Yu-Gi-Oh! Starting from Duel City

Chapter 230 Illiteracy wins or loses
"You have a good idea, Seto...but the evil monster you used is not at all compatible with the Utopia I plan to create."

Glancing at the vampire in front of Kaiba, Naia pulled out a new card from the deck: "It's my turn next! The devil should return to the darkness of chaos. I will directly draw it from the card in my hand. Activate the magic card [Earth Shatter] to destroy the monster with the highest defense on the opponent's field!"

A huge iron fist fell from the sky, shattering the ground at the feet of the [Vampire Lord] with one punch, dragging him into the dark abyss.

After relying on the effect of the magic card to destroy Kaiba's monster, Naia then placed a new monster card on the duel plate: "Then, I normally summon [Warrior Ares] from my hand (attack power: 1800)."

The monster, which looked like a Greek warrior with a spear and a round shield in its hands, followed Naia's movements and came to him.

"Oops! There is no monster on Kaiba's field to serve as a barrier... He will be directly attacked by the monster next!"

Looking at the situation on the field, Muto Yugi, who had turned into a small watch state, couldn't help but exclaimed from his mouth.

The reality was just as he had guessed. Naia, who had summoned the monster, gave him the attack instructions without hesitation: "Go, Ares, launch a direct attack on Seto!"

Setting up the spear in his hand, the monster who received Naia's instructions immediately accelerated and sprinted to Kaiba, waving the weapon in his hand vigorously.

Kaiba, being a ruthless man, showed no signs of weakness and used the duel disk in his hand to fight back, blocking the spear thrust directed at him.

Although the damage Kaiba suffered would not change due to his own resistance, at least through his counterattack, he could avoid being knocked away by the monster.

"Well……!!!"

(Seto Kaiba LP: 3200→1400)

You Ling: "...Kaiba's health has dropped below half health."

Jonouchi: "What? That Kaiba, who always has his eyes on top, actually fell into a disadvantage?"

"Next, I Ambush a card, and that's the end of my turn."

Naia, who had dealt a lot of damage to Kaiba, inserted a new card into the back of the duel plate.

After glancing at Kaiba, who was frowning due to the attack just now, Naia, who had the advantage in the game, immediately made a teasing voice from his mouth: "What's wrong, Seto? The deck you are so proud of is... Do you only have this level of strength? If you don’t take it seriously, the winner will be decided in an instant, right?”

"...or are you actually taking it seriously now?"

Although he said that Kaiba should be serious, what appeared on Naia's face was a look of contempt.

"Hmph! My turn, draw cards!"

Pulling out a new card from the deck with a handsome gesture, Kaiba immediately stretched out his arm in front of his body: "At this moment, I activate the effect of the previously destroyed [Vampire Lord]!"

"When this card is destroyed by the opponent's effect, it can be specially summoned to the field during the preparation phase of the next turn!"

Multiple bats dragged a black coffin out of a large hole in the ground.

The person who came out of the coffin was the [Vampire Lord] (attack power: 2000) that was destroyed by the effect of the magic card just now.

He possesses the power of immortality. Even though he was destroyed once by Naia, he can still return to Kaiba in this way. "It's not over yet! I haven't done a normal summon this round yet!"

Said Kaiba, he placed a card in his hand on the deck of the duel plate: "I summon [Newt] in my hand in attack position (Demon/Wind/4 Stars/Attack: 1900 /Defense: 400)."

Following Kaiba's movement, a bald demon wearing golden armor came in front of his body.

Although the image of this monster looks a bit funny, its basic attributes are there and it is unique among 4-star monsters.

"Hey~ Now Kaiba will have two powerful monsters on the field! He will start to fight back!"

Although he has always been very unhappy with Kaiba's cold attitude, Jonouchi has temporarily put aside his personal grudges when facing Naia, who is the mastermind behind the scenes.

The most important thing right now is to defeat Naia who is blocking the way.

As for the other ones, their priority is slightly lower.

"Seto, you actually want to defile my holy land with these evil demons?"

"Hmph! Naia... Since you plan to play the creator of the world, then I will come to rule your world!"

After completing the deployment, Kaiba quickly entered the battle phase of this round and issued an attack command to the monsters on the field: "Battle begins, first is the attack of [Vampire Lord]!"

"Oh, it is only right that such an evil soul should return to the earth!"

Facing the monster's attack, Naia reached out and opened the cover card in the backfield: "The trap card [Crust Change] is activated! Based on the effect of this card, I declare the attributes of the two monsters and let the opponent choose one of them. ...When there are monsters on the field with attributes selected by the opponent, all those monsters will be destroyed!"

The corner of his mouth curled up with a hint of joy, and his eyes swept over the two monsters on the seahorse field. Naia then declared proudly: "The attributes I chose are wind and darkness... Okay, Seto, let's go on. It’s up to you to choose one of them!”

"...Naia! You bastard!"

"Okay, make your choice quickly, Seto!"

I don’t know if it was intentional or accidental, but in short, the two attributes mentioned by Naia happened to represent the two monsters on Kaiba Field.

The current Kaiba, as if he had received a shot of "illiteracy victory" in a situation where he had an advantage, could only be forced to accept the outcome of one of the two choices.

"The attack power of [Newt] from the wind attribute demon tribe is 1900, and the attack power of [Vampire Lord] from the dark attribute undead tribe is 2000. Generally speaking, at this time, you will definitely choose to keep the side with the higher attack power, but... "

After thinking for a while, Kaiba frowned and made his final choice: "I choose... dark attribute!"

"Hey, in that case, according to the effect of the trap card, [Vampire Lord] will be destroyed!"

Facing the monster that was about to attack him just now, Naia stretched out his palm with a proud look on his face: "Disappear for me! [Vampire Lord]!"
