Chapter 1119: Heavenly Canopy Demon Star

V looked down at the Magic Card in his hand, took a deep breath, and then slowly raised it above his head.

Before this, only his brother IV had tested this card. It was power from an alternate world called Barian, containing powerful Chaos energy. As a researcher, V had long warned that this card could be dangerous, but their father did not care.

Thanks to IV's sacrifice, V had collected and organized the data IV left behind after his last use, and subsequently made further developmental safety measures, which was why he could better control this card now.

Of course, time was tight, and he had only managed to make some simple emergency safeguards. It was still very dangerous to use this card with a mortal body, but he could no longer worry about that now.

V clearly realized that the enemy he was facing this time was also no small matter. The blond youth before him was likely not an ordinary duelist in this dimension either, and the fact that the opponent had just casually tossed a coin while chatting and sent his Dyson Sphere flying had also shocked V a bit.

The opponent before him was definitely not an enemy he could defeat while holding back. He had come here behind his father's back to rescue his two captured brothers; if he were to get himself caught as well...

Having made up his mind, he no longer hesitated. V raised his head and finally played the card in his hand.

"Rank-Up-Magic—"

"—Barian's Force!"

The moment the Magic Card activated, the power of Chaos instantly enveloped V, and a massive, overwhelming force surged into the sky, like flames burning the firmament.

V: "Barian's Force can use an Xyz Monster on my field as Xyz Material to Xyz Summon a monster that is one Rank higher and has 'Chaos' in its name!"

Jonouchi: "A Rank-Up!?"

He couldn't help but look up at the giant sphere in mid-air.

Dyson Sphere, this behemoth still needs to Rank-Up?

V: "Star that covers the sky, all of creation is contained within you! Now, descend here—"

"—CNo. 9 Heavenly Canopy Demon Star, Chaos Dyson Sphere!"

Countless purple-black veins suddenly split open on the surface of the Dyson Sphere, wriggling and expanding like blood vessels. The originally cold metal shell rose and fell like biological tissue. The golden energy patterns were stained a murky dark purple, and the core in the center of the sphere contracted and deformed violently. Five giant tentacles tore through the metal shell from within and drilled out. The entire structure seemed to exhibit characteristics of a fusion between machine and organism, looking like a giant pentagram. Chaos energy formed a distorted halo around it, causing even space to wrinkle unnaturally.

【CNo. 9 Heavenly Canopy Demon Star, Chaos Dyson Sphere, ATK 3600】

Rank 10, Chaos Dyson Sphere!

"And the moment it became Chaos-fied, I activated the Quick-Play Magic 'Very Hungry Stomach'. By sending the activated Rank-Up-Magic 'Barian's Force' to the Graveyard, I recover 1000 Life Points."

【V, LP 2000 → LP 3000】

"It really did become Chaos-fied..." Jonouchi was also a bit startled looking at the giant, distorted Chaos Dyson Sphere in the air, but he quickly calmed down and said, "But even if it's Chaos Dyson Sphere, its power is no match for the strengthened Red-Eyes."

"Too naive!"

V shouted.

"Battle! Attack 'Red-Eyes Black Dragon' with 'CNo. 9 Heavenly Canopy Demon Star, Chaos Dyson Sphere'!"

Jonouchi asked in surprise: "You're attacking even though you know your ATK is insufficient?"

He was surprised in his heart, knowing that this Chaos Number monster must have hidden a dangerous effect again, but without information, he couldn't think of a way to deal with it for the moment.

In any case, he should first do what he had to do.

"Activate face-down card!" Jonouchi shouted, "Continuous Trap 'Lucky Punch'!"

Three coins spun in mid-air. As soon as V saw the coins, his head started to ache again.

Coins again? Is this guy serious?

"The effect of Lucky Punch is, when the opponent declares an attack, I can toss three coins. If all three are heads, I can draw three cards from my Deck!"

V pondered.

That really is a brutal effect. "Then what if it doesn't land?" V asked back.

"If I just don't get three heads, then nothing happens," Jonouchi said. "But if all three results are tails, then this card is destroyed, and when this face-up card is destroyed, I take 6000 points of damage."

"I see." V nodded in understanding.

The probability of three heads and three tails is equal. If it's heads, he draws three at once; if it's tails, he directly self-destructs and kills himself.

Sure enough, this guy really seems to have absolute confidence in his own luck. Always using these all-or-nothing self-destruct coin cards...

Then the next moment, V widened his eyes and really saw the three coins flip a few times and land lightly.

It really was three heads, damn it.

"Yosh! Three heads!" Jonouchi snapped his fingers, "I draw three cards from my Deck!"

V: "..."

Now he suddenly didn't doubt that this person had a secret deal with the Goddess of Luck. He guessed that the Goddess of Luck was probably in this person's bed.

It was too outrageous.

But the battle was still ongoing. Sure enough, even if Dyson Sphere became Chaos-fied, it was no match for Red-Eyes. Red-Eyes fired a Black Fire Blast in return, which exploded violently on the surface of the Dyson Sphere.

V: "CNo. monsters cannot be destroyed by battle except by other Number monsters!"

"But the battle damage still has to be taken," Jonouchi said.

【V, LP 3000 → LP 1800】

Jonouchi frowned slightly.

Going as far as to take damage for a self-destruct attack—even if the Number monster couldn't be destroyed by battle, this was too reckless, wasn't it?

Sure enough, V then revealed the reason: "Activate the effect of Chaos Dyson Sphere! When this card battles an opponent's monster, after damage calculation, I can absorb that monster as Xyz Material!" (Original effect)

Jonouchi: "Nani!?"

In fact, this effect was actually buffed in the physical card game. In the physical game, Chaos Dyson Sphere can absorb the opponent without damage calculation when it battles, but in the anime, it had to be after battle damage calculation.

Regardless, Red-Eyes Black Dragon, which had been arrogant just a second ago, immediately wilted. Without a word, it was bound by red energy chains shot out by the Heavenly Canopy Demon Star and was forcibly dragged toward the Chaos Dyson Sphere.

Red-Eyes roared in unwillingness, but in the end, it only turned into a spinning red ball of light, circling beside the Dyson Sphere and becoming one of its two Xyz Materials.

"Not only that, absorbing Xyz Materials isn't just to get rid of your Red-Eyes," V shouted loudly. "Enter Main Phase 2, activate the other effect of Chaos Dyson Sphere!

Once per turn, during my Main Phase, I can inflict damage to the opponent equal to the number of this card's Xyz Materials x 500!"

The physical card was changed to number of Xyz Materials x 300.

Jonouchi's expression changed abruptly.

Including the Red-Eyes that was just swallowed, the Chaos Dyson Sphere now had two Xyz Materials, which meant 1000 points of damage.

【Jonouchi, LP 800】

Wouldn't this finish him off directly!? ===== CHAPTER 1120 =====
