Slifer the Sky Dragon!
The legendary Egyptian God at the pinnacle of Duel Monsters, one of the supreme existences ruling over all things, the Netherworld deity Osiris!
Now everyone in the circle knows that since the Pharaoh's Soul within Muto Yugi departed, all three existing Egyptian God cards have been concentrated in the hands of Duel King Youyu.
...Oh yes, there are rumors that President Kaiba Seto also seems to have the ability to conjure cards out of thin air and summon the Giant Soldier from the ground, but these are just rumors. Few people have seen it with their own eyes, and such storytelling is too fantastical and absurd, so most people don't believe it.
So, Slifer appearing here means that Duel King Youyu himself has arrived!
This made the dueling duelists feel invigorated, and many loyal supporters of the Duel King couldn't help but cheer enthusiastically.
A certain Mr. Mai, who was caught between duelists and blasting aliens, laughed out loud and pointed at the aliens in front of him, saying, "Haha, you guys had a chance to run just now, but now you're done for..."
Seeing the Sky Dragon's support, the already excited sand sculptures became even more vigorous. They played cards with great effort and pulled card decks with even greater effort...
Many aliens had never seen such tactics before and were immediately baffled by the sand sculptures. These people seemed like invaders themselves, and after defeating the enemy, the first thing they did was rush to grab card decks and Duel Discs, as if they were more interested in the enemy's card decks than in the goal of "repelling the invaders and defending their homeland."
The alien soldiers were dumbfounded. They had roamed across the stars, conquered countless galaxies, and never seen such a weird scene.
Slifer took action.
The red giant dragon coiled in the sky, its massive body resembling a dark cloud covering a large area below. It opened its mouth, golden electricity gathered within, and a beam accompanied by thunder blasted forth like a cannon piercing the heavens!
Superconducting Wave - Thunder Cannon!!!
The thunderous boom seemed to explode in everyone's ears, the sound waves like drumsticks pounding against eardrums. Everyone on the island clearly saw the beam tearing through the sky, piercing through the alien fleet.
Lightning bombs continuously detonated, spacecraft exploded one after another, turning into fireballs across the sky. The beam and lightning continued to penetrate the entire fleet and continued along the wormhole in the sky.
The thick golden beam broke into the cave, striking the heart of darkness, as if hitting the core hidden deep within. Even as the radiance faded, the thunder continued to roll.
With just one shot, a large space in the vortex in the sky was cleared.
The Sky Dragon twisted its body, its gigantic form charged at incredible speed toward the wormhole like a red lightning bolt.
In the sky, a tiny shadow closely followed beside it.
That was Youyu.
At this moment, Youyu was being carried by the Dark Magician Girl, both enveloped in a protective shield constructed by complex magic arrays, like being wrapped in a thin eggshell.
Although Youyu's Dark Magician Girl was a bit silly, her mastery of Black Magic was quite decent. Her Defense Magic could isolate the influence of outer space environments, and her creative spells could provide the necessary oxygen for breathing.
So while her combat ability among Youyu's spirits might not be outstanding, she was quite good as a steed.
At this time, Elemental Hero Neos also landed beside Judai.
"Judai, Mr. Youyu has cleared a direct path to the other side of the wormhole, this is a great opportunity!" he reminded, "Let's go follow him!
Defeating the rampant 'Light of Destruction' is our mission!"
Yubel muttered something, seemingly feeling that such matters were too dangerous and should be left to Youyu, suggesting that Judai should just relax in the back...
But Judai directly ignored her.
"Sure, sure!" Judai excitedly pulled Neos by the arm, "Let's hurry before we can't catch up with the teacher later!"
Yubel: "..."
Watching the Sky Dragon taking the lead, already halfway there, suddenly a flash of light emerged from beyond the black hole, and an incandescent beam abruptly shot out, intercepting Slifer head-on!
This attack came from the other side of the wormhole, sudden and without any warning. As Slifer prepared to charge up a "Super Conducting Wave," there was no time, so it only opened the second mouth on top of its head, firing a "Summon Thunderball" head-on!
The cannon fire from beyond the black hole was truly unprecedented, on a completely different level from previous attacks by spaceships and warships. Under that shell's radiance, everything seemed dim, and when the energy surged out from the wormhole, the earth wailed as if on the brink of collapse, and restless gales swept the horizon.
Though it might have been an illusion, that single incandescent beam seemed enough to sweep across the entire planet!
The Summon Thunderball collided head-on with the white light, but the Thunderball with Slifer's Divine Power couldn't fully neutralize it, yet it succeeded in deflecting the trajectory of that cannon fire.
The beam of white incandescence arced through the air, redirecting its angle, shooting obliquely towards the horizon.
The clouds were torn into a massive gap, the beam pierced the sky, flew out of the atmosphere, and disappeared into the dark, boundless cosmos.
A huge gap was left in the thick, dark clouds mid-air.
Everyone on the island genuinely felt the terrifying, world-destroying power. No one doubted that if that cannon fire had landed, it would have at least been enough to evaporate the entire island on the spot.
If it weren't for the presence of the Egyptian God, the consequences would have been unimaginable!
The source of that power soon appeared before everyone's eyes.
A mass of darkness appeared at the portal, slowly emerging from it, gradually revealing its full form.
It was a battleship like a Profound Iron Black Sword, covered in purple-black patterns. It moved out slowly, its engines silent, like a sleeping beast. The propulsion flames emitted silently from the tail.
It overshadowed the sky, like a massive steel cloud covering the island, enveloping everything in despair.
Many were stunned, staring up at the terrifying warship, speechless for a long time.
Of course, the sand sculptures remained as lively as ever. It was clearly an enemy ship, yet many were overwhelmed with excitement, gesturing and dancing.
"Wow! Dark Eclipser! Star Wars!"
"Star Destroyer! Damn, it really is a Star Destroyer!"
"..."
This ship, or rather the card it corresponds to in the Yu-Gi-Oh system, is named "Kozmo Dark Eclipser."
Its prototype hails from a well-known sci-fi movie series — "Star Wars," specifically a fusion of the "Eclipse" and "Executor" from the Star Wars series.
As its name suggests, it is a Star Destroyer.
