episode 176 summarized by Horoko


The triangle duel between Fujiwara, Judai, and Johan is continued. Even though this is an independent duel, Judai and Johan seem to fight like a team against Fujiwara. It's now Fujiwara's turn. He successfully summons Clear Vice Dragon onto the field. His clear monster doesn't hold any attribute when summoned onto the field, so Fujiwara doesn't receive any negative effect from Clear World. Furthermore, by the special effect of Clear Vice Dragon, its attack points can be doubled by the attack points of the monster it is going to attack. Fujiwara aims to E-Hero Flame Wingman, so the attack points of Clear Vice Dragon become 4200 (2100*2). Judai is about to receive a critical strike from Clear Vice Dragon.

When Clear Vice Dragon attacks E-Hero Flame Wingman, Johan calls for Judai loudly. It seems that Johan can't help Judai at this moment. Judai quickly opens his face-down trap card [Hero Shield - Permanent Trap: Equip as an Equip Card to 1 monster with Hero in its name on your side of the field. If the equipped monster would be destroyed by battle, negate the destruction by sending this card to the Cemetery. At this time, draw a card from your deck for each 1000 points of Battle Damage you've received] and equips it with E-Hero Flame Wingman.

By the effect of Hero Shield, E-Hero Flame Wingman can't be destroyed in battle. Anyway, Fujiwara claims that Judai still has to receive battle damage. Thus, Judai's LP decreases to 1300 (3400+2100-4200). Johan asks Judai with concern whether he is okey. Judai replies that he is fine at this level. According to the effect of Hero Shield, Judai is able to draw 1 card for each 1000 damage points he received. He received 2100 (4200-2100) damage points from the prior attack, so he is able to draw 2 cards (2100/1000: remainders are ignored).

Fujiwara doesn't look happy very much. At his end phase, following the special effect of Clear Vice Dragon, he has to change it to defense position. It's clear to Johan now that Clear Vice Dragon has 0 defense point. Setting up a face-down card, Fujiwara ends his turn.

Johan claims for this turn. For the portion Judai received, he intends to get it back by double. Fujiwara is very annoyed by such a bond and deep thought between Johan and Judai. For him, it has the same meaning as a trash on a roadside and will be forgotten sooner or later. Fujiwara says as reminding himself of when he was a kid and stood alone in a dark morgue. If Johan says that such a trash is important, it's fine to hold it (Fujiwara can make him understand later that Johan's bond and thought is a mere trash).

The turn is now with Johan. He draws a card and thinks that this should be a good timing. Clear Vice Dragon has 0 defense point, so it is such a good chance to get rid of it. Without waiting, he declares the attack of Gem Beast Cobalt Eagle towards Clear Vice Dragon. Gem Beast Cobalt Eagle tells Johan to leave this job on it before flying up excitedly to its enemy.

Attribute Gravity
Trap Card

Gem Beast Cobalt Eagle flies towards Clear Vice Dragon and hits its clear shield strongly. It can't penetrate the clear shield to the dragon inside. Instead, Gem Beast Cobalt Eagle is turning back and flying towards E-Hero Flame Wingman. Judai and Johan don't understand at all why Gem Beast Cobalt Eagle changes its attack target. Fujiwara chuckles before revealing the reason. It's because of his face-down trap card [Attribute Gravity ~ Zokusei Jyuuryoku - Attribute Gravity - Permanent Trap: Monsters in attack mode must attack. If there the attacking monster has a monster with an Attribute identical to its own on your opponent's side of the field, it must attack that monster].

Due to its effect, all monsters in attack position (in a turn of a player) are forced to attack a monster with the same attribute. Thus, Gem Beast Cobalt Eagle is forced to attack a Wind-Attribute monster on the opponent's field. Judai understands that his field is also considered the field of Johan's opponent. Clear Vice Dragon doesn't have any attribute when faced up on the field, so it isn't affected by Attribute Gravity. However, Gem Beast Cobalt Eagle has as same Wind attribute as E-Hero Flame Wingman. Thus, it changes an attack target to E-Hero Flame Wingman.

