Tenjo Hikari returned to the base.
He excitedly rushed into the base, pulled out all the instruments he could find, and then focused on modifying the "Emerald Book."
Previously, Tenjo Hikari thought he could just muddle through in this dimension, find the Earthbound Servant to help Mud Dragon King settle things, and then join the excitement of the recent Dragon Sign and Dark Signer events with Netherworld Dragon, playing the role of a tourist watching duels in this dimension, collecting some cards related to Synchro and Polymerization.
But now, upon discovering not only has the Fusion Army arrived in this dimension, but even "Akaba Leo" has come…
Well, things are completely different now.
He previously traveled while collecting cards because it was his "summer vacation." Not only was this a process of collecting Polymerization, but also a time for summer break rest, so there was no urgent need to rush experiments or manufacturing.
Akaba Leo being in this dimension is a perfect opportunity!
Whether it's due to his excitement or because of the addition of the Earthbound Immortal, Tenjo Hikari's research went very smoothly.
Excellent—
If he can enter the Great Cosmic Workshop in this dimension, his chances of winning would be even higher!
Elsewhere, after socializing with the nobles for a bit, Akaba Leo heard Lilos's report.
Upon learning of Tenjo Hikari obtaining an Earthbound Immortal, Akaba Leo showed no emotion, he merely chastised Lilos briefly in front of the nobles and then lightly dismissed the matter, letting Lilos prepare for the next ambush on Tenjo Hikari.
For those of the General rank, even Akaba Leo wouldn't casually reprimand them, as their individual capabilities are indeed outstanding, such high-level subordinates wouldn't really be disciplined just to appease the nobles.
Moreover, what he truly cares about isn't these things.
He looked at the giant machinery his soldiers moved to this dimension, moved to the noble area, and gently took out his deck.
With the powers of the Phantasm, Numbers, and Earthbound Immortal obtained, Akaba Leo could finally attempt.
Years ago, he and his companions conducted experiments with God's Card.
Utilizing Physical Image Technology, they attempted to compress "infinite" mass into a single card to create a "God's Card" that would create a world where everyone could live freely, a world abundant in resources without any shortages.
At that moment.
At the instant the card "manifested," Akaba Leo understood.
They hadn't "created" that card, rather, it finally had a suitable "vessel" to meet its needs!
At that time, he was presented with a choice.
An opportunity to swing, an opportunity to make a choice.
To choose devotion, share this power, and create a world where everyone could live happily.
To choose selfishness, monopolize this power, and create a world where he alone enjoyed all things.
In that pendulum of the soul, Akaba Leo chose the latter.
Unfortunately…
Due to some unforeseen circumstances, his initial attempt failed.
The vessel intended to bear the power, Zarc and Ray, split, and ultimately he got nothing.
However!
Though the attempt failed, he still has a chance.
As long as he finds his daughter, the world is within reach.
Not only that, although he did not obtain the full power of [GOD], the process of GOD's swing gave him a thread of possibility.
Previously, through experiments and cultivation, he obtained some data from Serena, and recently, Yuri captured Ruri in the Xyz Dimension, through experiments, he successfully found that data on Ruri.
With the powers of Phantasm, Numbers, and Earthbound Immortal, he can open up that possibility!
Tap—
Tap—
Like a pendulum swinging, Akaba Leo's eyes flashed the possibility of the soul.
A card appeared in his gaze.
Ha…
A Fusion Monster.
A Fusion Monster of unparalleled strength that ordinary people could never witness!
However, unlike regular Fusion Monsters…
This card's upper portion is the purple of Fusion Monsters, but its lower portion is actually the green of a "Spell Card!"
Moreover, the appearance of this card is completely different from other Monsters, between the effect and the Card Image, there is actually an additional line!
Spirit Tech Force - Pendulum Commander!
With this card, whether it's Phantasm or Numbers, they would appear powerless and weak!
But right when he was feeling triumphant, the machine used to construct and maintain this card's existence flickered with a slight resonance.
Hmm?
Akaba Leo frowned tightly.
It seems that the data of only two persons is still insufficient—
This world should have it, right?
My [daughter]!
While thinking about his [daughter], in [F Dimension], his beloved daughter Serena, guided by the school and Judai, arrived at the grounds of Red Academy.
During this time, Mitsuzawa Daichi left the school as a student envoy to the X Dimension, and Manjome was busy with company affairs every day, making the entire Fusion Department appear deserted.
Now, the timing was just right, as a representative of first-year students, Serena naturally had the opportunity to participate in this month's Dimension Travel.
As Judai walked, he asked Serena if she'd like him to accompany her.
Serena knew Senior Judai was asking this question just because he had nothing to do, he himself is by no means a student seeking "opportunity."
However… today, she wanted to try something different, so… she didn't want Judai to accompany her.
Thus, before reaching the scene, she promptly asked Senior Judai to go attend to other matters, she already had enough experience and didn't need Judai's care.
Judai, although intending to protect Serena, respected her insistence and, being a male, it wouldn't be convenient to tag along.
"Eh… it's a pity Asuka isn't here."
The Tenjouin Siblings were led by Fubuki to travel to Domino City — honestly, he also wanted to go to Domino City to visit Mr. Muto, but unfortunately didn't get to join the excitement.
As the machine started, Serena suddenly raised her left hand, and the light of the Dimension Gate began rotating, then after a moment, unexpectedly turned green.
If Judai were here, upon seeing this color change, he'd likely instantly pull Serena away.
After all, Yuki Judai had experienced having his destination forcibly altered by Daitokuji's alchemy and arriving at other dimensions. Yet, when someone straightforward attempts to play a trick for the first time, it typically appears unsuspecting.
Although Serena hadn't mastered the construction of Dimension Gates, she had specifically studied how to alter destinations.
Before long, she landed in a barren research institute and almost instantly, she sidestepped into the pitch-black corner.
She smelled the familiar scent in the air…
As expected!
The anxiety in her heart completely vanished.
The dimension containing Ruri was indeed…
Fusion Army headquarters!
