EPISODE 1-36
Scourge of the Undead
The helicopter landed right on the pad on the roof of Kaiba Corp. headquarters as the sun began to set in a rainbow of autumn hues on the horizon. The pilot got out and ran around to the back. He pulled open the door and Saito Kaiba stepped out. The wind generated by the blades over his head caused his coattails to whip around him violently as he stood staring at the door through which he would soon be entering.
If my grandfather is truly behind this, I'll defeat him, he thought as the pilot brought out a silver briefcase, Regardless of who's responsible, I'm taking them out.
"Young Master Kaiba," the pilot said, "Your Duel Disk." He opened the briefcase and revealed Saito's Blue-Eyes White Dragon Duel Disk.
"I won't be needing it." The rich teenager reached into a pocket inside his coat and produced his deck. "This is all I'll need. And thanks to some new cards, I'll be certain to win." He tucked the cards away safely and walked through the roof access door. He was going to settle things then and there and reclaim his birthright.
ooo
It felt like the few moments right before a big exam, except significantly more threatening. The Big Five – Gansley, Crump, Johnson, Nesbitt, and Lector – had all been defeated. Following Sammie's triumph over the final member of the group, everybody reconvened, Coltyn and Max having evaded their pursuers and rejoined Sammie and Mikey with a gleeful hug and a solemn nod performed by a red head and a cyborg. As they moved forward, retelling the details of what they had figured out and the duel with Lector they swiftly managed to determine that their next objective would be to locate Gozaburo Kaiba and defeat him.
"So this is it, huh?" Mikey thought out loud, "The final boss."
"Unnerving, no?" asked Max.
"We can't let that distract us now," Coltyn replied, "It's because we're about to face the final boss that we have to be even more careful."
"Here's a more pressing question. Who's going to duel him?" Mikey inquired.
"I'll do it," said Sammie, "That bastard kidnapped my parents, so I'm gonna be the one who fucks him up good."
"I don't think so!" a new voice called out. All eyes turned to see a man in a black suit appear with a Duel Disk on his arm.
"I've got this one," Coltyn assured his friends as he transformed his arm into his Duel Disk.
"So you're accepting my challenge?"
"Deal with it." Coltyn drew his starting hand and after winning a quick round of Rock-Paper-Scissors, drew his first card. "I summon Solar Flare Dragon. Next I Special Summon Goka, the Pyre of Malice and destroy Solar Flare Dragon as the cost. Now I play Monster Reborn to bring back Solar Flare Dragon and then activate Inferno Reckless Summon to bring out two more Solar Flare Dragons. Next I play Dark Room of Nightmare and set a card facedown. I end my turn there." With his hand depleted, Coltyn watched as his Solar Flare Dragons' effects kicked in and burned the suited man, followed by three hundred extra points of damage for each burn thanks to Dark Room of Nightmare.
"My turn." The suited man drew. "And I'll summon Marauding Captain and use his effect to summon another Marauding Captain! Try getting through that!"
"I will!" Coltyn drew his card and revealed his facedown, "I activate Ceasefire and with six Effect Monsters on the field, that's three thousand points of damage. Now I play Ookazi from my hand for eight hundred points of burn damage. Now I end my turn." Three more Solar Flare Dragons' worth of burn damage was applied and with the added damage from Dark Room of Nightmare, the suited man was defeated.
As Coltyn deactivated his Duel Disk and the man fell to the floor, Sammie stormed over to him, grabbed him by the lapels, and pulled him up. "Where are my parents?" she demanded with venom dripping from her words.
"And what makes you think I'll tell you?" the suited man asked, "I'm the toughest security guard here. You'll never break me!" Sammie responded to that by lowering the man and then stamping her foot down hard against his groin. The boys instantly winced and Mikey even turned away.
"Where are my parents?" she repeated.
