Chapter 54: Restoration Peace
"Grangadez! Move to the center!" Gao said as Grangadez moves to the center. But then Zarrtelganger attacks first as he destroyed Grangadez. But he came back due to Soulguard as he plans on crushing him down. But Ignir blasted his fire attack as he destroyed Grangadez but then he came back again.
"He revives due to Soulguard!" Paruko announced, "However! He has no soul cards left! And Yamigedo has a monster with Double Attack! Hyakugan Yamigedo! Here it comes!" Hyakugan Yamigedo then devours Grangadez as it destroys him with no Soulguards left. "Normally, Gao would take 3 damage due to Lifelink, but Dragoemperor reduces the damage by 1!" Gao takes one damage for Lifelink.
"This is bad! He has no monsters left!" Daisuke said.
"If the next attack hits him...!" Tasuku said.
"Double Attack!" He makes his second attack.
"I cast! Dragon Lord Shield!" He cast as he nullified the attack and reduced the damage.
"You don't give up easily, do you?"
The Move End
(G: 1/ Item: Dragoemperor/ G: 1: None/None/None)
(I-Y: 4/ Item: None/ G: 2: Zarrtelganger/Hyakugan Yamigedo/Ignir)
"But no matter how tough you act, I will not be defeated. I will devour this planet until not even a speck of dust is left! The sun will never rise again!"
"We're not going to let you do that!" Gao said as he pulled the lever and it turned sideways, "Draw! Charge and Draw! I pay 1 gauge and Buddycall Fifth Omni Dragon Lord, Drum to the right!" He Buddycalled as he regained one life. Drum then moves to the right.
"I'm the one who's going to pummel Hyakugan Yamigedo, together with Gao! Fifth Omni Dragon Lord, Drum!" Drum said.
"I cast! Dragonic Grimoire!" Gao cast as he drew 3 more cards.
"He's going with a Draw Spell too!" Paruko announced.
"Drum! Attack Hyakugan Yamigedo!" Gao said as Drum set his weapon.
"Leave it to me! Roaring Slash! Drum Saber!" He attacks.
"I cast. Hundred Demons Sorcery, Yamitagae." He cast as he nullified the attack.
"Then I'll use my Dragoemperor and..." Gao makes his attack.
"I cast. Hundred Demons Sorcery, Yamitagae." He cast as he nullified the attack again.
"Damn! He's got some tough defense!" Drum said.
"This turn, Gao is unable to destroy Hyakugan Yamigedo at all, and it's The Move End!" Paruko announced.
"Damn it! He hasn't gotten close enough to slice its head off!" Daisuke said.
"Is he going to lose?" The girl asked.
"He has to!" The boy with the straw hat said.
"But there's no way he could win!" The boy with the red jacket said.
"But Gao hasn't given up on winning yet." Tasuku said.
"It's obvious since he won't go down so easily." Daisuke said.
"That's because he believes there's some way that he can win, and that's why he's fighting right now."
"Inverse Yamigedo uses a Draw Spell to increases his hand cards again, and attacks Gao directly using Hyakugan Yamigedo!" Paruko announced.
"I'll devour you! Gao Mikado!" He sends the Yamigedo creatures to attack Gao.
"I cast! Dragon Lord Shield!" He cast as he reduced the damage to 1.
"He's blocked it! And because Gao has taken 1 damage, Fifth Omni Dragon Lord, Drum's ability activates!" Paruko announced as Drum activates his ability.
"Dragon Lord Concussion Slash!" He blasted his attack at the center head as Ikazuchi-Yamigedo evaded it.
"Drum's ability has activated!" Paruko announced.
"Unorthodox Arts! Immortal Hyakugan!" He discarded 5 cards as the head regenerates.
"Thirteen more attacks until Hyakugan Yamigedo can be destroyed!"
"Double Attack!" He sends it again to attack Gao.
"I cast! Blue Dragon Shield!" He cast as he nullified the attack and gained a gauge.
"Gao uses his second Counterspell in a row to block another attack.!" Paruko announced.
"I wonder how long you'll last."
Your Move
"Draw! Charge and Draw!"
'Gao. We'll never stop believing. You will be the sun that brings light to this world once again.' Tasuku thinks.
'Don't let us down, Gao. The future is in your hands. We will support you all the way until the very end for defeating Yamigedo once and for all.' Daisuke thinks.
