"Battle, use Thunder Giant to attack Goyo Defender. Oh, attack your second Goyo Defender—the one not properly summoned!"
"Tch, activate Goyo Defender's effect. When this card is targeted for an attack, its ATK increases by 1000 for each Earth Attribute Warrior-Type Synchro Monster, until the end of the damage step!"
Goyo Defender, ATK: 1000→2000.
"Activate Trap Card: Half-Damage Unbreakable.
Select 1 monster on your field to activate. This turn, the selected monster won't be destroyed by battle, and the battle damage it deals to you is halved."
Countless bubbles appear on the monster, shielding it from the electric shock. The shock pierces through the bubbles, ricocheting to Ushio, causing him some damage, but not slowing him down.
Ushio Tetsu, LP: 4000→3800.
"With that, I'll end my turn."
"Then I'll flip my Set Card, Continuous Trap Card: Powerful Rebirth."
A card automatically flips over.
"Activate by targeting 1 Level 4 or lower monster in your Graveyard. Special Summon that monster.
I choose Rose, Warrior of Revenge from the Graveyard."
The red-haired warrior spins and leaps onto the field, sprinting alongside the motorcycle rapidly advancing.
Rose, Warrior of Revenge, LV 4, Fire Attribute, Warrior-Type, ATK 1600.
"The monster revived by Powerful Rebirth increases its level by 1, and its ATK and DEF by 100!"
Rose, Warrior of Revenge, LV: 4→5, ATK: 1600→1700.
Tenjo Hikari watched the police car still pulling away, couldn't help but start checking the map and equipment.
Honestly, this track is quite short, perhaps because it's a 'Pursuit Duel,' so the track is deliberately shortened.
From the track view, he wasn't left too far behind, and at least three-quarters of the race course remained.
However, if Ushio keeps using this defensive tactic, even he would find it difficult to handle.
After all, he's not good at driving and can't just switch to manual mode to catch up.
Moreover, it seems for safety reasons, Manjome set the equipment's speed limit to be stable and safe.
Perhaps he doesn't think there's a risk of losing in the duel, so safety is more important. If it goes too fast and he can't control it, the duel might run into problems.
"My turn!!"
Ushio dramatically draws a card, and in the next second, his speed dramatically increases, surpassing Tenjo Hikari significantly.
Now, a normal Duelist can only rely on the D-wheel's sound to hear each other's voices.
Tenjo Hikari raises an eyebrow.
He had almost forgotten about this—
In 5DS, every turn, a Racing Duel gains a Speed Counter, increasing vehicle speed, but in this dimension, there's no Speed Counter, yet the acceleration feature remains.
If that's the case, Tenjo Hikari's previous calculations would need to be scrapped and redone.
At this speed, if he doesn't finish it quickly next turn, he might just be caught.
"Kid, I watched that Friendship Cup match you had against the duelists from this dimension," Ushio says while drawing a card, "I know you're someone full of courage and integrity.
However, there are differences between dimensions, and you cannot directly compare the things you've seen in your dimension to ours."
"Haha... self-deception?"
"Shut up!" Ushio's face turned serious. "Listen, if you truly wish to return safely to your dimension, don't mention those things again.
If we catch and expedite your repatriation, you'll have a bright future. Otherwise..."
He continues speaking.
In this dimension, there's an organization called the 'Elder Council.' Though there was a recent internal conflict, they now only listen to Officer Goodwin's commands, this doesn't mean the nobles will sit idly by.
Currently, the nobles and upper-class individuals are watching this duel.
He doesn't want this duel, due to Tenjo Hikari's reckless talk, to be a trigger for those people to attack or even conspire for execution: "The duels you've previously seen, at best, can only be considered ordinary duelists of our dimension. Even the strongest Yusei hadn't risen to prominence then.
As someone who accidentally ended up here, I advise you..."
"Accidentally? No, you got it wrong," Tenjo Hikari calmly states, "I came to this dimension due to my true desire! To pursue a higher realm!"
Ushio's eyes widen.
After a long silence: "In that case... I won't hold back."
"Use LV 5 Rose, Warrior of Revenge and LV 3 Goyo Defender for tuning!"
The silhouette of the Warrior of Revenge gradually becomes ethereal, transforming into five transparent stars. Next, these stars become five large green rings, appearing front on the D-wheel.
The first Goyo Defender races forward with a 'heh', charging directly into the rings.
Its body begins to change, gradually, a larger shadow envelops it.
"Let's commence the capturing operation!"
"Come forth!"
"King of the Goyo Race!"
"Goyo King!"
A traditional Japanese warrior, spinning the trident used for capture, with an eccentric dance step, appears before Ushio Tetsu.
Goyo King, LV 8, Earth Attribute, Warrior-Type, ATK 2800.
After Goyo King's appearance, it immediately uses a rope to ensnare Tenjo Hikari's D-wheel, reducing its speed.
