Chapter 800: The Unexpected Harvest
Chapter 800: The Unexpected Harvest
"My turn, draw!"
It was Melo's turn once again.
The attack lockdown was still in effect, restricting the power of the Beast Swordsman. Even Caesar, the leader of the Beast Swordsman, was unable to display his full strength and was defeated. Although he had regained a significant amount of Life Points with Rainbow Life, the overall situation was still highly unfavorable for him.
However, Melo had a plan.
"I Normal Summon Beast Swordsman - One-Eye Battler!"
A deep roar echoed as a heavily armored black bear appeared on the field, its bear paws pounding on its chest like a frenzied gorilla.
[Beast Swordsman - One-Eye Battler, ATK 1900]
The only Normal Monster among the Beast Swordsman family, One-Eye Battler was considered a crucial reinforcement when it was first introduced. With an ATK of 1900, it surpassed the main attacker of the lower-level Beast Swordsman, Lasso, and as a 4-star Normal Monster, it could easily be Special Summoned from the Deck using the effect of the Spell Card "Unexpected," making it a valuable asset.
"Next, I activate the effect of another Beast Swordsman in my hand, Beast Swordsman - Slave Tiger," Melo said. "When there is a Beast Swordsman Monster on your field, you can Special Summon this card."
Another Beast Swordsman, Beast Swordsman - Slave Tiger, was Special Summoned from his hand.
[Beast Swordsman - Slave Tiger, ATK 600]
"Although the Duel has progressed differently from what I expected, it seems that I still need to take this Duel seriously with you, Yugo You Xuan," Melo said. "You are a gifted Duelist, blessed by talent. Your abilities alone are enough to surpass most people in this world.
But precisely because of that, I cannot afford to lose."
He paused, narrowing his eyes slightly, and continued, "The Beast Swordsman cards were completed with the help of Bekas CEO's power, and now is the perfect time to unleash their full potential."
Melo activated the effect of Slave Tiger, offering it as a Tribute to return a Beast Swordsman from his field to the Deck, and then Special Summon any Beast Swordsman from his Deck.
Slave Tiger, which had just appeared on the field, barely had time to lick its small claws with its tongue before it was shattered into countless golden light particles and disappeared.
"I return Beast Swordsman - One-Eye Battler from the field to the Deck and Special Summon a new Beast Swordsman...
...Beast Swordsman - Augustus!"
A pitch-black whirlwind rose, feathers flying everywhere, as the Beast Swordsman's greatsword tore through the air, creating countless fragments. The Beast Swordsman's king, clad in heavy armor, descended upon the field amidst the raging wind.
[Beast Swordsman - Augustus, ATK 2600]
"Now, I activate the effect of Beast Swordsman - Augustus!" Melo exclaimed. "Augustus can only activate its effect when it is Special Summoned using the effect of a Beast Swordsman!
You can Special Summon a Beast Swordsman Monster from your hand in face-down Defense Position!"
"Slave Tiger is not a Beast Swordsman, but it can be considered as if it were Special Summoned using the effect of a Beast Swordsman," You Xuan said.
"Exactly," Melo replied. "However, the Monster Special Summoned by Augustus' effect must be returned to its owner's Deck during the End Phase. But one turn is more than enough!"
Melo revealed another Beast Swordsman card.
"Special Summon Beast Swordsman - Horse Battler!"
A high-pitched neigh sounded as the Beast Swordsman with a horse face returned to the field.
[Beast Swordsman - Horse Battler, ATK 1700]
"Next, I activate the effect of Beast Swordsman - Horse Battler," Melo continued. "When this card is Special Summoned using the effect of a Beast Swordsman, you can Special Summon a Beast Swordsman from your Graveyard with its effects negated!"
"Your Gun Fighter from the previous turn has already been returned to the Deck," You Xuan reminded him.
"I know," Melo said coldly. "But in the Graveyard, there is still the Beast Swordsman King who was destroyed by your Flame Cannon!
Return to the field once more and show your prowess...
...Beast Swordsman - Caesar!!!"
A green tornado rose, and the Beast Swordsman King descended upon the field once again.
"Unlike before, the colors on his body seemed to have dimmed this time, and his aura was slightly lacking compared to before."
"The effect of the 'Duel Beast Sword Fighter' summoned back to the field must be Unification," Yugo reminded, "even if you summon Caesar back to the field, you can't use its effect to destroy the Hypergravity Net."
"I know that, of course."
Melo hummed indignantly, seemingly displeased that Yugo would doubt his bluff.
"Now, I'll show you my ultimate Beast Swordsman power!
I return 'Duel Beast Sword Fighter Augustus', 'Duel Beast Caesar', and 'Duel Beast Horse Battler' from the field to the deck. Triple Fusion!"
Yugo raised an eyebrow.
He remembered that the early Beast Swordsman's big brother should be Caesar, who was almost synonymous with the Beast Swordsman's symbol. If there was a card that surpassed Caesar's ace...
"The fusion condition is 'Duel Beast Sword Fighter Augustus' plus any two Beast Monsters. Fusion Summon!"
Melo raised his arm high.
"Oh, wandering ancient Beast Swordsman's spirit, under the name of the Emperor, grant me your power!
Fusion Summon! Descend—
Perfect Edition in 69 Book Bar! Read it! 6=9+Book Bar, the first novel to be published here.
—Duel Beast Blind Battler!!!"
The three Beast Swordsmen disappeared into the vortex. The triple fusion was like tearing through the boundaries of time and space, and the roars and shouts from ancient arenas almost overwhelmed everything.
A Beast Swordsman wearing an ancient gladiator's helmet, adorned with a dazzling blue armor, wielding a sharp sword, and with a blade at the end of its long tail that could tear through all things.
[Duel Beast Blind Battler, Attack 1000]
Yugo was slightly surprised.
"So that's how it is," Yugo muttered, "this is the power of the Beast Swordsman borrowed from Bekas CEO. It shouldn't exist in this form."
Of course, the statement about it not existing was based on his own knowledge. In reality, this card was released long after the golden age of Beast Swordsmen, when they had already become nostalgic for veteran players. This was a later support card.
But unlike most other deck support cards, this one had the distinction of being a support card with an anime appearance. "Duel Beast Blind Battler" made its debut in "V - Yu-Gi-Oh! ARC-V".
Arc-V is a unique installment in the Yu-Gi-Oh! franchise. Due to its low ratings, explosive word-of-mouth, and abstract storyline, it is often considered an official fan-work by card enthusiasts. However, this installment made significant contributions.
Its most notable aspect is its world-building, which for the first time integrated the fusion, synchro, and Xyz dimensions from previous generations of Yu-Gi-Oh!, introducing a multiverse-like setting based on summoning methods.
The fusion dimension is similar to a parallel world of GX, where characters like Eddie Phoenix and Asuka Tenjoin from GX appear, but as parallel world counterparts.
This world also has a Duel Academy, but it's a military academy that invades other worlds through Duels.
Within this Duel Academy, the strongest Duelist, feared even by the academy's ruler and sealed away as a forbidden weapon, is "Beast Warrior", the user of the Beast Swordsman deck.
The "Duel Beast Blind Battler" Yugo is facing is the ace card of this Duelist in the anime.
"Now, this is getting interesting."
Yugo narrowed his eyes, examining his opponent, especially the "Duel Beast Blind Battler" on the field.
This guy's deck has quite a few good cards, and there's even an unexpected bonus.
