[Armed Dragon·Thunder-LV10] [ATK3300→4300]

[Armed Dragon·Thunder-LV10] has the effect of increasing the attack of the bulk red father. When Ed just selected [Five Dragons] as the effect target of [D·Hero Blood Demon-D], Hayato decisively activated the effect of [Armed Dragon·Thunder-LV10] to follow up the chain.

However, due to the protection effect of [D·hero Fear Man], Ed's [D·hero]s will not be destroyed in this round, so Hayato chooses to destroy the [Five Dragons] on his own field, and there is a scene where lightning and lightning follow the blood of the [Five Dragons] and hit [D·hero Blood Demon-D].

"We failed to capture the Five Divine Dragons, but at least this way, we have eliminated them."

Looking at Hayato, Ed was about to continue playing cards, but he saw Hayato draw a card from the deck and said, "Before you continue, let me draw another card - the card sent to the graveyard by the effect of [Armed Dragon·Thunder-LV10] is [Armed Dragon·Thunder-LV3]. In the event that it is sent to the graveyard in order to activate the effect of a Dragon monster, I can draw a card from the deck."

[Hayato Kobayashi: 2900LP, hand 5→4→5]

"It's quite durable in terms of endurance. Isn't this the same as not needing to discard cards to activate its effect?" Ed looked at his hand, which only had two cards left, and first took out a card from the graveyard. "I will use the effect of the second [D·hero Demon] in my graveyard again, banish it to activate, and Special Summon the third [D·hero Demon] from my deck."

[D. Hero Fear Man][ATK4700→5500]

Ed originally planned to use [D·hero Bloodthirster-D] to capture [Five Dragons]. Not only would the attack power of [D·hero Bloodthirster-D] increase by 2500 points, which is half of the attack power of [Five Dragons], but [D·hero Fear Man] would also be able to increase its attack power by 2500 points, allowing its own attack power to break through 7000 points and become 7200 points, which is higher than before the original special summon of [D·hero Bloodthirster-D].

However, it doesn't matter if he fails, because with the support of other [D·hero], the attack power of [D·hero Fear Man] is already the highest in the field. Anyone he sees is a traitor. Even if the [Five Divine Dragons] return to the field, he will not take them seriously because of the support of the new [D·hero Demon Man].

And now, the lineup on the field of Ed is——

[Ed Phoenix: 4000LP, 2 cards in hand]

[D·hero Demon Man][ATK800]

[D.heroDystopian] [ATK2800]

[D. Hero Blood Demon-D] [ATK1900]

[D. Hero Fear Man][ATK5500]

【Future Fusion】

Although Hayato's basic points were reduced by 1100 points by the effect of Ed's [D·hero Dystopian], there are still 2900 points left. He is more than enough to fight with the monsters on Ed's field, but he is still far from winning. Unless he has a card like [Enemy Controller] that can change the representation of Hayato's monsters on the field, he can still win by attacking [Half-Dragon Maid·Cooking Dragon Maiden] or [Half-Dragon Maid·Dressing Table Dragon Maiden].

Venue: [Branded Drama City-Despair and Death Prison]

However, although he doesn't have an [Enemy Controller], Ed does have a [D·hero] monster in his hand that can exert quite powerful effects.

"Discard [D·hero Daggerman] from my hand to activate its effect, increasing the ATK of all [D·hero] monsters on my field by 800 points!"

Showing a card in his hand, Ed said, "Under the effect of this card, the monsters on my field will be collectively strengthened, and the attack power of [D·hero Fear Man] will be further improved by leaps and bounds!"

【D·hero】【ATK800→1600】

[D.hero Dystopian] [ATK2800→3600]

[D. Hero Blood Demon-D] [ATK1900→2700]

[D. Hero Fear Man][ATK5500→6300→8700]

"That's it! This is the strongest attack of my [D·hero]s!" Looking at the [D·hero]s on his field that almost completely surpassed Hayato's monsters, Ed was sincerely happy, "I have touched upon the chance to defeat the legendary Duel King - to defeat Hayato-sensei!"

"Enter my fighting phase!"

However, at the moment when Ed declared that he was entering the battle, flames suddenly ignited on the body of Hayato's [Half-Dragon Maid·Cooking Dragon Maiden]. Bathed in flames, [Half-Dragon Maid·Cooking Dragon Maiden] actually turned into a dragon?

"At the start of both battle phases, the effect of [Half-Dragon Maid: Cooking Dragon Maiden] can be activated. By returning this card to its owner's hand, I can Special Summon a Level 8☆ [Half-Dragon Maid] monster from my hand or Graveyard."

