âIâll go first, draw!â Yuei Vu took the initiative here, âSummon âElemental HERO Claymanâ in defense position!â
The monster card was projected horizontally on the ground, and the clay hero with a solid body emerges from the card, arms crossed in a defensive posture.
[Elemental HERO Clayman, DEF 2000]
âSet a card, I end my turn.â
Yuei Vu finished the operation and looked at the heavily armored Shogun in front of him.
Since the opponent was the Great Shogun Shien, the deck he used must beâŚ
âMy turn, draw!â
The Shogun drew a cardââYuei Vu was still wondering how the Duel Disk was put on his thick armor.
He glanced at the card he had drawn, and inserted it into the Duel Disk without thinking: âContinuous Spell Card â Six Samurai United!â
Sure enough, it was completely unsurprising that it was a deck from the Six Samurai series.
Most of the prototypes of the monsters in the Six Samurai series come from the characters of the Sengoku period, and some monsters were a combination of the characteristics of many famous warriors in history. The Spell and Trap cards of this series were all related to historical allusions, the art of war, or legendary artifacts. It used to be a very distinctive and popular deck.
Shienâs operation continued, and he revealed a monster card in his hand: âThen I summon âThe Six Samurai â Nisashiâ in attack position!â
The Six Samurai â Nisashi was a samurai wearing green armor and holding two swords. Its prototype was said to be the famous Miyamoto Musashi, known as the âSword Masterâ.
[The Six Samurai â Nisashi, attack power 1400]
âAt this moment, Six Samurai Unitedâs effect is activated!â Shien said, âEvery time a Six Samurai monster is summoned, I can place a Bushido Counter on this card!
Then I special summon from my hand⌠Grandmaster of the Six Samurai! â
The white-haired old man in black appeared on the field. He was one-eyed, with a big beard and a black sword in both hands, revealing an inviolable murderous look in his only one eye.
[Grandmaster of the Six Samurai, ATK 2100]
Dark Magician Girl covered her mouth: âA Level 5 monster that can be summoned directlyâŚâ
âGrandmaster of the Six Samurai can be special summoned from the hand when there is a Six Samurai monster on my field.â Shien said lightly, âThen at this moment, the Bushido Counters on the âSix Samurai Unitedâ increased to two.
Then the follow-up effect of âSix Samurai Unitedâ was activated. Send this card to the graveyard, and I draw cards with the same number as the counters from the deck. â
Shien sent the Spell Card to the GY: âBecause there are two counters on it, I draw two cards from the deck.â
Adding two cards to the hand, followed by a wave of the Great Shogunâs arm, the heavy armor made a rustling sound of metal friction, and that posture looked like drawing a sword out of its sheath on the battlefield and commanding thousands of troops to launch fierce battles.
âBattle! Grandmaster of the Six Samurai, attack Clayman!â
The one-eyed old man flew out, leaving an arc of light with the pitch-black knife, and slashed the clay heroâs body with great determination. The latter snorted softly and exploded with a bang.
âNext is The Six Samurai â Nisashi.â Shien continued to order, âAttack directly!â
The samurai of the two-sword style flashed forward with agile steps, the two swords interlaced, leaving two green sword lights in the air, and went straight toward Yuei Vuâs face.
Of course, Yuei Vu also has countermeasures: âTrap Card â Counter Gate! When an opponentâs monster declares a direct attack: Negate the attack, and then I can draw a card from the deck!â
A rectangular blue barrier appeared in front of Yuei Vu, blocking the warriorâs sword light. Yuei Vu took advantage of the situation to draw a card from the deck and take a look at it. It was a âPot of Greedâ.
âHmph, so you can block an attack of this level? But the determination of a warrior should be more than this.â Shien waved his arm, and the armor rustled again, âThe effect of The Six Samurai â Nisashi!
While I control a face-up âSix Samuraiâ monster with a different name, this card can attack twice during each Battle Phase! â
Dark Magician Girl: âA samurai who can attack continuously!â
âNisashi, let them see your two-sword style!â Shien raised his voice, âAttack directly!â
The green warriors of the Six Samurai flew forward again. This time, there was no barrier to block the attack anymore, and the sword light staggered and fell from Yuei Vuâs body. At the same time, it took away a lot of life.
ăYuei Vu, LP 4000 âLP 2600ă
Yuei Vu gritted his teeth.
It was not an illusion. The moment the blade cut across his body, he really felt the sensation of the cold blade cutting through flesh. The pain spread violently with the passing of the life value, just like a Shadow Game.
âThe battle in this world is not a joke. If you hold a half-hearted mentality, you may die.â
Shienâs tone was calm as if he was describing a trivial matter that couldnât be more ordinary.
âSet a card, I end my turn.â
It seemed that because this was the spirit world, the damage of the duel also had a real impact.
But Yuei Vu didnât shrink back because of this. After all, he has played life-betting cards more than once or twice.
âMy turn, draw!â Of course, Yuei Vu played the card drawn by the trap effect without hesitation, âSpell Card â Pot of Greed! Draw two more cards from the deck.â
Glancing at the cards in his hand, Yuei Vu quickly decided on his attack strategy.
âSummon âElemental HERO Blazemanâ!â
The hero in the fire-colored tights came to the field with a shout. With his arms open, the golden eyepiece reflected the burning flames.
[Elemental HERO Blazeman, ATK 1200]
âThe effect of Blazeman â If this card is Normal or Special Summoned: I can add 1 âPolymerizationâ from my Deck to my hand.â Yuei Vu took out the Spell Card from the deck, and then immediately inserted it into the Duel Disk, âActivate Spell Card â Polymerization!
I fuse âElemental HERO Blazemanâ with âElemental HERO Liquid Soldierâ on my hand!
The fusion condition is 1 âElemental HEROâ monster + 1 FIRE monster!
Fusion Summon! Elemental HERO Nova Master! â
The two heroes turned into flames and streams of water, met in mid-air, and finally turned into pillars of fire that soared to the sky and crashed to the ground. The hero in the red gold armor fell on the field with flames all over his body, and the cloak fluttered behind him in the hot and twisted air.
[Elemental HERO Nova Master, ATK 2600]
âNext is the effect of Elemental HERO Liquid Soldier!â Yuei Vu raised his hand, âIf this card is used as Fusion Material for a âHEROâ monster, and sent to the GY or banished: I can draw 2 cards, then discard 1 card.â
Shien looked at the handsome hero with a fluttering cloak on Yuei Vuâs field with some fascination and chuckled lightly.
âA heroâŚâ he muttered to himself, âbut the so-called hero does not only mean glory and wealth. How many people can understand the weight that the word hero needs to bear?â
âFrom my hand, activate the effect of âMagiciansâ Soulsâ!â Yuei Vu flipped out a card in his hand, âcan send 1 Level 6 or higher Spellcaster monster from your Deck to the GY, then Send this card to the GY to Special Summon 1 âDark Magicianâ or 1 âDark Magician Girlâ from my GY.
I send âDark Magicianâ from the deck to the GY, discard âMagiciansâ Soulsâ, and the âDark Magicianâ in the GY is resurrected! â
The black vortex opened up, the green staff flew out, and the slender red-robed mage flew out amidst the magic power lingering like water. The staff twirled in mid-air and flew back to his hand lightly.
[Dark Magician, ATK 2500]
âDark Magician, the highest-level magicianâŚin an instant, two powerful monsters are summoned, forming a suppression.â The Shogun narrowed his red eyes, and curled his mouth, âHmph, itâs interesting.â
