Traveling in reverse through the Yu-Gi-Oh! world with the MD system

Since this person wasn't planning to take advantage of him, he wouldn't offer any further advice, but...

"Tuner monsters? It really is a Synchro deck."

Just as Yuto was muttering to himself, Yugo's loud voice rang out:

"I used a level 3 [Speedy Robot Three-Eyed Dice] to adjust the star rating of a level 3 [Speedy Robot Bey Gyro Assembly]!"

O demonic sword with the power of a cross! With its might, cleave all enemies! Synchro Summon! Appear, Level 6, [High-Speed ​​Dash Monster Demon Sword Orb]!

Within the three rings of light formed by the [Speedy Robot Three-Eyed Dice], the [Speedy Robot Bey Top Assemble] gradually faded in color, transforming into a golden outline, and finally into three green orbs of light, guiding blue and white light through the rings.

As the blue-white light dissipated, a monster resembling a giant, horizontally placed kendama, its entire body a deep blue-purple, appeared before Yugo. However, upon closer inspection, one could still discern the monster's robotic body and head.

"Activate the effect of [High Speed ​​Mech Spell Jewel]! Once per turn, banish 1 [High Speed ​​Mech] monster from your Graveyard and inflict 500 damage to your opponent!"

As Yugo tapped the Duel Disk repeatedly, removing the [Gyrobot Gyro Combination] from the graveyard, a blue-white beam of light shot from the tip of the [Gyrobot Makendama] and crashed into Yugo.

Although Yudou managed to dodge the direct impact of the beam of light, the 500 points of LP damage still hit him squarely.

"I set a card and the turn ends."

Seeing Yugo finish his turn, Yuto placed his finger on the deck and forcefully pulled out a card:

"My turn, draw a card!"

Looking at the cards in his hand, Yuto then inserted one of them into the Duel Disk.

"Then I'll place a card face down first, and then I'll activate this trap card!"

"What!?"

Seeing that Yuto had actually activated the card he had set down this turn, Yugo's face instantly showed a look of astonishment.

If Yuya Sakaki could see the expression on Yugo's face right now, he would definitely pat Yugo on the shoulder with great satisfaction, since this way he wouldn't be the only one who was scared by this card during the duel.

"Trap Card [Phantom Knights Shadow Cloth Armor] activated! This card can be activated during the turn it is Set if there are no Trap Cards in your Graveyard!"

After this card is activated, it can be Special Summoned as a Normal Monster in Defense Position in the Monster Zone!

As a card wreathed in ghostly blue flames appeared on his field, Yuto immediately drew another card from his hand and placed it on his Duel Disk:

"Then, I activate the effect of [Phantom Knights Stained Greaves] from my hand! If you Special Summon a [Phantom Knights] monster to your field, Special Summon this card from your hand and increase its Level by one!"

In the darkness, a ghost, seemingly engulfed in eerie blue flames, stood on the arena, clad in heavy knight's armor and wielding two rusty, weathered swords.

Furthermore, after its level increased by one star, this card, like [Phantom Knights Dark Mask] which was just Special Summoned to the Yudou Arena as a monster, is now a Level 4 monster.

"Could it be that monster!?"

Having seen through Yuto's intentions, even Yugo became somewhat excited. For a moment, he began to wonder if Yuto had summoned the monster he had been hoping for.

If so, he could continue the unfinished duel from last time. But the problem is, the one on the field now is not his ace, [Phantom Wing Synchro Dragon].

Seriously, why summon the ace so early!

For a moment, Yugo felt a surge of resentment.

"Now, I have two Level 4 monsters! I'll stack the [Phantom Knights Stained Greaves] and [Phantom Knights Dark Cloth Armor] on the field!"

As You Dou clasped his hands together, the black hole, shimmering with golden light, finally erupted beneath the twilight glow.

"From the deepest darkness, rebellious fangs that defy the power of dullness! Now, descend upon the world! Xyz Summon! Appear, Rank 4, [Dark Rebellious Xyz Dragon]!"

