Fusion is the noblest form of summoning!

“I didn’t expect to lose after all?”

After the duel ended, the two duelists shook hands, and Jim couldn't help but say to Tenjoin Hikari.

“I just happen to know a lot about Fossil Fusion.” Tenjoin Hikari replied with a smile.

“Woof—”

“Karen says, there's no need to pretend to be humble at this time.”

“Haha…”

Tenjoin Hikari laughed a few times.

Indeed, he didn't “happen” to know about Fossil Fusion, but he knew quite a few Fossil Fusion cards.

Before he came to this world, in the 11 series' main “Abyss” world view, there were many cards related to teaching. Teaching was also a mainstream deck for a while. Among them, the tactic of sending extra deck cards to the graveyard to achieve graveyard plays was also very popular.

Even before Tenjoin Hikari traveled through time, he would bring El Shaddoll Construct when playing the Shaddoll series deck for casual games, which was very convenient to activate.

And some of the Fusion Monsters in Fossil Fusion have effects similar to Ntss the Ancient Entity, such as the Fossil Machine Skull Wagon that Jim used before, which can banish itself from the graveyard to destroy the opponent's Spell/Trap.

Among the Fossil Fusion monsters, there are also similar cards that banish themselves to destroy monsters.

For Tenjoin Hikari, who lacked direct destruction of cards on the field, he had always wanted to try the Fossil Fusion route. After all, Fossil Fusion can not only remove cards from the opponent's graveyard, but also has relatively good graveyard effects, which is very suitable for Tenjoin Hikari's tactics.

But beyond that, Tenjoin Hikari was more curious about Tyrant Neptune.

“By the way, Jim, can I take a look at that card?” Tenjoin Hikari asked curiously.

Normally, other people's ace cards are not casually shown to others.

Even if they are relatively close friends, suddenly making such a request is very impolite and very suspicious.

Cards are life to duelists. Asking to see the other person's card is like looking at the other person's “life.”

Moreover, more importantly…

The people in this world all grew up listening to the legends of duelists such as Yugi Muto and Seto Kaiba.

They are too clear about it.

Legend has it that Insect Queen Haga, on his way to Duelist Kingdom, took advantage of Yugi Muto's lack of vigilance and threw his ace card “Exodia” into the sea!

This matter is also recorded in Mr. Yugi's adventure story and Mr. Joey Wheeler's autobiography!

But Jim just frowned slightly, then immediately relaxed his brow, smiled, picked up his deck, found one of the cards, and explained how he got the card.

“Dug it up?” Tenjoin Hikari looked at the card, somewhat surprised, hesitated for a moment, then gently raised it and showed it to the side.

Tierra emerged, lowered her head and glanced at it, then raised her head and signaled to him with her eyes.

Seeing this, Tenjoin Hikari knew what was going on.

As he expected.

“What's wrong?”

“No, it's nothing.” Tenjoin Hikari smiled and returned the card to Jim.

Through the brief observation just now, Tenjoin Hikari had already determined the situation of this card.

Of course—

To be precise, Tierra determined it, and Tenjoin Hikari received the hint.

Tyrant Neptune was already a permanent member of the ban list before he traveled to this world, not only because of its effect of copying other monsters' effects, but most importantly, with the development of Yu-Gi-Oh!, the card pool of Duel Monsters is getting deeper and deeper. Cards like Tyrant Neptune, which can be directly searched for with specific methods, can easily cooperate with some other means to become an ultimate monster that cannot be dealt with at all, or can instantly win.

It is foreseeable that as the future card pool becomes deeper and deeper, and more and more strange monsters appear, the effect of this card will become more and more “terrifying”—just like the name of Magical Scientist, “the second strongest single card in history,” becomes more and more resounding with the development of the times.

Tyrant Neptune will also become more and more difficult to release as the card pool becomes deeper and deeper.

But these are not particularly important to Tenjoin Hikari at the moment.

The main problem is that this card is really Jim's card in the “original work.”

Of course, not the anime original, but… the manga “Yu-Gi-Oh! GX.”

Tenjoin Hikari hadn't really considered these before.

After all, the main plot and the final BOSS of the anime and manga are completely different.

Although the Manjoume of this world is also a disciple of Seto Kaiba, the development of things and the personality of people are completely the people and things of the anime world. Although there are changes due to the influence of the dimensional gate, these are all things that Tenjoin Hikari can understand and accept.

Furthermore, the Manjoume of this world has always had Light and Darkness Dragon, and Jack of the S dimension has Red Nova Dragon. These things are telling Tenjoin Hikari that it is not strange that the people of this world have their own cards from the manga version.

