Yu-Gi-Oh! 5Ds: Duelists Beyond Light

Chapter 165 Speed ​​164 The Three-pronged Dragon that Destroys Hope
"Shuashua————————"

At Goro Nobunosuke's command, two gusts of wind, as swift and fierce as thunder, suddenly erupted across the battlefield. The Six Warriors, wielding twin swords, roared loudly, launching two blasts of sword energy at You Qing. However, just as the sword energy was about to explode, a sudden surge of frost completely froze the attack. Accompanied by an ancient dragon roar, three blasts of frost dragon breath blasted towards Goro Nobunosuke!
The cover cards flipped over one after another, causing Goro Shinnosuke's face to change suddenly.

He knew You Qing's backfield was no slouch, but he hadn't expected this guy to be able to Synchro Summon the Ice Barrier's strongest dragon—the Trident Dragon—during his own battle phase!
He clearly remembered the summoning conditions for the Ice Barrier Dragon, Trident Dragon: it required at least three monsters to be Synchro Summoned!
This guy You Qing...

How on earth did they do that?!

Goro Nobunosuke subconsciously pressed the long sword at his waist, his face solemn as he gritted his teeth and looked at the three trap cards that were faintly visible in the wind and snow!
"The moment you attack, I activate the Trap Card—Resurrection Gift!!" You Qing shouted, standing between the Frost of the Trident Dragon. "I Special Summon a Tuner Monster from the Graveyard. This effect negates the effects of Special Summoned Monsters!"

"And Special Summon two Level 3 Ritual Demon Tokens on your opponent's field!!"

"I choose to use this card to revive Ice-Bound Swordsman George from the Graveyard!!"

"Then activate the second trap card - Brainwash Remove!!"

"As long as this card is on the field, control of all monsters on the field will return to their original owner!!"

"Although the tokens summoned by Resurrection Gift appear directly on your field, their original owner is me!!"

"In this way, those two tokens will return to my field!!"

At this point, Goro Shinnosuke already knew that he would never be able to defeat You Qing in this round! !

Because You Qing's last cover card must be Emergency Synchro!!

Goro Shinnosuke understood that no matter how he chose to attack this time, the result would not change much, so he might as well continue the attack and try to find new possibilities! !

The moment three monsters appeared on the battlefield at the same time, the Six Samurai Nizo took a half step back, then suddenly stepped forward and continued to chop! !

But this also inspired Youqing's final cover card, and sure enough, it was an Emergency Synchro!!!
You Qing's tactical move made Goro Shinnosuke sweat profusely. He had originally thought it would be a particularly powerful card derived from the Extreme Ice Style, but he didn't expect that he could create this tactic with just a few simple cards!

Goro Shinnosuke considered himself a traditional duelist, fond of using good cards from the old days, but now it seemed that You Qing was far superior to him in making complex use of ordinary cards!
"Impossible!" Goro Nobunosuke gritted his teeth and shouted, "When the Six Samurai's Broken Monk is used as Synchro Material to Synchro Summon a Six Samurai's Synchro Monster, it will gain an effect: all monsters on the opponent's field will be reduced in level by one! You absolutely cannot Synchro Summon a Level 9 Trident Dragon!!!"

Goro Nobunosuke was halfway through his words when he suddenly froze! !
Because he saw that the resurrected Tuner Monster——Ice Barrier Swordsman George was actually at a level of six stars!!

The levels of the three monsters used as materials all dropped by one, and the final total level was exactly nine! !
Yu Qing actually saw through the power of his own ace?! And summoned a high-level Tuner monster from the very beginning?!

Seeing Goro Shinnosuke's eyes, You Qing knew he no longer needed to explain. He chanted the summoning words, and the proud dragon that towered over the battlefield broke free from its shadow and truly descended into the endless darkness!
"Immortal Ice that Shatters Heaven and Earth!!"

"Sacrifice my soul!!"

"Awakening from the eternal frost!!"

"Freeze all enemies completely!!!" "Lv9!! Ice Barrier Dragon - Trident Dragon!!!"

[Ice Barrier Dragon: Trident Dragon]

Nine Stars

[Water Attribute/Dragon]

[Attack/Defense: 2700/2000]

"The effect of Ice Barrier Dragon, Trident Dragon!!" You Qing announced, "This card can only be activated when Synchro Summoned. Select one card each from your opponent's hand, field, and graveyard and banish it from the Duel!"

Faced with the effects of Ice Barrier Dragon, Trident Dragon, Goro Nobunosuke looked at the Quick-Play Spell Card in his hand, but ultimately held it down, not wanting to activate it rashly...

This Quick-Play Magic Card - Shadow Ninjutsu of the Six Samurai can Special Summon a banished Six Samurai monster by sending one of its own monsters to the Graveyard. The Synchro Monster True Demon Six Samurai·Yuan can also pull a banished Six Samurai monster onto the field when it is sent to the Graveyard.

This was the trump card he had prepared to deal with You Qing's backcourt.

But now, if he activates this card with the effect of Ice Barrier Dragon Trident, it will be very costly!!
Firstly, due to the chain reaction, even if he used Shadow Ninjutsu to send the Six Samurai of the True Demons, Yuan, to the graveyard, Yuan's special ability would be blocked and unable to be activated.

Secondly, the effect of Ice Barrier Dragon: Trident Dragon is resolved after the chain is activated, giving You Qing the advantage of choosing the target later. This situation is completely different from sending the selected monster to the Graveyard to avoid the effect!
“Tsk!!!” Goro Nobunosuke frowned, but he managed to withstand the effects of the Ice Barrier Dragon, Trident Dragon!!
He is gambling!!

Ice Barrier Dragon, Trident Dragon, randomly selects cards to banish from his hand. He currently has a Great General, Purple Flame in his hand. As long as the card banished isn't a Shadow Ninjutsu from the Six Samurai, he might be able to gain some wiggle room with the Continuous Spell Card, Six Samurai Gate!
In his opinion, You Qing, who had no cards in his hand, would definitely prioritize dealing with the monsters on his own field. Even if You Qing used the effect of Trident Dragon to banish the Six Warriors Gate, the situation would only be more favorable to him!!!

"Bang!!!!!!"

The cold dragon breath exploded, and Goro Shinnosuke felt his hand holding the card suddenly stiffen. He was in a daze for a moment, and when he looked carefully again, his heart had sunk to the bottom.

Because the card that Trident Dragon randomly banished was none other than that Quick Attack Magic Card - Shadow Ninjutsu of the Six Samurai!!
For a moment, Goro Shinnosuke's face turned pale. After this move, it would be meaningless for You Qing to banish any cards later!
“Bang!!! Bang!!! Bang!!!”

Then, two more frost dragon breaths exploded one after another, and the fast-play magic card in the graveyard of the True Demon Six Samurai·Yuanwa - Six Samurai Style Double Attack Formation was also wiped out from the duel...

At this moment, only one of the Six Samurai, Nizo, was left alone on Goro Nobunosuke's field! !
Putting aside whether this card could defeat the Trident Dragon, the mere fact that it chose not to attack during the second attack rollback had already destroyed any hope of a reversal...

Looking at the great general Zi Yan in his hand, Goro Nobunosuke sighed and ended the round with a lonely expression.

As for the Six Samurai...

A lone army is doomed to failure.
