# Chapter 143: Can I Become That Strong Too?
The brilliance of salvation descended, divine starlight and great dragons filling the night sky.
Shooting Savior Star Dragon ATK: 4000
"Next, I activate the Spell Card, Heavy Storm! All Spell and Trap Cards on the field are destroyed!"
A fierce wind swept across Yūga Hōzumi's entire field, destroying the two strange machines beside him. At that moment, two dimensional gates opened next to Yūga Hōzumi's D-Wheel.
"Return! Cosmic Blazar Dragon! Stardust Sifr Divine Dragon!"
From the opened dimensional gates, two majestic dragons roared and flew out. The four dragons in the sky, each with a different form, shone brilliantly in unison.
Cosmic Blazar Dragon ATK: 4000
Stardust Sifr Divine Dragon ATK: 4000
Shooting Quasar Dragon ATK: 4000
Shooting Savior Star Dragon ATK: 4000
"And now for the last monster!" Yūga Hōzumi raised his right hand. "I activate the effect of Garden Rose Maiden in my Graveyard! By banishing this card from the Graveyard, I can target one Dragon Synchro Monster in my Graveyard and Special Summon it."
"Return! Stardust Dragon!"
A pure white flower bud bloomed in the starry sky where Yūga Hōzumi's finger pointed. Stardust Dragon spread its wings and emerged from the bud, letting out a joyful hum.
Stardust Dragon ATK: 2500
The returning Stardust Dragon joined the ranks of the other behemoths in the sky. The five dragons danced through the air, the stardust sprinkled from their wings illuminating the entire night sky.
Such a sight made Bruno stare blankly upward. "So beautiful," he exclaimed in awe.
"I'll end my turn with that." Yūga Hōzumi shouted towards Bruno, "Hey, your turn!"
"Ah, is it my turn?" Bruno finally snapped out of it and drew a card. "My turn! I draw!"
With Yūga Hōzumi having successfully established this board, anyone going second without Super Polymerization and a Five-Headed Dragon in their Extra Deck had essentially been stripped of their right to play Yu-Gi-Oh. But Bruno didn't know that, so he first played a card to test the waters.
"I activate the Spell Card, Raigeki! It destroys all monsters on my opponent's field."
As Bruno activated his first card, violent thunder swept towards the five dragons on Yūga Hōzumi's field.
However, after Stardust Sifr Divine Dragon roared, a golden brilliance fell upon its companions. The five dragons, bathed in the violent thunder, remained unharmed.
"What?" Bruno was stunned. He had thought this card would at least be able to bait out Stardust Dragon's effect.
"While Stardust Sifr Divine Dragon is on the field, each card you control cannot be destroyed by battle or card effects once per turn," Yūga Hōzumi explained to Bruno with a smile.
"I see," Bruno nodded. "In that case, since you control a monster and I control none, I can Special Summon this card!"
"Appear! T.G. Striker!"
"Next, since a Level 4 or lower monster was Special Summoned, I activate the effect of T.G. Werewolf in my hand! This lets me Special Summon it!"
"I tune the Level 3 T.G. Werewolf with the Level 2 T.G. Striker!" Bruno continued his play.
"Limiter Removal, Level 5! Booster Activation, OK! Tilt Angle, OK! Ground Support, all systems clear! GO! Synchro Summon! COME ON! T.G. Star Guardian!"
From a star path filled with a technological aura, a monster in the form of a D-Wheel accelerated out, transformed in mid-air, and descended toward the ground.
But at that very moment, Cosmic Blazar Dragon let out a roar from the sky and transformed into a golden meteor, plummeting toward the new monster.
"I activate Cosmic Blazar Dragon's effect! When my opponent Summons a monster, I can banish this card until the End Phase to negate the Summon and destroy that monster," Yūga Hōzumi said with a smile.
"Such a powerful disruption effect?" Bruno gritted his teeth. "Then again, such stringent summoning conditions deserve an effect this powerful."
"Then, I Summon T.G. Catapult Dragon in Attack Position!"
"I activate T.G. Catapult Dragon's effect! Once per turn, I can Special Summon one Level 3 or lower 'T.G.' Tuner from my hand."
"At this moment, I activate the effect of Stardust Sifr Divine Dragon! Once per turn, when my opponent activates a monster effect, I can negate it and destroy one card on the field."
As Yūga Hōzumi's voice fell, Stardust Sifr Divine Dragon spread its wings. Mysterious magic circles appeared around it, and a golden holy spear descended from the sky, shattering the monster beside Bruno.
"This dragon has a negation effect too?" Bruno thought to himself.
"I activate the Spell Card, One for One! I send one monster from my hand to the Graveyard to Special Summon one Level 1 monster from my hand or Deck."
Bruno made his last attempt, but Yūga Hōzumi had no intention of giving him any chance.
"At this moment, I activate Shooting Quasar Dragon's effect! Once per turn, when a Spell, Trap, or Monster Effect is activated, I can negate that activation and destroy it."
This time it was Shooting Quasar Dragon. After a roar, the card Bruno was hoping would turn the tide became a fleeting illusion, slowly dissipating in the air.
"This kind of suppression..." Bruno swallowed. "Is this Delta Accel Synchro, the power that surpasses Accel Synchro?"
"I end my turn," Bruno, with no cards left in his hand, had no choice but to say.
"At this moment, due to its own effect, the banished Cosmic Blazar Dragon returns to the field!"
The five great dragons gathered again, taking turns dancing in the night sky.
"My turn! I draw!" After Yūga Hōzumi drew his card, he pulled off a maneuver he had recently learned. His D-Wheel drifted sideways as he pointed back at Bruno.
"Battle! Shooting Savior Star Dragon, direct attack! Creation of Heaven and Earth—Roar of Salvation!!" Following a philosophy of giving everyone a turn, Yūga Hōzumi chose Shooting Savior Star Dragon, which hadn't been able to use its effect last turn, to deliver the final blow.
Shooting Savior Star Dragon spread its wings, leaping high into the sky and transforming into a radiant arrow of light. It shot directly at Bruno, leaving a dazzling trail in its wake.

Inside Bruno's room.
Bruno woke with a start. But unlike his previous fear and frustration, this time, his eyes were filled only with excitement. "Is this the true power of Accel Synchro? Can I become that strong too?"
Thinking of the five dragons dancing in his dream, Bruno couldn't help but think, "With that kind of oppressive power, even Jack Atlas would be completely shut down."
As he thought, Bruno, who usually went back to sleep for a bit after training, found all his sleepiness gone. He quickly threw on his clothes and ran towards his D-Wheel outside, eager to try it for himself.
A few minutes later, Yūga Hōzumi, in his room, heard the D-Wheel's engine roar to life outside. He shrugged and smiled knowingly.
But at that very moment, the system's electronic voice sounded unexpectedly.
