Me: Update! Rua! Ruka!
Ruka and Rua: What will it be? What will it be? This is what we have for this chapter! *A Level 10 Synchro Monster was picked*
Rua: Alright! It's Savior Star Dragon!
Ruka: Good luck, Yusei!
Rua and Ruka: Strongest move! Shooting Blaster Sonic! Hm? * a second card appeared beside Savior Star Dragon* Nani!?
Rua: How come there's another card?
Ruka: I guess we'll find out later.
Two weeks had passed by since the Snowball War had been played. Yusei had recovered quite nicely from Dying Will Flame Exhaustion, or DWFE as Reborn shortened it to. Gentle white powder of frozen water landed with grace upon the slowly expanding white blanket coating the land. Everyone still on the island had agreed to spend it in the Slifer Red Dorm. The scent of roasted marshmallows filled the dining room as the younger members of the group, Kyoko, and Yanagi all made marshmallows on a mini-grill. Nearby, Jaden and Jin were having a small duel over a large plate of marshmallow.
"I fusion summon Elemental Hero Thunder Giant in attack mode!" Jaden declared as his electric and stone fusion friend emerged on the field.
Across from him was Jin with a worn out ancient vase on his side of the field. Emerging from the pot was a blue mist. The mist solidified into a blue muscular figure with the head of a bison. The bison simply snorted as it glared at Jaden's fusion with its demonic crimson eyes. Everyone, minus the annoyed Chazz and Jack, watched the duel. Lambo yelped as a marshmallow popped.
"Alright! Now I attack with Elemental Hero Thunder Giant! Thunder Slam!" Jaden ordered.
The snow had stopped falling as it reveal the full moon shining upon the island. A figure dashed through a dark part of the island's forest. He wore the standard Obelisk Blue uniform with gray pants. His long auburn hair flowed swiftly behind him as his glasses started to slip off his fear-stricken face.
"Help!!!"
Rua grunted as he tossed a cooked marshmallow between his hands. He blew on the confection whenever it made four passes. Ruka sighed before she bit into the cooked marshmallow held between two chopsticks. Outside, the boy emerged from the forest, heading towards the lit Slifer Red Dorm. Rua pulled apart the marshmallow and ate the piece in his left hand. Everyone turned when they heard a crash. The figure had fallen inside, breaking the glass sliding door.
"Oh no!" Ruka gasped.
"What's wrong?" Jaden asked as Jin and Yusei helped the poor boy up.
"…Jinzo…"
"What about Jinzo?" Yusei asked.
"He's chasing me!" the boy replied.
"…Yamamoto-kun, get Jirou out and make him sniff for drugs," Jack ordered.
"What are you saying? I don't get it," Jaden tilted his head as the others walked up.
"Ruka, check his deck," Reborn ordered as he swiped the boy's deck from his belt.
Ruka nodded. She gently placed her hand on the top of the deck and closed her eyes. For a few moments, she remained still and quiet. She screamed and ran behind Aki.
"His deck…It's saying that Jinzo is after him! And wants to kill him!" Ruka whimpered.
"You're Takatera from Obelisk Blue, correct?" Reborn asked.
"Reborn Hakase! As you studied the Spirit Realm and Duel Spirits, surely you will understand!" the boy exclaimed.
"Calm down now," Yanagi spoke, Explain it from the beginning, boy."
"H-Hai…It started before winter vacation," Takatera explained, "We Takatera Supernatural Brothers…"
"Takatera Supernatural Brothers?" Alexis repeated with a sweatdrop.
"…That include Mukouda and Isaka and me. A group that focuses on the study of the supernatural things of the duel. The study is especially dedicated to Duel Spirits and the Spirit Realm," Takatera continued, "In order to test our research results, we used a Power Plate to summon Jinzo to appear before us."
"And then what happened?" Yanagi asked, "No wait! Don't tell me!"
"The Power Plate said, from what we wrote down, 'Present 3 sacrifices. Thus I can revive.'"
"Aahh! I told you not to tell me!!" Yanagi whimpered.
"You shouldn't get confused with something fake and Duel Spirits," Reborn scolded.
'Ghosts are real…Adult Lambo and I were nearly taken away by one who was mad that Bianchi killed him!!' Tsuna thought.
"How did you respond?" Syrus asked.
"We said 'Got It.'"
"Nani?!" Haru gasped.
"We thought we were asked to use cards as offerings," Takatera explained, "But... I couldn't find Mukouda the next day and the day after that, Isaka disappeared too. They were used as sacrifices!"
The younger ones in the group, Kyoko, Haru, Syrus, and Tsuna all whimpered as the frightened males feels over in shock. Jaden and Hassleberry looked at each other. The two nodded and looked down at Takatera.
"It's winter vacation now. Maybe your friends just went home," Jaden spoke.
"I called their parents, but they said neither came home," Takatera replied, "I'm so scared right now. I tried to take the ferry home, but couldn't! You see, once I got to the ferry…"
"He was on the boat, right?" Aki asked, "I thought I saw something strange there!"
"There's no escaping from him!" Takatera shook in pure fright.
Suddenly, the light went out and almost everyone began to freak out. Kyoko and Haru hugged Tsuna tightly as Yanagi tried to hide behind Jin, who simply slapped the old man on the back of the head.
"Sy, let go of me!" Jaden shouted.
"But I'm scared, Jaden!" Syrus cried out in fright before an explosion was heard.
"Yare-yare…Once again?" Adult Lambo sighed.
"I hate the younger you right now, Lambo-kun," Adult I-Pin scowled.
"We playing hide and seek?" Adult Rua asked.
From out of the darkness, a figure wearing a large trench coat, a brown fedora, and a heavy scarf appeared. Almost everyone screamed out in fear of the figure. The figure knocked Takatera out with a fist to the gut before picking him up with a single arm.
"You're…" Jaden began.
"…Jinzo!" Tsuna finished in a yelp.
Jinzo dashed out followed by almost everyone else. A few moments later and Yusei, Bastion, and Jack drove after them on their D-Wheels with Adult Rua keeping up with them on his D-Board. They soon caught up to the others to see they had lost sign on Jinzo.
"Where'd he go?" Jack asked.
"Let me," Adult Rua said as he took out a card-shaped device, "This is a special Duel Spirit Locator. Nee-chan and Chief worked together to make this. It's designed to locate Duel Spirits in case of an emergency."
He turned the device on and a holographic image of the forest appeared. A green dot beeped as it moved towards an area. He turned it off and pocketed it.
"He's over here," Adult Rua said before he skated off.
A sigh escaped the lips of a small figure. He adjusted his rectangle glasses covering his grey eyes along with his emerald-green pacifier. Scattered around his work desk and the large room filled with various books, computers, and even a model or two of spaceships were various Box Weapon cases and a cup of coffee freshly brewed.
