Chapter 598: Playing cards in Yangshou!

"What? You actually gave me your monster? Why does this way of duel give me a very familiar feeling?" After losing 1000 health points inexplicably, Jonouchi touched his chin and fell into thought, and immediately realized that the other party was obviously not so kind.

"Tsk~! I can't attack in the first round, so I choose to attack!"

"Humph, as expected!"

Raising his hand, he threw the two monsters that popped out of the graveyard onto the grounds within the city. Saiou Takuma couldn't help but grin and said, "Mystical Power 3? The Empress' special effect is activated!"

"When this monster is successfully summoned, you can flip a coin once. If it is facing up, it gains the effect of the positive position. If it is facing down, it gains the effect of the reverse position."

(Note: The summoning of the original Mystic Force monsters includes Special Summoning, Reverse Summoning, and Normal Summoning. In order to avoid reading fatigue, the Mystic Force monsters that appear below will be explained according to the effects that appear in the original. In addition, some effects are slightly different from the OCG text. All the original effects are used as the basis here.)

"What? Is it a monster that determines the effect by flipping a coin?"

Just as Jonouchi suddenly realized what was going on, Saiou grinned and explained, "Mystery Force 3? Empress's two special effects are, in upright position, every time the opponent's monster is Normal Summoned, you can Normal Summon a monster with Mystery Force in its name from your hand to your field. As for reverse position, every time the opponent's monster is Normal Summoned, the controller of this monster must send a card from his hand to the Graveyard."

"Of course, in this case, the power of the arcane 3? The Empress will undoubtedly be in the reverse position!" (Attack 1300 Defense 1300)

Real card effect!

"Boiled!"

Looking down at his own hand, Jonouchi had not expected that the opponent would actually use this method to reduce his hand cards.

"Hehehe! Mystical Power 1? Magicians also have the same special effect!" (Attack Power 1100 Defense Power 1100)

Real card effect!

"When this monster is successfully summoned, you also need to flip a coin. In the upright position, when the magic card is activated, the original attack power of this card will be doubled until the end of that turn. As for the reverse position, each time the magic card is activated, it can restore 2 life points for the opponent."

"As for the position of this monster, haha, there is no doubt that it will also be in the reverse position!"

Jonouchi: "!!!"

Damn it?

There were two reverse sides in a row on my field!

This guy seems to have something!

I couldn't believe that this guy called Saiou was actually the same type of duelist as me?

Bah Bah!

What type of duelist are you? I will never associate with a guy like you who relies on his shitty luck to play cards!

That's right!

Having long made up his mind to change his fixed image in the duel circle, Jonouchi would not use gambling cards easily now. Although it was really cool when the effects were activated, it would inevitably cause criticism if he always relied on this method to turn the tables.

Haven't you seen that every time he played cards with Kaiba Seto, the other party always accused him of cheating, so that every time he saw him, he looked down on him. As a real duelist, Jonouchi naturally wanted to try his best to prove himself and change the negative impression of the world that he was a metaphysical duelist.

With a sinister smile, he showed a card to Jonouchi, and Saiou Takuma said loudly: "Activate magic card, Holy Grail Ace!" (Note: Actually it is the trump card Holy Grail.)

"The effect of this card is to flip a coin. If the face appears, I can draw two cards from my deck. If the face appears, the other player can draw two cards from their deck."

"At the same time, at this moment, due to the effect of Arcane Power 1? Magician, every time a magic card is activated, I can recover 500 health points."

"Of course, this time the effect will be positive without any surprises!"

Saiou Takuma LP4000＞4500

Ding!

The virtual coin bounced from the hand of the King, and when it landed at the sea level, the front side of the picture appeared without any surprise.

Two cards were drawn from the deck, and this coin toss undoubtedly made the King even more proud. The trajectory of the Wheel of Fortune could no longer be changed, and all of this was obviously an inevitable result.

"Tsk! What's there to be proud of!" He crossed his arms with an expression of extreme contempt. In Jonouchi's opinion, Saiou probably had never seen what it felt like to flip a coin to the front in his life. Otherwise, how could he be so excited?

