Chazz murmured, "Allow..."
"Now, let me show you, brother. Even lower levels have potential!
Activate the card on the field, Continuous Magic 'Trap Sealing Talisman'!"
As Chazz's words fell, the magic card flipped open. The Sealing Master seemed to mutter a series of incantations, and the talisman was released, instantly forming a sealing field that enveloped the entire arena.
"This card can only be used with 'Sealing Master Mingqing,'" Chazz said, "With this card on the field, neither side can activate trap cards, and all trap effects are negated!"
Nagasaku's face slightly changed.
If this card takes effect, he won't be able to use his covered traps in the backfield.
Sealing Master Mingqing has an attack power of 1100, while I still have a derivative with 1000 defense points on the field. If the derivative is destroyed, I'll take 300 points of damage, and I currently only have 100 life points...
A comical death in the gutter. To be taken out like this would be too ridiculous.
"Then, before your magic takes effect, chain and activate cover card, trap card 'Sacrificial Altar,'" Nagasaku said in a deep voice, "Sacrifice 'Dragon Demon - Dragon Knight King' on my field to restore 2400 life points."
[Chazz Nagasaku, LP 100→LP 2500]
This way, at least the life line is restored to health, not easily taken out by the derivative.
"It's not over yet," Chazz continued, "Next is Continuous Magic 'Level Restriction B Area'!
All monsters on the field of level four or above must switch to defense position!"
Nagasaku's face slightly changed.
"I see, after trap lock comes attack seal." He nodded.
Now, it's becoming a bit tricky.
But Chazz wasn't finished yet.
"Finally, this card, field spell—
—Magic Race's Village!!!"
"Hm?"
Even in the stands, Yugen showed a smile of interest.
"Oh, so it's this thing. This is starting to get interesting."
Magic Race's Village, even he had quite an impression of this self-locking divine artifact, back then, countless duelists were left flipping their tables because of it.
Chazz: "Magic Race's Village, on this field, when only your side has Mage Race monsters...
Your opponent cannot activate magic cards!"
Chazz Nagasaku's expression froze.
Can't activate magic, wait...
"Sealing Master Mingqing belongs to the Mage Race," Chazz sneered, "And if I'm not mistaken, brother, at least seventy percent...no, at least eighty percent of your deck is Dragon Race.
I bet there are no mages in there, right?"
Nagasaku's pupils contracted. It doesn't take an expert to understand his situation by now.
This formation...
With magic and trap locked, and the magic still being one-way sealing, Chazz's own magic remains effective, including that attack seal...
Can't attack, can't clear the backfield with magic or traps.
Isn't this just waiting for death!?
"Alright, my turn is over, brother."
Only now did Chazz's taut nerves finally slightly relax.
Looking at the complete formation before him, this fully secure lock gave him a deep breath of relief, and suddenly, he seemed to understand a bit.
Understood why Yugen's duels always seemed unhurried and calmly under control, as if everything was within grasp.
To be fair, if he too constantly dueled within such an ironclad formation, he would be confident too.
After all, when your opponent can't even draw cards anymore, what is there to be afraid of?
"Uh, my turn..."
Chazz Nagasaku drew a card.
But after repeatedly checking his hand, and again confirming the covered cards in the backfield, he finally stared at Chazz's Bright and Clear Sealing Array for a long moment, seemed to have confirmed there was really nothing he could do, and helplessly declared the end of his turn.
"Then my turn, draw card!" Chazz declared, "I summon 'Blood Axe Demon.' Of course, because of the Level Restriction effect, any monster of level four or above must switch to defense position."
[Blood Axe Demon, Defense Power 1200]
"Then activate magic card 'Horse Bone's Price,' send 'Blood Axe Demon' to the graveyard to draw two cards."
Chazz drew two cards.
"Turn ends."
"My turn, draw."
Nagasaku stewed for quite a while, then with a black face.
"...Turn ends."
There really wasn't much he could do.
"Then it's me!" Chazz draws, "I drew another ordinary monster, so according to 'Mortal's Will,' I draw a card."
Chazz draws again.
Then he looks across Nagasaku's field, quickly calculating in his mind.
Just a little more...
"Cover a card, turn ends."
"My turn..."
Chazz Nagasaku draws, glancing at the card he drew.
Speed Attack Magic - Tornado.
In theory, blowing away any backfield card across could break this disgusting block. But with "Magic Race's Village" in play and not having any Mage Race monsters, he couldn't activate any magic cards...
"Turn ends," Nagasaku said gloomily.
He was starting to regret ordering his brother not to use effect monsters.
If not for such a redundant condition, with Yugen's personality, he too wouldn't have chosen such a slow, self-sealing tactic, akin to slicing with a dull knife, very frustrating. If it weren't for this restriction, with the decks Yugen usually used, they would have already been over with brilliant big moves.
Why go through this kind of torment now?
Moreover, who did he learn this psychologically twisted tactic from...
"I drew another ordinary monster, drawing again!"
"My turn, draw!"
The corner of Chazz's mouth curved up.
"Finally here..."
Nagasaku's heart shrank.
What kind of trick is it this time?
"Speed Attack Magic 'Fusion Dispel,' defuse fusion of my 'Ojama King' on the field.
Return, Ojama Brothers!"
[Ojama Yellow, Defense Power 1000]
[Ojama Black, Defense Power 1000]
[Ojama Green, Defense Power 1000]
"Watch closely, brother! This is the potential of an underdog!
Activate Magic Card—"
He raised the newly drawn card high.
"Disrupting Triangle Lightning!" (Original Card)
An original card that hasn't been physically realized, it's the upgraded version of Disrupting Triangle Hurricane, the true ultimate move of the Ojama Brothers!
"Can only be activated when Ojama Yellow, Black, and Green exist on the field at the same time. Send a 'Disrupting Triangle Hurricane' from the deck to the graveyard, and destroy all your opponent's cards on the field!" Chazz declared, "And when the effect of this card starts processing, deal 500 points of damage for each card in your opponent's hand and on the field!"
Chazz Nagasaku's face suddenly changed: "500 points for each card...damn it!"
"Brother, you have three cards in hand, plus there's Ancestral Dragon, Ojama Derivative, and Blast Flame Piercing on the field," Chazz added, "Hence, destroy all cards on the field and deal you 3000 points of damage.
Go, minions!"
The Ojama Brothers responded, leaped up with a loud shout, the three of them clashed together like a spinning fiery wheel!
Secret Technique: Disrupting Triangle Lightning!!!
The entire field was consumed by storm and lightning, with Ancestral Dragon and half of the arena along with it. Chazz Nagasaku let out a muffled groan, collapsed halfway to his knees, cards scattering everywhere.
