Can I become the Yu-Gi-Oh by summoning the Flame Swordsman?

"Appear, the circuit that harnesses the power of fear! The tyrannical monarch who rules the world, releases the three-headed demon dog that guards hell, and crushes all rebels with tyranny! Link Summon, link3! [Intimidation Claw Tribe - Treichart] (Darkness/Beast Warrior Tribe/Link/Effect/3000)"

"Link 3 alone has 3000 attack power?" Bai Chu frowned.

Although it is not uncommon for Link3 to have an attack power of over 3000, most of them have some harsh summoning conditions, or have no special abilities.

The summoning conditions of this Link3 Intimidation Minion in front of us are three of the simplest effect monsters. It is not clear what monster effects they have at the moment.

As [Treichhart, the Minion of Intimidation] descended from the sky riding on the three-headed hellhound, a domineering evil spirit spread across the field. The only remaining lightning terror beast on the field was instantly frightened and lay on the ground, trembling, not daring to breathe.

It has to be said that the king of beasts has many and varied colors on his body. His skin, which is as blue as the starry sky, is wrapped in purple armor. The three-headed hound of hell has green hair and claws, and his whole body exudes pink fighting spirit. Various colors are mixed together, like light pollution. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is a Shamatte from another world.

"When [Intimidation Minion Treichart] is on the field, all face-up monsters on the field must be changed to Defense Position. Also, this card on the field is not affected by the effects of Defense Position monsters." Fang Zhong grinned.

"Force everyone to submit to him?"

“In addition, while Treichart is in an Extra Monster Zone, once per turn, you can select 1 Level 1 “Intimidation Minion” monster in your Graveyard and Special Summon it, then add 1 “Intimidation Minion” monster from your Deck to your hand. During the turn this effect was activated, you cannot Special Summon a monster other than a “Intimidation Minion” monster.

Based on this effect, I choose to Special Summon the High Terror from the Graveyard, then add the second High Terror from the Deck to my hand and Special Summon it from my hand."

"Intentionally gather two [Intimidation Minions·High-altitude Terror Beasts]? Does it have any special effect?"

"You guessed it right, Bai Chu, but there is no reward." Fang Zhong laughed and said, "In addition to being able to be special summoned from the hand cards, all my fear beasts will also provide Trechihart with special additional abilities while they are subservient to him.

For example, if each of my [Intimidation Minion·High Fear Beast] is in the Monster Zone, the ATK of my own "Intimidation Minion" monsters in the Extra Monster Zone can be increased by the number of Defense Position monsters on my field x 300.

Now, I have 3 Defense Position monsters on the field, so Treichart's ATK increases by 300x2x3 to 1800 (ATK 3000 → 4800)."

Bai Chu exclaimed, "He actually let his monster's attack power reach 4800 in the first round?! And Fang Zhong has 4 hand cards in his hand."

"Bai Chu, what do you think? This is the posture of a strong man that you will never be able to contend with," Fang Zhong drew another card from his hand: "I activate the continuous magic card, [World Destruction].

This card can prevent the "Intimidation Minion" Link Monster on your field from becoming the target of the opponent's effects and from being destroyed by the opponent's effects. Finally, I cover two cards and the turn ends.

Bai Chu, you should be thankful that there is no Battle Phase in my first turn. You still have a chance to struggle for a while. My Thunder Terrorbeast can allow its "Intimidation Minion" monsters to attack up to the number of "Intimidation Minion" monsters in Defense Position on its field during the same Battle Phase.

Next turn, I can have 3 types of [Intimidation Minion] monsters in defense position on the field, which means [Intimidation Minion·Tretchheart] can attack 4800 times with 3 attack power. White Cluster, I will tear you apart in an instant!"

"You keep chattering away, don't you? It's my turn, time to draw cards!" Bai Chu looked at the cards in his hand with a heavy breath.

"Because of this guy's Link Monster, all the monsters I summon must be in Defense Position, and they can't be targeted by effects. This is just a Link 3 monster... Then, the only way to counter it is to use a Link that can't be put into Defense Position to counter the Link!"

Bai Chu nodded and drew a card from his hand: "First, I activate the Normal Magic Card, [One on One], this card can send 1 monster from your hand to the Graveyard, and Special Summon 1 Level 1 monster from your hand or deck.

I choose to send the monster in my hand, [Lava Fierce Dragon], to the Graveyard, and Special Summon the monster from my Deck, [Fire Lady] (Flame/★1/Warrior/Effect/100/100).”

