Chapter 36 The Memories of the Beast
In the Duel Palace, the Tops cheer Yuya's name, while the Commons cheer for Risu. Outside in the streets of New Domino City, Sora notices Yuni and the others as he goes to them.
"Everyone." Sora yells as they notice them.
"Sora." Yuni greets him. "There you are."
"What happened? Why it is getting dark?" Sora asks.
"We don't know." Reisho says. "I think something bad is going to happen..."
Sora nods and says, "Yuni, can I talk to my sister?"
"Sorry, we defused so that she can go save Serena from the Security." Yuni says. "She told me that they just saved her and that she is going to hide her."
"I see." Sora says. Before he can ask for more, they hear Melissa's announcement.
"The third match of the third round is Yuya versus Risu!" Melissa says.
The group is shocked as Katrina says, "They are going to continue the match?"
"Something is fishy about it." Kazama says.
Sora says, "I'll go check it out." He then leaves as the others decide to go find Serena and the others.
In the Security Headquarters, Jean-Michel Roget places a white knight down and admits, "Usually, I would have preferred having Yuya Sakaki undertake the mind-altering surgery but… Thanks to Akaba Reiji, Akaba Reisho, and Sakaki Yuni's interference, my plans were slightly disrupted."
Roget turns into a wicked smile and says, "But I must have Yuya win this Duel and with great flash and splendor. I'll need him to defeat that Yuni and Sona look-alike with such an awe-inspiring performance that all of New Domino City won't be able to take their eyes off him. While that goes on, I'll finish off Reiji Akaba and the council with Sergey."
He looks at Sergey in the van and says, "To accomplish this, what I prepared is..."
Yuya picks the helmet up, unaware that Roget placed the Control Device inside it, and he thinks, "Roget has restrained the Council and Reiji so he can take control of this world. However, Reiji managed to save them, who knows when they'll be back. And Roget is after Serena and Yuzu as well...We're the only ones who can do something right now!"
"Good, now all of the pieces are in place." Roget thinks to himself, and he moves a white knight, telling Yuya, "Now then, make it flashy for me, enough that it is fitting to celebrate my success in gaining rule over this dimension!"
Fireworks explode in the night sky as Melissa states, "Now then it's time for the entrance of both players, Sakaki Yuya and Risu."
Yuya waits at the starting line on his D-Wheel as the crowd continues to cheer his and Risu's names. Risu stops beside Yuya and retracts her visor, she says, "Yuya. I'm sorry."
"Huh?" Yuya is surprised at the sudden apology.
"About Shinji. He always gets too rash on the decision of Commons and Tops. If you're fighting such a huge enemy just like we are, there's no way you'd be working for the Tops!" Risu says with a frown.
"Risu..." Yuya smiles, knowing that Risu's mind is clear.
"I've decided I'm going to win for the kids as well. No, not just for them. For the future of this city! That's why I can't lose this Duel!" Risu says in determination.
"It's the same for me. I've made up my mind to win this Tournament to bring smiles to everyone's faces. I'll win this and defeat Jack, so I can tell people just what makes Dueling so wonderful!" Yuya says, but he tightens his hand on his accelerator and laments, "But now I can't do that..."
"You can't? Why?" Risu asks.
"Roget is trying to take over this city!" Yuya says.
"If Security becomes the top power running this city then... Then we Commons will be even more...! The future that Yugo, Rin, and I wanted will..." Risu says with anger.
"That's why we need to stop Roget's plan! So I have a request for you, Risu." Yuya says.
"I don't know what your plan is, but leave it to me!" Risu says with a smile.
Meanwhile, Yugo speeds down the streets and he screeches to a halt at a dead end.
"Damn, I can't find Rin anywhere. Seriously, where did she go!" Yugo laments.
In another street, Tsukikage carries Serena on his back while Sona and Reira walk beside them, while in the Capital Building, Reiji watches the beginning of Yuya and Risu's Duel.
"Now it's almost time for our Duel!" Melissa declares as she stands in her helicopter. "Even though it shouldn't be this dark, the night stage for this match looks like jewels and gems scattered from an overturned treasure box! Just what kind of battle will take place here!?" She says as the helicopter hovers above the arena.
Below her, Sora rushes up the stairs and muses to himself, "Something has to have happened! Otherwise, there's no way the sky should become this dark!"