But—

Just now, Tenjoin Hikari carefully observed Tyrant Neptune's card and asked Tierra to confirm the energy, and finally understood.

Some things are not non-existent, but “gone.”

Non-existent and gone are two completely different meanings.

Tenjoin Hikari clicked his tongue in wonder.

The final BOSS of the manga version of “Yu-Gi-Oh! GX,” the monster known as “Lobster,” Tragœdia, has the ability to manipulate people's hearts. It is an ancient evil monster from ancient Egypt. Later, a priest sealed it in a stone tablet with its heart. In the plot of the manga, it slowly awakens and controls humans to try to resurrect.

At first glance, it sounds quite powerful, an ancient monster, a great power sealed by an ancient Egyptian priest, and able to manipulate people's hearts…

But to be honest, a bunch of these kinds of villains who sound powerful can be pulled out from Tierra's hometown.

What Archfiend, Evilswarm, taking a few strong ones from them is more than enough to be a similar evil god.

They are probably not as strong as Tragœdia, but they are of this type, without any particularly outstanding points.

In short, it is a villain character who “sounds bluffing, but is nothing at all when you think about it carefully.”

You must know that the final BOSS of the anime version of “Yu-Gi-Oh! GX,” the end of the world, the embodiment of the future of human destruction, “Darkness,” may be a bit of a rookie in dueling, but its supernatural abilities are never weak. Its power covers the earth and can almost instantly plunge all human beings into darkness and lose themselves. If Jaden Yuki wasn't a dual soul, he wouldn't even have the qualifications to duel.

But these are actually unimportant things. The most important thing is—the cards used to undo Tragœdia's seal and resurrect it.

That is, the Supreme Sun, Nimble Sunfish, Brilliant Venus, etc., including Tyrant Neptune, are collectively called the “Planet Series” cards.

These cards… also need to be manufactured.

Then since they need to be manufactured, who should manufacture them?

Yes—that's right, it's Aster's father again.

Human power has its limits, and time is also limited. Even Aster's father, that outrageous card designer, can't create Destiny HEROes, create Evil HEROes, think about creating Masked HEROes, and be controlled to create the Planet Series…

The key point is that the several “great powers” controlling him must also be in order of priority or strength, right?

Obviously, the unresurrected Tragœdia has no way to compete with the Light of Destruction.

Not to mention that the Light of Destruction itself is very strong, it also absorbed the destructive impulses of other dimensions, which is even more overwhelming for Tragœdia.

Similarly, it is the same when switching to Darkness.

Perhaps the complete state of Tragœdia will not be too weak in terms of power, and may even be comparable to Darkness, but that is also the “resurrected” it.

Looking at the appearance of that Tyrant Neptune just now, Tragœdia should have died very peacefully.

Tenjoin Hikari said goodbye to Jim and supported him to finish the resurrection match and become the eighth strongest to duel him again. Jim said a few words like “Spare me, another match is too exhausting.”

That's what he said, but he didn't look like he was backing down at all.

Returning to the waiting hall, Tenjoin Hikari was still thinking about Darkness.

Now that I think about it, no wonder Fubuki was personally controlled by Darkness when he was a Seven Star. He had been wondering for a long time, and he didn't understand it until just now. After all, judging from the real situation, Darkness could not have descended into the world so quickly.

As a result, looking at it this way, Darkness was not really idle. It turned out that it was first harvesting its peers to strengthen itself.

Tenjoin Hikari leaned on the sofa, thinking.

Actually, this is not the first time this kind of thing has happened in front of Tenjoin Hikari.

At the beginning, Kagemaru also died inexplicably. It wasn't until later that Tenjoin Hikari learned that it was Reiji Akaba who did it.

Looking at it this way, perhaps in this world, and in other worlds, there may be situations like Kagemaru and Tragœdia.

It is obvious that cooperation between villains cannot be achieved by a few slogans. It would be good if they don't pit each other.

Then—

He suddenly realized another thing, and quickly took out [Five-Headed Dragon] from his deck, staring blankly at it. It seemed a little puzzled and roared confusedly.

“I'm thinking about your business.” Tenjoin Hikari responded with a smile.

The final villain of the manga version of “5D's” is the righteous thigh of the anime version of “5D's”!

Considering that Jack really has Red Nova Dragon, and he really has Five-Headed Dragon, Tenjoin Hikari is a little unsure of the situation.

After thinking about it, Tenjoin Hikari felt that he had to wait until he went to the S dimension to be sure.

Compared to the invisible future, there is one thing that excites him more—that is, it's time to check his deck after a long absence!

“Ha…” Tenjoin Hikari opened the deck, looked around, and his eyes lit up.

Here it comes! Here it comes! Fossil Machine Skull Wagon really exists!