"I cast Dragonic Grimoire and draw 3 cards!" Gao cast as he drew 3 more cards.
"Wh-Wh-What's this?! He uses another Draw Spell to increase his hand cards!" Paruko announced.
"A Dragon Lord that exceeds all Dragon Lords! Lead us beyond the limits, and to victory! I pay 2 gauge and super-evolve!" He paid 2 gauge as Drum evolved in the burst of flames.
"My name is... Fifth Omni Super Dragon! Kaizer Drum! I'm here and ready to fight!" Drum evolved to Kaizer Drum.
"I told you already. I do not fear any Omni Lord!" Ikazuchi-Yamigedo said.
"Then I'm going to hit you right in that smug, proud face of yours! Howling Blazer!" He sends his flaming dragon spirit as it destroys 5 heads.
"Unorthodox Arts! Immortal Hyakugan!" He discarded 5 cards as the heads regenerates.
"Pulverizing Sky Roar! Drum Saber the End!" He slashed at the head.
"Unorthodox Arts! Immortal Hyakugan!" He discarded 5 cards as the head regenerates. Then Gao attacks to slash at the head, "I cast! Hundred Demon Sorcery, Yamitagae." He cast as he nullified the attack, "Looks like this is the end for you."
"U-U-Unbelievable! He blocked it with a Counterspell! Gao is down to one life, and unfortunately it's The Move End for him! Can he survive the next turn with just two hand cards?" Paruko announced.
"Draw. Charge and Draw! This will end you, Gao Mikado!" He sends the creatures to devour him as his life reached 0.
"Steadfast Bond, activate!" Drum burns himself as Gao regains one life back.
"By discarding one of Kaizer Drum's soul cards, Gao revives with 1 life!" Paruko announced.
"I owe you one, Drum! Thanks to you, I can still fight!" Gao thanked his partner.
"Of course you can count on me! I'm your Buddy!" Drum said.
"Then I will shatter that bond! I cast!" He brings out three Hundred Demons from the Drop Zone as it returns to the deck.
"Once again, three monsters from the Drop Zone have appeared!" Paruko announced.
"Damn it! A Counterspell!"
"Evil Deity Sorcery, Kyodamagurai! Take this!" He brought out a big Yamigedo from his body as it devoured Drum.
"Drum!" Gao yelled.
"Wh-Wh-What's this?! This card destroys a monster size 2 or smaller and in addition, increase life by 1!" Paruko announced as Ikazuchi-Yamigedo regains one life.
"If Kaizer Drum has no cards in his soul, Steadfast Bond will not activate. In other words! You can no longer change your life points to 1! You will lose to my Double Attack!"
"Kaizer Drum uses up his last soul card and revives due to Soulguard! He revives in the right position!" Paruko announced.
"Even if I'm out of soul cards, Gao Mikado will win!" Drum believes.
"Winning against me is impossible, even if you tried for a million years! This Double Attack will finish you!" The body opens its mouth as it brings out the Yamigedo creatures to devour Gao.
"I cast! Blue Dragon Shield!" He cast as he nullified the attack and gained a gauge.
"Here it comes! Just when he needs it most, a Dragon Shield! In addition to neutralizing the enemy's attack, it increases Gao's gauge! He had it! As usual, Gao Mikado had one in reserve!" Paruko announced as she sees Ikazuchi-Yamigedo getting irritated.
'He should have nothing left up his sleeve. But why doesn't he give up?' He thinks and asked himself, 'Does he seriously think that he can beat me?'
As Gao was about to draw.
"Gao." Drum called to his partner, "I met them just now."
"Huh?" Gao was confused.
"I met Gramps and Ikazuchi!" Drum meant for what he saw when he was devoured.
At the inside of Hyakugan Yamigedo. Drum was floating down.
'When I was hit by that Counterspell, I ended up in Hyakugan Yamigedo's belly and saw them!' Drum said. He then landed as he saw Ikazuchi who is unconscious.
"Huh?! Ikazuchi!" He checked to see if he's alive, "He's alive." Then he looked and notice Tenbu who was still unconscious, "Gramps!" He saw that he was floating and assumed he wasn't alive, "He... died? May he rest in peace." Assuming Drum made a joke as Tenbu opened his eyes.
"Hey! Don't kill me off like that!" Tenbu complained.