Fujiwara remembers what Johan and Judai said that they would like to fight each other and win (as a real duelist game). Thus, he decides to grant their wish by having them battle each other. Gem Beast Cobalt Eagle is finally burnt out by flame shoot of E-Hero Flame Wingman. This strike makes Johan's LP decreases to 2100 (2800+1400-2100). By the special effect of Gem Beast Cobalt Eagle, it remains as a cobalt gemstone in Johan's spell/trap card zone. Fujiwara claims that the battle hasn't done yet. Attribute Gravity also forces Gem Beast Sapphire Pegasus with Wind attribute to attack E-Hero Flame Wingman with the same attribute.

Repeatedly, Gem Beast Sapphire Pegasus is destroyed, and Johan's LP further decreases to 1800 (2100+1800-2100). Gem Beast Sapphire Pegasus then remains as a sapphire gemstone in Johan's spell/trap card zone. At this moment, Johan opens his face-down spell card [Rare Value - Spell: When there are 2 or more monsters that include Gem Beast in their card name in your Spell/Trap Card Zone, randomly select 1 and send it to the Graveyard and draw 2 cards from your Deck]. According to its effect, when he has 2 or more gemstones in his spell/trap card zones, he can remove one of them into the cemetery to draw 2 cards. Johan decides to send sapphire gemstone into the graveyard to draw 2 cards. Setting up 2 more cards, he ends his turn.

Noted: Gem Beast Emerald Turtle isn't forced to attack anything because it has Water attribute and there is no other Water-attribute monster on neither Fujiwara's nor Judai's fields.

Fujiwara claims the negative effect of Clear World towards Johan. At Johan's end phase, he has Gem Beast Emerald Turtle with Water attribute on the field. Clear World effect against Water attribute is to require Johan discard a card on hand into the cemetery at his end phase. Thus, he has to discard the last card on his hand into the graveyard. It's now Judai's turn to ask whether Johan is fine. Johan smiles as responding that this is nothing to him.

Attribute Chameleon
Trap Card

Judai is glad to see that Johan looks fine before running on his turn. He draws a card and declares the attack of E-Hero Flame Wingman towards Clear Vice Dragon immediately. When E-Hero Flame Wingman is about to fire flame shoot in the sky, Fujiwara opens his face-down trap card [Attribute Chameleon ~ Zokusei Henka - Attribute Chameleon - Permanent Trap: Once during your opponent's turn, you can select 1 of your opponent's monsters and declare an Attribute. The selected monster's Attribute becomes the declared Attribute until the End Phase of the current turn].

Due to its effect, until the end of Judai's turn, Fujiwara can declare an attribute for one of Judai's monsters. Judai's monster has to have this attribute until his end phase. Johan and Judai look surprised as they can expect what's coming. Fujiwara certainly declares a Water attribute for E-Hero Flame Wingman. By the effect of Attribute Gravity, E-Hero Flame Wingman is forced to attack Gem Beast Emerald Turtle with the same water attribute. Fujiwara smiles and looks happy to see both Judai and Johan killing each other.

Gem Beast Emerald Turtle is destroyed. Fujiwara claims the special effect of E-Hero Flame Wingman for Judai that although Gem Beast Emerald Turtle was in defense position, Johan has to receive damages equal to the attack points of Gem Beast Emerald Turtle. Therefore, his LP decreases to 1200 (1800-600). Judai feels sorry to Johan who got hurt by his monster. He sets up a card and ends his turn. At this end phase, Fujiwara recalls that E-Hero Flame Wingman has returned to have its original Wind attribute.

Fujiwara asks whether Judai and Johan have understood already. Because people have bonds and thoughts, they have to suffer and struggle. It's better to forget about them. Fujiwara changes his attitude a bit before saying that he should have been able to forget about them from the beginning. He turns his face away as looking in a bad mood. Judai can notice that Fujiwara is referring to something.

At the same time, the spirit of Honest appears near Judai. As Honest has expected, Fujiwara hasn't been able to forget about his parents' death. Judai is surprised by what Honest is talking about the death of Fujiwara's parents. Fujiwara looks very mad before turning to Honest and Judai, saying that he has already forgotten about them. To correct it, he explains that his parents forgot and leave him. Honest seems to understand how Fujiwara feels. This is darkness of his heart.

