[ Translating ]

Mana could finally summon her own Ka, Black Magician Girl, helping her master, Mahado in form of Black Magician on time. Mahado feels glad to see strength of his student. It means that Mana still kept well on magic training. At the tmoment, the other priests are moving to see Pharaoh, passing through and striking against several dead spirits. The priest Seto almost got the attack but he was saved by Double Headed Jackal Warrior of Shada. Shada tells his friends to go to help Pharaoh while he will stay here to withstand the dead spirits. Thus, Shada and his troop continues attacking those dead spirits.

Mana climbs down to join Pharaoh and Mahado, fighting against Bakura. Anyway, Bakura seems unplease. Mahado and Mana together begin the attack, Evil Wave (Marendan). Meanwhile, spirit shield of  comes out to block the attack for Diabound. No matter how much power they lauch together, it still can't penetrate the spirit shield. Also, the spirit shield transforms itself into two more Diabound. Three Diabound continue attacking at once. Mana and Mahado launch Evil Wave again to destroy two Diabound created by the dead spirits. However, the last one can launch its power to strike Mahado strongly. As a result, Pharaoh also gets a lot of damage. Bakura still lets Diabound go on the attack. At the same time, Mana casts her spell to activate four magic hats to hide her and Pharaoh's body. Yet, Diabound still can destroy all hats and take damage to them. Without more protection, Pharaoh is going to get such a strong hit from Diabound. Suddenly, Dios'sword is thrown to obstruct the strike. Seto, Karim, Isis and Shimon have finally reached Pharaoh and saved him in time.

[ Mana ]	Master-Sama!
[ Black Magician Mahado ]	Mana, I was finally saved by you. While I didn't exist, you still kept on training without laziness.
[ Mana ]	Hai! (Yes!)
[ Mana climbs down to join Pharaoh and Mahado ]
[ Pharaoh Yugi ]	Mana!
[ Mana ]	Prince-Sama!
[ The theif Bakura]	Shi! There is more fish coming!
[ Black Magician Mahado ]	Let's go, Mana!
[ Mana ]	Hai! Master-Sama!
[ Black Magician Mahado ]	Take this, Bakura! Marendan! (Evil Wave)

Everybody is glad to see that Pharaoh is safe. Also, Isis feels happy to see that Mahado could be finally resurrected. Even Shimon admires Mahado who is the greatest magic master in this country. Anyway, Seto reminds everybody of Bakura. People can enjoy when Bakura is finally defeated. Before the next fight, Pharaoh's Ba (Power=Life Point) remains very little. Shada tells Isis to increase it up, so Isis summons her Ka, Holy Elf, to power up Ba of Pharaoh. Seeing that, Bakura is getting annoyed by Ka which has ability of regaining Ba. Although Pharaoh can gain back his Ba, Shimon tells him to stay and let the priests handle this work. Bakura feels happy to see that he doesn't have to waste time on gathering the rests of millennium items. The priests have brought them to him here. When the priests are ready, the next battle is going to begin. Karim summons Chaos of Dragon and Seto declares the attack of all Ka together. However, Diabound is still shielded by the dead spirits. Bakura claims that no matter how much the priests attack, they can't penetrate the spirit shield. This place is the origin of the dead spirits and is where Bakura holds uppper hand. The dead spirits are like his and Diabound's friends. As a result, people are very worried and are much in trouble, having no ideas how to solve this problem.