He sees Melissa's helicopter alighting above him, and runs towards it, vowing, "No matter what the situation may be, I will save Yuya!" With that Sora leaps into the air and snags onto the helicopter's wheel as it lifts off.
Melissa declares, "Action Field on! Field Magic: Crossover Accel!" And the purple light suffuses the city.
Risu and Yuya's D-Wheel declare, "Duel Mode on, autopilot standby." And the holographic counter appears.
As Jack watches the countdown, Melissa declares "Riding Duel…Acceleration!"
"Duel!" (Yuya:4000)(Risu:4000)
Both duelists ride off, as Melissa says, "Both D-Wheels started at almost the same time. So who will be the first to make it out of the gate and take the first turn?! Risu? Or Yuya?!"
Just then, Risu emerges first as Melissa says, "First is...Risu!"
Risu says, "All right, here we go! I summon Aqua Mermaid: The Starfish!" (ATK:1700/DEF:1200 LV:3)
This time a yellow-fin mermaid with a star on its crest appears, she says, "Then I set a card and end my turn." Risu says.
"Roget is trying to rule the City?! Then this duel must be a setup just like Yugo and Serena...then I've got no reason to go along with it!" Risu muses.
"Roget is originally from Academia, I can't imagine a city being controlled by someone who rules a class-driven society with brute force, to become a peaceful society." Yuya thinks.
As Risu and Yuya move along a corner, Risu thinks, "The future isn't something given to you. It's something we have to grasp with our own hands! That's why I've decided, Yuya! I'll help you out!"
She turns to him, "Let's have a real match after we get control of the future we want!"
"Yeah, it's a promise!" Yuya says.
"All right, go for it, Yuya! Go on and make it flashy!" Risu says.
Yuya moves his D-Wheel forwards and he cheers, "LADIES AND GENTLEMEN! In this night sky of the city overflowing with light. Feast your eyes on a beautiful flower of entertainment that will bloom right before you! My turn!"
He declares his turn and draws, he says, "First enjoy this beautiful and energetic dance. I activate from my hand the Quick-Play Magic: Hippo Carni-"
But then, he says, "Oh, excuse me! Let's top that with Super Hippo Carnival! I activate this and Special Summon Entermate Discover Hippo!" (ATK:800/DEF:800 LV:3)
After the hippo appears, he says, "When this card is Summoned, the remainder of my Field is filled with Hippo Tokens! Now then, come forth, hippos! And now dance, Hippo Dancers!"
Five hippos appear on the field as they start to dance above him. "What did you think? That was the Hippo Dancers of Super Hippo Carnival! Please enjoy the entrancing dance of these five hippos to their hearts' content!"
The crowd cheers and Melissa praises, "This is an amazing leading punch by Yuya! He's grabbing a hold of the audience's hearts with his monsters' dance!"
Risu says, "I won't let Yuya hog the spotlight! Starfish's effect activates! When my opponent summons a monster, I can also special summon up two Starfish Tokens!"
The two starfishes appear as Risu says, "Now you guys, dance with them!"
As they dance, Melissa is surprised as she irritably asks, "Hey, hold on now! You're having your starfishes dance with the hippos?! Are you two just messing around?! This is an official Friendship Cup semi-final match you know! All of the City is watching you so take this seriously!"
Risu replies, "I'm not messing around! We're completely serious! It's about time to do it, Yuya!"
Yuya says, "Thanks, Risu! I'm in your debt."
They come within view of the Capitol Building and Yuya accelerates, and Risu muses, "That's right, the Capital Building is right there! You can't stop a D-Wheel that's on auto-pilot during a Duel, but...You can jump off of it! Jump! Go for it, Yuya! Go to your friends! To our future!"
Roget states, "I won't let you go anywhere. Because you're going to work as my pawn."
He touches a control on his screen and the device in Yuya's helmet shocks him, causing Yuya to scream in pain. Yuya clutches his head and says, "What was that just now...?"
Watching the Duel, Roget muses, "The helmet you're wearing has a device that sends electric shocks to your brain. After plenty of experiments, I've discovered stimulating a certain part of the brain increases the subject's aggressiveness. We didn't have time to undergo proper brain surgery but...This will be plenty to make this Duel more exciting."
Roget increases the power of the device and says, "Now then, with more flash and vigor! Show me a Duel that will make it impossible for the entire City to keep their eyes off you!"
