After his Duel with Yuma , Vector has kidnapped Ray Shadows and taken him to the Barian World . Yuma attempts to save him , only for the portal to close before he can reach it . He screams Ray ' s name several times in anger ( in the dub , Yuma demands to know where Vector has taken Ray ) . Kite flies in with Orbital 7 ' s jetpack function and lands behind Yuma . Tori asks what Kite is doing here . He asks Yuma what happened . Yuma tells Kite that Ray was taken by Vector , while Shark arrives on the scene . Yuma holds on to Kite ' s collar and begs him to help him find Ray . Kite snaps Yuma out of his anger by slapping him and tells him to calm down . Yuma says Kite ' s name ( in the dub , Yuma apologizes to Kite ) . Meanwhile , in the Emperor ' s Key , Astral reflects that Vector left " " with him and Yuma for a reason . The card glows with a bright light , and transforms into a key reminiscent of the sealed form of " Master Key Beetle " . The key flies off and embeds itself into the cockpit of the Different Dimension Airship . Astral detects a light and looks up to find a map . Outside of Heartland , Yuma ' s friends are locked out and demand him to let them in . Tori and Cathy are frustrated that Yuma is keeping secrets from them again . Flip says that at this point , they need to see if there ' s a flip side to the flip side of the situation ( Flip ' s remarks are cut from the dub ) . Inside Heartland Tower , Shark asks if Vector was the one who manipulated Vetrix and Dr . Faker . Yuma confirms it and adds that he thought that he destroyed Vector during the Duel against Faker . Kite says that Vector finally showed himself again ( in the dub , Kite adds that Shark is wrong ) . Shark gets up from his seat and declares that he ' ll chase down Vector to the ends of the Earth ( in the dub , Shark is angry that Vector messed with Rio and that he ' ll pay ) . Kite asks Shark how he ' ll find Vector in the first place and adds that he and the others don ' t know anything about the Barian s . Shark yells that it does not matter , and that Vector deserved a good beating . Kite chides Shark for having a simple way of thinking . Shark is offended and is about to lash at Kite , but suddenly , a siren sounds . Orbital 7 appears on a screen and informs Kite and the others about a sudden gravitational change on top of the tower . Kite asks if it could be the Barians . He , Yuma and Shark race towards the top of the tower to find out what ' s going on . The Emperor ' s Key glows , then releases a blast of yellow energy into the clouds above . An explosion occurs , then a large space craft descends from above and lands on top of Heartland Tower , with everyone , including Yuma ' s friends watching . Bronk and Yuma ask what that thing is . Kite clarifies that it ' s the same thing that he found while he was in the Emperor ' s Key . Yuma asks why it ' s out there in the real world . Astral appears in front of Yuma and the others . Yuma asks if Astral did all this . He tells them that they must go now ( in the dub , Astral says that he determined their destination ) . Yuma is surprised , and Astral tells him that Vector left his " Number " with them because it is the key to activating the airship . He continues that he got the coordinates on where to go . Yuma asks where it is , and Astral replies that it may be the Barian World . Yuma exclaims , " Barian World ? ! " , while Astral confirms it and adds that Vector was calling them on the airship ( in the dub , Astral says that Vector wanted them to come to him on the airship ) . Shark is pleased at this and agrees with Yuma and Astral . Kite disagrees , saying that this is too convenient . Shark taunts Kite , asking if he ' s scared , and if that was the case he can stay behind and watch the house ( in the dub , Shark says that Kite should hightail it out of here if he ' s scared ) . Yuma yells at them , telling them to stop arguing . He wants to go and save Ray by himself ( in the dub , Yuma does not mention going by himself ) . Astral says that the airship is currently filling with energy and that they will leave the next morning . Yuma and his friends walk home . Tori asks what that airship was and if Yuma knew where Ray was . Annoyed , Yuma yells that they needed the airship to save Ray . Tori and Cathy look at him quizzically , before Yuma realizes that he said too much and runs off . Tori angrily yells at Yuma to come back . Somewhere else in the city , Rio asks Shark about the airship ( in the dub , Rio asks if Shark is really leaving ) . Shark tells her that Vector is luring them to him ( in the dub , Shark says that he wouldn ' t live with himself if he didn ' t get to go ) . Rio says Shark ' s name and Shark elaborates that Vector was the one who ruined their lives . He declares that he ' ll beat Vector to a pulp , while Rio asks her brother if he ' ll do it for them and says that Shark isn ' t being honest with himself . Shark asks her what she means . Rio says that it ' ll be fine and that she ' ll go with him . Surprised , Shark asks why Rio would do that , while she replies that she wanted to come . Rio leaves to get ready . At Yuma ' s house , Yuma devours his dinner at a fast pace . He comments that tonight ' s dinner is really delicious . Lillybot comes in and offers Yuma seconds , while referring to him as " idiot " . Haru asks what gives and comments that Yuma is acting differently ( in the dub , Haru says that she makes this kind of dinner once a week ) . Yuma thanks her for everything ( in the dub , Yuma agrees and says that it always tastes great ) and asks Kari if she ' s busy for work ( in the dub , he asks her how she ' s doing ) . Surprised , Kari asks her brother what got into him ( in the dub , Kari asks Yuma since when did he care about her ) . Yuma gets up and starts massaging his sister ' s shoulders , much to her chagrin . He offers Haru a massage as well ( in the dub , Yuma extends this offer to Lillybot ) . After dinner , Yuma looks over the " V " cards that Ray gave to him . He mentally makes a promise to Ray that he ' ll use them to save him . Astral appears out of the key . Frantically , Yuma tries to hide the cards and says his name . Astral tells him that the fight tomorrow will be fierce . Yuma says that he already knows and reiterates that he ' ll save Ray and that he can ' t afford to lose . While Kari and Haru are washing the dishes , the former asks the latter about why Yuma acted differently during dinner and what he was planning . Haru says that he ' s just like Kazuma . She clarifies that Kazuma acted the way Yuma did earlier before leaving on a big adventure . Kari is upset and leaves to get Yuma , but Haru stops her . She tells her that all they can do is watch over Yuma ( in the dub , Haru says that Kari can ' t stop boys like Yuma ; all she can do is trust that they ' ll use everything she taught them to keep them safe ) . At Heartland Tower ( an aerial view of Heartland before Heartland Tower itself is cut from the dub ) , Hart watches out the window before he hears Kite coming in . He asks him if he ' ll leave to fight the Barians . Kite confirms it . Hart apologizes to Kite for doing it . Kite says that it isn ' t his fault , placing his hand on Hart ' s shoulder , and adds that he threw himself into the battle . He encourages Hart not to worry and that he won ' t lose , while also promising to return home . Hart nods and agrees with his brother . The next morning , Yuma jumps out of his bedroom window and tiptoes away from his house as quietly as he can . Just before he can leave , Haru calls out to him . Surprised , Yuma turns around and finds his family waiting for him at the door . Lillybot tosses Yuma some Duel lunch , while calling him " idiot " again . Haru encourages her grandson to go on his journey , while Lillybot warns him to be careful . Yuma is touched , and Kari tells him to be home by dinner . Yuma agrees , and says that he ' ll be off .

