My turn... Draw a card! Yuuki looked at the newly drawn card—Awakening of the Saiyan God! The ultimate card that appeared during the final battle against the Shadow!
"Activate the Spell Card: Saiyan God Awakening!" Yuki's voice trembled with excitement. "When a Saiyan monster on the field is destroyed and your Life Points are below 3000, you can Special Summon Saiyan God (ATK?) from your Deck or Extra Deck!"
A golden light descended from the sky, and Sun Wukong reappeared. This time, however, his hair was fiery red, and he was surrounded by a divine aura. His attack power was displayed as ?.
The Saiyan God's attack power, Yuki shouted, is equal to the sum of the original attack power of the destroyed monsters plus the number of Saiyan monsters in my graveyard multiplied by 1000!
墓地中有孙悟空、贝吉塔和贝吉特三只怪兽(2000+2400+4500=8900)，加上三只赛亚人(×1000)，攻击力达到11900！
An incredulous gasp erupted from the audience. Seto Kaiba jumped to his feet from the judges' box, his eyes wide with shock.
Battle! Saiyan God's direct attack! God's Kamehameha!
Activate the Trap Card Spell Cylinder! The game immediately flips the card face down, reflecting the attack!
"It's useless!" Yuki said firmly. "The Saiyan God's effect is that he will not be affected by any card effects!"
The torrent of energy passed through the magic cylinder without hindrance, striking Yugi directly. The Duel King closed his eyes in a dazzling light, his life points dropping from 1700 to zero.
"The victor... Yuki!" Seto Kaiba announced, his voice filled with an unusual sense of awe.
Three seconds of silence followed, then thunderous applause and cheers erupted. The Millennium Puzzle emitted a warm glow, and Yugi emerged from it, extending his hand to Yuki: "A magnificent duel. You deserve the title of King of Duels."
Yuki grasped the game's hand and suddenly felt a strange movement coming from the deck (Norde). Seven mysterious cards flew out automatically, arranged in a circle in the air, and opened a portal that shone with golden light.
这 是
"A door to your world," the game says with a smile, "but you must make a choice—to return to your original world, or to stay here as a Duel King's Challenger?"
Yuuki turned to look at the audience—Jounouchi, Erika, Gen Amamiya... all his comrades-in-arms were waving at him. The Saiyan deck in his hands was slightly warm, as if it too was expressing its reluctance to part.
Taking a deep breath, Yuuki stepped towards the portal, turning around at the last moment before entering and raising the Duel King trophy high:
I will build a bridge between the two worlds! The story of the Saiyan deck... has only just begun!
Chapter 359 Saiyan's Near-Death Breakthrough
The heatwave rippled across the yellow sand, creating transparent waves. Yuki squinted, sweat trickling down his temples. He had no idea how he'd suddenly been transported from his university archaeological field trip to this godforsaken place—the ruins of an Egyptian temple half-buried in the sand dunes. Even more bizarrely, standing opposite him was a character straight out of the Yu-Gi-Oh! manga: Malik Ishtar, with his dark skin and gleaming golden eyes, his thousand-year-old staff gleaming ominously in the blazing sun.
Another duelist sent to his death. Malik's voice seemed to come from the abyss, a wide grin spreading across his face. "Your soul will be a fine sacrifice."
Yuuki looked down at the Duel Disk he had somehow put on, and the unfamiliar deck in his hand. This wasn't his deck—the top card depicted a man with spiky black hair, wearing a blue battle suit, and the card's name was clearly written as "[Saiyan Prince Vegeta]".
Looks like you enjoy daydreaming. Malik's already set up his Duel Disk, so let me go first! Draw!
Yuki's heart pounded, but a strange intuition calmed him down. He took a deep breath and drew five starting cards into his hand. The cards felt cool to the touch, yet they seemed to have a life of their own, warming slightly.
I summon [Regenerating Slime] in Defense Position! A wriggling green gelatinous creature appears on Malik's field, then he sets two cards face-down. End of turn!
Yuki looked at the cards in his hand: [Saiyan Warrior Raditz], [Saiyan's Wrath], [Ki Blast Interference], [Saiyan Near Death Breakthrough], and [Caiba 913]. This was indeed an unheard-of Saiyan-themed deck.
