"Stand up vanguard" Both fighter yelled

"Rogue Gunner, Arsenal Kid (5000)" Hedeyoshi revealed

A young orange haired boy with a mechanic uniform covered in dust holding a machine gun and a wrench appeared behind Hedeyoshi.

"Greedy Hand (5000)" Nagito revealed

A boy with silver hair, wearing a full-body black leather suit, with goat head shaped shoulder-pads and around his neck with a cloth hanging out of it surrounded by black hands made of darkness appeared behind Nagito.

"Still using that special sub clan of yours" Nagito exclaimed

"I never abandon those that have saved my life" Hedeyoshi replied

"I see so you use Rogue Gunner because they saved your life" Nagito concluded

"Thats correct, though enough with the talking its your turn" Hedeyoshi stated

"I draw" Nagito stated

"I ride Amon's Follower, Hell's Deal (7000), Greedy Hand moves (5000)" Nagito announced

The silver haired boy moved back and a lilac haired girl wearing a purple suit with a long black tail, black devil wings, two horns on her head, pointy ears and red cards covered in a pink flame took its place.

"That ends my turn" Nagito stated

"I attack with Ordinance Chief boosted by Arsenal Kid (12000)" Hedeyoshi declared

"I don't guard" Nagito decided

"Drive check (Rogue Gunner, Recon Drone - Draw Trigger) power to my vanguard, then I draw" Hedeyoshi revealed

The humanoid robot man aimed his rocket cannon at the lilac haired girl and hurt her badly because of the explosion.

"Damage check (Dimension Creeper - No Trigger)" Nagito revealed

The lilac haired girl became a man with grey hair, wearing a black latex suit with a red chest plate, a red mask on his face covering his eyes, clawed hands and a blue aura surrounding one of his arms forming a dragon head.

"I call Psychic of Dust, Izaya (9000)" Nagito stated

A boy wearing black latex suit with yellow lining and spikes, lavender hair with crimson red at the top, a silver chain belt, blood red eyes and a green aura surrounding his whole body appeared.

"I attack your vanguard with my vanguard boosted by Greedy Hand (14000)" Nagito declared

"I don't guard" Hedeyoshi decided

"Drive check (Doreen the Thruster - No Trigger)" Nagito revealed

The grey haired man slashed the humanoid robot with his claws damaging the robot.

"Damage check (Alpha Rogue Gunner, Dragonic Lord of Metal - No Trigger)" Hedeyoshi revealed

"My turn now I draw" Hedeyoshi stated

"So Nagito mind telling me why you don't want Kin to search for Shade" Hedeyoshi asked

"If he goes on with the search he will be disappointed by what he finds" Nagito said hiding his eyes with his hair

"Well, looks like you have something to hid" Hedeyoshi said

"I ride Rogue Gunner, Longshot V2 (9000)" Hedeyoshi announced

The humanoid robot became a jet black teen humanoid robot appeared with a blue visor, a silver V2 logo on its left shoulder and holding a Cheytac .408 cal American sniper rifle.

"I use his skill to soul blast 1 and send Hell's Deal from your soul to the drop zone" Hedeyoshi stated

"I call Rogue Gunner, Rookie Pilot (7000) and Rogue Gunner, Gattling Storm (8000)" Hedeyoshi stated

A young boy wearing a mechanical suit holding a handgun in one hand and a laser knife in the other and a silver humanoid robot holding two gatling machine guns under each arm with a purple visor covering his whole face appeared.

"I soul charge 1 with Rookie Pilot's skill" Hedeyoshi exclaimed

"With a boost from Arsenal Kid, Longshot V2 attacks your vanguard (14000)" Hedeyoshi declared

"I don't guard" Nagito decided

"Drive check (Rogue Gunner, Blitz Runner - Critical Trigger) power to Gattling Storm, critical to my vanguard" Hedeyoshi revealed

The jet black humanoid robot aimed his sniper and fired off 3 consecutive rounds aimed at the grey haired mans arms and left shoulder, the pain caused the man scream in pain.

"Damage check (Amon's Leader, Astaroth - No Trigger) second check (Hysteric Shirley - Draw Trigger)" Nagito revealed

"With a boost from Rookie Pilot, Gattling Storm attacks your front row with a counter blast of 2 (25000)" Hedeyoshi declared

"I don't guard" Nagito decided

The man holding 2 machine guns fired a large barrage of bullets at the two men in latex suits and turned the one with yellow bolt like spikes to dust and the other was in deep pain.

