New Game+-Chapter 561 Poker Face

Garenjazz had two Threes and with the Three of Hearts as part of the faced-up cards. With this, Garenjazz formed a Full-House with a high card of three Threes and the two-faced up Nines as his kicker.

Seeker managed to form a Full-house as the two Seekers and Lynd, had a King each. The face-up Jack of Clubs and Lynd's Jack of Diamond created their Full-house.

But the last card was a weak, Three of Spades. But this weak card allowed Garenjazz to form a Four of a Kind.

The attacks of the Seeker's and Lynd had a Full House allowing them to release an attack that surpassed their limits. But with the River revealed, Garenjazz now had a four of a kind making his hand far more powerful than that of a Full House.

The attack that encompassed all of the Dream World had become more terrifying as the energy increased.

The dwarf counter of Seeker's team seemed useless.

"Shackstress! Zeraphine! You still have another hand!" The Adult shouted and the two Presiders launched an attack.

The cards of Shackstress and Zeraphine glowed.

Six of Clubs from Shackstress's hands, Seven of Clubs from Zeraphine, Eight of Spades from Shackstress, the Nine card from the face-up cards Garenjazz revealed, and the Ten of Spades from Zeraphine's hand. This formed a Straight.

A mystery that even Garenjazz thought was not possible occurred. The Full-House and a Straight appeared and the two powers merged.

When Zeraphine gathered her Zetayne light, she was amazed that it gathered quickly and the world aided them.

A bright beam erupted and merged with the attacks of the two Seekers and Lynd.

Unity allowed the power of the group to merge as the other Zeraphine added her own soul which was familiar with Seeker's.

The four realms combined and created a counter force that challenged the attack of Garenjazz. But the energy they created was still a few times weaker!

Shackstress felt it and used her powers to expand the attacks of Seeker and the rest.

"Megalith World!" She used her powers to expand and with the aid of the Lucky Realm, she was able to boost the attacks of Seeker.

The attacks enlarged and the strength of the attack with it.

The two hands, the Full house and the Straight allowed the group to shoot out an attack with almost equal energy. But Seeker's team had a slight advantage.

BOOM!

The two powers clashed and the attack of Seeker's team pushed back the attack and struck Garenjazz.

The dream world was distorting and was slowly reforming and the team could see Garenjazz laughing in the distance.

"Beautiful! Perfect! Even with my strongest form, you still managed to wound me!" Garenjazz laughed.

"Unity, the power to make you be treated as one... But in that, you have Diversity. Five different beings acting as one. All are one, but all are different. Somehow, you reflect the Triune God. But I guess, you have the power of Quinternity." Garenjazz laughed as a deck of cards began to shuffle.

Seeing the cards in front of her disappear, Shackstress prepared to attack. ƒ𝒓e𝐞we𝚋𝙣ｏ𝚟𝚎𝘭.co𝙢

"Shall we attack?" Shackstress asked.

"Don't. We don't know our cards yet. This battle IS Poker. We cannot win this with might alone. We have to play the game. We need to know when to fight and when to fold. If we receive the two cards and don't know what the Flop is, the moment he reveals it, it could spell our doom if we are hasty." The Adult answered.

Seeker sighed and wished Lowengren was in this battle.

"We can try bluffing." Seeker suggested.

"Sounds very risky, Zeek. Garenjazz is so lucky that it's like we should know his counting cards or something!"

"It could work though. The concept of luck is that it has to be a chance. It cannot happen consistently. Luck is luck because it's a rare occurrence. This means, that even with Garenjazz's luck, he is bound to lose some rounds in this!" Lynd shouted his last words.

"Exactly!" Garenjazz laughed.

"I am lucky because I get lucky at the most critical of moments! It never assures me of victory! That isn't luck! No power can grant me that destiny! And even this world is designed to be like that! It does not favor me! This world offers a pure random chance. But my power works because I am just lucky!" Garenjazz laughed as he raised his hands.

"Now you guys know the rules. But let's put our lives on the line! Roulette of Death Let's have another round! Deal!"