"You'll never get anything out of me!" Sammie responded to his resilience by grinding his testicles under her foot. She repeated her question again as she continually added pressure. When he refused to answer again, she raised her foot and slammed her heel down on his scrotum.
"ALRIGHT, YOU GOT ME!" he screamed, "Head up one floor and follow the signs to the research and development lab!" Sammie's expression of pure ferociousness suddenly turned into a bright smiling face.
"Thank you!" she said oh so cheerily before letting him go and skipping down the hall with the boys running after her.
"I think one of them popped," the guard whimpered as he laid on the floor a broken shell of a man.
ooo
The four teens ran up the flight of stairs and then proceeded through the hallways following the signs. Upon their arrival at the research and development laboratory, however, they discovered that nobody was present. There were neither guards nor hostages; not a single human being. The room's only occupants were several pieces of machinery and equipment.
"That bastard!" Sammie roared, "He lied! There's no one here!"
"Not true," a hollow voice answered," Someone IS here…" A small figure cloaked in a dark hooded robe stepped out from around a corner. Mikey recognized him as the figure he saw with Lector when he appeared at Duel Academy to take Axel Brodie.
"It's you."
ooo
Saito burst into his father's office and saw a man standing by the window looking outside. He recognized him immediately thanks to all the research he had done on the Kaiba lineage. Gozaburo stood tall in the body of Siegfried Von Schroeder. He stood tall like a man reborn, cutting down the identity of a man he had crushed in the past. The flowing pink locks that the German born businessman took great pride in were short and slicked back, a pair of scissors lying on the desk as the floor was littered with beautiful pink hair. A respectable look for the man who called himself Kaiba.
"Grandfather."
"Ah, you must be my grandson. So we finally meet." Gozaburo Kaiba turned around and looked at Saito. "You bear the striking resemblance of your father."
"I'm not here for chatter, grandfather. I'm here to reclaim Kaiba Corp."
"And from whom, may I ask, are you 'reclaiming' this company? Last time I checked, I was a Kaiba, as well. In fact, this company wouldn't exist were it not for me."
"Kaiba Corp. wouldn't have lasted this long if you were still around, grandfather. If it hadn't been for my father, this company would still be manufacturing weapons for warfare."
"Sometimes, my naïve little grandson, you need to create a market for your product."
Saito went silent for a moment before speaking again. "What are you talking about?"
"My plan is well-thought out," Gozaburo explained, "Kaiba Corp. will once again create weapons for others to create a new world. But in order for that to happen, there needs to be a demand. I'll keep this in words simple enough for you to understand. I plan to start a war that will engulf the entire world! And Kaiba Corp. shall supply the weapons to the highest bidders!"
"You're mad, grandfather!" Saito shot back.
"Not mad, a realist. I am a man that understands how the world works and has always worked. I don't pretend to believe the world bends to games and holograms. If anything, I am too much of a gambler to be a good businessman, but I suppose that is why I am good. It is puzzling though how you figured out who I was, but I bet your father had a hand in that" answered Gozaburo.
"I'm going to take back this company, grandfather," Saito repeated.
"And how do you propose to do that?" Gozaburo demanded. Saito reached into his coat pocket and produced his deck. His grandfather laughed out loud. "You truly are your father's son. Alright then, we'll duel for the fate of Kaiba Corp."
ooo
The cloaked figure moved into the center of the room and faced the teens. "If you want the hostages released, then duel me."
"I'll do it," Sammie said as she stepped forward. But as she made her way toward the figure, she suddenly collapsed. The boys quickly ran over and caught her.
"Sammie, you've dueled two Big Five members in a row," Coltyn reminded her, "You can't face him in your condition."
"Fuck…off…" she gasped between breaths.
"He's right, Sammie," Max added, "You can't duel him like this."
"They're my parents. I'm dueling."
"Let me do it, Sammie," said Mikey. Everyone looked at the brunet. There was something in his eyes that hadn't been there before, something that no one saw often. Determination. After a few minutes, Sammie nodded and acknowledged Mikey's offer.
