03x02 - Realm of The Cipher Dragon

[bunniefuu]

Xyz Dimension's city, Heartland.

There soldiers from the Academy were turning even defenseless people into cards.

Dueling isn't a tool for conflict!

True Dueling is to bring smiles to people!

Wow!

This is my first time seeing a Duel like this!

This is real Dueling!

Damn it!

There were still others left?

Are you prepared to repent?!

ARC Area Project.

In line with the Fusion Dimension Academy's plan,

Xyz Dimension's city Heartland is pushed to the brink of destruction.

A sea of despair, A closing door.

Nowhere to go, a fading light.

The sweet whispers of the darkness.

Emotions torn between conflicting ideals.

I don't know which one to choose!

Even if I try to push my way through with force,

What will it even change?

No matter what I do, I can't I can't move.

Connecting, bonding, the sound of love, individual worlds,

Embrace karma, you cannot escape because...

Only I can overcome myself!

Hatred is not what will create our tomorrow.

{blurbordba&H&fade(,)}Smiles are what make people stronger!

Divide the darkness and press forward.

When you are struggling is the time to smile!

I do believe in myself.

I believe!

It's starting! Showtime!

I will determine if you are friend or foe through a Duel!

I will determine if you are friend or foe through a Duel!

Sawatari and Gongenzaka face off against Kaito...!!

Sawatari and Gongenzaka face off against Kaito...!!

Galaxy-Eyes

Why would you do this...

Why?!

That's obvious.

They are with the Academy.

My enemy!

Even if they're your enemy...

You can't just thoughtlessly turn them into cards!

If you do that, you're no different than them!

That's right!

You'll be just like those scumbags then! Is that what you want!?

You were just about to do that a moment ago.

Are you from the Resistance?

I heard that the Resistance had been wiped out, but...

Thank goodness!

Thank goodness?

Are you just glad to have more prey to hunt?

No!

We're your allies!

I'll be the judge of that.

What?!

They used all kinds of methods to deceive us and hunt us down.

That's why I decided...

I will determine who is friend or foe through my Dueling!

Now, prepare yourselves!

Interesting, then I'll take you on!

Sawatari!

Why are you giving into his provocation?

Shut up!

Not only does he turn the guys we let go into cards,

now he says he'll decide if we're friend or foe?

I'm not going to stay silent and let him decide that for himself!

I'll be the one to decide that first!

You're our enemy!

Kind old me won't turn you into a card, but...

I'll knock some sense into that twisted personality of yours!

Prepare yourself!

Action Field: On!

Field Spell: Cross Over.

Action Field?

That's right, this is my Dueling!

Hey!

It's not yours alone!

Action Dueling is our...

Don't worry about the details!

More importantly, we haven't been able to do that in a while!

Offer me some support, my followers!

F-Followers?!

Unforgivable!

Duelists locked in battle!

Ki-kicking against the earth and dancing in the air alongside their monsters!

They storm through this Field...

Behold! This is the newest and greatest evolution of Dueling!

Action...

DUEL!

I'll be going first!

I Summon Abyss Actor - Wild Hope from my hand!

Then I set one card and end my turn.

Action Duel...

Wait!

I, the man Gongenzaka, will be taking part in this Duel as well!

Intrusion Penalty: LP

Gongenzaka, not you too!

My turn!

Draw!

I Summon Superheavy Samurai Swordsman!

Oh? Usually you're so deadset on defense, but you Summoned it in att*ck Position?

He's really ticked you off, huh?

I like it, go for it! Knock him out of here!

No, I won't make a move.

Huh?

Not just me, neither will you or him.

I activate the effect of Superheavy Samurai Armament Chusai from my hand and equip it to Swordsman!

With its effect, only Swordsman can declare an att*ck!

Additionally...!

Swordsman has the effect to make the of the monster it battles .

That way, it's unbeatable in battle.

This way no one will be able to att*ck.