After hearing Hayato's explanation, Ed didn't take it seriously because he wasn't paying attention to the [Half-Dragon Maid·Cooking Dragon Maid] in defense mode.

There is no monster on his field with the Defense Penetration effect, so even if he attacks the [Half-Dragon Maid·Cooking Dragon Maiden] in Defense Position, he cannot cause damage. Instead of defeating weaker monsters one by one to weaken the bonus provided by [Welcome to Half-Dragon Maid], Ed's amazing wisdom gave the answer - just use [D·Hero Fear Man] to directly attack [Armed Dragon·Thunder-LV10].

The difference in attack power between the two is as high as 4400 points, which means that even without the effect damage caused by [D·hero Utopia] before, this battle has the weight of deciding the outcome of the duel. In this way, the presence or absence of other monsters on Hayato's field becomes unimportant.

However, what Ed didn't expect was that at the same time that Hayato activated the effect of [Half-Dragon Maid·Cooking Dragon Maiden], he also pressed the button to activate the cover card, flipped up the cover card on his backfield and followed the chain.

"In addition to this card, I will link the effect of [Half-Dragon Maid: Cooking Dragon Maiden] to my backfield cover card - Quick-Play Magic Card [Contact with God's Fake Body]!"

Hayato took out a card from his hand and showed it, and picked up the card of [Half-Dragon Maid·Dressing Table Dragon Lady] on the Duel Board, "Send the Fusion Material Monster determined by the [Shadowdile] Fusion Monster Card from my hand and field to the Graveyard, and Fusion Summon that Fusion Monster from the Fusion Deck!" "I send the Light Attribute [Half-Dragon Maid·Dressing Table Dragon Lady] on my field and the [Shadowdile] in my hand to the Graveyard, and the material requirements are met by a [Shadowdile] monster plus a Light Attribute monster."

"O magnificent Special Summon Killer, you have repeatedly struggled on the edge of taboo, but now, at my call, you will stand tall on the earth again!"

"Fusion Summon, Level 8☆!"

"Attack - [Divine Shadow Nephilim]!"

[Divine Shadow Nephilim] [8☆/Light]

[Angel Family/Fusion/Effect]

[2800/2500]

"Shadowdaught?!" Seeing Hayato take out a new card slot from his so-called "pure dragon maid" deck after Armed Dragon and Conqueror Dragon, Ed couldn't help but complain, "Is this also Half-Dragon Maid?"

"Don't you think the card of [Divine Shadow Nephilim] looks like she's wearing a maid outfit?" Hayato said nonsense, picking up the card of [Half-Dragon Maid - Cooking Dragon Girl] from the Duel Disk. "Next, we'll deal with Xiaohong's effect. She will undergo a gorgeous transformation and special summon this card from my graveyard!"

"Come back! [Half-dragon maid·Dressing table dragon girl]!"

6◇9◇Book◇Bar

When the flames dissipated, the monster that appeared on Hayato's field was not the dragon form that [Half-Dragon Maid·Cooking Dragon Maiden] could transform into, but the [Half-Dragon Maid·Dressing Table Dragon Maiden] that Hayato had just sent to the graveyard, which surprised Ed.

If you think about it carefully, although the effect of [Half-Dragon Maid·Cooking Dragon Maiden] does not specify that it can only transform into the dragon form of a specific maid, it only has requirements for the level and name. As long as it is a Level 8☆ [Half-Dragon Maid], she can be Special Summoned.

Coincidentally, [Half-Dragon Maid·Dressing Table Dragon Lady] is a Level 8☆ [Half-Dragon Maid] monster. Its own Special Summoning restriction only requires that it can be Special Summoned from a Fusion Deck. Since she has made a regular appearance and has been subject to the Resurrection Restriction, she can naturally be Special Summoned by [Half-Dragon Maid·Cooking Dragon Lady]!
[Half-dragon maid·Dressing table dragon girl][DEF3000]

The [Half-Dragon Maid·Dressing Table Dragon Lady] who returned to the field held a bottle of blush in her hand, and under Hayato's command, she smeared it in the air, drawing a human figure. But it was not only her, but also the [Divine Shadow I·Nephilim] on Hayato's field took action, waving large pieces of silk threads to invade Hayato's deck, and Hayato's graveyard also lit up with a dark purple light.

"If [Half-Dragon Maid Dresser Dragon Lady] is Special Summoned successfully, Special Summon a Level 4☆ or lower [Half-Dragon Maid] monster from my Deck. Use the ambient color adaptive lip gloss and blush for wet or dry use!"

