Chapter 1508 What is this thing with holes all over its body and rolling around in the alley?

Although the effect of [D·hero Fear Man] not only changes its own attack power, but also its defense power to a terrifying 7900 points, what Ed needs now is not a powerful shield, but a monster that can attack.

Forced into defense mode by Shaddoll Hound, D.Hero is unable to take part in the attack at this stage of the battle.

Seeing his [D·hero Fear Man] being changed to defense mode, Ed was not too surprised. He had an expression that he had expected it. "As expected, Mr. Hayato, you did have cards prepared to deal with this situation, so you look so relaxed."

"But, from the very beginning, I was developing the story on the premise that [D-hero Fear Man] would be dealt with by you, Hayato-sensei!"

Without [D·hero Fear Man], how can Ed deal with the monsters on Hayato's field?
[D·hero敌拓邦人]: That's easy, I can just become the master!

"Without [D·hero Fear Man], I will use [D·hero Dystopian Man] to fight! Use him to attack [Half-Dragon Maid·Dragon Butler] on your field, Hayato-sensei!"

Originally, the attack power of [D·hero Dystopian] was only 2800 points, and it was no match for Hayato's [Half-Dragon Maid·Dragon Housekeeper]. However, Ed's previous [D·hero Dagger Man] relied on increasing the attack power of all of Ed's [D·hero] monsters to increase the attack power of [D·hero Fear Man], which naturally benefited [D·hero Dystopian] as well.

While [Half-Dragon Maid·Glory Dragon Girl] is turning into a relatively weak human form, [Half-Dragon Maid·Dragon Housekeeper] and [D·hero Dystopian] launch an attack!
"Sting the Entopia!"

A beam of black energy like a scorpion's tail extended from the body of [D·hero Dystopian], and flexibly unfolded around [D·hero Dystopian], and then wrapped around its right foot to add strength to it.

With a leap, [D·hero Dystopian] adjusted his posture in mid-air and attacked Hayato's [Half-Dragon Maid·Dragon Housekeeper] with a flying kick!
"Damn it! During your turn's Standby Phase, I use the effect of [Half-Dragon Maid·Cooking Dragon Maiden] to retrieve this [Half-Dragon Maid·Red Flame Dragon Maiden] added to my hand, and it has an effect that can be activated from the hand during the opponent's turn!" At this time, Hayato also showed a card from his hand, "Discard it from my hand, and activate it by targeting a [Half-Dragon Maid] monster on my field, increasing the target monster's ATK by 2000 points until the end of the turn!"

Sending the card to the Graveyard, Hayato points to the [Dragon Maid·Dragon Butler] on his field and says, "Chain [D·hero Dystopian]'s attack declaration is activated. The target of the effect I want to select is naturally [Dragon Maid·Dragon Butler] who has become the target of your monster's attack, and its ATK increases by 2000 points!"

Now the attack power of [Half-Dragon Maid·Dragon Housekeeper] has reached 3300 points. If Hayato successfully applies the power of [Half-Dragon Maid·Red Flame Dragon Maiden] to [Half-Dragon Maid·Dragon Housekeeper], its attack power will instantly increase to 5300 points, which is equivalent to the previous [Five Divine Dragons]. Instead, it will kill the [D·hero Antopia] who actively approaches and attacks it!

Even though Ed's D·hero Dreadman's D·hero Utopia Man will not be destroyed and Ed will not receive battle damage, the attack of D·hero Utopia Man this round will be wasted.

"Like [Half-Dragon Maid: Earthly Dragon Maid], can [Half-Dragon Maid] activate a different effect by discarding it from the hand?" Ed frowned, somewhat anticipating the scene at this moment, "In that case, I can only use this effect!"

"The second effect of [D. Hero Dystopian], if the attack power of this card is different from its original attack power, you can activate it by targeting a card on the field!"

Originally, Ed was planning to use this effect after [D·hero Dystopian] finished attacking to maximize its value, but now [D·hero Dystopian] was about to be beaten back by [Half-Dragon Maid·Dragon Housekeeper] whose attack power soared, so he had to use it even if he didn't want to.

"Destroy the target card, and at the same time, the attack power of [D·hero Dystopian] will return to its original value. This effect can also be activated during the opponent's turn." Ed pointed to Hayato's field, "The effect target I chose is naturally [Half-Dragon Maid·Dragon Housekeeper] on your field, Mr. Hayato!"

