Ulrich362: Leo Akaba managed to duel Riley and Cassie to a DRAW but now Obelisk Force is about to confront the Lancers and their allies.

bopdog111: And now Cass is unconscious while she gets help from Ray.

Ulrich362: True, hopefully whatever Ray has in mind can help stop Zarc.

bopdog111: And restore Yuya, Yuri, Yugo, and Yuto back.

Ulrich362: Hopefully, enjoy the chapter.

Disclaimer: We don't own Yu-Gi-Oh! ARC-V but we own the OCs!


While Cassie was having a conversation with Ray the Obelisk Force had arrived only to see the Lancers and their gathered allies before immediately a large battle started in the room with Mokuba and Riley running to keep Cassie safe.

"Stay with her you two." Yusho told the kids.

"We will." Mokuba answered as Riley held Cassie close with tears.

Yusho moved to join them despite his injured leg while Leo Akaba weakened from the duel watched with Viper before then telling Viper, "Thelonious Viper."

"Professor?" he asked.

"I thank you for always being one of the best successful officers in my army... Now prove to me how powerful you are by taking the girls." Leo Akaba ordered him.

"Consider it done." Viper nodded moving towards the four bracelet girls.

They were busy with Obelisk Force while helping the Lancers against them unaware of Viper approaching them.

"Don't even think about it."

Hearing that the four looked over seeing him.

"You're not laying one finger on any of them." Joey told him.

"And what are you gonna do?" Viper asked him with a smirk.

"Does this answer your question?" Joey asked activating his Duel Disk. "You're not touching them end of story."

"Fine if you think you can handle the venom." Viper smirked at him.

"I just might surprise you." Joey mentioned turning to the four girls. "Stay behind me, leave this to Joey Wheeler."

"Are you sure?" Zuzu asked him.

"Yeah, I'm sure." Joey nodded.

Viper readies a military Duel Disk with a smirk.

"DUEL!" Joey and Viper called together.

Venom Serpent shot some venom as it formed into a purple snake attaching on Hundred Dragon's neck, and bit it's shoulder.

Hundred Dragon: (ATK: 1800 - 500 = 1300)

"So that's your game, weakening my monsters to make them easier to destroy." Joey frowned.

"That won't be enough to help you." Viper sets two cards, "Not when my Venom Swamp's other effect activates."

"Other effect?" Joey questioned.

The Swamp materialized a second snake wrapping around Hundred Dragon's left leg biting it.

"Ah man!" Joey frowned seeing that.

Hundred Dragon: (ATK: 1300 - 500 = 800/Venom Counter: 2)

Viper only smirked, "I end my turn."

"Perfect card?" Viper questioned hearing that.

Viper's eyes widen his his set cards, and Venom Swap returned to his hand. With that the Venom Counters' effect had vanished from Hundred Dragon.

Viper growled at this.

"Hundred Dragon's ability gives him 100 attack points for every card I control." Joey grinned. "Plus, whenever a card or effect is activated Lord of the Red can destroy a monster or a spell or trap card on the field and I think I'll pick your Serpent."

Viper's eyes widen as Joey's Ritual Monster fired a flame blast incinerating Venom Serpent.

Hundred Dragon: (ATK: 1800 + (100 * 2) = 2000)

"Hundred Dragon attack his life points directly!" Joey called.

The Dragon charged tackling Viper. (Viper: 2000/Hand: 5)

"Now Lord of the Red attack." Joey grinned.

Lord of the Red moved in to attack only for something to bang against the large door making everyone stop.

"What was that?" Alito questioned as they all turned to the door.

Leo Akaba widen his eyes, "...He's here."

"Professor?" questioned one of the Obelisk Force that hadn't yet been defeated. "What are you talking about, who's here? More of these Lancers?"

The door was banged again as they turned. After several more bangs the door was banged opened as something walked in. The shadows faded to reveal a smirking Zarc just came in. Riley's eyes widened. "Yuya?"

"There is no Yuya, he is gone forever, only I. Zarc!" Zarc declared at this.

Viper growled cancelling his duel with Joey to confront him.

Duel Ended with No Result


"Who the hell are you? You got a lot of nerve to come in like this." Viper ordered him, "If I were you, I'd leave now."

Zarc only find this amusing starting to laugh. "You got a lot of nerve to threaten the Supreme Ruler of the Galaxy..."

"He looks just like Yuya... but there are some differences." Yusho frowned.

"Viper get away, you don't have a chance against him!" Leo Akaba warned him.

