The duel that would decide everything has begun, but it's not looking good for Ichigo. He had all his life points, but only had Underworld Guardian to protect him at 1300def points. Aizen had 8000LP and had three powerful monsters. The fusion, Transcendent Being Hades with 3500atk points. The synchro, Transcendent Being Poseidon with 3000atk points. The xyz, Transcendent Being Zeus at 4000atk points.
"I can't believe he was able to pull off three different forms of summoning. He was even able to do it in one turn." Ichigo said.
"That's right." Aizen said. "Everything fell into place. You stand face with three beings that represent three gods of the Olympians from Greek mythology who also happen to be brothers. You don't have a chance of defeating all three. I'm disappointed. I thought you would have put more of a fight."
"It's not over." Ichigo said.
"I say it is." Aizen said. "I activate Transcendent Being Hades special ability. He's able to remove all your monsters and send them to the grave." Black flames covered Ichigo's field and his guardian was destroyed. "Hades other ability puts one monster from my graveyard back in my deck for each destroyed monster. I think I'll chose my Transcendent Prometheus." His monster came back and he put it in his deck. "Transcendent Being Zeus' ability also activates. When a card on your field is destroyed, you lose half of your life points if I use one overlay unit."
"Half?!" Ichigo said. Zeus had an overlay unit enter his scepter and lightning strike down on Ichigo and the power was too much for him as his life points dropped to 2000.
"That looked like it hurt." Aizen said. "Again, I say I was hoping you would be more of a challenge. Transcendent Being Poseidon, end this duel here." Poseidon reached out for Ichigo with his trident.
"I guess the now is the perfect time to play this." Ichigo said. "I activate the spell card, Crossing of Boundaries. Since you destroyed Underworld Guardian by a card affect, I'm able to use this spell. This spell will stop your direct attacks." A blast of wind kept Poseidon back.
"That card would have saved you if it weren't for the fact that I had Zeus." Aizen said.
"What do you mean?" Ichigo said.
"It's simple." Aizen said. "Hades is immune to the effects of monsters. Poseidon is immune to the effects of traps. However, Zeus is immune to spells, traps, and monsters."
"Zeus can still attack?!" Ichigo said.
"Yes, but I don't think I will attack with him." Aizen said.
"Why not?" Ichigo said.
"I would much rather see how far you've come." Aizen said. "I want to see your strength and have you attack me. That's from scientific point of view. From a duelist point of view, I have a quick-play spell myself. I'm activating Transcendent Insertion. If I have a failed attack, this spell will end the battle. It also means trouble for you. If the next card you draw is not the same as the last card you activated, you have to skip your turn."
'That means, if I don't draw a spell, I'm done for.' Ichigo thought.
"Now, I activate Poseidon's ability." Aizen said.
"When is his turn going to end?" Ichigo complained.
"All Poseidon does is add all the spell and trap cards in my deck to my hand. That means I regain my entire hand." Aizen said as all his spells came back.
"This is not good. He set everything so that Ichigo can't fight back." Unohana said.
"This is where I end my turn." Aizen said.
"Finally." Ichigo said as he got ready to draw. 'I don't have anything to stop those gods again. If I don't draw a spell, this is it. I'm not going to let that bother me. I have to keep believing that I can win. Even if I draw a spell, my only chance to survive his next turn is to get rid of Zeus.' He thought.
"Are you ready to admit your demise?" Aizen said.
"Never to the like of you." Ichigo said and he drew his card that happened to be a spell. "Perfect. I activate the spell, Reverse Card. This spell puts all the cards in our hands back into our decks. Then we get to the same amount of cards we put back in our decks. The good news is that I can choose any of the cards as long as they aren't the same ones I put back in. The bad news is that so can you."
"I guess I should thank you for that, but it's futile. You don't have anything in your deck that can help you." Aizen said. They put the cards back and drew new cards.
"Don't be so sure about that." Ichigo said. "I summon my Ghost Sword Warrior." A ghost in armor came up and had 1300atk points. "Next, I'm activating Twice the Element to summon another dark attribute monster. I summon Twin Sword Slayer." His swordsman came on the field and had 1600atk points. "Now, I unite my dark attribute, level three Ghost Sword Warrior with level four Twin Sword Slayer." Both of them became dark energy and started to merge together. "I unite summon Chaos Machete." A warrior covered in white armor that carried a large sword shaped like a machete and a regular sized machete with both of them white came on the field and had 2800atk points. "I'm not stopping there. I'm activating Release Power. This spell allows me to use a trap from my hand and the trap I choose is Non-Zero. Non-Zero makes my monster have same amount of attack points as the strongest monster on your field."
"That can't be!" Aizen said.
"It is. That means my Chaos Machete gains all of Zeus' attack points." Ichigo said and his monster's attack points rose to 4000. "Chaos Machete, take down Transcendent Being Zeus. Go, Chaos Decapitation. Since Zeus isn't a unite monster, he won't survive." Chaos Machete flew up to Zeus and sliced him down as he was destroyed. "I'm also going to use his special ability. One unite unit would allow him to attack a second time, but I'll use both to take out both of your monsters." Both units entered his weapons and he attacked Poseidon and Hades with Aizen's life points dropping to 6500.
"Interesting. He found a way to outplay the gods in just one turn." Aizen said. He noticed that Chaos Machete turned white to black. "Why did your monster change color?"
"That's simple. He's not called Chaos Machete for nothing. If you attack him when he has no unite units, your monster will end up being destroyed whether it's a unite monster or not." Ichigo said. "I'll end my turn. Since it's the end of my turn, Chaos Machete's points return to normal." Machete's points dropped back down to 2800atk points.
"Then it's my turn." Aizen said as he drew his next card. "I really should thank you for letting me choose my cards from that spell you played earlier. I'll summon Transcendent Chimera." A lion with a goat and dragon head and snake tail came on the field and had 1600atk points. "Next, his special ability allows me to summon a second 'Transcendent' beast monster from my hand. I summon Transcendent Minotaur." A man with a bull head came on the field and had 1900atk points. "I'm also going to play the spell known as Exceed Evolution. This changes my monsters to a different attribute and adds one level. I'll turn both of my monsters to the dark attribute and make them a level five."
"What's it going to be this time? Is he going to unite summon or xyz summon?" Ichigo said.
"I'll humbly show you right now. I unite my level five, dark attribute Minotaur and Chimera." The two of them became dark energy and joined together. "I unite summon Kyoka Suigetsu." A white being descend to the ground with the entire body covered in a white substance with four sections around the waist and had butterfly like wings and had 3000atk points. "Kyoka Suigetsu, destroy Chaos Machete."
"Why is he attacking? I told him of Chaos Machete's ability." Ichigo said.
"Reality Disrupter." Aizen said. Kyoka Suigetsu held up its arm and its hand unleashed a bright flash. Chaos Machete was trapped in crystal like orb and caused an explosion and it looked like Kyoka Suigetsu exploded as well. Ichigo's points dropped down to 1800.
"I've got you. Chaos Machete's ability destroyed Kyoka Suigetsu." Ichigo said.
"Don't be so sure." Aizen said and his monster was still standing.
"What? I don't understand. How can it still be standing?" Ichigo said.
'This is not good. Kyoka Suigetsu is Aizen's best monster, but all of its secrets have not been revealed.' Unohana thought. What secrets is this card holding?
