You are weird little bird, Crump. [thinking] And I'm in the mood for a barbecue. [draws] What's this? Maha Vailo? No, he's not powerful enough! There's no way he'll beat Flying Penguin!
Téa, don't give up so fast. He has a secret skill that can help you.
Huh? What kind of a skill? Hold on, I remember this! Yugi once told me about this card.
[Flashback to that time]
YYugi
You wanna know which card is most like me?
Wait, I know. Well, I think I know. It's that purple guy with the big hat, right?
YYugi
Uh, big hat? Oh, you mean my Dark Magician card. Well, even though it's pretty great, I don't think it's the card that's most like me. Okay. Ah. This is the one! Pretty cool, right?
YYugi
He may not be as strong as the Dark Magician, well. not when you first look at him anyway. But if you look closer, you'll see a hidden power deep inside.
[Flashback ends]
[thinking] Of course! It's hidden strength! [speaking] I'm not done yet! Now, I summon Maha Vailo in attack mode!
Wait, I'm not done! Check this out! I activate Magic Formula, raising my monster's attack points by 500!
You must've failed all of your math forces, kid, because it's still too short on attack points to defeat my Flying Penguin!
I guess you don't know about Maha Vailo's hidden power. He gets 500 extra attack points for each one of my magic cards!
Oh, it's fair! Go, Maha Vailo! Attack his Flying Penguin with Sacred Lightning! Add this up, Crump! Extra crispy fried penguin, anyone?
So much for the Big Five. I should never have hired those corporate clowns!
YYugi
[on virtual screen] Excellent dueling, Téa!
[on virtual screen] Thanks, Yugi.
How could they be out-dueled by these two in a virtual world where I make all the rules? If you want something done right, you have to do it yourself, so perhaps it's time for me to step in. I'll make sure they never leave this place!
On behalf of myself and the Big Five, I want to offer your our most sincere apologies, Noah.
There's nothing to explain! You five failed me for the last time! Now you're all fired!
Your slick lawyer talk won't get you out of this one, Johnson, so don't even try it. So far your partners Gansley and Crump each suffered an embarrassing defeat. So why should I believe the rest of you won't fail? I have no choice, Johnson. I must dispose of you all!
Please, Noah! Don't do it! We've analyzed our attack patterns and we come up with a solid dueling strategy that is guaranteed to bring success, sir! Understand our position. The Big Five are desperate to defeat these brats. It's the only way we can take over their bodies and leave the cyber world behind! We can't let them win!
Very well. I'll give you a chance to redeem yourself. Don't let me down.
No. 'Cause if they fail me again, he will be the sorry one. Their failures are a reflection of me. And I can't allow Yugi and his friends to make me look like a failure.
[as Joey activates his Gamble trap card; to Yugi] Gamble?
YYugi
Yep. It's a risky card, Téa, but if it works, it can help Joey turn this entire duel around, and it starts with a coin.
And what exactly is so risky about it, Yugi?
YYugi
Well, Joey flips a coin in the air, then he calls heads or tails, and if he's right, he gets to draw five cards, but if he's wrong, Joey's next turn gets skipped and he can't afford to let that happen. It could cost him the entire duel!
He can take all the risks he wants, because in my virtual courtroom, I control everything!
YYugi
[thinking] There's something fishy about this Johnson guy. It seems like more than just bad luck that's holding Joey down.
Yes, Yugi. I agree… Much more. Johnson is controlling the outcome of Joey's moves. I've been sensing it since the beginning of this duel. This judge is cheating.
YYugi
I knew it! We've got to step in, or Joey's mind will be trapped here!
I'm not through yet! I still got this little number left! My Arduous Decision magic card!
YYugi
Talk about risk! If this doesn't work, he could lose the entire duel to Johnson right now, Téa!
YYugi
Playing that card allows Joey to draw two more cards from his deck and that's when things get tough! 'Cause then Johnson has to pick one of those two cards. If it's a monster, Joey can summon it. But if he chooses a magic or trap card, it goes to the graveyard and Joey's turn is over!
