Summary . Seto Kaiba and Zigfried von Schroeder continue their Duel . After Seto destroys one of Zigfried ' s Valkyries with his " XYZ - Dragon Cannon " , Zigfried manages to draw " Nibelung ' s Treasure " and equip Seto ' s Cannon with " Nibelung ' s Ring " , preventing it from attacking and also destroying Seto ' s Deck with each passing turn ( due to the effect of " Nibelung ' s Ring " ) . Using Zigfried ' s " Fortune Chariot " , " Valkyrie Zweite " attacks Kaiba and whittles down his Life Points . Zigfried removes Kaiba ' s first " Blue - Eyes White Dragon " from play with his three Goddess cards and destroys another with the effect of " Nibelung ' s Ring " , but Kaiba makes a comeback when he summons his second " Blue - Eyes " back from the Graveyard ( using " Monster Reborn " ) .

On his next turn , Kaiba manages to avoid the effect of " Nibelung ' s Ring " with " Graceful Charity " , allowing him to put his third " Blue - Eyes " in the Graveyard so he can remove it ( along with " Pitch - Dark Dragon " ) from play to summon " Chaos Emperor Dragon " . Seto ' s new monster sends every card the players control on the field and in their hand to the Graveyard , inflicting 1500 damage to Zigfried . However , he regains them all when he uses his " Magical Alms " and " Final Light " cards . Seto makes another come - from - behind move when he draws himself a brand - new hand with " Card of Demise " . In the end , his three " Blue - Eyes " , his " Luster Dragon # 2 " , and " Chaos Emperor Dragon " are summoned back to the field through " Dimension Fusion " . Zigfried ' s " Valkyrie Brunhilde " destroys " Luster Dragon # 2 " and " Chaos Emperor Dragon " , then avoids destruction from Kaiba ' s first " Blue - Eyes " . However , she is eventually destroyed by Kaiba ' s second " Blue - Eyes " , paving the way for his third " Blue - Eyes " to attack directly . Kaiba is able to win , but Zigfried declares it isn ' t over . Featured Duel : Seto Kaiba vs . Zigfried von Schroeder . " Duel continues from previous episode .
