Chapter 1: Entering the Demon Dragon, Batzz

After the WBC Cup has ended, time went by as the next Buddyfight begins.

Many years ago, in Dragon World... Thunder rages from the dark sky as it strikes on the village. Many were in flames as the civilians were trying to run away from a terrifying monster. It was a huge black dragon, wearing a black armor with thunder lining and a red cape, has red hair, demon horns, and has a gauntlet that is shaped of a golden dragon head, his face has an x-shaped scar on it. He has somehow got onto a rampage as thunder strucks around him and roars. Many dragons are trying to defend themselves and many are trying to fight the monster alongside them are the members of the Dragonic clan, came to join forces. But then the monster roars as black thunder surrounds him as he jumps and spins around in a dark tornado. Within the tornado, rises out a long black lance as it struck down on the village as a path of flames forms an X on Dragon World with a flames gushing out from where the lance hits.

Many years later, at the present time, at the shopping district, a certain red-headed boy was running through the shopping district.

"Oh man! I'm going to be late again!" He said with a piece of toast in his mouth. Along the way, three kids were frighten because two older kids were bullying them to see the card, one of the little kids have.

"Heh. Nice card you got there, kid." One of them said.

"Yeah. Too good for a wimp like you." Another said. Then the red-headed kid managed to swallow the toast while running.

"Hand it over already." He said as he snatched the card off the little boy's hand.

"Give it back!" The little one said. Then the red-headed kid stopped as he saw the problem.

"Oh ho! Oh yeah!" The older kid said as he was amazed at the card he snatched.

"Let me have a look at that!" The other said as the red-headed kid grabbed the older kid's arm as he looked at the card and chuckled.

"Oh sweet! That's a super cool great card!" He complimented, "So who's it is?! Is it yours?!" He asked excitedly as the older kid got confused.

"No, it's mine! He stole it!" One of the little kids explained.

"You don't say..." He said as he grabbed his hand tightly as it hurts him and took the card off of the older kid's hand, "Take good care of it, alright?" He said as he returned to the kids.

"Thank you so much!" He thanked happily.

"Who do you think you are?!" The older kid asked angrily, "You ain't getting away with this, you punk!" He yelled.

"If I were you two, I take a hike." He recommended.

"Attitude adjustment time." The older kid said as he cracks his knuckles, "Let's get him, bro!"

"Go time!" The other said.

"Yeah, listen. I don't really do street fights, see?" He chuckled while rubbing his head behind and walks.

"Are you for real?!" He asked so surprisingly as they strike a punch at him but he quickly evaded it and went through them and push them down to the ground.

"Check it out!" The little boy said as he and his friends were amazed for his moves.

"6th grader. Aibo Academy's elementary division, Gao Mikado! The Mighty Sun Fighter!" Gao introduced himself. The kids started to admire him as the two older kids ran off, "You guys! Come on, stop it!" He said as he got flattered but then he realized something, "Oh no!" He noticed that he's still late.

At the Aibo Academy, the bell rung as class has begun.

"I'm seriously late for school!" Gao yelled.

Gao quickly leave the alley as he ran off in the flash. Then the three kids come out of the alley.

"So long, Mighty Sun Fighter! Thanks for everything! We totally owe you one!" The kids said as they waved goodbye. Meanwhile, near the alley, a mysterious man wearing a black overcoat, with a hat, black shades, and a mask covering his mouth, watches Gao after he leaves.

Back at Aibo Academy, the lecture has begun.

"This is the denominator and this is numerator." Gao's old teacher give his lecture of math on the board, "If these divide evenly into each other..." As he speaks, Gao slowly slide opened the door as he crawls through the class, "You'll get an integer. When it divide unevenly, you get a fraction." A girl student, who sat next to Noboru, saw Gao as he gave her a sign to shush. But then a hand appeared as it touched onto Gao's ankle as he got surprised and the students hear him. Gao turned but noticed no one's there but his shoe, "Mr. Mikado. Thanks for joining us." He said after seeing Gao on the floor. Then Gao quickly stand up.

"Sir! Someone just tried to grab my foot!" Gao explained.

"You're as lively as ever, I see." He said, "Now then, solve this equation. Answer please!" He gave a wink as Gao got surprised.

"What?! Huh?! Um... well... I... uh..." He got nervous as he answered, "I... have no idea!" He replied as the classroom laughed.

