Then, if you control "The First Sarcophagus", "The Second Sarcophagus", and "The Third Sarcophagus", send all of them to the GY, and if you do, Special Summon 1 "Spirit of the Pharaoh" from your hand or Deck. If any of these cards, including this card, leaves your field, send all of them you control to the GY, including this card.
