Chapter 591

Shen Leban already had his Duel Disk ready on his left hand, and Yu Beier was also ready to control Shen Leban's body to duel countless students and teachers, making Jūdai feel pain and torment, so she didn't waste any words, controlling Shen Leban to raise his left hand.

The duel unfolded directly in this silent state, without even shouting "Duel."

Shen Leban, LP: 4000.

Tiancheng Kō, LP: 4000.

"Kō!" Jūdai clutched his stomach, slowly got up, and looking at this scene, was a bit anxious.

That guy who controlled Shen Leban was not a simple person; Shō and Kenzan were already very excellent, but they lost the duel in just a short moment. Not only that, his own heroes who had crossed countless difficulties and traveled through the Spirit Dimension had no ability to resist at all when facing this existence, being knocked down instantly, and only Neos could withstand the attack.

This was still in the state of possession and control; if it were the main body...

Too dangerous!

It was no wonder the Yu Yi Ren was so nervous.

"My turn, draw." Shen Leban sneered and drew a card.

He glanced at the card in his hand, a look of confidence on his face: "Good, an excellent hand!"

Tiancheng Kō frowned slightly.

This 【Shen Leban】 now seemed to be Shen Leban...

No?

Or rather, Yu Beier seemed to be controlling Shen Leban, using his personal ability to attach Yu Beier's own power to duel?

Yu Beier manipulated Shen Leban, holding up a card with one hand; not far away, Jūdai was alert to Professor Yanjingshe, keeping a distance from him while paying attention to the duel.

What kind of deck would this existence that controlled Shen Leban use?

Yu Beier looked at Shen Leban's hand cards.

Honestly, she was a bit impatient earlier.

According to her original plan, after meeting Jūdai, she definitely had to say some trash talk first to force and torment Jūdai's soul, but she hadn't seen Jūdai for too long, and because of the previous "Favorite Contact" incident, she was quite irritable, so when Jūdai came up directly just now, she was somewhat impatient, failing to fully utilize Shen Leban's imitation ability to let Jūdai let down his guard first, and then suddenly make a move to better torment Jūdai.

But this was no big deal.

Because the reason she controlled Shen Leban was for this moment to duel Tiancheng Kō, and then seize the body of Tiancheng Kō, Jūdai's best friend, to make Jūdai sink even deeper into pain and love.

She sneered and drew a card from her hand: "Continuous Magic Card, Brilliant Fusion."

Brilliant Fusion!!

Jūdai's eyes widened.

It was Tiancheng's exclusive Fusion Magic Card, the Fusion Magic Card of Gem-Knights—

How is this possible; besides Tiancheng, someone else actually has it!?

Where did this spirit get it??

The answer is...

It was Shen Leban's own.

Tiancheng Kō's brows were locked tight.

In fact, not only Brilliant Fusion, Shen Leban even had the Future Fusion in the form of an Equip Magic Card, because he really admired Tiancheng Kō, and he did have some special talents, and most importantly—he was quite wealthy, so Shen Leban had collected a large number of rare cards.

Even cards like Ancient Gear Golem, which Tiancheng Kō had worked so hard to get one of at the time, Shen Leban had three; he was a truly wealthy person.

Special talent and family background, as well as his worship and imitation of Tiancheng Kō, made Shen Leban collect a large number of Tiancheng Kō-related cards; he was already very good at imitating duels, and he wouldn't feel the cards were stuck in his hand, so it was very normal to have these cards.

As early as the first time Tiancheng Kō met Shen Leban, the two had already had an almost mirror-image duel.

On the other side, Yu Beier was extremely good at bringing out the talent of the possessed; let alone Shen Leban, in the original work, Yu Beier possessed John and could even play with a mixed deck of Crystal Beasts, Sacred Beasts, and Yu Beier.

Although Tiancheng Kō didn't expect Yu Beier to control Shen Leban's body, at least Tiancheng Kō could predict that she should be able to use Shen Leban's deck easily.

"The effect of Brilliant Fusion, use the Fusion materials from your deck to Fusion Summon by making the ATK and DEF of 1 Gem-Knight monster 0." Yu Beier picked up Shen Leban's deck, flipped through the cards in his deck, and a sneer hung on her face.