"That's why you should be on time!" He advised as Gao sweatdropped, "Alright class, now let's all settle down please!" Then Gao went to take his seat.

"Aw man." He said disappointingly.

"Having a tough day, Gao?" Noboru asked sarcastically, "Maybe you would be off easy if Daisuke would still come back as a teacher again."

"Alright already! But man, why does he have to leave again?" Gao said as he was aware, "Huh...I wonder what..." He looked at the door, "Grabbed my leg..." Outside the classroom, the same man who saw Gao, was near the classroom.

After school, the bell rung. At the rooftop, Gao and his friends are at the benches as they discussed about Gao's new deck.

"Thunder Knights, Vice Captain, Golden Halberd, huh?" Gao asked, "Yeah, now that sounds cool!"

"As a deck builder, I recommend it, bro. If you want to premo defense card, this is it." Baku recommended as he showed the card.

"With this card's move to the center position, it immediately destroys one enemy monster!" Kuguru explained.

"Way cool! In other words, I can count on this one card's do the work of two defense cards!" Gao said.

"Yeah! And then you'll have a stronger deck, Gao!" Haruka said.

"The only thing you need now is a Buddy." Baku said.

"Baku's right. You can't built a perfect deck without a Buddy." Kuguru said disappointingly.

"Yeah. Not after his old Buddy left." Haruka said but then realized something, "Sorry, I said that, Gao."

"It's okay, Haruka! Besides, I'll draw a Buddy rare for sure!" Gao said for his expectations, "You'll see. I'll be the greatest Buddy of all times!" He said with confidence.

"Yeah! In your dreams!" Noboru said as he came by, "No matter who you get, he won't be strong enough to beat me."

"You won't be strong enough." Gao said.

"I'm the great Noboru Kodo, the strongest Buddyfighter anywhere, anytime!" Noboru boasted.

"Huh?" Gao was confused.

"I could crush you easily." Noboru said as he held out his Core Deck, "No sweat!"

"Alright!" Gao said angrily as he pull out his Core Deck, "Then let's Buddyfight! Right now!" They glared at each other.

"I thought you never asked!"

"H-Hey! You two, calm down!" Haruka said.

"It's okay, Haruka, they're always like this, you know." Kuguru said.

"But..." Haruka said. Then the mysterious man walked by as he was coming towards them.

"Who's the dude in the mask?" Baku asked as he, Kuguru, and Haruka noticed. Then the mysterious man snickered.

"Ah! He snickered!" Haruka said as she got scared and hides behind Kuguru.

"Baku! Do something!" Kuguru said.

"Ah no! This is just the job for the Mighty Sun Fighter!" Baku said as he, Kuguru and Haruka pushed Gao to the man for protection. Then Gao got surprised.

"Please save us!" Haruka said as Gao and the man makes their stances. But then man grabbed his overcoat as he removes it.

"Da Da Dum!" He removes it as he reveals as small monster who looks like a panda cub but wearing a purple shirt, yellow vest and a red, he carries a small scabbard that looks like a Popsicle ice cream, "Congratulation! Ladies and Gent!" They got surprised as they were confused of what's going on.

"And just what are you supposed to be? A Panda?" Noboru assumed as he looked at the monster as the monster got surprised by Noboru's comment. Then Noboru started to snickered, "It's totally a panda!" He laughed as the monster stares at Noboru's T-shirt.

"I'm not a Panda! No Kitten boy's going to insult me!" He said angrily.

"Who are you calling a 'Kitten'?!" Noboru asked as he starts to get angry.

"You're wearing a kitten shirt."

"This is clearly a tiger!" Noboru yelled. Then everyone realized of what they forgot about.

"Kitten shirt aside. Tell us. Who are you?" Gao asked.

"I've come all the way from Dragon World to be here today! My name is Saint Holy Sword Dragon, kids!" He introduced himself. But they gave no reaction to that name.

"Wait. A Saint?" Baku asked

"Holy, you say?" Kuguru asked.

"Sword Dragon?" Haruka asked.

"Is that really?" Gao asked as Noboru laughed loudly.

"More like a baby dragon cub! What are you gonna do? Hit me with your rattle?!" Noboru said as Saint Holy Sword Dragon got angry as he took out his small popsicle blade from his scabbard as he was in a yellow aura and hits Noboru, "Ow! Stop smacking me with that ice pop stick!"

