Episode 180: A Duel with Dartz (4)

At the duel, Dartz introduces them to Orichalcos Tritos, the 3rd level of the Seal of Orichalcos and gains another 3000 LPs due to Orichalcos Deuteros' effect, raising his score up to 18,500. Next he uses Orichalcos Malevolence's effect to put Kaiba's Different Dimension Dragon to Attack Mode. He attacks but Kaiba activates Shrink yet the card is negated thanks to Orichalcos Tritos' effect. He resumes his attack but Yami activates Ambush Shield to tribute his Big Shield Gardna and add its DEF to Kaiba's DDD, raising DDD's ATK to 4000. Kaiba counterattacks and destroys OM but Dartz's Orichalcos Kyutora absorbs the Battle Damage by its effect. As a result, Yami is defenseless so he attacks Yami directly with the four knights but Pegasus' attack is blocked as Yami uses his Duel Disk to defend himself and Pegasus asks about the card he gave him, which he adds unlocks the Legendary Dragons.

Yami remembers the moment he got that special card and the reaction afterwards. Pegasus then follows orders to attack and Yami's score is brought down to 1500 by the attacks. Dartz sets 1 card to end his turn. Kaiba knows he can't let Dartz win, not after everything he's been put through by him, recalling Alister's words and what Dartz said actually happened. Kaiba then draws and plays his Legendary Dragon card, stating that he always gets exactly what he needs when he loses (except against Yami that is). Yami confirms that his face down card is Mirror Force so Kaiba sends it and Critas to the Graveyard for Mirror Force Dragon (2800) in Attack Mode. Despite Yami's protest, Kaiba attacks Mirror Knight Pegasus, and MKP reflects back the attack and MFD absorbs it to release it on all four knights and Kyutora, destroying them after Kyutora absorbs all the damage and Yami learning that his friends are safe.

However, Kyutora has another ability. It evolves when destroyed and releases Orichalcos Shunoros (????) in Attack Mode whose ATK equals the Battle Damage Kyutora absorbed, leaving it with 20,000. Next Dartz uses its effect to release Orichalcos Dexia and Orichalcos Aristeros (0000 x2) in Attack Mode, gaining the 500 ATK to 500 each from the Seal of Orichalcos. (The real Shunoros gains 1000 ATK per monster your opponent controls and is Special Summoned when one of your Normal Monsters is destroyed by battle. It also prevents Level 4 or less Normal Monsters from being destroyed by card effects and is one monster.) Dexia always has 300 more ATK than the monster it battles with while Aristeros becomes the attack target and has 300 more DEF than the ATK of the other monster.

Next, Dartz activates Martyr Curse, forcing one of his monsters to battle one of Yami or Kaiba's monsters and is left to fight against Mirror Force Dragon but the card also cancels out its effects. His attack destroys MFD and defeats Kaiba but not before Kaiba activates Wish of Final Effort, giving Yami LPs equal to MFD's ATK, raising his score to 4300. (A card called Option Hunter in the CG has this effect.) Yami runs to Kaiba's side, catching him as he falls and is advised not to screw up as Kaiba has worked hard for this, then the Seal takes Kaiba's soul and puts it on the wall. Dartz doesn't need the rest so Kaiba's body is tossed outside the duel area and Mokuba tries in vain to get through. Suddenly the room shakes and lightning flashes outside as Dartz explains that The Great Leviathan is almost ready, even making an appearance in the room and takes their souls as well (or at least knocks them out as there's no indication yet that proves otherwise).

Dartz assures Yami that his friends are fine as he doesn't need weak souls and adds that they met 5000 years ago, sharing the story of what happened at that time. Dartz saw Yami conjure up the shadows with his own eyes and soon Yami will get what he deserves when he feeds Yami to The Great Leviathan and complete what he started centuries ago!
