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

Chapter 18 ace

"I'm only 18. This is my lost card. I'm posting a lost card notice," Di Xing hurriedly said, giving the excuse he had just come up with.

"How pitiful. The spirit of this card must miss you a lot. So, you're not married yet?"

No, I already said I'm only 18.

"Do you have a girlfriend?" Ai Xiao asked, her amber eyes sparkling with a hint of anticipation.

No, no.

Ace pulled Ai Xiao, who was about to stick to Di Xing, back away. Di Xing noticed that Ace's gaze had changed from looking at him to looking at Huang Mao, and he was extremely embarrassed. He quickly tried to make conversation, "Captain Ace, are you a user of the ACE deck?"

Ace nodded

"Yes, my brother is the strongest ACE user."

Ace smiled proudly and said, "You're a duelist too, right? Want to have a match with my brother?"

"Sure!" Looking at the Gundam from before, Di Xing's card-playing addiction had been acting up for a while. "I've been wanting to test my skills against the ACE deck for ages."

"Alright, I don't have anything else to do anyway." Di Xing felt a cold glint in Ace's eyes and couldn't help but shiver.

Because they were on the vehicle, they didn't use duel disks, but instead used the most basic card pads, just like they used to play offline at the card shop. The fire truck drove very smoothly, and that's how another match began.

"I activate the Field Spell Card [Rescue ACE Team Headquarters], Normal Summon [Rescue ACE Team Pulse Firefighter] (FIRE/Warrior Level 3 1500/1500), then Set three cards and end this turn."

"Draw a card during my turn to Normal Summon [Fallen Warrior]. Activate [Fallen Warrior's] Special Effect to send one Zombie monster from my Deck to the Graveyard."

"At that moment, I activated the second effect of Pulse Firefighter. When my opponent activates the effect of a monster on the field, I Tribute this card on the field and Special Summon 1 Machine-Type Ace Monster from my Deck. I then Special Summon 'Rescue Ace Team Fire Hydrant' (FIRE/Machine, Level 2, 0/0) in Defense Position."

"What I sent to the cemetery was [Roasted Bone King]."

"I activate the Trap Card [E Extinguish!] to destroy your [Fallen Warrior]. Based on the effect of E Extinguish, if I control [Rescue Ace Team Fire Hydrant], you cannot activate the effect of [Fallen Warrior] this turn."

"However, the effect of [Bone King] will still activate, adding [Bone Prince] and [Bone Princess] from the deck to the hand, then discarding [Bone Prince] from the hand, and sending the Bone couple from the deck to the graveyard."

"Activating the Quick-Play Spell Card [A Alert!] allows me to add one Ace Monster from my Graveyard to my hand. Since I have [Rescue Ace Team Fire Hydrant] on my field, I can add one Ace Monster from my Deck to my hand instead."

"I chose the card 'Rescue ACE Team Double Pulse Cannon Firefighter,' then I activated the Trap Card 'R-Boost!', which increases the ATK and DEF of 'Rescue ACE Team Fire Hydrant' by 1500, makes it unaffected by your monster effects, and grants it one immunity to battle destruction. Then I banished 'R-Boost!' from my Graveyard and set 'A-Alert!' back onto the field."

"As expected of an ACE, his search ability and ability to act during the opponent's turn are terrifying. I'll set three cards to end this turn."

"My turn, draw a card. I activate the Spell Card [A Alert!], and then select a second [Rescue ACE Team Double Pulse Cannon Firefighter] to add to my hand."

“我发动【救援ACE队总部】的 3 效果，1回合1次，从自己墓地的卡以及除外的自己的卡之中以4张「救援ACE队」卡为对象发动。那些卡回到卡组洗切。然后我再抽1张卡”

"Activate the effect of [Rescue ACE Team Fire Hydrant] again, and add a third [Rescue ACE Team Double Pulse Cannon Firefighter] from your deck to your hand."

"Activating the second effect of [Rescue ACE Team Headquarters], I can only Normal Summon one ACE Monster at a time, in addition to my Normal Summon. I Normal Summon [Rescue ACE Team Double Pulse Cannon Firefighter] (Fire/Warrior Level 4 1800/1800)"

"The first effect of 【Rescue ACE Team Double Pulse Cannon Firefighter】 activates, adding one ACE Trap Card from the Deck to your hand. Mine is 【C Control!】."

"I'll then Normal Summon [Rescue ACE Team Double Pulse Cannon Firefighter], and draw another [C Control!] card. I'll set two cards, and both [Rescue ACE Team Double Pulse Cannon Firefighter] cards will launch a direct attack on you."

"I discard [White Bone Princess], all monsters on the field lose ATK and DEF equal to their Level x 300." Both [Rescue Ace Team Double Pulse Cannon Firefighter] cards had their ATK reduced to 600, dealing only 1200 damage to Di Xing.

"I'll draw another card and end this round." Ace ended his turn, continuing to stare at Di Xing as if he wanted to stab him. Di Xing couldn't help but shiver.

"My turn, I draw a card. I Normal Summon [Zombie Lord] and activate its effect: Discard 1 monster from my hand to revive 1 Level 4 or lower Zombie monster from my Graveyard."

"I activate [C Control!], nullifying the effects of your [Zombie Lord]."

"But I still have to pay the price; what I discarded was the horse-headed demon."

"Then I activate Resurrection of the Dead. This card can select one Zombie monster in the Graveyard and revive it by banishing one of its name cards from the Deck."

"I choose [Bone Roast King] because [Bone Roast King] is in the Graveyard, and its card name is considered [Bone]. So I banish [Bone] from my Deck, Special Summon [Bone Roast King], and then I set a Link Mark on [Bone Roast King] to Link Summon [Sacrifice Demon Anima]."

"Wait a minute, I'll activate my second [C Control!] to negate your Bone Roast King's special effect. Also, because I have [Rescue Ace Team Fire Hydrant] on my field, your Bone Roast King can't be used as material for Fusion, Synchro, Xyz, or Link Summoning."

"What? Even Link Summoning doesn't work? Damn it! I'll activate the effect of [Horse-Headed Demon] in the Graveyard, banishing [Horse-Headed Demon] to revive the Bone Princess. When the Bone Princess is Special Summoned, I'll send one Bone Prince from my Deck to the Graveyard. The Bone Prince's effect will activate, sending the Bone Princess and her husband to the Graveyard, and then I'll end this turn."

"My turn, I draw a card and activate [E Extinguish!] to destroy your Bone Princess. Because there is [Rescue ACE Team Fire Hydrant] on the field, the effect of Bone Princess is negated. Then, I activate the effect of [Rescue ACE Team Fire Hydrant] to add [Rescue ACE Team Fire Controller] from my Deck to my hand. Next, I activate the special effect of the card [Rescue ACE Team Turbulent Fire Truck] in my hand, banishing two ACE cards from my Graveyard, and Special Summon..."

"Wait!" Di Xing suddenly shouted.

"What, you have an effect you want to activate?" Ace asked suspiciously.

"You just summon your deck's ace card so easily? Without even reciting a summoning incantation?"