"Huh?!"
"I've just been resting my body until the right opportunity presented itself." Tenbu said.
"Opportunity?" Drum asked.
"The opportunity to escape, of course!"
"He said that?! Grandpa Tenbu did?!" Gao asked excitedly.
"Yeah!" Drum nodded.
"Then I'll use this draw to save Ikazuchi, Grandpa Tenbu, and everyone else!" His Core Gadget then opens up, "With this draw, Charge and Draw... I'm going to save everyone!"
Future Force
"Draw!" Gao drew as he was bursting in a pillar of flame. Tasuku, Daisuke, and the kids saw it happening.
"Is that...!" Daisuke said.
"Could it be?" Tasuku asked.
"What in the world has happened to Gao?!" Paruko announced.
At the present time, at the helicopter.
"So the Future Force can be used in the Future as well." Kyoya said after witnessing it, "As I recall, that power is supposedly sent back in time from a future version of yourself."
"That's right. Why is Gao Mikado the only one who can use the Future Force in the future?" Elf asked, curiously.
"I witnessed that Daisuke is able to do that as well. In all probability, it's the same principle as the petrification threads. Hyakugan Yamigedo has warped the fabric of time-space around Earth, and linked the past and the future. Because of that, the petrifcation threads continues to spread. But as a result, Gao Mikado is able to receive power from his future self. He can use the Future Force." Sophia explained about the reason of Future Force.
Back at the future. Gao has turned to his Future Force.
"Charge and Draw!" Gao drew as he was bursting in flames.
"What can you do with only two hand cards?" He asked.
"Here it is! The card that he gave to me, because he believed in me..." He drew the card that Ikazuchi gave him, "The card with the great power!"
"Gao is down to 1 life! Is there any way that he can defeat Hyakugan Yamigedo during this turn?!" Paruko announced.
"Drum! We're gonna take down Hyakugan Yamigedo this time!" Gao said.
"All right!"
"You say you'll defeat me during this turn?!"
"Howling Blazer!" Drum used his ability as he destroys multiple heads again.
"Unorthodox Arts! Immortal Hyakugan!" He discarded 5 cards as the head regenerates.
"Pulverizing Sky Roar! Drum Saber the End!" Drum slashed 4 heads.
"Kaizer Drum's attacks are relentless! But once again, Hyakugan Yamigedo uses Unorthodox Arts, Immortal Hyakugan to revive! Nine more to go!" Paruko announced. Gao then makes his attack.
"I cast! Hundred Demons Sorcery, Yamitagae." He cast as he nullified the attack.
"Oh no! And we still have nine more to go!" Paruko announced as Ikazuchi-Yamigedo snickered.
"I thought you said you'd defeat me during this turn! Now, I'll devour you during my next turn!"
"My turn isn't over yet!" Gao said.
"U-U-Unbelievable! Is he going to announce the Final Phase?!" Paruko announced, "But as long as Hyakugan Yamigedo is in the center. Even with Kaizer Drum and Dragonemperor on the field, he can't cast Giga Howling Crusher!"
"What trick are you trying to play, this late in the game?!" He asked angrily.
"If you think it's a trick, you'd better open your eyes wide and see for yourself!" Drum advised.
"Final Phase!" Gao raised the card.
"He's done it! He declared the Final Phase!" Paruko announced, "How can he possibly defeat his opponent, who protects his remaining 5 life with Hyakugan Yamigedo?!"
"Ikazuchi believed in me, and gave me this Impact card. I'm going to use it, with gratitude." Gao said.
"You can't defeat me with a mere Impact card."
"I cast! Unparalleled Arts, Omni Lord Infinity Burst!" Gao cast as 9 summoning circles appeared above him, revealing all nine Omni lords together as they were in psychic projection.
"U-U-Unbelievable! Returning from the Drop Zone, we have First Omni Beast Lord, Ziun! Second Omni Demon Lord, Asmodai! Third Omni Water Lord, Miserea! Fourth Omni Fire Lord, Burn Nova! Fifth Omni Dragon Lord, Drum! Sixth Omni Storm Lord, Variable Cord, Seventh Omni Earth Lord, Count Dawn, Eighth Omni Deity Lord, Grangadez! Ninth Omni Brave Lord, Mukuro! All of them are appearing as psychic projection!" Paruko announced, "I've never seen anything or heard of anything like this!" She was so surprised.