"This is my Holy Sword!" He said as he placed it back in his scabbard, "I may be small, but I'm a noble Saint Holy Sword Dragon, through and through!" He took out a pole with a ball with polkas on a string, "And now, it's time for a special news update." He pulled the string, opening up the ball, revealing the banner that said, 'Congratulations, Dragon World Representative, Lord Gao Mikado.', "Announcing our very own Dragon World Representative, Gao Mikado! Who's been selected" He announced.

"Dragon World's representative?!" Baku asked as he was surprised.

"Wait! What are you talking about?!" Kuguru asked.

"Gao's a Dragon World Representative?!" Haruka asked.

"Hold on. How come you know about me?" Gao asked as he kneel to Saint Holy Sword Dragon.

"It's not just you, Gao. I also know about Baku Omori, Kuguru Uki, Haruka Masamune, and last but not least, Noboru Kodo of the Kitten Shirt." He explained the details.

"It is not a kitten!" Noboru complained.

"And with that said and done, soon the highly esteem and anticipated World Buddy Masters will be held!" He announced.

"Did you say 'World Buddy Master'?" Gao asked.

"Yes! In addition to my homeland, Dragon World, there are many other parallel worlds that will be taking part. Dungeon World, and Star Dragon World, of course, Darkness Dragon World, and Legend, Danger, Ancient, Hero, Magic, Katana, Champion, and a new World that no one has heard of, the World Buddy Masters Tournament invites Buddyfighter representing each World to compete with their Buddies. And our winner takes all the battling extraordinaire! And there's more than just pride and honor on the line."

"And so I've been chosen?!" Gao asked as he pointed at himself and got surprised.

"Rather than choosing a Buddyless loser like Gao, you should pick me as your representative." Noboru recommended himself.

"Oh, there's no need for that concern. As for Gao's Buddy, we're gonna go search for one right now!" He said.

"Go search for one?" Kuguru asked.

"But how?" Haruka asked.

"We're going to search it in Dragon World, of course! Where else?" He asked.

"Dragon World?!" Baku asked so surprisingly. Gao smirked.

"But that place will be crawling with Dragons." Noboru said, "Count me out. Who wanna go to such a dangerous place?" He asked.

"This guy does. Time to find my Buddy!" Gao said in motivation.

"What?!" Noboru asked so surprisingly.

"I like your spark, Gao." Saint Holy Sword Dragon said as he nodded and pulls out a card, "Well, what are we waiting for?" He toss it up to the sky, "Let's make it happen!" It released the portal.

"Here we go!" Gao said as he and his friends floated up near the portal.

"But I don't wanna-!" Noboru tried to complain as they went into the portal.

At the Dragon World, where the incident took place many years ago. Many dragons were flying around the site of where the path of the flames have shown. Then Gao and his friends have arrived on one of the broken paths. Gao landed on the edge as it starts to crack as he managed jumps off before it fell.

"Help, someone help!" Gao yelled as he tries to reach to the edge.

"Grab the edge!" Kuguru said as Gao managed to grab the edge on time.

"Aw, geez thanks for the help, you guys!" Gao said sarcastically.

"Um, here. Let me help." Haruka said as she lend a hand.

"Oh thanks, Haruka!" Gao said as he takes her hand. Then the dragons were flying around, were battling against each other.

"I can't believe it." Kuguru said as she watches the environment, "We're really in Dragon World."

"I said I didn't want to come here, Panda." Noboru said, "Send me back to Earth, now!" He demanded.

"No can do, Kitten Shirt!" He said, "We must find a new Buddy for Gao."

"For sure." Baku said.

"But..." Haruka said, "Which Dragon would be Gao's Buddy?" She asked.

"I don't know, but look at this terrain, it's very bizarre." Gao said as he looks at the terrain.

"Yeah. It almost looks like something gouch it out." Baku said.

"That was Demon Lord Dragon's doing." Saint Holy Sword Dragon explained.

"Demon Lord Dragon?" Gao wondered.

"An incredibility powerful dragon, who wields the power of lightning!" He explained the appearance of the Demon Lord Dragon, "Long ago, he went on a rampage and nearly destroy our beloved Dragon World, in just one night!"

"'Destroyed in one night'?" Noboru asked, "Stop telling fairy tales."

"It's the truth! Our great ancestors barely manage to capture the terrible Demon Lord Dragon in time!" He said as he pulls out his sword.

"It's gotta be a lie. Especially, the part about you having great ancestor, dude." Noboru said.

