The oppressive aura gradually faded as the two Blue-Eyes White Dragons ceased their thunderous roars.
The monsters on Jaden Yuki and Yubel's side of the field seemed to lose their luster, turning a dull, lifeless grey. Even their strength was being suppressed by that terrifying Dragon Might.
[Vision HERO Trinity]
[Attack Power: 5000 → 2500]
[Elemental HERO Sunrise]
[Attack Power: 2900 → 2500]
[Masked HERO Dark Law]
[Attack Power: 2800 → 2400]
[Yubel]
[Attack Power: 400 → 0]
"This is bad! The Attack Power of all the monsters on The Supreme King's field has returned to their original values!"
"Because their effects were negated, Trinity can no longer use its effect to attack three times in a single turn..."
"Incredible... So this is the legendary Kaibaman?"
Ash Blossom and the others turned pale. The strength Kaibaman displayed far exceeded their wildest imaginations.
"Jaden, the situation looks rather grim," Yubel muttered, a drop of cold sweat trickling down her forehead. Because of the pressure from the Blue-Eyes White Dragons, her power was locked within her body, leaving her face somewhat sickly and pale.
"Is that so?"
Jaden's mouth curled into a smirk. "Don't forget, I still have one Polymerization in my hand."
That's right!
Seeing Jaden's continued composure, Ash Blossom suddenly remembered that Jaden had held two Polymerization cards earlier! Furthermore, there was still a Miracle Fusion in play.
Did that mean Trinity's only purpose was to draw the enemy's fire?
"Kaibaman, you don't just have Seto Kaiba's personality; your strength is also remarkably close to the man himself."
"But unfortunately," Jaden said with a smile, "you also completely inherited his tendency to underestimate the opponent."
"If you had waited until the Battle Phase to use that Trap Card, I might truly have had no chance to continue. However..."
You used it early, during the Main Phase!
This seemingly insignificant mistake would be the catalyst for the total destruction of your monsters.
"I activate the effect of Destiny HERO - Malicious from my Graveyard!"
"By banishing it from the Graveyard, I can Special Summon another copy of Malicious from my Deck to the field!"
Malicious appeared on Jaden's field with a fierce howl.
"What? He can still keep going?" Kaibaman's expression shifted slightly, his eyes gleaming with disbelief.
"I activate the Spell Card, Polymerization!"
"I fuse the Destiny HERO - Malicious on my field with Masked HERO Dark Law!"
"Come forth! Destiny HERO - Destroyer Phoenix Enforcer!"
Malicious and Dark Law leaped into the swirling vortex of the fusion. In that instant, the fires of a red lotus spread from the summoning circle. Accompanied by a burst of black flames, Destroyer Phoenix Enforcer emerged slowly from the vortex, wings spread and arms crossed defiantly.
[Destiny HERO - Destroyer Phoenix Enforcer]
[Level: 8]
[Warrior Type]
[Attack Power: 2500 / Defense Power: 2100]
"Destroyer Phoenix Enforcer..." The two Kaibamen took on a solemn air. The feeling this monster gave off...
"It's not over yet." Jaden revealed the second card in his hand. "The fusion continues! I activate Miracle Fusion!"
"Three fusions in a single turn?"
"Dammit, just how much can this brat fuse?" Even Kaibaman couldn't help but complain.
Sunrise, Trinity, Destroyer Phoenix Enforcer, and now yet another fusion. This kid was taking things a bit too far.
"I banish Elemental HERO Liquid Soldier and Vision HERO Vyon from my Graveyard! From the Extra Deck, I Fusion Summon Elemental HERO Absolute Zero!"
Boom!
A hero clad in snow-white armor appeared on Jaden's field. He flicked his cape and crossed his arms, staring coldly at every card on the opponent's side.
[Elemental HERO Absolute Zero]
[Level: 8]
[Warrior Type]
[Attack Power: 2500 / Defense Power: 2000]
"Two heroes..." A trace of gravity appeared on Kaibaman's face. "But in terms of Attack Power, the Blue-Eyes White Dragons on my field are still superior."
"He's right. Although Destroyer Phoenix Enforcer has an effect that reduces the opponent's Attack Power by 200 for every HERO in the Graveyard, The Supreme King only has one Malicious and one Dark Law in there. That only lowers the enemy's Blue-Eyes by 400 points."
