Introduction

Twenty years ago, the reign of the Supreme King Dragon Zarc finally came to an end; as his spirit and Ray Akaba's could finally rest in peace. The nightmare was finally over for their reincarnations; no longer would they have to be in fear of being separated from each other, or be afraid of another crisis falling upon the four dimensions. In the aftermath of ARC-V splitting back into the four dimensions, each pair of counterparts returned to their respective homes in high hopes that a bright future was ahead. That future involved the Four dimensions declaring peace and opening up travel between each other, each of them hoping to avoid another conflict as horrific as the last one as a result. The XYZ dimensions was sent as much relief as needed to restore Heartland City to its original state. In Synchro, the social classes that had kept New Domino city divided were finally abolished and the citizens couldn't be happier with the Friendship Cup finally embodying its name as the to sections of the city were finally united. Fusion went under drastic changes as Duel Academia came under the ownership of Reiji Akaba and the Leo Corporation; he wanted to right the wrongs his father had caused, and turned Academia into a true institute for educating duelist and not a military academy. The Standard Dimension, or Pendulum as it goes by now, now finds itself as the main force in keeping the peace and prosperity between the dimensions alive.

The counterparts of Zarc and Ray now entered a new stage in life as well. Yuya Sakaki now owns and teaches at his father's You Show Duel School with his wife, Yuzu, and father-in-law, Shuzo Hiiragi, in Maiami City in the Pendulum Dimension; the goal of spreading smiles and happiness through Dueling being their purpose for teaching. In XYZ, Yuto finally married Ruri Kurosaki, after several attempts at getting her older brother's blessing, and the two live a happy life in Neo Heartland as professional duelists. Ruri still strives to achieve the dream of spreading smiles through dueling and has ended up on the same stage as her and her husbands standard counterparts as a leader in entertainment dueling. In Synchro, Yugo and Rin rebuilt their D-Wheel and now live a somewhat quiet life as professional turbo duelists in New Domino City; the two of them now trade the title of Duel King and Queen each year at the Friendship Cup along with Jack Atlas. In the Fusion Dimension, after five long years of psychiatric therapy, Yuri was allowed to be apart of the general populace and eventually married Serena, with the latter claiming it as a means to rekindle a broken bond between the two. The husband and wife duo now teach at the infamous Duel Academy, both in charge of the Honors student classes, and you never see one without the other; Serena refuses to leave Yuri's side in fear of him reverting back to his sadistic behavior.

With the world now at peace, dueling has been able to evolve into a new form known as Duel Raiding. Two duelist enter a specifically designed action field and traverse it through the use of motorized aggressive inline skates. These are called Duel Raiders, and are built by the duelists themselves. When the two duelists enter the action field, they are capable of reaching speeds of at 45mph (72 km/h), and use the obstacles to preform daring acrobatic feats as means of evasion and navigation. Action Cards are more difficult to obtain in a Duel Raid than an Action Duel, so the use of Duel Raiders is required for obtaining them. This is where the story of a sixteen year old duelist from Maiami City begins as he takes to the Action Field with the dream of winning it all with his friends clear in his mind. His journey will take him across each of the four dimensions as he meets new people and discovers just how important he is to the future of the four dimensions.

This is, Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Raiders.