[ The priest Seto ]	Pharaoh!
[ Pharaoh Yugi ]	Everybody!
[ The theif Bakura]	This is...this is... The priests have lined up.
[ Shimon ]	Are you okey, Pharaoh?
[ Pharaoh Yugi ]	Ah!
[ The priest Isis ]	Mahado!
[ Black Magician Mahado ]	Take this, Bakura! Marendan! (Evil Wave)
[ The priest Isis ]	You have finally resurrected.
[ Black Magician Mahado ]	Ah! My dead body becomes a spirit to protect Pharaoh forever.
[ Shimon ]	Such a great job, Mahado! You deserve the title of the strongest magic master in this country.
[ The priest Seto ]	Everybody should delight after defeating Bakura.
[ The theif Bakura]	Hi hi hi!
[ The priest Karim ]	Isis, Pharaoh's Ba remains very little.
[ The priest Isis ]	I see that. Holy Elf!
[ The theif Bakura]	Shi! Ka that has ability to retrieve Ba....
[ Pharaoh Yugi ]	Bakura!
[ Shimon ]	Pharaoh, you are going to push yourself too much if you will fight by that body. Let the priests handle this work.
[ The theif Bakura]	Hi hi hi! All of you have come here to give me the millennium items by your selves. From now on, I don't have to waste time.
[ The priest Seto ]	Bakura! We, the priests, will destroy your stupid desire!
[ The priest Karim ]	Come on! Chaos of Dragon!
[ The theif Bakura]	Come on! The priests! Diabound...Kill them!
[ The priest Seto ]	Together attack Diabound!

On the other side, the priest Akunadin is slowly walking along Kuruelna village while many dead spirits are floating around him. He is being haunted by them and by his terrible memory. Then some spirits appear to attack him. The priest Akunadin is very frightened, falling down with fear. Suddenly, Double Headed Jackal Warrior of Shada comes to save him in time. Shada is worried about how the priest Akunadin is, telling him that the others are fighting against Bakura now. So they should go to join them. Then, Shada feels some power from his millennium ankh shaking. The millennium ankh points Shada to a front house. Thus, Shada lets Akunadin wait for him here while he is going to check inside the house. Moving into the house, Shada sees a stair down to undergound. So, he decides to go along the way down, reaching a dark room. Then he is very shocked by a stone tablet with an image of Diabound surrounded by many images of skulls. The priest Akunadin following him says that it is Diabound's tablet. In other words, Ka of Diabound is summoned from this tablet. Akunadin explains that Diabound was, in fact, created by dead spirits in Kuruelna village. Shada gets an idea that if this tablet is broken, Diabound is disappeared. As a result, he plans to call his Ka, Double Headed Jackal Warrior, to destroy it. However, Shada is hit by the priest Akunadin, falling down with surprise. His millennium ankh is also dropped. After that, there are some spirits coming out from Diabound's stone tablet and draging Shada 's body into it. Shada is very confused by the priest Akunadin's act. Taking up the millennium ankh, Akunadin claims that he won't let Shada change future of him and his Seto.

[ The priest Akunadin ]	Ahhh! Haaaa! (It is returing...That disgusting memory!)
[ Akunadin reminds himself of his terrible memory ]
[ The priest Akunadin ]	(Anyway, here is the place where I and Seto are going to become kings) Ah!!! Don't come any closer, you...Kuruelna Spirits!
[ Shada comes in to save Akunadin ]
[ The priest Shada ]	Akunadin-Sama! Akunadin-Sama, are you okey?
[ The priest Akunadin ]	I am fine.
[ The priest Shada ]	Pharaoh and the others have already faced against Bakura. So, we should also...!
[ The millennium ankh is shaking ]
[ The priest Akunadin ]	What's wrong, Shada?
[ The priest Shada ]	What is this power? Akunadin-Sama! Please wait here!
[ The priest Akunadin ]	Shada!
[ The priest Shada ]	Previously, what did he say that there was something here?
[ Shada goes down and sees Diabound's stone tablet ]
[ The priest Shada ]	Millennium ankh!...That is!?
[ The priest Akunadin ]	This is Diabound's stone tablet.
[ The priest Shada ]	Akunadin-Sama!
[ The priest Akunadin ]	Diabound was created by dead spirits of this village. As long as grudge of people isn't eliminated, Diabound is immortal.
[ The priest Shada ]	So, if this tablet is broken, Diabound will be...Double Headed Jackal Warrior! Ahhh!
[ Shada is hit and dragged into Diabound's tablet ]
[ The priest Shada ]	Ah! Akunadin-Sama!
[ The priest Akunadin ]	I won't let you change future of me and Seto.