That's right.

I ended up begrudgingly shouting that opening statement, but...

I can't let that guy duel Sawatari head-on.

We don't know if he's part of the Resistance or not, but...

Right now, we need as many comrades as we can find.

This isn't the time for those who see the Academy as a mutual enemy to be fighting!

Nice job, Gongenzaka!

Now no one will be able to make a move or get hurt!

This is strength of Steadfast Dueling!

Steadfast? Who needs that?

If you don't want to move, then sit there by yourself!

I activate the Action Spell: Break Ruin!

This card deals damage per hand size difference between me and my opponent!

I have and you have , so you take damage!

Superheavy Samurai Armament Chusai is destroyed when effect damage is dealt.

See that? This is the strength of Action Dueling!

Your Steadfast Dueling didn't do anything at all!

You really are unbearable!

Even though Yuya and I had a heart to heart understanding...

Huh? Heart to heart?

Why don't you think about our current situation a bit!?

What's the point of comrades fighting amongst each other when the Academy is invading this city?!

I don't recall ever stating that you were my comrades.

I told you that I would determine whether you are friend or foe through my Dueling.

But I've already made my decision.

Action Field... Action Spell...

There is no one who uses that in this city, Heartland, where I was born and raised!

Simply put, you are invaders from another dimension!

Enemies of Heartland!

You stating that you wouldn't move is the same as saying you're ending your turn!

Then from here on, it's my turn!

I Summon Cipher Wing from my hand!

Cipher...!

When I control a Cipher Wing, I can Special Summon another Cipher Wing from my hand!

Two Level s, this is the Xyz Dimension...

If he has two monsters of the same Level...!

I won't let you!

I activate the Continuous Trap: Abyss Actor Vacancy!

One monster on the field cannot be used as material for a Summon with another monster of the same Level!

I target your Level Cipher Wing!

Now you can't perform an Xyz Summon with Level s.

The fact that you had that Trap set already means...

From the start...

Of course!

Before we showed up, he had out a dragon we've never seen before.

It's most likely that's his ace monster!

The fact that he's still alive and fighting in this city that's been invaded by the Academy...

Means he has a considerably powerful monster.

So in order to b*at a guy like that...

Sealing his Ace Monster is the best strategy to aim for...

Looks like you get it!

Does this mean we just communicated heart to heart too?

It's true I understand your intention.

But you still don't understand anything!

Huh?

I'm saying that I want us to stop this fight right now!

I don't care if we win, just end it as quick as-

No, you can't win.

Huh?

If you think that alone will defeat Kaito...

Kaito?

That's his name.

Why do I know that?

Yuto...

Is that you, Yuto?

Are you telling me about him?

Yes.

He's Kaito.

He's a well-known Duelist in Heartland.

But his facial expression is greatly different from before...

But that monster definitely is...!

I activate the Continuous Spell: Cipher Interfere from my hand!

When I control two or more "Cipher" monsters, during battle, one of their s are doubled.

Battle!

I att*ck Abyss Actor - Wild Hope with Cipher Wing!

A-At this moment, I activate Wild Hope's effect!

When this card is destroyed, I can add one "Abyss Actor" card from my Deck to my hand!

I att*ck directly with my other Cipher Wing!

Sawatari!

And now, Cipher Interfere's effect ends.

I set two cards and end my turn.

Keep it together Sawatari!

This Duel has only just started!

Kaito was strong.

Before the Academy invaded, he was expected to become Heartland's Duel Champion...

Duel Champion?

But...

Kaito's Dueling back than had more warmth.

Now all I can feel from him is anger!

Anger...?

Yes.

What happened to him while I was gone?

Now I'm pissed off!

I was holding back because you've been holding off the Academy by yourself, but...

I'm going all out now!

My turn!

If that's how you want it, then...

I, using the Scale Abyss Actor - Devil Heel and the Scale Abyss Actor - Funky Comedian,

Set the Pendulum Scale!