"Bitch smack his ass." Mikey nodded and stood up.
"Mikey, are you sure you can duel?" asked Max, "You took quite a shock in a first one."
"I've had time to recover, Max," Mikey replied as he strapped his Duel Disk to his left arm, "I can do this."
"Your challenge has been accepted," the figure said as he reached into his robes and took out a Duel Disk. Everyone just stared. The thing was ancient! It was the very first model Kaiba Corp. had released to the public. Not only that, but the machine was covered with dirt and rust and the Life Point screen was cracked. One had to wonder if the thing still worked. To their surprise, the cloaked man effortless turned on the power like it was brand new. "Let's do this." He pulled back his sleeve and strapped the Duel Disk to an arm covered with rotting flesh and maggots. Bare bone lay exposed from the elbow up to the shoulder.
Mikey could feel his lunch coming up, but he clamped his hand over his mouth and somehow forced it back down, leaving a very uncomfortable feeling in his throat. The figure took note of this and cackled quietly.
"You seem surprised. Perhaps the least I owe you is an introduction so you know who you are dueling." He reached up and took the robe he wore in his hand and tore it off. The sight before the teens scared them beyond imagination.
It was a short boy with purple spiked hair that looked greased and matted. He was a normal boy once upon a time, but now he looked like something taken from the crypt. His flesh was pale and lifeless as bones, bleached from the sun and exposure tore out from dry leather skin, the scent of rot and decay emanating from him as cuts and scrapes grew from the gnarling and feasting maggots that ate away at him, growing fat like kings. His right eye was glassed over, a film that gleaned with a marble shine. His left eye was burst oozing jelly that lingered by a fleshy string of retina as the movement of a centipede made the light shine off its opaque mirroring shell. Around the standing deadman's neck was a musty and frayed noose that rubbed roughly against his throat, old blood was caked, black as the sun is bright. He smiled a deathly grin, yellowed and fragmented teeth peeking out like rat teeth. The living dead man.
"My name is Bonz, the Hell walker! Feel the fires of undeath that I have become!" he announced in a voice that sounded like a million nails scratching against one's soul, a sound that they didn't know could exist until they heard his voice. Mikey screamed and fell backward as he stepped away.
"Mikey, you better not be chickening out!" Sammie shouted. Mikey sat up and shook his head as he remembered what he had told Sammie.
That's right. I can't back down now, he thought. He stood back up and readied his Duel Disk. Mikey and Bonz drew their starting hands and stared each other down.
"Let's duel!" called Mikey.
"Scream 'til your dying breath!" cried Bonz.
-----------------------
Mikey: 8000
Bonz: 8000
-----------------------
"The first turn is mine," announced Mikey after winning a round of rock-paper-scissors. He placed his fingers on his deck and removed the top card. "I summon Beast King Barbaros in attack mode without any tributes." He placed his card onto the field and his lance-wielding liontaur appeared and roared (ATK/3000 DEF/1200). "When he's summoned without any tributes, Barbaros only has nineteen hundred attack points. I'll set one card facedown and end my turn."
"My draw." Bonz ripped the top card off his deck and placed it in his hand. He flicked off a maggot that was crawling across his cards and played a spell. "I play the continuous spell Call of the Mummy. Now if I have no monsters on the field, I can Special Summon one Zombie monster from my hand. So I'll Special Summon Mezuki in attack mode." He played his monster card and a horse-headed man wielding a large axe (ATK/1700 DEF/800). "Next I'll tribute him to summon a new monster. The Red-Eyes Zombie Dragon!" A grave was suddenly opened up beneath Mezuki and the creature fell in before it was buried. Then in its place arose a monolithic tombstone engraved with the image of a large dragon. The ground in front of the stone burst open and from it arose the reanimated decaying remained Red-Eyes Darkness Dragon (ATK/2400 DEF/2000).
