Who let him play Yu-Gi-Oh!

"The effect of the Black Core removes 'Hero of Destiny - The Doctrine' from the game!"

The twisted black core radiated dark lightning, as if even the space was distorted by the leaping electric light.

The energy released from the core became stronger and stronger until it completely engulfed the Doctrine Man on the Amity Field. The Doctrine Man's body began to twist and spin, like a piece of paper being stirred, and was sucked into the dark vortex along with the rotating electric current until it disappeared without a trace.

"Heh, because my attack is sealed, you want to use this to continuously reduce my health?"

The bishop sneered.

"But this tactic doesn't work for me!"

The church members nearby also laughed and echoed.

"It seems that professional star players are only this good."

"You should go home as soon as possible, you little brat!"

"I am vulnerable in front of the Bishop!"

“.”

Ed seemed to be oblivious to the series of trash talk and still maintained a calm smile.

"If you think that 'Black Core' is just an offensive means, then you are too naive." A golden light burst out from the Bishop's graveyard, and he slowly showed the card in the graveyard, "This is the card I discarded when I activated 'Black Core' just now.

Zeta Reticuli! "

The bishop showed the monster card in his hand, and at the same time, a phantom of an alien with huge claws and covered with purple crystals flashed across the field.

"Zeta Starman's effect: While this card is in the Graveyard, whenever a monster on your opponent's field is removed from play, you can Special Summon an Extraterrestrial Life Token on your field.

Because I just banished 'Destiny Hero: The Righteous One', I Special Summoned 'Extraterrestrial Life Token'!"

[Extraterrestrial Life Derivative, Defense 500]

"Then use the effect of another Zeta Reticuli card in your hand!" the Bishop continued, "Zeta can be Special Summoned from your hand by offering the Extraterrestrial Life Token on the field as a Tribute.

So I offer the tokens on the field as a sacrifice, the star angel from the outer world, descending here -

——Zeta Reticuli, call you! "

A purple beam of light descended from the sky, condensing into several crystals suspended in midair. Then, based on the crystals, a transparent body began to condense and take shape, until it transformed into the image of an angry alien, waving its claws in the air.

[Zeta Reticuli, attack power 2400]

"While banishing my monsters, I'm also paving the way for my trump card to appear. I see." Ed understood. "Mainly banishing monsters to clear the board, is this your deck?"

The Bishop sneered: "This will also be the last deck you ever fight against as a duelist.

I then Flip Summon the monster that was face-down from the previous turn.

Reverse summon 'Death Camel'!"

[Death Camel, Attack Power 500]

"When Death Camel is successfully Reverse Summoned, I draw a card from my deck."

The Bishop draws a card.

“And then there was the fight!

Zeta Reticuli, attack the 'Hero of Destiny, the Stubborn'! "

The Zeta alien roared, as if he could no longer suppress his anger, and suddenly grabbed the stubborn man with his sharp claws.

Ed showed no sign of weakness: "Then activate the trap 'D-Shield'!

When a Destiny Hero in Attack Position on your field is attacked, turn this card into an Equip Card and equip that monster.

I equipped the 'D-Shield' to 'Destiny Hero·Stubborn'! "

The stubborn man who got the trap equipment immediately crouched down and switched from offense to defense. In addition, countless stones floated up in front of him, like a floating shield hanging in front of him.

"A monster equipped with 'D-Shield' changes to Defense Position." Ed said, "Also, the equipped monster cannot be destroyed in battle!"

[Destiny Hero: Stubborn Man, Defense 800]

The Zeta alien's full-strength attack hit the stubborn man, but the white claws were simply bounced away by the floating shield and did not cause any damage.

"Tsk, can't we destroy it by fighting?" the bishop curled his lips.

This way, he was blocked from attacking in disguise. Unless he used a monster with defense-penetrating effect, he couldn't deal any damage as long as the stubborn man was present.

"Then the battle phase is over." The bishop said, "But I still need to activate the effect of 'Death Camel'.

Once per turn, this card can be actively changed back to face-down Defense Position.

The Death Camel dropped back to the ground, turning back into a face-down card.

When neither side can attack, the Death Camel becomes a card-earning artifact that can reverse once every round and draw a card.

"Finally, a card is placed face down, and the round ends."

"It's my turn, draw a card!" said Ed, "The effect of 'Destiny Hero Diamond Man' from last turn.

The magic card drawn by Diamond Man's effect can activate its effect this turn."

A golden light burst out from his graveyard, and the shadow of the magic card from the previous round appeared in the air.

"The magic card I drew last turn was 'Treasure of Adversity'.

The effect of this card is that when the opponent has a Special Summoned Monster on the field and I have no monsters on the field, I draw two cards from my deck.

The bishop said: "But you have 'Hero of Destiny - The Stubborn Man' on your field."

"I know."

Ed chuckled.

"But the effect of Diamond Man is that the effect of activating that magic card is just an 'effect' and the activation cost can be ignored.

So I just draw two cards from my deck."

Ed draws two cards and then shows one of them directly.

"Quick Play Spell 'Burial from Another Dimension' returns up to three monster cards removed from play by both players to the Graveyard."

Bishop: "Now only one monster is removed from the game"

"Yes, I will return 'Hero of Destiny - Doctrinaire' to the graveyard!" said Ed, "and then activate the Continuous Trap 'Call of the Living Dead' to revive the monsters in the graveyard.

I resurrected the 'Fated Hero, the Righteous One' from the graveyard!"

Of course, if it is a real card Doctrine, this operation cannot be performed. The real card Doctrine can only be Special Summoned by sacrificing three Destiny Heroes, and it cannot be resurrected from the graveyard even if it has been officially played. However, just like the Elemental Hero Fusion Monster in the tenth generation of the anime, the Doctrine has its resurrection restrictions lifted after being officially played, and can be Special Summoned by other means.

"Come back to me, hero of destiny - the righteous man!"

[Destined Hero: The Righteous One, Attack Power 3400]

The bishop gritted his teeth.

"This broken hero isn't finished yet, is he?"

But he quickly calmed down.

"But the effect of 'Light Sealing Sword' is still there, and it's only your second turn now. Even if you recall your trump card, you still can't attack this turn."

"Ah, I know."

Ed smiled.

"So I then summoned 'Destiny Hero: Killer'."

[Destiny Hero: Kill with a kill, defense 1700]

Ed: "Deduct the effect of killing, send the 'Destiny Hero' in your hand to the graveyard, and deal 500 points of damage to the opponent!"

He sent a card to the grave, dunked the killer and flew up, blasting a ball of light out of his hand with a slam dunk-like movement, which exploded directly in the bishop's face.

"Ugh!"

【Bishop, LP2000 → LP1500】

The bishop's face changed slightly, and he began to feel uneasy.

Damn it. I'm not going to be burned to death before the light ban ends, am I?
