"Once , this appearance's left behind. Now, here's an dangerusly broken stair", Manjyome is describing each scene while recording a video and moving up to Judai's room at Osiris Red dorm. When the door is open, there are Sho, Judai, and Kenzan having some argument. Sho asks why the Ra Yellow guy like Kenzan has to be in this room, telling him to move out. Kenzan refuses and claims that Judai's charisma is important for his life now. Judai tries to compromise. Since they don't know whether Red dorm will be turned down in one day, he thinks that now they should have more friends. Anyway, Sho still disagrees because he would like to claim Judai's little brother title only for himself. In other words, he doesn't want Kenzan to become his candidate. When Sho turns back to the door, Manjyome enters the room and calls them poor and pathetic guys. Sho asks what Manjyome is doing. Manjyome replies that Manjyome room has already been finished. It's wide and has a bright spa room with good design for treatment. He asks whether people would like to see it. Sho and Kenzen say that they would love to as they actually feel indifferent. Only Judai becomes excited by the new room of Manjyome and eagerly wants to see the spa. Therefore, Manjyome tells them to follow him to the room. When they turn back, they see Asuka standing in front of the room with her belonging. Kenzan asks who she is because he has never seen Asuka before. Then, people become very surprised when Asuka says "I already quitted Blue dorm. Could I join with you guys here?".

On the other side, Vice Principle Napolean is talking to Temp Principle Chronos about the star project. Temp Principle Chronos tells him not to be worried while showing the picture of the next target, Marufuji Sho. They plan to let him duel against a Blue student. In case he can win, he will be promoted to Ra Yellow and finally may move up to Blue rank. Temp Principle Chronos plans to utilize the title of Kaiser's little brother while Vice Principle Napolean is glad by this chance to reduce Judai's followers and to turn down Osiris Red.

People are getting amazed by the new look of Manjyome's room with two floors, pool, and larger spaces. Kenzan is so surprised that he wonders whether here is the same Red dorm. Asuka feels very impressed and asks whether she can really use this room. Judai is afraid to refuse and says that this room belongs to Manjyome. However, Manjyome stops him and replies Asuka shortly that she is very welcomed here. Judai notes that, in this case, Manjyome has to return and join his small room. That's what it should be to let Asuka stay here. Anyway, Sho asks Asuka what happened to Blue dorm that brought her here. Asuka says that it's such a big issue as opening her bag and bringing out a red dress. Temp Principle Chronos wants her to get on this dress to sing and duel. Sho wonders whether Asuka means that she has to become a school idol. Asuka explains that it's such a selfish Blue idol training course. Manjyome imagines Asuka in the red costome until his face becomes red. She may look very pretty in that dress. Asuka can catch him and asks what's wrong with it. By the way, Judai asks why Asuka has to bring the cloth that she dislikes with her. Asuka expresses her uncomfortable feeling to answer, and Manjyome notices it. He turns back to Judai and calls him "A fool! ~ Baka!". Since Asuka is going to sue the head of Blue dorm, Temp Principle Chronos, she needs the dress as the proof. Asuka agrees and further says that when Principle Samechima is away, Temp Principle Chronos and Vice Principle Napolean are over doing as they like. Judai also agrees because he can't forgive them for their plan to turn down Osiris dorm.

After that, Misawa rushes into the room with urgent news. Judai greets him as if he hasn't seen him for a while as Kenzan wonders who Misawa is. Misawa reports that Sho has just been obligated to duel against a Blue opponent named [Kochou Ran]. If he wins this game, his rank will be promoted to Ra Yellow. This lady is well known as Insect Princess of Blue. Judai thinks that if the oppoent is really strong, Sho's spirit should burn out. It may be a tough duel that Sho can show his true power. Nevertheless, Sho is getting scared and merely saying that he can't make it. He can't oppose any Blue opponent, and believes that he will be defeated in front of the large audiences. Sho then cries out loud before running away from the room. Kenzan doesn't get what the hell is happening to him and begins to run after him. Judai just looks back with worry.