The device activates again and Yuya screams, clutching his head in his hands. Risu says, "Go! Yuya! Right now! Jump off!"
But Yuya is in too much pain to move, and the D-Wheel pass the Capital Building – missing their chance. "Why won't you go?! Your friends are captured, right?! Did you get cold feet, Yuya?!"
Yuya just grits his teeth and groans in pain. Roget states, "No matter what kind of person you may be, you always have your primal instincts. Now, call forth to it! Bring it to the surface!"
He rises from his chair and says, "Awaken! Ferocious power that lies dormant in Sakaki Yuya! Release that power and rampage freely!"
Roget increases the device to maximum output, and Yuya howls in agony and glowing red eyes open within his own as he sees a vision of a city being destroyed. And Yugo also feels the sensation as he stops his D-Wheel, "What the...?" Yugo then sees his Clear Wing glowing.
In his mindscape, Zarc, Yubel, Yuto and Yuri are chatting until a force pulls Yuya into them.
"Yuya?" Zarc asks in surprise at his appearance.
"What is going on? Are you okay?" Yuto says as he tries to hold him up.
"Huh...what just happen? Why am I back here?" Yuya says as then they are surrounded by dark mists.
"What is this?" Yubel says in surprise. Then they hear a voice. "Hahaha! I am free at last!"
Zarc says, "No! It can't be!" Then they see a figure in front of them.
"The Supreme King..." Zarc says in horror.
"What? So he is the one that controls you to destroy the world?" Yuri says in surprise.
"I have failed thanks to that device, but thanks to that device, I am free again." He says maliciously.
"Device?" Yuya gasps, "Roget must have placed it in my helmet!"
Yuto asks, "What should we do?"
Zarc says, "We should defeat them." He then takes out his duel disk.
"Do you seriously think you can defeat me?" The king says as he then calls out his monster army, which consists of Supreme King Odd-Eyes, Supreme King Dark Rebellion, and Supreme King Starve Venom.
"He has our dragons?" Yuya says in surprise.
"Yes, he did. Since he was the one who summoned Zarc to devour Mark..." Zarc says. "We just have to fight back, but not in duel style."
Supreme king says, "I'll see you try to entertain me."
Back in the real world, Serena's Lunar Eclipse and Sona's Full Clear are starting to glow.
"What is this?" Tsukikage asks.
At the same time in the underground, Yuzu's Blooming Melody, Assemble Wings, and Arctic Blizzard is also glowing like crazy.
Frank says, "Tsukikage said to hide for the time being, but...how long are we going to have to keep doing this?"
"Don't complain!" Tanner says. "Crow and Kiryu are here too! It's a given that we're going to all break out together eventually."
"Yuya and the others also promise to bring us out as well. So that's gotta be the signal, right Yuzu?" Amanda turns around, only to see that Ryu, Ron, and Gongenzaka are surrounding Yuzu.
"Yuzu, your dragons..." Gongenzaka says.
"Why are they blinking?" Ron asks.
"I don't know..." Yuzu says.
Ray says, "If they're blinking, that means only one thing...the Supreme King is back..."
"What?" Ruri says. "Then what will happen?"
Vivian says, "Yuzu, what's going on?"
"It can't be...something is happening to Yuya..." Yuzu says.
At the same time, Yuni's two dragons also start to glow, Reisho says, "Why is it glowing?"
"The Supreme King inside him is awake..." Yuni trembles.
"What? Does that mean he is going to?" Katrina says in surprise.
"Damn it, we can't interfere with the duel right now..." Yuni says, "I just hope that Sora and Risu can save him before bad things happen."
And at the same time, Yugo also clenches his head in pain as his eyes start to glow green. And for some reason, Yuni and Yuzu feel sharp pain inside them as they kneel.
"Yuzu! Are you okay?" Ryu asks.
"What...what is this pain..." Yuzu mutters.
Yuni says, "This pain...it is not normal...why..."
Yuya lets his head fall forwards with his irises glowing red, Risu sees her Rainbow Wing shining as well. She says, "Rainbow Wing, are you telling me something's wrong with Yuya?"
Yuya says, "I activate the Magic Card: Catastrophe Draw. I destroy five monsters I control and draw two cards from my deck!"
