Kaiba has fused his three "Blue-Eyes White Dragons" into the "Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon", the monster with the highest ATK, and Dark Yugi only has monsters with 1500 or less ATK to fight it with.

Featured Duel: Dark Yugi vs. Seto KaibaEdit

Duel continues from the previous chapter.

This Duel uses Expert Rules. Players draw until they have five cards in their hand during their Draw Phase, and all cards in their hand are Set in their Duel Disk. Players can control one monster in their Duel Disk's main stage, which can be placed in Attack Position or Defense Position, and four cards in their sub-stages. Cards in the sub-stages are not revealed to the opponent, and monsters in the sub-stages are considered to be in Attack Position. Spell and Trap Cards in the sub-stages can be attacked and destroyed by the opponent.

Dark Yugi has 100 Life Points and controls "Giant Soldier of Stone" (1300/2000) in Defense Position, and has "Mammoth Graveyard", "Monster Recovery", and "Multiply". Kaiba has 900 Life Points and has just activated "Polymerization", fusing his three "Blue-Eyes White Dragons", and has "Negate Attack" in his hand. The effect of "Crush Card" is applying to Dark Yugi, destroying all monsters on his field and in his hand with more than 1500 original ATK.

Turn 18: Kaiba
Kaiba Fusion Summons "Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon" (4500/???) in Attack Position. "Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon" attacks and destroys "Monster Recovery".

Turn 19: Dark Yugi
Dark Yugi draws "Polymerization" and "Living Arrow".

Turn 20: Kaiba
"Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon" attacks and destroys "Giant Soldier of Stone".

Turn 21: Dark Yugi
Dark Yugi draws "Kuriboh". Dark Yugi Normal Summons "Kuriboh" (300/200) in Attack Position. Dark Yugi activates the Spell Card "Multiply", choosing a monster with 500 or less ATK and multiplying it. He chooses to multiply the 300 ATK "Kuriboh" endlessly.

Turn 22: Kaiba
"Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon" attacks "Kuriboh", but the effect of "Kuriboh" activates, destroying itself. The effect of "Multiply" continues to multiply "Kuriboh".

Turn 23: Dark Yugi
Dark Yugi activates the Spell Card "Living Arrow", allowing him to activate a Spell Card using his opponent's monsters and his own. Dark Yugi activates the Spell Card "Polymerization", Fusion Summoning a monster. He fuses "Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon" with "Mammoth Graveyard", but since "Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon" is a LIGHT monster and "Mammoth Graveyard" is a DARK Zombie-Type monster, the fusion fails.

Duel continues in the next chapter.
