You have nothing to protect you!
Ha! Is that so?! You seem to be forgetting about the facedown card that you activated with your last attack-- A TRAP WITH THE POWER TO STOP AN EGYPTIAN GOD!
But how?! That's impossible!
Yeah, right! There's no way Marik has a trap card powerful enough to stop Obelisk!
It's time for me to unveil my secret weapon, Pharaoh! By causing me to lose more than half of my Life Points, you've allowed me to play this card! It's both a trap and a monster! Say hello to Metal Reflect Slime!
It's a creature made of plasma, giving it the ability to take on the shape of the monster that just attacked me! So my slime monster will now morph into the likeness of Obelisk the Tormentor!
No! A clone of an Egyptian God?!
[Yami Marik's trap starts morphing into the form of Egyptian God Slime]
Whatever it is, that thing is gross!
That thing's gonna be a big slimy Obelisk!
That giant booger's gonna become and Egyptian God?!
Hey, guys, don't look now, but I think it's working!
Pharaoh, meet my Egyptian God Slime! YOU'LL NEVER STOP HIM!
Marik made an exact copy of Yugi's Obelisk the Tormentor!
Does that mean they're equal in strength?
No! Marik's is just a cheap copy of the original! His wannabe Obelisk only has 3,000 defense points, so the real Obelisk can knock it into next week with one blow!
Yugi's gonna destroy that fake next time he attacks, right, Seto?
KKaiba
Not quite. I'm sure there's more to Marik's monster than meets the eye, Mokuba. Just keep watching.
Your carbon copy pales in comparison to the original, Marik!
My Egyptian God Slime is more powerful thank you think, Pharaoh, but you'll find that out soon enough. Now finish your move so my assault can continue!
Fine, I'll place one card facedown. It's your move!
Very well, fool! [draws; thinking] That's the exact card I needed to make my Egyptian God Slime unstoppable. Nothing will be able to destroy it! My Life Points will be protected indefinitely! Not even the mighty Obelisk will get through! [speaking] Pharaoh, it won't be long now. Soon, my Winged Dragon of Ra will return to the field and wipe you out! And in the meantime, I have my Egyptian God Slime to serve as a wall between you and my Life Points. And now for the card that will make that all possible-- the indestructible Revival Jam! I see you recall your last encounter with my Revival Jam, when you faced my mind slave, Strings! [Flashback to Yami Yugi's duel with Strings] Now I have one more card to play-- Polymerization! This allows me to fuse my Egyptian God Slime with my Revival Jam!
So what do you think Marik is cooking up now, guys?
Unfortunately, we're about to find out!
And now the fusion of my two creatures is complete!
I assure you my Egyptian God Slime has transformed into a new more powerful beast. It's your move, so go ahead and attack it, if you dare!
Marik's fusion monster is regenerating itself!
Precisely! That's because my monster has the combined power of Egyptian God Slime and Revival Jam! My plan's complete. Thanks to my invincible defense monster, my Life Points can no longer be damaged. Therefore, defeating me is impossible, Pharaoh! Don't you see? This was my plan from the start, and you fell for it! How naive of you!
I'm not worried about a thing, Tristan. Yugi will figure out how to take that big slime ball down!
Well, it doesn't look too promising from where I'm standing!
KKaiba
[thinking] I knew this was all part of Marik's strategy all along! He let Yugi's Obelisk the Tormentor attack him on purpose! That allowed Marik to create an unstoppable Obelisk clone! Now whenever Yugi attacks it, Marik's Egyptian God Slime will absorb the blow and then regenerate itself!
It's time for Ra to return to the graveyard! My great beast may be gone, however, I assure you he'll be back!
Yes, we will! In fact, my Egyptian God card will return to the field sooner than you think! Watch. I'm about to give my dragon a second chance by turning back time and repeating my attack again. And it's all thanks to this magic card! Have you ever seen it?
Surprise Attack from Beyond!
Well, I suppose I'll take your response as a "yes." This card allows me to replay the attack I just made against Obelisk!
Yugi already blocked that attack! That's a real cheat move, Marik!
KKaiba
[thinking] Now Marik has another chance to wipe out Yugi's defense with his Winged Dragon of Ra!
No way! My mind must be playing tricks on me!
I doubt that. My card seens to be doing the same thing, Kaiba!
It feels as though these three dragons are calling out to us.
I was told that fate had chosen three modern-day warriors to release these legendary beasts.
KKaiba
Chosen by fate? Get real. I'm the one who decides my fate, Yugi! Not some fairy tale about mythical dragons and giant man-eating monsters.
Be reasonable for once! The world needs us! We do this as a team!
KKaiba
Sorry... I don't do the teamwork thing.
KKaiba
You geeks have wasted enough of my time already. I have a multi-million dollar company to run. Playtime's over.
We don't need him weighing us down anyway. With good old Hermos over here those hoodlums won't stand a chance.
Someone's back to their old self again. About time.
