Chapter 322 Provocation (Ch 322)

“Okay, then it’s my turn, draw a card!”
The morale of the Tenth Generation remains undiminished.
The undead frowned.
The Ouija board was his favorite tactic, not only because it was easy to use, but also because he liked to watch his opponents being pushed into desperate situations step by step, from futile struggles to powerless despair, gradually losing their minds and finally falling into the abyss in the face of death that was visibly approaching.
He enjoys seeing his opponents struggle.
But today, even after the fight has gotten to this point, the boy’s fighting spirit has not diminished at all… No, or it should be said that the more adversity he faces, the stronger his fighting spirit becomes?
After thinking for a while, he couldn’t help but ask: “You… aren’t you afraid?”
“Ah?” Judai was stunned, “What are you afraid of?”
What are you afraid of? Is that even a question?
The dead spirit felt that this person was mentally ill: “Anyone who loses a duel in this barrier will lose their soul. Don’t you know that?”
“Oh, I know about that.” Judai nodded. “If you’re asking if I’m afraid of death… Of course I am. Dying is so scary. If I die, I won’t have another chance to duel, right?”
Undead: “…”
No, I think you got the point wrong…
“But compared to that, I’m currently in a fierce duel with a legendary out-of-print deck.” Judai chuckled, “You don’t have time to be afraid when you’re doing something so fun, right?”
Undead: “…………”
What are you talking about? I don’t seem to understand.
He was now certain that this man had something wrong with his brain.
This is already a card-playing obsession to the point where his logic is confused, right?
“Besides, even though you said we’d die if we lose, wouldn’t it be nice if we win?” Judai said carelessly.
“Oh, what a joke. This is your last round. If all the death information is collected at the end of the round, you will lose. How can you win in this situation?”
“I don’t know.” Judai said frankly.
Undead: “?”
“It’s more interesting because we don’t know. Even now I don’t know how to break through this situation.” Judai’s eyes showed excitement, “But duels are fun like this. Who knows what will happen next?”
Undead: “???”
No, it seems even harder for me to understand when you put it that way…
“First, let me give you this card, the magic card ‘Fusion Birth’!” (Original card)
Judai plays the magic card in his hand.
“Send five cards from the top of your deck to the Graveyard. If there are Fusion Materials that meet the requirements, you can use those materials to perform a Fusion Summon on a Fusion Monster!”
The dead spirit frowned: “Is it completely up to luck…”
“It’s not luck, it’s strength. I’m still very confident in my ability to draw cards.” Judai was full of confidence, “Although I don’t know what these five cards will turn out, but I always believe in my deck!
Draw a card!
Five consecutive draws in one breath.
Judai’s eyes lit up and he immediately showed two of them.
“‘Elemental Hero Bubble Man’, and the monster ‘Demon King of the Swamp’ that has the ability to replace any fusion material!” Judai said, “I will use ‘Demon King of the Swamp’ to replace ‘Elemental Hero Wing Man’, and fuse it with ‘Elemental Hero Bubble Man’!
Heroes who harness the wings of wind and possess the power of water, combine your powers…
——Elemental Hero Sailor Man, Fusion Summon!”
[Elemental Hero Sailor Man, attack power 1400]
“Sailor Man?” The Undead asked in confusion.
A fusion hero with only 1400 attack power…
“I cover a card from my hand to the backfield.” Judai smiled, “The effect of ‘Elemental Hero Sailor Man’. When Sailor Man is covered by a card in his Spell or Trap Zone, this card can directly attack the opponent’s player.”
The undead suddenly realized: “I see. Since you can’t defeat Marshmallow, you choose to bypass the front line of defense and attack me directly.”
He paused, then chuckled, “However, Sailor Man’s attack power is only 1400. Even if he attacks directly, I still have 1100 health points left.
As long as you cannot defeat me in this round, it will be your defeat…”
“I know. But the ones that ‘Fusion Birth’ just sent to the cemetery weren’t just Bubble Man and the Demon King of the Swamp.”
As Judai spoke, a translucent shadow of a hero appeared behind him.
Elemental hero: Dark Necromancer.
“I just threw down ‘Elemental Hero: Dark Necromancer’. When this card is in the Graveyard, I can only have one chance to summon a higher-level monster of ‘Elemental Hero’ without a sacrifice.”
Judai took another picture of the monster in his hand.
“So I don’t need to sacrifice to Normal Summon Elemental Hero Golden Blade!”
[Elemental Hero: Golden Blade, Attack Power 2600]
The dead spirit’s expression changed slightly: “The effect of this guy…”
“Yes, the Elemental Hero Golden Blade can deal penetrating damage when attacking a defending monster.” Judai said, “Even if the monster cannot be destroyed, the battle damage can still be calculated as usual!”
Marshmallow’s defense is 500, and the Golden Blade Man’s attack on Marshmallow will cause 2100 piercing damage. Add to that the direct attack of the Sailor Man, and the two attacks can cause a huge output of 3500 in one breath.
[Dead Soul, LP 2500]
“I see, this way the output can indeed be achieved. But did you forget something…”
The undead narrowed his eyes.
“Both the Golden Blade and the Sailor Man are above four stars. They cannot attack under the restriction of the ‘Super Gravity Net’.”
“Of course I know.” Judai said, “So activate the face card, Trap Card ‘Nullify Trap’. In this way, all traps on the field except this card will be invalidated for this turn.”
“Hahahaha!” The undead laughed. “Beautiful, very good struggle! In this situation, you can make such a counterattack in the last round… You are good, much stronger than I expected.”
His expression became even more hideous and distorted under that wild laughter.
“That’s exactly what makes it a more delicious prey!
Then before ‘Nullify Trap’ takes effect, chain this card to activate the Trap Card ‘Provocation’!
This card can only be activated during the Main Phase 1 of your opponent’s turn. Select a monster on your field. As long as the selected monster is on the field, when your opponent attacks this turn, they can only target the selected monster!
“Huh?” Judai was stunned.
It can only attack certain monsters, which means…
He looked at Marshmallow.
“Hahaha, good. Therefore, this round, your ‘Elemental Hero Sailor Man’ cannot attack directly. You can only attack my ‘Marshmallow’.”
The undead chuckled.
“When Sailor Man attacks a defending monster, there is no penetration effect, so I will only receive 2100 points of penetration damage from Blade Man, and my health will be 400 points left.
And you have no other means of attack.”
This trap forces him to defeat Marshmallow first.
“It’s really hard for you to work so hard, Judai-san. With only a five-card blind pile of ‘Fusion Birth’, you managed to make such a desperate counterattack in one go… No wonder you said you were confident in drawing cards. I understand now.
You may indeed be a duelist with top talent.”
The dead spirit laughed grimly.
“But it’s no use. All your struggles are meaningless and only make your desperate process more exciting.
At the end of this round, the death message on the Ouija board will be complete, and you will have no chance! ”
Judai: “Ah, that does seem to be a bit troublesome…”
“…That’s not necessarily true.”
The sound came from one side of the two men. During the duel, both of them subconsciously looked in the direction of the sound.
The undead’s pupils suddenly contracted when he saw who was coming.
Fujiki…Yugen?
