Chapter 25: Noboru Strikes Back Again
At the Aibo Academy, the class is in session.
"Okay! Let's try another one. If you're on a bus that's traveling 55 kilometers an hour, and the Buddyfight Stage is 75 kilometers from the school. How long will it take to get there?" The teacher put up a question. Mihara then saw a Buddy Police Helicopter as it heads to the school.
"Hey, it's the Buddy Police!" Mihara said as the class saw it.
"Hey, look! They're heading to the Junior High Building!" Niitani said.
"You know anything about this, bro?" Baku asked.
"I'm kinda out of the loop since I've been on leave." Gao said.
"You should go see." Kuguru advised.
"Okay."
"Settle down now! We're still in a middle of class, kids!" The teacher said.
At the Junior High Building. Tasuku, Daisuke, and Stella landed to speak to the Headmaster Merikomu about this.
"A big surprise, indeed." Merikomu said.
"Thank you for cooperating." Tasuku said.
"We appreciate your help." Daisuke said.
"That doesn't mean we'll trust you after what you did, you may stay until the Buddy Police are done. Got it?"
"I understand." Daisuke nodded.
At the Student Council Room, Neginoyama is opening the door to let the Buddy Police in.
"You have a visitor." He said as Shido came to them. He was surprised for the unexpected visit as he sees them in a angry mood.
"Oh. What a pleasant surprise." Shido said as he let them in, "So, uh. What brings you here?" He asked as they told him about Sofia, "I can't believe that our Sofia is working with Yamigedo!"
"She was posing as Death Shido." Tasuku said, "I confirm it personally."
"It would seem that Gallows is her Buddy, but I thought he was yours, isn't he?" Daisuke asked.
"Oh that? Well he's not my Buddy anymore. But it did have a sneaking suspicion about her though. That's the deck, she used if you like to check it out." He advised.
"Thanks. It wouldn't look to have a quick look." Stella said as she was going to check the desk for any evidence.
"Do you know where she is? When's the last time you heard from her?" Tasuku asked.
"I've no idea. She hasn't been here in days." Shido said.
"When did she leave anyway?" Daisuke said.
"I don't know. She never told me where she went." Shido said then Tasuku got a call.
"Hi. Any news? No, nothing here yet either. Of course you be the first to know." Tasuku said as Stella found something in the desk. She found a tablet as Tasuku ended the call, "Unfortunately, the search of her home produced nothing useful at all."
"It looks like we're stuck." Daisuke said.
"But we have better luck with that tablet of hers. We'll be in touch with you." Tasuku said to Shido.
"My door's always open." Shido said as they left the school.
In the helicopter...
"You didn't want to check in on Gao?" Stella asked.
"You should know how he's doing ever since his condition." Daisuke said.
"I figured I'll see him at the meeting a little later. And besides, you sure you're going to be okay, not using your Buddy Skill?" Tasuku asked.
"No, you need at least have some companion after all. Besides I promised to help you."
"Daisuke..."
At the Student Council Office.
"A master criminal like me can outsmart those Buddy Cops, especially to Daisuke. I'm going to enjoy watching Master Ikazuchi punish Sofia!" Shido snickered as Sofia and Gallows appeared behind them.
"You don't really believe that you'll escape punishment, do you?" Sofia asked as Shido turned and noticed her.
"Gah! Are you nuts? The Buddy Police were just here, looking for you! Leave or they'll arrest me too!" Shido said.
"Come with us! We got bigger things to worry about!" Gallows said as Sofia activated her card, transporting them to meet their master.
At the hidden cave. Ikazuchi is using his electric power on the little Yamigedo. Shido, Sofia, Gallows came as they saw what's going on.
"Uh, what am I looking at here?" Shido asked.
"Why don't you tell us?" Sofia asked as Ikazuchi is creating a card from the little Yamigedo.
"It looks like, he's creating a new card!" Shido assumed.