"The Fusion condition is Gem-Knight Sapphire and a Gem-Knight monster."

"I fuse Gem-Knight Sapphire from the deck and Gem-Knight Emerald from the deck."

"Appear, Gem-Knight Sapphire!"

The familiar Gem-Knight appeared on Yu Beier's field, but compared to the righteous knight of Tiancheng Kō, this Sapphire had black smoke visible to the naked eye that looked like substance, which was daunting to look at.

"This—" Bai Jing saw this scene and was speechless, almost opening his mouth to scold, but because he was worried about affecting Tiancheng Kō in the duel, he hurriedly stopped his voice.

Gem-Knight Sapphire, Level 6, Earth Attribute, Aqua-Type, DEF 0.

"Why is it Sapphire—" Jūdai blurted out a question.

Not far away, the Yu Yi Ren folded its half-wings and flew back slowly; Jūdai hurriedly greeted it with heartache.

It also saw this scene and instinctively issued the same question—why was it Sapphire!?

It sounded a bit strange and bizarre; after all, although "Shen Leban" used a Gem-Knight card commonly used by Tiancheng Kō, in the world of duelists, using similar or even identical cards was not a rare thing.

Except for cards that were unique in the world, like Crystal Beasts or Destiny Heroes, the vast majority of cards actually had multiple copies, so it was no big deal.

But—

For Tiancheng Kō and Shen Leban, 【Sapphire】 was special.

"It seems you still remember, Department Head." Yu Beier used Shen Leban's body and voice to say some things, "This card was the key card with which you won during our first duel. I didn't expect you to still remember."

Tiancheng Kō remained silent, his face expressionless, and his thoughts could not be seen.

"Previously, I studied your 【Fusion】 very hard, studied your ultimate Fusion, and filled my deck with Fusion cards; now, seeing your beloved monster appear on the enemy's field, do you feel the changes of the world—"

"Stop using Shen Leban's face and voice to talk nonsense here. I know you are not him." Tiancheng Kō spoke calmly.

"Heh..." Although exposed, Yu Beier didn't mind at all.

She didn't expect to be able to deceive Tiancheng Kō, a guy who could instantly distinguish that the person next to him was a spirit with the naked eye on the first day of darkness's invasion, in this way.

Moreover, this was also part of the plan she conceived.

"You know I'm not him, that's great." Yu Beier suddenly changed the subject, "This guy, even before he completely fell into a dream, was thinking about helping you, hahaha—"

Tiancheng Kō's complexion became a bit gloomy.

Seeing Tiancheng Kō's complexion finally change slightly, Yu Beier felt a sense of satisfaction.

Previously, seeing Tiancheng Kō and Jūdai Yuki use some "Favorite Contact" in a tag duel to fuse that damn Shining Flare Wingman and Neos, Yu Beier's hatred for Tiancheng Kō reached its peak; now, she absolutely had to make Tiancheng Kō feel pain and torment.

It was also just right to let Jūdai see how Tiancheng Kō was being tormented in her duel.

"Tiancheng Kō, you failed the trust your classmates placed in you—"

"Nonsense! Kō has always been conscientious, he has already done enough and done well enough!" Jūdai retorted.

Yu Beier sneered: "Enough? Well enough? Really—you don't know yet, Jūdai, that day, that huge snake-like otherworld god circling this island was this person's 【partner】."

"If Tiancheng Kō really did enough, then he should have tried every means to maintain the existence of that Purgatory Fire, reducing the possibility of your classmates being attacked by spirits, right?"

A ferocious smile appeared on Shen Leban's face, and he poked his own face with his finger: "Hahaha, this guy, even at the end, was still longing to help you, but didn't expect that you never used your full strength at all, right?"

This?

Jūdai looked at Tiancheng Kō.

Regarding whether he used full strength, honestly... even if it were him, he might not have really risked everything.

But he immediately dismissed his thoughts.

He would not doubt Tiancheng Kō.

Because they were true best friends.

