Judai quietly watched his opponent.
A glimmer of gold flashed briefly in his eyes, but it quickly faded.
Actually.
He was no longer angry.
Because he knew the other person wasn't someone worth getting angry at.
He just reminisced more about the recent events.
Does everyone have their place in life?
If you really must say that, then he was born a "villain"!
Because from childhood to now, countless kids have been mysteriously injured or even fell into comas because of him; he's someone who brings pain!
He is a born "calamity".
But—
Walking up to now, he has freed himself from that pain, gained many friends, and these friends, despite reaching the Other Dimension, support each other, even willing to be hurt to protect him…
Yes.
He wasn't angry; he just recalled again how Mitsuzawa was hurt because of him.
The voice at that time was certainly not a hallucination.
He wasn't a born hero, but perhaps, he had a natural ability to attract "evil", which to others, made him a "born villain".
Now it seems, perhaps the "evil" he once abandoned to the Other Dimension wants to find him again and continue to torment his friends.
Just like what the guy in front of him said, he cannot bring heroism or justice. Over these days, watching the people of the Satellite Area being tormented by the police from the Upper Area, he wanted to stop them, yet even if he defeated one police officer, that officer would only respectfully admit his mistake, then possibly retaliate more maliciously against others behind his back—
Was he truly engaged in a futile effort?
He thought back over the past two days when, initially bored, he randomly picked duels for fun. Tenjo Hikari at that time was tinkering with something with Yusei and others, and Tenjo Hikari would also share things he got from the Kaiba Company with friends from the Satellite Area or even passersby.
Whether it was food or other items.
Hikari had his own understanding and thoughts, he seemed quite trusting of Yusei, agreeing with many of Yusei's words and telling him that perhaps knowing Yusei was their greatest fortune on this journey to the Other Dimension.
At that time, he was just hot-blooded and went to help, but—that joy and passion were undeniable.
Heroes are definitely not fake!
"I'm not using heroes just because they're cool!"
Even if he can't help the people of this world, can't change their current situation, as long as through dueling, more people gain joy or even hope, that's enough!
Judai suddenly smiled brightly, "You say… a place?"
"You're a police officer, right, Mr. Reo!"
"Of course, isn't that obvious at a glance? Can't you even see that?"
"Haha, going against the police, doing things the police can't do, that's the persistence of a [Vigilante]!" A smile reappeared on his face, "Sorry, Mr. Reo, I naturally like going against the grain!"
Reo's brow furrowed tightly.
"Hikari, let me use your favorite line today—
The final turn!!"
Beside him, the MC heard Judai's declaration, exclaiming into the microphone: "What! What did I hear, ladies and gentlemen, did the Duelist from the Other Dimension, Judai, just declare victory at this moment? In this fourth turn!? Clearly, the advantage is with Duelist Reo!
The final turn? Is that even possible!"
"Stop talking nonsense!" Reo simply didn't believe it, "How could you bypass my field and my Set Cards to achieve this victory!?"
"Haha, well then, everyone watching, please keep your eyes on this—my turn, draw a card!"
Judai drew a card from his Deck, glanced at it, and slapped it onto the field: "Normal Summon, Elemental Hero Stratos!"
Elemental Hero Stratos, LV 4, Wind Attribute, Warrior-Type, ATK 1800.
The Hero of the gale brightly appeared, causing Tenjo Hikari to momentarily startle.
You didn't have this card earlier, did you?
If you did, Tenjo Hikari would have long found a way to exchange some powerful fusions with Judai, there's no reason not to change it.
Printing cards secretly without telling your brother!
And—you just printed it now!
"When this card is Summoned·Special Summoned, you can activate its Monster Effect. You can add a [Hero] Monster Card from your Deck to your hand, or destroy Spell and Trap Cards on the field equal to the number of other [Hero]s you have on your field!"
He glanced at his opponent and pointed at the set card across from him: "I destroy your set card on the field!"
The set card rose, revealing a Sakuretsu Armor. It seemed he intended to destroy Judai's powerful monster earlier, but since Sparkman was destroyed, it was meaningless, so he didn't activate it.
"Damn it, even so, on my field..." Reo was still speaking.