It took me a while, but I realized being bummed out about Mai's not gonna bring her back.
[They spots at Yugi, Joey, Mai, Pegasus, Weevil, Rex, Alister, Valon and all many people in stone]
Dude, what's with all these people chiseled in stone?
They're not just any people! Take a look!
[shocked] Oh, no! There's Mai and Weevil!
This must be everyone who lost their soul!
[voice-over] What a touching reunion. Too bad your friends turned out to be a bunch of stiffs. [laughing evilly and reveals himself from fire]
You were expecting someone else? Well, due to the carelessness of my employees, I'm the only one left. You can't find good help these days.
KKaiba
Look, I want my company back, so can the small talk!
Is that so? Well, guess what? We all want something. As for me, I want your souls for my wall. I even have the spot picked out.
KKaiba
Save it, Dartz! It'll take a lot more than a few party tricks to scare me!
Now, for the last time, release our friends!
I mean they've already been put to use. As we speak, their life energy supplies to the most devastating creature that ever lived.
My 10,000 year old collection is almost complete. Once I get you two, the beast can rise.
Hold on! You've been collecting souls for all those years?! Do you know how many lives you've destroyed?!
[snickers evilly] Millions! And each one of them deserved their fate! Take a moment to look around, won't you? Some of my favorite conquests are in this very room. And since it's taken me millennia to complete, it's quite the history lesson.
He's right. Look at the outfits on these guys.
So some of these people lived in the past?
Now you're catching on. Ever since the Great Leviathan was laid to rest, I've been gathering the energy necessary to fuel its rebirth.
KKaiba
Come on, you expect us to believe that junk?
Ye of little faith. Just duel me and I promise I'll make a believer out of you, For when you lose, there will be no denying my power.
KKaiba
Then let's stop talking and start dueling.
You can't, Kaiba-- not alone. This lunatic is far too dangerous.
So why don't you join him? And when I defeat you, [activates his chaos duel disk] I'll get two souls for the price of one!
KKaiba
I'm way ahead of you.
[After the Pharaoh and Kaiba summon Blue-Eyes White Dragon and Black Luster Soldier, both monsters with 3000 attack points]
All right! Dartz better watch out! They just summoned two major league monsters on their first turn!
Those pathetic creatures may work in your little card tournaments, but I'm afraid I play a completely different game-- a game in which the winner takes ALL, and the loser pays the ultimate price! This card was born from the darkness itself! [echoes] Behold, a power that has existed since the dawn of time. The very power that shall strip you of your souls! [plays the Seal of Orichalcos]
If you mean the sudden drop in temperature and that freaky evil vibe in the air, then yes, I do.
Now that I've set the tone for this duel, allow me to continue. Watch this… Arise, Orichalcos Gigas!
I faced this beast before, and it was almost impossible to destroy, Kaiba.
KKaiba
That's 'cause last time you didn't have me to bail you out.
Next, I'll sacrifice 500 of my Life Points. That let's me summon my Orichalcos Kyutora. And, thanks to the Seal, it gets an additional 500 points. All right. I guess that'll do for now.
And so the Battle of Atlantis began! You see my father had opened up a gateway to the Dominion of the Beasts and he used the monsters within to form an army of his own.
Tell me, what was the battle's outcome?
Neither side were victorious and Atlantis sunk to the bottom of the sea. My father's monster army were scattered around the world and sealed away until they be needed again. The Leviathan was drained of its power and also sealed away. It's taken me 10,000 years to gather the energy necessary to bring it back. All that's left of me to do is to defeat you two in this duel. Then your souls will awaken the Great Leviathan and my plan will finally come to pass.
KKaiba
Hold on! We already defeated you! Our Master of Dragon Soldier should've wipe out the rest of your life points.
Perhaps it should have, but I'm afraid it didn't. Your pathetic attack failed short of its target. So this duel is still on.
Orichalcos Gigas, return!
I told you, Kaiba. Each time his Gigas is destroyed, it comes back even stronger!
Face it, you'll never defeat me! The power of the Orichalcos will swallow you both! Now back to the duel. Since my Gigas returned to me, I can't draw a card. But no matter, everything I need is in my hand. So I'll enhance the power of the Seal with this-- the magic of Orichalcos Deuteros! [laughs evilly]
Somehow he's made the Seal of Orichalcos stronger!
[After Dartz activates the Orichalcos Deuteros spell card, adding another layer to the Seal of Orichalcos]
Gentlemen, welcome to the second level of darkness!
I don't know how. But Dartz just added another layer to the Seal of Orichalcos!
Right! So what does that mean?
The first benefit of my Orichalcos Deuteros, is the addition of 500 Life Points each turn for every monster I have on the field. Therefore, since I have two, that's 1,000 points!
KKaiba
What?! How are we supposed to wipe him out?!
You're not. It makes me invincible! Next, I'll attack your Master of Dragon Soldier! Go, my Orichalcos Gigas!