[draws Goblin Attack Force and Shield and Sword] Well, your choice! If you haven't figured it out yet, the outcome of this entire duel depends on this one move, and with Noah watching, you can't cheat, which means our fate will be decided by chance!
[thinking] As Joey and Yugi would say, "I have to trust my cards."
Serenity, you already know everything you need to in order to beat this guy!
Right! [thinking] I just have to remember everything Tristan taught me that day… [Flashback to her and Tristan's Duel Monsters strategy talk on the train] So I have to sacrifice my weak monster to summon a stronger one! Well… That means if I want to summon the strong monster in my hand, I have to get rid of my weaker Lady Panther, first! Maybe this game isn't so tough after all! So here goes… [speaking] I sacrifice my Lady Panther so I can summon Marie the Fallen One! Good!
[thinking] I hope Serenity's getting the hang of this, 'cause if she messes this up now, Nezbitt will win the duel in his next turn!
[thinking] I've got the monsters I want… Now I need that Polymerization card so I can fuse them together!
GWGoddess with the Third Eye
Serenity.
GWGoddess with the Third Eye
Fear not, Serenity. As your Deck Master, I carry with me a very special ability. The power of fusion. I have the ability to combine two or more of your monsters together without the need for a Polymerization card. But, you must discard one magic card in order to activate my ability.
Okay, now feast your eyes on this little number, Nezbitt! First I'll dispose of this magic card, so then I can activate the special ability of my Deck Master!
GWGoddess with the Third Eye
Fusion vision…go!
Goddess with the Third Eye, fuse together Marie the Fallen One and The Forgiving Maiden to form… St. Joan!
Impressive. But I'm afraid your monster isn't powerful enough to take me on. [Tristan's Command Angel glows, raising St. Joan's attack points by 400] What's going on? This can't be!
Awesome! Command Angel's special power kicked in! It raised the strength of every fairy monster on the field, including St. Joan!
Thanks to Tristan's monster card, we can still do this!
Now her St. Joan has 3200 attack points.
YYugi
Yeah, but his Perfect Machine King still has more points. St. Joan needs another power boost!
[thinking] Leichter thinks he has me backed into a corner. But that old fool is in for quite a surprise! [speaking] My move! [draws] Oh, well… it looks like there's bad weather ahead! 'Cause I activate this-- my Heavy Storm magic card! Time for my storm to blow away all of your magic and trap cards, Leichter! Which means you're done powering up your Life Points!
As your stepfather's right hand man, I learned to anticipate his every move. And that's exactly what I've just done to you! For I activate Imperial Order!
Oh, yes, Mr. Kaiba! For a mere 700 Life Points per turn, this card cancels out all your magic cards. And you know what that means, don't you? Now you can't use any trap or magic cards for the duration of the duel!
Oh, man! Talk about not playing with a full deck.
You seem a little stunned to me, Mr. Kaiba.
KKaiba
How can I stop a weapon that's… up there?!
You can't! Orbiting the Earth at an altitude of 240 miles, my Satellite Cannon is virtually unreachable!
I never heard of a Duel Monster that can attack from outer space!
Satellite Cannon is so high above the Earth's atmosphere that it's shielded from the attack of almost every monster!
KKaiba
Almost?! How do you know I don't have a monster in my deck that can reach it, Leichter?!
Trust me, Mr. Kaiba. By the time you summon a monster with the ability to attack my Satellite, it will be too powerful to destroy! That's because it gain 1,000 attack points with each turn! At last, the mighty Seto Kaiba is about to lose everything that he has! And it serves you right, after destroying your own stepfather and betraying the Big Five! Now it's time you paid the price for using others to get what you want! Even your own brother!
YYugi
What's he talking about?
No way! Seto and I are a team!
Not all the time. Mokuba, it's time you learned the harsh truth about your brother. Listen to what Leichter has to say.
You'll stop at nothing to get what you want, Mr. Kaiba, even if it means deceiving those most loyal to you. Your treachery began when your stepfather, Gozaburo, gave you $10,000,000 to test your business skills. When you increased the cash by threatening a smaller company, he was impressed with your abilities and your cruelty. But that wasn't good enough for you, was it? You wanted more.