In the room, Kenzan asks Sho directly why he is running away. He thinks that it's such a good chance to show his cool performance in front of the large audiences. Sho covers himself inside the sheet. He doesn't think that it's the good chance to show off but the chance to get embrarassed. Kenzan can't stand his act until he has to take out the sheet. Sho is rolled around before falling onto the floor. Kenzan tries to explain in Dinosaur term that Mushi-San (Insect-San = Ran) has lived since the ancient time like an old dinosaur. Therefore, her position is different from his. It's miserable if Sho is gonna waste this evolution chance. All living things have to accomplish the evolution and survive. If they can't do that, they will become extinct or be ruined. Sho can't say anything, but just looks more worried. At night, Sho is staying alone at the cliff and reminding himself of what Kenzan said previously about the evolution. He takes out Power Bond and thinks of the situation that happened during the prior year. His brother is moving to World League while Judai has become the real hero of the school. Hayato finally found and pursued his own road, so did Manjyome. As Kenzan said, everybody evolved, but only Sho hasn't changed yet. If he is staying like this, nothing will be changed. Sho begins to imagine when he is running after people dressing up and saying good bye to him on a cruise. Judai says that everybody is moving to World League now. Sho feels very depressed if his friends leave him like that. Thus, Sho keeps himself up, thinking that he should succeed something for his future.

Next day, people are ready at Duel Arena, waiting for the promotion duel of Sho. Manjyome is also walking there. Then, Sho interrupts and asks him give a letter to Judai. Manjyome isn't pleased with the way Sho acted, so Sho bows himself and says PLEASE properly. Manjyome receives his letter while Sho is leaving. When he opens and looks what's in the letter, there appears a card that makes him very surprised.

Inside the duel arena, people are getting excited by the duel of Kaiser's little brother and Insect Princess Ran. Vice Principle Napolean's just realized that there are many people paying attention to this game. Temp Principle Chronos says that this is certainly what it should be. Kaiser's little brother title is enough to attract people. Manjyome finally comes to his seat and joins his friends. He looks very worried while holding Sho's letter in his hand. Judai says that he's almost late. On the stage, Ran starts to greet Sho. She thinks that he is such a plain boy that she hardly believes that he is Kaiser's little brother. Ran says as showing Kaiser's picture in her pendant. Judai feels annoyed by her sudden greetings, and Kenzan doesn't feel good at all. Asuka explains that Ran is such an active fan of Ryo. Then, Ran says that if she wins this game, Temp Principle Chronos will promote her to World League. Sho realizes that it's the place where his brother is now. In order to go and see Kaiser, Ran tells Sho that she will do her best in this game while calling Sho [Boy]. Sho is getting mad by this word that makes him look like a little kid and won't let her do so. Standing by their duels, they declare to start the game.

Prickle Fairy
Monster Card

First turn comes to Ran. Drawing a card, she summons [Prickle Fairy ~ Ibara No Yousei - 4/300/2000: Your opponent cannot attack Insect-Type monsters unless he/she destroys this card first. The Battle Position of a monster that battles with this card is changed to Defense Position at the end of the Damage Step] in a defense position. Ran claims that as long as this monster isn't destroyed, Sho can't attack any of her insect monsters.

Turn comes to Sho. He draws a card and plays it immediately. It's the magic card, Shield Crush, that allows him to destroy a defending monster on the field [Shield Crush - Magic: Choose 1 Monster on the Field in defense mode and destroy it]. Thus, he certainly selects to destroy Princkle Fairy. After that, he normal summons Steamroid in an attack position and lets it attack Ran directly [Steamroid - 4/1800/1800: If this card attack your opponent's monster, increase the attack of this card by 500 points during the damage step only. If this card is attacked by your opponent's monster, decrease the attack of this card by 500 points during the damage step only]. After she gets the direct hit, her LP reduces to 2200 (4000-1800). People seem very impressed by Sho's great move, admiring him as a real little brother of Kaiser. Sho hardly believes that he is getting the cheer from the audiences. His face even becomes red. He feels very proud while telling himself that he can do it. Then, he laughs out loud before ending the turn. Judai can't stand seeing Sho's boasting act as closing his eyes. He says that this is what Sho's bad behavior is.

Insect Princess
Monster Card

Even Ran also thinks that Sho is very insolent. In her turn, drawing a card, she summons Pinch Hopper into an attack position [Pinch Hopper ~ Daida Butta - 4/1000/1200: When this card on your side of the Field is sent to the Graveyard, you can Special Summon 1 Insect-Type Monster from your hand]. Sho claims that her insect monster isn't strong enough to oppose his Steamroid anyway. However, Ran plays Multiplication of Ants that allows her to sacrifice Pinch Hopper to special summon two Army Ant Token with 500 attack points for each one onto the field [Multiplication of Ants ~ Ari No Soushoku - Magic: Offer 1 Insect-Type Monster on your side of the field as a Tribute. Special Summon 2 "Army Ant Tokens" Insect-Type/EARTH/4 Stars/ATK 500/DEF 1200 on your side of the field. The tokens cannot be used as a Tribute for a Tribute Summon]. Sho still looks down her monsters and says that their attack points aren't scary at all. Ran's target is actually at the effect of Pinch Hopper. She explains that when it's sent to the graveyard, she can special summon Insect Princess onto the field [Insect Princess - 6/1900/1200: While this card is face-up on the Field, the face-up Insect Sub- Type Monsters on your opponents Field change to attack mode. Whenever this card destroys an Insect Sub-Type Monster as a result of Battle, increase this card's attack strength by 500]. Kenzan thinks that Ran may be really a smart and scary girl. Sho looks very amazed by the monster that could be summoned without tributes.