"Damage check (Amon's Follower, Hell's Trick - Heal Trigger) power to my vanguard and I recover 1" Nagito revealed

"My turn now I draw" Nagito stated

"So when I win this match you'll tell me what it is you're hiding right" Hedeyoshi exclaimed

"Thats if you win" Nagito replied

"A psychic that knows what it means to have ultimate power, show my enemies the darkness you possess, I ride Psychic of Ash, Hadar (11000)" Nagito announced

A purple mist surrounded the grey haired man and as it disappeared the grey haired man was replaced by a man wearing a black latex suit with yellow lining and spikes on the shoulders, a yellow visor, long blood red hair and electricity coming out of his hands.

"Interesting" Hedeyoshi exclaimed

"I call Doreen the Thruster (6000) and Amon's Follower, Hell's Draw (9000)"

A female elf with long black hair, black shirt, pants and skirt and collar and women with long lilac hair, with big pointy ears, a black swimsuit like outfit, a long black tail, two large black horns and large black wings.

'Since he has Hadar he won't be able to use Hell's Draw but with Doreen I'd say he doesn't need it considering his field and units' Hedeyoshi calculated

"I activate Greedy Hands skill to add Dimension Creeper to the soul" Nagito exclaimed

"I use Hadar's skill to soul blast Greedy Hand and soul charge 2 cards (Amon's Follower, Cruel Hand) (Amon's Follower, Hell's Draw)" Nagito continued

"Since I soul charged a total of 4 cards this turn Doreen gains 12000 (18000)" Nagito stated

"Hell's Draw attacks Gattling Storm (9000)" Nagito declared

"I don't guard" Hedeyoshi decided

The women in the latex suit charged at the silver humanoid robot and kicked his gatling machine guns towards it damaging it and causing an explosion turning the robot to dust.

"Hadar will attack your vanguard (11000)" Nagito declared

"I guard with Rogue Gunner, Blitz Runner (total defence 19000)" Hedeyoshi countered

"Twin drive first check (Amon's Follower, Vlad Specula - No Trigger) second check (Amon's Follower, Meteor Cracker - Stand Trigger) power to Hell's Draw and she stands" Nagito revealed

"With a boost from Doreen, Hell's Draw attacks your vanguard (35000)" Nagito declared

"I don't guard" Hedeyoshi decided

The latex women charged again this time at the jet black humanoid robot and slashed him with her wings and punched the robot damaging it.

"Damage check (Rogue Gunner, Renegade Leader - No Trigger)" Hedeyoshi revealed

"That ends my turn" Nagito stated

"My turn now I draw" Hedeyoshi stated

"The greatest of the Rogue Gunner Warriors, Stand up, I ride Dragonic Rogue Gunner Master, Kaiser Steel" Hedeyoshi announced

A bright grey light surrounded the jet-black robot and as the light vanished it revealed a tall, black metal clad man with long blond hair similar to Zero from Megaman X, wielding a large sword, blood red eyes and a black scarf covering his mouth.

"So your deck has evolved" Nagito exclaimed

"Not really all I did was add cards I kept hidden" Hedeyoshi replied

"Well lets see if it helps you" Nagito exclaimed

"I call Rogue Gunner, Grenadier Assassin (9000)" Hedeyoshi stated

A humanoid jet black robot with a black metal mask covering his face, a white visor under his mask, a mini grenade launcher with an electronic scope for his left arm, wheels near its feet and jets on his back appeared.

"With a boost from Arsenal Kid, Kaiser Steel attacks (16000)" Hedeyoshi declared

"I don't guard" Nagito decided

"Twin drive first check (Rogue Gunner, Recon Drone - Draw Trigger) power to Grenadier Assassin and I draw, second check (Rogue Gunner, Renegade Leader - No Trigger)" Hedeyoshi revealed

The tall man slashed the blood haired man with his long sword causing great deals of pain.

"Damage check (Amon's Follower, Hell's Trick - Heal Trigger) power to my vanguard and I recover one" Nagito revealed

"With a boost from Rookie Pilot, Grenadier Assassin attacks your vanguard (21000)" Hedeyoshi declared

"My turn I draw" Nagito stated

"Hedeyoshi may I ask you a question" Nagito asked

"What is it" Hedeyoshi replied

"Do you honestly believe what Kiniro is doing is right" Nagito asked blatantly

"I'll admit his disappearance has a sense of importance to it, but Shade is as much my friend as he is Kin's besides even if Shade doesn't want to see us Kin deserves to see him and get an explanation" Hedeyoshi answered

"So be it" Nagito said disappointed

"I call Psychic of Dust, Izaya (9000)" Nagito stated

Another boy wearing black latex suit with yellow lining and spikes, lavender hair with crimson red at the top, a silver chain belt, blood red eyes and a green aura surrounding his whole body.

