"Duel!" x2
Yuei Vu, LP 4000
Kagemaru, LP 4000
The one who would make the first move was Yuei Vu.
Compared to other characters in the anime, Yuei Vus knowledge of Chairman Kagemaru's duel style was relatively lacking. In the anime, Chairman Kagemaru, who was a stage boss, has only played one game of cards in total, and he used a Sacred Beast deck.
Chairman Kagemaru, who controlled the three Sacred Beasts in that duel, might theoretically be stronger than Yuki Judai at that time. Judai himself said in the subsequent plot that if it weren't for the divine card "Sabatiel The Philosopher's Stone" entrusted to him by Daitokuji, it would be difficult for him to win that duel.
The Philosopher's Stone was the ultimate creation of alchemy in the anime. This card could "change" into any three cards according to the duelist's will, and there was not even a limit of once per turn. And after the effect is used up three times, it could also be equipped on one's own monsters. The equipped monster's attack power would be multiplied by the number of monsters on the opponent's field.
The effect of this card was extremely outrageous. Compared with this kind of absurdly OP weapon, the three Sacred Beasts were simply trash.
Being instantly killed by such a fake card did not mean that Kagemaru was not strong enough. Judging from the memories of his subordinates "Seven Stars", Chairman Kagemaru seemed to be a strong man with a transcendent status.
After all, he could recruit vampires, Amazon warriors, top alchemists, and even a certain generation of ancient Egyptian pharaohs to serve as his subordinates. His strength should also be among the top among the Shadow Duelists.
So although he still didn't directly take out the HERO series this time, Yuei Vu also chose a series with good combat power in his hand.
A high-end deck that has also won the championship in the past.
"The effect of the Swap Frog' in my hand is activated." Yuei Vu said, "This card can be directly special summoned from the hand by discarding 1 other WATER monster.
I discarded Ronintoadin' to the graveyard and Special Summoned the Swap Frog'! "
[Swap Frog, ATK 1000]
"Is it a Frog deck?"
Kagemaru's dull voice came from the life-support cabin. Not sure if it was an illusion, but Yuei Vu felt that his vision had become sharper.
"Do you think I'm not worthy of your all-out efforts? Such an attitude will make you pay the price." Kagemaru said.
"Whatever you say." Yuei Vu said.
Because Kagemaru in the anime only played once with the Sacred Beast deck, Yuei Vu had no clue as to what deck and tactics he used before acquiring the Three Sacred Beasts.
He could only take one step at a time.
"Another effect of Swap Frog' is that when it is successfully summoned, I can send 1 Level 2 or lower WATER Aqua monster from my Deck or face-up field to the GY."
A card automatically popped up in the deck, and he pulled it out and displayed it.
"I send Treeborn Frog' from the deck to the graveyard."
Yuei Vu then took another card from his hand.
"Use the Swap Frog' on the field as a sacrifice, Tribute Summon! The Emperor of Heat
Thestalos the Firestorm Monarch! ! ! "
The frog's body was swallowed up by the firestorm, decomposing and dissipating from the field. The emperor in fiery red armor stepped onto the field, his armor burned red, and his palms trailed bright and dancing firelight.
[Thestalos the Firestorm Monarch, ATK 2400]
"Interesting." Yuei Vu said, "Is Mars in the Legendary Planet series actually in the hands of Chairman Kagemaru?"
"Spell Card Pot of Greed! Draws two cards from the deck. Then I normal summon Eva' from my hand in attack position."
[Eva, ATK 500]
"The effect of The Blazing Mars is activated." Kagemaru said, "Send 1 other monster on my field to the graveyard and inflict 500 points of damage to the opponent." (manga effect)
The mechanical arm pointed at the monster that had just appeared on the field.
"I send the Eva' to the graveyard and give 500 points of damage to you."
A small alien-shaped creature was loaded into Mars' body and turned into ammunition. The arm of the knight standing above the dragon fell down, and a burning fireball erupted from the dragon's mouth, hitting Yuei Vu head-on.
[Yuei Vu, LP 4000 LP 3500]
"The effect of Eva' If this card is sent to the GY: I can banish up to 2 other LIGHT Fairy monsters from your field and/or GY; add the same number of Level 2 or lower LIGHT Fairy monsters with different names from my Deck to my hand, except Eva'."
Another card pops up in Kagemaru's Duel Disk graveyard.
"I removed Gellenduo' from the game, and added Watapon' from the deck to my hand."
Yuei Vu said: "The effect of Watapons is"
"That's right, when Watapon' is added to the hand from the deck through a card effect, it can be Special Summoned directly."
[Watapon, ATK 200]
"At this moment, activate the Quick-Play Spell Inferno Reckless Summon'." Kagemaru said, "When a monster with an attack power of less than 1500 is Special Summoned to my field, I can Special Summon as many cards with the same name as that monster.
However, as a price, the opponent can also select a monster on their field and special summon as many monsters with the same name as possible. "
"There is only one Thestalos the Firestorm Monarch' in my deck." Yuei Vu said.
If there was no card with the same name, there would naturally be nothing that could be Special Summoned.
"Then I special summon the other two Watapons'."
[Watapon, ATK 200] x3
"The effect of The Blazing Mars' is activated again." Kagemaru said solemnly, "Send a monster on my field to the graveyard, inflicting 500 points of damage to the opponent.
Furthermore, there is no limit to the number of times this effect can be activated in one turn."
He waved his handor, more accurately, his mechanical hand. The metal arm made a soft friction sound from its joints as it danced.
"I sent all three Watapons' to the graveyard and fired them with The Blazing Mars'!"
New ammunition was refilled, and the hot shells came one after another, exploding in front of Yuei Vu.

"Let's fight next." Kagemaru continued, "The Blazing Mars, attack Thestalos the Firestorm Monarch!"
Although they were both emperors who controlled fire, compared to Mars, Thestalos' power was obviously slightly inferior. The erupting fire dragon tore the red-hot armor into pieces and penetrated through Thestalos' chest and abdomen, leaving a scorched black hole.

After losing more than half of his LP in one breath, Yuei Vu took half a step back, but the corners of his mouth rose slightly.
"You are not bad."