At the inside of Hyakugan Yamigedo...
"Child." Tenbu poked at Ikazuchi to see if he's awake, "Child!" Ikazuchi then opened his eyes.
"Tenbu!"
"We have much to discuss later. Right now, we're going to escape!" Tenbu advised.
"First Omni Beast Lord, Ziun! Activate!" Gao said.
"Take this!" Ziun first struck at the head as he destroys it, "I'll leave the rest to you!" He then turned into a card as he returned to the deck.
"Unorthodox Arts! Immortal Hyakugan! I will not be defeated!" He discarded 5 cards as the head regenerates.
"As we feared, Hyakugan Yamigedo revives again! Eight more to go, but is this as far as Gao's getting?!" Paruko announced.
"I cast!"
"What?! How can he cast again?!" He asked.
"That's right. What in the world is going on?" Paruko was confused.
"How can you use the same card again?!"
"I can use it more than once. This is Unparalleled Arts, Omni Lord ∞ Burst! As long as I have an Omni Lord on my field and return an Omni Lord from Drop Zone to my deck. I can cast this card as many times as I want!" Gao explained.
"As many times as you want?"
"U-U-U-Unbelievable! By casting this card eight times in the row, he can destroy Hyakugan Yamigedo!" Paruko announced as she cried and flow of tears, "Yamigedo has no hand cards, so he has no way of blocking these attacks!"
"That's Gao for you!" Tasuku said as the kids were happy.
"Infinity... Just like my Impact except his Impact was entrusted by Ikazuchi." Daisuke said.
"Devil Lariat!" Asmodai punched at one of the heads as he destroys it and returns to the deck.
"Unorthodox Arts! Immortal Hyakugan!" He discarded 5 cards as the head regenerates.
"Seven more to go!" Paruko announced.
"Activate!" Gao cast again for Miserea's turn to attack.
"Nereus Stream!" Miserea blasted a water attack as he destroys the head and returns to the deck.
"Six more to go!" Drum said.
"Activate!" Gao cast for Burn Nova to attack.
"Burn! Burn! Very bashing! Nice to meet you!" He spins around as he attacks the head again as he destroys it and returns to the deck.
"Five more to go!" Tasuku said.
"Activate!" Gao cast for Variable Cord's turn to attack.
"Variable Typhoon!" He blasted at the head as he destroys it and returns to the deck.
"Unorthodox Arts! Immortal Hyakugan!" He discarded 5 cards as the head regenerates.
"Four more to go!" Daisuke said as Gao and Ikazuchi-Yamigedo panted for exhaustion.
"Keep going! Tenbu and Ikazuchi are sure to escape!" Count Dawn said.
"I get it! Activate!" He cast for Count Dawn to attack.
"Di-li-culum!" He attacks at the head as he destroys it and returns to the deck.
"Unorthodox Arts! Immortal Hyakugan!" He discarded 5 cards as the head regenerates.
"Three more to go!" Paruko announced.
"Activate!" He cast for Grangadez to attack as he struck at three heads as he destroys it and returns to the deck.
"Two more attacks until Hyakugan Yamigedo is destroyed for good!" Paruko announced.
"Isn't he out yet? Grandpa Tenbu..." Gao waited for his friends to come out of Hyakugan Yamigedo.
At the inside of Hyakugan Yamigedo. Tenbu carries Ikazuchi with him.
"Here we go, child." Tenbu said.
"All right." Ikazuchi said as he nodded.
"Shadow Victor!" Mukuro slashed at three heads as he destroys them and returns to the deck.
Then a hole appears from the belly.
"Now's our chance!" Ikazuchi said as Tenbu flies out. Then Ikazuchi saw something, "That's...!" He used his wings as he flies down to check.
"Hey! Child!" Tenbu said as he got out first.
"What?!" Ikazuchi-Yamigedo noticed Tenbu came out.
"Grandpa Tenbu!" Gao was happy to see him again.
"Gramps!" Drum was happy to see him.
"How is this possible? Bursting out from Hyakugan Yamigedo, it's Grandpa Tenbu!" Paruko announced.
"Immortal Hyakugan!" He discarded 5 cards as the head regenerates.
"Finally, finally, finally! Inverse Yamigedo is down to 3 cards in his deck! Hyakugan Yamigedo can't revive any more!" Paruko announced.
