It first aired in Japan on May 25 , 2005 and in the United States on February 6 , 2006 . Summary . Jaden has a nightmare where he is in a Duel with a Shadow Rider with Syrus and Chumley ' s lives on the line , similar to his Duel with Nightshroud . This time , Jaden is defeated by a huge , powerful dragon obscured in shadow and forced to watch helplessly as Syrus and Chumley are killed . After Jaden wakes up , he thinks back to his past Shadow Duels and notes that he ' s no longer enjoying the game with such high stakes . Noticing Jaden ' s slump , Syrus and Chumley take him down to the hot springs to relax with Chazz . As they float in the water , Jaden and Chazz notice several Duel Monster Spirits flying over them . Ojama Yellow stops to explain that they ' re all going to a spirit festival . The students follow and are pulled into a bright vortex of light near the bottom of the spring . They awake in an underground cavern , back in their normal clothes , and surrounded by Duel Spirits . One of them approaches the boys and demands they leave . Ojama Yellow recognizes this spirit as Kaibaman , a monster that Seto Kaiba is rumored to have had made based on himself . Kaibaman challenges Jaden to a Duel , and if he loses , all of his friends have to stay in the spirit world forever . Believing Kaibaman to be a Shadow Rider , Jaden accepts - though he loses some confidence when Kaibaman warns him that he ' ll be using the real Kaiba ' s signature " Blue - Eyes White Dragon " . Ultimately , Kaibaman defeats Jaden with " Blue - Eyes Ultimate Dragon " - which Jaden recognizes as the monster that defeated him in his nightmare - and " De - Fusion " , but reveals that he is not actually a Shadow Rider and really Dueled Jaden in order to ease the latter ' s fears of losing .
