For many who play Yu Gi Oh, the first move is almost everything.
Although there are specific decks that prefer to let the opponent go first, in fact, even if letting the opponent go first, some decks may not be able to completely break through, which might turn letting the opponent go first into the root of failure.
Of course, in this world, factors such as the rarity of cards, the completeness of the set, and the power of the cards themselves need to be considered, so Tenjo Hikari can't set up five or six negates, and waits for a surrender like before his transmigration.
However, even so, Tenjo Hikari can still achieve certain things through specific methods and techniques.
For example, refreshing resources and quickly changing hands.
Now, Tenjo Hikari's hand allows him to do things that were not possible before.
"Activate Spell Card, Polymerization! Fuse the two Thunder Dragons in my hand, Fusion Summon——Thunder Dragon Colossus!"
The pitch-black dragon appears on the field again, and it's still in Attack Position!
Thunder Dragon Colossus, LV 8, Dark Attribute, Thunder-Type, ATK 2600.
"Still in Attack Position?" Seeing this scene, Skull Knight couldn't help but shake his head, his bones creaking.
Tenjo Hikari smiled confidently.
Although he has been consistently using Fusion, that doesn't mean Tenjo Hikari won't "counter". When he first came to this world, he prepared two strategies targeting people from different angles of this world.
He didn't draw them last time, but this time is different.
"Next, activate the Spell Card——Shaddoll Fusion!"
"A brand-new fusion?" Skull Knight saw the card and felt its power, couldn't help but laugh, "Is it a Darkness Attribute fusion?"
"This card allows you, when your opponent has a Monster that was Special Summoned from the Extra Deck on the field, to send Fusion Materials from the Deck to the Graveyard to Fusion Summon!
I send Shaddoll Falco from the Deck and Elemental Hero Avian from the Deck to the Graveyard for a Fusion Summon!
Wind El Shaddoll——
El Shaddoll Wendigo!"
El Shaddoll Wendigo, LV 6, Wind Attribute, Psychic-Type, DEF 2800.
"A DEF of 2800, as a wall, is indeed sufficient, but such a level is nowhere near enough to defeat my Netherworld Dragon!"
"Heh, the fusion has only just begun!"
"Activate the effect of Shaddoll Falco sent to the Graveyard. When this card is sent to the Graveyard by a card effect, it can be Special Summoned to the field in face-down Defense Position." Tenjo Hikari snapped his fingers, and a bunch of Puppet Strings bound to the Monster in the Graveyard covered the field.
"Activate Wendigo's effect, once per turn, to make a Monster on the field unable to be destroyed by battle with a Special Summoned Monster, I grant this effect to Thunder Dragon Colossus, and then have it attack Thunder Dragon Dark Soul!
Go, crush the fake!"
Thunder Dragon Colossus gathers thunder, strikes the illusion on the field, and smashes it to pieces.
Skull Knight doesn't move at all, not caring about this scene in the slightest.
"A mere spirit being shattered. It's no big deal. If you can't find a way to deal with Dragon Death, then I'll just devour a soul of your Monster again on my next turn."
"Your current defense means nothing to me!"
"Is that so." Tenjo Hikari chuckled, "Then I'll set one more card, end my turn——
At this moment, activate the effect of Fusion Recycling Plant. At the end of the turn, it can return a Fusion Material from the Graveyard to the hand.
I return a Thunder Dragon from the Graveyard to my hand."
He revealed a card in his hand, lightly shook it, then placed it back into his hand.
Skull Knight observed Tenjo Hikari's actions, momentarily puzzled.
What's so significant about this situation?
A Monster with a DEF of 2800, a Monster with an ATK of 2600, and one covered card and a Monster with trivial DEF amount to nothing much at all; what significance does this hold?
What is causing him to be so confident?
Skull Knight didn't understand, but he felt a sense of excitement.
This was the joy he often felt during his lifetime.
His name is: Rudger Goodwin.
Now, the Sector Security chief of City, Goodwin's elder brother, a man resurrected from death——
No, maybe it can't be said that way.
He actually isn't "Rudger Goodwin", but rather his "shell", a remnant left by Goodwin of his brother.
Rudger Goodwin was a "chosen one", favored by both sides of the world's justice and evil, simultaneously chosen to be an Agent, anticipated by two powerful forces. He chose the path of "Earthbound Immortal" and cut off the arm imbued with the Power of the Red Dragon, handing it over to his brother.
He hoped his brother would gather the Signers to defeat him.
This way, justice would still triumph, the world would continue operating normally. Although not everyone would be happy, at least not everyone would fall under the Evil God's enslavement.
Only, his brother was disappointed in this world.
The thousands-years-long cycle of battles between the Earthbound Immortal and the Red Dragon, the dirty thoughts of humans, and the ridiculous oppression of the lower-class by the upper-class made him lose hope in the Human World.
He didn't want to gather the Signers of the Red Dragon to defeat his brother; he even thought about simply throwing away the Power of the Red Dragon, letting the Other Dimension People take it, so that his plan could proceed smoothly.
In this situation, Goodwin called upon him——the once-legendary Skull Knight.