"Grandpa Tenbu! Where's Ikazuchi?" Gao asked as he only saw Tenbu but not Ikazuchi.
"Well, you see..." Tenbu wanted to explained.
At the inside of Hyakugan Yamigedo as Ikazuchi was left behind.
"Yamigedo!" He saw his Buddy as it was unconscious after being devoured, "Hey! Pull yourself together!"
Then Ikazuchi's Core Gadget shows the screen of where Ikazuchi is at.
"Ikazuchi!" Gao saw him on the orb.
"Yeah! There's no way I could leave you behind!" Ikazuchi said as he listened to his buddy.
"If Ikazuchi stays inside, I can't destroy Hyakugan Yamigedo..." Gao said as he couldn't do this with his friend inside.
"Gao." Drum said, "He's chosen to go down with his Buddy."
"Drum..."
"Even if he was tricked into becoming his Buddy in the beginning, Yamigedo is Ikazuchi's one and only Buddy. If I was in his position, I think I'd do the same thing."
"Gao Mikado! Forget about me! Just do it!" Ikazuchi begged Gao to finish off Hyakugan Yamigedo.
"Saving the world is way more important than saving me!"
"They're both important!" Gao yelled.
"If you don't, you'll be destroyed!"
'But Gao is...' Drum thinks, 'My Buddy is... someone unconventional!'
"You're too soft-hearted. You're unable to sacrifice Ikazuchi, and so you're unable to destroy the Hyakugan Yamigedo in the center. Now, hurry up and end your move!" He said as Gao grunted.
"Gao! You'd do this, for someone like me?" Ikazuchi asked as he shed a tear.
"It's too early for tears!" Tenbu said as Ikazuchi heard his voice as he appeared inside again.
"What are you doing here?!" He asked.
"There's no time! We're getting out of here, now!" Tasuku said as he and Daisuke were with Tenbu in their Future Force.
"Gao's needs this chance to destroy Hyakugan Yamigedo. And we need to get you out of here in order to do that!" Daisuke said.
The body opens its mouth as Ikazuchi-Yamigedo felt something in his body.
"I-Impossible!"
"Radiant Punisher!"
"Infinite Stardust Fist!" They used their Impact cards to break out of the mouth as they escaped with Tenbu, carrying Yamigedo.
"All right!" Gao said.
"They did it!" Drum said.
"Do it!" Ikazuchi said as they got out.
"All right!" Gao nodded.
"How dare you do this to me!"
"Unparalleled Arts, Omni Lord ∞ Burst! Fifth Omni Dragon Lord, Drum!" Gao cast for the final attack.
"How dare you do this to me!"
"Activate!"
"Roaring Slash! Drum Saber!" Drum slashes the heads as he destroyed Yamigedo, once and for all as he returns to the deck.
"Impossible! How can anything destroy me?"
"It's a miracle! The only word for this is miracle!" Paruko announced as she cried tears of joy, "Hyakugan Yamigedo appeared to be an unconquerable fortress, but Gao has broken through!"
"All that's left is him!" Drum said.
"But you only have 1 life left! I'll finish you off during my turn!" Ikazuchi-Yamigedo said.
"My Final Phase isn't over yet!" Gao said.
"Of course, you'll finish him off with that move, right?" Tenbu asked.
"Yeah!" Gao held the Impact card.
"What?!" He asked as Drum became a dragon spirit.
"I cast! Roar! Dragon Lord's War Cry!" He got inside the Impact as he sends it down to attack, "Impact! Me and..."
"My..."
"Giga Howling Crusher!" He crushes down and defeated Ikazuchi-Yamigedo once and for all.
"This is madness! I am immortal! My body is eternal and indestructible! It is impossible for me to be destroyed!" He said as he got completely destroyed during the Impact.
(G: 1/ Item: Dragonemperor/ G: 0: None/None/Drum)
(I-Y: 0/ Item: None/ G: 0: None/None/None)
Game End. Winner: Gao Mikado
Gao's Future Force wore off.
"All right! Thank you very much!"'
"He did it! Gao pulls off a massive win! Earth has been saved!" Paruko announced. The kids watched as they were amazed and happy for the victory. Then Yamigedo turns into a card as he returns to Ikazuchi's deck.
"Ikazuchi! I'm so glad you're not hurt!" Gao said.