When Fujiwara was young, he was standing in a morgue of a hospital. Two doctors were talking that they felt sorry to Fujiwara left by his parents. They thought that at least one of them should have been alive for this young kid. At the same time, Fujiwara dropped Honest card on the floor. Honest left the card and became a monster spirit. He kneed down near Fujiwara and introduced himself as a card spirit and also Fujiwara's guardian. Little Fujiwara began to cry while begging not to forget him. Honest embraced him by his white wings, telling Fujiwara that he would be with him forever.

Honest tells the story about Fujiwara to Judai. He says that, after that, his master Fujiwara entered Duel Academia. He looked like a different person, making friend with Fubuki and Kaiser Ryo. It seemed that Fujiwara looked happy with school life and friends as he always smiled in front of people. Anyway, Honest realized well that there was some truth behind this smiling face. At Fujiwara's room, Fujiwara attached a picture of him, Fubuki, and Kaiser Ryo on a board. There were also many pictures of his friends on the board.

Fujiwara looked at these pictures with sad face and talked to himself, "Hashimoto, Takeyama, Saiki, Marufuji, Tenjoin...dad...mum...don't wanna forget....please don't forget!!". He held his face and began to cry. The spirit of Honest meanwhile was standing behind him and looking at every of his acts. After that, Fujiwara started mysterious research in his own room. He drew a ritual circle on the floor with a lot of research paper around. He was writing this drawing like crazy and hurt his finger by accidence. His blood dropped onto the ritual circle, and some darkness began to emerge.

Fujiwara was glad to see some outcome, so he kept going on this ritual circle madly. The spirit of Honest kept watching his master and tried to call him. Nevertheless, Fujiwara didn't seem to listen. He stood up and just said, "Anyhow, everyone will forget me....so...".

Honest tells Judai that, after that, his master threw all pictures of his friends on the board into a trash bin. The faces of his parents were written off. The spirit of Honest looked confused by his master's act. Fujiwara later kept Honest card into a box, so Honest hadn't come out since then.

Fujiwara tells people, "Bonds and thoughts, friends and families, to rely on those things...I will be forgotten and passed sooner or later. Thus, from now on, I will make them forget. If so, there is no more pain, isn't it? It's fine to think like a trash, trash!".

Honest tells Fujiwara that he hasn't forgotten Fujiwara. He doesn't understand why his master Fujiwara has turned out like this. Fujiwara explains that until he can follow the will of Darkness, he now doesn't suffer or has any pain at all. The spirit of Honest then disappears. Hearing what Fujiwara has just said, Judai is worried by such a deep attachment of Fujiwara with Darkness.

The turn comes to Fujiwara. Drawing a card, he changes the position of Clear Vice Dragon from defense to attack position. He aims an attack target to E-Hero Flame Wingman. By the special effect of Clear Vice Dragon, its attack points are doubled by the attack points of E-Hero Flame Wingman when it is going to attack. Thus, the total attack points become 4200 (2100*2).

Gem Split
Trap Card

As Judai is getting shocked by such a strength again, Johan opens his face-down trap card [Gem Split ~ Hougyoku Katsudan - Trap: Select 1 monster with Gem Beast in its name from your deck and send it to the Cemetery. Halve the original attack power of 1 of your opponent's monsters. If the designated target monster is destroyed, the opponent draws 1 card from his deck at the End Phase]. By its effect, he can send Gem Beast Topaz Tiger in his deck into the cemetery to halve attack points of a monster on the opponent's side of the field. Also, if the target monster is destroyed, Judai can draw a card during the opponent's end phase (Fujiwara's end phase).

Johan decides to select E-Hero Flame Wingman as his target and halves its attack points to 1050 (2100/2). Therefore, the attack points of Clear Vice Dragon go down to 2100 (4200/2). E-Hero Flame Wingman is finally destroyed by Clear Vice Dragon. This strike reduces Judai's LP to 250 (1300+1050-2100). At this moment, Judai opens his face-down trap card [Hero Signal - Trap: You can only activate this card when a monster on your side of the field is destroyed and sent to the Graveyard as a result of battle. Special Summon 1 Level 4 or lower monster from your hand or Deck that includes E-Hero in its card name].

