02x20 - Stop the Presses! / The Fantastic Underground Luke Factory

[bunniefuu]

My name is Luke. My name is Luke.

A super elite salaryman.

During my morning commute, everyone turns to look at how cool I am.

Ack!

Of course, once you get on my level, you get a free pass through all gates.

Huh?

But it's me?

Plus, this is my castle.

All the world's businesses revolve around this room.

Alongside my competent, magnificent subordinates...

Just what storm shall I stir up in the business world today?

The thought makes my heart race!

Elite Salaryman
Kamijou Tatsuhisa

Ah.

Go enjoy, feel, believe, and plunge into the light!

For some reason, when I looked up at the sun, I sneezed

A weird action, satisfaction, a hunch that something would happen

On those stifling days, come here when you're tired

Keep chasing your impulsive urges, for the ordinary is boring

To your turn that belongs to no one else

To the end of the road that no one sees

To our Harevutai that's like no one else's

greatest stage

I wanna enjoy, feel, believe, and kick the earth!

Limit break past your dreams and aim for that meteor!

We'll go beyond that boundary and surpass it!

Believe in that light shining in your hands!

Go enjoy, feel, believe, and plunge into the light!

Rush! Rush! Rush! Rush Duel!

Rush! Rush! Rush! Rush Duel!

Let's go Rush! Let's go Rush!

"The Fantastic Underground Luke Factory"

I've totally changed my ways! I'll show you in a duel! (lol)

Click!

Double Talk: Alright, got it!

Double Talk: You all looked super cool!

Of course, of course!

Our newspaper club would love to have an in-depth interview with everyone who's become a Goha employee.

First, allow me to ask:

What do you do in the Department of Luke Operations?

My plans for the day? Eat gyoza!

The gyoza at Tahayasty are delicious and full of meat!

The gyoza at Tahayasty are delicious and full of meat!

The gyoza at Tahayasty are delicious and full of meat!

N-Not that!

He's asking what work we do here, swirl...

Oh, work! You should've said so!

Our gyoza plans for today are...

Check out what the other guys are doing and decide from there!

This is the General Headquarters' Department of Internal Discipline - Serious Division!

So much work!

It looks like he's stamping documents.

Alright, we gotta make some potato stamps!

Jot it down so you don't forget!

Swirl...

This is the employee cafeteria.

Absolutely not!

No curry! Anything but curry!

Double Talk: Ugh, why not?!

Double Talk: What do you mean by “anything but curry”?!

This is the Energy Development Division's Gohanium Section, swirl.

Everyone, witness!

It's my Mama at work!

Oh, are you working too, Yoshio-chan? Do your best!

You too, Mama!

Let's go.

This is the Duel Development Department.

Ah, Gravey!

Hm?

Luke!

Yo!

I'm doing a presentation on a new type of vending machine right now.

Wanna watch?

Nah, we're just making some stops.

No need to give us any presents!

Ahahaha...

Double Talk: AAAHH!!!

Hm?

Gravey?!

So they weren't able to survive the battle.

How unfortunate.

So, what's today's plan?

Oh, hey, isn't that—?

You're...

The Sneezcavation Kid!

Oh, no, no, it's Gotou Hunt!

Anyway, I heard the news!

Congratulations on your hiring as a Division Manager!

Ahahaha, well, y'know!

How've you been?

Well, I've already dug up all the Maximums then couldn't grab a Fusion, so it's been rough, honestly.

You couldn't grab one, swirl?

My nose is great for finding stuff underground, but it's totally useless for things in the sky.

Because of that, I got into a big fight with the club and now it's on the verge of disbanding...

Oh, that sucks.

Later!

Hold on a moment!

Huh?!

Don't be a stranger!

Sorry, but I gotta work on my Luke Department's Plan of Gyoza! I'm busy!

You mean our plan of operations, swirl...

If you want a plan of operations, then leave it to me!

We've come a long way down...

A plan of operations means business.

And business means money.

The smell of money is from somewhere around here...

Sniff, sniff, sniff!

It's a dead end!

Achoo!

Oooooh!

Click!

What is this place?

It appears to be an abandoned factory.

Sniff, sniff, sniff...

This isn't it.

Something else smells more like a money-maker...

Double Talk: Achoo!

Double Talk: Achoo! Achoo!

Woah!

Double Talk: Click!

Th-This is...?

A mysterious machine found in an abandoned factory beneath Goha Corporation!

Just who made it?! And what for?!

The shocking answer is coming up next!

I-It's...!

A Duel Card Manufacturer.

How did you know?!

It's written here, swirl.

Hm? So that means...

Mhm... Ah, okay!

I see.

It has the same controls as a newspress.

If I do this...

Ah!

The☆Luke Division Manager.

ATK, DEF.

Level , DRAGON attribute, Business-type.

Effect: When this card enters the field, instantly destroy all of your opponent's monsters.

Then att*ck directly and inflict Trillion Damage.