My turn, draw a card! Yuuki drew [Saiyan Prince Vegeta]. I will Normal Summon [Saiyan Warrior Raditz]!
A tall figure appeared on Yuki's field, long hair flowing down his shoulders, his battle power detector flashing red. "Raditz's ATK is 1500, lower than your Regenerating Slime," Yuki calmly analyzed, "but I activate the Continuous Spell [Saiyan's Wrath]! Whenever my Saiyan monster is destroyed by battle, I can place a Wrath Counter in my Deck!"
Malik scoffed: "A boring little trick."
It's not over yet! Yuuki plays another card and activates the Quick-Play Spell [Ki Blast Interference]! You cannot activate your Trap Cards this turn! Raditz, attack Regenerating Slime!
Raditz gathered balls of light in his hands and blasted them at the green creature. Although his monster was destroyed due to its low attack power, a red marker had been placed on top of Yuki's deck.
My turn is over. Yuuki looked at Malik, "Your Regenerating Slime can revive infinitely, but next turn I'll show you the true power of a Saiyan."
Malik's golden pupils contracted: Arrogance! My turn, draw! He glanced at his hand, a sinister smile spreading across his face. "Let me show you true terror!" He activated [Monster Reborn], Special Summoning [Masked Beast - Death Guardian] from his Graveyard!
A gigantic humanoid monster wearing a bone mask crawls out of the graveyard, boasting an attack power of 3300. But that's not all! Malik raises a gleaming golden card, activating the Special Summoning condition for "Winged Dragon of Ra" from his hand! Tribute three monsters!
Yuki gasped. A God Card! Malik's Regenerating Slime, Masked Monster, and another Covert Monster on the field vanished in a speck of light, replaced by a golden, soaring Sun Bird.
Now, pay 1000 Life Points to activate Winged Dragon of Ra's effect! Malik's Life Points drop to 3000, and its ATK is converted to the sum of the ATK of the Tribute Monsters! Winged Dragon of Ra's ATK soars to a terrifying 5300.
Winged Dragon of Ra, attack the player directly! Divine Flame Cannon! Malik laughed wildly and waved his hand.
A torrent of golden flames swept in, and Yuuki instinctively raised his hand to shield himself. "Activate Faceless!" he shouted, "[Saiyan Near-Death Breakthrough]! When I take more than 2000 points of battle damage, I can halve the damage and Special Summon a Saiyan monster from my Deck!"
From within the flames, a short but muscular figure slowly rose, his black hair standing on end and his tail coiled around his waist. Special Summon: [Super Saiyan Son Goku]!
Sun Wukong (Attack Power 2500) crossed his arms and blocked in front of Yuki, taking the remaining damage. Yuki's health dropped to 2750.
"Hmph, barely clinging to life." Malik scoffed, setting a card to end the turn. The Winged Dragon's ATK will revert to its original value. The Winged Dragon's ATK has been reduced to 0.
Yuuki wiped the sweat from his brow: My turn, draw a card! The new card I drew is the [Saiyan Fusion Earrings]. Activate the Spell Card [Saiyan Training]! Draw a card based on the number of Rage Counters on the field! I have one counter now, draw one card!
The new card is [Super Saiyan 2 Son Gohan].
Normally summons [Saibain] (ATK 800), then activates [Saiyan Fusion Potions]! Fusion is achieved by combining Goku on the field with Vegeta in the hand! Yuuki raises the card, reveal yourself, [Super Saiyan Blue Vegito]!
In a dazzling blue light, a blue-haired warrior descends upon the battlefield, possessing an attack power of 3500. Vegito attacks the Winged Dragon of Ra! The Final Flash!
Foolish! Malik grinned and activated the Trap Card [Phoenix of Ra]! When Ra is attacked, you can send it to the Graveyard and Special Summon it next turn as [Ra's Winged Dragon of Ra - Phoenix]! And I will not take battle damage this turn!
Vegito's energy wave passed through the Winged Dragon of Ra, which had turned into golden light, but Malik was unharmed.
It's not over yet! Yuki gritted his teeth, and the cultivators attacked the players directly!