Back to the battle, Karim is worried about how to beat Diabound. The duel starts again by Bakura. Diabound attacks and destroys Holy by Serpant Fang (Dokugaren) so that people can no longer regain Ba. As a result, Isis gets such a strong hit. Then Bakura is thinking about the 8th key other than seven millenniums in this game. In order to search for it, Bakura previously implanted some part of his mind into Honda's body. In other words, Honda is now Bakura's honest servant. He hopes Honda will help him find the 8th key while he is with little Yugi.

On the other side, little Yugi and the others are having some rest beside the river. Bobasa feels hungry again, so Jyonouchi asks him whether Babasa can say only those words. People notice Bakura's followers moving around down to the river, seeing that they have already stopped attacking. Little Yugi wonders why they didn't continue to attack despite the fact that they have had many chances to do so since Yami Yugi left. So, Jyonouchi claims that they may be afraid of his strength. Then he notices that Honda looks different, asking him what is wrong. Honda seems to urge everybody to find something they can do to help Yami Yugi. Anzu agrees with Honda. If they don't find it, they may not be able to save Yami Yugi. Then Honda continues guiding people about their duty in this world. He means the duty to look for something. While Jyonouchi is confused by what Honda said, little Yugi is with Honda. Little Yugi understands that he should be aware of something that no one has known before very quickly. Hearing that, Anzu understands at once that little Yugi is talking about Yami Yugi's real name. Little Yugi tries to let everybody think about the reason why Yami Yugi's real name was deleted from cartouche on the stone tablet. Honda answers this question at once that it is probably necessary to be deleted. So, little Yugi goes on his explanation. He reminds his friends of what he had seen in Yami Yugi's maze mind before he came into this memory world. At that time, people saw Bakura's appearance that later tranformed into a monster. Then Shadi explained that it was the image of Pharaoh's real enemy or Zork. This game may be the battle of destiny between Pharaoh and Zork following what ever happenned 3,000 years ago. In conclusion, Yami Yugi's real name might be the key to beat Zork, so it had to be deleted from the stone tablet or even history. Anyway, people haven't had any idea where they can find the 8th key. Therefore, little Yugi suggests to go to Pharaoh's royal palace since he may find something there. Hearing that, Honda starts running off while the others are following him. Their target is at the royal palace.

Dios Dragon Ka - Monster

Back to the battle, Dios, Chaos of Dragon, Black Magician and Black Magician still can't beat tremendous power of Diabound. Then Karim comes up with an idea to activate ability his millennium scale to fuse Ka (Ka Yuukyoo - Ka Fusion). As a result, Dios and Chaos of Dragon are combined together and finally become Dios Dragon. Including power of Mahado, two Ka gain much stronger power. However, Bakura doesn't feel worried about the combination of many fishes at all. Seto first declares the attack of Dios Dragon, Dragon Flame. Meanwhile, Diaobund counterattacks by Spiral Wave (Rasenhado). Power of both sides is against each other in the middle. If the priests can combine Ka, Bakura thinks that he also can combine the attack. As a result, Bakura lets the bottom part of Diabound, in form of snake, launches Thunder Force, power of Osiris. So power of Diabound is doubled, pushing back Dragon Flame of Dios Dragon. Seto can feel such powerful strength that he hardly withstands. Therefore, he lets Dios rise up its aura sword to block the Diabound's attack. Bakura wonders for how long Seto can withstand. At the same time, Seto's hand starts burning following his Ka. Karim suddenly lets Dios Dragon relaunch Dragon Flame again. This time, Dragon Flame almost penetrates into the spirit shield, so Karim tells Seto to hold on blocking. It is very close to beat Diabound. At this point, Bakura shows up his Dia Diank (Duel Disk), claiming that he can summon another Ka. Then he summons the third Ka to attack Karim directly. When Karim falls down and drops his millennium scale, a dead spirit picks it up and gives it to Bakura. People are shocked by that Bakura has much power to summon the third Ka. Without millennium scale, Dios Dragon separates into Dios and Chaos of Dragon as usual. Suddenly, Diabound takes a strong hit, so everybody is blown away. Isis goes to see whoseems to get such a serious injury. Anyway, he is still more concerned about Pharaoh. While all people are falling down, Bakura uses power of the millennium scale combine his Ka together, so power of Diabound is very much increased.

