"Ah! Light is about to duel!"
As everyone was joyfully sitting down discussing what to do next, suddenly, an audience member shouted.
5DS Team!
A group of people from the Fusion Dimension quickly sat up properly.
5DS Team is going to duel again!?
What will we see this time?
Ding—dong—
The red lights started flashing.
Then, the green lights lit up!
Bang!
Light and Yaiba Todo rushed directly onto the track.
"You're from the Pendulum Dimension, probably not very familiar with Racing Duels, so I'll let you have the first attack." Light didn't even ask for the first move.
"Hmph—fine!"
"Duel!" x2.
Pendulum Team, Player No. 1, Yaiba Todo, LP: 4000.
5DS Team, LP: 4000.
"Huh?"
Some audience members noticed a problem.
"Why is there only one person's icon on the 5DS side!"
"What, what? A relay duel? Only one person on stage?"
"Isn't that a mistake?"
"5DS, don't be so arrogant, this won't be easy!"
"Oh no, are they going to lose?"
Some doubted.
Facing three alone, no matter how you think about it, it's too difficult!
However, some believed that as long as Light's ace was played, there was hope.
"Ace or not, if you want to use Ultimate Offering, your Life Points will be almost gone. Even if you defeat one person, if the opponent finds a way to bring your Life Points to zero, won't it be over?"
The biggest problem with one person fighting three is that 4000 LP is hard to match against 12000 LP, especially since each opponent gets to draw five cards. Such a duel isn't that simple.
Even those who strongly believe in the 5DS Team are a bit nervous at this time, even privately questioning 5DS's strategy.
"It's my turn!"
The first move was by Yaiba Todo.
He glanced at his hand cards, and chuckled.
Perfect hand cards!
"Light, although I'm a duelist from the Pendulum Dimension, I've been studying Synchro Summon all along. In my world, I have achieved a quite high rank using Synchro Summon. Even the Duel Academy I'm in has become famous."
He explained his situation with a smile.
"He said he uses Synchro as his dueling style?"
"Ha, clearly from another dimension, yet he uses Synchro?"
"Surely he has seen our dimension's excellent summoning method."
Yaiba Todo couldn't hear the audience's voices, but he wanted to hear what the native from the Synchro Dimension, Light, would say.
"Is that so, that's quite good."
A perfunctory answer.
"I don't care about such things." Light continued to Yaiba Todo, "After all, as a duelist, whether it's Synchro, Xyz, Polymerization, or any other form of summoning, it doesn't matter.
The actual key point is to stick to your choice and believe in what you have faith in.
Yaiba Todo—what you believe in, what you know, is it truly what you understand?"
"Hmph! Nonsense, makes no sense at all." Yaiba Todo quickly displayed a monster onto the field.
"Normal Summon XX-Saber Boggart Knight, activating when this card is successfully summoned. Special Summon 1 LV 4 or lower X-Saber monster from the hand.
"Special Summon LV 3, Tuner Monster XX-Saber Fulhelmknight!"
"Not done yet, when there are two or more X-Saber monsters on your field, this card can be Special Summoned directly from the hand. Special Summon, XX-Saber Faultroll!"
"Whoa! Three monsters Special Summoned at once!"
"And there's a Tuner too!"
"It seems he's learned a lot."
Some audience members were quite satisfied with Yaiba Todo's performance as a student, because although this setup looked fairly standard, he was able to perform Synchro.
"Here it comes, I'm going to perform a Synchro Summon!"
Yaiba Todo raised his hand, and the XX-Saber Fulhelmknight on the field leaped into the air, spun around, and turned into a whirlwind, transforming into a green ring.
Boggart Knight slowly flew over and mixed into it, gradually becoming a transparent model, then starting to change shape.
"Wielding the crossed blades, crossing over the mountain of corpses, Synchro Summon, LV 7!
X-Saber Souza!"
Wearing a tattered red cloak, the swordsman with a seemingly kind smile wielded two swords and struck a pose with an X, bursting into laughter as he appeared.
X-Saber Souza, LV 7, Earth Attribute, Warrior-Type, Attack Power 2500.
Light, riding on the bike, watched the swordsman's flight without any change in emotion.
"Summoning a monster with 2500 Attack Power, enough to rival Stardust Dragon!"
"That guy learned pretty well—"
"It's not over yet! Activate Faultroll's effect, once per turn, targeting one LV 4 or lower monster in your graveyard, Special Summon that monster! Revive, XX-Saber Fulhelmknight!"
The short-sworded swordsman revived once more, and began to spin again.
"Wow, Special Summoning a Tuner Monster used in the Synchro Summon again!"
"Could it be, going for... Continuous Synchro!"
"Yes! Next, prove it with the Continuous Synchro you're best at—I will use the LV 3 Tuner Monster Fulhelmknight and the LV 6 Faultroll to perform tuning!"
Silver Armor, shine! Shatter the hope of those who point their blades at me!"
"Synchro Summon!"
Two golden XXs flickered on the monster's body, and a massive double-edged sword sliced through the air with roaring winds.
"LV 9, XX-Saber Gottoms!"
XX-Saber Gottoms, LV 9, Earth Attribute, Beast Warrior-Type, Attack Power 3100.
"Attack Power 3100?!"
"That's 100 higher than Red Dragon Archfiend!"
Just considering the Attack Power, Gottoms' Attack Power is already quite outstanding.
Light watched the monster with keen interest.