The card deck vanished and everyone saw two cards appear before him.

Lynd and Seeker quickly teleported and appeared in two opposite directions from where Garenjazz stood.

The power of Unity disappeared between the two and the two used their individual powers that were less!

But facing the two who dropped their strongest form, Garenjazz retreated. The dreamworld pulled him back creating a vast gap between the two. Seeker and Lynd chased without hesitation.

The Adult remained and waited for Shackstress and Zeraphine to create a combination attack that used his Cutting Room Floor as the blade.

"Don't show any expressions! Keep your poker face up. If Garenjazz sees you worry or get excited, he'll know our hand! Play the game and fight!" The Adult reminded.

Zeraphine masked all emotions. She was worried. She had known the hand of everyone and as it stood, they had no good hands apart from the two Pairs that Seeker and Lynd were currently wielding.

Garenjazz's retreat was growing faster and faster.

"Now! Reveal it!" Seeker shouted and Lynd followed.

The two revealed their hands.

"Oh? Not bad! And you're not even using Unity to combine your powers. But if you do, you would have two Pairs!" Garenjazz looked at the hand of both.

Seeker held a Nine of Spade and a Nine of Clubs while Lynd had two Kings of Spade and Heart!

Both had a good hand and were using the power of the Pair to push themselves faster with various Paths!

"With six more cards in your hand, the odds are against me! Are you bluffing so that I will be forced to waste a hundred percent of my energy to block your fifty percent of yours? Or is your combined hands something that can critically wound me? Are you so eager to attack me with it, or are you forcing me to make a wasteful bluff? What an exciting fight!" Garenjazz laughed as he gathered more energy and was preparing to fight back.

"Whatever the case, you still revealed your hand too soon!" Garenjazz laughed and continued his retreat! With his superior Combat Body and the dreamworld altering its space, he was able to make a retreat and forced the two to chase after.

"Flop!"

Three cards were revealed.

A Jack of Hearts. A Two of Diamonds. And a Five of Diamonds.

Seeker and Lynd saw the cards and blasted out without fear.

"How confident! You guys won't Fold? Fine, I'll Call your attack!" Garenjazz charged forward.

"Attack and remain separated!" Seeker ordered and Lynd followed.

The two had to make a gamble not knowing what Garenjazz's hand was. But this was a gamble to force Garenjazz to show it.

Seeker held two swords. One made of lightning, the other made of sound. Ice was over him as he harnessed the foundation of Rosa to create powerful frost armor hardened by the Realm King's realm defenses.

Lynd had also assumed his strongest individual form. A golden sun floated over him and combined numerous paths to creating devastating attacks as his physical form assumed the powers of Meng and Amir.

BOOM!

Seeker and Lynd made their attacks and two separate Pairs met and matched the fist of Garenjazz.

The three began to fight out with punches and expanding realms occurring. But Garenjazz never revealed his hand or used it.

The adult frowned as he watched the fight. Seeker and Lynd was able to constantly release more energy than Garenjazz. But Garenjazz still had a Combat Body!

"Is he confident with his hand? Or is he bluffing?" Shackstress wondered.

The Adult waited. He knew that his timing and attack were necessary to kill Garenjazz or to save Seeker and Lynd.

"Ready the attack. I'll be charging in." The Adult commanded.

Back in the three dimensions, Alean quickly stabbed herself with another injection. But this was her last. Her life was quickly draining.

"Even if I die... I'll be sure to save you, Zeek." Alean vowed as she stood up to face the Presider.

With their combined efforts, the reflections of the battle that Garenjazz did not critically harm anyone else on her team.

BOOM!

Ont he another side, the Gryphons Squadron arrived.

And almost at the same time, Cliff, with the parents of Seeker and Lynd also arrived.

Together they all reached the center of Garenjazz's ship and could see his body seated on the Throne.

But pulses of energy would surge out as the battle in his dreams would spill out to reality.

Garenjazz opened one eye and smiled as he glanced at his visitors.

"I'm a bit busy now. I'm playing poker with your leaders. Mind if you leave me alone?"