When his monster is destroyed, Hero Signal allows him to special summon a level-4 monster from his deck onto the field. Thus, Judai selects to special summon [E-Hero Sparkman - 4/1600/1400] onto the field in attack position. At Fujiwara's end phase, Clear Vice Dragon has to return to its defense position and maintain 0 attack point. Johan tells Fujiwara that his relationship with Judai isn't a trash. Judai has just realized Johan's cards sent to the cemetery. Johan smiles and tells Judai that he has already gathered all his gemstones.

Johan now opens his face-down trap card [Rainbow's Gravity! ~ Niji No Inryoku - Trap: When there are 7 Gem Beast monsters on your side of the field and your graveyard, you can special summon Rainbow Dragon from your deck or graveyard]. This card requires Johan gather all 7 Gem Beast monsters either on the field or in the graveyard. There are Gem Beast Ruby Carbuncle, Gem Beast Emerald Turtle, and Gem Beast Sapphire Pegasus, and Gem Beast Topaz Tiger in the cemetery, and Gem Beast Amethyst Cat, Gem Beast Amber Mammoth, and Gem Beast Cobalt Eagle as gemstones on the field in spell/trap card zones.

When 7 Gem Beasts are together in the cemetery and on the field, Rainbow's Gravity allows Johan to special summon [Ultimate Gem God Rainbow Dragon ~ Kyuukyoku Hougyokushin Rainbow Dragon - 10/4000/0: This card cannot be Normal Summoned. This card can only be Special Summoned if you have cards with Gem Beast in their names on your side of the field or in your Cemetery which have a combined total of 7 types. This card cannot activate the following effects in the turn this card was Special Summoned. 1) Send all cards with Gem Beast on your side of the field to the Cemetery. Increase this card's attack power by 1000 points for each card sent to the Cemetery. You can activate this effect in your opponent's turn as well. 2) By removing all cards with Gem Beast in your Cemetery from the game, return all cards on the field to their owner's hands] onto the field in attack position. Fujiwara is stunned by the appearance of this ultimate gem god.

Clear Cube
Monster Card

Fujiwara is now confronting the ace card of Johan, Ultimate Gem God Rainbow Dragon. Judai is impressed by that Johan is great as usual to be able to summon Ultimate Gem God Rainbow Dragon at the time like this. Johan says that the effect of Ultimate Gem God Rainbow Dragon can't be activated in the turn it's special summoned. Fujiwara gets annoyed before deciding to summon [Clear Cube - ?/?/0: {This card is not treated as a Dark Attribute as long as it's face-up on the field. When this card is removed from the field, Special Summon 1 Clear Cube from your deck.}] onto the field in defense position.

At Fujiwara's end phase, Johan activates the remaining effect of Gem Split that he has already mentioned. When the target monster of Gem Split is destroyed, the opponent who owns the monster can draw a card. Previously, Gem Split designated E-Hero Flame Wingman and halved its attack points. Because E-Hero Flame Wingman was destroyed, Judai is now allowed to draw a card.

When Judai is about to draw a card, he sees the top card on his deck glowing brightly. He draws it and looks stunned. Still in Fujiwara's end phase, Fujiwara activates the negative effect of Clear World. Judai has E-Hero Sparkman with Light attribute on the field. Clear World's negative effect to a light monster is that Judai has to continue playing by revealing his cards on hand. Seeing Judai looking awkward, Fujiwara rushes him to reveal his cards.

Note: Ultimate Gem God Rainbow Dragon also has Light attribute. However, Johan doesn't have to show anything like Judai following the effect of Clear World because he doesn't have any card left on hand.

Judai reveals the two cards on hand, and they are Fake Hero and Rebirth of Neos. He also shows the card that he has just drawn, and it is Honest. If Fujiwara has already forgotten everything, Judai plans to recall or make him remember. Fujiwara just looks very mad before ending his turn.

The turn is now with Johan. Drawing a card, he considers the situation with two annoying permanent traps, Attribute Chameleon and Attribute Gravity, on Fujiwara's fields. As long as two of them remain on the field, Judai can't attack. In other words, Johan and Judai will force to attack each other forever.