Nice try! But my dragon's too strong!
Kyutora, absorb all the damage! [chuckles] My Life Points are safe. And now, my Gigas returns!
That creep! He's letting his Orichalcos Gigas get its butt kicked on purpose, so it can come back stronger!
[thinking] That can't be it. His monster would have to be destroyed seven more times before it could defeat my dragon. So there must be more to his plan. Perhaps the secret lies in his Kyutora, and its ability to absorb attack damage. Yes! That creature must have another special ability!
KKaiba
All right, Dartz, my move! [thinking] As long as that eyesore is on the field, it's pointless to attack his Orichalcos Gigas because Dartz won't lose any Life Points. Plus, Gigas will just come back stronger. But if I attack Dartz directly, I should be able to win the duel! [speaking] I place one card facedown on the field! And next… I summon my Blade Knight! And since I have only one card left in my hand, Blade Knight gets another 400 attack points! I think that'll do for now.
[thinking] He's setting himself up for something.
KKaiba
[thinking] Yugi better not screw this up for me.
KKaiba
Oh, no! That attack was supposed to hit Dartz, not his monster!
It's a force field! But how did he create it?
By using the second layer of the Seal, of course. Whenever my Life Points are targeted, my Orichalcos Deuteros steps in to defend me. It's simple. I make a sacrifice so that your monster takes the hit! You know what that means, right? Your dragon just attacked itself!
So tell me, Gentlemen, what do you think of my newest soldiers? I'm sure there's no need for any introductions.
KKaiba
Just drop the magic act and let's duel.
But we are dueling, you insensible twit. We're just doing it by my rules, that's all. Since I now control the souls of your former friends, I thought it would be fun to let them play along with us.
What did they do to you?!
You should be thanking me.
I'm giving you one last chance to see your companions. Before their souls are gone forever.
You'll never take them away from us, Dartz!
That's right, Pharaoh. Let your anger consume you. Feel the darkness within you beginning to spread. The stronger your rage, the more powerful the Great Leviathan will be when it absorbs your soul. Now where we? Ah, yes. Mirror Knight Yugi. It's time to attack your other half.
No, Yugi! Fight it! I know you can hear me!
[Yugi struggles to fight against Dartz's command]
What's this? My soldier is still loyal to you? How touching. Even though you turned your back on him, he refuses to seek revenge. That will soon change.
It's time to reinforce the sacred Seal with its most powerful layer thus far! Behold the ancient magic of my Orichalcos Tritos! [adds a third layer to the Seal of Orichalcos] Welcome to level 3, gentlemen.
How can the Seal possibly get any stronger?!
We're dealing with a force greater than the darkest shadows and older than time itself. Does that answer your question?
His Life Points are out of control!
Orichalcos Malevolence, use your special ability to switch Kaiba's dragon into attack mode! So I'm afraid this is goodbye. With an attack strength of only 1400, your dragon is far too weak to defend your Life Points.
Now my beast, bring Kaiba's soul to me!
KKaiba
Wrong! I activate my Shrink card!
[chuckles and the third layer of the Seal destroys Kaiba's magic card] Is it beginning to sink in yet? When used properly, the Seal of Orichalcos is unmatched by any other card in the game! And due to its third layer, your magic and trap cards are useless against me!
Kyutora has another ability! Whenever it's destroyed, it evolves!
[Orichalcos Kyutora is destroyed and Orichalcos Shunoros appears]
Oh, no! What's going on?!
My little friend is all grown up, so playtime's over! Gentlemen, I'd like you meet Orichalcos Shunoros!
KKaiba
Did you see what I see?!
That thing's got 20,000 points!
Don't look so surprised. You're the ones who created this unstoppable beast! You may have destroyed my previous monsters, but you unleashed something far worse!
It can wipe us out in one strike!
You're absolutely right, but before I do that, I have some more bad news to share. Orichalcos Shunoros, activate your special ability! Release Orichalcos Dexia… and Orichalcos Aristeros!
What's the meaning of this?!
Allow me to clear things up. Shunoros just released two more creatures. The first one is known as Dexia, and its attack strength is always 300 points higher than the monster it's battling, making it the perfect sword! And the second one is just as strong. It will intercept every one of your attacks and retaliate with a blast that's 300 points greater than the one you fired, making Orichalcos Aristeros the perfect shield! You'll never get past my triple threat!
[thinking] Not only is his monster more powerful than Kaiba's dragon… but with Dexia and Aristeros on the front line, our attacks won't even get through!
I activate the trap card, Martyr Curse! This forces one of your monsters to engage in a battle with one of my monsters. And as a nasty little side effect, it cancels out any special abilities your creature may have. And since I don't seem to have much of a choice, I'll target your Mirror Force Dragon! Without its reflecting power, your dragon's completely defenseless, which means you're about to be out one soul! Orichalcos Shunoros, remove Kaiba's Life Points so the Orichalcos can remove his spirit!