The hippos are scared as they disappear, then darkness flows freely from Yuya as Yugo mirror his actions, drawing random cards of their own.
"With the Scale 3 Antithesis Magician and the Scale 8 Synthesis Magician, I set the Pendulum scale! With this, I can now simultaneously Summon monsters from Levels 4 to 7. Swing, pendulum of the soul!" and Yugo chants, "Draw an arc of light across the aether!" All of them declare, "Pendulum Summon!" and Yuya chants "Come forth! My monster servant! With your heroic and dichromatic eyes…" and Yugo finishes "Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon!" (ATK:2500/DEF:2000 LV:7 PS:4)
"Now I activate Synthesis Magician's Pendulum Effect! Once per turn, I can target a monster to make it the same level as another monster! I make the Level of your Starfish the same as Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon's 7!" Then the Starfish is now Level 7.
"W-What are you!?" Risu says in shock.
"Battle! Go! Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon!" Yugo orders, "Attack Aqua Mermaid: The Starfish!"
Risu says, "Attack!? This is different from what we planned! I use its effect, if I have tokens on the field, this monster won't be destroyed!"
Yuya chants, "Odd-Eyes! With your dichromatic eyes, lay waste to all you see before you! Spiral Flame Strike!"
Odd-Eyes blasts a plume of crimson flames at Starfish, enveloping the mermaid. "I Activate Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon's effect... When it battles a Level 5 or higher monster, the battle damage is doubled! Reaction Force!"
The orange fire is added to the crimson and it hurts Risu. (Risu:4000-2400)
"1600 damage in an instant!" Melissa cheers. "I see, that's why Yuya raised Crow's monster's Level to 7 from 3! And that switch from a carefree atmosphere to such a hard battle style! These two sides of a coin are all a part of Yuya's entertainment, right? Sorry I got mad without taking the time to read ahead!"
Yuya says, "I end my turn here."
Roget laughs and says, "Wonderful! You showed me a reaction far greater than what I expected! Just like that, make these Duels even more exciting!"
Risu says, "Why is he doing this...it seems like he is a different person..." Just then, she remembers that Yuni says that she finds a Control Chip inside Officer Ushio's helmet, and then she gasps, "Could it be...Roget controls him just like he did to the Security? But when? It doesn't matter. I'll save you for Yuni and Yuzu's sake. My turn!"
After drawing a card, she says, "I normal Summon Aqua Mermaid: The Shark!" (ATK:1500/DEF:300 LV:1)
A mermaid with blue hair and a fin that is grey like a shark appears on the field. She says, "When there is a Water Attribute Monster on the field, I can summon Aqua Mermaid, the Octopus on the field." (ATK:1200/DEF:200 LV:1)
Then a Yellow-haired female with legs that looks like a red octopus appears on the field, she says, "I tune Level 1 the Shark with my Level 1 Octopus!"
As the Octopus becomes a ring that goes through the Shark, she says, "The beast lives underwater, float up and shoot like a geyser! Synchro Summon! Come forth! Aqua Mermaid, the Whale!" (ATK:2000/DEF:1000 LV:2)
After the first monster appears, she says, "Then I tune both Level 1 Starfish Tokens with Level 3 Starfish! Live in the underwater, it is time to show the coldness from the depths! Synchro Summon! Come forth! Level 5! Aqua Mermaid The Queen!" (ATK:2000/DEF:1500 LV:5)
Risu closes her eyes and says, "Water is pure and clean, just like minds can be clear. This is my Clear Mind! I tune the Queen with the Whale!"
Risu suddenly disappears as she also appears again, she chants, "Spread those wondrous and colorful wings, and strike down your enemies with the powers of Waters! Accel Synchro Summon! Appear now! Level 7! Rainbow Wing Synchro Dragon!" (ATK:2500/DEF:2000 LV:7)
Once the dragon appears, she says, "I use Rainbow Wing's effect! I can attack you directly by changing Rainbow Wing's ATK to 300 multiplied by the level of the highest level of the monster on the field! That means the Level 7 Odd-Eyes! It is now 2100 ATK! (ATK:2500–2100) I attack you directly! Hydro Shoot of Rainbows!"
Yuya gets hot by the beam of water as he growls in pain. (Yuya:4000-1900)
"Risu strikes back! Yuya takes a huge hit of 2100 damage!" Melissa says.
"I set one card and end my turn." Risu says.
