Chapter 11 The Condor and the Black Dragon
"I'll take the first strike." Peacock Dance moved one step faster than Jonouchi and seized the right to strike first. She drew a card from the deck and added it to her hand. "First, I activate the magic card [Rough Man's Prediction]. When there are no monsters on my field, special summon a normal monster with level 4 or lower from the deck."
"Let this idiot Jonouchi see how powerful you are, [Harpy]!"
As a rain of feathers fell from the sky, a female monster with a humanoid appearance and a pair of bird wings appeared on the peacock dance field. It was her favorite monster, [Eagle]. Banshee].
【Harpy】【4☆/Wind】
【Bird/Beast Tribe/Normal】
【1300/1400】
"It's [Harpy]. I really miss it. So Mai, you should still have that card in your hand, right?" Jonouchi said with a smile.
"So, that's the only disadvantage of dueling with people you know. All the cards in your hand can be guessed." Peacock Dance nodded helplessly, "Because I have [Harpy] on the field, I Activate the magic card in your hand, [Wanhua Mirror-Gorgeous Clone-]."
As Peacock Dance puts the card into the magic trap card area, next to the [Harpy] on the Peacock Dance field, a new monster slowly appears like a clone.
In the past duel kingdom period, for Peacock Dance's [Wanhua Mirror-Gorgeous Clone-], the description on the card was [The harpy's graceful and gorgeous dance seems to have created a clone], and the effect was to change the field. The [Harpy] above becomes [The Three Harpy Sisters].
However, as duel monsters become more and more regular, ancient cards such as [Magic Mist Rain] and [Manhua Mirror-Gorgeous Clone-] have all undergone a remake, and their effects have changed. The effect of the current [Wanhua Mirror-Gorgeous Clone-] is:
"From the cards in my hand or the deck, I can special summon 1 [Harpy] or [Three Harpy Sisters]." Peacock Dance retrieved a card from the deck and placed it On the duel plate, "Come out, [Three Harpy Sisters]!"
【Three Harpy Sisters】【6☆/Wind】
[Birds/Beasts/Special Summons/Effects]
【1950/2100】
After the [Three Harpy Sisters], who were like three gophers and had three bodies in total but were counted as one monster, appeared on the stage, Peacock Mai smiled at Jonouchi who was standing opposite her and said, "How are you, Jonouchi? How are my [Harpies]? But it’s too early to be surprised now, I’ll activate these two cards again.”
"The Continuous Magic Card, [Charming Two Mirrors], and the Field Magic Card, [Harpy's Hunting Ground]!"
In the backfield of Peacock Dance, a mirror with the reflections of two [harpies] slowly rose up. At the same time, the duel venue also changed because Peacock Dance activated the field magic card, changing from the sky to the sky. For an empty desert.
As if coming to a familiar place, the [Harpy] on the peacock dance ground excitedly flew into the air, riding the strong wind of the wilderness and hovering, as if waiting for its prey to appear.
"[Harpy's Hunting Ground] can increase the attack power and defense power of all bird beast monsters on both sides by 200 points. But, you don't have bird beast monsters, right? Castle?" chuckled. Covering a card, Peacock declared, "Cover a card and my turn ends."
[Peacock Dance: 4000LP, 1 card in hand]
【Harpy】【ATK1300→1500】
【Three Harpy Sisters】【ATK1950→2150】
[Gaika] [Charming two-mirror photo]
Venue: [Harpy’s Hunting Ground]
Looking at the luxurious lineup on the Peacock Dance Arena, a smile appeared on Jonouchi's face: "I didn't expect you to be so serious, Mai. It seems that you are full of desire for victory in your heart, right? However, my competitive spirit is not I will lose to you."
"My turn, draw a card!"
After pulling out the card at the top of the deck, Jonouchi showed an excited expression on his face: "Yoshi, I activate the magic card [Pot of Desire] and draw two cards from the deck!"
"Then, I activate the magic card [Fusion], and send [Baby Dragon] and [Pterodactyl Warrior] from my hand to the graveyard as fusion materials!" The two cards in Jonouchi's hand turned into two streams of light. Merged into the whirlpool of [Fusion] that appeared on his field, "Come out, [Dragon Warrior Riding the Dragon]!"
"Hmph, did the fusion summon a powerful monster? What a pity, Jonouchi!"
