"To destroy Dark Law, you'd rather banish the Phoenix? Interesting... But I'll activate the Quick-Play Spell Card, Form Change!"
Tenjo Hikari raised an eyebrow.
Form Change—
In other words, the final card is "Super Polymerization"!
I didn't expect to almost exhaust my defenses so quickly!
"The effect of Form Change returns my LV 8 Dark Attribute Hero Fusion Monster, Malicious Edge Synchro, to the Deck. From the Extra Deck, I Special Summon a Masked Hero with the same LV but a different card name as if it's a Mask Change."
"I return Malicious Edge Synchro to the Deck, and Special Summon, LV 8, Masked Hero Atomic."
Masked Hero Atomic, LV 8, Fire Attribute, Warrior-Type, Attack Power 2600.
If Furnace Fire resembles "Iron Man," then Atomic is simply synonymous with high-tech heroes, his gear so lavish it's overwhelming.
"Now, I release Destroyer Phoenix Enforcer, and Special Summon LV 8 Magical Steel Knight - Gilti-Gearfried."
The knight of steel swung a long axe on his right arm and made a heroic entrance.
Magical Steel Knight - Gilti-Gearfried, LV 8, Light Attribute, Warrior-Type, Attack Power 2700.
"Dark Supremacy loses its target effect, rendering it ineffective." Tenjo Hikari pointed at Dark Law, "Destroyer Phoenix Enforcer's effect destroys my Damning Claw Demon and your Dark Law!"
Despite being isolated within endless darkness outside of space, the immortal flame still burns fiercely, setting ablaze everything within this crimson realm.
A moment later, two cards simultaneously exploded, disappearing from the field.
"Oh—"
"Spectacular!"
"Terrifying... Is this what excellence in a Duelist looks like?"
The observers were all too shocked to speak after witnessing this series of chains.
Although from a chain perspective, it was simply a straightforward offense and defense, one crucial thing was that even during non-main phase—not even during battle phase—this all exploded during the preparation phase!
No "main confrontation" had happened; rather, everything erupted during preparation!
Seeing the Monster dealt with, Tenjo Hikari breathed a sigh of relief and spoke, "The effect of Predaplant Chimerafflesia. Add one Polymerization Spell Card from the Deck to hand."
"Wait—"
The Supreme King suddenly raised his hand, saying, "Chain your activation. I have an effect to activate too."
What?
He does too?
Could it be—
He glanced at Atomic.
Another Monster whose effect he didn't know!
"Atomic's effect activates when this card is Special Summoned, targeting one Masked Hero Monster in my own Graveyard or in Banished state that isn't Fire Attribute. That Monster is Special Summoned in Defense Position ignoring summoning conditions!"
Oh no—
Tenjo Hikari's expression changed.
"Oh, oh!!"
"Reviving Dark Law now?"
"Interesting, continue Supreme King, hopefully both sides end up injured, everyone dying would be best!"
Some entities, not concerned with those that appeared most whole as "projections," let out bloodthirsty cheers, seemingly affected by the red light, producing sharp screeching sounds.
"What are you doing!!"
In the Spiritual World, Judai saw this scene, leaving him in furious anger.
Anyone could clearly see the terrifying results this Duel could lead to, in this crimson space growing ever more bizarre.
Despite this, the Supreme King intensified his Duel.
In this trajectory, Hikari and he were bound to have a "life and death!"
This was something Judai wanted to avoid!
However, Supreme King paid no heed to his calls, serenely responding as always: "Survival of the fittest is justice."
"...But you're already dead!"
Judai spoke in a steady tone.
The Supreme King's constant saying was also his own "regret," wasn't it?
The calm on the Supreme King's face finally broke, showing a trace of astonishment.
Soon after, he seemed finally satisfied, raising an eyebrow slightly.
Subsequently, he slowly shut his eyes, appearing in the Spiritual World, facing Judai directly.
"Seems like you finally understand," the Supreme King casually said.
Judai's eyes slowly glowed with golden light, but in the crimson world, his eyes seemed particularly terrifying: "...I won't make the same mistake!"
He looked resolutely at the Supreme King.
"Duality… Hikari truly used a good card."
"Therefore, I won't abandon this Duel that reignites my long-lost fervor!"
Judai clenched his fist.
Yes—
If it were him, he wouldn't give up either!
Then share his strength with Tenjo Hikari!
At the same time.
On the field, the previously destroyed Monster reappeared.
Masked Hero Dark Law, LV 6, Dark Attribute, Warrior-Type, DEF 1800.
"Come—Choose your magic."
Tenjo Hikari furrowed his brows, opening his Deck and pondering carefully.
He could directly choose to add Super Polymerization to his hand, since it's a Quick-Play Spell Card. When added to his hand, although it triggers Dark Law's effect, he could chain Dark Law's effect to perform Super Polymerization.
Just...
Dark Attribute, Fire Attribute, Light Attribute, Water Attribute, Tenjo Hikari's Garura, Wings of Resonant Life can at most fuse Neos and Magical Steel Knight.
At that time, he not only had to discard a card from hand to banish, but a card would also be instantly banished. If a bad card is banished, the situation would become incredibly dangerous.