"I'm not Ikazuchi anymore. I'm Bolt Fuchigami." Bolt said as he declared his real name. Then the future started to change, as the wasteland becomes a normal futuristic city.
"Because Hyakugan Yamigedo has been destroyed, history has changed, and the despair filled future seems to have changed to a different one." Suzaku said as everyone saw people in the future.
"I call to the center!" Tasuku heard the same kid's voice.
"What? You're calling Jack again?" The girl asked disappointingly.
"He is the best after all." The kid with the straw hat said.
"In the future, Buddyfight still exist!" Tasuku said.
"I guess it'll always remain the same for the years to come." Daisuke said.
"Well then, I'm heading back to my homeworld." It surprised everyone, "Star Dragon World exists once more." He then transforms to his Omni self, "Let us meet again, if the stars align." He flies back to Star Dragon World.
"Oh..." Gao said.
"He's gone." Tasuku said.
"Probably for the best. Since it's over." Daisuke said.
"Um... Isn't Variable Cord the only one who can Time Jump?" Paruko asked as it surprised them.
"That's right! He's the only one!" Gao said.
"Are we going to have to live in the future from now on?!" She asked dramatically.
"That sounds lovely, my bride! This is quite the honeymoon!" Tenbu complimented.
"You've not changed at all!" Paruko complained.
"It's okay. Here he comes!" Tasuku said as he saw the portal as Jack and Ryuusei came through.
"Tasuku!" Jack yelled.
"Daisuke!" Ryuusei yelled.
"Oh, Ryuusei's with him." Daisuke said as they landed.
"Jack!" Tasuku ran and hugged his Buddy.
"Nice to see you're okay, Ryuusei." Daisuke said as he walks to him as he gave a pat on his shoulder.
"And so we used Jack's Time Jump to return to the present."
Bolt went back to his village as he sees his family turned back to normal, he cried as he and his Core Gadget, bowed for forgiveness as his family hugged him for relived.
"Bolt returned to Fuchigami Village."
At the Mikado Residence.
"And the nine Omni Lords returned to their worlds..." Drum then returns the Emblem to Tenbu, "Or continued to live on Earth... each of them choosing their own paths." Tenbu then transforms back to his Omni self as he and the Cavalries follow him back to Dragon World, "I'm sure we'll meet them again, someday."
At the helicopter...
"I wonder what could this be? A new world has appeared at coordinates that shouldn't exist." Elf said as he noticed the planets on the tablet, "One... two... Oh my, there's even more!"
"Because Hyakugan Yamigedo was destroyed, all of the worlds that he devoured have returned to their original locations." Kyoya explained the conflict.
"Huh?"
"Then the wall between worlds that were being destroyed..." Sophia noticed.
"I'm sure that will be repaired as well. As I thought, I'll have to do it myself." He advised.
Later, at the HQ, where it was finally repaired. At sunset, Gao returned his Buddy Police Trainee badge to Count Dawn.
"You say that you've lost the qualifications to be a Buddy Police Officer?" Count Dawn assumed.
"During that fight, I was enjoying battling Hyakugan Yamigedo. It looks like all I'm really cut out is playing Buddyfight." Gao made his decision.
"If Gao is quitting, I will too!" Tetsuya said as he toss his badge to Count Dawn as he resigned his position. Then Zanya plans to returned his badge by hand.
"Elder Brother! Why don't you continue?" Akatsuki considered as Zanya looked at the badge.
"Once I'm an adult... I'll go through the proper channels and become a real Buddy Police officer!" Zanya swore as Count Dawn nodded in agreement.
"I understand. I accept your resignation. The very person who saved the world through Buddyfight thinks that playing Buddyfight is all he can do."
"It looks like the Buddy Police Youth will have to disband." Tasuku said.
"It was fun while it lasted. We do have some good times after all." Daisuke said.
"Yes. But are you sure this is what you two wanted? What will you two do if Yamigedo attacks us once more?"
"If that happens, then we'll join forces again and fight! Right Daisuke?" Tasuku said.
"Indeed."
"Then I'll leave it to your hands. By the way, someone who claims that he was badly injured saving the world wants to see you." Count Dawn referred to Commander I, who got a leg injury at the hospital.
At the hospital, Commander I sneezed.
"Count Dawn must be talking about me behind my back!" He complained.
"I understand."