He's my latest acquisition. His name is Seto and he and his brother Will be coming to live with us. He's extremely intelligent. You could learn a lot from him! And that's my plan... Seto will be here to constantly challenge you. My hope is that having him around the house Will motivate you to improve your studies. After all, if I'm going to hand KaibaCorp over to you someday, Noah, You'll have to prove to me that you have the intellect It takes to run a company of this magnitude.
All right. You won't be disappointed father.
[Tea shock gasps]
[shocked] What did he say!?
[looks back up] Why don't you worried about him instead.
[They spot up at the Fake Tristan]:
YYugi
Look guys, up there!
That's not Tristan, remember? [as Seto Kaiba leaves off alone to find Mokuba himself]
It's the techno geek of the Big Five, Nezbitt, even though he kicked his nerdy butt in that duel, he still took Tristan's body!
[Gansley laughs]
Today's special is-- five for one!
Our combined force will destroy you!
[The Big Five's Deck Masters appear]
They're all using Tristan's body!
Listen, Yugi! There's only one way we'll return your friend.
[laughs] But believe me, Junior, the odds are in our favor!
Hey, that's Crump! Sicko!
YYugi
All right! Tell us what we have to do to get Tristan back from your control!
Why duel us! Win, and he's yours!
Hold on! What's this about returning the body? We never discussed that! I'm the one who won this body and I won't give it up!
Nezbitt, it belongs to all of us now, and this was a group decision!
[chuckles] I can't believe you two are actually arguing as if we're going to keep our word.
[Pharaoh's spirit takes over]
Let's do this… for Tristan!
Hold it right there! Your man's a little off if you get in my drift. Five on one's are even, so count me in!
Yeah. No question. The two of us are a team, Yugi. Now, let's waste these five suits!
Yes, and together, we'll save Tristan.
What did you do to them!?
I always thought they were hardheaded. So I’ve turned them into a living sculpture. They’re so close yet they’ll never reach one another. How tragic.
YYugi
They're statues! It can't be!
[His anger allows the spirit of the Pharaoh to take over]
Noah! You think this proves you're the best!? I think it shows your father that you're a coward!
What are you talking about, Yugi? I defeated Seto in this duel fair and square!
Guess again, Noah! You think kidnapping Mokuba and using him as a shield is fair?!
I think you're guilty of the same foul play you once scolded the Big Five for! Something you said your father would never allow! Kaiba could've easily defeated you, Noah! But he chose the safety of his little brother over his victory. And that makes Kaiba a stronger person than you will ever be! All you've proven here today is that you're a weak little boy who needs to cheat to get his way. And as far as I'm concerned, you didn't win this duel! But I have a proposition for you. Kaiba has 400 Life Points left! Let me take his place, so we can finish this duel fair and square!
That could be the most foolish thing I've ever heard!
Does that mean you accept or are you afraid I'll defeat you and prove once and for all… That you are weak!
I’d be crazy not to accept!
Yugi! Don't be a doofus! He's got seven thousand life points to your measly four hundred!
Be careful, Joey's right for a change!
Once I defeat you, Yugi, I'll turn every one of you into stone!
I think we need a little privacy, don't you?
As I was saying, I'll turn all but one of you into stone! After all I need a body to escape in!
And If you lose you'll set us all free! So in the name of Seto Kaiba and Mokuba, let's duel now!
With pleasure, Yugi! And may the best duelist win!
And when I do, you and your friends will be prisoners of my world forever!
That's what happens when you challenge someone who's superior to youin every way.
I'll show you who's superior by taking over your body, Seto!
Wait! What about our agreement?
Sorry, but the agreement's off!
[?]
[?]
YYugi
Hurry! This place is gonna shut down any second!
Noah may have been a spoiled brat when we met him, But he turned out to be all right.
Do you think his mind was deleted When the computer was destroyed?
YYugi
Knowing him, he saved his mind on a back-up file.
yeah, I bet he'll be back.
Me, too. See you around, Noah!
KKaiba
All right! That little detour Was a complete waste of my time and effort. So, let's move on And pretend that nonsense never happened. It's time for us to continue the battle city finals. Set us back on course... To Kaiba-Corp Island.