At the Aibo Academy...
"Catching up on missed class again today?" Kuguru asked.
"No. Apparently Mr. Itsuke is busy on something else. I think I'll do some Aikikujitsu training instead." Gao recommended, "Later!" He leaves.
"We should head home too." Baku said as Kuguru nodded. Mihara and Niitani heard what they said.
"Aikikujitsu training, huh?" Niitani asked, "Wouldn't he used to practice Buddyfighting whenever he have the chance?"
"Yeah. I noticed that too!" Mihara said, "What's weird is Gao's only using Hero decks these days even in class!"
"Hey, you're right. Now that you mention it, that's the deck he used against Kazane, the other day."
"I heard some kids talking. He said for some reason, Gao is not able to use Dragon World decks anymore!"
"I'll be back!" Mihara heard a weird voice as it was Noboru who came to class, wearing sunglasses with American flag color on it, "By popular demand, I returned from the USA!" Mihara and Niitani were in no reaction, "Well? Aren't you guys gonna welcome me home? Come on, it's me! Noboru Kodo!" He took off his sunglasses.
"Uh yeah, we know it was you, Noboru." Niitani said.
"It's just that, 'I'll be back!' is something people say when they leave." Mihara explained the mistake, Noboru made.
Noboru was embarrassed as he got upset, "Agh! You don't get my American humor! Anyway, where's Gao? Either of you seem in around?" He asked. Mihara and Niitani looked at each other as they smiled and snickered as they told him what happened.
"Huh?! He can't use Dragon decks anymore?! We're talking about Gao Mikado, right?! Man, that's totally tragic!" Noboru reacted after hearing the news.
"That's just what I heard! Ask him!" Miharu said.
"Did you hear the news over there that Gao lost his first fight?" Niitani asked.
"Of course I did! I was in states, not on Pluto! Everyone who Buddyfights knows! His luck finally ran out, I guess." Noboru said., "He's always lucky with this game. Now he understands how I went through. Least, I didn't get all depressed though."
"Wait a second. It sounds to me like you came back to Japan, because you're worried about Gao!" Mihara realized as it surprised Noboru.
"Na uh! That's just crazy talk! America's got a lot of cool stuff and all but I got bored and wanted to come back that's all!" Noboru complained. Mihara and Niitani smiled as they think that wasn't true. Then Noboru blushed in embarrassment, "But since I gone to all this trouble to come back, it be a shame if I couldn't enjoy uh... I mean get a glimpse of his sad face!"
At the Sky Home...
"Sofia Sakharov has disappeared." Tasuku reported.
"Her whereabouts are unknown. No one has heard or seen her anyway." Daisuke reported.
"We believe she'll show herself by trying to get close to an Omni Lord. So we need to be on full alert and prepare for the unexpected." Tasuku said as he show the image of Sofia to Count Dawn and the members of Buddy Police Youth.
"Here is the rundown of the Omni Lord, we've identified so far." Daisuke said as the monitor showed what Omni Lords have been found, "First Omni Beast Lord, Ziun." Zanya held the card of him, "Second Omni Demon Lord, Asmodai."
"He's sleeping, yo!" Tetsuya said as he sees Asmodai, resting in the coffin.
"Seventh Omni Earth Lord, Count Dawn." Count Dawn nodded for his presence, "And the one who tricked us in Chonagoiya, Sixth Omni Storm Lord, Variable Cord."
"We're still trying to figure out how to track him down." Tasuku said.
"That leaves four to go, huh?" Tetsuya said.
"Actually there's only 3." Zanya said as he referred to Drum.
"Yeah. Yeah." Drum said as he pulled out the Emblem, "I know you guys are relying on me. I'm trying to become worthy of being Fifth Omni Dragon Lord. Maybe one day this will light up." He said as the emblem began to light up, "Hey! You see that?!" Then he realized something as it was Byakuya, who used the red flashlight on the orb.
