Yusuke Yukishiro: Hey, what's happened with hiraki after his duel?
Me (xd): Hiraki's status will be revealed in a future chapter.
Chapter 14
Hunter's Prey
"So what did you tell him?" Lumi asked while holding back a few giggles.
Daisuke sighed and turned the page of his book."I told them to screw off. I don't to hang out with any more idiots like you guys."
Lumi cackled at Daisuke's remark."Aw, you still love us, don't you?"
Daisuke scoffed and continued reading his manga."Anyhow, I wonder what'll have for breakf-" Daisuke's sentence was cut short due to an explosion going off and caused the ground to shake. Lumi and Daisuke exchanged looks and nodded, rushing inside the room Seiko and Irina had gone into. The first thing he noticed was the silhouette of a dragon flying in the middle of the room which quickly shattered like crystal. Next thing he noticed were both sisters laying on the floor.
"What the hell happened here?" Lumi was the first one to speak."They're down...on the ground..." He grinned.
"Enough of your perverted fantasies, you idiot. The culprit is over there..." Daisuke pointed at the young man who was sitting down on a bed and a foot on Seiko's back.
"You bastard!" Daisuke cursed, stepping forward.
"Stop it, you retard!" Seiko growled, shocking both men."Don't you see? You won't stand a chance against him!"
"Seiko...chan..." Irina groaned as she tried to reach her sister's hand.
"What are you saying...?" Daisuke looked confused."How can he just beat the 2 of you?!"
"That's only natural..." Seiko smiled satisfactorily."After all...he is the one we heard about...the one who trashed the Ritual Dimension...Yuke..."
Yuke responded with silence and raised his head, locking eyes with both Daisuke and Lumi.
"No way...I thought it was only just a stupid myth..." Lumi gasped.
"Yuke, darling..." Seiko said lovingly."Would you be so kind to hear me out? I would love to have a man such as yourself on my team."
"How dumb..." Yuke said."You knew you did not possess the power to defeat me... and yet here you are...beaten and asking for a chance to be heard...why?"
"Because, darling..." A sadistic smile formed on her face."What I seek is true chaos. I bet you were bored of being stuck in this room with no one to entertain yourself with, right? What if I told you I can help you relieve your boredom?" Yuke inclined his head, making her know to proceed."What the Professor wants is to create a Utopia but I want something else. We formed the Unifiers of Chaos to liberate this reality from simplicity! Chaos, death, destruction! Everything will be yours if you join me! We will create a world where you will never be bored!"
"Enough," Yuke commanded."I have heard everything from the Professor and can say you're planning something bigger behind him."
"Huh? If that's the case, would you try to stop me?"
"I have no reason to do such thing. I will join you to see what this Chaos you keep mentioning is capable of doing." Yuke removed his feet off of Seiko's back and stood up."However, I will do this because I have a vision of my own. I want to create a perfect world myself...a world full of nothingness. Will this be a problem for your plans?"
Seiko shook her head."Not at all, sweety. As long as you have your fun, everything is good."
"Very well. Judging from that look on your face, you want to introduce me to your subordinates...the Unifiers of Chaos."
"You got it!" Seiko exclaimed, getting back on her feet."Leave it to Yuke and his superhuman deduction skills! Hey, you two! Take my useless sister to heal up! I will take this fine young man to meet his new comrades!"
Daisuke reluctantly nodded and went for Irina's aid.'What is this guy...?' He thought, a cold sweat running down his forhead.'Just him being here is enough to intensify the atmosphere massively...I hope you know what you're doing, Seiko.'
"Damn, that sure is a scary guy." Lumi casually said."No wonder he terrorized Ritual all by himself. Though he doesn't seem to talk about that much."
"The Professor probably is doing something to suppress his memories. I doubt someone with a calm, cold attitude like that can kill people continuously."
"Whatever the case, it's perfect that he's on our side." Lumi grinned, crouching down where Irina's torso was."Now, to help this babe out..."
"You better not do anything stupid...or I'll make you regret ever lusting for a woman..." She said.
"Yikes!"
Yuri rolled his eyes, asking himself why of all people he had to found...her."What are you doing, Wendy?" He asked with a disinterested tone.
"Must you always be so cold with me?" She said teasingly."Man, you sure are a party pooper." She placed her hands on her hips. The young woman had long orange hair past her waist that splits into twin tails with 2 yellow-orange bangs that fall to the side of her face and sleepy, crimson eyes. Her outfit consisted of a small light, lime green neckerchief, an Obelisk Blue jacket with a black shirt underneath and white-belted magenta shorts with red suspenders, and orchid boots. In her right hand, was bracelet with a orange gem inside of a triangle.
"You know what I'm talking about," Yuri replied sharply.
She clicked her tongue in annoyance."Seiko-sama called us because we're getting a new member today. Not that you care, of course, since you're such a loner these days."
"You are a handful, did you know that?" Yuri said."Anyways, I don't feel like talking to you anymore, so go ahead and go do whatever you're going to do."
"Hohoho!" Wendy let out a loud laugh."You're not fun when you're not wild. Peace out, slow poke!"
Yuri watched as she turned a corner and disappeared from his sight."This girl...she just keeps getting more annoying. And...she keeps changing personality wise. Anyways, I better go to the library to finish reading this book in peace and perhaps get a new one."
With a goal in mind, Yuri continued his walk to the library, turning in the same corner where Wendy did.
Outside of Academia, an annoyed looking Ace was sitting down next to Evan who was playing with a pair of dice
Ace kicked a rock away and put his hands in his pocket."Of course, this fucking idiots aren't here in time."
"Maybe we're too early?" Ace inquired.
"Of course you're not, you peasant." A new voiced spoke up. Walking down their way were Junpei, Tatsuyo and Tokomaru.
"Sorry for the inconvenience. Something came up on our way here." Tokomaru apologized.
"No, no! It's quite alright." Evan waved his hand."We just got here ourselves."
"Bullshit! We've been here for 15 minutes!"
"Why are you guys here so early anyway?" Tatsuyo inquired."The memo said to be here at this precise time."
"Apparently the Fusion "masters" don't have a clear sense of timing." Junpei mocked, earning a death stare from Ace.
"Seems like you guys are getting along, as usual." Climbing down a set of stairs were 2 boys and a girl.
One of them had long red hair that went down to his neck and crimson eyes along with sharp teeth, resembling a shark. His outfit was a bright yellow jumper with a dark brown streak on both sides and bright yellow sneakers.
