"Chain again! First I activate the Pendulum Effect of D/D/D Oblivion King Abyss Ragnarok in my Pendulum Zone, then I trigger the effect of D/D Scale Surveyor when it leaves the field!"
Genya's voice had already risen into a near-hysterical roar, feverish with excitement.
"First, I activate D/D Scale Surveyor's effect! If this card is sent to the Graveyard, or added face-up to the Extra Deck, I can target 1 'D/D' Pendulum Monster Card on my field and return it to my hand!"
"My target is D/D Orthros in the Pendulum Zone! Return it to my hand!"
He snatched D/D Orthros off his Duel Disk and added it back to his hand, then immediately shouted again.
"Next, I activate the Pendulum Effect of D/D/D Oblivion King Abyss Ragnarok! When I Special Summon a 'D/D' monster, I can target 1 'D/D' monster in my Graveyard, Special Summon it, then take 1000 damage!"
"I target D/D/D Marksman King Tell in my Graveyard and Special Summon it back to the field! At the same time, I take 1000 damage!"
[D/D/D Marksman King Tell]
[ATK: 2300]
[Genya, LP 7000 -> 6000]
"This is the moment!"
Genya suddenly raised the last card in his hand high overhead, the madness in his voice practically bursting out of his throat.
"I activate D/D Orthros's effect! When I take battle or effect damage, I can Special Summon this card from my hand!"
"I just took 1000 effect damage, so the condition is perfectly met! Special Summon, D/D Orthros!"
[D/D Orthros]
[Level 4 / Fiend / Tuner / Effect]
[ATK: 600]
The instant the monster's form solidified on the field, Genya's next shout came crashing down without pause, his combo accelerating to an absurd speed.
"I immediately activate the effect of D/D/D Sky King Zeus Ragnarok! I target 1 'D/D' or 'Dark Contract' card I control, destroy it, and this turn I gain 1 additional Pendulum Summon on top of my normal one!"
"My target is the D/D/D Marksman King Tell I just summoned! Destroy it!"
Before his words had even finished, the Marksman King who had only just appeared dissolved into a shower of light and vanished from the Duel Arena without leaving even a trace behind.
Genya looked up at Yusaku, a savage grin curling at the corner of his mouth.
"See that? Thanks to Zeus's effect, I can Pendulum Summon twice this turn! This Duel was already decided!"
As he spoke, he flashed a card from his Graveyard and barked sharply, "Now I activate the effect of D/D/D Marksman King Tell when it leaves the field! If this card is sent to the Graveyard, I can send 1 'D/D' card or 1 'Dark Contract' card from my Deck to the Graveyard. And this effect isn't once per turn, so of course I can use it again!"
"Then I chain the effect of the card face-up in my Extra Deck, D/D/D Zero Doom Queen Machinex!"
"First, I resolve D/D/D Zero Doom Queen Machinex's effect!" Genya's eyes burned as he stared at the field. "While this card is face-up in the Extra Deck, if a 'D/D/D' card or 'Dark Contract' card other than itself is destroyed, I can Special Summon it. After that, I can destroy 1 card on the field!"
"Just now, I destroyed D/D/D Marksman King Tell, so the condition is met! Special Summon, D/D/D Zero Doom Queen Machinex!"
[D/D/D Zero Doom Queen Machinex]
[ATK: 3000]
The crimson-armored monster had only just landed on the field when Genya continued at once.
"I activate Zero Doom Queen's follow-up effect! Destroy 1 card on the field. I choose to destroy itself!"
Without warning, the monster with a massive 3000 ATK exploded into light and vanished. Flashes of brilliance rose and fell across the field so rapidly that it was almost impossible to follow.
"Next, I resolve D/D/D Marksman King Tell's effect!" Genya pulled a card from his Deck and sent it to the Graveyard. "I send D/D Gryphon from my Deck to the Graveyard!"
The moment the card hit the Graveyard, he opened his mouth again, his tone brimming with the satisfaction of total control.
"Zero Doom Queen was destroyed by an effect, so that triggers its other effect! If this card in the Monster Zone is destroyed, I can place it in my Pendulum Zone!"
"So now, with a Pendulum Scale of 0, D/D/D Zero Doom Queen Machinex! Set the scale again!"
A dazzling orange-yellow pillar of light rose behind Genya once more. Within it, the phantom image of the crimson-armored fiend glared out in fury, the pressure it radiated even greater than before.
As soon as the scale was set, Genya bent down, pulled a card from his Graveyard, and waved it toward Yusaku.
"I'm not done yet! I activate the effect of D/D Necro Slime in my Graveyard! While this card is in the Graveyard, I can banish monsters from my Graveyard, including this card, as Fusion Material, and Fusion Summon 1 'D/D/D' Fusion Monster!"
"The monster I'm Fusion Summoning requires only 2 'D/D' monsters!"
"With Necro Slime's effect, I banish itself and D/D/D Marksman King Tell from my Graveyard as Fusion Material!"
"Fusion Summon! Level 6 - D/D/D Alfred the Divine Sage King!"
The two banished monsters shot skyward as streams of light and poured into the Fusion vortex overhead. In the next instant, a warrior clad in heavy armor, a massive sword in his right hand and a solid shield in his left, slowly descended from the swirl of light, radiating imposing battle intent.
[D/D/D Alfred the Divine Sage King]
[Level 6 / Fiend / Fusion / Effect]
[ATK: 1500]
"I activate D/D/D Alfred the Divine Sage King's effect!" Genya shouted without losing any momentum. "During my Main Phase, I can return monsters from my hand, field, or banishment to the Deck as Fusion Material and Fusion Summon 1 'D/D/D' Fusion Monster!"
