Chapter 184: The Might of the Cyber Blade

【Jinzo, ATK 2400】

For its first appearance in Fujiki You Xuan's hands, Jinzo seemed to have made up its mind to brew the most domineering arrival to fill the card's face for its debut.

Only to see the mist rolling on the field, the red light shot from its eyes penetrated the fog, the metal body walked out slowly, the steel king's arms were crossed, and its eyes looked like it was looking down from above, exuding the dominance of a superior, with electric light overflowing from its whole body.

The eyes that looked down on the heroes seemed to be saying: A powerful master plus me, the two of us combined are already invincible.

Now that I, Jinzo, have descended, it is almost equivalent to victory being grasped in hand!

Kohara's face became a bit ugly.

Didn't expect it to be Jinzo. In this way, wouldn't their powerful back row be just a mere formality...

"Activate Spell card 'Metamorphosis'." Fujiki You Xuan said lightly, "Offer one monster on your field as an offering, and special summon a Fusion monster of the same level as that monster."

"I offer the Level 6 'Jinzo' as an offering!"

Jinzo, who was rubbing his hands and preparing to perform well in his debut: "???"

Nani!? Offer me as an offering?

No way, Boss, this is my first time! How can you treat my first time like this?

But the Spell card had already emerged, and Jinzo's figure dissipated into light spots in a burst of golden light.

Oohara and Kohara were also dumbfounded for a while.

Offer Jinzo... as an offering?

And there's such a good thing?

Then no matter what appears next, wouldn't their back row Traps all come back to life?

"According to the effect of Metamorphosis, special summon from the Fusion Deck in Defense Position—"

"—Level 6, Cyber Blader!"

The Cyber Blader after being materialized was adjusted to 7 stars, but it was 6 stars in the original work. Precisely because of this, Asuka in the original work often equipped the Spell card "Fusion Weapon," which could only be equipped to Fusion monsters of 6 stars or less, to Cyber Blader. This combination naturally couldn't be reproduced after being materialized.

【Cyber Blader, DEF 800】

Asuka: "???"

What is this sudden change in style?

She wasn't surprised that Fujiki You Xuan had his own cards. Because he had been doing research, she knew that Fujiki You Xuan also had many Cyber-style cards in his hands.

However, who could have imagined that his Ojama lockdown tactic would suddenly burst out with something that was completely out of style?

But associating it with the effect of her own Fusion ace card, she suddenly seemed to understand something, and was so shocked by this possibility she instantly thought of that she couldn't help but open her mouth wide...

"Muda!" Kohara said, "No matter what monster it is, as long as it's trapped, it's all the same! Oohara, activate Trap!"

Oohara: "Activate Trap, Bottomless Trap Hole! Destroy and banish the summoned monster with ATK 1500 or more!"

Bottomless Trap Hole emerged under Cyber Blader's feet. However, Cyber Blader only glanced at it through her goggles and swept her blade across the ice under her feet. The trap hole closed immediately, disappearing without a trace as if it had never existed.

"Why... why!?" Kohara was shocked, "It clearly activated successfully, your monster should have been destroyed..."

"Cyber Blader is a monster that gains different effects based on the number of monsters on the opponent's field."

Fujiki You Xuan explained calmly.

"When there are only three monsters on the opponent's field, all effects of the opponent's Spells, Traps, and monster cards are negated!" (Old version effect)

"What!?"

Both of them almost jumped up, their eyes wide open.

All effects negated?

Then what's the point of fighting?

The new effect of Cyber Blader after being adjusted is that it can only "negate the effects activated by the opponent," and effects that have a continuous effect like Continuous Spells are effective.

But the Cyber Blader in the anime is consistent with the old version effect before adjustment, where all effects of cards held by the opponent are negated, which is almost an absolute suppression that cannot be passed.

This is also why, although Cyber Blader performed mediocrely in the anime, it once became the core of a vicious lockdown deck in the history of Yu-Gi-Oh after being materialized into the real card environment.

The concept of this lockdown deck is very simple, using the common Ojama deck for lockdown, combined with the absolute lockdown formed by the three effects of "Cyber Blader."

The concept is also very simple to achieve. Send the opponent three Ojama Tokens to satisfy the condition of "three monsters on the field." Then use "Ground Collapse" or the effect of the Ojama Fusion monster to seal the remaining two squares. In this way, as long as Cyber Blader is on the field, an ultimate sealing formation is formed.

And the seniors who invented this move back then were even more "anti-social" than Fujiki You Xuan.

After the seniors back then discovered this combination, they used the rule loopholes of the Yu-Gi-Oh tournament at that time to build a deck called TOD (Time Over Death), an ultimate self-seclusion deck.

Using Ojama lockdown plus Cyber Blader to achieve LOCK, once the lockdown formation is achieved, the opponent has nothing they can do, and can only draw one card each turn and stare blankly.

At this time, some students will ask, then how do you win yourself?

The answer is, Low-play with the opponent.

Early Yu-Gi-Oh didn't have a surrender rule, and the best-of-three tournament had a 40-minute match time limit. If the total match time exceeded the 40-minute limit, then the side with higher Life Points when time ran out would directly win the entire best-of-three match.

And TOD was a deck that used this loophole.