"Without the support of Sunrise's effect, trying to overwhelm Blue-Eyes White Dragon with raw power is simply unrealistic," Ash Blossom noted, nodding in agreement.
Even if they used Destroyer Phoenix Enforcer's effect to destroy one Blue-Eyes, the remaining heroes didn't have enough Attack Power to defeat the other one.
Was this the limit?
"Is that so?" Jaden's smile widened. "Once per turn, Destiny HERO - Destroyer Phoenix Enforcer can choose one card on my field and one card on the field to destroy."
As expected, he's going to use Phoenix's effect to blow up a White Dragon?
Cold sweat beaded on Ash Blossom's brow. But it still wasn't enough; the opponent had two Blue-Eyes White Dragons.
Wait, hold on!
Suddenly, Ash Blossom realized something.
"I choose to destroy Elemental HERO Absolute Zero on my field and Yubel!" Jaden shouted, his fist clenched tight.
Kaibaman's face drained of color. "Destroying your own monsters?"
"Are you joking? Have you completely given up?"
"Of course not!" Ash Blossom suddenly cut in front of Jaden, shouting excitedly from among the spirits. "I get it! I know what The Supreme King is thinking!"
"When Absolute Zero leaves the field, he can destroy all monsters on your field!"
"And when Yubel is destroyed by an effect other than her own, she can evolve!"
Ash Blossom's eyes sparkled with excitement. She saw it. She saw The Supreme King's true intent! Did this mean she was beginning to understand him? Was she approaching his level of strength?
"Correct." Jaden glanced at Ash Blossom, a look of approval in his eyes. "Yubel, it's time to show your true power."
"Hehehe, I didn't expect you to choose to destroy me, Jaden... I suppose this counts as your 'love' for me."
A cold sneer played on Yubel's lips. Under Kaibaman's shocked gaze, both Yubel and Absolute Zero were engulfed by the crimson lotus flames of Destroyer Phoenix Enforcer.
"Aaaaaah!"
The searing heat instantly covered the bodies of Yubel and Absolute Zero.
"This pain... it's as if I can see it... I see the past that was almost forgotten."
"Jaden... Jaden!"
Boom!
Absolute Zero's figure vanished from the field instantly. In that breath, a bone-chilling frost permeated the air. The Blue-Eyes White Dragons on Kaibaman's field, along with Lord of D., were instantly frozen solid by this terrifying cold.
Meanwhile, within the red lotus flames, Yubel's body began to swell continuously. A massive demonic eye appeared in the center of the fire. Demonic dragon wings unfurled, scattering the flames that enveloped her.
A two-headed demonic dragon appeared on Jaden's field, and Yubel's torso slowly emerged from the center of the dragon's body.
[Yubel - Terror Incarnate]
[Level: 11]
[Fiend Type]
[Attack Power: 0 / Defense Power: 0]
"Is this a human fused with a demonic dragon?" Seeing the transformation, Kaibaman broke into a cold sweat. "Such an ancient forbidden art... just what kind of despair did this creature have to endure to fuse with a monster?"
"Hehehe, despair?"
Yubel hung her head, letting out bursts of cold laughter. "What does that count as despair?"
"True despair was the torment of those thousands of years separated from Jaden, turned into a card spirit and searching for him endlessly."
"However, that is all in the past now."
Yubel looked up at Jaden, who stood beside her. "The current me would give everything for Jaden... even if it means destroying myself, I won't hesitate!"
"So the source of this obsession is that boy?" Kaibaman seemed to confirm something. He frowned, watching the frozen dragons on his field shatter into ice shards and slowly dissipate.
"The two of you... truly are a terrifying pair."
"Battle," Jaden said simply, his voice cold.
He looked at the two Kaibamen and waved his hand. Destroyer Phoenix Enforcer, Trinity, and Sunrise immediately prepared for combat.
"Although Trinity normally cannot attack directly, because its effects were negated earlier, it can now attack the opponent directly."
"The Attack Power of all three monsters is 2500. That means, in one fell swoop, the opponent is going to take a massive 7500 points of damage."
Ash Blossom clenched her fists tight.
Too strong.
Whether it was methodically drawing the pieces of Exodia or overwhelmingly crushing the Blue-Eyes White Dragons in battle...
Jaden Yuki and Yubel were simply steamrolling their opponent from every conceivable angle!
