Chapter 297 - Chapter 278: Ace of Light and Darkness

Armed Dragon LV10, summon!

"To break through such a predicament and instantly turn the situation in Chazz's favor..." Asuka murmured.

"Indeed. The one standing there might not be the Chazz we once knew." Mitsuzawa added.

Judai's eyes shone brightly.

I'd love to duel Chazz Lightning again...

"It's not over yet!" Chazz declared, "Activating the cover card, Continuous Trap - Restricted Revival!

Special summon an attack monster from your graveyard with 1000 attack power or less!"

He drew a card from the graveyard.

"I'm reviving the card I just discarded with 'Angel's Charity,' come back, 'Praying Dragon'!"

[Praying Dragon, Attack Power 700]

Also a Dragon Race held by Chazz in the manga.

"The effect of Praying Dragon: sacrificing this card allows me to special summon two 'Dragon Derivatives'!"

Praying Dragon transformed into light particles, which scattered and then reassembled, manifesting two derivative entities similar to the original on either side.

[Dragon Derivative, Attack Power 0] x2

"Then, activate the Continuous Magic 'Netherworld's Treasure Scroll.'

If the upper-level summon is successful using two or more monster sacrifices, draw two cards from the deck."

Chazz took a deep breath.

"I know, although it seems your field is cleared, there must be some mystery hidden in the back row, right?" Chazz said.

Yugen: "..."

"Well, it might not be just in the back row, maybe you're hiding them in your hand... heh, I know, that's the way you are." Chazz snorted, "Always calm and composed, no matter what I do, no matter how aggressively I push, you always appear so confident.

That's what really infuriates people."

But suddenly he changed his tone, raising his voice sharply.

"However! This is about to end now!" Chazz shouted, "Watch carefully, Yugen. This is the most powerful force I've encountered upon returning from Hell, the symbol of my rebirth!

I sacrifice the two 'Praying Dragon Derivatives' on the field!"

A white tornado surged, both Praying Dragon bodies turned into light particles and dispersed in the storm.

"Shine, wings of light! Devour, abyss of darkness! Descend at the border of light and dark—"

Chazz raised the card in his hand, unleashing a limitless storm of light and darkness.

Dragon of Light and Darkness, summon!!!

Half is an extreme purity of light, and the other half as dark as the Netherworld. The contradictory two-color gathers in the body of this dragon, one eye burns like the sun, the other is as deep as night.

[Dragon of Light and Darkness, Attack Power 2800]

"Light and Darkness... what kind of monster is that?" Marufuji Shou exclaimed.

"This divine feeling, this is Chazz's new ace card?" Mitsuzawa murmured.

A holy aura enveloped the entire field, the dreamlike sacred Light and Darkness Dragon. Even without Elf Affinity, everyone present could instinctively feel this monster was extraordinary.

"Kurikuri!" Judai's Feathered Chestnut Ball fluttered forth.

"An elf?" Judai's eyes lit up, "Chazz encountered such a mighty elf huh..."

"Continuous Magic 'Netherworld's Treasure Scroll' effect, with two or more monster sacrifices, if the upper-level summon is successful, draw two cards from the deck."

Chazz drew the cards.

Dragon of Light and Darkness has the powerful ability "Each time the attack power drops by 500 points, negate monster effects, magic, and trap activations," and this effect must be triggered, the owner has no choice over its activation.

However, it can only negate the activation of magic traps. Already existing Continuous Magic using effects, the Dragon of Light and Darkness cannot negate.

Therefore, Chazz could draw cards via the effect of 'Netherworld's Treasure Scroll'.

Yugen smiled: "Though it's a recent encounter with the elf, it seems Chazz is already quite adept at mastering this dragon's ability."

Chazz was startled.

This tone... why does it sound like he knows about Dragon of Light and Darkness's ability?

That brief doubt was quickly suppressed by Chazz.

Well, it doesn't matter even if he knows.

This duel, I've got it in the bag!

"Go!" Chazz bellowed, "Dragon of Light and Darkness, Armed Dragon LV10, direct attack!"

A combined output of five thousand eight hundred!

Chazz held his breath.

This strike will determine victory!

"Sorry Chazz, but I'm not planning on leaving just yet."

Yugen smiled lightly, waving his hand.

"In the instant of your attack declaration, activate the cover card! Trap Card 'Entry Forbidden! No Entry!!'" Yugen said, "All attack position monsters on the field are changed to defense position!"

"As expected." Chazz squinted his eyes.

This turn, if he hadn't drawn 'Mini Courage', he'd be stopped by this trap when he'd attack with Ojama Derivative's self-destruct.

But now...

"Kida!" Chazz raised his hand and shouted, "'Dragon of Light and Darkness' effect! Each time magic, trap, or monster effects are activated, this card must drop attack and defense power by five hundred points each, and negate those effect activations!"

[Dragon of Light and Darkness, Attack Power 2800→Attack Power 2300]

The entire field was instantly shocked upon hearing this effect.

What a terrifying ability this is!

From this description, it's clear that there's no once-per-turn limit on the effect. Even the controller cannot stop its forced activation, including the controller's own card effects being negated by the Dragon of Light and Darkness.

As long as at least one stat of the Dragon of Light and Darkness's attack and defense value is above 500 points, this effect will activate no matter how many times.

"Isn't Yugen already doomed then?" Marufuji Shou was shocked.

No matter the backrow covered traps, hand pits, or grave pits, any means of survival is futile before the Dragon of Light and Darkness. No matter how many lines of defense, they will be nullified.

If Armed Dragon and the Dragon of Light and Darkness's attacks go through, it's Chazz's victory!

"I've won!" Chazz's eyes widened.

He's waited too long for this moment. For this, he endured unimaginable efforts, overcoming this mountain has almost become his obsession.

And now that moment is finally here, it almost feels a bit unreal...

"Sorry Chazz, but I said, I'm not planning to leave just yet." Yugen raised his hand.

"In respect of dealing with a monster like 'Dragon of Light and Darkness,' I'll respond with the most exalted divine force. Activate the trap—

—Divine Protective Shield - Reflective Mirror Force!!!"

From the First Generation Duel King Muto Yuugi to the sixth generation, the Legendary Level Trap transcending across the Yu-Gi-Oh! series, Reflective Mirror Power!
