It first aired Japan on February 20 , 2008 . Summary . After Nightshroud ' s defeat of Atticus , the Trueman clones move away , allowing Jaden and Jesse to step forward . Honest appears beside Jaden and is glad that his " master " Yusuke Fujiwara is alive . Jaden promises to save Fujiwara from Nightshroud and activates his Duel Disk . Jesse steps in to aide Jaden , and Nightshroud accepts his involvement on the condition that they play the Duel as a Battle Royal . No players may attack on their first turn , so each player Summons a monster and begins Set ting cards . Jaden comments that the last time he and Jesse Dueled together was against Yubel and Jesse says he ' ll never forget that Duel , as it gave him the power of the " Rainbow Dragon " . Nightshroud plays " Clear World " and four crystals appear above as the field is transformed into plains of darkness and the Trueman clones disappear . This card will inflict negative effect s to each player depending on the attribute of monsters they have face - up . However , Nightshroud ' s " Clear " monsters are treated as having no attribute , so the card only affects his opponents . Nightshroud reveals that a player that controls an EARTH - attribute monster must destroy one of his monsters during his End Phase , and a player with a WATER - attribute monster must discard a card during their End Phase . Jesse plays " Trap Strap " , allowing Jaden to Set his " A Hero Emerges " card after activating it , and Special Summon ing " Crystal Beast Sapphire Pegasus " to his field . Nightshroud reveals that a player with a WIND - attribute monster on the field cannot activate any Spell Card s . At this point Nightshroud realizes that Jaden and Jesse working as a team to defeat him will makes things a big problem for him in the duel , so he decides to turn them against each other by exploiting their darkness of heart . Knowing that Jaden may be able to resist by using Yubel ' s powers , Nightshroud reads Jesse ' s mind , attempting to find his darkness of heart to exploit it in an attempt to get him to turn on Jaden . However , he is unable to , as the " Crystal Beast s " and " Rainbow Dragon " block his mental path . However , he makes out a shadowed figure in the background - that of Jaden . Nightshroud determines that Jesse ' s darkness is that he wants to defeat Jaden in a Duel . Nightshroud states that Jaden and Jesse are very similar , and when they combine their powers , they can nearly create miracles . He says that this Battle Royal is Jesse ' s chance to defeat Jaden . Jesse admits that he does wish to defeat Jaden , and Summons " Crystal Beast Amethyst Cat " , using its effect to attack Jaden directly . Jaden counters with " Damage Interest " , giving Jesse back twice the damage he inflicted , while Jesse chains " Damage Capture " , increasing the ATK of " Sapphire Pegasus " by the amount of damage he took . However , Jesse uses it to attack " Clear Rage Golem " instead of " Elemental Hero Clayman " , much to Nightshroud ' s shock . Yusuke thinks that Jesse bluffed him about his darkness , but Jesse explains that he does want to defeat Jaden , but that isn ' t necessarily darkness , it ' s just something any Duelist would want . Jaden agrees that he would also like to defeat Jesse , but now is not the time . Jaden and Jesse continue to work together to thwart Nightshroud ' s strategies , even finding ways to turn the effect of " Clear World " into advantages . Though Jesse wants to defeat Jaden , he aides him to defeat Nightshroud first , in order to repay Jaden for saving him from Yubel , specifically the explosion caused by " Thousand Buster " . Jesse helps Jaden Fusion Summon " Elemental Hero Flame Wingman " Jaden uses it and " Elemental Hero Clayman " to successfully reduces Nightshroud ' s Life Points to 800 . Honest again begs Jaden to save Fujiwara , and Nightshroud counters by Summoning " Clear Vice Dragon " - the monster he used to defeat Atticus . Featured Duel : Jaden Yuki vs . Jesse Anderson vs .
