Chapter 981 My personal creed is to do what I say!

"Sorry, Yusei, Jack, I lost~!"

"Don't mind me, you've done a great job breaking Mioina's troublesome Holy Soul ability!"

Taking the relay armband from Crowe, Jack confidently put it on his arm.

"Don't worry, Kro. Even the legendary Red-Eyes Black Dragon will be burned to ashes under the fierce flames of the Red Lotus. The winner of this duel will be us!"

"I'm going!"

After saying this, Jack lowered the visor of his safety helmet, stepped on the accelerator of "Wheel of Fortune", and rushed out of the maintenance station like lightning.

"The second runner of the Satisfaction Alliance has appeared, and he is the former KING - Jack Atlas!" Seeing Jack driving the D-wheel car onto the high-speed track, the host Hiroshi Tsuda's voice was immediately filled with passion and excitement, echoing throughout the entire stadium.

Although some people think that Godwin is deliberately hyping it up, it is undeniable that Jack is indeed one of the top duelists of this era.

Before the Lucky Cup Duel Tournament, he had always sat firmly on the throne of king. This alone was enough to prove his strength.

In addition, after returning victoriously from the battle of Star Island, Jack did not stop moving forward.

In the past six months, he has been constantly practicing and honing his skills. Putting aside some of the tricks, if we only consider the duel level, his strength has risen again and reached a new height.

"Hmph~! Jack, I didn't expect that the contestant in the second round would be you? Very good, I can avenge Sister Shirley for the previous defeat!" Seeing that Jack had caught up with her, Miona's face also showed a strong fighting spirit.

"Really? Well, that depends on whether you have the ability. It's my turn, draw a card!"

Jack LP4000

Miona LP800

【High-speed counting point Jack 5】

【High-speed counting point Miona 6】 (beat points)

Although Kro left behind a Black Feathered Star Shadow Bitter Swordbird and a Black Feathered Blue Flame Shura on his field when he was defeated, because the key monster of this combination, the Black Hawksmith, was missing, for Jack, the role of these two monsters could probably only be used as Synchro Materials.

After all, there is a Red-Eyes Black Dragon with an attack power of 4800 points on Miona's field. Although it is just a white monster without any resistance, it is obviously impossible to defeat this monster by attacking it head-on.

"Humph, a mere Red-Eyes Black Dragon will be burned to ashes in front of my Red Lotus Flame!"

"I Normal Summon Crimson Resonator in Defense Position!" (Attack 600, Defense 200)

First, he summoned a 2-star Resonator Tuner monster to his own field, and then Jack revealed another card.

"The special effect of the Red Lotus Resonator is activated!"

"When this card is successfully summoned, I can Special Summon 1 Level 4 or lower monster from my hand."

"Using this effect, I will Special Summon a Level 400 Tuner Monster, Horizon Resonator, in Defense Position!" (ATK 400, DEF )

Because of the two monsters left on the field by Crow, Jack's Synchro resources are quite sufficient. Based on the principle of being rich and powerful, Jack continues to perform Synchro Summoning.

"A 2-star Red Lotus Resonator and a 4-star monster, Black Feather? Blue Flame Shura's Star Adjustment!"

(2+4=6)

"O Tyrannosaurus born from the burning hell, flap your wings of flames here!"

"Xin Klo summons, descend, dark red rising dragon, attack display!" (Attack power 2100 Defense power 1600)

In a flash of dazzling light, a gigantic dragon monster, its body ablaze with flames, appeared on Jack's field. Its scales shone a dark red light, and the flames spewed from its mouth as if to devour the entire world.

"The special effect of the Dark Red Rising Dragon is activated!"

As Jack finished speaking, the dark red rising dragon on the field roared, as if responding to his order.

"When this monster is successfully Synchro Summoned, I can activate this effect by targeting a Resonator monster in my Graveyard. I can Special Summon that monster. Also, during the turn this effect is activated, I cannot Special Summon a Dragon-Type/Dark Synchro Monster from my Extra Deck."

"Based on this effect, I resurrected the Red Lotus Resonator from the graveyard!"