The little plant-like creature lunged at Malik, dealing 800 damage and reducing his health to 2200.
End of turn. Yuuki frowned as he watched Malik send the Winged Dragon of Ra to the graveyard; next turn, Phoenix Form.
My turn! Draw! Madness gleamed in Malik's eyes as he Special Summoned [Ra's Winged Dragon of Ra - Phoenix] from his Graveyard! 4000 ATK! And unaffected by other card effects!
The golden firebird was reborn from the ashes, its size even greater, its wings burning with eternal flames. The phoenix attacked Vegito! Divine Flames!
"Activate Vegito's effect!" Yuki shouted. "Once per turn, it can reduce battle damage to 0!" The blue warrior erected a protective shield, barely managing to withstand the divine flames.
Malik sneered: But when the damage phase ends, the Phoenix will destroy your monster! Sure enough, after the shield shattered, Vegito was engulfed in flames.
Due to the effect of [Saiyan's Wrath], an additional Wrath counter is added! Yuuki places a second mark on his deck, and when Vegito is destroyed, he can Special Summon [Super Saiyan Goku] and [Saiyan Prince Vegeta] from his deck!
Two beams of light flashed, and Goku (2500) and Vegeta (2400) stood on the field again.
Set a card, end the turn. Malik seems a bit annoyed; your stubbornness is disgusting.
Yuki looked at his two rage counters, as well as the [Super Saiyan 2 Son Gohan] and the [Prophecy of the Saiyan Elder] he had just drawn. A plan formed in his mind.
My turn, draw a card! It's [Spirit Bomb]. Activate [Elder Saiyan's Prophecy]! Reveal the top three cards of the deck and add the Saiyan card to your hand! Yuuki obtained [Super Saiyan 4 Son Goku] and [Saiyan Bloodline Awakening].
Normally summons [Super Saiyan 2 Son Gohan] (Attack Power 2800)! Then activates [Saiyan Bloodline Awakening]! Releases Son Goku, Vegeta, and Son Gohan on the field!
Three beams of light shot into the sky. Malik squinted: What are you doing?
When there are three or more Saiyans on the field, Yuki's voice trembles with excitement, and he can Special Summon from his hand! Descend, [Super Saiyan God Son Goku]!
Amidst a crimson glow, a red-haired, red-eyed warrior slowly descended, his attack power displayed as ?. "Super Saiyan God's attack power is the number of Saiyans sent to the graveyard x 1000!" Yuki shouted. "I sent five Saiyan cards, so the attack power is 5000!"
Malik's expression changed drastically: Impossible!
Activate the Spirit Bomb! This turn, Super Saiyan God can directly attack the player! Yuuki points at Malik, finishing him off! God Impact!
The red warrior gathered a massive ball of energy in his hands, causing the entire temple to tremble with the energy fluctuations. "Activate the trap card [Defense Slime]!" Malik cried out desperately, transferring the damage to the regenerating slime!
The green colloid blocked Malik's path, but the energy ball easily evaporated it, and the aftershocks still reduced Malik's health to zero.
The thousand-year-old staff clattered to the ground, and Malik fell to his knees. His dark personality was forcibly stripped away from him, turning into a black shadow that screamed and vanished. Young Malik raised his head blankly, his eyes regaining their clarity.
Yuki's Duel Disk and deck vanished in the form of light. He helped the weakened Malik up: You are free.
Malik looked at the unfamiliar duelist, tears silently streaming down his face: Thank you... for saving... me...
The desert wind swept through the ancient temple. Yuki looked up at the azure sky, and the last card in his hand, [Saiyan Spirit], shone faintly in the sunlight before slipping through his fingers like grains of sand.
Chapter 360 Orichalcos Barrier
Hot winds whipped up dust as Yuki stood amidst the temple ruins, watching the card's glow gradually fade in his hand. Malik leaned weakly against a broken stone pillar, the Millennium Staff lying quietly at his feet, its golden surface devoid of its previous malevolent light.
Who...are you? Malik's voice was dry and confused. Why are there monsters in your deck that I've never seen before?