"Professor, don't worry we can handle someone like him." Viper stubbornly refused, "A good soldier never leaves a man behind."

"Oh yeah? You, and what army?" Zarc asked hearing that.

"How bout THIS army?" Viper asked snapping his fingers as the remaining Obelisk Force that the Lancers haven't defeated surrounded Zarc as he looked around, "You be wise to surrender. We have you outnumbered."

"Tch." Zarc clicked his tongue in amusement, "Fool... No matter how many you gather, your nothing but insects."

"Keep talking freak, you'll be a card soon enough." one of the Obelisk Force members smirked.

"Me? A card? How funny..." Zarc started laughing manically.

"You think we're joking?" another Obelisk Force member questioned.

Zarc stopped laughing before smirking, "You really think a couple of ants can defeat a dinosaur? Cause that is exactly the major difference between all of us. Prove me wrong?" He readied his Duel Disk, "I'll give you foolish mortals a chance to prove it." From that speaking he's challenging all of Obelisk Force, and Viper at once.

"This won't take any time at all." Viper stated. "You won't even have one turn."

"...They can't do it can they?" Zuzu asked the Lancers from seeing this.

"I doubt it." Shark frowned. "We need a plan and fast."

They watched as Obelisk Force, and Viper both fought Zarc but there efforts did nothing on as he summoned powerful cards, and defeated Obelisk Force, and Viper in one turn as they laid unconscious.

"So you took out a few weaklings, am I supposed to be impressed?" Kaiba questioned.

Zarc only tched, "Really? Is that the best, they can do? How lame, that Cyber Dragon User with the Arcana Force Deck, and those two others performed better."

"Cyber... you beat Zane?" Celina questioned in shock. "No way... that isn't possible."

Zarc turned to her, "Oh that his name? He was strong but-" He froze seeing her face, "Oh so your the next of Ray's incarnations."

She flinched slightly as he saw Lulu, Rin, and Zuzu were there with her.

"Ah all four of them are here. So now Ray isn't far behind if I am here..." Zarc trailed off before noticing Leo Akaba, "Well well, Leo Akaba... I haven't seen you in so long."

"Not long enough." Leo Akaba frowned seeing him.

"I must say you made quite an empire here... but sadly this means you have become a rival to take my place as the Supreme Ruler... or perhaps your trying to get your daughter back." Zarc said to him.

"Are you two going to keep talking all day?" Kaiba interrupted.

Hearing that Zarc turned over seeing Kaiba.

"If you're done with those weaklings why don't we step outside so I can show you how a real duelist battles." Kaiba smirked.

"And you are...?" Zarc trailed for the name of his next challenger.

"Seto Kaiba, the president of Kaiba Corporation." Kaiba answered.

"A big shot Duelist eh? Alright, you seem like someone that can give me a challenge." Zarc shrugged with a smirk, "Alright let's take it outside."

Kaiba smirked only to frown. "Mokuba, stay with Riley and Cassandra. This won't take long."

"Take him down Seto." Mokuba grinned to his brother.

"I plan on it." Kaiba nodded as everyone but Yusho, Mokuba, Riley, and Cassie left the room.

Yusho stared off before looking towards the three kids while Riley being close to Cassie ever since the DRAW.

"Oh Cassie…" Yusho whispered softly.

Mokuba looked over to him before saying, "She never stop thinking of you, or Yuya, sir."

"I wish I could have been there for them." Yusho admitted sadly.

"I'm sure your reason why you left was something you needed to do." Mokuba assured him.

Yusho just closed his eyes in thought.


Meanwhile outside...

Everyone from the room walked out of the building outside where Zarc turned around to face Kaiba with a smirk.

Kaiba activated his Duel Disk. "I hope you're prepared to face a real duelist."

"You insult me by thinking I'm a amateur... I'll teach you some." Zarc activated his own Duel Disk smirking ready to begin.

"DUEL!" Kaiba and Zarc called together.

The Magician raise it's staff as it glowed which Zarc takes a card showing a Field Spell placing it in his hand before adding, "Of course that's only the first effect at this time. I have a second one here."

"Wait, Ritual Dragon?" Leo Akaba questioned as his eyes widened. "No... don't tell me, not just Pendulum..."

"By all means, you claimed to be the ultimate duelist so this is your chance to prove it." Kaiba smirked.

"Very well when Darkwurm is summoned, I take a Supreme King Gate to my hand." Zarc takes a second card showing it before adding it, "Then Supreme King Dragon Dragon's Pendulum effect! When a Supreme King is on my field that's Pendulum Summoned, it's summoned from the Pendulum Zone!"