'Though they're complete, I can't help but think there's something more I can do with them…' the figure thought before a click was heard.
The chair the infant was in swiveled around to see a masked scientist opening the door. The figure looked left, right, and then to the infant. He saluted the infant until the child nodded.
"Verde, sir, something strange is on the radar," the man said.
"Strange?" Verde repeated with a frown.
Verde hopped out of his chair and walked out with his fellow scientist. The two walked into a large brig filled with various scientists and Mafioso. Verde walked over to a radar.
"Hmm…It's coming from the nearby Duel Academia," Verde spoke, "What's this? Scan the energy signature on here."
"Sir, we've already scanned it and the results were an unknown anomaly," the scientist beside him replied.
"What is causing it?"
"Unknown, sir," a female scientist replied.
She gave the Arcobaleno a large pile of papers. Verde observed the papers before he lowered them. His face held a cold, calculating smirk to it.
"Send a recon Box Weapon and a camera," Verde ordered, "Find the anomaly and record it until it vanishes." 'If I'm right, this may help me improve the Box Weapons…'
Soon, the group came upon four metal towers with various generators within the area inside the four towers. Surrounding almost all four sides was a metal fence. Each tower was connect to the others by black cables. Standing within the fenced area was Jinzo, his trench coat, fedora, and scarf all gone, revealing his emerald, yellow, obsidian, and jade clothing and armor, its emerald demonic facemask, the crimson optic glasses over his eyes, and his horrendous bald cranium with various bulging veins.
"What is this place?" Ruka asked.
"This must be the power plant for Duel Academy," Bastion replied.
"Be careful, everyone," Hassleberry advised, "We're in enemy territory."
Everyone yelped as lightning roared off the towers and conductors before seeping into Jinzo, making his body become a bit more solid in appearance.
"Yikes! That's an actual spirit!" Yanagi screamed in fear as he jumped into Jin's arms.
"Get off me!" Jin barked as he released Yanagi on the floor.
"Ah! My back!"
"Hey! If you want a sacrifice, Jinzo, then I'll be it instead!" Jaden declared.
"Jaden…" almost everyone gasped.
'I see…I can sense a hidden power deep within your soul…' Jinzo spoke.
"Hahi! It talked!" Haru screamed as she and Kyoko shook behind Tsuna.
'You are more suitable for being the third offering,' Jinzo continued.
"I just have one request; I challenge you to a duel, Jinzo!" Jaden declared, "If I win, then you will have to release the two you have already taken and return to the Spirit Realm forever! But if you win, you can have myself as your sacrifice."
'A duel? Very well then. I should have enough power to be able to take you on in a duel,' Jinzo said as the electric wires and poles erupted in pure lightning, 'First I shall defeat you, then I will consume you, and finally I shall take over this realm as my own! There's no longer any escape for you, my sacrifice!'
"Let's see you try," Yusei replied as he activated his Duel Disk and inserted his Ground Deck, "And I'm not a sacrifice! I'm Jaden Yuki from Slifer Red!"
'Duel!'
"Game on!"
Jaden Yuki: 4000
Jinzo: 4000
'I will make the first move,' Jinzo said as five holographic cards appeared before him, each the size of Syrus, along with a sixth one that appeared from nowhere, 'I summon Killer Doll of Malice in ATK Mode."
From a purple mist, a small figure around Ruka's size appeared. The figure cackled as it rose its wooden axe up to its torso. The figure was actually a living puppet with no nose. It's tatter blue shirt and purple overalls along with his wild blond hair blew in the wind gently. It stared at Jaden with its cloudy blue eyes.
Malice Doll of Demise: 1600/1700 Duel Note: If this card is sent to the Graveyard from the field by a Spell Card, you can Special Summon it back to the field at the start of the next turn of its user.
'Now I activate from my hand the continuous Spell Card 'Ectoplasmer,'' Jinzo continued as the Spell Card appeared behind Malice Doll of Demise, 'With this dark magic, one of us must send a monster on their field to the graveyard every turn at the end of our turns and deal out damage equal to half of that monster's strength to the opponent's Life Points.'
Malice Doll of Demise fell to the ground, limp, before turning into shards. A ghastly spirit erupted from its body before flying over to Jaden. The Slifer Red grunted as the ghost flew around him before going into the 'Ectoplasmer' card.
Jaden: 7200
"Oh no. Jaden-kun…" Tsuna whispered.
"That's a Continuous Spell Card and a real mean one to boot," Jin spoke, "The more monsters you have, the more damage you can invoke on the enemy. It's a dangerous double-edge sword if you're not careful."
'Turn end.'
"It's my turn! Draw!" Jaden shouted as he drew, 'I've only got on monster!' "I summon Elemental Hero Avian to the field in Attack Mode!"
Elemental Hero Avian: 1000/1000
"I set four cards facedown and next, from my hand, I'm activating a Continuous Spell Card of my own! I activate Mirage of Nightmare!"
"That's a pretty risky move Jaden just pulled," Yamamoto said.
"What do you mean?" Tsuna asked, "What does it do?"
"It lets one draw cards from their deck until they have four on the opponent's Standby Phase, but when it's your turn, you have to randomly discard the same number of cards your drew from your hand," Kyoko explained.
"Next up, I'm attacking you with Avian! Feather Break!" Jaden ordered.
Avian nodded before flying right at Jinzo. He reeled his fist back and swung it. Jinzo cried out in pain as Avian's fist pierced his body.
Jinzo: 3000
"And now I'm going to use your own card against you! I'll let Avian go to the graveyard for now, but his spirit won't rest until he deals out 500 points of damage to you!"
Avian's body fell to the ground before shattering, leaving just a white mist. The mist collected into a ghostly form of Avian. Jinzo cried out in pain as Ghost Avian pierced his body with another punch.
Jinzo: 2500
"Alright, Jaden!" Syrus cheered, "You nailed him with 1500 points of damage right off the bat!"
"Hm? Bat? Where?" Yamamoto asked as he looked around.
'Yamamoto-kun…I don't think he mean an actual baseball bat…' Tsuna thought.
"Aw, yeah! Things are goin' great!" Jaden pumped his fist.
"No, this is a Shadow Game with a Duel Spirit…" Gokudera corrected, "Baka, you better win this or I'll kill you!"
'It is my draw,' Jinzo said, 'The Malice Doll of Demise that is in my Graveyard because of the effects of Ectoplasmer is reborn during my Standby Phase!'
"I'll also activate Mirage of Nightmare's effect!" Jaden declared, "I draw four cards!" 'I got 'em! I got 'em! I got some Monster Cards!' "And now I'll activate my Emergency Provisions Spell Cards! I'll send my Mirage of Nightmare to regain 1000 Life Points!"