Yu Beier looked at Tiancheng Kō's changing complexion, controlling Shen Leban's body; on Shen Leban's forehead, a distance above the bridge of the nose, in that forehead, a "crack" slowly opened, and then, a single eye began to twist and flicker bizarrely, observing Tiancheng Kō.

The power of darkness and the power of light manifested on Yu Beier's body. Her eyes could see through people's hearts and see the darkness in people's hearts.

As long as she could detect Tiancheng Kō's weakness, she could strike at the weakness, resurrect on his body at that time, and take advantage of the situation to seize his body and be affectionate with Jūdai—

However, this eye shone on Tiancheng Kō, but after a wave of fluctuations, it had no influence at all.

Tsk—

This level of mental torture was far from enough.

"Set three cards, end turn."

Three cards?

Tiancheng Kō narrowed his eyes sharply.

Compared to Yu Beier's weird trash talk, with these three set cards down, Tiancheng Kō was really having some emotional fluctuations.

"My turn, draw."

Tiancheng Kō drew a card and scanned his hand.

The effect of Gem-Knight Sapphire is that when it is sent from the field to the Graveyard, you can target 1 card your opponent controls and return that card to the hand.

As a departure disruption, when Tiancheng Kō had no defensive means before, Tiancheng Kō liked it very much; after all, there weren't many first-turn fields, so he used it when he could.

But as time passed, this effect was far from being that powerful.

After all, its effect trigger condition was only being sent from the field to the Graveyard, not even "when this card is sent to the Graveyard" or "when this card leaves the field," so Tiancheng Kō actually had many other choices.

First, the simplest method, naturally, was "banishment."

"Normal Summon, Predaplant Sundew Kingii."

The lizard made of green leaves opened its flower crown and jumped onto Tiancheng Kō's field.

Predaplant Sundew Kingii, Level 2, Dark Attribute, Plant-Type, ATK 600.

"Predaplant Sundew Kingii can fuse monsters by using cards on its field and hand together in the Main Phase." Seeing this monster, Yu Beier quickly judged what Tiancheng Kō wanted to do, "Use Sundew Kingii's effect to fuse into Predaplant Chimerafflesia, right?

Predaplant Chimerafflesia can directly banish monsters with a lower level than itself on the opponent's field, and Sapphire's effect is an effect that can only be activated when it is sent to the Graveyard; once it is banished, it is useless.

Heh—【He】 has seen this scene countless times."

Tiancheng Kō frowned, not caring about Yu Beier's words, and activated Sundew Kingii's effect: "Sundew Kingii's effect, during your Main Phase, fuse Dark Attribute monsters using cards from your hand or field.

I fuse Fluffal Chain in my hand and Predaplant Sundew Kingii on the field—"

"Descend, Predaplant Chimerafflesia!"

Tiancheng Kō's super flower crown began to grow wildly in this destroyed forest, and before long, it swept through the entire forest.

Predaplant Chimerafflesia, Level 7, Dark Attribute, Plant-Type, ATK 2500.

"Fluffal Chain's effect, when sent from the hand or field to the Graveyard, you can add one Fluffal card from your deck to your hand." Tiancheng Kō started a chain.

"Chimerafflesia has the ability to directly banish lower-level monsters on the opponent's field, increase ATK, and even search for 【Fusion】 Magic Cards after being sent to the Graveyard; it is one of the monsters symbolizing Fusion." Yu Beier said casually, "I also very much want to obtain such Fusion, such power, Department Head—

However, that monster has a fatal weakness!

Just like Gem-Knight Sapphire, it has a flaw, and that is, if it is banished, it also has no effect!"

?

"Open set card, Bottomless Trap Hole! When a monster with 1500 or more ATK is Summoned, Special Summoned, or Flip Summoned, destroy and banish those monsters!"

Jūdai's brows were tightly locked.

Indeed, Chimerafflesia does have quite excellent abilities, but if it is banished, everything will be in vain.

And...

Bottomless Trap Hole was also a card Shen Leban used when dueling Kō before.

Thinking of this, he was a bit dazed, wandering in his thoughts for a while, and hurriedly shook his head.

