Yu - Gi - Oh ! ZEXAL - Episode 061 " Duel of Destiny : Part 1 " , known as " Disappearing Bonds ! Yuma vs . Shark , the Destined Duel ! ! " in the Japanese version , is the sixty - first episode of the " Yu - Gi - Oh ! ZEXAL " anime . It first aired in Japan on June 25 , 2012 , and in the United States on May 11 , 2013 . Summary . At Duel Tower Stadium , Mr . Heartland announces the start of the semifinals of the World Duel Carnival . A hatch opens on the stadium ' s floor and from it emerges a large tower , adorned with the WDC logo and several platforms . He calls the battlefield the Duel Tower . He urges the remaining Duelists to fight with all they have at this arena that pierces the sky . The Duel s will be as follows : Yuma vs . Shark and Kite vs . Vetrix . Caswell points out that Yuma and Shark have Dueled before - Yuma should know all of Shark ' s plays . Flip is skeptical , saying that Shark will know Yuma ' s plays too , and doubts that Yuma could remember all of Shark ' s . Cathy asks whose side Flip is on and angrily scratches him across the face with her cat - nails multiple times , leaving deep , red marks ( this scene is cut from the dub ) . Tori is worried about that was Summoned in Shark ' s Duel with Quattro , not sure if Yuma could defeat it . She urges Yuma to be careful . Heartland continues , hailing Yuma as a " miracle boy " who was virtually unknown before the tournament ' s start , but who managed to survive and enter the finals . Yuma enters the arena hopping around and falls onto one of the tower ' s lowered platforms . Shark begins to enter and Heartland announces him as one who was banished from the world of Dueling , but made his comeback from the very bottom , calling him " the avenger " . Shark ' s face is expressionless and Yuma wonders if there ' s something wrong . Their platform rises and Heartland says that only the winner will advance to the top platform . He wonders who will enter the final match out of these two and says the " curtain " is now raised on their Duel . Yuma is still wondering what ' s gone on with Shark and Astral speculates that its the darkness of the " Number " . Though Shark acquired a " Chaos Number " against Quattro , it was only possible through the darkness of the " Number " manipulating him . From a private box seat , Vetrix watches on TV . He wonders how the Duel will go , but says that the winner has already been decided . Yuma tells Shark to get a hold of himself , but Shark continues to ignore him while setting up his D - Pad and Duel Gazer . Astral tells Yuma not to let his guard down - if the " Number " is influencing him , his battle instinct will be at maximum . Yuma sets up his own D - Pad and D - Gazer and the Duel begins . Yuma goes first , Set ting a monster and a card . Astral comments that he ' s Set " Dododo Bot " and " Impenetrable Attack " . With 1900 DEF and the Trap Card ' s effect , Yuma will have a good chance of surviving the first turn . Shark Normal Summon s " Spear Shark " . It has 1600 ATK , so Yuma is excited . Astral tells him that Shark isn ' t naive . Shark attack s and Astral is shocked that he ' d be so reckless . " Spear Shark " launches a spearhead at the Set monster . " Dododo Bot " is flip ped and the spearhead rebounds off its shield , bouncing back at Shark and inflicting 300 damage . Still expressionless , Shark is thrown backwards . Heartland is shocked as well , saying he received damage as he attacked casually . Bronk says he ' s never seen Shark like this and Flip compares it to how Yuma used to Duel in the past . Caswell suggests that Shark may be expecting Yuma to know his plays , so using a different strategy could throw him off . Bronk asks if he means that Shark took damage on purpose then . Shark rises to his feet , Sets a card and ends his turn . Yuma says he could feel a strong fighting spirit in his previous Duels with Shark . Astral reminds him not to let his guard down and to be careful of that Set card . Yuma Normal Summons " Gogogo Golem " and switches " Dododo Bot " to Attack Position . Astral tries to call Yuma off , but he attacks " Spear Shark " with " Gogogo Golem " . " Spear Shark " is destroy ed and Shark ' s Life Points fall to 3500 as he ' s thrown backwards again . Yuma muses that he still hasn ' t recovered and orders " Dododo Bot " to attack directly with " Thunder Blade " . Lightning strikes Shark and his Life Points fall to 1700 as he screams in pain . Heartland wonders if Shark will stand after such overwhelming attacks . Yuma tells Shark to stand and come at him as he had in their previous Duels . The crowd begins to cheer Shark ' s name and Bronk says he can ' t believe Shark was damaged like that so easily . Yuma says that Shark ' s nickname came from the way he Duels - and he isn ' t showing it . A shark who is unwilling to fight is not a Shark . Yuma examines his hand , which contains " Rivals Unite " , " Gogogo Ghost " , " Half Unbreak " and " Traplin " . He Sets a