The girl had long golden hair and was wearing a white puffy dress that had a large red rose pinned on it, and a white crown that had sharp edges on it. Her eyes were crimson as well.
Finally, the boy walking in the back had messy black hair that spiked up,with a few white strands, in style of a fade. He was wearing a purple scarf with a long black jacket, a purple shirt underneath, black pants and black boots.
"Shut your dumb ass up, Tariko. I don't need to hear your shit!" Ace snapped.
"What was that?!" Tariko folded his sleeve but felt a hand stopping him."N-Naho?" He stuttered, his face becoming slightly pink.
"We mustn't fight amongst ourselves. Especially today, because our great leader prepared something special for us."
"Right! You are correct, Naho-san!" Tariko cried out.
"Foolish creatures. Always fighting like the untamed animals that you are." Makoto scoffed, covering his mouth with his scarf.
"Come on, Makoto. They don't get along due to nature itself." Tatsuyo explained."You get it? Ace is Fusion and Tariko is XYZ! Ha! Classic."
"Hey, everyone!" Wendy yelled, landing in the middle of the group."Sorry, I'm late."
"Catch your breath, Wendy," Makoto said with a firm, low voice.
"Regardless..." Naho closed her eyes."It's been a long time since we've been reunited like this. How is everyone doing?"
"Pretty shitty." Ace replied."I haven't seen any action since I went over to the Ritual Dimension."
"You guys went there?!" Tokomaru roared, excitement in his voice."Hahaha! The boys and I went to the XYZ dimension a few days go."
"That is indeed correct. We managed to card Dr. Faker and his youngest son. However, Kaito Tenjo managed to escape."
Tariko raised a brow."You carded that old man and little Hart? I guess Kaito must be pissed off right now."
"That is indeed misfortunate. I feel pity towards Hart but he will help us reach our goal along with Mr. Faker." Naho lamented.
"That aside, me and Naho-san went to the Synchro Dimension and came back a couple of minutes ago. We located Serena and Yuzu Hiragi. Apparently, Serena is trapped within a facility ruled by Jean-Michael Roget, a deserter from Academia. Yuzu, on the other hand, is with that Yugo guy."
"Serena and Yuzu Hiragi, eh?" Evan mused and took a glance at Wendy."Wendy's counterparts."
"Along with Rin and Ruri Kurosaki." Makoto remarked.
"You guys have your priorities up your ass." Ace complained."When is Seiko going to show up?"
"I must agree with Ace. She's not the type to be this late for a meeting, especially when it involves a new potential member for our organization." Naho rubbed her chin, her eyes narrowing.
"Speaking of the newbie..." Tariko changed the subject."How do you guys think they will be like?"
Tokomaru laughed and slapped Tariko on the back."I have a feeling he'll be full of energy!"
The others just deadpanned at Tokomaru's sudden outburst. Wendy saw something out of the corner of her eye and immediately screamed.
"What's wrong?!" Tatsuyo grabbed her by her shoulder.
"Seiko-sama!" She squealed. Every Unifier knelt down and lowered their heads, waiting for their leader to come to a halt.
"Everyone! Rise from the ashes!" She declared, everyone standing up. As they did this, they noticed someone standing right next to Seiko. Someone who had a face Tariko, Makoto, Ace, Evan and Naho were familiar with.
"I-it can't be!" Ace stammered in disbelief.
Ace blinked a couple of times as if he thought his eyes were deceiving him."No way..."
Makoto, Tariko and Naho stood next to each other and murmured to themselves, saying how this boy looked identical to Yuto and Yuri.
Upon closer examination, Tatsuyo hit his palm with his fist."I see! He reminds me of a guy back in Synchro."
"I see you guys have already begun gossiping about why this young man is so familiar to some of you." She took out a pair of glasses and tried them on."This young man right here is Yuke! As you can already guess, he's the new member of the organization! Or maybe I should say...leader!"
"LEADER?!" Everyone flabbergasted at Seiko's sudden declaration. A few gasps, growls, and "ohs" filled the area as Seiko cackled.
"There has to be a mistake, Seiko-sama! Why are you saying this all of a sudden?!" Naho scowled.
"Yeah!" Wendy agreed with tears streaming down her face."Why are you abandoning us?!"
Evan tilted his head to the side and placed his hand near his mouth."That's not Yugo...or Yuya Sakaki..."
Ace gritted his teeth, a vein popping out of his forehead."That isn't Yuri or Yuto...then it has to be him...!"
"That can't be! He just can't exist!" Evan said with a baffled tone.
"You guys don't want him as a leader?!" Seiko asked them as if she was asking children if they wanted to eat their vegetables.
"No! We want you only, Seiko-sama!" Everyone declared.
Seiko sighed and turned to Yuke, resting an arm on him."My decision is final. If you don't like him being the leader just take care of him and that'll be it." She drew closer to Yuke's ear."Beat the shit out of them if you want. I don't really care as long as you establish your dominance."
Yuke's eyes twitched slightly but his expression remained emotionless as ever."There is a point to all of this."
"Indeed! Anyways, I have other things to take care of. See you around, everyone!" She started walking away, blowing kisses to her former subordinates."Please treat your leader kindly! And if you don't like him just kill him!"
Yuke continuing observing the woman as she made her way inside of Academia again. With a scoff, he turned to see his "comrades" and noticed how they had already surrounded him in a circle. Their eyes were staring at him with pure rage and hate as if a pack of lions was observing their next meal.
"You guys...heard her, right?" Tatsuyo activated his Duel Disk."All we have to do is get rid of him!"
"That would be the best course of action. I, the Immortal Titan of Darkness, shall take his head as my prize!" Makoto boomed.
"THEN SAY NO MORE! TAKE HIM OUT AT ONCE AND BRING HIS CORPSE TO SEIKO-SAMA!" Tokomaru roared.
"Idiots...all of you..." Ace spat, activating his Duel Disk.
Wendy licked her teeth in a demented way."You look like Yuri...I will enjoy blasting you apart!"
Like a domino effect, every Unifier of Chaos had activated their Duel Disks and took out a card from the top of their Decks.
"How dumb." Yuke raised his head slightly, his scorching red eyes staring at them with emptiness."If you cannot obey...you will be educated on how to do it properly." He readied his Duel Disk.
"Now! The Spell Card, Chaotic Fusion!" Every Unifier said in unison."
Yuri took a sip of his cup of tea as he turned the page of the book he was currently reading. Recently, he has been interested in the marine life and what kind of fauna could be found in the deepest parts of the great ocean.
