3rd POV:
"California Rolls, Tamago, Cooked Salmon Rolls and Unagi Rolls, 5 piece each please." Ryuji say as he put down his menu. All of his order is cooked type of sushi specific order for Tori since she's still too young to eat raw food.
He turned to Dextra and Kari who were still watching their menu. "Did you two want anything else?"
"We will take one Takoyaki and one salad." Kari says as she closes her menu. On her other side, Yuma was devouring his Onigiri in pure bliss. That is his third one by the way. Kari then ask Ryuji in confused. "Why don't you order anything for yourself?"
Ryuji just smile mysteries while Dextra answer for him. "You don't have to worry; the moment he steps into the restaurant they already know what he will order. After all, he is their most unique customer."
Just as Kari, Tori and Yuma get confused with questions mark about their head, a huge boat of sushi was put before them. But Dextra and Ryuji notice that the one who brought the suship this time isn't the waitress like usual but an old man in chef uniform. This is either the head chef or the owner himself.
While the three still in aware of the suship and wonder if Ryuji can truly eat all of it, the old man sat opposite of Ryuji and introduce himself. "It's nice to meet you Ryuji-kun, I'm Iwana the owner of this restaurant."
Ryuji look up a bit confused. "I don't know why you come directly at me just to introduce yourself, I'm just a normal customer after all."
Iwana give him a friendly smile and answer. "Nothing special, I just wanted to talk with a person that about to complete Gunkan series. I want to see with my own eyes if they worthy to receive my treasure."
"And do you think I worthy?" Ryuji say as he looks directly into Iwana judging eyes.
Iwana let out a satisfied laugh. "To be fair, I don't know, I'm not really good at judge people with my eyes." Talking a deep look at Ryuji, he continues "How about this? After you complete your challenge, come find me in the kitchen we'll have a small test then. For now, enjoy your food and remember you only have 20 minutes left."
The last sentence of Iwana make Ryuji froze for a moment. 'Really? An old man plays this dirty.' Complain slightly in his mind, Ryuji began to speed up his eating speed.
Under everyone astonish eyes, he finished his suship in merely 8 minutes. 'Definitely taste better than the first time I try.' Ryuji pick up his duel disk and head towards the kitchen. "The duel I have today must be boring, doesn't it? How about another to make up for that?"
"Absolutely!" Yuma quickly finished his food and run after him.
Inside the kitchen, Iwana was prepared a tuna when he hears the kitchen door open. With a smile on his mouth, he turns his head, eyes to eyes with Ryuji. "It's barely 10 minutes since I bring that ship to you, are you that eager to take my test?"
Ryuji don't bother answer Iwana and ask curious. "Did you have a duel field in this restaurant? Or did we have to move to other places?"
"There's no need." Iwana search for a hidden button on the wall and press it. Instantly, the surroundings kitchen equipment starts to move back and the wall behind them open and connect them together. Before long the whole area becomes an empty room.
Iwana take his duel disk, hand over by a chef, and ask Ryuji curiously. "How did you know my test was a duel?"
Ryuji just shrug his shoulder and answer calmly. "Is there anyone in this world will treasure a card except for a duelist?"
Iwana: "A collector?"
Ryuji: "There's even less reason for a collector to give one of their collections to a customer for eating their sushi."
"Haha, indeed." Both Ryuji and Iwana activate their duel disk at the same time. "Since you are the challenger, you can have the first turn. Don't you dare to hold back just because I'm an old man."
"If you say so." Ryuji let out an understanding smile. Dextra on the side feel a bit pity for Iwana.
"Duel!" X2
"My turn, draw! I normal summon Rescue Rabbit!" The moment the rabbit appears on the feel, expect for Dextra and Kari, everyone gets confused by this monster. But as his opponent, Iwana feel something wrong with this rabbit. Soon, he will know that he's right.
Outside the field, Yuma and Tori look confused as they can't make sense of why Ryuji had this adorable looking monster in his deck.
Kari notices their confuse and explain. "Although Ryuji deck focus on dinosaur monster, but among all his card the one who gives his opponent the most problem is actually the rabbit you two currently looking at." Hearing Kari explain, Yuma and Tori still feel a bit puzzle but decided to wait and see.