With its tail swishing and its two spikes gleaming, the dragon's blades spread out along with its wings, and even sharp spikes rose from beneath its jaws. In the black glow, the dark purple dragon let out a roar at its opponent.

"It really is this one! I've been waiting for you for so long, [Dark Rebellion Xyz Dragon]!"

Looking at the [Dark Rebellion Xyz Dragon] roaring at him, Yugo's eyes showed a hint of eagerness. Ever since their last confrontation, he had wanted to see his [Phantom Wing Synchro Dragon] clash head-on with it.

Unfortunately, the one on his field right now is not [Phantom Wing Synchro Dragon].

Noticing that Yugo's finger had already irresistibly touched the deck, Yuto immediately spoke up to remind him:

"It's not over yet! Don't forget, I haven't even Normal Summoned yet! I'm Normal Summoning [Phantom Knights Pierced Scales] from my hand!"

Another card was drawn, and a ghostly monster, only its upper body visible, clad in tattered scales and a knight's helmet, appeared on the field.

"[Phantom Knights Pierced Scales] effect activated once per turn: discard 1 card from your hand and send 1 [Phantom Knights] monster other than Pierced Scales or 1 [Phantom] Spell/Trap Card from your Deck to the Graveyard!"

I discard [Phantom Mist Sword] from my hand and send [Silent Boots of the Phantom Knights] from my deck to the graveyard!

Yuuto draws a card from between his left fingers and sends it to the Duel Disk. Yuuto activates his effect again, but this time, the effect comes from the Graveyard:

"I activate the effect of [Phantom Mist Sword] in my Graveyard! Banish this card from my Graveyard, and Special Summon 1 [Phantom Knights] monster from your Graveyard!"

Come forth! [Phantom Knights Silent Boots]!

Another burst of black light appeared, and this time the monster that appeared was no longer a ghost wearing armor.

Instead, it was a ghost dressed in coarse cloth, but its wrists were firmly handcuffed with a chain.

At this moment, following the two Level 4 monsters, Yuto now has two more Level 3 monsters on his field.

"So, it's going to be another Xyz Summon?"

Amidst Yugo's expectant voices, the announcement of Yuto's summoning slowly rang out once more:

I stacked the level 3 [Phantom Knights Pierced Scale Armor] with the [Phantom Knights Silent Boots].

O knights' souls fallen on the battlefield! Resurrect here as light cleaving through the darkness! Xyz Summon! Appear, Rank 3, [Phantom Knights Shattered Sword]!

Chapter 109: The same face again.

Amidst the announcement of the battle, a headless knight, whose lower body seemed to be integrated with the skeletal horse clad in armor beneath him, stepped out of the massive black hole.

With a flick of his wrist, the greatsword, seemingly severed from a door panel, blazed fiercely, while eerie blue flames emanated from the gaps in the headless knight's armor.

"Now, I activate the effect of [Phantom Knights Shattered Sword]! Once per turn, remove 1 Xyz Material from this card and destroy 1 card on your field and 1 card on your opponent's field!"

As Yudou's voice rang out, a dark purple orb of light, symbolizing an overabundance of materials, instantly shone brightly surrounding the [Phantom Knights Broken Sword].

"What I want to destroy is [Phantom Knights Shattered Sword] and that card you set on your field!"

Yuto's choice stunned Yugo for a moment. He didn't expect that someone would use their own monster as a price to destroy a mere face-down card.

But in the blink of an eye, [Phantom Knights Broken Sword] was engulfed in eerie blue flames and charged toward the card he had covered.

In a burst of eerie blue flames, the [Phantom Knights Broken Sword] and the card that had been placed face down were both blasted into fragments.

The gusts of wind from the explosion caused Yugo to lose his footing and be blown backward, landing on the ground. Even his helmet fell to the ground.

"Wow ah ah!"

Rubbing his backside, Yugo stood up and saw his helmet lying on the ground. He let out a wail and lunged at it.

"Oh no, oh no, will it break? It would be a real problem if the lens broke."

After checking several times and finding that his helmet was fine, Yugo breathed a sigh of relief, hung the helmet on his D-Wheel, and turned to look at Yuto:

"Let's continue... Hey, what's with those expressions?!"

