Let's start by opening The Legend of Blue Eyes White Dragon pack.
Opening pack...
Dark Energy (Common) x1
Enchanting Mermaid (Common) x1
Darkworld Thorns (Common) x1
Petit Dragon (Common) x1
Lesser Dragon (Common) x1
Fireyarou (Common) x1
M-Warrior #1 (Common) x1
King Fog (Common) x1
Karbonala Warrior (Rare) x1
I only got five new cards.
Enchanting Mermaid can hypnotize people, luring them to water and drowning them.
Dark Energy boosts the power of Fiend-type monsters.
Lesser Dragon will add to our combat personnel in future battles.
King Fog—is it made of fog? If so, it might have powers similar to a Logia-type Devil Fruit.
Karbonala Warrior could strengthen our combat capabilities in public, given its human-like appearance. But I can't summon it yet because I don't have M-Warrior #2 and Polymerization.
Not the best, but not the worst either.
Next, let's open the Metal Riders pack.
Opening pack...
Ooguchi (Common) x1
Tongyo (Common) x1
Mystic Horseman (Common) x1
Ancient Elf (Common) x1
Killer Needle (Common) x1
Hibikime (Common) x1
Share the Pain (Common) x1
Witch of the Black Forest (Rare) x1
Garnecia Elefantis (Super Rare) x1
Tongyo is a fish. Not much else to say. I guess it's decently strong.
Mystic Horseman is a centaur. I could ask him to carry me if I need to travel long distances.
Ancient Elf can teach me magic, but her magic is different from Fireyarou's. Ancient Elf specializes in spirit or soul magic.
Killer Needle is a bee.
Share the Pain forces the enemy to sacrifice one monster if I sacrifice one. I'm not sure how this would work in the real world. Would every injury I take also affect the enemy?
Ooguchi is a strange creature. I'm not sure I'll summon it.
Garnecia Elefantis could become one of our strongest fighters just based on its massive size.
Witch of the Black Forest can summon another card with DEF below 1500. I'll need to test this during a battle.
Now, let's open the Magic Ruler pack.
Opening pack...
Ceremonial Bell (Common) x1
Malevolent Nuzzler (Common) x1
Fire Kraken (Common) x1
Ancient One of the Deep Forest (Common) x1
Labyrinth Wall (Common) x1
Dark Witch (Common) x1
Darkness Approaches (Common) x1
Eatgaboon (Common) x1
Mystic Tomato (Rare) x1
Fire Kraken is a sea monster that uses fire. I'm not sure how I'll use it yet.
Ceremonial Bell is a bell tower. Maybe it can detect hidden things using sound, similar to sonar.
Eatgaboon destroys weak monsters.
Darkness Approaches works like fog, making anything covered by it undetectable to enemies.
Ancient One of the Deep Forest has an impressive name, but it's just a goat.
Malevolent Nuzzler is useful for increasing a monster's attack power.
Labyrinth Wall might be useful for protecting our base temporarily.
Dark Witch is a woman with wings. I remember there are races in this world with wings, like the Skypieans and Lunarians. I doubt she'll draw much suspicion if summoned.
And one more part of my morning routine: "Activate Upstart Goblin."
A bright light flashed in front of me for a few seconds. When it faded, there were several bills and coins on the floor. After counting, it totaled 72,182 berries.
Considering Nami collected 100 million berries in eight years, I could probably gather the same amount in half the time.
After finishing my morning routine, I picked out a few cards.
"Come forth, Dark Witch and Ancient Elf. Then, Hibikime and Hibikime. Next, Witch of the Black Forest and M-Warrior #1 twice. Finally, Fireyarou."
Dark Witch, Ancient Elf, two Hibikime, Witch of the Black Forest, two M-Warrior #1s, and Fireyarou appeared before me, kneeling.
"Thank you for summoning us, Master. We will carry out any orders you give us," they all said in unison.
Did they rehearse this? It felt like they'd practiced beforehand.
"Armed Ninja and Succubus Knight, join us as well," I called the two summons I'd summoned earlier.
"All of you, spread out. Gather information on The Hound Pets—their location, number of members, and their strength. Find out everything you can about them and report back to me. You have until tomorrow evening. Remember, stay discreet and avoid drawing attention."
I gave them their orders. I chose these monsters because their appearances were more human-like, so they wouldn't attract too much attention.
"Understood, Master. We will complete this task perfectly," they replied before leaving the room one by one.
"Fireyarou, Masaki. We'll continue our training soon. Get ready!" I ordered Masaki and Fireyarou.
"Understood, Master," they both replied.
But before that...
"Come forth, Labyrinth Wall!"
I felt a tremor beneath my feet. Outside, a massive wall rose slowly from the ground. The thick stone wall formed a labyrinth, standing 10 meters tall.
From above, the area covered about one square kilometer, with the house at its center. The edges of the labyrinth were lined with thorny plants, making it difficult for anyone to enter.
"I summon Ceremonial Bell and Darkworld Thorns," I called out two more cards.
A bell tower appeared beside the house, and a thorny plant emerged in front of me.
"Thorns, join the other Thorns outside to reinforce the barrier. Bell, ring every hour, but make sure the sound doesn't travel beyond the labyrinth." I knew Thorns could understand me, but could Bell? The magic of Yu-Gi-Oh! cards would handle it.
"Hunting team, carry out your usual tasks. Lesser Dragon and Mystic Horseman, come forth! Assist the hunting team in gathering food." I summoned Mystic Horseman and Lesser Dragon to strengthen the hunting team.
"Understood, Master. Leave it to us," Mystic Horseman replied. I appointed Mystic Horseman as the team leader since he was the only one who could speak human language.
"Masaki, Fireyarou, let's begin training."
The three of us started our training. My routine was the same as yesterday, but I could feel my body growing stronger.
Ace, Sabo, and Luffy spent their childhoods fighting wild animals and grew into powerhouses by age 17. With the help of my monsters, I might be able to reach that level in three or four years.
Besides that, I also wanted to test my monsters' strength. Someday, I'd take them to a Marine base on Sabaody and let them wreak havoc. I was curious to see what kind of chaos would unfold.
Eight hours later...
Since I started training early in the morning, I finished by noon. I ordered Fireyarou and Masaki to prepare lunch. I had some ingredients stored since it was impossible to consume all the game the hunting team brought back.
After lunch, I prepared to visit the nearest settlement to buy supplies. But who should accompany me to the shops?
To be continued…
