Yu-Gi-Oh!, the Roar of the Weak

Chapter 327 Breaking the deadlock, passing on the legacy, and then victory!

003 instantly felt locked onto by a terrifying force. "What is this?"

"When the effect of 'Dungeon's Revelation' is activated, if it is sent from the Deck to the Graveyard, send all cards on my field to the Graveyard." Four enormous tentacles stretched out from the void, dragging Mirador Feathered Serpent and the three face-down cards in the back row to the Graveyard.

"Then, send the same number of cards you have on the field to the graveyard!"

"What!?"

Di Xing suddenly stretched his left hand forward and said, "I'll send your Flowing Quasar Dragon, Flowing Savior Dragon, Holy Divine Dragon Stardust Zero, and Crystal Illusion Wing Breakthrough Synchro Dragon to the graveyard!"

"I activate the effect of Shooting Quasar Dragon: Once per turn, negate and destroy the effects of Spell/Trap/Monsters!"

"It's no use; the effect of the Dungeon's Wandering Soul cannot be chained by strange effects."

Four strange rings appeared around 003's D-Wheel, and then four enormous tentacles suddenly extended from them. Flowing Sky Savior Star Dragon, Crystal Illusion Wing Breakthrough Synchronization Dragon, and Holy Divine Dragon Stardust Zero were caught off guard and immediately entangled by the tentacles.

The Meteor Quasar reacted with lightning speed, dodging the tentacles' first strike. It then hurriedly took to the air, but the tentacles relentlessly pursued it. After several rounds of rapid fighting, the Meteor Quasar was finally bound by its tail by the tentacles, and with a mournful cry, it was dragged into the graveyard along with the other three dragons.

The cosmic quasar dragon trembled as it watched its comrades being dragged away.

After all the prey were imprisoned in the dungeon called the Cemetery, the dungeon's spirit slowly emerged from the mist. Because Di Xing had composed the summoning incantation for it, it seemed to be in a good mood.

003 glanced at his only remaining Cosmic Quasar Dragon on the field. Because it had activated its effect during its turn, the Cosmic Quasar Dragon was now resurrected, essentially a useless vanilla minion with only 4000 attack power.

"Impressive, young man. You took down four of my companions in one go. However, when the Cosmic Quasar Dragon leaves the field, you can Special Summon Meteor Dragon from your Deck."

A colossal dragon, flashing white light like a shooting star, appeared. It possessed both offensive and defensive capabilities, meaning that Di Xing was no longer able to attack.

Moreover, the Divine Retribution attack in the dungeon only has 2600 points, while the Quasar Dragon's attack has 4000 points, and the Meteor Dragon's attack has 3300 points.

"What are you planning to do next?"

"Next, I'm going to end the battle phase!"

"Huh? You idiot! You actually ended the combat phase, how are you going to use your best OT K now!?"

"You'll find out soon, Sister Crystal Rainbow. I'm activating the spell card 'Undead Corpse' from my hand! This card can be activated when I have a Level 5 or higher Undead monster on my field. I gain control of one of your monsters. I'm going to control your Meteor Dragon!"

Bones began to grow on the Meteor Dragon's body, and it let out a painful howl.

003 hesitated slightly. After Di Xing took the Meteor Dragon, he would likely send it to the graveyard through Link Summoning. Although his Cosmic Radiant Dragon would return during the end phase, he would only have one Kang left.

Di Xing's abilities are quite astonishing; leaving only Kang behind wouldn't be enough to ensure safety, so 003 activated his cover card.

"I activate the Quick-Play Spell Card [Snowstorm]! You can only activate one card with this name per turn. Target one face-up Spell Card you control, and negate the effects of that card and any other Spell Cards with the same name that were on the field this turn! Also, if the targeted card is sent to the Graveyard this turn, it returns to your hand instead of the Graveyard."

A massive blizzard erupted from the magic card, scattering all the white bones on Meteor Dragon's body.

Oh, I see. It's a Quick-Play Spell Card, apparently meant to defend against Hades Barrier Wave and Forbidden Drop.

Hades Barrier Wave cannot be chained by monsters, but it can be chained by spells and traps. Forbidden Drop usually doesn't send spell cards, and this card can also be used outside of a chain. It seems that 003 has put a lot of effort into preventing his field from being cleared. However, Di Xing's Undead Corpse was originally intended to trick Kon!

"Then I'll activate my second spell card, [The Pot of Humility]!"

