Manjome's turn.
"Draw!"
First, it's time to draw a card—
He vaguely felt something was off, but he didn't dare to think in that direction, so he concentrated on his hand cards.
Good, the hand is perfect!
"Quick-Play Spell Card, Ojama Mix-Up!" Manjome inserted a card from his hand into the Duel Disk.
The card displayed an image of Ojama Yellow with a bruised face on the ring, being clobbered by Armed Dragon LV5.
"Select one card from your hand or one that is face-up on the field from the 'Ojama' cards and send it to the Graveyard. I can add one 'Ojama' monster and one 'Armed Dragon' monster with different names from my Deck or Graveyard to my hand.
I send Ojama Magic from my hand to the Graveyard.
I add Ojama Blue and Armed Dragon LV5 to my hand!"
The Deck automatically ejects two cards, and he quickly adds them to his hand.
"The effect of the Ojama Mix-Up isn't over yet! I can also summon the monster added to the hand, so I summon Ojama Blue in Attack Position!"
Ojama Blue, with its long, big head, looked more imposing compared to other Ojama monsters.
Ojama Blue, Level 2, Light Attribute, Beast-Type, Attack Power 0.
"Oh?" Kaibaman watched Ojama Blue enter the field and said with interest, "Is this a Monster Card you found in Ojama Country?"
"How do you know..." Manjome instinctively lowered his voice, asking in fear, but then he shook his head vigorously, shouting, "Ojama Magic's effect! This card can be activated when it's sent from the hand or field to the Graveyard. Add Ojama Yellow, Ojama Green, and Ojama Black from the Deck to the hand!"
"Yeeha!"
"Woohoo!"
"Here we come, big brother~~"
Three oddly shaped spirits flew out from the Deck, floating beside Manjome, cheering excitedly.
But contrary to the trio's expectations, as they appeared, Manjome did not scold them or ask them to be quiet as usual but instead watched his opponent nervously.
Moreover, the trio could see cold sweat drip from Manjome's forehead!
"B-brother?" Ojama Yellow asked nervously.
"It's not over yet!" Manjome suddenly played another card from his hand, "Activate Spell Card, Ojamassimilation!"
This time, the unlucky Ojama Yellow was shown on an operating table, undergoing a miserable transformation.
"Display a Light Attribute, Machine-Type Fusion Monster in the Extra Deck to the opponent and then banish any number of 'Ojama' monsters from your hand, field, or Graveyard to activate it. Select Fusion Materials equal to the number of banished monsters and Special Summon them from the hand, Deck, or Graveyard. Only one monster with the same name can be Special Summoned.
I reveal XYZ-Dragon Cannon from the Extra Deck!
I banish Ojama Yellow, Ojama Green, and Ojama Black from my hand!"
Manjome showed the three Ojama monsters he just added to his hand, then pocketed them and Special Summoned three monsters from the Deck: "Special Summon X-Head Cannon, Y-Dragon Head, Z-Metal Tank!"
X-Head Cannon, Level 4, Light Attribute, Machine-Type, Attack Power 1800.
Y-Dragon Head, Level 4, Light Attribute, Machine-Type, Attack Power 1500. Union Monster.
Z-Metal Tank, Level 4, Light Attribute, Machine-Type, Attack Power 1500. Union Monster.
Three radiant mechanical monsters appeared on the field, looking at the opponent with heads tilted, as if they were chanting.
"It's not over!!!"
Manjome did not stop his actions: "I merge the three Machine-Type monsters on the field!!"
"Come——"
"Fusion of the three monsters!
XYZ-Dragon Cannon!"
The three mechanical monsters assembled from top to bottom, transforming into a giant combining robot.
XYZ-Dragon Cannon, Level 8, Light Attribute, Machine-Type, Attack Power 2800.
Manjome wiped his chin.
Then, he was surprised to find his right hand's back was somewhat damp.
He looked down and saw it was wet with sweat.
This...
He shook his head again, trying not to be so nervous.
"Activate the effect of Ojama Mix-Up in the Graveyard, banish this card, return the three banished 'Ojama' monsters to the Deck and shuffle, then draw 1 card."
He retrieved the Ojama brothers he had just pocketed, inserted them into the Deck, let it shuffle automatically, and then drew one card.
He glanced down at it.
"Using Ojama Blue on the field as a Sacrifice, Tribute Summon—"
"Armed Dragon LV5!"
The blue Ojama monster turned into bubbles, replaced by a tall, mighty dragon.
The dragon stood on the field, pounding its fists, then looked up and roared towards the sky as if responding to its master's fighting spirit.
Armed Dragon LV5, Level 5, Wind Attribute, Dragon-Type, Attack Power 2400.
Phew—
Reaching this extent should be about right?
Manjome finally exhaled a bit of relief.
Armed Dragon LV5 and XYZ-Dragon Cannon, both monsters have considerable attack power, and both possess significant abilities to destroy the opponent's cards. Regardless of which monster remains until the next turn, it can address or resolve the enemy's offensive.
Furthermore, after summoning so many monsters sequentially, his hand cards were barely consumed.
"I set one card face-down and end my turn!"
This way, it should be able to...
"Summoning two High-Level Monsters at once and also ensuring the number of hand cards, with Ojama Assimilation in the Graveyard able to recycle cards for another draw, is quite impressive for the first turn. Indeed, it deserves to be called 'excellent.'
Manjome couldn't help but smile a little upon hearing this and looked up.
"But!"
Manjome felt as if he had been struck by thunder, instinctively recoiling half a step.
But?
"But——your heart, there's a huge problem!"
Heart???
"Take a good look at how a truly 'excellent' duelist duels!" Kaibaman shouted to the heavens, and with his shout, the entire hot spring seemingly whipped up a storm.
"What?" Manjome braced himself with both hands in front, yet his body was still being pushed back by this strange storm.
He was actually forced to retreat by one person's momentum storm!
"My turn, draw!"
Kaibaman glanced at the cards in his hand: "Hmph, Normal Summon, Z-Infinite Track!"
"What!???"
The shape of the Metal Tank was a tread on both sides, with a mono-eyed controller in the center.
And the Infinite Track summoned by Kaibaman was one whole size larger than the Metal Tank. Not only that, it was also equipped with massive metal pincers on both tracks, and the upper layer of the track had opened, revealing hidden cannons!
Z-Infinite Track, Level 4, Light Attribute, Machine-Type, Attack Power 1500. Union Monster.
"Z...?" Manjome widened his eyes and mouth gaping.
"Heh..." Kaibaman chuckled softly.