As Killer Doll of Malice emerged from the ground, laughing, white spores began to appear on Jaden's side of the field.
Jaden Yuki: 4200
"Alright! He played a great move!" Haru cheered, "He restored his Life Points and doesn't need to worry about discarding his hand!"
'I will call forth Emissary of the Underworld!'
Dark spores erupted from a card on Jinzo's side. The spores collected together and solidified into a monster. It resembled a ghastly Grim Reaper with gray clammy hand latched onto its long scythe. It cackled from its gray skull with a red light in the sockets and mouth.
Emissary of the Underworld: 1600/600 Card Effect: When this card is sent from the field to the Graveyard, each player selects 1 Level 3 or lower Normal Monster from their Deck, and adds it to their hand after showing it to the opponent. The Decks are then shuffled.
"Oh no! Jaden doesn't have any monsters out to defend himself!" Ruka gasped.
'Emissary of the Underworld, attack that player directly! Soul Hunt!!'
"Reverse card, open! A Hero Emerges! Now you've gotta pick one of my cards," Jaden explained, "You pick an monster, I get to summon it, ignoring the summoning conditions!"
Jinzo growled before he pointed at Jaden's hand. Some of the electricity moved with his finger and pointed at the far right card. Jaden grinned.
"Awright! It's a monster card!" Jaden cheered, "Now give a shocking welcome to Elemental Hero Sparkman!"
Elemental Hero Sparkman: 1600/1200
Sparkman jumped at the attacking Emissary of the Underworld with his right hand sparking. He reeled his hand back as the reaper-like monster pulled back its scythe. Sparkman's electric-coated fist pierced Emissary of the Underworld while the opponent's scythe cleaved Sparkman's head.
'By sending Emissary of the Underworld to the Graveyard, its effect activates! We both now add one Level 3 or lower Normal Monster from our decks to our hands. I choose Thousand-Eyes Idol!'
"Then, I'll go with Burstinatrix!"
'My Battle Phase hasn't ended yet. I use Wicked Doll of Demise to attack the player Directly! Grudge Axe!!'
Wicked Doll of Demise cackled before its head turned upside down at Jaden. Jaden stepped back before the doll threw its axe like a boomerang. Jade grunted as it went through him and landed back in the arm of the doll.
Jaden: 2600
'That's not all!' Jinzo added as Wicked Doll of Demise's soul emerged and struck Jaden.
Jaden: 1800
'Turn end.'
'If I don't do something about that Ectoplasmer…' Jaden though as he struggled to stay on his feet.
"J-Jaden!" Syrus gasped.
"Sarge!" Hassleberry called out, "You legs have done and retreated on you!"
Jaden looked down and yelped. From his knees down, his legs were now undergoing pixilation. He glared at the laughing Jinzo.
'Your life is at 1800, so half your body has essentially become a sacrifice for my resurrection!' Jinzo explained.
"Quit messing around, you bastard!" Adult Rua barked, "That's not a sacrifice! Jaden-niisan, you better kick this guy's ghost ass!"
"Since when did you learn those words?" Ruka asked.
"Gokudera-niisan."
Ruka and Aki slammed their legs together into Gokudera's crotch. Gokudera cried out in pain before falling over, holding the broken area. All the males stared at them in shock for a few minutes, even Jinzo.
"…Anyways…It's my draw!" Jaden continued, "I summon my Elemental Hero Clayman in Attack Mode and equip him with Clay Wrap!"
A ring appeared on the ground before Clayman shot out of it. He shifted into a fighting stance and growled at Jinzo. A filmy brown substance coated his body before seeping into it.
Elemental Hero Clayman: 800/2000
"And now I'm going to kick things up with my other facedown, Polymerization! With it, I fuse Burstinatrix with Clayman to summon Elemental Hero Rampart Blaster!"
Burstinatrix appeared beside Clayman as a portal appeared behind them. The two nodded before jumping into it, fusing together. A large figure emerged from the vortex. She would bulky grey armor with a strange blaster for a left arm and hand, a gold and crimson shield in her right, and silver and grey shoulder guards. Her head was covered by a red and yellow helmet that even shielded her eyes.
Elemental Hero Rampart Blaster: 2000/2500 Effect: If this monster is in defense mode, you can cut its Attack Points in half and deal that damage to the opponent.
"Now Clay Wrap activates! You see, when Clay Wrap goes to the graveyard while Clayman is wearing it, it gets to destroy a Spell Card or a Trap Card! And I think your Ectoplasmer is perfect!"
"Alright! Now he doesn't have to worry about its effect anymore!" Kyoko cheered.
"But was it a smart move? If he had kept it on the field, he would have been able to deal out 3000 points of damage to Jinzo on this turn and end it all," Yusei said.
"He is like me," Jack spoke, "He doesn't use things he didn't even want!"
"And that kind of attitude kept you from getting jobs back in Neo Domino City," Jin snickered.
"…Crow!!!" Jack roared, "If you hear me, you better not let me find you or else!"
"Let's do this! I attack with Rampart Blaster! Rampart Shot!!"
Rampart aimed at Jinzo with a smirk. From the blaster arm, she launched a volley of missiles of various sizes and shapes. Jinzo cried out as they struck him and the area around his form.
Jinzo: 500
"Alright, Jaden-kun!" Syrus, Kyoko, and Haru cheered.
"That's the way, Young Jaden!" Adult Lambo called out.
"You win and I'll get you a lot of ramen!" Adult I-Pin declared.
"Do you really think I'll let myself be sacrificed?" Jaden asked, "I end my turn with a facedown."
'It's my turn! Draw!' Jinzo declared before he began to laugh, 'It seems the time has come! Soon, the ritual for my resurrection will now begin!'
"What?!"
'I activate my Malice Doll of Demise's effect to revive him. I release my Killer Doll of Malice to Advance Summon Jinzo in ATK Mode!'
Jinzo vanished as his card faced everyone. The lightning surrounding the area turned violet in color and struck the card. Everyone looked away from the flash of light and looked to see a circular billowing cloud. Purple lightning emerged from it before Jinzo appeared once more.
Jinzo: 2400/1500
"So he finally summoned himself…" Yusei said.
"Jinzo's finally been resurrected!" Adult I-Pin gasped.
"Iie…Jaden is still there," Alexis replied, "That means it's still incomplete."
'That is correct! Jaden, once I defeat you, my resurrection will be complete!'
"Just try it!" Jaden replied.
'Futile! I attack Rampart Blaster with myself! Cyber Energy Shock!!'
Jinzo charged up a sphere of white electricity and threw it. Rampart screamed in agony as she was hit by the sphere and engulfed in a pillar of white flames and lightning before exploding. Jaden grunted as he braced for the impact of the explosion.
Jaden: 1400
'Turn end.'