With this, I'm able to simultaneously Summon monsters from Levels to .

Simultaneously?

Pendulum Summon!

Come forth, my monsters!

First off, from my hand, Abyss Actor - Big Star!

And be revived from my Extra Deck, Abyss Actor - Wild Hope!

So destroyed monsters are sent to the Extra Deck...

Pendulum Summon...

Back then, Shun and I were learning at one of Heartland's Duel Schools, Spade.

Kaito was the ace of our rival school, Clover.

His play style was stylish and exciting.

He was unmatched at seeing through his opponents' strategy.

Big Star's monster effect!

Once per turn, I can add an "Abyss Script" Spell Card to my hand!

Then I'll activate it!

Abyss Script - Abode of the Fire Dragon, with Big Star as my target!

Now when Big Star destroys one of your monsters, I can banish cards from your Extra Deck.

I see!

He's going to use that to banish the dragon in Kaito's Extra Deck...!

Also, I activate the Continuous Spell: Abyss Actor's Costume Box!

Once per turn, I can activate an "Abyss Costume" card from my Deck.

I select Abyss Actor's Hero Sword and equip it to Big Star!

With this, Big Star's is increased by !

Next up is Funky Comedian's Pendulum Effect!

Pendulum Effect?

Once per turn, I can send one "Abyss Actor" Pendulum Monster I control to my Extra Deck,

Then I can add that monster's to another monster this turn!

I send Wild Hope to the Extra Deck and increase Big Star's by Wild Hope's !

Battle, Big Star!

att*ck Cipher Wing!

I'm going to banish that dragon of yours!

At this moment, by Continuous Spell: Cipher Interfere's effect, Cipher Wing's is doubled!

And I activate the Continuous Trap: Cipher Shield!

If I control two or more "Cipher" monsters, then "Cipher" monsters cannot be destroyed by battle!

Damn it, I dealt some damage, but I couldn't banish the dragon!

And now, I activate the Continuous Trap: Cipher Chain!

When I take battle damage, I can activate it, targeting all monsters on the field!

What?!

If any of the monsters connected by this chain are destroyed, all connected monsters will also be destroyed!

And all players will take the combined of all the destroyed monsters in damage!

The total of all the monsters?!

That's a nice move you pulled there...

No matter how many so-called "Pendulum Monsters" you bring out, I'll destroy them all!

But, you will be the ones ones taking damage!

Thanks to Cipher Shield, I won't take any effect damage!

And at the end of the Battle Phase, Cipher Interfere's effect on Cipher Wing ends...

This is his... Kaito's Dueling?!

No!

It's true that he was exciting back then, but,

He would never hammer down his opponents mercilessly like this!

I end my turn here.

Now, Funky Comedian's Pendulum Effect ends, and Big Star's returns to normal.

At least with this, I've cut the damage down by ...

That does next to nothing!

Our total is still at !

No wait, there's one thing that can turn around this situation!

My turn!

I Summon Superheavy Samurai Flutist!

And I send Superheavy Samurai Armament Makarugaeshi to my Graveyard from my hand,

Then I Special Summon the Tuner Monster, Superheavy Samurai - Trumpeter!

I Tune my Level Swordsman and Flutist to my Level Trumpeter!

Shinobi hiding in the darkness,

Emerge onto this warground with a cry that echoes in the mountains!

Synchro Summon!

Come before us!

Superheavy Samurai Ninja Sarutobi!

I activate Sarutobi's effect!

Once per turn, when there are no Spell or Trap Cards in my Graveyard,

I can destroy one Spell or Trap card my opponent controls and deal damage!

I destroy Cipher Chain!

Due to Cipher Shield, I don't take the effect damage!

With Abyss Actor Costume Box, I choose the Equip Spell: Abyss Costume Dwarf Shield from my Deck!

You saved me from this pinch Gongenzaka, here's your reward!