"This is called Ninja Arts of Flashlight! Very illuminating."
"Byakuya! Stop fooling around!" Zanya said as he punished him by whacking his head. Tsukikage opened his scroll, 'I'm terribly sorry.'
Daisuke sighed, "Things couldn't get worst. Now that my sister is here." He sees his sister, sitting on the chair, waiting for them to finish.
Back at the hidden cave, the card has been completed.
"He actually made a new card!" Shido said as he was going to check on it.
"Hands off!" Ikazuchi yelled as he shocks Shido while Sofia protected herself, "That card belongs to me!" He takes the card, "I'm starving! Feed me some prey worthy of this card! And do it now!" He demanded as he felt the pain with purple lightning aura.
"Master? Are you okay?" Shido asked.
"It would appear he's unable to control himself very well right now." Sofia said.
"Find G-G-Gao Mikado, I'll fight him! And devour the next Fifth.. Omni Dragon Lord!" Ikazuchi said while still in pain.
"I don't think you're capable of fighting anyone." Shido said.
"Would you prefer that I eat you fools instead?!" He yelled as Shido got frightened.
"We will find him as you request." Sofia said.
At the shopping district, Daisuke is taking his sister to his apartment. It was silence as they haven't spoke a word since she arrived.
Haruka then tried to speak, "Uh... Big brother?"
"Any reasons why, you decide to come home after mom took you to the countryside?" Daisuke asked.
"Well, ever since the incident for being possessed and running away, I have to learn my lesson over to our grandparents and since Zanya and Akatsuki came to search for the Omni Lord. I was in favor to help them get it. Because of that, they were grateful and I wanted to go and help. And so..." Haruka explained.
"So you came here." Daisuke said as he sighed, "Well, I guess I could say, it's good to see you again." He said as Haruka became happy and hugged her brother. Then he received a call, "Yeah? Oh boy, why now of all times?" he ended the call, "Here's the key to my apartment. But if you're bored, go to CASTLE." He handed her the apartment key.
"Leaving for work again?"
"Sorry, I know I promised but..."
"No, you have a job to do. I'll be okay."
"Okay, be careful!" Daisuke said as he ran off to meet with Tasuku.
Back at the Sky Home...
"Really? Gao's gonna Buddyfight?" Count Dawn asked.
"Hello there!" Paruko is on the monitor for the live broadcast, "I'm Paruko Nanana, your guide for the exciting world of Buddyfight! Today, I'm at CASTLE, where Gao Mikado is gonna fight the mysterious challenger name, Tiger! At least that's what I heard! That's why I'm here!"
At CASTLE, Gao has arrived.
"Oh! Here's Gao now! Let's see what he has to say!" Paruko announced.
"Okay! Where is this 'Tiger'?" Gao asked as he's looking for him.
"Over here!" It was Noboru, wearing a Tiger mask, making his appearance. Gao then noticed something odd.
"Hey uh, why are you wearing a kitten mask?" Gao asked. Noboru then got mad.
"It's a tiger!"
"Well whatever you think you are, I'm gonna take you down with my Hero deck!" Gao said.
"Hold the phone! What's with that deck, pal?" Noboru asked, "I said I wanna have a Dragon battle with you!"
"I'm a little confused. Aren't you a Tiger?" Gao asked.
"Now you're a dragon?" Drum asked.
"No! I fight for Dragon World!"
"So then what's with the Tiger getup?" Drum asked as Noboru took off his mask.
"I wear because my last name is mean Tiger!"
"Look at that! The mysterious fighter is none other than Noboru Kodo!" Paruko announced as El Quixote came out of the deck.
"Don't forget about me!"
"I don't believe it! I haven't seen you like forever! How you've been?! And why on earth did you come back home?" Gao said excitedly after seeing his old friend again.
"To knock some sense into you, obviously." Noboru said as he took out Gao's hero deck and Mihara placed it in his bag and ran off CASTLE.