'Here it comes' Hedeyoshi thought

"A man with psychic abilities calls one with the same ideal and strength, Seek Mate!" Nagito announced

4 cards flew out of Nagito's drop zone and returned to the deck then a light surrounded his deck and scanned through it, then a card flew out from the deck.

"When two with psychic powers join forces none can stand in their way, Psychic of Dust, Izaya, Legion!" Nagito announced

A third boy wearing black latex suit with yellow lining and spikes, lavender hair with crimson red at the top, a silver chain belt, blood red eyes and a green aura surrounding his whole body appeared next to the blood haired man.

"I use Dimension Creepers skill to place him in drop zone from the soul to soul charge 2 (Psychic of Ash, Hadar) (Amon's Follower, Ron Geenlin)" Nagito stated

"I use Hadar's skill soul blasting a grade 0 to soul charge 2 (Dimension Creeper) (Amon's Follower, Meteor Cracker)" Nagito stated

"With 4 cards soul charged Izaya and Doreen get 12000 power (18000) (21000)" Nagito stated

'So Izaya gets power by soul charging too, interesting' Hedeyoshi thought

"Izaya attacks your vanguard (21000)" Nagito declared

"I don't guard" Nagito decided

The man with the latex suit charged at the tall man and zapped him with his claws, slightly damaging the man.

"Damage check (Rogue Gunner Mechanic - Heal Trigger) power to my vanguard and I recover one" Hedeyoshi revealed

"Now Hadar, Izaya, Legion attack, with the Legion skill since I have 6 cards in my soul I choose 2 rearguards and give them 5000 power I choose Doreen and Hell's Draw (23000) (14000)" Nagito declared

'That skill makes it difficult to block, so I'll' Hedeyoshi thought

"I don't guard" Hedeyoshi decided

"Twin drive first check (Amon's Follower, Vlad Specula - No Trigger) second check (Amon's Follower, Cruel Hand - Critical Trigger) power to Hell's Draw, critical to my vanguard" Nagito revealed

The blood haired man and lavender haired boy charged at the metal clad man and then they both slashed him and the lavender haired boy electrocuted him.

"Damage check (Rogue Gunner, Gattling Storm - No Trigger) second check (Rogue Gunner, Driving Engineer - No Trigger)" Hedeyoshi revealed

"With a boost from Doreen, Hell's Draw attacks your vanguard (42000)" Nagito declared

"I nullify it with Rogue Gunner, Renegade Leader (perfect defence)" Hedeyoshi countered

The lilac haired women charged at the metal clad man but then a humanoid robot wearing a captain uniform appeared and summoned a squadron of robots to stop the attack.

"That ends my turn" Nagito stated

"My turn I draw" Hedeyoshi stated

"Your good Nagito as always" Hedeyoshi complemented

Nagito didn't reply he only stayed silent.

"But I won't be losing this match now" Hedeyoshi stated

"The greatest leader deserves the greatest companion, Seek Mate!" Hedeyoshi announced

4 cards flew out of Hedeyoshi's drop zone and returned to the deck then a light surrounded his deck and scanned through it, then a card flew out from the deck.

"Ultimate Rogue Gunner Duo, Alpha Rogue Gunner, Dragonic Lord of Metal, Legion!" Hedeyoshi announced

A dragon the size of a small skyscraper with wings to match his size coated in metal, the wings are the same as Gust Blaster Dragon with missile launchers on embedded in them, 4 arms with claws as sharp as a katana each claw holding a weapon in the bottom left claw is a Sub-Machine Gun, the bottom right has a grenade launcher attached to the wrist, the top right claw has a sword made of energy, the top left claw has a mini gun, a head the shape of a Blue Eyes White Dragon and has a pattern similar to Gust Blaster Dragon covering its body appeared beside the metal clad man.

"Looks like your main unit has changed" Nagito stated

"Funny you don't sound surprised" Hedeyoshi replied

"It is not impossible for a unit to change themselves" Nagito answered vaguely

"I use Grenadier Assassin's skill send Amon's Follower, Meteor Cracker to the drop zone from your soul" Hedeyoshi stated

"Now using Lord of Metal's Limit Break, I counter blast 1 and make you discard a card (Amon's Follower, Vlad Specula) then I retire a unit of the same grade or higher, I retire Doreen" Hedeyoshi announced

"I use Kaiser Steel's skill by doing a persona blast I retire Hell's Draw and Izaya" Hedeyoshi continued

"Then I use Arsenal Kid's skill I send Dimension Creeper from your soul to the drop zone with a counter blast of 1" Hedeyoshi said placing his starter in the soul

