Yu-Gi-Oh!: The journey of the Duel King from scratch!

Reluctantly withdrawing from the battle stage, Jonouchi changed the subject, grinned, and pointed at the Red-Eyes Black Flame Dragon in front of him.

"Red-Eyes Black Flame Dragon's special effect activated!"

"Once per turn, at the end of the Battle Phase when this monster is fighting, you can activate it to inflict damage to your opponent equal to the original ATK of this card."

"Take that, Black Flame Breath!"

"What? This monster actually has this ability?" Osmante widened his eyes in astonishment, unable to believe what was happening before his eyes.

I originally thought that I had enough understanding and coping strategies for Red-Eyes Black Flame Dragon, but I never expected that this monster actually has a special ability that can directly cause effect damage to the player at the end of the battle round.

Just when Osmante was too shocked to react, the Red-Eyes Black Flame Dragon had already opened its bloody mouth, and a dazzling red flame gushed out like a torrent. The hot tongues of fire swept over in an instant, and the speed was so fast that people had no time to dodge.

"Ah!!!" With a shrill scream, Osmante was completely engulfed by the blazing red flames. The severe pain caused by the high temperature burning made him almost faint, and the surrounding air seemed to be ignited in an instant, forming a sea of ​​fire.

OSMANT LP4000＞1600

"well!!!"

With one hand clenched into a fist, he showed his unique facial expression. Jonouchi laughed out loud on the spot: "Hahaha! You idiot, now you know why everyone calls me the Man of Flame, right?"

"Idiot! Idiot! In front of my black dragon monster, the so-called perfect defense does not exist at all. Now, I will return your words to you intact!"

“You lion-headed monster, if your IQ is only this high, I advise you to surrender as soon as possible! Ahahaha!”

Bang!

“Hey, Jonouchi!” Honda, who had knocked down a Dark Elf soldier with one punch and had already knocked down dozens of Dark Elves with his fists, shouted at Jonouchi, whose nose was almost sticking up to the sky, with veins popping out of his forehead, “You idiot, the opponent is not an ordinary duel elf, you mustn’t let your guard down!”

"Yakamasi!" After being poured cold water by Honda, Jonouchi turned around and pointed at the former and shouted, "The word carelessness does not exist in Jonouchi's dictionary. The rhythm of this duel has been mastered by me. With just this lion monster, it is impossible to..."

"The special effect of the Sword Beast Chase is activated!"

A huge figure appeared in the burning flames, and the words that came out suddenly interrupted Jonouchi's speech. Along with a loud lion roar that was enough to make ordinary people faint on the spot, the burly body of Osmante, who had dispelled the red lotus fire, suddenly appeared in Jonouchi's eyes.

"After this monster has fought and the Battle Phase ends, I can Special Summon two monsters named Gladiator Beast from my Deck, excluding Gladiator Beast Chase!"

"My brave and fearless warrior, obey the king's call and show yourself now!"

"Gladiator Beast Yuto, Attack Position!" X2 (ATK 800, DEF 400) (This card has the same anime effect as the real card.) Summoning two identical Fish-type monsters from his deck, Osmanth raised his hand and pointed to the front field of Jonouchi.

"The special effect of Sword Fighter Beast Fish Fight is activated!"

"This monster's effect has no limit of once per turn. When it is Special Summoned, it can destroy a face-up monster on the field!"

"Now, I will use Red-Eyes Black Flame Dragon and Red-Eyes Dark Steel Dragon as the targets of my effect and destroy both monsters!"

"What?!" The corners of his mouth couldn't help but twitch violently. Because of this extremely outrageous special effect, a layer of fine sweat beads instantly appeared on Jonouchi's forehead.

Two strange ultrasonic waves were emitted from the loudspeaker on the back of the Sword Fighting Beast Fish Fighting. Even though the former's attack power value had already reached the level of small fish, with the blessing of special effects, the Red-Eyes Black Flame Dragon and the Red-Eyes Dark Iron Dragon were still beaten into pieces with screams.