"This is not good. As long as Jinzo is on the frontlines, Sarge can't use Guerilla Warfare tactics to help him get out of jams," Hassleberry frowned as Jaden drew.
"I summon Wroughtweiler in Defense Mode and I guess that's it," Jaden sighed as a obsidian and cobalt mechanical dog appeared on his side of the field.
Wroughtweiler: 800/1200
"Why did he play that mutt?" Jack asked.
"It's because when that 'mutt' as you call him is destroyed, Jaden-niisan can place into his hand from his Graveyard one Polymerization and one Elemental Hero that was used for a Fusion Summon," Adult Rua explained.
"I wonder what card he'll play…" Bastion muttered.
'I draw. I summon Spirit Caller in Defense Mode,' Jinzo said as the old, poor man in a simple grey robe appeared beside him, 'And I use myself to attack Wroughtweiler! Cyber Energy Shock!!"
Spirit Caller: 1000/1000
A beam of purple lightning roared out of Jinzo's hand, striking the poor canine machine. Wroughtweiler howled in pain before he was destroyed. Jaden smirked.
"Since Wroughtweiler is in the pound, I can add Clayman and Polymerization back into my hand!" Jaden smirked.
'But all your monsters on the field are gone. I use Spirit Caller to attack the player directly! Gloomy Fang!!'
Spirit Caller's pure white eyes turned a deep glowing scarlet. He opened his mouth into a large 'O'-shape to reveal various spiked fangs in it and released a sonic wave from his mouth. Jaden cried out as he covered his ears in pain while everything below his neck began to go under pixilation.
Jaden: 400
"He's only got 400 Life Points left!!" Syrus gasped.
"Jaden-kun…" Alexis whispered.
'And, I equip myself with the Equip Spell, Amplifier, from my hand! With this, I won't be affected by my own effect, and I can activate Trap Cards. I set one card facedown. Turn End,' Jinzo finished his turn as a spiked mechanical helmet formed on his head.
"T-This is bad!" Ryohei exclaimed.
"Jaden-san can't use his traps still…" Chrome spoke.
"My turn! Draw! I play Pot of Greed! Now I get to be a bit greedy and draw two cards," Jaden spoke, "Now I summon my Elemental Hero Bubbleman in Attack Mode along with equipping him with Bubble Blaster from my hand, raising his attack to 1600!"
Bubbleman appeared on Jaden's side of the field with a grin. He was holding a water-blue and red bazooka. He looked over at Jinzo's side of the field and scowled at him.
Elemental Hero Bubbleman: 800/1200-1600/1200
"Here we go, Bubbleman, attack with Bubble Shoot!!" Jaden ordered.
Bubbleman nodded before going down to one knee. He aimed and pulled the trigger, firing a shell of water at Spirit Caller. The poor man drowned upon impact.
'At this moment, I activate the Trap Card, Spirit Barrier! As long as I have a monster on my side of the field, all Battle Damage is reduced to 0!'
"I activate the Spell Fairy of the Spring, from my hand!" Jaden continued, "This will let me add an Equip Card in my Graveyard to my hand, but I won't be able to use it until my next turn."
Behind Jaden, a fairy made of mist appeared wielding an orange jagged sword and a sleek obsidian one. The swords slashed Jaden's Duel Disk and Clay Wrap emerged from the Graveyard. Jaden picked it up and placed it in his hand.
"He's going to use it again!" Yamamoto cheered.
"Come on, Jaden, get Extreme!!!" Ryohei roared.
"I end my turn with a facedown, Jinzo. It's your move."
'It's my turn. Draw! I attack Bubbleman with myself! Cyber Energy Shock!!'
"Heh. If Bubbleman has Bubble Blaster equipped, I can send that to the graveyard instead of my hero and negate the Battle Damage I would have been hit with," Jaden smirked.
Jinzo fired a purple lightning beam. Bubbleman threw his bazooka at the attack. The two collided and the weapon was destroyed.
'I play one card facedown. Turn End.'
Jaden drew. He looked at his card with a gentle smile upon his face. It was a close card to him.
'Winged Kuriboh…' Jaden thought.
"Kuri-kuri!"
Jaden looked up from his card and gasped. Floating before him was none other than his Duel Spirit, Winged Kuriboh, along with Tsuna's Elemental Hero Duel Spirits Clayman and Mudballman. He looked over to see the other Duel Spirits with their owners.
"Guys! You're all back!!" Jaden gasped.
"That's right, my boy Jaden," Bubbleman said, "We got Partner-sick and came back to only find you in some trouble."
"Jinzo, Obelisk, Slifer, and Ra are furious at what you are doing," Ozorano said, "Cease this now or else!"
'Never! You spirits are pathetic!'
"Pathetic?! These guys don't need sacrifices like you do!" Jaden scolded, "As long as our hearts are linked, we can meet anytime! I summon Clayman in Attack Mode!"
"Jinzo, prepare to get pulverized!" Clayman declared as he appeared on the field.
"And, from my hand, I activate the Spell Card Clay Wrap!" Jaden continued as Clayman was coated in the substance once more, "And now I activate Polymerization! I fuse Bubbleman with Clayman to Fusion Summon Elemental Hero Mudballman!!"
The two heroes ran into the vortex. From the other side of the portal, Mudballman emerged. He eased into a Sumo stance and growled at Jinzo.
Elemental Hero Mudballman: 1900/3000
"And now Clay Wrap activates, destroying your Amplifier!"
Jinzo gasped as purple lightning began to spark from his helmet. He cried out as the helmet exploded. Everyone saw his material form turn into its semi-real form.
"What just happened?" Jaden asked.
"When Amplifier is destroyed, Jinzo gets destroyed along with it," Jin explained, "How could you not know this? I know Crowler…You feel asleep in the class again?"
"Yep!"
"Attaboy, Jaden!" Jin cheered.
"Jin, don't encourage the boy," Yanagi scolded.
'We're not done! I will be resurrected, and I won't let you interfere! Reverse Card, open! Call of the Haunted! I will now revive myself…'
"I won't let that happen! Reverse Card, open! Solemn Judgement! I pay half of my Life Points and negate your card's activation!"
A bolt of white lightning struck the ground before Call of the Haunted, reforming into two maidens and a man in white robes and a grey beard. The maidens picked up the card while the old man aimed his staff at it. A bolt of white lightning came from it and destroyed the card.
Jaden: 200
'What?! No!!' Jinzo roared.
"Mudballman, end this now by attacking Jinzo! Now, die, Jinzo! Mud Stomp!!"
"Taste mud, fool!" Mudballman roared.
He slammed his hands together. A red shockwave shot out of them and hit the ground, releasing a tidal wave of mud. Jinzo cried out as the mud engulfed him.
Jinzo: 0
"And that's game!" Jaden grinned.
