Chimeric Rampage Dragon, summon!
"According to the effect of the Chimeric Rampage Dragon, send two 'Original Cyber Dragons' from the deck to the grave, allowing for two additional attacks this turn."
Marufuji Ryo drew the two cards from the deck search, briefly displayed them, and sent them to the graveyard.
"Therefore, considering the original attack, the Chimeric Rampage Dragon can attack three times this turn!"
"Destroying the backfield plus multiple attacks." Yugen nodded, "And it's three consecutive strikes, surpassing the Twin Dragons' killing power. Is this your evolution?"
"And because of the 'Great Cosmos' destruction, cards can now enter the graveyard." Marufuji Ryo said, "I then activate the magic card 'Angel's Charity' from my hand.
Draw three cards from the deck, then discard two cards from your hand."
Marufuji Ryo drew three cards, and without hesitation, selected two of them to discard.
"Then, normal summon 'Electronic Dark Wing Blade'!"
[Electronic Dark Wing Blade, Attack Power 800]
Caesar's newfound power, Electronic Dark, finally landed after a difficult battle.
"The effect of Electronic Dark Wing Blade, when this card is successfully summoned, equip a Dragon-type monster of level 4 or below from the graveyard to this card!" (original effect)
After becoming a physical card, it was weakened to allow only level 3 or below, limiting its hitting power.
"I just discarded the second 'Hell Dragon' from my hand due to 'Angel's Charity'."
Caesar said in a deep voice.
"Let's equip 'Hell Dragon' from the grave!"
Cables protruded from Electronic Dark Wing Blade, reaching into the swirling graveyard below like tentacles, as if capturing prey from the Netherworld.
Hell Dragon was completely covered in cables, yanked up and attached under Electronic Dark Wing Blade.
[Electronic Dark Wing Blade, Attack Power 800→Attack Power 2800]
"Electronic Dark, Caesar's new power." Judai's eyes lit up with excitement, "Looks impressive!"
But he shook his head regretfully as he spoke.
"Ah, if only I could duel with Caesar now. Damn, why wasn't I chosen for the graduation duel..."
Marufuji Shou looked at the dark electronic monster on the field, feeling an unexplainable unease.
He felt that his brother now seemed different from before.
"Electronic Dark, with the ability to equip Dragon-type monster, can instantly gain attack power equivalent to upper-level monsters even if it's lower-level." Yugen smiled, "But, is that really okay? Isn't it leaving your old friends out?"
Marufuji Ryo smiled.
"I understand now, dueling is just for victory. If you always fight alongside a loser, even my old friends will be disappointed, right?"
He waved his hand.
"Battle! Chimeric Rampage Dragon's attack, the first strike! Attack 'Truck Robot'!"
A tyrannical stream of light roared out mechanically, blasting the anthropomorphic truck on Yugen's field to pieces first.
"Then the second strike." Marufuji Ryo continued, "Chimeric Rampage Dragon's second attack, this time attacking 'Submarine Robot'!"
Rampage Dragon's second strike blasted the submarine into pieces under the explosive stream of light.
"Third strike!" Marufuji Ryo shouted, "This time it's a direct attack!"
Rampage Dragon's third strike. Yugen closed his eyes, letting the flaming hologram impact pass over him.
[Yugen, LP 4000→LP 1900]
The scene began to stir.
It seemed like Caesar was going to win this?
The Rampage Dragon, which could sweep the backfield and perform three consecutive strikes, dominated all cards on the opponent's field. Yugen now faced an empty field against the Five Emperors Dragon and Electronic Dark Wing Blade.
Any attack from them would seal Caesar's victory!
"Electronic Dark Wing Blade's direct attack!" Marufuji Ryo shouted loudly.
Many students outside the field held their breath, countless pairs of eyes focused sharply on the field, more tense than Caesar himself.
It's true. Marufuji Ryo, in contrast, didn't hold his breath or widen his eyes.
Because he knew, this guy wouldn't fall so easily.
"Then the effect of 'Kite Robot' in my hand."
Yugen sent the card in his hand to the graveyard.
"Kite Robot sent from hand to grave can make the battle damage of one direct attack turn into 0."
The residual shadow of the kite appeared, and Electronic Dark's strike hit the kite barrier, inflicting no damage.
The Five Emperors Dragon opened its five dragon mouths simultaneously, converging the impact of earth, water, fire, wind, and darkness into a colorful cannon roaring out magnificently.
"Then the second effect of Kite Robot, when this card exists in the graveyard, there's a chance to make the battle damage turn into 0."
Yugen showed the Kite Robot just sent to the grave, transparent shadows reappeared. The colorful cannon hit the barrier, 5000 outputs dissipating invisibly again.
"Then set one card, end turn." Marufuji Ryo said.
Some standing students couldn't help but sit back down, others couldn't help feeling sorry, beginning to lament for Marufuji Ryo.
What a pity, seemed just a little off.
Marufuji Ryo's attack this round already seemed fierce enough, clearing the backfield and having a total of five attacks, including the legendary 5000 attack Five Emperors Dragon, yet even such couldn't breach this defense...
"Ryo..."
Principal Jiaodao on the spectator stand had a complex expression.
Although he followed the Electronic School founder's request to seal away the Electronic Dark and still didn't agree with Marufuji Ryo snatching the Electronic Dark deck, he had to admit seeing the other party control the surface and inner electronic stream of power proficiently—even with powerful monsters newly developed from the surface stream—brought a few comforts.
Even he had to reluctantly admit, the transformed Marufuji Ryo indeed felt stronger than before. Just a few days ago, he personally experienced that he as a teacher was no longer a match for Marufuji Ryo.
Have his long-held insistences been wrong?
Thinking this, Jiaodao's expression turned more peculiar as he looked at Yugen.
A year ago, when this person entered school, he couldn't imagine he would become the Duel King on campus in just a short year.
Even less could he imagine the impact Yugen would have on all students, including his own prized student, and the atmosphere of Duel Academy in this brief time.
Whether it's good or bad remains unclear...
"Then my turn, draw card."
Yugen looked at the drawn card, suddenly smiling mysteriously.
"Since Caesar has chosen to abandon old friends for victory, please allow me to borrow one for victory then."
With that, he revealed a card from his hand.
"When there are monsters on the opponent's field, and no monsters on my field, this card can be special summoned directly from the hand.
I special summon 'Cyber Dragon'!"
Marufuji Ryo: "???"
