The roar of the Kaiju swept across the entire field. A powerful vortex enveloped the field.

Jaden'sĀ Kumongous, the Sticky String Kaiju, and Chazz'sĀ Revived ZombieĀ were simultaneously caught in this massive vortex.

"Wh-what's going on!" Chazz Princeton looked at the scene before him in terror.

Boom!

The explosion generated dense dust and smoke, instantly obscuring everyone's vision.

"What happened? I can't see anything on the field anymore!"

"What's going on, hey, what's the situation on the field now?"

"I don't know!"

The audience below gasped repeatedly. Alexis Rhodes and Blair Flannigan also watched the situation on stage nervously.

"Just now, Jaden Yuki activated a Spell Card, right?" Alexis raised her arm to block the dust and smoke spraying from the stage, frowning.

"Y-yes, that's right. That Spell Card seemed to Special Summon some monster from the Deck," Blair nodded, nervously watching the situation on stage.

Special Summon a monster...

Alexis looked at the Duel Disk.

She saw the dust and smoke on the Duel Disk gradually dissipating. Two tall figures appeared before the audience.

"Roar!"

On Chazz's field, the roar of a giant dragon echoed. Accompanied by fierce lightning, a white, three-headed giant dragon appeared on Chazz's field.

And on Jaden Yuki's field, a black demon with two large antennae on its forehead also appeared.

The two monsters roared at each other, their terrifying presence sending chills down one's spine.

[Thunder King, the Lightningstrike Kaiju]

[Level: 9]

[ATK: 3300, DEF: 2100]

[Radian, the Multidimensional Kaiju]

[Level: 7]

[ATK: 2800, DEF: 2500]

"Tw-two new Kaiju again!"

"Holy moly, what in the world is going on with this Jaden Yuki's Deck!"

"What about the 'heroes' you talked about? Which hero looks like that!"

The audience below was a little frantic. Everyone said Jaden Yuki was the user of the "Strongest Heroes." But which hero had a monster face?

"Huh? Wait a minute, did I see wrong?" Suddenly, Blair blinked her large eyes, looking at the positions of the two monsters on the stage with some confusion. "It seems the monster on Jaden's field has less ATK than the monster on the opponent's field, right?"

Blair Flannigan's words made Alexis pause. She quickly looked at the stage and found that it was indeed as Blair Flannigan said. The more powerful Thunder King, the Lightningstrike Kaiju, was actually on Chazz's field!

"Hey, hey, Jaden Yuki made a mistake, didn't he?"

"Exactly! How come the Special Summoned monster with higher ATK is on the opponent's field?"

"This is a Duel Genius? Can he even make such a low-level mistake?"

Audience members below also gradually discovered the problem.

Interrupted Kaiju Slumber. This card can destroy all monsters on the field and Special Summon two Kaiju monsters to both players' fields. And the order in which the monsters appear is chosen by the card's activator.

In other words, this was entirely Jaden Yuki's personal mistake, which resulted in the monster with higher ATK appearing on the opponent's field!

"Ha... hahahaha!" Chazz gradually recovered from his shock. He laughed triumphantly. He, who had been on the verge of despair, now felt as if he could turn the tables.

"What a shame, Jaden Yuki! I can't believe you made such a low-level mistake! Summoning a monster with higher ATK to my field!"

"I'll gladly accept this monster with 3300 ATK!" Chazz Princeton clenched his fists tightly, a sinister smile appearing on his face.

This monster will be the foreshadowing of your defeat, Jaden Yuki!

"Ah, yes." Jaden Yuki shrugged.

"Furthermore, due to the effect of 'Interrupted Kaiju Slumber', the Special Summoned Kaiju monsters must be in Attack Position, and if they can attack, they must declare an attack."

"In other words, whether it's me or you, as long as there's a Kaiju on the field, we must declare an attack." Jaden Yuki emphasized again.

"So what! Your 'Radian' on the field has clearly lower ATK than my 'Thunder King'!" Chazz frowned. "Even if you attack, your monster will be destroyed!"

"Hmm, not bad." Jaden Yuki nodded, and with a wave of his hand, "So, I activate my set card."

"Continuous Trap,Ā Kaiju Capture Mission!"

"Once per turn, you can change one 'Kaiju' monster on the field to face-down Defense Position! And place one Kaiju Counter on this card!"

A red trap card appeared on the field. Miniature tanks appeared on the field. Like special forces tanks from a tokusatsu show, they instantly surrounded the giant monster Radian.

Boom boom boom.

Several cannon shots sounded. Radian's body quickly shrank into a ball, transforming into a card and setting itself face-down on the field.

"Huh? Why did it turn face-down Defense Position? Didn't the Spell Card's effect say that monsters on the field cannot change their battle positions?" Blair Flannigan asked with a puzzled expression.

Alexis Rhodes explained with a bitter smile, "The effect that prevents changing battle positions restricts the player themselves. The player cannot change the battle position of their monsters."

"But if you use a card's effect, you can change a monster's battle position. Jaden Yuki also used this point to bypass the mandatory Battle Phase."

"Huh? Is that how it works?" Blair Flannigan suddenly understood. She never expected that Duel Monsters had so many complex rules.

"Even if that's the case, so what? Radian's DEF is only 2500. Next turn, I can use Thunder King to destroy your monster!" Chazz scoffed, a cold sneer playing on his lips. "You're just delaying your defeat."

"Oh, is that so?" Jaden Yuki smiled faintly. "Don't forget, I have another set card on my field."

"Hmm?" Chazz Princeton paused, looking at the other set card next to Jaden Yuki.

This card...

"I activate my Trap Card!Ā Magical Cylinders!"

"From my Deck or Graveyard, choose oneĀ Magic CylinderĀ and set it on your field!"

Jaden Yuki's lips curled into a sinister smile. In Chazz's despairing gaze, he set aĀ Magic CylinderĀ from his Deck onto the field.

"Chazz-kun, next turn, you must attack me."

Jaden Yuki smiled, and pressed the "End Turn" button. "My turn ends."

As Jaden Yuki's turn ended. That moment, everyone fell silent.

...

PS: This Deck is quite a sinister Magic Cylinder Kaiju Deck. You can also pair it with Skill Drain, Macro Cosmos, and Snake Rain. The success rate isn't low. Guaranteed to make your opponent enjoy the duel.
