# Chapter 159: Abyss Actors' Performance (Part 1)
"Hey, it's your turn," Shingo Sawatari said, looking at DC369, who had just caught up.
"You damned kid, your show ends here!" DC369 declared. He was clearly annoyed, having been outmaneuvered by an obvious amateur like Shingo Sawatari in his specialty, D-Wheel driving. Before drawing his card, he spoke with a fierce scowl.
"My Turn! Draw!"
"Attack Position Summon! Yokozuna Dog!"
"When this card is successfully Summoned, I activate its effect! From my hand, I Special Summon one Tuner Monster!"
"Appear! Tuner Monster, Jutte Lord!"
"I Tune Level 2 Jutte Lord with Level 1 Yokozuna Dog!"
[2+1=3]
"Rush forth immediately! Let all evil in this world have no place to hide! Synchro Summon! Level 3! Gouyo Defender!"
Beside DC369's D-Wheel, a White-faced Constable, shield in one hand and baton in the other, descended.
Gouyo Defender ATK: 1000
"What's this? After all that effort, it's just a Monster with 1000 Attack Points?" Shingo Sawatari said. "You need to perk up, otherwise, with just my solo performance, the Audience will get bored."
DC369 ignored Shingo Sawatari's taunt and continued his Combo: "Gouyo Defender's effect activates!"
"Once per turn, if the only monsters on my field are Warrior-Type EARTH Attribute Synchro Monsters, I can Special Summon one 'Gouyo Defender' from my Extra Deck."
"Appear! Second Gouyo Defender!"
"The second Gouyo Defender's effect activates! From my Extra Deck, I Special Summon a third Gouyo Defender!"
At this point, on DC369's field, three shield-wielding constables appeared neatly lined up.
"Is this it? The field-filling Defensive Formation commonly used by Security!" the Female Commentator said. "However, if it's just for defense, there's no way to break through Sawatari's defense line!"
"Spell Card, Fusion activate!" But at that moment, DC369 suddenly pulled out a card no one expected.
"I send two Gouyo Defenders from my field to the graveyard as Fusion Material! Fusion Summon!"
A blue-purple fusion vortex slowly emerged behind DC369.
The two shield-wielding constables exchanged a glance before leaping into it.
"It's a Fusion Summon?" the Female Commentator exclaimed in surprise. She had commentated hundreds of duels involving Security Officers, but a Fusion Summon appearing in the hands of a Security member was an unprecedented first.
"Emperor, seated high upon the throne! Descend now, and with the breath of a king, let the evils of this world have no place to hide!" DC369 shouted. From the fusion vortex behind him, a white-faced Emperor, seated upon a throne, slowly appeared.
"Fusion Summon! Level 10! Gouyo Emperor!"
As DC369's words fell, the yellow-robed monarch slowly rose from the throne, glanced down at the monsters on the field, then reseated himself on the throne.
Gouyo Emperor ATK: 3300
"Behold! This is the new power I obtained from Lord Roger!" DC369 said with a satisfied smile, looking at his masterpiece.
"Truly astonishing! Security Officers, who usually battle with Synchro Summons, are now able to perform Fusion Summons with such proficiency!"
Meanwhile, in the Duelist lounge.
Kaito and Shun Kurosaki frowned as they looked at the fusion monster.
At the Revolutionary Army's Battalion, Serena, having packed her belongings, rushed over. Upon seeing the monster's majestic appearance, she spoke bluntly: "That's a Duel Academy's Fusion Summon."
"It seems you weren't wrong; people from the Fusion Dimension have infiltrated Security," Kiryu said, frowning at the news.
...
"Gouyo Emperor has an effect: when it battle destroys an opponent's monster and sends it to the graveyard, it can Special Summon that destroyed monster to your field, and then grants this effect to the monster it takes control of," DC369 said with full confidence.
"That means, after Gouyo Emperor battle destroys your Abyss Actor - Superstar, it can take control of Superstar, then use Superstar to destroy your other monster, taking its control as well. All three of your monsters will betray you. The battle damage will be 800 + 800 + 200 + 1500, a total of 3,300 battle damage. Plus, with my other Gouyo Defender on the field with 1000 attack points..."
DC369 didn't finish his sentence, but the Female Commentator already reacted: "Is it an OTK? What a powerful monster!"
"Battle!" DC369 waved his hand. Gouyo Emperor attacks Abyss Actor - Superstar!
The Emperor on the throne waved its hand, and countless phantoms of white-faced constables rushed towards Superstar beside Shingo Sawatari.
Abyss Actor - Superstar is destroyed!
Sawatari Shingo LP: 4500 → 3700
"Gouyo Emperor's effect activates!" DC369 said with full confidence. The Emperor on the throne also stood up, as if awaiting the enemy's surrender.
However, unexpectedly, nothing happened.
"What a terrifying monster effect, to have the ability to make monsters betray one after another," Shingo Sawatari slowly began, while everyone was still wondering, "However, that all depends on the battle-destroyed monster entering the graveyard. But unfortunately, Pendulum Monsters don't go to the graveyard when destroyed; they go to the Extra Deck."
"Nani?" DC369 frowned.
"Sorry, your OTK plan failed at the very first step," Shingo Sawatari said with a flashy expression. "And, Abyss Actor - Leading Lady's effect activates! Once per turn, when you or your opponent takes battle damage, you can target one face-up position monster on your opponent's field; that monster's attack points decrease by the amount of that battle damage."
The demon girl beside Shingo Sawatari let out bell-like peals of laughter, waving and blowing a kiss towards Gouyo Emperor on the throne. The emperor's aura on the throne immediately withered.
Gouyo Emperor ATK: 3300 → 2500
"Then, I Set two cards and end my turn." DC369, whose OTK had failed, could only grit his teeth and end his turn.
"At this moment, Trap Card, Abyss Actors' Backstage Entry's effect activates! If you have two 'Abyss Actors' cards in your Pendulum Zone, you can select two 'Abyss Actors' Pendulum Monsters with different names from your Deck and add them to your Extra Deck, face-up."
"My Turn! Draw!" After Shingo Sawatari drew a card, he snapped his fingers, and the stadium lights dimmed, with a spotlight shining on him.
"Ladies and gentlemen!" Shingo Sawatari, bathed in the spotlight, spread his arms and waved to the audience. "The play I'm about to present is the Abyss Actors' Tyrant Extermination Battle!"
Shingo Sawatari pointed at DC369's Gouyo Emperor: "Receive your judgment! Evil Tyrant!"
"Abyss Actor - Reckless Rookie's Pendulum Effect activates! Once per turn, you can target one 'Abyss Actors' card in your other Pendulum Zone; that card's Pendulum Scale becomes 9 until the end of this turn!"
Abyss Actor - Mature Leading Actress Scale: 0 → 9
"This way, I can Pendulum Summon monsters from Level 3 to 8 simultaneously!"
"Appear! My humble servants!"