It's okay—Kō is fine!

Tiancheng Kō obviously thought of this too, and he quickly played a second hand card: "Quick-Play Magic Card, De-Fusion, activate by targeting 1 Fusion Monster on the field. Return that monster to the Extra Deck, and if the set of Fusion Materials used for that monster is gathered in the Graveyard, you can Special Summon that set of monsters to your field!"

The cave appeared below the flower, but in the moment it was about to swallow the flower, the flower instantly disintegrated, turning into a chain demon and a small green-leaf lizard.

"Then, process Fluffal Chain's effect, I add Frightfur Patchwork to my hand, and activate it." Tiancheng Kō didn't pause at all, "Add Substitute Fusion from the deck and the second Fluffal Chain from the deck to my hand."

"Beautiful! This not only dodged the trap but also got a new Fusion, and Substitute Fusion can even be recycled later, drawing an extra card!" Seeing this scene, Jūdai couldn't help but be a bit excited.

Sure enough, Kō is really too amazing! No need to worry about Kō at all!

"Amazing, really amazing, Department Head." Yu Beier clapped her hands, not feeling embarrassed at all because her tactics were dodged; on the contrary, she looked very relaxed, "It's as if you were prepared to take my trap, then dodge the trap, and then re-fuse."

"That's for sure." At some point, Wan Wan Wan Zhangmu also followed the voice, and hearing Yu Beier's voice, he snorted, "Tiancheng's Fusion is the ultimate Fusion, it is the absolute Fusion, no one can stop him from fusing."

Afterward, he stood by Jūdai's side, carefully blocking Professor Yanjingshe for him, and whispered to Jūdai to try to wake up Shō and Kenzan.

"Absolute Fusion, complete Fusion, ultimate Fusion... ah, it's really enviable." Yu Beier hung a smile on her face, "However, why is it that what I see is 【Absolute Non-Remaining Fusion】, 【Complete Annexation Fusion】, and 【Ultimate Self-Fusion】."

"What nonsense!" Wan Wan Wan Zhangmu was suddenly anxious.

Yu Beier's one sentence made Wan Wan Wan Zhangmu furious.

The reason was very simple; this sentence almost denied the "underlying logic" of Tiancheng Kō and even the Fusion Department family!

He angrily scolded Yu Beier: "No matter what flowery words or conspiracies you used, get out of Shen Leban's body, you evil spirit!"

"Flowery words, conspiracies? Heh, don't get it wrong."

"It was this person who took the initiative to find me."

On Shen Leban's face, a ferocious and crazy smile appeared; his teeth were almost all exposed, the white teeth became like shark teeth, and the crazy smile revealed a trace of distortion and bizarreness, as if the whole person had turned into a demon.

"It is precisely because of your inaction, your indulgence, your disregard, that this human had to find a way to call for power, find a way to summon powerful spirits, find a way to help you incompetent guys!"

"It is because of your incompetence, your inaction, that you cannot protect this school, so he found a way to save himself!"

"It's not him who is wrong, it's you! Your incompetence! Like this, you are worthy of calling yourselves guardians, worthy of calling yourselves 【heroes】!"

Wan Wan Wan Zhangmu was unable to refute Yu Beier's powerful mental pressure and words, while Jūdai's complexion turned iron-blue instantly when he heard "worthy of calling yourselves heroes."

If...

If Shen Leban was really like what this spirit said, then the fault lay with them, no, with him—

"Don't change the subject! You are the one who stole Shen Leban's body!" Tiancheng Kō refuted without any hesitation when the two couldn't speak, "What self-choice, self-summoning, do you think we are all idiots?

Even if he summoned you, even if he wanted to gain power to summon demons, the one who truly stole his body is you!

Where is the core problem, do you think I can't think of it?

Don't whitewash yourself, demon! I won't fall for your tricks!"

Can't even affect his mentality like this?

Yu Beier's third eye examined Tiancheng Kō from all angles, and she couldn't help but be somewhat incredulous.

Is the evidence insufficient?

She couldn't help but reveal a cruel and excited smile.

Then... continue!