"It's not over yet! If [Divine Shaddoll Nephilim] is Special Summoned successfully, I can also send a [Shaddoll] card from my deck to the Graveyard, and with the effect of [Shaddoll] sent to the Graveyard as Fusion Material, I draw a card from my deck."

It was clearly the start of the Battle Phase of Ed's turn, and there were powerful monsters on the field, but Ed was unable to interrupt Hayato's sudden storytelling and could only watch him move around in his turn.

"C1 [Half-Dragon Maid·Dressing Table Dragon Lady] C2 [Divine Shadow·Nephilim] C3 [Shadow Beast], in the chain processing, the last one to be dealt with will come first. I will draw a card from the deck first."

After replenishing the card that was lost during the previous Fusion Summon, Hayato retrieved a card from the deck and sent it to the graveyard. "Then, under the effect of [Divine Shaddoll Nephilim], I sent this [Shaddoll Hound] from the deck to the graveyard."

"Finally, it's the effect of [Half-Dragon Maid: Dressing Table Dragon Lady], I Special Summon the small blue card that was previously returned to the deck from my deck to the field in Defense Position."

"Xiao Lan, resurrected!"

Xiaolan, who was unaware of the situation on the field, heard Hayato's call and jumped out excitedly without waiting for Hayato to retrieve the card from the deck and put it on the field. Then, seeing the [D·hero Fear Man] with an attack power of 8700 points on Ed's field, Xiaolan, who was the first-level retreat player of the Kobayashi family, immediately chose to retreat.

"Ahahaha, I won't bother you anymore, I'm leaving now--"

Before she could finish her words, Xiao Lan was grabbed by the collar by the [Half-Dragon Maid·Dragon Housekeeper] beside her and lifted up. Her short legs kept swinging in the air but she couldn't move even a step. Xiao Lan, who only noticed that she was being lifted up, turned her head and looked at the other party with a pitiful expression, "Sister Yaoguang, why are you doing this!"

(pitiful (confident)

"It's no use being cute with me, Xiaolan." [Half-Dragon Maid·Dragon Housekeeper] gently pushed Xiaolan back to the card that Hayato had already placed on the field, "At least in front of your juniors, show some seniority."

"Junior?"

Xiao Lan was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at the [Half-Dragon Maid·Dressing Table Dragon Girl] beside her, and [Half-Dragon Maid·Dressing Table Dragon Girl] also waved and greeted Xiao Lan with a smile.

"Eh? Xiaolan, I'm a senior now?" Xiaolan's eyes suddenly lit up, and the whole person was ignited like Xiaohong before, "Oh oh oh! In that case, I really have to be motivated. There's really no other way. After all, Xiaolan, I am an admired senior~"

After a round of chain reactions, because the number of [Half-Dragon Maid] monsters on Hayato's field remained at three, the attack and defense bonus provided by [Half-Dragon Maid's Greeting] was still 300 points, and the values ​​of the newly appeared monsters also changed.

[Half-Dragon Maid·Washer Dragon Lady] [DEF1600→1900]

[Divine Shadow Nephilim] [DEF2500→2800]

When Ed thought Hayato's storytelling was over, Hayato actually moved again, and used the graveyard area of ​​the Duel Disk to face Ed's field and said, "Next, it's the effect of the special summoned Blue and the effect of the [Shadow Hound] sent to the graveyard. C1 [Shadow Hound] C2 [Half-Dragon Maid·Washer Dragon Lady]."

"First, Blue's effect sends three cards from my deck to the graveyard."

Unlike the first time, Hayato did not show the cards sent to the graveyard one by one. It seemed that he chained the cards himself just to use the effect of Blue to block Ed's chain [Shadow Hound] to activate its effect. "Then [Shadow Hound], when this card is sent to the graveyard, target a monster on the field and change its position."

"And the monster I chose is the [D·hero Fear Man] on the opponent's field!"

After a long story, Hayato's ultimate goal was revealed. A large number of purple threads suddenly emerged from the ground and entangled the [D·hero Fear Man] on the field of Ed. Under the power of [Divine Shadow I·Nephilim] behind him, this [D·hero] with an attack power of 8700 points but only destruction resistance could only be forced to be put into defense mode!
[D. Hero Fear Man][ATK8700→DEF7900]

"The attack power of duel monsters has never been the key to winning a duel." Until this moment, it seemed that the storytelling had finally ended. Looking at the sudden loss of Ed, a major offensive general, Hayato sneered, "No matter how high the attack power is, it is meaningless if you can't use it!" (End of this chapter)