"I see...so that's why they call them "Killer Whales". They seem to have a very good taste in choosing for their prey." He chuckled, admiring the different pictures of whales his book had."Perhaps I should start getting into action sometime soon. After all, Yuzu Hiragi is still out there along with the traitor." Yuri grabbed his cup and proceeded to take a sip from it until a sharp pain invaded the inside of his chest. Yuri was forced to drop the cup onto the floor due to the intense pain he was feeling and clenched his chest.
"W-what...i-is th-this...?" A glow coming from the inside of his Deck caught his attention. Upon checking his Extra Deck, he realized that Starve Venom Fusion Dragon was glowing intensely. Suddenly, his mind was filled with visions that he could barely see and comprehend. The only thing he managed to recognize was Wendy on the floor, wounds all over her body.
"Wendy..." Out of pure instinct, he got up from his seat, ignoring the pain, and dashed outside as fast as his legs could allow him to.'Why am I doing this? She means nothing to me but yet...'
Shortly after, Yuri exited Academia and looked around the wasteland of a battle that had occurred. As he continues walking ahead, he notices that there were people either unconscious or struggling to not pass out. Among those people were 2 who Yuri was very familiar with; Ace and Evan.
"What the hell...?" Yuri bit his lower lip as anxiety slowly started going through his body."Who took them all out? They are supposed to be at the top of elites."
A noise broke Yuri out of his trance. Taking a battle position, Yuri looked up ahead and saw an unconscious Wendy with a boy sitting on her back. His facial features could not be seen due to his hair covering his face, but Yuri knew better and deduced he must have been the one to defeat the Unifiers of Chaos.
"Are you the one who did this?" Yuri maintained a calm composure. Receiving only silence, Yuri forged on."What do you think you're doing sitting on Wendy?"
After a long pass, the boy opened his mouth to reply."They all made the terrible mistake to understimate me and come one at a time. As you can see, they all ended up regretting their decision."
Yuri raised a brow, a quizzical expression on his face."Huh? What are you saying?"
"This girl...she means something to you deep inside of your heart."
Yuri sniffed with disgust."As if. That girl and I have nothing in common."
Yuke got up from Wendy's back, standing up a few meters away from Yuri. A wave of wind struck the area, removing part of Yuke's hair from his face.
Yuri's eyes widened, nervousness taking over his mind as he stared directly at the man who shared his face."What? Another one who has my face?"
"You're name is Yuri, my Fusion Counterpart, the one who possess Starve Venom Fusion Dragon. Your skills put you way above the students in this Academy, ergo making you undefeated. Also, your nature is a sadistic one, enjoying carding your opponents and playing mind games with them to lure them into a sense of security."
Yuri scowled."How do you know all of this? Have you been doing research on me? I'm flattered!"
"No. It's the first time I've ever laid eyes on you or heard of you. I can tell what kind of person you are just by looking at you." Yuke paused for a second."What I have been informed is that you were part of the mission to capture Ruri Kurosaki and Rin. Recently, you've failed to capture Yuzu Hiragi. Now, I plan to take over this mission and capture both Serena and Yuzu Hiragi."
Yuri grimaced, an eye twitching in annoyance."Huh?! You gotta be kidding me! Do you really think I'm just going to stand aside and talk to me like this? You've got some nerve for one who wears a Secondary Union uniform, you know? Trust me, I have beaten a certain someone who wears the same uniform as you know little to no problem. Too bad he's dead now. But hey, you can be my new punching bag!"
Yuke's eyes seemed to glow even brighter for a second, causing Yuri to feel a chill going down his spine."How boring. Are you intending to engage with me in a duel?"
"You bet! I wanted to take down this arrogant fools but you've done the job for me! Now, all I have to do is card you. After all, only one with our face can remain alive in this place and it will be me." Yuri declared, activating his Duel Disk.
"It's foolish how your ego is conducting you to do make such decision." His chin dipped, some strands of hair fell over his face hid it."I will accept this challenge, however, I expect for you to give me a challenge."
"A challenge, huh?" Yuri smirked devilishly."I'm afraid I'll be done with you sooner than you think!"
"Duel!" Yuri yelled while Yuke murmured.
Yuke vs. Yuri LP: 4000
"I'll let you have the first turn." Yuri winked playfully as he raised a finger."Think of it as me being nice."
Yuke ignored Yuri's words and proceed to examine his hand."I see...very simple."
Yuri inclined his head with curiosity."What are you mumbling over there?"
"From my hand, I Summon Spectral Deva - Sieger in ATK mode." A knight in shining armor blue armor, a light blue silk cape, and a lance appeared on the field.
Spectral Deva - Siege Level 3, Light, Warrior, ATK: 1200, DEF: 300
"Oh? "Spectral Deva"? I assume that's the archetype you use, huh." Yuri mused.
"Siege's effect activates." Yuke stated, a card sliding out of his Deck."When it's Normal Summoned, I am allowed to get a "Spectral Deva" card from my Deck. At this moment, I activate the effect of Spectral Deva - Archelon, which I added to my hand thanks to Siege's effect. When I control a monster with the same attribute as its own, I can Special Summon it to the field."
A massive blue turtle with a hard shell rotated its way to the field, hiding inside of its shell.
Spectral Deva - Archelon Level 4, Light, Beast, ATK: 200, DEF: 2000
"Furthermore, I activate Archelon's effect. Once per turn, I can tribute any number of "Spectral Deva" cards I control and draw the same amount of cards. I sacrifice Siege to draw 1 card." Yuke drew his card monotonously."I set a card face down, ending my turn."
"That's it?" Yuri inquired before shrugging."I suppose a bad hand is always possible."
Yuke inclined his head, urging for Yuri to get on with his turn.
Yuri scowled at his body language."How rude. Here I was, trying to make a conversation. Oh well!" His grin widened as he drew."My turn then! I have the feeling like you're underestimating me because you summoned such low ATK point monster just like that with a face-down. But make no mistake...an error like that could prove lethal against me." He said, his pupils widening to psychotic extends. "I summon Predaplant Flytrap in ATK mode!"
A plant with thin roots and sharp teeth appeared on the field, shaping its mouth like a smirk.
Predaplant Flytrap Level 2, Dark, Plant, ATK: 400, DEF: 800
"Would you look at this majestic plant! Is it not beautiful? This is my archetype." Yuri vowed slightly with pride."If you aren't surprised yet, then let's move on, shall we? I activate Flytrap's effect! When it's Normal Summoned onto the field, I can target 1 monster you control and place 1 "Predator Counter" on it."
