Goodwin muses that Jack is playing at a One - Shot Run ; with no hand and face - down cards , this is Jack ' s last gasp . He tells him to fall to one attack from " Drago Ascension " and calls Jack a sewer rat . Jack tells him to think again , and he activates the effect of the monster that was sent to his Graveyard by " Final Tombstone ; " " Absolute King Back Jack . " He excludes it from the Graveyard and draws a card . If the card is a Trap Card , Jack can activate it immediately . Goodwin is initially shocked , but he comments that Jack really is a sewer rat if he ' s relying on luck this late in the Duel . Jack retorts that he ' s not relying on luck , as Duels are a shot at endless possibility , a moment - by - moment Big Bang . Jack is the King , one who is resented , hated and envied by every Turbo Duelist . As long as he keeps riding , the Duel will keep accelerating . Goodwin calls it nonsense ; " Drago Ascension " and its 12000 ATK are staring him in the face , and there ' s no way that Jack can turn this Duel around . Jack claims that he ' ll show Goodwin a Big Bang that will and he draws , declaring that it is the possibility of a King .

Part of his Duel Runner explodes as he falls over the gap in the track and his Life Points fall to zero . Down below in Satellite , Kalin watches the Turbo Duelists ' battle energy transforming into rays of light , fuel for the Ultimate God ' s resurrection , and he mutters Jack ' s name worriedly . Meanwhile , at the altar where Sect Injuin Dueled Akiza , Crow has released the captive D1 Grand Prix Duelists , as well as Mei , Sakura and Ran Kobayakawa from the cards that Lazar had sealed them into . Lazar himself is bound on the ground , and Crow warns him that he ' s still got questions for him . Lazar is furious at the " nobody ' s " actions . Leo and Luna approach the group , and Crow sneakily asks Leo if he came to settle their score from the boat . Leo quickly hides behind his sister and apologizes to Crow . Luna tells him to man up with no excuses , and he sheepishly agrees . Crow sweatdrops at seeing a crybaby brother and practical little sister as opposed to the children he was familiar with , noting their change . Luna asks where Yusei is , but Grieger points out the energy coming from Aerial Fortress Seibal . Giggling , Lazar explains that the light is energy , being channeled into the top of Seibal , to the tower where the Ultimate God slumbers .
