Summary
An officer
named Saruwatari is receiving an internal phone from another
officer, having asked about the current situation. Saruwatari
replies weakly he and his men can no longer bear here before
he falls down and leaves the phone. Around him are many men
lying down and losing consciousness. The officer tries to
tell Saruwatari to hang on, but the line is disconnected.
He is curious what's going on there. Suddenly, the elevator
on the floor that the officer is staying along with his men
is open. From inside, Jyonouchi and Honda appear abruptly
and begin to knock officers one by one. They have been beating
people from the bottom floor up until here.
While Jyonouchi is kicking people in the front line, Honda
turns back to ask Mokuba which direction they should go next.
Mokuba is leading to the other side of the floor. Honda is
going after him, telling Jyonouchi to follow quickly. Thus,
Jyonouchi starts to run away while many men are chasing after
all of them.
The knocked-down officer tells other men not to let Jyonouchi
and his friends able to approach to Duel Ring Server. Although
he also tries to let his men follow them, every officer is
totally knocked out by Jyonouchi. While running, Jyonouchi
murmurs that a duelist like him has to become a fighter. As
a duelist, he wants to advance by winning. However, he is
now running for Yugi as thinking of him.
On
the other side, little Yugi is very shocked by the sudden
defeat of Gekkou. Gekkou falls onto his knees while Richie
declares officially that he finally won. Gekkou is very mad,
and his eyes are looking at Richie very unfriendly. Richie
says that Gekkou was too hurried to win the game. He recalls
what has just happened until the game ended up like this.
Previously, Gekkou declared the double attack of Boomerang
Elf and Angel07 against Richie directly. He looked very confident
and hoped to advance to the next step after this strike. Suddenly,
Richie opened his face-down trap card [Flash
of Bewitching ~ Genwaku no Senkou - Trap: Activate this card
when the opponent attacks by two monsters or more. Select
and take control of the monster with the lowest attack points
against the remaining monsters], and there appears
such bright light. Little Yugi was very amazed by what this
light was.
Richie explained that Gekkou's monster would be blinded by
this card. The monster in this light couldn't make a decision.
In other words following the effect of the card, Richie could
take control over the lowest attacking monster, Boomerang
Elf, and make it strike another attacking monster. Thus, Gekkou's
monsters had to fight against each other. Blinded Boomerang
Elf threw its boomerang towards Angel07.
Little
Yugi saw that the situation was very bad. If Boomerang Elf
(1800 Atk), which now became Richie's wall monster, attacked
Angel07 (2500 Atk), the difference battle damages would inflict
to Gekkou since both of them were Gekkou's monsters. Angel07
also released light beam from its forehead to Boomerang Elf.
Meanwhile, Gekkou opened his face-down trap card [Amulet
of Kindness ~ Jiai No Amulet - Equipment Trap: Equipment Trap:
Equip this card to a monster on the field. Any excessive damage
you get from the equipped monster is reduced to 0],
equipping it with Boomerang Elf. This trap could reduce any
battle damage he would receive to 0. However, little Yugi
and Gekkou were very shocked by seeing the attack of Angel07
passing Boomerang Elf to attack Richie directly instead.
This attack reduced Richie's LP to 600 (3100-2500). Richie
actually opened his second face-down trap card [Skimming
Bullet ~ Kasumeru Dangan - Activate this card in the opponent's
battle phase. Inflict attack damages of attacking monster
and counter monster to both sides]. By its effect,
the damages from the attacking and counter attacking monsters
would be inflicted to both sides. That meant Richie had to
receive the damages from Angel07, and he already did. Thus,
the rest was that Gekkou had to receive the damages from Boomerang
Elf, which now was in the control of Richie. Getting the hit
from Boomerang Elf, his own monster, Gekkou's LP decreased
to 0 (700-1800). This totally explained how Gekkou was defeated.
Little Yugi steps in and asks how Gekkou is. Richie tells
Gekkou that normally Gekkou should have been able to counter
or cope with the duel. The reason why he couldn't do that
was because he still had a family called Yakou. This makes
him different from other Pegasus minions. His feeling that
really wanted to save Yakou made him too hurry to make the
conclusion in the game.
Little Yugi seems to disagree, asking whether Richie means
that the person would be defeated since he had the feeling
towards the only one important brother. From his understanding,
little Yugi realizes that the card professors also fight for
Pegasus. Richie explains that it may be true that he and his
people fight for Pegasus. Nevertheless, Gekkou's protection
duel is different.
Actually,
Richie and other Pegasus minions lived like bullies in underground.
The person who taught them the living way of duelists was
Pegasus-Sama. Thus, this time, he expects to attach life into
Pegasus-Sama, and this is the duel of resolution. Finishing
his words, Richie turns back. He finally notes that the feeling
to be afraid of losing a dear person is different. Seeing
Richie going to walk away, little Yugi tells him to stop and
looks very worried. Richie says coldly to little Yugi that
all of Yugi's victories had been entrusted to Gekkou. Because
Gekkou was defeated, the road advancing to the next step of
Yugi has ended up here.
Gekkou
begins to cry as Richie is leaving. Seeing Richie gone already,
Gekkou apologizes little Yugi for his defeat. He still keeps
on crying heavily. Little Yugi runs into the gate that Richie
entered, asking him open the door. He pleads and says that
he has to go to where Yakou is. If he can't go, he can't save
Anzu. Realizing that he may not be able to save his important
person, little Yugi begins to cry heavily as falling onto
his knees in front of the door.
On the other side of the door, Richie is hearing the crying
sound but feels nothing. An officer steps in and admires his
splendid job. Richie asks the officer about the current situation.
The officer replies that Yakou-Sama has already started the
last phase of the ready project. However, there is little
problem. Kaiba Mokuba and a duelist named Jyonouchi are cooperateing
each other to approach into Duel Ring Server. Richie is getting
furious and asks why people didn't try to stop them. The officer
is afraid that they have no enough capability of doing so.
Richie decides to go and stop them by himself, asking where
they have been by now. At this moment, Bandit Kidth staying
up from the upper floor is looking down towards Richie. He
quickly jumps down and hits Richie at his face until Richie
is blown away. He says that the just paid back what he owed
Richie previously, laughing out loud. Richie becomes very
angry and tries to kick him back. He knows that Kidth passes
the experiment body for the summoning of Pegasus-Sama, wondering
whether he wants to die again. Kidth asks back whether Richie
really knows about the experiment.
Kidth declares that he has been living because he has two
persons whom he needs to crush down. One is Pegasus and another
one is Jyonouchi. Richie isn't in his list. Also, Kidth notes
that alhtough he is able to return to the world, he hasn't
been familiar with the new rule yet. Thus, this time, Richie
will be Kidth's experiment body. Kidth challenges Richie to
duel him directly.