"Here, catch!" He dropped it down to floor below as Niitani grabbed it.
"Leave the rest to me!" Niitani said as he ran off but then he bumped into Haruka as she was heading to escalator.
"Ow!" Then she saw as it had the Hero cards in it, she picked one up, "Hm? Aren't these?"
"Ah!" Niitani yelled after seeing the mess, "Help me pick it up!"
"Ah right!" Haruka said as they are cleaning up the mess.
"So what did you go and do that for?" Gao asked.
"If you beat me, I'll give you your deck back. But now use your Dragon deck!" Noboru recommended as it surprised Gao.
"Uh oh." Drum was afraid of this.
"Yeah, sure. I understand."
"So Noboru's trying help Gao to have him use Dragon World again?" Haruka asked.
"Yeah, he's giving him the help he needs!" Niitani said.
"Wow! I never thought that Noboru was so nice!"
"Yeah, but he never admits it." Niitani and Haruka began to chuckle.
The CASTLE Stage has been set as Gao and Noboru got into their position.
"Hurry and luminize so I can prove I'm better than you!" Noboru bragged. But then on the center stage, a portal appeared as Sofia and Ikazuchi appeared on stage.
"It's you!" Gao saw Ikazuchi.
At the helicopter...
"It's Sofia Sakharov!" Tasuku said as he saw in the tablet, "Wait." He takes it.
"Hey! Rude there!" Daisuke said.
"Sorry. But look! Are they going after Gao?!" He asked.
"Looks obvious."
"Gao Mikado. Master Ikazuchi challenges you." Sofia requested, "Accept! Or suffer the same fate as your dear friend, Tenbu!"
"That's the guy who beat Gao?" Noboru asked as he saw the same guy who fought Gao the other day. Sofia then toss the black skull.
"Darkness Barrier activate!" The Darkness Barrier has been activated as it engulfed Gao and Drum, including Noboru and El Quixote.
At the Darkness Barrier has been set as Gao and Noboru were on the side of the stage.
"Just when you think you're out, they pull you back in!" Drum asked. Then Noboru and El Quixote were on the center stage.
"Where are we?" Noboru asked.
"In the Darkness Barrier." El Quixote said, "And we're stuck in here until we managed to defeat the Ikazuchi fellow!" Ikazuchi appeared on the other side as Paruko warped herself to the Darkness Barrier.
"Warp Successful! Wherever there are Buddyfights! Paruko Nanana will be there! We have another live broadcast from the Darkness Barrier!" Paruko announced.
"Hurry up already!" Ikazuchi demanded. Paruko became scared.
"Gao, will you be able to do this?" She asked Gao if he can still use his usual deck. Gao looked at it as he felt nervous. He still remembered the time he lost to Ikazuchi.
Game Over. Winner: Ikazuchi
Gao's deck case was broken as his cards fell. Yamigedo devoured Tenbu.
"Grandpa..." He clenched his deck as he felt the shock and dropped his deck case.
"You okay?" Drum asked as Gao fell to his knees, "You can't do this."
"Giving up without a fight? I didn't take you for a spineless loser! Oh well, it's dinner time!" Ikazuchi said as he plans to devour them.
"Not so fast!" Noboru yelled, "What kind of player brags about defeating someone who can't fight back? Let me, the Great Noboru Kodo be your opponent!" He recommended himself, "When I'm done with you, you won't be able to devour an ant!"
At the Skull Pit. Sofia watches the match.
"Did you hear that?! Noboru's just challenged Ikazuchi to fight him instead of Gao!" Paruko announced.
"And the one with forgiveness." Sofia heard a deep voice.
"Show yourself!" She pull out her card.
"All in good time. I apologized for being attempt to party." He appeared to be a skull knight, wearing a blue armor, with purple cape and a crown. He carries a white bow and rides a horse with white and blue armor.
"Who are you?" She asked.
