Part 2: 03x21 - Last First Duel

[bunniefuu]

(Yuma) Last time on "Yu-Gi-Oh! Zexal..."

This duel's over. You've won.

Huh? Say what?

Shark!

I lost.

But I never knew losing could feel so good.

You have your whole entire future ahead of you, Yuma.

I wish I was around to see it.

(gasps) No!

You were great duelists,

but even better friends.

Shark!

Good-bye.

It looks like your boy saved the day.

Yes. The three worlds are drifting apart.

We owe it all to Yuma.

Not saying you didn't lend a helping hand.

Thanks, Byron.

Oh, sure.

Good of you to remember.

It's not like pushing a planet was hard work.

Indeed.

Until next time, Kazuma.

Until next time.

And I hope it won't be too long.

(Yuma) I can't believe it.

Shark's gone.

(crying)

(Yuma) It's all my fault.

(crying)

But I don't wanna duel a monkey.

Huh?

Hey, Flip's back!

Huh?

I'm home.

I'm home!

How long have I been out?

(Astral) Shark's defeat has severed the fusion

between Barian World and Earth,

returning those that were defeated in our skirmish.

I made it.

But what about Shark?

I had faith that Yuma would get the job done.

Yeah. Same here. But it must've been tough on him.

Yuma! I knew you'd rescue me!

Because I'm your bestest buddy, right?

Uh, yeah, sure.

I'm glad you're safe and sound.

Yuma! Yuma!

Huh?

(all) Yuma!

Hey, guys!

Don't forget about me!

Bronk!

Heads up, Yuma!

Anna! The Sparrow!

The g*ng's all here!

(Yuma) I'm so glad you're okay.

I knew you'd never let us down, Yuma.

You totally b*at those Barian bums.

Thanks, guys. That means a lot to me.

Yuma. You did it. You saved everyone.

No, Heart.

You're wrong.

(Heart) What?

Not everyone, Heart.

I tried, but I wasn't able to save Shark

or your brother Kite.

Not even Rio.

If I never started dueling in the first place,

none of this would have happened.

Poor Yuma.

Huh?

What did you do, Astral?

Oh!

(roaring)


(Astral) Yuma, we have finally accomplished our goal

of gathering all Number Cards.

Their combined energies allow me to access to the Numeron Code,

the source of all creation throughout the universe.

The Numeron Code!

It gives me the power to rewrite

both the future and the past.

I shall use it fulfill my final mission.

That is my destiny.

But we finished our final mission.

You don't mean--

My missionTo annihilate Barian World.

Huh?

I thought you were done with that nonsense!

No.

Barian World is the enemy of Astral World.

It must be extinguished.

Oh!

Haven't you learned anything at all, Astral?

Shark sacrificed himself for us!

You don't have to fight anymore.

Your two worlds can be at peace.

Peace may have been your goal.

It is not mine.

Mine remains the destruction of Barian World.

Dream on, Astral,

because that ain't happening!

You disapprove?

You may be my friend,

but I can't let you do this.

And how do you plan to stop me, Yuma?

Do you dare challenge me to a duel?

You bet!

You must realize the foolishness of your endeavor.

Since I possess all the Number Cards, you cannot win.

Do you still wish to duel?

More than ever.

Very well. But when I win,

I will do more than destroy Barian World.

I will use the Numeron Code to erase your memories.

It will be as if we never met.

Agreed?

Agreed.

Very well.

We shall duel tonight at the courtyard where we first met.

Where's Astral? He just vanished.

He could've said good-bye.

(Bronk) Maybe he was in a rush,

like the time I ate mondo chili dogs and--

Bronk, stop sharing.

(thinking) Can I really build a deck that can b*at Astral?

I thought we'd always fight together as friends,

never against each other as enemies.

So now our first duel will also be our last.

Lighten up, Astral.

That's not the look of someone who saved the entire galaxy.

I can't thank you enough for all you've done for Yuma.

You should not be thanking me.

I am forcing your son to partake in a duel

that he does not desire.

Sounds heavy, but do what you gotta do.

I'm sure it's gonna be an amazing duel.

Do you not care that I broke Yuma's heart?

Maybe, maybe not.

Your carefree demeanor puzzles me.

Or maybe I know that there is

more to this duel than Barian World.

Uhh!

Gotta focus. Okay.

Not only does Astral have all the Numbers in his deck,

he also has a stackload of Utopias.

How can I counteract that?

Incoming!

Aah!

What's up, Yuma?

You weren't using that wall, were you?

Anna! And company.

We know that you're dueling Astral.

We shall not miss it.

I'll say.

We're super psyched.

We're here to help you out.

Thanks, but couldn't you knock first?

Yuma!

They better not be staying for dinner.

But I made enough food for seconds and thirds.

And fourths. And fifths. And sixths.

Kari, Yuma has made many lifelong friends,

and it's all thanks to dueling.

Yeah, you're right.

Maybe dueling's fine, I guess.

Say, maybe if you tried dueling,

you'd make some new friends, too.

It's not like your social life is very active, dear.

(groans)

As much as I'd love to sit and chat,

I don't have much time to build my new deck.

That is why we're here,

to offer you a cavalcade of cards.

See? In the end, Astral's deck will be tough.


Yeah, you need all the help you can get.

Our cards will soup up your deck.

And Astral will never see it coming.

I can't think of a more purr-fect plan!

It'll be like we're all dueling Astral together.

I guess so.

We heroes shall unite and fight.

What do you say, Yuma?

Thanks for the offer, but no.

I hate to be selfish, but I need to use my own cards.

This is one duel that I have to face on my own.

Sorry, guys.

(Bronk) Eh! No biggie.