Looking at the monsters appearing on the field in the city, Peacock Dance immediately opened the cover card in her back field: "Activate the trap card, [Naraku's Cave]! When you summon, reverse summon, or special summon, the attack power is more than 1500 When there are monsters, destroy and eliminate those monsters!”
【Dragon Warrior Riding the Dragon】【ATK1700】
Seeing that the Gaika activated by Peacock Mai was about to destroy the monster he had just summoned, the smile on Jonouchi's face became more and more proud: "Haha, Mai, you have completely wasted your card. I never said that I We have to use [Dragon Riding Dragon Warrior] to fight."
"Chaining the [Naraku's Cave] you activated, I activate the quick-attack magic card [Fusion Release] to turn the [Dragon-riding Dragon Warrior] on my field back to its fusion material - [Baby Dragon], and [ Pterodactyl Warrior]!”
Just when [Dragon Warrior Riding the Dragon] was about to fall into the bottomless abyss, it suddenly turned into two streams of light and escaped from the trap, returned to the field within the city, and transformed back into the [Dragon Warrior Riding the Dragon] that had just been sent to the graveyard before. Baby Dragon] and [Pterodactyl Warrior].
"Hmph, you actually dodged it." Peacock Wu curled her lips in displeasure, "But what if you saved these two monsters? Whether it is [Baby Dragon] or [Pterodactyl Warrior], their attack power is None can compare to my [Harpy]."
【Baby Dragon】【ATK1200】
【Pterodactyl Warrior】【ATK1500】
"Don't forget one thing, Mai." Jonouchi smiled and showed a card in his hand, "I haven't done a normal summons this turn."
On the grounds within the city, a raging fire suddenly ignited. The flames that seemed to be able to burn everything turned [Baby Dragon] and [Pterodactyl Warrior] into two pillars of fire rising into the sky in this desert. !
"Use the [Baby Dragon] and [Pterodactyl Warrior] on my field as sacrifices for the higher-level summons! Use your pitch-black flames to devour everything, [True Red-Eyed Black Dragon]!"
As Jonouchi put the cards in his hand on the duel plate, the strongest ace monster in his deck - [Red-Eyed Black Dragon] shattered the fire pillar with its huge wings. Bathed in flames, the jet-black dragon looked up to the sky and spit out a mouthful of dragon flames. , let out a loud dragon roar.
"Roar!!!"
[True Red Eyes Black Dragon] [7☆/Dark]
【Dragon/Normal】
【2400/2000】
Regarding Jonouchi's operation, Hayato in the audience said it was a good job. Suddenly, he felt that the future "Yushidai Judai" was more like the heir of Jonouchi than the heir of Yugi. The classic five-for-one, plus a hand of European Emperor's Divine Draw, these two people have nothing to do with each other. Hayato doesn't believe it.
In the duel field, Jonouchi, who summoned [Red-Eyes Black Dragon], was full of confidence: "Although [Red-Eyes Black Dragon] is already quite powerful now, since I have this card in my hand, I will activate it. Equip Magic Card [Dark Dragon Claw]! Only dark dragon monsters can equip this card."
"The monster equipped with this card will have its attack power increased by 600 points!"
[True Red Eyes Black Dragon] (Dark Dragon Claw) [ATK2400→3000]
"The attack power is actually equivalent to [Blue-Eyes White Dragon]?!" Peacock Mai on the opposite side was shocked when she saw a combo in Jonouchi, and subconsciously looked at her own field, "Oops, my [Harpy] All of them are attacking!"
"Hey, my battle phase has begun, [True Red-Eyed Black Dragon], launching an attack on [Harpy]!" Jonouchi selected [Harpy] with the lowest attack power on the Peacock Dance Field as his attack target, "Up [True Red Eyes], Black Flame Bullet!"
The [Dark Dragon Claws] are clearly equipped on the claws of [True Red-Eyes Black Dragon], but what is amplified is the black flame spitting out from the mouth of [True Red-Eyes Black Dragon]. Just a moment after the hit, the [Harpy] hovering over the peacock dance venue was shot down, destroyed and sent to the cemetery.
Peacock Dance's base score also suffered as a result.
[Peacock Dance: 4000→2500LP]
"Oh, you really have a chance, within the city." Peacock Dance looked at the 1500 basic points he had lost, and sent the [Harpy] card into the graveyard.
Even under the 8000LP rule, 1500 points of damage is not a handful, not to mention that now it is a 4000LP rule. Peacock Dance's basic score is only a little more than half of what it was at the beginning, which makes her regret a little. Why not put [Harpy] in defense position during the turn.
