Yuma slowly opened his eyes tired. He tried to find out where he was. His head ached His last memory is, that dumon somehow got into his room and knocked Him out , but now much to his biggest dismay he was in a throne room in the...

"Welcome to the Barian World, Yuma Tsukumo!" Greeted him a familiar voice, his former friend's voice.

This voice belonged to the barian who was formally know as Reginald Kastle, asewll by his well-known nickname, Shark, now he was Lord Nash, the leader of the Barian Emperors was sitting on his throne, besides him his sister Merag and his most loyal servant Dumon. The others – Mizar ,Alito and girag– were standing down there, not far from him.

"You... You have kidnapped me dumon !!? What does this mean? Answer me, Shark!!!" Yelled Yuma desperatly.

"Don't panick and you will get your answers immediatly. And my name is Nash dumon brought you here on my order " He answered.

"What do you expect?What do you want from me?!" Asked Yuma and heated by his emotions moved towards throne podium, but his way was quickly blocked by Mizar.

Nash them stood up.

"The reason, why you were brought here by dumon Yuma, is not else, but our warfare. It came to a stalemate. Besides you, your friend Astral and his world, we have a new enemy." He said, while slowly walked down to him.

Yuma became curious.

"What...? And who?"

"Vector he betrayed us" girage said

"Exactly. He realesed Don Thousand we need your help you have enormous potental" merag

"I can't wait for the revenge!" muttered Alito.

"You will have your chance, my friend." Calmed him Nash, then turned back to Yuma.

"Thanks to Alito and girag, we know everything about ourselves Don Thousand was the one, who reincarnated us as Barians and only used us to restore his power. And now he wants to defeat and absorb our soul to achieve it. Beside this, the menace from Astral World is stronger from second to second as well. Our council decided we have to defeat him once and for all and we will be the only and true rulers of Barian World. Then we will destroy Astral World. But to accomplish this, we need a reinforcement."

"What... reinforcement...?"

"Recently we became enemies witch I hated Yuma. But soon we will fight together again... on the same side wether you want to or not so make it easy and join us ." Said Nash with greedy look in his eyes.

"What are you talking."Yuma started to became nervous and carefully took some steps backwards, but bumped into Mizar, who unnoticable got behind him.

"You have been chosen by the emporors Yuma. The power of Chaos is huge in you we can sense your enormous power as you know since your trip in the Astral World. You will be doubtless an excellent... Barian Emperor."

fear ran over Yuma's whole body and penetrated to everyone of his bones. They wanted to transform him into one of themselves? A barian Thais was crazy... he never expected this to happen he has to get out of their

And before he could do anything or make a run for it Mizar grabbed both of his hands, forced them back and pushed him onto his knees. He tried everything to free himself, but against the Emperor's strength he was chanceless.

"You can't do this!!!" Shouted Yuma desperately, while glanced up to Mizar and tried to freed himself from his grip.

"Of course we can. You're in full vulnerable situation Yuma. Here, in our World, we can do just what we want and we want you ." Said Nash.

"I would rather die, than become one of you! Destroy me then while you have the chance I won't join you !!" Argued Yuma.

"Why should we do that? That's Vector's lowsy plan to ensure we loose, but we see a great potential in you. Why get rid of you, when we can use your power to our advantage. Especially after you saved me there in the forest. You proved to me yuma that you are one of a kind of your race This Yuma is what we need and your true strengths . The will to protect others, protect the life of our world just what we want as well if you will not join us we will take measures to insure you join us ." Added Dumon , who appeared now beside his friend

"Exactly. Eliphes and his army want to destroy all of the souls, who found peace after their death here, in Barian World, but with your power yuma we will defend them and ourselves. Furthermore, Yuma, you proved to all barians that you're not just a simple Duelist and a weakling like the other humans . You're a , strong, determined and fearless warrior with unbreakable spirit, who never gives up. Your place is here, among us please we are not evil we don't want to force you."Said merag

"Yuma Tsukumo You dont even know, the power that is sealed in you, but as a Barian emperor along side us you will experience the true power of Chaos..." Said Nash with clenched fist and frightening yuma more

Nash than nodded towards Dumon, who raised the emblem to begin yumas transformation. It began glowing brightly along with the Emperor's Key on Yuma's neck, which began to levitate """ and wanted to move towards the golden emblem

" shark You know, I don't want destroy your world, any world! All I want is peace and if you release me, I promise I will do everything to convince Astral to stop his plan... what about my family my sister and friends and school they will notice i am missing He begged and struggled desperately.

Dumon lovered his hand and looked at his master.

"Peace is what we want, as well. But it won't be peace... not until you're not one of us, we not settled the things with Vector, Thousand and your friend Astral is not destroyed with his world and for the last time my name is Nash and as for school you will only come here when you need to and you can visit your sister I know how much you love Kari tsukumo just as I love merag my sister . Dumon, if you please..." Nodded Nash towards his comrade, who raised his hand again.

"No... please, Shark... don't do it..."

But Yuma's begging was in vain. His Key and the Barian Emblem merged with a blinding flash and the Yuma felt pain and his scream filled the throne room as the Barian power flooded though him. Seconds later, he collapsed and his eyes closed...

...

"Yuma..." Nash's voice was heard in the distance and Yuma slowly opened his eyes again. His head pounded a bit, but it quickly vanished.