Dragan flew out of the Pendulum Zone beside Blue Memory Magician.

"Already Zarc summoned two of his strongest dragons..." Leo Akaba trailed off seeing this while holding his shoulder.

Kaiba drew his card. "I'll start by showing you my Blue-Eyes White Dragon in my hand. This allows me to summon Blue-Eyes Alternative White Dragon in attack position."

Zarc looked up seeing it blinking.

"Obelisk, attack him directly with Fist of Fate!" Kaiba called.

Obelisk charged a fist at this before moving to punch Zarc only for something to intercept it stopping it from hitting.

"What?" Kaiba questioned.

"Supreme Kuriboh is the answer." Zarc answered as a green kuriboh was there had stopped the attack as Obelisk pulled it's fist back, "Should you attack me directly while my field is empty, I can banish this card from my Deck to end the battle."

Kaiba frowned. "I set two cards and end my move."

"As long as this card is on the field, you cannot use your Spell cards that target on my Spellcasters." Zarc smirked towards Kaiba.

"Is that supposed to be impressive?" Kaiba questioned.

"Maybe not but this might." Zarc at that takes another card in his hand, "I sacrifice Supreme King Magician, and Dragan!"

The two vanished as he raise a card up, "That way I can Special Summon this card!" He raised the card at this as it glowed.

Kaiba looked on seeing that.

"What's he doing now?" Joey questioned turning to Leo Akaba.

Leo Akaba only stared to watch as Zarc called, "Come! Supreme King Dragon Odd-Eyes!"

What rose on the field was Odd-Eyes in a new form roaring.

"Another dragon." Shark frowned.

"What do you plan on doing with that? It's not bad but against my Egyptian God Card it won't help you." Kaiba smirked.

"Well the answer comes from part 1. Battle for Supremacy makes it a Spellcaster, and gain 300 points."

Odd-Eyes: (ATK: 2500 + 300 = 2800)

Zuzu meanwhile started crying from seeing the corrupted version of her boyfriend's dragon. Lulu frowned seeing that before gently hugging her counterpart.

"And now Supreme King Dragon Odd-Eyes attack Obelisk the Tormentor! Now!"

His Dragon without question charged in at the Egyptian God charging a pink chaotic blast to attack Obelisk.

"Have you lost your mind?" Kaiba questioned. "Your monster only has 2800 attack points."

"Not for long. Purple Poison Magician's effect activates! Before damage calculation, it can destroy itself to give a Spellcaster on the field 1200 points during battle!"

Purple Poison shattered as Odd-Eyes' attack grew stronger.

Odd-Eyes: (ATK: 2800 + 1200 = 4000)

"He's gonna take Obelisk out by sacrificing his monster!" Yugi realized seeing this.

Kaiba's eyes widened in shock as Obelisk punched the blast creating a massive explosion destroying both monsters. "No way!"

Zarc smirked seeing the Egyptian God destroyed while everyone else braced from the shockwave of the blast before they looked seeing both Obelisk, and Odd-Eyes are gone in gold particles around them.

"No way, he destroyed a God Card that easily!" Joey cried in shock.

"As I said before I am the Supreme Ruler of the Galaxy, in fact I don't see myself as a God, no I am the Supreme Ruler of Everything... Even GODS bow down to Supreme Rulers!" Zarc proclaimed laughing loud before then added, "As a Magician on my field left the field Star Pendulumgraph takes a Magician Pendulum monster to my hand from the Deck."

He adds a card at that going to his Main Phase 2, "Now Darkwurm's effect activates! With no monsters on the field, it revives from the graveyard!"

Darkwurm popped up in Defense growling.

Supreme King Dragon Darkwurm: (Defense Position/ATK: 1800 + 300 = 2100/Type: Spellcaster/Dragon)

"With it's summoning, I take Supreme King Gate Zero to my hand!" Zarc called adding another card.

Kaiba frowned.

"Now I set Scale 0 Supreme King Gate Zero!" Zarc placed the card as Zero rose up, "Lastly, I set this monster to end my turn."

Zarc's Hand: 0/Field: Battle for Supremacy (Field Zone), Supreme King Gate Zero (Pendulum), Supreme King Gate Infinity (Pendulum), Supreme King Dragon Darkwurm (Defense Position/ATK: 2100/Type: Spellcaster/Dragon), One Set Monster

Kaiba 2nd Turn:

"Kaiba be careful! If he can take Obelisk out like that, he's more powerful then we thought!" Yugi quickly warned his rival.

