Events

Prior

Seto Kaiba is testing out his new and improved Duel Disk. Mokuba Kaiba is on standby with other KaibaCorp personnel, who informs the former that the Duel Robot will be using the Deck Kaiba used in Duelist Kingdom. Kaiba uses this as a test to try out the Egyptian God card, "Obelisk the Tormentor", which Ishizu lent him for the Battle City tournament he was hosting. The test proceeds when two holographic display apparatus launch from the Duel Disk, and the Duel commences.

Duel

Turn 1: Duel Robot
Duel Robot draws. It then Sets a monster.

Turn 2: Kaiba
Kaiba draws "Battle Ox". He then Sets a card and Normal Summons "Battle Ox" (1700/1000) in Attack Position. "Battle Ox" attacks and destroys Duel Robot's Set monster, "Cyber Jar" (900/900).

The Flip Effect of "Cyber Jar" then activates, destroying every monster on the field. and forcing both Duelists to pick up five cards from the top of their Decks and Special Summon or Set any Level 4 or below monster they find onto the field. The remaining picked up cards are added to the players' hands. The Duel Robot Sets two monsters while Kaiba Sets a monster and Special Summons "Maha Vailo" (1550/1400), "Dark Zebra" (1800/400), "Boar Soldier" (2000/500), and "Hitotsu-Me Giant" (1200/1000) in Attack Position.

Turn 3: Duel Robot Duel Robot draws. It then Tributes both of its Set monsters, "Aqua Madoor" (1200/2000) and "Wall of Illusion" (1000/1850) in order to Tribute Summon "Blue-Eyes White Dragon" (3000/2500) in Attack Position. (NOTE: The Duel Machine could have attacked, but because it was wary of Seto's Set Spell/Trap Card, it chose to not attack.) On the End Phase, the Duel Robot discards two cards from its hand as its hand surpasses the hand size limit.

Turn 4: Kaiba
Kaiba draws. He then Tributes "Hitotsu-Me Giant" in order to Tribute Summon "Dragon Seeker" (2000/2100) in Defense Position. When this monster is switched from face-up Defense Position to Attack Position, Kaiba can destroy one Dragon-type monster on the field. He intends to use the effect of "Dragon Seeker" on the following turn.

Turn 5: Duel Robot
Duel Robot draws. It then Sets a card and Normal Summons "Lord of Dragons" (1200/1100) in Attack Position. Due to the effect of "Lord of D.", it can negate any effect that targets Dragon-Type monsters.

Turn 6: Kaiba
Seto switches "Maha Vailo", "Dark Zebra", and "Boar Soldier" to Defense Position.

Turn 7: Duel Robot
Duel Robot draws. It then activates "The Flute of Summoning Dragon" to Special Summon two "Blue-Eyes White Dragons" from its hand (3000/2500 for both) in Attack Position. The Duel Robot then activates its face-down "Polymerization" to fuse all three "Blue-Eyes White Dragons" together and Fusion Summon "Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon" (4500/3800) in Attack Position. Under Battle City Rules, Fusion Monsters cannot attack the same turn they are Summoned, so the Duel Robot ends its turn. (NOTE: In the real game, this delay does not exist.)

Turn 8: Kaiba
Kaiba draws "Obelisk the Tormentor". He then Tributes "Boar Soldier", "Dragon Seeker", and his Set monster ("D.D. Warrior") in order to Tribute Summon "Obelisk the Tormentor" (4000/4000) in Attack Position. Kaiba then activates the first effect of "Obelisk the Tormentor" to make its ATK and DEF infinite by Tributing "Dark Zebra" and "Maha Vailo". "Obelisk the Tormentor" attacks and destroys "Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon" (Duel Robot 4000 → 0).

Kaiba wins

Aftermath

Everyone is shocked to see the power of Obelisk the Tormentor and its raw power.
