02x31 - Where the Truth Lies

[bunniefuu]

"Yuzu is alive!"

Believing that was what Sora was trying to tell me,

I shook off my hesitation and focused on my Duel with Shinji.

But along with Shinji inciting the City's Commons,

and his rage against Tops...

I was driven into a corner.

It was that moment...

I get it!

That's what you wanted?

Lend me your power again, Tuning Magician!

Synchro Summon!

Level !

Enlightenment Paladin!

Unbelievable, Yuya has gone with a Synchro Summon!

The D-Wheel.

By using the new Duel Disk technology brought about by these machines,

Riding Duels became the greatest show of speed and thrill,

as well as the symbol of freedom!

Now is the time, hold up your Tr*mp card. This future is yours to take!

Burning brightly. Like you're still watching an unending dream.

Your body yearns for it. A place where those who are strong are.

Shaky, wavering. What you're looking for is nowhere to be found.

But you're still seeking it. A place overwhelming with power.

The next battle is waiting for me.

I can hear the sign of new days coming.

Now is the time, hold up your Tr*mp card. This future is yours to take!

Whether your smile can shake this world is all up to you.

Write a new chapter in this story. After all, aren't you the hero?

A Reunion Across Dimensions

After withstanding each and every one of Shinji's fierce att*cks,

Sakaki Yuya has returned to Duel Palace with a huge comeback victory!

Yuya!

Yuzu!

That was a splendid Duel!

You did a good job shutting up that Commons Duelist who kept going on about his revolution and revolts!

Huh?

How dare you do that to Shinji...!

Our comrade...!

Sakaki Yuya is our enemy for b*ating Shinji, our leader!

That's right!

He's being controlled by the Tops!

He's an enemy who knows no shame!

Enemy?! What're you talking about?!

Hold on, folks!

We just had that pulse-pounding Duel...

Quarreling after will just ruin it, you know?

Tops and Commons should both be applauding the victor!

That is what this Friendship Cup is about!

Exactly!

Our blessings to Sakaki Yuya!

Shut up!

Get our enemy out of here!

Well done, Sakaki Yuya!

Shut up, Sakaki Yuya!

In order to climb up to where Jack is,

I prioritized winning over entertainment in that Duel.

And this is the result.

Instead of smiles, I created another gap between the Commons and the Tops.

Is this really okay...?

Damn it!

Roger!

Why is the Director of Public Security here!?

Well done.

I was amazed by that wonderful Duel.

Especially that Pendulum into Synchro Summon...

Such a valiant and elegant development that I couldn't contain a gasp of astonishment!

As expected of the man I had my eye on.

I see where you get your reputation.

Huh?

Hey, hold on!

What does he mean by "had my eye on"?!

Don't tell me you...

Have been connected with Security, Tops and their dogs from the start!

Back then, when you had been chosen as Jack's opponent out of the blue...

...is because you made some kind of backroom deal with them beforehand!?

Deal?!

At the roots of Sakaki Yuya's selection in being the King's opponent,

there's a dark connection with the Director of Public Security!?

Could this be a huge scoop!?

Ho-hold on a second!

What are you saying, Shinji!?

Besides, that was my first time meeting Roger!

And before that, we were always together!

I thought it was weird!

There's no way a completely unknown Duelist would be chosen as the King's opponent!

In exchange for getting to fight Jack, I wonder what kind of deal he struck?

What if they promised that even if he lost he wouldn't be sent underground?

And that kind of guy is going around preaching that this tournament is wrong?!

What a giant joke!

Well, Yuya?!

I already told you!

There's no way th-!

There's no way that's possible, right?

That kind of backroom deal...

Right?

I only believed in the possibility he possessed.

Possibility!?

It's true he was nameless.

But Sakaki Yuya has the power of Pendulum Summoning, which is unknown to us.

In order to know how great it is...

I thought that having him fight against the City's strongest, Jack Atlas, would be the best choice.

Of course the Duel ended with Jack's victory, but...

And now he's shown me that feeling of expectation I had for Sakaki Yuya back then wasn't wrong!

He becomes stronger every time he battles!

Even in this match, with his successful Pendulum into Synchro Summon, he has shown he is evolving as a Duelist!

Behold,

Plenty of the audience feel the same.

We only wish for one thing:

That you will be victorious in this Friendship Cup.

We want you to fight Jack Atlas once more!

I expect much from you, Yuya.

Wait a minute!

On the second day of the Friendship Cup, in the second match,

Sakaki Yuya has won in a splendid fashion, fulfilling Director Roger's expectations for him.

Why is Roger...

Taking Sakaki Yuya's side that much?

Does he plan to make him his ally?

Don't worry.

His is the son of Sakaki Yusho.

He shouldn't be that foolish...