"I am one of the Hundred Demons, First Knight of the Apocalypse, Gratos to be exact!" He introduced himself.
At the Sky Home. Tetsuya and Zanya are making their emergency launch to head on over to CASTLE of saving Gao.
"The fight is about to begin!" Paruko announced.
"Come on, hurry! I don't wanna miss anything!" Zanya said as Tsukikage agreed.
"Let's kick it to top gear!" Byakuya said.
"I'm glad I had that nap!" Asmodai said.
"Yeah! You're fully charged to help Gao, yo!" Tetsuya said.
At the helicopter...
"How can you help, Tasuku? You don't have a Buddy or even a Core Gadget." Stella said.
"Even so, I have no choice!" Tasuku said as Daisuke looked at his Core Deck.
"Tasuku! Use mine!" Daisuke recommended.
"Huh?"
"You need to hurry and help Gao!"
"But I..."
"No time! Just do it!"
Tasuku thinks as he nodded then takes Daisuke's Core Deck as he wears his Core Gadget.
Buddy Skill On
"Meet me at CASTLE!" Tasuku said as Ryuusei came out, "Let's go."
"Right!" They head off to CASTLE.
Back at the battle...
"Hundred Demons, lurking in the darkness! Destroy and rampage! Devour the World! Dark Luminize! Hundred Thunder Demons!"
"With Golden wings on my back, I swore through the sky! Luminize! Noble Wing Knights!"
"Buddyfight!"
"Time to Raise the Flag!"
"Parade of Hundred Demons!"
"I'm with Dragon World!"
(N: 10/ Item: None/ G: 2: None/None/None)
(I: 10/ Item: None/ G: 2: None/None/None)
"Ikazuchi has the first move!" Paruko announced.
At the Skull Pit...
"First, he calls Rampage Chizomegumo to the center! Then Strange Dilemma to the left! And he sets the Starved Yamigedo!" Paruko announced.
"No, Noboru! Stop! He's just too dangerous!" Gao warned.
"It's too late!" Drum said.
Back at the battle...
"Chizomegumo! Devour the fighter!" Ikazuchi ordered.
"In your dreams! I cast! Dragonic Thunder!" Noboru paid one gauge as Chizomeguo was shocked by lightning and was destroyed, "Hope you can do better than that, tough guy!"
"I can! Stranger Dilemma's Thunder Mind activate!" He said.
"Say what?" Noboru asked as Dilemma got the Yamigedo out from his body as it attacks.
"Behold my Thunder Mind!" Ikazuchi said as Yamigedo inflicted 1 damage.
End of Move
(N: 9/ Item: None/ G: 1: None/None/None)
(I: 10/ Item: None/ G: 2: Dilemma/Chizomegumo/None)
At the Skull Pit for Sofia.
"Yowza! What a terrifying move!" Paruko announced.
"That was Stranger Dilemma's ability. Was it not?" Gratos asked.
"Yes. A Thunder Mind activates when an opponent uses a spell." Sofia explained.
"How are you holding up, my boy?" El Quixote asked.
"Heh. I had a lot worst." Noboru said.
"Step aside and let me fight! I couldn't forgive myself if you ended up like Tenbu." Gao said on the monitor as Noboru grunted.
"Why do you never give me enough credit, Gao?!" He asked.
At the Skull Pit...
"What do you mean?" Gao asked.
"This guy beat you. So if I defeat him, it means I'm stronger than you, right?" Noboru asked.
"I'll win and prove to you once and for all that I'm the better Buddyfighter! I Draw! Charge and Draw! Buddycall to the right! Dragon Knight, El Quixote!" He Buddycalled as he regained one life.
"I'll charged til the ends of the Earth!" He said.
"I call Dragon Knight, Red Baron to the left! I equip soar now! Cavalry Dragon, Hyperion!" He paid 2 gauge as he equipped Hyperion.
"There it is! Noboru's become one with his monster instead of the three in the row formation!" Paruko announced.