card and ends his turn , urging Shark on again . As Shark tries to stand , he thinks to himself that he has forgotten why he is Dueling . Vetrix appears before him in his mind ' s eye and asks if he ' s forgotten . Shark address him as " Vetrix " and Vetrix is pleased that he at least remembers him . He says that though Shark ' s memories have faded , all will be fine if he listens to Vetrix . He tells Shark that is he Dueling for him . He calls Shark his puppet and his crest radiates out from eye . In reality , Shark violently shakes on the ground . Heartland wonders what ' s happening . Vetrix asks if Shark remembers who he must defeat yet . He adds an image of Quattro playing " Flaming Hell Blessing " against Rio . Quattro ' s form is replaced by Vetrix - and then by Dr . Faker . Shark says he remembers that name and Vetrix says he should - it was Faker that injured his sister after all . Shark believes him and Vetrix adds that there ' s one more person he must defeat - the one in front of him now . Faker ' s image is replaced by Yuma ' s , who laughs evilly . Vetrix says that Yuma has always tried to obstruct Shark ' s goal and that he worked with Dr . Faker . Shark finally gets to his feet , glowing with Vetrix ' s power . He tells Yuma that what he did was unforgivable . Yuma is confused and Shark says it ' s all Yuma ' s fault as Vetrix ' s crest glows on the back of his hand . Yuma asks if it ' s Vetrix controlling Shark rather than the " Number " . Astral responds that would seem to be the case . Vetrix speaks to himself , saying that you could say that - or more precisely , the " Number " that served Vetrix has fused with Shark , making him a puppet . Vetrix tells Shark to eliminate Yuma now . Shark Normal Summons " Double Shark " and activate s " Aqua Jet " , increasing its ATK to 2200 until the End Phase . It attacks " Gogogo Golem " , but Yuma activates his face - down " Impenetrable Attack " , which would prevent his monster ' s destruction this turn . Shark activates the " Shark Spark " Quick - Play Spell Card from his hand , negating " Impenetrable Attack " . The attack continues and " Double Shark " destroys " Gogogo Golem " by biting its arms off . Yuma ' s Life Points fall to 3600 . Tori yells Yuma ' s name and Shark reveals that " Double Shark " may attack twice per Battle Phase . It rips " Dododo Bot " apart , dropping Yuma ' s Life Points to 3200 and Yuma is knocked down by the force of the attack . The crowd cheers and Heartland compliments Shark for launching a counterattack when he was almost at the point of defeat , finishing with " Heart Burning ! " Bronk says Shark is acting completely different now and Caswell asks what ' s going on . Flip suggests that Shark was feigning the whole thing by acting like a " kitten " , causing Cathy to attack him again ( this scene is cut from the dub ) . Shark says that it ' s not over and activates " Upswell " , Special Summon ing " Spear Shark " from his Graveyard with its ATK reduced by 1000 . He orders " Spear Shark " to attack directly and avenge his sister , dropping Yuma ' s Life Points to 2600 . Yuma thinks Shark is much stronger when he ' s playing seriously like this , but Astral disagrees , saying he ' s even stronger than that due to Vetrix . Yuma asks if Vetrix distorted his memories and Astral says its likely - Vetrix had done something similiar to Trey when he Dueled Yuma . Shark Sets a card and adds that the ATK of " Double Shark " returns to normal now . Vetrix is impressed that Shark destroyed two monsters and got a direct attack so effortlessly . He adds that it ' s expected of the assassin he chose for Dr . Faker . Yuma says he must save Shark and Astral reminds him of the " Number " that Shark evolved . He says they must dispel Vetrix ' s influence before its Summoned . Yuma says he ' ll awaken Shark using victory and the crowd cheers . He Normal Summons " Gogogo Ghost " , who attacks " Spear Shark " . Shark activates his face - down " Zeus ' Breath " , negating the attack and inflicting 800 damage to Yuma as he control s a WATER monster . Yuma ' s friends are worried as his Life Points fall to 1800 . Bronk says Shark is Dueling flawlessly and Flip says that the real Duel has only just started . Yuma rises to his feet and Sets a card . Shark says it ' s no use - Yuma can ' t defeat him . He says he ' ll avenge his sister now . Yuma insists it wasn ' t him - it was Vetrix . Shark doesn ' t believe him and says that it ' s unforgivable that Yuma won ' t even admit his crime . He will send Yuma to hell with his own hands - and his " Number " . Astral points out that Shark already has two Level 4 monsters out . Shark Normal Summons " Shocktopus " and immediately overlays it with his other monsters to Xyz Summon " " in Attack Position . Vetrix tells him to bury Yuma alive . Featured Duel : Yuma Tsukumo vs . Shark . Turn 1 : Yuma Yuma draws . He then Set s " Dododo Bot " and " Impenetrable Attack " . Turn 2 : Shark Shark draws .
