At this moment, President Kaiba also came down, and upon seeing the scene in front of him, he couldn't help but frown.
However, he didn't explode, just let out a deep hum.
"Is it another one of your leader's requests?" Kaiba said calmly, "A guy with a perpetually poor taste."
Indeed, the president seemed quite familiar with the head of this organization. Well, there probably aren't many people in the world bold enough to joke with the president like that.
This made Yugen even more curious about what kind of character the boss of this group of men could be.
"Where is that guy?" Kaiba asked.
A tall figure, appearing to be the leader, stepped out from the White Dragon Strongman Maid Corps. He respectfully said, "The leader has some important matters to attend to, but the car is ready.
We will first take the president to a resting place, and the leader will hurry over as soon as he's done."
Kaiba said nothing, just gestured for him to lead the way.
But that leader didn't move, just smiled apologetically.
"Also, there's one more thing."
"What is it?"
The leader received a Duel Disc from someone behind him and put it on his arm.
Kaiba glanced at him, a smirk playing on his lips, "What, you want to duel?"
"I'm very sorry, but this is also the leader's request," the leader said, "He wants to witness President Kaiba's dueling today. After all, the president hasn't dueled publicly for many years."
"Oh? Then why didn't that guy come personally?" Kaiba said, "Afraid to face me?"
With that, he chuckled.
"Forget it, as a pre-dinner activity it could be enjoyable. Alright then." Kaiba raised his arm too, his specially designed Duel Disc unfolding, "For that guy's sake, we'll have a special duel."
"Thank you, president." The leader thanked him repeatedly, while stepping back.
Yugen and the others stepped back as well, observing while pondering that either the president's itch to play cards had been suppressed for too long and needed release, or that the leader's reputation must be enormous...
"Duel!" x2
[Kaiba, LP 4000]
[Leader, LP 4000]
Glancing at the indicators on his Duel Disc, Kaiba squinted his eyes.
"Looks like I'll go first... Draw."
He drew a single card from his hand.
"Set one monster on the field, turn end."
The leader furrowed his brow.
Just one Covering Card...
But the opponent is Seto Kaiba, he knew even if it was a pass, he couldn't afford to be careless.
"My turn, draw." The leader said, "I summon this card, the strongest insect—
—Electric Blade Insect, summon!"
[Electric Blade Insect, Attack Power 2400]
"Ah, it's actually Electric Blade Insect!" Keihei exclaimed.
"Hmm, it's actually Electric Blade Insect," Yugen also said.
But what Keihei meant was, a rare card with a Level Four attack power of 2400, too strong.
What Yugen meant was, such a traitorous monster, surprisingly someone still used it...
"Electric Blade Insect is the strongest insect, although Level Four, it has the mighty Attack Power equivalent to the legendary 'True Red-Eyed Black Dragon'," the leader confidently said, "And the risk that comes with this attack power is just needing the opponent to draw a card during battle."
Yugen remained silent.
"Just" needing the opponent to draw a card... is that all?
Well, if you think so, then it is indeed an exceptionally powerful monster.
"Then I activate the Equipment Magic 'Demon's Axe', equip it to Electric Blade Insect, and increase its Attack Power by 1000 points!"
[Electric Blade Insect, Attack Power 2400 → Attack Power 3400]
The attack power instantly rose from "legendary True Red-Eyed Black Dragon" to a level even "higher than Blue-Eyes White Dragon"!
"Electric Blade Insect attacks the covered monster!"
The covered card was flipped, quickly shattered under the powerful saws of Electric Blade Insect.
[Magical Mechanized Vehicle Dikoyi, Defense Power 1000]
"When Magical Mechanized Vehicle flips, draw a card from the deck." Kaiba said calmly, "Of course, due to 'Electric Blade Insect's effect, draw another card."
Kaiba drew two cards.
"Set three cards, turn end." The leader said.
Summoning such a high-level monster right away, along with setting cards in the backfield, practically a "perfect hand." He believed today he shouldn't disgrace the leader.
Even Seto Kaiba might feel pressured by such an array?
"My turn, draw.
Activate the Magic Card 'Pot of Greed', draw two cards from the deck."
Kaiba slowly drew cards, then looked at him with meaningful eyes.
"Since he arranged for you to duel, that guy probably has high hopes for you, right?"
The leader was stunned, then quickly said, "The leader trusts me, I'm willing to go through fire and water for him, accomplish any task."
"Hmph."
Kaiba closed his eyes, chuckling softly.
"Then as a greeting gift to that guy, I'll give a little guidance..."
When he reopened his eyes, his gaze was as sharp as a drawn blade.
"...on what true duel power is!"
He slapped down a Monster Card.
"Summon 'Dragon Dominator - Dragon Ruler'!"
[Dragon Dominator - Dragon Ruler, Attack Power 1200]
"The effect of 'Dragon Ruler', upon successful summon, discard one magic card from your hand, and add the magic card 'Melody of the Dragon's Awakening' from the deck to your hand."