Note: Attribute Gravity forces a monster to attack another monster with the same attribute. Both Ultimate Gem God Rainbow Dragon and E-Hero Sparkman have Light attribute, so they will be forced to strike against each other. Nevertheless, although Judai and Johan have monsters with different attributes, Attribute Chameleon can change them to have the same attribute until the end of a turn. No matter what, their monsters are still forced to battle each other.

Thus, Johan changes his plan by turning to eliminate those trap cards. He activates the special effect of Ultimate Gem God Rainbow Dragon. When he removes all Gem Beast monsters (Gem Beast Topaz Tiger, Gem Beast Ruby Carbuncle, Gem Beast Sapphire Pegasus, and Gem Beast Emerald Turtle) in the cemetery from play, all cards on the field must return to the players' decks.

Fujiwara hardly believes that Johan eliminates existence of Ultimate Gem God Rainbow Dragon just to destroy his cards. Johan responds that it is worth because there will be no more cards to harm or break down his friends. By this play, the annoying trap cards of Fujiwara are gone along with his Clear World. The duel fields turn back to the regular school's courtyard with a lot of Mr.T's appearance around. Fujiwara's, Judai's, and Johan's cards on the field are all returned to their deck. Everybody has to shuffle it, and the game seems to start from 0.

Fujiwara first moves by activating the special effect of Clear Cube. When it is removed from the field, he can special summon another Clear Cube from his deck onto the field in defense position. Still in Johan's turn, because he has lost everything on the field, he has only one card left on hand. It's the card that he could draw in this turn. Setting it up, he ends his turn at this point.

The turn comes to Judai. He draws a card and gets Polymerization. He then summons [Honest - 4/1100/1900: If this card is on the field, you can return this card to your hand. If a Level 7 or higher Warrior-type monster is on the field, by sending this card from your hand to the Cemetery, during this turn, add attack power equal to the attack power of an opponent's monster doing battle to the designated monster's own] onto the field in attack position.

Fujiwara tells Judai that it's useless. He has already forgotten Honest and has never remembered such a trash. Judai is not pleased with Fujiwara's words to call his monster like that. Honest denies and says that his master hasn't forgotten him, and he has never forgotten his master, either.

Judai then declares the attack of Honest to destroy Clear Cube. When Clear Cube id destroyed, Fujiwara again activates its special effect to special summon another Clear Cube from his deck onto the field in defense position. Judai doesn't do anything else but ends his turn at this point.

In Fujiwara's turn, he draws a card, and it's the only card on his hand. He then sacrifices Clear Cube to summon [Clear Vicious Knight - ?/2300: {This card is not treated as a Dark Attribute as long as it's face up on the field. If there are monsters on your opponent's side of the field, you can summon this card with 1 sacrifice. When there are no cards beside this one in your hand or on your field, you can add the attack power of the monster with the highest attack power on your opponent's side of the field to this card's attack power.}] onto the field in attack position.

According to the special effect of Clear Vicious Knight, it requires only 1 tribute if there is a monster on the opponent's field. There is Honest on Judai's field, so Fujiwara could use only 1 Clear Cube to sacrifice summon Clear Vicious Knight. At this moment, he no longer has any card on hand.

Fujiwara explains the remaining effect of Clear Vicious Knight that when this monster is the only card on the field and there is no other card on his hand, he can add the attack points of an opponent's monster, which has the highest attack points on the opponent sides, into Clear Vicious Knight's.

Johan has no monster, and Judai has only Honest. Therefore, the attack points of Honest are added to Clear Vicious Knight. Clear Vicious Knight's attack points become 3400 (2300+1100). Fujiwara declares the attack of Clear Vicious Knight towards Honest immediately. At this moment, Johan opens his face-down trap card [The One Worth Protecting ~ Mamorubeki Mono - Trap: You can only activate this card when an opponent's monster attacks. Select 1 monster with an attack higher than that monster from your deck and send it to the Cemetery. Reduce all Battle Damage toward that monster to 0 and you will lose Life Points equal to the attack power of the monster sent to the Cemetery] in order to save Judai.