Insect Pheromone
Magic Card

People begin to be worried about Sho. Ran explains that effect of Insect Princess that if it can destroy his insect monster in battle, its attack points can increase by 500 points. Sho feels sorry to her and claims that he has no insect-type monster in his deck. At this moment, Ran smirks before playing the field magic [Pollinated Flower Garden ~ Chuubaika no Sono - Field Magic: Any level 4 or lower Insect Sub-Type Monsters on your Field under your control are switched to the control of the opponent]. The battlefield then changes into giant flower garden. Due to its effect, her insect monsters would change into the control of the opponent. Thus, two Army Ant Tokens move to Sho's field. Ran further equips Insect Pheromone with Insect Princess [Insect Pheromone - Equipment Magic: This card can only be Equipped to an Insect Princess. If this Monster destroys a Monster as a result of Battle, you can force 1 of your opponent's Insect Sub Type Monsters face-up on the Field to battle with this Monster during the same Battle Phase]. Then, she first lets Insect Princess attack an Army Ant Token. When it's destroyed, Sho's LP decreases to 2600 (4000+500-1900). Once an insect monster on Sho's field is destroyed, Insect Princess' attack points go up to 2400 (1900+500) following the effect of Pollinated Flower Garden. In addition to the effect of Insect Pheromone, Ran can force the remaining Army Ant Token to attack Insect Princess. When the second Army Ant Token is destroyed, Sho's LP more decreases to 700 (2600+500-2400) while Insect Princess' strength points further increases to 2900 (2400+500). Ran then ends her turn here.

Sho starts to get scared and accepts that Ran is actually strong. Kenzan yells that it's absolutely what it should. He says that although Mushi-San (Insect-San = Ran) has a small physical body, she has evolved repeatedly since the ancient time. Thus, she has presently become the survival warrior. Judai tells Kenzan that he believes Sho will not be defeated. Kenzan still looks uncertain. Judai says that Kenzan doesn't know the true strength of Sho. Whenever Sho has to do, he can do it. Sho also holds a triumph card. At this moment, Manjyome turns back to Judai and looks very concerned by his words.

Submarineroid
Monster Card

Although Sho is getting depressed, he claps his face to gain the fighting spirit back. He reminds himself of what his brother taught him. At any time, he should give respect to an opponent and do his best until the end. Also, Judai has encouraged him not to give up easily. Some chance will certainly come. Ran tells Sho that he has a choice to surrender now. Sho, of course, gets his fighting spirit and moves on bravely. Drawing a card, he changes the position of Steamroid into a defense position. He then summons Submarineroid into an attack position [Submarineroid - 4/800/1800: This card can attack the opposing player directly. If so, the battle damages done to opponent would be equal to this card's original ATK. Also, you may switch this card's mode to defense mode at the end of Damage Step]. Although Submarineroid has only 800 attack points, Sho actually aims to its special effect that can attack Ran directly. Submarineroid then disappears from the field, moves straight to Ran, and attacks her directly from the ground. Thus, Ran's LP reduces to 1400 (2200-800). According to another effect, Submarineroid can change into a defense position after the attack.

Judai wonders why Sho didn't activate Power Bond. If he had done so, he would have probably won in this turn. Manjyome tells him that Sho doesn't input Power Bond into his deck, giving Judai the letter that Sho previously gave him. When Judai opens the letter and sees Power Bond, he gets mad at Manjyome. All people misunderstand that Manjyome intentionlly takes this card from Sho. Manjyome has to correct his friends that Sho gave this card to him by himself. Judai looks very worried and doesn't understand why Sho has to do this. In the game, Sho sets up a reversed card, and ends his turn.