"Red Baron! Go attack Dilemma!" He ordered.
"No wait!" Gao warned but it was too late.
"I'll show them what I can do. Helping Gao is just a bonus!" Noboru said as Red Baron shoots at Dilemma as he was destroyed.
"An Assault of Glory!" El Quixote attacked Ikazuchi as he inflicted 2 gauge as Noboru gained one gauge due to the effect.
"I'm tired of doubting my ability! And treating Gao like he's some sort of Hero!" Noboru said as he attacked Ikazuchi, inflicting 2 damage.
End of Move
(N: 10/ Item: Hyperion/ G: 1: Red Baron/None/El Quixote)
(I: 6/ Item: None/ G: 2: None/None/None)
At the Skull Pit, Gratos is watching...
"That warrior's something special." He looked at Noboru, "He could proved useful as a sacrificial pawn for the Great Yamigedo."
"I cast! Hundred Demon Sorcery, Akishoki!" He paid one gauge, "With 6 life, I can draw 2 cards!"
At the Sky Home...
"He deliberately allowed the attack so he could cast that spell. Increasing the cards in his hand does not go well for Noboru." Count Dawn said, "But if he can't use it without the Hundred Demon's card in the field." Then he thought of something, "His Set Spell must have the Hundred Demons Attribute!"
Back at the battle...
"He's calling One Hundred Demon's monster after the other!" Paruko announced as Ikazuchi called Zazamera to the left and Demonic Descend Ninja, Zeon to the right.
"Thanks to Zeon's ability, Dilemma is revived in the center position!" Paruko announced as Dilemma's revived.
"I equip! Feel in the Darkness of Terror. Awake the mighty jaws of wicked beast that hungers for misery! Thunder Claw, Narukami!" Ikazuchi equipped his item, "Devour him completely! My Hundred Demons!"
"I move Red Baron to the center!" Noboru moved Red Baron to the center as Zazamera destroyed Red Baron. Then Dilemma and Zeon joined together to attack, inflicting 3 damage together.
"Noboru's hit with 3 damage!" Paruko announced.
"Serve me best by perishing!" Ikazuchi used his Narukami to destroy Dilemma.
"Narukami boosts his critical by destroying a fellow monster!" Paruko announced.
"Disappear... Underling!" Ikazuchi attacks.
"I cast... Green Dragon Shield!" He nullified the attack as he regained one life.
"He blocks and gains one life!" Paruko announced.
At the hidden cave. Shido watched the match on his phone as Ikazuchi growled in frustration.
End of Move
(N: 8/ Item: Hyperion/ G: 1: None/None/EL Quixote)
(I: 6/ Item: Narukami/ G: 2: Zazamera/None/Zeon)
"Master's being too reckless out there." Gallows said sadly.
"He's using all of his energy to just stay standing. I hate to think what I might do if he loses the fight." Shido said.
Back at the battle...
"This will finish you off! I call to the left, Dragon Knight, Vlad Dracula!" He called forth the ultimate monster.
At the Skull Pit...
"Vlad Dracula's critical increases for each Dragon Knight card that's in the Drop Zone." Sofia explained.
"6. The critical of that is formidable indeed." Gratos said.
"And Ikazuchi has 6 life left!" Gao said.
"Noboru could've win it here!" Drum said.
Back at the battle...
"There's no way the weirdo's stronger than Gao." Noboru refused to admit it, "And if I defeat him, then Gao should return to his old self! There's sure is a lot writing on this! I could get another shot at fighting Gao!" He said as he looked at Ikazuchi's scary face, "My Ultimate Rival! I've gotta win this!"
At the Skull Pit...
"Somebody's on fire!" Gao said.
"Bloody Charge activate!" Noboru said as Vlad Dracula gains the power of Bloody Charge, "Dragon Knight, Vlad Dracula! Attack the fighter!" He gains 6 critical because of 6 Dragon Knights in the Drop Zone.
