" manga . The Duel took place in the Graveyard terrain . Events . Prior . Keith Howard snuck onto the Duelist Kingdom tournament , in order to get revenge on Maximillion J . Pegasus for an earlier Duel . He met up with Ghost Kozuka , Takaido and Satake and offered to help them in their Duels , so that the four of them could enter Pegasus Castle as the finalists . While searching for Duelists to defeat , they spotted Yugi Mutou and Katsuya Jonouchi , with their friends . Kozuka and Satake informed Keith that Yugi had beaten Seto Kaiba and worried that they would not be able to beat him . Keith suggested that they separate Jonouchi from the others and force him to Duel Kozuka in the crypt , where Kozuka ' s Zombie Deck would be strengthened by the Graveyard terrain . However after looking through his Deck , Keith said it would not suffice , so he gave him his own Zombie Deck to use . When Jonouchi left his friends to urinate in private , Kozuka , Takaido and Satake snuck up behind him and grabbed him . They took him to the crypt , where the disturbing scenery caused him to faint . Satake woke him up with a slap . Reflexively , Jonouchi grabbed him by the collar and got ready to fight back , but got frightened by the crypt and sat down to Duel . Kozuka imposed the wager of four Star Chip s . The Duel . 1st turn : Jonouchi Jonouchi Summoned " Axe Raider " in Attack Mode . 2nd turn : Kozuka Kozuka thought that he should have no problem beating Jonouchi ' s common Warrior card and prepared to Summon " Medusa ' s Ghost " , which should get a 30 % ATK increase from the Graveyard terrain . However , Keith stopped him and insisted that he play " Zanki " instead . Kozuka objected , as it was not a Zombie and would get beaten because it was weaker than " Axe Raider " . He decided to trust Keith and played it anyway . 3rd turn : Jonouchi " Axe Raider " attack ed and destroy ed " Zanki " ( Kozuka : 2000 → 1800 Life Points ) . Jonouchi celebrated winning the battle , but Keith thought to himself that everything was going according to plan . 4th turn : Kozuka Unsure why Keith got him to make the previous move , Kozuka got ready to Summon a Zombie this time , but was again stopped by Keith , who got him to play another non - Zombie , " Crawling Dragon " . Kozuka worried that the same thing would happen again , but Keith still advised him to do it , insisting he had a strategy . Kozuka played " Crawling Dragon " in Defense Mode . 5th turn : Jonouchi " Axe Raider " attacked and destroyed " Crawling Dragon " . 6th turn : Kozuka Kozuka Summoned " Crass Clown " . 7th turn : Jonouchi Jonouchi Summoned " Flame Swordsman " and got it to attack and destroy " Crass Clown " ( Kozuka : 1800 → 1350 Life Points ) . Jonouchi reflected on how he had relied on help from Dark Yugi in the past , but felt confident enough to trust his own instincts at this point . Letting his confidence take control , he offered to Duel all of Kozuka ' s companions after winning this Duel . 8th turn : Kozuka Kozuka drew " Call of the Haunted " and realized what Keith ' s plan had been . Keith ordered him to play it and explained that using cards that are already undead does not give a player the most out of their Graveyard , but there are better ways , like this . " Call of the Haunted " revived " Zanki " , " Crawling Dragon " and " Crass Clown " as unkillable Zombies ; " Armored Zombie " ( 1500 → 1950 ATK ) , " Dragon Zombie " ( 1600 → 2080 ATK ) and " Clown Zombie " ( 1350 → 1755 ATK ) . " Dragon Zombie " attacked and destroyed " Axe Raider " ( Jonouchi : 2000 → 1620 Life Points ) . 9th turn : Jonouchi Kozuka urged Jonouchi to get on with his turn , unless he is scared , in which case he requested that Jonouchi not start foaming from the mouth again . Jonouchi insisted that he is not scared , but a real Duelist , who does not run from Zombies . Jonouchi Summoned " Garoozis " and got it to attack and destroy " Clown Zombie " . However " Clown Zombie " was revived again by " Call of the Haunted " , with a further 10 % of its original ATK increase ( " Clown Zombie : 1755 → 1890 ATK ) . 10th turn : Kozuka " Clown Zombie " attacked and destroyed " Garoozis " ( Jonouchi : 1620 → 1530 Life Points ) . 11th turn : Jonouchi Jonouchi realized that even if he beat the Zombies they would only come back stronger , and wondered if this meant that there was no way he could win . Looking at the four Star Chips , he wagered , he thought about how losing would disqualify him from the tournament . He reflected on Kaiba calling him a loser and saying that he would be too afraid to Duel again . He decided that he could not give up or lose , otherwise he would not be able to face Dark Yugi again . He drew " Time Wizard " and thought it might be able to throw the Zombies into a time vortex . He activated it and Keith began to worry , having not expected Jonouchi to have that card . However , the " Time Roulette " stopped on a skull , causing " Time Wizard " to self - destruct , sucking itself and " Flame Swordsman " into a vortex of time ( Jonouchi : 1530 → 630 Life Points ) . Kozuka and his companions erupted into laughter , mocking Jonouchi for destroying his own cards . Jonouchi played " Kojikocy " in Defense Mode . 