"Yuma... are you ok" Said Nash and offered his hand to help him up. As Yuma accepted the help, he noticed, his skin turned into black. He stepped to a Baria Crystal and his eyes widened In shock

His whole body was pitch black now and more muscular. The same parts, as Dumon and Nash - his shoulders, forearms and shins - covered with dark red armor, his waist with a same belt, as in Zexal form, only this time completely dark red. On his forehead just before his red bangs he has now a diadem, similar to Nash's, under his eyes the two, well-known green markings. Similar green markings were found on various parts of his body. The Emblem from his chest wasn't missing as well: It was a perfect and beautiful combination of his Key and the Barian Emblem, which transformed him. Only his hair and his eyes remained the same, although his glance became more intimidating.

He turned back the others, they were watching him silent with admiration in their look they could tell this was not a mistake . At last Nash broke the silence.

"So Yuma... what do you think now?"

Yuma looked at his hands again.

"I... I can't believe it I'm a barian"He stated. His voice became sharper and deeper.

"Yuma this is your power alone the power of caos is not bad " mizar replied

"Yes... It's so cool..." Said Yuma, while first clenched his fists, than formed energy balls with them.

He felt himself much more powerful And stronger .

"Come Yuma, I want to show you something..." Said Nash and along with Dumon the trio teleported into a field, which was filled with thousands of soldiers.

"This is my army. For whom We responsible and who your friend Astral wants to destroy and who we will protect ."

Noticing their leader, they all bowed quickly, except a little girl, who ran straight to Nash. She looked exactly, like younger version of Rio.

"You're back again, my king!!!" She said, while Nash picked her up and sit her on his arm. Her face beamed from happiness.

"Yes Iris, I came to check, if everything's right."

"And who is he? I didn't see him before..." She pointed to Yuma.

"He is Yuma. He joined us now."

She send a greeting smile towards Yuma, who wanted requite it, but couldn't because the lack of mouth, but he felt as warmth flooded him.

"We have to go now, Iris." Said Nash and put her down. She bowed and ran back towards others, disappeared among them.

The trio then teleported back into the throne room.

"Now you understand this Yuma?" Asked him Nash.

Suddenly, he remembered to Dumon's words and for something more horrible as well eliphes wanted to destory for no reason

It was he, who started this war. He wants to destroy Barian World and thereby Rank-Up their own world. And Astral is his soldier as he said himself. They are the reeal troublemakers and he helped to them... to complete their plans

Realizing these truths, deep pain and dissapointment filled Yuma. Exactly when Ray, who was supposed to be his friend, was actually not else, than his deadliest enemy, Vector. And now with Astral just happened the same..Nash could see yumas memory's and emotions and grew a wide smile

"Yes... I totally understand now lord Nash. I can't watch as Astral destroys them or even this beautiful world..." He answered, struggling with his tears from his emotion Yes . Astral World was beautiful as well, but from the moment, when his transfromation was complete, he felt stronger from second to second, that this was and this is his true homeworld.

Nash and Dumon shared a very joyful glance. Exactly as they expected; they won't need to brainwash Yuma, he will accept his new mission and new his world willingly. Thereby he will be completely determined to achieve it, he will use his full power during the duels and Astral or his friends won't be able to bring him back to their side. But what even they couldn't have expected that Yuma would have found their world beautiful.

Nash put his hand consolingly on his shoulder.

"Yuma, your dueling skills are already impressive, but here with us , with your new power and our help, you have the chance to master them higher levels, than you can imagine and become the strongest Duelist in the universe. Yuma... help us... accept your fate, as an Emperor and your dream of becoming the best will become true."

Yuma the glanced back to Nash over his shoulder, straight into his eyes. He saw something encouraging and incentive in them. He recognized his old friend Shark behind the face of Barian Leader Nash... and now his friend needs his help... and he can't let down a friend... shark needed him and he was right about the dueling... he saw their amazing power and skills... and now he can learn from them...

Then he kneeled down and much to everyone's biggest pleasure, he made his oath.

"I will protect your... our world and serve you Sh... sorry Lord Nash. But there's something I can't do: I was there at Astral World and there were innocent souls as well, whom I can't hurt and I can't see Astral, as my enemy, but if he still wants to harm this world , then he is no more my friend and I have to stop him." He said and when he glanced up, they could see in his eyes, that these are not empty words but very true yuma was ready to destory astral and eliphes

"Only a true Barian Emperor can speak like that. You are definitely one of us now, Yuma, our brother. Stand up..." Ordered him Nash and as he obeyed, Nash hugged him tightly.

"Forgive me Yuma, I should have been realize earlier, you are a honest, trustworthy friend I never should have doubted you !" He said with tears in his eyes.

Yuma was speechless that Nash was like this , only rendered the friendly hug.

The others joined in row to welcome their new partner.

"My brother, it will be a great honor to fight alongside with you finally. We didn't have even a duel against each other..." Said Dumon.

" yes we can duel if you wish sometime " yuma replied

Yuma could haven't believed it he would be doing this but the barians were not who astral said they were they were only defending their world from him

" lord Nash what about a new name I want to start a new life and I am a new person now " yuma stated

"What about utopia welcome utopia fellow emporor" Nash stated

" Thankyou lord Nash I have a request what if we could undo the thoughts that my former friends had a about astral and Ally with earth because astral has led me and my former friends to believe your the enemy if the choose not to join us we destroy them they have much potential in our fight against astral world " Utopia examined

" you make a valid point I agree but Utopia we need numbers before we can face vector go my friend and collect the numbers I'll come with you to help make it quicker " Nash replied

" very bell my lord" Utopia replied with loyalty

" you can just call me Nash" Nash replied

"Very well" utopia replied Nash then opened a portal to earth and they both stepped through
