Who Let Him Play Yu-Gi-Oh! novel Chapter 870

Chapter 870: Chapter 870: Blue-Eyes–Class Power

Mystic Tomato, destroyed!

The Venom Snake coiled around the tomato, its sharp fangs sinking in with a bite. Mystic Tomato burst apart with a pop—but immediately after, a beam of golden light shot out from Kira’s deck.

"From my deck, I Special Summon in Attack Position a DARK monster with 1500 or less ATK—’Witch of the Black Forest.’"

A witch in a black robe appeared on the field, eyes gently closed, long purple hair cascading softly down.

[Witch of the Black Forest, ATK 1100]

Viper said, "I set one card. My turn ends."

"Then it’s my turn. Draw." Kira said, "I Normal Summon ’Don Zaloog.’"

The one-eyed bandit leader’s card flashed, and the monster emerged from the golden glow released by the card. He crouched low, cowboy-style, twirling his revolver with practiced flair, then struck a cool pose as he landed.

[Don Zaloog, ATK 1400]

"Zaloog, attack ’Venom Snake.’"

"Heh, leave it to me!"

Zaloog puffed his chest and strode forward. His revolver barked twice—bang, bang! The bullets pierced the Venom Snake’s thick scales, and it burst apart with a snap.

[Viper, LP 4000 → LP 3800]

"Barely a scratch," Viper snapped. "I activate my set card, the Trap Card ’Snake Whistle’! This can only be activated when a Reptile monster you control is destroyed. Special Summon a Level 4 or lower Reptile from your Deck."

Viper pulled out his deck, spread it, and searched for a card.

"I Special Summon ’Venom Cobra’!"

He slapped the card onto his Duel Disk. A massive cobra covered in hard scales appeared on his field, its body coiled into a mound—when it lowered itself, it almost looked like a fortress.

[Venom Cobra, DEF 2000]

Adrian adjusted his glasses from the side. "Professor Viper’s Duel Disk is an older model—you have to manually search and shuffle."

Viper shot him a sidelong glance, puzzled. "So what?"

"Nothing," Adrian smiled. "The new models are better."

A lesson paid in blood.

Adrian had decided—on the way back, even if he had to leverage every connection in his conglomerate, he was going to buy a new auto-shuffling Duel Disk from KaibaCorp.

Otherwise, you’re at such a disadvantage against certain... dark-hearted, twisted types.

"Makes no sense," Viper muttered.

"Two thousand DEF, huh? Impressive. That means my Witch of the Black Forest can’t beat it," Kira said. "But Don Zaloog’s effect:

When this card inflicts battle damage to your opponent, you can either make them send the top card of their deck to the GY, or discard 1 random card from their hand."

Kira crook-ed his finger.

"I’ll take the latter. Come now, Professor—destroy a card in your hand."

Zaloog had been itching. He snickered. "Been waiting for this."

He drew his revolver and fired—bang!

The bullet punched a transparent hole through one of the cards in Viper’s hand; in the projection, it shattered into golden fragments.

"Tch. Just as underhanded as the rumors say."

Viper snorted.

"My turn, then. Draw."