However, it's no wonder Yugo is so angry. After all, the two of them, who were just serious a moment ago, both showed expressions of astonishment when they saw Yugo's face.

"What's wrong? Is my face weird? Don't you have someone over there who looks exactly like me?!"

Ignoring Yugo's commotion, Yuto turned away and whispered to Hayabusa:

"What should we do, Hayabusa? This guy looks exactly like me and Yuya, and he even uses Synchro Summoning. He must be the Synchro Dimension I'm talking about, right?"

"Hmm, it seems so."

"Wouldn't that be terrible? Mr. Soreva warned us that we, as beings of the same type, must never duel each other!"

For a moment, even a hint of panic appeared in You Dou's voice.

Unfortunately, his current situation is rather awkward.

If he goes all out, whether using the broken sword's destroyed last words effect or activating the Silent Boots effect, he can finish off the opponent's Yugo in this turn.

But Soreva had warned them not to do that.

If he were to play it safe, Yuto worried that he might not be able to directly block Yugo's attacks in the duel.

"How about I call Mr. Soreva first? You'll have to stall this guy for a bit, Yudou."

Seeing Hayabusa take out his phone, Yuto nodded. For now, this was the only thing he could do.

"Then, I activate the effect of [Silent Boots of the Phantom Knights] in my graveyard. Banish this card from the graveyard and add one [Phantom] Spell/Trap Card from my Deck to my hand!"

I chose the second one, [Phantom Mist Sword].

Catching the card that popped out of the Duel Disk, Yuto continued.

"Next is the effect of [Phantom Knights Pierced Scales] in the Graveyard! If this card is in the Graveyard, and there is a [Phantom Knights] monster other than this card in the Graveyard, or if a [Phantom] Spell/Trap Card is banished, this card can be Special Summoned from the Graveyard!"

The Special Summoned [Phantom Knights Pierced Scales] was placed face down and summoned to its field in Defense Position. Then, Yuuto flicked [Dark Rebel Xyz Dragon] with his backhand and activated its effect.

"Then, I activate the effect of [Dark Rebel Xyz Dragon]! Remove two Xyz Materials, reduce the ATK of one face-up monster your opponent controls to half, and increase the ATK of [Dark Rebel Xyz Dragon] by that amount!"

Seize the attack power of the [High-Speed ​​Robot Demon Sword Jewel]! Rebellion Unleashed!

As Yudou's voice rang out, [Dark Rebel Xyz Dragon] immediately raised its head and roared. Two purplish-black Xyz Materials flashed with light in the roar, one rushing towards [High Speed ​​Monster Makendama], and the other entering the body of [Dark Rebel Xyz Dragon].

In an instant, both monsters emitted a purplish-black light. However, the attack power of [High Speed ​​Golem Demon Sworddama] dropped from 2200 to 1100, while the attack power of [Dark Rebellion Xyz Dragon] soared from 2500 to 3600.

"Attack! [Dark Rebellion Xyz Dragon], attacking [High Speed ​​Monster Makendama]! Rebellious Lightning Disobedience!"

Propelled by the crimson lightning emanating from its wings, [Dark Rebellion Xyz Dragon] raised its ramming horn, which was already glowing with a bright white light, and slammed violently into the body of [High Speed ​​Golem Demon Blade].

As the white light pierced through the body of [High Speed ​​Monster Demon Jaden], [High Speed ​​Monster Demon Jaden] instantly dissipated into specks of light in a violent explosion, and Yugo's LP dropped to 1500 points.

Finally, I face down two cards, and the round ends.

On the surface, Yuto's actions were quite impressive, at least Yugo didn't notice anything unusual.

But Yuto himself was already covered in cold sweat, and at the same time, he was constantly praying:

"Hurry up, or I'm really in big trouble."

........................

Meanwhile, Soreva, who was with Yuya and the others, heard his phone ring. He immediately pulled it out of his pocket, but before he could ask who was on the other end, a voice came from the other end:

"Mr. Sorewa, something terrible has happened! We've encountered another person who looks exactly like Yuto!"

"What!?"
