Chapter 877: OTK Has Its Limits
Time flies by, and in the blink of an eye, Judai's first year at Duel Academy has come to an end.
For Judai and his friends, this just meant that they were one year older and had entered a new grade. But for third-year graduates, this also meant farewell.
If it were placed in an ordinary school, outstanding graduates would have to have a stage to give a speech. But it was clear that this was not an ordinary school.
It was said that this custom was left by Seto Kaiba, one of the founders. The academy had a dueling arena for both big and small matters. The content of the teaching assessment was card playing, and extracurricular entertainment activities were also card playing. Conflicts between classmates were solved by playing cards, and leadership decisions were made by playing cards. Playing cards during festivals, school activities, and school trips must also have a card-playing theme
Under this background, it was conceivable that the graduation of third-year students would definitely involve playing cards.
The outstanding student representative with the highest score among the graduates would select the person he most wished to fight with among the current students, and the two parties would perform a duel to see off the graduates. This was the rule of the duel academy.
This year's outstanding graduate representative, without any doubt, was of course Ryo Marufuji, known as "Kaiser".
And of course, the student designated by Ryo Marufuji was the first-year Yuki Judai.
So at the end of the graduation ceremony, the theme naturally evolved into a card game between Judai and Ryo.
"Judai, I am different today than I was in the past." Ryo Marufuji was full of fighting spirit. "Speaking of which, I must thank you. The experience of losing to you last time allowed me to complete my transformation! That is the change I can never achieve with my own strength!
I am completely different now! Thanks to you, I have been able to expand my vision that have been limited until now and touch a new realm that I could not see in the past! "
"Oh? You look so awesome!"
Judai obviously didn't understand, but he felt Kaiser's fighting spirit and momentum, and couldn't help but look forward to it with excitement.
For Judai, as long as there were cards to play, that's enough.
"Duel!" x2
Judai, LP 4000
Ryo Marufuji, LP 4000
Almost all the teachers and students of the school gathered at the academy's duel field, full of expectations for the collision between the two strongest students in the academy.
The first was the decision of which player would go first. It's just a bit unfortunate for Ryo-san. As a Cyber Dragon player, he got the first turn
But it didn't matter.
Ryo Marufuji was completely different now from the past. Even if going first attack was extremely disadvantageous for Cyber Dragon, he has prepared countermeasures!
Ryo drew a card, and normal summoned "Cyber Dragon Core" in Defense Position, and then activated its effect to add 1 "Cyber" Spell/Trap from the Deck to his hand.
Then he waved his hand and ser two cards.
Judai looked at Marufuji's Cyber Dragon Core that looked like a miscellaneous fish on the field, and then looked at the two set cards in the back row. For a moment, he instinctively felt that there was something wrong.
According to Yuei Vu-sensei's teachings, he would try his best to understand his opponent before any duel began. Not to mention developing a set of targeted strategies, you must at least be aware of the enemy's common tactics and the effects of the ace monsters.
So based on experience, shouldn't Kaiser perform a four-for-one exchange and bring out the Cyber End Dragon as the first mover?
Looking back now, Ryo Marufuji's arrangement did not look like the Kaiser that everyone is familiar with, but instead looked like Yuki Judai!
Very strange.
However, it was still necessary to play the cards. Next up was Judai's turn. This time our Judai started to summon the model worker duo who followed Yuei Vu in Duel City Solid Soldier and Blazeman.
First, he summoned Solid Soldier, and then Solid Soldier's effect could special summon Blazeman in the hand. Then the effect of Blazeman retrieved a "Polymerization" from the deck.
Ryo Marufuji narrowed his eyes slightly as he watched his position pull out the fusion spell from the deck.
Is it really coming? Launch an attack with your best fusion in one go
Judai did as he expected and waved his hand to indicate that he would Fusion Summon now!
"Fuse the Elemental HERO Blazeman' and Elemental HERO Solid Soldier' on the field! Fusion Summon! Come, Elemental HERO Nova Master'!"
The hero of the two elements of fire and earth merged. The hero emerged from the vortex and appeared handsomely wearing red and gold armor!
[Elemental HERO Nova Master, ATK 2600]
"Then there is the effect of Elemental HERO Solid Soldier'! When this card is sent from the Monster Zone to the GY by a Spell effect, the Elemental HERO Blazeman' in the graveyard is Special Summoned in defense position."
[Elemental HERO Blazeman, DEF 1800]
"Battle!" Judai said, "Elemental HERO Nova Master, attack!"
And even at this lightning juncture, Marufuji's set card in the backcourt had already flipped over
Trap Card Cybernetic Overflow!
Cybernetic Overflow, commonly known as "Cerebral Hemorrhage", could remove a "Cyber Dragon" from the game, directly causing the opponent player to suffer a sudden cerebral hemorrhage (crossed out)
"Banish Cyber Dragon(s)' with different Levels from my hand, face-up field, and/or GY, then destroy an equal number of cards the opponent controls!" Ryo Marufuji explained.
This effect was quite impressive. One was because it did not limit the number of cards that could be blown up as long as you had enough ammunition, you could blow up all the cards on the opponent's field in one go. The other was because it was easy to see from the description that this card nuking effect did not target.
Judai was stunned for a moment: "But there is no Cyber Dragon' on your field or in the GY."
"When Cyber Dragon Core' exists on the field or in the graveyard, its name can be treated as Cyber Dragon'." Ryo Marufuji explained, "So I banish Cyber Dragon Core' and destroy your Elemental HERO Nova Master'!"
The Cyber Dragon Core disappeared from the field as the cost of activation, and the dazzling electric light flew out of the trap card, blasting the powerful Elemental HERO into pieces!
The higher-level Elemental HERO hurriedly exited the stage before he could gain a firm foothold, causing an uproar in the audience.
"Damn, Marufuji didn't summon Cyber End Dragon when he started!" Definitely from a screwball player.
Someone in the forum watching the live broadcast has already started posting in real-time.
"Ryo Marufuji; Judai, the more I play with Cyber Dragon, the more I realize that OTK has its limits!"
"Judai: What do you want to say, Kaiser!?"
"Ryo Marufuji (takes out the Cerebral Hemorrhage): I won't do OTK anymore, Judai!"
""
Judai's side had a bad start. The hero from his three-for-one exchange had fallen and he suffered huge losses.
But it didn't matter.
A true duelist must be able to lose all his cards as if nothing happened, and then be able to charge them back the next round while talking and laughing, as if by magic.
"The Continuous Spell Mirage of Nightmares' is activated. This card allows me to draw cards until I have 4 cards in my hand.
Set three cards, I end my turn! "
Judai only had one Blazeman in the front row, but he had three set cards in the back row, which made Ryo Marufuji frown.
Hiss~ Three set cards in the back row, one more than me!
It seems that I still have a lot of room for improvement