As long as the lockdown formation was achieved, they would completely give up attacking and simply drag out time through means like recovering Life Points. Dragging it until the match time ended, they could directly achieve a rule-based victory—and not just a single duel, but the victory of the entire match.

The disgusting degree of this rule-killing even the ten-thousand-year-old forbidden card Victory Dragon would have to bow down to. And it is conceivable that players who had the courage to use this ultimate self-seclusion deck that forcibly dragged the opponent to sit in jail for forty minutes must have been mentally prepared to be physically dueled before they started...

"Damn it..." Kohara gritted his teeth.

Oohara was desperate: "Magic, Trap, and monster effects are all negated forever, then aren't we..."

"Wait, don't rush." Kohara gritted his teeth, "Cyber Blader's effect is that when there are three monsters on the opponent's field, all effects are negated; it should only be effective when there are three monsters.

In other words, as long as we summon any monster next turn, the number of monsters on the field becomes four, and the lockdown will disappear..."

"That's it!" Oohara suddenly realized.

At the same time, he couldn't help but admire Kohara; he found the blind spot immediately in such a situation...

Fujiki You Xuan smiled: "Then, the effect of the Trap card 'Ojama Trio' in the graveyard. Banish this card existing in the graveyard from the game, and special summon two 'Ojama' monsters from the deck.

I special summon the 'Ojama Yellow' and 'Ojama Green' I just shuffled back from the deck."

【Ojama Yellow, DEF 1000】

【Ojama Green, DEF 1000】

"Then activate the Spell card 'Polymerization', and fuse the 'Ojama Yellow' and 'Ojama Green' on the field. Fusion Summon—"

In the vortex of fusion appeared silver armor, deep green cloak fluttering, a comedy knight with snail-like eyes and holding a shield landed while spinning.

"Fusion Summon, Ojama Knight!"

【Ojama Knight, DEF 2500】

"Ojama Knight's effect!" Fujiki You Xuan said, "While this card is on the field, designate up to two monster zones on the opponent's field that cannot be used.

Therefore, seal the remaining two monster zones on your field!"

Oohara: "..."

Kohara: "..."

What the f*ck did you say?

Ojama Knight waved his hand, and two more clones jumped out. The images of Ojama Yellow and Green sat on the remaining two squares on the opponent's field, directly sealing them.

Both were stunned instantly.

At this time, there were exactly three monsters on their field, and the remaining two squares were also sealed. And they couldn't use the effect of any card...

Oohara couldn't help but say: "Kohara..."

Although he didn't finish speaking, the implication was obviously to ask, can we be carried away directly now?

"Damn it, not over yet." Kohara gritted his teeth, his gaze looking at the Material Dragon on their field.

They still had Material Dragon, they still had a chance!

Although "Megamorph" was also negated and Material Dragon's ATK dropped back to 2400, it was enough to break the self-seclusion core "Cyber Blader" on the opposite side. As long as this lockdown could be broken...

"Submarineroid changes back to Attack Position." Fujiki You Xuan said, "Direct attack."

Another torpedo hit the face, and the three-dimensional projection explosion blew Oohara gray-faced.

【Oohara, LP 2700 -> LP 1900】

"Then Submarineroid changes back to Defense Position according to its own effect."

Fujiki You Xuan drew another card.

"Set one card, turn end."

"Draw card!" Kohara shouted.

Oohara drew the card as instructed, then followed the instruction: "Use 'Material Dragon' to attack 'Cyber Blader'!"

"That won't do." Fujiki You Xuan snapped his fingers, "Activate face-down card, Continuous Trap 'Gravity Bind', all monsters of Level 4 or higher cannot attack."

Kohara vomited blood.

Numb, the person was completely numb.

The moment the attack was sealed, it basically sentenced them to death.

This seal of Gravity Bind was almost unsolvable. Under the suppression of "Cyber Blader," whether it was Mystical Space Typhoon, Heavy Storm, or Harpie's Feather Duster, they would all be negated; they couldn't solve this attack seal.

And if they didn't break Cyber Blader, they couldn't activate any card effects...

Even if they drew a high-level monster again and offered Material Dragon to summon a new monster, it wouldn't make any sense. The number of monsters was still three, and Cyber Blader's lockdown was still effective.

And Ojama Tokens couldn't be used as offerings for Tribute Summon, so trying to reduce the number by offering two monsters on the field wouldn't work either...

All the opponent's monsters on the field were in Defense Position, so committing suicide by crashing into them with tokens wouldn't work either...

Some people are still alive, but they are actually already dead.

"My turn, draw card." Fujiki You Xuan revealed the card in his hand, "Activate Spell card 'Monster Reborn', revive 'Crossbow Archer' from the graveyard, in Defense Position."

【Crossbow Archer, DEF 1000】

Everyone: "..."

<>.

It was obvious that it wouldn't be long before Oohara and Kohara would be stabbed to death by Crossbow Archer one shot at a time.

Death by a thousand cuts.

However, they didn't wait for that time in the end.

Because seeing that Kohara had already reached the edge of losing control, Oohara, afraid that he would do something stupid, hurriedly surrendered and admitted defeat while there was still time.

Otherwise, he was afraid his teammate would go crazy.