"IT IS NOT A LIE!" He yelled, "Dragon World is where they trapped that Demon Lord Dragon to begin with!" He show the monument of four dragon statues but one of them has the face broken off, he screamed, "Ah, it's Demon Lord Dragon, he's still gored to this very day!" Then Gao chuckled.

"Demon Lord Dragon..." He said as he smiled, "I would love to meet him." Then all of the sudden, the dragons were suddenly leaving.

"Wh-What's going on?" Haruka said as she got scared and cling to Kuguru.

"It's alright. But what's got them spook?" Kuguru asked.

"Oh terrific! What gives now?!" Saint Holy Sword Dragon said. Then the portal appeared as the creature is coming out, "What in the world is that?!" He asked so surprisingly. It revealed to be Yamigedo but with mechanical parts on it, he has drill claws as it destroys the pillars, wires and metal and bolt parts all over the body.

"Let me out! Get me out of here!" A deep voice said as it was coming from the monument.

"I don't like the looks of this." Noboru said after seeing the monster.

"I'm scared!" Haruka said.

"It's okay, Haruka. Don't be scared." Kuguru said.

"Hey, Gao. What is it?" Baku said as he noticed Gao, looking at a different view.

"Is it...?" Gao said as he jumps down to check the monument.

"Hey, Gao!" Noboru yelled but Gao jumped anyway, "Where are you going?!" Gao continues to head down.

"Let me out of here! Now!" The voice yelled as Gao hurried, "Undo... the seal!" Gao finally managed to reach in front of the monument, "Release me from this prison!" Then Gao walked slowly as he stopped and then the card pack reveals itself with 'seal' on it.

"I'll undo the seal." Gao said as he reached to the seal. Then all of the sudden, his friends suddenly transported behind him.

"No, wait! Open that, then the Demon Lord Dragon will resurrect!" Saint Holy Sword Dragon said.

"But the voice..." Gao said.

"What voice?" Baku asked.

"I can't hear a thing." Noboru said.

"Me neither." Haruka said as she shook her head.

"It must be your imagination!" Noboru said.

"No. I just know I heard something." Gao said.

"Demon Lord Dragon?!" Kuguru assumed.

"What did you say?!" Saint Holy Sword Dragon asked so surprisingly as Gao grabs the seal as it starts to glow, "You mustn't do that! The moment you remove that seal, you and Demon Lord Dragon will be Buddies!" He explained as he cries out tears.

"Sounds good to me!" Gao said as he smiles, "Let's take a look!"

"Please don't! You mustn't!" He begged until it's too late. Gao tore the seal.

"Come on out!" He takes out the card, "Demon Lord Dragon!" Then the monument starts to shake as a gauntlet breaks out. Gao was amazed from what he is seeing as the Demon Lord Dragon revealed himself after he broke through the monument.

He came out as he was looking at Gao.

"This is the famous... Demon Lord Dragon." Gao said.

"Dah! It's a fibular! It's the end of Dragon World!" Saint Holy Sword Dragon said.

"Ah yeah." Gao said.

"Hey, you there! Are you the one that released me, kid?" The Demon Lord Dragon asked.

"My name's not kid! I'm Gao Mikado! The Mighty Sun Fighter!" Gao introduced himself.

"Sun Fighter!?" He laughed, "An insignificant pipsqueak like you?!" He asked.

"Yeah!" Gao said with confidence as the Demon Lord used his gauntlet to point at Gao.

"I am Barlbatz! Barlbatz Dragoroyale, the First!" He introduced himself as Yamigedo appeared through the gaps of the pillars.

"Oh no! It's coming back!" Haruka said.

"Gao!" Baku yelled. Then someone came by with Yamigedo.

He snickered, "I have come for you."He removed his hood as he was wearing a purple sleeveless jacket with green lining. It has a mark of a green star with two eyes. He has blonde hair with a black spot on the center of the hair, "Demon Lord Dragon.

"Oh really? You and what army?!" Barlbatz asked.

"You're going to come along with me." He said.

"That is not going to happen. I'm the most powerful dragon in the world! I don't take orders!" Barlbatz yelled as the yellow-haired boy took out his dark purple with dark purple lining Core deck.

"That so? Then I'll take you by force! If I have to!" He said as it made them surprised for what they discovered.

"Look! He's a Buddyfighter!" Gao said after seeing the Core Deck. Then Barlbatz laughed as he was engulf with his dark purple lighting around him.