Flytrap erupted small little creatures that bit on Archelon's shell."Furthermore, since your monster is Level 4 and has a "Predator Counter", will have its level reduced to 1!"
Spectral Deva - Archelon Level 1
"I activate the Trap Card, Spectral Ray. When a monster on my field is targeted for an effect, that monster cannot be destroyed by battle or card effect for the rest of the turn." Yuke declared as his trap opened up, Archelon's shell hardening and becoming as hard as iron.
"Oh? You saw through me?" Yuri looked intrigued."Very well. Battle! I attack Spectral Deva - Archelon with Predaplant Flytrap!" Flytrap jumped over Archelon's head and bit it, not managing to pierce through its skin.
Yuke LP: 3800
"If you think I'll just leave you with little to no damage then you're wrong! I discard Predaplant Carnivours Felia from my hand and have you take damage equal to the ATK of your monster!" A thing plant with numerous stems with spikes exploded, sending some of its spikes over to Yuke who merely closed his eyes from the sudden attack.
Yuke LP: 3400
"That'll be enough for this turn. I set a card face-down. Up you go!" Yuri chuckled deviously.
"My turn. I draw. I activate the continuous Spell, Deva Proclamation. As long as this card is on the field, I increase the level of all "Spectral Deva" monsters I control by the same amount of one of your monsters."
"So you're planning to increase your now Level 1 Archelon by Flytrap's Level?" Yuri repeated.
"Next, I Summon Spectral Deva - Skeptical Mantis." A black mantis with blades set into its feet and eyes that can see behind its head and a large backside a bit like a bee stinger clapped its blades as it manifested itself on the field.
Spectral Deva - Skeptical Mantis Level 4, Light, Insect, ATK: 1600, DEF: 1200
"Next, I tribute both my Continous Spell and my mantis with Archelon's effect to draw 2 cards." Both of this cards shattered, leaving Yuri very confused.
"What exactly are you doing? Destroying your own cards just for a few draws?"
"When Deva Proclamation is destroyed by a card effect, I'm able to deal you 300 points of damage per Spell or Trap card on the field. Since there's currently 1 on each of our fields, you'll be dealt 600 points of damage." A spiral of darkness surrounded Yuri who covered his face as he felt the damage directly.
Yuri LP: 3400
"Moving on, when Skeptical Mantis is destroyed by battle or card effect, I can target a monster I control and make it count as 2 monsters. I tribute my Archelon in order to Summon Spectral Deva - Demolitioner."
A warrior with black samurai armor, 4 faces, 4 arms, and 4 swords on its back appeared when Archelon disappeared on a light of darkness.
Spectral Deva - Demolitioner Level 8, Light, Beast-Warrior, ATK: 2400, DEF: 2200
"If Demolitioner is Tribute Summoned by a monster with the same attribute as its own, I can add 1 Ritual Spell Card from my Deck to my hand and immediately set it. Now, I activate the Ritual Spell I just set, Deva Epidemic. I offer my Level 8 Spectral Deva - Demolitioner in order to Ritual Summon Spectral Deva - Eclipse.
A skeleton with black bones and purple flesh scattered unevenly around its body opened a hole on the ground and flew over the 2 boys, holding a scythe. It also had 2 horns with black stripes and yellow eyes who glowed intensely.
Spectral Deva - Eclipse Level 8, Light, Fiend, ATK: 2700, DEF: 1500
"From the graveyard, I can banish Demolitioner in order to add 2 monsters with the same attribute as a monster you control. Since it's Light, I'll add 2 of those." Yuke looked through his hand and raised a hand."Furthermore, I activate Eclipse's effect. Battle Phase. Eclipse will attack your monster. Slash from the Underworld!" With a swift slice, Eclipse fired a sharp slash towards Yuri's monster who started freaking out comedically.
"I'm afraid I can't let you do that! I activate my Trap Card, Predator Germination!" Yuri announced."When a Dark-Type monster I control is targeted for an attack, it cannot be destroyed by battle and the attacking monster is destroyed!" From Yuri's trap, a lot of vines were released as they directed towards Eclipse.
"I activate Eclipse's effect. By discarding a Light attribute card from my hand, I can avoid its destruction." The slash cut through the incoming vines and eventually Flytrap. The explosion generated from the battle sent Yuri sliding on the ground for a couple of meters.
Yuri LP: 1100
"Not bad. But Predator Germination's second effect allows me to Special Summon 3 "Predaplant Tokens" in DEF mod-"
"No." Yuke boomed, his voice cutting Yuri's words like a knife."When Spectral Deva - Sonora is sent to the Graveyard by a card effect, I can search a "Spectral Deva" Spell Card from my Deck. The card I chose was the Quick-Play Spell, Spectral Deva Restoration, which can be activated when my opponent activates a Trap Card. I can negate it and destroy it"
Yuri gritted his teeth as he witnessed his card shattered in the air."To think you would be so many steps ahead of me..."
"I set 2 cards face down. Turn end."
"Well, perhaps I underestimated you myself, dear Yuke. But don't worry, we're just getting started after all." He snickered as he drew a card."I summon Predaplant Spinodionaea!"
Predaplant Spinodionaea Level 4, Dark, Plant, ATK: 1800, DEF: 0
A monster resembling a reptile with a fly trap on top of its face appeared on Yuri's field.
"Yuke...I'm about to start wrapping up the warm-up! I activate Spinodionaea's ability! I can place a "Predator Counter" on your monster and make it a Level 1!"
Spectral Deva - Eclipse Level 1
"At this moment, my Continous Trap Card, Devastation! I can target a monster you control and change its attribute. I choose Light. Furthermore, I'll be activating my second Continous Trap Card, Bright Obstruction. As long as you control a Light-Type monster, you won't be able to destroy Eclipse by Battle or effect."
"My, aren't you just full of surprises? Let me compliment you while you're still able to hear. You're by far the strongest person that has ever pushed me this far and that's saying a lot. Of course, I'm including the Unifiers of Chaos." Yuri looked over Yuke's shoulder, gazing upon the unconscious Wendy."Tell me, what is your purpose?"
Yuke remained with his emotionless expression, a couple of seconds before answering."To destroy, annihilate, extinct. I am aware that you know more than enough about the dimensions as how they are other individuals who share our face."
"Well of course. I managed to get one of the ways by forcing him to fight with the other." Yuri held a laugh, clenching his sides."Oh, boy...are you also including the girl's counterparts as well?"
"Indeed. The Professor has commanded me to take over the mission by any means necessary. You standing in the way only complicates things slightly."
