Chapter 1466

"Special Summon, Stardust Xiaolong!"

The little dragon, flicking its long tail, flew out from Yusei's deck; it was also the final component he needed.

【Stardust Xiaolong, ATK 100】

"Furthermore, the monster effect of 'Stardust Trail', which was just used as a Synchro Material, also activates," Yusei continued. "When Stardust Trail is successfully used as a Synchro Material for a Warrior, Synchron, or Stardust Synchro monster, I can Special Summon one Stardust Token to my field!"

Warrior, Synchron, and Stardust basically cover all the categories of Synchro monsters Yusei uses. Plus, this Stardust Trail looks basically like a cosplay of Aki, and from the card art to the effect, it's clearly exclusive to Yusei's deck.

Because it was sent to the Graveyard as Synchro Material for Stardust Dragon just now, it naturally satisfied the activation condition. The phantom of Aki, having already left the field, drifted across the sky above the field once more, as if leaving behind a transparent trail; the remaining stardust quickly condensed into a small token on the field.

【Stardust Token, ATK 0】

"With this, the preparations are complete."

Yusei took a deep breath and briefly closed his eyes.

The Duel Runner was speeding, and the gale was howling. But the air currents hitting his face seemed to have unknowingly become warm and scorching, and the Dragon Mark on his arm was flickering, as if an inexhaustible power was constantly surging into his body through this red mark.

"Everyone... I can feel it, everyone's power, the power of my friends."

Yusei opened his eyes. At this moment, all the Dragon Marks appeared behind him, combining into a complete, circular Red Dragon totem. His eyes seemed to reflect that totem, and the burning energy seemed to want to merge him and the Duel Runner into one.

"Even across dimensions, across the barriers of space, our bonds still connect me to my most important companions. This is the power that belongs to us Signers... to us 5D's!"

Yusei raised the Dragon Mark on his hand.

"This power is the reason why you cannot possibly win against me, the reason why you cannot win against any one of us!"

An expression of anger appeared on Yugo's face; the rising fury seemed to transform into flames, manifesting a certain enormous phantom above his head, looking just like Z-ARC in a rage.

"What did you say!?"

Yusei didn't bother to respond, only saying to himself: "Level 1, Tuner monster 'Jixinglong'!"

"Level 8, 'Stardust Dragon', Level 1, 'Stardust Xiaolong',"

"Level 1, 'Stardust Token'! Tuning!"

【1+1+1+8=11】

The Synchro foundation of the Savior series is 'Savior Dragon', but Jixinglong is an evolved form of Savior Dragon, and its card name can be treated as Savior Dragon.

Jixinglong flapped its wings and soared high, suddenly stretching out in mid-air; its small body seemed to expand dozens of times in an instant, like a spaceship carrying dreams and hopes about to rush toward the far end of the galaxy, wrapping Stardust Dragon within it.

"The gathered wishes will become a newborn shining star, turning into a road of glittering light!" Yusei shouted. "Synchro Summon! Be born, Shooting Quasar Dragon!!!"

The shining red radiance pierced through heaven and earth, and the Savior's Dragon Mark echoed between heaven and earth. At this moment, Yusei himself seemed to have turned into starlight, becoming light and heat, becoming a stardust storm in the galaxy; the starlight constructed an ultimate cycle, and a tangible silver galaxy poured down from the other end.

A dragon's roar came from the high heavens; pure white crystals condensed on its giant wings, flowing with cold radiance. Ripples of light undulated over its slender and majestic sacred dragon body.

【Shooting Quasar Dragon, ATK 4000】

"Shooting Quasar Dragon..."

Yugo's eyes, flashing with red light, clearly reflected this dragon.

"So that's it, this is the incarnation of that Red Dragon spirit I saw before. To actually possess such a powerful spirit..."

He was silent for a moment.

In this Arc-V dimension, he, Z-ARC, was the absolute King, the one and only God in the entire dimension. He had never encountered a spirit he felt was stronger than himself, or one that could pose a threat to him.

And at this very moment, this was the first time such a thought had emerged in his mind.

A spirit stronger than himself, one that might even threaten him.

... A God-level spirit.

"Are there still spirits of this level in other dimensions?" Yugo narrowed his eyes.

It made Z-ARC look forward even more to the myriad universes outside and the countless possibilities waiting for him to conquer.

His Duel Runner was still speeding ahead; he turned his head back and sneered: "But even so, Shooting Quasar Dragon's ATK is only 4000. But did you forget?"

"At the start of this turn, your Junk Archer gave Crystal Wing 2300 points of ATK!"

【Crystal Wing Synchro Dragon, ATK 5300】

And he didn't even mention that Crystal Wing Synchro Dragon has the ability to absorb the ATK of an opponent's monster when battling a monster of Level 5 or higher.

Yugo's mouth curled up, revealing a cold sneer.

Although it was rare to summon a spirit that looked decent, it was a pity that he couldn't be defeated by such things.

However, Yusei immediately followed up by saying: "Then I activate Shooting Quasar Dragon's effect!"

"Once per turn, I choose any one effect monster on the opponent's field and negate that monster's effect!"

The smile on Yugo's face vanished instantly: "Nani? Effect negated?"

"That's right, Crystal Wing Synchro Dragon's effect has already been activated against 'Junk Archer' this turn, so you cannot use Crystal Wing to negate Shooting Quasar's effect!" Yusei shouted. "Crystal Wing's effect is negated!"

By the way, Shooting Quasar doesn't have the 'until the end of this turn' restriction like other similar negation effects.

A monster negated by Shooting Quasar is permanently negated as long as it remains on the field.

"Therefore, Crystal Wing's effect that boosted itself returns to normal!" Yusei said.

【Crystal Wing Synchro Dragon, ATK 5300 → ATK 3000】

"Battle!" Yusei said. "Shooting Quasar Dragon, attack Crystal Wing Synchro Dragon!"

A band of light, as if symbolizing the trajectories of countless stars, lit up and circled around Shooting Quasar Dragon.

As the shining dragon soared into the sky, all the starlight from the bands of light seemed to converge upon it, finally turning into a rushing torrent that pierced and annihilated Crystal Wing Synchro Dragon in one strike.

【Yugo, LP 4000 → LP 3000】

The Duel Runner shook violently, the chassis swayed, and the Duel Runner traced an S-shaped path on the track. But Yugo on the bike remained unmoved.

"Shooting Quasar Dragon can make additional attacks in one turn besides its normal attack, up to the number of Stardust Dragon-related Synchro monsters in my Graveyard."

The Stardust Dragon in the Graveyard briefly appeared, seemingly turning into power and merging into Shooting Quasar's body.

"Shooting Quasar Dragon, second attack!" Yusei said. "Direct attack!"

A creation-like wave of light surged over; Yugo looked up at the radiance, slightly curled his lip, and gave a light tsk.

Boom! 【Yugo, LP 3000 → LP 0】