Yuya...

Yuya has connections with the Tops?

That can't be!

Why...!

I thought that he would understand...

The feelings of us Commons being looked down upon by the Tops!

My feelings of being ridiculed by Jack!

That's why I gave him that card!

To fight Jack again, defeat him and give him back that card!

But he was in the loop with the Tops from the start?!

Cu-

Cut the crap!

What possibilities?!

What evolution!?

You're just admitted this was a staged race from the start!

A staged race?!

Oh boy! Looks like we have another problem on our hands!

If this is true, then it would be a huge incident that shakes the very foundation of this tournament!

For this I'll need to return to being Top City TV's Top Reporter, Melissa Claire,

And have a up-close and personal interv-

I think you are the one who should be "cutting the crap".

Shinji Weber.

What was that?!

But it's the truth though,

If Yuya's Duel was a staged race like you say...

That would mean that you lost on purpose, wouldn't it?

You lost to Yuya in an honest match.

You just don't wan to admit that, and that's why you spout this nonsense...

I...!

You're an eyesore!

Remove the defeated immediately!

Damn it, let go of me!

I'll remember this Yuya!

I'll never forgive you, you hear me!

Shinji! You've got it wrong, listen to me!

Crow will clear my grudge against you!

Shinji...

Shinji! I will definitely save you!

Don't give up when you're sent underground!

You got that, Shinji!?

Unhand me, please!

I have to go!

I've found Yuzu!

That's why I have to go where Yuzu is...!

Let him go.

Yes sir.

It's a scoop! A scoop!

Umm...

I get the loser leaving the stadium, but...

Is it fine for the winner to leave as well?!

Them not bringing him back to the penthouse...

Must be because he has connections with Tops!

I definitely won't abandon my comrades!

That's why I decided I would win!

I'll win and make everyone, Tops and Commons, smile!

I think I saw Sora around here...

Where... where are you?

Sora!

Hey! Where are you?!

Come out!

You're here right Sora?!

Sora!

Where are you?!

Answer me!

Sora!

Sora!

Hey! Sora!

Sora!

You were followed.

Huh?

This way!

Hurry!

Where's Yuzu!?

Is she here?!

Is she safe?!

Be quiet!

She's not?!

That...

You signaled that she was okay, right...?

We'll talk later!

Yuzu is safe.

You don't need to worry about anything.

I have her kept in a safe place.

That's a relief.

You saved her, didn't you?

Thank you so much!

But...

I'm really surprised!

I never thought you'd come to the Synchro Dimension!

Me too.

I never thought I would meet you in a different dimension, Yuya.

Back then, at the Battle Royale...

Battle... Royale...

We haven't met since then...

Back then, you had something more important than friendship.

Yeah.

I did.

We have an important mission to make the worlds one.

That feeling hasn't changed, even now.

Is that the reason why you came to Synchro Dimension too?

Does that mean the Academy is going to come after this dimension as well now?

Just like the Xyz Dimension...

They're going to do something as horrible as they did to Kurosaki and Yuto's homeland!

It's going to start here too?!

Don't tell me...

They're going to kidnap Yuzu!?

Dennis was from the Academy as well...

In order to kidnap Ruri, Kurosaki's little sister,

he infiltrated the Xyz Dimension.

Was that the same for you, Sora?!

You came to our dimension to capture Yuzu!

It wasn't!

But...

Information about Yuzu may have gotten to the higher-ups from my memories...

But I still swear...!

I didn't go to Standard to kidnap Yuzu!

And coming to this Synchro Dimension...

is to save Yuzu!

Save?

I am not Yuzu.

Don't tell me!

At that time, I had thought someone from the Obelisk Force had mistakenly kidnapped Yuzu...

Mistakenly?!

Don't tell me they thought she was Selena...?

Yeah.

Because the two of them exchanged clothes.

It would make sense if it was one of my comrades who had been ordered to bring Selena back.

Thinking that, I went back to the Academy immediately.

But no matter how much I searched...

I couldn't find Yuzu.

You let Hiragi Yuzu escape?

I learned that the Professor didn't want to bring back just Selena, but Yuzu as well.

For what purpose?!

Why is that Professor guy trying to gather up Yuzu and Selena...!

Answer me, Sora!

I really don't know!

I was just ordered to bring Selena back.

I was never told why...

But even if I don't know the reason...

The Professor's orders must be followed.

That is the rule of the Academy.

So I decided to return to Standard and look for Selena again.

I thought maybe Yuzu might still be in that dimension too...

That was when I learned that Akaba Reiji formed the Lancers combat unit to cross dimensions.

And that you and Selena were a part of it.

So then you also went to the Synchro Dimension...

Yeah.

And there, I heard Dennis' confession as well.