'No!!! I will not allow it!' Jinzo roared as he erupted from the land and grasped Jaden, 'I will not remain a spirit any longer!'
"Hey! Let go of me!" Jaden barked, "Talk about a sore loser…"
Leon transformed into Leon-Gun and Reborn shot Tsuna in the forehead. Tsuna entered Hyper Dying Will Mode and slugged Jinzo. Jinzo staggered backwards from the hit as Tsuna stood in front of Jaden.
'That flame…' Jinzo gasped, 'I sense power…!!!'
Tsuna flew at Jinzo and slugged him once more. This time, Jinzo didn't move at all. His body began to absorb Tsuna's flames.
'Such power!! More! I must have more! Give me all that power!!!'
Tsuna cried out in pain as his flames erupted into a larger size. They began to be absorbed into Jinzo's form. Jinzo began to cackle as Tsuna fell to his knees.
"Excuse me…" several voices said as a large finger tapped Jinzo's shoulder.
Jinzo turned and was slugged by Yusei's fist, Tsuna's Blue Eyes Shining Dragon's foot, Elemental Hero Terra Firma's fist, Ozorano, and Junk Warrior. Jinzo was sent flying backwards into the fence behind him as Yusei helped Tsuna up. The other Duel Spirits surrounded the two as Jinzo slowly got up. Yusei walked over to the other and placed Jaden next to Alexis before turning to Jinzo.
"Jinzo, you dare go against your word?" Yusei asked, "I cannot forgive you for hurting one of my friends!"
Suddenly, his Signer Mark erupted in a crimson light. The sky darkened as the other three Signer Marks began to glow as well. With a earth-shaking roar, Crimson Dragon materialized. Nearby, a hawk with its wings coated in Mist Flames observed the sight with a camera beside it.
"Sir…Is that a…dragon of energy?!" A scientist gasped.
"So…It seems that I owe Viper 100,000,000 yen…" Verde spoke before an explosion rumbled the ship, "What happened?"
"Sir, we tried to scan the dragon, but the machine just exploded the moment it started!" a scientist exclaimed.
"The anomaly increased just before the Crimson Dragon appeared, sir!" a female scientist called out.
"The Signers exist as well?" Verde pondered, "Keep recording! All of you!" 'How is this possible? This…Duel Spirits cannot exist! It's illogical!'
A glow distracted him for a moment. He looked down and saw Lightning Flame erupting off his pacifier. His eyes widened when the flames transformed into Crimson Lightning Flames.
Everyone gasped as the Vongola Rings erupted in Crimson-colored versions of their normal Dying Will Flames along with Reborn's pacifier. The seven rings along with Reborn's pacifier slipped off their bodies and floated around the Crimson Dragon. Five crimson beams shout out of the dragon when the Crimson Dying Will Flames entered the dragon's form. One beam shot off in the north while the other four struck Yusei's index finger, Aki's index finger, Jack's index finger, and Ruka's Rain Ring. The rings and pacifier landed in their places once more before the Crimson Dragon vanished. The crimson energy coating a bit of their index fingers or ring vanished, revealing each now wore a ring with their Signer Mark. Yusei's ring had the Crimson Dragon Head and the band was orange and the plate obsidian like the others. Aki's ring band was violet and crimson, Jack's was purple, and Ruka's was blue and green.
"The Crimson Dragon just…" the original Lightning Guardian-turned Duel Spirit began.
"It used the Tri Ni Sette pieces in the area and used them to create new Dying Will Flame Rings," Giotto said, "Dying Will Flame Ring: Version Signer!"
"Whoa…" Adult Rua awed, "So this is when you got them…"
Yusei removed his Duel Disk from his D-Wheel and activated it. A gentle Sky Flame tipped with the crimson flame emerged from the ring. Yusei faced Jinzo as the lightning increased. Jinzo cackled as his form became solid enough to look as if he could hold actual card. The lightning destroyed one of the towers and the pieces transformed into a Duel Disk on Jinzo's arm. It was a deep emerald green and obsidian with spikes around the arm part of it. A deck of cards formed within it as cabled seeped out of Jinzo's skin and fused to the Duel Disk.
"Duel Start!'
Yusei Fudo: 8000
Jinzo: 8000
'I will make the first move,' Jinzo said as he drew, 'I summon Killer Doll of Malice in ATK Mode."
From a purple mist, the doll appeared. It gave Yusei a look and began to cackle. It took out its axe and began to happily imitate himself chopping off Yusei's head.
Malice Doll of Demise: 1600/1700
'Now I activate from my hand the continuous Spell Card 'Ectoplasmer,'' Jinzo continued as the Spell Card appeared behind Malice Doll of Demise, 'You know what it does already, so there's no need to explain myself.'
Malice Doll of Demise fell to the ground, limp, before turning into shards. Its ghastly spirit erupted from its body before flying over to Yusei. Yusei grunted as the ghost flew around him before going into the 'Ectoplasmer' card.
Yusei: 7200
"Oh no. Yusei-kun…" Tsuna whispered before crying out in pain and falling over.
"Tsu-kun/Tsuna-kun!" Kyoko and Haru gasped.
"Juudaime!" Gokudera yelped.
"Jinzo absorbed 70 percent of his Dying Will Flames," Reborn explained, "When Jinzo has been defeated, they'll return to him."
'Turn end.'
"My draw!" Yusei called as he drew, "And from my hand, I summon my Speed Warrior! When he's summoned from my hand, his attack doubles for that turn only."
A hole appeared in front of Yusei's field when he placed the card on his Duel Disk. Speed Warrior shot out of the hole at high speeds and preformed a few aerial flips. He skidded to a halt in front of Yusei and a blue aura emanated from him.
Speed Warrior: 800/400 - 1600/400
"Now attack with Sonic Edge!!" Yusei ordered as Speed Warrior kicked Jinzo in the gut.
Jinzo: 6400
"And now I play two cards facedown and activate Ectoplasmer, sacrificing Speed Warrior and dealing out 400 points of damage to you!" Yusei continued.
Speed Warrior preformed a few flips before his spirit shot out. His spirit charged at Jinzo and kicked right through him. The spirit and its corpse vanished as Jinzo grunted in pain.
Jinzo: 6000
"Alright, Yusei!" Yamamoto cheered.
"He's taken an extreme lead!" Ryohei roared, "This is going extreme!!"
"No, this is a soul-risking battle with a Duel Spirit," Kyoko spoke, "A Shadow Duel. Don't lose, Yusei-kun…"
'It is my draw,' Jinzo said, 'The Malice Doll of Demise that is in my Graveyard because of the effects of Ectoplasmer is reborn during my Standby Phase! Along with my doll, I will call forth Emissary of the Underworld!'
As Malice Doll of Demise emerged from the ground, laughing, dark spores began to appear on Jinzo's side of the field. The spores collected together and solidified into the reaper-like monster. It cackled as it practiced swinging its scythe.