"The special effect of the Red Lotus Resonator is activated!"

"When this monster is Special Summoned successfully, you can activate this card by targeting 1 face-up monster on the field, and you can restore Life Points equal to that monster's Attack Power!"

"According to this effect, I will target Black Feather Star Shadow Bitter Swordbird and restore 2400 HP!"

Jack LP4000＞6400

"It's not over yet. I'm going to adjust the 2-star Vision Resonator monster and the 6-star Black Feather? Star Shadow Bitter Sword Bird!"

(2+6=8)

"The king will bring a feast of blood. Crimson dragon, leave your claw marks on the battlefield!"

"Synchronous Summon, show yourself, Crimson Demon, attack display!" (Attack 3000 Defense 2000)

The crimson lotus fire burned fiercely in Jack's front court, forming a huge column of fire like a fountain.

In the midst of the raging flames, a dragon monster covered in flames slowly emerged.

Its body was massive and mighty, its scales gleaming red, as if condensed from flames. Every breath it took unleashed a blazing flame that distorted the surrounding air.

This monster was none other than the Crimson Demon, its presence making the entire scene incredibly shocking. Jack stood before it, looking incredibly small, but his eyes revealed a sense of confidence and determination.

"As long as the Crimson Demon card remains on the field, it will be considered a Crimson Dragon!" Jack shouted, his voice clearly audible amid the roar of the flames. These words, like a spell, further unleashed the power of the Crimson Demon.

(Note: Master Duel is translated as Dark Red Demon Dragon, just know that it means the same thing.)

"In addition, the special effect of the Vision Resonator is activated!"

"When this card is sent to the Graveyard, I can add 1 Spell or Trap Card with the name of Crimson Dragon from my Deck to my hand."

"Based on this effect, the card I'm going to add to my hand is the Continuous Trap Card, Crimson Zone!"

Adding a card that popped out of the deck to his hand, Jack continued pointing to his frontcourt.

"The king's tactics are to attack like a raging storm!"

"Next, I'm going to use the 8-star monster Crimson Demon and the 2-star monster Crimson Resonator to adjust the stars!"

(2+8=10)

"Demon King awakened from the abyss, vent your anger here!"

"Synchronous Summon, Yanmo Dragon Crimson Lotus Abyss, Attack Position!" (Attack 3200, Defense 2500) (Original manga effect.)

Boom!

Like the incarnation of the devil, in the red lotus fire of hell, two sharp arm blades suddenly appeared on the left and right sides of the red lotus dragon. Its body was even bigger than before, and its posture was even more ferocious than before!

The new form of the Crimson Dragon that was obtained in the battle of Star Island now appeared in Jack's frontcourt in an invincible manner.

"The special effect of the Crimson Devil is activated!"

"When this monster is sent from the Monster Zone to the Graveyard, I can Special Summon a Crimson Dragon from the Extra Deck as a Synchro Summon. Also, when this card is sent to the Graveyard as Synchro Material for a Dragon-Type Dark Synchro Monster, I can destroy all Attack Position monsters on my opponent's field!"

"Sa, tyrant awakened from hell, leave your claws on the battlefield!"

"Devil's Claw Attack!"

(Note: When this effect is activated, Stardust Dragon cannot use its own effects.)

Click!

Sharp claw marks mixed with crimson lotus fire tore through space, and in this wave of attacks from the crimson demon, the red-eyed black dragon, which had no resistance to the effects, was smashed into pieces on the spot.

After successfully eliminating the monster with the highest attack power on Miona's field, she was now completely exposed to Jack's attack range.

"The shock of the king is here. Behold the roaring power of heaven and earth!"

"Show yourself, my soul! Crimson Dragon!" (Attack 3000, Defense 2500)

Using the special effect of the Crimson Devil, Jack not only cleared the opponent's field, but also summoned the Crimson Dragon again from his extra deck.

"It's not over yet!"

"Yanmo Dragon Crimson Lotus Demon? The monster effect of the Abyss is activated!"