"Obviously." Kaiba frowned drawing his card. "I set one card and that's it."

Kaiba's Hand: 1/Field: Three Set Cards


Kaiba: 4000

Hand: 1

Field: Three Set Cards

Zarc: 4000

Hand: 0

Field: Battle for Supremacy (Field Zone), Supreme King Gate Zero (Pendulum), Supreme King Gate Infinity (Pendulum), Supreme King Dragon Darkwurm (Defense Position/ATK: 2100/Type: Spellcaster/Dragon), One Set Monster


Zarc 3rd Turn:

"My turn draw!" Zarc drew looking at his drawn card seeing it before then saying, "And I use Gate Zero's Pendulum Ability! By destroying both it, and Gate Infinity in my Pendulum Zones, I can take 1 card from my Deck to my hand! A Fusion Spell to be exact!" He raised his arm as both Gate Zero, and Gate Infinity shattered together.

"Hold it, I'll use Mystical Space Typhoon to destroy my own facedown card." Kaiba countered.


Mystical Space Typhoon

Quick-Play Spell Card

Target 1 Spell/Trap on the field; destroy that target.


A cyclone burst forth destroying Kaiba's face-down from there.

"Now, you were saying?" Kaiba asked.

While Zarc wasn't sure why Kaiba destroyed his set card he continued on, "I add Supreme Fusion to my hand." He shows the card adding it. He then added, "Now I reveal my set monster. Double Iris Magician show yourself!"

What rose up was Double Iris Magician readying itself.

Kaiba nodded calmly.

"Then I use Supreme Fusion!" Zarc revealed the card.

If you control 2 " Supreme King Gate" Pendulum Monsters with different names in your Pendulum Zones: You can also banish monsters from your GY as Fusion Materials.

You can only activate 1 "Supreme Fusion" per turn.


"And with it, I fuse together Double Iris Magician with Darkwurm!"

The two flew up fusing together.

"I Fusion Summon! Rise, Starving Venom Fusion Dragon!"

What rose up readying was Starving Venom roaring loud.

Starving Venom Fusion Dragon

Kaiba frowned seeing that. With Battle for Supremacy, Starving Venom glowed gaining power.

Starving Venom: (ATK: 2800 + 300 = 3100/Type: Spellcaster/Dragon)

"Now Starving Venom attack him! Megaflare Attack!" Starving Venom charged a blast attacking Kaiba.

Kaiba braced himself as the blast hit.

(Kaiba: 0900/Hand: 1)

Zarc only smirked, "Oh come on, don't tell me THAT'S all you got?"

Kaiba frowned. "Are you done?"

"Go ahead." Zarc places a card face-down.

Zarc's Hand: 0/Field: Battle for Supremacy (Field Zone), Starving Venom Fusion Dragon (Attack Position/ATK: 3100/Type: Spellcaster/Dragon), One Set Card

Kaiba 3rd Turn:

Kaiba drew his card. "I activate Monster Reborn to bring Obelisk back from my graveyard."


Monster Reborn

Normal Spell Card

Target 1 monster in either GY; Special Summon it.


His Egyptian God rose up roaring.

Obelisk the Tormentor: (Attack Position)

"Unfortunately Obelisk will be destroyed during the end of my turn but I can attack your dragon." Kaiba told Zarc.

Obelisk charged a fist punching Starving Venom destroying, and finally damaging Zarc. (Zarc: 3100/Hand: 0) But Zarc doesn't look impressed, "Pathetic is this really the best the great Seto Kaiba, and his Blue-Eyes can do?"

Kaiba only stared at Zarc ending his turn with a set card as Obelisk vanished.

Kaiba's Hand: 1/Field: Two Set Cards


Kaiba: 0900

Hand: 1

Field: Two Set Cards

Zarc: 3100

Hand: 1

Field: Battle for Supremacy (Field Zone), One Set Card


Zarc 4th Turn:

"My turn draw." Zarc drew looking seeing his drawn card, "I use the Supreme Gates!"


(face-up)

If this card is activated: Place 2 "Supreme King Gate" Pendulum Monsters with different names from your hand, Deck, and/or face-up Extra Deck to your Pendulum Zones. You can Pendulum Summon Monster(s) ignoring the effect of "Supreme King Gate Infinity" in your Pendulum Zone. You can only control 1 "The Supreme Gates". While this card is on your field, cards in your Pendulum Zones are unaffected by your opponents cards and effects.


