Chapter 1015: Berserker

【Heavy Warrior, DEF 1200】

Although Jack predicted it, it seemed he didn't predict it completely. Copy Yusei did indeed set a defensive monster with battle destruction resistance, but it also possessed the ability to be immune to battle damage. Therefore, even Strong Wind Dragon, which possessed piercing ability, could not break through this line of defense.

The whirlwind blasted by Strong Wind Dragon swept through, and thousands of wind blades bombarded Heavy Warrior's body. But the warrior's body was like a rock, carrying a giant rock that looked like an entire apron on its head, stubbornly blocking Strong Wind Dragon's storm. The wind blades cut thousands of cracks on that apron, but failed to shake it at all.

But Jack followed with a cold sneer.

"If you think you can keep this monster for the next turn's Synchro by doing this, you are very wrong!

Then I will activate the Spell Card 'Smashing Ground' from my hand!

This card destroys the monster with the highest DEF on the opponent's field!"

Smashing Ground can only destroy face-up monsters. When Heavy Warrior was face-down in the previous turn, Smashing Ground could not select it as a target. But at this moment, Heavy Warrior had been flipped face-up due to Strong Wind Dragon's attack, so it naturally became the target of Smashing Ground.

I saw a crack in the ground spreading forward from the side of Jack's D-Wheel, extending all the way to under Heavy Warrior. The warrior suddenly lost its footing, tilted, and fell into the crack opened in the ground, soon shattering into fragments within it.

"Turn end!"

Jack clenched his fist and said.

"Don't say it's a fake; even facing the real Yusei now, I will never lose again! I can immediately beat a guy like you back to your original form in two or three moves!"

Copy Yusei ignored his provocation, just as steady as the original, and said: "My turn, draw."

He inserted a card from his hand into the Duel Disk.

"Activate Spell Card 'Tuning'. Add one Tuner monster with 'Synchron' in its name from my Deck to my hand."

Copy Yusei drew a card that popped out from the Deck. After drawing it into his hand, the top three cards of the Deck popped out with a click.

"I add 'Junk Synchron' from my Deck to my hand." Copy Yusei explained, "After that, send cards from the top of my Deck to the Graveyard equal to the level of the added monster."

Junk Synchron is Level 3, so I send three cards from the top of my Deck to the Graveyard. (Original effect)

No matter how many times he saw it, You Xuan couldn't help but think in his heart that the "activation cost" of the original Tuning was really powerful; he could dump three or five cards into the Graveyard in one breath.

"Normal Summon 'Junk Synchron'!"

Yusei's most classic iconic Tuner, a small warrior with short arms and legs and orange armor, a small head and huge goggles, looking quite serious.

【Junk Synchron, ATK 1300】

"When Junk Synchron is successfully summoned, Special Summon a Level 2 or lower monster from the Graveyard."

Copy Yusei waved his hand again.

"Special Summon 'Heavy Warrior' from the Graveyard in Defense Position back to the field."

Junk Synchron extended his right palm, and the ground beside him cracked. Heavy Warrior, with an apron on its head, also returned to the field. But at this moment, its body was covered in scars, and the cracks hadn't recovered, looking like it wasn't in very good condition.

【Heavy Warrior, DEF 1200】

Jack snorted: "However, the effect of a monster summoned by 'Junk Synchron' is negated. Even if Heavy Warrior is revived, it's just small fry!"

Copy Yusei closed his eyes briefly and said: "You are indeed quite familiar with Yusei Fudo's Deck. But even if you are familiar with it, you can't change the outcome of defeat.

Just like sometimes, even if a person knows that the road ahead leads to destruction, they still have to follow this road, the sadness of it."

Jack frowned: "What are you trying to say?"

"Nothing." Copy Yusei didn't say more and returned to the duel.

"Next, I Special Summon 'Junk Servant' from my hand!"

What was summoned was a warrior in junk armor, with a wide, asymmetrical shoulder armor on one side, and the head, especially the eyes, also had an asymmetrical structure.

【Junk Servant, ATK 1500】

"When there is a face-up 'Junk' monster on my field, this card can be Special Summoned from my hand."

Copy Yusei pressed his left hand on the D-Wheel handle and raised his right arm high.

"Then Level 3 Tuner monster 'Junk Synchron', Level 4 'Junk Servant', tuning!"

"The gathering anger will lodge the ghost god's soul into the selfless warrior, become the shining path of light! Synchro Summon—"

"—Junk Berserker!!!"

Junk Synchron soared into the air and aggregated into a Synchro star ring, and the junk armor was cast into ferocious armor in the Synchro light ring. With a metal-tearing battle roar, Junk Berserker stepped on the summoning circle and leaped out. Crimson chest armor, hydraulic pipes exposed at the joints spraying steam, a two-meter-long serrated giant blade, and most terrifying was the pair of ghostly, eerie green eyes, like a furious soul imprisoned in a steel shell.

【Junk Berserker, ATK 2700】

Copy Yusei: "Junk Berserker, effect activates.

Banish one monster with 'Junk' in its name from my Graveyard, and make one monster on the opponent's field lose ATK equal to the ATK of the banished monster!"

Copy Yusei revealed the monster card banished from the Graveyard.

"I banish 'Junk Servant' from the Graveyard, and make Strong Wind Dragon lose the ATK of Junk Servant, which is 1500 ATK!"

The phantom of Junk Servant flashed by, as if energy was filled into the Berserker. Berserker's giant blade slashed, and the energy sank into Strong Wind Dragon, which was immediately visibly weakened by a large chunk.

【Strong Wind Dragon, ATK 3400 → ATK 1900】

"Battle." Copy Yusei said, "Junk Berserker, attack 'Strong Wind Dragon'!"

Junk Berserker's serrated giant blade suddenly erupted with blinding red light, and the spark plugs embedded in the blade all operated at overload. When it stepped on the ground and rushed forward, it dragged out afterimages of rusted metal. The hurricane stirred up by Strong Wind Dragon was split vertically the moment it touched the blade, and the serrated blade precisely cut into the dragon scales, drawing a straight golden crack from the jawbone to the dragon tail.

The dragon body was split in two, and after a thousandth of a second of silence, the entire dragon exploded into a sky full of rotating cyan crystals. Each fragment continued to explode twice during the fall, finally turning into an emerald storm that shrouded half of the battlefield.

【Jack, LP 4000 → LP 3200】

"Ugh..."

Jack groaned, and the Wheel of Fortune swayed in the wind, involuntarily slowing down. A few seconds later, he stabilized his direction, accelerated again, and continued to chase.

"This impact..."

Jack frowned.

Sure enough, it was the same as when he fought the copy version of himself before. Although it might not be fatal, it was a real impact damage, which could cause huge damage to the duelist.

Copy Yusei: "Set two cards, turn end."