"That's a good one. Come to me! I call you, Thunder Empire!" Barlbatz ordered as cards from the monument came out, as they formed together on Gao's hand.

"Those are cards!" Gao said as he was surprised.

"Show them to me." Baku requested.

"And me too!" Kuguru said.

"And me!" Haruka said.

"I never seen any of these cards before." Kuguru said after seeing the cards.

"And they're amazing!" Baku said, "All of these are incredibility strong card. Time to build a new deck!" He took out his card box as he begins building Gao's new deck, "I need this one! And these!" He laid out four spell cards, "And these ones too!" He laid out five items, "This is going to be one amazing deck, Gao!" He said as he's almost done.

"Great! You finished it!" Kuguru said.

"Baku's so amazingly fast!" Haruka said.

"Aw yeah! Now it's your job to put them to good use, bro." Baku said as he handed Gao his new deck.

"I won't let you down!" Gao said as he inserted his deck into his Core Deck, "Let's do this! Barlbatzz Drago Royale! Or rather... My Buddy, Barlbatzz!" Gao declared.

Then everyone was at the Fighting Stage that is somehow appeared as both players and their Buddies are in their positions, Gao's friends are on the side.

"Now rise before me! The mighty dragon of them all! Luminize! Demon Lord Dragon of Tempest!"

"The mechanical evil deity appears! Luminize! Great Fiend of Chaos!" His Core Gadget is a purple samurai gauntlet. Then the platform started to change as Gao's friends are noticing it. The platform descending them down as the left and right positions rises as Gao's platform slowly rises to the middle but the other fighter rises more.

"Time to Raise the Flag!"

"I'm with Dragon World!" Instead of the flag, it shows the emblem of Dragon World but on a shield like shape

"I'm with Katana World!" Like the Dragon World, it shows the emblem of Katana World but in bamboo square shape.

(G: 10/ Item: None/ G: 2: None/None/None)

(?: 10/ Item: None/ G: 2: None/None/None)

"First move is mine! Charge and Draw! I equip... Arc Dragon Sword!" Gao equips a sword with a yellow handle and the blade has a red x on the center of the blade. Gao then runs off the platform as he runs through the stage of making his attack. He jumps up as his Sword is charged with electricity and began to slash at his opponent, inflicting 2 damage. Barlbatzz watches Gao as he was beginning to think.

"It's my turn!" His opponent said, "Draw! Charge and Draw! I call to the center, Blood Knight, Kimensai! To the left and the right, I call Rampage, Chizomegumo!" He called out his monsters, "The evil deity who devoured the stars! Chaos Yamigedo!" He paid two gauge, "I now Buddycall him to the center!" He Buddycalled as Yamigedo roars.

"Chaos Yamigedo?!" Baku asked as he was so surprised.

"He looks so strong!" Saint Holy Sword said.

"With the Buddy Gift, I regain one life!" He said as he regained one life and Chao Yamigedo devoured Kimensai, "Bringing my total up to nine! Both Chizomegumo, attack the fighter now!" He commanded as both of them attacks Gao, inflicting 4 damage together. Saint Holy Sword was getting concerned.

"Come on! Doesn't he have any defense spells?!" Noboru complained. Gao looked at his hand as he has one monster and two spells in his hand.

"Do you plan on using any of those?" Barlbatzz asked.

"You bet! But this way, I can really bring out your full power!" Gao said.

"Kid! You'll take some lethal damage long before you get a chance to do that!"

"I don't mind." Gao turned to his Buddy, "I'll take anything!" He said with confidence, "If it's for my Buddy's sake."

"Oh, for your Buddy's sake?" He asked with a glare in his eyes, "Ha! You certainly are an odd one. Very well. Do as you like." He gave it in. Then the opponent snickered.

"Now this is amusing. Tormenting someone who doesn't put up a fight! Get him, Chaos Yamigedo!" He ordered his Buddy as it begins to attack, inflicting two damage to Gao, "This guy has Double Attack!" Then his Buddy makes his second attack as it used his mouth to crush Gao, inflicting another 2 damage.

"Oh no, Gao!" Haruka said.

"He's got 2 life left." Noboru said, 'This does not look good."

"Are you telling me that the Dragon World Representative is gonna lose?! Even the World Buddy Master hasn't even started?!" Saint Holy Sword said as he got overreacted.

"Don't worry! We're talking about Gao here!" Kuguru said.

