I'm playing cards in Yu-Gi-Oh!

"Trap card 'Little Universe Explosion'!"

You Yu flipped in the backcourt, revealing his ultimate and strongest weapon covering the backcourt!

"When a Dragon-type synchronized monster on your field leaves the field, inflict damage equal to the attack power of that monster to your opponent!"

This is one of Brother Crab's favorite traps in the early stages of the animation, and he always uses it with Stardust Dragon. Even in the first battle with his future wife Izayoi Akira, Brother Crab relied on this card to win the final victory.

But in fact, this effect is the same not only with Stardust Dragon, but also with other monsters in the Stardust system.

Most of the monsters in the Stardust series have the ability to liberate themselves or remove themselves from the game, and then negate a specific effect. By activating an instant chain of "small universe bursts" with a similar effect, you can deal a large amount of damage in one breath.

Like now.

The attack power of the Cosmic Flare Dragon is 4,000. With the effect of "small universe explosion", if you continue to blast like this, there is no doubt that it will kill you instantly with full health!

The brilliance of stardust condensed in mid-air, and the cosmic blaze dragon that had left the scene turned into a translucent shadow and reappeared, like a silver meteor piercing towards Z-ONE!

"The combination of Microcosmic Explosion and Cosmic Flare Dragon is an instant kill combination!!!" the pilot's commentator shouted, "The game has reached a crucial moment!

Will this be the decisive blow for the Duel King? Or......"

"Open the cover card." Z-ONE said, "The trap card 'Half Shield' can halve the value of any form of battle or effect damage.

I halve the damage from the trap card ‘Micro Cosmos Burst’. ” (animation card)

The invisible energy gathered and formed a transparent shield in front of the Z-ONE God. The energy cannonball transformed from the phantom of the Cosmic Flare Dragon broke through the shield, passed through the buffer, and blasted past Z-ONE's life-support device.

The Z-ONE's mechanical device swerved and fell, barely stabilizing the fuselage, and then regained its height.

【Z-ONE，LP 4000 →LP 2000】

"Withstood half of the damage!" the commentator said, "Although it was very thrilling, Z-ONE still managed to deflect this fatal blow..."

But You Yu's side is not over yet, and the exit of the Cosmic Brilliant Dragon has only just begun.

"The effect of 'Wang Family's Temple', the trap I covered on the field can be activated in the turn it is covered!" You Yu raised his hand, "So I opened the cover card, the trap card——

——Gathered prayers! ! ! "

Z-ONE: "!?"

Z-ONE God, who had remained absolutely calm no matter what situation he faced throughout the whole process, was truly shocked this time.

He was impressed by this card.

Among countless reincarnations and countless timelines, there was one time and space in which he traveled back in time and space to try to destroy Shindo Sano, and was finally defeated in a speeding air battle with the savior Fudo Yusei.

At the same time, it was that battle that rekindled his hope for the duelists in the past and for Synchro to open up the future.

In that duel, the first target card that Yusei printed was the ultra-limit acceleration synchro monster "Ryutian Star Dragon", known as the Time Machine God Killer and Z-ONE's lifelong enemy.

At the end of that duel, the real killing of Z-ONE was completed, and the fake card that Yusei printed on the spot that determined the outcome with one hit was the trap launched by Yusei at this time.

Trap Card "Gathering Prayer"!

"The Gathering Prayer can only be activated when there are five or more types of dragon-type synchronized monsters in your graveyard. Special summon a 'Stardust Dragon' from the extra deck as a synchronized monster!"

"Is there any more 'Stardust Dragon'?" Z-ONE said solemnly.

So far, there have been two Stardust Dragons in the game.

The first one is Yu Xing's Stardust Dragon, and the second one is Yu Yu's Star Dust Dragon. Now both dragons are sleeping in Yu Yu's graveyard.

And You Yu actually seems to have a third one in his hand!

"Let the gathered prayers turn into a reborn star of hope and a shining road! Let's fly——

——Stardust Dragon! ! ! "

The stardust radiance spread all over the sky, and the silver-white dragon flew out bathed in the unparalleled brilliance!

Fudo Yusei's first and last ace, the leader of the dragon sealers, Stardust Dragon!

[Stardust Dragon, attack power 2500]

"After summoning Stardust Dragon through this effect, 'Gathering Prayer' can be used as an equipment card to equip Stardust Dragon!" You Yu said, "The equipped monster's attack power will increase the total attack power of all dragon-type synchronized monsters in your graveyard! "

"Nana Nanani!?" The pilot's commentator was shocked in advance, "Since the duel has been going on, all the dragon synchronization monsters in the cemetery, isn't that..."

Points of light flew out from the cemetery one after another, transforming into powerful dragon images that appeared above You Yu's head.

Two Stardust Dragons, Meteor Dragon, Flowing Sky Savior Star Dragon, Shining Dragon Stardust, Savior Star Dragon, Phantom Wing Synchronic Dragon, Crystal Phantom Wing Synchronic Dragon...

[Stardust Dragon, attack power 2500 → attack power 5000 → attack power 7500 → attack power 10800 →... → attack power 26600]

"Attack power...26,600!!!

The commentator at the head of the plane was excited, completely excited, and he jumped directly onto the commentary platform.

"It's unbelievable, it's really unbelievable! Stardust Dragon's attack power actually reached 26,600!!!"

Z-ONE looked up at the ultimate enhanced version of Stardust Dragon, whose attack power exceeded 26,000, with a flash of memory in his eyes.

"A gathering of prayers...?"

The corners of his mouth slightly curled up slightly under the mask.

"But no matter what kind of attack power it has, it is meaningless." He said, "Have you forgotten? I still have the Time Machine God on the field. The Time Machine God will not be destroyed by combat, nor will it take combat damage.

Whether it has an attack power of 20,000 or 200,000, there is no point in attacking it. On the contrary, your monster must eat the backlash of the mechanical god's power..."

"That's not necessarily true." You Yu smiled.

"Um?"

You Yu raised his hand and took another card.

"Quick attack magic 'Energy Reflection'!"

A card was knocked down, and a transparent mechanical mirror appeared in Z-ONE's backcourt. At the same time, the "growing bulb" on the playground turned into a burst of golden light and disappeared.

"Energy Reflection: By liberating a monster on your field, you can give another monster on your field the authority to directly attack during this round.

I released the 'Growing Bulb', and during this round, the 'Stardust Dragon' can make a direct attack! "

"A direct attack with an attack power of 26,600!!!" the pilot's commentator shouted.

If this continues, even the gods will be wiped out, right?

Z-ONE's expression also changed slightly.

"Bypassing the God of Time and directly inflicting damage?"

"That's right, no matter how powerful the Time Machine God is, there are limits to the duelist who can control the Time Machine God. Then just defeat the duelist!

Fighting, direct attack from ‘Stardust Dragon’…”

"That's not possible." Z-ONE interrupted, "Open the cover card and use the trap card 'Destruction Wheel'!

Destroy a monster on the field, and both parties will simultaneously suffer damage equal to that monster's attack power! ” (old version effect)

The huge mechanical arm pointed at Stardust Dragon, which was charging up to release "Sonic Shooting".

"I use the effect of 'Destruction Wheel' to destroy your 'Stardust Dragon', and both parties will suffer damage equal to its attack power at the same time!"