Emissary of the Underworld: 1600/600
'Emissary of the Underworld, attack him directly! Soul Hunt!!'
"Reverse Card, open! Go, Scrap-Iron Scarecrow! Now your monster's attack is negated!" Yusei countered.
A scarecrow made out of biker parts and a biker helmet appeared. EotU rose its scythe and swung, cleaving the scarecrow's head. The remains then turned back into a facedown card.
'My Battle Phase hasn't ended yet! Malice Doll of Demise, attack the player directly! Grudge Axe!!'
The living doll laughed as it threw its weapon like a tomahawk. Yusei cried out as the axe sliced the top of his left shoulder, staining itself and Yusei's jacket with its crimson liquid. It returned to the doll and it licked the blood right off.
Yusei: 5600
'That's not all! Ectoplasmer activates once more!' Jinzo continued as Yusei was struck by the spirit of the doll once more.
Yusei: 4800
'Turn end.'
'If I don't do something about that Ectoplasmer…' Yusei thought as his Signer Mark began to glow and the Dying Will Flame increased in intensity and size, "I summon Junk Synchron and with his effect, I can bring back Speed Warrior!"
A spark of lighting erupted from his field before transforming into Junk Synchron. Junk Synchron held his hand out to his left and a portal appeared. Speed Warrior skated out of it and jumped onto the field. Junk Synchron jumped in front of Speed Warrior and pulled his chord. The engines on his back began to rev and glow a gold light.
"Tuning Speed Warrior together with Junk Synchron…"
Junk Synchron shot up into the air as a bolt of lightning before splitting into three speedometer-like rings. Speed Warrior jumped into the air and went through them. His body changed into an orange outline before that was stripped to leave two white stars.
"Clustering star will call upon a new force! Become that path its light shines upon!" Yusei recited as a pillar of green light erupted from where Speed Warrior and Junk Synchron were, "Synchro Summon! Show yourself, Junk Warrior!"
The pillar of light dissipated to reveal a noble Junk Warrior. It's optics glowed scarlet before he punched in front of him, releasing a shockwave accompanied with lightning from his larger fist. He floated in front of Yusei.
Junk Warrior: 2300/1300
"Now I activate Angel Lift! Come back, Speed Warrior!" Yusei called out as his Level 2 Warrior returned, "Now Junk Warrior's effect activates! He gains the attack points of each monster Level 2 and below on my field!"
'What?!'
Junk Warrior: 3100/1300
"Now, Junk Warrior, attack Emissary of the Underworld with Scrap Fist!"
The engines on Junk Warrior's back ignited and he flew at the reaper. He reeled his larger fist back as it was coated in purple energy and extended it in a punch. A giant purple outline of the fist collided with the Emissary. It cried out in agony before exploding.
Jinzo: 4500
'By sending Emissary of the Underworld to the Graveyard, its effect activates! We both now add one Level 3 or lower Normal Monster from our decks to our hands! I choose Wicked Thousand-Eyes Idol!'
"I pick the only Normal Monster I have, Unicycular! Now my Speed Warrior gets another hit! Attack with Sonic Edge!" Yusei ordered as Speed Warrior kicked another hole in Jinzo, "And now I use your spell once more to deal 400 points of damage to your Life Points by ending my turn with two facedowns!"
Jinzo: 3300
Jinzo drew a card. In a swirl of dark energy, Killer Doll of Demise emerged. Yusei smirked.
"I activate my trap! Dust Tornado! Now I destroy you continuous Spell Card and play another facedown!" Yusei called out.
A tornado destroyed Ectoplasmer before a facedown appeared on Yusei's field once more. Jinzo simply began to cackle.
'It seems the time has come! Soon, the ritual for my resurrection will now begin!' Jinzo laughed, 'I release my Malice Doll of Demise to Advance Summon Jinzo in ATK Mode!'
Jinzo vanished as his card faced everyone. The lightning surrounding the area turned violet in color and struck the card. Everyone looked away from the flash of light and looked to see a circular billowing cloud. Purple lightning emerged from it before Jinzo appeared once more.
Jinzo: 2400/1500
"So you finally summoned yourself…" Yusei said.
'Yusei, once I defeat you, my resurrection will be complete! Along with that majestic flame and your Signer powers, I will take over this realm for myself!! Not even Obelisk, Slifer, and Ra will have a chance to defeat me!'
"Just try it," Yusei replied.
'Futile! I attack Junk Warrior with myself! Cyber Energy Shock!!'
Jinzo charged up a sphere of white electricity and threw it. Junk Warrior roared in agony as it was hit by the sphere and engulfed in a pillar of white flames and lightning before exploding. Yusei grunted as he braced for the impact of the explosion. Debris from Junk Warrior's remains sliced bits of his shirt and pants while drawing blood.
Yusei: 4700
'Turn end.'
'Damn. This is…this is more like fighting a Psychic Duelist...! Hm?'
Yusei looked down and his eyes widened. The ring's flame was larger than before. The crimson edge appeared to have become smaller, but it was actually moving into the center of the flame.
'Is it responding to my Life Points weakening?'Yusei pondered.
'Make your move, sacrifice,' Jinzo ordered.
"I summon Sonic Chick in Defense Mode and end my turn," Yusei spoke as his pink bird appeared, kneeled down and its wings shielding its body.
Sonic Chick: 300/300
"Alright. Now he's got a good defense!" Rua cheered, "With Sonic Chick out, only monster below 1900 Attack Points can destroy her!"
'I draw. I summon Soul Caller in Defense Mode,' Jinzo said as the old, poor man in a simple grey robe appeared beside him, 'Then I use Spirit Caller to destroy your Sonic Chick! Now Spirit Caller will destroy Sonic Chick and I then attack you directly!'
Spirit Caller: 1000/1000
Sonic Chick cried out in pain as Spirit Caller destroyed her with a sonic boom screech. Yusei grunted as he braced for Jinzo's lightning. The purple lightning collided with him and he cried out in agony. The attack ended and steam hissed from his body and burnt remains of his shirt and jacket.
Yusei: 2300
"Oh no! I'm sorry, Yusei," Sonic Chick bowed as the Dying Will Flames increased once more, the core turning pure crimson.
"It's alright…" Yusei grunted, shaking off a bit of the sparks remaining on his body.
'And, I equip myself with the Magic Card, Electric Amplifier, from my hand!' Jinzo exclaimed as he donned a spiked mechanical helmet, 'With this card, I can use my Trap Cards whenever I want. I set one card facedown and play Block Attack to shift Spirit Caller into Defense Mode. Turn End.'
"I draw," Yusei said as he drew, "Now I play Graceful Charity. With this, I draw three cards and then discard two of them. Now I discard one more monster card from my hand to special summon Quickdraw Synchron!"