"That's right!" Haruka nodded, "Gao won't lose that easily!"

"Yep! That's right!" Baku agreed.

"Here I go!" Gao pulled his lever as it turned sideways, "My turn! Draw! Charge and... Draw!" The card that Gao drew is his new Impact card.

"If you use that card, you can win! But be warned, kid, you might not survive that much power!" Barlbatzz advised.

"I might... not survive?" Gao asked as he was in shock.

"Regardless, it's none of my business what happens to you, kid. I'll defeat them on my own with my power! I'll carve into both of their heart until they scream for mercy!" He said as Gao snickered.

"I like you, Batzz. I've chosen you as my Buddy!" Gao said as Batzz is confused.

"Huh?"

"We're officially buddies! We are fighting as one! That's why, I put my faith... in my deck! And of course, in you!" Gao said to his Buddy.

"Hmph!"

"I swear I'm gonna win this Buddyfight! I call Raid Officer, Delta!" He call out a monster on the left, it was a light green dragon, wearing a black armor with gold lining. He has a green triangle with a gold lining on its chest, he has two spear-headed weapons in his hands and wears a green scarf, "I Buddycall Demon Lord Dragon, Batzz to the right!" He paid one gauge as he Buddycalled and regained one life. Then the left platform descended down, "When I have four life or less, Batzz's gets another 3000 power!" Batzz then jumps to the left platform, "For a total of 12000!" Batzz roared, "And he gets Triple Attack!"

"So this was Gao's plan all along!" Noboru said after realizing what he saw. And Saint Holy Sword was amazed, "That's why he didn't use those defense spells earlier!" Gao laughed.

"A Triple Attack? Big deal! I got an answer for you, chump!" His opponent said.

"Delta! Attack Chaos Yamigedo, go!" Gao commanded Delta.

"Roger. Take this! Impact Delta Slash!" Delta said as he makes his attack.

"I cast! Demon Way, Noroihikagami!" The opponent cast a big demon mirror as Delta strikes at it, but as the mirror breaks, "I destroy Delta!" Delta is destroyed along with it.

"I'm counting on you!" Gao said to Batzz, "Attack Chaos Yamigedo!"

"Don't. Order. Me. Around!" Batzz complained as Chaos Yamigedo is going to attack but then Batzz swings his gauntlet as he strikes a punch at it. Then he jumps after it while its flying, he grabs it tail and swings it around as he slams it to the ground hard, then Batzz jumps up and strikes its face, thus destroying it.

"Revive with Soulguard!" The opponent said as it came back due to Soulguard, "And Counterattack!" Then it attacks Batzz. It surprised Gao's friends but Baku and Kuguru didn't reacted. Then a black lightning shrouded as Batzz somehow carried Chaos Yamigedo, stopping the attack, "How did he survived?!" He was surprised.

"During my turn, Batzz can't be destroyed, no matter what!" Gao explained.

"You really thought... weaklings like you could defeat me?!" Batzz said as he throws Yamigedo down to the ground as it was destroyed again.

"Oh wow! He's just too amazing!" Saint Holy Sword said as he was starting to admired Batzz.

"You're next! You little pest!" Batzz said as he strikes his attack at the opponent as he inflicted 2 damage.

"Demon Lord Dragon Batzz is the best!"

"And I'll follow up!" Gao said as he makes his attack and slashed his opponent, inflicting 2 damage.

"You're in my next turn! You'll face complete and utter annihilation and death! You have no other options!" His opponent said.

"Hold on! My turn isn't over just yet!" Gao said as he put his foot down as the ground cracks, "Alright! Final Phase!" He activates it as he was engulf in purple aura.

"Remember. The moment you use that card, every last ounce of my power will flow straight into your body!" Batzz issued a warning, "Whether or not you can use it properly, it's on you." He jumps as the dark tornado engulfs him, "If it turns out you can't handle my power, it's over." He transformed to the spear that happened in Dragon World many years ago as it descended down to Gao.

"I'll take that chance!" Gao said as he grabs hold of the end of the lance, "I'll prove myself!" He held it with his might as it tears off the bandages from his hand. Then the darkness descends down to Gao as it covers his body.

"What's going on?! What's happening to him?!" Kuguru asked as they were surprised of what they saw.

"Is he changing?!" Haruka asked.

"Yes! Because he's completely overwhelmed by Demon Lord Dragon's power!" Saint Holy Sword explained.

