I Play Yu-Gi-Oh! Card Game - Chapter 978: I Negate Your Negate!
Kumongous, the Sticky String Kaiju was summoned!
A huge spider web has formed above the numerous buildings in the city. A huge spider-like beast was entrenched in the center of the web, like an extremely dangerous predator in the jungle.
[Kumongous, the Sticky String Kaiju, ATK 2400]
“Battle!” Fujino shouted, “Kumongous, the Sticky String Kaiju, attack the ‘Jizukiru, the Star Destroying Kaiju’!”
Compared to the Great Tornado, whose effect could only be activated at the moment of fusion, it was obvious that the Star Destroying Kaiju given to Yuei Vu by Fujino himself was more threatening.
Jizukiru, the Star Destroying Kaiju: When a card or effect is activated that targets 1 card (and no other cards): You can remove 3 Kaiju Counters from anywhere on the field; negate that effect, and if you do, you can destroy 1 card on the field.
The powerful effect of Star Destroying Kaiju was undoubtedly a time bomb and must be resolved first.
But Yuei Vu didn’t let him succeed so easily: “Open the set card: Quick-Play Spell – Mask Change! Send 1 ‘HERO’ monster I control to the Graveyard, then Special Summon 1 ‘Masked HERO’ monster from my Extra Deck with the same Attribute!
I sent the ‘Elemental HERO Great Tornado’ to the graveyard, transform!
The lonely hero puts on the mask of revenge and rides the wind to cut through the evil!
Masked HERO Blast! ! ! ”
The gorgeous special effects of the green whirlwind surrounded the Great Tornado whose attack power had been reduced by half, enveloping his entire body in the storm. Armor was transformed into the whirlwind, and pieces of it were dressed on the hero’s body.
With a golden belt, a red scarf fluttering in the whirlwind, and dark green armor covering his whole body, the Masked HERO made a handsome appearance surrounded by the whirlwind!
[Masked HERO Blast, ATK 2200]
“What’s the point of summoning such a hero?” Fujino frowned.
“Masked HERO Blast’s effect is activated!” Yuei Vu said, “If this card is Special Summoned: I can target 1 face-up monster the opponent controls; its ATK becomes half its current ATK!
I halved the attack power of the ‘Kumongous, the Sticky String Kaiju’! ”
The Masked HERO’s effect was triggered, and he jumped up lightly, spinning rapidly in mid-air! The storm carried leaping green lightning, and the whirlwind was like countless transparent sharp blades slicing toward the Kaiju!
“I see, if the attack power is halved, then my Kaiju’s attack power is lower than yours.” A white light flashed in Fujino’s eyes, “But my Kaiju’s ability is better than your Masked HERO!
The effect of Kumongous, the Sticky String Kaiju is activated!
When the opponent Normal or Special Summons a monster: I can remove 2 Kaiju Counters from anywhere on the field; until the end of the next turn, that monster cannot attack and its effects are negated! ”
Facing the storm created by the Masked HERO, the Kaiju launched a fierce counterattack! It entrenched on the network in the center of the city, opening its mouth, and the milky white spider silk struck like lightning!
The spider threads penetrated the green storm like lightning, binding the Masked HERO’s body one by one. Blast’s body was covered with spider silk and tied up, and he had to stop turning.
The whirlwind also stopped abruptly.
“In this way, the effect of Blast is negated, and the attack power of the Sticky String Kaiju remains the same!” Fujino laughed loudly, “The attack continues! Kumongous, the Sticky String Kaiju, attack ‘Jizukiru, the Star Destroying Kaiju’!”
Kumongous sprayed out spider silk again, but this time the penetrating effect was stronger! Like being pierced through by a white spear, Star Destroying Kaiju was penetrated by one blow.
[Yuei Vu, LP 4000 → LP 3250]
“Then change the ‘Radian Token’ to Defense Position, and I end my turn.”
[Radian Token, ATK 700 → DEF 0]
The Token whose attack power has been reduced to 700 was obviously no longer of much use. Instead, it would become a weak point that was broken through first, so its better to switch to a Defense Position to act as a wall.
Fujino said: “See? This is the power of the Kaiju! Whether it is effect suppression or attack power, it is better than your Masked HERO!”
Yuei Vu ignored him: “My turn, draw!”
“Activate the Spell Card ‘Legacy of a HERO’. If there are 2 or more Level 4 or higher ‘HERO’ monsters in my Graveyard, draw 3 cards!” (manga card)
After looking at the drawn card, he waved his hand, and a card from the graveyard popped out.
“The effect of ‘Fusion Substitute’ in the graveyard is activated! I can banish this card from my GY; return 1 Fusion Monster in my GY to the Extra Deck, then draw 1 card.”
He showed the Fusion Monster card that popped up in the graveyard.
“I return the ‘Elemental HERO Great Tornado’ to the deck and draw a card!”
After drawing the card, Yuei Vu glanced at the cards in his hand, and then his eyes briefly stayed on the Sticky String Kaiju on the opponent’s field.
The effect of Kumongous was quite powerful, and there was no once-per-turn limit. No matter what monster was summoned, they would be silenced by it, maximizing its interference performance.
On Yuei Vu’s side, there was only one “Masked HERO Blast” who had been silenced. Until the end of this turn, his effects were negated and he could not attack. Even if he summoned a new monster, it would follow the footsteps of Blast.
But he still had countermeasures.
“Activate Spell Card – Polymerization!”
After that, Yuei Vu directly showed another card in his hand.
“I fuse the ‘Masked HERO Blast’ on the field and the ‘Masked HERO Gust’ in my hand!
The fusion condition is two ‘Masked HERO’ monsters!
From light to darkness, and from darkness to light! Fusion Summon——
——Contrast HERO Chaos! ! ! ”
Extreme light and darkness intertwined into a black-and-white storm. The whirlwind rose into the sky, and the sharp blade sliced through the storm. The black and white hero slowly fell down, and the blue eyepieces were filled with crystal flashes of light.
[Contrast HERO Chaos, ATK 3000]
The ultimate form of Masked HERO, Contrast HERO Chaos!
“Muda!” Fujino yelled, “At the moment you performed the Fusion Summon, because three cards entered the graveyard, the number of Kaiju Counters in ‘Kyoutou Waterfront’ has reached five again!
At this moment, the effect of Kumongous, the Sticky String Kaiju is activated!
When the opponent Normal or Special Summons a monster: I can remove 2 Kaiju Counters from anywhere on the field; until the end of the next turn, that monster cannot attack and its effects are negated! ”
Spider silk spewed out from the mouth of the Sticky String Kaiju, forming an overwhelming web and pouring towards the chaos hero!
But the chaos hero simply crossed his arms, the white fang knife on the back of his hand flashed, and he easily cut the bunch of spider silk into pieces!
“Nani?” Fujino was shocked, “How could it be?”
“The effect of Contrast HERO Chaos – Once per turn, during either player’s turn: I can target 1 face-up card on the field; negate that target’s effects until the end of this turn.”
Yuei Vu pointed at the huge spider-shaped Kaiju.
“So by using this effect, I negate the effect of ‘Kumongous, the Sticky String Kaiju’!”
