"'Beast Machine King Barbaros Ür,' attack 'Sacred Phoenix of Nephthys'!"
The Machine King roared, thunder echoing across the battlefield. Its red armor flashed coldly, its massive body charged with the force of lightning!
Kira: "I activate my face-down—Continuous Trap—Spirit Barrier!
As long as I control a monster, I take no battle damage."
Phoenix was pierced by thunder, exploding in a fireball. But the flames formed a burning barrier, blocking the Machine King's charge.
"You blocked the damage, huh? But it's not over yet." Tenma smiled. "Barbaros Ür's special ability—it can attack up to as many monsters as its Level each turn." (manga effect) ƒгeewebnovёl.com
This manga-style description is a bit unorthodox, but it's essentially like Chimeratech Overdragon: it can attack as many times as its Level, but only monsters.
"Beast Machine King is Level 8, so it can attack up to eight monsters in one turn!"
Even Mokuba's expression changed: "A monster that can attack eight times in one turn?!"
Kira, though, was calm.
Small potatoes.
If you've seen Chimeratech Overdragon with 10,000+ ATK hitting a dozen times in a turn, this isn't that shocking.
Tenma shouted: "Barbaros Ür's second attack—attack 'Mystic Tomato'!"
The Tomato was instantly crushed by the overwhelming might of the Machine King.
"But with 'Spirit Barrier,' I take no damage," Kira said. "And I activate 'Mystic Tomato's' effect—when destroyed by battle, I Special Summon a DARK monster with 1500 or less ATK from my deck.
I Special Summon a second 'Mystic Tomato'!"
[Mystic Tomato, ATK 1400]
"Not enough! Barbaros Ür's third attack!"
The second Tomato was also crushed, but Kira kept summoning: "Still no damage, and I Special Summon a third 'Mystic Tomato'!"
[Mystic Tomato, ATK 1400]
"Pointless! Barbaros Ür's fourth attack!"
All the loyal Tomatos were wiped out, but Kira continued: "I use Tomato's effect again to Special Summon a DARK monster with 1400 or less ATK—
I Special Summon 'Apprentice Magician' in Attack Position!"
[Apprentice Magician, ATK 400]
Tenma: "Then the fifth attack—destroy 'Apprentice Magician'!"
The Apprentice was also KO'd, but Spirit Barrier blocked the damage. Kira searched his deck again.
"Apprentice Magician's effect—when destroyed by battle, I can Set a Level 2 or lower Spellcaster from my deck. I Set 'Apprentice Magician' #2."
The onlookers were speechless.
How long can he keep this up?
Tenma frowned slightly: "Then the sixth attack."
Apprentice #2 was also taken out—unsurprisingly, Kira brought out #3.
"Seventh attack," Tenma ordered.
Apprentice #3 was also KO'd, but its effect triggered again. Kira Set a Level 1 'Magician of Faith' from his deck.