"I activate Rescue Rabbit effect to special summon from my deck 2 normal monster with the same name, I choose Sabersaurus! Then I can special summon this card from my hand if I control 2 or more dinosaur monsters, come ford Dinovatus Docus!"
[Sabersaurus, atk: 1900] X2
[Dinovatus Docus, atk: 1500]
"Dinovatus Docus effect; I can Tribute 1 Level 4 or lower monster; Special Summon 1 Dinosaur monster from my Deck that is 2 Levels higher or lower than the Tributed monster had on the field. I tribute 1 Sabersaurus to summon from my deck 1 Stegocyber.
I overlay Dinovatus Docus and Stegocyber, xyz summon rank 6 Evolzar Solda!"
[Evolzar Solda, atk: 2600]
Looking at the skinny body of the monster before him which continuously release a powerful heat wave, Iwana feel that if he not careful he will not even have the chance to fight back, especially when the pity in gaze of that purple hair girl keep increase for each second passed.
"I'm not done yet! I activate Double Evolution Pill; by banish 1 Dinosaur monster and 1 non-Dinosaur monster from my hand and/or GY, I can special Summon 1 Level 7 or higher Dinosaur monster from my hand or Deck. I banish Sabersaurus from my graveyard and Necroface from my hand. Special summon from my deck level 8 Super Conductor Tyranno!
Necroface effect; If this card is banished: Each player banishes 5 cards from the top of their Deck. Say goodbye to your cards." Watching Iwana gritting his teeth as he removes 5 cards from the top of his deck, Suship deck don't have any card activate upon banish so this is a huge lost for him.
Ryuji look at his banish card and take one of them. "Among my banish card is Kaitoptera, when this card is banished, I can special summon it. During my main phase this card allowed me to add 1 Polymerization from my deck to my hand. Then I overlay Kaitoptera and Sabersaurus to xyz summon Evolzar Laggia. Finally, I set 1 card and end my turn."
[Super Conductor Tyranno, atk: 3300]
[Evolzar Laggia, atk: 2400]
Right now, everyone was already stun from Ryuji play, pull out three boss level monsters in a single turn is no small feat in this world. (Not in real world of course)
Iwana head already full of sweat, the pressure this kid give him is beyond any opponent he has face before. He takes a few deep breaths to calm himself down. He closed his eyes and put his hand on the deck while muttered something before opening his eyes, with a determine look, he draw his card. "Draw!"
"I activate Pot of Greed to draw two more cards from my deck!" Just as Iwana about to draw, an electric shock prevents him to touch his deck, the pot that just appear on his field also got burn to ash. "Huh?"
Ryuji point at his monster and explain. "Evolzar Laggia effect; if my opponent activates a spell card, I can detach 2 materials from this card to negate and destroy that card. I negate and destroy your Pot of Greed."
"It's like that huh... Then I activate Terraforming to add 'Gunkan Sushipyard Seaside Supper Spot' from my deck to my hand, then I activate it." The surrounding start to change, becoming a seaside shipyard catering to sushi-themed ships.
"Next, I activate Painful Decision; I can send 1 Level 4 or lower Normal Monster from my Deck to the Graveyard to add 1 card with the same name as that card from my Deck to my hand. I send Gunkan Suship Shari to the graveyard and add Gunkan Suship Shari Red to my hand."
"Wait wait wait! It said can with the same name, 'Gunkan Suship Shari' and 'Gunkan Suship Shari Red' only have similar name, not the same, you can't do that." Before Ryuji can say anything, Yuma on the other already retort Iwana play. (Yes! I increase Yuma battle iq, seeing the protagonist of Yu-Gi-Oh act like a noob is frustrating)
"That's indeed the case, but Gunkan Suship Shari Red have an effect; This card's name becomes "Gunkan Suship Shari" while in the hand, Deck, GY, or on the field. So, it's completely valid to add it to hand by Painful Decision effect." Ryuji explain for everyone present.
"That's correct." Iwana was not surprised that Ryuji know his card effect, he has collected every Suship monster after all. "Next, I activate Monster Reincarnation; I can discard 1 card, then target 1 monster in your GY; add it to your hand. I add Gunkan Suship Shari to my hand. The card I just send is Card of Compensation which let me draw 2 cards when it was send to graveyard."
