Chapter 1512

"My turn, draw."

It was the Monitor's turn.

Fujiki You Xuan narrowed his eyes slightly, feeling a bit curious in his heart, wanting to see what deck this so-called city Monitor would use.

And this answer was soon revealed.

"Activate Spell card 'Graceful Charity', draw three cards from the Deck, then discard two cards from my hand."

The Monitor drew cards and then discarded two cards.

Monitor: "Normal Summon 'Deep Sea Diva'!"

A noble Sea Queen was summoned to the field, her upper body was a slender woman, while her lower body was a fish tail, surprisingly a half-human, half-fish merman. She was summoned to the field, waving her fish tail, her figure floating lightly in the air, as if in water.

【Deep Sea Diva, ATK 200】

"When this card is successfully summoned, I can activate its effect to special summon one Level 3 or lower Sea Serpent-type monster from the Deck."

The Monitor said.

At the same time, the Diva on his field raised her head high and opened her mouth, and in an instant, it was like magic sound pouring into the ears. That sharp voice was like piercing the clouds, the high pitch making people's eardrums buzz.

At the same time, a stream of water shot out from the Monitor's Deck, fell onto the field, and transformed into a merman with thick lips. Although it stood upright like a human, its whole body was covered in fish scales, and the weapon in its hand looked like a trident, but the trident was held flat in its hand, and it had a scope, and looking closely, it was actually a sniper rifle.

【Atlantean Marksman, ATK 140】

Fujiki You Xuan held his chin: "Atlantean, huh."

He was not unfamiliar with this deck. Atlantean was a deck that had a close connection with another Sea Serpent-type theme deck "Mermail" in the story setting background, and it was once a top-tier mainstream deck.

Monitor: "Then Normal Summon 'Atlantean Heavy Infantry' from my hand."

Another thick-lipped Sea Serpent warrior, but this time it didn't hold a trident sniper rifle, but a sharp long sword with a more normal art style.

【Atlantean Heavy Infantry, ATK 140】

"Then release the 'Atlantean Marksman' and 'Atlantean Heavy Infantry' on my field!"

The Monitor showed a card in his hand.

"This card can be special summoned directly from the hand by releasing two Water-attribute monsters on my field! Descend—Citadel Whale!"

A large amount of seawater appeared out of thin air on the Monitor's field, the water surged, and a giant shadow rose from the sea. It was a giant shadow like a steel fortress, shaped like a whale, with a conical horn on its head, and a fortress full of heavy cannons on its back, looking like a submarine fortress built in the shape of a giant whale.

【Citadel Whale, ATK 2350】

Seeing this giant whale, the others didn't have much reaction, only Yugi showed surprise.

"Citadel Whale? Isn't this..."

The ghost-state Dark Yugi floated out and nodded: "Yes, it's very similar to Mako Tsunami's Fortress Whale. It's probably some kind of evolved form."

Mako Tsunami was a duelist who used the "Umi" deck, and had fought Yugi and Joey in the DM era, so he could be considered an old acquaintance. And the Monitor using what looked like the same Umi deck as him was likely an upgraded version in the new era.

And Fujiki You Xuan knew that the opponent's deployment was just beginning.

"The effect of Citadel Whale activates!" The Monitor said, "When this card is successfully special summoned, set one 'Sea Stealth Attack' from the Deck to my backrow!"

Saying that, the card he searched for automatically popped out of his Deck, which he drew into his hand, and briefly displayed it—it looked like a Trap card, and then he slapped it into the backrow.

Dark Yugi frowned: "AIBO, did you see the card art of that 'Sea Stealth Attack' just now?"

"Yes," Yugi nodded, "It looks very much like Mako Tsunami's soul card 'The Legendary Fisherman.' Back then, Tsunami used The Legendary Fisherman to hide in the sea to sneak attack monsters, which put Joey in a tough fight. I've heard of it."

The card art of this trap also looked like a tribute to that famous scene, as if the duel scene between Tsunami and Joey back then had been moved directly onto the card.

"It's not over yet," the Monitor continued, "And the effect of 'Atlantean Marksman' that was released just now to summon Citadel Whale also activates."

"When 'Atlantean Marksman' is sent to the Graveyard to activate the effect of a Water-attribute monster, I can choose one face-down card on the opponent's field and destroy it!"

Judai said: "Eh? Does releasing it for the summon of Citadel Whale count as 'sent to the Graveyard to activate an effect'?"

The Monitor said faintly: "Citadel Whale's ability to special summon itself is an 'activated' effect, so of course it counts."

Saying that, he raised his hand and pointed at the set card in Fujiki You Xuan's backrow.

"Destroy the card on the right of your backrow."

The Marksman, who had already left the field, reappeared, crouching on the ground, holding his trident-shaped sniper rifle, locking onto Fujiki You Xuan's backrow.

"Negated," Fujiki You Xuan snapped his fingers.

At this moment, the holy snow-white Bai Bai Linglong on his field let out a high-pitched dragon roar. Invisible sound waves spread to the entire field, instantly forming some kind of invisible restriction, the entire field was immediately bound, and the Marksman who was aiming suddenly twitched all over, passed through a pale blue current, and his body soon disappeared.

Monitor: "What?"

"The effect of Blue-Eyes Bai Bai Linglong," Fujiki You Xuan said, "Once per turn, when the effect of a card in the Graveyard activates, I can activate it."

"Blue-Eyes Bai Bai Linglong can negate that effect."

Fujiki You Xuan paused for a moment, smiled and said: "The guys who are dead should just lie honestly in the grave, don't cause trouble for me."

"6

.. That doesn't matter," the Monitor quickly adjusted, "Then next is the effect of 'Mermail Abyssdine' in my hand."

"By discarding one Water-attribute monster other than this card from my hand, I can activate this effect to special summon this card from my hand."

The Monitor said, showing a Water-attribute monster in his hand.

"I discard the Water-attribute 'Atlantean Heavy Infantry' from my hand and special summon Abyssdine!"

At the same time, another stream of water was excited, fell onto the field, and this time turned into a green merman, wearing armor inlaid with red gems.

【Mermail Abyssdine, ATK 1700】

"The effect of Mermail Abyssdine activates," the Monitor said, "When this card is successfully special summoned using its own effect, I add one Level 4 or lower 'Mermail' monster from the Deck to my hand."

The Monitor said, and another card popped out of the Deck, which he drew into his hand.

"I add 'Mermail Abyssgunde' from my Deck to my hand!"

Following that, the Atlantean Heavy Infantry that was just sent to the Graveyard also reappeared out of thin air.

"The effect of Heavy Infantry that was sent to the Graveyard for summoning Abyssdine also activates," the Monitor said, "When this card is sent to the Graveyard for the activation of a Water-attribute monster's effect, destroy one face-up card on the field!"

He pointed at the Bai Bai Linglong on Fujiki You Xuan's field.

"Destroy Blue-Eyes Bai Bai Linglong!"