I equip Dwarf Shield to Sarutobi!

It increases its DEF by !

Battle!

I att*ck Cipher Wing with Sarutobi!

Superheavy Samurai Ninja Sarutobi can att*ck while in Defense Position!

Due to the effect of Cipher Interfere, Cipher Wing's is doubled,

And due to the effect of the Continuous Trap - Cipher Shield, Cipher Wing is not destroyed!

But you will take the damage!

Now, Cipher Interfere's effect ends.

I end my turn here.

Thanks to Gongenzaka, they avoided the danger of Cipher Chain...

No, he still has his monsters.

Yeah, as long he has monsters he can use as Xyz Materials...

They can't relax yet.

What're you talking about?

Did you already forget?

That due to the effect of my Continuous Trap: Abyss Actor Vacancy,

He can't use Level monsters as materials for Special Summoning!

I'll say it again!

No matter how much you struggle, you won't be able to perform an Xyz Summon!

We'll see about that.

What?!

My turn!

I Summon my third Cipher Wing!

I already told you, even if you bring out a Level , you can't do Xyz-

Who ever said I was going to Summon using a Level ?

I Release my third Cipher Wing and activate its monster effect!

I raise the Levels of the "Cipher" monsters I control by !

They're both Level now!

I Overlay my two level Cipher Wings!

Galaxy shining in the darkness,

Embody the demon of revenge and become my very servant!

Xyz Summon!

Descend!

Rank !

Galaxy-Eyes Cipher Dragon!

Galaxy-Eyes Cipher Dragon!

I can feel incredible anger coming from this monster!

Almost as if Kaito's anger has possessed it...

You lot have nowhere to run now.

I won't show any mercy, even if you beg.

You surprised me with the Rank ,

But Pendulum Monsters are sent to the Extra Deck when they're destroyed, I'll just Pendulum Summon them next turn!

There is no next turn!

I use one Overlay Unit, and activate Galaxy-Eyes Cipher Dragon's monster effect!

Cipher Projection!

Once per turn, I can take control of one monster my opponent controls with its effect negated until the End Phase!

Sarutobi was-!

Additionally, Sarutobi can be treated as Galaxy-Eyes Cipher Dragon, and becomes the same !

I change Sarutobi to att*ck Position!

He has two dragons now!

Battle!

I att*ck Abyss Actor - Big Star with the Sarutobi turned into Galaxy-Eyes Cipher Dragon!

When I control two "Cipher" monsters, the Continuous Spell: Cipher Interfere...

will double the of one of them!

Are you prepared to repent?!

Cipher Stream of Eradication!

This is the end for you as well!

I att*ck directly with Galaxy-Eyes Cipher Dragon!

Gongenzaka... Sawatari!

You won't escape either!

I'll turn the lot of you into cards!

I won't let anyone get turned into cards again!

Sawatari, Gongenzaka...

The people still surviving in Heartland...

Even the Academy's soldiers!

It's useless...

Kaito isn't going to listen to what you have to say!

If he won't listen to me, then I'll have him understand through a Duel!

What I learned with my Duel in the City with Jack!

If I put my words and my feelings into my Dueling...

Even Kaito will come to understand!

Don't do that, don't hide your tears, pierrot. Don't lie to your emotions.

Days when you fail over and over, every time you're about to give in, you cover it up with a smile.

We can't give up because we have a plan of the future, the dice have already been cast.

What are you drawing in your conflict? A vision I've painted all by myself.

Don't do that, don't repeat your mistakes! Saying it's impossible is just an excuse!

It's not a lie. Your smile is what has given me strength time and time again.

You are the vision I've drawn.

You know my name?

So you are from the Academy!

No! I just want to speak to you through Dueling!

It's useless, Yuya!

Kaito isn't going to listen to you!

But if I put my feelings into my Dueling...

Even Kaito too will...!

Talk is pointless!

The Academy only deserves death!