(Zarc: 2100/Hand: 0)

"When it activates, both Gate Zero, and Gate Infinity comes back to the Pendulum Zone!"

With that both Gate Zero, and Gate Infinity rose up again.

Gate Zero: (Pendulum)

Gate Infinity: (Pendulum)

Kaiba frowned seeing those monsters.

"And now Pendulum Summon!" He raised his arm as two monster shot out.

"First Double-Iris Magician!"

Double Iris rose in Defense.

Double Iris Magician: (Defense Position)

"And next the card that shall end this duel." Zarc smirked raising a card as they see it's the same sorcerer from his Star Pendulumgraph spell.

Kaiba watched calmly.

"Read time, read the stars, omniscent magician manipulating spacetime! Descend here and now and give power to me! Come forth, Astrograph Sorcerer!"

What lowered was Astrograph Sorcerer opening his eyes readying his staff.


(Attack Position)

Astrograph Sorcerer

DARK

Level 7

Pendulum Scale: 1

Spellcaster/Effect/Pendulum

ATK: 2500

DEF: 2000

Monster Effect: If a card(s) you control is destroyed by battle or card effect: You can Special Summon this card from your hand, then you can choose 1 monster in the Graveyard, Extra Deck, or that is banished, and that was destroyed this turn, and add 1 monster with the same name from your Deck to your hand. You can banish this card you control, plus 5 monsters from your hand, field, and/or Graveyard (1 each with "Pendulum Dragon", "Xyz Dragon", "Synchro Dragon", "Ritual Dragon" and "Fusion Dragon" in their names); Special Summon 1 "Supreme King Z-ARC" from your Extra Deck. (This is treated as a Fusion Summon.)


Astrograph Sorcerer: (ATK: 2500 + 300 = 2800/Type: Dragon/Spellcaster)

Kaiba frowned seeing the monster.

"And now I use Astrograph Sorcerer's ability! By banishing 1 monster who's names are labeled as Ritual Dragon, Fusion Dragon, Synchro Dragon, Xyz Dragon, and Pendulum Dragon from my hand, field, or graveyard, I can then summon the ultimate ruler! Astrograph Sorcerer reshape us into a single unstoppable force!"

Astrograph Sorcerer glowed meditating before vanishing.

"Channel the energies of Blue Memory Magician, Starving Venom Fusion Dragon, Clear Wing Synchro Dragon, Dark Rebellion Xyz Dragon, and Double Iris Magician! Let the reunion begin!"

At that a huge dark smoke cloud appeared above as the four monsters from the graveyard along with Double Iris on his field rose up with them all flying into the dark smoke cloud.

"What now?" Joey asked nervously.

"It's coming... the monster that destroyed the Original Dimension..." Leo Akaba stepped back seeing this with a grunt.

"Controlling the Five Heavenly Dragon, the ultimate Dragon who reigns in the sixth dimension! Right now it becomes one with me! Integration Summon! Come forth, Supreme King Z-ARC!"

The smoke grew larger as they see something in it roaring loud as a dark purple, and green silhouette of a giant dragon with wings behind Zarc that's probably larger then Obelisk.


(Attack Position)

Supreme King Z-ARC

(Unknown Stats)


"That won't help you, I play my set spell The Breaking Ruin God!" Kaiba called.


The Breaking Ruin God

Quick-Play Spell Card

The activation of this card, or its effects, cannot be negated, nor can its effects be negated. Special Summon 1 "Obelisk the Tormentor" from your hand or GY, and if you do, it is unaffected by your opponent's card effects this turn. If you Tribute 2 or more monsters you control at the same time to activate your card or effect, while you control "Obelisk the Tormentor": You can banish this card from your GY; banish all monsters in your opponent's GY, and if you do, inflict 500 damage to your opponent for each. You can only use each effect of "The Breaking Ruin God" once per turn.


"This brings back Obelisk the Tormentor once again and makes him unaffected by all of your cards."

Obelisk appeared again roaring at the dragon.

Obelisk the Tormentor: (Attack Position/Unaffected by Zarc's effects)

"Then, I activate Fist of Fate!"


Fist of Fate

Quick-Play Spell Card

This card's activation and effect cannot be negated. If you control a monster whose original name is "Obelisk the Tormentor": Negate the effects of 1 Effect Monster your opponent controls, and if you do, destroy it, and if you do that, for the rest of this turn, the effects of that monster are negated, as well as the activated effects and effects on the field of monsters with the same original name, then, if you activated this card during your Main Phase, you can apply this effect.
● Destroy all Spells and Traps your opponent controls.
You can only activate 1 "Fist of Fate" per turn.


