Chapter 1010: Don't You Already Have the Sacrifice?
“What about this next move?”
Youxuan said with a smile, and Yeshen's heart tightened again. The same went for the other two brothers.
More tricks?
The three of them hadn't even noticed that their mindset had subtly shifted during this Duel.
Especially the way this person spoke, with an inexplicable confidence, a faint smile that seemed to be tinged with mischief, and a hint of anticipation, as if waiting to see the opponent's reaction.
The surrounding darkness, the pitch-black background field, and the swirling black fog all added an eerie charm to that sinister smile.
But the problem was...
This Dark Domain's atmosphere was clearly enhanced by Yeshen's own field, right?
Why did it feel like the sinister aura was somehow resonating with the opponent's?
“Activate the Spell Card ‘Mandatory Summon,’” Youxuan said. “Choose one monster on the opponent’s field, and they must Special Summon as many monsters of the same race from their Deck as possible.”
Jou: “?”
Kaiba: “??”
Yeshen: “???”
Actually, this card was most familiar to the President. Not only had he used it in the original series, but he had also designed and developed it himself.
At first glance, it seemed like a card with no clear purpose. Choosing a monster on the field and then unconditionally Special Summoning as many monsters of the same race from the Deck as possible. Such an overpowered summoning effect was made strange by the condition that it had to be the opponent’s monster.
However, the President had a reason for developing this card. It was specifically designed to counter the three Godlike Deities that Atlum possessed.
As long as Atlum had one Godlike Deity on the field, using this card could immediately force the summoning of the other two Godlike Deities. Then, with all three Godlike Deities on the field, Kaiba would activate the Trap “Pyramid of Light,” which would instantly banish all three Godlike Deities from Yu Gi.
This was the strategy Kaiba had used against Atlum in the “Pyramid of Light” movie.
It wasn't surprising that Youxuan had this card, given how often he scoured Kaibacorp’s warehouses. But what was he planning now?
Currently, only two Yeshens were on the field. Activating Mandatory Summon would definitely target Yeshen, and the only remaining Beast-type monster was the third Yeshen, Yeshen Annihilator. Youxuan was clearly helping them to summon all three Yeshens.
The situation was similar to when Kaiba faced Atlum, but back then, Kaiba had the Pyramid of Light to counter. Now, with Pyramid of Light gone along with Anubis' evil soul, Youxuan certainly didn't have it.
Yeshen, sharing the same thoughts as the others, couldn't help but laugh after a brief moment of surprise.
“I have no idea what you’re planning,” Yeshen said loudly. “But in all my years, I’ve never seen someone actively help us summon all three brothers.
Since you’re so eager to die, we’ll oblige you!”
Yeshen raised his Duel Disk, and the surging darkness enveloped it. A dark beam shot out from the Deck, transforming into a black waterfall that soared into the sky!
Then, the darkness took form.
Sharp claws, a body bathed in black flames, and a destructive force that seemed to annihilate everything.
Yeshen Annihilator, has arrived!
Yeshen Annihilator, Attack Power?
The three Yeshens gathered together, their auras compounding, amplifying the overall pressure to an almost overwhelming degree.
Even from the sidelines, Kaiba gazed at the imposing figures of the three Yeshens, feeling the immense pressure, and the scenes from the past seemed to float before his eyes once more.
When Atlum was still around, commanding three Godlike Deities on the field, the trembling sensation he felt standing opposite them was no less intense.
But in the end, Kaiba never managed to break through that formation, never managed to breach the blockade of the three gods.
Kaiba fell silent, but his gaze returned to Youxuan.
As the new Duel King, Fujiki Youxuan, could you successfully challenge the three gods gathered together?
But Youxuan quickly provided an answer, and it was almost too quick.
"So, you're planning to exploit the Annihilator's effect", Yeshen said. "A Yeshen Special Summoned must be sent to the Graveyard at the end of the turn.
And when Yeshen Annihilator is sent to the Graveyard, all other cards on the field must also be sent to the Graveyard. You're thinking of using the Annihilator's effect to remove my two Yeshens, right?"
Toushi realized, "That's it! No wonder, Youxuan. You're using the opponent's drawback to clear the field."
"But Mr. Yeshen!" Before he could finish, Yeshen proudly interrupted, "I, Yeshen Divine Incarnation, am the supreme Yeshen. The effects of lesser gods have no power over me!
Even if the Annihilator's effect activates, I will remain unharmed!"
Root of Terror hesitated, wanting to speak but holding back.
Not you, big brother. You might be unharmed, but I'll be the one who gets destroyed.
But intimidated by his brother's authority, he dared not speak, only glaring at the Annihilator.
Why did you have to compare yourself to the Traitor Dragon? Did you really have to learn all the traitorous tricks? Focusing on betraying teammates for thirty years, huh?
"Youxuan continued, "I activate the Magic Card 'Double Summon.' This turn, I can perform two Normal Summons."
He had already Normal Summoned the Blazing Maiden this turn, but with the Double Summon, he now had the opportunity for a second Normal Summon.
Yeshen was puzzled.
He thought Youxuan was planning to use the Annihilator's effect to clear the field, but that would send all of Youxuan's own cards to the Graveyard as well. In other words, anything Youxuan summoned this turn would be destroyed at the end of the turn.
But now, using Double Summon to summon another monster seemed like a waste.
Was he not planning to use the Annihilator's effect?
Yeshen suddenly felt a deep sense of unease.
Especially when Youxuan slowly drew a card from his hand, and a golden light erupted from his chest without warning!
Even Kaiba, seeing the golden light and sensing the familiar power, couldn't help but narrow his eyes.
The power converged at his chest, the golden light coalescing into a triangular form, materializing out of thin air.
A form like a thousand-year-old puzzle!
"Since my opponent is Yeshen, this is the most suitable card to use."
Youxuan raised the card in his hand, the card's surface now indiscernible, the blinding golden light making it almost impossible to open one's eyes, even piercing through the densest Darkness in the field.
"Impossible!"
Yeshen instinctively raised his arm to shield himself from the golden light, but he couldn't help shouting.
Not only were the Godlike Deities no longer in this world, but how could a mere human have the right to command a god?
Besides,
"There are only two monsters on your field!" Yeshen shouted against the pressure of the golden light, "You don't have enough tributes!"
"Tributes?"
Youxuan smiled lightly.
"Aren't they all on your field now?"
The three Yeshens were taken aback.
Huh?
