It was first printed in the 2 / 2007 issue of " V Jump " on December 21 , 2007 . It was later reprinted in volume 5 of Yu - Gi - Oh ! R . Summary . Dark Yugi draws , explaining to Yako that neither of them can hope for a satisfying Duel with the hands they have now . So he plays the Spell Card , " Card of Sanctity , " much to Yako ' s surprise . Each Duelist draws until they hold six cards . Both Gekko and Willa are surprised that Yugi did that despite Yako controlling the 3000 ATK " Barbaros . " Dark Yugi Sets a card , then he Summons " Beta the Magnet Warrior " in Defense Position , ending his turn . He confidently tells Yako to come at him with everything he ' s got . Yako cautiously draws a card , but he hesitates . Gekkos wonders what ' s wrong with him , he ' s acting strange . Kaiba chuckles , reminding Gekko that Yako thought his Wicked God was invincible , but he lost it to three face - down cards . Yugi has one on his field , and that single face - down card is causing him to hesistate . Clenching his teeth , Yako orders " Barbaros " to attack " Beta the Magnet Warrior " with " Tornado Shaper . " " Barbaros " charges forwards , lance extended , to Gekko and Kaiba ' s surprise . Dark Yugi smiles , calling it good . It seems his Duelist ' s soul is still alive . He plays his Set card , and " Beta the Magnet Warrior " fades away . Gekko realizes that Yugi used a relief escape to dodge the attack , as Dark Yugi uses the effect of his " Soul Barter " to Summon " Alpha the Magnet Warrior " from the Graveyard . He grins , and Yako growls inwardly . Yako Sets a card , ending his turn . Dark Yugi draws , Setting another face - down card , and then Summmoning " Blockman " in Defense Position , ending his turn . Gekko remarks that it ' s all Yugi can do to get defense monsters in place . And " Barbaros " is strong , but Yako ' s having trouble attacking . Kaiba tells Gekko to watch closely ; the tide of this battle is about to turn , any moment now . Yako draws , telling Yugi that he ' s coming . He Summons " Machine Lord Ür , " and then he activates a Spell Card from his hand ; his own " Polymerization . " He fuses " Beast King Barbaros " and " Machine Lord Ür , " much to Yugi ' s shock , Fusion Summon ing the 3800 ATK " Beast Machine King Barbaros Ür . " He explains that " Barbaros Ür " is almost a God , and it has inherited " Machine Lord Ür ' s " special ability . Dark Yugi is instantly wary upon mention of " Machine Lord Ür ' s " ability , as Yako explains that " Barbaros Ür " can attack a number of opponents whose total Levels are equal to or lower than its own star Level . In other words , since " Barbaros Ür " is an eight - star monster , it can take out both of Yugi ' s defense monsters at once . Furthermore , he activates his Set " Quick Attack " to allow his Fusion Monster " to attack on the same turn that it was Summoned . " Beast Machine King Barbaros Ür " attacks , its arm cannons cranking open as it attacks with " Flash Burst Shot . " Dark Yugi instantly counters with " Negate Attack , " and tornados suck in the blasts of light , leaving his monsters unharmed . Dark Yugi smiles , and Yako thinks that he can ' t chip away at him . He only has 98 Life Points left , but he might as well have 98 , 000 . He looks at Dark Yugi intently as Dark Yugi draws , thinking that he realizes now that even with an overwhelmingly powerful monster , a demigod , on his side , Yugi ' s too high above him . Dark Yugi sacrifices his " Alpha the Magnet Warrior " and he Summons " Dark Magician Girl . " Yako thinks that this is it . He ' s crossing over his wall of monsters . Both Dark Yugi and " Dark Magician Girl " look at Yako , and Yugi declares that here he comes . He activates " Blockman ' s " Special ability , splitting it into two Block monsters , and then he activates a Spell Card from his hand , " Magical Dimension . " Yako realizes what this is as Dark Yugi sacrifices his two Block monsters , and the coffin appears around " Dark Magician Girl , " and then opens to reveal " the ultimate wizard , the Dark Magician . " " Dark Magician " shakes his finger at " Barbaros Ür , " Dark Yugi declares that the " Dark Magcian " and his apprentice will fight together and destroy one monster . Crossing their staffs , the two Spellcaster s fire a hexagram of black magic that splits " Barbaros Ür " in two ; " Black Burning Magic . " As Yako stands there , his hair and coat blowing in the wind , Gekko is shocked that " Barbaros Ür " was defeated . Kaiba chuckles inwardly , not bad , he thinks . Willa , meanwhile , is completely dumbfounded . Dark Yugi smiles , telling Yako that he was a mighty opponent . Yako is surprised at the praise , and then Dark Yugi declares the last action of his turn , attacking with " Dark Magician Girl ' s " " Black Burning , " reducing Yako ' s Life Points to zero . Yako smiles , eyes closed , thinking that Yugi ' s power is magnificent . Dark Yugi tells him that it ' s over as the Duel Arena descends . Kaiba walks over to Yugi , thanking him for rescuing the KaibaCorp skycraper from these invaders . Dark Yugi says Kaiba ' s name . Gekko says his brother ' s name as he walks over to Yako , and Yako thanks him for making him finish the Duel . If he ' d let it end that way , he would have regretted it . Looking at " The Wicked Avatar " card , he admits that he ' ll always wish they still had Master Pegasus , but he has to cut the cord . As he says this , he tears " The Wicked Avatar ' s " card in two , and the pieces float towards Jonouchi , Honda , and Anzu . They call out his name , the boys still supporting Anzu . Dark Yugi is overjoyed to see them , and the Tenma twins watch them , with Yako musing that so that ' s the source of Yugi ' s strength . As the four friends run towards each other , Richie Merced , Depre Scott , and Mr . Croquet emerge from the elevator behind them . Yako smiles gently , as does Gekko , as they see Anzu trip and her friends run to catch her . With Kaiba looking on , Yako admits that he ' s glad he didn ' t erase to smiles . The group ' s schoolbags are returned to them by a sheepish Klamath Osler and a grudgingly saluting Kirk Dixon , Tilla looks in admiration at the Black Disk in her hands and raises it with a smile as Jonouchi salutes , Ted Banias , Mendo Cino , and Pete Coppermine watch from behind a wall , and Reiko Kitamori pushes Maico Kato ' s wheelchair as Yugi and his friends wave goodbye . Honda is forced to drag Jonouchi away as he shakes his fists at Kaiba ' s jet , while Anzu covers her ears and Yugi looks up into the sky . Yu - Gi - Oh ! R : The End . Featured Duel : Dark Yugi vs .