"Guess we'll give him some 'Get Well' gifts along the way." Daisuke said.
"One more thing. Daisuke, is your hand okay?" Count Dawn asked.
"Yep." He looked at his hand, "It's recovered, but the doctor said I need to let it rest for the time being, so it's best that I don't Buddyfight for the while."
"I see. Then you better take good care of it."
"Understood."
At the plaza. Kyoya is giving an interview on the news.
"Many people have witnessed Gaen Financial Group's helicopter. Master Kyoya, do you deny that you were the one who saved the world from Yamigedo?" Ms. Hanana asked for his opinion.
"There's no way that I could do such a thing." He said as she felt complimented by his words.
"Our guest today is our mysterious savior, Master Kyoya Gaen, whose modesty is truly wonderful!"
"That darned Kyoya. He knows Gao's the one who saved the day!" Drum complained.
"I told you, all I did was play Buddyfight." Gao said as he leaves the plaza.
At the Mikado Residence...
"Gao! Your friend is here!" Suzumi said as Gao and Drum were surprised to see who it was.
"I've come to fulfill our promise." It was Bolt with his Core Gadget by his side.
"Promise?" Gao asked as he was confused.
"Hey, don't tell me you forgot? You promised you'd fight me! We're still at one win and one loss each. I've come to settle things once and for all!" He said as he brought out his deck as Gao's surprised and smiled.
"It'd be my pleasure!" Gao happily accepted it.
At the CASTLE Fighting Stage.
"We're coming to you live from CASTLE's Fighting Stage. Gao Mikado versus Ikazuchi... I mean, Bolt Fuchigami! In a fight to end all fights!" Paruko announced. Everyone starts to watch the match, "From what I've heard, the two are currently tied at 99 wins and 99 losses!"
"I'll be the one to hit 100 wins first!" Bolt said.
"No way! It'll be me! I'll win 100 times first!" Gao argued. But then Bolt's Core Gadget growled.
"We're going to win for sure!" Drum said as he was in his Crimson Battler form again.
"Buddyfight!"
"Raise the Flag!"
"Here we go, Drum!"
"Sure thing, partner!" Drum said.
In later time, at Dragon World...
"My son, the day shall come when you will take my place and lead Armordragon Army of the Drum Clan. And someday, form an alliance with the Dragonic Fighter clan. I know you have gained some useful knowledge. But you still have much to learn!" Drum who grew older, speaks to his son just like what his father say to him.
"Huh?"
"You must leave Dragon World for a planet called Earth, and become Buddies with a person there. And the human who becomes your Buddy will not be flawless."
"What?"
"Once, I was partners with a human Buddy as well. His name was Gao Mikado! He was a truly unconventional human." He remembered the time when he was searching for a human to be his Buddy.
Earlier time, Drum is prepared to say goodbye to Gao.
"Well, see ya, Gao!" Drum said.
"Yeah! You'd better become the best clan leader ever! And be sure to work together with Ryuusei's clan!" Gao said.
"And you'd better become the best at Buddyfighting!"
"Yeah! I could never quit Buddyfighting!" They fistbumped as they made their goodbyes.
At Daisuke's apartment, Daisuke watches the sky.
"Hey." Ryuuga said as Daisuke noticed.
"Hey, Ryuuga."
"Watching the sky as usual?"
"I do always enjoy the view. Heard Drum went back to Dragon World to become a Clan Leader."
"Yeah, I heard."
"What are you gonna do?"
"Hm?"
"Your clan needs a master you know. You should..."
"What are you talking about? I'm staying here with you!"
"Huh?"
"I'm not a Dragonic Fighter anymore. I'm a Galactic Fighter. I'm now in Star Dragon World! There's no need for me to go."
"But what about your clan?"
"Already took care of that. I was thinking of letting my apprentice to take my place."
"Hm? You mean..."
"Yep! I'm letting Daigo to become the next leader for the Dragonic Fighters. Who knows? Maybe he'll become a Dragonic Master too someday."
"Guess you're right. I have to admit, it's good to see that you're staying here."
"Yeah. Me too, Buddy."
The sound of firecrackers sparked as the steam clears up, revealing a banner for congratulations on it.
"Hey, everybody! This is the end of this story! Congrats to everyone for supporting us!"
"Yeah! Thanks for helping us continue everyone!" Ryuusei said as they applauded.