Yuya growls in rage; the darkness he is exuding now covers his D-Wheel as well.
At the same time, Yuya has Enlightenment Paladin, Yuto has Break Sword and Yuri uses Chimeraffesia to attack the three dragons, they are struggling as Yuto curses. "If only we have our dragons..."
"I am sorry, this is all my fault...if I was careful enough..." Yuya says.
"Don't mention it." Yuri says. "You don't know how sneaky that guy is."
Zarc says, "Let's hope that Risu can save us from the outside."
"My…" Yuya and Yugo say, "Turn!" They draw and Sora, who is now in the helicopter, gasps as he remembers his duel with Yuto. "Just for an instant, Yuya's face looked like Yuto's...!" Sora asks. "Is he now in control?"
"With the set scale, I Pendulum Summon, appear from my field! Phantom Knights Cracked Helm (ATK:1500/DEF:1500 LV:4), and Predator Plants Spino Dionaea!"(ATK:1800/DEF:0 LV:4)
As the two monsters appear, he says, "And now I use Summon Carnival! I can perform a Fusion, Synchro, and Xyz summon using the two monsters I control on the field as materials!"
"Fusion, Synchro, and Xyz at the same time?" Risu gasps.
"Knight from the dark depths, become one with the plant that bites everything in the way! Fusion Summon! Appear Level 8! Starve Venom Fusion Dragon!"(ATK:2800/DEF:2000 LV:8)
The dragon roars as it gives tremendous power, then he says, "Next, I overlay my two monsters! Fangs formed from pitch-black darkness! Rise against the foolish oppression! Descend now! Xyz Summon! Appear now! Rank 4! Dark Rebellion Xyz Dragon!" (ATK:2500/DEF:2000 RNK:4 OVU:2)
"Three Dragons?" Risu says in shock. "Even Yuri's dragon too! Is that really Yuya Dueling right now…?" Sora wonders.
Darkness continues to pour from Yuya and the implant in his helmet continues to send out electric shocks. Yuya says, "I use Starve Venom's effect, It gains all ATK of the monsters on the field." (ATK:2800-10300)
"10300 ATK?" Melissa exclaims. "Thar is a high ATK!"
"Then I activate the effect of Dark Rebellion Xyz Dragon! By detaching an Overlay Unit, until the turn ends it can halve the ATK of a Level 5 or higher monster my opponent controls and increase its own by the same amount!"
Dark Rebellion unfolds its wings and they begin crackling with electricity. "Treason Discharge!" Yuya declares. (ATK:2500-1250)(ATK:2500-3750)
"Now Yuya has two monsters with high ATK! Risu has only 2400 LP! Either one of the monster battles, will be Yuya's Victory!"
"A truly unexpected display of strength!" a Tops man praises.
"You never would think he was the same person who was having those hippos dance earlier!" a Tops Women comments.
"So another guy with the Tops backing him is going to win then!?" A Commons man yells.
"Us Common's future is pitch-black now!" Another commons man complains while Jack watches impassively.
"I don't think so! Trap Card: Back to Prehistoric State! I can negate all the monsters' effect that is activating. So Starve Venom and Dark Rebellion's ATK returns to normal!" (ATK:3750-2500)(ATK:10300-2800)
Then both Starve Venom and Dark Rebellion are back to normal. "Such pointless struggling." Roget says, "Looks like I'll need to help out a little here."
"And what about Action Cards?" Roger asked his staff. "Course point TD-6 has an Action Card." One of the staff states. "Let Yuya take that one." Roget says.
Meanwhile, Sora hangs from the wheel of Melissa's helicopter, gasping, "Something definitely is wrong! What's gotten into Yuya?!"
"Antithesis Magician's Pendulum Effect!" The Magician collects energy on the points of the design on its shield. "Once per turn, I can target one Xyz monster to have it gain a Level equal to its Rank! I grant the Rank 4 Dark Rebellion Xyz Dragon a Level of 4!"
The energy becomes a star in a circle, which unleashes three pulses of light that combine and infuse Dark Rebellion Xyz Dragon with a Level of 4.
"What is he doing now?!" Risu says in shock.
Next, Yuya chants, "Synthesis Magician's Pendulum effect! Once per turn, I can target a monster to make it the same level as another monster! I make Dark Rebellion Xyz Dragon's level the same as Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon's:7!"
