Who Let Him Play Yu-Gi-Oh! novel Chapter 398

Chapter 398: Chapter 397: A Challenge to the Champion (Bonus)

"Elemental Hero?"

Koyo was also taken aback for a moment, but quickly narrowed his eyes.

"So, you’re really underestimating me."

To deliberately choose Elemental Heroes—his specialty—to fight against him, Koyo felt his dignity as a champion was being challenged.

"Let’s battle," the Arbiter declared. "Elemental HERO Phoenix Enforcer, attack ’Elemental Hero Stratos’."

Phoenix Enforcer flapped his wings, dashing forward. His fist, wreathed in flames, crashed forth like an explosion. The blazing punch pierced right through Stratos’s chest, and in an instant, the erupting fire consumed Stratos entirely.

[Koyo, LP 4000 → LP 3700]

Koyo crossed his arms before himself, staggering back under the aftershock of the flames.

"This pain..." He gritted his teeth.

Sure enough, it was another Shadow Duel.

Just like that night he once experienced...

From the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of his sister in the audience, her face full of worry.

Koyo quickly straightened, smiled reassuringly at her, and made a gesture to show he was fine.

"I activate my set card—Trap Card, ’Hero Signal’!"

With a swipe, he flipped over his back row card.

"When an Elemental Hero on my field is destroyed by battle, I can Special Summon a Level 4 or lower ’Elemental Hero’ from my hand or Deck."

He drew a card from his Deck.

"Come on out, Elemental HERO Woodsman!"

A muscular hero, his body green and dressed like a primitive warrior, appeared on the field following the projection marker, landing in front of Koyo and blocking with his log-like arms.

[Elemental HERO Woodsman, DEF 2000]

"Nice, with 2000 Defense, he can block the next attack!" Jaden said.

"Then the battle ends," the Arbiter raised his hand. "’Guardian Sphinx’s’ effect: once per turn, it can flip itself face-down into defense position."

"I set ’Guardian Sphinx’ face-down."

The Sphinx-like guardian slipped back under the card, placed on the Arbiter’s field, lying in wait.

"Then I set a card face-down and end my turn."

Koyo frowned.

He remembered this card’s effect. Guardian Sphinx: when successfully Flip Summoned, it bounces all opponent’s monsters back to their hand—a powerful effect.

If he didn’t deal with this tricky monster soon, he’d be put at a huge disadvantage.

"My turn—draw!" Koyo said. "In my Standby Phase, ’Elemental HERO Woodsman’s’ effect activates. Once per turn, I can add a ’Polymerization’ Spell from my Deck or Graveyard to my hand."

Koyo drew the card he searched for.

"Then I activate ’Polymerization’!" He played the card he just retrieved. "I fuse ’Elemental Hero Ocean’ in my hand with ’Elemental HERO Woodsman’ on the field!"

"Ocean and forest," the Arbiter observed calmly. "Here it comes."

Forest and ocean swirled into the vortex of fusion, forming the embodiment of the third planet. A giant white figure appeared, its feet shaking the earth as it landed.

[Elemental HERO Terra Firma, ATK 2500]

"The Planet series: Terra."

The Arbiter looked up at the white giant, a curious smile forming.

"Heh, this is interesting."

Koyo continued: "Now I activate the Spell Card ’Hero’s Legacy’. If there are at least two Level 5 or higher Heroes in my Graveyard, I draw three cards." (Manga card)