S-Swirl-wirl-wirl...

That's a lot...

I can't believe it! I absolutely can't believe it!

And yet, this unbelievable situation is unraveling right before our eyes!

I made this as a test, but what do you think?

I-I-I-It's...

It's brilliant!

Absolutely brilliant!

The machine's old, so these are different from today's cards.

Maybe they were made as display samples.

JACKPOT!

Huh?

If we make a few tweaks, could this thing make modern cards too?

Huh? Yes, probably...

You can't be thinking of...

But of course!

As long as I have this machine, I can make as many Maximums and Fusions as I want!

No, maybe even better cards...

What?!

For example...

What about this?

Genius Archaeologist Boy Hunt.

ATK, DEF.

Level , GOLD attribute, Swindler-type.

Effect: Dig up all cards in your opponent's deck and confiscate them for yourself.

I wanna try!

Me too!

Knock yourself out!

Glasses Girl Nico!

ATK, DEF.

"Thanks for the sh*t!"

Swirl...

Adorable Newbie Swirly!

ATK, DEF.

Level , LOVE attribute, Swirly-type Normal!

"It's my card, swirl!"

as*ault & Infringement Reporter Masaru.

ATK, DEF.

"How does it feel being a card?"

Post-Apocalyptic Battle King Yoshio.

ATK, DEF.

Level , FIGHT attribute, Son-type Normal.

"I've become a card?! I'll have to show this to Mama later!"

What do you think, Luke-san?

If you adopt a venture like this, the Department of Luke Operations will flourish!

You might even be able to climb to the top of Goha!

The top of Goha?

Yes! In other words, you'd be president!

Ohhhhh!

Text: President

You mustn't, Luke-san!

That's something you absolutely mustn't do!

O-Of course!

I was just about to say that myself...

Are you serious?

Whoever acts first wins the w*r!

(hehe)

This guy...

He abandoned his persona and became a tainted, irredeemable evil!

Evil?

And what's wrong with that?!

You shall be punished!

Weekly Chara: Excavation Spiral!

Click.

Now, Division Manager, let's carry this machine out.

Please wait!

The Media of Justice, th Elementary's Newspaper Club...

I cannot turn a blind eye to such foul acts!

Hey you guys...

What a riot!

Stuff like justice, honesty, and purity...

Do you really think the world is kind enough for those dramatics?!

Even still, as part of the mass media, I will uphold justice!

U-Um...

In that case, why don't we decide if you're right in a duel?

If you can win, that is!

Bring it on.

Hellooo?

RUSH DUEL: Rush Duel!

News is all about speed.

It's my turn, draw!

First, I set a card.

Then, I summon Delivery Machine Whirr and Reportrain!

I sacrifice both of them to tribute summon!

Weekly Chara : There it is! I did it! I've got a major scoop!

Weekly Chara : Spin, spin, my printing press!

Weekly Chara : Print out the extras!

Weekly Chara : News Flash Machine Toughroid!

Hehe.

I send the top card of my deck to the grave and activate Toughroid's effect!

You reveal the top cards of your deck,

and for every monster revealed, its ATK increases by !

I call it the...

Weekly Chara : Scandal Break!

Hmph.

Look as much as you want.

Oho? Looks like they're all monsters, thank you.

You may now return the cards to the bottom of your deck in any order.

Roger that, I'll bury them like this.

Then, I activate the spell card, Duplicate Newspaper!

I special summon a Machine-type monster with the same name as Toughroid from my grave!

Now that the other Toughroid is back, I'll end my turn.

Are you okay with this, Luke-san?

If Hunt-san wins, we'll end up tainting our hands with a corrupt business too...

Huh? What?

Luke-san...

Hahaha, I'm just kidding!

Hahahaha!

It's my turn now. Draw!

First, I'll send the top card of my deck to the grave

to activate the spell card Financial Fighting Spirit!

I change the position of News Flash Machine Toughroid.

Then, I can draw one.

Next, I summon Upstart King Rex!

I activate Upstart King's effect. We both draw one card.

Heh, thank you for that.

Its effect isn't over yet!

Since I have Upstart Goblin in my grave,

I can set it on my field and then activate it!

I draw one!

After that, you gain LP.

You've been pretty generous.

However, bribery will not work on this reporter of justice!

Did you forget what I said earlier?

Huh?

Heh.

The world isn't a kind enough place for justice to thrive! Hahaha!

Weekly Chara: With an exceptional sense of excavation!

Weekly Chara: The envy of all Jurassic!

Weekly Chara: I'll trample on even my seniors to climb up in the world!

Weekly Chara: Hunt! Hunter! Huntist!

Weekly Chara: Maximum Summon!

Weekly Chara: Great Imperial Dinocarriage Dynarmix!

Th-This is...

A Maximum, swirl!

He said he wanted money, so I thought he'd have sold it already...

Of course I didn't sell it!