Clear Vicious Knight
Monster Card
The One Worth Protecting
Trap Card

This card can be activated only when an opponent attacks. Johan is also required to send a monster with higher attack points than the attacking monster, Clear Vicious Knight, from his deck into the cemetery. There is only one monster in his deck that falls in this condition, and it's Ultimate Gem God Rainbow Dragon (4000 ATK), which was previously sent back to his deck by its own special effect. Thus, Johan has to discard it from his deck into the cemetery to satisfy the condition of The One Worth Protecting.

In addition to the effect of this trap card, any battle damage towards the target of Clear Vicious Knight is reduced to 0, and Johan instead will lose LP equal to the attack points of Ultimate Gem Beast Rainbow Dragon. As a result of this whole effect, Honest doesn't receive any battle damage from Clear Vicious Knight's strike, and Judai doesn't lose any LP. However, Johan's LP goes down to 0 (1200-4000).

Johan is falling onto his knees as Judai is calling him with concern. Johan tells Judai that this hasn't been finished. It's good to have only Judai remain until the end of this battle. He believes that Judai and Honest will be able to defeat Fujiwara by their bond and hopes that they won't give up.

Fuijwara is very irritated now and yells that this is enough for such a bond or relationship. He thinks that Judai is just stuck to useless thought and is finally defeated. In other words, Johan has already lost to Judai. As Fujiwara has expected, such a bond that Johan believes is just a trash, and time is up for Johan. Johan eventually collapses onto the ground and passes out. The spirit of Gem Beast Ruby Carbuncle then appears on his back and looks worried about its master. Judai looks at Johan before turning back to his game quickly.

The turn comes to Judai. Drawing a card, he plays [Hope of Fifth - Spell: Select 5 E-Hero monsters from your Graveyard, add them to your Deck, then shuffle it. After that, draw 2 cards from your Deck. If this is the only card in your hand and you have no other cards on your side of the field, you can draw 1 more card from your Deck] to return 5 monsters in the cemetery to his deck, shuffle it, and draw 2 new cards.

The 5 E-Hero monsters returned to his deck are E-Hero Wildman, E-Hero Featherman, E-Hero Burst Lady, E-Hero Clayman, and E-Hero Bubbleman. After shuffling his deck, he draws 2 cards and plays spell card [O-Over Soul - Spell: Special summon 1 Normal Monster that includes E-Hero in its name from your Graveyard] to special summon [E-Hero Neos - 7/2500/2000] from his graveyard onto the field in attack position.

Name of A Friend
Spell Card

Next, Judai plays spell card [Name of A Friend ~ Tomo No Namae - Spell: Activate by designating 1 monster in your opponent's Cemetery as a target. After activation, this becomes a Monster card (Spellcaster-type, Light Attribute, Level 1, ATK 0/DEF 0) and Special Summon it in a Monster Card Zone. (Treat it as a Magic card as well.) Treat this card's name as the name of the monster that was targeted]. By its effect, Judai has to designate a monster in the opponent's cemetery as a target and can special summon it onto his field.

Judai begins to argue what Fujiwara said that he and Johan (or their bond) were just a trash and that Johan was defeated for relationship. He says that the relationship of Johan has leaded the game to victory. Fujiwara doubts what Judai is talking about. A card in Johan's graveyard meanwhile begins to glow. Judai explains that Name of A Friend is the bond of him, Johan, and Honest. The name of a monster that Judai aims to designate following the effect of this spell card lies in Johan's cemetery. He asks Johan lend him power before calling Ultimate Gem God Rainbow Dragon and special summoning it onto his field in attack position.

Fujiwara gets pretty shocked by how existence of Ultimate Gem God Rainbow Dragon that has already been disappeared can reappear. Judai hopes Fujiwara understand well because Fujiwara hasn't really forgotten Honest. Fujiwara is persistent and keeps on arguing that he has already forgotten everything. Judai still doesn't think so. It's impossible that the most important persons like Fujiwara's parents can be forgotten.

Judai believes that Fujiwara didn't throw away Honest because he kept the card protected well and preciously in a box. Similarly, Fujiwara's parents left hope and entrusted everything to their precious son. They actually didn't leave or forget him. Honest agrees to what Judai said. He tells Fujiwara that he has come back for his master.