"Jounouchi, you're not trying to say that you were just lucky this time?" As if guessing what Jounouchi was thinking, Saiou slowly raised his hand and revealed another Ace of the Holy Grail.

Yes, because of the card drawing effect just now, Sai Wang drew another Holy Grail Ace. As if to show off deliberately, Sai Wang put it directly on the duel disk without any hesitation.

"The effect of the Ace of the Holy Grail is activated, of course, it will be in the positive position!"

The "pot of greed" mentioned by Sister Shui has turned into a real pot of greed. It has to be said that Zhai Wang's actions are really confusing to some extent.

"Haha, the predetermined fate really cannot be changed!"

"According to the effect, I can continue to draw two cards!"

"At the same time, because of the activation of the magic card, I continue to recover 500 health points!"

Saiou Takuma LP4500＞5000

Noticing that Jonouchi's expression was getting uglier, the Sai Ou grinned and said, "Jonouchi, I gave you the monster before, but it wasn't without cost. The follow-up effect of the undead sacrifice is activated!"

"I can reduce the number of sacrifices I need when I normally summon according to the number of monsters I give to the opponent. Because I gave you two monsters, this monster will need two fewer sacrifices when it is normally summoned!"

"Come and witness the ultimate power of this mystical ritual!"

"Arcane Power 21? The World!" (Attack 3100 Defense 3100)

He shouted loudly and raised the card in his hand high above his head with extremely exaggerated movements. Accompanied by white light and storm, a huge monster that looked like a steel mecha appeared on the sea level.

I have to say that Saiou's shout of "Zhawaludo" was absolutely true to himself. Even Jonouchi, whose brain cells have always been slow, got goosebumps inadvertently.

"Hehe, The World also has a powerful special effect. There is no doubt that the appearance of this monster is also in the positive position! In addition, because I Normal Summoned a monster, because of the Queen's effect, you need to send a card in your hand to the Graveyard!"

Click!

Just as Sai Wang said, it stopped at the right position. Sai Wang laughed triumphantly, and Jonouchi's mouth couldn't help but twitch violently.

Based on the established facts, Jonouchi has already confirmed that this guy named Saiou Takuma is obviously not an ordinary charlatan.

Apart from the fact that the two cards given to him both had negative effects, being able to throw out three positive cards in a row obviously still had great value.

Especially since he can reduce the opponent's hand cards while normally summoning monsters. Judging from the current duel concept, Saiou undoubtedly has enough capital to be arrogant.

"Hmph, reduce the cards in your hand? Very good, then it's as you wish!" With an obvious arc on the corner of his mouth, Jonouchi raised his hand and threw a card into the graveyard.

"Haha, now I want to cover a card..."

"Wait a minute!" Raising his hand to stop Saiou, Jonouchi sneered, "I'm going to activate the effect of the card right now."

"The special effect of the Komodo Dragon in the graveyard is activated."

"This card's card name can only be activated once per turn. Its effect is, when sent to the Graveyard, I can Special Summon a Dragon-Type monster from my hand!"

"Using this effect, I will Special Summon Red-Eyes Sub-Black Dragon from my hand in Attack Position!" (ATK 2400 DEF 2000)

"Oh, so you used the discard card effect to Special Summon a subspecies of Red-Eyes Black Dragon from your hand? Hmph, I've heard of it before, but I didn't expect you to have such a rare card in your possession!"

"Hehe, of course. After all, the Red-Eyes series cards are my soul cards!"

As if he had expected Jonouchi's reaction, Saiou shook his head and said, "It doesn't matter, Jonouchi. Your defeat will not change because of a card. Now, I will cover my backcourt with a card and end my turn."

"Very good, now it's my turn to take action. Draw a card!"

After taking a glance at the two Ritual Monsters in front of him, Jonouchi knew that he must not leave these two traitors on his field.

"I will sacrifice the power of the mysteries on my field, the magician and the empress, and then summon the True Red Soul, defense position!" (Attack 900 Defense 2000)

"Oh, it's actually a new red-eyed monster. What a pity! Even if a new monster is summoned, it seems that it is no match for the world!"

"Hehe~! Is that really the case? Then let's wait and see!"

As he spoke, he showed a card and said loudly, "Activate magic card, Ruby Treasure Card!"