"You can only activate this card once per turn. Banish three or six cards from my Extra Deck face down to activate it. Reveal the number of banished cards from the top of my Deck, add one card from that deck to your hand, and return the rest to the bottom of your Deck in my preferred order."

"After this card is activated, all damage you take until the end of the turn is halved, and during the turn this card is activated, I cannot draw cards using card effects!"

"I banish six extra cards and flip over six cards from the top of my deck." Di Xing glanced at the six cards. Good! Di Xing revealed a confident smile. He had won this match!

"I select the White Bone Princess to add to my hand." Then Di Xing placed the remaining five cards back into the deck in order.

"I discard Princess Bone, reducing the ATK of all monsters on the field by 300 times their level."

The little princess gracefully performed a curtsy, and the weakened bone energy wave affected the entire area. The attack power of Meteor Dragon and the Dungeon's Wanderer was reduced to zero, while the Cosmic Thunder Star Dragon's attack power was reduced to a pitiful 400 points.

"You're already unable to fight, so why are you activating her effect?"

"Hehe, Senior 003, my formula for victory is complete."

"What?" 003 was extremely annoyed that his famous line had been stolen.

"I revert a Trap Card from my Graveyard to another, and pay half of its Life Points to turn its effect into a Trap Card in my Graveyard called [Heaven and Earth Reversal]."

"The effect of 'Heaven and Earth Return' adds the bottom card of your deck to your hand!"

"The card at the bottom of the deck? Wait, isn't that card...?"

"That's right. The card at the bottom of the deck is the one I just placed there using the effect of the Pot of Humility—[Spiritual Exophysis]!"

"I activate the Continuous Spell Toon Exophysis. At the end of each player's turn, each player may tribute one monster they control to inflict damage equal to half the original ATK of that monster to their opponent."

"Your current life points are 4000, and because of the effect of Pot of Humility, all damage you take is halved. That means as long as I have a monster on the field with an attack value higher than 1, I can defeat you!"

"Are you kidding me?" Baili Jinghong's crystal face showed a surprised expression. Di Xing was now out of cards, and this was already the second main phase.

003 then let out a hearty laugh, a move that was quite unlike Crab Bro's.

"Very good, this condition is very challenging. You'd better give it your all to surpass me!"

"Alright! I banish the Lord of the Bone Path from the Graveyard and revive the Bone Knight of the Next Night from the Graveyard! Activate the effect of the Bone Knight of the Next Night, and add the Continuous Spell Card 'Lord of the Bone' from the Deck to my hand."

"I activate the Lord of Bones, sending the Bone King from my deck to the graveyard, and then reviving the Bone Princess from the graveyard!"

"The White Bone Princess's appearance effect activates (C1), then the White Bone Roast King's grave-sending effect activates (C2)."

Results settlement

"C2 White Bone King's effect activates, I select White Bone Lord and White Bone Prince from my deck and add them to my hand, then discard White Bone Prince, then C1 White Bone Princess's effect activates, sending White Bone Prince from my deck to the graveyard."

"Activate the effect of two Bone Princes to send two pairs of Bone Couples from the Deck to the Graveyard."

"It's not over yet. I'm going to set up a Link Summon with the Bone Princess and the Bone Knight of the Next Night on my field. The Summoning condition is two Undead monsters. Confirm with the arrow, Link Summon, Link 2 Vampire Eater!"

"Then I activate the effect of the Bone Lord in my hand, discard him, and send the same number of Bone cards from my deck to the graveyard. I now have ten Bone cards in my graveyard, so I send all ten cards to the graveyard!"

Di Xing began sending cards from the top of his deck to the graveyard one by one.

The first card—[Shiranui Style: Talent Formation]

The second card—[Banshee of the Corpse World]

The third card—[Bone Bet]

The fourth card—[Bone Nightmare]

The fifth card—[Mogela]

The sixth card—[Horse-Headed Demon]

The seventh card—[Lord of the Bone Path]

The eighth card—[The Bone King]

Ninth card—[Princess White Bone]

"Brother Di Xing's luck is a bit bad," Nami said worriedly.

Only 3 of the 9 cards were sent in; Di Xing now has 13 skeletons in his graveyard, 3 short of 16. Now it all depends on whether the last card is the Bone Prince. Everyone is watching Di Xing with bated breath.

However, Di Xing confidently placed his hand on the deck, sent the card to the graveyard, and the world fell silent. The card was flipped over—it was—the White Bone Prince!

"The Bone Prince's effect activates, sending the last pair of skeletons to the graveyard, and then I banish the Horse-Headed Ghost from the graveyard."