"Really? Why is it that you want to destroy? And WHAT do you want to destroy? Are you like me, who just wants to card everyone and become the strongest?"
"How dull. So that's your answer?" Yuke said calmly."A primitive thought like that is nothing more than nonsense."
Yuri frowned at his statement."Really? Then what do you do for fun? What exactly do you believe in, Mr. Grump?"
Yuke blinked, slowly."Like you, I believe the supremacy of power. Society is broken down into many branches; The wealthy, the middle class and the poor. However, there is always someone on top of them all making all decisions, ruling. People below only have one purpose in life: serve to the one who possesses more power than them."
Yuke looked around to see the fallen Unifiers of Chaos before his gazing landing back to Yuri."They have all been taken down by me because of their insolence. Not one of them accepted me as their new figure of authority. Thus, I saw that it necessary to give them a lesson regarding discipline."
"I see. So instead of using getting rid of people who are weaker than you, you make them serve you?"
"No."
"No?"
"Not serve me. Serve the Professor. After all, we are all following his commands in order to achieve the greater good." Yuke's eyes narrowed even more."However, if they decide to resist and attempt to serve "justice", then they are of no use to anyone at all. In short, what weaker people must do is obey the ones who are stronger than them. If they cannot do such simple task, then disposing of them is the best course of action."
At this point, Yuri was left speechless."If you want to know." Yuke's voice interrupted his thoughts."What I seek is not a Utopia or a world filled with Chaos...what I desire is a world of vast emptiness, a perfect world with nothing at all."
"A world...of emptiness?" Yuri echoed.
Yuke's eyes drifted to the sky."I find this world to be pathetically boring and unnecessary. The people habiting on this very dimension are just simple as any other one. The cycle of life is repeatedly gone through; birth, development, and death. So it's the natural course of human history, after all. Hence, I shall put a stop to this meaningless cycle and delete everything that is tedious to me. This dimension and all the others will die down along with the existence itself. Nothing shall be no more but myself."
Yuri retained a serious expression before breaking out in laughter."Man, you really are funny! Even more funny than Dennis. But let's go back to reality for a bit, shall we? I have some questions I'd like to ask you myself."
"You're going to ask me about myself."
"How observant. Yes, I wanted to ask you a few things...see." Yuri put a hand on his hip."You wouldn't happen to know Wendy, would you?"
"No." Yuke flatly answered.
"Now, now...I heard your dimension was destroyed by some sort of experiment, yes? You and Wendy are the only people from that dimension that had the opportunity to escape and come over here, so I highly doubt you have no idea who she is."
"I do not." Yuke wasted no time in replying, much to Yuri's annoyance."I have no memories of ever encountering that girl, much less anyone else for that matter. But telling you anything further is meaningless."
"So you don't know her, huh..." Yuri seemed so what disappointed. Briefly looking at the sky, Yuri's grin returned once more and he laid his eyes back to his prey."Then we have nothing else to discuss. All there is to do is for us to finish killing each other! I activate the Spell Card, Predator Disease. With its effect, your monster is now treated as a Fusion Monster until the End Phase."
"A Fusion Monster? Why would you do that?" Yukio inquired.
Yuri wagged his finger mockingly."You'll see. By discarding Predaplant Black Fungus, I can activate my trump card! The Quick-Play Spell, Super Polymerization!"
Yuke's eyes shot open upon realizing Yuri's true intentions. It hadn't gone unnoticed to him that Yuri was planning something the moment he targeted his Eclipse.
Yuri noticed Yuke's faint reaction and cackled."Seems you realized what's about to come! Due to Super Polymerization's effect, I can Fusion Summon a monster from my Extra Deck using monsters on both of our fields as the materials!"
Ace, who was beginning to regain consciousness, saw Eclipse being pulled inside of a multicolored-vortex alongside Spinodionaea."Wh-what...is going on?"
"Beautiful flowers of malice! With the allure of an innocent plant and the mind of a hungry predator! Fusion Summon! Show yourself before me! Level 8! Predaplant Crapula Maxima!"
A large pot bellied sack of a plant with petals around its enormous red circle for a head and arms made of leafs appeared on the field, opening its giant mouth and showing its razer sharp teeth.
Predaplant Crapula Maxima Level 8, Dark, Plant, Fusion, ATK: 2600, DEF: 2000
"The hell is that...?" Ace wondered, using his arms as support to watch the duel in a better position as he laid on the floor.
"Since Predaplant Black Fungus was sent to the Graveyard, I can draw a card and when Crapula Maxima is Fusion Summoned onto the field, I can deal you damage equal to half of its ATK! Burning Projectiles!"
Crapula Maxima inhaled as much air as it could and fired a vast amount of fire seeds from its mouth. Yuke jumped aside, dodging but one fire seed that almost hit him in his right foot.
Yuke LP: 2100
"When the monster targeted by Devastation's effect leaves the field, this card is destroyed. But when it is, I can Special Summon a monster from my Deck that has the same attribute as the one I announced for the use of my trap. I Special Summon Spectral Deva - Hydrus in DEF position.
A snake with 3 fins with a two-tone blue body with diamonds along the sides appeared on Yuke's field, slowly slithering behind him.
Spectral Deva - Hydrus Level 4, Light, Reptile, ATK: 1400, DEF: 1000
"I love the way you bring that monster out in an attempt to save yourself! Now, really, I like it." Yuri laughed."Battle! Crapula Maxima, make that snake your supper! Venomous Fireball!"
This time, Crapula's belly grew in size tremendously as it inhaled all the air it could. Aiming for Hydrus, Crapula fired its attack, a purple fireball which completely obliterated its prey.
"Dracula Maxima's effect activates! It can inflict piercing damage when battling a DEF position monster!" Yuri shouted in excitement.
Yuke thought fast and back flipped quickly out of the attack's range, avoiding it with little difficulty.
Yuke LP: 500
Yuke brushed off the dust that had gotten in his suit carefully, making sure he didn't miss a spot."I must admit, that last attack got me by surprise. I was not expecting for your monster to have such effect, therefore I didn't prepare anything to counter it."
"Too bad for you, Mr. Perfect." Yuri snickered"I set a card face-down to end my turn. So, ready to call it quits?"
"Hardly." Yuke bluntly replied."My turn, draw. I activate the Spell, Fury of the Deva. According to its effect, we banish our entire hand and our Graveyard so we can draw 6 new cards."
"What could you possibly be plotting?" Yuri cocked his head to the side.