However, although a monster was destroyed by Jonouchi, Peacock Wu, who always held a grudge, immediately activated the effect of the card on his field.
"Because the [Harpy] on my field was destroyed by your battle, the effect of the permanent magic card [Charming Mirror] in my back field is activated." Behind the mirror erected on the field after Peacock Dance , a brand new [Harpy] came out of the mirror,
"From my deck, special summon a [Harpy] monster with a name different from the destroyed monster! Come out, [Harpy 1]!"
As soon as it appeared on the Peacock Dance field, [Harpy 1] immediately rose into the air, riding the wild wind, and attacked the [Red-Eyed Black Dragon] on the field within the city!
"Hey, Mai! Is your monster crazy? It actually attacks the [True Red-Eyed Black Dragon]?" The expression on Jonouchi's face was very surprised. He hadn't seen one thing yet - [Harpy 1] The target of the attack is not the [True Red-Eyes Black Dragon] at all, but the [Dark Dragon Claw] equipped on the [True Red-Eyes Black Dragon]!
"Do you think I'm as stupid as you?" Maouwu complained, raising the duel disk on her wrist, reminding Jonouchi that she also activated the field magic card, "The card name of [Harpy 1] can be Used as [Harpy], and every time [Harpy] or [Three Harpy Sisters] are summoned or special summoned by both parties, the effect of [Harpy's Hunting Ground] will be forced launch."
"Specify a magic and trap card on the field and destroy it!" Peacock Dance pointed at the [True Red Eyes Black Dragon] in the city, "If you do such a rude thing to the elegant Lady, it is your [True Red Eyes] that I want to destroy. The [Dark Dragon Claw] equipped by the Black Dragon!"
The swooping [Harpy 1] made an elegant turn, avoiding the bite of [True Red-Eyed Black Dragon], and its sharp claws fell on [Dark Dragon Claw], waiting until it returned to the field of Peacock Dance. , [True Red-Eyed Black Dragon] discovered in confusion that his claws had actually been damaged.
[True Red Eyes Black Dragon] [ATK3000→2400]
"Not only that, [Harpy 1]'s own effect is to increase the attack power of all wind attribute monsters on both sides by 300 points, which means -"
"The attack power of [The Three Harpy Sisters] has exceeded your [Red-Eyed Black Dragon]!"
【Harpy 1】【ATK1300→1500→1800】
【Three Harpy Sisters】【ATK1950→2150→2450】
"Tsk, what a troublesome opponent." Jonouchi glanced at his hand in distress. This feeling of knowing that his monster will be destroyed next turn but having nothing to do is really unpleasant. "Cover a card, my End of round.”
[Within the city: 4000LP, 0 cards in hand]
【True Red Eyes Black Dragon】【ATK2400】
【Gaika】
"Hmph, it's my turn." Peacock Dance looked at the card she drew, which was [Resurrection of the Dead]. Although it is not impossible to use it now, Peacock Dance feels that it is really useful to use such a useful [Resurrection of the Dead] on [Harpy] in his own cemetery or [Baby Dragon] and [Pterodactyl Warrior] in the cemetery in the city. It's a bit too wasteful.
"Then, enter my battle stage!" Peacock Dance waved her hand forward, "[Three Harpy Sisters], attack the [True Red-Eyed Black Dragon] on the field inside the city! Condor dives!"
"Yoshi, we're about to attack!" After receiving Peacock Dance's attack command, the [Three Harpy Sisters], who had been overlooking the ground in the sky for a long time, immediately took action impatiently.
The eldest sister among the three sisters rushed to the front, attracting the attention of the [True Red-Eyes Black Dragon] and tricking it out of its dragon flames. The second sister took this opportunity to attack the belly of the [True Red-Eyes Black Dragon]. It blocked it with its claws. But just after [True Red-Eyes Black Dragon] thought that he had received all the attacks, the third sister of [Three Harpy Sisters] did not launch an attack until then, tearing open the throat of [True Red-Eyes Black Dragon] with one blow Kill it.
[Within the city: 4000→3950LP]
"Then there is a direct attack from this monster, [Harpy 1]!"
Seeing another monster on the Peacock Dance Field launching a direct attack on him, Jonouchi smiled: "This is what I've been waiting for, the trap card, [Counterattack Gate] is activated!"
In front of the attacking [Harpy 1], a portal suddenly appeared.