"Just like you said just now, 'No matter how high the attack power is, it is meaningless if you can't use it.' As long as I destroy the [Half-Dragon Maid·Dragon Maid Steward] who is about to get the [Half-Dragon Maid·Red Flame Dragon Maid] first, I don't need to worry about its attack power!"

"Destiny Bomb!"

Holding an energy ball in each hand, when Ed clapped his hands together, [D·hero Utopia] also pressed the two energy balls together, and suddenly a shock wave swept towards Hayato on the field.

As the eldest sister of the family, [Half-Dragon Maid·Dragon Housekeeper] naturally stood in the front to defend against the impact for the others behind her. She successfully blocked almost all the impact, leaving Xiaolan and the others behind with only the breeze.

However, the price was that [Half-Dragon Maid·Dragon Butler] was also forced to disappear from Hayato's field.

At that moment, the attack and defense data of the monsters on the field of both sides almost all changed.

[Welcome from the Half-Dragon Maid] [Mirage of Nightmare]

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

"Destroying one of the [Half-Dragon Maid] monsters has reduced the bonus provided by [Half-Dragon Maid's Greeting]. Then, due to the lack of an attack target, [D·Hero Utopia] has triggered the attack rollback rule and can reselect an attack target."

Ed pointed at the [Divine Shadow Nephilim] on Hayato's field, whose defense was just 100 points lower than that of [D·hero Dystopian], and whose attack power had now returned to its original value. "The monster I want to attack is [Divine Shadow Nephilim]!" "When [Divine Shadow Nephilim] battles with a Special Summoned monster, activate its effect at the beginning of the Damage Step and destroy the target monster." Hayato paused, "But——"

"However, due to the protection of [D·hero Fear], my [D·hero] monsters will not be destroyed this turn, so even the effect of [Divine Shadow I·Nephilim] cannot resist the attack of [D·hero Dystopian]!"

After finishing Hayato's unfinished words, Ed waved his hand and said, "Attack again, [D·hero Antopia] - Sting Antopia!"

This time, [D·hero Utopia]'s attack was launched successfully and he kicked the tall giant girl with a flying kick, and the puppet-like face showed an expression of pain and sadness. [Divine Shadow I·Nephilim] was destroyed by Ed's attack and sent to the graveyard. However, because it was in defense mode, Hayato was not hurt.

However, because [Divine Shadow I·Nephilim] was destroyed and sent to the graveyard, the threads wrapped around [D·hero Fear Man] dissipated, but a few of them were wrapped around something and stretched out in front of Hayato.

"Well, take a good rest, Nephilim. I will accept your power." Hayato took the card in front of him and showed it to Ed, "The third effect of Divine Shadow Nephilim is that when this card is sent to the Graveyard, I can activate it by targeting a Shaddoll Spell/Trap Card in my Graveyard and add that card to my hand."

“Although it doesn’t seem to be written on the card, [Contact with the God’s Avatar] has a [Shadowdwell] field. I’ll add this card to my hand.”

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

"It's a pity that although it's an Angel, [Divine Shadow Nephilim] is a Fusion Monster, so it can't trigger the second effect of a Field Spell Card."

Hearing Hayato's words, Ed also glanced at the ominous drama city under his feet, then looked at Hayato and said: "But Mr. Hayato, although [Contact with God's Fake Body] was recovered, it is not the face-up card. You should not be able to activate it from your hand, right?"

"Even if it was covered last turn, it's useless because you can only activate one of this card per turn." Hayato nodded.

"Unlike you, during my turn, I can activate a Quick-Play Magic Card from my hand during the Battle Phase. And this card in my hand is the key to my victory!"

Ed glanced at the continuous magic card [Future Fusion] on his backcourt, "Use this quick-attack magic card - [Instant Fusion] to become the navigator to the future!"

"I will use the three monsters on my field, [D·hero Demon Man], [D·hero Dystopian Man], and [D·hero Fear Man] as fusion materials, and activate [Instant Fusion]!"

"Triple Fusion!?" Outside the arena, Asuka opened her eyes wide in surprise, watching Ed fusing [D·hero Fear Man] to the graveyard as a fusion material, "Does [D·hero] also have such a powerful monster?"

