Chapter 303: Fully Unleashed Excellence

Wan Wan Zhangmu's turn.

"Draw!"

First, draw a card—

He vaguely sensed something was off, but dared not entertain that thought, forcing his focus onto his hand.

Perfect! My hand is flawless!

"Speed Spell Card, Disruptive Mixed Match!" Wan Wan Zhangmu slid one card from his hand into the Duel Disk.

The card depicted a battered Disruptive Blue, beaten black and blue on the arena by Armored Dragon LV5, while Armored Dragon LV5 rested nearby.

"Choose one 【Disruptive】 card from your hand or face-up on the field and send it to the graveyard. I can then add one 【Disruptive】 monster with a different name and one 【Armored Dragon】 monster from my deck or graveyard to my hand."

"I send Disruptive Magic to the graveyard."

"I add Disruptive Blue and Armored Dragon LV5 to my hand!"

The deck automatically ejected two cards, and he swiftly grabbed them into his hand.

"Disruptive Mixed Match's effect isn't over! I can also summon the monster I added to my hand in attack position—I summon Disruptive Blue in attack position!"

Disruptive Blue had a long, bulky head and, compared to other Disruptive monsters, radiated impressive presence.

Disruptive Blue, Level 2, Light Attribute, Beast Type, ATK 0.

"Oh?" Kaima observed Disruptive Blue's appearance with interest. "You found this monster card in Disruptive Village, didn't you?"

"How do you know…?" Wan Wan Zhangmu instinctively lowered his voice, trembling slightly, then shook his head violently and shouted, "Effect of Disruptive Magic! When this card is sent from hand or field to the graveyard, I can add Disruptive Yellow, Disruptive Green, and Disruptive Black from my deck to my hand!"

"Eeh!"

"Wuhu!"

"Here we go, big bro~~"

Three bizarrely shaped spirits flew out from the deck and hovered around Wan Wan Zhangmu, cheering excitedly.

But unlike what they expected, when they appeared, Wan Wan Zhangmu did not scold them or demand silence as usual—instead, he stared tensely at his opponent.

Even more, they could see sweat dripping from Wan Wan Zhangmu's forehead!

"B-Big bro?" Disruptive Yellow asked nervously.

"Not done yet!" Wan Wan Zhangmu immediately played another card from his hand. "Activate Spell Card, Disruptive Magic Modification!"

This time, the card showed Disruptive Yellow suffering a gruesome fate on an operating table.

"To activate, show one Light-Attribute, Machine-Type Fusion Monster from your Extra Deck, then banish any number of 【Disruptive】 monsters from your hand, field, or graveyard. Then, special summon that Fusion Monster using as many materials as the number of banished monsters—only one card with the same name can be special summoned."

"I show my Extra Deck's XYZ-Draco Cannon!"

"I banish Disruptive Yellow, Disruptive Green, and Disruptive Black from my hand!"

Wan Wan Zhangmu displayed the three Disruptive monsters he had just added to his hand, then tucked them into his pocket and special summoned three monsters from his deck onto the field: "Special summon X-Leader Cannon, Y-Dragon Head, Z-Metal Tracks!"

X-Leader Cannon, Level 4, Light Attribute, Machine Type, ATK 1800.

Y-Dragon Head, Level 4, Light Attribute, Machine Type, ATK 1500. Ally Monster.

Z-Metal Tracks, Level 4, Light Attribute, Machine Type, ATK 1500. Ally Monster.

Three glowing mechanical monsters floated onto the field, staring at the opponent, heads raised as if roaring.

"Not done yet!!!"

Wan Wan Zhangmu didn't stop: "I fuse these three Machine-Type monsters together!!"

"Come on—"

"Three monsters fuse!"

"XYZ-Draco Cannon!"

The three mechanical monsters assembled from top to bottom, merging into a colossal composite robot.

XYZ-Draco Cannon, Level 8, Light Attribute, Machine Type, ATK 2800.

Wan Wan Zhangmu wiped his chin.

Then, he was startled to find his right handback slightly damp.

He looked down and saw it was soaked in sweat.

This…

He shook his head again, trying desperately to calm himself.

"Activate the effect of Disruptive Mixed Match in the graveyard: banish this card, return the three banished 【Disruptive】 monsters to the deck and shuffle, then draw one card."

He pulled out the Disruptive brothers he had just tucked away and shoved them back into the deck, which automatically shuffled and drew him one card.

He glanced down.

"Sacrifice Disruptive Blue on the field for a Level-Up Summon—"

"Armored Dragon LV5!"

The blue Disruptive monster dissolved into foam, replaced by a towering, fearsome dragon.

The dragon stood on the field, clashing its fists with loud thuds, then let out a deafening roar as if echoing its master's fighting spirit.

Armored Dragon LV5, Level 5, Wind Attribute, Dragon Type, ATK 2400.

Phew—

Should this be enough?

Wan Wan Zhangmu finally exhaled slightly.

Both Armored Dragon LV5 and XYZ-Draco Cannon had formidable ATK, and each possessed powerful abilities to destroy opponent cards. Whichever remained into the next turn could handle or neutralize the enemy's offense.

Moreover, after summoning so many monsters, his hand hadn't been depleted at all.

"Set one card, end turn!"

This should be enough…

"You summoned two Level-Up monsters right away, maintained your hand size, and your Disruptive Magic Modification in the graveyard can still recycle cards for drawing. For a first turn, that's quite impressive. Truly deserves the word 【Excellent】."

Hearing this, Wan Wan Zhangmu couldn't help but smile faintly and looked up.

"But!"

Wan Wan Zhangmu froze as if struck by lightning, instinctively recoiling half a step.

But?

"But—your heart has a serious flaw!"

Heart?

"Look closely—how a truly 【Excellent】 duelist duels!" Kaima roared to the sky, and as he shouted, the entire hot spring seemed to erupt into a violent storm.

"What?" Wan Wan Zhangmu braced his hands in front of him, yet his body still slid backward under the bizarre storm.

He had been pushed back by someone's sheer aura!

"My turn, draw!"

Kaima glanced at his hand: "Hmph. Normal Summon—Z-Infinite Tracks!"

"What!?!?"

The image of Metal Tracks showed tracks on both sides with a single-eyed controller in the center.

But the Infinite Tracks Kaima summoned was an entire size larger than Metal Tracks; additionally, metal claws were mounted on both tracks, and the upper layer opened to reveal hidden cannons.

Z-Infinite Tracks, Level 4, Light Attribute, Machine Type, ATK 1500. Ally Monster.

"Z…?" Wan Wan Zhangmu's eyes widened, mouth agape.

"Heh…" Kaima chuckled softly.