Then Pharaoh Yugi gets up, calling for the dead spirits. He moves in the front line while the dead spirits combine together to become an image of a big skull. You can feel how much hatred these spirits have obtained. Bakura thinks that this should be the end of Yugi. Pharaoh has made a decision to handle entire hatred of the dead spirits. He understands their feeling very well. If his friends had been in the same situation, he would probably have obtained the same hatred. So, Pharaoh would like to take responsibility for the creation of the millennium items because this is the fate of the king. Hearing that, Bakura would like to response for what Pharaoh's expected. The dead spirits start penetrating into Pharaoh's body while Pharaoh screams and trembles with pain. They move closer into the center of Pharaoh's mind. There, young Pharaoh Yugi is holding his father, Pharaoh Akunumkanon, tightly with fear.  Also, Pharaoh Akunumkanon starts crying. Suddenly, there is aura coming out from Pharaoh Yugi's body and forming into an image of Pharaoh Akunumkanon. Instead, Pharaoh Akunumkanon receives entire hatred of the dead spirits. Without grudge power of them, Diabound's power is significantly decreased. Mahado says that Pharaoh Akunumkanon already leaded the dead spirits to the world of death. Turning back to see people and his son, Pharaoh Akunumkanon disappears. At this point, Pharaoh lets Mahado attack Diabound with less power. Mahado has waited for this time for a long time. He launches fully his power, Magic Wave (Madouha) into Diabound's body. Diabound is exploded while Bakura gets such a great damage and screams with pain. Pharaoh hopes this will be the end of Bakura who must sleep in darkness forever. On the other side, when the dead spirits was gone due to Pharaoh Akunumkanon, Shada is released from Diabound's stone tablet. He notices the tablet broken apart...

[ Pharaoh Yugi ]	Anger of the dead spirits..
[ Mana ]	Prince!
[ People ]	Pharaoh!
[ The theif Bakura]	Perhaps, this may be the conclusion..Yugi. You must be pierced by the dead spirits.
[ Pharaoh Yugi ]	I have already made a decision. The dead spirits!
[ Shimon ]	Pharaoh, what do you intend to do?
[ Pharaoh Yugi ]	Shimon! There is the fact that my father, Akunumkanon, didn't know. It is the fact that the millennium items were created by sacrification of people's lives.
[ The priest Seto ]	For the millennium items...?
[ Pharaoh Yugi ]	Similarly, if I had had seen my friends being killed, there would have had no difference that I would certainly obtain the same hatred. The cursed fate to receive this judgement belongs to the king.
[ The theif Bakura]	Hi ! As you wish! Eat Pharaoh's soul, the dead spirits!
[ Pharaoh Yugi ]	Ah!!!!!
[ People ]	Pharaoh! Prince!
[ The theif Bakura]	Die with pain, Yugi!
[ The dead spirits penetrate into Pharaoh's body ] [ Pharaoh Akunumkanon separates from Pharaoh's body ]
[ The theif Bakura]	What?
[ Shimon ]	Akunumkanon..?
[ The theif Bakura]	Akunumkanon, Dam! What is happenning? Diabound!?
[ Pharaoh Yugi ]	Father?
[ Black Magician Mahado ]	The soul of the king, Akunumkanon, leads the dead spirits to the world of death.
[ Pharaoh Yugi ]	Father's sigh and sorrow....the last rescue...!?
[ The theif Bakura]	All of you! Have you forgotton grudge to that guy? Don't you think to tear his body?
[ Pharaoh Yugi ]	Father! Mahado! This time, Diabound's power has already decreased.
[ Black Magician Mahado ]	Yach!!
[ The theif Bakura]	Ah! You..
[ Black Magician Mahado ]	I have waited for this day, Bakura! Madouha (Magic Wave)!
[ The theif Bakura]	Ah!
[ Pharaoh Yugi ]	Sleep in darkness for thousand years, Bakura!