As Yusei discarded a third card, a hole appeared beside Sonic Chick. A figure shot out of the hole and landed beside her. He was a short blue robot with brown cowboy-like metal boots and two yellow guns in holsters at his sides. The red, green, and blue orbs on his lower blue armor glowed softly as his tattered cape-like scarf blew gently in the wind. He gazed at Jinzo with his single visible blue eye hidden under his weathered hat with a feather on the band.
Quickdraw Synchron: 700/1400 Card Note: This card cannot be used for Synchro Summoning unless the Synchro Monster requires a Tuner Monster with the word 'Synchron' in its name.
"Now I use his effect to pick him for any one Tuner Monster I have that has the word 'Synchron' in its name and I pick my Nitro Synchron!"
A few card appeared before Quickdraw Synchron. He took out a gun and shot one of the card, causing it to spin. It stopped when the other cards vanished, revealing the Nitro Synchron card. It entered Quickdraw Synchron and he began to glow softly.
"Now I summon my Change Synchron! And with him out, the Quillbolt Hedgehog I discarded comes back!"
Another two portals opened and two figures shot out of them. One resembled a cartoon hedgehog with various bolts and screws adorning its back while it glared at Jinzo with its blue eyes. The other was an orange and white robot. It was around the size of Lambo and had a blue orb in the middle of its body. On its head was a strange metal switch while two metal wings kept it floating in the air.
Quillbolt Hedgehog: 800/800
Change Synchron: 0/0
"Now I tune Quickdraw Synchron with Quillbolt Hedgehog!"
Quickdraw Synchron glowed before transforming into five Speedometers in the sky. Quillbolt jumped through them, turning into a green outline of himself and then into two stars.
"Clustering Minds will now become a new force! Become the path its light shines upon!" Yusei recited as the stars and speedometers transformed into a green light, "Synchro Summon! Burn on, Nitro Warrior!"
From out of the light, a large monster appeared on the field. The monster was a green and black mechanical and rock-like demon figure with its gorilla-like arms outstretched. It had pale metallic-yellow horns on both sides of his head like a bull, and a metallic green jet engine attached to the area inches above his rear. Adorning his back were engine pipes and his arms had gears on the wrists.
Nitro Warrior: 2800/1800
"And just to fill you in, on the turn I used a Spell Card, he gains one thousand Attack Points! Now go get him, Nitro Warrior!" Yusei ordered, "Smash him! Dynamite Knuckle!!"
The engine pipes and the booster rocket ignited. Nitro Warrior roared as a green aura erupted off his body. He charged at Jinzo and the green aura transformed into giant outlines of his burning fists. Jinzo cried out as he was destroyed on the field and appeared back behind his cards.
'I activate my Continuous Trap Card, Spirit Barrier! I take no Battle Damage when one of my monsters is destroyed as long as I have one on the field,' Jinzo countered as a ghostly apparition circled his form.
"That's fine with me!" Yusei replied, "Now my Nitro Warrior's effect activates! When Nitro Warrior destroys an opposing monster in battle, it can switch an opponent's Defense Mode monster to Attack Mode and battle it."
'What kind of effect is this!?'
"Nitro Warrior's power return to 2800, but it's more than enough to utterly demolish your Spirit Caller," Yusei continued.
Jinzo growled at Yusei, hoping his glare would more than enough be able to silence the Signer. Nitro Warrior roared as he reeled his fist back. He swung it and put a hole through Spirit Caller's heart, destroying him.
Jinzo: 1500
"Turn end with two facedowns."
Jinzo drew. He began to chuckle before releasing a dark laugh.
'I summon my childhood form, Jinzo-Returner!' Jinzo called out.
A short skinny version of Jinzo appeared on his side of the field. He wore a tight black jumpsuit with a topaz line going down the middle with two belts across his body, obsidian gloves and boots, gold spiked wrist-cuffs and belt, and his mask was replaced by a yellow pair of goggles with red lenses, revealing his sharp fangs protruding from his mouth.
Jinzo-Returner: 600/1400
'I reveal my facedown, Mystic Wok,' Jinzo continued as his younger self fell into a large burning wok, turning into a large wok of rice and vegetables, 'Now I gain Life Points equal to either his ATK or DEF and I chose DEF.'
Jinzo: 2900
'Now, due to my younger self being in the Graveyard, I can revive myself to the field!' Jinzo cackled as he reappeared on the field, 'But I won't stay for long, for I will evolve! I sacrifice myself to Special Advance Summon Jinzo-Lord!"
He grew a foot taller as his green armor turned into silver. A third crimson lens appeared on the middle of his forehead as a third eyes was appearing. Six leather straps shot out of the back out his torso armor and sparked at the ends. Gold spiked cuffs connected to his wrists and his collar turned gold along with a line down the middle of the outfit, going under the silver armor. Yusei stepped back from the increasing waves of electricity that were being generated.
Jinzo-Lord: 2600/1600
'Ahh…I just love this new power!' Jinzo-Lord cackled, 'Now I destroy my face-up Trap to deal 300 points of damage to your Life Points!'
His six straps wrapped around Supiritto Baria. It was coated in lightning before being thrown at Yusei. Yusei cried out as he was zapped upon the card's impact with him. The shocks soon ended and Yusei fell to his knees.
Yusei: 2000
"Oh no! Yusei-kun!" Kyoko gasped.
'Give it up, Yusei Fudo! I shall win! I now equip myself with the last card in my hand; Seven Complete! Now I use it to increase my attack even further by 700! Now I attack your Nitro Warrior with Lightning Obliteration!'
A crimson '7' appeared on his middle eye as the lightning condensed into his left hand. Jino-Lord charged at Nitro Warrior. He reeled his hand back.
Jinzo-Lord: 3300
"I remove from my Graveyard and from play my Shield Warrior! This negates your attack!" Yusei countered.
A spectral version of Shield Warrior emerged in front of Nitro Warrior. Jinzo-Lord's hand went right through it, the electricity being absorbed into him. Jinzo-Lord jumped back as Shield Warrior vanished.
'You may have stopped it this turn, but you will regret it! I end my turn!'
"No, Jinzo-Lord, you are the one who will regret," Yusei said, "You took the lives of two students and attempted to take Takatera's spirit as well…I will not forgive you for endangering so many lives!"
Suddenly, the Signer Marks began to glow. Everyone gasped as they saw Jack, Ruka, and Aki's Signer Marks turn into dust. They looked back at the duel to see the top card of Yusei's deck was releasing a golden light. A red glow erupted from his back, transforming into the Crimson Dragon Symbol on his back.
"My…turn!" Yusei roared as he drew, "I tune my Change Synchron with Nitro Warrior! Clustering hopes will become a new shining star! Become the path its light shines upon! Synchro Summon! Take flight, Stardust Dragon!"