You Ji crouched down and picked up the thousand-year-old tin staff. Unexpectedly, this legendary artifact didn't react in his hand, acting like an ordinary metal scepter. "I'm just an ordinary person who happened to come here," he replied with a wry smile, noticing a tiny inscription of ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs on the base of the staff.
The sound of rustling footsteps approached from afar. Yuki turned around alertly and saw a man wearing a cowboy hat and carrying a strange box walking towards them. The man wore a black eyepatch over his left eye, but his right eye gleamed with a golden light even more dangerous than Malik's.
What a touching reunion, Malik. The man's voice was deep and hoarse; it seemed your dark side had been purified.
Malik's body trembled visibly: Da... Daz Daqier mixed with water passed Zqi Mountain Temple a person
Yuki immediately blocked Malik's path: Stop! Who are you?
The man stopped, a cold smile playing on his lips: "I am Daz, the messenger of Orichalcos." He slowly raised his right hand, a duel disk inlaid with green gems unfolding on his wrist. "So you're the one who defeated Malik with that strange deck. I'm intrigued."
Yuki felt a chill creep up his spine. Orichalcos—this was a powerful dark force that appeared later in Yu-Gi-Oh! DM, far more dangerous than Malik's Dark Personality.
"I have no interest in dueling you." Yuki clenched his fist. Although his Duel Disk and deck had disappeared, a certain intuition told him that the Saiyan power had not truly left him.
Daz let out a low laugh: "You have no choice." He suddenly spread his arms, and the surrounding scenery abruptly distorted. The yellow sand and the temple vanished, replaced by a dueling platform suspended in the void, surrounded by endless darkness.
This is the barrier of Orichalcos. Daz's voice echoes in the void; here, the souls of the defeated will be imprisoned forever.
Yuki felt a weight on his waist and looked down to find that the Duel Disk had been reloaded at some point, and the deck was intact in its slots. Even stranger, he sensed a new power surging within the deck—as if the previous battle had evolved it.
"First strike is mine!" Daz drew a card before Yuuki could respond and activated the field spell "Orichalcos Barrier!"
A verdant magic circle unfolded beneath their feet, countless ancient runes shimmering in the air. Yuji immediately felt a sense of oppression, as if a thousand-pound weight was pressing on his chest.
Next, activate [Baptism of Orichalcos] to add three Orichalcos cards from your deck to your hand. Daz's actions are fluid and seamless: Summon [Orichalcos Chikas] in Defense Position, then set two cards face down, and end your turn.
Yuki's heart raced as he watched the mechanical armored monster appear on Daz's field and the ever-shrinking green barrier around it. He knew the terrifying aspect of the Orichalcos deck—those monsters would continuously strengthen as the barrier grew, and they were almost impossible to completely destroy.
"My turn, draw a card!" Yuuki looked at his starting hand and his eyes lit up. Besides the familiar Saiyan cards, there was another card he had never seen before—[Saiyan Legend Super Saiyan God].
Activate the Spell Card [Saiyan Detector]! Yuuki places the card on the Duel Disk to check your two face-down cards! A virtual image reveals that Daz's face-down cards are [Mirror Wall of Orichalcos] and [Blessing of Orichalcos].
Then, Normal Summon [Saiyan Warrior Nappa]! A bald, muscular man appears on the field, his ATK displayed as 1800. Nappa's effect activates! When there are no other monsters on the field, you can destroy one Spell/Trap Card! I choose [Mirror Wall of Orichalcos] on the left!
Naba gathered energy blasts in his hands and shattered Daz's Geka.
"Battle phase! Naba, attack Qijias!" Yuki ordered.
Activate the effect of the Giga! Daz calmly responded, "When attacked, I can change my battle position!" The mechanical armor in defense position switched to attack position, displaying an attack power of 1400.
Naba's powerful punch shattered Chikas, reducing Daz's Life Points to 3600. When Chikas was destroyed, Daz drew a card from his deck, and I can add an Orichalcos monster from my deck to my hand.
Yuji frowned: Set a card, end the turn.
Daz sneered: My turn, draw! Activate [Blessing of Orichalcos] to Special Summon Chikas from my Graveyard and increase its ATK by 500!