"You are beginning to show me your true power so I must fight you off with my own. I, with the Scale 3 Spectral Deva - Devious Gargola and the Scale 8 Spectral Deva - Harpu, set the Pendulum Scale."
Two pillars of line shined behind Yuke. Flying up in the right one was a gargoyle like creature with 2 black horns, red wings, and orange body while in the left one was a female green creature with green long hair, purple eyes, and a long white dress.
"Pendulum? First time I've seen it in person." Yuri murmured.
"Now I can simultaneously summon monsters from Leve 5 to 7. Swing, Pendulum of Knowledge." From a portal up above, 3 multicolored rays came onto the ground as Yuke finished chanting."Pendulum Summon. Appear, my servants. Level 5, Spectral Deva - Ocunar and Level 6, Spectral - Deva Serene.
A giant eye full of tentacles along with a mermaid-like monster holding a lyre descended from the sky.
Spectral Deva - Ocunar Level 5, Light, Fiend, ATK: 2200, DEF: 1700
Spectral Deva - Serene Level 6, Light, Fairy, ATK: 1900, DEF: 2200
"I activate Gargola's Pendulum Effect. I can target a "Spectral Deva" monster I control and changed its type to the one Serene is, Fairy. And finally, I activate Serene's effect. When there is another Fairy-Type monster on my field, I can immediately Fusion Summon a "Spectral Deva" monster from my Extra Deck using these monsters as materials."
"What?!" Yuri gasped."You can Fusion Summon?!"
"Of course. I can Ritual, Fusion and Pendulum Summon." Yuke remarked as his monsters were absorbed by the fusion vortex."With the delighted instrument of a mermaid and the sharp eye of a fiend, I call forth the creature of equality. Fusion Summon. I call thee, Level 7, Spectrum Deva - Vice Alpha.
A large knight clad in purple and blue armor with white trim and yellow buttons, holding a shield with the head of a lion on it.
Spectrum Deva - Vice Alpha Level 7, Light, Warrior, ATK: 2700, DEF: 2000
"Spectrum? What happened to Spectral?" Yuri wondered.
"Simple. Spectrum is the level above any Spectral monster you have ever seen. It takes in the powers of reality and converts them into a being worthy enough to be called a deity."
"You keep saying these things but in the end, I know you're bluffing. So you can stop doing that already."
"We'll see. Battle Phase. Vice Alpha will attack Crapula Maxima." Yuke announced.
Yuri clicked his tongue."Are you always so obvious? I activate the Trap Card, Homemade Trap! When a monster that was Special Summoned from the deck declares an attack, that monster will be switched to DEF mode position!"
"Useless. Vice Alpha is immune to card effects. The attack resumes." Vice Alpha dashed over to Crapula Maxima and hit his head with its shield. The lion took a bite out of Crapula Maxima as this one let out a shriek of pain before it was destroyed."
Yuri LP: 1000
"How dare you...?!" Yuri sneered in rage.
"Seems like you're losing your cool. I suppose you have never been in this situation before. I set a card face-down and conclude my turn."
"Losing my cool you say? What a tasteless joke. My turn! I draw!" Upon checking his new hand, Yuri chuckled."Thanks to you, I have the hand that will finally finish you up for good. It's been fun, but I'm afraid this is the end for you. I summon Predaplant Ophrys Scorpio in ATK mode!"
A monster resembling the mix of a carnivorous plant and a scorpion appeared on Yuri's field.
Predaplant Ophrys Scorpio Level 3, Dark, Plant, ATK: 1200, DEF: 800
"Ophrys Scorpio's effect activates!" Yuri announced."When it's summoned onto the field, I can send a Predaplant card from my hand to the graveyard and Special Summon a Level 3 or lower Predaplant from my Deck. I send Predaplant Cephalotus Snail and Special Summon Predaplant Darling Cobra from my Deck!"
A new monster which resembled a plant and a snake appeared alongside Scorpio.
Predaplant Darling Cobra Level 3, Dark, Plant, ATK: 1000, DEF: 1500
"And when Darling Cobra is Special Summoned, I can add 1 "Fusion" card from my Deck to my hand! I'll add Polymerization and use it!" Yuri declared as he activated his spell and began chanting.
Darling Cobra and Scorpio were absorbed into a multi colored vortex while Ace's expression hardened, knowing perfectly well what was coming next.
"Two beautiful flowers with a deadly alluring fragrance! Join together and create a new terror from the hell that lies beneath your petals! Fusion Summon! Come forth! Poisonous dragon with hungry fangs, Starve Venom Fusion Dragon!"
Starve Venom Fusion Dragon Level 8, Dark, Dragon, Fusion, ATK: 2800, DEF: 2000
"T-that's..." Ace stammered as he saw Yuri's dragon in all its glory.
"This is it! My dragon is ready to eat its prey!" Yuri gleefully announced."Starve Venom's effect activates! Until the end of this turn, this card will gain ATK equal to the combined ATK of all Special Summoned monsters on my opponent's field!"
Starve Venom Fusion Dragon ATK: 2800+2700= 5500
"At this moment, Vice Alpha's effect activates. When a monster on my opponent's field increases its ATK, this card can gain half of the gained ATK until the End Phase."
Spectrum Deva - Vice Alpha ATK: 2700+1350=4050
"A cute attempt to save yourself but it won't help! Sadly enough, since your monster is unaffected by card effects, Starve Venom's effect won't work on it. However, I can still destroy you by battling! Starve Venom Fusion Dragon, attack Vice Alpha!
"I activate my Trap Card, Losing End. When a monster declares an attack on a "Spectrum Deva", it will gain 1000 ATK until the End Phase." Yuke said.
Spectrum Deva - Vice Alpha ATK: 4050+1000=5050
The mouths on Starve Venom's wings and tail burst open. With a powerful swing, the mouth on the wing grew large enough to swallow Yuke's monster entirely. The force of the attack headed towards Yuke and pushed him away as he tried to maintain his balance.
Yuke LP: 50
"Seems like you survived by the skin of your teeth, eh?" Yuri inquired with a sarcastic tone."Not to worry! Starve Venom will just wait patiently for its next meal. I set 2 cards face-down and end my turn. At this moment, Starve Venom's effect ends and its ATK goes back to normal. That goes for your monster as well."
Starve Venom Fusion Dragon ATK: 2800
Spectrum Deva - Vice Alpha ATK: 2700
"A next meal...?" Yuke's voice came as a hollow whisper."My turn, draw. I activate the Spell Card, Salvaged Pendulum. I can destroy both of my Pendulum Scales to draw 2 extra cards from my Deck. Now, I will bring out my strongest monster forth, Yuri."