"Gunkan Suship Shari Red effect; I can reveal 1 other "Gunkan Suship Shari" in my hand; Special Summon this card from my hand. 'Gunkan Sushipyard Seaside Supper Spot' effect; If I Normal or Special Summon a "Gunkan" monster(s), even during the Damage Step: I can place 1 "Gunkan" card from my Deck on top of my Deck. I place Gunkan Suship Shari on top."
"Then, because of Gunkan Suship Shari Red effect; I can special Summon 1 "Gunkan" monster from my Deck, except "Gunkan Suship Shari", but negate its effects.
Then, special summon from my Extra Deck, 1 Xyz Monster that mentions that Special Summoned monster's name, using that monster and this card as material. This is treated as an Xyz Summon.
Special summon Gunkan Suship Shirauo. I use both monster to xyz summon Gunkan Suship Shirauo-class Carrier!"
In an instant, two monsters appear on Iwana side of the field, two plates full of sushi. Then from a far, a huge ship arrived at the shipyard and take all sushi from the two plates. Just as the ship about to go back to the sea, a thunder suddenly appears on the sky and struck the ship, destroy it instantly.
"W-What happen!?" Iwana was extremely confused, not understand what happened.
"I pay half of my LP to activate Solemn Judgment, negate and destroy your special summon monster." Ryuji point at his trap card.
[Ryuji, LP: 4000 -> 2000]
"Tch! That alone can't stop my Suship! I normal summon Gunkan Suship Ikura and activate it effect; I can excavate the top 3 cards from my Deck, then I can either add to my hand or Special Summon 1 excavated "Gunkan Suship Shari", also shuffle the rest into my Deck. Because of my field spell, the first card is obviously Gunkan Suship Shari, I special summon it.
I overlay both of my monster, xyz summon Gunkan Suship Ikura-class Dreadnought! Activate it effect! If this card is Xyz Summoned: I can apply these effects, in sequence, based on the materials used.
"Gunkan Suship Shari": Draw 1 card.
"Gunkan Suship Ikura": This card can make a second attack during each Battle Phase." Just as the second ship set sail in the sea, another object hit it. Unlike what happened before, this time the Suship got hit by a fireball.
"Evolzar Solda effect; When my opponent Special Summons a monster: I can detach 1 material from this card; destroy that monster." Ryuji look at the burned Suship and sign regretful. "But this effect doesn't negate the special summon or the effect of the monster so you can still draw 1 card because of Ikura-class Dreadnought effect. Go on."
Iwana face darkens as he draws a card out from his deck. "I activate 'Gunkan Sushipyard Seaside Supper Spot' effect; Once per turn, if a face-up "Gunkan" monster I control that was Special Summoned from the Extra Deck is sent to my GY by an opponent's card: Activate this effect; my opponent pays LP exactly equal to that monster's DEF in the GY, then I can Special Summon 1 "Gunkan Suship Shari" from my hand, then Special Summon 1 "Gunkan" Xyz Monster from my Extra Deck, by using that card I control as material. This is treated as an Xyz Summon."
[Ryuji, LP: 2000 -> 1700]
Iwana put his monster on the field and wait for Ryuji response. He doesn't know if Solda effect is once per turn or not; or perhaps Ryuji was waiting for him to xyz summon to active its effect.
Ryuji also thinking hard, wonder if he should stop Iwana xyz summon or not. If he stops it now, then Iwana can find a way to special summon Uni-class Super-Dreadnought later and it'll still have its hard once per turn effect. And if it summons the correct way then it can even attack directly.
"I don't activate Solda effect, now summon your xyz monster." The choice to xyz summon is optional, Ryuji didn't know if Iwana will do that. But his word reveal that Solda effect is not once per turn and threatening Iwana to not summon his xyz monster.
Iwana wonder for a moment but ultimately choose to overlay his Suship. "I summon Gunkan Suship Uni-class Super-Dreadnought! Activate its effect to draw 1 card." Iwana draw 1 card from his deck as he helplessly watching his monster being burn by Ryuji monster once again. "I set 2 card and end my turn."
Iwana looking at his empty field with 2 set card and can't help but feel a bit frustrating. Never in his life has he been in this situation. His deck famous in continuous powerful attack now have no other choice but to play defensive. 'Sign... I'm supposed to be the boss here, doesn't it? Seriously, is this my test or your test?'