Synthesis Magician fires an arrow at the space between Odd-Eyes and Dark Rebellion, covering them in red and purple energy respectively, and making Dark Rebellion Level 7.
Risu says, "Two Level 7 monsters, so that means Xyz?!"
Roget places a white pawn down, and he orders, "Disconnect LK-3 and connect to TD-6."
The road plates rise and begin to rotate on their pillars, and Roget says, "Here, a present from me. Take it...Sakaki Yuya."
"I overlay my Level 7 Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon and Dark Rebellion Xyz Dragon! Dragon of dual-colored eyes, eradicate all enemies who oppose you with your scale of wrath! Xyz Summon! Come forth! Rank 7! Dragon with eyes of rage! Odd-Eyes Rebellion Dragon!" (ATK:3000/DEF:2500 RNK:7 OVU:3 PS:1) "
Out of control, Odd-Eyes Rebellion Dragon unleashes lightning blasts and powerful shockwaves that rock Risu and Sora, and are so intense that they cause the ARC System barriers on the roads to deactivate and cut the main power in New Domino City. The closing roads stop as well, leaving a large gap between them.
"Why did it stop?!" Furious at the development, Roget slams his fist down.
One of his staff explains, "An external shock wave has destroyed the course changer's circuits."
"The backup circuits have been destroyed as well! We won't be able to bring them online right now!" Another staff says. Roget clenches his teeth furiously.
"When Odd-Eyes Rebellion Dragon is summoned using Dark Rebellion Xyz Dragon as Xyz Material. It destroys all Level 7 or lower monsters my opponent controls and deals damage equal to their ATK!" He declares. "Overlord Howling!"
Odd-Eyes Rebellion Dragon roars, sending out radial shockwaves. Risu says, "I banish the trap card: Back to Prehistoric State from my graveyard to negate that effect!"
"Risu with the desperate defense! She's held off Yuya's ongoing onslaught! Where will this match go from here...!" Melissa says.
But then she looks down and screams, "Th-There's nowhere to go! Both of them are going to fall off at this rate!"
Risu says, "Rainbow Wing!" She yells as the dragon creates a Water Stream as Risu's D-Wheel turns into boat mode and flies through it.
"But Yuya!" Sora gasps.
Yuya's D-Wheel soars over the gap, but it begins to fall. Yuya says, "I activate the Equip Magic: Supreme Wing from my hand!" Yuya takes out the last card in his hand. "I equip it to Odd-Eyes Rebellion Dragon!"
Giant triangular wings of purple light appear along with Odd-Eyes Rebellion Dragon's own wings, and it flies forwards to grab Yuya's D-Wheel in its hands.
"Yuya flew as well! Amazing! Now, this is entertainment!" Melissa calls it.
"Nice one, Yuya!" A Commons cheers.
"Risu is putting on quite a show as well…" A Tops praised Risu.
"Why did the course change stop partway? Is Roget trying to do the same to Yuya... The lightning from that dragon stops the course changing..."
In the Underground Labor Facility, trash pours from the pipes and is fed to the sorting line where the Lancers are sorting it. Yuzu is painfully leaning at the wall as she mutters, "Yuya..."
Serena and Sona's dragons continue to glow as well, while Serena herself remains weak from the nerve gas.
"Damn it...at this rate...Security will eventually catch us." She turns to others, "Enough already, leave me behind."
Sona says, "What are you saying? We will save you!"
Reira says, "Yeah, you are our comrade and we won't abandon you."
A scientist contacts Roget, desperately explaining, "Director! That shock wave just now has caused the device in Yuya's helmet to malfunction!"
Roget is surprised, asking, "What?! So it won't emit any more electric shocks, then?"
The scientist explains, "No! It's the opposite! We're unable to stop it from emitting the maximum charge! If this continues, his psyche, and even his memory may be affected! In the worst case, his life could be at risk!"
On the highway, Risu drops back beside Yuya in concern. "Yuya! Please wake up! Where did the sincere boy who was talking to me at the start go?"
Yuya turns his head and Risu sees Yuya's glowing eyes and recoils in horror.
"Battle! I attack your monster with Starve Venom! Toxic Hunger Bite!" Yuya yells as Risu gets damaged as well as Rainbow Wing being destroyed. (Risu:2400-2100)
"Risu somehow held on, but Yuya has a monster left; can she hold on?"