Kaiba discarded a card from his hand and then drew a card that was searched from his deck.
"Then, the magic card 'Melody of the Dragon's Awakening'! Discard one card from your hand, and add up to two dragon-type monsters with at least 3000 attack power and no more than 2500 defense power from the deck to your hand.
Therefore, I add 'Blue-Eyes White Dragon' and 'Blue-Eyes Sub-White Dragon' to my hand!"
Kaiba drew out the two cards that were searched from his deck, and immediately displayed them.
"Blue-Eyes Sub-White Dragon can be special summoned directly by revealing 'Blue-Eyes White Dragon' from your hand.
I special summon 'Blue-Eyes Sub-White Dragon'!"
[Blue-Eyes Sub-White Dragon, Attack Power 3000]
"The effect of Blue-Eyes Sub-White Dragon, once per turn, by relinquishing an attack as the cost, destroy one monster on the field.
Destroy 'Electric Blade Insect'!"
The Sub-White Dragon opened its mouth, and a white light bullet shot out. The Electric Blade Insect instantly evaporated and disappeared under the scorching white light.
"Tch, to think that my strongest insect got dealt with so easily..." the leader gritted his teeth.
But he still had an iron wall of formations in the back row...
"The effect of 'Dragon Dominator - Dragon Tyrant' in my hand. By sending a 'Blue-Eyes White Dragon' from the deck to the graveyard, it special summons itself!"
[Dragon Dominator - Dragon Tyrant, Attack Power 1200]
"Then, the other effect of the Tyrant, discard the just searched 'Blue-Eyes White Dragon' from hand, and you can special summon the 'Blue-Eyes' monster from the graveyard."
Seto Kaiba waved his hand.
"Revive the card that was discarded as the cost of 'Melody of the Dragon's Awakening', appear now—
——White Spirit Dragon!"
[White Spirit Dragon, Attack Power 2500]
"When White Spirit Dragon is special summoned, one of the opponent's back-row magic or trap cards is banished from the game."
Kaiba pointed at one of the cover cards.
"That cover card is banished!"
A white storm rose, sweeping the cover card into a dimensional vortex and making it disappear.
Counterattack Trap "Attack Powerlessness".
The leader's face turned more grim.
Even the attack powerlessness was...
"Activate the magic card 'Fusion'!" Kaiba said, "When 'Dragon Ruler' exists in the monster zone on the field, it can be treated as 'Dragon Dominator' for use.
Therefore, using 'Dragon Ruler' as 'Dragon Dominator' and the 'Divine Dragon Apocalypse Dragon' in my hand, for the fusion summon—
——Dragon Demon - King of Dragon Knights!!!"
[Dragon Demon - King of Dragon Knights, Attack Power 2400]
"Then the effect of Dragon Demon, once per turn, special summon a dragon-type monster from your hand."
Kaiba calmly drew another card from his hand.
"Special summon 'Material Dragon'."
[Material Dragon, Attack Power 2400]
The leader's face turned more grim.
"Such a formation in the first turn..."
He couldn't help but glance again at his back-row, his heart beginning to drum.
Will the back-row formation be able to withstand Kaiba's all-out dragon assault...
Noticing the opponent's gaze, Kaiba glanced at the two cover cards in the back row.
He then chuckled softly.
"Battle." Kaiba commanded, "White Spirit Dragon's direct attack!"
The White Spirit Dragon was engulfed in a white storm, energy gathering in its mouth, roaring out like a dragon's roar!
"Activate cover card!" the leader shouted, "Trap card 'Dimensional Confinement'! When the opponent's monster declares an attack, that monster is banished from the game..."
"It's useless." Kaiba said blandly, "When 'Dragon Demon - King of Dragon Knights' is on the field, the opponent cannot target dragon-type monsters with magic, trap, or monster effects."
Leader: "!!!"
To think there was such resistance...
"Tch." The leader gritted his teeth, "Then activate the other cover card, the trap with the strongest reflective power—
——Divine Protective Shield - Reflective Mirror Force!
Destroy all opponent's monsters in attack position on the field!"
"It's useless."
Kaiba still spoke calmly.
The moment the words fell, it was like an irrefutable command of majesty, the Divine Reflective Shield shattered on the spot, exploding into pieces.
Leader: "!? "
Why? The reflective mirror force didn't work?
"Reflective Mirror Force is an effect on the entire field, it's not supposed to target dragon-type monsters..."
"Indeed." Kaiba said expressionlessly, "But Material Dragon's effect, by discarding a card from the hand, can negate and destroy the activation of magic, trap, or monster effects that include 'destroying monsters on the field'.
The leader's pupils contracted.
Dimensional Confinement failed, Reflective Mirror Force also failed...
The grand assault of the dragons swept over the leader's body. The leader closed his eyes, flung to the ground by the impact.
This is... the duel of Seto Kaiba.
There are simply no blind spots...
So strong.
[Leader, LP 0]
