The Chapter get Retranslated

"It's a new HERO, actually..."

"Masked HERO Dark Law, he looks so cool!"

"I wonder what special effect this kind of HERO monster has."

"Since it's a DARK Attribute monster, it must be related to ATK, right?"

"Eh? I actually think, given the characteristics of Jaden Yuki's Deck, this kind of HERO monster won't be so simple."

Beneath the Duel Stage.

The students buzzed with discussions about what effects Dark Law possessed.

But no one noticed.

At the half-open gymnasium door, a figure slowly walked in from outside.

"Is this the place? Oh? The Duel has already begun."

Dressed in a formal silver suit, a young man with short gray hair watched the ongoing Duel on stage with great interest.

If Jaden Yuki were to turn his attention towards the door now, he would surely recognize the identity of this person.

Aster Phoenix.

He was also Jaden Yuki's rival in this Duel League.

"Is that Jaden Yuki? He looks much younger than I imagined."

Aster leaned against the door, a glimmer of light flowing in his eyes.

But... why did Sartorius harbor such great vigilance towards a boy like him?

To the point of asking him to observe this boy's Duel before the Duel League even began.

Sartorius... what exactly is your goal?

...

"Masked HERO... Dark Law."

Looking at Jaden Yuki's monster on the field, Zane Truesdale's expression held a hint of surprise.

But he quickly calmed down and began to ponder his strategy.

"Although I don't know what effects Jaden's monster on the field possesses."

"But his backrow very likely contains 'Royal Decree,' a Trap Card capable of sealing Fusion Summons."

"His Duels usually involve restricting the opponent's field development to disrupt their plans."

Which means...

"My turn, Draw!"

He drew a card from the top of his Deck.

After seeing the text on the card, Zane's eyes narrowed.

"I activate the Spell Card, Polymerization!"

Opening his hand, the light effect of the Polymerization Spell rose on Zane's field.

A multicolored vortex began to coalesce in the sky.

A Polymerization from the starting hand?

Jaden Yuki didn't hesitate to flip his facedown card. "Activate the Continuous Trap Card, Royal Decree!"

"As long as this card exists in the Spell & Trap Zone, all Spell Card effects on the field are negated!"

In that case, Zane's Polymerization effect would be negated by Royal Decree...

"Activate Quick-Play Spell, Mystical Space Typhoon!" Zane seemed to have anticipated this.

"This card allows me to target one Spell/Trap Card on the field and destroy it!"

"Because it's a Quick-Play Spell, it can be chained to a Trap Card!" a student below the stage exclaimed.

A fierce whirlwind swept forth from the card.

It instantly shattered the Trap Card that had risen on Jaden Yuki's field.

"'Royal Decree' was destroyed, which means 'Polymerization' went through the chain?"

"That's right, because for 'Royal Decree' to activate its effect, the prerequisite is that it must exist in the Spell & Trap Zone!"

"And according to the chain rules, the later activation resolves first, allowing Mystical Space Typhoon to destroy Royal Decree!"

"If Zane had used Mystical Space Typhoon first, he would have been countered by Royal Decree!"

"So, Zane first used Polymerization to bait out Jaden Yuki's Royal Decree, and then countered it with Mystical Space Typhoon?"

"Amazing! As expected of the third-year genius!"

Everyone gasped in admiration.

It seemed Zane had a considerable understanding of Jaden Yuki's Deck!

As Polymerization resolved, the figures of two silver Cyber Dragons appeared within the vortex on the field.

"I will Fusion Summon two Cyber Dragons!"

"Fusion Summon! Chimeratech Rampage Dragon!"

Intense electrical currents flashed.

The silver, two-headed Cyber Dragon appeared on Zane's field.

[Chimeratech Rampage Dragon]

[Level: 5]

[ATK: 2100, DEF: 1600]

Cyber Dragon... has arrived?

Jaden Yuki's expression became slightly grave.

"Chimeratech Rampage Dragon, when this card is Fusion Summoned, I can activate its effect, targeting Spell/Trap Cards up to the number of this monster's Fusion Materials!"

"Destroy those Spell/Trap Cards!"

Zane clenched his fist and declared loudly.

"Eh? Destroy Spell/Trap Cards equal to the number of Fusion Materials?"

"Zane used two Cyber Dragons as Fusion Materials just now, so that means he can destroy two Spell/Trap Cards?"

"Currently, Jaden Yuki's field only has Dark Law and two facedown cards, which means..."

Could he really dismantle all of Jaden Yuki's traps?

Everyone was secretly astonished.

If he could indeed do that, he would be the first person since Jaden Yuki's enrollment to clear Jaden Yuki's entire backrow!

"As expected of Zane, his card usage is truly masterful."

"However, this is as far as you go!"

Jaden Yuki smiled and immediately flipped the Trap Card beside him.

"Activate Trap Card! Traptrix Trap Hole Nightmare!"

As his words fell.

The light on the Duel field suddenly dimmed.

To everyone's surprise, Chimeratech Rampage Dragon, which had just appeared on Zane's field, was instantly entangled by countless spiderwebs.

"Hehehe."

A sweet girl's voice slowly echoed in everyone's ears.

Like an enchanting monster, it drew people in irresistibly.

Traptrix!

The girl's face gradually became clear.

And as the girl's face sharpened, Chimeratech Rampage Dragon's body was increasingly constricted by the spiderwebs, gradually tearing into pieces!

"What?" Looking at the disintegrating Chimeratech Rampage Dragon, Zane's face showed a trace of astonishment.

"Traptrix Trap Hole Nightmare, when your opponent Special Summons a monster this turn and activates its effect, you can activate this card."

"Negate that effect's activation, and destroy that monster!"

Jaden Yuki's face revealed a triumphant smile.

Indeed.

It was quite impressive for Zane to be able to break through his Royal Decree.

But sorry.

The shadow realm has no upper limit!

"..."

Zane fell silent.

But soon, he suddenly realized something else.

"Wait, my graveyard..."

He suddenly discovered.

The two Cyber Dragons, one Polymerization, one Mystical Space Typhoon, and one Chimeratech Rampage Dragon that should have been in his graveyard had all miraculously disappeared!