Change Synchro was engulfed in an orange glow before transforming into a single speedometer. Nitro Warrior went through it, becoming a green outline and then seven stars. In a flash of green light, Stardust Dragon emerged in a swirl of stardust.
"Here I come, you freaky Psycho Shocker!" Stardsut roared.
Stardust Dragon: 2500/2000
"When the monster Stardust Dragon is on the field, I can summon Stardust Xiaolong from my Graveyard! Next, I summon Savior Dragon!" Yusei continued as he played the card of golden light as a Chinese Dragon resembling Stardust Dragon appeared.
"Yo! Xiaolong, how's it been?" Stardust asked before the other dragon snubbed him, "What?! Why you…"
Stardust Xiaolong: 100/100
"S-Savior Dragon?!" Gokudera gasped.
From a sphere of gold light, a rose and pink-colored creature appeared. It had a long tail, wings that resembled the Nazca Lines of the Condor with an orange sphere at the starts of each wing, and a round like body/head. It spread it wings out and the gold light dissipated, revealing Savior Dragon coated in a white light.
Savior Dragon: 0/0
'That card is…!!' Jinzo-Lord gasped.
"I'm tuning my Level 8 Stardust Dragon, level 1 Stardust Xiaolong, and level 1 Savior Dragon!" Yusei called out.
The three monsters took flight high into the air. Savior Dragon preformed a mid-air spin and a ring of rose energy erupted from its body. It grew to three times the size of Stardust Dragon as a speedometer appeared within it, absorbing the two monsters and Yusei.
"Clustering stars will bring forth a new miracle! Become the path its light shines upon!"
Stardust Dragon and Stardust Xiaolong transformed into nine stars before forming a straight line in Savior Dragon. A white light roared out of Savior Dragon, engulfing the entire island. The light faded and nearly everyone gawked at the sight before them.
"Come and shine, Savior Star Dragon!"
Floating above the island, even coming close to eclipsing it, was a giant dragon resembling a fusion of Stardust Dragon and Savior Dragon. He was in the same colors as Stardust, yet had four wings in the design of Savior Dragon. His legs resembled more like sleek spikes and armor with a ruby in them just above the knees along with rubies embedded in the wings. He had a long slim form with sapphires in the torso and shoulder armor. His head had three horns on it and resembled more of a crown-like appearance. It roared as it spread its four majestic wings.
Savior Star Dragon: 3800/3000
"W-Where's Yusei-kun?" Syrus asked as he looked around.
"He's in the dragon," Jin replied.
"N-Nani?!" Tsuna gasped.
"Sugoi!" Jaden exclaimed with stars in his eyes, "That is one wicked monster!"
"Of course…" Alexis sighed before Hibari whacked him on the head with a tonfa.
"Savior Star Dragon's effect activates! I negate your effects, Jinzo-Lord!" Yusei called out from within Savior Star Dragon, "Now I activate my first facedown; Dust Tornado! Destroy his Seven Complete!"
'Nani?!'
"Next, Trap Card open! Synchro Baton! For each Synchro Monster in our graveyards, one of the Synchro Monsters on my field gains 600 attack points! There are three Synchro Monsters in my Graveyard! Savior Star Dragon's attack will raise by 1800 ATK Points!" Yusei continued, "Now I play Synchro Blast Wave! When I have a Synchro Monster on my field, one of your monsters is destroyed!"
'No!!' Jinzo-Lord roared before a wavelength appeared and struck him, knocking him over his cards and skidding to a halt at the fence.
"Savior Star Dragon, attack Jinzo-Lord directly! Shooting Blaster Sonic!"
Savior Star Dragon roared as images of Nitro Warrior, Junk Warrior, and Stardust Dragon appeared beside him before entering his body. Savior Star Dragon roared as he was engulfed into a sapphire flame. He flew directly at Jinzo-Lord, roaring and accompanied by Yusei's own roar.
Stardust Dragon: 5600
'Yusei…Fudo…' Jinzo-Lord gasped before crying out in agony as Savior Star Dragon ripped right through him.
Jinzo-Lord: 0
Savior Star Dragon landed before them and released a flash of light. The light faded to reveal Yusei walking up while trying to carry two Obelisk Blue students, Mukouda and Isaka. Jin and Jack each picked one of the students with Jin getting the heavier Mukouda.
"That was extreme, Yusei!" Ryohei roared.
"Marvelous finish, Yusei," Bastion applauded.
"Do you guys think they've learned not to mess with the Spirit Realm's residences?" Jaden asked.
"I hope so," Ruka replied with a shiver, "This was almost like when that man tried to invade the Spirit Realm through our duel in the Fortune Cup."
"Almost? Try the opposite," Yanagi replied, "We better get these whippersnappers to their dorm or at least to the Slifer Red Dorm. And by 'we' I mean Jin, Sonny, and Jack."
"Don't make me hit you, gramps," Jin threatened.
"Ah! Run! Jin's having a hissy fit again!" Yanagi, Adult Rua, and Jaden yelped.
"I'll show you 'Hissy Fit!!!'" Jin roared as he chased the trio around the area.
"Crowds…" Hibari muttered as he began to shake.
"Uh oh…" Tsuna gulped as he saw Hibari take out his tonfa.
In a matter of moments, almost everyone was bitten to death by Hibari. Hibari walked off, leaving the majority of the people there out cold and bloodied. Ruka and Aki simply blinked. Out of everyone there, they were the only ones who weren't attacked by Hibari's tonfa. The two looked at each other.
"Do we have to drag them back?" Ruka asked.
"We could use one of my cards," Aki suggested.
"Ano…" Ruka replied with a large sweatdrop.
Nearby, the Box Weapon nodded at the sight. It turned off the camera and strapped it onto its back. It then flew off.
Verde chuckled for a few seconds. Everyone stared as he began to release loud laughter. He hugged himself in laughter a few seconds later before calming down.
"This is marvelous! That dragon had such power if it could create those rings with the Tri-Ni-Sette. And those beings…those Duel Spirits…" Verde calmed down, "Apparently, this game, Duel Monsters, has just what I need for my research. All of you, drop what you are doing. We're shifting our attention to this game, Duel Monsters, to further improve the Box Weapons."
The scientists all nodded and many went over to the various computers. They all began to start research while a few took out some decks and Duel Disks. They walked over to Verde.
"Some of the scientists here play the game when there is free time, Verde, sir," one of the dueling scientists explained, "We know bits of the game as well as some of the stories behind some of the monsters."
"Tell me everything," Verde ordered with a cold, calculating smirk.
Me: Whoa…this is a long chapter.
Kaze: Head ache…
Me: From the chapter?
Kaze: No. From seeing your face! *laughs*
