What the hell kind of thing is that?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How the fuck can it one-card directly devour five of my Machine Emperors?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Swallows five monsters in one go, then immediately attacks face with 6000 attack—what the hell is this?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even more infuriating: as he watched Praxido get one-shot by the 6000-attack Fortress Dragon, his own teammate Luciano was doubled over laughing, tears streaming from his eyes, as if the very memory of his own recent one-shot by the Chimera Fortress Dragon had vanished.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Praxido’s face darkened: “Is it really that funny?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But no sooner had he spoken than Luciano laughed even harder. Even Jose, the most level-headed of the trio, who had been stern-faced moments before, suddenly let out a strange sound—as if he could barely hold it in.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Indeed, sharing is life’s greatest joy. True brothers don’t just share happiness—they share pain, or in this case, more accurately, transfer pain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When pain shifts from yourself to your teammate, you naturally become happy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Praxido, furious and resentful, muttered something incoherently. Though unclear, it was easy to guess he was complaining about this damn Fortress Dragon, claiming it unfairly countered his Machine Emperors, that devouring opponent’s materials was unjust, and victory was cheap.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You Xuan chuckled: “So, you use Machine Emperors to absorb Synchro monsters and call yourself a ‘Synchro Killer’—what’s the difference between that and my Fortress Dragon?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If you must find a difference, it’s just that the Fortress Dragon is easier to summon, devours far more materials, is simpler to use, and delivers far more brutal results.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But fundamentally, they’re the same: both target specific monsters and duelists, both are total bullies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You use your Synchro Killer to run rampant in this dimension—why can’t someone use a Machine Emperor Killer to run rampant over you?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Praxido remained enraged, but Jose clapped his shoulder and said calmly: “Enough. You’ve seen the gap in strength. This man truly is the messenger sent by the Divine.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if you refuse to admit it, his power now surpasses both yours and mine.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Praxido growled: “That’s not certain. If all three of us combine our full power—”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He fell silent, not continuing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But even with that hint, You Xuan understood his meaning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As previously stated, Jose, Praxido, and Luciano were originally one person, split into three robots. In their separated state, their power is naturally diminished; only when they merge back into their original form—Apollia—do they regain their complete personality, full memories, and full strength.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though each of them has been crushed individually, they still believe they’d have no chance of losing if they merged. As Apollia, their combined power would surge, their duelist fate would skyrocket, and their deck would unlock cards none of them currently possess.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now isn’t the time. The moment for merging hasn’t arrived.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You Xuan smiled: “If you want to challenge me, I’m ready anytime. Come alone, come all three together, or merge into one—I’ll take you all on.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The three exchanged glances, secretly startled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This man even knows they can merge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But upon reflection, since the Divine had ordered him to take the throne of Taiyi Emperor, knowing some of their inner secrets wasn’t strange. None of them asked further.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Alright, no objections. Then I’ll accept the position of Taiyi Emperor without modesty. I’ve said all I needed to say. You all have your own business.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You Xuan waved his hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Now, get to work—oh, wait. Before that.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He paused, revealing a knowing smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“First, send someone to guide me to the Taiyi Card Printing Factory and the Card Warehouse.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having become Taiyi Emperor, You Xuan immediately raided the local card warehouse, then scheduled a visit to the printing factory to oversee operations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Card printing is a technical craft, but You Xuan now had considerable experience.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>First, identify promising deck archetypes to develop. Then, set a broad direction, constantly guiding the team with ideas for series enhancements. Finally, find a duelist whose fate resonance matches the deck best and who has solid scientific ability to join the team.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Speaking of which, Fuxie—Wu Xing—was probably the most suitable person in Yu-Gi-Oh!’s history for this job. Fuxie was undoubtedly the top tech genius among all protagonists, clearly gifted in research.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yes, Wu Xing was nicknamed Fuxie because his hairstyle looked exactly like a crab.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You Xuan felt his relationship with Wu Xing and others was still decent; later, he’d easily recruit Wu Xing onto his research team. Zone likely would support this—provided the card printing efficiency was high. After all, Zone had invested so much effort and resources precisely to witness Wu Xing’s evolution.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Xing’s decks had countless enhancement possibilities. Later expansions of his Trash, Stardust, Savior, and other themed decks were on a completely different power level from their current versions. Boosting any single one would launch Fuxie into the stratosphere.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And if Fuxie joined, the project would almost certainly gain Zone’s full backing, granting research funding and resources far beyond normal limits. You Xuan had no doubt that with Zone’s technology, even a god-tier monster like “Cosmic Blazing Dragon” could be printed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Besides Wu Xing, You Xuan also considered Sherry. After her parents’ deaths, she pursued revenge by mastering every field—astronomy, geography, humanities, mathematics, martial arts, dueling—almost everything, like Batman traveling the world to learn all knowledge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sherry likely had strong research potential. Her deck still had heavyweight cards like “Baroness of Flowers” unplayed. From the original work, Zone seemed to favor her, even attempting to recruit her—she might also receive some support.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sherry was already half-swayed. You Xuan believed she could still be recruited.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for others, like Jack Atlas, though his deck had strong development potential and powerful unplayed monsters, he was a pure brute like Jaden, utterly unsuited for research, so You Xuan excluded him from his priority list.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That’s about it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sitting on the Taiyi Throne, You Xuan closed the floating screen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For the next couple of days, there should be nothing urgent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Come to think of it, I should probably go back and check in.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of Chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",1049,"2026-06-19T08:58:37.480Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","85c963543e63dbc1458626b5f099f9463a44cb20b472a5b722836dd2fe96bbb8","who-let-him-play-yu-gi-oh-chapter-952","who-let-him-play-yu-gi-oh-chapter-950",1000,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fwho-let-him-play-yu-gi-oh-cover.jpg"]