The Star Shuttle roared and accelerated, and Di Xing stylishly waved out a card: "O King of Bones who rises from among the bones, let out an indomitable roar on behalf of all the dead! This strike, piercing through heaven and earth, descend, King of Bones!"

A gigantic ring of bones appeared behind Di Xing, from which the Bone King, with a body as large as a mountain, flew out and sped through the air alongside the Star Shuttle.

003 turned to look at this monster that had surpassed all limits, and a genuine smile appeared on his face.

"Outstanding, young man! I have witnessed your potential; you are the hope of this world!"

"No, Senior 003."

"?"

"This world should have ended during the final war hundreds of years ago. It is thanks to the efforts of you and countless predecessors that it has been preserved to this day, which is why I was able to travel to this world."

On the D-wheel, Di Xing surveyed Enderella, the woman no card player could dislike.

"Rather than saying I am the hope of this world, it is more accurate to say that this world is my hope. It is thanks to the millions of people who strive to protect and love this world, even in death, that this world has been able to survive. And I am merely one of the many inheritors among these millions."

"I banish Banshee from the Graveyard and activate Undead World from my Deck!"

Lei Xi's card flew into another dimension, but her figure appeared on the field. Lei Xi clasped her hands together and began to sing a beautiful song, then mountains of corpses and seas of blood enveloped the entire arena.

Then Lei Xi's figure transformed into a chibi version and flew onto Di Xing's shoulder. Before the duel, Lei Xi had already conveyed a message to Di Xing in her mind. Through her efforts, she was finally able to transform herself into a card.

"The effect of Undead World: All cards on the field and in the graveyard become Undead!"

"What? This card?" In 003's mind, countless lines began to unfold, and finally he saw that bright line leading to the end—a way for his deck to defeat Albus's Fallen!

He murmured to himself, "A hero who protects the world even after death?"

"That's right, senior, it seems you've already thought of that method."

"Yes, but I can no longer use it."

"Don't worry, senior. I've set up the link using the Vampire Eater and the Dungeon's Wanderer. The summoning condition is two or more monsters, including the Undead. Bewitching Flower of the Blood Clan, use your beautiful face to captivate the world! Link Summon, Link 3, Vampire Enchantress!"

A red-haired vampire in a black crop top makes her appearance, seemingly beaming with joy at having acquired a new summoning phrase.

"If Vampire Enchantress is successfully Link Summoned, you may Special Summon 1 monster from your Graveyard to my field in Defense Position. Because of the Night Knight's narration, I cannot Special Summon monsters other than Zombie-Type monsters. However, all the cards in your Graveyard have been transformed into Zombie-Type monsters by Zombie World, so I must revive them..."

Di Xing pointed to the Flowing Sky Savior Dragon in Tomb 003.

"Gathered thoughts awaken a radiant miracle! Become a path of shining light! Synchronize and summon! Come forth, Savior Star Dragon!"

The sublime dragon that descended to save humanity has now been resurrected on the Di Xing field, and then begins its high-speed flight alongside the Di Xing Star Shuttle.

"It's not over yet. I activate the second effect of Vampire Enchantress, Tribute one of my Vampire monsters, and gain control of one of your monsters. I gain control of your Meteor Dragon."

The vampire enchantress's beautiful body transformed into a flying kiss, striking the meteor dragon.

White bones grew back on the Meteor Dragon's body, but strangely, this time it only felt warmth. So it flapped its wings and flew towards Di Xing.

"The gathered dream crystals will open a new gate to evolution, paving a path of dazzling light! Accelerate Synchro Synchro, be born, Meteor Dragon!"

Meteor Dragon also began to accompany the Star Shuttle.

"I will inherit your will!" Di Xing looked at the two giant dragons beside him, feeling incredibly pleased; another dream had come true.

Di Xing summoned two giant dragons to his field, symbolizing taking over the baton from 003. With the two dragons accompanying him, Di Xing seemed to gain some kind of power boost; the Star Shuttle accelerated rapidly again, even overtaking the Meteor.

Looking at Di Xing, who had surpassed him, 003 smiled with relief. "Then, the responsibility of saving this world is entrusted to you. Also, whatever you do, don't become a dragon!"

"Remember your instructions," Di Xing swore, then said, "I enter the final phase, activating the effect of the Spiritual Exophysis, releasing the Bone King, and dealing you 4000 points of damage!"

LP: 4000-4000=0

The victor—Di Xing!