"This damn guy actually played a dirty trick on me?!" Having lost two ace monsters in an instant, Jonouchi's mouth twitched violently.

In desperation, Jonouchi could only insert the two cards into the backfield of the duel disk.

"I cover two cards in my backfield and end my turn!"

"Hehe~! Human, your attack just now was very good. It's my turn next. Draw a card!"

The injury undoubtedly aroused Oumanster's ferocity. Both his oppressiveness and aura had changed significantly. After confirming the drawn card, Oumanster raised his hand and slapped it on the duel disk.

"Activate the magic card, bargain shopping!"

"The effect of this card is that you can discard an 8-star monster card from your hand and draw two cards from your deck!"

"According to this effect, I will send Gladiator Augustus from my hand to the Graveyard, then draw two cards!"

"The magic card Pot of Greed is activated. I can continue to draw two cards!"

After quickly replenishing his hand, Osmanth then showed a card to Jonouchi.

"Next, I Normal Summon, Gladiator Spear Fight, in Attack Position!" (Attack 1500 Defense 800) After successfully summoning a fully-armored Subhuman Bird Beast monster, Osmanth continued, "My Gladiator monsters have a special fusion system. All Fusion Monsters only need to gather the necessary Fusion Materials on the field and return them to the Deck when they are Fusion Summoned. In addition, this effect does not require Spell Card Fusion!"

(Note: In the original anime, this effect is considered a Fusion Summon that has already activated a Spell Card Fusion.)

"The fusion condition of this monster is that the Sword Beast Gundou and a monster named Sword Beast!"

"Now, I will return the Gladiator Beast Gundou and a Gladiator Beast Fishdou on my field to the Deck as fusion materials!"

"O raptor warrior of ancient times! Merge with the soul of the sword warrior and become a battle-hardened warrior!"

"Fusion Summon! Come on! Gladiator Caesar, attack position!" (Attack 2400, Defense 1500) The two Gladiator monsters leaped into the sky at the same time as Osmante spoke, and after merging together, a bird-type monster with a larger body and stronger armor appeared on his field.

"Haha, human fighter, now let me show you how the sword beasts fight!"

Pointing at the fusion monster he had just summoned, Osmanth roared, "The special effect of Gladiator Beast Caesar is activated!"

"When this monster is successfully Special Summoned, it can target up to two cards on the field with its effect, and I can destroy them all!"

"Now, my goal is to destroy the two cover cards in your backcourt!"

"What the hell? Is it such an outrageous special effect?" No one expected that this fusion monster would have such a powerful effect. Jonouchi, who had already fallen into a passive position, naturally could not sit still and wait for death.

"You can't succeed. At this moment, I will enter the chain and activate a cover card in the backcourt!"

He hurriedly clicked the button to start the card, and Jonouchi pointed to a red sticker that had been activated in the backfield and said loudly: "Continuous Trap Card Activated, Chief Judgment!" Ou Manster: "???"

Seeing his opponent's confused expression, Jonouchi wiped his nose and smiled awkwardly before continuing, "The card name effect of this card can only be used once per turn. It can be activated when our or the opponent's player activates the effect of a monster on the field. The player who activated the monster effect flips a coin and guesses the heads or tails. If the guess is right, this card will be sent to the Graveyard. If the guess is wrong, the effect will be invalidated and control of the monster will be transferred to the opponent of the player!"

Osmanth: “!!!”

Staring in disbelief at the virtual golden coin that suddenly appeared in his hand, Osmante widened his eyes in confusion, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly uncontrollably.

His eyes were filled with contempt for Jonouchi, and Osmante cursed in his heart, "Damn it! I wanted to have a fair fight with you, a seemingly upright and honest human, but I didn't expect you to resort to such sinister and cunning means!"

