Chapter 4 The Rampage of Hell
Chapter 4 The Rampage of Hell
"You bastard!"
The hunter, Gurus, was furious: "Are you underestimating me?"
That's a joke. I have a rare monster with 1700 attack power and 4000 life points on the field. You think you can beat me with six cards?
LOL, impossible, absolutely impossible. Even if Yugi Muto, the champion of Duel Kingdom, stood in front of him, he couldn't do it.
Jonouchi looked at Kagura Kiryu in shock: "He actually declared KO in the first round. Is this guy really that strong, or...?"
Kagura Kiryu's lips curled up: "Then keep your eyes wide open and watch."
You're a minotaur, huh? I'm a pure love warrior!
"My turn, draw a card!"
He placed his fingers on top of the deck and pulled out the top card.
Hmm, this hand should be able to complete this combination.
He looked at the empty backcourt opposite him. In this era, duels where you take turns hitting the ball seemed to be quite common.
But if he doesn't even cover a single backcourt point, then he can do whatever he wants without any worries.
There aren't even hand traps in this era, and Dark Star is already shining brightly above rare card hunters.
"First, I'll summon this card! [The Captain Who Charges into Battle]!"
Kiryu Kagura slapped a card from his hand onto the Duel Disk's slot: "Attack Position Summon!"
A 3D image slowly appeared on Kagura Kiryu's field, and the captain, charging into battle, jumped onto the duel disk.
He had messy blond hair, wore metal armor, had a serious expression, a determined look, and a noticeable scar on his left eye.
The captain gripped two longswords of varying thicknesses in both hands, and with a flick of his red cloak, he looked every bit the battle-hardened warrior.
[The Captain Who Charges into Battle, Level 4, Warrior Type, Earth Attribute, Attack Power 1200, Effect Monster]
"Next, I activate the effect of [Charging Captain]!"
Kiryu Kagura draws another card from her hand, flips it over, and reveals it to her opponent: "This effect can only be activated when the Captain successfully summons a monster. Special Summon one Level 4 or lower monster from your hand!"
"I'm summoning this card! Magical Beast Cerberus!"
A lion-like monster with blue-purple fur appeared on the dueling field, its claws and fangs gleaming with a ferocious light, ready to devour its prey.
【Cerberus, Level 4, Light Attribute, Spellcaster Type, ATK 1400, Effect Monster】
"Two monsters were summoned in an instant!"
Jōnei was shocked: "So strong!"
Gurus scoffed, "But their attack power is far inferior to my Minotaur!"
"Don't rush."
Kiryu Kagura smiled and drew a card: "At the moment of the Special Summoning of [Magical Beast Cerberus], I will activate this card."
He inserted the card into the Spell & Trap Zone of the Duel Disk: "Quick-Play Spell! [Hellish Rampage Summon]!"
Gurus exclaimed in surprise, "Activating a magic card at this crucial moment?"
"That's right!" Kagura Kiryu patiently explained, "[Hellish Rampage Summon] can only be activated if there is a face-up monster on the opponent's field and you have only one monster with 1500 or less ATK that you special summon."
"I can Special Summon as many monsters of the same name as those Special Summoned from my hand, Deck, and Graveyard as possible in Attack Position."
Kagura Kiryu drew a deck from the Duel Disk and began searching through it.
Although the Duel Disk existed in this era, it lacked automatic shuffling and retrieval functions, requiring players to manually flip cards.
Fortunately, he quickly found the cards he wanted.
"I Special Summon the other two Spellbeasts, Cerberus, from my Deck!"
[Magical Beast Cerberus, Attack Power 1400] x2
"However, as a side effect of activating the Rampage Summon of Hell, the opponent can also choose one face-up monster and Special Summon as many as possible from their hand, Deck, and Graveyard."
Kagura Kiryu smiled and said, "You only have [Minotaur] on your field. How about that? Do you have two other [Minotaur] cards in your deck?"
(According to Yu-Gi-Oh! rules, a deck can contain a maximum of three copies of the same card.)
"Hmph!" The Hunter Gurus chuckled smugly. "Don't underestimate the Gurus Group! I Special Summon two [Minotaur]s from my deck! In Attack Position, of course!"
[Minotaur, Attack Power 1700] x2
"Ugh, I did manage to summon four monsters in one go, but my opponent has three monsters with 1700 ATK on their field! Isn't that even worse?"
Jonouchi clutched his head in despair, while Gurus's laughter grew even more smug: "That's right, brat, it seems you're gambling on whether there are other Minotaur in my deck."
"But unfortunately, you bet wrong! Thank you for sending me the other two monsters, hahahahaha!"
Kagura Kiryu watched his performance quietly: "Who said I was going to bet on this?"
"You guys have tons of Gluthus clone cards, do you think I wouldn't know?"
He pointed to the Cerberus he had summoned first: "Because I activated a spell card, the effect of [Magical Beast Cerberus] was triggered."
Inside the castle, Gurus: "A monster with special effects!?"
"That's right, every time either player activates a spell card, [Magical Beast Cerberus] places a spell counter! Spell Drain!"
On the spot, Kiryu Kagura gave [Magical Beast Cerberus] a new move name: "[Magical Beast Cerberus]'s second effect: This card gains 500 ATK for each Spell Counter it has!"
"It now has a marker, therefore its attack power is..."
【Magical Beast Cerberus, Attack Power 1400 → Attack Power 1900】
"Attack power 1900!?"
Gurus exclaimed in shock: "He's surpassed my [Minotaur]!"
"It's not over yet!"
Kiryu Kagura inserts another card into the Duel Disk: "Continuous Spell, Allied Forces Activate!"
"Based on this card's effect, the ATK of any Warrior monster you control increases by 200 for each Warrior and Spellcaster monster you control!"
"[The Captain Who Charges into Battle] is a Warrior-type monster, and [Magical Beast Cerberus] is a Mage-type monster."
"Therefore, the captain who leads the charge will increase the attack power of a total of 4 monsters!"
[The captain who charged into battle, attack power 1200 → attack power 2000]
"Furthermore, because I activated a spell card once again, all three [Magical Beast Cerberus] will have a Spell Counter placed on them and their ATK will increase by 500!"
【Magical Beast Cerberus, Attack Power 1900 → Attack Power 2400】
[Magical Beast Cerberus, Attack Power 1400 → Attack Power 1900] x2
"Attack power...2400!?"
Gurus was so frightened that his face froze.
Jonouchi's pupils contracted in shock:
"In the first round, I summoned a monster with attack power comparable to my Red-Eyes Black Dragon, as well as a high-level monster with 2000 attack power and two monsters with 1900 attack power."
He clenched his fist, feeling his duelist spirit surging, and an overwhelming excitement welled up inside him: "So strong, so incredibly strong! Besides games, there are actually duelists this powerful?"
At that moment, Kagura Kiryu waved his hand and shouted, "Enter attack phase!"
