"If this attack succeeds, that duelist over there will have only 700 Life Points left!"
"As expected of the symbol of our company, the Legendary Duelist! Even if you lose a little bit of Life Points in the first turn, it's really no big deal!"
"Amazing, Mr. Dinosaur!"
The clueless onlookers began to cheer for Dinosaur Lyuzaki.
"Go for it, over there!!" Some scattered spectators, not knowing who Tenjo Hikari was, simply cheered him on.
"Super-Ancient Dinobeast, attack the Ancient Gear Howitzer!"
The silver-blue dinosaur stepped forward, grabbed the Ancient Gear Howitzer with one claw, opened its mouth, and crushed the monster.
"Next, I will attack directly..."
"Wait, at this moment, the effect of Ancient Gear Howitzer also activates!" Tenjo Hikari shouted loudly, "When this card is destroyed by battle and sent to the Graveyard, you can activate it. Special Summon 1 'Ancient Gear' monster from your Deck ignoring its conditions!"
"I Special Summon Ancient Gear Golem from my Deck in Defense Position, ignoring its summoning conditions!"
Ancient Gear Golem, LV 8, Earth Attribute, Machine-Type, DEF 3000.
"Oh?" Dinosaur Lyuzaki paused for a moment and then smiled.
"Wow, with 3000 DEF, even the Blue-Eyes White Dragon can't destroy such a powerful monster! Summoned just like that?"
"But even if it has 3000 DEF, it can't rival the Super Conductor Tyranno!"
"Exactly, that's our pride, Mr. Dinosaur!"
Dinosaur Lyuzaki laughed and, as if responding to the audience, shouted loudly: "Battle! Super Conductor Tyranno, crush that mere machine!"
Although the Super Conductor Tyranno was also entirely mechanically modified, he still shouted this, and then the giant dinosaur lunged forward, smashing the machine.
"Set one card, end my turn!"
Concise and clear, he set a card and directly ended his turn.
"That's kind of impressive." Tierra remarked with some surprise upon seeing this situation, "I thought these so-called legends and professionals were just gimmicks."
Tenjo Hikari drew a card, contemplating his tactics, while on the other side, Tierra tilted her head and continued, "That being said, formerly it was just a general feeling, but now seeing it like this, Tenjo Hikari, the Human Duelist in front of you, seems a bit abnormal."
"Abnormal?" Upon hearing this, Tenjo Hikari finally stopped pretending he hadn't heard it, lowered his voice, and asked her, "What do you mean? He seems just like an ordinary human to me."
"But he's not ordinary at all... rather, he's quite disastrous." Tierra considered her words carefully and said, "Tenjo Hikari, this human's Spirit Adaptability is probably a negative number."
???
"What do you mean??" Tenjo Hikari looked at his hand while thinking and asking.
"The so-called Spirit Adaptability, according to your human Kaiba Company's standards, is the level at which a person can duel against a spirit of the same level of strength without directly dying from the loss of Life Points.
Like you, for example, you are LV 5, so if you duel against an LV 5 spirit, even if you lose 4000 LP, as long as it's not a Darkness Duel, you won't die.
But the human in front of you has a negative adaptability."
She tilted her head, "Even the most ordinary human should presumably have LV 1, but the one in front of you is completely negative. It doesn't seem like a normal situation, more like something extracted."
"I see, I think I roughly understand now."
So, this world must have experienced the "Doma" event...
Well, it makes sense. Since Dark Magician Girl can give him a 'Dark Magician Girl the Dragon Knight', of course, they went through such experiences.
In the original Yu Gi Oh anime, the first series, they created a character called "Dartz," an ancient figure who did all sorts of things through the power of Orichalcos, and the legendary dragons sought someone to help them defeat Dartz.
In this process, Dinosaur Lyuzaki was coaxed by his "good buddy" Insector Haga to join the Doma Organization, then got the Seal of Orichalcos and a heap of powerful cards, and eventually lost a duel to Jonouchi, got sealed by the Seal of Orichalcos and became nourishment for the God of Orichalcos until Muto Yugi finally defeated Dartz, and only then did he return to his body.
So, this world did experience that event.
Because he couldn't quite figure out what kind of situation Kaiba Seto was in, Tenjo Hikari always assumed that Kaiba in his world should be the movie version Kaiba, but now it seems it's not like that.
Tenjo Hikari scanned through his cards.
Hmm...
The monsters on the opposing side's field are a bit strong.