Gambling is undoubtedly an insult to a true warrior. Thinking of this, Osmanth clenched his fists angrily and shouted at Jonouchi with gritted teeth: "Despicable human! Do you really think my luck is that bad? Humph! This is ridiculous. Since you have resorted to such despicable means, I will make you admit defeat with all your heart!"

"At this moment, I will also open the cover card in the backfield and enter the chain!"

To be on the safe side, he opened another face-up card on his backfield and said loudly, "Activate Trap Card, Obstacle Course!" "The effect of this card is that when I Special Summon a monster named Gladiator Beast and succeed, I can Special Summon a monster of level 4 or lower with Gladiator Beast in its name from my hand or deck."

"According to this effect, I will Special Summon Gladiator Shooter from my Deck in Attack Position!" (ATK 1400, DEF 1000) (Note the chain order: Obstacle Course > Chief Judge > Gladiator Caesar!)

Although he successfully summoned the Gladiator Beast Shoto, due to the activation of the effect, Osmanth still had to deal with the coin tossing effect.

As a seasoned fighter, Osmante has always upheld the principle of speaking with strength. For a warrior full of honor and passion, the way Jonouchi is now using gambling to decide the outcome is undoubtedly a blatant provocation to his dignity and bottom line.

In Osmant's opinion, gambling is a shameful behavior no matter in which field it is carried out. It not only lacks fairness and transparency, but is also a double blasphemy to the duelist's own strength and efforts.

Just think about it, if everyone attributes victory to luck, then how cruel it would be for those who are truly diligent and hardworking!

But now, Jonouchi activated the card representing uncertainty and luck without hesitation, and tried to use it to defeat himself. Such a move undoubtedly made Osmant extremely annoyed!

"Human, I never thought you would be such a piece of trash without any honor. I take back my previous evaluation of you. You are not worthy of the title of Man of Fire!"

The rage in his chest was already burning, as if it was about to burst out. While accusing Jonouchi, he threw the coin in his hand high into the sky. Osmanth sneered and said, "For the honor of being a warrior, I can sacrifice my life for this. Human, your inferior character has tarnished this sacred duel. Therefore, the goddess of victory will never favor you because of this!"

"I, Osmanth, hereby declare that the coin will come up heads!"

Ding!

The golden coin slowly fell from the air, accompanied by a crisp metallic collision sound. After bouncing a few times on the ground, the golden coin dramatically turned to the reverse side.

Osmanth: "..."

"Yoshi, tails! Haha! Your Gladiator Caesar is mine!"

"No! This is impossible!"

Annoying!

Yes!

Seeing his ace monster betraying him and running to the front court of Jonouchi, Osmante felt extremely upset at this moment!

His mentality undoubtedly collapsed a little. Looking at the yellow-haired human in front of him with a 45-degree angle of his mouth, Osmante was obviously a little drunk.

"Damn it, do you think you can stop my attack like this? Human, I have to say, you have completely pissed me off!"

He just made a harsh statement and was slapped in the face at the speed of light. This feeling made Osmante feel ashamed.

"You like to play dirty, don't you? If so, I'll let you reap what you sow!"

"The fusion condition for this monster is to return three monsters named Gladiator Beast to the deck, and it also does not require magic card fusion!"

"Now, I will return the three monsters on the field, Shoto, Fishto, and Chaseto, to the deck as fusion materials!"

"Souls of battle-hardened birds and beasts! Merge with the souls of gladiators and become an indestructible tyrant!"

"Fusion Summon! Gladiator Nero, attack display!" (Attack 2800 Defense 1900) Boom!

Wearing black arena armor, a burly fighter appeared on the duel field with the fusion of three sword fighting monsters!

"Fight!"

Without too many words, after successfully summoning the gladiator beast Nero, Osmanth directly announced that the battle phase had begun.

"Gladiator Beast Nero's continuous effect cannot be destroyed by battle. Also, when this monster is in battle, the opponent's player cannot activate the effects of Spell Cards, Trap Cards, and Monster Cards until the end of the Damage Step!"

"Human, your traps and magic are no match for my sword beasts!"