"How did you summon that with just one tribute?" asked Mikey as he stared up in awe at his first Red-Eyes monster.
"I can if that tribute was a Zombie monster," answered Bonz as he took another card from his hand and opened his field tray, "And soon all our monsters will be Zombies, both on the field and in the graveyard, thanks to my field spell Zombie World." He placed the card in and shut the tray. As soon as his Duel Disk registered his card, the room darkened and entire field transformed into one enormous open mass grave. Mikey looked down and paled as he found himself knee-deep in corpses. The moment the field spell was in place, Beast King Barbaros roared as his body slowly decayed until he too became one of the undead. "Next I play Mystical Space Typhoon to send that facedown of yours to an early grave." Bonz played his card and a blast of wind shot out and destroyed Mikey's facedown trap card.
"No, not Skill Drain!"
"Red-Eyes Zombie Dragon, attack!" ordered Bonz, "Undead Fire Blast!" Red-Eyes Zombie Dragon turned to Mikey's Beast King Barbaros and opened its mouth. Spirit flames gathered up inside its maw before it unleashed a blazing sphere of ghost fire that obliterated Beast King Barbaros.
-----------------------
Mikey: 7500
Bonz: 8000
-----------------------
"If Red-Eyes Zombie Dragon destroyed a Zombie monster in battle, I can summon it to my side of the field," said Bonz.
"But Beast King Barbaros isn't a Zombie," Mikey pointed out.
"Have you already forgotten the effects of my Zombie World?" asked Bonz as he kicked a skull over to his opponent. "All monsters on the field and in both graveyards are Zombies. Now time to work some necromantic magic. Beast King Barbaros, arise!" Red-Eyes Zombie Dragon flapped its wings and spirit flames poured out onto the ground beside it from which Beast King Barbaros emerged. Since it had been Special Summoned, it had its original three thousand attack points. In addition, to the misfortune of Mikey, it was still Bonz's Battle Phase and the young brunet was wide open. "Beast King Barbaros, Death Sentence!" Taking up his gnarled lance, the undead form of Beast King Barbaros charged and thrust his weapon deep into Mikey's chest.
-----------------------
Mikey: 4500
Bonz: 8000
-----------------------
"I'll end with one facedown. It's your move."
"Finally," sighed Mikey as he placed his fingers on his deck. He looked at the field and gulped. Both of his opponent's monsters were incredibly strong. Nothing he had could stop their attacks. Not only that, but the combined effects of Zombie World and Red-Eyes Zombie Dragon would also place his monsters under Bonz's control. He drew his card and his face brightened when he saw that he had drawn Kuraz the Light Monarch. Now he only had to summon it. Examining his hand, he was relieved to find that he also had Cyber Dragon.
"Oh, there's one more thing," Bonz suddenly spoke up, "As long as Zombie World is in play, you can only Tribute Summon Zombie monsters."
"Oh come on!" Mikey quickly tried to calm himself down and focus.
Okay, think Mikey. Kuraz's effect will also work if you Special Summon him, he thought to himself, I just need to bring him out in some other way. He scanned the other cards in his hand and an idea formed.
"I play Tribute to the Doomed," he declared, "By discarding one card from my hand, I can destroy one monster on your side of the field." He took Kuraz the Light Monarch from his hand and placed it into his graveyard slot. "And I'm destroying Barbaros!"
"Not if my Tutan Mask has anything to say about it," Bonz retaliated as he revealed his facedown, "If a spell or trap targets one of my Zombies with the intent to destroy it, this card negates and destroys that card." As a mummified hand reached up from the ground, a golden Egyptian mask appeared on Beast King Barbaros and surrounded him with a shining aura. The hand was repelled and thrown back into the underworld. "You failed."