Fujiwara has begun to get confused and hesitate. He still doesn't accept his true feeling, saying that it's too late now. Judai doesn't think so and tries to explain that as long as a bond exists, things can be done over again. He will show it to Fujiwara.

Judai plays Polymerization on his hand to fuse E-Hero Neos and Ultimate Gem God Rainbow Dragon on the field into [Rainbow Neos - 10/4500/3000: This monster's Fusion Summon can only be conducted with the above cards and this monster cannot be Special Summoned other than by Fusion Summoning. Once per turn, send a card of a type selected from the following to the Cemetery, and according to it, you can return the designated target(s) to their decks and shuffle; 1) 1 Monster on your field: All monsters on your opponent's side of the field; 2) Magic or Trap on your side of the field: All Magic or Trap cards on your opponent's side of the field; 3) 1 card on the top of your deck: All cards in your opponent's Cemetery].

Fujiwara is amazed by seeing Rainbow Neos with 4500 attack points but he still believes that miracle still can't occur. By the special effect of Clear Vicious Knight, its attack points go over Rainbow Neos and become 6800 (2300+4500). Judai doesn't say anything but looks at Fujiwara's act calmly.

At this moment, another character of Fujiwara begins to show up. His voice is overlap with someone's voice while he is telling Judai to go to the world of Darkness. As Judai has expected, he realizes that true Darkness is inside Fujiwara as a shadow attaching to his mind. He calls him "Mr.Darkness" who has appeared by the first time. Fujiwara still doesn't understand what Judai is talking about. He looks at his hand and notices something trying to move out from his body.

Judai tells Fujiwara that it's time for him to go back for Honest. Suddenly, dark aura begins to burn out from Fujiwara's body, making Fujiwara groan in pain. Honest looks at his master with worry. Judai activates the special effect of Honest at this timing. By returning it to his hand and sending it to the cemetery, he can increase the attack points of Rainbow Neos by the attack points of Clear Vicious Knight.

Judai tells Honest to save Fujiwara and take him back. Fujiwara is struggling in pain of the black flame around his body. Honest flies up and lands behind Fujiwara. Because of its special effect, Judai sends the card of Honest into the cemetery to increase the attack points of Rainbow Neos to 11300 (4300+6800). See his master groaning in pain, Honest embraces Fujiwara with his angel wings. His light eventually makes darkness separate from his master's body. Judai is glad to see that Fujiwara is finally back.

Fujiwara seems to return to his normal personality. He looks soft and turns to Honest. Fujiwara doubts whether he really isn't forgotten. Honest smiles and convinces his master that he has never forgotten him. At the same time, darkness separate from Fujiwara's body is flying up and forming into a dark monster. It is full of anger to Judai who did this. Judai looks angry before declaring the critical attack of Rainbow Neos towards Clear Vicious Knight.

Clear Vicious Knight is destroyed along with the dark monster separate from Fujiwara's heart. This dark monster seems to hold the remaining 800LP of Fujiwara. When Rainbow Neos destroys Clear Vicious Knight, this dark monster is destroyed along with it as its LP decreases to 0 (800+6800-11300). Honest is now holding Fujiwara and protecting him from the ultimate strikes of Rainbow Neos, which also attack and destroy all appearances of Mr.T around the field.

The game is over by the victory of Judai. Johan eventually gets up and sees only Judai standing. This makes him able to guess that Judai is the winner. On the other side, Fujiwara is sitting on the ground while Honest is holding him. He turns to thank Honest for his help. Honest smiles and welcomes his master back from darkness. Fujiwara finally loses his consciousness and collapses. Honest places him gently onto the ground before he disappears.

Johan walks to Judai and is glad to see that Judai finally made it. However, something is strange. Judai and Johan look up and still see the full solar eclipse. They don't understand why darkness still remains after Judai has defeated Fujiwara and true darkness in his heart.

to be continued...

Johan Why hasn't the solar eclipse ended yet? Haven't we defeated Darkness already?
Judai Probably, the world has been wrapped by this darkness...
Johan Have you heard it, Judai? Some sound inside the school...
Judai Next, [The Combo of Terror! Zero and Infinity]. That is...people around the world have disappeared. Johan! Fujiwara! Who? Are you true Darkness? Show yourself! Show me your identity, Darkness!