The scientist explains to Roget, " It is still emitting its maximum voltage! If this continues, Sakaki Yuya will...!"
"If he breaks, then that's fine." Roget says, spooking the scientist. "It would be a shame to lose him as my pawn in the future, but he is fully answering to my expectations right now. Look! Everyone in the Duel Palace is entranced by his Duel!"
Back on the ground, Yuni is also in pain as Katrina says, "This is not good...Sister is still in pain."
"Damn it..." Reisho mutters in anger.
Sora thinks, "Yuya! What's happened to you?! This kind of Dueling isn't like you at all!"
"Now it is time." He calls the Security units outside of the Capital Building. "Attention all Security units on standby outside of the Capital Building. Immediately storm the Capital Building and suppress Akaba Reiji as well as the City Council. After you have apprehended them, move to capture Hiiragi Yuzu and Serena!"
Sergey listens to the orders from inside his van and looks up with his left eye glowing red. Inside the Capitol Building, the High Council monitors Sector Security, and Gael muses, "It looks like they're going to make their move."
Gray states, "Even if that Security squad makes their way in here..."
Azul finishes, "I assume you will protect us again, correct?"
Bordeaux states, "We are counting on you, correct, Chairman?"
White Taki agrees and states, "Yes. We're relieved to have such a skilled Duelist as yourself watching over us."
Reiji doesn't reply; instead, he adjusts his glasses and looks at the screen depicting Yuya's Riding Duel.
Hanging from the helicopter, Sora thinks, "Right now, Yuya can't hear anyone... I might be able to do something if I join this Duel..."
Yuya yells, "This is the end! Odd-Eyes Rebellion Dragon! Sweeping Static Strike."
Odd-Eyes Rebellion Dragon tears up the road again. Risu says, "When I am about to get a direct attack, I activate Trap Card: Mermaid Fishing! I negate the battle and summon a monster from my graveyard! Rise! Rainbow Wing!"
Once the dragon reappears, Melissa says, "So that's what she could do! Tough as expected! The calling card of the Commons who have been trampled on but still stand up!"
"I end my turn." Yuya angrily says as Odd-Eyes Rebellion Dragon alights over his D-Wheel.
Yuni says, "Brother...please wake up..."
Ushio says, "This is bad, I guess."
"Yeah..." Ruka says as she looks up, she then says, "Hey, what are those?"
The others did the same as they see several shapes silhouetted against the moon. Reisho says, "Oh, no! That's Obelisk Force, they are from Academia!"
"What? Now?" Katrina says in surprise.
The appearance of the Obelisk Force sets off alarms at the Sector Security Headquarters as well, and one of Roget's staff states, "Numerous Unknown Flying Objects detected in the City's airspace!"
"10… 15… no, 20 have been confirmed! We have visual!"
Roget rises from his chair in shock. "The Obelisk Force! At a time like this, Academia…!" Roger exclaims. "This is bad… Their objective is definitely capturing Serena and Hiiragi Yuzu."
"Halt the operation! The Security unit outside the Capital Building will hold their position and not let a single person leave!" Roget orders. "Sergey, you are to intercept the invading Academia force!" Roget orders and Sergey looks up with a smile as his left eye glows red.
Melissa states, "Both of them refuse to give way to their opponent's relentless attacks! Who will be the victor of this Duel?"
Then she finally notices Sora hanging from the wheels, and she asks, "Hey! What are you doing!? Even if you want to see the Duel up close..."
But Sora ignores her, musing, "Obelisk Force is a special unit directly under the Professor's command... They're definitely after Yuzu and Serena...! Tsukikage has taken Yuzu underground, but Serena...! There's no guarantee she was sent underground after losing her Duel!"
He begins swinging from the wheel. "Calm down, Melissa…you can do this…!" Melissa begins to work up the courage. Sora jumps off the wheel. "No! He jumped off!" Melissa screams.
Risu feels a shock on her D-Wheel and turns to see Sora. "Who the heck are you?!"
"I am Shiunin Sora, your Fusion Counterpart's brother as well as Yuya's friend! Yuya isn't himself right now..."
"I know. I have been trying to bring him back to his senses." Risu says.
"I would've liked to do something about it myself, but I need to protect Serena from them...!" He points at the Obelisk Force. Risu gasps and says, "Woah! What is that?!"