Shark says that they ' re here because of Yuma ( in the dub , Shark says that Yuma got here late ) . Rio greets Yuma with a " good morning " . Yuma asks why Rio is coming and calls her " Shark ' s sister " , irritating her ( in the dub , he calls her " Shark ' s baby sister " ; Rio snaps and tells him that she ' s not a " baby anything " ) . She softens up and says that she ' ll help Yuma . Yuma asks Shark if it ' s okay if Rio comes along . He says that Rio won ' t listen whether or not it ' s okay for her to come ( in the dub , Shark questions on whether or not he had a choice of Rio coming along ) . Yuma is excited that his friends are coming . Astral informs Yuma that the airship is ready for launch . Yuma declares the start of the adventure , but immediately gets confused on how to get on board the aircraft . A green light is emitted from the bottom of the airship , surrounding Yuma and the others in green rings . Astral says that the Flash Transfer will get them in . At the last moment , Yuma ' s other friends join the others . Yuma is surprised and asks why they ' re coming . Cathy says that it was cruel of Yuma to leave them out . Caswell agrees with her . Flip says that it ' s unusual for Yuma not to tell them anything ( in the dub , Flip says that excluding them is an outrage ) . Yuma says that he does not want them to get involved in this . Bronk tells Yuma that they want to save Ray , while Tori adds that he ' s one of their best friends . Yuma is touched that his other friends cared for Ray . Astral tells the group to board . Everyone is surrounded by a red light and are teleported into the airship ' s cockpit . The group appears in the airship , in awe of what is going on . Yuma asks if this is the cockpit , and calls it amazing . Astral says that he confirmed the landing coordinates and that the airship will depart . Flip tells the others that they can finally see Astral ( this is cut from the dub ) , while Rio is amazed that she can do so . Orbital 7 starts up the departure sequence . He confirms that everything is working perfectly . Astral asks Yuma to give them directions . Yuma is confused , but Kite allows Yuma to take charge ( in the dub , Kite tells Yuma to grab the glory while he still can ) . Shark urges Yuma to hurry up , while Tori encourages Yuma that he can do it . Yuma agrees to do so , while Orbital declares departure preparations as complete . Everyone goes to a station to control the airship , while Yuma does the countdown . Upon reaching " 1 " , the airship takes off , with Yuma exclaiming that they ' re flying . Orbital opens the gate to the Different Dimensions ( in the dub , Orbital adds that dimensional travel can be bumpy ) . Meanwhile , in the Barian World , Vector , Dumon and Mizar await Yuma ' s arrival . Laughing , Vector beckons Yuma and Astral to come to him .

