Chapter 1507: Skip Force

"ZW - Leo Arms, halve the ATK of 'Raidraptor - Revolution Falcon' and negate its effect!"

Leo Arms slashed its greatsword through the air, and transparent blade energy surged out. The overbearing energy swept across Revolution Falcon. The raptor, which was gathering momentum and hadn't had time to dive down yet, immediately wilted, and its power seemed to have been weakened by a large margin.

【Raidraptor - Revolution Falcon, ATK 2000 → ATK 1000】

While its ATK was weakened, its effects were also negated—and both the effect of attacking all monsters and the effect of destroying monsters were negated. Revolution Falcon immediately turned into a toothless tiger, with no threat at all.

"Good!" Yuma smiled. "Now I don't have to fear this falcon."

"Too naive," Shun Kurosaki said coldly. "Did you think this was my last move? Did my Raidraptor evolution stop here?"

Yuma: "Oh, do you still have a backup plan?"

"Revolution Falcon is just a stepping stone in the evolution. My determination to protect 'the city' is not just to this extent!"

Shun Kurosaki shouted and raised his hand to play another card from his hand.

"Rank-Up-Magic 'Skip Force'!"

"Target one 'Raidraptor' monster on your field, and overlay a 'Raidraptor' monster 2 ranks higher than that monster on the target monster, treating it as a Xyz Summon to Rank-Up and transform!"

Yuma: "A Rank-Up-Magic that skips two ranks in one go?"

Astral: "Sure enough, this duelist is also an expert who has done a lot of research on Rank-Up."

"Using Skip Force, I Rank-Up the Rank 6 'Raidraptor - Revolution Falcon' on the field!" Shun Kurosaki shouted. "Brave and fearless falcon. Roll up the flames of anger and turn into a flash that burns even the earth! Rank-Up Xyz Change! Fly—Rank 8! Raidraptor - Satellite Cannon Falcon!"

The raptor that Rank-Up again took off like a white fighter jet, hitting the firmament, breaking through the clouds, flying out of the atmosphere, and then its wings unfurled, its steel body transformed, and in an instant it turned into a floating satellite.

【Raidraptor - Satellite Cannon Falcon, ATK 3000】

Astral: "Raidraptor, is there really no end to this guy's Rank-Up..."

"Not bad, my path of evolution has no end, just as my anger and determination to fight are infinite!" Shun Kurosaki shouted. "Activate the effect of Raidraptor - Satellite Cannon Falcon!

When this card is Xyz Summoned using a 'Raidraptor' monster as material, destroy all Spell and Trap Cards on the opponent's field!"

The storm of the satellite descended from the sky, towards Yuma's backrow—mainly his most critical ZEXAL

equipment "Master Tianma Twin Saber."

Once Master Tianma Twin Saber was lost, not only would the ATK of ZW - Leo Arms drop, but more importantly, Yuma would lose the monster effect negation that could be used twice in one turn.

Yuma: "Then the effect of Master Tianma Twin Saber! Once per turn, I can negate the activation of a monster effect!"

"Useless!" Shun Kurosaki shouted. "When Satellite Cannon Falcon activates the effect to destroy the opponent's backrow, the opponent cannot activate any Spell, Trap, or monster effects in response to the activation of this effect!"

"That's really sorry, but the effect of 'ZW - Master Tianma Twin Saber' doesn't need to be 'activated' at all," Yuma laughed. "Master Tianma Twin Saber can negate the activation of a monster effect once per turn while equipped. This effect doesn't enter a chain and doesn't require an 'activation' action; it can be applied directly."

Shun Kurosaki: "Nani?"

To be able to negate the activation of the opponent's effect without activating it, is there such an operation?

Shun really wanted to say that you weren't bluffing me, but unfortunately he had no evidence...

Simply put, although Master Tianma Twin Saber was a one-time negation, it was similar to a continuous effect in terms of judgment. That is, it could only negate monster effects; otherwise, if it were allowed to negate Spell Cards, it could even negate the pseudo-Speed 4 Super Polymerization.

Thus, even as strong as Satellite Cannon Falcon was, the backrow bombardment aimed at Master Tianma Twin Saber ultimately failed to take effect and was completely blocked.

"Then I will activate the other effect of 'Raidraptor - Satellite Cannon Falcon'," Shun Kurosaki said. "Satellite Cannon Falcon detaches one Xyz Material to target one face-up monster on the opponent's field, and that monster's ATK drops by 800 for each 'Raidraptor' monster in my Graveyard!"

One of the remaining materials was absorbed by the satellite high above, and the target moved rapidly on Yuma's field, soon locking onto the Titanic Galaxy on Yuma's field.

"The target I choose is 'Number 38: Hope Harbinger Dragon Titanic Galaxy'!" Shun Kurosaki shouted. "And with the detachment of this Xyz Material of Satellite Cannon Falcon, at this time, the Raidraptors in my Graveyard are: the initial 'Raidraptor - Vanishing Lanius' (three of them), and the 'Raidraptor - Rise Falcon' whose material was just detached, totaling four cards.

Each card makes the target monster's ATK drop by 800, so the ATK of 'Number 38: Hope Harbinger Dragon Titanic Galaxy' drops by a total of 3200!"

As he spoke, the shadows of the four Raidraptors appeared on the field, appeared in mid-air, and then were absorbed one by one into the satellite suspended high in the sky.

The energy column fell like a waterfall, slamming into Titanic Galaxy from outside the nine heavens. The giant dragon was covered in black smoke and let out a low roar; although it hadn't fallen yet, it was already gasping for breath, and its power seemed to be almost gone.

【Number 38: Hope Harbinger Dragon Titanic Galaxy, ATK 3000 → ATK 0】

"Dropped Titanic Galaxy's ATK to 0..." Astral murmured. "I see. On one hand, it's because Titanic Galaxy's ability to negate Spells every turn is what he fears most, and on the other hand, he is also aiming here as a breakthrough point, wanting to kill us within this turn?"

At this time, Yuma and Astral's Life Points were 2900, while Satellite Cannon's ATK was 3000. Locking onto Titanic Galaxy, whose ATK had already dropped to 0, this blow was enough to kill them.

But Shun Kurosaki didn't seem satisfied with this.

"It's not over yet, the anger of the raptors is far beyond this!" Shun Kurosaki shouted. "I will then activate the other effect of Rank-Up-Magic 'Raid Force' from the Graveyard!

When Rank-Up-Magic 'Raid Force' is in the Graveyard, banish this 'Raid Force' from the Graveyard and another 'Raidraptor' from your hand to add another Rank-Up-Magic from the Graveyard to your hand, except Rank-Up-Magic 'Raid Force'!"

Shun Kurosaki said, showing a Raidraptor from his hand and the "Raid Force" that had retreated from the Graveyard, and after banishing both cards, another Spell Card retreated from the Graveyard.

"I want to add Rank-Up-Magic 'Skip Force' from the Graveyard to my hand!"

Yuma: "Again!?" ===== CHAPTER 1508 =====
