Chapter 144 The Magician's Fantasy Ends with the Time Machine God
"Has the Time Machine God's effect been nullified, turning it into a target with 0 attack power?"
Z-ONE's tone was very calm.
Because he still has two face-down cards on the field: the trap card [Magic Cylinder] and the trap card [Explosive Armor].
Each one is a powerful trap that can turn the tide of battle in an instant.
"Entering battle phase!"
Kagura Kiryu waved his arm; "In this instant, I unleash a quick-attack spell from my hand, [Sealing Arrow]!"
"This card can only be activated during the Battle Phase. Your opponent cannot activate any Spell/Trap Cards this turn!"
In the green card image, countless arrows fly in from afar, pinning down the two giant face-down cards in Z-0NE's back row, rendering them immobile.
Kiryu Kagura pointed at the monster on the Z-ONE field: "[Dark Magician], attack [Time Machine God. Michon]!"
"Dark Magician!"
Z-0NE's eyes narrowed slightly; "But even so, you can only inflict 2500 damage on me."
"And this kind of damage can be instantly restored to 4000 by using the effect of [Time Machine God Randeen]."
Kagura Kiryu smiled slightly and uttered a classic Yu-Gi-Oh! line: "Sorokuwatokana! (That's not necessarily true!)"
"At this moment, I activate another effect of [Dark Magician of Illusion]!"
"Once per turn, when a Spellcaster Normal Monster declares an attack, you can banish 1 card your opponent controls!"
Kagura Kiryu laughed, "Except for your [Time Machine God. Randeen]!"
As the [Dark Mage of Fantasy] raised his staff once more, a dimensional rift slowly opened, revealing [Time Machine God Randeen].
behind.
The green mechanical angel struggled desperately, but to no avail; the wolf-fox was banished to another dimension.
"The number of monsters on my opponent's field has changed, but I can choose to still attack!"
Kagura Kiryu commanded:
"【Dark Magician】, continue the attack!"
The Black Magician brandished his staff, unleashing a dark purple magical force towards Time Machine God Michion.
He deliberately left the monster alive to avenge the three times he was burned.
[Time Machine God. Michon] struggled painfully for a moment, then emitted a hissing mechanical malfunction sound and exploded with a bang.
【Z-0NE, LP4000→LP1500】
The magic stirred up a large amount of smoke, and two huge mechanical arms on the side of the Z-ONE's D-wheel also rose up to block the aftershocks.
"Finally, it's the [Dark Magician of Fantasy]! Attack the opponent directly!"
"Dimensional Dark Magician!"
[Fantasy Dark Mage] Leaps through the air, his staff also brimming with dark magic.
As he unleashed a massive amount of magical power from his superior position, Z-ONE slowly closed his eyes:
"A decent duel."
【Z-0NE, LP1500→LP0】
The giant D-wheel was blasted away, spun several times in the air, and crashed into the white wall from the side, kicking up a cloud of smoke.
The giant robotic arm on the right side of the D-wheel was emitting a buzzing electrical sound, clearly indicating that it had suffered considerable damage in the impact.
The lights on the enormous life support device dimmed, but quickly returned, and the entire D-Wheel floated up, swaying slightly.
It landed in front of Kagura Kiryu, and [Z-ONE]'s somewhat tired voice came out:
"Very good, it seems you have learned new skills from the enemy as well."
"Kagura Kiryu, as expected, my guess was right all along. You are the key."
Kagura Kiryu scratched the end of his hair with his finger:
"What do you mean?"
Z-ONE shook his head: "I won't tell you; it won't do you any good."
Kagura Kiryu: —
What are you even talking about? Riddler, get out of Gotham!
That's what he said, but Kagura Kiryu didn't do it. Instead, he forgot about it and excitedly rubbed his hands together.
"Um, the card you promised—"
"After this tournament that decides the Duel King, the card data will be automatically transmitted to Kaiba Corporation."
[Z-ONE] seemed to remember something and added:
"Don't worry, even Seto Kaiba can't use this data without your permission."
Kagura Kiryu was relieved, but not entirely at ease:
"Why after Duelist City?"
【Z-ONE】: "History is too fragile now and should not be destroyed."
"Each Duel King is a crucial turning point in history; if a deviation occurs, it can lead to greater instability in the situation."
"The outflow of these cards will inevitably interfere with the current environment and is detrimental to stability."
Kagura Kiryu understood.
The gist of it is that they're afraid Kaiba might suddenly acquire a bunch of powerful cards and become the Duel King.
However, he felt that Z-ONE was overthinking it, since Seto Kaiba couldn't beat Yugi Muto, which was an established fact.
He even suspected that this was a rule of the Yu-Gi-Oh! universe, such as the rule that if you play "Flickering Candle," you will definitely lose, and if you call Kuriboh "a noob," you will also definitely lose.
Who knows what kind of law this is, like how a seahorse will always lose to a king (except for the threat of jumping off a building).
Just as a handsome white-haired man was pondering the mysteries of the universe, on the other side, a child getting a haircut was about to drop his jaw in astonishment.
"Lost, lost?"
Kaimania's mouth opened into the shape of an "0", completely losing the intimidating aura of a sinister villain.
"Z-ONE God, the invincible Time Machine God deck, actually lost?"
He momentarily doubted whether there was something wrong with his eyes, but then suddenly remembered that he was a program and quickly checked for bugs.
A moment later, a distraught green-haired child collapsed to his knees.
No, there isn't a single bug. It truly is a perfect program.
But that's not the point. The point is, this proves that what he saw was real!
He looked at Kagura Kiryu walking towards the giant D-wheel on the screen, his eyes filled with apprehension.
Just who is this guy?
He quickly started looking up information on Kagura Kiryu, intending to start from his childhood, but found it to be completely blank.
No?
How is that possible? Even if someone is unregistered, they should leave some trace. How could there be absolutely no proof of their existence?
He anxiously bit his fingers, frantically trying to utilize all the computing power available to his AI to capture information, but still to no avail.
The only publicly available information that can be found online is Kagura Kiryu's household registration certificate, identification information, and his impressive publicly disclosed achievements.
But he already had this information, and by tracing back in time, he found nothing.
Kagura Kiryu's past is a blank slate, as clean as a sheet of paper.
It was as if he had suddenly appeared out of this world.
Something's not right, this is very wrong.
Noa Kaiba, a genius who died young, was intelligent enough to rival Seto Kaiba, so she was certainly not stupid.
His non-existent brain raced through thoughts, then failed to process them.
Hiss, that's impossible. As long as a person exists, there must be traces. This person couldn't have just popped out of a rock, could he?
Suddenly, a flash of inspiration struck Haima, and he had a crazy guess:
"Could it be a parallel universe?"