"Seems like you're finally getting serious! How exciting!" He said as he jumped up and down, mimicking Seiko.
Ace observed carefully and listened to their conversations. A hand on his shoulder broke him free of the bounds of his thoughts.
"Seems like we'll get to see which dragon is the strongest," Evan spoke.
"No. Yuri is done for." Ace stated.
"How can you be so sure?" Evan turned to his partner, offering him a hand to get up.
"Just watch." He simply replied.
Back to the duel, Yuke had taken a card out of his hand and revealed it."I activate the Ritual Spell, Nova Invocation, offering my Level 8 Spectral Deva - Eclipse in my graveyard as a tribute to Ritual Summon."
A large crater appeared on the ground, letting out blue like smoke from it as Eclipse appeared for a brief moment before exploding into particles and being absorbed by the crater.
"Luminous dragon surrounded by the righteous dark light! With the horns of a devil and the power of a deity, descend from the realm of perfection and extinguish the fools who dare disobey your will! Ritual Summon! Appear, The dark dragon who shines in the light, Harvoc Nova Ritual Dragon!"
A blue dragon with black spikes covering its arms and shoulders while hardened rumpled skin, horns pointing in both directions above its head, colossal dark blue colored wings, a long spiky tail, blades on each side of its elbows, and numerous dark colored gems around its body came out of the crater, letting out a thunderous roar.
Harvoc Nova Ritual Dragon Level 8, Light, Dragon, Ritual, ATK: 2800, DEF: 2000
Starve Venom began roaring with rage as soon as he saw Harvoc Nova, with Nova returning the favor as it roared back.
"Seems like our dragons don't get along. A shame. I was hoping at least they could become friends." Yuri lamented before snickering.
"Harvoc Nova's effect activates." Yuke ignored Yuri's words"When it's Ritual Summoned onto the field, I can negate the effect of one monster on your field."
Harvoc Nova let out spikes from its body which were connected by some sort of ropes and tangled themselves on Starve Venom.
"That's one nasty effect." Yuri frowned.
"I activate the Equip Spell, Super Nova. It increases the ATK of Harvoc Nova by 500 ATK."
Harvoc Nova's horns grew larger in size, the color of them changing to silver.
Harvoc Nova Ritual Dragon ATK: 3300
"Battle. Harnoc Nova Ritual Dragon attacks Starve Venom Fusion Dragon. Forgotten Nova Impact." Harvoc Nova flew at high speed, aiming for Starve Venom with its enlarged horns.
"Not yet! It's too soon to end this killing!" Yuri showed a crazed smile, his pupils becoming slit as a serpent."I activate the Trap Card, Predator's Conflict! By discarding a Predaplant monster from my hand, I can negate your monster's attack!"
Harvoc Nova flew upwards, barely missing Starve Venom and went back to Yuke's side.
"Turn end," Yuke stated, much to Yuri's disbelief.
"That's it...? Oh well!" Yuri shrugged, bending his body backward as he hid a smile."It's my turn, then! I draw! Since Starve Venom Fusion Dragon has its effects negated, I'll just have to go with something else! I activate my Trap Card, Sudden Armageddon! If my opponent controls a monster with higher ATK than mine, your monster loses 300 ATK per monster on the field until the End Phase. Since there's 2, your dragon loses 600 ATK!"
Harvoc Nova Ritual Dragon ATK: 3300-600=2700
"And then! My Spell Card activates! Thorn Fangs of Violet Poison! By discarding my entire hand, I can destroy as many monsters as possible that have lower ATK than Starve Venom and each player that had monsters destroyed by this effect takes damage equal to the combined ATK of the destroyed monsters! Since Starve Venom cannot be destroyed by this effect, only you will take damage!"
"I activate Super Nova's second effect. When Harvoc Nova Ritual Dragon is targetted for destruction while this card is equipped to it, I can destroy this card instead."
"Battle Phase!" Yuri declared immediately."Starve Venom Fusion Dragon attacks Harvoc Nova!"
"It's useless. From the graveyard, I activate Harpu's effect. During Battle Phase, I can Special Summon her from the graveyard and you are forced to attack her instead. However, once she's destroyed, she will be banished instead."
As Harpus appeared on the field, one of Starve Venom's mouth devoured her entirely, leaving Harvoc Nova unscathed.
Yuri grabbed a fistful of his hair in exasperation."Why?! Why won't you just die already?! Someone from the Secondary Union cannot even begin to compare to me! Do you understand me?!"
Yuke remained silent, unfazed at Yuri's sudden outraged. Feeling nothing for him, Yuke's gazed hardened, hurrying Yuri to continue.
From the sidelines, Wendy stood in front of her comrades who were getting back on their feet.
"Yuri...what is wrong with you, you big loser...?" Wendy murmured."Why are you suddenly...?"
Tokomaru placed a hand supporting hand on Wendy's shoulder."Can you blame him? He's probably feeling what most of us were." He looked over his shoulder to see his comrades watching the Duel attentively."Suffocation, fear, anxiety, intense pressure. No one expected someone with that uniform to be this strong."
"Not only that..." Evan joined in the conversation, arms folded."Yuri is not used to being on the losing end. For him, this situation is unbearable. He's starting to lose it."
"I told you so." Ace said, earning their attention."Without a doubt, Seiko was right about Yuke. He's not just some guy who wears a lowlife uniform. Disregarding his calm and collected attitude...he's a monster."
"End your turn, Yuri." Yuke said in an commanding manner."There's nothing more you can do."
"You're wrong and I'll prove it to you! You only have 50 LP left! I end my turn!"
"Don't forget; your trap's ability terminates and Harvoc Nova gains back its ATK." Yuke reminded him.
Harvoc Nova Ritual Dragon ATK: 2800
"It's my turn, I draw. I activate the Spell Card, Spectral Deva Retribution. I can only activate this card when I don't have any other cards in my hand other than this card. It allows to draw 2 extra cards from my Deck. I place a card face-down and end my turn."
Yuri grasped for as much air as he could in order to relax. After making sure his breathing was under control again, his expression went back to his normal grin."Guess it's just a matter of time, eh? I draw! I set a card. Over."
"My turn. Another set card face-down. Over" Yuke declared.
"My turn! Enough of these games already! Battle! Starve Venom Fusion Dragon attacks Harvoc Nova Ritual Dragon!"
Yuke frowned, confused at why Yuri would make such a desperate move."Harvoc Nova will counterattack."
