Yu - Gi - Oh ! Duelist - Duel 102 " The Fatal Duel ! " known as " Very Confined Duel ! ! " in Japanese , is the 102th chapter of " Yu - Gi - Oh ! Duelist " in the English version and the 161th chapter of " Yu - Gi - Oh ! " in the Japanese version . This chapter was originally printed in the " Weekly Shōnen Jump " magazine in Japanese . Its first English release was in the " Shonen Jump " magazine . It has been reprinted in in volume 12 of Yu - Gi - Oh ! Duelist . Dark Yugi faces a Rare Hunter who use the Dark Magician , Pandora the Conjurer . Summary . Pandora tells Yugi that there is only one room for one magic - themed duelist in this world , and tells him that the winner of the Duel will earn the title of " Master of Magicians ! " and reminds him not to run from the Duel . Dark Yugi then accepts Pandora ' s challenge . Pandora tells Yugi that the room is too small to fight , saying that he has prepared a Duel Arena in the basement of the shop . He tells Yugi that Marik told him that Yugi might be dropping by , telling him that he had to set something special so Yugi wouldn ' t get bored . Dark Yugi is shocked to hear about Marik , the leader of the Ghouls and the the owner of the last Millennium Item . Dark Yugi tells Pandora to tell him where Marik is , Pandora replies that he ' s close , he could say that Marik ' s right in his head . Dark Yugi thinks that he ' s right since Marik has the power to possess his underlings and make them do whatever he wants . Wondering if Marik could be watching right now , they both enter a door to the Duel Arena . Yugi notes that the room contains all kinds of magic tools and occult paraphenalia , commenting that it looks like a bad dream . Pandora says that a conjurer has many powers from simple card tricks to the ability to bring nightmares to life . Both Duelists put their Decks on the table , and each Duelist starts to shuffle his Deck . Pandora says whether they can draw their Magicians or die horribly all depends on this moment . Dark Yugi tells Pandora that shotgun shuffling will damage his cards , though Pandora claims that he ' s used to shuffling in this manner . Dark Yugi decides to cut Pandora ' s Deck , and Pandora reminds Yugi that there ' s an old saying among gamblers : " Trust your friends , but always cut the cards . " Dark Yugi tells him that he doesn ' t make friends with Ghouls . Pandora then tells Yugi that he will show him something special that will prove that they ' re truly blood brothers , he pulls a chain , then shackles emerge from the walls and capture both players ' legs . Pandora tells Yugi that neither of them can escape , and informs him that he will witness the greatest show of the century : Pandora ' s daring escape from the very jaws of death . Pandora explains that this is a 100 - tooth carbide - tipped saw blade just like the one used to saw a woman in half in magic shows , saying that this Duel will use his house rules . Pandora continues to explain that the numbers marked on the cutter ' s rails are the player ' s Life Points , and that as the player ' s Life Points reach zero the blades get closer and closer until . . . chop . Pandora says that this is a " Nightmare Game " where the loser ' s body will be sawed apart . He then says that the box under the chair contains a key that will unlock the shackles on their legs , and the display on the box shows the enemy ' s Life Points . As it ' s designed to open when it reaches zero , in other words , only the winner can escape . Dark Yugi tells Pandora that he ' s crazy , but Pandora says that according to Greek mythology , Pandora ' s Box was created by the Gods to contain all the misfortune in the world , but when a woman named Pandora opened it , all the evil escaped , bringing evil , suffering and pain but one thing remained in the box : hope . Pandora claims that the key is their hope , but only for one of them . Furiously , Dark Yugi asks Pandora if a battle that kills people is fun , and Pandora replies that it is , because he ' s the one who will win . Yugi angrily tells Pandora that he ' s scum and vows that he will take him to the very edge of his life . The Duel begins , and Dark Yugi goes first . Pandora thinks that luck is on his side as he already drew the " Dark Magician . " Of course it wasn ' t just luck , as a professional stage magician , he knows more than 1000 techniques to cheat at cards . On this occasion , Pandora has used the " Stripper technique " . He had shaved off the edges of the card to make it just slightly smaller than the others : naturally , all three of his " Dark Magician " cards had been treated this way and when Yugi cut the deck before the Duel , the " Dark Magician " would be on the top . Dark Yugi starts his turn , he plays a face - down card and Summon s " Alpha the Magnet Warrior " in Defense Mode . On his turn , Pandora Summons " Legion the Fiend Jester " in Defense Mode . Pandora thinks that according to the Super Expert Rules he just needs to play one more monster and then he can sacrifice them to summon " Dark Magician . " On Dark Yugi ' s turn , he tells Pandora that instead of attacking he will play a Spell Card and that card is " Card Destruction , " which causes both players discard their hand s , resulting in Pandora discarding his " Dark Magician . " Dark Yugi tells Pandora that judging from his look of panic he guesses Pandora lost his " Dark Magician . " He notes that only a fool would Duel a conjurer without taking precautions against cheating , since someone who shotgun shuffles their cards obviously doesn ' t care about hurting them . Dark Yugi tells Pandora that he knew he would cut up his cards and mark them without thinking twice . Dark Yugi then reveals his face - down card , " Brain Control , " to take Pandora ' s " Legion the Fiend Jester , " and he then sacrifices them both to Summon his own " Dark Magician . " Pandora is shocked to see Yugi ' s " Dark Magician , " and Dark Yugi tells Pandora that he will teach him how his cards feel when he cuts them up . Featured Duel : Dark Yugi vs . Pandora .