All right, fine.

If that's the way you want it,

then that's how it's gonna be.

But don't come crying

when you lose by a bazillion life points.

Thanks, Bronk.

I'm gonna build the best deck ever!

I'm so feeling the flow!

I'm so excited for you, Yuma!

You get to duel your best friend.

It'll be tons of fun.

What's wrong?

Tori, listen.

Astral isn't who we thought he was.

I'll let you in on a secret, okay?

But promise not to tell anyone.

I promise.

I assume that you are ready to duel.

Oh, yeah! And I'm gonna win!

Yuma versus Astral.

I never thought I'd see the day.

This should be interesting.

I'll say. The kid's got plenty of moxie to duel Astral.

Yuma's bringing the boom!

Oh, I think Astral will win.

Good luck.

Show 'em your fangs, Yuma.

(thinking) They just think it's fun and games.

They have no idea what's at stake.

Quattro, Trey, we should feel privileged

that we get to witness this match.

But yet something about this duel gives me pause.

But I don't know why.

Let us begin. Ready?

Always!

Time for me to high five the sky!

Duel Disk, go!

Duel Gazer, let's roll.

(computer) Augmented Reality Vision Link established.

Let's duel. Let's duel.

Let's duel. Let's duel.

I'll go first.

My turn.

I draw!

Let's get this show on the road.

Here's Gogogo Golem!

And then I place three cards facedown.

You're up, Astral.

(thinking) Curious.

Why would he summon Gogogo Golem in att*ck mode

when it is better at defense?

My move.

I draw!

I activate the spell Parallel Unit.

This card copies your monster,

so I have a Gogogo Golem of my own.

Next, I shall activate Solid Overlay.

This spell substitutes for a monster when I Xyz Summon.

This should be good.

With these two cards, I build the Overlay Network.

I Xyz Summon!

Rise, Number Utopia!

Astral has already summoned Utopia!

Yeah.

This is a first.

I've always fought with Utopia, never against it.

Now, Yuma, I activate Double Rank-Up Magic Utopia Force.

I shall utilize Utopia's abilities to its fullest,

which is something you were never capable of doing.

With this spell, I summon two Xyz monsters

that are higher in rank than Utopia,

and then Utopia's two Overlay Units are divided among them.

First to my field is Chaos Number Utopia Ray Victory.

Followed by Number Utopia Beyond.

He's got three Utopias!

I am not done.

Go, Utopia Beyond.

Its special ability eliminates

all of Gogogo Golem's att*ck points.

Yuma's in big trouble! Yeah.

How's he going to crawl out of this mess?

So what?

I activate my trap Guardraw!

It switches my monster to defense mode.

And I also get to draw a card.

When Gogogo Golem's in defense mode,

Yuma can survive two att*cks


without taking any damage at all.

I gotta hand it to him. That was pretty slick.

Perhaps. But I doubt it will work.

Utopia Ray Victory,

att*ck Gogogo Golem with all your might.

By using one Overlay Unit,

Gogogo Golem cannot use its special abilities.

Furthermore,

you cannot play your spell or trap cards during this battle.

Uugghh!

Rising Sun Double Victory Slash!

Rising Sun Double Victory Slash!

I play a trap!

I activate my Guard Go.

You may have destroyed Gogogo Golem,

but it isn't staying away for long

because this trap resurrects it from the graveyard.

Welcome back!

Guard Go has another effect.

I get to invite two more monsters to this party.

Say hello to Dododo Warrior

and the one and only Gagaga Magician.

Impressive.

You have instantly tripled your defense.

But my Utopias will erode your wall of monsters.

Continue the onslaught!

Is that the best you got?

Far from it, Yuma!

I activate Rank-Up Magic Dark Force.

No way! He has another Rank-Up Magic?

When my Xyz Monster destroys your monster in battle,

I can send it to the graveyard

to summon two new Xyz Monsters with even higher ranks.

Utopia, make way for Chaos Number :

Utopia Ray V!

And Number Force Focus!

You've got me outnumbered four to one.

Four to one? Let me change that.

I activate Grave Chaos.

Since Utopia was sent to the graveyard,

I can summon a Chaos Xyz Monster that has the same rank.

I shall summon another Utopia!

Chaos Number Utopia Ray!

But why stop at four Utopias when I can have five?

Utopia Beyond uses one Overlay Unit to banish Force Focus

and bring Utopia back from the graveyard.

Lastly I also gain life points

equal to half of Utopia's , att*ck points.

Do you still hold the absurd notion

that you can win, Yuma?

Astral summoned five Utopias!

The kid's in a whole world of trouble.

I know. Astral has a huge advantage.

This doesn't look like a fair fight.

That's the understatement of the year.

Astral's kinda intense.

Actually, he's pretty scary.

What's gotten into him?

(Bronk) Yeah. Wasn't this supposed to be a friendly duel?

Astral's going to destroy Barian World?

That's right.

And I'm the only one who can stop him.

By winning our duel.

Everybody loves Astral,

so I don't want them to know the truth.

So let's just keep this secret between you and me.

(Yuma) I don't want to tarnish their memories.

It's not like he's gonna erase theirs, only mine.

Utopia, att*ck!

Destroy Gogogo Golem!

You wish!

When Golem is in defense mode,

it can't be destroyed once per turn.

But my others can att*ck.

Utopia Ray,

att*ck Gogogo Golem with Rising Sun Chaos Slash!

Your end is near.

Utopia Ray V, att*ck Yuma directly!

Rising Sun Star Slash!

Uhh!

Yuma's taking a b*ating.

I know. And it doesn't look like Astral cares.

Astral's playing hardball.

Is Yuma okay?

Yuma.