"With that done Lord of Metal gains 3000 power for each card placed in the drop zone, since 6 cards went to the drop zone 18000 power is added (40000)" Hedeyoshi added

'Impressive' Nagito stated

"Now Dragonic Lord of Metal, Kaiser Steel, Legion attack" Hedeyoshi yelled

"I nullify it with Vlad Specula (perfect defence)" Nagito countered

'So you had a second one in your hand' Hedeyoshi thought

"Twin drive first check (Rogue Gunner, Driving Strike - Critical Trigger) all effects to Grenadier Assassin, second check (Alpha Rogue Gunner, Dragonic Lord of Metal - No Trigger)" Hedeyoshi revealed

The dragon flew high in the air and prepared all his weapons while the metal clad man jumped towards the lavender and blood red haired men and the dragon fired all its weapons, but a man with long black hair, pale vampire skin, wearing a purple latex armour with a glowing red demon eye pattern in the chest plate with two purple rings behind him created an energy shield and stopped the assault.

"With a boost from Rookie Pilot, Grenadier Assassin attacks your vanguard (21000)" Hedeyoshi declared

"I don't guard" Nagito decided

The humanoid robot armed his grenade launcher and fired 5 grenades at once and all of them exploded on impact damaging the two men.

"Damage check first check (Dimension Creeper - No Trigger) second check (Hysteric Shirley - Draw Trigger) power to my vanguard and I draw" Nagito revealed

"That ends my turn" Hedeyoshi stated

"My turn I draw" Nagito stated

"You have lost this one Hedeyoshi" Nagito said blatantly

"I wouldn't say that yet" Hedeyoshi replied

"I call Amon's Leader, Astaroth (11000)" Nagito stated

A giant demonic creature with 4 large white wings and 2 large red demonic wings on its back, red chains covering both its arms, a demonic eyes in the chest and wearing a head like helmet with white fur and red horns appeared.

"Hadar, Izaya, Legion attack" Nagito declared

"I guard with Rogue Gunner, Driving Strike (total defence 21000)" Hedeyoshi countered

"Twin drive (Amon's Follower, Psycho Grave - No Trigger) second check (Amon's Follower, Cruel Hand - Critical Trigger) all effects to Hadar and Izaya" Nagito revealed

'Guess thats it' Hedeyoshi thought

The two men approach the dragon and metal clad man and slashed them with their claws and the lavender haired man zapped the dragon.

"Damage check (Rogue Gunner, Longshot V2 - No Trigger)" Hedeyoshi revealed

"Its over" Nagito said looking down

"Guess so" Hedeyoshi replied

"Be prepared for the punishment" Nagito said

"Go ahead" Hedeyoshi replied

"The spirits of darkness peer deep into your soul, and use the darkness in your heart to show you the pain defeat brings you, Judgement" Nagito announced

At the moment the cards from the damage zone formed a tower of black aura then evil spirits rained down on the player making him scream in pain.

"AHHHH" Hedeyoshi yelled

Hedeyoshi ended up on one knee in pain.

"Now will you stop your search, if you continue you will only experience this over and over again" Nagito stated

"I've experienced worst in my time...compared to the harsh pain and misery from back then...this is nothing..I'll continue the search and I know the others will too, thinking we'll stop that easily is a mistake" Hedeyoshi said pained

"I thought you would be smarter than that" Nagito said as he left

~Time Skip, Card Capital~

"Its taking the others a long time to get back" Kiniro said worried

"They might have run into trouble" Yudai suggested

"I'm sure they will be fine" Izo exclaimed

At that moment Hikaru and Hedeyoshi walked in the shop wounded.

"Guys are you alright" Kiniro asked going to their side

"I can't say I am" Hikaru replied

"I've been through worst" Hedeyoshi replied

"Did something happen" Yudai asked

"We were attacked by the Cinque Defenders" Hikaru answered

"Looks like you guys lost, they must be really good then" Izo exclaimed

"Yeah, I ended up facing Nagito" Hedeyoshi replied

"He appeared again" Kiniro said shocked

"What about you Hikaru" Yudai asked

"I was approached by Hiyama Tsurugi" Hikaru answered

"Him" Kiniro said

"Yeah, he's better than when you guys fought him in the past" Hikaru stated

"Did you guys find any clues before they showed up" Izo asked

"Nothing" Hedeyoshi answered

"What about you three" Hikaru asked

"We didn't find anything either" Kiniro answered

"Thats too bad" Yudai stated

"Lets try again tomorrow guys" Izo suggested

"Good idea Izo" Kiniro agreed

With that the group left the shop and with nothing pointing them to where Kurai is, but now they know another member of the Cinque Defenders and will continue their search for their friend un-wavered.
