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

Chapter 96 Pendulum Summoning

Round 2

"My turn, draw a card." Di Xing drew a card.

"Wait a minute, during your Standby Phase, the Spell Card effect of 'Sound Warrior Rock Band' in the Pendulum Zone activates. I can add one face-up Pendulum Monster from my Extra Deck to my hand. I'm adding Sound Warrior 'Sound Warrior Guitarist' to my hand."

"Aren't you going to face down your cards?" Di Xing asked疑惑地, at this moment all of Ge Yi'ao's cards in the back row were face up.

"Hmph, you'll have to defeat these powerful monsters of mine first."

"Is that so? I activate the Spell Card [Lightning Storm]. If I have no cards on my field, I can choose to destroy all your Attack Position monsters or all your Spell & Trap Cards. Let's send all your proud monsters to the Graveyard!"

A bolt of lightning swept across the field, destroying both of Ge Yi'ao's "Sound Warriors Rock Band" instruments.

"Have you forgotten? Pendulum monsters aren't sent to the graveyard when they're destroyed."

Instead of being sent to the graveyard, one of the two [Sound Warrior Rock Band] cards moved to the top of the Extra Deck, while the other activated its 3rd effect and was placed in the Pendulum Zone.

"So what? I Normal Summon [Minotaur], activate its effect to send one Zombie monster from my Deck to the Graveyard. The one I sent to the Graveyard is [Bone Roast King]. [Bone Roast King]'s effect is to take two and give one free. The ones I added to my hand are [Bone Prince] and [Bone Lord]. I discard [Bone Prince], and its effect sends the Bone Couple to the Graveyard."

"Then I discarded the [Bone Lord] from my hand. There were 5 Bone Lords in the graveyard, so I sent 5 cards to the graveyard."

Five cards were sent to the Graveyard, including one [Bone Prince]. The Bone Princess and her husband were then sent to the Graveyard as well. "I activate [Resurrection], reviving the [Bone Princess] in the Graveyard by banishing [Bone Princess] from the Deck."

"When Special Summoning [Bone Princess], send [Bone Prince] from your Deck to the Graveyard, then send the Bone Couple to the Graveyard."

There are 11 skeletons in the graveyard, including one Skeleton King, but no Horse-Headed Demons.

"Damn it! Don't I have enough resurrection cards?" But Di Xing glanced at the crowd who had already started dueling, and knew he had to finish quickly. "I'll face down two cards." This time, Di Xing had learned his lesson and faced down the cards first.

"Then I banished the [Bone Lord] from the graveyard and resurrected the [Bone King] from the graveyard."

White Bone King's attack power

Pendulum Monsters should be considered Spell Cards in the Pendulum Zone, which should be correct.

"【Bone King】, direct attack."

"Hmph, when I activate the second effect of [Sound Warrior Rock Band] as a Spell Card, it activates when an opponent's monster attacks, destroying both this card and that monster."

"What? You're not a Quick-Play Spell Card, so how can you activate it during my turn?" Di Xing complained.

"That's the charm of Pendulum Spell Cards!"

"But you don't have any monsters left on the field, so I'll continue attacking with [Bone Princess] and [Minotaur]." LP 8000-1700-1600=4700

"I'll end this round," Di Xing said unwillingly, having failed to finish the battle in one round.

Round 3

"Looks like you don't understand the charm of rock and roll."

"But you're clearly a rapper, okay?"

“Music is interconnected,” Ge Yi’ao argued. “During my turn, I draw a card. During my Standby Phase, the effect of the Pendulum Zone card [Sound Warrior Rock Band] activates, and I add [Sound Warrior Guitarist] from my Extra Deck to my hand.”

场地指示物10+1=11，彩排指示物9+1=10

"I activate the effect of [Rehearsal] to remove three counters from this card and add [Sound Warrior Microphone] from my Deck to my hand."

Rehearsal markers 10-3=7

I Normal Summon Sound Warrior [Sound Warrior Guitarist]. When this card is successfully Summoned, you can revive one Sound Warrior from your Graveyard. I revive [Sound Warrior Synthesizer].

场地指示物11+1=12，彩排指示物7+1=8

"There were no adjustments made to either of these monsters?"

"That's right, so that's what I'll do. I'll set connection marker arrows on the [Sound Warrior Guitarist] and [Sound Warrior Synthesizer], confirm the connection, and summon the [Platinum Parts]."

"Link Summoning? Masaka!? (Could it be)"

"That's right, it's that Masaka!"

"I will now set the [Sound Warrior Microphone] card in my hand to the left pendulum area, with the left side of the [Sound Warrior Microphone] set to 1 and the right side of the [Sound Warrior Rock Band] set to 10."

The scale is set, the second pendulum summon is about to begin!

"Let's rock out again! Sound waves! Fierce sound warriors, let's unleash our strongest voice in these most beautiful sound waves!"

"Rise, my ace! [Sound Warriors Rock Band]"

As another massive sonic wave swept across the arena, the two [Sound Warriors Rock Band] were revived in the linked area indicated by the [Platinum Parts] arrow. Additionally, [Sound Warrior Microphone] and [Sound Warrior Guitarist] were also revived, filling all of Ge Yi'ao's monster zones.

"[Sound Warrior Rock Band] Special Summon successful! I've added [Sound Warrior Guitarist] from my Extra Deck to my hand."

"What's going on? Didn't you say that Pendulum Monsters in the Extra Deck could only be Special Summoned from the Extra Monster Zone?" Li Fei Hua Yue asked, puzzled by what she saw.

"That's right, but the area indicated by the monster arrow also counts as an extra monster area."

"Okay, this knowledge is generally unnecessary for most decks."

Has this world not followed the rules of the masters? Di Xing couldn't help but wonder.

"I activate the 3rd effect of [Sound Amplifier], banishing seven Sound Counters on the field, and banishing the same number of Sound Warrior monsters on your field as your opponent's cards on the field or in their Graveyard. I banish five Skeletons from your Graveyard."

Rehearsal markers 9-7=2

"Do~Re~Mi~Fa~Sol~La~Si~" Ge Yiao swept the strings sharply, and seven notes flew out. Then, all the sound warriors on the field began to play, and five energy waves rushed towards Di Xing's graveyard. Five Bone Cards, including the Bone King, were banished.

“然后我把三星的【音响战士 吉他乐手】和五星的【音响战士 麦克风】调星，3+5=8，同调召唤【摆式特急 同行列车】（地/机械 8星 2800/1600）”

"When the Synchro Summon of the Train is successful, you can Special Summon 1 Level 4 or lower Pendulum Monster from your Deck or Extra Deck. Then Special Summon 'Sound Warrior Guitarist', and Level Up both the 3-star 'Sound Warrior Guitarist' and 'Sound Warrior Guitarist', making 3+3=6, and Synchro Summon 'Battle Wheel'."

【Battle Wheel】? Is it a powerful monster that restricts attack targets and adds half the ATK of all monsters on your field? Is it to defend against my 【White Bone King】's attack?

"Attack you with all the monsters on my field."

"Don't even think about it! I activate my face-down card [Intimidating Roar], you cannot declare an attack this turn."

"So it really is a life-saving card? I'll end this round."
