International Fantasy Society Building, Headquarters.

The piercing alarm sounded throughout the building, red warning lights flashing in the corridors. The building instantly went into a state of alert, and people of various backgrounds quickly moved through the hallways.

From the outside, this seems like just a mere entertainment company that sells cards. But in fact, the interior of this company building is almost akin to an armed fortress, equipped with a variety of defensive weapons, including anti-aircraft guns and missile interception systems.

But now, most of the building’s functions have silently fallen into the hands of invaders from the cosmos. The Light of Destruction unleashed its mental influence talents, controlling most of the staff here.

The elite stationed here usually includes only one or two Professor Card, while individuals like the Pegasus Brothers are often at their own foundation. The semi-retired President Beckas mostly resides on his private island—of course, Beckas also suffered an attack not long ago.

Thus, no one has yet realized that the building is now under the control of light forces.

Merlot stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window on the top floor, expressionlessly gazing outside. At this moment, a man in a white uniform quickly entered the room, reporting urgently.

"Sir, air raid alert."

The man in the white uniform said.

"We are under attack."

"It came quicker than I expected." Merlot said softly, as if talking to himself, "Well, it doesn’t matter. Sooner or later, it was bound to happen..."

He glanced at the card deck equipped with his Duel Disc.

"It’s a pity, just a little closer to perfection... but it should be enough to sweep this world."

He looked up and spoke loudly.

"Deploy them all." Merlot ordered, "Prepare for battle."

"Yes."

"..."

As the jet approached the Illusion Association Building, a grand scene quickly came into view.

Duel Monsters, densely packed Duel Monsters. They filled the sky like an army, suspended in mid-air, surrounding the company building like a fortified deep.

The intention is clear. To enter here, you must first pass through them.

"Looks like they don’t plan to make way."

Joey frowned in the cabin.

"Do we need to take a tough approach?"

"Seems like it."

Judai had long opened his Duel Disc, looking forward to the army ahead.

"This should be quite interesting."

Saying this, his card had already been placed onto the Duel Disc.

"Elemental HERO Neos!"

A pillar of light seemed to penetrate the atmosphere from the depths of the cosmos, descending dominantly. The white Neo Hero’s body charged into the monster army with unstoppable momentum, taking down several opponents with punches and kicks as he passed.

Materializing Duel Monsters in reality is a power Judai unlocked in the final season of the anime, but now, by fusing Overlord’s Power, he has gained this ability earlier.

Even before the fusion with the Overlord, a powerful elf like Neos could materialize in reality. After all, in the Light Association Chapter, Neos went up against Saio himself and even flew to the cosmos to take on satellites.

With Judai’s upgraded powers, the elves’ combat capabilities in reality naturally increase.

At this moment, Neos looked like a War God, rampaging through the enemy’s materialized monster army. Occasionally, lasers shot from his forehead, slicing numerous monsters like blades. Other times, his hands formed a cross, releasing a beam that burst glamorous fireworks in the air...

"True Red-Eyed Black Dragon!"

Joey also summoned his soul’s monster, the True Red Eye. Although Joey himself is mortal, unlike Judai, who has numerous powers. But his True Red Eye is also an elf, and Yugen lent him Kaiba’s military-grade materialization Duel Disc specifically for this battle, giving him the power to materialize the True Red Eye.

While Neos slaughtered wildly in the enemy ranks and attracted most of the firepower, Judai and Joey seized the opportunity to leap out of the cabin and ride on the back of the True Red Eye. The legendary Black Dragon spread its wings and charged at full speed, clearing a path with black flame bullets, heading straight for the outer layer of the building.

Judai summoned his beloved hero, Flame Winged People—also the favorite materialized elf in the original Other Dimension Chapter.

Flame Winged People also flew with its wings, protecting True Red Eye on both sides. Any opponent attempting to block them was intercepted, either kicked away by flame kicks or blown away by flames shot from its dragon-head-like hand.

Crash!

The building’s heavy bulletproof glass turned to nothing under True Red Eye’s black flame bullet breath. The two leaped through the shattered window, rolling to break their fall and stabilizing their footing.

"Satisfying!" Joey couldn’t help but admire the exclusive Kaiba Group Duel Disc in his hands, "We should do this more often."

Successfully breaking through the encirclement, but they both knew it was only just the beginning.

Within seconds of getting up, a man in a white uniform and sunglasses blocked their path ahead, unfolding his Duel Disc.

"You’ll never advance half a step from here." The sunglasses man said in a heavy voice, "Your opponent is me."

Joey and Judai exchanged a glance.

They weren’t surprised. Yugen had already mentioned they might encounter missile, anti-aircraft gun, or other interception weapons during their assault, or defenses formed by materialized monster armies. But overall, these were more intimidating than effective.

Especially now that Judai has acquired Overlord’s Power, surpassing the Extraordinary Level and reaching the top tier of the era; such interference cannot stop him.

After breaking through, duel defenses are bound to follow.

"Just right, my hands are itching, let me handle this." Joey flexed his limbs.

"Are you sure?" Judai glanced at him.

Joey formed an OK gesture.

"Good, I’ll go ahead, be careful." Judai and Joey exchanged a high-five before Judai continued going ahead first.

The sunglasses man did not stop him, allowing Judai to go ahead. After all, others would intercept later.

His duty was the opponent before him.

"Duel!"

[Joey, LP4000]

[Sunglasses Man, LP4000]

"I’ll make the first move, draw a card!" Joey said, "Hey, I’ve had some new ideas recently, let me try them out on you.

I summon ’Legendary Black Stone’!"

[Legendary Black Stone, Attack Power 0]

"Legendary Black Stone’s effect: Tribute this card to Special Summon from the deck a ’True Red Eye’ monster with 7 Stars or less.

Come forth! True Red-Eyed Black Dragon!"

The imposing dragon roar, magma fire pillar shot skyward, transforming into a majestic black dragon’s form.

[True Red-Eyed Black Dragon, Attack Power 2400]

"Legendary True Red Eye." The sunglasses man sneered, "But no matter how famous it is, it’s ultimately just a Seven-Star Mortal Bone." 𝗳𝐫𝚎𝗲𝚠𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝘃𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺

"Not necessarily." Joey said with a mysterious smile.

"Oh?"

"Activate Magic Card ’Black Flame Bullet’! When you have True Red-Eyed Black Dragon on the field, deal the opponent damage equal to the original attack power of that True Red Eye!"

[True Red-Eyed Black Dragon, Attack Power 2400]

The sunglasses man frowned: "Right from the start, you want to inflict damage equal to True Red Eye’s attack power on me..."

"It’s not over yet. Chain Speed Attack Magic ’Continuous Magic’!" Joey said, "Discard all cards in hand, replicate the effect of the recently activated Magic Card, making this card’s effect the same as that Magic Card!"

Sunglasses Man: "?"

"Transformed into the same as the recently used Magic Card... Black Flame Bullet?"

"Which means, you’ll suffer two consecutive Black Flame Bullets..." Joey smiled, "Twice the damage equal to True Red Eye’s attack power!"

Sunglasses Man: "......"

"Nani!?"

The sunglasses man’s eyes widened, causing his sunglasses to slip down the bridge of his nose.

Wait...

My turn hasn’t even arrived yet, I haven’t even played a card?

"Uwaaaahhhh—"

[Sunglasses Man, LP4000→LP0]

Joey completed a quick kill with ease, and he clapped his hands nonchalantly.

"Next?"
