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

"You can't hide your murderous intent anymore, Luo Ye." Zhang Ji watched the giant Savat Spinosaurus spread its spines and charged at him like a giant hedgehog, but he remained calm and said:

"Since I know the effects of your monster, why wouldn't I be on guard against it? The monster effect of [Tava Scimitar Demon - Master Swordsmanship] can only be used once per turn, and it cannot be destroyed by your opponent's effects."

"Possessing immortality for once per round?" Luo Ye's smile gradually froze.

"Hahahaha, Luo Ye, not only do you understand me, I know you inside and out as well." Zhang Ji said confidently, "Your actions for this round end here, right? Whether in combat or using effects, your two monsters can't do anything to my [Tawa Scimitar Demon - Master Swordsmanship]."

"Brother Ji, if I stop now, wouldn't that mean I'm not as good as you? How is that possible!" Luo Ye took out a card from the graveyard: "Next, I will activate the effect of the monster in the graveyard, [Hybrid Dinosaur of Fantasy Creation],

You can banish any number of Dinosaur-Type monsters, including this card, from your Graveyard, and Special Summon 1 Dinosaur-Type monster from your Deck with the same Level as the banished monsters. Monsters Special Summoned by this effect are destroyed during the End Phase.

"[Hybrid Dinosaur of Fantasy Creation]?" Zhang Ji hesitated for a moment. "Is this the card you discarded to activate [Double Hook]?"

"That's right!" Luo Ye took out three more cards from the graveyard. "According to the effect of [Illusionary Hybrid Dinosaur], I banish this card and the four monsters in the graveyard, [Giant Spinosaurus], [Dino Wrestler - Russian Iguanodon], and [Dino Wrestler - Theracoelurosaur], and Special Summon monsters from the deck—

Come out! [Dinosaur Wrestler·System Stegosaurus] (Earth/★4/Dinosaur/Effect/1900/0)"

"Another dinosaur with 1900 attack power? Humph! How much of a difference can this card make to the battle situation?"

"If [Dino Wrestler - Systema Stegosaurus] is Special Summoned successfully, its effect activates! I can add 1 [Dino Wrestler] monster from my deck to my hand.

I choose to add 1 monster from my deck, [Dinosaur Wrestler Skulima Mamenchisaurus], to my hand.

Also, when the monster "Giant Spinosaurus" in the Graveyard is banished, this effect is activated! You can Special Summon this card. Furthermore, this card Special Summoned by this effect gains 200 ATK equal to the number of your Dinosaur-Type monsters banished.

Come out! [Giant Spinosaurus] (Earth/★4/Dinosaur/Effect/2000/1200)

At this time, there are a total of 3 Dinosaur monsters that I excluded, so the attack power of [Giant Spinosaurus] increases by 600 to 2600.

I haven't performed a Normal Summon this turn. When I have a "Dino Wrestler" monster on my side of the field, I can summon the monster in my hand, [Dino Wrestler - Mamenchisaurus Sculima] without releasing it.

Come out! [Dinosaur Wrestler·Skulima Mamenchisaurus] (Earth/★4/Dinosaur/Effect/2200/0)"

"Five dinosaurs..." Zhang Ji couldn't help but sigh as he looked at the huge dinosaurs lined up in a row on the Luoye field. If it were his old self, he would have been scared to death, but now he has seen a little bit of the world, so he is not so surprised.

Although the dinosaurs are quite powerful, the one with the highest combat power among them is still the giant Savat Spinosaurus with an attack power of 3000, which still cannot break through the [Tava Scimitar Demon - Master Sword Skill].

Luo Ye said excitedly: "Brother Ji, now I am only one step away from winning the duel."

"The last step?" Zhang Ji frowned slightly. "Xiao Hei currently has multiple Level 4 monsters on the field. If there's still one step left, it must be—"

"I stacked Soul Eater Oviraptor and Dino Wrestler System Stegosaurus, both Level 4 monsters on the field, creating a stacking network with the two monsters, and Xyz Summoned them!

Evolving dinosaur, let everyone hear your roar. Rank 4, [Magic Cannon_Red Lotus Dinosaur] (Flame/☆4/Dinosaur/Extreme/Effect/2200/2000)

"Using monsters with 1900 and 1800 ATK to Xyz Summon a monster with 2200 ATK? On paper, your power actually decreases by 1500."