"I return the banished D/D Necro Slime and D/D/D Marksman King Tell to the Deck as Fusion Material!"
"Fusion Summon! Level 6 - D/D/D Flame King Genghis!"
[D/D/D Flame King Genghis]
[Level 6 / Fiend / Fusion / Effect]
[ATK: 2000]
The moment Flame King Genghis took the field, Genya thrust up a hand and roared, "I tune my Level 6 D/D/D Alfred the Divine Sage King with my Level 4 Tuner, D/D Orthros!"
"O mighty power that shakes my soul, dwell within my body and become a brilliant new light that shatters all darkness!"
"Synchro Summon! Level 10 - D/D/D Super Doom King Bright Armageddon!"
The two monsters' lights intertwined as they shot into the sky, becoming a blinding Synchro beam. As that beam slanted down, a pure white fiend wrapped in crackling arcs of lightning slowly emerged from within it. The oppressive aura of destruction it gave off made the entire Duel Arena feel like it had frozen solid.
[D/D/D Super Doom King Bright Armageddon]
[Level 10 / Fiend / Synchro / Pendulum / Effect]
[ATK: 3500]
"My first Pendulum Summon begins now!" Genya looked at Yusaku, his tone overflowing with arrogance. "My current scales are 0 and 5, more than enough to Pendulum Summon Level 1 through 4 monsters!"
As he spoke, he pulled two face-up cards from the top of his Extra Deck and slammed them onto his Duel Disk for the entire stadium to see.
"Pendulum Summon! Level 4 D/D Orthros, and Level 2 D/D Scale Surveyor!"
[D/D Scale Surveyor]
[ATK: 0]
[D/D Orthros]
[ATK: 600]
The instant the two monsters appeared together, Genya's shout rang out again.
"I immediately tune the D/D Scale Surveyor I just summoned with my Level 4 Tuner, D/D Orthros!"
"Synchro Summon! Level 6 - D/D/D First King Clovis!"
[D/D/D First King Clovis]
[Level 6 / Fiend / Synchro / Effect]
[ATK: 2100]
"I activate D/D/D First King Clovis's effect!" Genya crouched slightly and revealed a card from his Graveyard. "When this card is Synchro Summoned, I can target 1 banished 'D/D' monster and Special Summon it. And if I have a 'Dark Contract' card on the field, I can choose from the Graveyard instead!"
He lifted his eyes toward Yusaku, the smile on his face growing even wilder.
"And right now, I have Dark Contract with the Gate on my field, so I choose D/D Gryphon in my Graveyard and Special Summon it directly!"
[D/D Gryphon]
[Level 4 / Fiend / Effect]
[ATK: 1200]
"Chain again! First I trigger D/D Gryphon's effect, then I activate D/D/D Flame King Genghis's effect!"
"First, D/D/D Flame King Genghis's effect!" Genya's voice was almost hoarse from shouting. "While this card is in the Monster Zone, if a 'D/D' monster is Special Summoned to my field, I can target 1 'D/D' monster in my Graveyard and Special Summon it!"
"I just Special Summoned D/D Gryphon, so the condition is met! Special Summon D/D Savant Copernicus from my Graveyard!"
[D/D Savant Copernicus]
[ATK: 0]
"Next, D/D Gryphon's effect!" Genya snapped out immediately. "If this card is Special Summoned from the Graveyard, I can add 1 'D/D' card from my Deck to my hand, except another copy of itself! I choose the Trap Card D/D/D Headhunt!"
After adding the Trap to his hand, Genya flung his arm out and shouted, "I overlay my Level 6 D/D/D First King Clovis and D/D/D Flame King Genghis!"
"To rule over everything in this world, descend now upon the very summit of creation!"
"Xyz Summon! Rank 6 - D/D/D Wave High King Caesar!"
A vortex of black light spun high above, and from within it descended a fiend in savage armor wielding a massive spiked club. Every step it took sent a tremor through the Duel Arena.
[D/D/D Wave High King Caesar]
[Rank 6 / Fiend / Xyz / Effect]
[ATK: 2800]
"I'm still not done! This is only the beginning!"
Genya's roar shook the entire stadium as he pointed at the other two monsters on his field.
"I overlay my Level 4 D/D Savant Copernicus with D/D Gryphon!"
"Xyz Summon! Rank 4 - D/D/D Wave King Caesar!"
[D/D/D Wave King Caesar]
[Rank 4 / Fiend / Xyz / Effect]
[ATK: 2400]
"Then I overlay the D/D/D Marksman King Tell from my Extra Deck directly on top of D/D/D Wave King Caesar!"
[D/D/D Marksman King Tell]
[Xyz Materials: 3]
[ATK: 2300]
"And finally, the main event!"
Genya pulled one last card from his Extra Deck and raised it high above his head, its glow so intense it was almost painful to look at.
"I activate the effect of D/D/D Deviser King Deus Machinex! This card can be Xyz Summoned by placing it directly on top of any 'D/D/D' monster I control!"
"I place it on top of D/D/D Marksman King Tell!"
"Awaken, my strongest ace - D/D/D Deviser King Deus Machinex!"
A massive obsidian throne slowly emerged from the sky. Seated lazily upon it was a fiend radiating overwhelming kingly pressure, its crimson eyes sweeping across the entire field as though every living thing in existence were beneath its notice.
[D/D/D Deviser King Deus Machinex]
[Rank 10 / Fiend / Xyz / Pendulum / Effect]
[Xyz Materials: 4]
[ATK: 3000]