"Next, activate the Spell Card, Double Fusion!" Judai revealed a Spell Card with two fusion circles on the card image, "Paying 500 Life Points, this turn, I can use the effect of fusion twice!"
Hero Envoy, Yuki Judai LP: 2800→2300.
Tenjo Hikari saw this card and couldn't help but touch his chin, pondering.
Honestly, this card is actually quite weak because its effect is just to perform fusion twice.
But—compared to its real card version, this card is explosively strong. After all, the real card version of Double Fusion doesn't allow you to choose when to fuse; wanting to fuse twice must be done at once.
"I will fuse the Bubbleman on the field with the Burst Lady in my hand, Fusion Summon—Elemental Hero Absolute Zero!"
He waved his hand to perform the fusion, and a hero with a cloak, pure white, jumped out onto the field.
Elemental Hero Absolute Zero, LV 8, Water Attribute, Warrior-Type, Attack Power 2500.
"With an Attack Power of only 2500, it's no match for Goyo Guardian—"
Judai smiled lightly and then turned around, facing all the cameras focused on him. He tried, somewhat clumsily, to pose a couple of times, then turned back and said: "Heroes can't flee from the battlefield. Even in the most dangerous situations, heroes collaborate and achieve victory!
And in such desperate times, heroes can unleash even greater power!"
"Eh, eh?" The MC was a bit dumbfounded.
What's going on? Are you stealing my job?
But strangely enough, it does look pretty cool!
"Fuse Absolute Zero on the field with the Winged Man in my hand!"
"What!?" The MC hurriedly followed with commentary, "To actually use the ace monster that was fused with great effort as Fusion Material immediately, just what is Judai aiming for?"
"The Fusion Conditions are an Elemental Hero and a Wind Attribute monster!"
"Come, my beloved hero, LV 8, Elemental Hero Great Tornado!"
Elemental Hero Great Tornado, LV 8, Wind Attribute, Warrior-Type, Attack Power 2800.
The Winged Man donned layer upon layer of armor, tossing his arms, causing the cloak to dance with the gale, looking slightly askance and coldly at his opponent.
Judai could not mind, even completely losing interest in Reo, but for his 'sidekick,' if he didn't give that brat a good whipping later, it wouldn't be him.
After returning from the Warrior Domain to Judai's side, he decided firmly to toughen up, no matter who dared to upset Judai, he would make them pay.
"The Attack Power matches Goyo Guardian, but how do you plan to win?"
"Sorry, the duel is already over."
"!?"
"When Absolute Zero leaves the field, it can activate and destroy all monsters on the opponent's field! Vanish, rogue policeman, return, my hero!"
The cold wind howled, ice and snow descended, and the mighty Warrior instantly turned into an ice statue, which after a sudden gale, turned to dust.
With that, Reo's field instantly became empty!
For some reason, he felt a chill in his body, as if a layer of frost covered him.
"What an incredible effect!!!!" The weather suddenly turned cold, the MC shivered to the point of stammering, but continued to comment enthusiastically, "In just an instant, all the monsters on player Reo's field were annihilated, even the hero he seized was turned into a dazzling ice sculpture, left as a symbol of heroism on the field!"
"What will player Reo do, at this moment, it can truly be called a desperate situation!! Is there any way? Can he come up with a countermeasure!!"
"This—how is this possible—despite being just a duelist with a win and a loss against someone from the Satellite Area, I'm a genius officer from the Security Bureau, how could I possibly—" Reo was completely unable to accept this result.
But he had no cards in his hand that could be of use in such a situation, so he only had one outcome!
"Battle, Stratos, direct attack—"
Security Officer, Reo LP: 4000→2200.
"Then, Great Tornado's direct attack!"
Judai wanted to shout out Great Tornado's cool move, but Great Tornado was already speeding directly in front of Reo, kicking him, sending him flying dozens of meters until he hit the railing, only then did he cry out in pain and fell back from the recoil.
It hurts!
Judai looked at this scene somewhat puzzled, but he soon laughed it off, waving two fingers of his right hand lightly, pointing slightly at his opponent.
"I won, it was quite an entertaining duel!"
Even though he didn't "go all out," but...
Upon hearing this, Reo, who was already puzzled and doubting himself, directly fainted from the unbelievable pain and bone-chilling cold.