The reason he joined the Lancers was to watch over Selena, since he was involved in the Ruri incident.

I sent him back to the Academy to keep him away from Selena.

To the Academy?!

Then that means the fact that Yuzu and Selena are here will...

They probably already know!

Sooner or later, the Obelisk Force will come here.

To capture Yuzu and Selena.

Selena, like me, is from the Academy.

I don't plan to disobey the Professor's order to bring her back.

But Yuzu is...

You asked me if I taught Yuzu how to Fusion Summon out of friendship back then...

Yeah...

Back then, I denied it, but...

But really, I...

Since I was raised in the Academy, I didn't have any friends.

Everyone was desperate to be an exemplary soldier.

We didn't mess around or laugh with each other...

You and Yuzu were my first friends...

Sora...

That's why no matter what, I want to save Yuzu!

I don't want to hand Yuzu over to a prison like the Academy!

That's why I have this suggestion for you, Yuya.

I have Yuzu right now, and I want you to bring Selena there!

Selena...!

You know where she is right now, right?

What do you plan to do with Selena if I bring her to you?

I want you to hand her over to me.

In exchange, I'll give you Yuzu...

You should take Yuzu and return to the Standard Dimension!

You want me to abandon Selena?!

That's not it!

I told you remember? She's already from the Academy!

I'm just bringing her back!

To the prison-like Academy?!

I won't let Selena go to a place like that!

Yuzu as well!

I'll save Ruri too!

I won't let the Professor do what he wants!

I see.

Hiragi Yuzu is with that boy...

If Dennis has already been returned to the Academy...

It's only a matter of time before Yuri appears!

There isn't any time left to waste!

Apprehend the boy with Yuya immediately!

I will question him personally,

And have him tell me Hiragi Yuzu's location!

You need to understand this, Yuya!

There isn't any other way to save Yuzu!

If we take any longer, the Obelisk Force will come!

Then this city will become a b*ttlefield!

But if I take Yuzu home, won't the Obelisk Force come there as well?!

Then our hometown will become a b*ttlefield!

Our friends from the You Show Duel School will be exposed to danger!

I'll never let that happen!

I'm taking Selena to try and convince the Professor not to do that!

You already know he's not a person you can negotiate with, right?!

The Academy must be defeated.

If we're going to try anything then let's use or powers for that!

You need to realize this already, Sora!

Look out!

Yuya!

Go, Sora!

Protect Yuzu!

I'm counting on you Sora...

Why am I here...?

I'm sure I was Dueling with Sergey...

I still feel a bit dizzy...

Are you okay miss?

Huh? You're the girl who got thrown off the Duel Lane!

But I'm amazed you're fine after falling from that height...

I fell?

That's right...

Sorry I don't really remember that much...

That's right, did you meet Yuya?

Huh?

You know Yuya?!

Yeah!

Crow saved him after all!

Also Selena, Reira, and...

Huh? Who was the other one...?

Oh well! Just someone forgettable!

Anyways, Crow is a good person so he saves everyone!

Is that so...

That Crow guy saved Yuya and the others...

Woah!

We can't stay here like this!

Crow's Duel is about to start!

Come cheer for him with us, miss!

Huh? Me too?

But we can't get into the Duel Palace since we got caught sneaking in...

We can still watch it from the city, and we've got special seats ready too!

Of course, Security won't find us there, so come on!

Hurry up!

H-Hey! Hold on!

If what Shinji said is true, then...

Yuya is a traitor!

I can't trust anyone.

Now that it's come to this, I have to make a stand!

I will win this and defeat Jack!

It can't have been just Dennis...

There is another person from Academia in this Dimension...

I will make sure to expose every last one of them.

The Friendship Cup's third match of the third day is...!

Crow Hogan versus Kurosaki Shun!

Hey tell me, what is your favorite song?

Hey do you want to sneak out of here and go somewhere?

Let's talk without whatever we have that's making us blue.

Yeah! Wake up! Sleep!

Let's have the greatest day!

Well, Come on over!

No one should ever feel lonely!

The teachers don't know anything at all!

Your best friends don't know anything either!

You don't want to tell anyone?

But you should say something!

No need to be vague about it!

There's nothing wrong with being sad!

You don't want to tell anyone?

But you should say something!

You can tell me!

The you that no one else knows.

The teachers don't know anything at all!

Your best friends don't know anything either!

You don't want to tell anyone?

It's okay, say it.

You can let me know.

Sora!

Yuzu... I'll leave Yuzu to you!

Why is the security this tight around here?

I have to head back to where Yuzu is...!

Academia has made their way into all kinds of places.

If you're one of them as well, I will show you no mercy!

I will win this and avenge my comrades!

Shinji isn't the only one who can bind together Commons!
