable, you can Pendulum Summon once per turn."
"Pendulum... Summon?" The Three-pronged Flower God and countless surrounding Spirits asked in astonishment.
"For example, my toad's scale is 0, and the mantis's scale is 8, so I can Pendulum Summon any LV 1 to LV 7 Monsters in any quantity from my hand card or face-up Pendulum Monsters in the Extra Deck."
"Any quantity!?" Many Predaplant Spirits who seldom get summoned widened their eyes upon hearing this.
"I see... using Pendulum Summon to Special Summon more monsters?" As the leader of the Northern Continent's Predaplants, the Strongest Warrior, the Three-pronged Flower God was initially shocked but quickly understood the advantages of this summoning method, which then led to problems. "But if you just want to perform a fusion, there's no need to Special Summon them to the field. Effects like the Sundew Trap Lizard can only be used once per turn, and the same-name cards can't be activated again.
No matter how many monsters you summon, it won't matter..."
"That's not necessarily true."
?!
"In fact, my goal is not that!" Tenjo Hikari's mouth curved into a smile, "I am a Duelist pursuing Extreme Fusion, so I only have one thing I want to do forever!
And that is... Fusion!"
The Three-pronged Flower God's multiple eyes stared unblinkingly at Tenjo Hikari.
Don't tell me...
"Bufolicula has a Pendulum Card effect that activates once per turn during your Main Phase. You can send the Fusion Materials decided by your Dark Attribute Fusion Monster Card from your hand card or field to the Graveyard and Fusion Summon a Fusion Monster from the Extra Deck!"
"Ah?!" A Predaplant Spirit shrieked in surprise, "It's actually a fusion effect!"
There are two issues that Fusion Decks can never escape.
First, Fusion Material; second, Fusion.
No matter what Fusion Deck you're using, you'll face these problems and have to choose between Fusion Material and Fusion Cards.
That's precisely why Tenjo Hikari likes this type of card, such as Sundew Trap Lizard and Aleister the Invoker, because they are not only Fusion Materials but can also be used as Fusion Cards.
"Do you want to Fusion Summon Chimerafflesia?" asked the Three-pronged Flower God, watching the monsters on Tenjo Hikari's field.
Dark Attribute Monsters and Predaplant Monsters can perform a Polymerization to summon Chimerafflesia.
However...
He looked towards his covered cards.
He has a Trap Card covered, Bottomless Trap Hole.
This is a card favored by those plants and insect ladies of the Western Continent of the planet, but having dealt with Spirits for a long time, he had prepared such a card.
Tenjo Hikari wasn't in a hurry.
He first scanned the surroundings to confirm the monster was there, then smiled and said, "Since the Three-pronged Flower God wants the answer, I will certainly showcase my answer."
"Again?"
"Besides Bufolicula, Triantis also has a Pendulum effect—as long as it's in the Pendulum Zone, if you Fusion Summon a Dark Attribute Fusion Monster, the monsters in your Pendulum Zone can be used as Fusion Materials on the field."
Ah!?
The Three-pronged Flower God reacted.
Which means, not only can they be used as Fusion Cards, but also as Fusion Materials, and even perform a "Pendulum Summon"?
He looked at the flower-shaped Duel Disk on his field, at the Pendulum Zones he hadn't noticed before.
"Lord Hikari—don't tell me, you've already thought of the application of fusion right after this peculiar area was created?!"
"Ha, of course, I, Tenjo Hikari, will always—Fusion anywhere, anytime!"
"I activate the effect of Bufolicula, fusing it with Triantis!"
Tenjo Hikari raised his hand, searched for an unfinished card in the Extra Deck.
This was an incomplete card—
Like these auxiliary cards, Tenjo Hikari could try and create many ways, but because Pendulum didn't exist in the world, it never came to be.