Astral says that it ' s too quiet . Tori says that she brought along snacks for the group to share . Yuma tells her that his grandma packed him a Duel lunch and says that they should eat ( in the dub , Yuma says that Lillybot was the one who packed the lunch ) . An annoyed Shark asks if this is a field trip ( picnic in the dub ) . Before Yuma can open his lunch , a siren sounds and everything shakes , knocking everyone to the floor . Kite asks what ' s up with these shocks . Rio confirms that several unidentified objects are coming at the airship . She pulls up a screen and several Duel Monster spirits of " Shadow Ghoul " , " Worm Drake " , " Lord Poison " , " Dark Jeroid " and " Berserk Dragon " appear on it . Yuma exclaims , " Monsters ? ! " Shark , Kite and Rio report that the monsters are coming at them in swarms . Yuma asks Shark and Kite to come with him , while Rio and Bronk offer to come along as well . Outside the airship , the monsters start to attack . Yuma and his friends arrive , with Yuma Summoning " " , Kite Summoning " Galaxy - Eyes Photon Dragon " and Shark Summoning " " .

Yuma is confident that he didn ' t break a sweat . Astral says that this is strange , while Rio says that the monsters are not resisting . Shark asks what their aim is . Orbital contacts Kite and informs him that a black hole has appeared in the ship ' s course . Kite asks Orbital what he means before the black hole starts sucking everything in . Yuma braces himself , while Astral yells Yuma ' s name . Inside the airship , Tori and Cathy brace themselves as well , while Flip and Caswell are knocked back . Everyone outside the airship is thrown around as the airship is sucked into the black hole . Astral calls out to an unconscious Yuma , who awakens . Astral asks Yuma if he ' s okay . He confirms it and asks where they are . Astral says that he isn ' t sure , but it does not appear to be the Barian World . A voice from behind Astral declares that this is " Sargasso " . Yuma turns around to find Vector standing in front of them . Vector welcomes him and Astral , saying that he had been waiting for them . Yuma says , " You ' re Vector ! " Vector asks if Yuma had fun accepting the greeting his monsters gave him ( in the dub , Vector calls it a " reception party " ) . Yuma deduces that Vector was the one who sent the monsters out . Astral asks where they are now ( in the dub , Astral asks why Vector summoned them here ) and Vector reiterates that they are in " Sargasso " and adds that this is the last place they ' ll ever see .

Vector tauntingly says that Ray will not ever wake up , ( in the dub , Vector reiterates that Ray is " resting " , and that his rest will be an eternal one ) as his eyes glow pink . This devastates Yuma , who shouts that Vector is lying . As Vector laughs in triumph , Yuma remembers the first time that he met Ray after winning the World Duel Carnival . He also remembers the time when Ray insisted on joining him during the Duel against Girag ( Yuma ' s memories of Ray are cut from the dub ) . Yuma yells out Ray ' s name again in anguish .

Shark asks if Dumon is the first Barian he ' ll get to defeat and adds that he ' ll engrave his name to Dumon ' s mind . From another part of " Sargasso " , Kite is greeted by Mizar . Mizar challenges Kite to a Duel , putting the title of the true " Galaxy - Eyes " master on the line . Orbital flies in and Kite says that this is what he wanted . Vector taunts Yuma again , telling him not to be so sad . He says that they ' ll get to see Ray again soon because they won ' t be leaving " Sargasso " alive . Teardrops fall from Yuma ' s face as he rises and declares that he ' ll never forgive Vector and that he ' ll defeat him .