"I cast! Gedo Shield!" He paid one gauge as the shield appear with Yamigedo's head image is on it, "I'll devour the attack! Let's see how you respond to that, Dragon boy!" Ikazuchi said as the Gedo Shield used the attack on Noboru as he was dealt with 1 damage.
"Amazing! Noboru receives one damage point!" Paruko announced, "Along with blocking the attack, that spell inflicts damage on the opponent! Talk about one scary card!"
"Ready, my boy?!" El Quixote asked to attack.
"Oh yeah! Hyperion!"
"Assault of Glory!" They inflicted 4 damage together as they gained 2 gauge
End of Move
(N: 7/ Item: Hyperion/ G: 2: Dracula/None/El Quixote)
(I: 2/ Item: Narukami/ G: 1: Zazamera/None/Zeon)
"I'll finish him on my next turn!" Noboru said.
At the Skull Pit...
"You won't have a next turn, sorry." Sofia said as she expected something happening.
"I need to eat!" Ikazuchi then start grasping in pain.
"Don't look now! But I think something's wrong with Ikazuchi!" Paruko announced after seeing him suffered.
"I'm starving! Must devour! Feed me!" Ikazuchi then released the little Yamigedo as it devoured Zazamera and Zeon, "Most powerful demon beast that is starving for destruction! Devour the Hundred Demons and show yourself! Great Fiend, Yamigedo!" He called as the little Yamigedo transformed into Great Fiend, Yamigedo.
"Good golly! He's Buddycalled Great Fiend Yamigedo to the right position!" Paruko announced.
At the Skull Pit...
"This can't be good!" Gao was shocking for seeing Yamigedo on the field again.
Yamigedo then attacked Noboru.
"I cast Green Dragon Shield!" He nullified the attack as he regained one life.
"Once again, that spell helps him regained one life point!" Paruko announced.
"It's no use, Noboru! Watch out!" Gao tried to warn but it was too late to stop him.
"Yamigedo's Thunder Mind activate!" Yamigedo has its ability to attacked Noboru, inflicting one damage.
"What colossal power! Noboru was able to block Yamigedo's attack but he couldn't prevent the damage from Thunder Mind!" Paruko announced.
"Least it's better than taking a direct hit!" Noboru said.
"I said feed me! And I mean now!" Ikazuchi said as he performing a Link Attack with Yamigedo
"Here comes Yamigedo's Double Attack!" Paruko announced as Yamigedo devoured 2 damage at Noboru.
"Dinner is served! Thunder Claw, Narukami!" Ikazuchi inflicted 2 damage.
"You're not that tough! Time to show you the skills I picked up at the great old US of A!"
"Not yet!" Ikazuchi said as Noboru was confused, "The Dark and Evil they called Demonic! And all of it is controlled by me! Time for Final Phase! I cast!" He cast as the card he activated goes up and he pays 2 gauge.
At the Skull Pit..
"Did he say 'Final Phase'?!" Drum asked.
"I guess he must have Impact card!" Gao said.
"Now is the time to show your power!" Ikazuchi said as three summoning circles appear and revealed Yamigedo, "Unorthodox Arts, Shoraiabare Kandachi!"
"I shall ride again!" El Quixote said as he and Vlad are devoured by Yamigedos and Hyperion was devoured too.
"All his monsters and his item have been destroyed!" Paruko announced, "It's just like Daisuke's Impact card! What an incredible card!"
At the Skull Pit...
"There's also one thing comparing for Daisuke's Impact to Master Ikazuchi's. For each card that was destroyed, he inflicts damage points to his opponent." Sofia explained.
Ikazuchi and Yamigedo combined their power as he charged a giant electrical ball, he throws it as it attacked Noboru, inflicted damage, thus ending the game.
"Noboru!" Gao yelled.
Ikazuchi then fell as he was groveling down.
At the Sky Home...
