Yu-Gi-Oh!: Madoka, start!

"I Normal Summon Debug Ladybug."

Debug Ladybug Girl Attack 1700

"Debug Ladybug can only be activated when Summoned or Special Summoned. Add a Cyberse-type monster with a three star or lower level from your deck to your hand."

"I'm adding Control Boy to my hand."

"Battle!" Playmaker went straight into the battle phase.

"I'll use the Cybertron Clock Dragon to attack the Intercom Lancer."

"Activate the trap card healing transformation." Lightning immediately flipped open the cover card.

"When your monster is selected as an attack target, you can activate this card by releasing that monster. The Battle Phase ends. After that, you draw a card from your deck. If the card you drew is a monster, your Life Points return to that amount of ATK."

"I liberate the Intercom Lancer on the field to activate this card. The Battle Phase ends. Then I draw a card."

Lightning showed the card he drew and said, "The card I drew is Fire Defender. Therefore, my LP is restored by 1200 points."

Lightning LP 900→2100

"This is the end of my turn." Playmaker ended his turn.

......

"What's going on? It seems like both Playmaker and Lightning are having a hard time." Aoi keenly sensed something was wrong.

Not to mention Lightning, who had fought against Aoi herself, she could clearly realize that Lightning's strength was definitely more than that; Playmaker should be stronger than that, but the current situation was that Playmaker looked completely unable to move.

"Could it be because of the bond with the deck?" Zaizen Akira's voice suddenly sounded behind Aoi.

"What do you mean?" Aoi turned around and looked at Zaizen Akira seriously and asked.

"What this means is that Lightning and Playmaker are both tied to this deck. The mutual influence between the two sides caused both of them to get stuck." Zaizen Akira expressed his guess.

"How is that possible? Yusaku and I went to find the deck together, and I was the only one with Yusaku at the time." Kusanagi Sho shook his head to deny Zaizen Akira's guess.

Aoi suddenly sensed something was wrong from what Zaizen Akira said: "The Cyberseries deck can almost be said to be entirely created by Ignis or Yuzan, who is closely related to Ignis. Every Cyberseries monster that has appeared so far has not been outside of this."

"You mean!" Kusanagi Shoichi also realized the meaning of Aoi's words.

"I suspect that this deck that Playmaker has was originally given to you by Ai." Aoi said seriously.

“But the information about this deck was what Yusaku and I saw by chance on the forum, and we went through a lot of hardships to finally obtain this deck…” Kusanagi Shoichi’s voice became smaller and smaller until it became inaudible.

"It seems that you understand it. This kind of 'coincidence', as long as Ai, the native of the electronic world, wants, can create countless similar 'coincidences' on the web pages you browse. But the premise of all this is that Ai needs to understand your habits in advance." Aoi said seriously.

"So, Ai has been secretly paying attention to Playmaker and you for a long time before that?" Zaizen Akira looked at Kusanagi Shoichi with surprise written all over his face.

"Now that you've reminded me of this, when I think back on what happened back then, it does seem extremely deliberate." Kusanagi Shoichi murmured.

"Such a powerful Cybertron deck was openly posted on the forum, but we encountered very few competitors along the way."

"Even if there is the threat of the Knights of Hanno as the poster mentioned, it doesn't make sense that so few people would look for this deck."

The more Kusanagi Shoichi thought about it, the more frightened he became, and he finally realized how reckless they were. If Ai had bad intentions towards them, then their trip would be very dangerous.

"If that's the case, then the fact that Ai 'happened' to be caught by Yusaku, it's quite intriguing as to whether Ai had any plans of his own." Kusanagi Shoichi said, stroking his chin.

"All this is in the past. At least I believe that Ai now treats Playmaker the same way Aqua treats me. We can deal with these issues after Playmaker rescues Ai and the others." Aoi said with a smile.

"In this case, this war is actually a confrontation between the bond that Lightning has taken away from this deck, and the bond of friendship between Playmaker and the deck." Zaizen Akira said jokingly.

"No matter what, I believe Playmaker will be the winner based on both strength and bond." Aoi said with a smile.

......

"It's my turn, draw a card!" Lightning started his turn.

"I summon Fire Defender from my hand."

Fire Defender Attack 1200

"Show up! The circuit that guides the light!"

"The summoning condition is a Cyberseid monster of level 4 or below."

"I'll set the fire defender to connect marker."

"Link Summon, Salamangreat, Flame Lynx!"

Salamangreat Flame Lynx Attack 500 Link Mark:↓

"Salamangreat? Isn't this Soulburner's deck?" Playmaker looked at Lightning in confusion, and then Playmaker's eyes suddenly widened: "So this is the purpose of the game."

"Effect of Fireproof Defender. This card can only be activated when it is sent to the Graveyard as a Link Material for a Cyberse-type Link Monster. Special Summon a Fireproof Monster other than Fireproof Defender from your Deck."

"I Special Summon Fireproof Phantom from my Deck in Attack Position."

Fire Phantom Attack 2000

"Show up! The circuit that guides the light!"

"The summoning conditions are two Cybertron monsters."

"I set a connection mark between Fireproof Phantom and Beacon Lynx."

"Link Summon, link2 Splash Screen Mage!"

Splash Screen Mage Attack 1100 Connection Mark: ↗↘

"Effect of Fireproof Phantom. This card can only be activated when it is sent to the Graveyard as a Link Material for a Cyber-type Link Monster. Add a Cybernet Spell or Trap Card from your Deck to your hand. After that, choose a card from your hand and discard it."

"I added the Computer Network Codec from my deck to my hand. Then I discarded the Save Kaiba from my hand."

"I activate the permanent magic computer network codec."

Few people knew better than Playmaker how powerful this card was in his deck, and Playmaker's expression gradually became solemn.