Their ATK is too high!
Although they are monsters without Resistance, these two have a starting ATK of 2700 and there's even one with 3300 on the field, making it really tough to deal with.
First of all, the Super-Ancient Dinobeast definitely can't be left there.
If not, the more revival cards there are, the lower the opponent's hand card consumption will be, and that can't be accepted.
Given that...
"I discard the Thunder Dragon from my hand to activate its effect, adding another Thunder Dragon from the Deck to my hand. Then activate it again to add it to my hand once more."
"Hmm? What's this strange operation."
"How odd, can't Thunder Dragon just be taken in two copies at once?"
"Haha, maybe he's been beaten a bit dazed by Mr. Dinosaur."
Dinosaur Lyuzaki stared intently at Tenjo Hikari.
He remembered this move.
"Next, I activate the Spell Card, Thunder Dragon Fusion! This card allows me to return the Fusion Material from the field, Graveyard, or banished zone back to the Deck to Fusion Summon a Thunder-Type Fusion Monster!"
"I return the two Thunder Dragons in the Graveyard to the Deck, Fusion Summon – Twin-Headed Thunder Dragon!"
Twin-Headed Thunder Dragon, LV 7, Light Attribute, Thunder-Type, ATK 2800.
"Wow, so that's how the fusion works?!"
"Hey, this technique feels so familiar—"
"Wait, isn't that the guy?! The student who appeared on the previous live stream and dueled the X-Dimension Duelist!"
"It's Tenjo Hikari, the 'Fusion Immortal'."
What Fusion Immortal???
"Hahaha, Fusion Immortal, Tenjo Hikari, the Fusion Immortal!" Tierra couldn't help but burst into laughter.
"Not only saved resources but also performed a fusion, a beautiful move, yet—if you think that simply raising a wall will get you through the battle, it's not that simple!"
"Not that simple, huh..." Tierra glanced at Tenjo Hikari's hand cards, "Hey, Tenjo Hikari, use this next turn and pound that guy across you a few punches hard!"
"Hmm, it might not be that effective." Tenjo Hikari felt it might be a bit difficult.
"Battle, use Twin-Headed Thunder Dragon to attack Super-Ancient Dinobeast."
The oddly shaped double-headed dragon charged at the winged land dinosaur; the land dinosaur spat out lasers, trying to stop the monster's assault. However, it never expected that this monster had two heads, and the other head took a bite, smashing its body.
Dinosaur Lyuzaki LP: 2400→2300.
"I activate the effect of the Thunder Dragon in my hand, discard it, and add the two returned Thunder Dragons to my hand. Then, set a card, end my turn."
"Wow, truly intense, monsters with ATK over 2500 appearing so casually!"
"Amazing, even more exciting than what we see on TV."
"It's such a thrill to be able to witness this up close."
"Speaking of which, why is Tenjo Hikari here anyway?"
The staff, upon hearing such discussions, wanted to disperse the crowd, but the keen-eared Dinosaur Lyuzaki had already heard this and laughed heartily, saying, "Isn't it obvious!
It's quite simple, because we are about to witness the rise of a new duelist, a powerful duelist, a duelist who champions fusion!"
"Kid, don't think it's over just yet, the duel has just begun!"
"My turn, draw, then activate the Normal Spell Card, Ultimate Evolution Pill! You can activate this by banishing one Dinosaur-Type monster and one non-Dinosaur-Type monster from your Hand or Graveyard. Special Summon 1 Dinosaur-Type monster of LV 7 or higher ignoring its summoning conditions from your hand or deck!"
"Ah!?" Tierra exclaimed in surprise.
"Wow!!" The audience gasped.
Even Tenjo Hikari couldn't help but be startled.
This Dinosaur Lyuzaki...
So strong?!
"I banish the Jurrac Brachis from my hand and the Armored Lizard in my Graveyard."
"Witness this, the might of the dinosaurs, this new super-rare monster card that I boast of!"
"Hahaha—"
"Special Summon—Jurrac Titano!"
Boom—
In the roar that seemed to tear his vocal cords, the entire arena suddenly became unbearably hot; the temperature rose abruptly, making the already somewhat sweltering weather intensify as if it could warp things.
A dinosaur with sharp fangs and claws, covered in spikes, its skin blazing with the heat of molten lava appeared roaring.
Jurrac Titano, LV 9, Fire Attribute, Dinosaur-Type, ATK 3000!
