Yu-Gi-Oh!, the Roar of the Weak

Chapter 188 Gladiator Beast Heracles

"Ha, you actually fought back? That's different from what you said."

"I am also a descendant of researchers from the Wolf Empire. I have the blood of the Wolf Empire, and like you, I share the pride of the Empire."

"very good!"

Gunfight instantly shifted his position and punched the researcher in the chest, sending him flying again.

Then he immediately closed in, raining down attacks on the bird's nest-like hair.

The researcher was beaten like a rag doll

"Master!" the giant roared desperately using its rudimentary vocal organs.

The defeated researcher looked over. "It's alright, 'Titan,' remember my words: oppression is wrong! As long as there is oppression, the path of resistance will never end!"

The 'giant' recalled their previous conversation.

......

"But, Che Dou, you said, you went and oppressed them!"

"That's right, it's right. Gladiators were oppressed by us in the past, and were just playthings for us to enjoy. We also oppressed them, so any oppression is wrong and must be resisted!"

......

Gunslinger walked up to him and said, "Well said!"

Then he grabbed his messy hair with one hand and lifted him up.

“He has already lost to Spartacus, and to my gladiator brothers. I find him amusing, and I suggest sparing his life.”

Spartacus scoffed, "How boring, gunfights."

The gladiators present booed loudly, then all gave a thumbs-down.

(Here's a little-known fact: in ancient Rome, pointing a finger downwards actually meant that the gladiator's life could be spared. However, the idea that pointing a finger downwards meant the person should be killed has become so widespread that it even appeared in the Yu-Gi-Oh! anime A5. So, the author is using the more common interpretation here.)

However, a few gladiators did extend their thumbs-up, surprisingly including the displeased Spartacus, but clearly the majority were pointing their thumbs-down.

"I'm sorry, but the decision made by everyone is final and cannot be disobeyed. This is something you humans taught us."

"Heh, you actually want to learn from the people who oppressed you?"

"That's normal, isn't it?"

"Haha, you're right."

With a loud bang, the world in the eyes of the ancient mechanical giant turned black and white, and black blood spurted from the back of the researcher's head.

If it were a human, it would probably be shedding tears right now, but it doesn't have the ability to cry.

"Master, I... I remember... oppression, no, resistance!"

The scene then shifts again.

......

The bird's nest-headed researcher's two friends came to the dark cell again; he called them Ah Hei and Ah Bai.

They were holding three disassembled monster parts.

“'Giant,' I'm sorry, Zero is dead, but we and you will carry on his legacy. The research on the parts is now in its final stages. You have Zero's memories, and you need to help us!”

"We resist oppression?"

"Yes, let's fight against oppression together."

"it is good!"

They descended via a hidden elevator in the underground cell.

Even though the elevator was hidden behind the wall, the screams of agony could still be heard coming from the cells.

Finally, they arrived at an underground research lab, where all sorts of mechanical weapons were being researched based on it.

They have 'ancient mechanical soldiers' armed with rifles they salvaged from the ruins of past empires.

There are also 'ancient mechanical knights' equipped with the legacy of the heroes of the old empire—lances.

Countless 'ancient gear-driven carts' are shuttling through them, transporting various equipment.

The 'ancient mechanical box', filled with parts, moved between the various mechanical warriors, attaching the parts from its box to them.

At the very center is a monster assembled from various mechanical parts—an ancient mechanical synthetic beast.

"We need to put these parts into the monster's body so it can gain combined power!"

The giant looked at the three part monsters that used to play with him; now they were undoubtedly lifeless.

The giant thought to himself, "Is this oppression? But it doesn't matter, I will resurrect them."

Then the 'Giant' installed the Parts Monster inside the mechanical beast's body.

The mechanical beast's numerous eyes lit up one after another, unleashing a deafening roar.

Ahei and Ahbai exclaimed with delight, "Great! The moment of counterattack has finally arrived!"

......

Screen turn

The ancient mechanical beast broke through the ground and arrived inside the circular arena. Opposite it was Gladiator Beast Gunbuster, who had won many duels and retrieved its equipment. No, it should be called Gladiator Beast Kaiser at this moment!

Caesar looked at the behemoth opposite him with delight. "Excellent! This is the duel I've been longing for! Spartacus, I told you long ago we shouldn't have killed that guy!"

"Shut up, I gave you a thumbs up back then too. Leave this behemoth to me, you can choose your next opponent."

"Bullshit, I want to hit this one."

Neither of them would give way, and they charged together toward the ancient mechanical synthetic beast.

To their surprise, the chimera, now enhanced by the power of the parts, was incredibly powerful and actually sent both of them flying.

"Indeed, this is a formidable foe we haven't seen in a long time!" Spartacus exclaimed excitedly.

Just as Spartacus was about to break the seal and transform into Gladiator Beast George

The king of the circular arena, Gladiator Heracles, descended from the sky and cleaved the chimera in two with a single axe strike.

"What are you doing! Chirac?! He's our opponent!"

"I'm sorry, brother, but this is no longer a duel, it's war!"

Vespasianus, the gladiator beast that had cleaved off the heads of numerous human soldiers with a single strike, declared, "That's right, humanity has raised the banner of rebellion!"

Then, a large number of mechanical soldiers poured out from the bottom of the circular arena.

Those "professional spectators" who usually bullied the audience were terrified and ran away in fear. Che Dou wiped the sweat from his brow and said to everyone...

"Since it's war now, can we use the traps we've hidden in this circular arena?"

Chirac nodded slightly solemnly.

However, when they tried to activate it, they found that the trap could not be started.

"What's going on? Is it those robots' doing?"

"Is it a robot created by imitating the power of God?"

"So what? We Gladiators are meant to hack our way through, one swing at a time!" Spartacus exclaimed excitedly. "If I can defeat a human army once, I can defeat it a second time!"

The valiant gladiator warriors charged towards the robot.

The mechanical warriors charged fearlessly, undaunted by any thought of dread. But Heraclius's power was overwhelming; with a single sweep of his shield, countless ancient mechanical soldiers were reduced to mangled pieces.

At this moment, the 'giant' finally installed the last part onto a giant dragon. The dragon's crimson eyes gleamed, it raised its head and roared, flapping its enormous wings as it flew towards the battlefield.

Ancient mechanical dragons have descended upon the battlefield!