Unlike Hakubutsu Kan or Hotta Kaseki who've served their purpose, this is much more valuable!

Now, just try and show me the power of justice.

I discard a card to activate Dinosaur Crush!

There's more to go!

I discard Zenigebazauls and activate Dynarmix's effect!

I destroy your two Toughroids!

Weekly Chara: God-Hunting Blaster!

Ah... my last means of defense...!

Destroy justice in the name of business!

Weekly Chara: Giant Dynarmix Impact!

It's unfortunate that I couldn't end it now.

I end my turn.

My, oh my! Are you getting scared in the face of defeat?

My name is Shinjitsu Bakuro.

And what about it?

I'm going to use my newspaper abilities to reveal the truth!

The truth... of this duel!

It's my turn! I draw!

I summon two monsters!

Heh, with all your talk about truth, I thought you'd do something amazing...

But it's just two scrubs!

I sacrifice Reportrain and tribute summon!

Reporter Raccoon Miketan!

Oh, a raccoon!

It's said that raccoon statues have been symbols of good luck.

I can just smell the money, heheh!

Sorry, but this raccoon is an envoy of the news here to expose your corruption!

Hm?

I send Miketan to the grave to activate her effect.

I special summon a Toughroid from my grave in face up defense!

Then, I can add Delivery Machine Whirr to my hand.

Hehe! Gathering up all those small fry won't help you reveal the truth behind Dynarmix.

Dynarmix is a symbol of power.

It can suppress and cover up any and all news coverage!

If sheer numbers won't work, then how about we unite as one?

Fusion!!

Weekly Chara : Reveal, reveal, reveal it all!

Weekly Chara : Tear down that iron curtain with a massive warship!

Weekly Chara : Broadcast! Report! Gossip!

Weekly Chara : Fusion Summon!

Weekly Chara : Lightning Speed, the Rumbling Report Warship!

What?!

What is that?!

A new Fusion Monster!

Did you know about it?

Yeah, just now.

Then, I send Delivery Machine Whirr to the grave to activate the spell, Tile Burn!

You reveal the bottom five cards of your deck!

Then, you take damage for every monster card revealed!

Those five monsters represent your secrets!

And, with them revealed, you take damage!

I've been exposed!

Return those cards to the top of your deck, please.

Then, I send the top card of my deck to the grave!

Rumbling Report Warship's effect!

Weekly Chara : Blitzkrieg!

Have you prepared yourself?

I'll be revealing all of your secrets!

Reveal the top cards of your deck!

Your monster's ATK decreases by for each revealed monster until the end of the turn!

Stop! Stop it! You're revealing too much!

This is a violation of privacy!

What a wonderful barrage of reports!

They say the pen is mightier than the sword, but this is a cannon of reveals!

Though you have a Maximum, you don't have a Fusion.

This is the truth you revealed before the duel and the reason for your defeat!

Ack!

Now, face the final scoop!

Lightning Speed, the Rumbling Report Warship att*cks!

Weekly Chara : Targeting sights operational!

Weekly Chara : Distance and bearing confirmed!

Weekly Chara : All g*ns of the Revelation Cannon, lock on!

Weekly Chara : FIRE!!

I'm just a victim of fake news!

I just... I just wanted to live in a mansion with a pool, drive around in a luxury car,

and live a life where I can play every day!

I just wanted to chase this small little dream!

Is your dream something you can buy with money?

Work under me.

If you do...

I'll show you what a real dream is.

L-Luke-san...!

Good for you, Hunt-kun!

Swirl? Something just fell from above...

Th-That was a shock, swirl...

But that card making machine was buried under.

Nah, this is for the best.

Luke-san....

Hrk!

I'll help myself to a sh*t of that classic gag!

Hm?

What's this?

It looks like an ID card.

Wh—?!

I-Isn't this...?!

Goha...

Yuuga...?

"Goha Yuuga"?!

The back that's supposed to be far beyond

is out of sight

There's no map leading to the goal

So which way should I even go?

I had planned on standing alone

But now, you're by my side

and that isn't bad at all

Even if my hands can't reach

the future I want to grasp

and the dreams I want to come true

still remain as dreams

Let's sing as loud as we can!

As long as I walk beside you

Tomorrow will surely surpass today!

I will surely surpass the me of today!

It's Yuuga,

Luke, and friends'

Monster Research Lab!

Today is Bakuro's Lightning Speed, the R... Rum... bling...?

I can't read this at all!

There's a lot of difficult kanji that elementary schoolers can't read...

It's Lightning Speed, the Rumbling Report Warship.

It seems like a powerful Fusion Monster!

But you know, being able to read this makes me feel like a grown-up!

Next time

An Adult's Corporate Entertainment Rush Duel

Next time: An Adult's Corporate Entertainment Rush Duel!

So we're making a "Corporate Entertainment Road"...?

Next time: "An Adult's Corporate Entertainment Rush Duel"

Okay Oudou-san, let's go! Allow me to draw~!!