"I'm not surprised. If he's absorbing Yamigedo's massive level of energy, there's no way his body will be able to handle it." Count Dawn said, "It's a miracle he's been able to keep it together for this long."
At the Skull Pit...
"I always wondered what the human threshold was for such power." Gratos said.
"We can't maintain the Darkness Barrier any longer." Sofia said.
Yamigedo begins to roar as the Darkness Barrier ended. Transporting them back to CASTLE.
"What happen? We lost?" Gao asked.
"Don't make a move, Sofia! You're completely surrounded!" Zanya said as he made it on time.
"We got an arrest warrant for you and Ikazuchi!" Tetsuya said, "So you better come peacefully, you dig?"
"Even in my weaken condition, I can still prevent you from making a getaway with that mysterious power of yours." Asmodai said.
"I cannot allow that to happen." Gratos said as his voice echoed.
"Who's that?!" Drum asked.
"You're defeated, so you lose everything!" He said as they saw Gratos appearing, "That is the Fight Code of Honor." He appeared behind Noboru.
"And just who are you supposed to be?!" Noboru asked.
"Silecne!" Gratos then captured Noboru in a sphere, "I will deal with you later!" He knocked him unconscious.
"What have you done?! Why you-!" El Quixote tried to attack but Gratos stopped him as he turned him into a card.
"I will be taking these two with me." Gratos said.
"You what?!" Drum asked.
"What do you expect? He lost. You must accept the consequence of defeat. And don't try to do anything. With your Omni Lord in reduced strength, there's no way to prevent the indefinable."
"You wanna test that theory?" Asmodai asked.
"Ha! No need! I bid you all farewell!" Gratos then use his rainbow mist as he disappeared with Noboru and El Quixote including Sofia and Ikazuchi.
"What sorcery is this? It's spooky looking mystery monster just made Ikazuchi, Noboru, and Sofia disappeared right before my very eyes!" Paruko announced.
"What the? How on earth did he do that?" Zanya asked. Tasuku made it to the CASTLE.
"Oh no, we're too late." Tasuku said.
"No! We couldn't make in time!" Ryuusei said.
In the Helicopter, Daisuke slammed his fist at the door.
"Damn it! We couldn't stop him in time!" Daisuke said as he was upset.
Gao and Drum got out of the elevator as they were sad. He saw the others.
"Sorry, Gao." Tasuku apologized.
"We didn't make it in time." Daisuke said. Then Gao fell to his knees as he began to cry.
"Poor Noboru. It should've been me fighting!"
"It's not your fault." Drum said.
"Noboru!" Gao yelled.
Spotlight shown as Daisuke and Ryuusei came on stage.
"Welcome back to more Corner Time!"
"This was bad enough for Tenbu to be gone but now Noboru's captured! What's next?!"
"Calm down. For now let's get started on this. This chapter will have one card. And get this, it's my strong Impact for Star Dragon World! Here's one now." He clapped his hand twice as the Impact card show itself. It shows a large amounts of energy in a starry form gathers in the user's fist as he gives a fighting pose before thrusting it into the opponent as he is struck with infinite fists of light. When Ryuusei is on the field with a Galacticarms, Ryuusei fuses with the energy and trapping the opponent before the impact, "My Infinite Stardust Fist! By paying 3 gauge and 1 life, I can only cast if I have a "Galactic Fighter, Ryuusei" on my field. I can deal 4 Damage to my opponent! And it gets better! If I have a "Galactic Fighter, Ryuusei" on my field with a "Galactic Arms" in its soul, the damage cannot be reduced and this card cannot be negated! It's a strongest card!"
"So does that mean we can win that card?"
"If it'll take to save others. The next chapter will be about Hundred Demons' Hunter, Ban encountering with the Dark Hero, Mukuro. Give me a review of what you think and give good Galactic ideas anything is fine. Til then bye for now!" He waved goodbye as the screen faded black.