12th turn : Kozuka Kozuka prepared to destroy " Kojikocy " with " Dragon Zombie " , but Keith stopped him , and suggested that Kozuka use the chance to draw a new card and beef up the Zombie army instead . Jonouchi calls Keith a and asked who he was . He introduced himself as Bandit Keith , a top - ranked prize hunter in the United States , but did not expect to be well - known in Japan . Jonouchi remembered Kaiba telling them about Keith Dueling Pegasus . He remembered that Keith was a Card Professor , who had only ever lost to Pegasus . With Keith helping Kozuka , Jonouchi thought that he never had a chance of winning . Keith explained his plan to have him and his companions become the finalists . He claimed that people he defeats in " Duel Monsters " become afraid to look at cards ever again and Kozaku told Jonouchi say farewell to his cards forever . Under Keith ' s instruction , Kozuka Summoned " Pumpking the King of Ghosts " ( 1500 → 1950 ATK ) , which began to feed his Zombies , raising their ATK by 10 % of their original ATK every turn ( Armored Zombie : 1950 → 2100 ATK , Dragon Zombie : 2080 → 2240 ATK , Clown Zombie : 1890 → 2025 ATK ) . " Dragon Zombie " attacked and destroyed " Kojikocy " . 13th turn : Jonouchi Jonouchi Summoned " Armored Lizard " in Defense Mode . 14th turn : Kozuka " Pumpking " powered the Zombies by a further 10 % of their original ATK ( Armored Zombie : 2100 → 2250 ATK , Dragon Zombie : 2240 → 2400 ATK , Clown Zombie : 2025 → 2160 ATK ) . " Dragon Zombie " attacked and destroyed " Armored Lizard " . 15th turn : Jonouchi Jonouchi played " Glass Man " in Defense Mode . Kozuka remarked that Keith ' s strategy was perfect , but Keith said it was not perfect yet , but would be complete once he drew " Stop Defense " . 16th turn : Kozuka " Pumpking " powered the Zombies even further ( Armored Zombie : 2250 → 2400 ATK , Dragon Zombie : 2400 → 2560 ATK , Clown Zombie : 2160 → 2295 ATK ) . A turn is seemingly skipped or the ATK values are miscalculated ( Armored Zombie : 2400 → 2550 ATK , Dragon Zombie : 2560 → 2720 ATK , Clown Zombie : 2295 → 2430 ATK ) . " Dragon Zombie " attacked and destroyed " Glass Man " . 17th turn : Jonouchi Jonouchi Summoned " Tiger Axe " in Defense Mode . 18th turn : Kozuka Kozuka drew his next card and announced that he got " Stop Defense " . He and Set it on the field , ready to be activated next time Jonouchi plays a card in Defense Mode . " Pumpking " powered the Zombies even further ( Armored Zombie : 2550 → 2700 ATK , Dragon Zombie : 2720 → 2880 ATK , Clown Zombie : 2430 → 2565 ATK ) . " Dragon Zombie " attacked and destroyed " Tiger Axe " . 19th turn : Jonouchi Jonouchi began to lose hope , but remembered the promise that he and Dark Yugi made to come to the island to save Sugoroku Mutou and Shizuka Kawai . He vowed not to give up , as long as he could lift the cards . Declaring that he had to protect something important to him , he drew his next card , " Red - Eyes Black Dragon " . Jonouchi Summoned " Red - Eyes Black Dragon " in Attack Mode and Keith was surprised to see that he had such a rare card . Having come this far , Jonouchi vowed not to give up and announced that if he cannot use his cards to defend , he shall go out in a blaze of glory . " Red - Eyes " attacked and destroyed " Pumpking " ( Kozuka : 1350 → 900 Life Points ) . Because " Pumpking " was initially an undead card , it could not be revived by " Call of the Haunted " . turn 20 : Kozuka Jonouchi pointed out that without " Pumpking " , the Zombies would not get any stronger . However Kozuka said it did not matter as the Zombies are already strong enough to defeat Jonouchi . " Dragon Zombie " attacked and destroyed " Red - Eyes " ( Jonouchi : 630 → 150 Life Points ) . turn 21 : Jonouchi Jonouchi wondered what he could do now . His hand contained " Kung Fu Fighter Ultimator " , " Kunai with Chain " and " Salamandra " . Even if he combined " Kung Fu Fighter Ultimator " with the two other cards , its ATK would still be too low . Keith urged Jonouchi to hurry up and called him a loser , reminding Jonouchi of Kaiba calling him the same thing . He got mad at Keith for calling him that and drew his next card , thinking he is not a loser . He drew " Shield and Sword " , a Spell Card that switches the ATK and DEF of monsters on the field . He noted how Kozuka ' s monsters have high ATK and decided to gamble that switching it with their DEF might help . He Summoned " Kung Fu Fighter Ultimator " and activated " Shield and Sword " ( Armored Zombie : 2700 → 0 ATK , 0 → 2700 DEF ; Dragon Zombie : 2880 → 0 ATK , 0 → 2880 DEF ; Clown Zombie : 2565 → 0 ATK , 0 → 2565 DEF ; Kung Fu Fighter Ultimator : 700 → 1000 ATK , 1000 → 700 DEF ) . Keith noted that because the zombies have little brain power , they can instinctively attack , but cannot defend themselves , meaning they each had 0 DEF . " Kung Fu Fighter Ultimator " attacked and destroyed " Dragon Zombie " ( Kozuka : 900 → 0 Life Points ) , winning the Duel for Jonouchi .