"Not quite." Mikey took another card from his hand. "Next I Special Summon Cyber Dragon in attack mode." Amidst the bones that littered the ground, Mikey's cybernetic dragon (ATK/2100 DEF/1600) appeared and roared. Almost immediately, Zombie World aged and eroded its body until it was a rusted and dented piece of ancient machinery. "And now I play Monster Reborn to bring back the monster I discarded for Tribute to the Doomed. Come on out, Kuraz the Light Monarch, and destroy Beast King Barbaros and Red-Eyes Zombie Dragon!" A beam of light shot out of the ground and the golden emperor (ATK/2400 DEF/1000) emerged from the ground with a tattered cape and scarred and worn armor that had long ago lost its luster. However, his undead appearance had no effect on his power and as he stood up, he unleashed several rays of light that pierced the two opposing undead creatures and destroyed them. If Bonz still had eyelids that worked, he would have blinked. However, he had long since lost the need to blink and he simply drew his two cards.
"Because of his own effect, Kuraz can't attack. Cyber Dragon, on the other hand, can." Mikey pointed at Bonz. "Cyber Dragon, direct attack! Evolution Burst!" Cyber Dragon opened its mouth and fired off its laser-like attack and struck Bonz with full force.
-----------------------
Mikey: 4500
Bonz: 5900
-----------------------
"I set one card. That ends my turn." Now that Mikey's turn was over, it was back to Bonz as he drew his card.
"It was a good attempt, but futile." The undead duelist placed a spell card on the field. "I play Card of Safe Return. Now every time I Special Summon a monster from the graveyard, I get to draw one card. Now I use Call of the Mummy's effect to summon a Zombie from my hand. I bring out Il Blud in attack mode." He summoned out a zombie wearing a striped prison suit with its face obscured by shadow, however another and significantly more gruesome face was seen peering out from under its suit through the undone zipper (ATK/2100 DEF/800). However, its entire body was dull blue for some reason. "Il Blud is a Gemini monster and after he's Second Summoned, his effect lets me Special Summon one Zombie monster from my hand or either graveyard once per turn. Now I Second Summon Il Blud!" A light indicating the summoning of a monster shined up from under Il Blud and the creature finally gained color.
"Now since I have Mezuki in my graveyard, I can activate his effect. I remove Mezuki from play to summon a monster from my graveyard." Bonz's Duel Disk ejected his Mezuki and he placed the card into his pocket before taking another card out from the slot and bringing it onto the field. "Red-Eyes Zombie Dragon, arise!" The bones erupted and from them the Red-Eyes Zombie Dragon emerged and roared. At that moment, the hologram of Card of Safe Return flashed and Bonz drew a card. "And now with Il Blud's effect, I resurrect Beast King Barbaros!" For the second time, Mikey watched as his deck's ultimate powerhouse was raised onto his opponent's side of the field. Card of Safe Return's effect was activated and Bonz drew again.
ooo
Elsewhere in the building, Saito stepped onto a platform and it extended outward onto a large playing field. This was Seto Kaiba's private dueling arena. This was where the fate of Kaiba Corp. would be decided. This was where Saito Kaiba would duel Gozaburo Kaiba.
The two platforms positioned themselves over the dueling arena, giving both players a clear view of the entire field. In front of each of them was the duel terminal where they would play their cards and also be able to see what their opponent had on the field. In the middle of the ceiling was an enormous scoreboard displaying both duelists' names and their Life Points.
"You shouldn't challenge your elders," Gozaburo chided mockingly.
"Shut up and duel," was Saito's only response.
---------------------------
Saito: 8000
Gozaburo: 8000
---------------------------
"I'll make the first move." Gozaburo drew his card. "I'll set one monster facedown and a facedown card as well. That ends my turn."
