"Azure-Eyes Silver Dragon was summoned!!!"
The Level 9 Synchro, the silver dragon with an iron wall-like body fell with a mighty force, shaking the earth.
[Azure-Eyes Silver Dragon, DEF 3000]
"Here we go again, a new Blue Eyes Synchro?" Jack said, "Seto Kaiba's traditional Blue-Eyes deck can actually use the power of Synchro so skillfully."
"…"
"And at this moment, my set card in the backfield is also activated!" Kaiba shouted, "Trap Card ‘Taunt'! This card can only be activated during the opponent's Main Phase 1!
Select 1 monster on my side of the field. While the selected card remains on the field, if the opponent attacks this turn, they must select the selected monster as the attack target!"
Kaiba pointed to the dragon that had just appeared.
"I choose ‘Azure-Eyes Silver Dragon'! This turn, you can only attack ‘Azure-Eyes Silver Dragon'!"
Azure-Eyes Silver Dragon roared, and its huge and solid body was placed in front of Yuei Vu's monster like a shield, blocking the attack.Yuei Vu thought about it and continued to operate.
"The effect of Vajrayana! Once per turn, I can send 1 Equip Card equipped to this card to the GY; double this card's ATK until the end of this turn!
I send ‘Dragunity Aklys' to my GY!"
[Dragunity Knight – Vajrayana, ATK 1900 → ATK 3800]
"At this moment, the effect of ‘Dragunity Aklys' that was sent to the graveyard is activated!" Yuei Vu said, "When this card is sent to the Graveyard while equipped to a monster, select 1 card on the field, and destroy it."
Vajrayana raised his hand, and exerted force on his arm, and the "Dragunity Aklys" transformed into a javelin in his hand and stabbed out like lightning! Blue-Eyes Twin Burst Dragon only had resistance to battle destruction, but it was useless under the explosion effect of the javelin.
"Mu Da!" Kaiba shouted, "The moment Azure-Eyes Silver Dragon is Special Summoned, its effect has been activated! Until the end of the next turn, neither player can target Dragon monsters I currently control with card effects, also they cannot be destroyed by card effects!
Therefore, Blue-Eyes Twin Burst Dragon cannot be selected as the target of card effects, nor will it be destroyed by card effects."
Kaiba's mouth corners raised, revealing a smug smile.
"Azure-Eyes Silver Dragon is the most powerful shield of my Blue-Eyes deck! With this layer of protection and resistance, all the dragons on my field are immune to the effect!"
This was the reason why President Kaiba had activated the trap card "Taunt" in advance.
Taunt had a target effect, and he had to select a monster on his field as the target to activate it. But if he waited until the effect of Azure-Eyes Silver Dragon took effect, then even Kaiba himself would not be able to select his own monster as the target of the effect, therefore "Taunt" could not be activated.
Yuei Vu's "Dragunity Aklys" had a mandatory effect. The moment it was sent to the graveyard as equipment, the effect had been forced to trigger and could not be canceled. If he could not select any of Kaiba's cards as targets, even if it was to blow up his own card, this effect must be forced to activate.
However, Yuei Vu was not without optional targets.
In the previous turn, the Continuous Trap "Fiendish Chain" that Kaiba used to bind "Ascalon" had an effect text description of "When the targeted monster is destroyed, destroy this card."
However, Ascalon was not destroyed in the end, but was sent to another dimension by the effect of Blue-Eyes Twin Burst Dragon. Therefore, Fiendish Chain still remained on the field until now, but it had become a meaningless decoration.
"Then I will destroy the Continuous Trap ‘Fiendish Chain' on your field!" Yuei Vu pointed to Kaiba's backfield.
The Javelin Dragon, which lost its target, flew straight to the trap in Kaiba's backfield, and Fiendish Chain was blown into golden powder.
At this time, Vajrayana, who had activated the effect of doubling the attack power, had reached 3800 ATK, which was 800 points higher than the Blue-Eyes Twin Burst Dragon in the Attack Position on the field of Kaiba.
And Kaiba's LP was only 700.
Although the Blue-Eyes Twin Burst Dragon could not be destroyed by battle, the damage calculation was still applicable. As long as Vajrayana's attack passed, Kaiba would be defeated instantly.
Therefore, the trap "Taunt" launched by the president was actually very critical. Under the constraint of this trap effect, Yuei Vu had to give priority to attacking the Azure-Eyes Silver Dragon in the Defense Position. If he had made a mistake, the president would have been killed on the spot.
"Then use the ‘Dragunity Knight – Vajrayana' to attack the ‘Azure-Eyes Silver Dragon'!"
The dragon knight launched a charge! The red dragon flapped its wings, like a bolt of lightning that shot through the sky, and the long spear in the knight's hand, with a cyclone that broke through the air, slammed hard on the silver dragon's solid body!
"It's still useless!" Kaiba said, "At this moment, another effect of the Spell Card ‘Return of the Dragon Lords' in the graveyard is activated! If a Dragon monster I control would be destroyed by battle or card effect, I can banish this card from my GY instead!
So I remove ‘Return of the Dragon Lords' from the game to replace the destruction of ‘Azure-Eyes Silver Dragon'!"
The shadow of the Spell Card emerged and was sucked into the vortex of the dimension from the graveyard. A layer of transparent protective layer was attached to the surface of the Azure-Eyes Silver Dragon, withstanding the attack of the dragon knight.
"That Kaiba Seto's defense is also impeccable. This is bad for Senior Yuei Vu." Yusei said in a deep voice, "The attack power of Vajrayana doubles for only one turn, which is a chance to kill with one hit.
If this attack fails, his attack power will drop back to 1900 in the next turn. Senior Yuei Vu's life value is only 1000. If Vajrayana is attacked in the next turn…"
Yuei Vu may have also realized this problem, but he was not at all powerless. After the Battle Phase ended, he waved his hand directly.
"Set two cards, I end my turn."
Double cover in the backfield, just ask if you dare to fight or not.
Kaiba narrowed his eyes.
Ha, bait me?
Do you think I'm afraid of you, Yuei↑ Vu↓?!
"My turn, draw!"
Kaiba raised his hand.
"At this moment, the other effect of ‘Azure-Eyes Silver Dragon' is activated! Once per turn, during my Standby Phase: I can target 1 Normal Monster in your GY; Special Summon it!"
Kaiba drew a card that was retired from the graveyard.
"Although ‘Dragon Spirit of White' is an effect monster, it is treated as a Normal Monster while in the hand or GY." He said, "So, I special summoned the ‘Dragon Spirit of White'!"
"Then you can banish a Spell or Trap card on the field, right?" Yuei Vu said.
"That's right." Kaiba sneered, "Your Vajrayana has only 1900 attack power, and if he is attacked, the game will end immediately.
In other words, your means of defense is hidden in the set cards in the backfield, right?"
With two set cards, the chance of the key card being blown away was still quite high.
So Yuei Vu wasn't reluctant to play a card: "Then open the set card: Counter Trap – Divine Wrath!
When a monster effect is activated: Discard 1 card; negate the activation and destroy that monster.
I negate the activation of the effect of ‘Azure-Eyes Silver Dragon' and destroy it!"
