"The God of Destruction descends!" Judai slammed the card in his hand, "Obelisk the Tormentor!!!"
The wind howled fiercely, scorching winds swept across the land, leaving everything in ruins! A blue storm shot straight into the sky, and the giant descended with boundless divine might from the rolling black clouds!
The existence that reigns over everything on this planet, the Guardian of the Land, Obelisk the Tormentor!
[Obelisk the Tormentor, ATK 4000]
Everyone was stunned.
"Obelisk? Is it really that Obelisk!?"
"That student summoned an Egyptian God!?"
"Isn't it said that only specific duelists can control the Egyptian gods?"
The level of shock at this event was unmatched by anyone, except perhaps Marik and his sister.
"Impossible!" Marik exclaimed in disbelief, "Only the Pharaoh and the Priests can control the Three Egyptian Gods. Any attempts by others to summon the gods will only lead to destruction!"
He then realized he had slightly overlooked something.
After all, there's Duel King Youyu, an exception.
However, Mr. Marik had long accepted this setup. In his view, Mr. Youyu was Mr. Youyu, unique and extraordinary, capable of achieving anything unimaginable.
But how can this jellyhead boy do it too?
"Yuki Judai, personally selected disciple of Duel King Youyu." Ishizu murmured, "This child indeed has something remarkable about him."
Of course, the Obelisk summoned by Judai here was the physical card effect version.
Because the original Obelisk used by Youyu was extracted through Skill Drain, it couldn't be gifted, only used by himself.
"Obelisk the Tormentor, another of the Egyptian Gods guarding this planet." Even Light of Destruction appeared to remain calm, "You continue to surprise me."
"It's not over yet!" Judai shouted, "Activate the Magic Card 'Miracle Contact' from my hand! Return the Fusion Material Monsters on the field and in the graveyard to the Deck to Fusion Summon an Elemental Hero Fusion Monster using 'Elemental Hero Neos' as material!"
The cards from Judai's graveyard popped up one by one.
"I return 'Elemental Hero Neos,' 'Neo-Spacian Grand Mole,' and 'Neo-Spacian Dark Panther' to the Deck for Contact Fusion!"
Neos and the two Neo-Spacians flew out from the graveyard to mid-air. The two Neo-Spacian heroes transformed into golden and black beams respectively and overlapped onto Neos, merging into the depths of the cosmos as if summoning a miraculous force from the distant stars!
Triple Contact Fusion!
"Crush the galaxy, mysterious light——
——Elemental Hero Nebula Neos!!!"
The orb of light flew in from beyond the stars, transforming into the stance of a hero! The brilliance scattered, the hero donned heavy armor, with an energy core shining like a sapphire on his chest, topped with what seemed like a Nebulous Hole leading to the outer sky!
[Elemental Hero Nebula Neos, ATK 3000]
The audience was almost dumbfounded.
"In one turn, he not only summoned the legendary 'Obelisk the Tormentor,' but also consecutively summoned so many monsters nearing that level..."
"Is he really a student at Duel Academy?"
"What kind of monsters come out of Duel Academy!?"
Judai continued, "Elemental Hero Nebula Neos, activate effect! Upon successful summon, draw cards from my Deck equal to the number of cards on your field!
With 'Remove Brainwashing' and 'Kozmo Tincan' on your field, I draw two more cards."
After drawing the cards, he immediately said, "Then, Nebula Neos's follow-up effect allows selecting one face-up card on the field and negating its effect until the end of the turn!"
"Even if you choose 'Kozmo Tincan,' the opponent will chain Tincan's effects to banish itself and summon 'Big Blade Ship' from their hand, making that meaningless." Yubel reminded.
"I know." Judai shouted, "Then the card I choose to negate is... 'Elemental Hero Nebula Neos' itself!"
"I negate myself!"
Light of Destruction: "Negate yourself?"
"That's right, Neos monsters usually need to return to the Deck during the end phase." Judai said, "But if you negate their own effect, they don't have to return at the end phase!"
"I see, planning further ahead." Light of Destruction commented.
There was something Judai didn't mention.
This turn, Nebula Neos's effect that returns it to the Deck was negated, so during Light of Destruction's next end phase, if Nebula Neos remains on the field, it will trigger its effect again.
And when Nebula Neos returns to the Deck due to its own effect, at that moment, all cards on both players' fields will be banished face-down!
Thus, Light of Destruction will have to face Youyu's next turn with an empty field!
Of course, assuming there will be a next turn.
"Battle Phase!" Judai announced, "Attack 'Kozmo Tincan' with 'Elemental Hero Neos Knight!' Neos Knight's effect allows it to attack twice in one turn!"
Neos Knight flew out, wielding a Double-Edged Sword with a thin layer of golden glow, surrounded by shimmering golden rings.
"At this moment, 'Kozmo Tincan' activates its effect." Light of Destruction said, "Banish Tincan from the field to Special Summon a 'Kozmo' monster with Level 2 or higher from hand.
I Special Summon 'Kozmo Delta Shuttle' in Defense Position!"
Tincan disappeared under the gravitational pull of the black vortex, as the massive Big Blade Ship emerged with a roar!
[Kozmo Delta Shuttle, DEF 1800]
"Delta Shuttle's effect activated." Light of Destruction said, "Upon summon or Special Summon, destroy one monster on the opponent's field."
He paused, his gaze briefly falling onto the compelling blue giant on Judai's field.
"Obelisk is a god, not a monster!" Judai said, "The God Soldier cannot be chosen as targets for magic, trap, or monster effects!"
"Then destroy 'Elemental Hero Neos Knight'."
The Laser Cannon Tower fired all its shots, Neos Knight swinging the Double-Edged Sword left and right to fend off, but ultimately couldn't fully defend, and under thick firepower was blasted to pieces.
Yet this was within Judai's expectation.
"Then 'Elemental Hero Nebula Neos,' continue attacking 'Kozmo Delta Shuttle!'"
Nebula Neos raised its hand, and the dark thunder swirled in its palm, gathering into a giant sphere, striking through the galaxy and with a single hit, shattering the battle ship into powder!
"Delta Shuttle's effect." Light of Destruction said, "Upon destruction by battle or effect, banish this card from the game to Special Summon another 'Kozmo' monster with Level 7 or less from the Deck.
I Special Summon 'Kozmo Delta Shuttle'."
[Kozmo Delta Shuttle, DEF 2000]
"Then the battle continues!" Judai said, "Obelisk the Tormentor, attack!"
The God of Destruction raised his right fist, landing a punch that pulverized the shuttle into the air, instantly shattered into fragments!
"Then 'Delta Shuttle,' its effect continues to activate." Light of Destruction said, "When destroyed by battle or effect and sent to the graveyard, Special Summon a 'Kozmo' monster from the Deck with Level 4 or less.
Special Summon 'Kozmo Scaredy Lion' in Defense Position."
[Kozmo Scaredy Lion, DEF 500]
"Wow, it really never ends....." Judai scratched his head.
Indeed, the Deck of the opponent felt like an endless interstellar fleet, no matter how many ships sunk, more ships would continuously charge forward.
It was as if facing an endless mode.
"Indeed, a fortress-like defense." His spirit Neos also floated out to evaluate, "An impeccable defense, very difficult to break through."
"Hmm... Then I'll set a card." Judai said, "End phase, Nebula Neos doesn't need to return to the Deck due to negating its own effect, it remains on the field.
My turn ends."