"This not only negates Supreme King Z-ARC's special abilities and destroys him, since it's the Main Phase all your spell and trap cards are also destroyed."

"Worthless..." Zarc smirked at this before as Obelisk went to punch but the dragon didn't move as it looked like a barrier was formed preventing Fist of Fate from affecting the giant dragon.

"Impossible!" Kaiba cried in shock. "Your cards can't affect Obelisk and Fist of Fate can't be negated!"

"Fool, it's the result of a card." They looked seeing Zarc activated his face-down.


Supreme Judgement

Normal Trap Card

If you control 1 "Battle for Supremacy" in the Field Zone: All monsters you control are unaffected to your opponent's card effects this turn, also for the rest of this turn, all damage your opponent takes is halved. During your Standby Phase, if this card is in your GY: You can banish this card from your GY; Special Summon 1 "Supreme King Dragon" monster from your GY in Attack Position. You can only activate 1 "Supreme Judgement" per turn.


Supreme King Z-ARC: (Unaffected to opponent's card effects)

Kaiba's eyes widened in shock.

"Now Battle for Supremacy's effect." Zarc raised his arm as his dragon glowed.

Supreme King Z-ARC: (ATK: 4000 + 300 = 4300/Type: Spellcaster/Dragon)

"That's what you wanted us to stop?" Celina questioned in shock turning to Leo Akaba. "How?"

Leo Akaba only stared with a grim expression before looking at Celina, "As I said many times, the only way to destroy Zarc for good is with what stopped him before. The Natural Energy Cards by fusing you, and your counterparts back into Ray."

"Even if we did that he has five dragons and there are only four of us. Even if Zuzu counts as Pendulum now we still don't have a Ritual card so he's still too powerful." Celina pointed out.

"You think I don't know that?" Leo Akaba questioned before looking back, "But maybe there is a reason why Zarc included Ritual in the first place. That might be the key."

As he said this Zarc raised an arm as the shrouded dragon charged a large yellow blast firing it piercing through Obelisk without effort. Kaiba could only watch as Obelisk exploded.

(Kaiba: 0750/Hand: 1)

Zarc then takes a card summoning something as it was shown as Odd-Eyes' corrupted form roaring.

Odd-Eyes: (Attack Position/ATK: 2500 + 300 = 2800/Type: Spellcaster/Dragon)

Kaiba frowned before lowering his arms as he stared at the dragon calmly.

"Oh no Kaiba watch out!" Yugi cried knowing what's gonna happen next.

"Finish this Supreme King Dragon Odd-Eyes!" Odd-Eyes charged a blast before firing it at Kaiba.

The blast hit creating an explosion before it faded revealing Kaiba had kneeled down in defeat.


Kaiba: 0000

Hand: 1

Field: Nothing

Zarc: 2100

Hand: 1

Field: Battle for Supremacy (Field Zone), Supreme King Gate Zero (Pendulum), Supreme King Gate Infinity (Pendulum), Supreme King Z-ARC (Attack Position/ATK: 4300/Type: Spellcaster/Dragon/Unaffected to opponent's card effects), Supreme King Dragon Odd-Eyes (Attack Position/ATK: 2800/Type: Spellcaster/Dragon)

Zarc wins!


"Hmm... Well you are the first mortal, I used myself on that's for certain..." Zarc started as the cards vanished but the shrouded dragon remained behind him despite the duel ended, "However I expected more from the power of the Blue-Eyes White Dragons, you only used that mediocre God before me."

Kaiba slowly got to his feet. "I didn't expect that, I underestimated you this time."


Ulrich362: Kaiba lost to Zarc... though he was testing out some new Obelisk Cards... if he used his true ace who knows what might have happened.

bopdog111: Maybe sometime soon Kaiba will re-challenge Zarc only this time he will use Blue-Eyes against him for a true battle of dragons.

Ulrich362: It's possible, though the real question is what's going to happen now?

bopdog111: Well Zarc is still around, and with this pace at this rate Leo Akaba will hurry to revive Ray, and use the Natural Energy Cards to destroy him. Of course, with Ritual now a part of Zarc it will be different but Leo Akaba said that perhaps the key is figuring out why Zarc is now using Ritual.

Ulrich362: Makes sense, see you in the next chapter.

bopdog111: Be sure to review!