Both dragons roared fiercely as they began flying towards each other.
"Both dragons will be destroyed in the battle!" Both declared as they raised their arms."Trap Card, open! Supreme King's Intervention! When a Level 5 or Higher monster would be destroyed by battle or card effect, it is not destroyed!"
Both dragons headbutted against each other, locking each other's hands as a tremendous shockwave pushed both duelists back.
"I-it can't be...you had the same trap as me? You predicted this would happen!" Yuri stammered as both dragons went back to their owners' side.
"End your turn, Yuri. I am quite done wasting my time with you. You had your opportunity to make this more interesting but failed miserably. You are finished."
"Shut up!" Yuri hissed in clear rage."You think this is over?! Next turn, I will destroy you!"
"Stop lying to yourself. It's over. If you do not believe my claim, then allow me to prove it to you..."
"You're bluffing..." Yuri grimaced."But do it! Be my guest! I set a card face-down. Turn end!"
"My turn. I draw." Yuke's eyes twitched slightly as he drew his card.'Yuri is definitely up to something. For someone as skilled as he is to make such rash move. Then that means...'
"Yuke is about to use his dragon." Ace stated, a grim look appearing on his face.
"I activate the Spell Card, Deva Reincarnation. Through its effect, every banished monster returns to our graveyards. Next, I activate Harvoc Nova's effect." Yuke declared, earning a gasp from Yuri."I can target a Level 5 or Higher monster in your field and increase the ATK of my dragon by the same amount your monster has until the End Phase.
"What?! It had an effect like that?!" Yuri cried out, his eyes widening.
Harvoc Nova Ritual Dragon ATK: 2800+2800: 5600
"What?!" All the Unifiers yelled in unison.
"No! No! You...you can't be doing this! You're just a low-class duelist!" Yuri snapped.
"Battle. Harvoc Nova Ritual Dragon attacks Starve Venom Fusion Dragon. Light of Extinction!"
Harvoc Nova howled as it stretched both its legs and arms. The dark gems began to shine in a light-blue as a whitish aura surrounded it. With a loud roar, Harvoc Nova fired the energy from the gems, its aura powering them up as they went towards Starve Venom.
"I'm...gonna lose? Ag-against someone from the Secondary Union...you're kidding me..." Yuri breathed. Starve Venom shrieked in pain as the beam of light disintegrated its body and went straight for Yuri. After the collision, a huge explosion went off and was loud enough that Seiko, who was observing the duel from afar, heard.
"What a good boy you are, Yuke." She chuckled in satisfaction.
Yuri LP: 0
Winner: Yuke
"Seems like the loser dog ended up losing just as you said, Ace," Wendy said with a monotone tone.
Ace didn't respond and continued looking at both boys.
"I...I lost..." Yuri's voice broke steadily, tears of frustration streaming down his face."I lost against someone who is lower in rank than I am...no...NO!" Bringing his Duel Disk forward, Yuri began accessing the Teleportation App but felt a hand grabbing him with an iron grip.
"You lost, Yuri." Yuke's words went straight to Yuri's soul.
"H-how did y-" His words were muffled into silence as Yuke grabbed him by the throat with one hand and rose him up.
"Before we began dueling, you were so sure of your skills and thought it would be an easy win, judging me for the clothes I am wearing. Remember this day. The day you lost against someone who you outclassed by rank by far. Your pride, your ego, your very being shall be shattered in memory of this battle."
With a quick motion, Yuke tossed Yuri away like a rag doll, leaving him defeated on the ground.
"Gather," Yuke said. Within a few seconds, the Unifiers of Chaos were surrounding him.
Ace stepped forward the bunch and looked Yuke straight in his crimson eyes with his own."Yuke, I respect you and your authority. Seiko was right on leaving you in charge of our group. I hope we can be of service." He stuck out his hand for a hand shake.
Yuke returned the favor and glanced at everyone around him."Today is the day where we start moving seriously. As you all are aware, the Lancers, a group lead by the Professor's son, Akaba Reiji, are on their way to Academia in order to infiltrate and destroy it."
"That's right." Tariko chimed in."Naho-san and I recently went to the Synchro Dimension and saw a guy that looks like you with a bunch of other weirdos."
Naho nodded in agreement."Correct. I managed to pinpoint Serena and Yuzu. Currently, they are being held captive in a prison."
"The Facility?" Junpei raised a brow as he exchanged looks with Tatsuyo and Tokomaru.
"Yeah, but they were in the middle of a prison break, so." Tariko shrugged.
"They're quite a handful, aren't they?" Tatsuyo chuckled.
Yuke turned around and looked over his shoulder."Synchro, go to XYZ and establish a base. Make sure to fortify it as much as possible. Fusion, you will remain here until further notice. XYZ and Wendy, come with me. We will go to the Synchro Dimension personally."
"If I may interrupt you for a minute, Yuke-kun." Tokomaru interjected a hand raised up."I'd like to accompany you guys when the time is right."
"Why is that?" Yuke queried.
Tokomaru coughed awkwardly, his usual laid back smile changing to a serious expression."I have some business to finish with someone I know."
"I want to go as well, Yuke-san." Evan rubbed his head sheepishly."I have a certain someone to deal with."
"He means that Yugo kid." Ace retorted, eyeing his partner dangerously.
"You will go when the time is right. Is there anyone who wants special permission for this mission?" Yuke inquired.
"Me? Going back to that dump?" Junpei spat.
Tatsuyo just shrugged."I'll go to XYZ with Junpei I guess."
"I'll go with them as well. I'll set up a meeting with the Commander in Chief so we can discuss some terms." Ace stated.
"That settles then. The ones who requested special permission wait until you are called. The rest of you, XYZians, come with me." Yuke started walking away, followed by Naho, Tariko, Makoto and Wendy."Our objective is simple: Capture Serena and Hiragi Yuzu."

Hope you guys enjoyed Yuke's deck. It's basically a Light-Type Deck that facilitates the usage of the Extra Deck and keep the hand full in order to Ritual Summon when needed. The trap cards vary from changing a monster's attribute and locking their mobility. Spell Cards are either draw power or other stuff. Ritual Spells can be recycled through various ways such as banishing a Spectral Deva monster. I made Yuri look like a puss puss at the end of the duel because it was previously stated that he liked bullying people from the Secondary Union, like Hiraki, so I thought that his downfall would be better if it was at the hands of someone from the Secondary Union, although that'd be explained later on. If you can have suggestions for new cards make sure to either pm me or just write it as a review. With I'll see you guys later, take care.