But Sora is already gone, Risu says, "No, we can worry about that later. Yuya is first. Since I am Yuya's friend as well!"
Risu says, "My turn!" As she draws the card, she says, "I better prepare myself for the worst! I use Surface! With this, I summon a Water Monster from my graveyard in DEF position! Come! Octopus!"
Once the Octopus is back, she says, "I now tune the Level 7 Rainbow Wing Synchro Dragon with Level 1 Aqua Mermaid Octopus! Dragon with Colorful wings, use your dazzling glow to the show! Synchro Summon! Come forth! Level 8! Colorful Wing Synchro Dragon!" (ATK:3000/DEF:2500 LV:8)
The Rainbow colored Dragon becomes more brightly as it roars, in Yuya's mindscape, Supreme King laughs as Yuya and the others' monsters are being injured by the dragons.
"Hahaha...is this your strength? You won't be able to beat me with this..." Suddenly, Colorful Wings' glow starts to get inside the mind. "What is this? Where did the light come from?"
He as well as the dragons scream in pain as Zarc says, "Everyone, now it is our chance."
Yuya says, "Enlightenment Paladin!" He nods and slashes through Odd-Eyes.
"Break Sword! Go!" Yuto yells as the knight destroys Dark Rebellion.
"You, too." Yuri commands Chimeraffesia to destroy Starve Venom.
Risu says, "Now Colorful Wing! Attack Starve Venom Fusion Dragon! Color Clash of Scenery!"
The dragon roars as it destroys Starve Venom with the rainbow-colored light. Yuya yells, (Yuya:1900-1700) "When Starve Venom is destroyed, I can destroy all monsters on the field and give you damage equal to the total ATK!"
Risu says, "I use Colorful Wing Synchro Dragon's effect! I can negate an effect once per turn!"
Then it forms a rainbow ball as it explodes in front of the vines. Risu says, "And after the battle, I have itself that is Level 8! So I can destroy all monsters that are lower than 3200 ATK! Color Bomb!"
All 7 colors of the bomb appear on Yuya's field as it explodes, inside the mind of Yuya, Supreme King is injured as he says, "Damn it...I will return and you can't stop me!" Then he disappears.
Zarc says, "Yuya, now quickly control yourself."
"Right." Yuya says as he rushes away.
Back outside, Yuya yells, "At this moment, Supreme Wings' effect activates! The monster who destroyed the equipped monster in battle is destroyed! And you get damage equal to its original ATK!"
"What?" Risu gasps as the spark explodes with tremendous force, destroying Colorful Wing. (Risu:2100-0)
Risu's D-Wheel starts to smoke as Risu falls onto her D-Wheel, and at the same time, Yuya, who gets back in control, faints as both his eyes and Yugo's return back to normal.
"The…The winner is…The winner is Yuya! The winner of this round is Sakaki Yuya!" Melissa says.
Tsukikage carries Serena on his back as he, Sona, and Reira walk into an underground canal.
"Huh, it stops glowing." Serena says in surprise after both dragons are not glowing.
Yuzu's three bracelets also stop glowing as she also feels better, she says, "Did they do it?"
"What an ending! Just when Risu's comeback seemed certain, Yuya let forth a burning counter!" Melissa states. "He might be able to give an even match to Jack now!" Melissa suggests.
But Jack is furious, he rises from his throne. "What a boring Duel." Jack dismisses. He turns on his heel and leaves.
Yuni arrives when the two D-Wheels finally going to stop. Seeing Risu isn't awaking, she says, "I am sorry, Risu." She takes out the Dragon and absorbs Risu inside her. Then she quickly uses Full Clear's ability to be invisible.
The guards come, but they are shocked to see the field empty.
"Brother!" Yuni and the others carry him to the city, Yuya slowly awakes and says, "Huh...I am back..."
"Brother, are you feeling fine?" Katrina says.
Yuya holds his head with one hand and says, "Roget! He tried to control me... he made Supreme King out..."
"I know something is fishy about it..." Reisho says. "But Security is another problem, right now we need to find Serena fast." He points at the sky.
Yuya gasps and says, "Obelisk Force? Here? We must be quick!" The others nod as they rush off.
Condor sees the sky and muses, "They have come, now the fun is about to begin..." Then he takes out the remote control and starts to press the button.