"Brother Ji, you will soon find out that the winner of this duel is me." Luo Ye said confidently:

"Entering my battle phase, I attack [Doppler Derivative] (ATK1900) with [Dinosaur Wrestler Sculima Mamenchisaurus] (ATK2200)."

A long-necked dinosaur with a bulging belly and holding a pair of bone clubs leaped up, like a meteorite falling from the sky. The illusion created by the [Afterimage of the Undead] was smashed to pieces in an instant.

"Ugh—" (Zhang Ji's health changed from 4000 to 3850)

"Huh? The damage isn't right?" Luo Ye immediately noticed something was wrong: "You should have taken 300 damage."

"Hearing you were going to beat me this turn scared me, so I activated this card." Zhang Ji waved his hand and flipped over his only face-up card: "Normal Trap Card, [Damage Reduction]. This turn, all damage I take is halved."

"Is it this card?" Luo Ye's expression changed slightly: "Humph, Brother Ji, even if you reduce all the damage you receive by half, I'm afraid you won't be able to maintain your health. At this moment, the effect of [Demon Cannon_Red Lotus Dinosaur] is activated!

When your Dinosaur-Type monster destroys an opponent's monster by battle and sends it to the Graveyard, you can detach 1 Xyz Material from this card, inflict 1000 damage to your opponent. Afterwards, you can also increase this card's ATK by 1000.

"Hmm——" (Zhang Ji's health 3850 → 3350)

([Magic Cannon_Red Lotus Dinosaur] ATK 2200 → 3200)

"And then, little blackie," Zhang Ji chuckled. "With these remaining big fish and small shrimps, can you break through the [Tawa Scimitar Demon - Master Sword Art] equipped with [Afterimage of the Undead]? You can only declare the round over, right?"

"The battle phase continues!" Luo Ye's eyes became more determined. "I will use [Demon Cannon - Red Lotus Dinosaur] (ATK 3200) to attack [Tawa Scimitar Demon - Master Sword Art] (ATK 2400)."

"You're so proud of yourself after only increasing your attack power by 1000?" Zhang Ji asked in confusion. "Did you forget to equip the magic card, [Afterimage of the Dead]? This card can reduce the attack power of monsters fighting against Tava Scimitar Demon by the same amount, which is 2400.

Unless you attack with a monster with an attack power more than twice that of the Tava Scimitar Demon, otherwise, you will be courting your own destruction!"

Just as Zhang Ji said, the Red Lotus Dinosaur that was charging forward bravely was entangled by a phantom, and its attack power was greatly reduced to only 800. The Tawa Scimitar Demon also seized the opportunity, moved like a rabbit, and swung his two swords to separate the head and body of the Red Lotus Dinosaur.

"Ah——" (Luo Ye's health changed from 2800 to 1200)

"Brother Ji, this is exactly what I wanted!" After enduring the backlash of battle damage, Luo Ye smiled excitedly:

"When the Xyz Summoned [Magic Cannon_Crimson Dinosaur] is destroyed, activate its effect! You can select 1 card on the field, destroy it, and inflict 1000 damage to your opponent."

"What did you say!?"

"Brother Ji, your [Tawa Scimitar Demon - Master Sword Art] only gained immortality once, and luckily escaped the destruction caused by the giant Savat Spinosaurus. This time, you can't escape it, right? I choose to destroy [Tawa Scimitar Demon - Master Sword Art]."

"No! Uh--" (Zhang Ji's health changed from 3350 to 2850)

After the Tawa Scimitar Demon swung its sword to kill the Red Lotus Dinosaur, the big mouth on its chest suddenly opened, revealing the gun barrel inside its body. A dark blue electric light shot out and instantly penetrated the body of the Tawa Scimitar Demon. The two monsters died together!

"I didn't expect you to use the die-in-glory tactic." Zhang Ji looked calmly at his empty field. There were neither any monsters nor any covering magic or trap cards.

"Brother Ji, it's over! I'm going to use the [Dino Wrestler: Giant Savat Spinosaurus] (ATK 3000) and [Giant King Spinosaurus] (ATK 2600) that haven't attacked yet to attack you directly!"

"Cough—ah—" (Zhang Ji's health: 2850 → 1350 → 50)