"You can only activate this card once per turn. Its effect is that you can send a seven-star monster with the Red-Eyes character from your hand to the Graveyard. After that, I can draw two cards from my deck. In addition, after this effect is activated, I can also send a seven-star Red-Eyes monster from my deck to the Graveyard."

"According to this effect, I will send the Seven-Star Effect Monster Red-Eyes Black Flame Dragon from my hand to the Graveyard, and then send the Normal Monster Red-Eyes Black Dragon from my Deck to the Graveyard."

(Note: The names of the monsters in the Red-Eyes series are a little hard to distinguish, so I will try to be as detailed as possible here.)

"Hehe, the preparations are over. You charlatan, come and see how powerful Master Jonouchi is!"

With a wave of his hand, he pointed to the world of the power of the secret ritual 21?, and Jonouchi said domineeringly: "Let's fight!"

"Red-Eyes Sub-Black Dragon, attack the Mystical Power 21? World!"

"Red Lotus Flame Bomb!"

With a flash of surprise in his eyes, Saiou said calmly, "What? You actually used a Red-Eyes Sub-Black Dragon with an attack power of only 2400 points to launch an attack? Jonouchi, you must be aware that the attack power of this monster is not comparable to that of the Mystic Power 21? World, right?"

"No, that's fine!"

Seeing his Red-Eyes Sub-Black Dragon and the Mystic Force 21? World colliding with each other, without any surprise, he hit back the Red-Eyes Sub-Black Dragon's fire bomb, and the monster was directly turned into pieces.

Jonouchi LP3000＞2300

"Hmph, Red-Eyes Black Dragon's special effect is activated!"

"If this monster is destroyed by battle or an opponent's card effect, I can activate this effect by targeting a Level 2 or lower Red-Eyes monster in my Graveyard other than Red-Eyes Sub-Black Dragon, and I can Special Summon that monster. If the monster Special Summoned by this effect is Red-Eyes Black Dragon, its original ATK is doubled."

"Now, I will target the Red-Eyes Black Dragon in the Graveyard with its effect, and Special Summon this monster!"

"Come on, unyielding crimson dragon, answer my call and show yourself now!"

"True red-eyed black dragon, attack position!" (Attack 4800, Defense 2000)

A deafening dragon roar appeared on the sea level. Following the call from Jonouchi, a black dragon with black light shining all over its body appeared before the world.

"Yoshi, Jonouchi, well done!"

"Haha, isn't this a matter of course? After all, I am in the Flame Man Castle!"

Laughing triumphantly, Jonouchi raised his finger and pointed at Saiou again.

"The battle continues, Red-Eyes Black Dragon, attack the Mystical Power 21 World directly!"

"Black Flame Bullet!"

Bang!

The huge fireball hit the world of Mystical Power 21 directly without any hindrance. The violent explosion resounded across the sea level, and the strong airflow caused the two speedboats to shake violently again.

The Power of the Mystery 21? The world was blown into pieces by a huge fireball, and the fierce wind pressure formed by the power of the elves made King Sai hurriedly raise his hands to protect his head.

Saiou Takuma LP5000＞3300

"Haha, this duel ends here!"

Laughing loudly, he raised his hand and pointed at another monster on his field. Jonouchi continued, "The special effect of the True Crimson Soul is activated!"

"During your or your opponent's turn, you can target a Red-Eyes Black Dragon on your field and activate this effect, inflicting damage equal to the original attack power of that monster to your opponent."

"Red-Eyes Black Dragon's original attack power is now 4800 points, so you will continue to receive the same amount of damage!"

"Did you see that? This is Jonouchi's one-shot kill. Now, just give in and lose!"

"Black Flame Bullet!"

The huge dragon beak opened, and hot breath began to condense in the mouth of the Red-Eyes Black Dragon. It felt like the fire of hell was boiling!

With a roar, a pitch-black fireball spurted out from the dragon's mouth with unparalleled momentum and power, like a burning sun, shining with a heart-pounding light.

Facing Saiou Takuma, who had only 3300 health points left, this black flame bomb could definitely seal the victory on the spot. However, just when the black flame bomb was about to hit Saiou Takuma, he suddenly grinned grimly.