""Your first mistake was even accepting this duel." Saito drew his first card. "I start by playing Trade-In. I discard one level eight monster to draw two cards." He sent Tyrant Dragon to his graveyard and drew two new cards. "I send Darkblaze Dragon, Red-Eyes Darkness Metal Dragon, and Tyrant Dragon from my hand to the graveyard so I can Special Summon Montage Dragon in attack mode!" He slapped his card down onto the duel terminal and summoned out a giant blue three-headed dragon (ATK/? DEF/0). "Montage Dragon's attack points are equal to the combined levels of the monsters I discarded multiplied by three hundred." Tyrant Dragon was a level eight monster, Darkblaze Dragon was level seven, and Red-Eyes Darkness Metal Dragon was level ten, so the sum of their levels was twenty-five. That meant Montage Dragon's total attack power was seventy-five hundred. However, Saito was far from finished.
"Now I activate Monster Reborn from my hand to resurrect my Red-Eyes Darkness Metal Dragon!" In a flash of light, Saito's black metallic dragon appeared on the field and roared (ATK/2800 DEF/2400). "And with its effect, I can Special Summon one Dragon from my hand or graveyard once per turn. I use that effect to resurrect Darkblaze Dragon!" Red-Eyes Darkness Metal Dragon spread out its wings and fired several beams of red light into the ground, causing a four-winged black and orange dragon to rise up from below (ATK/1200 DEF/1000). Since Darkblaze Dragon had been summoned from the graveyard, its attack and defense points were doubled, so now it had twenty-four hundred attack points and two thousand defense points.
"Impressive, grandson," Gozaburo commented, "You get down to business like your father."
"Shut your trap, old man!" Saito barked as he pointed at his opponent's monster, "Darkblaze Dragon, incinerate that monster with Black Searer!" Darkblaze Dragon took in a deep breath and exhaled an orange and black inferno that completely annihilated the card, which turned out to be The Unhappy Maiden.
"When The Unhappy Maiden is destroyed in battle, the Battle Phase for that turn ends," Gozaburo explained.
"I know what the card does," replied Saito.
"Then you must also know that your Darkblaze Dragon's effect is useless if it destroys a card with no attack points."
"I end my turn there."
"My move then." Gozaburo drew. "And I'll begin by activating my facedown. It's my own Trade-In. I'll discard Gogiga Gagagigo as the cost." He sent his level eight monster to the graveyard and drew two cards. He grinned when he saw what he held before continuing his turn. "I'll set another monster facedown and two new facedown cards and end my turn."
"At least try to put up some resistance." Saito drew his next card. "I play Mausoleum of the Emperor. He placed the card in his field spell zone and an ancient imperial tomb surrounded the field with a pit filled with terracotta statues. "Now I sacrifice two thousand Life Points to summon Felgrand Dragon in attack mode!" Two statues were levitated out of the pit and sacrificed along with Saito's Life Points.
---------------------------
Saito: 6000
Gozaburo: 8000
---------------------------
Shortly after the sacrifice had been made, a shimmering gold and black dragon flew down from the heavens and roared upon landing (ATK/2800 DEF/2800). "Next I play Heavy Storm to wipe out all spells and traps on the field." A heavy wind began to blow and Saito's Mausoleum of the Emperor crumbled.
"I chain my two facedowns to your card." Gozaburo revealed his cards. "Two Jar of Greed cards!" He drew two cards.
"Darkblaze Dragon, attack!" ordered Saito, "Black Searer!" Darkblaze Dragon fired another blaze and the facedown was revealed to be Masked Dragon (ATK/1400 DEF/1000). The flames continued onward toward Gozaburo as Darkblaze Dragon's effect was resolved.
---------------------------
Saito: 6000
Gozaburo: 6600
---------------------------
"I summon another Masked Dragon in defense mode." Gozaburo searched his deck for the monster and placed on the field in a sideways position.
"Felgrand Dragon, it's your turn! Shining Annihilator!" Felgrand Dragon reared its head and then fired a shining golden laser from its mouth into Masked Dragon.
"I summon a third Masked Dragon in defense mode." Gozaburo declared as he brought out another dragon.