"Humph, you can even bring out such a weak level 1 monster? Bai Chu, you are not as scary as the rumors say. In fact, I feel that you are quite friendly."

Fang Zhong smiled maliciously and said, "Oh, by the way, I forgot to tell you, Bai Chu, when my Field Magic Card, [World of Fear] is activated on the field, it will inspire fear in your monsters, reducing the attack and defense of all monsters on your field by the number of monsters in defense position on your field and mine x 100.

I have 3 monsters in Defense Position on the field, so all your monsters will have their attack and defense reduced by 300. If you add more monsters in Defense Position to the field, the reduction will be even greater. For example, your Level 1 monster will have its attack and defense reduced to 0 as soon as it enters the field.

"Hmph, so what?" Bai Chu looked grim: "When [Yellow Iron Fool Knight] is in your hand or graveyard, you can select 1 Warrior-Type monster with Earth or Fire attribute on your field other than [Yellow Iron Fool Knight] and return it to your hand, and Special Summon this card. After that, Special Summon 1 "Yellow Iron Token" (Warrior-Type, Fire, 4*, ATK 0/DEF 2000) in Defense Position on your opponent's field.

I choose to return the [Fire Cutter] on the field to my hand, Special Summon the monster, [Yellow Iron Fool Knight] (Earth/★5/Warrior/Effect/2000/0), and Special Summon 1 [Yellow Iron Token] on your field.

"Bai Chu, you are so nice, I like you so much." Fang Zhong laughed coldly: "Because I have one more monster in defense position on the field, according to the monster effects of the two high-altitude fear beasts, Treichhart's attack power increases by 2 to 600!"

"I activate a continuous magic card, [One Touch Ground]. Also, when you have a Warrior-Type monster on the field, you can Special Summon [Fire Cutter] from your hand and make it appear again! [Fire Cutter].

At this time, the effect of [One Touch Landing] is activated! Once per turn, when there is only 1 monster Special Summoned from your or your opponent's hand to your field, draw 1 card from your deck.

After that, there is another effect of [Fire Lady]. By sending this card on the field to the Graveyard, you can Special Summon 1 Level 4 or lower Warrior-Type monster from your hand. During this turn, your opponent cannot target the monster Special Summoned by this effect.

I choose to Special Summon the monster in my hand, [Hero Boy] (Earth/★2/Warrior/Effect/300/600)

When [Hero Boy] is Special Summoned successfully, you can Special Summon any number of [Hero Boy] from your deck. I will Special Summon 2 more [Hero Boy] from your deck.

"Summoned four monsters instantly?" Fang Zhong's mocking smile finally subsided a lot, and he began to take the young opponent in front of him seriously.

"The summoning conditions are 2 monsters including EARTH monsters. I set 2 EARTH monsters, [Hero Boy] to the link mark and link summon! Come out, link2, [Earth Spirit Envoy_Os] (EARTH/Mage/Link/Effect/1850)

In addition, the summoning conditions are 2 monsters with different card names. I set the last one [Hero Boy] and [Yellow Iron Knight] to the link mark and link summon! Come out, link1, [Fire Swordsman] (Fire/Warrior/Link/Effect/2)"

"Bai Chu, I've made you realize that Link Monsters cannot be put into Defense Position, so the only ones that can fight against my Treichhart are Link Monsters." Fang Zhong nodded.

"You have already Link Summoned 2 Link2 monsters on the field, which is enough for you to Link Summon Link4 monsters. I think it is more than enough to deal with my Link3 Treichart. However, Bai Chu, I will not let your plot succeed!

The moment you successfully Link Summon, I activate the face-up card, a normal trap card, [The Evil Twin Fangs].

When this card is activated, you must Tribute 1 "Intimidation Minion" monster on your field, and select 2 cards on your opponent's field and destroy them. I choose to Tribute [Intimidation Minion - Thunder Terror Beast] and destroy your Link Monsters, [Fire Swordsman] and [Giant Earth Spirit - Oss].

"What!?" Zhang Zhu, who was watching the game, was shocked. "Just a trap card destroyed all the results of Mr. Bai's hard work for half a day?"

Fang Zhong laughed wildly, "Hahahaha - Bai Chu, you watched me get this Trap Card through the effect of [Intimidation Minion - Reichhart], but you didn't even take any countermeasures. I am very disappointed in you. Now you have lost 4 cards in your hand, and all the monsters on the field are destroyed. Bai Chu, you will die in my hands today!"