"By liberating a monster on my field, I can Special Summon a monster with the Red Lotus character in its name from the Graveyard!"

"When Crimson Dark Demon is in the Graveyard and on the Field, its card name can be treated as Crimson Demon Dragon. Now, I will Special Summon this monster from the Graveyard at the cost of Dark Red Rising Dragon!"

"Sa, wake up from the graveyard and return to my land!"

"Dark Crimson Demon, attack!"

Not only did he kill the Red-Eyes Black Dragon with an attack power of 4800 points, but he also special summoned three Crimson Dragon monsters with powerful attack power. Facing Miona who only had one face-up card left in the backfield, Jack can be said to have firmly established his advantage at this time.

The situation had reached this point, and the outcome of the duel was clear at a glance. With a smug smile on his face, Jack confidently said to Miona, "Miona, you no longer have any chance of winning. I advise you to be smart and surrender immediately and leave the high-speed track!"

The reason why Jack said this was actually because of Izayoi Aki.

After all, as a very gentlemanly man, Jack didn't want to launch a direct attack on a little girl when he was already sure of victory.

Doing so would not only seem a bit cruel, but also be inconsistent with his usual gentlemanly demeanor.

Therefore, for Jack, letting Miona admit defeat and leave is undoubtedly a wiser and more decent choice.

This way you can avoid unnecessary embarrassment while maintaining your own demeanor, which is killing two birds with one stone.

"Of course I will leave. Of course, I said before that I would avenge Sister Shirley for the blow she took. So, before I leave, please take the damage from this blow."

Turning to Jack with a smile of success, Miona raised her hand to open her backcourt cover card.

"Activate Trap Card, Red-Eyes Incinerate!" (The original anime effect requires the Red-Eyes monster to be destroyed by battle or effect, so the timing is slightly different from the real card.)

Pointing at the face-up card she had just activated, Miona exclaimed, "This card's effect is: When a face-up Red-Eyes monster on your side of the field is destroyed by battle or card effect, you can activate this effect by targeting that destroyed monster. Both players take damage equal to that monster's original ATK."

"My Red-Eyes Black Dragon's original attack power was 4800 when it was destroyed. Therefore, you and I will both receive 4800 points of effect damage!"

"What? 4800 points?" Jack's eyes flashed with disbelief, and he immediately retorted loudly, "Impossible! The original attack power of the Red-Eyes Black Dragon is only 2400 points!"

"It's Red-Eyes Sub-Black Dragon's special effect!" Miona explained on the spot to Jack's objection, "The Red-Eyes Black Dragon Special Summoned with Red-Eyes Sub-Black Dragon's effect increases its original attack power. Now, do you understand?"

Jack: “!!!”

"Damn it! So you've been planning to do this from the beginning?"

"Hehe, my personal creed is to keep my word. Alright, Jack, endure the crimson flames with me!"

Rumble!

As the trap card was activated, Red-Eyes suddenly rushed out of the trap card, its body wrapped in crimson flames. The crimson fire caused by the Red-Eyes Black Dragon, which transformed into a suicide bomb, directly engulfed the two of them.

Miona LP800＞0

Jack LP6400＞1600

"The second round has been decided. Although Miona lost the duel, she managed to inflict a heavy blow to Jack through her tenacious perseverance!" Such an unexpected result! Amidst the audience's cheers, Tsuda Hiro hurriedly announced, "Rozen Maiden's next competitor is about to take the stage. Can Jack withstand the ensuing attack?"

"Sister Shirley, I'll leave it to you from now on!"

"Don't worry, I will not let your efforts go to waste. Besides, I still have an old score to settle with Jack, so I have every reason to win this duel!"

"Alia, bring up my treasured possession. Now, it's time to unseal it!"

"As you command, President!"

As she spoke, Shirley turned her gaze to a girl with a good figure next to her.

As the chief assistant of the Sanctuary Duel Academy Student Union, the girl named Alia knew exactly what her president wanted. She carefully opened the locked suitcase and then respectfully presented Shirley with a wooden square box engraved with patterns of an ancient forest and a strange temple.