Ed, who had noticed Asuka's arrival, sent the card to the graveyard, glanced at Asuka, then looked at Hayato and said, "The serious [D·hero] and the frivolous [E·hero] are not the same. The greatest limit of them who carry a heavy fate is the fusion of the two bodies."

"However, my friends will guide me into the future. With the knowledge of the future and the awareness, the bond between me and my friends will give birth to a new power for [D·hero]!"

"The monster I want to fuse is the one I showed you before with [Future Fusion]—"

"Phantom from the future, the trinity gathers into a majestic figure, breaks free from the shackles, and strikes fate with a punch as strong as a meteor!" Putting his hands together, the power of Saiou that has always existed in Ed's deck also climbed up his arms and attached to the card in Ed's hand, "Fusion Summon, Level 8☆!"

"Show yourself! [V·hero Trinity]!"

[V·hero Sanren][8☆/Dark]

[Warrior/Fusion/Effect]

[2500/2000]

The power of the three bodies [D·hero] was absorbed by [Instant Fusion], twisted and combined into a warrior wearing red armor, and appeared on Ed's field during this battle phase. The card that Ed regarded as his last hope was the [V·hero Trinity] that he had shown when he activated [Future Fusion] before!
"Finally, it's here! The strongest [V·hero] with the power to shake fate!" Looking at the [V·hero trio] on his field, Ed said excitedly.

"Break free from the shackles." Compared to Ed's excitement, Hayato was more concerned about Ed's summoning words before he shot the [V·hero Trinity]. "In your opinion, Ed, do your [D·hero]s carry the burden of fate?"

"Isn't that so, Mr. Hayato?" Ed said as if it was a matter of course. "I remember there was a saying in the ancient Eastern countries, 'When Heaven is about to confer a great responsibility on a man, it will first make his muscles and bones toil, his body to starve, and his actions to be disturbed.' The general meaning is that heroes always have to go through hardships, right?"

"Just like in the comics, important people around heroes always leave for various reasons, such as the Thomas couple who fell in front of Bruce Wayne, and Uncle Ben who taught Peter Parker that the greater the ability, the greater the responsibility." After a pause, Ed silently added his father who was murdered by DD to the list.

"My [D·hero]s are also fighting with their own heavy fates on their shoulders, right? However, by using the power of [V·hero]'s phantom, even my [D·hero] can temporarily break free from the gravity of fate."

However, listening to what Ed said, Hayato shook his head in disapproval: "You are so full of arbitrary ideas. And when you say 'break free', you are not referring to the divination tricks that King Sai is thinking about, right?"

Ed was not surprised that Hayato mentioned Saiou's name. After all, in addition to being his agent, his friend Saiou was also known as a fortune teller in the upper class. It could be that during this period of time, Teacher Hayato had learned about the interpersonal relationships among his students.

"Saiou's divination can foresee the future for sure. If people can know what their future will be like, they will not panic because of unexpected accidents. This is 'enlightenment', and 'enlightenment' will blow away all 'despair'!" Attempting to correct Hayato's use of the derogatory term "tricks" for his friend's divination, Ed said seriously, "With such 'enlightenment', what's wrong with letting my [D·hero] break free from the pressure of fate!"

"So you're still just a kid." Looking at Ed, Hayato shook his head again and said, "Not to mention that the so-called 'future' should never be something that you must accept calmly and not make any efforts to change after knowing it. You were wrong from the beginning, Ed—"

"Your [D·hero] never fights with fate on their shoulders. They only carry you."

"I don't understand what you mean by carrying myself, Mr. Hayato." Ed couldn't understand what Hayato was saying, frowned and tried to stop the conversation, waving his hand and said, "But I know this - that is, this [V·hero Trinity] that I created with the power of Saiou, the power he can release is far more than you can imagine!"

"When a Fusion Summon succeeds, V-Hero Trinity's attack power becomes twice its original attack power until the end of the turn, and the Fusion Summoned V-Hero Trinity can attack up to three times during the same Battle Phase."

Pointing at Hayato's field, Ed shouted, "Although [V-hero Trinity] cannot attack directly, there are only three monsters left on your field, Mr. Hayato!"

Answer: Bowling, of course. What else do you think it is?
