Summary . The chapter starts with a brief narration : " In every age , the world swarms with evil . However , a few brave young people have risen to stand against it ! ! They are known as . . . the Numbers Club ! ! " . The members of the Numbers Club stand in the terrace of a building , in the front of a helicopter , wearing custom attires . Then , Tokunosuke takes a microphone , and and introduces the members of the club . First , he introduces Tetsuo , as the Numbers Club ' s strongman , while Tetsuo holds a plate of curry and declares that eating curry " doubles his ATK " . Next , he introduces Takashi , as the Numbers Club ' s resident genius , while Takashi holds a kind of small stick , and declares he can analyze everything . Then , he introduces Kotori and Cathy , as the Numbers Club ' s two lovely ladies , after a small hesitation , while the girls question Tokunosuke about the pause . And finally , he introduces himself , Tokunosuke , as the man who knows what goes on behind every scene . Takashi comments with Tetsuo that Tokunosuke really got into that , and and that he guesses he liked the costumes , while Tetsuo says Tokunosuke sort of sound like the chairman over there , as he eats his curry . Then , they get into the helicopter , and move out on it , while Yuma and Astral run after them , yelling that they forgot them . While Yuma complains about the others , who are totally getting carried away , Astral interrupts him saying that he is afraid . Yuma is surprised at that , as Astral explains possession by the " Number s " amplify malice , and that he fears that the power the " Numbers " hold may not be a benevolent one . However , Yuma says that can ' t be true , to which Astral asks why he is so sure . Yuma answers saying that he doesn ' t know what the " Numbers " really are , but that if a ridiculously honest and serious guy like Astral is collecting them , they can ' t be all that bad . After a brief hesitation , Astral says he is not convinced by baseless logic , but that Yuma ' s baseless confidence is reassuring at times . Yuma then tells Astral he just trusts him , and Astral smiles . They then notice the Numbers Club ' s helicopter is landing , and hurry up . They then arrive at a restaurant called Poka Poka Restaurant , where people are making line to enter . Yuma complains saying that the place is right next to school , and that there was no need to go by helicopter . Tokunosuke notes Yuma and calls him . Tetsuo says that has to be the place , while Takashi agrees saying that is very suspicious , and Tokunosuke confirms it . Yuma asks what is so suspicious about it . Kotori answers saying that that place is always empty , and Tetsuo explains the food there is barely even edible . Yuma says he liked the food actually , and Kotori says he has no taste at all . Cathy then notes a " Number " card is framed at the back of the shop . Tokunosuke yells that that means the owner of the shop is a Number holder , an Tetsuo yells ordering the Numbers Club to charge . The Numbers Club then stand in front of the owner posing , as Tetsuo yells to him they have got him . The owner gets confused . Cathy and Kotori then tell him to put his " Number " on the line and Duel Yuma , while Yuma questions what she is saying . A while later , after the owner closes the shop , he explains he found that " Number " card down by the river a few days before , then the shop suddenly got popular . He further explains crying that it has been twenty long and hard years since he opened that shop , and that the " Number " brought him good fortune . He ends up by saying that he have done his best all that time , and that that ' s finally paying off . Tokunosuke says he doesn ' t think the owner is going to go evil on them , and Kotori says they can ' t take the poor guy ' s " Number " away , while Takashi says that was anticlimactic . After they leave , Yuma and Astral hang around the city , as Yuma asks Astral what he was going to do about that " Number " . Astral says that one can wait . Yuma asks him if he is sure about that , to which Astral replies saying he was happy to see that " Numbers " cards do not amplify human malice . He explains they must give evil power to those with bad personality , and benevolent power to those with good personalities . Yuma says that guy looked really happy as well . At that time , Yuma ' s stomach snores , and he decides to go back to the restaurant , and that he was going to pick up dinner for Akari and his grandmother too . At the restaurant , the owner looks to the " Number " card , and thanks it for the help again . At that time , Shark appears , and tells him to hand over that " Number " card , and that that power should not be in this world . Shark and the owner then Duel , but the owner is crushed by " used by Shark . The impact of its attack throws the owner out of the restaurant , spreading his cards on the ground , as Yuma and Astral arrive there . Shark picks up " " among the restaurant ' s owner ' s cards , as Yuma and Shark notice each other . Confused , Yuma asks Shark what he was doing there , but at that time , Kaito arrives there flying with Orbital 7 , and lands on the restaurant ' s floor , and tells Shark to hand over that " Numbers " card , as Yuma and Astral recognize him . Shark notes he is Kaito Tenjo , the Numbers Hunter , and Kaito says that as Shark knows his name , he seems to have became rather famous , as Astral is surprised on encountering Kaito there , and confused about Shark . Luna then appears , and tells Kaito that ' s because she told Shark about the truth . Kaito recognizes her , as he takes her hood off , and tells Yuma and Astral it ' s a pleasure to meet them . Astral , shocked , asks if she can see him , and she introduces her , saying that she is Luna , and that she used to assist Dr . Faker . Yuma confused asks why she is with Shark , if she is Dr . Faker ' s assistant . She answers saying that that ' s because she asked him to obliterate the " Numbers " . Kaito says to himself that then , that ' s their motive . Yuma explains her the power of the " Numbers " isn ' t bad , and that if a good person had them , it would be okay . However , Luna explains that " good power or bad power " isn ' t the problem - the problem is that power ' s very existence ; As such a power exist , people would fight over it , and the world would be destroyed . Yuma says that she doesn ' t know that , but she says that she does , and that the fight had already begun . She explains that Dr . Faker and Mr . Heartland plan to destroy the Astral World , and this one as well , and asks Kaito to confirm it . Kaito hesitates , as she laments that for his brother Haruto ' s sake , he couldn ' t disobey those two , and calls him a poor little puppet . Angry , Kaito yells that he doesn ' t need her pity , and that he would take her and Shark ' s " Numbers " right then , along with their souls , as he throws his Photon Hand towards them . However , Luna puts her hand over the amulet on her chest , which creates a kind of barrier covering her , Shark , Yuma and Astral , and reflecting the Photon Hand , as she says that tactic wouldn ' t work on her . Then , the four are instantly transported to the outskirts of Heartland City . Yuma asks where they are , and Luna answers saying that they are outside the range of Orbital 7 ' s power . She then turns around , and tells Shark they should leave , because it wasn ' t yet time to fight those two . Yuma and Shark stare at each other for a moment , and Shark tells him that he would wipe out his " Numbers " as well one day , as he turns around and leaves with Luna . Yuma asks what in the world happened to make Shark go after the " Numbers " , and Astral says that whatever the reason , he had joined the battle over the " Numbers " , and that they must be wary . Later , Yuma and the Numbers Club go to Poka Poka Restaurant . The owner mourns about his card , while Kotori says that his food tastes awful , and Tetsuo says that curry cuts his ATK in half .