"Tyrant Dragon, destroy it Dragon Gunfire!" Tyrant Dragon roared and spat a fireball at Masked Dragon, blowing it up. In response, Gozaburo used its effect to summon a small green winged dragon dressed like a foot soldier (ATK/700 DEF/800).
"I summon Troop Dragon in defense mode."
"Montage Dragon, obliterate that monster with Power Collage!" Montage Dragon's three heads charged up energy of varying colors – one red, one blue, and one green – and then fired them at once. The three beams spirals into a helix and destroyed Troop Dragon.
"I summon another Troop Dragon in defense mode."
He's planning to summon Five-God Dragon using Dragon's Mirror, thought Saito, Why else would he have me destroy so many dragons?
"It's my turn now." Gozaburo drew his next card, "I'll set a monster and end my turn."
When Saito's turn came up, he ordered Darkblaze Dragon to destroy Troop Dragon, inflicting seven hundred points of damage to Gozaburo's Life Points.
---------------------------
Saito: 6000
Gozaburo: 5900
---------------------------
After that, he ordered Felgrand Dragon to destroy the last Troop Dragon. With those gone, he focused now on the facedown monster and ordered Red-Eyes Darkness Metal Dragon to attack. It turned out the facedown was Peten the Dark Clown. Gozaburo removed it from play to summon another one from his deck. With frustration and annoying building, Saito ordered Montage Dragon to destroy it only to have it replaced by a third clown. At last the final one was destroyed by Tyrant Dragon.
Alright, calm down Saito. Destroying nine summoning defenders in a row like that could frustrate anyone, the teenage thought to himself. He took in a deep breath and then stood proud as he declared the end of his turn. Gozaburo then drew his next card and set it in defense mode before playing a spell card.
"I play Dragon's Mirror." A large golden mirror appeared on the mans' field and three Troop Dragons and two Masked Dragons were pulled into it as they were removed from play from the graveyard and a few seconds passed before Five God Dragon (ATK/5000 DEF/5000) emerged and roared. "Five God Dragon, attack Darkblaze Dragon!" The five heads turned to the four-winged dragon and fired their respective attacks, blasting their target into countless unidentifiable pieces.
---------------------------
Saito: 3400
Gozaburo: 5900
---------------------------
"I end my turn."
"My move." Saito drew his card and immediately pointed at Five God Dragon. "Montage Dragon, attack! Power Collage!" Montage Dragon fired its attack and struck the five-headed monstrosity.
---------------------------
Saito: 3400
Gozaburo: 3400
---------------------------
"Because of its effect, Five God Dragon cannot be destroyed in battle by any monster of the Earth, Fire, Wind, Water, and Dark attributes," Gozaburo proclaimed.
"I don't care. Tyrant Dragon, attack that facedown with Dragon's Gunfire!" With a loud bang, Tyrant Dragon spat out a fireball at the facedown, revealing it to be Sangan.
"And with Sangan's effect, I'll bring one monster with fifteen hundred or less attack power to my hand." Gozaburo began searching his deck and pulled out a card, which he showed to Saito.
"Is that what I think it is?" the teenager asked.
"The Left Arm of the Forbidden One." Gozaburo added it to his hand. When his turn came up, he drew his card and played it immediately. "Now I play Monster Reborn to bring back Sangan and I'll send it to the graveyard to set a card." As Sangan left the field and was replaced by a glowing square, Gozaburo searched his deck for another card and pulled out Right Arm of the Forbidden One.
"Listen carefully, grandson!" Gozaburo called out, "I have four pieces of Exodia in my hand. On my next turn, I'll have all five!"
"You're bluffing!" called Saito.
"Try me!"
This isn't good! Saito thought to himself.
ooo
Mikey looked up at the massive zombies as they stared down at him ready to devour his Life Points.
"It's over for you!" Bonz cackled, "Your soul belongs to me now!"
TO BE CONTINUED