Entry Forbidden! No Entry!
Trap Card

It's now Ran's turn. She draws a card and summons Magic Longicorn in an attack position [Magic Longicorn - 4/600: The effect of Magic cards the controller of this Monster while its face-up on the Field in attack mode plays has their effects negated]. Then, she actviates the special effect of the field magic Pollinated Flower Garden, forcing Magic Longicorn to move to Sho's field. Ran claims that she will win if her attack succeeds. She lets Insect Princess attack it quickly. At this moment, Sho opens his reversed trap card [Entry Forbidden! No Entry! ~ Shinnyu Kenshi! No Entry! - Trap: Switch a Monster on your opponent's Field into face-up defense mode. Send 1 card from your opponent's hand to the Cemetery]. This card forces Insect Princess to change into a defense position, so Ran's attack becomes invalid. Due to its another effect, Ran has to discard a card into her cemetery. Ran has only one card left on her hand. When she sends it to the cemetery, she has nothing left. Therefore, she has to end this turn. Professor Chronos feels relieved that Sho could survive safely. Kenzan thinks that Sho is still doing well. Judai convinces by saying that Sho is actually strong and cheering him out loud.

Ran asks whether it's true that Sho has been Yuki Judai's henchman [Koshiginchaku = henchman, one's shadow] at the drop out Red dorm. Sho wonders what kind of problem she has. Ran suggests Sho act as a true henchman and not disturb her dream to meet Kaiser. Sho argues and yells out loud, revealing his whole feeling. Once, he was just chasing after Judai and his dear brother. However, he has just made up his mind that he would change himself. From this point on, he will keep up to their level and walk together with them. Meanwhile, Judai looks amazed a bit by Sho's strong intention.

"Shut Up! It's true that when I was young, I was just chasing. I just chased after my Dear Brother and Big Brother...just chased after. However, I have already decided. I will no longer chase after. I will get stronger, and then keep on walking together with them."

Vehicroid Jumbo Drill
Monster Card

In the final turn of Sho, drawing a card, he activates the magic card [Vehicroid Connection Zone - Magic: Special Summon 1 Vehicroid from your Fusion Deck by sending that Monster's Fusion Components from your hand and/or Field into the Cemetery. This card cannot be affected by Magic, Trap, or Monster card effects]. Ran says sorry to Sho that his activation may not be possible. Since Magic Longicorn is on his field, it blocks Sho from activating any magic effect. However, Magic Longicorn is reflected when it tries to destroy Sho's magic card. Sho explains that Vehicroid Connection Zone can't be destroyed by any effect of magic, trap, or monster card. According to its another effect, sending two fusion component monsters, Drillroid on his hand and Submarineroid on his field, into the graveyard, he can special summon Super Vehicroid - Jumbo Drill onto the field [Super Vehicroid Jumbo Drill - 8/3000/2000: Fusion Summon of this card can only be conducted with the above mentioned cards. If this card attacks monster in defense position and the attack strength exceeds the defense strength of that monster, inflict the difference as battle damage to your opponent's life points]. He lets it attack Insect Princess quickly. After the attack, Sho once declares its special effect. When it attacks the defending monster with lower defense points, the damages equal to the differences deal directly to the opponent. Since Insect Princess' defense points are 1200, Ran's LP eventually decreases to 0 (1400+1200-3000).

Sho shows up his victory sign among the great cheer of the audiences. All people are glad with him. Ran feels so upset and embrarassed because she already lost the chance to go and see Ryo in Pro League. She just calls out Ryo name out loud. At Osiris, people are getting surprised by the fact that Sho is going to move to Ra Yollow as a result of the promotion. Manjyome thinks that this will follow Temp Principle Chronos' plan to get rid of Osiris Red. Kenzan asks Sho what Red dorm will become next when Sho leaves. While Sho seemingly hesitates due to their words, Judai firmly tells him to go. He understands Sho well that he wants to go to Ra Yellow to get stronger. Judai then returns Power Bond to Sho. Sho reminds himself of what Ryo told him a year ago. Ryo said that Sho could use this card only if he could give respect to an opponent. Sho thinks that this card isn't necessary for him. From now on, he intends to get stronger by his own power, so he tries give it to Judai. Anyway, Judai tells him to keep it because it's an important and memorable card Sho got from Kaiser. Judai hopes Sho will do well. Misawa then walks in and tells Sho that they will become rivals from now on. Sho turns back and asks again whether Misawa is also here. Misawa gets mad as if he's ignored, saying that he is always here.

People are sending Sho who is leaving for Ra Yollow. However, Sho later returns to Osiris Red with his Ra Yellow uniform. Sho claims his fried shrimp back from Kenzan's mouth. Kenzan gives it back while asking whether Sho hasn't moved to Ra Yellow already. Sho says that he still wants to have a meal with Judai. Also, he comes to stop Kenzan because he won't give the title of Judai's little brother to him. Sho still keeps on provoking him until Kenzan gets mad. Manjyome tells them to become quiet during the meal. Meanwhile, Judai takes Manjyome's fried shrimp from his plate. Thus, Manjyome yells at him, asking for his fried shrimp back. Nobody becomes quiet at all.