In the mind of Gao, Gao was unconscious as he was in a dark armored form with Batzz's gauntlet.

"Gao!" Baku yelled in the echoed voice in Gao's mind.

"Don't tell me...' Noboru said in echoed, "He can't be dead."

"No... He can't!" Haruka said in echoed.

"But it's a very strong possibility.

"I'm going..." Gao said as he regained his mind, "To win!"

"I am..." The sun from his jacket shines as it clears half of his armor, "I am! The Mighty Sun Fighter!" He jumps up, lifting the spear, "I cast!" In space, he lifted the lance as he lands on it and runs across. He leaps as the lance twist and Gao grabs the part of the spear, "Brace yourself for the Impact!" He throws as he dashes down, "Thunder Lance! X-Tempest! Buster!" Gao's lance struck his opponent as he pushes it with force as it shows the earth, with the flaming x with the flame gushing out on the center. It inflicted 5 damage as the game ended.

(G: 2/ Item: Arc Dragon Sword/ G: 0: None/None/Batzz)

(?: 0/ Item: None/ G: 1: Chizomegumo/None/Chizomegumo)

The opponent got frustrated for his loss as he pull out his card, opening up a portal as he escapes. As the game ended, Gao's half armor disappeared as he was back to normal.

"Right. Thank you very much!" Gao said. But then he felt the pain in his arm after using the Impact.

"Hey, Gao!" Baku said as the Fighting Stage went back to normal as they came running to him.

"Are you okay?" Noboru asked after seeing Gao's hurt.

"Yeah, guys." Gao said.

"Does it hurt?" Haruka asked.

"Don't worry about it. I'm fine." Gao said.

"Glad you didn't invite the big one." Saint Holy Sword said.

"Man, you sure pick the dangerous... No." Noboru said as he was trying to think of a better explanation, "Um. A seriously tough monster for your Buddy." He said after seeing Batzz still around.

"Something's special about that kid." Batzz wondered.

At the unknown base in a hidden location...

"So Demon Lord Dragon has a Buddy now?" A mysterious man said after his accomplice, Gao's opponent appeared to inform in. The young man has a long silver hair with blue lining on both sides, he has blue diamond mark on the corners of his forehead, his has grey eyes and yellow cornea, he wears a brown and grey suit with white grieves, pointed shoulder pads, and wears grey gauntlet with brown gloves.

"Yes, sir. I fail to capture him because of this, um..." He tried to explain.

"I'm growing tired of your excuses, Sakate."

"Yes, I couldn't be sorrier, sir." Sakate apologized.

"In other words, you proved inadequate. That's all." He said the results.

"Um..." Sakate was about to say as Chaos Yamigedo was struck by black lasers as it was destroyed. Sakate got surprised, "Master Wisdom!" He kneel for forgiveness.

"Our objective is complete and unequivalent peace. We will upgrade this very world at whatever the cost." Wisdom said his objective.

Later, at night, at the Mikado Residence.

"You will never guess what happened to me today!" Gao said as he quickly opens the door after rushing home, "I got a new Buddy!" He spread the good news to his family as they came out of the living room. They got surprised as Batzz revealed himself, "Check it out! This is him! Say hi to Batzz!" Gao introduced Batzz to his family, however, he is in his chibi size form as he was a grey dragon, wearing a red cape similar to his true form, but he has x scars on his forehead and his belly, and he has two demon horns on his head.

"Uh..." Batzz said after the introduction. And Gao's family showed a lack of reaction after seeing Batzz in the small, "Why am I being deformed?!" He asked as he was surprised of his form, "Into a feeble size like this?!" Gao scratched his nose as he chuckled. Then Batzz gets enraged with lightning, "Unacceptable!" He yelled as he electroshocks the whole house, "Someone's going to pay for this!"

"Welcome everyone to the next Corner Time for this chapter, or perhaps the story for the Cosmic Alliance. Sorry, that there won't be any cards shown this time but if you have some ideas, I like to see what Ryuusei would be become as a Cosmic Fighter with an Overturn. Anyways, this chapter is done. For the next chapter it will be about Gaito going against Gao with Abygale against Batzz. Let's see who wins. Til then bye for now!"

"Wait! Don't I get to say anything?" Ryuusei asked.

"Nah, we're out of time." Daisuke shook his head.

"But-!"

"Bye!" He waved goodbye as Ryuusei tried to say but the screen faded black.
